By the way, I'm the person who wrote the sign message functionality you're talking about...

Dude, calm down lol. The person who sent the coins sends him a signed message with the address and that's it. Problem solved.
There are only signed messages proving you are the receiver, nothing for proving you're the sender.
I can send coins to you and sign a message with my address. 
Your address has nothing to do with you sending me coins...

Are we talking about the same type of address here?  Grin lol. You will see my address in your transactions. Then I'll sign a message.  I proved that I own the address's private key.
The only address on the transaction would be my address.
(And maybe a change address for the wallet controlling the funds, but that doesn't identify a sender either.)

Except there's no way for people to prove they sent bitcoins to someone...
then how does this all work LOL
When someone wants to buy something, they send you their shipping address, then you give them a bitcoin address to pay.
The only way to know what was paid for, is to provide a unique address for each payment (or at least person)...

At this point, I'm guessing maybe you're just new? Maybe reading these pages will help: Address reuse and From address
Slow down there, cowboy. This would have been a transaction for $4 and you come out of nowhere suggesting its a scam. Then you just become a pain in the ass. Stop trolling. With all due respect, don't comment on my posts if you only have something stupid to say.
I'm suggesting it's a scam because there is no way for you to fulfil your end of the bargain when two people claim to have paid for it, but only one actually sent you bitcoins.

Edit: unless you're prepared to mail 2*number-of-people-claiming-they-paid coins...

This kinda has to be a scam, since the poster has no way to know who actually sent the bitcoins...
huh? I made the original linked post...did you even look at it?
I read your post "first one to send .01BTC to the address in my sig", but you have no way to know who that is.

Peter Todd seems to have an axe to grind with Blockstream, so I'd take it with a grain of salt.
I'm not aware of any pool deals Austin is making, though it would make sense for him to be talking to pools about supporting merged-mined sidechains.
AFAIK he's not been in touch with wizkid057 on this topic, nor tried to negotiate any pool "deals" through me.

Disclosure: While I only represent myself, not the company as a whole, I am personally working with Blockstream.

this boy is trolling hard..trolling is not agaisnt the rules?
Are you kidding? BitcoinTalk is almost exclusively trolling these days.

Will this release work with the RockMiner R-Box New 100-110 Gh/s miner?
No, still waiting for more details from them on the changes.

I'm just glad the pool works!  Now if only Bitmain would fix the S4 so I can point it here and get the hash I'm suppose to be getting, it'd be a good day.

Do you have other hashpower pointed here?  Maybe run a stratum proxy and point your hashpower through it ... and once the proxy difficulty gets up to 1024, point your S4(s) to it.

M

Thanks for the suggestion.  I've got the S-4s pointed to CK until this gets resolved.  I've still got my dragons pointed here.  I was spoiled early on, so these current payouts really aren't a big deal if I miss a couple.
I'd suggest asking Bitmain to switch to BFGMiner, which can request a (starting) difficulty from Eligius among many other benefits.
They sent a S1 for development a long time ago, but never followed up with documentation or future products.
I can only guess they believe there might be a lack of demand - in which case their customers need to be more vocal in expressing the need to them.

An irony here is that many in the community think you are both Juke-Jr and wizkid057.
Hm, I guess it's possible  Shocked  I've never actually met wizkid057 in meatspace.
On the other hand, only trolls seem to seriously believe that, so he's probably real.

Hi Guys  Grin
But, what about the idea.

Just shut up already
577  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: The Mining Incentive on: October 18, 2014, 09:21:55 PM
He's been spamming #kncminer for a few weeks now...

Also, no sign he is mining Bitcoins, so this is totally off-topic here Smiley

From the "shoddily made flow chart", this algorithm looks like essentially a more complex and simpler (in different ways) version of scrypt, just with very high memory requirements.
It is probably just as weak to ASICs, though I can't say for sure without more information.
Do actual specifications exist for the algorithm?
Also, is anyone interested in doing a BFGMiner port I can merge?

This algo mines via hdd capacity. Only way an asic would be useful is during the plotting process, but that's not a mining process.
It doesn't have to be a HD, it could just as well be (a lot of) RAM.
This is essentially the same way scrypt works, except scrypt altcoins aren't using as much capacity.

It's possible to do RAMDisk, but that's not a very cost effective way of mining. You would need a bunch of TB worth of RAM to mining with as oppose to cheaply doing it with HDDs. You try it out and give the results if it is worth it.
Yes, you can do the same thing with scrypt...
