I like how quickly he completly changed the thread. I think Im gonna have some fun in the gambling section. You should too. If you see a new ponzi, quote for reference, leave negative trust and use your quote as a ref link. A warning of sorts is probably in order as well. Idk like:

Weekly fun fact: knowingly joining a ponzi is illegal in most countries.

Warning! This is a Ponzi Scheme. A Ponzi only works if you deposit.
Every time you get a return, you steal the coins from someone else.
One day this will be you.
The only person that allways profits, is the person running the ponzi.
They will only stop when you stop depositing.

Dont be a thief, stop supporting Ponzis!

You do realize this sounds shady, right?

75% discount do not make you trustworthy, it makes you look desperate.

Are you sure? Because their integration with BitGo is a brand new thing and what you describe would allow a sore loser from ever paying.

Hmm, granted I have not been on Bitstamp for some time, thus the "integrated wallet" is new to me. I would be surprised though if Bitstamp allowed any unconfirmed deals.

Quick question - not sure if it belongs here though
Once you move BTC to multisig wallet, is it still available for selling?

1. If yes, what prevents a user for refusing to release the funds or is it released automatically by bitgo?
2. If no, *sad*

AFAIK Bitstamp is an exchange and Bitgo is an online wallet that allows multi-sig. If you want to sell your BTC on Bitstamp they require you to transfer the BTC to their wallet first. Thus it does not matter how you stored them previously. You make a transaction, they wait for 6 confirmations and credit your virtual balance. Afterwards you are able to trade offchain (on their site) with the virtual balance and withdraw it when you are done trading.

Consumer to retailer transaction via credit card is not an anonymous transaction so you're not comparing like with like.

The stolen CC I pay my coffee with is certainly anonymous. Just because the plastic card has a name on it does not mean I am giving away my personal information.

I think the answer to question 2 is "No". In the context of transaction time, both cash and plastic are superior to Bitcoin. Though I'm happy to go through the logic of how it could be otherwise.

Payment processors could handle transactions like these, but honestly most of the time I pay for coffee they dont even check if the money I give them is real. Its a risk they are willing to take because the majority of the customers are honest. Frankly most of the customers are honest because they want to come back and as someone that once took a fake 200 € bill: my boss didnt care. Its like the robery that happens statistically once every X. You calculate with it and adjust your prices accordingly or get insurance that covers these things.

-snip-
I guess transaction fees will have to go up to incentivise the miners? It's not a problem right now, but in a 10bn people doing x10 transactions a day, how much of a problem would it be? Can a farmer pay a supplier $5 with his mobile without having to incurr 10%/20%/30%? transaction fees?

The more payments are made, the smaller the fee per payment. Assuming the blocksize is not a limit in your scenario.

I would love to see an econometric analysis of this based on where we are now and where we're going if we keep going at the same rate (factoring in price, market cap, price of electricity, mining difficulty, transaction fees, etc.) But I don't have the knowledge or expertise.

Go ahead, I did know nothing about bitcoin a year ago.

This is the reason I resigned but Carra paid me. Smiley

Yeah, I honestly dont think Carra is into this and is just another victim in their scheme.

They told, they will make their mining farm public by February. Didn't got any updates after that and recently I saw some users told that they couldn't get any payments last 2 days. I hope this hasn't turned to a scam after a few months but I think they will get good profits if they ran away now. Roll Eyes

Well, if they come up with a reasonable explanation for all the secrecy and smoke bombs. Pictures would be a start. I am certain someone from the german section would be willing to visit their farm to confirm their operations. The Ruhrgebiet has a population of more than 5 million people. There should be someone nearby.

BTW, +10. Nice investigation. Smiley

-snip-
I'm just downloading yesterdays bootstrap file. I am using a Windows Azure machine so it takes like 25 mins to download 31 GB

Maybe, but grue's node is also a Windows Azure, which could result in more than 100Mbit/s and the machine can do the calculations needed while downloading. The difference is probably only a matter of minutes anyway.

I have the sq.gz file

Where do I put the files? Thanks.

