Zooey asked me to look at this. I'm no security expert, so who knows if I'm missing something, but... I don't see any evidence of malware here or in the reports, just a lot of technical information that tells nothing about the nature of the webpage/software. Since I could be wrong, I did not personally open the "malicious" links in question, just in case, so there may be something obvious there I didn't see too. Also, even if an antivirus vendor told me there was something malicious (which again, I don't see), I would take it with a grain of salt. One thing anyone involved with Bitcoin mining should know, is that most antivirus software is itself malicious, labelling even legit mining software as viruses and malware when they are not. Finally, I hate spam as much as the next person. Please don't support spammers, whether their products/services are malicious or not. Edit: Ok, I clicked the "malicious" link, and it's just a redirect to an EXE download. Obviously it'd be stupid to run it. Edit: VirusTotal accuses this EXE of being a virus |

Mining proxy talks to Eloipool and Namecoind, nothing else.
so we have this configuration client miner <---> mining proxy <--> eloipool <----> bitcoind
|
| -------> namecoind ?
mining proxy command python merged-mining-proxy -w 8330 -p http://ssecreteloipool:222@127.0.0.1:9947/ -x http://namecoinrpc:manecoinrpcpass@localhost:9377/
eloipool config.py # Secret username allowed to use setworkaux
SecretUser = "ssecreteloipool"
# Addresses to listen on for JSON-RPC GBT/getwork server
JSONRPCAddresses = (
('', 9947),
)
namecoind config rpcuser=namecoinrpc
rpcpassword=manecoinrpcpass
rpcport=9377
and normal configuracjion connection to bitcoin why i cannot connect /point miner to 8330 port ? and still get this errors miner with eloipool works perfect but with merged mining configuracion still cannot connect minner to mining proxy ... what should i change in my configuration ? No. Miner talks to Eloipool. Eloipool talks to bitcoind and MMP independently. MMP talks to namecoind. |

To be fair, 0.8.2 will be the one silently dropping transactions that were valid to all clients before that. Transaction relaying just became more of an issue...
It's not blocking them (they're still valid), just declining to participate in them. This isn't the first version to opt out of relaying spam, either: it's been done since 0.3.19 or so. |

The only supported scenario is: client miner <--> eloipool <--> bitcoind
|-> mining proxy <--> namecoind so if client miner <--> eloipool <--> mining proxy <--> (bitcond + namecoind) is WRONG how to connect eloipool to bitcoind AND to mining proxy ? client miner <--> eloipool <--> (mining proxy + namecoind) <--> bitcoind ? i see that normally mining proxy "split" connection into two daemon (BTC, NMC) but how to do this in eloipool ?

Got a 7870(Pitcairn) for my desktop (Win 8 - 64 bit) while waiting for my old card to go in for warranty replacement. Not overclocking for now, because my desktop isn't great on ventilation.
Running 13.4 Catalyst and APP SDK 2.8
On my dedicate mining machine (Win 7 -32 bit) and with my previous desktop card (6770), I used BFGMiner with no issues.
Now, BFGMiner (3.0.2 win64) crashes out instantly unless I am using poclbm, which even though the console hasrate is high, it is giving me garbage performance on every pool I try it on (Eligius, BTCGuild, Deepbit). I assume this is due to poclbm and stratum issues.
If I use CGMiner, with any kernel, including poclbm, there are no issues including with stratum, other than poclbm tends to overstate its hashrate in the console.
Any ideas on what I can do to get BFGMiner to run? I would rather use the same client for all my machines.
Compile with debugging information: ./configure CFLAGS='-O0 -ggdb' && make # note the OH ZERO Then run it in gdb: gdb --args ./bfgminer -T -D <your options here> When it crashes, it will drop you to a gdb prompt; run: ... and pastebin the output. |

mining proxy need setworkaux so i think 1) will be ok ?
so why in first scenario i get errors on client miner ?
The only supported scenario is: client miner <--> eloipool <--> bitcoind
|-> mining proxy <--> namecoind you mean client miner <----> eloipool <-----> mining proxy <----> bitcoind | | ----> namecond so i must use patched bitcoind (with setworkaux function) ? or maybe client miner <----> eloipool <-----> mining proxy <----> eloipool <--- > bitcoind | | ----> namecond ?  No, I meant exactly what I said... |

Can someone with wiki permissions create a page "Press contacts"?
Anyone can create pages on the wiki... just need to go through the antispam stuff. Someone else is already working on a bitcoinpresscenter.org or such, though, so probably a good idea to see how that works out first? |

Hello, i am looking at making my own poll app based on GWT, but got confused at some pint and still can't figure it out. I've read BIP 22 and 23, but some real world example would be welcome. bitcoind returns: {
"version" : 2,
"height" : XXX,
"previousblockhash" : "X...X",
"noncerange" : "00000000ffffffff",
"sizelimit" : 1000000,
"sigoplimit" : 20000,
"target" : "X...X",
"bits" : "12345678",
"mintime" : XXX,
"curtime" : XXX,
"mutable" : [
"time",
"transactions",
"prevblock"
],
"transactions" : [
{
...
}
],
"coinbaseaux" : {
"flags" : "0123456789abcdef"
},
"coinbasevalue" : 2500000000,
}Is the first transaction listed the coinbase one (guess not) or i should create my own? If the later - how do i make it in order to contain the flags (and what do they mean)? If there is no "coinbasetxn" key, you need to make it. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification#tx |

Pool is down for me. Anyone else?
Not stop "Abandoning stale search to restart"
This seems like a bug in BFGMiner - are you using the latest version? |

