there are traces left in bitcoin network that may allow people or organization to link transactions and addresses to people.
for example, if you are in a exchange and send your docs to buy and sell bitcoin.
and your IP is revealed to the peers when you send a transaction if you don't mask your IP
As you can disguise your IP? Yes you can "disguise your IP" by using VPN, some SPV wallets like MultiBit HD is working on Tor integration so that will honestly will fix most of the theoretical spying. However Tor is not 100% faultproof so taking basic precautions is still required or highly suggested. Its only very hard to tell and prove who own an address without some user doing an action that reveal himself. |

Most people want big size block, but they don't like XT.
If the core developer can't give people big size block, then the only choice is XT.
What exactly is preventing us, or anyone from just implementing BIP101 and submitting it to the community? And Bigger block is something that we will need in the future but i don't see any urgency. Even XT at the very least wont come to be for months. So again; Why the rush? |

Because this wallet is more than a year old and have small time block. That mean a lot of data on the blockchain. Sorry for all the problem. Unfortunatly I cant manage everything. I need help of the community.  sorry valkir, unfortunately cannot help on technical things. I've seen in other coins the blockchain available to be downloaded from mega, so you dont need to sync all the blockchain. Can someone make that? there's a bootstrap on the OP [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=778053.msg8770548#msg8770548] Bootstrap.dat (27-05-2015) https://mega.co.nz/#!20lR2TKa!OrhAd4CM0NmNOtZ8_DbxKwaQotdOSXnptTj7cNgToo0 copy that whole line into address bar. just checked and link still works download it - pop it in the roaming - restart wallet I used that last time but still found i needed to keep restarting a few times to get it to update also it still seems to freeze but it is minting so  also what wallet version are you using ? Just in case the user has issues finding the Teslacoin folder in roaming, type %appdata% in the computer navigation bar. Then it synced over night for me. No problem since then and i was on the right blockchain from the start. |

That's why we shouldn't made something decentralized become centralized because something like this would happen someday.
But, limit maximum withdraw to 70% or 90% is stupid. Sometimes people need their money quickly & don't have time to contact others
I better keep using my usual wallet than any bitcoin card
There's no limit on withdraw, you can get all your BTC back. The limit is on only debit transaction. Not on your BTC balance. He was talking about The limit on the debit transaction , Stop misleading people  He says "need their money" you can have your BTC back in full at any time. Are you done FUD'ing or did you finally come up with your proof? More proof !? lol anyways Wating for bit-x users to confirm the recent requist, also i think noone is using this shady company! So i will just stop here . You never brought any proof at all. But i guess there's no point in debating it. You can deny bit-x properly pay out and tell everyone who say so are liars but that doesn't make it the truth. You can tell everyone they scam and steal BTC but then you would just be calling me and trusted users liars if i/we tell you Bit-x have never stole BTC from us at the very least so far. So ultimately it looks pretty legit as i been getting my payouts there and taking them out weekly. When requesting BTC out, it takes a few seconds to get accepted, then confirmed so far. |

It's pretty hard to believe 4.5BTC is 1% of what people have invested. This sound pretty blatantly scammy now. ^_^"
No problem. It just your thoughts! First investors got 75 payouts of 200. It is indeed just my thoughts. I'm a high skeptic, specially when someone claim something like 100k USD was invested with him through some shaddy ad. But by all mean if that is true, congrats. Think of me when you're sipping your martini.  |

I've had a credit card stolen, and while I've cancelled everything with the bank, and looking online I think I cancelled early enough, they've told me some transactions might go through. If they buy bitcoin, is there a way of reporting and catching the bastards? Or are they untraceable?
If you send multiple transaction with SPV wallet, from different addresses, its fairly easy for someone spying on your to link the addresses to your IP. So extra precaution and intelligence is required if anonymity is important to you. |

Static pressure for Scythe fan:
I know the SP120 did NOT move enough air to cool an S5 but that miner is not enclosed like the S4. My recommendation of the Scythe is purely from my tests on an S5 and from having owned a few S4's.
I see. Thanks for the image. If that is accurate, it would explain the huge difference in cooling performance. It would see a bit expensive to lose 10dB, but if the cooling performance is also better, then maybe it will not run at full speed either. Hmm. I guess i will need to obtain a sample to toy around. I do also need to think of my S5 as well. I would just go with one of the recommended ones: https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/204199879-Antminer-S4-fan-specification-and-possible-replacement-fansI have used Delta's and Sanyo. But they are really the tried and true fans that work. No they are not quiet but they move air. That's nice but they have to do it quieter than stocks fans otherwise i can just leave them running or run the stock fan at lower speed. Hmm. It's hard to calculate cooling/dB ratio. Several users told me the fan that did the best cooling vs noise for them was the Kaze, where it was loud but not a high pitch. Guess i'll have to try stuff myself. |

