If you used a WIFI that is unsecured or using WEP or vulnerable WPS encryption, you should change your password. Attacks may have been executed on the network, so your accounts may be compromised.
8162  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Micro transactions - confirmations? on: October 15, 2014, 01:39:48 PM
A follow up question, based on the first question.

Say, I own a faucet, and every Sunday, I want to make micro payments to say 3000 users. What would the best method be, to pay these users, and to have the least amount of transactions/miner fees?

I see many faucets, with a withdraw limit of 5000+ Satoshi and I can just imagine, that the transaction fees, would nulify the gain or reduce the profits, if it was done individually.

Do I pay less, if it's batched together, and what technology or wallet, would make the payment the cheapest for massive micro transactions? ^Grin^ 

faucets use https://www.microwallet.org/ they can send even 1 satoshi and it is offchain transaction check the API page for more info
That process involve trusting a third party with your BTC. If they decide to run away, you may lose all your BTC. You could make a withdrawal limit of 5500 satoshi for example and send the payments every week by batches. The transaction fees can be reduced.

No one owns that address. In a bitcoin address, there are 26-34 alphanumeric characters. In the address, there is 35 characters. The address is impossible to be generated, therefore being invalid. You can try to google Bitcoin address and see who it links to, since google crawl most webpages.
8164  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I want to use bitcoin core to creat an offline wallet address and private key on: October 14, 2014, 11:51:32 AM
I want to use bitcoin core to creat an offline wallet and bitcoin address to receive coins.Some one tell me how?
I only knew how to use bitcoin core to sign transaction offline.But is bitcoin core could ever creat offline address and private key?
Boot into a linux OS using a live CD, use another thumbdrive to transfer the bitcoin core file offline and then run it. It will automatically generate a Bitcoin address. Export a wallet backup and encrypt with password. Then, you can put the wallet backup in the thumbdrive. When you need to access it, just boot from live CD and import the backup. I really wouldn't recommend this since its a hassle to create and send bitcoins. The best solution is to use bitaddress.org offline and generate an address and print the private key. If your computer or thumbdrive gets damaged, you may never recover your bitcoin. Paper is likely to last longer than a thumbdrive. Try laminating it.

why not just lower back to 100 sat reg and 1000 whitelist. that seemed to work during the pd2 days

Or just don't allow a faucet at all, until you have wagered a certain amount. Like 10btc or something.
That just completely defeat the purpose of having a faucet. Faucet allows new players to experience the site and test features without risking their actual BTC. Most of them just test it out before depositing BTC.

I think it's because of the mining power decrease  Undecided Hopefully confirm time will be shorter soon when price rises.
I don't think the hashrate is even decreasing, it seems to be increasing fast and it wouldn't make alot of difference in the confirmation time. The main factor is variance and at time, it takes more time than usual. There are ways to avoid the double spending attack. Even though it may not be recommended, offchain transaction can be made for instant and safe transaction. If you wait a few seconds and take some safety measures, you may be safe enough to accept smaller payments.
8168  Economy / Gambling / Re: Primedice | Most Popular Bitcoin Game |1% Edge | PVP | Jackpot | Faucet on: October 12, 2014, 11:38:59 AM
JD was very successful in terms of number of bets and amount wagered due to the easy user interface and low unexpected downtimes. If the faucet was removed, it would probably not make a difference if they use the money to improve the site and perhaps improve the server uptime and overall stability. This would attract those who truly want to gamble instead of freeloaders.
8169  Economy / Lending / Re: Offering BTC loans [no collateral] on: October 10, 2014, 12:20:10 PM
Amount:0.2
Reason: To do some trading and have to purchase items with bitcoins
How am I going to repay?: I have a signature payment due and I can repay it also with my money I am going to get.
Interest rate: 2% per day, 4% on each day after 31 October 2014
Time period: 31 October 2014
Repayment will be split into blocks of 0.045, when I get signature payments and more bitcoins.
I have also done several small loans in the past, you can PM monbux to directly send the signature payment to you when the payments come. (if possible)

First sign from this address: 192fqgb5aCKrjNkudGqSWR6Nuu4J8tEMB7

Then I'm willing to give you 0.1 btc for 3 weeks, with other conditions same as you stated. 6 weeks is too long. Once you repay after the 3 weeks, I'll consider giving you another one. You can see the 3 weeks as a half-way checkpoint to make sure you can still repay.

