True, this why you have to be so careful when spending bitcoin! Because it is not immediately obvious in the default client what is going on. The coderr patch makes it much more transparent.

Ahhhhh, right.

Okay, I feel stupid now

Thanks though!

I think I'm just not understanding something about the BTC protocol. Can someone explain why Bitcoin splits my transaction into seemingly random-sized smaller transactions, and why it automatically creates a new second address during a transaction ( that is, it sends some coins back to me at a new address)?

I thought you could just cleanly sign over a specific number of coins to a new address.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Great patch btw, it should be integrated into the main branch

I would go and do this immediately.

Okay... what am I doing wrong? I had Bitcoin 0.5.2 installed, and I copied the bitcoin-qt.exe from the patch over the original exe. I re-ran it, and verified it says version 0.5.1 now, but I don't see anything for "send from address".

Any ideas? Thanks!

Have you been tested for parasites? There are objective tests yu can get done for this, and if found, it's pretty easy for doctors to kill them with an IV of drugs.

I have a wallet with many addresses. Each address is kept separate for specific reasons, and I wish to spend money from a specific address. How do I achieve this?

Thanks!

Watching

Awesome work btw!

Just curious.

If I had time I would build it, not that hard.

Personally I would use such a service.

The market is an interesting place, because market activity never repeats itself. It does rhyme though, like the Mark Twain quote.

One can curve fit any indicator or methodology to the past and claim a holy grail, but the future is a different matter entirely.

I had version 0.5.1 installed, and then I downloaded and installed version 0.5.2. I ran Bitcoin-qt, and when I click about, it says that it's version 0.5.1.

So I simply uninstalled 0.5.1 and installed 0.5.2, problem solved.

But I'm not sure why the installer wouldn't overwrite the older version.

+1 Coinabul, very professional and communicative

I agree with the OP

Bitcoin trades like a penny stock, moving with speculative fever in the broader market.

If stocks crash, I would expect Bitcoin to fall as well, at least temporarily.

That said, I'm bullish long term so I would see any move down as a great buying opportunity.

Thanks!! It was bytepimp, somehow got that mixed up with bytecoin

Another thing to mention is having a separate checking wallet vs savings wallet.

The savings wallet should be uber protected and the backups obscured.

The checking wallet should be protected as well and backed up, but not obscured. This gives a thief something to find.

You may lose your checking if they can crack it, but at least they won't be trying to crack your savings wallet!

Sounds good, but I need to get the high-res version before I can do anything with it.

The current one is too blurry when expanded for t-shirt size no matter what filter I use.

Loan satisfied, that was fast!

Thanks.

Need 10 bitcents

Will pay back 20 bitcents no later than next monday ( i.e. 9 days from now ). Probably I can pay back by Thursday though.

My recieving address:

EDIT: address removed

Reasons for loan:

Introducing a friend to Bitcoin and want to send him some bitcents, but my wallet is too large and sacred to permit on my potentially spyware infected windows computer. Dwolla transfer should complete next week so I can pay back then.

Thanks!