Haha. A USian. Interesting. Well its not like i don't understand the need at some point to go around civil liberties to get information needed to hunt down dangerous criminals. However allowing this in a decentralized network would quite simply expediently destroy it.
Your second point demonstrates that you "don't understand the need at some point to go around civil liberties" (VirosaGITS). Nietzsche’s philosophy contemplates the meaning of values and their significance to human existence. Given that no absolute values exist, in Nietzsche’s worldview, the evolution of values on earth must be measured by some other means. How then shall they be understood? The existence of a value presupposes a value-positing perspective, and values are created by human beings (and perhaps other value-positing agents) as aids for survival and growth. Because values are important for the well being of the human animal, because belief in them is essential to our existence, we oftentimes prefer to forget that values are our own creations and to live through them as if they were absolute. For these reasons, social institutions enforcing adherence to inherited values are permitted to create self-serving economies of power, so long as individuals living through them are thereby made more secure and their possibilities for life enhanced. Nevertheless, from time to time the values we inherit are deemed no longer suitable and the continued enforcement of them no longer stands in the service of life. To maintain allegiance to such values, even when they no longer seem practicable, turns what once served the advantage to individuals to a disadvantage, and what was once the prudent deployment of values into a life denying abuse of power. When this happens the human being must reactivate its creative, value-positing capacities and construct new values.
(Colorization mine.) Can you stop copy pasting tons of stuff and formulate your point or opinion if you have one? You're not understanding what i'm saying. And its pretty simple. Giving central authority over a decentralized body make it not decentralized anymore. That would effectively kill what Bitcoin is. Was that in an acceptable form to be understood? |

Ah indeed. I just noticed now it indeed stuck just after the diff increase. O.o;
Thats weird i been using this forever and i never noticed any bugs. I wonder what causes it.

You seem not to have "[H]earnd" (tvbcof) of satire (prior that post). (See below.)
Damn spell-checker If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
I (a USian) actually have spent most of my life being pretty down on the U.S. We were deeply involved in Vietnam when I entered life on Earth, and it's been down-hill from there in a lot of ways. As I study history I am becoming more of an 'American Patriot' I must say. There are, or at least there were, some things about this country which were actually really impressive. Samuel Adams and some of his contemporaries have a lot to do with this. edit: get quotes right-ish. Haha. A USian. Interesting. Well its not like i don't understand the need at some point to go around civil liberties to get information needed to hunt down dangerous criminals.

I support this and NOT XT.
I think XT backers are taking people for block size change as pro XT. Seem to really be pushing this one point. Correct, people don't seem to differentiate. Bip101 is NOT Bitcoin XT. I strongly disagree with a blocksize increase, if it was needed core developers would've done it. It's not a blockstream conspiracy, it really isn't needed and actually hurts Bitcoin.
Biggest problem is block rewards will approach zero with time, transaction fees will be the only miner reward. If blocks are only partially filled then transactions can be sent for free, we need blocks to be full in the future so transaction fees increase enough to support miners.
We can talk about it in 100 years okay? Honestly bitcoin wont survive if it can't get more than 3 tx per second lonnng before then. Its true its not an immediate need. The stress test we had recently just prove we will need it. Not now, indeed. But soonTM. |

Problem Update:
Still not able to install the 64 bit version of MultiBit HD on my 64 bit PC due to Norton blocking. So I took a different approach:
I had a few warning alerts during the process, however, I did successfully install the 32 bit version on my 64 bit PC. It has been running well since the install and I have not received any further alerts from Norton.
Ahh. I see your problem. due to Norton You might want to try an Anti-Virus that isint the top worse one out there. Go dowload Malwarebyte and scan it with that. I get you found a work around that work for you but honestly. Norton =/ |

One of the 'features' which I would expect to see in the XT pipeline would be what I call a 'forced spend'. This would happen when black- or white-listing and individual identity systems were rolled in and proven. A year or two.
A forced spend would be something like 'you have a year to dig out your deep storage wallet and send your coins to yourself (or whoever you choose) else they will no longer be valid.' In this way the entire currency base would be known and a good starting point would be in place. We are in an 'unfortunate' situation now where there are plenty of BTC which are not really understood by those nice people who are protecting us from terrorists and stuff.
The way this would effect Causius Coin (or whatever it was) would be that people would have to break the seal. An alternative would probably be that the holder could produce them for physical inspection and registration.
Why in the world something such as this should be needed, required or wanted? Beside the huge annoyance of having to resend your coin to the same address. Refreshing if you will. It serve no purpose. The world is full of mean and scary terrorists, dangerious drug lords, disgusting pedos, tax cheats who cause the good law abiding citizens to pay more than their share, etc. Why would 'we' NOT want those who are looking out for us to have the tools needed to do their jobs as efficiently as possible? Individual liberties have to be sacrificed for the common good sometimes, you know. Haven't you hearnd? You sound like a American Patriot. Sorry but no. I don't mind if a drug lord has 1 million bitcoin and is sitting on it. The authorities oughta go do their job without undermining civil liberties. |

Another XT thread. Why keep this up?
-snip-
Block size is no reason to support XT.
OP doesn't support XT. I guess you didn't read it carefully. that's why more discussion is good. Read his other threads and come back and tell me that.  Well i went over it and it seem he's bashing anti-XT FUDer/sheep's way of being against XT without any logical evidence. That doesn't make him Pro-XT. But i can't say i went through pages of the thing. ^_^" |

Hmm. Well code change limited to block size is pretty simple if you read a couples you might get some grasp on it. But anyhow, most accept that eventually we will have to raise the block size. The cons is bandwidth increase for people on dialup. Maybe lower mining fee. Pros is room for transaction rate growth and faster tx confirmation in a way.
Most of the discussion isint about blocksize. Its against XT since they include code not related to block size.
