I kind of agree. If you buy a silkroad seller's account through TOR no one (theoretically) knows who you are.
If you buy a silkroad seller's account on the open internet, the seller knows who you are (or at least you're traceable) and could be LEO.

What sorts of wares did you list with this account? I'm not interested in buying an account tainted with drug listings.

I just downloaded pywallet and did "pywallet.py --dumpwallet". It was a real eye-opener.

OK in bitcoin-qt I have 4 addresses. 2 of them have no transactions and 2 do. My balance according to bitcoin-qt is 25.41034921 BTC.
According to blockchain.info, address #1 has 24.99248018 BTC and address #2 has 0.12402675 BTC, totalling 25.11650693. I double checked the 2 empty addresses against blockchain.info and they're both 0 BTC with no transactions.
I appear to have 0.29384228 BTC more than I should.
Short of exhaustively going through all 685 transactions and reconciling them against blockchain.info, any suggestions?

Much of my argument is academic anyway. As someone pointed out earlier as you add more and more security checks managing them becomes more and more unwieldy.
The sensible approach is to cull the universe of checks down to a small managable set that gets most of the problems. This browser fingerprint approach might very well be useful or it may not. You may also find it's not worth the hassle and stick with the 5 other things that work reasonably well.

Dude, first ditch reaper and get one of the more mainstream miners.
Your problem is probably due to having the intensity too high. That'll slow down the CPU on your PC.

Are people really going to go through that much effort to get an extra 0.001 BTC/day? Maybe a few, but most won't. As giantdragon says, each step of difficulty means fewer people will be doing it. It won't eliminate cheating completely, from those who are very persistent about it, but it helps deter some cheaters.
It's like saying, why bother building a fence around your property? People can still hop the fence and get in. Why bother putting barbed wire on top of a fence? People can still put heavy clothes on top of it to get over it. Or they can cut through the chain link fence. Therefore, we shouldn't build fences at all.
That's fine until the Russian mob sends the commandos over to cut through your cyber chain link fence and get at your goodies.

Same for me. My wallet and blockchain.info differ by a small amount. I have only 1 address specified in my wallet.
No change addresses? I probably spoke too soon. I'll check it when I get home and report back.

I got to lolz at the Bane Capital pseudonym.
Reminds me of "The Ballad of William Bloat": In a mean abode on the Shankill Road Lived a man named William Bloat; He had a wife, the bane of his life, Who always got his goat.

I meant for oclvanitygen. For instance I use "oclvanitygen -d0 1abcdef" to use my 6770 GPU. I get around 12 Mkeys/sec this way.

What GPU devices do you have? What's your command line?

This is really like the whole Y2K thing if anyone else here is old enough to remember it.
Who really know what will happen to mining when the block reward halves? Who know what impact BFL SCs will have (or if they'll even ship)?
In 6 months it'll be old news whatever happens.

Worse than the hardware issues is that you may have arrived at the party after all the girls have already left.
What do you mean? If I ordered now while in preorder, I'll be with all the cool girls on a boat. If I wait, I might miss that margin to make a good amount of profit before it's halves. I know there is still a lot of speculation on the actual delivery date of this units and most are saying at the first of 2013. Also, Will BFL's refund my money if the end of the world happens? I mean mining is becoming less and less profitable. Also you won't be getting any BFL SC hardware before the halving happens sometime in late November or early December. Regarding your last question: LAWL

Just as the stupidity of humanity never fails to amaze (viz pirate pyramid) so too for human ingenuity. Any technological advance can be countered given sufficient motivation.

How much of a threat is quantum computing at the moment.
Strictly speaking, at the moment, quantum computing isn't a threat (or of use) to anyone since it's still nothing more than a science experiment.

your ass in the pool, the last six months, every day some problems, but now do not pay BTC
Sounds oddly like a non-compliant haiku.

I have a naive question. Why join some little p2pool server when I can just join p2pool directly? I never got this.
