a) no one solo mines

b) no one mines using bitcoind

What's your hash rate that you saw fit to solo mine?

Try importing the wallet into a blockchain.info wallet:

https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet

Make sure your send your coins to a desktop wallet afterwards. bc.i is only good as a temporary wallet.

I tried this and blockchin.info keeps giving me an error.

In that case use pywallet to dump all the private keys and then import them into a new wallet.

The computer store saved that file to a cd for me.

Place the file in the electrum directory (root folder not wallets subfolder) and run electrum.

I think it means that they only forward a minimum of 0.001. So, yeah, they have to accrue until they reach that minimum amount.

What kind of hosting are you looking for? Shared, VPS or dedicated server? Hosts have been one of the fastest adopters of bitcoin as a payment method so there are plenty of options.

Just download the latest binary tarball from sourceforge. It will work out of the box.

Kind of sucks that new users can't even have an avatar and seasond users are stuck with the avatar they already had. What if I some one gets tired of their avatar?

You can add a message under your avatar saying that you have officially disowned it.

Well we are trying to reduce "shit" on the forum anyways...

If you adopt such a hardline stance it will lead to a shortage of alt-coins. Oh the horrors!

Aside from the reinstatement of newb jail, I would also like to see them restricted from creating ANN threads.

How will they announce new alt coins then?

They would wait...

What??! Not fair! The only reason anyone signs up here is to announce a new shit coin.

I guess they are carrying lunch with them.

it is def. time newbie restrictions were brought back on

newly created accounts are worth fuck all now

you have killed off an entire industry

How much were they worth before? Some numbers please.

The coins are now gone. I hope it was the OP spending them and not the third party he talks about in the OP.

For future reference, never reveal the private key to anyone .

You can import the wallet file directly:

https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet

But note that a desktop wallet is much better than a web based one. If you can't wait for blockchain to download you can use a lite client like electrum.

To extract the individual private keys from your wallet.dat file you may want to unlock the wallet first:

walletpassphrase <password> <time in seconds>

For example:

walletpassphrase mypassword 600

Thanks for your answer!

Which one are the Attributes that can be used for Electrum?? I´ve seen two of them -w (wallet) and -g (gui) but I don´t know if there are others...

BR!

Not sure what you mean by attributes but if you want see all the electrum commands just type:

electrum help

in a command prompt. For command specific help type

electrum help <command name>

For example:

electrum help restore

The above instructions are for a recent version of electrum like 1.9.7. Older versions didn't expose command line options like these.

I am a noob to Electrum
I've set up offline wallet & online watch wallet

How do I transfer my blockchain wallet or add additional BTC to my offline wallet without going online. Tut's don't give any instructions whatsoever

Please Help

Pick an unused address from your Receive addresses on your watch-only wallet and just send it to it. If you don't trust it - send a dime... experimentation is the only way to safely feel comfortable with this stuff.

Agreed. This is how it's done. Send a small fraction of a coin over. Later, after the transaction has confirmed, try to send it back to your hot wallet from the offline wallet. Do this in increasing amounts and you'll get the hang of it.

Here's how you spend from an offline wallet: https://electrum.org/tutorials.html#offline-mpk

Thanks for taking my feedback into consideration and especially for that github link. Some interesting stuff there.

Thanks for your suggestions.

I've found roughly ten "80" in the four strings. I then copied the following 64 characters in a hex -> base58check converter to obtain the corresponding wif private key and imported the results into a blockchain.info wallet. All the corresponding addresses are completely empty.

Could these strings be generated from a brainwallet dump or something?
Does somebody know if electrum or multibit generate hex encoded backups?

Probably the answer is just behind the corner, but I tried to find infos online without luck for a few days now!

A private key can have two addresses one for the compressed public key and one for the uncompressed public key. Compressed WIF private keys start with L or K while uncompressed ones start with 5. Easy way to get all the possible combos is to enter the private key into bitaddress.org's wallet details tab.
