hmmmm http://prntscr.com/a6rpcnso either way to have it here I got to re download the hole thing again the one I have loading on my server is now only 4 days behind so nearly finished and I have not used the prune thing on it cause I have lots of space there ill wait for it to finish then just copy the dat file over to it likely only 8EU there anyway but im still hoping that other 50 will turn up in this account what can I use for a lighter copy of my BC account on my home computer ? For a lightweight wallet, I recommend that you use Electrum. If you want the extra security of a full node, you can actually set up your server with Bitcoin Core on it as an Electrum server and then make your Electrum wallet at home connect to it by default instead of trusting someone else's electrum server. |

Even if you aren't accepting incoming connections, you are still contributing to the network as your node still receives all transactions and blocks and still validates them and relays them.
Since you can forward other ports, I would advise that you do so. Even though it isn't preferred, nodes will still connect to you.

This is your problem: 2016-02-22 12:49:37 Wallet disabled!
2016-02-22 12:49:37 Unsetting NODE_NETWORK on prune mode
2016-02-22 12:49:37 init message: Pruning blockstore... You have pruning enabled, yes? With 0.11.2, the wallet is automatically disabled when pruning is enabled. You can either upgrade to 0.12.0 or disable pruning and download the entire blockchain. If you choose to upgrade to 0.12.0, you can either wait for the official release which should be in a day or two or you can download a binary that I have built and uploaded here: https://github.com/achow101/bitcoin/releases/tag/v0.12.0. If you choose to download my binaries, make sure you check the checksums against those in https://github.com/bitcoin/gitian.sigs and verify the signatures on the checksum files. If your wallet is empty and you haven't used any of the addresses yet, then upgrading to 0.12.0 won't require a rescan, but if you have used it, then you will need to rescan the blockchain which will also require downloading the whole thing again, it just won't store it on the disk. |

Why was your password reset recently
I had to change my password because there was the potential that someone could have hacked me. So I changed it, and I typed the password wrong when I set it so I had to reset and redo it. It is because of what I described here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1340882.0 and can you sign a message from an address you have posted from before today?

My name has changed from knightdk to achow101. See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1609738.0.
I am now opening an escrow service! Always wait for or ask for a PGP signed message from me before sending me any Bitcoin. Always verify the message you receive.I will no longer be escrowing Forum Account sales.I will escrow nearly everything so long as it is legal. Some examples:Digital trades (e.g. Bitcointalk accounts, domains) IPOs/ICOs (e.g. altcoin IPOs) Signature Campaigns Physical trades (e.g. miners) I can do both 2 party and multi party escrows. I am offering two types of escrow, traditional and multisig.Traditional escrow requires that you trust me to hold onto the funds and release them when requested. Multisig is using a multisignature Bitcoin address which does not require that you trust me to not steal the funds. I will be charging fees for my services. The following is a baseline but they can be decreased and negotiatedPrivate party escrow (e.g. product trade): 0.01 BTC or 1% of the trade value, whichever is greater Multi-party escrow (e.g. Sig campaign): 5% of the amount How to conduct an escrowed trade1. Contact me through PM to initiate the escrow. Make sure that the message you send contains who the buyer and seller are, how much is being paid, who is paying the fee, and whether to use multisig. I will assume by default the trade will be using traditional escrow 2. I will respond with a PGP signed message with instructions which will contain the details of the transaction and where the Bitcoin should be sent. 3. If any dispute arises, I will be the judge and resolve it as fairly as possible. I will make a decision and release the Bitcoin to the proper parties. I will remain neutral throughout the dispute. ContactBitcointalk PM: This is the only method through which I can be contacted and the only method through which any escrow instructions will be sent. I am online at the following times (all EST): Weekdays: 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM (sometimes I will be on earlier but on mobile so I may not be able to provide escrow) Weekends: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM My PGP Public KeyThis is my PGP public key, always make sure that any instructions that I send are signed with this PGP key. It can also be accessed at https://keybase.io/achow101/key.asc-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

not really any private info to share here is a snapshot http://prntscr.com/a6q2saI wonder why there saying "client name Satoshi" that is not my name The client name is the name of the wallet software, which for Bitcoin Core and its predecessors, has always been Satoshi. here is the debug log LONG
way to long had to shorten it
Well you didn't grab the part that was useful. Try uploading the whole thing to http://pastebin.com/ and post the link to that. |

Anything I need to be aware of as a technical amateur? I'm running 0.11.2 simply as a way to store a portion of my stash safely. Anything I need to know when I upgrade to 0.12 ?
You can check the release notes at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/0.12/doc/release-notes.md but no, I don't think there is anything really that you should be worried about when upgrading. |

Can you provide the Debug log? Just go to Help > Debug Window and select the option for the Debug log then post all of the contents here. Nothing private will be shared.

yea that that only accounts for about 8EU of the 58 that is missing from my bitpay account I dono what to make of that then what have I installed ? http://prntscr.com/a6l3g8 ? You should have the latest version of bitcoin core. What you are looking at is about Qt, the GUI library that bitcoin core used. There should be something about bitcoin core in the help menu, not about Qt. |

Yes but it is not officially released yet. Official binaries do not exist yet. |
|
|

Bitcoin.org will probably update sometime between today and Monday - I'm not sure when. If you're really itching to try 0.12.0, I uploaded the binaries here: https://mega.nz/#F!Q9MUgQZD!Wq44qDAtHzGEvifAxQIZbA Verify them against the available gitian sigs. (Ie. look at the out_manifest section of the assert files in the gitian.sigs repo, compare those hashes to the files you download, and also gpg-verify the signatures on the assert files.) It's monday already and still no 0.12.0 in official site  Can you confirm if it will happen today? What happened. I am going to wait for the official site to update since it should be happening soon anyway and I don't have much free time this week so im not in a rush to update, but I thought it would be up today. No idea why it hasn't officially been released yet. I will be asking this shortly in the mailing list. |

What is the transaction ID of the bitcoin payment that you were sent? If it doesn't exist, then you weren't paid. Otherwise, this is probably just a syncing issue with bitcoin core.

