I understand for valid address coins are gone

For invalid address coins wont go through right ? Will the transaction fail in that case ?
The client will tell you the address is invalid and will do nothing

If you are using a poorly written third party wallet, and it doesn't validate addresses, will nodes refuse to relay a transaction that attempts to use an invalid address?

A Bitcoin address is the base58 of this:
Quote
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssss
Where red is the receiving "account" (it's all you need to send money) and blue the hash of red (blue is totally useless in the protocol, it is only used in clients, it never goes to other nodes)
E.g. red of 171vsZ2rd9xXafKiyCdcjZoad9BkXCE4B is 0123456789012345678901234567890123456789
If a third party client doesn't check that blue is indeed the hash of red, then two cases:
  • If the error is in the red part, then the money doesn't go to the right person
  • If the error is in the blue part, then the money goes to the right person because the coordinates are only contained in the red part

Let's assume that your client is broken/doesn't check the hash and that you want to send money to 171vsZ2rd9xXafKiyCdcjZoad9BkXCE4B
If you type 172vsZ2rd9xXafKiyCdcjZoad9BkXCE4B, then the money goes to an unknown person
If you type 171vsZ2rd9xXafKiyCdcjZoad9BkXCE4C, then the money goes to the correct recipient

Please take a picture of yourself while holding a paper with "bitcointalk" and today's date written on it, just to verify it's really you Kim. If you are able to put a shoe on your head when taking the photo you can leave the piece of paper out.

Yes, shoe on head please.

Ripple threads are out of control in the altcoin section, it would be nice if they were contained in a subforum.

What's wrong with JackJackWallet? Even JackWallet or WalletJack sounds nice to me, and I'm not even an American, English is my 1.5st language.

I volunteer and allow you to use my name. heheh... royalty free. I just want to be famous for 15 minutes or whatever.
I have nothing against them, but it seems the latter carries a negative connotation.
(American) English is my mother tongue, and I agree that JackWallet carries a negative connotation.  I don't want someone to jack my wallet.  "WalletJack" seems less negative, but I'd still stay away from it,

And JackjackWallet is definitely too pedantic. As would be Gavin-qt or EtotheipiClient.

Bitcoin addresses are case-sensitive. Bitcoin addresses should be copied and pasted using the computer's clipboard wherever possible. If you hand-key a Bitcoin address, and each character is not transcribed exactly - including capitalization - the incorrect address will most likely be rejected by the Bitcoin software. You will have to check your entry and try again.

The probability that a mistyped address is accepted as being valid is 1 in 2^32, that is, approximately 1 in 4.29 billion.

I still have no name for the project but an alpha version will be ready really soon. Not much features are here (see OP), it's an alpha version of the core.
Anybody interested?

Requirements:
  • Python 2.7
  • BSDDB (included in Python but broken on OSX)
  • PyQt if you want to try the GUI


The first signing address is 1Azzay7wH1FnDE5yZMPU57y75SuT4DbGc7.
I will sign the SHA256 of the first file with this address, then once you're sure the file is ok it will check by itself when updating.
