He is saying that the client encrypt only a part of the wallet.dat. If you steal a client-encrypted wallet.dat you can read how many bitcoins it have. And if you find a wallet with a LOT of btc it can be worth to try to bruteforce it.

What if it's super popular and such? I know it can be divided, and a single Satoshi is 10^-8, but capping out make it seem more like real estate to me than currency.
It can be divided more than 10^-8, so, don't worry

Sadly still not working on W2k  Cry

Are you joking? windows 2000 in 2011? Ehi i have a copy of windows 3.1 somewhere, are you interested in it?  Roll Eyes

The fact that the client doesn't work with w2k is a GOOD THING.

Established? Check how many computers there were in 1995, then 2000 and then check for 2011

Also ok you had a computer but what could you do with it? Much less things than today. And no smartphones at all.

It fits the model of gold better. Gold doesn't get lost with no chance of being found again.

Why did Satoshi cap gold at 21 million? Was it arbitrary?

Yes I know the argument, any amount of a money is sufficient.

One benefit is it will keep the bounty on mining high, making it so that people will continue to drive the difficulty level high, making the block chain more secure. It does that without inflating.

Ahahah, this is so false! What about gold in ship that sank? What about the gold used in technological things? Good luck recover gold in billions of hardware around the world, and so on...

I got it like in 2000

Very easy, beenz was created in 1998. How many people had a connection to internet back then? Or better, how many people had a computer?? Or better, how many people knew what a computer is in 1998? (like oh it's the thing they have in universities and in nasa)


Do you realize that the image technically prove my point?  Cheesy

Sure, i too had a computer with windows 95 (and before 3.1) but no internet connection.

The system is very good but nvidia is bad for bitcoin mining.

You will have low mhash/s, but not so low. And no bsod too... so something is wrong. i think it's something related to drivers

Do you used new opencl miner or new cuda miner in guiminer? File->new miner->choose

Question is, what determines the price of BTC in the exchange? If it's related to the difficulty and the price is adjusted according to it then I see no point.



Easy, it's based on how much people spend to buy bitcoins from someone else.

4312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Beenz vs Bitcoin on: September 20, 2011, 06:33:15 PM
And a lot of the dot com bubble things went poof for the same reason: nice idea but very few ppl able to use it

The same ideas today, with pc, netbook and smartphones all connected to internet, would work much much better

why will bitcoin succeed where Beenz failed with $100,000,000 in VC backing?

So you had no computer so you used beenz...mhh... no you couldn't.

And let's go buy something, i take my smartphone and i pay...no wait, smartphone in 1998? No.


I had a computer back then but no internet connection.

There is only one risk, and that is inflation. Since America's core inflation is 3.8% then this is not a real issue.

3.8% now

If they start printing tons of dollars to pay all the debts then inflation skyrocket, or better, more than skyrocket, it directly light it's Warp drive to go faster than light; a dollar will be worth nothing, less than the cost of the paper used to make it.

To move bitcoin you need an address.

If you want to move them in mtgox you can register an account on them and move them there.

Or if you want you can install the bitcoin client and you will get as many address as you wish, if you use that then the bitcoins will be stored in your wallet.dat file.

IF YOU LOSE THAT FILE YOU LOSE THE BITCOINS INSIDE IT, so backup it and pay attention that NO ONE STEAL IT, otherwise they can move the bitcoins to another address and then there is no way to recover them.
