1  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [PSA] Yield Generators should stop using the Hidden Service on: December 15, 2015, 05:47:04 PM
It's always been the case that yield generators using Tor should connect to CGAN directly, rather than using the hidden service. Tor hidden services provide privacy for the server, which is irrelevant in our case: yield generators are still IRC clients, connecting to a server with known identity. Using the hidden service also incurs higher latency, as it requires a larger number of Tor circuits.

There's a PR open which will ignore multiple liquidity offers from the same hostmask. Roughly speaking, the probability weighing for the hidden service will be shared between all liquidity connecting to it. Please do the profitable thing and move your liquidity to direct connections.

tl;dr: Yield generators can use Tor, but should not use the hidden service.

This is fucking bullshit. Fuck this project, you are all a bunch of idiots without a shred of common sense amongst you. Good fucking bye.

You need this at the top of your config:

Code:
[BLOCKCHAIN]
blockchain_source = bitcoin-rpc

Then you need to input your rpc user and pass in the correct spots of the file. Also I see you have "socks5=true", you should comment the line for the clearnet irc channel and uncomment the hidden service.

If you want to spend from your bitcoin core wallet then you need to use "--rpcwallet". Check the "--help" menu.

Here's a sample of my config:

Code:
[BLOCKCHAIN]
blockchain_source = bitcoin-rpc
# blockchain_source options: blockr, bitcoin-rpc, json-rpc, regtest
network = mainnet
rpc_host = 127.0.0.1
rpc_port = 8332
rpc_user = redacted
rpc_password = redacted

[MESSAGING]
#host = irc.cyberguerrilla.org
channel = joinmarket-pit
port = 6697
usessl = true
socks5 = true
socks5_host = 127.0.0.1
socks5_port = 9050
# for tor
host = 6dvj6v5imhny3anf.onion
#host = a2jutl5hpza43yog.onion
maker_timeout_sec = 90

[POLICY]
# merge_algorithm = greediest, greedy, gradual, default
merge_algorithm = default

Wallet's needed for importing the addresses as watching only. Otherwise we could be using pruned nodes already. See here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1169146.0;topicseen
4  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Synchronizing wallet balance from a pruned node on: October 31, 2015, 05:28:38 PM
Mostly as a precaution as it hadn't been adequately tested.  It's enabled in master now and has been for a long time... running master should be a no brainer.

I'm really interested in adding a pruned node to my Tails + JoinMarket scripts for users. I think it is very important, especially now that Tails comes bundled with Electrum 1.9.8, which is obsolete. End users are having a horrible time trying to install newer version of Electrum, mostly because of the amnesiac properties of Tails.

Anyway, it would be very powerful for Tails end users to have a node at their disposal using only ~2GB of space. Right now most Tails + JoinMarket users are using the blockr.io api call for address balance/confirmations because they tend to not have a usb stick large enough to store a traditional unindexed node, and this is terrible for security even though it's over Tor (address correlation, etc.). If I could offer a small size Bitcoin Core node for Tails users... well you get it.

So I guess my questions are:

1. Do you think it's too early to offer to users as an option? Even with a strict warning?

2. Would it be a horrible idea to offer weekly updated downloads of the pruned chain? I could host them on github, and users can curl them over https. Also I could sign them and users can verify. My reasoning on this is bootstrapping the client is going to be my next hurdle in getting this adopted.

What is a criminal? If those deciding what a criminal is, are by their own definitions criminals. Then this whole discussion is a bit of a circle jerk.
6  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: CoinJoin: Bitcoin privacy for the real world on: October 31, 2015, 02:55:26 AM
I can't see any reason for why JoinMarket development shouldn't be give some or all of this fund.
7  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Synchronizing wallet balance from a pruned node on: October 31, 2015, 02:36:41 AM
It only really works, though, if you have another node with full chain ready for importing addresses as necessary.

What do you mean by this?

I just pruned a node two days ago, and I've been running a yieldgen bot from it for some hours now. I just imported my addresses to the pruned nodes wallet like normal with a new JoinMarket wallet, but no rescan because these are fresh addresses. I've already had two successful joins, and walletnotify works without a problem.

I will continue work on tailsjoin, and I will offer pull requests when
possible for JoinMarket. Although this whole thing was a litte much,
I'll be the first to admit that I flew off the handle directly. That
is my way, and I would argue that society needs people that act a bit
irrational in order to draw in the rational.

Thank you to everyone that participated in the conversation regarding
this issue. Thank you Chris for making the appropriate change. Times
like these will only make the project stronger in the long run, and
all of us as people as well.

My site is fixed, my github is fixed. Lets all have a good day.

Hey guys, why don't you set a vote system (with all developers - and maybe investors too) in order to choose where the money is gonna be invested?

This has nothing to do with where the funds go. My gripe is with the fact that a hidden "idiot/ignorance" tax was added to the tumbler with a default amount of 1.5%. If users weren't paying daily attention to code changes, they knew nothing about this "donation" amount being automatically deducted from their funds and sent to Chris Belcher. This is how things sat for two weeks until I started to make shit about it. Now Chris wants to act superior to everyone (including waxwing who is the only reason JoinMarket is even worth using) by only answering easy questions and intentionally manipulating the conversation.

Even the supposed announcement made to quell us into shutting up was manipulative. It is titled "Funding development of JoinMarket" and it's not even stickied. It should be an announcement that clearly states there has been a forced opt-out policy and it should be stickied at the very least. This just feels like disrespect piled on top of more disrespect and contempt for us, the not Chris Belchers.

For posterity, here's the thread in question: https://www.reddit.com/r/joinmarket/comments/3q27ys/funding_development_of_joinmarket/

Take a look at how to not address a topic head on. This is a wonderful example of an attempt to beat around a bush until everyone forgets it a bush. It's truly infuriating, as a problem solving human being, to have to deal with someone that acts like a religious fanatic, politician, or a used car salesman.

My view on this matter https://www.reddit.com/r/joinmarket/comments/3q27ys/funding_development_of_joinmarket/

JoinMarket will not exist long term unless development is funded. Chainalysis and Elliptic have dozens of full time developers working to destroy bitcoin's fungibility because they have no problem getting VC funding.

I'm looking for someone to take over the maintenance of my Github:
https://github.com/tailsjoin/tailsjoin.
I no longer wish to participate in the development of this project because of this:
https://github.com/chris-belcher/joinmarket/pull/272.

If it's not clear to Chris Belcher that EVERYONE deserves to know where their funds
are going, and how much, then I don't want to have anything to do with it.
Regardless of how this PR goes or what happens with the donation bullshit, I am no
longer working on this.
