So in theory, if satoshi's are lost daily around the world, we could have a scenario where, we would all be sharing, say 100 Bitcoins.

And if a collection of big corporation wants to, they can buy say 10 000 000 bitcoins, wait until the price skyrockets, due to the increased demand, for the coins and then make gazillions, by releasing them, back into the market.

Wow, it's crazy to think, what rich companies can do, with the money they have now. 


Its not like you can just buy 10 mil BTC without changing the price.

Ja sicher, mit den richtigem Programm kann man alle unverschlüsselten Daten mitlesen.

SSL o.ä. geht auch mit dem richtigen Router/Tool (Stichwort: MITM). Private Schlüssel von einer Bitcoin app allerdings nicht, da diese nicht übertragen werden.

The discussion starts around here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=716312.msg8715769#msg8715769    

Basic summary: A two part scam

Website was caught skipping nonces to rig rolls.  This would in effect allow them to maintain a 1% house edge profit for investors, thus attract more and more investments while allowing them to still skim the site investors of all legitimate profits made. Individual users such as stars have told me that they are owed 50+ coins.

Their defense:


They claim that a new rogue developer they hired was rigging the rolls to scam them but around 2 days before the incident there is proof of them saying that the only people involved are the original two: https://i.imgur.com/SJvuc1Q.png  (refutes their argument)

Example of one of the scams:

User stars was scammed 60+ coins according to Dooglus: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=716312.msg8721251#msg8721251



As a result of this around 4000-5000 coins have already been divested. 100s of coins are owed to people who placed wagers. They still appear to be honoring divestments though so I recommend divesting your funds for the time being.


Update 1: chat on dicebitcoin is now disabled and they are refusing to return a lot of owed funds.

Since this thread is used to give me negative trust by
Ah, trade fortress, the beacon of morality  Roll Eyes
I will post my arguments here.

I had coins invested with dicebitco.in and was able to completly divest and withdraw.
Manl and Gerry paid out everyone (to my knowledge) that lost coins.
Those that have not been paid out are those that won coins. I think that is acceptable as they have more than they had before the incident and thus did not lose anything. While you can argue that the rolls are deterministic the gamblers are not, thus it makes no sense to argue in hindsight if and what they players would have risked would the nounces not have been skipped.

I agreed to wear their signature for a months and I will honor my agreement.

and 0.25441361 BTC goes to 1R8iEGbocHrpq4WNYXTAMcBLCq8rMLB3G which is an address multibit made exactly for that reason.
I'm pretty sure Multibit doesn't work like Bitcoin Core and doesn't generate any new addresses for the change... Blockchain.info doesn't either. I'm guessing spiceminer15 generated it himself sometime.

Yeah I read up on that a bit to learn how exactly Multibit handles change, only found an old thread from 2013 stating that Multibit either uses the 2nd generated address or (if that does not exist) the only available address. But since the info is so old I posted a more general statement Wink

I was not able to find in the source how Multibit exactly handles change currently. They use "change" a lot Wink A statement here [1] suggests that multibit uses or will use (when HD is live) a new address for change.

confirmed, very generous, thanks Smiley

Did you delete all the subfolders? Because the priv. keys usually have an extra backup each.

 https://multibit.org/en/help/v0.5/help_fileDescriptions.html

I uninstalled multibit as well. I will try to recover it.

its my fault so I'm not mad about it

AFAIK an uninstall does not remove the wallet files. E.g. for most windows versions they are in
Code:
%APPDATA%\MultiBit

just hit win+r enter the above and hit ok. If a folder opens you might be fine.

Should be: Don't use if you don't want to lost money.

I don't know who will use it, if it works only for fun. I should be tested and later sold or shared for free etc.

Now it's useless.

You dont get it do you? This IS the PUBLIC TEST stage, commonly known as ALPHA.

I don't understand... I made my transaction 1 BTC exactly.

Yes, but bitcoins do not exist as satoshi or as bitcoins. They exist as inputs and unspend outputs. Every transaction has one or more inputs and one or more outputs. Every input has to be spend entirely. You can not spend half of your input. You received 1.25451361 BTC in the past and now you have to spend everything in a single TX. 1 BTC go to KiQS4dcSAMhQi8roBXs7sdEt6J6QFfScH, 0.0001 go to the miners that confirmed it and 0.25441361 BTC goes to 1R8iEGbocHrpq4WNYXTAMcBLCq8rMLB3G which is an address multibit made exactly for that reason.

I hope that helps.

I do not know how multibit works.

This is not specific to multibit. Its the way bitcoin works.

8954  Other / MultiBit / Re: problem with multibit on: September 11, 2014, 06:30:16 PM
its change.
your input was >1 btc but each input has to be spend entirely, thus multibit made an extra output for the rest (change). Check your addresses its one of yours.

Its working Smiley

Apparently I did nothing wrong I was just not patient enough. I just used the same script from last time and made a cronjob so it runs every 5 minutes. After waiting some hours rrdtool generates pictures Smiley



Edit: moved pic to imgur, since I changed it.

To update I use:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
n="$(bitcoind getinfo | grep connections | egrep -o [0-9]*)"
#echo n
rrdtool update connections.rrd N:$n

and the above picture is generated by:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

rrdtool graph /../pic/con24.png
--start -86400 --title "connections 24h" -v "# connections" -w 500
--x-grid MINUTE:30:HOUR:1:HOUR:2:0:%R
DEF:min=connections.rrd:connections:MIN
DEF:avg=connections.rrd:connections:AVERAGE
DEF:max=connections.rrd:connections:MAX
LINE1:min#ff0000:"minimum"
LINE1:avg#00ff00:"average"
LINE1:max#0000ff:"maximum"

Note that the connections.rrd is in the same dir as "canhazpic.sh" and I added linebreaks to make it easier to read.

Its not yet updating via cron as I want to play around some more with the colors and make it look more like this:

the fact is that I lost btc,

Yes I get that, but if someone hands you software and says:

Here this is probably unstable and unsafe for productive use.

Why do you blame them if something indeed breaks?
8959  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbie All-Day - Ask All Your Bitcoin Questions Here! on: September 11, 2014, 12:47:34 PM
I used that bit address site and I unplugged my network connection.

Then I created several of those fancy wallets with a password and printed the blue wallets.

What is the chance, that I would be compromised, when I plug in the network again?

Using BIP38 is definitly a good way to increase the security of the paperwallet, totally forgot about that in my previous post. Smiley

Hard to say, if your machine is compromised unplugging the cable does not remove the malware. It will just sit and wait till it has a connection again.

Do they keep records of what I do, even if I am offline?

IIRC they do everything locally, thus clearing your browercache and a reboot to clear system memory should be enough.
