Pm me details.
Did you actually just created an account seconds ago only to show your interest in this offer?

Also, same localtime than reasonable_doubt...

Could be reasonable doubt's alt account but the same local time is probably the default UTC +0.
Indeed. I personally change the timezone as soon as I register in a forum though.

pywallet can delete addresses from your wallet. But you don't need to clean your wallet at all. Bitcoin will run fine even with tens of thousands of addresses. Also, instead of polling for transactions, consider using "walletnotify" to get instant notification of transactions.
It will indeed run fine, but it will take waay more time to load up. I am talking from experience, with a 200k address wallet.
If you think something in pywallet can be improved, you can post in its thread, that's the point of it
For example someone reported a similar problem (time-consuming transaction deletions) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.msg2206558#msg2206558 and it was fixed

How is Trezor safe against protocol changes?
I think its purpose it to sign with an ECDSA private key the data you send to it.
So if the changes are not too deep (like changing the elliptic curve used by bitcoin) it will be ok

TestNet3 is hashing with around 1.5 GHashes or less for very long time now.
Yesterday, all of a sudden there were 3 blocks per minute without including any tx...
So, no...

Yesterday there was up to 20 blocks per minute because difficulty dropped to 1 for 2016 blocks. Difficulty is 16 now, average block time around
1 minute. There are not many people making transactions on TestNet3, and with very fast block times just 1 transaction blocks are not so rare.
Indeed I wasn't clear, the problem is not that there wasn't any transaction, but that the miner didn't include any: I know it because I had some transactions waiting

Hey, that same thing is happening even on main net, and no one cares because there is no way to prevent such abuse.
I don't remember seeing empty blocks for more than 30 minutes on mainnet
Also, mainnet is mainnet, whereas testnet is made for testing and if miners don't include transactions testing would become kinda difficult

Anyway, I never said that the miner should be killed or tortured for doing so. As I stated in the OP: "I'm just writing down my frustration"

- They intend to open source everything. So expect Chinese clones that cost 1/10th of the price.
Yeah, I'll definitely use a Chinese clone to manage my money

What do you think is under the hood of the computer you are currently using?
You mean the computer containing my wallet, which is not connected to internet?
I check every transaction it produces, and when I received it it didn't contain any keys.

There's an ASIC fucker who is raping testnet without even including transactions
I know, pointless thread
I'm just writing down my frustration
There have been hundreds of posts complaining ASIC makers should be using testnet to test hardware and now threads complaining about ASIC's on testnet?? Not including transactions is out of line though.
That was the point  Roll Eyes

Once upon a time there was a village where one rich man who had ten breads while the rest of the village was poor and starved. The rich man said to the poor people: "listen, I will share one bread with the rest of you, that should keep you satisfied" the villagers responded: "one bread wont feed us all" The rich man said "Oh, that is no problem, the bread can be cut into 20 slices". But The villagers responded "that is not enough, we are thousands of starving people" The rich man then said "that is still not a problem, because each slice of bread can be divided into hundreds of crumbles - and if that is not enough for you, each crumble can actually be divided into billions of molecules"

Stupid story? Well it is exactly the same logic that a disturbingly lot of people here believe can solve the problem of the limited supply of bitcoins.

What I think would work out well is if testnet 4 were released. testnet 3 could be picked up by a dev team. Who could work with the btc dev team as far as sharing information. it could be relabelled as TN3 or something. It would be an experimentation coin. If they communicated with the btc devs they could try out ideas on tn3 where there would be sufficient hashrate and community support. If it goes well some features could be implemented in bitcoin. I firmly believe a new altcoin should not be created if it's features could instead be implemented into bitcoin but there needs to be a good testing ground with large hashrate and lots of active trading/transactions
So you want an altcoin which is just Bitcoin+op codes? (for now)
3558  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Lets talk hardware wallets... on: June 17, 2013, 08:52:00 AM
I know multibit will support it
How? Is there any specs of Trezor out there?

http://www.bitcointrezor.com/#testimonials look at Jim Burton's quote. No specs or information about how to support it, but if you talk to Slush I bet he would allow you to see it, if you could add support to a client or something.

Thanks

3560  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Testnet Discussion - Why a testnet economy is a good thing. on: June 17, 2013, 08:09:04 AM
Can't the testnet be reset at any time by the devs?
Yes

No, it can't. Developers can reset TestNet only with new Bitcoin client released, by changing genesis block (won't happen since they would lose
millions of coins they mined) or checkpoint(s). The fact TestNet genesis block was never reseted speaks about what developers really are up to,
basically they don't want late adopters to have more Testnet coins than they think late adopters should have.
That's not what he is asking. Yes the devs can reset Testnet. Period.

Thats an inaccurate way of phrasing it. You make it sound like they reach into your Bitcoin client and erase your copy of the Bitcoin testnet blockchain. If you were right then testnets wouldn't have versions denoting the current version. Testnet Version 3 is the current one. If they just wiggled into your computer to reset your testnet, we would still be on version 1 no?

Quote
Except if for you changing the genesis block doesn't reset testnet because people can still use a modified client to access the old one. That's true but noone will ever give a fuck if the satoshi client doesn't include it

That depends. People give quite a lot of fucks about random projects like AnotherBullshitCloneCone1 or Another BullshitCloneCoin2. A lot of energy is frittered away on projets like these. It would be better if the lessons learned could be applied to bitcoin, rather then be wasted on another fly by night coin.

It's very accurate if you don't take only one sentence.

It depends on what people think Testnet is.
If it is the network you reach by 'bitcoin-qt -testnet', they can definitely reset it, whatever people think or want.
If it is the network called Testnet3, of course they can't 'reset' it. But all your justifications about how it is better than an altcoin would become pointless.

Also, the point is not what they did but what they can do.
