When we can expect to see the multi-sig transactions? That would be awesome!

When we can expect to see the multi-sig transactions? That would be awesome!

in /usr/bin i have java and javaws

java is executable type pointing to /etc/alternatives/java
javaws is shell script type pointing to /etc/alternatives/javaws


the files in alternatives seem to point to yet files on 3rd location

but anyway, can javaws be the javaw you are referring to?


thanks for the help!

The current command: line for the shortcut was

/usr/bin/java -jar /home/user/multibit/multibit-exe.jar

i changed it to
/usr/bin/javaw -jar /home/user/multibit/multibit-exe.jar

and it doesn't start (just a console shows for brief second and then quits)

all sounds great and really thank you for the great answer!


I'm starting it from the startmenu shortcut and it starts with the console, is there any disadvantage to making it start without the console the way you said?

Ok when I start it a console runs in the background and the GUI in the front.
Is that how it's supposed to be?
Can we hide the console?

I'm using it on Debian if that matters.


Also it's considered now safe enough for significant amounts of coin? What's the encryption it uses for the wallet?
What's the best backup practices?

I need to send a fax (apparently there are people still accepting only this legacy form of communication), is there a site that I can just give the doc file and they can send it for me? I don't know anyone that has one of those old school devices
If I can pay for the service in bitcoins, even better!

thank you all, very useful input!

And comments like this make you EuroTrash I suppose?

Can someone paste links of those other threads everyone is talking about

I'm too busy (lazy) to do it on my own, I have more important stuff to do, you know


btw, does anyone have any real info what's going on with MtGox behind the scenes?

It seems like it's not exactly what they say.

Since mtgox is really struggling doing wires, what are our current options to cash out our bitcoins at the moment, fast and easy?

Yes, thanks for reading and summarizing it for me!

p.s.
i can't find a thing using the search functions of this forum...

So no one here has got any wires from them in the last 2 weeks?

They claim they have wired millions.

It's been about 15 days after they started doing wires again and  i still haven't got my wire which was requested before the suspension.
Did anyone get a USD wire at all from them in the last 15 days?

Does anybody know or care what was the real reason?

What's going on?

Let's say you have one bitcoin-qt with your everyday wallet where you keep small amounts for every day transactions.
And then you want to have another, separate one with yours savings (eg big amounts) That you will use just occasionally.

How would you go about protecting it? Just encrypt it and move the file to different location and swap the files with the every day wallet (risk of error and accidental delete)? VirtualMachine with another install of bitcoin-qt? Or something else?

Let's brainstorm a bit what's safe, error proof and still not too cumbersome to use at the same time?

I assume it's the only service like this?

Thank you!
For how long it has been operating like this?
It's truly amazing and i'm amazed i havent found it earlier!

That's pretty good service, thank you!

I'm looking for something similar to what aurumexchange did.
You send them bitcoins, they send you wire.

Are there any other services that do that?
