1721  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Call for donations for Bitcoin Android on: July 20, 2011, 09:10:41 AM
Both apps still have serious bugs, transactions getting stuck in "sending", blockchain not updating, crashes. As soon as these  basic things work ill consider a donation.
1722  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Sad about MtGox on: July 20, 2011, 12:24:48 AM
I wanted to reply to the "i loled @ mtgox" topic, but i thought i would share with you all the experience with MtGox i had over the past months.

As some of you may know my account was compromised at the time of the 2 exploits, right before the database got leaked. 23 Btc were transfered out of my account by a tor-ip to an account that is known to be a hacker account (same bitcoin address as in the allinvain hack), you can read up more on the specifics in that topic.


After much discussion they asked me what i found a reasonable solution. Since there is no hard proof on either side where the security issue went wrong.
After i proposed a 50/50 solution, i take 50% of the loss, they cover 50% of the stolen coins (11 btc!!!), it took again a few weeks to get a reply back where they told me they couldn't do that because i could be the hacker himself...
WTF..!? are they totally insane? i would make a drama over 11 btc if my 'secret hacker account' holds over 25000 btc?!

After this idiotic claim they told me they could offer free trading for a month and a free yubi-key, under the following conditions:
- File a police report.
- Submit my pc's for digital investigation by police.
- Send both the report and a copy of my passport to Japan.

Soo... here's how you handle this and get away with it...
1. Offer your client to come up with a reasonable solution.
2. Dismiss the solution with unfunded arguments.
3. Propose your own worthless solution under impossible conditions.
4. ?
5. Profit.

I just think MtGox is a really bad business solely out to make quick money and doesn't give a damn about it's users or bitcoin as a system.
So i'm very happy that TradeHill is now accepting SEPA transfers.

Just wondering, why is the bitcoin/dollar ratio for  these things so way off to the current exchange rates?
1727  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Android Bitcoin Wallet on: July 13, 2011, 03:07:48 PM
Well, that didn't take too long...
After sending a few btc the application crashed, when i start it now i get a white screen for a few seconds, then black, then the force close message.
I tried rebooting and cleaning cache, nothing helped.
Strange thing is, i have the same issue with bitcoin-android after i sent some coins. At first i thought it was caused by my barcode scanner, but i replaced it without result.

Here is the bug-report info:

Looking really good. Althoug i'm not too happy with the bottom warning "You *will* lose your bitcoins associated with this wallet".
That makes it pretty useless imho...
Why would anyone use a wallet when i know it's gonna be lost soon...?

I think it's one of the first things you should consider when developing this, make sure the basics work and are safe.
1729  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Small transactions without transaction fee on: July 13, 2011, 11:29:04 AM
Just wondering, which client are you using? I'm unaware of one that shows connections.

[edit]
Nevermind, just found it Smiley
Tried 0.01 myself with 0.0005 fee, worked perfectly.
1730  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is spamming Youtube with bitcoin tags and posts and Why? on: July 12, 2011, 09:01:24 PM
I have a feeling this is intended to do exactly what is happening, bitcoiners flagging the videos as spam...
What is the single thing that relates all these videos and can be 'scanned' on by youtube...?

Exactly, the term "bitcoin" ...

So, they are trying to get anything that involves "bitcoin" in the title or description banned... just my theory...

haha, get your tin foil hat back on.
...

It's on, don't worry about that. Smiley

Just restore a backup of your wallet and rescan, it will put your unbroadcasted coins right back to where they belong, in your balance display.
1733  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: An Idea to help make Bitcoin work. Towards Critical Mass on: July 09, 2011, 03:45:14 PM

I think google maps can only display a max of 4000 'blobs' anyway, we've long passed that count.
