<fluffypony> yes

That's not possible, because Dash uses a deterministic build process so everyone can check the source code and verify that the distributed binaries are indeed build from this public source code.

And, yes, I check this for each public release. My second name is paranoia.

How should they report the income on their taxes?  Write it off as charity?

Donations. Same as selling software as "Donationware". Add the donations, subtract the expenses and put the result into your tax declaration.

No idea, it just shows the result of "mnbudget show", and for whatever reason this server did never get this proposal.

I just switched to its backup instance which works fine.

Can someone point me to more information about how to vote on budget proposals if you have a masternode.. ?

Looking at the way the proposals are listed it shouldn't be too hard to include voting in the GUI client... maybe just a year or three with my uber coding skillz Wink There's lots of stuff could be included in clients though, ...

Actually it wouldn't be TOO hard to add voting to the wallet, what I did here can also be done within the wallet.

I still hesitate because there are already a lot of things in the wallet which confuse beginners, and the target group of this feature would be quite small.

Convince me  Grin

Maybe its time for Evan or Tungfa to start cleaning up some of the Google search results :

Just post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1205043.0

Knowing how the Google index works this will change the result  Grin

that just feels so organic

edit: you should have a donation addy in your sig.

I have one, but only over at dashtalk.org  Cool

I was walking down memory lane on this fine day and came across a piece I've not seen a while:


Enjoy the show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egDcPjd0JyI



I was also thinking - can somebody make an UPDATE?


this is good  - VISUAL

Unfortunately that's not possible any more because the re-base from Litecoin to Bitcoin removed most of the 2014 references.

I could render a video for 2015, but that wouldn't be the same...

it would still be cool - hint hint - nod nod - poke poke
[in my best Monty Python voice]

Just for you: https://youtu.be/MNCm-6GCCSE

It starts at the day when I submitted my very first commit to GitHub. It's a bit busy at the beginning because of the Bitcoin devs still hanging around at that time. Gets better after a while.

(sorry for the low video quality, I have no idea what Youtube did to my video :-/ )

Edit: link points now to the official Dash TV. My original upload will be deleted in a week or so.

If collisions were discovered in one of the eleven sha3 candidate algorithms used in Dash, how would that be useful to an attacker?

I don't think that a collision is useful in real life, but his statement is true.

Let's say you brute-force X11 for collisions, and that c1, c2, ..., c11 are the number of collisions each algorithm has (which might be zero, but nobody knows yet).

The number of collisions you'll find is (c1 + c2 + ... + c11) minus the cases where the result of a collision of one algorithm would produce a collision on one or more of the following algorithms.

Of course the difference is negligible because we all most probably won't live long enough to find even 1 collision in one algorithm, and even if we'd find one it would be of no practical use, but the difference is definitely there.

************************
EXCEPTION: St12out_of_range

That happens when a v11 client gets a v12 message which it doesn't yet know.

and error compile. help fix this - Fixing libtool for -rpath problems.

That's normal, no need to worry.

I wonder where and how you got the sources. Did you use "git clone https://github.com/dashpay/dash.git" from the official sources?

To check the current votes : ./dash-cli mnbudget show

Masternode status

The backup is cool.  I guess I was thinking it did a backup on startup, which now that I think about it wouldn't make sense.  If it backs up at shutdown, then we are good. 

Right now it does a backup at startup. The reasoning is that if your wallet should corrupt your wallet.dat file you'd have a backup before that happened, not a backup of an already corrupted file.

Of course having a backup during shutdown and/or at the end of a mixing session also makes absolutely sense...I'll think about this.

If I generate a new receive address on a wallet and send funds to it.  Then load an old wallet, it still gets the transaction.

The new wallet takes the new address from its keypool (which holds 1000 addresses).
If this 'new' address was already in the keypool of the old wallet the old wallet will display the transaction as yours.
If not (because during mixing your wallet ran out of this 1000 addresses and generated new ones) the old wallet just doesn't know that the new address is yours, thus won't display it.

Same technique as Bitcoin BTW, but since Bitcoin can't mix a wallet rarely runs out of addresses.

maxconnections=20

does not work for me - hummmmm...  ever
I still get 30-40 connections

thoughts?
will be fixed in v12  Smiley

EDIT: hopefully  Grin

I have a simple fix locally, shall I create a pull-request?

Trivia challange.
I like to spot what country's host their first ever masternode on the big map, and recently the first
ones appeared in Iran and South Korea, can you spot a new country joining the network ? (big prizes for the winner)



Nice !

do you have a country listing of all Masternodes ?!?

I feel as we are getting scammed  Evan dash dev would have had this sorted very quickly. Seems like this dev is letting it free fall with no sign of him . Even a little sign of the dev would show willing. I'm out

Remember right now Cachcoin is more or less a one-girl-business, and vertoe actually HAS a life and family.
Sometimes a vacation and some quality time with your family is more important than anything else.

The same would have happened with Darkcoin during vacation time some 15 months ago...fortunately Darkcoin/Dash isn't a one-man-show any more, today there's a team of talented (and did I already mention, good looking) developers to support it.
I'm pretty sure that with the help of the community Cachecoin will get there.

And don't get me wrong, I don't own a single Cachecoin, and when vertoe would show up at my doorstep I'd be the first one to slap her precious ass because of the way HOW she left Darkcoin...but that's the past. Better look into the future!

Hit "Enter"
Grin

When you guys start your wallet in linux, on the CMD-LINE

./dashd

Do you have to just let it sit for a long time? or what

I've always had to run ./dashd and then close the CMD-LINE window
reopen the CMD-LINE window
so I can continue to whatever I want to do like ./dashd masternode start

thoughts?
Mangled Blue, start it with -daemon (or put daemon=1 in the config-file) and you'll be able to continue in your current shell/cmd.
