8721  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Paper backup usable two times?!!? on: October 23, 2015, 02:40:10 AM
Okay that is great to hear, you are kind of my personal hero now. But when some other can attack my addresses now, cause there is no password, could'nt I do the same now? If so, how? Because the scanning on Armory is taking hours, taking longer and longer for a percent as longer as it goes. I know all the addresses, because they are shown at my Offline PC. Can I transfer the BTCs NOW to a new created offline wallet? Because I am afraid that someone else will steal my coins now Sad
Using the online computer, you can look up all of the unspent outputs of all of your addresses. You will need all of the transaction ids and all of the indices where the outputs you want are. Then using Bitcoin Core, use the createrawtransaction method in the console or through the command line and create a raw transaction. Make sure that all of your Bitcoin is accounted for and that you have included a fee. The fee is determined by the difference between the inputs and the outputs. Send all of the Bitcoin to an address in a new wallet you created on the offline pc. You must be very careful. when you create the transaction,. You will get the raw hex for it. Take the raw hex to your offline computer and sign it. Then broadcast that transaction through Bitcoin Core's sendrawtransaction method.

I deleted the wallet from my online PC right after I realized what I did. But how can I move my coins now? I just gone to my offline PC, created a new copy of the watching-only-wallet and imported it to my Online PC. Now it is scanning the wallet. Did I do it right?!
yes that is correct.

Please I know I am annoying, but I am so fucked. Could you please tell me how I can move my coins now?

I have access to the offline Laptop with the old password but do not know if that is working anymore?
Can I use the paper wallet again?
Yes, you can. There is nothing that can possibly disable the wallet once it has been used once.

Everything should be fine once the new watching-wallet imports to your online pc.

What Goatpig was saying was that once everything is synced, you should create a new wallet on your offline pc and transfer all of the coins from the old one to the new one since its moment of being online and unencrypted (since you didn't enter a password) exposed it to potential attack. Do this if you are paranoid.
8723  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: A interesting TX generated by Electrum on: October 23, 2015, 01:09:40 AM
I thought even sending 1 satoshi was be fine as long as the fee was of an appropriate size.

For example: sending 0.00000001 with a 0.0002 fee would go through without issue.

Maybe I am just grossly misinformed.
You are misinformed. There are small outputs called dust which, if a dust output is detected, won't be relayed or accepted to mempools since transactions with dust outputs are considered non-standard. The dust threshold changes with the minimum transaction relay fee which is set by each node (meaning the dust threshold changes for each node). The current default is 2370 satoshis. It used to be 546 satoshis.
8724  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: A interesting TX generated by Electrum on: October 23, 2015, 12:29:08 AM
I don't think that output is considered dust. AFAIK the dust threshold is 2730 satoshis, and that output is a little more than double that.
8725  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Should websites refuse to send coins to an already used address? on: October 22, 2015, 11:12:49 PM
I don't think so. There are many legitimate uses for reusing an address. For example, many people on this forum have tip jar addresses. A lot of people also use web wallets. If those services began blocking used addresses, then those with tip jars may not be able to get tips.
8726  Other / Meta / Re: The Definition of a Low Quality Post on: October 22, 2015, 09:36:12 PM
I would say that the length doesn't matter. If the post doesn't add anything of value to the discussion, then I consider it low quality. Short posts like your quoted one can be very helpful, and sometimes long posts don't add anything to the discussion. And I agree that many sig ad spammers will post long winded posts full of complete nonsense just so that it looks like they are posting something that contributes so that they get paid.

Thanks for admitting you were wrong about NotXT backfiring.
Yes, I do admit that I was wrong (I am not an egotistic bastard who thinks he's always right  Tongue). But of course, things didn't happen the way that I though they would when I made that assumption. I figured that it would backfire if a large number of people began running NotXT, which didn't happen.
8728  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Configuring a dice website. on: October 22, 2015, 07:39:26 PM
But when i put my wallet (blockchain and bitcoin-qt) details, it won't connect to the wallet.
What do you mean by wallet deatils?

But when i put "localhost" as a host it connects. How is that possible?
It needs to connect to the server over the network, and to connect to the local computer, its hostname is localhost. What was it before you changed it?

The wallet details are:

rpchost=
rpcuser=
rpcpassword
rpcport=

But the host on blockchain isn't localhost. But when i run the script with xampp (locally) and put localhost (running bitcoin-qt) localhost as a rpchost works fine. But when i run the script over the internet (on some test website) and i put rpc.blockchain.info or my IP (from bitcoin-qt) it doesn't work...

I'm kind of "noob" with this.. i only code in C.


Thanks for the answer.
Regards.
rpc.blockchain.info won't work unless you put in the details for their rpc server. What is probably happening is that your firewall is blocking the rpc requests. You need to open up the rpcport you specified (probably 8332) in both the firewalls on server with the bitcoind and on your router.

However, this is highly not recommended. You should have the bitcoind on the server that you are hosting the site on, or at least on the same local network. If you don't then that means that anyone may be able to access the rpc server and access the wallet. It would open it up to the internet and thus open it to attack.

