See if all these people trying to say Bitcoin should work differently actually have a good point, and sit in the bleachers and watch them crash and burn?

Seems it automaticly choose a language based on the system OS, but it choose the wrong wrong, it's using Portugal's Portuguese and not Brazilian Portuguese ( "Ficheiro" instead of "Arquivo" for example) ; is there a way i can force it to use the original English ? (i prefer things in the original language when it's a language i understand; i've way seen too many bad translations, even in big movies in the cinema; if not even professionals paid to do translation work can do it right i hold very low expectations on translation jobs done by volunteer amateurs)

Hm, though how can you know when a transaction has been forgotten?
|
|

If you got a backup of the wallet older than when you did the transaction, i would think that would be safer than trying to hack the wallet file manually.
If i'm not mistaken, usually transactions that stay unverified for too long start getting more and more priority, till the point they have more priority than fresh transactions that are paying high transfer fees; please someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Hey
Just realised that I did somethng very stupid, I thought that the number 1MHiYYKmXJPLhbEq2oihAHaHHmwveSm8bU at the bottom of my account page was my address for payment and saved that as for the automatic payment.
I realise now that its not mine and I just sent them over 10BTC, is there any way that I can undo this?
Figure out who owns that address and see if they are nice about it? |

Since S/N aren't public, you can't google it or whatever to find if it's real, so all i have to do to profit is to find a free S/N generator...

I think it would be a good idea to include some help in the Help menu of the official client, perhaps the top 5 FAQs plus a link to the main page of the official wiki at the very least; what do you think?

That is not Pi in hexadecimal, right?

If I had 280k BTC, I would occasionally transfer it from one address of mine to another, just to freak everybody out. Maybe that's what this guy is doing.
Then, just for the fun of it, I'd make a thousand transfers, all around the same time, so the dots together form a large, scrolling penis on bitcoinmonitor.com.
Someone gotta make a program that carefully times an array of transfers in order to draw or write things on those graphs |

Nice gaussian forming there

Isn't that capability present in the protocol, just not implemented in the client?
|

Did i miss it or he really didn't explain what he wanted the 10 grand for?

This seems like it could be an interesting experiment, the idea is to run a network like Bitcoin, except that miners will have all the parameters (reward per block, new block frequency etc) easily tweakable, and the client would have the ability to read the proposed values each miner that has found a block has suggested, and mining programs would read the parameters in the N previous blocks (N can also be voted on) and use whatever parameter got more votes is used when validating blocks found since the last time the parameter changed; even things like which percentage of the total votes the most voted change needs to have in order to not be ignored (like, if the most voted value has been voted on by less than 25% of the votes casted then nothing change) would be voteable.
What do you think? Would it even be possible to get enough people participating?
ps:i don't got the skills to code this myself, i'm more of an ideas guy... <.<

It would be interesting to have a proggie that attempts to simulate the behavior of miners faster than realtime to, among other things, try to see how bad things could get if a large chunk of the processing power suddenly went away with the way the system is currently set (obviously comparing the simulated behavior with how things happened in the past would be a great way to get an idea how close the proggie is to reality)

If I'm not mistaken, a block with an invalid amount on coinbase transaction will be rejected by the network. IIRC, nodes use the address advertised in the coinbase transaction, but write in the amount of BTC reclaimed based on the network agreed upon standard. This is how you can't reclaim more than 50BTC per solved block right now. At block 210,000 only clients modified to still reward 50BTC per block would accept such blocks, which, if some miners intent to do, will fork the chain.
Is that block really the block when the builtin reward will reach zero? |
