Can someone explain how to mine namecoins? Is it through a pool like bitcoins or what?
Does it have to be done through command line or is there a client for it?
Do namecoins expire? I'm sure I heard something about them expiring? Or is that just the domains?
Thanks!
Mining namecoins is EXACTLY like mining bitcoin No they don't expire, just domains Where do I get started? As in where are the pools? I only know one of them out of about 3 or 4: http://bitparking.com/poolJust run namecoind to have a Namecoin address, then you can mine |

How many people here would put thousands of dollars into mining equipment vs bitcoins?
If you think bitcoins will rise in value, both are good investments, but I would like to hear the debate between the 2 separate camps.
It's not really a good question. The choice comes down to what you think the price of bitcoins is likely to do and what your risk tolerance is (one question is pure speculation and the other very individual). Mining is lower risk because your capital equipment has resale value, but the profitability of mining (particularly right now) is pretty low. Buying bitcoin outright carries a far higher risk. If you think the price of bitcoin is going to rise quickly in the near term and you can tolerate the risk, you're better off just buying bitcoins. If you think the price is going to hold steady or rise moderately for a long while, you may be better off mining. If you think the price is going to steadily decline, don't buy or mine (unless you can buy some mining hardware on the cheap due to other selling out). If you think the price is about to collapse, sell all your bitcoins and mining equipment fast! When you do the calculations for mining, make sure you're doing your accounting as if you sell every last bitcoin mined as it is mined (even if you intend to keep some or all of your mined bitcons). The reason is that when you hold them, you are now investing directly in bitcoin and speculating on the future value. You don't need mining equipment for that, you could more easily just buy the bitcoins you would have mined. This |

I found an error (which was not here before I believe): When I use the case-insensitive flag, Namecoin addresses are seen beginning with a 'n', which is not possible with the 52 addrtype Then this is what I got: Prefix 'n1d' not possible
Hint: valid namecoin addresses begin with "M" or "N" I tried to modify that in your code, but didn't find where to change that |

Lynx FTW btw
Hey, I just saw the 2nd part of your message. How do the exchanges run in lynx? They don't, that's why I had to vote for Firefox too  |

I would prefer to marry a woman who has never heard of bitcoin.
When the inevitable divorce comes, she will have no idea what the hell a bitcoin is, and know much less how to take half of them!
as a married man, i have to agree with that..... I bet she doesn't lurk here |

Ok I think I see the problem Run '.\pywallet.py --dumpwallet --datadir m:\bitcoin\old\' Does it looks like that: (don't post it) {
"addr": "1lqksjiqsidj",
"hexsec": "kkjqsdsd",
"reserve": 1,
"sec": "5vkkqsjdnqs"
}
],
"tx": "unsupported",
"version": 32500
}
If not, run 'python pywallet.py --dumpwallet --datadir m:\bitcoin\old\' |
