Unfortunately the wallet silently fails, so you lose any privacy benefits if it can not connect.
I think connecting to a Tor hidden node makes more sense for now, since it's already authenticated and encrypted. The wallet currently doesn't connect to those though.
If he's running the default version of Android Wallet then it would still hve the bloom filter to protect privacy to some extent (at the cost of bandwitdh, obviously). CubicEarth, did you end up setting this up? Not yet. I (mostly) give up being a computer nerd in the summer time. I fight forest fires in the wilderness, often sleeping in a tent for weeks on end, and occasionally flying around mountain ranges in a helicopter. At some point, perhaps in a few months, I will try to connect the pieces as described, and I will report my findings in this thread. Wow, sounds much more thrilling than talking on an internet forum. Have fun and come back safely! |

The worst part of this to me is that Micon is taking the sting for simply being brave enough to admit what he was doing. As far as I can tell, he merely put a friendly face and a front door onto an otherwise anonymous business. Anyway, I'm just saying that I hope that the silent partners from seals with clubs who stayed anonymous and are completely off the hook are going to be paying micons fees and his rent and whatnot for a long time. Nevertheless, it seems that things could have been a lot worse for Micon so in that sense there is good news here. The man gets to stay with his family and avoid jail. |

@ Direct dice, thanks for the clarification!
Can't edit a prediction post and I just saw that that score was already taken, mine is Bolivia 2 Peru 4 |

Just don't want this question to get buries so that OP doesn't see it when they do post here:
In a knockout match, which score is the one for the prize:
1) final score including Penalty Kick shootout (can be very high scores, but never a draw)
2) final score at 120mins (could be a draw)
3) final score at 90mins (could be a draw)
Just want to clarify since we're using tournament games and now this question arises.
In any football game if you bet on 'Team A to win 2-1' the score has to be 2-1 in the 90 minutes (plus whatever few minutes injury time there is). If for example it was 1-1 after normal time & then Team A scores to make it 2-1 after 30 mins extra time then you lose the bet. So to use DirectBet prediction game as an example you need to predict what you think the score will be in 90 minutes (+ injury time). What happens in extra time or penalties is irrelevent. If you think it will go to penalties or extra time just predict whatever score the draw is you predict within normal time. I'm pretty sure all of the above is right, that's the way it works in UK bookies. @LFC_Bitcoin I basically assumed this was the case, but it still seems like the OP should say so when the next game gets posted. And if it is the case, it's probably worth adding to the OP "prediction game applies to score at 90 minutes +stoppage", ie the final score after normal time. If it wasn't the case, it would be interesting because some of these last-minute guesses (7-6, etc) would actually have a better chance in knockout games, and all predictions of a draw would be pointless. |

If it's that important or you're that concerned PM the op rather than spamming it in here.
Asking a question about a game that's about to start isn't spamming. Contacting the OP in a PM isn't viable because then I'd be the only one who knows the answer and the rules are going to apply to everyone. But hey, thanks for your feedback! Just don't want this question to get buries so that OP doesn't see it when they do post here:
In a knockout match, which score is the one for the prize:
1) final score including Penalty Kick shootout (can be very high scores, but never a draw)

Our current mining infrastructure is rewarded 12.5 BTC per block in inflation and about 0.1 BTC per block in fees. That would mean that if inflation stopped tomorrow, mining would have to be cut more than a hundred fold. In this sort of environment, is it appropriate to be talking about methods that would reduce fees? It's particularly obscene to insist that the block size should be large enough to accommodate all desired transactions, as this implicitly means near zero transaction fees as well.
But if inflation stopped tomorrow then the value of that 0.1BTC per block would surely skyrocket. Or maybe I'm missing something. I'm not suggesting that the block size should be large enough to accomodate all transactions, but what about a block size which accomodates transactions with at least a certain fee rate in at least a certain time (on average).
The blockchain right now is about 36GB in size. This takes many hours to download even on a solid connection in the western world. For this reason, most users don't run a fully verifying Bitcoin node, and the network is the worse for it. While this is annoying, it's still tolerable for the average PC. How many people are going to bother running a node when they need to buy a dedicated hard drive for it, or a more expensive internet connection? Also, increasing block sizes carries an exponential cost to the network that also needs to be covered by fees.
But this is why we want pruning, right? Won't a lot of the storage issues be dealt with in the next release with pruning? Or, again, maybe I'm misunderstanding (it happens too often, ha!). |