.gz sounds like zip, extract and it should have a bootstrap.dat which goes into the same folder as your wallet.dat
8092  Other / Meta / Re: A question about Service Announcements/Project Development on: January 10, 2015, 08:33:47 PM
This is mainly aimed at those who have probably had to move threads out of Project Development before, so Patrollers and Global Moderators+, really.

Im none of those, but I report plenty of post from the general bitcoin discussion section that get moved into both.

Where do you draw the line between Service Announcements and Project Development?

IMHO the difference is

Service ANN: Hey, we made this. Take a look!
Proj. Dev.: Hey, Im/we're trying to get this to work, but need more X, Y and/or Z.

Does the announcement have to explicitly make it clear that there is development going on actively? Or can an announcement be posted there if the service is already active and running but they are planning on adding a new feature or something similar?

Thus, for me, its the later. An ANN can be made if the main service is allready running. Id actually expect a service to improve over time. The question is: do you have something thats working or not.

[Apologies for the double post but I feel this has been buried]

Consider this a free bump even though I am not staff Wink

These 2 threads also seem to be a bit weird to me:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=895633.0

IMHO should be in digital goods with all the other sold source code/scripts. Either that or in services, but I dont think CoinFeeder is going to support the code.


Same as above. Fully developed software, ready for sale. At least it looks like this.

So what has been keeping one thread in there for longer than 2 years, and the other even after a report (at least, I'm fairly sure I reported it)? Clarification would be awesome. Thanks.

Some sections are handled more often than others.

The unofficial list[1] says:

-snip-
Guidelines for threads

Some boards which are obvious were left out of the list


Section: Bitcoin
Project Development - Organization of Bitcoin and related projects (sites, software not yet developed/in development), bounty campaigns, advertising etc. No hiring here although "looking for partners" threads should be here.

Section: Economy
Service Announcements (child board of Marketplace) - "New services and significant information about existing services. Do not create excessive "announcements" just to advertise your service." All Bitcoin service website announcements should go here.

I am using bitcoin qt core. I used the sourceforge bootstrap.dat. I'll try that other link. and add nodes

If you only have 45 weeks left dont bother with another bootstrap.dat.

Launch bitcoin core with -connect=IP, e.g. (Win):
Code:
c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -connect=1.2.3.4

Multiple nodes will not help with a version before 0.10.0 as older version only sync with the first node you connect to. Thus the list. Pick the one thats fastest/closest to you, e.g. EU/Asia pick one of the 1GBit/s nodes, if you are in the US use grue's node. If you get no data after bitcoin core started, shut it down and start with another one. If the nodes in question reached the connection limit they will not accept yours.

8096  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core in multi user environment on: January 10, 2015, 05:25:09 PM

This doesn't let you store the wallets in the home folders, and the -wallet argument seems to only let you specify wallets inside the data dir.

In a multi machine environment you could use a single machine running bitcoin core and the others connecting to it using mSIGNA[1].

I am trying to get my bitcoind to download all blocks but it freezes up a lot or it's taking forever, anyone got a good list of some active nodes I can add to bitcoin.conf?

If you're using <0.10.0rc1 (latest as of this writing), your daemon downloads the chain from only one node. If it happens to pick a slow one you're going to download it slowly. Increasing the number of connections doesn't improve this.

Try 0.10.0rc1, which grabs the headers first and then downloads the blocks from several peers in parallel. It's WAY faster.

#1 This ^. If you can use 0.10.0rc1
#2 If you must use an older version:
#2.1 use the torrent[1][2]
#2.2 after(!) you used the torrent, connect to a single fast peer. Take one from the list below. If any of the IPs are not working, let me know. To connect to a single node use the connect=IP command, e.g. (Windows):
Code:
c:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -connect=10.10.11.11

8098  Local / Anfänger und Hilfe / Re: 2 Bitcoin Core Wallets synchronisieren on: January 10, 2015, 03:08:52 PM
Hey, vielen Dank für deine Antwort!

