According to this https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison it look's like you're getting a good hashrate.
If you're using poclbm try playing around with the flags -v, -f and -w, maybe you can raise it a bit.

Sounds good, but:
The SHA256 of the passphrase would be used as a PRNG seed to generate the user's first 1000 or 2000 or more invisible addresses (the same way 100 addresses are pre-generated for future use), and then would be completely discarded.
Wouldn't that mean that if two people are using the same password they will generate the same addresses ?
(I'm not very educated when it comes to the Bitcoin internals.)

Small? Typical mature exchange charges 0.01%
bitmarket.eu doesn't even have a fee.

My intention was to ask whether my calculations are correct and to start a discussion about lowering the fees at Mt Gox.

A bit off topic, but I didn't want to create a new thread for this:

Has anybody recognized what kind of a money machine Mt Gox is ?

I mean, the current volume is ~75,000 BTC. Let's assume the average price was ~3.00 USD,
then the total transaction sum over the last 24 (48 ? not sure) hours was 225,000 USD.
As we know Mt Gox charges a small 0.65% fee.
Let's do the math:
225000 / 100 * 0,65 = 1,462.50 USD per 24 (or 48?) hours !

Dude, that price is too high.
~10 USD for a word document ? I mean, I know the Dollar is loosing value, but that's just ridiculous Wink

Its already in mkv & u want to compress further to reduce size?

mkv is the container. the correct qusetion would be:
"Its already in h264 & u want to compress further to reduce size?"
Or whatever the video codec of the source file is...

Also I think I found a attack on the system.  If you buy say 500,000 BTC and then flood the market with btc, you could crash btc to about $.10 then put out rumors the currency collapsed.    It might come down by itself.

That's an expensive attack.
That doesn't even work. There are over 6 million bitcoins out there. Just crashing the market price doesn't destroy bitcoin.

Am I getting ignored ??
No, thank you for reporting the bug.  The problem is, I dont think anyone knows how to fix it very easily.  Currently almost all of the Bitcoin developers/contributors work on the backend and add new features.  Reworking the GUI is not anyone's specialty.  If you know anything about wxWidgets and C++, please take a look.
Oh alright, I was just confused because nobody reacted to my post.
And actually no, I don't know anything about C++ or wxWidgets, I'm more of a Java fan Wink

I forget where it is on Vista and later.  It's similar, but the directories are locked out through the file browser, not just hidden, so you'll have to use a command prompt to get to it.
That just isn't right. They aren't locked up and you don't have to use the command promt.
They are freely available via Windows Explorer.

afaik the flag is called "-d" for device.
-d 0 for the first device, -d 1 for the second and so on.

One thing I like to mention:

There is a display issue with the German version (only German ?) when setting the font-size to 125% in Win7.


Bitcoin then looks like that:

Note the Number in the lower right corner. Afaik it is the Number of total transactions but the label isn't fully shown.

Also, when you click on ->sending (->Überweisen) you get this error message:


And when you finally get to the transfer dialog, it looks like that:

Pretty messed up. You have to resize the window to get to the "transfer" and "cancel" button.

And since the "settings window" can not be resized like all the other ones, I cannot change the transaction fee:

This sucks.

I know this only affects like <1% of the bitcoin userbase but anyways,
can this be fixed somehow ?
279  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Selling a copy of Minecraft on: April 27, 2011, 10:57:29 PM
Sorry all. I have already sold the code to diablo. And just so that no one suspects. It was not purchased with stolen credit cards or anything evil, but with my own sweat and toil. I promise. Furthermore, I think it is sort of ridiculous of mojang to think that they have to right to say that someone can or cannot sell a giftcode. I bought that code. It is mine, and I have the right to give it to whomever I want. If the person I give it two pays me for it, that is my own business.

Are codes purchased with stolen credit cards a problem? Of course. Is the solution to say that nobody can sell their own property? No. It probably isn't even legal (or at least it shouldn't be). Maybe mojang should start looking into accounts that have purchased lots of giftcodes and look for suspicious activity. Maybe that wouldn't work. But quite frankly it isn't my problem. But it is pretty obvious that my account, with a grand total of two giftcode purchases months apart from the same paypal account, is legitimate.

Sorry to be hating on Mojang. I really do love them, and minecraft is amazing and all, but that policy is just stupid.
Nothing is said about forbidding the selling of your own codes. It has only been said that they cannot support that.
You still have the right to gift your gift-codes to whomever you want to. No matter what you might or might not get in exchange for that.

Deleted. There are probably thousands of these. I wonder how dangerous it would be to delete all users with 0 posts that haven't logged in for a month. That'd be easier than checking every 0-post user for spam.

I guess you could do a SQL-statement that deletes all 0-post-users with a not-null signature which haven't logged in for a month or so.
