Check that you don't have a text editor with the file open. IIRC Macs don't actually close the program when you click the x so it might still be open.

You should enable pruning. This will delete the vast majority of the historical blockchain and free up a lot of space for you. Just add this line to the bitcoin.conf file:

No. It can and will use any previously downloaded data and your previously used wallets as it did before.

No, not only the checksum is affected. The entire pubkeyhash is completely different without that character. Try it yourself with https://gobittest.appspot.com/Address

The address is completely and absolutely invalid. If the transaction even exists, then the address will not be the one he thinks it is.

What is the txid of the transaction?

Your wallet is broken. It should not allow you to send to the address with a character missing because that is not a valid address. It is invalid, the transaction is invalid, which is why the transaction is not confirmed.

What wallet are you using?

It should not cause it to become corrupted. Just make sure that both Bitcoin Core and Armory are not running and that you don't have an antivirus that is scanning that data.

Should be able to.

Your fee is not enough. You are paying ~26 satoshis/byte. The current recommended fee is 100 satoshis/byte according to http://bitcoinfees.21.co/

Simply increasing the key space of the hash to say, 512 bits, would provide us the same security as 256 bits does today. Hashcash would not be dead, we would just need to have larger key spaces.

The difficulty and the block size have nothing to do with each other. Do not conflate the issues.

Did you check the file permissions? It should be under the "security" tab of the properties dialog. You need to make sure that your user account can write to that file.

If you look at the link, it has a ?redirect on the end of it. If you remove that and then go to the link, the page will just show you the address.

It's just like being able to email yourself. It's useful for saving things that you might need (like a stock response). I have also found this useful for doing some testing with BBCode but without having to make a thread.

The one that is accepted is the one that other miners build on top of. The propagation does matter, but if no miner builds on top of the block, then even if it has propagated very well, the block can still be orphaned.

In theory you could do this. You would have to modify the block verification logic to check for ViaBTC's addresses or their "signature" in the coinbase script. Then you could reject the block as invalid and thus prevent your node from relaying the block.

It's failing to add a key to your wallet. Check your permissions on that wallet.dat file and make sure that your user can both read and write to it.

Also check that you have enough disk space and that the drive isn't full.

Try again but with -salvagewallet instead.

Can you also post the entire debug.log?

Use the latest versions (0.94.1 and Core 0.13.0). They work.

Start Bitcoin Core with the -upgradewallet option. See https://achow101.com/2016/07/Bitcoin-Core-Troubleshooting#option-startup for help with that.

There is no date on your ban; you are permanently banned. Any accounts that you use to post or PM will also be banned (with the exception of this ban appeal thread). You will not be unbanned.

PM spam is very different from normal spam. It is handled by the admins, not mods.

I have decided to close down the website. The project and this thread remains open for whoever wishes to run their own site.

Today I am announcing another project of mine.

Bitcoin Tipping Addresses lets you enter in a BIP 32 Extended Public Key or a list of addresses and it will give you some code that you can embed on any website, forum, github, or Reddit. This code will always show the next address in the list that has not received any Bitcoin. It lets you not need to reuse addresses for receiving donations.

The website is https://bittipaddress.com

How It Works

You simply enter a BIP 32 Extended Public key or a list of addresses that you want to use. Then you get code that you can embed on any website, forum, github, or reddit. This code links back to the server which will either display the correct address or provide a redirect to the Bitcoin URI of the latest empty address.

You can also change the addresses afterwards if necessary. You will receive an ID and a password which will allow you to edit the parameters of your unit.

Embedded code

There are three codes that you can embed. Here are examples of the three. Currently only HTML will show the actual address. The BBCode and Reddit ones will only show a link to a Bitcoin URI which will open the wallet for the user.

HTML (websites and most Markdowns):

BBCode (forums):
