If you're running something like mybitcoin or mtgox or any other site that lets customers keep bitcoins in accounts, then one-customer-per-bitcoin-process isn't at all practical. To start with, every bitcoin process has a complete copy of the block chain...
100% agreed, but that is not the only "multiple wallet" (multiple instance) use case. This account system sounds useful, but it should not be used as a justification for avoiding the addition of "-bindport" feature, to change the default 8333 port. |

Why try so hard to prevent running multiple instances of bitcoin?
It is a valid use case to separate bitcoin processes for separate users using SElinux MAC protection, a protection far stronger than anything that can be coded into a shared user process.

To help out mtgox, and hopefully move mtgox closer to permitting withdrawals, I am offering to buy some MTGOX-USD using PayPal funds. Terms: - 1:1 conversion rate
- transaction must exceed 100 MTGOX-USD
- you pay paypal fees, if any
- you must have a good reputation on IRC or this forum
Contact me via forum PM or IRC PM, if interested. Excellent! I want to be your client. But I'm not sure I have enough reputation. If you traded on bitcoinmarket you can know my LR acc. Also you can ask info about my trade history from MtGox. BTW what is the maximum amount for withdrawal. Maximum amount $1000. Send me a PM. |

The divisibility of bitcoin is contained by 64-bit integer size.
Which should be sufficient for a very long time.

No system is foolproof, but ShadowOfHarbringer's suggestions are good. That should eliminate 80% of fraud, which is "hit-and-run" scammers with stolen accounts, who must liquidate in a hurry before account owner notices. The remaining frauds are - person with good reputation, who has their account hacked
- person with good reputation, who, one day, without warning, "spends" that reputation on a massive fraud
The latter has occurred several times on eBay, where a titanium powerseller (the highest seller ranking) who has been completing sales for happy buyers suddenly switches to "evil mode", where they take customer money but never ship product. I call this the "sleeper cell" fraud. An intentional, long-term plan is the most difficult to prevent. |

It's similar to other Shopping Cart Interfaces (SCI's) such as this one from Liberty Reserve or this one from Pecunix. It requires a basic knowledge of HTML forms, which does not really require any toolkit, be it PHP or Rail or anything else. I'm disappointed that mybitcoin chose to release software first without any documentation. But if you can understand how LR/Pecunix's SCI works, you can easily use the same techniques with mybitcoin, obtaining the HTML form variables by playing around with mybitcoin's merchant tools -- with the "encrypt" feature disabled. Reading the PHP source helps, but I found the MBC 'merchant tools' link to be the most helpful resource. Hopefully they will read this thread, and post some documentation  |

Another error found on your site.
Your GDP payment form just locked my account. I contacted gdp support and they said your script was API error settings and they locked my account for security.
I'm not sure how you managed that When I attempt GDP payment, I get the error I'm supposed to get: "GlobalDigitalPay payments are temporarily disabled, while we resolve some bugs in Bitcoin Store software." This happened today, or sometime earlier? |

How about You re-enable the registrations and just disable Paypal and Moneybookers for all new users (Only "old" userbase would be able to use Paypal & Mbookers), so no SCAMs can be made ?
LibertyReserve and Pecunix are "hard" currencies as far as i know, so it is not possible to do drawbacks.
Agreed, would be nice. |

- send some money
- lost your wallet
- restore from older backup
No, it is not correct. It should be: - send some money
- be sure got it
- close Bitcoin
- backup wallet
- send some money
- ...
- send some money
- lost your wallet
- restore from older backup
No, you only need one send -- with one change transaction -- to create a problem. |

How does the keypool feature work and why is it safer?
This gives a bit of info: http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1414.0Among other things, a key pool means that you are more likely to be able to recover your wallet from an older backup. Previously, this scenario - send some money
- lost your wallet
- restore from older backup
might result in you losing all your bitcoins, even the ones you did not send. |

Patch updated to latest SVN (v0.3.14). Could you have listtransactions also include the comment field associated with a transaction? Here's the problem I'm running into:
Yeah, I think this is doable. Will look into it. |
