1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [BBR] Boolberry [GUI Wallet - Windows Miner - Poloniex] on: July 12, 2014, 12:30:36 AM
I have started a pool for a few of my machines. Working on the getting started guides and will hopefully have some binaries put together shortly.

I will have a proper thread announcement soon but would like to see if anyone can donate some hash time so I can try to ensure stability and resource usage.

The pool was just built from the newest boolbd, and pool-boolberry-node with support for auto-updated scratchpad.bin

I am also wondering how people would feel with a dice site for BBR?

@cryptozoidberg
Do reward blocks give out the transaction fee?

A dice site that can use the blockchain to start off with would be nice to try and increase txn counts and fees given to miners.

Apart from the "public key" problem, there is another advantage I can think of for using new change addresses, which is privacy.

Cool, thanks!
So then, if I want the extra privacy that I already get with Qt Wallet on my laptop, maybe it's a good idea for me to use a different iPhone wallet besides bitWallet, so one that also uses change addresses? Any recommendations?
Thanks again!

I am not sure exactly about iPhone, but I always liked the fact that blockchain had multiple clients and your wallet was accessible from any device in case you ever lost/broke/stolen this one. Although this does step away from keeping the wallet all to yourself. Blockchain's wallet is quite secure.

there should be a boardgame that can incorporate betting/bitcoin/altcoins into it somehow... this would be quite hawt... like monopoly where each person puts up the same ante say 0.05... get the default set of 'cash'... then play to timer, first to a $ amount, or first to hotel... winner gets all bets

Where to buy the script ?
I will run it in my language, not in english.


This forum script is one of SOOO SOOO MANY forum scripts.

This one is also probably HEAVILY hacked from the base source to get the custom posting requirements/signature restrictions and other features.

Use le google. Search for the one that has the larger community, and runs on a platform you are familiar with Linux/Doze PHP/Py/Ruby/Node.

And then hopefully the one that has the most options you require in the base source.

Okay, so a relative of mine who has never heard of Bitcoin in her life was asking me exactly how it worked. I tried explaining, but I'm not entirely sure she got it (or she was just refusing to comprehend what I was saying -- she does that sometimes). I suppose I could show her a few of the same videos I watched when I first heard about Bitcoin, but I'm not even sure she'd even really watch them. Any tips, guys?

Show him the bitcoin video first then only explain, it should be easier.

I like to explain the whole mining situation like this...

people get 'paid' to record the transactions of other people.

making 'blocks' takes all the transactions from the last agreed upon event (another block) packages that shiz up and signs off saying... hai guys, this shit happened over here...
but to package up and sign off on those transactions they have to generate a fancy bomb looking ass stamp that gets even more intricate over time that everyone else is cool with...

that is why when a block reward is given... they also receive the transaction fees!

but then you gotta tell em that nowadays nobody on their own can be as artistic as required to generate those fancy looking stamps... they gotta get a whole room full of monkeys to work on their own part of it of the stamp

I can't tell if this is a troll post... maybe not... but sadly yes that hardware is garbage for really any sort of coin...

if it's a cpu coin worth mining it has a gpu miner...
if it's a cpu coin worth mining that doesn't have a gpu miner... you will need a < 3 year old cpu...

if it's a gpu coin... hah
if it's a >2 coin... hah and... go asic