What does monbux have to do with this? Is he the escrow for your sig campaign? Please give more details or link to this.
Monbux is the escrow for my signature campaign.(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=774226.msg8753993#msg8753993)
I guess 0.1 should be enough for some small trades  Smiley.
Please send the loan to 192fqgb5aCKrjNkudGqSWR6Nuu4J8tEMB7.

8172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Block chain size/storage and slow downloads for new users on: October 08, 2014, 09:51:37 AM
If I use Multibit, I assume I am  not contributing to the bitcoin network by allowing others to connect to me and download new blocks from each other. Wouldn't this become an issue if the majority of the users started to use an SPV client?
Not really, merchants would still be relying on full nodes to process payment as SPV clients isn't as secure as Bitcoin core. There will also be some people willing to run them to support the Blockchain. You aren't contributing much unless you turn on your computer for 24/7 as Bitcoin need more nodes with more reliability and uptime.

Martingale System is for veeeery rich person. In this system you will win only on paper.

Nah, most gambling site have max bet so Smiley

This is one of the biggest problem of this system.
Next one is that we need a huge bankroll.
Huge bankroll is infinite. You will lose in the long run no matter what. Varience ensures that you don't get the same amount of win and loses, you will eventually hit a very long streak and there goes your bankroll. Also, the house edge decreases your likelyhood of winning.

weird how AK won so big then all of a sudden cant catch a fly, and switches pulled?




nonce-o-meter maybe...




j/k Wink

More weird thing is how he managed to go from -200 to +500 . Smiley
Its gambling u are supposed to lose eventually ...
Extreme amount of luck and bankroll? But.. his profit is now at -777.62426133 so I guess you should lose in the long run if you gamble.
8175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Block chain size/storage and slow downloads for new users on: October 06, 2014, 01:32:41 PM
It took me 23 hours to add fully functional bt-core on my MAC. Downloaded bootstrap.dat and synchronised with network. Macbook is new, but process was so slow.
If you don't need the full functions, consider getting a light weight Bitcoin client. Full node requires CPU to verify blocks and memory space. They can be reduced by using a lightweight wallet as you do not need that much hard disk space because you do not need to download blocks. This is also the fastest.

Could you open source it, this can allow people to review the code and see if there's any virus or account stealing code.

Yep, nobody has any idea except you and PD mods, I am just stupid and streaks of 30 reds are everyday events:D
Honestly, if you expect a positive profit from gambling casino, tell me why did Stunna open this in the first place. Bets are 100% provably fair, once you set the seed, your bets are predetermined and cannot be changed unless they skip nonce which is not the case here. They cannot determine your betting strategy and change your results. Varience naturally happen, you don't always have one loss and one win or 50lose 50win in 100bets. You can have more or less wins.
8179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Never recovered bitcoins? Less than 21million? on: September 28, 2014, 01:30:47 PM
Hi guys,

As you may already be aware that there are people who simply lose bitcoins, and there is quite a lof of them!

For example: This guy lost his hard drive with 100k btc on it, another guy lost paper wallet with 30k btc on it and so on...

Now the question that i'm asking myself? Do they stay stuck in blockchain? Because if yes, than i see only about 8million bitcoins in circulation by the time they are mined..

Of course they stay on blackchain. And with time when computers will get stronger, they will be companies, that will search for this long lost wallets.  Same as are now companies, that search fro sunken ships from oceans. Pulling them out and sell their Gold or other things to pay costs and divide profit. So some coins on today lost wallets are not lost forever.
I think it would be disastrous if it ever happens, it would simply mean that wallet are not secure enough and people confidence in bitcoin would drop. If a vulnerability is found, we can just hardfork and go on a new algorithm and the old wallets would not be cracked.
8180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Never recovered bitcoins? Less than 21million? on: September 28, 2014, 03:51:13 AM
At least a meager 0.01% increments added each year to counter the permanent loss. Come on 0.01% wouldn't dilute bitcoin value so drastically. And this would eventually ensure bitcoin continuity in supply. Plus some incentive to ensure there will always be miners after the 21 mil
Bitcoin isn't fiat, you cannot predict when will the generation and total estimated supply will be. Miners would mine for transaction fees after 2140 definitely. Bitcoin is meant to have a total coin cap so that one bitcoin wouldn't lose value. If the generation increases, people can just hold the bitcoin and the total circulation would be much higher.
