But it -is- cross domain, so json isn't an option, right? Firefox gives neither an error nor the javascript alert and chrome fails as expected with the following: XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://mtgox.com/code/data/ticker.php. Origin http://[___MY_SITE___] is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. That actually depends on the site. That said, it appears that MtGox supports neither CORS or JSONP. You'll have to ask him about it. In the mean time, that means that you'll have to have your server grab the data and act as a proxy.

dataType: 'jsonp'
The dataType should just be 'json', since that's all your getting back. Besides, unless you control the server giving you the data, you shouldn't use jsonp.

I saw someone else with this issue post a few days ago, so this must be an actual bug. That's pretty bad. It's gotta be worse for MagicalTux, though, since he'll have to pour through a lot of logs to resolve this.

Those graphs have a one day lag for "other", because total network hash rate takes a long time to measure. "other" is simply the average total hash rate over the last day - the current reported hash rate of all the pools. Don't get worried until it's like this for longer than a day.

See, most of us DO trust [Tycho], so we have nothing to fear if he controls bitcoin for a few hours, as he has. However, once you start talking longer than a day, it's no longer [Tycho] that we have to worry about. At that point I would be starting a bounty thread, if there wasn't one already, to DDoS deepbit. And I know that I'm not alone. You may need to read more about this kind of attack. There is no such defined threshold as 50.000% that you may cross for a few hours or days. It may work even if you have only 30% of the network power, but with lower chance, or may fail at 70% too. It's just more probable to sustain longer when over the half, but not strictly "impossible if less" or "possible when more". And it might even work with just 1%. I'm not worried about an attack that happens with only a few blocks. It's the sustained attack that I'm worried about, and the longer that goes, the more likely that the portion of blocks created by the pool will approach their percent of the network. Someone with over 50% of the hashing power WILL eventually be able to overtake the network. The same isn't guaranteed for amounts under 50%.

I just downloaded the client (0.3.22-beta) and the block download has really slowed down to a trickle.
The first 50,000 dowloaded in a few minutes but now its been 30 minutes for the following 20,000 (around 73,000 blocks now). Still showing 8 connections
Is it because the "newer" blocks are bigger?
PS This is on 100/50 Mbit connection
Yes, they are much bigger. And by the way, the bottleneck isn't downloading them: it's verifying them. Larger blocks also take longer to verify.

i didnt recieve anything tho. do i have to just wait. i have been waiting for 24 hours now
You undid the system restore, right?

That's still about three cents. Why not 0.00001? 0.01 was fine when we were at 0.3, why is 0.00001 too low when we're at 30?
It's about a third of a cent...

yep, once the block that contained that transaction is downloaded and read by the client, it will show up in the window.
Make sure you have backed up your wallet.dat file properly as well, put it on a flash drive and store that flash drive in a safe place, you may even want to have it on 2 separate flash drives and check to make sure they are okay make a new backup every 2-4 weeks. buy separate brands to be safer.
^Fixed Remember that you only have 100 spare keys in your keypool that get backed-up, and that most outgoing transactions will use one of these keys.

There's no real worry. Bitcoin is a pretty liquid market, with good information flows.
Someone with alot of bitcoins is going to spend some of them to analyse the risk. If its truly a risk, he'll spend some more and hire some blackhats to DOS deepbit to ensure his investment is protected. The fact that it hasn't happened yet indicates that those with the most to lose (those doing those top 100 xfers of 200,000 BTCs' at once, not you guys and your original + extra GPU you're using to steal power from your parents with) havent seen it as a major risk.

Bought some, and they appear legitimate. Malwarebytes accepted them, and I can't find them on Google.

This information isn't visible to anybody prior to the Dwolla -> MtGox transfer. After that, it is only visible to MagicalTux and his staff until it is put on the exchange. MagicalTux does not use MtGox, and I suspect the same rule is in effect for his staff.
|

Since it takes days and days for money to flow through Dwolla is there anyway to determine how much is in the pipe? This would be highly valuable information to have. If it's coming into Dwolla via your bank, you can see it in the Pending tab after you login to Dwolla. If it's coming from MtGox, well... Just look at your account history and do some accounting.

Final words, I'm also a newbie, so, maybe somebody will correct me on some details Really? That just about nailed it. Good job!

What happens if you put the same bitcoin wallet on 2 computers? Nothing special. You'll just have access to your balance on 2 computers for the next 100ish transactions. However, please don't do this right now. The software currently doesn't detect this, so if you spend Bitcoins on one computer and immediately spend them somewhere else on the other, your wallet will become corrupted, and we'll have to walk you through fixing it. What happens if i delete my wallet and get a payment? If i restore the wallet from a back up such as a USB will i get all the payments that came after it was original lost.
Yes. Your backed-up wallet will check for new transactions once it is restored. Be sure to make a new backup every 100ish transactions, since you only have 100 extra keys at a time in a wallet. Yes I wonder this too.
What if I backup my wallet and remove it. Get some bitcoins to the same computer.
Will a new wallet be created? Bitcoins are not sent to a computer - they are sent to addresses. They can only be accessed by the wallet that has the private key for the address. Will my backedup bitcoins be gone if I restore the old wallet (on another computer?). (Maybe dumb question.)
No, as long as the wallet contained the keys for the addresses the bitcoins were sent to and they weren't already spent.

I've got a bug for ya... See if you can have it not apply the code within a textbox or input tag.

I hope deepbit hits 100%. I would love getting a payoff for every block! Completely eliminates luck.
When deepbit is over 50%, they have the authority to take 100% of the blocks if they want.

I sent 0.2 btc, but the internet was down. Now it's stuck at 0 confirmations for over 20 minutes now. Is there any way to force another broadcast of the transactions?
It will be automatically rebroadcast. However, you may have to wait until you've updated your blockchain and have a few connections. Edit: bah, looks like it will only do that after a few days. Try restarting the client.
