I believe the Hard fork part alone is the biggest reason why something like this should be very carefully considered.

My blockchain was initialized in 2011, I don't believe I have deleted it since, but it has not been running continuously, and I've had periods where I had not run it for months.

Find out in the next episode of Currency Saga Z.
I simply couldn't resist.

Doesn't matter what will happen with Stampax, there shall be blood, get out of this pyramid scheme while you still can!
You didn't get out when we told you to get out, you lost and were wrong and called us trolls!
Cut your loose Nice catch  . A troll with poor spelling... |

price will rapidly increase if they buy 19k coins...
The opposite will happen once 19k are sold. |
|
|
|
|
Who knows, I mean Bitstamp said they will reimburse ALL lost coins, so in principle this shouldn't make them sell, however knowing that 19k can be sold at any time, people could likely sell, not just to liquidate their BTC holding so they don't risk losing them in another hack, but also because 19k are waiting to be sold.

I don't see this changing.
My country also has strict anti-gun laws, even somebody at age 40-50 has a slim to none chance to get a license, let alone somebody half that age.

If RFC6979 is used, there will be no need for a random value.

You would have to point to the code. I can't look at all of your code.
Also, this is just my advice, but please use english naming of your files + comments. It's difficult to navigate.

It is surprising. I expected the price to go down more due to the Bitstamp 19k hack, but it has not budged. Are we seeing a delayed reaction till Bitstamp comes back online?
Bitstamp is closed. Why would people sell their Bitcoin on other exchanges, because of Bitstamp? It is like saying there will be a bank run in Switzerland, because a Spain bank was hacked. So we are seeing a delayed reaction, and once Bitstamp is back, whales dump? |

Simply throw a coin or dice 160 times and you will have real random number.

It is paid beartards trying to drive the price down by scaring people. Trust your own judgement.

A business associate knows I'm involved with Bitcoin and said that he and his son bought some bitcoins to use to pay for items in World of Warcraft quite some time back....perhaps 2010 or so.
They forgot about them until last year as they realized they could conceivably have hundreds of coins somewhere.
They don't recal any other details other than that they bought Bitcoin.
I told them to search the hard drive for wallets etc.
I'd like to give them a list of files to search for or other clues.
Also -- does anyone recall an early Bitcoin platform involving wow?
Please list any ideas and exactly what might help them search the hard drive.
If they have had their computer repaired(reinstalled operating system) chances are their coins are long gone. |

Yup This is looking more and more gox 2.0
this is not good
Yes, and the term should be stOmped, rather than stAmped. |

Oh, and you work with Bitstamp and know for sure this is Bitstamp's address? Please don't spread disinformation. |

Hello random people,
I was wondering how many times has this question which I am about to ask, has been asked on this forum. Subsequently I'd be obliged if anyone gave me the links to such resources.
Say I was a fresh high school pass out student and lets say I have acquired the unquenchable thirst for mining Cryptos.
I start with my high end graphics card and then waste my money on ordering some small scale miners.
But it isnt enough for me... so... now I want to build my own hardware.
[THE QUESTION :]
What must I study to get the basic knowledge of developing the modern day Bitcoin mining chips ? What technical knowledge does one need to understand the basic 'design principles' one must follow to EVENTUALLY build his own mining hardware ?
It depends on what knowledge you currently have. Mining is basically calculating a ton of hashes on same small chunk of bytes. The kinda of hash varies with the crypto currency you want to mine. Let's say you are dealing with Bitcoin, therefore it's SHA-256. Grab a book and learn what SHA does. It's basically a series of rounds. Each round does some bit manipulation on a block and then modifies some internal state. If you want to go into hardware, the first step I recommend is to learn about FGPA. They are affordable. It costs a few 100$ to get an entry level board. Then get familiar with a hardware design language like Verilog structural. You can even try with a simulator if you don't want to invest in a development board. It's hugely different than a programming language. Essentially, you are going to define the wiring and the logical gates of your FGPA. (Stay clear from Verilog behavior - it won't help you get to hardware). Then you can "program" the chip - in fact it means that the chip will reconfigure its layout physically to match your design. So you will have to deal with clocks, timings, layout, number of gates, undefined levels and so on. After that, you can decide if you want to go further and get into ASIC. Unfortunately for ASIC you have to spend 1 million $ but a FGPA would get you far in the right direction. Have fun! PS: Of course ASIC will beat the crap of your FGPA design because they are not programmable and are built for a given layout. But it's like learning to program by edging 0 & 1 into a CDROM. He isn't talking about the programming aspect, but the low-level electrical engineering aspect. |
