I'm wondering though - I have an HTC Desire I don't use anymore but it's a silver one but only black & brown are noted on your website.
Can I still exchange this, and if so - how?

When you send bitcoins from an address it will send the desired bitcoins to the address you told it to, and any left over bitcoins will be sent to a completely different address. I believe armory is deterministic in that you don't need to keep track of all the newly created addresses. But if it doesn't, then a paper wallet won't be sufficient unless you print a new one each time you make a transaction.
Ehm, I believe you have been misinformed that doesn't match any of my bitcoin knowledge. Where did you learn this from? |

How does armory, on the offline computer, know if you have been sent coins? How can the offline computer ever be up to date? Or am I missing something  Ahh! That's simple,, it doesn't know. But on your online pc you can have a read only wallet (since all transactions are public..) Where you can keep track of it! |

Okay, so every wallet has its own public and private keys. I will quickly explain this concept. Public keys are known to everyone, however private keys are.. private. You use a private key to encrypt a piece of text and anyone can then decrypt it with the public key. And since only you known the private key, it can basically be seen as your autograph only then it's safer. Your private key hence is basically your autograph or password to your wallet. And you can simply write the privately key (s) down as a "backup". Now what you do with an offline wallet is have two pcs, one offline and one online. First, you create a transaction and sign it on the offline pc. You then transfer the signed transaction (or encrypted text file) to the online pc and transmit it over the network. Your private keys have never been online and your transaction is complete  . |

I'll have to look into bitpay. But why use bitcoin at all if I'm just going to instantly convert into USD? Might as well use paypal or a conventional payment processor right?
As far as the fact that it was stable up until 2 months ago. that's great, but it doesn't help me NOW when I'm considering whether to add an option to pay by bitcoin...
Don't forget! Paypal asks what? 10% fee? I believe bitpay is 1%! Also, no tax as far as I am aware! So, thats a huge plus! Only the decreased cost is totally worth it! |

It is dependant on the amount send and related fee. If the fee is too low, it will take very long for it to be confirmed!
|

Honestly you don't have to care. Using bitpay you can simply set a price in dollars, let people pay in bitcoin and instantly convert it in dollars! And note, once bitcoin gets bigger the fluctuations will only become less! |

This feels like something to say in IRC. Also, you spelled cheap wrong. aughhhhhhh hahahahahahahahahahahahah sorry everyone I just get really excited. I swear im not dumb, got my BS IN Psychology, but spelling has always been my Achilles heel. usually i get screwed by the swings but this time i got it! ya!!!! im so excited! made like 3.9 coins. wow adrenalin rush for sure. couple hundred. you gotta try that some time, maybe a few coins but if you catch it just right and have a little luck...well a lot for me you can make some coin! No problem  I can imagine it being great. I myself bought at 250. So I'm just out of trading for now..might get a few more later but now I'm just not taking any more chances. |

Took the address out of OP.
Just doesn't seem too likely and is more likely someone trying to get free money.
That was quite fast! Great to know we have amazing moderators here! Thanks for all your work! (I dont have a lot of BTC but I send your a little donation for your trouble! ) Edit: looks like it's still there?  |

If you have wayward Bitcoins send them to ADDRESS REMOVED instead. I could do with a pint as well as Zilarion!
Glad to see others who think the same way! Maybe we should call this the give random people pints post. Would indeed be a more informative and useful post. |

I would have no idea why not. They should be based on the same principle. Although I am not sure if the hashing works exactly the same.
Clearly I know nothing of litecoin. Glad to see others corrected me. Guess you learn every day!

Well, if the person who created it is ignoring it...it will die, plain and simple However, if a person, such as myself, comes along and cares about it and thinks it's gonna be the next big thing, they are going to do a much better job of looking for interesting articles and trying to spur discussion and interest on the subject! I'm taking care of my terminal mother and am living at her house in the country with nothing to do, so I think I will be a good mod  Okay well, fair enough. I wish you the best off luck with your endeavours. |

Hey! Welcome to the forums Note though, that there already is a big big thread for introductions Try posting here |
|

|

I always wonder, why create more subreddits if one of them isn't doing well already? This only splits up the community even more.

I have a question that just popped into my mind.
We only "confirm" a transaction after 6 confirmations have been made on the said money, right?
Now, however - we also have that bitcoin payments are instant. Now the question here is, how can we make sure no one just pays in a shop or something similar, give said person the goods purchased and then find out later that the transaction would actually be denied (due to double payments or something similar)?
Can someone shed some light on this question?

Cheers, just added one - I actually forgot to add one ^^ If you have any questions, feel free to ask - I am using a HD7970 running GUIMiner
Nice card! Couldn't stretch to that on my budget, it's mainly for games tbh... the mining is a fringe benefit  Will send a couple of Satoshi your way now Thanks for the donation! My card is mainly for gaming too, although sometimes I just mine some sweet satosihi |

Honestly, I think it is a good idea, but we'll have to see - It's actually just for newbies, and the main forum has categories, so it's just to 'meet' the forum, and get used to how everything works.

You might also want to read up on flags, you probably did something like -w256 -f60 but there are quite a few more, and it's usually great to know what they actually mean! Since they can tweak how you want to mine. Info on it here.Edit: for a quick overview of all of them, check hereThanks I'll have a play with the settings. I'm getting 256Mh/s at the moment which is a hell of a lot more than I was getting before I'll send a donation your way now [Edit] I can't see your address in signature or profile... pm me and I'll send on the donation Cheers, just added one - I actually forgot to add one ^^ If you have any questions, feel free to ask - I am using a HD7970 running GUIMiner |
