Actually nope! 0.96 not available for Mac yet, just re downloads 0.95.1
Damn

Which version are you trying to run? The latest version (0.96.4 RC2) has the fix.

Sorry for the nube question but Ive just upgraded to Sierra and seriously need my armory up and running, won't launch.
How do I add this code to my MacBook Pro 17" ?

Armory definitely works for me on 10.12.2. Just sent and received coins today, actually. Smiley That said, can you do me a favor? Go to /Applications/Armory.app/Contents/MacOS/py/usr/lib/armory/armoryengine/ and edit ArmoryUtils.py at Line 1267. Once saved, start Armory and see if it finishes starting up.

Old:
Code:
LOGINFO('   Preferred Encoding    : ' + locale.getpreferredencoding())

New:
Code:
prefEnc = locale.getpreferredencoding()
if prefEnc == None:
   if os.environ.get('LC_ALL', '').upper() == 'UTF-8':
      prefEnc = 'utf-8'
   else:
      prefEnc = 'Unknown'
LOGINFO('   Preferred Encoding    : ' + prefEnc)

EDIT: Added a suggested fix.

Apparently MiningSweden has bought S9s
the launch should be just around the corner
5  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Say goodbye to decentralization on: January 02, 2016, 01:49:59 PM
Sill it's pretty scary to think that one single company could own 51% of the hash rate.
I'm not sure I completely understand the extents of it but doesn't it give them absolute power of decision over what is and what isn't recorded on the blockchain and how transactions happen?

There were be always other people who will mine. There were be always other businesses which will compete with Bitfury and will be always someone who will invent another better thing than that which have already Bitfury. As for the blochckchain cannot be made nothing that can affect it. He is totally independent and decentralized. Is the amount of all the transactions made from every person who send bitcoin from all around the world. So nothing can happen to it.

But what happens when all the halving has taken place and we hit the proposed 21 000 000 total bitcoins.
The difficulty is already knocking out the small individuals who are presumably the life and blood of the whole system...
Does the whole currency then get sold back to highest bidder ie: illuminati banksters and we are back to square one again..??
How does mining carry on after that if there are no rewards coming from the blockchain ... ??
How does the whole currency perpetuate into the future ... ??
6  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Solo mining question on: January 02, 2016, 01:36:26 PM
The next difficulty is estimated to rise about 20%. That is a lot. I wonder if the S5 is still profitable for the next month.

a single s5 can earn you $90 per month, with a 0.05 per hour for electricity cost, you have only a consumption of $21

so it's still profitable, because when we were at 0.011 earning the price was only 230, now it's double that, but the earning is not half of it...

to say it doesn't work is laughable.  Perfect, no far from it but Bitcoin is spreading around the globe so yea it is doing something right if you ask me and I believe many others feel the same way.

No nothing is broken, all is working 100%
Thats my point.
But it doesnt make sense to buy a new laptop bcos Armory discontinues Mac support.
Im really not sure I have the abilities to make this 'build" work on my current Armory.
Yeah, Mac probably changed a lot of things so that the building it might not work with your version.

P.S. This is why you should use Linux  Wink

Armory updated 0.93.3
Core updated 0.11.2
Mac 10.10.5
All working 100%
9  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory 0.93.3 with BIP62 compliance on: December 21, 2015, 01:41:30 PM
Long story short, you should update Core because you just should, and you should update Armory or you'll have trouble spending coins.
thanks, short story doesnt work for me,
As I said everything is working fine ie deposits payments balances etc etc.
I need to understand why it wont work
As a layman I dont even know what a build is , or how to use that 'build' with my existing Armory
And this bothers me bcos I have mining funds coming in every day.
So do I just transfer all funds back to Core and uninstall Armory and carry on like before without all the hassle ?
Or ?
Are you saying that something is broken or are you just wondering why you should upgrade when nothing is broken?

If it is the latter, the reason you should upgrade is because the latest versions have bug fixes that fix some important issues and they implement new BIPs. The latest version fixes a vulnerability in UPnP which made it possible to crash a node with a malicious UPnP server on the network. There are fixes to reduce the effects of spam attacks on the network so that your node doesn't crash from an overload of transactions. There are fixes to optimize memory and reduce memory leaks. Lastly there are additions to support BIP65 and BIP113. BIP65 support means that a soft fork will happen which enables OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY. Although soft forks are backwards compatible, sometimes soft forks can be problematic like the issue that happened with a soft fork back in July. However those running the latest version will not be affected by most forking issues, especially those like the one in July.

No nothing is broken, all is working 100%
Thats my point.

10  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [9000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: December 21, 2015, 01:36:11 PM
I used antpool and slush, and let me tell you, antpool got many blocks, but slush is more reliable and fair. Remember antpool cheated a lot of their miners by hiding blocks etc.
Slush would never do that.. never.
I disagree,
I think slush is cheating you right now,
These pool owners know the tricks to manipulate the pool and fill their own wallets...
Amazing how things start to rectify once 10Ph leaves the pool,
This is the owner making sure he can afford that new house or vacation overseas, its just greed.
One person (owner) prioritizing their needs ahead of all the workers that actually make the pool.
And its definitely cheating.

And it takes a real coward to do it in such a deviant and sly manner....
Still no comment from the pool owner......
You dont think thats odd....

These are hard accusatuions, can you provide some evidence?

We dont have any proof and thats the problem,
If we had proof at least something could be done,
Do you have any proof to the contrary ?
When there is no integrity there can be no trust.
If antpool can do it so can slush.

Then with a BTC halvening mid next year its lights out without an S7 or better.




What is this Btc halving next year Huh

check the countdown here

Clock here

30 weeks to go

Thanks for the response,
Well thats great, kinda makes me think well whats the point then...
only benefit I can see would be the difficulty lowering but then the large pools are in a far better financial position to carry on mining so the individual miners would probably drop out before anyone else.

Im on Core 0.10.0  and Armoury 0.93.2,
Mac OSX 10.10.5
Everything working fine,
Why would I need to update ? ?
16  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [9000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: December 11, 2015, 04:29:58 AM
I think the problem is not in Slush's pool but in that the big pools like Antpool are cheating somehow.

Look the whole network should generate 144 blocks roughly in 24 hrs. The power of whole network is around 700 PH. The power of say Ant pooll is ~ 160 PH. So it should generate around 32 - 33 blocks per 24 hrs but it generates 56 - 58 the last week.

So Slush and other relatively fair  pools lack blocks

Interesting point.
This could be a valid reason.
Antpool are definitely cheaters.
17  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [9000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: December 10, 2015, 03:24:14 PM
Might head back to Discus , very stable income there.
18  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [9000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: December 10, 2015, 03:01:52 PM
But where to go?
CK Pool has only cracked 2 blocks in almost 24hours........😕
19  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [9000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: December 08, 2015, 04:28:59 AM
The naivety and loyalty of those here is quite unsettling,
Every big pool starts out cracking plenty blocks and building a happy client base.
Somewhere down the line the luck miraculously changes and everybody gets screwed.
It's all a load of bullshnit ..
How is a 9 or 12 hour block even possible.
These pool operators all learn the tricks eventually and all of a sudden the luck changes and no one can be held accountable.
The pool operators are just filling up their personal bank accounts at our expense.
It's the same with all big business , greed and self importance take over and integrity flies out the window.
Bad luck my ..s
Be sure somebody at the top is making a fat profit and screwing over all the rest of us.

First 30 khs just disappeared of my account.
Then absolutely no response to my ticket as to why and ticket deleted.
Now my username and password has been blocked.
So I've lost all my invested money.