Question for OP, in case of a knockout match chosen (like yesterday's Chile Uruguay match) is the winning score the one at full time (in could be tied) or the final score (it can never be tied) or the score after any shootout (it can never be tied)?
I hope you understand my question. Often a match score that finishes in pentalty kicks is shown:
team a 1 (4) team b 1 (3)
Where the pks are shown in parans. Anyway, just curious.

Thanks for the link to that thread, RedDiamond. I just read through it and I'd say I'm basically caught up on the issues at play. I'm hoping that they either start shipping their own C for berkely db (as gmaxwell suggested they would once distros stop carrying it at all) or move to another solution soon. It's silly to have to add old repos in order to build an up-to-date software package. |

I'm quite surprised that their bot counts the markup nodes as text. That seems quite broken. Are you use this person is actually getting paid for these posts with extra markup?
Omkifuse is going to end up ruining his ability to participate in ad-campaigns if he keeps it up---and a hero account at that, no less?!

@MZ, thanks for the comment. I'd be quite happy to see some sort of "choose the site" option for Android Wallet. The other thing they could do which would make it easy would be to make the transaction id copyable. Currently you can click "qr code" and see an image, but this doesn't help if you're trying to go to a browser---you can't copy-n-paste that qr code anywhere---and since this is a mobile wallet, you're already using your phone and you can't take a picture of the phone's screen using the phone. Anyway, I'd just hope for some kind of upgrade here. Maybe I'll see if I can do it myself and submit a pull request this weekend.

they own shit , they are creating worthless tokens and bilking others for other (arguably worthless tokens).
Actually, from this thread, it seems like people like Cryptojerk are creating the worthless tokens and Pumper's group are just doing the bilking. Either way, you'd like to think that the altcoin people would serious up a bit. I see so many "up 2000%!" threads; how long will it take for people to stop throwing away their money on these schemes? |

Why are Legendary Members only worth 1-2 BTC? A Legendary Member can make over 6 BTC in 1 year on a good signature campaign. Seems stupid that somebody would dedicate themselves to the forum for 3 years to become a Legendary Member & then sell the account for a measly 1 BTC.
I presume it's very rare to see a Legendary Member sell their account?
If you look closely at this thread you'll see that people are shouting prices at each other left and right and it's really not clear where any of the data comes from. Just like you said, some of the prices are surprisingly low, but others by other posters are surprisingly high (who would by a Jr. account for any price?). I think the best thing to do is to figure that this thread is basically who are buying/selling to shout their price a bit to see if they can manipulate the market. What else can it be without any real data? There is real data -- it's just not a liquid market. So while you may see one Hero Member sold at 0.45 BTC, you are unlikely do find another. So this really isn't a good indicator of price. I think when BTC turns bullish again, we will see renewed interest in the forum and in buying accounts. Maybe then, we will see more liquidity. I don't know how you can know any data about this sort of thing unless you are: 1) an escrow who does the trades 2) a buyer 3) a seller Even if you are one of these three because of the anonymity allowed here it's never clear who you're actually dealing with. You could easily be an escrow and also be a buyer and a seller would never know better. Even if you are one of these three you still don't know what other people's deals look like because everything is done in secret. You say there is data, but I don't se how any of the people saying "look here", or "here's my list" can be counted as offering verifiable data. |

lol i guess thats crypto down the shitter then
Actually it seems like it's just shitty crypto down the shitter. Which is kinda where it belongs. If your cryptos are so weak as to fall to a few guys with a pump-n-dump group then the shitter is where you belong. If you're one of the people buying into a crypto that belongs in the shitter then the mistake is on you. Here's the thing about stronger cryptos: Pumper can't crash 'em. If he could, he would. Pumper's got no control over respectable cryptos because he'll just lose his money if tries. The only cryptos that can fall to these kinds of jokesters are the ones that shouldn't be bought or sold in the first place. This is the definition of the empirical approach. Good cryptos have to be able to take attacks. If you can't take an attack then what is a thread full of crying going to do about it? |

