I'm currently trying to read tx's from a wallet I know the key is the hash of the tx but I can't find the format of the value associated (if I'm not clear: i.e. how to read it to retrieve the data) If someone of you know that, please share

type 2 people won't install the standard bitcoin client on their desktop... period. Much less SSH to that client from a remote machine.
There are plenty of people who aren't very technically smart but don't have a problem installing and running software. Plenty of non-technical people are perfectly capable of downloading an app on their phone. And that is far superior to trusting a bitcoin bank. Bitcoin needs online wallets not only for people who couldn't install a client but for accelerate and make possible RL transactions. NFC

Hi there I learnt not long ago that an offline transactions patch was available for about 3 weeks whereas I looked for it really hard... So here's my question, is there a wiki page or forum thread or anything where all Bitcoin useful tools/patchs/forks are written with what they do? If not, isn't that a good idea?

bawww

Not sure but I believe this happens when the coins used in the transaction were received from tiny transactions e.g. if they come from many 0.01 or 0.02 payments from a pool
|
|
|
Why $1 in that case, why not $0.01? Or even 0 Maybe -2!!
|
|
|
Lol you really think bitcoin will drop to $1? Ah Ah!

Yay! I'd like to be admiral for France I have some rocket engines if you want I also have a launchpad in my bedroom

I don't see the 100% option

1) Should a new address be generated by a receipt in any scenario? I believe so but not sure 2) Should it be possible to have coins received in a wallet to an address that isn't shown in the address book (specifically when the address in question definitely had BTC sent from the outside as opposed to BTC left over from a sending transaction) Yes absolutely, there are hidden keys in wallets, 100 by default If you want to them all, use pywallet (sig)

Re: I just got hacked - any help is welcome! (25,000 BTC stolen) $5 flash drive w/ multiple wallets in non-default locations Windows 7, third party browser like Opera, and AV Even more serious? Bitlocker or Truecrypt Not loosing 25,000 BTC priceless Makes a lot more sense than tracking everyone's BTC transactions.
Closed-source browser? Interesting choice

Ok I had to reply to one of the threads, but this deserves it's own topic, for good reason. Everyone is concerned about security... and they are blaming e-wallets... even though a month ago one of the forum users had 25,000 bitcoins vanish from his client.... there were several posts referencing a "bitcoin gobbler" that was stealing bitcoins from people's desktops as it appears to infect the standard client. Bitomat, how many people scammed? Mybitcoin, how many people scammed? When an individual asked "so how do I access my bitcoins from another location" the reply was "SSH into your machine... then do X and do Y and do Z" of course.. because grandma knows how to SSH.
You really think grandma knows how to use bitcoins currently? You, flexcoin, can be honest that's not the point The fact is people MUST think before use an ewallet: who is he runner, where is he, how can I contact him, etc When stupid naive people put their money in ewallets and lost it, what is guilty for everybody outside this forum? Bitcoin! It's like MtGox hack: "BITCOIN HAZ BEEN BROKEN!" That's why scammed people are attacked: because of them, people see Bitcoin as insecure whereas there's nothing to do with it So, either grandma asks her grandchildren, or she just doesn't complain if something bad happens...

Yes, please, write a working toolset for this! This really has to find its way into the official client soon!
i'm almost certain someone has written a working implementation, although it's not in the official client yet. (i wish i could remember who/where i read about it though). Never heard about that before, and can't find anything If you remember, please post

Keep your wallet with you, in a truecrypted usb key How do you spend from it? If you don't have a laptop, there are cheap ones I believe (like eeepc or so maybe?) It's better to buy a laptop than lose all your coins online Bitcoin on smartphone, see the dev subforum Now this would be the holy grail, although from what I've been reading so far, there are going to be major issues getting it to work properly. Last I checked, some folks had lost coins on the actual Android-phone wallet clients that are in use; I'll just let the bugs get worked out for now. Have you tried any of the bitcoin smartphone apps that don't require a home system setup for remote access? No, they are all for Android, I don't have one

His How do you spend bitcoins away from home?
ssh into my machine and spend the coins Yep. Now, if someone can't or doesn't want to do that, what options do they have? So you want to give your bitcoins to anonymous guys in the cloud? Then proceed, but don't complain Believe me, I haven't (and when the time comes, won't) complain. But then I'm not storing the bulk of my stash online either. Still, that wasn't exactly a responsive answer to the question: if ssh to the home computer is out of the question, what other options are available? There are not many, yet: Bitcoin on smartphone, see the dev subforum Php frontend for bitcoind (three of them) Keep your wallet with you, in a truecrypted usb key Find another solution
