Just an advance notice: the current block is overbilled; a total of 52.8665594 BTC is due to be paid out, but most likely the reward won't be that much.
As a result, the address 15syQPo3NadEtD4UVv34ixjkZvztCHCcX1 has been chosen (more or less randomly) to be paid only ~1.56 BTC out of his due ~4.43 BTC. The remainder will be paid at the next block. Since this is random, it's quite possible some factor may end up in another address being the one delayed. So if you happen to receive unexpectedly less and your balance has over 1 BTC remaining, this is why.

That's weird.

This will never ever be made public.


Famous last words of the soon to be hacked.

...or worse, litigated.

An interesting thought occurs. A global database of black market bitcoin sellers who trade in person...and the CIA is now in play in the bitcoin scene...and major institutions are taking note and shutting us down/dosing us...interesting developments.

What a great resource such a database would be to those who would love to put the hurt on subversive individuals.

Probably nothing to worry about though, especially since I'm an investor now.

tl;dr BUY BUY BUY!

Indeed, and the utmost precautions will be taken to secure your data.

However, it is *strongly* recommended to not give your exact location. Instead, give a cross-street.

That being said, I'm totally in on this! Just bought me 1 share!

The old Cold War heating up with a Vietnamese proxy.

What is that thing they say about history?
1366  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Please test: New Experimental Pool "Eligius" on: April 30, 2011, 10:58:05 PM
I'm still not listed on the current block either. More work to be done I suppose.

That sucks. Good luck with your future endeavors and all the shiny new toys they'll give you at Google IO.

FTFY.

If you truly believe what you preach, you are the problem. You, who are so enlightened, expect others to fix it for you?

It reminds me of those citizens of the U.S.A. who claim they are against the welfare / warfare state, but continue to pay for it.

If you want to change the world, start by setting an example. Stop using money. Stop using bitcoins. Stop mining bitcoins.

Who comes to a forum about a new currency and then proceeds to blame money for the evils of the world? While mining that new currency none-the-less!

It disgusts me that you continue to bad mouth money in thread after thread, yet you use it freely when it suits your needs. Hypocrite.

This is not an attack on you, it's an attack on your actions. It's a bit difficult to take you seriously when your actions do not match your words.

Disengaging from society does not make it any better.

Thanks for clearing that up for me! I'll switch back now that I understand what's going on.

All currency is pointless. Unfortunately we live in a society dominated by a monetary system. Until that changes, vast amounts of resources will be wasted in service to such systems. Bitcoin is much better than the other currencies we have today, but that does not make it any less pointless.

I disagree.

Well, you are technically correct. The "point" of currency is to deny people the necessities of life. I just don't agree with that goal. Also, when people use the term "utopian" to describe the goals of the Venus Project, they often don't understand what is really being advocated or are trying to attack the idea outright. We advocate no utopia of any sort. There are enough resources for all people to live right now, we just choose to serve the monetary system instead of eachother.

Need to follow this thread for update news. I was a month behind on the other clients.

Holy crap, I haven't updated in a whole month!

I've been mining for the last few hours and your site tells me I have no shares. Anyone else having this issue?

Switching away until issue resolved. Lost eight hours (at least) already.

Bitcoin is cash. Expect the negative consequences.


FTFY.

Anyone who is interested in promoting these ideas and Bitcoin at the same time should check out my posts at www.witcoin.com.

You certainly seem to be proposing to create a Star Trek type economy using current technology.


Star Trek has very little to do with the economic model being discussed. While I'm sure there are similarities, we do not need to conflate the two ideas. Thanks for your interest, however and I am still grateful for any support from any fans of similar ideas.
1379  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Please test: New Experimental Pool on: April 29, 2011, 09:53:45 PM
Should each miner have its own address? Does it confuse the code at all if they don't?

RE: Mac builds:  what BlueMatt said.  Despite using a Mac as my development machine, I am not a Mac developer-- I'm an old Unix developer at heart. I learned enough Windows "Win32-api" programming to create a couple of products, and I know a lot about web development, but I'm a newbie when it comes to making applications for the Mac.

RE: wallet encryption:  I want encryption of wallet private keys (requiring you to enter your password to send coins) to be part of the next release, and I think that is a big enough feature to bump the next release version to "0.4".

RE: x86-64 client:  for the Windows?  or for Linux?  32-bit should work find on 64-bit Windows, there's no real reason to do a 64-bit version.  For Linux, there should be a bitcoin in bin/64/

RE: bitcoind not forking by default any more:  yes, that is intentional, and I forgot to mention it in the release notes.  When the mac binary is done I'll update the README.  Run bitcoind -daemon (or put daemon=1 in the bitcoin.conf file) and you'll get the old behavior.



So implementing 64-bit hashing wouldn't improve hash rate? This is my major concern. I should probably be asking this to the major mining software makers instead of the stock client maker though.
