95 accounts for trust bombing? Really?

Shocked Why don't we ban as he/she is clearly spamming. I mean there is ban for post_spam and PM_spam, so why not a ban for "trust_spam"? This will increase if no action is taken and of course, never want a trust moderation. The trust feedback can stay there.

This seems like a reasonable approach, I think.  Salty?

Hello tspacepilot. Looking a bit i found a tool that will be useful for what you do. It is simple to use, you will find a tutorial.

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bitcoin_Address_Utility

Hope that helps, greetings.

Hey freemind1,  I actually did run across that.  I was hoping to avoid having to download and install mono, but you're right that this looks like the right tool for the job (with the exception of the awkward OS).

Thanks for the tip, I may have to learn how to use a C# compiler (on GNU/Linux)for this, but maybe I should do that anyway.
2223  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / convert hex keys to WIF [solved] on: April 06, 2015, 07:46:28 AM
Hi folks, I've finally got my keys exported from my protobuf wallet dump using bitcoinj's wallet-tool.

Now I'm finding it surprisingly difficult to convert these guys to the WIF format that I'm used to and that I find useful.

While I'm not ready to be posting the actual keys in the forum, they look like hexadecimal to me:


ECKey{pub=022d42139..., priv=2b...}

So, what's the nice and easy tool (or the settings for that tool, I found matja's bitcoin-tool on github and I thought it was going to be what I wanted, but I didn't yet find the right parameters to get it working) that will help me to convert my hex private key to a base58check that starts with a 5.

Thanks in advance!
2224  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: dump keys from protobuf format on: April 06, 2015, 07:14:56 AM
This is kinda like a conversation with myself, but I'm posting here as I make progress for posterity as I saw many queries like this on google but no easy answers.

It turns out you *can* very easily export your private keys from a protobuf wallet using the wallet-tool from bitcoinj (no need to build your own app).  You say:

$ ./wallet-tool dump --dump-privkeys --wallet=/path/to/protobufwallet

and you'll see a keys block in the output.  Now, the last step in my particular journey is to conver the hex-dumped keys to bitcoinbase58.  But that's another topic so I'm locking this one (solved and closed).

Hi, please change my payout address to:

Thanks!


Hi folks, I've changed the bitcoin address I wish to use for the campaign (and other forum stuff).  I've updated my profile info.  Can I be sure that you'll pay to my new address this week based on this?  Or should I send someone a private message to remind to update the spreadsheet?  Thanks!

Hi, post your address in this thread with a request to change it. Just for the record.

Thanks Smiley

Thanks to you!
2226  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: dump keys from protobuf format on: April 06, 2015, 06:07:51 AM
Actually, it looks like I may be able to use the "wallet-tool" program that comes with bitcoinj to do this job.  I'm currently playing around with that as a first step rather than trying to reinvent a rather complex wheel.

Enjoy I guess you two Tongue Glad you got some sort of resolution.

Mist, I have no idea why you seem so agressive on this one.  There are a huge number of people on this forum who found the whole "bits" thing to be a large, poorly motivated distraction  (EDIT: I'm too lazy to look up the threads, but there are quite a few and they grew to quite a length).  I'm not condoning everything sed has said or done ITT but I'm really not sure why it would bother you if some people prefer not to rename bitcoin. Sad
That wasn't meant to be aggressive in the slightest, was legit happy that you made it more enjoyable with a simple 4 lines of code. More power to ya Cheesy I understand that you don't exactly condone sed's actions, and I am in no way grouping you in with him. I don't have as much of an issue with it as it seems, I just don't really understand why some people are so adamant about not renaming it though. There are some cases where it works, and some where it doesnt. Moneypot happens to be one of those cases, but that's fine. I'm pretty done with this whole convo. Lets get some positive talk up in this bitch.

Also, I like your nuts tspace Wink


Sounds good man.  I think I'm probably too old to understand the proper parsing of the various emoticons that folks use to experss themselves these days.  Smiley
Wow, doesnt even acknowledge my compliment about his nuts. How rude. Cheesy

Ha, I guess I didn't know how to say it out loud, but I'm always glad to hear that my nuts have satisfied.
2228  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / dump keys from protobuf format [solved] on: April 06, 2015, 05:20:40 AM
Hi folks,

I've got a backup from my Bitcoin Wallet for Android (Andreas S.) and I've decrypted it using openssl.  So, because of some changes to how Bitcoin Wallet works, I was surprised not to find a plain text file, but instead I have a protobuf file.  What I want to do is export the private keys.  I understand that if I dig around in bitcoinj I can apprantly "write a small app" do to do this (<http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/29586/how-do-i-extract-my-private-keys-from-a-protobuf-wallet>).  But, given that Java isn't my favorite language, I'll probably take way longer than I should to do this and given that someone must have already solved the problem, I figure it's worth asking here:

Does anyone have any recommendations for getting this done (preferably with GNU/Linux command line tools) quickly?  Or more quickly than writing my own Java app?  Looking for tips on speeding this up for myself.  To give an idea of where I'm starting from if I go the Java rout, I understand the concept that I will need to make a class and make a static main and have my main open my file and then run some static methods somewhere in the guts of the bitcoinj library on my file.  So you can see there's a lot of detail I'm going to have to go searching for.  Can you guys speed me up?

Try that and check the specs. You can run it offline and it defaults as a closed grid option so it's a blank slate that will run on anything, really.

Sorry. VW fangirl. Tongue

I basically only run GNU/Linux these days.  I was surprised to see "for windows" after PHP, MySQL.  Smiley  What does VW have to do with it?  There must be some advert that I didn't see or something.