Please tend to the hot wallet. I've been trying to withdraw a mini amount of 0.02 btc for two days now (I've finally gambled it away), and I have not been able to :/
This doesn't give the best impression of you.
report if they fixed your problem please, also when i was playing here withdraws were really fast in my opinion, thats odd that you got such problem well, trying to withdraw 2.1btc after depositing around 2 yesterday, so i guess i depleted the hot wallet again, but otherwise it seems they are dealing with it. Dang yolo, I think you might want to move your action to a site with a higher bankroll. I'm getting pretty convinced that either your or sawdice is going to bust the other one soon. Good luck! |

Im not here for discussion or to hear about your cocksucking research
GTFO and go and bring the fucking kingpin of alts himself out here to speak to me
I have had enough of this bullshitting around and trying to watch my words
How many times do you fags want me to say it?
This group is HIJACKING the supply of coins from under the developers
Or are you too fucking stupid to understand? Come on bro, how do you expect anyone to sympathize with you "poor old devs" when this is how you talk to everyone? I've never seen ryan or anyone in his group frothing at the mouth like this Goodness me you cant talk to people like this and then expect to receive sympathy I have a very bad taste in my mouth after reading your posts This is the thing most developers dont look at traders as human beings. Just look at all that bs the guy is spewing, then he will want us to go buy his coins? If their coins are being hijacked then so be it, maybe they will finally realize that they can no longer just walk all over us traders So what now this has turned into traders vs devs? You fucking bastards dont want to go there with me I promise you will not like the results This is the real world you cant expect everyone to be nice to you, so fuck off You little idiots think you're fucking mercenaries? I dare you to trade by yourself. I bet these big profits that you cunts are boasting about will very quickly dissapear You guys aren't shit on your lonesome So you have to band together and form shitty little traders union terrorist groups So, FYI, in the "real world", flipouts like this don't gain you any credibility, in fact, they detract from it. You seem have missed my post above about the conditions of "the real world". Yo man, I think you won't want to hear this but in a way there are doing your altcoin market a real service. The real world of a functioning crypto is harsh: to be successful, you have to be able to weather not only pump-n-dump schemes but also hash-rate attacks, network forks, good-bad press, and more. You can think of these professional pump-n-dumpers as professional stress-testers. When they can get together and pump-n-dump a coin this easily, isn't that a kind of proof that the coin isn't ready for prime-time? If you ask me, these pump-n-dumpers are bringing a dose of reality to the dreamers of the altcoin world. And, for what it's worth, if an altcoin can overcome this stuff then it surely has become more valuable than a fly-by-night idea by some guys who have dreams of getting rich off copying Satoshi's code and making some tweaks. Conversely, people need to realize that these guys are doing this and not just keep dropping money into coins that were dreamed up last night in the hope that they will get rich quick. Pump-n-dump schemers are a reality, the way to beat them is to not put your money into an overvalued asset.
I don't mean to be offensive, but I hope you can understand my point.
Then again, maybe this thread isn't about reasoned discussion, but just a place for you to go nuts. If that's the case, enjoy! I guess I won't be replying anymore. Good luck! |

I have said it a million times
Ryans group are not here to contribute any thing at all to crypto
This group is here to pull of much btc from every single coin that they possibly can
They dont give a shit about how much hard work we developers put into our coins so they do everything in their power to hijack what is not their own
They have completely hijacked one of my coins, and I know many developers who have had the same thing happen to them
I have said since last year September 2014 to put and end to all pump groups
I said it all along that eventually one group will start abusing their power
Ryan is a cyborg who doesn't give a crap about people like us
and every person in his group are exactly the same
We need to root these little fuckers out one by one because they are not playing fair
As long as they are here, no one has any hopes of making money
They have tools and bots that all they have to do is log into an exchange and money starts rolling in for them
Lets get them out
