I'm curious about something.
Almost 24 hours ago I sent a transaction of 0.07 btc (without a fee) to one of my other computers to a different "account"/wallet and still after nearly 24 hours it says 0/unconfirmed.
I have the whole blockchain downloaded and 32 connections and on the receiving computer I have 8 connections and the whole blockchain. The funny thing is that I successfully sent even smaller amounts to the same computer (also without any fee) and got these pretty fast while is was waiting for the 0.07 btc transaction to get trough.
I don't know how to find the transaction hash when using the standard gui bitcoin client. But the address I tried to send the 0.07 is 1KCJ79R4CexWmqK6qa2HBeFv8bG3a3wAfX.
0.07 btc is not a big deal really, but I'm just curious, I know that a transaction can take some time but I never have to wait like ≥ 24 hours before even when being to greedy not to pay any fee. Have I been very lucky every time I sent small transactions without using fees and these have went trough pretty fast? Or am I experiencing some kind of trouble or should I just have more patience and have another cup of coffee?
Those weren't two separate bitcoin faucet dispersions were they? 0.05 + 0.02 = 0.07? ಠ_ಠ

Just curious. Voting closes in 2 months.

Incredible stuff guys!
Remember, the more people who know about bitcoin, the better.
And the more people who have money/time/effort invested in bitcoin, even BETTER!
I didn't need any drugs or alcohol to convince my friends. I simply showed them the alexa graph, and the price graph, and weusecoins.com, and they were convinced pretty quickly.

Do some math. Depending on how many more BTC you could earn from selling them over the next few months (until it becomes almost impossible for even GPUs to mine any).
I re-invested some.

I am not surprised in the least.
With Bitcoin's anonymous nature, it is inevitable that scammers and frauds will infiltrate the marketplace.
Those with the most common sense (and paranoia) will prevail!

No, but I don't have many.

If you hear voices often, this method is for you!

You should use silk road market for that The moralfags on here will complain like they usually do. No complaints. So long as it's legal, which medicinal marijuana is, go ahead.

Watch the number of bumps you do gpurig...
I gave vladimir shit for it, so I can't let you slide.
If you have something to add, simply update your main post please... if your product is popular, people will talk about it and bump your thread on their own.
Again, please do not bump your thread unless somebody specifically asks you a question/etc... the marketplace is already too overcrowded.

On may 4th Shane Smith of nanaimo gold informed me my money order for $999 of BTC @ 2.9 had been received but he didn't have the bitcoins to actually send. (He claimed it was other peoples fault instead of his which is weird since he buys and sells bitcoins). Anyways we have been back and forth for 8 days and I still have no bitcoins and no idea where my money is. DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE.
Wow, is this legit?

I am up to about 3 maybe 4 people after tonight. Convinced the lot of them to buy a 1Ghps system and I set it up for them for free. If you show them weusecoins.com as an intro and then bitcoincharts.com and explain the mining process, it's a surprisingly easy sell even to non-techies. Because really, who wants to be rich when all their friends are poor? Make your friends rich too, people! (I have taken due diligence and informed them all that bitcoins could be worth $0 tomorrow, and that it's a risky investment). Nobody wants to be friendless either

giraffe.heliacal.net is also known as irc.lfnet.org PING giraffe.heliacal.net (92.243.23.21): 56 data bytes PING irc.lfnet.org (92.243.23.21): 56 data bytes
Laszlo runs that IRC chat server, and bitcoin uses it to "bootstrap" to find other machines running bitcoin. Unless you run with the -noirc switch, in which case it won't -- it will try to connect via a list of compiled-in 'seed nodes' (which I'll try really hard to remember to recruit somebody to update for the next release). After you've run bitcoin once, it stores nodes you were able to connect with in the addr.dat file, so you can run -noirc just fine. But if everybody did that, newbies who just downloaded bitcoin would have a hard time finding people to connect with. Why do we not simply use the default irc.lfnet.org? Could we perhaps use a .bit domain in the future?

So I have this Python library. It does what Satoshi's client doesn't.
Custom scripts? Sure. Redeem weird transactions? Okay. Odd block-acceptance rules? No problem. Being a douche and sending your transactions to hundreds of nodes at a time? :/ okay.
Is there interest?
Definitely interested. The more tools we can use to prove bitcoin's strength the better.

That said I think we should be bumping up the block size sooner rather than later. Agreed. Why not build Bitcoin so that it doesn't need to scale from the start?

Really great show guys.
I'm half way through it right now.
Very informative and interesting points.
Did Gavin mention that all 21 million BTC will be released over the next 140 years earlier in the video? Maybe 5-10 minutes in? Perhaps I simply heard wrong...

A good quote I once heard went something like this...
"A man who dreams of what he will spend his millions on, will never acquire a million dollars."
More of a proverb I suppose. Think about it.

I invite any pool owners to post details about their recent DDOS attempts so that we can all better protect against them.
+1 Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd, cue silence. I guess most of us are just in this for the quick money then..? Helping out other pools means yours makes a little less BTC per day, but will almost guarantee you don't threaten bitcoin by acquiring 50% market share.