Die gesuchte Adresse[1] ist in beiden wallet.dat Dateien. Sie wird Dir nur nicht angezeigt.
Dummerweise bin ich gerade unterwegs und kann den Laptop Wallet nicht mit dem Desktop Wallet abgleichen, aber einen Differenzbetrag in der im Frontend angezeigten Summe fiel mir nicht auf. Das muss ich mal nächste Woche definitiv abgleichen. Die erwähnte Transaktion taucht aber wie gesagt nicht in der Transaktionshistorie des Desktop-Wallets auf.

Ich bin mir nicht sicher ob der Gesamtbetrag deswegen korrekt angezeigt wird. Ich hatte das Problem nur einmal nach nem Backup. Ich denke aber nicht. Ich glaub mir wär das erstmal nicht aufgefallen das mir eine Adresse fehlt wenn der Gesamtbetrag in etwa korrekt gewesen wäre.

Gesetzt den Fall der Betrag stimmt 100%ig überein (wovon ich ausgehe), dann müsste es ja ausreichen, wenn ich im Desktop Wallet noch ein paar neue Empfangsadressen generieren lasse - die gesuchte Adresse müsste dann dabei sein und somit die Transaktion in der History auftauchen, oder?

Das sollte reichen, ja. So habe ich das auch gelöst, einfach n paar mal das Knöpfchen gedrückt und die Adresse war wieder da. Falls der Gesamtbetrag danach noch nicht stimmt, wirst Du ein -rescan machen müssen.

Noch eine Frage für die Zukunft: Nach der Größe des Dumps zu schätzen habe ich jetzt rund 60 Adressen "verbraten". Wenn die 100 Adressen komplett "verbraten" wurden, läuft dann die Synchronisation auseinander oder werden die nächsten Adressen in beiden wallets mit Hilfe des gleichen "Zufalls" erzeugt, so das die nachfolgenden Adressen dann auch identisch sind?

Die nächsten 100 sind dann unterschiedlich. Du kannst das aber auch erzwingen mit:
keypoolrefill 9000
Das würde 9000 neue Adressen inkl. Keys erzeugen. Vorher mit:
walletpassphrase mein%passw0rd123456 120
entsperren, in diesem Fall 120 Sekunden lang.

First warning usually is 7 days, I wonder how you know the exact number. Anyway just me beeing paranoid.

Sorry pureelite, you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum.
Insubstantial posts+sig ad & ban evasion-extended (60 days)

This suggests that you have at least one other account or someone with the same IP addresses as you. Any way to prove to the admins that you dont own/used another account? It usually is not possible to prove such a thing I know. Maybe someone from the staff is willing to reveal which account triggered the ban evasion.

i dont think my posts were spam!!!
if you think this is spam then i should write a post of more then 500 words if that works

The length of the post is not relevant. A simple "yes" can be helpfull if someone has a simple yes/no question and you are the first person to answer this. Plenty of your posts are questions, cant argue against someone asking honest questions. Although you ask them at a pace where one wonders if you ever read the answers. The other thing is that your posts lack substance. Lets make a few examples.

This one:

Quote
add thebot.net its a really good forum !!

Its just your personal opinion. While its fine to post this and almost all of us post opinions here it would be worth more to others reading your post if you could back it by reasons. Why do you think the board in question is "really good"? Why do you think it should be on the list?

Quote
poloniex is the best!

its one of the fastest and easiest exchanges i have used!!

Slightly better, but you could still provide more information. How long have you used poloniex? What about the recent downtimes?

Quote
why do you use xapo?

its better if use blockchain ,no bugs and its the safest!

If Id actualy care about you, Id start to "yell" at you now.

#1 No bugs on bc.i? "reuse R value" ring a bell?
#2 OP has a problem with A and your "solution" is for OP to use B. That is not helping. Imagine you post about a problem with your car and someone posts: "Why do you use car in the first place? Use bike, its the safest!"

Most (if not all) of your posts are in the above fashion and in threads that work like this. If you post a few of those its fine, but in your case you do not post anything else. IMHO your posts are one-liners without any value to anyone reading them. If this is because your english skills do not allow you to express yourself better: post less, dont sell your signature, improve your english and/or stick to the subboard in your language.

so a lot of people post the same,its more likely,especialy when you post in games and rounds section!

If you see others posting 20 one liners within 1 hour feel free to write a PM to someone in charge or create a thread here.
