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 |

I sent the 5,000,000, but at the time of this writing there are no confirmations.
Received, I even mined the block containing it  Well at least he's a step up from paypal  Sure! He became a bitcoiner thanks to (because of?) me If hosting that accepts devcoins happens along before (an exchange that exchanges devcoins for bitcoins plus hosting that accepts bitcoins) or (an exchangebt that exchanges devcoins for fiat plus hosting that accepts fiat) then maybe devcoins could go toward hosting. I wonder how many devcoins we can sell for how many bitcoins and how many bitcoins your friend would need to upgrade the hosting?
I believe he hosts it on his mining rig. I'll ask him to be sure though Speaking of that I think I can make a little exchange, anybody already planed to take care of this or I can give it a try? Very nice post jackjack, colours even, cool. So it seems that if you agree it will be 200,000 DVC I'll be sending you...
It's perfect, thanks |

I'm currently mining about 150 Bitcoins per day on my Core i7-920. It costs me approx $1 per day in electricity to leave my machine on and Bitcoins trade at $.005 each. So I'm getting about $.75 worth of Bitcoins per day for a $.25 per day loss. Screw this. It's not even worth it I'm out.
Peace,
Early adopter

some more issues, im running windows 7 x64 if that matters @echo off
pywallet.py --web
pause Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\****\Desktop\pywallet\pywallet.py", line 22, in <module>
from twisted.internet import reactor
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\twisted\internet\reactor.py", line 37, in

7, in <module>
from zope.interface import implements
ImportError: No module named zope.interface
Press any key to continue . . .
i had a derp, on the page is says required, how do i put it in. Well I don't know actually... The download page shows "Zope.Interface (required)" just under the Twisted package itself, did you install it? If that works it's unbelievable it isn't automatically included in the Twisted package... |

The question is 'What Bitcoin didn't killed?'
|
|
|

should probably slap that in the wiki or readme or somthing.
I wrote it in the pywallet thread but you're right I'm adding that right now |

It's no wonder Bitcoin is failing so bad. It's impossible to keep shit safe.

i cant get the pywallet to run @echo off
pywallet.py --datadir="C:\Users\****\Desktop\pywallet\wallet" --web
pause Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\****\Desktop\pywallet\pywallet.py", line 22, in <module>
from twisted.internet import reactor
ImportError: No module named twisted.internet
Press any key to continue . . . also i am using 2.7.2 i think Pywallet needs the twisted python package to work: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/Also you don't need to use the datadir flag, everything will be asked in the web interface |

I was talking about the block explorer bounty. Is it still ok for that? Now the testing feedbacks, yes both are working, on a 32bit Ubuntu Lucid: Devcoind:
mkdir devcoin && cd devcoin Downloaded devcoin-02-Aug-2011.tgz in devcoin tar zxfv devcoin-0* cd devcoin cd src make -f makefile.unix bitcoind I had the wxwidgets working for a previous bitcoin compiling so I also did: make -f makefile.unix ./bitcoind Devcoin-qt:
apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev mkdir devcoin-qt && cd devcoin-qt Downloaded devcoin-qt-02-Aug-2011.tgz in devcoin-qt tar zxfv devcoin-qt* cd devcoin-qt qmake make Both devcoin started downloading blocks when launched, and had 1 connection immediately Pywallet:Backup your wallets... Download pywalletRun ./pywallet.py --web Open http://localhost:8989Below 'Dump your wallet', type the filename and directory of your bitcoin wallet (autofilled with bitcoin default), and click on the dump button Ctrl-F to find that: (assuming the key to import is 1M1Bz*) {
"addr": "1M1BzQBpb8sbCuNzBTaae9PBdvjLthVrbR",
"hexsec": "abd5678903xxxxxxx",
"reserve": 1,
"sec": "5xxxxx"
}, Below 'Import a key': - type filename and directory of your devcoin wallet
- type the "sec" entry seen in the dump, beginning with a 5
- type the label of your key: 'donations' or whatever
- leave 'Reserve' UNchecked
- leave 0 for Version
- leave Base58 for Format
- click the import button
This should returns: Address: 1M1BzQBpb8sbCuNzBTaae9PBdvjLthVrbR
Privkey: 5xxxxx
Hexkey: abd5678903xxxxxxx
Key imported in /path/to/devcoin/wallet/walletfilename If not (unlikely, it works here), let me know |

How mature is pywallet? how likely is it that it just looses coins. or should you only import the keys for immediate spending.
It was created about one month ago It never broke any wallet afaik, but backups are of course recommended |

Ah I've missed that, although I do use the excellent pywallet script for wallet manipulation I'm glad it's useful |

This works great! I can finally import private keys in Windows Thanks for confirming it works in Windows! Doesn't work in the slightest. localhost:bin $ python3.2 ./pywallet.py
File "pywallet.py", line 54
_p = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEFFFFFC2FL
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
hmmm.... I think this only works with python 2. Yes, it works in Python 2.x. Python 3 was untested, until now, thanks for the feedback |

Sending private keys via browsers? They are the most critical part of bitcoin it's just crazy
MITM attack, browser history, sniffers if not https, etc........
Just use pywallet, it's infinitely safer and its web interface makes it really simple to import a key
Pywallet is not simple for the average joe, as you know. Arguably, the entire Bitcoin client is hardly simple for the average joe. Paper wallets and the ability to redeem them on websites - AT THE TIME OF SPENDING - puts secure Bitcoins in the hands of average Joes and eliminates virtually all of the risk associated with hacking and online wallets.  What can be simpler? My guide clearly states what to do: "run './pywallet.py --web' then open ' http://localhost:8989' in your brower" Then, wallet directory, wallet filename, version and format are autofilled, average joe just has to fill the key and clicks the button A private key is not much different from a Mt.Gox Redeemable Code, it's just that it holds real bitcoins that no one can steal. The holder of the private key is the holder of the coins, not Mt.Gox or anybody else.
When a private key is entered via browser into a website, it becomes instantly used and invalidated. The correct action for a website that accepts a private key as a deposit method would be to simply send the entire balance to a different address under its control (possibly using a completely separate instance of bitcoind just for this purpose), and wait for confirmations just like any other external inbound transaction. So even if a private key could be found in "browser history", it wouldn't matter much. It would have no money on it.
Absolutely, but in that case the key must be deleted from the wallet to avoid sending funds to it again MITM attack, browser history, sniffers are all moot for websites that properly implement https. I am unaware of anybody with plans (or the lack of common sense) to implement a web-based private key redemption utility without offering https.
Even with https, the browser history still contains the key. Maybe I wasn't clear though, I don't talk about navigation history, but form history Moreover, average joe doesn't know and doesn't care what is https |

Backup your .bitcoin folder, delete it, and mount your truecrypt drive in .bitcoin
Then put all the files of your .bitcoin backup in the truecrypt drive
Or use -datadir bitcoin flag

This is nothing, I have a transaction from fucking June 25th that's still "0/unconfirmed". The address I sent it to is a correct address of somebody I know. Seriously, WTF?
Maybe you should look at the link in my sig |
