somebody tried to draw a Valentine's heart

maybe it is not so constant exposure after all ?

this could be interactive advertizing,
u follow bitcoin - they serve you mining equipment adds,

someone else could get adds about weight loss...

If those big ask walls are there to stabilize the price and "protect" us from boom-bust

then down side is that this is buying time for hostile legislation to come before wider adoption.

My believe is that higher price would be very beneficial for coin distribution because there would be more news (first about the boom and than bust)
it did not hurt us the last time it happened...

what do you think ?

so, u no short

I meant periods where daily average price doubled

like period starting from somewhere in November 2011 where price was 2 usd , and somewhere around new year when price passed 4

there were a few periods of doubling in first half of 2011, when price started at 0.3 usd and finished at 30 usd

those kind of periods, where daily average price is doubled at the end of some time interval,

so, list should have starting date and average price of that day and ending date and average price for the day

can we have a list of 5

shortest periods for price doubling

downloaded  bitcoin-0.7.1-353-g3afefd8-win32-setup

win 7, 64 bit
i7
8 gb ram
laptop

uninstalled version 0.7.2. the last one from bitcoin.org

I did not delete folder or any files from where older version was

installed this bitcoin-0.7.1-353-g3afefd8-win32-setup

it sees my wallet as encrypted and locked (like it should be)

started at
15:43
ventilator is not silent, but moderate, with ocasional overdrives that last 5 to 10 seconds


the message says "reindexing blocks on disk"
 
it never went over 8 active connections,
I connect to internet through nearby hotspot,
map port using upnp is checked by default,
connect through socks proxy was unchecked by default
i did not touch that at all
I don't know how to portforward bitcoin and never did that, but I noticed the green bar on the last released

version 0.7.2, and it oscilated between 19 and 36 connections the other day when I looked


15:53 -->  168000 blocks
16:03 -->  193500 blocks
16:13 -->  209300 blocks
ventilator started spinning loudly non-stop
after 200k blocks

16:23 -->  213000 blocks

blockchain was last updated on my disk with version 0.7.2 , a few days ago, so last 300 will be updated with this

new version,

16:33 --> 216200 blocks
ventilator did not slow down from block 200k

16:37 --> 500 blocks remaining


16:38 -->  239 blocks remaining, message changed to "synchronizing with network"
ventilator slowed down significantly, almost silent, ocasional overdrives of few seconds

16:41 --> 95 blocks remaining

16:43 --> 10 blocks remaining

looks like it is ok

I shut it down with end process tree

after 15 sec i started it again
it took about 30-35 seconds to open gui

connected to someone within 5 seconds.

I dont like the idea of sending coins into it.

armory 0.87
16:47 started scanning blockchain
16:50 armory shows the same number of blocks as bitcoin gui...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


bitcoin was turned off for at least half an hour before restart,

after computer restart,
I manually started bitcoin (option to start with windows is turned off)
it got stuck at "verifying block database integrity"
and after a few minutes error message prompted on screen
"corupted block database detected please restart the client with -reindex"

how to even do that ?


I guess I will delete all from bitcoin folder and start actual full blockchain download
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
laptop was turned off

after start, bitcoin opened with no problems
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

today I deleted all files from bitcoin folder,
started download
after 15 minutes it processed 102k blocks

after 30 min 120k blocks
after 1 hour 133k
      90 min 139k
2 and half hours 155k
4 hours    185k
6 hours    206k
7 hours    214k


finished exactly after 8 hours

I started armory 0.87 offline icon from start menue while bitcoin still had 350 blocks to verify

I pressed a button in armory to go online,
it started scanning the blockchain, finished showed current block count, and it said it is connected,
but watching wallets had balances -- btc and I was not able to create unsigned transactions

I don't know if this is armory or bitcoin problem

after I turned armory off, and started the regular icon of armory (not the one with word offline in name)
armory scanned and connected and balances were in place, and I was able to create unsigned transactions

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

today again bitcoin "stopped responding" on startup,
nothing unusual was done yesterday, or forced shutdown, or settings changed

but, after a minute it did actually start, connected, loadaded blocks

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a way to actually lock coins in wallet with 2 different passwords coming from 2 different input devices

some functionality like yubikey brings to mtgox account

I don't want to call devs out, just can't wait for it

and,

what is going on with multisignature txs ?

he has to change this :

Frankly, I don't know how to use Bitcoin, but here is an address you can use to send some bits:

    16oZXSGAcDrSbZeBnSu84w5UWwbLtZsBms

If anything shows up in that wallet, It'll help me in my education. If someone can educate me on how better to receive bits, please post it in the comments below, or use the contact form.


that sounds very irresponsible
if I had a gazillion of coins, I would not send even 1 there out of respect to Bitcoin,

does he have access to that address,
does he even have that wallet,
does he have it encrypted (password known to him/already forgotten, lost)

18.1

even customs officers would love it on you

we can talk about bitcoin, but you can buy your own

maybe, but I answered "no" because it is too valuable to be given, even 1 btc,
I have them physical, but no way I would give that away

woow, I just tried it with a friend,
it really works

p2p e-mail, I have been looking for this for a long time.

Does it require the receiver and sender to be online at the same time like retroshare does ?

aww fuuk

are people really so shortsighted backwards and forwards ?
I can't believe this

he who forgets, lives through it again
