Is  any  one  using the  IRC. i only  seee the  channel  bot   sitting  there  alone.

People  start  using   it, Its  better   and   a   good  way to  connect  with  people.

The  utah center is a  mostly a  data   storage and   analysis   facility, that means  they are  using  alot  of   servers generating  alot  of  heat . In that hot  climate  the NSA data  center  is   inviting   a  huge   power  bill  for  cooling, and a  accident   in the  making  if  one  of the   cooling   unites   starts to  fail. and  any  ways the NSA  facility   did  have    some   huge  explosion  because of  wrong  power systems  being  used. It  still makes   verry  little   sense  on  why  they  would open  a   facility  there. 

 Regarding  tapping the oceanic Fiber  line  those  were  being  tapped  ever  since  the  cold  war using   Nuclear  subs.  At the moment  THE  US and  China  is  the  two  major  powers  that  have  tapped   and  control the  underseas fiber  line.

Why wait for quantum computing.?
Have you seen the NSA datacenter in Utah, USA.?

Have a look.. google it.. they have so much of abundant computing power that rumors are that they have broken SSL and VPN (client certificate authentication like Openvpn) encryption.
Am not sure if they have been successful in breaking AES 256 and probably not SHA256 though.

If they had, then probably they would have brought down bitcoin network instead of going behind SR.

That might  already have it .  who knows.

But the  Data  Center in  Utah, is  some thing only an idiot  would  build. who  builds a  data  center  in  a  middle  of a   freaking  desert and   spend  so much on cooling.  they  would  have  been  better  off   building  that center  in Alaska.

oh  the  SHA256 is a hash  function  so  it  is   reversible. AES yes  NSA  must  have  broken it a long  time  ago. with NSA its  a simple  rule  if  you cant  break it   then  get a  backdoor  installed in it.

Any foreseeable damage that may be caused to sha256/ Bitcoin before the cipher can be changed?
And any idea if quantum-crypto can be used for Bitcoin instead of sha?



Well regarding  SHA256, i  dont  think  that is  going  to be  any  damage to bitcoin, and the need  to change is not  nessary, if Bitcoin  is allowed to  progress with  its  difficulty level in proportionate to  tech  advancement, and  mass  adoption. The  difficulty  level  rise,  would adjust  for the  rapid  change  in  new  technology, and  not  need for  a  change in cipher.

Regarding  your  second  question.  NO.  (my personal  opinion).
It  would  rather  be a fork of a  new  currency that would only  be using Quantum cryptography and  this  would  only be  compatible  with Quantum computers. so all the  mechanics need  to have  the  Qchip. as for the  use  of  bitcoin  to  integrate  with  Quantum computing  that is a possibility, so bitcoins  can  be  backward compatible. but all these  things  are  a   far  in the  future, it  may be  possible  that Bitcoin  may  die out before Quantum  computing  can  even  be a  viable  consumer  product.

On  a  side  note  before  quantum  computing  comes in  i  believe  the  new Nanotube  chips will be  the  next  evolution as it  has  been  fabricated into a 9nm chips. its only a mater of time  that  these carbon  nano tube  chips  becomes  standard in all hardware.

As  soon as  Quantum computing becomes  cheap enough all  hell  is  going  to  break loose when it  comes  to  public  key cryptography. 

I've heard people say this before, but can't we just add more encryption bits?  True, 256-bit, 512-bit is too low.  What about a million bit encryption?  Quantum computing will only be a problem if just a few people have these computers.  If they are mainstream then there is a level playing field once again.


it is not question of adding bits,

but question of practicality. you can encrypt your message 100s of times with diff ciphers, each time use different password not less then 90 characters and your message will be "Hello John !!"

Well there have been  works on  quantum cryptography using  single  photons that would greatly increase the  probability level, and the  establishment of the Standard model and the proof  of the Higgs Boson may  play a  big part in the creation of a practical cryptography system that can  be used in the  future  once  Public key cryptography and block ciphers becomes obsolete .