2232  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitcoinPoker.gg - 1BTC Freerolls - 200mBTC Freerolls on: April 06, 2015, 03:57:47 AM
You guys are thowing down these huge freerolls every couple of days but I wonder if you'd get more traffic on your site (and more tables playing etc) by running small freerolls more often.  Like, sealswithclubs in the early days ran hourly freerolls.  What I imagine that would mean for you guys might be players with some new chips every hour looking to join a table.  Once there are tables constantly running, people will want to buy in to play at those tables.

This may have changed since I last checked in, but last time I looked there weren't any tables running at your site, just people waiting for the freeroll in a day or so.  Perhaps micro freerolls very frequently will get you some traffic to get things really started.
2233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: High Fidelity successor to Second life virtual world considering bitcoins! on: April 06, 2015, 03:54:58 AM
I used to play Second Life in the past...even spent a lot of money to buy myself a land area of my own...paid a builder to build me a couple of buildings...wanted to do some virtual estate business...but the problem was...that I had to leave the country for a while which mean't I didn't have time to focus..and I kind of forgot about it...when I got back my account was suspended..and they asked me to pay extra money just to retrieve and reopen my account. Which kind of turned me away from Second Life.

I've owned a couple of sims/islands in SL until I finally opted out in 2010 and looked into OpenSim but I know what you mean about spending a ton of money on it. Even virtual world hosting (SL) is being disrupted. SL charged 1600 per set up and 295 a month and made millions. OS came along and offered it for free so VW host now have been forced to drop their prices because it's possible for anyone to run a grid on their home computer and port into the hypergrid. It's gone from 300 a month for 1 region to options like 5 regions for 19 bucks a month! Now with OAR and IAR (inventory/object archive) downloads. Most of the content has become open source, full perm freebies.


Gotta love disruption of monopolies, eh?  Grin

I'm always running cheap-o hardware so I think I never had the best experience on sl for that reason too.  Although, I never spent any money on it, I just popped in when I pleased and had a litle fun.  Still, yes, I agree you that disruption of monopolies is awesome and if I had better hardware, I'd probably be looking into some of that opensim stuff you're talking about.

2235  Economy / Gambling / Re: MoneyPot.com -- The Social Gambling Game on: April 06, 2015, 03:20:32 AM
I finally tried it.  The animation is pretty neat.  I worked pretty good for me in chromium.  However, in firefox it just froze up.

I thought someone said I could change "bits" to satoshis somewhere in the interface.  I couldn't find it though.  The "bits" thing makes it seem like play money or some new altcoin.

Also, I ended up with 0.51 "bits" which I think is 51 satoshis.  Can I gift this to someone on the site somehow?  Is there a tipping mechanism?  It seems like 100Sat is the smallest amount you're allowed to bet.

no tipping mechanism yet in moneypot as it will encourage begging in chat , and also you can use shiba for the calculation to satoshi, although i forgot the command, it will be wise for ryan to actually add a FAQ list for shiba's command

FYI 1 bits = 100 satoshis

Yes, yes, I know what a "bit" is said to equal.  I'm not wanting to go down that road again (it seems like 20% of this thread has been dedicated to fights about "bits").  I just thought that there was an option in the UI to make it say something normal like Satoshis or uBTC.  It's all good, I must have misunderstood.

Like I said, the animation was pretty neat.

Assuming you know how to make your browser run some custom javascript on a particular site/page, then you can save the following as a file and it finally fixes the "bits" conundrum.   It's so embarrasing that the site owner doesn't want to just make a fix that's part of the website (given how easy it is to fix), but these 4 lines cleaned up the playmoney lingo to call a bitcoin a bitcoin, which makes the game a lot more enjoyable for me (and for a lot of others, apparantly).

Code:
var bbs = document.getElementsByClassName("balance-bits");
var b = document.getElementById("balance_bits");
for (var i=0;i<bbs.length;i++) {
  bbs[i].innerHTML="μBTC: "+b.outerHTML;
}
var stickies = document.getElementsByClassName("sticky");
for (var i=0;i<stickies.length;i++) {
  if (stickies[i].innerHTML == "Bits")
    stickies[i].innerHTML="μBTC";
}


That is kinda neat.  Thanks sed!  Moneypot just got cooler.

i have problem with loading of site my page stuck on loading, is that problem only for me or PD has issue with hosting again?

It happens if your connection is bad or if you use TOR or VPN.

Or if the problem is with your browser.

But most of the times the site will load after a long period of time anyway

TOR or VPN might make things slow, but if you don't have localStorage turned on in your browser then it'll never load at all.

Are you sure that TOR even works? I tried a few months ago and the connection was rejected. I am pretty sure it was a PrimeDice and not some other gambling website.


I'm not sure, but I'd be happy to give it a try when I get home.  Given that we're allowed to script and write robots for the site I can't imagine why an anonymous connection would be a problem.
2238  Economy / Gambling / Re: MoneyPot.com -- The Social Gambling Game on: April 03, 2015, 10:35:34 PM
I've put vault.moneypot.com in open-alpha stage, so if anyone is interested in giving it a try (and the reference game: dustdice.com) come on MP chat, and let's discuss!

What is this?  How is it different than the moneypot game you already built?

I just want to know what players need first on swcpoker.eu ..Feel free to pm or post here If you want me to add anything ....

Let's vote !!

I am sure if Micon cared about this he would create a poll himself it looks like he has a road map so whatever we vote here won't matter to much will it?

Micon's been quite receptive to feedback from his customers/players.  So, while he may have a plan, he may also be interested in adapting if input from potential players is pushing him in a particular direction.

I have voted though and that is for linux as that is what i am running and if they added that i would be sure to play at least once a week on sundays for the small,medium,big but i don't really play much any more.

Strange, I still see 0 votes for linux on the poll results.  I would have voted for linux (as I love and cherish it) but android would actually get me playing more often sooner.
