There is a third option. Kill 1.x branch. No more updates for that. Anyone who upgrades to 2.0 gets told that their coins are going to be migrated to a new wallet and asked whether they will agree to this. If they say no electrum closes. If they say yes a new wallet is generated and their coins get swept to a key in the new wallet. The old wallet file is backed up in case the user wants to refer to labels and stuff.
The above is a pretty hardcore stance but I just thought I'd mention that this is another way to do it. It would save the developers a lot of time because they could ditch the legacy code (after a few versions where you are allowed wallet upgrades).

Well I live in India(a country in S.E.A  ) , and here in Delhi, India I can find you some people who will be ready to give you cash for btc, so if you come to delhi do tell it to me India is in south asia not south east asia. There is a difference. @OP: which countries in particular do you mean? There is a forum for country specific threads here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=11.0 |

There is an option under the file menu to see old addresses. They can still be used. The privacy implications that phillip is talking about are there, though.

So, I am so done with electrum. I just want my btc out
Can I command prompt the private key from the address and go put my coin at blockchain or can I send it to multibit?
0.02btc if you can help me do this in the next 10-15 mins so I don't have to stress all damn day
On the receive tab of the electrum window find the bitcoin address where you sent the bitcoins, right click it and select private key. You can then copy it and import it into blockchain.info or multibit or whatever. Note: Once you've exposed the private key don't use this electrum wallet file again. You will have to create a new one using the file menu > new/restore command in electrum. Thanks. Got the bitcoin back Don't worry, not using electrum for as long as I live. Swept the entire address and throwing it all away. Nice 5 hour waste by me this morning Ok then. Please send the bounty to this address: 1E9HKCWtm2yn1j2TCbyWZdnggxnTWCcy22 |

When I try to open the qt client it shows this message on terminal:
./bitcoin-qt: symbol lookup error: ./bitcoin-qt: undefined symbol: _ZN5boost10filesystem4path7codecvtEv
I couldn't find any solution googling the message. How do I fix it?
The pre-compiled bitcoin-qt binary that is distributed on bitcoin.org doesn't work on server linux distros like wheezy and CentOS. You can get all the gory details here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/3803The .static executables in 0.9.1 such as bitcoind.static will work but not the gui version -qt. You will have to compile from source. |

Thanks for helping.
I unchecked auto connect and tried each of the listed servers, closed and reopened the program and the dot is always red and the left side said no connection. So, I went to my firewall and electrum is listed as allowed. Any other ideas?
Try what's listed here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=570573.0 |

Can someone please help me.
I am new to electrum, I heard good things and wanted to try it instead of multi bit.
So I downloaded and installed, everything went fine, opened it up, adjusted preferences, and saw my receiving addresses. So, I sent some btc.
Only after did I realize it says not connected. I have looked for help but found nothing. My btc was sent to the address but I can't get electrum to connect.
Can someone help?
Is auto connect supposed to be on?
Protocol?
Proxy?
Please help
First you don't have to be online to receive money so your bitcoins are not lost. They've been sent to the address in your wallet. So stop panicking. Electrum isn't aware of that transaction because you haven't been able to connect so far. I'm guessing you found the server selection dialog box already so uncheck auto connect and select another server. If that doesn't work try restarting electrum. Proxy is usually not required so set it to none. Protocol is SSL by default and should work. If non of the above work then you probably have a firewall blocking access. |

Anyone have any more luck installing Bitcoin latest on Centos 6.5? I'm still running 8.x series because of the inability to compile under latest Centos ... The Dependencies listed are all newer that the latest that I can seem to download and compile.
Download the bitcoin core 0.9.1 linux binary tarball from bitcoin.org. Use the bitcoind.static executable. No need to compile anything. |

You know, the shape might seem sexual, but functionally it's also the most secure shape. The fewer seems in the device, the more difficult it is for someone to find a way to open the device in a way you might not notice. This is the easiest method for being able to visually inspect the device.
Interesting. Never thought of it that way. Have you considered a hockey puck shape? A flat circle. Easy to pocket and likely will have few seams. Also you can lay it flat on a surface without it rolling about and potentially breaking. |

Any other to add to the list?
Limited supply, which is very good argument for anarchist/liberal crew. Re-definition of money, actually, the first real money. The issue is that the supply is going down (or at least after it's all mined). People losing their coins and such turns it into a deflationary currency. I'm sure some think this is good. But really, it makes people afraid to spend it. It's a bit like highlander isn't it? In the end there can be only one (satoshi)  Satoshi is reading this right now like "but there IS only one Satoshi!" No i meant one satoshi as in the currency unit. If bitcoin survives long enough eventually all bitcoins will be lost except for the last satoshi. Then they will have to increase the decimal places or something. |

I've always found that an example is the best way to convey the sheer size of numbers. I'll just leave this here:
In before quantum-sun pictures explaining that the chances of this happening are literally astronomical.

Discounted products? A smaller lite promotional version? Or early buyers?
Update though if you decide to go that direction.
Yeah, like does it come with free lube? |

You can hold an entire wallet in your head. knowledge = ownership.

People keep asking this question over and over again and people here keep answering it. Most of the time it's a wasted effort when they could just link to past answers. But sometimes questions like these lead to interesting threads. This thread is not one one of those but here is an example of one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=604002.20 |

Armory could so use an HCI person. Multiple headlines screaming for attention, large blocks of text and an interface with so much going on.
