Quote Tell us a bit more. Why did you leave? Did you own a few coins back then and if you did, what happened with it? It is the stories and the people that are interesting about this technology. You also learn from the mistakes of others, when you go through this journey. I had something similar happen with me, because I was told about bitcoin, back in 2010 and I simply wrote it off as a fad. <Geek technology that will never succeed> Well, i tried mining some with my cpu, never got one, and kinda gave up. That and trying to make a buck to survive other ways gets in the way of fun and games. At that point there was really no point in buying any, as weird as that idea seemed. But yeah, i remember the very first time i heard of bitcoin, which was probably towards the end of 2010, i thought it was the dumbest idea ever, and that it would never go anywhere. shows you what i know lol. Quote Not sure if it would have made a difference unless you had the willpower to hold. that's a good point, im sure i'd have sold before it ever hit 1000$ the first time. there were some tough times financially for me there for a couple years. Quote Insert Quote Just found Bitcoin Core on disk that was downloaded May 2011 from sourceforge. Unfortunately the wallet is empty. oh man! wouldnt that have been a treasure if there were a pile of bitcoin in there! whoever it was that had it probably just gave up like i did.

So I'm back. You might not recognize this account , but that is because i made only a few posts around 2011. I was there at basically the beginning. I could be rich right now.. That's an odd thought! I was there, but i didn't put the time or effort in. Now im back, Bitcoin is higher than i ever thought it'd be, and i'm trading on exchanges. Live and learn. I feel dumb for not staying in, but smart for getting back in. What were you doing Bitcoin wise in 2011? Did you even know about Bitcoin?

My intent is more academic than practical. and the "look what I can do" factor. haha. I am using the default sheevaplug distro of ubuntu. What exactly is a pool? Is it just multiple machines mining for the same owners address?

Well, I've managed to compile the needed boost libs and get bitcoind compiled as well, however it is throwing an exception: Quote bitcoin server starting ************************ EXCEPTION: 11DbException DbEnv::open: Invalid argument bitcoin in AppInit() terminate called after throwing an instance of 'DbException' what(): DbEnv::open: Invalid argument Any thoughts on this one? I think im using version 4.7 of the db lib if i remember correctly, maybe its a version difference issue? unless im just starting it wrong without the right arguments or something.

I agree too. I wouldn't have found this place if it wasn't for the information on it which was crawled by a search engine.

I was referred to this topic from https://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=3940.msg56271#msg56271 . Did you have to change anything in the makefile? If so what all did you have to change and/or replace?

well I compile stuff, i just don't have much experience with ARM specifics. What's the thought? take out the intel stuff without replacing it with something arm specific then? Seems easy enough. I'll look into that ribuck edit took out all the amd/intel stuff and replaced it with nothing to see if that will work. seems I need to actually compile some of boost.

Any idea on where to look for what to replace them with? That's kindof what I was thinking too, but I figured i'd post here so the community was aware of the issue.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Bitcoin generation on ARM hardware

So I've got a SheevaPlug And I'm wanting to set it up for bitcoin generation. I downloaded the latest sourcecode, installed various dependencies, and i ran "make -f makefile.unix bitcoind" and after it compiled 8 .o files it left me with this error: Quote g++ -c -O2 -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wformat -g -D__WXDEBUG__ -D__WXGTK__ -DNOPCH -DFOURWAYSSE2 -DUSE_SSL -I"/usr/local/include/wx-2.9" -I"/usr/local/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-debug-static-2.9" -msse2 -O3 -march=amdfam10 -o obj/sha256.o sha256.cpp cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-msse2" sha256.cpp:1: error: bad value (amdfam10) for -march= switch make: *** [obj/sha256.o] Error 1 Anyone know how to fix this one? I'm not real familiar with compiling for ARM yet, though it seems its trying to compile for an AMD compatible processor which the sheevaplug doesn't have.
