0%. I deposit some coins when I want to trade, do the trades and immediately withdraw them, so my coins are only there when i need them to be there.

Any impacts on the end user with this change? Does it affect altcoin Electrum spinoffs? And out of curiousity, why did you change license?


Sound interesting, I'll be sure to test this

That was indeed funny But I'm curious as to which pool is mining Classic blocks... Looks like Classic is having way more support than XT.

Domain seems to be still controlled by etotheipi... I wouldn't trust it though.

Copay seems to support BIP32, so you can probably restore your Electrum seed there. Not sure if it allows for seed restore on a Windows device, tho...

If it does it would be a great addition to the spreadsheet on this thread

Bitcoin Core roadmap is here. Bitcoin Classic roadmap is here. Inform yourself and choose what you think it suits best for Bitcoin.

Quite a few reviews on the forums and other sites.

No, if they're delivering what they say they are, they're not simply copy+pasting. As things stand right now, I believe Core will succeed, and not Classic (at least in short-medium term), but none of us holds the truth, so what I'm saying might be wrong in a few months/years. As I said, we'll see what happens So far we only know XT failed in implementing some of its changes

This is what we need: alternatives. Discussion. Finally these guys have something to say about what they intend to deliver. They're not aiming low, that for sure... And that can be either good or bad. We'll see about that in the future.

Their roadmap seems interesting, but I don't think it is complete... Hope they start talking more about it in the next few days. The roadmap is also late. It's coming after a pretty solid roadmap from the Bitcoin Core team... But better late than never

First it was XT breaking through, now Classic. Let's see where this goes. I'm definitely curious.

We can only judge on their voting system efficiency if we know how does it work. Didn't find answers neither on twitter, neither on their page. Is it something miners activate on their personal logins in the pool's page?

If that's so, then maybe we found an overkill node How much RAM is bitcoind using?

Where are tips going, exactly? To the address that received the last block reward mined by a Classic client?

I don't think it draws attention to your transactions, especially because it's supposed to do the opposite... It's supposed to give you fresh coins in order to further enhance your privacy. It's also not designed or especially made for criminals, they just find it useful because of obvious reasons.

For the normal person it's a good tool to make your spending more private if you accidentally end up making your addresses known. Too bad many of these services turn out to be ran by scammers...

As for if they're worth using or not... Not really for me, but it has it's advantages.

We probably can, but do you think that it's a priority right now? Especially when you can already rename the file and point your client there...

What now? They don't seem to be running a modified client. I guess they're still on Core...

What kind of system are they employing in order to ask the miners for their opinion? Different stratums like one pool did earlier? Maybe they're just polling their users...

Having issues with my 0.12 node It shut itself down during the night, just booted it up now and it says the block database is corrupted... It's checking blocks now, let's see how this goes. Wierd that this happened after updating and not right away, still trying to figure out what's happening.

Is Vern nowhere to be found? He is a pretty widely known person that has had many public appearances throughout the years, probably many know how to reach him and how to reach Cryptsy without requiring much investigation.

The question is also if someone's after the guy that hacked Satoshi's email, the one that threatened Roger Ver and the guy who used to do heavy DDOS on Bitcoin sites...

As for bounty hunters on darknet, I don't know if there are any, but I imagine there are.

Nice article. Similar has been discussed previously on the forums... Government and banks want to issue their own cryptocurrency and then control pretty much everything you make...

This sentence really made me think:


I know "dump" here is in the sense of leave cash behind, but maybe a government's cryptocurrency may have a hidden premine for them to spend however they please

This thread is really old. There are more recent threads on the topic.

You can look into Electrum or Armory as a way to aid your offline transaction needs.
