As i said, the only communist in china is the name.

The rest is totally capitalistic.

 Instead, they order and pay on an Ipad

Too bad i have Android devices  Roll Eyes And no, spending 800$ for an useless tablet is not a good idea.
4245  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Half million tries on: October 07, 2011, 05:21:43 AM
I'm solo mining and have hit 500,000, should i stop or keep going.  I was hoping to find one block solo mining just to be able to do it.  Im kinda frustrated at this point, but wondering if I have come to far to stop.  I know its like a lottery and each hash is its own chance of winning.  I'm currently at 3.0 ghash/s. Any comments.  Thanks.



I am curious,  how do you know you have 500,000 tries.  when I soloed I did not see anything except a hashrate.  Only found blocks report an 'accepted share'  afaik.
Guiminer show the "accepted share" for solo like when pool mining...

It's fine, if people will find bitcoin useful will buy them and the price will rise, no matter what you do

Just keep spread the word

Even if you open it, it take a lot of time, hours, to download the whole blockchain.

Why not make this actually contribute to society rather than wasting energy to get some dumb number etc. !? It is not even finding new prime numbers etc. LOL

The POW should be actually something feasible and something of value.

Sure.

How?

What? You have no idea?

Eh, that's the problem.

4251  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to backup bitcoins? on: October 06, 2011, 03:53:31 PM
Your bitcoins are in the wallet.dat file. If you lose it, you lose the bitcoins inside it.

We speak about rally and bitcoin drop from 5 to 4.6...weird rally is weird
4253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Too many new coins, not enough new Bitcoiners on: October 06, 2011, 03:45:54 PM
Well there will never be more than 21 millions of bitcoins, so where is the problem?
4254  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why a need to enter password to get a new address? on: October 06, 2011, 02:40:35 PM
Because the wallet is encrypted. To add, modify the encrypted wallet, most likely needs the PW.
It's also encrypted when a new address appears spontaneously, after receiving some coins.
So why no need to enter password then?
Mh... are you sure that the new address isn't the one who SENT you the coins?
4255  Economy / Economics / Re: How come the bank failure destroy the wealth??? on: October 06, 2011, 02:26:58 PM
Well it's like when bitcoins were at 30$ and now they are at 5$, you didn't lose any bitcoins but you are poorer.

As for banks it's also "socialize the losses and privatize the profits"

Too much time...for less than 1 GB...

I'm with ShadowOfHarbringer

Seriously guys, are you really trying to make a new forum from scratch??

Just take vbulletin or phpbb or something like that and you will be fine, this is just a forum, not the Stargate Command. You will spend much much much much less and you will have a much much better system with years of development and much safer

Safety is the real issue here, that forum got hacked already once, and if bitcoin become more important, you can expect more hacks, so using a SAFE forum is of the upmost importance
4258  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Blocks stays on 0 in my client on: October 06, 2011, 12:19:29 PM
You don't receive bitcoins, i mean, they are already in your wallet.

But, to be able to see and use them you need to download all the blocks, why it isn't downloading? Well it's related to the fact you have only 2 connections, there is a problem with it, probably a closed port that stop your client from downloading the blockchain.
4259  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin7.com 'hacked'. Database and wallets 'stolen' on: October 06, 2011, 12:05:20 PM
And BTC/USD went down to 4.60 right away.

Until people (especially exchanges owners) start to take security more seriously, Bitcoin will not take off.

Creating an exchange that doesn't have bank-grade or better level of security is a complete waste of time.
Uh?

Wake up, the exchange was a scam...
4260  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin7.com 'hacked'. Database and wallets 'stolen' on: October 06, 2011, 05:40:22 AM
Scam.

And everyone who used it deserve to lost their coins.  Wink

I see there were troubles https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=44390.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=45307.0 , but scam?

Sorry to all the users.

I hope all the exchanges learn from whatever mistakes were made that could have been prevented here.
Yesterday i wrote that:

The lesson I learned from the Mybitcoin scam was to never use another online wallet again.  It doesn't matter how secure the wallet is, there is nothing preventing the owner from walking away with all your money.  Remember, Bitcoin has absolutely no property rights. This is a huge downfall that will have to be addressed before widespread adoption can take place. Until then, secure your coins yourself.  The client isn't that hard to use and now has encrypted wallets.  And this forum is full of ways to securely back up wallets.

The client is the problem.    You can't access it easily from your mobile phone,  your work computer if you have it installed at home,  etc.

MyBitCoin was a complete scam...    but just because you had that doesn't mean that every freaking bitcoin company out there is a scam...   Is Mt.Gox a scam?  Tradehill a scam? 


Oh, i've read that SO many times in the market forum of EVE Online.

And everytime a new scam appeared. Not only that, but each time they scammed more and more money. And yet they are "yes but not everything is a scam", and people keep investing...erh...getting scammed.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46897.msg558689#msg558689

And guess what, i was right. The same tactic saved me from all scams in EVE Online, while other people...well, the last big scam in EVE, some months ago, scammed over a trillion of billions of ISK. Funny thing: a lot of ppl were saying that it was a scam, but that didn't stop them from finding fools to scam.