I tried running from command line and it shows no errors. The window closes and windows says it errored and closed.
Is there any other way to capture any data as to what is happening? Run with the --debug --text-only options. If it's crashing, though, it's probably an OpenCL/driver issue. What opencl/driver combo do you recommend? I am running the latest from AMD on the 64 bit system Thanks Personally, I'd run Linux and put each GPU in its own KVM instance with the last driver/SDK before the card was replaced by the next series... |

It's not a proxy. Miners continue to talk to Eloipool.
idont understand your suggestion  maybe it should be 1) client minrer <---> mining proxy <--> eloipool <----> bitcoind | | -------> namecoind ? or 2) client miner <----> eloipool <-----> mining proxy <----> bitcoind | | ----> namecond mining proxy need setworkaux so i think 1) will be ok ? so why in first scenario i get errors on client miner ? The only supported scenario is: client miner <--> eloipool <--> bitcoind
|-> mining proxy <--> namecoind |

I am having an issue with 3.0.2 or any version for that matter on a new machine. The machine is a 64bit windows 7 and it is a new build whenever I run bfgminer on it. I enter the pool and credentials and then it errors and closes. I have even tried different pools that are working on other machines. I don't know where to start looking for what is causing this or what is missing. I have even ran the latest 2.8.10 64bit build.
Any help or suggestions??? Run it from a commandline to see what the error is... What mining device are you trying to use? 54Gh/s bASIC Bitcoin Mining Devices

Back on topic... http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012/12/most-dangerous-people/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&pid=1696"The Wiki Weapon project is not the work of a dispassionate techie seeking to push the outer limits of modern technology. Instead it is a blatant, undisguised attempt to radically alter our system of government." This is a perfect example of exactly why Bitcoin would be harmed by listing people like Matonis on anything portrayed as official. Bitcoin is the work of "passionate techies seeking to push the outer limits of modern technology", but having radicals as "spokespersons" would be an "undisguised attempt to radically alter our system of government." |

@Luke_jr I had to uninstall the ppa and compile it from source, but it works great. Now I just need my jalapeno to get here. I'm sending a donation your way. Thanks for the great work you've done!
What was the problem with the PPA? |

If you require a threat/gun to be obedient, that is your problem.
If you're obedient just because you like to be, that's your problem. I hear you're a Christian. You do know that when Jesus said "Render unto Caesar...", what he was actually saying was the nothing is Caesar's and we don't owe anything to the government. I say that only because some Christians get confused and think the suggestion was that Caesar should get taxes. Far from it. Your misinterpretation is crazy, and contrary to the infallible teaching magisterium of the Church: (bold mine) ✝*Then the Pharisees departing, consulted among themselves for to entrap him in his talk. ✝And they send to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art a true speaker, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man. for thou dost not respect the person of men. ✝Tell us therefore what is thy opinion, is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? ✝But JESUS knowing their naughtiness, said: What do you tempt me, Hypocrites? ✝Show me the tribute coin. And they offered him a penny. ✝And JESUS saith to them; Whose is this image and inscription? ✝They say to him: Caesar's. Then he saith to them, Render therefore the things that are Caesar's to *Caesar: and the things that are Gods, to God. 21. To Caesar.] Temporal duties and payments exacted by worldly Princes must be paid, so that God be not defrauded of his more sovereign duty. And therefore Princes have to take heed, how they exact: and other, how they give to Caesar, that is, to their Prince, the things that are due to God, that is, to his Ecclesiastical ministers. Whereupon St. Athanasius receiveth these goodly words out of an epistle of the ancient and famous confessor Hosius Cordubensis to Constantius the Arian Emperor: Cease I beseech thee, and remember that thou art mortal, fear the day of judgment, intermeddle not with Ecclesiastical matters, neither do thou command us in this kind, but rather learn them of us. To thee God hath committed the Empire, to us he hath committed the things that belong to the Church: and as he that with malicious eyes carpeth thine Empire, gainsaith the ordinance of God: so do thou also beware, lest in drawing unto thee Ecclesiastical matters, thou be made guilty of a great crime. Is is written, Give ye the things that are Caesars, to Caesar: and the things that are Gods, to God. Therefore neither is it lawful for us in earth to hold the Empire, neither hast thou (O Emperor) power over incense and sacred things. Athan. Ep. ad Solit. vita agentes. And St. Ambrose to Valentinian the emperor (who by the ill counsel of his mother Justina, an Arian, required of St. Ambrose to have one Church in Milan deputed to the Arian Heretics) saith: We pay that which is Caesars, to Caesar: and that which is Gods, to God. Tribute is Caesars, it is not denied: the Church is Gods, it may not verily be yielded to Caesar: because the Temple of God cannot be Caesars right; which no man can deny but it is spoken with the honor of the Emperor. For what is more honorable than that the Emperor be said to be the son of the Church? For a good Emperor is within the Church, not above the Church. Ambr. lib. 5. Epist. Orat. de Basil trad. 17. To God.] These men were very circumspect and wary to do all duties to Caesar, but of their duty to God they had no regard. So Heretics, to flatter temporal Princes, and by them to uphold their heresies, do not only inculcate mens duty to the Prince, dissembling that which is due to God: but also give to the Prince more than due, and take from God his right and duty. But Christ allowing Caesar his right, warneth them also of their duty toward God. And that is it which Catholics inculcate, Obey God, do as he commandeth, Serve him first, and then the Prince.

Update with pool: everything was breaking everywhere, so I rushed to get the new server working.
New server Postgres is screwed up, so I set it up logging shares to a textfile for now.
Payouts and stats are down as a result, but hopefully it won't take long to recover from this mess.
