You might want to try to get longpolling activated.

Or, better yet, one on IRC and ask mtrlt or someone more knowledgable than me.

Interesting.

I think SolidCoin price will go up some more.

Since the block reward is currently only the transaction fee and any fees that come along with some extra, there isn't much inflation.

I think it will just make it more fun to sell things for SolidCoins.

But it will be very interesting to see what happens with SolidCoin v3. Going to be more user friendly, so maybe more buyers will be out there.

Have you tried the newer (0.6) version of Litecoin?

That sounds cool.

Are there any shirt designs already?

I'll have to try that on my Atom N450.

Currently (with an earlier version of pooler's cpuminer), I get about 2.17 khash/s on 1 thread (OS: Debian 7 32 bit).

Then when I do 2 threads, I get about 2.30 khash/s.

I wonder what 64 bit Debian + the new cpuminer will provide...

How do you plan to get the user information other than occasional slipping or announcements or bribery?

If someone truly wishes to be anonymous, they won't use a real name if you try to bribe them. They won't say what the bitcoin address is. And they won't confirm that an address is theirs.

So are you sure it would really work?

Maybe it would be best to look into different miners if you only want 1 window or 1 tab.

I think mtrlt's reaper is capable of doing multiple GPUs in only 1 shell/terminal window.

I don't think it is even needed for some miners.

Just make sure that you can download the blockchain (sync with the network) and that the address is correct (please verify the address because there have been some address changing malware out there)

Basically it was most likely expected that you did all of that in  a folder in your home folder called "bitcoin" and the DiabloMiner folder is in /home/peter/bitcoin.

So then you would have done cd path/to/DiabloMiner if it was different.

But as said earlier... it is kind of risky to trust unofficial releases that are not from the original author of the program. Especially if no source code is published to check against viruses.

Are you also wanting it to have random payouts (such as 1 btc at a random time then 0.1 btc at another random time then 0.001 and 0.00025 btc)?

Yes it is the same question and in a different thread, but if all of the miners stopped mining, the difficulty would drop making it less time till you get a block.
Then when you start mining, you would get the transaction fees and help get the difficulty to the speed that your computer goes. So you would get your transaction processed and you would pick up transaction fees along the way.

Now to step back into reality... Bitcoin has just grown too big to have 0 miners at any period of time from 2012 onward. It might eventually die or it might keep going, which if it dies in terms of mining, chances are, you wouldn't need to get any transactions through (unless you are selling to the bitcoin collecter, which then he would probably run a miner so bitcoin would not be dead).

If the hashrate suddenly drops, it will be slow transactions until the difficulty recalculates. Then it is back as fast as it was.

LiquidCoin mining isn't profitable but yet it still has some dedicated miners, so there wouldn't be much of a chance that bitcoin would just stop all transactions and 0 hash/s

Perhaps it would be best to use an exchange address (like vircurex or btc-e) for an online wallet for now?

IIRC, the coins will all be mined in 2140 or so.

I've just went through and entered an address from StrongCoin in dailybitcoins and coinad. Now time to see if something actually comes.

Just out of curiosity... Are the address you are sending to and the Strongcoin address the same?

The ugly truth

Just a little advice... You might want to only send small amounts (maybe 0.1 BTC or 1 BTC) for the first transaction to verify that the service is legit.

I think it is interesting how people keep losing money that way.

I don't really think there's much that you can do about safely selling bitcoins online at other than dedicated exchanges (like BTC-e or vircurex).

It might be possible to find a buyer offline, which would allow you to still sell bitcoins without Paypal being involved.

Just out of curiosity, is there a reason why you didn't sell the coins at a dedicated exchange?

Blocks are to keep being mined as long as Bitcion stays alive.

Now after all of the BTC is generated (21 million), there might be blocks still being mined (if people haven;t lost interest, and bitcoin is still alive and miners are still going or something hasn't replaced mining all together). Those blocks are only paid for using transaction fees.

But as far as anyone living in this century would really care about... There are currently coins being generated (unless you are reading this in 2140 or later).

They are currently paying less than 0.001 BTC per day 

So for those of you who would have it go to an exchange... it might not be added to the account.

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a big endian or PowerPC (Apple PowerPC, not IBM PowerPC) compatible cpuminer for bitcoin.

I don't think I got valid shares when using one of the cpuminers.

But for some reason, I am able to successfully mine using a Litecoin miner (such as pooler's CPU miner or ssvb's CPU miner with PowerPC optimizations).


Anyone know of a Bitcoin CPU miner that works on Apple PowerPC?