I am not a fan of XT, and I don't like how the devs are fighting.
However I do expect that NotXT will backfire.

So much for your expectation that NotXT will backfire.

It worked like a charm!  XT is deader than disco.

The devs were right to fight the Gavinista attempted governance coup, regardless of your sanctimonious disapproval.

The only thing that backfired was your crystal-ball gazing.   Grin
Are you sure that it worked? Just because XT is pretty much dead doesn't mean that NotXT did its job. Can you provide proof that XT died due to this? And NotXT didn't necessarily do its job either.

tsoPANos' claim was "NotXT will backfire."

Where is the evidence NotXT backfired?

If NotXT backfired, wouldn't XT still be alive?

I'm sorry you missed the memorable spectacle of NotXT completely demoralizing the already beleaguered Gavinistas (in their hour of greatest need).

It was hilarious.   Cool
While NotXT didn't backfire, you cannot say that just because XT died that that was due to NotXT. You cannot substantiate that claim. XT could have died for a number of other reasons, not  because if NotXT
8731  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core 0.11.1 error: Cannot obtain a lock on data directory on: October 22, 2015, 11:35:09 AM
Do you still have Bitcoin Core running in the background or not shutdown completely?  Do you see a "bitcoin-qt.exe" in your windows task manager (press CTRL+ALT+DEL once to open it)?

Yes it's still running but just stuck on a task bar, it won't load a wallet. I can shut it down but when I start, it just verifies blocks and freezes.
How long have you waited after it freezes? Bitcoin core is known to sometimes take a very long time to start up.
8732  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Double spend? of .1 still not confirmed after 3 days on: October 22, 2015, 01:01:48 AM
reply it did subtract the .1 from my stated balance... so when i get to 0 will there still be a withdrawable .1 ? Or what do I need to do to get that .1 available to me?
The .1 will still be available. Blockchain.info will just show your balance as negative until they drop the unconfirmed transaction

So the .1 is still in my wallet? And my stated balance is incorrect?
The 0.1 you wanted to send was sent. And if your balance deducted 0.2 (which it probably did) then it is wrong.
8735  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Why are transaction malleable in the first place? on: October 21, 2015, 08:53:23 PM

The only effect of this kind of third party malleability has on ordinary Bitcoin payment activity with competently written wallet software is a fairly mild denial of service attack (blocking payments using unconfirmed coins) and mild cosmetic issues; irritating, no doubt, but not more than that...

That "mild" denial of service attack is likely to be perceived as a failure of the bitcoin system when it is experienced by a new bitcoin user.  This is particularly true if the sender makes two transactions in rapid succession from a balance of "old" coins, where the second transaction uses a change address from the first transaction.  This leads to counter-intuitive behavior, since the naive user believes he had all the necessary funds in hand, only to discover that the second transaction "bounces".

I suggest placing more emphasis on what bitcoin users experience, even if it means a little inconvenience for some developers.  
Well if they had changed that without informing and giving developers enough time to update their software to where almost everyone uses compliant code, then the network would essentially be DoS'ing itself. In your scenario, both transactions would have been "bounced" if they used High S, making it an even bigger inconvenience to users. That would have been a bigger perceived failure of the bitcoin system, not just the fact that someone can malleate their transactions and thus make spending from an unconfirmed transaction an even worse idea (given that it already is a bad idea).

Will it be open source?
8738  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Dust threshold changed without any mention in 0.11.1 on: October 21, 2015, 11:04:41 AM

and the change to the relay fee was absolutely release noted

FALSE. Stop lying in my face. When I searched the release notes there were no indication to the minrelaytxfee config parameter and the default value that might have changed as a result. It is pathetic to see you try to cover up this mess. Be an adult and admit that the release notes were lacking that info.
When the release was announced in the bitcoin-dev mailing list, the email included the information about the change of the minrelaytxfee. However, this was never mentioned in the website for some reason.
8739  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Double spend? of .1 still not confirmed after 3 days on: October 21, 2015, 04:33:03 AM
the person I sent the coins to has received .1 so who has the other .1?
Technically, that person does, but that transaction is useless. It cannot be spent from and just takes up space. Everything is exactly how you intended it, except that there happens to be an extra transaction floating around. You can get rid of it from your wallet, but we will need to know what wallet you are using.
Blockchain
Just wait a few days and the transaction should disappear. Blockchain.info will automatically remove the transaction from their database when it remains unconfirmed for too long and that it is also a double spend.

Just ignore the malleability attack, it doesn't really change anything. You sent the same coins twice to the same person, the second transaction confirmed, so he still got the money. All in all, just ignore the double spend, its like it never happened.
It's not like it never happened because my coins are gone and I spent twice as much for something.
No, that is not true. You did not spend twice as much, your spent exactly the same amount. One of the transactions is useful, it is confirmed and can be didn't fun. The other is completely and absolutely useless. It is unconfirmed and will remain that way forever. Your balance does not change except for the amount you wanted to spend.
