that leaves 5 unpaid.
john is, as i've said, going to submit the order immediately upon getting the info from friedcat. we are all set to go.
i've also picked up another hub so i can test 21 of these at a time. better then the 5 i was at... and of course, when i say test, i mean plug it in, run it for 1 share, then pack it.
Oh, testing against DoA parts, nice. Was not expecting that as part of the deal. Now some of these other posts have me thinking about final getting rid of the stock firmware on my router. |

Wish I could remember the address from my FRC there. I was just rading 840 coins on there a couple days ago, then I turned it into anout 890 FRC. I wonder if it's all gone. Anyone have a decent guide on how to store dev/IX coin on cold storage? Seems complicated without a GUI wallet.
Then why not just use the GUI client? |

oes.
I ruled out networking issues, I updated the client to the latest available from bitcoin.org, I have 17 active connections.
This thread is starting to move to a 0.8.2rc thead. By latest available is that the one you mean? From https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=201124.0 ? |

This is not a scientific test by any means, but I just looked on Facebook to see how many "likes" Bitcoin has. The top page is Bitcoin Users Org with 244,755 likes. Compare this with something like "Dogs" with 6,509,886 and it is almost comical. Of course, many of us here understand the value of anonymity. My husband advised me to be quiet about our BTC holdings. Who knows, some day just a handful could be worth millions so it might be better not to "Like" it on Facebook and announce to the world we have some. There may be some of us that choose not to "Like" it for that reason alone. Or most of the people using BTC do not use Facebook? That could be the case too.
But does the small number of "likes" hint at the fact that we are still very early adopters in this? Just thinking. . .
I am in the majority of people in the world that do not use facebook. As I understand it, it has a real name policy. I can also be pretty sure that I would not 'like' bitcoin on it even if I was on it as I don't want to have to answer questions from potential client sand such about why I liked an 'underground' 'hackers' currency, as I have heard some of them call it. |

BDB is still used for the wallets. Making it optional for the blockchain had far too much testing risk, as inconsistencies in blockchain behavior across the network can cause forking problems. Testing just one backed was already hard enough. Six hours sounds like a redownload, not a reindex. Can you provide more information about your OS and hardware? bitcoin also no longer works well when I tell it to store all the data files on my NAS as I like to do from my laptops Yes, this is a known (but not known at the time of 0.8.0's release) issue. I think it would be less risk to have as a fall back then to force all new clients to use a new db engine, especially since you can't force everyone to update at once, it gives you a fall back if issues arise in the new engine behaving differently without having to lose any other improvements. Ah well, too late for that either way. I actually think I could re-download faster then six hours. I definitely could with the older version but 0.8.1 is much slower. The software itself says it is reindexing blocks on disk.. while this happens. The issue is on my windows 7 64bit laptop, i7 Q 820 processor, 8gb ram. NAS is a synology. Works well still with alt chains, but no longer with bitcoin. Any other details that may help? |

So no changes that might fix reliability of the index then?
In particular, two bugs were fixed that would cause crashes and might have cause database corruption on Windows (problem with multiple open files) and MacOSX (running out of file descriptors). These may fix or at least improve the leveldb database reliability problems on these two platforms but we're not sure. Feedback on the RC here would be helpful. E.g. "I had crashes and index corruption before and I am (not) still having them." All right, because 0.8.1 has been usable for me, so I was disappointed to see nothing that indicated fixes in the changes posted. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=184125.0 |

Seems like vircurex is been hacked!
thanks for the info. do btc-e have any more coins left to add? (that's half-joking) Guess you mean aside from the obvious one. |

A tool to implement paying out more than 100% to people merged-mining using p2pool with bitcoin as primary chain and devcoin as one of potentially many (currently about seven or eight or so) secondary chains.
Preferred is to pay them these extra (as in, above and beyond the bitcoins that p2pool sends them automatically in the coinbase transactions of the bitcoin blocks) earnings in the form of devcoins.
The extra payout tool bounty is now official, with a six share for the first developer, then 3 shares for the next. It must be open source, like all other devcoin funded development. Hmm.. I really must be missing something here. Why would someone pay for the servers to run a pool to then pay out more than 100%? |

I will sell you 45000. Remember you won't have fees.
Nope, sorry, I get 48 on exchange for that with fees actually at the time I posted you would have gotten 44xxx Seems the dvc market moves quickly! |

OOPS that second question should be:
Can I partition the nonce and have each core work on a subset?
Yeah, and also even to some extent you can vary nTime. There seems to be one of two routes people are going with this. Either talk over USB to a host or have a complete standalone miner that hooks into your network with Ethernet. If you plan to go the later I would be happy to help package up the embedded software for it. At this stage of things, you are going to want to use Stratum as the protocol to talk to pools. https://docs.google.com/document/d/17zHy1SUlhgtCMbypO8cHgpWH73V5iUQKk_0rWvMqSNs/edit?hl=en_USI would look at https://github.com/m0mchil/poclbm as an example miner as it is not GPLed, unlike the two linked too above. At least until you decide for sure if you want to deal with the GPL. |

I just wish to trade these for Bitcoins or Litecoins at btc-e .. I applied for a NMC loan because its very low risk for the lender, and that is because this currency is almost considered worthless.
Then trade with them & pay back the buyer.
Who knows if anyone who has a stockpile of 3k NMC & loans me that amount & with me exchanging that on BTC-e I might bring in more circulation to this currency & maybe perhaps rise it's value.
I actually rather like my NMC, and they are not so easy to mine anymore. If you want to start out low risk and build some reputation like you say, I would be willing to lend you 5000 devcoins. You would have to sign up at Vircurex using my referral id as part of the deal. You can then prove your abilities to trade and profit and bootstrap like you wanted to with the NMC, just at a lower starting point then you were trying for. |

I think at this point the mining code has been ripped out of the current versions. It may be easier conceptional to go back to a version that was all in one to see the mining all in one source base.

Hmm. it does not yet show I paid. I sent you the txid. Is this just a matter of not updating it yet or should I resend it. I see the instructions have been changed from the pm , and now talk about signing the message with a bitcoin address. I find the current official client unusable ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=184125.0 ) So I sent from a different client, however it does not support signing. Seems this escrow may have gone from zero value to negative value for me. i've been sent several mails without an attached forum name, so i haven't known who to credit. maybe this is it? i'll check my spam folder too. Ah, I sent it in a pm, with a note that I would be emailing you in a day or so with the shipping address. Will email it now also. |

The profitability of this little USB unit is about 0.015BTC per day. (see http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ ) This will last until the next bunch of Asics is released in the comming months. Given the 0.015BTC profitability will diminish fast, every day is important in recouping costs. It should be understood that keeping the order books open will be costing the group about 4.5BTC ($500) a day. That can't be recouped once the difficulty changes.
So processing the order book as soon as possible, is in the best interest of the paid group. While it will be nice to get these as soon as possible, my understanding is that these are not not yet ready to ship out yet. So there is no gain from hurrying right now and closing out earlier. Has this status changed? |

BlockChain saved to the DB in normalized form. It results many file I/O operations.
Can't the many operations be combined into one transaction though? It really is so bad with the thrashing that it is currently unusable for me. Guess I will see soon if the new db helps. |