Yeh ! what you say would work, but the problem is that for such computing power to reach the masses, will take  a long time. an estimated  point would be  some where around 30 years. Till that time the  government or  companies that have the most money, would be the  ones able to afford it.

We already know that google has just got their first Quantum computer. If google can get it then there is nothing stopping Big government  getting it.  Even if  we say the governments will take another 5 years to acquire a  quantum computer, that still leaves a  huge gap of about 10-15 years that government/companies can use their  Qcomputers effectively.

We have a social networking site coming up with Chat and IM features.
Shoot me or Benson a PM for Invite.

Thanks,

Sub has been invited. I do like the IRC idea as well for sure. More the exposure and discussions, the better.

Integration of IRC and abitsocial chat?Huh? That could be a good shot in the arm for it.

yeh that can be done there are a lot of web based IRC clients that can be added to the site .

Thanks,

IRC is an open channel. i would  say its better. i can use a  chat  software connect to  this  channel and other  channel i  usually  work on. Its convenient..

I'm old school :-)   


Good for you mate.. Been there done that.! :-p
Long long ago, i used to be a Mod on #India on MIRC and Operator of #Bangalore and #Mysore.

O wow Cool ,i  think we may know each other  i was  an OPs on DALnet and a few other networks #india channel about  15 years  back.
Those  were the good times .

613  Local / India / IRC Channel for Bitcoin in India. on: October 28, 2013, 02:43:51 AM
Hey every  one.

So is decided  to  start  a  IRC channel  for  Bitcoin in India.  so this channel  will be  dedicated to  Indian  users, every  thing bitcoin  related.

I will be  adding a  bot  soon for  maintenance  of the channel, as soon as a  free up one of  my  shell account.

Feel free to uses it  and connect  better  with  every one.  

The Channel is hosted  on Freenode
chat.freenode.net      6697
Channel name -  #taproom

https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#taproom


Or  just use the  webchat.   https://webchat.freenode.net/

if you have strong PGP keys non of your correspondents will be able to use them. People who on MAC and Windows PGP (GPG) frontends will not be able to use any good public key. So, what you going to do? You are going to give them weak key.

for now PGP with good key too costly to break, also 3DES still OK with long pass.

voting for AES was influenced toward Rijandel so use of AES256 maybe not a good idea.

Well the  problem with the  block  ciphers Like Rijandel and AES, is  that the key  exchange  becomes  a  problem when it  comes  to  two  way  communication. Yeh,  you  can  use Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, but that's just  adding an extra  layer. ECC is a  better  option  for now. But then again  all this is  only  valid  for the next  20-25 years. As  soon as  Quantum computing becomes  cheap enough all  hell  is  going  to  break loose when it  comes  to  public  key cryptography.  We already  have   carbon  nano tubes  shrinking  processor  chips  down.  Moore's law is  still  alive and kicking.

It is just an accounting error.....I have designed 50 mgs,100,200,300,400& 500 milligrams GOLDCARDS Costing Rs.144/- for a 50 mg card;
  For details go to www.milligold.org

This  looks like a  spam.  DONT DO IT  AGAIN !!!

Go  to the  Marketplace  announce  you  new  business there.  add you  business on  your  signature, not on the posts.

At the  moment  there  are  no  active  exchange  markets catering  to the INR. however  there are   alot  of  individual Exchanges Find  them  on the  marketplace  of this   forum.
for  Ripple just  post your  requirement on the marketplace. Use an  Escrow.

Very nice. Will eventually do a French translation for my website and not forget to give you original credit.

Thanks  ,  would  love to  see that ,

Ok, Section 4  - Asymmetrical Cryptosystem.   Updated,  will  add some  more  later  in the  day  today .  

  Any one who has   any  suggestion  please   do put it in, will  try  to  add them  too :-)
