Dark Wallet needs $50k to finish its development and testing Why do they need $50k for that? are they hiring a software firm? Are they using the money to compensate themselves for the work they put in? Their "dark wallet" is a browser plugin, so it's probably connecting to a third party server. Unless the plugin directly connects to the bitcoin network, it's far less secure and anonymous than the satoshi client. A quick skim of their indiegogo page shows more idealism and buzzwords than any actual planning. This is mirrored by the massive gap between what they want for bitcoin (anonymity, resistance to censorship, anti corporation/goverment), and what they've done (browser plugin wallet). tl;dr: a group with more ideals than work wants money |

here's an idea: stop using blockchain.info's wildly inaccurate "estimated confirmation time"

what if i multiply that 1 btc to 20 btc. lets say i go on a "insane" run.
Then if you're in Canada you don't pay taxes on gambling wins. I don't think that applies for foreign gambling winnings. |

1. find high res bitcoin image (yes, there's a high res filter on google images) 2. rescale using photoshop, no paint, for good quality. 3.  4. profit |

does it crash with the original datadir?

My own wallets saldo has never been the same as the saldo on my address on "blockchaininfo", how is this possible?
this sentence is impossible to parse. |

In your bitcoin data directory, delete the "blocks" and "chainstate" (you can backup before deleting, but there's nothing important there). This will reset all downloaded blocks and allow bitcoin to redownload the blockchain.

I'm enrolling for another month.  |

I think you realy want to ads the ppcoin...
it uses blockchain.info api for getting transaction info. it would be difficult to add any alt-coin support without heavy modifications to the code. |

i didn't get my payment for last month. Thank you for the payout. Always appreciate the extra income I would like to re-enroll into the program once more. I've also changed my signature from link B to link C. |

Anyone know how to add the Blockchain API to it?
1) read documentation for blockchain.info 2) examine advertisement script 3) make changes if you lack the skills to code, pay someone to do it. |

- I don't think that with 120 weeks behind and I was at 24 weeks behind that it will still download that from the beginning and I'm at 7.88 GB, did you got my point ? - Another question, if you don't mind , if I'm going to format my PC, what is the CORRECT way to have a backup of the chain blocks ? As it's impossible everytime I'm going to download 12+ GB. Thank you copy these folders: %appdata%\Bitcoin\blocks %appdata%\Bitcoin\chainstate %appdata%\Bitcoin\database after you restore the folders, run "bitcoin-qt.exe -rescan" |

Thanks.
So if I'm not mistaken, sometimes it will "sync" and sometimes it will "reindex", am I right ?
reindex only occurs if the stored data is corrupt. |
|
|
|
Is this because it's downloading the remaining chain blocks
yes. the blockchain is currently 12.8 gb. |
|
|
|
Could you please guide me how to do this, as I can't figure how to work with command lines.
Thank you
1. go to the folder where bitcoin is installed 2. shift + right-click -> open command window here 3. type "bitcoin-qt -reindex" into the command window (without quotes) and hit enter 4. wait for bitcoin to rescan. this may take 30 minutes. edit: correction by Raoul Duke |

it's allowed. see bold parts: Payments (transaction outputs) of 0.543 times the minimum relay fee (0.00005430 BTC) are now considered 'non-standard', because storing them costs the network more than they are worth and spending them will usually cost their owner more in transaction fees than they are worth. Non-standard transactions are not relayed across the network, are not included in blocks by most miners, and will not show up in your wallet until they are included in a block. The default fee policy can be overridden using the -mintxfee and -minrelaytxfee command-line options |

no promo.. its hard to ask and not mention the name... I just find it unbelievable and fun that I can trade BTC with leverage.. bitfinex did this a year ago |
|

there's a "no forced transaction fee" fork that removes all fee requirements. if you use it, please don't come back asking why your transaction has not confirmed.

then it's most likely your peer's speed. bitcoin doesn't know who the fastest peer is, so it chooses at random. if bitcoin chose a slow peer, you get slow speed. also, it's worth mentioning that each block has a different size. blocks from when satoshi dice was popular, for example will take longer to verify. thus it might seem "slow" from a blocks/minute perspective.
But if the peer speed is low then why is it using tons of CPU? see the second explanation. |