Fees from LN don't go to miners anyways.
If the fees in payment channel hops becomes greater than normal transaction fees, then people will just use the good ol blockchain.
and finally, welcome to the conversation. as the other person said. if miners are not getting fee's... so now i think you are finally on the same wavelength and understanding of his point. if people are using LN miners wont get paid. No, miners still get paid. Opening and closing LN channels still requires on-chain transactions, so miners still get paid. There are also payments that are not efficient to use LN for that will still happen on-chain and they get their fees from there. There is also nothing stopping miners from also becoming payment channel nodes to also make some money from those fees. |
|
|
|
|
What do you mean "encrypt a BTC"? In bitcoin there if no such thing as a " bitcoin", there are only transactions and the outputs generated by transactions.
|
|
|
|
Those fees will go to the people who own those payment channels and it is up to them whether to charge fees and how much to charge.
so whats stopping these "people" from turning thier utility of being an owner of a payment channel, into a legit business, thus making the owner a CEO of an LN channel, where the fees go to these "people" and not to miners because if there are no fee's to use LN internally then miners get nothing.. because there are no fees to hand them.. Fees from LN don't go to miners anyways. If the fees in payment channel hops becomes greater than normal transaction fees, then people will just use the good ol blockchain. |
|

and move them to LN CEO.
rebuttle: There is no Lightning Network CEO. In fact, I don't think there are really any fees with Lightning if you use the payment channels.
debunk of rebuttle There may be some small fees if you do hops between channels because you have to pay the people you are hopping through.
wait, did the person rebuttling, just debunk himself.. in the same paragraph. so lets not call them LN CEO. lets call them Payment channel owners. (as i think thats what adamstgBit was insinuating. that the people who own the channels will profit. and it could become such a big business that they make it a business and become CEO's of said business the next question is who picks who these 'people' who own the channel get to be.. Sorry if I wasn't clear, what I meant to say was that there are two ways to use lightning, one of which has no fees, the other some. No fees are if there is a direct payment channel open between two parties. The fees are if there isn't a payment channel open between the two of parties and you have to route your payment through third parties. Those fees will go to the people who own those payment channels and it is up to them whether to charge fees and how much to charge. |

The Lightning Network is a proposed payment channel layer for Bitcoin. Basically it allows for cheap transactions, typically small recurring payments, to occur. It is for scalability as it essentially can compress hundreds of transactions into one or two. For example, say for recurring micropayments from a faucet to you, normally, you may receive hundreds of these, and each one requires a specific fee. Instead with lightning, you will still have hundreds of transactions, just that when you want to use that Bitcoin, only one of those hundreds actually ends up on the Bitcoin network and in the blockchain, thus removing hundreds of transactions from the blockchain and saving both you and the faucet hundreds of transactions worth of fees. It essentially tracks balances between two parties. it will take all the fees generated by low value TX on each block, away from miners and move them to LN CEO.
There is no Lightning Network CEO. In fact, I don't think there are really any fees with Lightning if you use the payment channels. There may be some small fees if you do hops between channels because you have to pay the people you are hopping through. @adamstgBit I do not think that is true really. Maybe I am thinking wrong. If you think about it, you make a single small transaction normally and it gets added to a block with transactions from other users. That block is solved and the fees are split amongst the miners in whatever system that pool uses. That block may have multiple fees in it, but the reward is for the block, not the number of transactions within that block. So, if all of your transactions are saved up and then broadcast as a single transaction, then there is really no difference is the block reward. The only difference is that your transaction are in one block and not in several. Each block processed when it hit its number, 25. The block that held your first transaction still went off with the same reward, just filled with your 1 transaction and many others from other people. I am making this more complex than I meant. Now, correct me if I am wrong. There is a train and it will leave when 25 people are on it. That train will pay the conductor 10 dollars to leave the station. You have three people to transport and rather than paying a fee for each one, you wait until they all arrive and then ride on one train, one fee. The previous car left when it had 25 people and the conductor made his ten bucks. When all your people arrived you got on the next train and it left, ten bucks for the conductor. Still two trains, still 50 people moved and still twenty dollars total for the conductor. It did not matter whether your three were on one car or two cars. The ticket master(the exchange) got ripped off because you bought one ticket for three people instead of two, but not the conductor(mining pool). Am I right or wrong? No, you are wrong. What lightning does is it reduces however many transactions between you and another person to just two transactions. One transaction funds the payment channel, the other allows you to spend the results of the payment channel. The output transaction is a final state, the final balance of the parties after the channel is closed. Whatever happened in between the opening and closing of the channel doesn't matter and thus have no fees. The only fees paid are for only the two transactions that end up in the blockchain, no matter how many actually occurred in the channel. |
