401  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory - Discussion Thread on: August 26, 2014, 08:01:09 AM
Was wondering if I can still please get an answer on this, Ty.

Is there a way to ad a watch only wallet that I got from the blokchain.info site ?

AFAIK, only wallets created / backed up by armory can be added.

For now, yes.
You can only import an Armory wallet (doh!) or individual private keys.
Armorys wallet formate is incompatible to the others.
Well, in fact all others are incompatible, as Armory was the first one with HD wallets.
The new wallet formate is in the works, and will use "compatible" BIP0032 too.

402  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Bitmessage - P2P Messaging system based partially on Bitcoin on: August 26, 2014, 07:58:50 AM
all I get is "sending public key request waiting for reply"
I have sent to a few diffrent callback addresses and the light is yellow.

Perhaps you could try sending me a message? My address is BM-2D96qyC3rF72YaxktSYco3eWdNJPXbuN6U

What does it show on the "Network Status" tab of the Bitmessage client? How many connections and processed messages are there?

hmm it seems to work when I sent it to you, did you get it?

 All the other messages say "waiting for encryption key. will request it again soon."

I am pretty sure this simply means the receiver is offline. Your client will resend daily until the receiver confirms it received your message.
In fact it's a handshake, first the public keys need to be exchanged, and then the message itself is sent.

Well, I like both the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and AC-AF, and enjoy how diverse all our charities are.

Still, the initial plan of BTC100 was to give an incentive to charities which do not accept Bitcoin yet. As a way to enlarge the number of charities, and not as a way to reward a charity after they already came to the good conclusion to accept Bitcoin donations.
Some charities were already declined because of this, although those were great charities and support-worthy.

At the very least, we have to talk about this before those two (and future) charities receive a BTC100 donation. This isn't Brunos or Rassahs decision neither, as the original donators to the fund donated with those rules in mind.

Or, maybe, let's do a different project:
Collect all Bitcoin-accepting charities on a website. Each with its own Bitcoin address. Also, the website has one address, where all funds donated to will be spread amongst the charities (random, and/or evenly and/or "more to those who received the least yet"). As the blockchain proves where every donation ended at, there shouldn't be a trust issue here. It would make for a(nother) nice showcase too.
And, at the very least, it would make a nice compact list of all charities.

Oh, and then there is Cryptocharity, with its first project in Uganda. The website cryptocharity.org is offline atm, I informed them and it should be online soon. Maybe you can benefit from each other in some way?

Did the calculation of the liquidation price change? From yesterday to today, it went up by 50$ unexpectedly.

Please provide us the exact formula how this is calculated.

Ente

I know it's sunday and all, but this is -for me- a very urgent question!

Can anyone else confirm that the liquidation price changed abruptly some days ago?

They changed the initial margin to 30% (3.33:1), requiring 15% maintenance margin.  Before, the max was 40% (2.5:1), requiring 13% maintenance.  

They also removed selectable initial margin levels since "most users set it to the max anyway", so if you were at 1:1, 2:1, etc, you can't select those anymore.  

I'm not sure why they would do that.  I thought some may still want 1:1 etc, for the reason you describe: it will lower their maintenance margin & liquidation price (for long).
https://www.bitfinex.com/pages/announcements

So I would calculate it with:

{ [ ( position.size.btc * buyprice.usd ) + swapcosts.usd ] * 1.15 } / ( position.size.btc + collateral.btc)

multi-screen on skype requires premium membership which not-everyone has
we would limit our market


better use BitParty ^ and make it on our own  Cool
Only one member needs to have premium afaik.
The real problem is privacy-related.
Skype had many privacy issues since it was acquired by Micro$soft

I don't like skype.
Let's use an open alternative.
Anyone who knows what's state of the art?

Actually no, it's impossible that they removed the bitcoins as I have 2FA.  They were able to log in a single time and that's it.  The coins are there and localbitcoins are doing on purpose to ignore me as they know my account was hacked so they can keep the bitcoins to themselves.  I have also done quite a bit of volume with them but they couldn't care less as they are thieves.

How can they not help if myaccount was hacked?  They just need to reset the password and put back the email that was originally on the account.  It's not rocket science.

You are borderline to trolling with your language.
Have you considered that the localbitcoins-team didn't even read your mail yet?

How about a "I forgot my password" reset straight to your mail?
(I don't know if one can change the email address, with/without 2FA)

Also, as Burt wrote, it doesn't work that way to watch bitcoins sitting on an address on the blockchain once they enter a shared wallet, like on an exchange.

And finally, even if you lost a 4 digit Bitcoin amount and it would have been "localbitcoins" who stole it from you, it wouldn't make sense for them to do this, as they (and any other popular lucrative Bitcoin service) make more money when running the business as honest and well as they can.

I set up a server with 24/7 running bitcoind. This one shall be the only one with "outside connections". My local bitcoind on my workstation, with Armory too, connects only to that server (via "connect="). My local bitcoind connects fine. Armory insists it is offline, though.
What's going on here? The only thing I change is activating/deactivating "connect=".
Does bitcoind need to have at least x connections to be considered "online"?

Maybe you have to add 127.0.0.1 to the allowed IPs in the connect line? Is the rpcuser and rpcpassword still there?

..added localhost to "connect" and "addnode". Still offline.
Yes, rpcuser and rpcpassword are unchanged.

Ente

Ah, forgot one thing, you could try "listen=1". According to https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Bitcoin.conf_Configuration_File this is disabled, if connect is set.

Bang, spot on!
Now it works, with "connect" and "listen".
Thank you a ton, flipper!

I've been seeing some connection to client lost messages, what generally causes this ?

It could be core maxing out it's p2p connections
I'm still green under the collar with Armory, so, huh ?

Default, bitcoin-core uses 8 connections to connect to other Bitcoin-nodes.
So I would say those messages are harmless (until someone else chimes in here).

all i see are flash-swaps. i there even a market for fixed-rate-swaps at bitfinex??

Most definitely.
Despite the large flash rate offers, noone really touches them:

Putting up a flash offer now also will put you to the end of the line, the whole current 3M flash offers would first have to be taken before yours will be taken..

What sort of return can you expect if you lend your coins to margin traders on Bitfinex? I heard Huobi's BitVC offers 0.2-0.3% per day so just trying to find the best option out there.

Also, can you chose whether you want to lend in fiat or btc?

Thanks!


You can see the (ever-changing) rates here:
https://www.bitfinex.com/pages/stats
The FRR, flash-return-rate is what you receive when your loan is taken at variable rate, else you can set up a specific rate.

You can, and have to, choose if you lend out BTC or LTC or USD.

Was denkt ihr:
Wie lang müsste der Preis auf Talfahrt gehen, damit das Bitcoin Netzwerk zusammen bricht?

Die Miner-verkäufe würden schnell wegbrechen (von den Vorausbezahlungen abgesehen).
Die Hashingpower würde sehr lange weit oben bleiben, weil zum einen der Strompreis einen recht kleinen Anteil hat (vgl mit Hardwarekaufpreis), und natürlich weil viele nicht davon ausgehen würden, dass Bitcoin jetzt tot wäre.
