he is a business man with a questionable past. Well, he is the right person to fight the governments abuse. A normal nerd would probably stop once police from all over the world come and arrest you, sue you, menace you etcetc even if you are innocent  |

If he is running an old version it should update and download the 0.7 Yes Tirapon, you can do that. Just quit the bitcoin client, replace the wallet.dat and start it again. Pay attention to not confuse the 2 different wallets! They must be named wallet.dat in the bitcoin folder to work, so pay attention |

It may take weeks If you use a decent password it can take millions of years or more  |

Please note that the long time it takes to download the blockchain is not a download limit. It's because for each block the client check the blockchain to be sure it's ok and yaddayadda. So basically it's epic hard disk crunching.
Just downloading the blockchain would take less than a hour now, it's not even 4GB. It's the verify part that slow down it.

I heard somewhere that if I store my encrypted wallet on Dropbox that even if your wallet file was encrypted, somehow because of the nature of Dropbox they will be able to easily break your encryption routine  Nonsense. If you encrypt your wallet (either via the bitcoin client or by using Truecrypt) then it's encrypted. Dropbox can't decrypt it. |

I can prove it. What is the best way to prove it?
Again, min bet is 10 BTC. If I am lying you win 30 BTC, if I am telling the truth you pay me 10 BTC. Put your money where your mouth is, you are talking to the oldest miner here so have some fucking respect.
Miner Maria.
It's simple to prove. Find your first reward block in the blockchain. Then transfer .112396 out of that address (I picked that number because its the message id for this thread). If there's no coins there, then you'll need to transfer some in. If you don't have control of that address anymore, find the oldest reward block you DO have access to. No need to transfer bitcoins! The bitcoin client offer a very useful option that allow you to prove you own an address and sign a message with it. So, Maria, c'mon, sign a message with your oldest address, one that contain mined coins and post it on forum. Before i too put you in ignore for trolling  |

That you don't have the full blockchain. So, you have to let the client download it, get all the blocks you lack and ta-dah, done, you are syncronized. A block is found on average every 10 minutes so if you keep the client closed for some hours, when you start it, it will have to get all new blocks it got rid of it epic facepalm Nothing changed, only that the old client didn't tell you this (but it told you that it was downloading new blocks), but uh guess what? If you start the bitcoin client it must get all the new blocks to be syncronized, so nothing changed lol. The new version just tell you that "hey, please note that you are out of sync" |

Did you start it with -rescan ?
No, what is that? If you change the wallet file, you need to use "-rescan" or the client won't credit your balance with coins from transactions it had already downloaded before you changed the wallet file. The coins are still safe, you just can't see or spend them. This is not true for months If you change the wallet.dat and then you start bitcoin it will automatically rescan it and shows all the btc and transactions of that wallet. |

You need to update the backup if the wallet have new addresses. As long as the backup has all the addresses it's fine. But if you then create a new one and receive bitcoins in it, the backup wallet do NOT have it. Your addresses=private keys. If you create a new address and you don't update the backup, then of course the backup don't have the key for that address To complicate more the matter there is the fact that a newly created wallet.dat has already 100 address in it. |
