Yes I am using Qt.
When you say use PYWallet can that program "point" to my wallet.dat file?
I only have one wallet on one dekstop machine and one blockchain wallet.

There are actually four total transactions that did not get processed. I did not do anything unusual just played a few rounds of SD.

This is a losing one

Hello,
I have a wallet that I use for Sat Dice with a very small amount of BTC. I am showing 1.85x BTC unconfirmed since Feb 17-18th.
When I look at the transaction ID I do not see any information. Is it just gone at this point? I am not sure what else to check.

Thanks@! Grin

The term Buyer Beware has never been more applicable than when dealing with avalon.

I have no idea of what you are trying to say or how anything you are saying pertains to a pre-order of a product. I don't care about what nerd pet names people came up with for past projects. This is about the technology, products and order process now.

What I see on this forum are people that have pre-ordered and are trying to convince themselves it was a good idea. If they see something they don't like or makes them uncomfortable they resort to personal attacks including the vendors representatives.

Good luck with whatever you decide.
I can explain myself better: I realize that you are a professional relational database administrator, a kind of guy that always wears his pants with both belt and suspenders. The most daringest exploit it your business career was where you put the log files on the ramdisk and run "UPDATE TABLE" without "WHERE" clause and then kept doing "TRUNCATE LOG WITH NO_LOG" to avoid overfilling the ramdisk.

I'm not saying that it is anything wrong with the above.

But the humanity needs two kinds of mariners: (1) those who sail the seven seas and (2) ferry operators. You are the second kind. BitSyncom asked for orders from the first kind. Your areas of expertise don't overlap in any meaningful way.

I hope I'm clearer now.

So you think you have it all figured out by looking at my account name? Not that it matters but I know nothing about relational DB's. You are clearly making this a personal attack against me and all I am doing is posting an observation of the marketplace. If it makes you feel better about your investment that's cool although I don't know why you would be so worried what I have to say. I certainly would not speculate on what you do or your expertise by your username on forum.  Huh

Again good luck on whatever you decide to do. Bitcoin is a hobby at best for me but perhaps it means the world to you.  Grin

Let me start by saying I am a total newb when it comes to Bitcoin and this website. I am not a newb when it comes to running a business. My entire reason for even giving a shit about Bitcoin is the ASIC technology. I don't gamble, want items secretly in the mail, need to tip whores etc.
Maybe you aren't a newbie in the business, but you've still remained remarkably naive.

Bitcoin is a new frontier; very much like petroleum exctraction was some time ago. Go rewatch Dallas or Dynasty on fast forward, but this time with understanding of the business undercurrent in those shows. At least in Bitcoinia nobody is kidnaping people's children, setting factories on fire, etc.

Really, learn some history. eldentyrell named his FPGA bitcoin operation "Tricone mining". Actually go to the library and research the conditions which oil drillers had to accept to lease tricone driling bits. Yes, lease and not buy.

Most of you calling themselves businessmen or customers are just whiners, wannabes or effete mamma-boys. Do you really think that you have it hard?

I have no idea of what you are trying to say or how anything you are saying pertains to a pre-order of a product. I don't care about what nerd pet names people came up with for past projects. This is about the technology, products and order process now.

What I see on this forum are people that have pre-ordered and are trying to convince themselves it was a good idea. If they see something they don't like or makes them uncomfortable they resort to personal attacks including the vendors representatives.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

I have also not been a part of any of the drama leading up to this point with any vendors. I can tell by a few post some are already angry about delays and promises. After reading about the technology I was convinced (not overwhelmingly) that I was going to purchase Avalon products. I do not know if I can recoup my cost but I didn't care because like many of you...  

I have enough money to make the purchases
I want to be part of the Bitcoin process and community
The thought of having something turn key appealed to me
It's just plain cool technology
There were 3 primary times to enter the game so far and this is one of them

My observations thus far..**Note these are not necessarily directed at one vendor**

I am very surprised that any representative for a company would even think about speaking towards clients and potential clients in the fashion that is displayed on this site
The audacity for any vendor to put up demands such as no returns, Bitcoin only purchasing Huh especially when there are already issues with the first "batch"

In my personal opinion there are a couple of reasons I can think of that you would succumb to these demands

You just have money to blow
You are blinded by virtual greed and are not thinking clearly
You have some "inside" information that the rest of us don't
You think these devices are going to be worth a high dollar value for a long period of time  Huh

Dicking around on the internet is one thing but when you are buying a product from a vendor especially is the US you deserve protection. If you pay with Bitcoin you have nothing

What if they can't verify the transaction for some reason?
What happens if the devices never ship?
What happens if the devices do ship and yours overheats, breaks, has a firmware issue.... whatever?
Ask yourself what other item on Earth you would buy with Bitcoin site unseen no matter what the performance promises are?
What happens if the order gets delayed, you have your money tied up and another vendor starts shipping?
What risk are you taking versus the risk the vendor is taking?


Any time there is an issue in any business the best way to handle it is to be 100% forthright. It makes the clients stay calm and the vendor look genuine. You can obviously see this is not the case with this technology. There is no logic in creating false reasons to keep things secret.

Maybe I get into this maybe I don't. At this point I can tell you for sure any vendor that basically wants me to pay for R&D with Bitcoin will not be getting a cent from me. Bitcoin certainly have a purpose but this is not it.
If it matters to anyone my budget is 5K to basically be able to say " I was part of that" someday.

I wish you all well whatever you decide; just think about it.

Theres nothing "Organic" about it
Anyone with <30gh is going to be aimed at a pool once the ASIC's "hit the floor"
GPU miners are only going to stay if they get free electricity, and will (or so i've heard) Switch to LTC mining instead

If you had the only ASIC device that you knew of would you still pool it from day one?
211  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: If you had an ASIC device now would you put in a pool? on: January 28, 2013, 01:10:45 AM
Thanks for the answer. So you think the current pools will organically change on their own. Makes sense.
212  Other / Beginners & Help / If you had an ASIC device now would you put in a pool? on: January 28, 2013, 12:17:43 AM
Or do you think there will be ASIC only pools created? At some point the pool theory just circles back around doesn't it?
213  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reusing bitcoin addresses? on: January 28, 2013, 12:08:35 AM
It seems you may want to have several addresses if you are getting coins from multiple sources. At least then you know who and what has come in.
