Hallo,
wie ich gerade bemerkt habe macht lieferservice.de jetzt wohl mit Lieferando.de gemeinsame Sache und eine Zahlung mit Bitcoin ist nicht mehr möglich.
Schade, muss ich heute wohl selber kochen...

...
could you copy the wallet to a hard disk or better internal flash drive?
...
Now it's working. Don't know why I wasn't thinking of this myself. Thank you! |

Hello, I am trying to access an old backup wallet and bitcoin-qt is stuck in rescan, it is taking forever. I am using Ubuntu and bitcoin-core v0.9.2.1 with the blockchain and wallet on an usb hard-drive.

2014-08-30 23:49:40 Still rescanning. At block 3105. Progress=0.000031
I am confused because my CPU utilization is only at about 1% ... I know that bitcoin-core does a rescan because of the old wallet but at this speed it will take forever. Is it rescanning all the blocks in the blockchain or just the last 318316 blocks?Any ideas why this process is so slow (and my CPU only at 1%)? Any help would be appreciated, BC12345 Edit: Ok, I just realized that 318316 blocks is almost the complete blockchain at this point. |

Create three copies of your wallet.dat or your paper wallets.
Encrypt these copies with three different, strong passwords.
Store this copies at three different and safe locations (e.g. bank deposit boxes at different banks) each with the passwords for the other copies.
This way your bitcoins are safe if one of your copies gets compromised or stolen but you can still access them through the other two copies.

Another thing that might be good to know (correct me if I'm wrong):
When you encrypt your wallet, the keypool with your spare private keys is flushed and a new set of spare addresses is created.
This means that you should update your backups immediately if you encrypt your wallet, otherwise you might loose some/all of your coins when you send a transaction and try to recover/restore your wallet with your backups.
Nope. You're not wrong. As a matter of fact, this other guy mentioned it a few posts back in this thread: . . . Also be aware that when you encrypt your wallet, it tosses out the entire 100 address pool, and generates a new set of 100 addresses. If you create a backup before encrypting, it won't be good for very long after encrypting.
Whoops, sorry... |

Hi,
does anyone know if it's possible to configure the folder destination for the "wallet.dat" independently from the "-datadir"-folder?
Edit:
I'm using bitcoin-qt.

Does anyone know if there's a live stream of the mega press conference this evening?

I have bought recently and am not concerned if the price drops.
If the price drops, I will chalk it up to "Oh well, I missed a better opportunity to buy I could have never known for certain would exist", and that it will go up again eventually before I need to spend that money.
I am convinced that one day, which could be tomorrow, or could be 6 months, 12 months, 18 months from now, somebody who owns a single building in all of Manhattan (which on paper is worth more than Bitcoin as a whole) will make it over our arduous learning curve and will say OMG, $150 million for the future of money is a god damn bargain, this is it, right here right now, and the risk is manageable. And they will act accordingly. And at that point, buying bitcoin at anything remotely what we're used to will be a long gone opportunity, and people will be saying, "WTH was I thinking listing an ask at $15?"
In my view, the only thing standing between now and then, which may or may not happen, is some threat to the block chain or a major vulnerability, or someone successfully demonstrates a 51% attack or scary double spend, which would cause a temporary sharp dip in the price, followed by a fix within days. People without the ability to assess the technical aspects of a problem and the soundness of any fix will fold and run, and meanwhile I know my well-secured paper bitcoins will be safe. I'll be buying and telling everyone else I know to buy, watching the price slowly climb back as everyone else realizes that Bitcoin will always win the long game, the same way BitTorrent wins the long game against the Hollywood media cops.
This. ( and this) |

Of course you are right. The Prisoners Dilemma is an oversimplification but there is an aspect of it. The problem is there are people who are even hoarding the Bitcoins they buy regularly and spend nothing.
Although I have no idea how many, but by observation on volatility it seems significant.
I agree. If I were to speculate on the causes, I'd say that to a great extend people are holding on to their coins not so much until they are worth a fortune but until there is something useful they can spend them on. You know, there is only so many alpaca socks you really need  The situation seems to be better in the US, but for the rest of the world, the amount of goods and services that can be purchased for Bitcoins and that one really needs is still rather limited. Many people seem to happily pledge to buy Reddit gold, donate to the EFF or Wikipedia if only they could use Bitcoin for that. Sure, some probably do so in part because they simply want to reward Bitcoin acceptance, but most would probably genuinely like to help these organizations and for any number reasons prefer not using credit cards or PayPal. Until people find a better use for their coins I can not blame them for holding on to them or even enjoy trading/speculating with them a bit. In any case, I don't really see hoarding as a long term problem of Bitcoin. I completely agree with that. As for the rocket analogy: I think we are still in the blueprint/prototype stage... |

SR volume is a tiny fraction of Bitcoin economy. There are convincing estimates based on the academic study of SR published about four months ago.
I call bullshit on that. If you were writing the truth you'd cite that study in detail. But you didn't. I am not saying that the first statement is correct but I think maybe he was referring to this http://arxiv.org/pdf/1207.7139v1 (chapter 5.2 "Transaction volumes") paper. |

The name is BurbolGii (some say I'm a genius but most say I'm a retard)...
Where am I, how did I get here? Damn, my head hurts!
It looks like I am on some kind of starship... Where is everyone?
Oh, what a nice, blinking machine! I wonder what happens if I connect this two wires?
BZZZZZZ!
Ouch!
Rattling sound....
Uh oh, I think I'll better hide for a while...
