241  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: downloading blocks is too slow on: May 16, 2014, 03:57:49 AM
Is your cpu maxed? It has to process the blocks too.  Low disk space?  Some kind of firewall problem? How many connections do you have?
242  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Which Bitcoin Exchanges allow withdrawal to local Bitcoind Wallet? on: May 16, 2014, 03:54:04 AM
Create an account on whichever exchange you're thinking of and see if there's a withdrawal option.  If there's not one then run.  Also Google the exchange before depositing.  If it says they've halted withdraws then run.
243  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does martingale really works? on: May 16, 2014, 03:49:58 AM
martingale works 100% if you have infinite money


Martingale doesn't work at all.  It doesn't matter how much you start with or how small your base bet is.  The odds are with the house no matter how much you bet.  And it's even worse because you're doubling your bet when you lose.  Doubling your bet in a game where the house has an edge can never be a winning strategy.

How can you even guarantee a return? The best you could really do is less than a percent in dollars for a CD, and it's still not instant access to your money.  You could purchase some type of bond, but that's even less access.  10% return, instant fund access and low risk don't go together at all.
245  Other / Meta / Re: Paid Signatures Increases Likelihood of Getting Banned on: May 14, 2014, 09:10:18 PM
Many people, including me, are just terse.  My signature doesn't pay by post count, so it doesn't matter how often I post.  I don't know how people post page long replies, it just never seems to me like there's that much to say.
246  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it neccessary to 'test' new cold storage? Is there such thing as invalid key? on: May 14, 2014, 03:43:46 PM
If you generate an invalid address then you're doing it wrong.  There's no warning to test every bitcoin qt key that it generates for you.  What's different about doing it offline? The only difference is that rolling your own cryptography is always a bad idea.
247  Other / Off-topic / Re: How much cash do you carry? on: May 13, 2014, 03:27:29 PM
About $100, unless I'm going to the casino / card room.
248  Economy / Long-term offers / Re: 1M mortgage equity colateral on: May 13, 2014, 03:25:27 PM
If you're in the process of selling the home you definitely don't want to put a "lean" on it.
249  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Tried to setup solo mining: "Pool is not providing work fast enough" on: May 13, 2014, 02:40:16 PM
Are you using stratum?  If not you'll get that error.  You might need to install the stratum proxy to serve stratum to your miner.
250  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Reddit’s science forum banned climate deniers. on: May 12, 2014, 06:07:32 AM
Wow, are non-scientists still denying climate change?  I wonder what year it'll be when they learn what's up.  How long did it take until they accepted the world isn't flat?
251  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it neccessary to 'test' new cold storage? Is there such thing as invalid key? on: May 12, 2014, 05:59:48 AM
Don't use a brainwallet.  That's terrible.  Use a real wallet, armory or electrum offline.
252  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Createrawtransaction: How does this actually work? on: May 10, 2014, 09:47:40 PM
It's the n value, you need some way of reading the raw transaction, such as you suggested.
253  Economy / Auctions / Re: [WTS] Cam site with around $500/month revenue on: May 10, 2014, 03:32:07 AM
How do you get the revenue? Can you "monitor" the feeds?
254  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Createrawtransaction: How does this actually work? on: May 10, 2014, 03:21:22 AM
Each {} is a list, so you can have as many inputs and outputs as you want.
255  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Program that converts a windows wallet to a mac one? on: May 10, 2014, 03:13:19 AM
Which wallet client? If it's for some small alt coin that only provides a Windows binary then the program you need is a compiler.
256  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: What are the limits of ASIC Mining? on: May 10, 2014, 02:37:12 AM
I'm sure there are old Asics that aren't profitable now, depending on your electricity costs.  But I'm sure a lot of miners aren't concerned with profitability now, but how the price will go up later.
257  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Low risk steady returns investment fund idea on: May 09, 2014, 09:09:03 PM
First you need to create other accounts and then loan yourself larger and larger sums of money to gain trust.
258  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: buying 4 Teraminers for $7500 need advise on: May 08, 2014, 08:09:41 PM
Are you 100% sure that the electricity will be free for the next year or so?  Or is it possible you'll be kicked to the curb at some point?
Are you 100% sure they won't break?
259  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoins sent to unknown address on: May 08, 2014, 04:33:28 PM
There's absolutely no point in using linux and running an encrypted file system if you're going to leave your private keys on a website.  Instead of importing the private key you should just transfer the funds to an address in your multibit wallet or sweep the private key.
260  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Wallet.dat File Extension on: May 07, 2014, 06:13:09 PM
Not only does it not increase security, but renaming it to cat.gif increases the likelyhood that you'll lose it, accidentally delete it, forget it's on a USB drive and give it to someone else, etc.
