thanks all i have been struggling with an issue..as a friend was helping me partition a hard drive on my comp he deleted my entire ubuntu operating system which held my qt wallet..i never backed up my wallet.dat equivalent on linux and i always thought wallet passphrase was == priv key...in an attempt to recover my coins i tried importing them to blockchain.infos wallet however i noticed that when i input "wallet passphrase" in the import priv key option it kept saying unknown formatt ...so with the recent light shed on the diff between priv key and wallet passphrase..i can come to a conclusion that my bitcoin are lost forever?  thank you all again in advance for your input and help.. You could try to recover your private keys from the formatted disk. As long as the wallet.dat has not been written over there's a chance for it to work. You just need a recovery tool, and hope for the best. There's a high risk that it doesn't work though. But it could be worth a shot if you had much money in it. |

hey thank you all for clearing that up...however i thought wallet passphrase == priv key??!? no? No, the private keys contains the proof your bitcoin is yours, and on your address. So wallet passphrase and private keys are not the same thing at all. The password is just the key to unlock your wallet. |

The "strict" rules are not about moral and stuff. They only say you have to wait 360 seconds between each post. Not that "strict" imo. Newbies can also post NSFW stuff you know!  And if you don't wanna see it, don't click on anything that says "NSFW"!  |

Wait, do you want to create a new address? Then you don't have to post the private keys or something like that you know!
But shouldn't there be an option like "Add" or "Create new address" in the "Receive" tab?

Hotmail is mainly used by homosexuals as per statistics
I am using outlook its great
IMO outlook sucks. When you log in it can take minutes before you can even open the mails, or well, do anything at all. I'm not a fan of using google stuff either, but at least Gmail doesn't take minutes to work. BTW, as hilariousandco said, the security problem was probably on your end, not on Microsofts. |

Why would you want to live in a country created by someone who titles himself the emperor? A country with a police force, a country with an army, a country with greed and a closed mindedness to concepts of unity and love?
Sounds just like today's society.
Sounds like you want to join a collective or something! Why don't you do that? |

Not in this year.
Why do you think that? A year ago 1000$ was completely unthinkable, still it happened in November! You can never know in the world of bitcoins!  |

I dont think you can burn a wallet on DVD, its why bitcoin qt exist right.
No, bitcoin core is the client. The private keys (the money) is stored in the wallet. The wallet you can back-up wherever you want, even on a DVD. |

I don't think we will ever break 4 digits unless these things happen:
1. A go-to person if something happens. Right now, it seems bitcoins best tech support is reddit and google. People, especially the more non-technical people, if they have a problem they want to talk to a person. I know this defeats the purpose of decentralization but face it, it needs to happen.
2. Higher difficulty. At first you guys are thinking what? I know, let me explain. If there is a higher difficulty, there is less chance that a 51% attack can occur, and thus double spending, forks, etc. If we can get a higher difficulty, to make the chances of a 51% attack basically 0, more merchants can adopt zero confirm transactions, or at the very most 1. 6 will seem like set in stone basically.
3. Goverment/legal support. Bitcoins, if ever wants to become a valid payment method, needs to comply with governments. If it wants to be international, that's going to take some work. Considering how long it takes for an international effort to happen, I seriously doubt that Bitcoin will be a legal globally accepted way to pay. if we can get the majority, say the US, China (big one right here), and most of Europe we should be okay.
4. MORE ATMS - ATMS > Adoption Rate > Liquidty > Market Stabiliation > Etc....
That's all I got from the top of my head if your looking for a numerical estimate? I'd say like 7-15 years.
Don't worry mate, we're still in beta! I think we'll get to see prices waaaaaay higher eventually! |

this wallet will still need to sync, except that since the last synchronization immediately used your money
No, the client needs syncing. The wallet contains the private keys and does not need syncing. |

Does bitcoin island comes with bitcoin prison and bitcoin army?
Yes.There will be a police force, to enforce the law and order, as well as an army to protect you from the outside invasion. But I want to assure you that the Police force will be 100% professional, and well mannered.  Couldn't the islanders themselves be the guards? Would save some money to! |
