With Truecrypt, you can encrypt the whole system partition, I guess that goes for USB sticks too. The bootloader will decrypt the whole USB partition after you supply it with the correct password.
For extra extra security, you could even have a Truecrypt file container inside the whole USB partition container, with perhaps a dummy wallet as a hidden volume, so if you are forced to open your wallet, you can just type the alternate password and then your alternate wallet with perhaps only a few coins will decrypt.
This is the best way I actually have a HDD set up like this, and cloned it to my desktop internal, offline storage drive

I really laught about the idea that are miners that control the price rise or fall ... really nowdays miners are just only people crying for profit, the real price is driven by the speculators, and how much they're willing to pay for.
I disagree with this, but hey, its an open market.

I'm starting to get annoyed at the fact that everytime someone asks for "market price"... They mention MtGox only
They don't look at the 5-10 other large markets available. The volume in the past 24 hours was about 90% at Mt. Gox. - http://bitcoincharts.com/marketsThough you can see prices at other markets remain consistently higher than at Mt. Gox, reflecting that the price at Gox is not even reflective of the true market price simply because arbitrage with other markets isn't occuring. Being a 3-day weekend in north America probably has something to do with it, ... bank transactions to the exchanges went through on the markets outside the U.S. but it will be Tuesday before funds being added via banks in the U.S. can occur. Well, I hadnt seen that MtGox was THAT much bigger than everyone else..... well then.

Take autos for example.. In the states, Ford used to be the biggest seller for 20+ years... Yet on the road there's a healthy mix, and not everyone drives a ford, nor do you see a saturation of it
I think there should be a site(s) that average market prices from all available trading venues... referring to MtGox and saying HOLY CRAP THE MARKET PRICE DROPPED because some idiot decided to sell a btc for $3 on one site...should not happen

Its the dumbfucks who don't get how a market works, and keep undercutting the majority.. that are causing the price of bitcoin to drop like this
What needs to happen is all these fucks who keep selling lower need to go away, or learn that if you sell AT market price, the market will healthily improve
Right now at $15 each, I don't know how the fuck you idiot miners are okay with such low profits. Realistically at this difficulty, it should be at $30 again, instead we have all these niggers just selling at half off thinking it will benefit them. Little do they know, its actually hurting themselves, and everyone else.

Okay I am very very paranoid about this. I have a decent sized amount of bitcoins to my name right now but they're spread out all over for safety's sake (in several market sites, mining pools, couple of wallets)
Where do I start to make sure my client is secure?
Should I not run my bitcoin client containing BTC online 24/7?
What suggestions do you have to secure my wallet?
What do you do to secure your wallet?
I already do: password protected encrypted backups to multiple sources shut down my PC at night that has the client on it change my passwords often for mining sites and selling sites

When I do this it seems I lose about 10% total hash rate. Thats the only reason I don't.
I've lost quite a bit of hash time due to downtime.... If I can tweak this enough to avoid downtime all together, I think I will

No need to launch GUIMiner twice. Sorry if I didn't clarify.
In the same GUIMiner window just hit "File -> New OpenCL Miner" and create a secondary miner. You can then tell that miner to use the same GPU/CPU and just point it to a differnent pool/local server and give it the higher -f flag. Start both up and you're good to go...
Ahhhhh brilliant! Thank you! I'll try to remember to tip you on my next pool cash out, this is really awesome advice man, thank you!

This is very, very helpful and I am going to try this asap thank you Do I need to make two different directories, or can i just launch the same executable twice (refering to GUI miner, it saves its config in %appdata% directory so if i edit one GUIminer, they all get affected for now)

If you drop your price to $600 USD or 20 BTC, I'll take it right away. Send me PM or find me in IRC under TheShoura, do not trade until GPG auth, of course

Just ran across this thread. I'm having the exact same issue. I'll try the crossfire approach. So you only crossfired two of the cards and left the other two running single?
Yes, because the cards I use only allow 2 in CF at a time... there's only 1 crossfire bridge available.
|
|
|
what happened afterwards? any solution for the problem?
Enabling Crossfire on cards 1 and 2 I was able to get all 4 cards working

I think that coding a widgets for: 1. Android 2. Symbian 3. Windows mobile to observe the basic information will be great and useful. Actually most mobile users are checking our site with iPhone and Android communicators. AFAIR we had ~8 visits with Windows Mobile, that's thousands of times less I'm one of those I log in 10-20 times a day via my Android phone to make sure all of my miners are still submitting shares... seeing as we dont have a notifier indicating when mining stops (nobody seems to have one that works) I just hit my bookmark'ed page with pw saved and go If we had an android / iPhone app that set an alarm whenever a miner goes down, I'd be willing to pit like $1-2 to the app.....and this is coming from an Android user who would rather just not have an app instead of paying a dime for it. I also did buy LogMeIn Ignition, but that was for work purposes (its $30 for those who don't know it)...but ignition is just full of win and saved my life so many times so thats totally different regardless, something as simple as (miner hasnt submitted a share in 10 minutes, trigger email to [address];[subject:MINER DOWN!]) I'm sure Tycho will get around to it sometime... but yes its a feature I yearn to have...and it would probably kill off a vast majority of arbitrary traffic to the site lol (mind you, it has to work, and i will test it lol)

how long does it take after emailing with relevant info to get limits increased? I've been waiting for a day or so now, and I'm growing impatient...
This limit is annoying, had I known about it, I would have not hit it.
Can we trade USD between acounts?

Failure threshold, does this generate a notification or something?
Trying to figure out how i can make deepbit email/text/something when one of my clients goes offline
I also wanna be able to disable it for one client, as my gaming desktop doesn't mine 24/7

:/ That kind of worries me, because my client is still not showing it How many blocks should my client read? I'm at 129074 and 1 connection... I'm getting worried! Current block is 129077. Usually it won't be confirmed until the next block is found by the pool. And I'll repeat - if you see this transaction in the payments table, you WILL receive it. You can also check http://bitcoincharts/bitcoin to see if it's still in the queue. I was just worried that I missed something.. I reinstalled Windows on Sunday and copied over the appdata folder for bitcoin. I've done that 3- times now and it worked just this time has been weird anyhow, the client updated to block 129078 and its good now, I got my big payment seems I need more patience !

normally i pull payment and it shows instantly..... its been ~15 minutes and I've yet to see payment from my last payout... kinda strange This is possible. I saw your payment in the log If you see it in your payments table, then you'll get it. :/ That kind of worries me, because my client is still not showing it How many blocks should my client read?

I found that my 5970 would not run with any of my 6870's installed. However, a 5970+5870+5870 work just fine
Just my two cents, but seems mixing isn't good.

Can you force a payout of my balance to saved address? or is that not possible? I had probably 20-30 btc in there still
