Though ultimately it is best to look through the code. Unfortunately the satoshi client is quite difficult to follow. Getting a basic understanding before you do that is a good idea I think.

I started with Joric's pywallet, it's a wonderful piece of software to understand how some things work
2262  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Buying bitcoins with Second Life SLL on: August 22, 2013, 06:16:29 PM
I made an SL object that allows one to exchange SLL for bitcoins, using the address he provided
It is wonderfully working right now on testnet

I previously asked if there were many Second Life players here and the answer seems to be none
Anyway, I'm looking for testers on mainnet so if by any chance you'd like to test then post here
If something goes bad I'd of course send SLL back

If you're not confortable trying with bitcoins you can test the current testnet implementation, and I'll send your SLL back



virwox has an online exchange doing this.  SLL/Linden-->BTC as well as other virtual game currencies <--> BTC

The market depth only ends up being around 25BTC

There isn't a lot of demand.  But there appears to be some level of demand.

I believe Virwox requires having accounts, going to their site or things like this. Whereas my object only requires right-click -> pay the object -> put your address in the dialog box and the transaction is broadcasted right away.

Yes the market depth is low whereas Virwox has 2 years... Not sure it will ever go up

Can somebody clarify for me the name:  Nasakioto?  Someone said it meant the same thing as Satoshi's name but I don't get it.  TIA.


Both names use the same letters - just rearrange them Smiley

Ok, that what that guy was saying but I'm looking at the 2 names and that's not true.  It's not exact - there are letters missing in Nasakioto - so he simply used some of the letters from Satoshi's name to recreate a new name.  Good enough for the desired effect.

SATOSHI NAKAMOTO
THOMAS NASAKIOTO

FOR FUCK SAKE!!
DO YOU WANT COLORS TOO?

But I will say, ixCoin has everything a banker would look for when wanting to duplicate what I think will be an ultra successful Bitcoin ETF, right down to the cool Japanese name itself.

SATOSHI NAKAMOTO
THOMAS NASAKIOTO


So it's just similar.  Someone said Nasakioto was the same exact name as Satoshi only spelled differently or something like that.  I realize Thomas has a normal, very American last name but it was clever to choose a Japanese name.  Clever indeed.

Suggestions to increase your pythonicness

0. Use this AS MUCH AS YOU CAN
Also reachable with Google: https://google.com/search?q=python+doc+types, https://google.com/search?q=python+doc+dictionary, https://google.com/search?q=python+doc+string

1. You can change
Code:
    choice = float (raw_input("Enter Choice: "))
    if choice == 1:
        usd2btc()
    if choice == 2:
        btc2usd()
to
Code:
    fcts={1:usd2btc, 2:btc2usd}
    choice = None   #Unlikely you would ever have None as a key in a dictionary
    while choice not in fcts.keys():
        choice = int (raw_input("Enter Choice: "))
    fcts[choice]()


2. No ';' needed, and here your returns are not necessary
Code:
def btc2usd():
    ...
    print "Youre new asking price should be %s" % buy
    return main();
would become
Code:
def btc2usd():
    ...
    print "Youre new asking price should be %s" % buy
    main()


3. A better way to do the loop:
Code:
def btc2usd():
    ...
    print "Youre new asking price should be %s" % buy
    #No main() at the end, but...

while True:    #This, instead of just main()
    main()



Ask if anything is unclear
BTW, buy = ((price * afee) - price) * -1 is buy=price*(1-afee)
2269  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ixcoin TODO on: August 21, 2013, 10:40:41 PM
You paid 30 BTC for 15K ixCoin and 15K i0Coin (in 2011)?
I might be wrong, because I can't really remember. I'll PM doublec and see if he can get any records just for old time sake Smiley

What do you mean the exchange rate for ixCoin won't get much higher?  Higher than the half a penny it's at now or the exchange rate you originally paid for it?  If so then why would you bother holding your ixCoins?


Much higher than it is now. I hold them for the same reason as you - I truly hope they increase in value, but I'm mostly skeptical this will happen.

I don't think people will value a coin that is owned by a few people that bought shitload of it just to dump them when it gains value

2271  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't be a hypocrite on: August 21, 2013, 09:14:21 PM


And perhaps consider not buying hypocrite coins either.


What am I talking about?


Well, I have read lots of slander going on, on these forums about premined coins,
but the people who are slandering the 'premined' coins also support and buy and sell bitcoins.

Bitcoins are a premine.

Therefore anyone who buys and sells and supports bitcoins, and goes around slandering coins with premine, is a hypocrite.

And I want you to consider not buying hypocrite coins then ok.


Good day.

First, Bitcoin was not premined. The only block that was mined before release was the genesis block, and those coins are unspendable. Just because there wasn't a million profit chasers with GPU farms ready to jump on it doesn't mean it was premined.

Just to let you guys know what an idiot the OP is, you should know he posted a Bitcoin mainnet address on a testnet giveaway. I know this because those are the only people in my ignore list.

OP is indeed a pretty stupid person. Check his posts.

I am still offering 200BTC for any proof of aliens. And that is the tip of the iceburg, "the amazing Randy" also has 1 million dollars ready to give away. Funny how the aliens only reveal themselves to weirdos who can't seem to muster a shred of evidence. Just bring me a tool made from an unknown alloy or a single sample of a non-DNA based lifeform. Because it would be the greatest discovery in all of science, I would gladly pay.

It's probable alien life exists.
It's not probable they have visited earth.

Can I play too?

I have proofs that Satoshi premined 5 millions of BTC
Some even say he premined 10.4 millions but they don't have proofs

As I told you I will put positive tags once the script reaches enough users

I was reading again about the Bitcoin history but this time followed several links, some of those leading to this thread.

Nothing original to say, everything has already been said.
Just thanks for sharing your story and thanks for your contributions to crypto.
Keep enjoying life.

déjà c'est pour la majorité puisque tout le monde a envi de se chauffer, au moindre coût si possible, on est pas tous riches...

ensuite si tu aurait regardé mes liens tu t’apercevrais que l’argument de la pollution des nappes n'est pas valable car c'est un risque inhérent a tout forages et qui est très bien contrôler (quelques accident arrivent parfois, je ne sais pas si tu as déjà travailler en industrie mais tout est une aventure...)

ensuite, dans l'éventuel cas ou cette assertion serait vraie, je te ferais remarquer que l'on sait dépolluer l'eau, ha non attend !
je te ferais d'abord remarquer que les richesses du sous sol en France appartiennent a l'état et que tirer de l'eau de la nappe phréatique sans autorisation est illégale...
ensuite même aujourd'hui sans forage il est fortement déconseiller de la consommer, elle n'est bonne qu'a remplir les piscine est doit etre sérieusement chlorée.
As-tu regardé Gasland?

Can the first 100 people to install get the 'BT++ Founder' tag? Or something like that...  Smiley 
I would love a custom tag saying "Faucet Owner" or something like that :O
Oh no, what have I done?? Tag beggers are coming! Wink

Just joking, though I made this system for negative tags, not positive ones. I mainly want to avoid newbies falling for known/potential scams for now.
IMO positive tags are not necessary until there is a decent amount of users.
