You might have to do a few rounds of testing....find some bugs, fix some bugs...repeat.
Maybe offer a small bounty for reports. .05 BTC will get you 20 bug reports for a bitcoin. A good investment imho. And if you're cheap like me, it also gives you incentive to find them before the others do!
I might take your offer on that thanks for the suggestion. |

Basically I am constructing a retailing website with custom written software that should and needs to be tested. I am taking all the necessary precautions to keeping Bitcoins safe while at the same time making it an easy and friendly store to use for new commers to bitcoin. My ecommerce website will not only sell things but help new comers every step of the way to learning Bitcoin. I have purchased an SSL certificate so customers can even feel more safe. The slogan is "Never pay with a Credit Card Again" and that is the aim and drive of the whole store is to provide a way for people to purchase things with out feeling like they will puke when they get an overdraft bill the following month from their bank. Anyways please RSVP if you want to sign up for the hack a thon day, I will be participating in it my self(not enough time to participate, i will be adding more products to the list while you guys hack  ). I plan it to be within the next month or so. The rules are simple in order to participate you must not DDoS or do anything that might other wise cause physical or hardware harm to the server it self. The aim is to attempt to find holes from the back-end programming(PHP/MySql/XSS) from cheaperinbitcoins and report them on the steps you took to recreate the hack. I want my website to be safe and secure. Also website suggestions are welcome too before or after the hack-a-thon event. Any date suggestions? Teh Rulez: Pay Per Report Per Person: 0.05 BTC (If you find a big security risk I will put in bonus of 0.5 BTC so that makes 0.55 BTC per huge security risk) Reports must be through enough for me to recreate and verify ---------------------------------- Target Website: Unreleased to the public. ---------------------------------- Bug Count: 4 Security Flaw Count: 0 ( I haven't seen any database extractions yet) Happy Hacking!

Okay bitcoin community... How many slice-n-dice, not for kitchen use, ninja, dagger type items have you purchased in the past year? and if so please let me know what kind and any links if possible. Thanks for participating in my survey.  |

Why do people keep selling low?? At least don't buy back high.
Panic sells? I mean, it pretty much plummeted... It "plummeted" because all sell orders down to $8.7 were filled. It wasn't the hand of God, an omen or a supernatural anomaly. Nobody is forcing people to sell their coins at $8.7. Im pretty sure we all know why it plumets... |

This is some great advice, We need to educate the community(and my self) as Bitcoin economy is needs some stability and I think education will help this future stability.

Well that clears that up, thanks everyone for helping me save a whole lifetime of trouble  |

Note to the community: I must settle down a little bit with MiningFarm and point my attention towards another project I've been meaning to finish and have been working off and on with over the past couple of months. I'm going to be fixes errors only for the next course of the next 2 months or so with mining farm until my project is finished as in order for me to continue working on mining farm I can't be broke and must go where the money is to keep the server up and running. So please only report errors and not suggestions for the course of the next month or two. You'll know when my next project is released it will be pretty enlightening to the community. That is my hopes and dreams any ways.
I came into Bitcoin thinking that there would be businesses popping up every where as it got popular, looks like I joined way too early to watch that magically happen, and must be the one of the few that will attempt to sprout the Bitcoin vision. I hope others will join me in backing the Bitcoin economy with products and services that have actual value.

Question about rpc.target.rewrite setting in the config file...
Does this setting make pushpool behave like a pool vs a proxy to bitcoind? As in, when disabled (false), it is just a proxy to a bitcoind that doesn't bother logging any shares to the DB? And as in, when enabled, it is a proxy to a bitcoind that logs shares to the DB?
This would explain why when I set it to false I see shares generated in my miner but nothing gets logged to the DB. But, as I read the code, shouldn't it go ahead and process the share even though it's not an "easy target" and log to the DB? Looking at the git repo, in msg.c @ line 339, it should just skip over that section and continue processing. However, when I run the code with custom debugging lines inserted throughout submit_work(), I do not even see the custom debugging lines. To see the custom debugging lines, I must set rpc.target.rewrite to true.
So, why is it that when I set rpc.target.rewrite to true pushpool logs to the DB and I see my custom debug messages, but if I set it to false, everything seems to take a nap?
Also, what exactly is it rewriting? I'm still trying to figure that part out...
- Vadtec
I guess this isn't a very important question, otherwise it might have been answered. Such a shame. I have other questions I'd like to ask, but so far neither of the two questions I've asked were even responded to. Guess I'll do this stuff the real way and just figure the code out, though it would be nice to get some real support. - Vadtec I think you are confused, the only thing rewrite does is have everyone hash at the current bitcoin network difficulty making the whole set up useless scince no work/shares will be distributed unless someone finds a block then only one share will be sent to the database. |

What if someone wrote a program that had a centralized network that would distribute passwords ranges to bruteforce? How long would that take I wonder with the current number of bitcoins users.
|
|
|
|
|
Interesting answers, does anyone know how long it would take to bruteforce starting at a high number then going in reverse? Like lets say i start at a 256 length password with all capital Z's?
Furthermore now that i think about it how do you brute force a password with out ascii characters?

I got an email stating that they are requiring Photo IDs now for ID verification. So I'd say its pretty normal

what happens when you.... /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
|
|
|
|
512MB of ram... I'll have to check how much is actually being used atm.
If your just running apache + mysql then you should be alright. But if you are trying to run apache + mysql + bitcoind + pushpoold... you need atleast 756MB for the memory spikes for about 1-5 workers. |
|
|
|
|
The plus side is that you only need a password to unencrypt. I think sha256 is hashing although they are the same algorithm lengths(256).
So basically my idea is to do a bruteforce instead of literally cracking it.
|
|
|
|
|
Most notable with the insurance.aes256 file. Is there a simple way to point my miner to cracking this file? I'm anxious to know whats in it...

Hello, I am getting these errors when i run the ./pushpoold -E -F i run the ./bitcoind and the server says it is starting, then gives a warning . This is it . /home/bitcoin/bin/32# ./bitcoind -daemon
bitcoin server starting
/home/bitcoin/bin/32# Warning: To use the "-
daemon" option, you must set rpcpassword=<password>
in the configuration file: /root/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readabl
e-only file permissions.
/home/pool# ./pushpoold -E -F

What is this ? Thanks a lot ! Edit : i use ubuntu 11 with DirectAdmin , i made the Database using the DirectAdmin , and i also installed the line posted by Xenland sudo apt-get install libmysql++-dev. I configured and installed both bitcoind and pushpoold . Looks like bitcoind isn't starting up, you need to fix that first before you can get pushpoold to work and the error bitcoind is spitting out says you haven't setup a bitcoin.conf file for credentials. |

I installed Ubuntu on a VPS, and then installed LAMP. After a few issues were sorted, everything seemed to be running fine. I restarted the server several times without any problems.
Then, I go to access my website this evening, and it seems to be having trouble. I thought it was something wrong with the VPS, so I restarted the server. Now MySQL won't start up, even though it is listed in the /etc/init.d/ folder. I even tried starting it manually with "service mysql start", which just seems to lock up the SSH session (it doesn't bring me back to the prompt after typing that).
Any ideas what's going on here? If I type "ps -e", it shows apache2 running, but not mysql.
What is your specs? possible you don't have enough ram. |

I wish I had seen this earlyer I could have posted to this thread so many times. This is an awsome statment thanks mate to OP
|
|

|

To OP you'd deffinatly need to fill up all the orders that led up to the target before your plan would happen. You idea would work in earlyer times of bitcoin with that kind of money but right now you really need a couple thousand dollars to change the price just a tid bit
