961  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / remember "Death Spiral" and "Miners Quitting" before halving! on: September 16, 2016, 06:38:37 AM
Remember, Remember!
The 5th of november 9th of July.
The Halving FUD and Plot.
I know of no reason
Why the Halving FUD
Should ever be forgot!


Before halving aside from all the hype about the price going to the moon there was a lot of talk about mining not being profitable anymore and miners quitting because of it. To a point where it was called a "Death Spiral" because of halving!

Now that some time has passed from halving The Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Increased for the Fourth Time Since Halving! the hashrate is rising and miners are continuing their jobs even stronger than before!

964  Bitcoin / Project Development / [C#] Watch Only Bitcoin Wallet. Support SegWit and Forks (V3.2.1) on: September 14, 2016, 02:54:14 PM
Table of Contents

__________

Introduction
This is a simple open source tool which can help users keep track of their bitcoin addresses, balance of each address, bitcoin price and Total balance value in BTC, $ and user's local currency, balances at a specific height.
The main focus will be in keeping this tool light and fast.



*Click on the image to see bigger size*


Features
  • Capable of holding multiple bitcoin addresses with tags, address and their balances.
  • Validating each address with Base58_encoding and new Bech32 format for Segregated Witness.
  • Using a grid (like excel) to show the list which makes it easy to add/edit/remove items.
  • Import addresses in bulk from file or paste in textbox (seperate by newline).
  • Using different block explorer API services to update balances.
  • See the total bitcoin amount in BTC, USD and user defined local currency.
  • USD value can be retrieved from Bitfinex.com or Btc-e.com exchanges using their API.
  • View balance at a specific block height. This is useful for checking how much you owned when a fork like bitcoin cash happened.

  • [✓]Add other block explorer's APIs and the ability to switch between them.
  • [✓]Add a couple of bitcoin exchanges API for receiving the live bitcoin price.
  • [✓]Add Base58CheckSum check for the input bitcoin address to prevent typos.
  • [✓]Change the style from TextBox to a ListView to make adding unlimited addresses easier.
  • [✓]Handling possible Excretions properly.
  • [✓]Adding the option to create a raw unsigned transaction.(A separate project! Link)
  • [✓]Add unit test.

you bumped a topic from 2+ years ago to give a crappy answer and ask for donation?!!!
966  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [still open] blockchain headers stopped at 400043, no longer downloading on: September 12, 2016, 03:10:40 PM
bump and update:
the issue still exists.
i have downgraded Electrum to 2.5.4, then down to 2.3.2 and then down to 2.2

each time removing everything including the blockchain_headers file and the download is always gets stuck at the same place (400043).
i also left the Electrum running for a couple of hours and checking my firewall it has downloaded about 70 MB but the headers were not updated.

then i downgrade to 2.0.2 and the problem was solved. i now have the latest block headers up do recent block height 429480

i have now upgraded back to latest version 2.6.4 and will wait a while until new blocks are mined then run Electrum to see if it can update now.

update:
it is now updating but still update from scratch on newer versions doesn't work!
967  Other / Off-topic / looking for a couple of Icons for the applications that i am making on: September 12, 2016, 04:12:42 AM
i have a couple of small projects that i am looking for some Icons or ideas about designing an Icon to add to them and make them look cooler  Cool



1) looking for a wallet icon for the "watch only wallet that i have made".

if you want to know what this is, i will make a proper announcement when i finished the project and solved some thrown Exceptions but for now you can see the source code in my signature.

i was thinking about designing one myself with a wallet image and a binoculars or something like that but that would require some time to spend on it.


2) looking for a Robot icon that i can use for a bot that i made. (personal project)

i am using this one which is also my avatar too but as you can see in the first screenshot the antenna of Bender makes it look smaller and unclear.
968  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: APIs to know the balance of a bitcoin address on: September 10, 2016, 11:14:10 AM
##
i Call with python program, no errors in others APIs but, this not work:

Code:
addr = '1dice8EMZmqKvrGE4Qc9bUFf9PX3xaYDp'

request = 'https://www.blockonomics.co/api/balance/' + addr
response = requests.get(request)
content = response.json()
content = int(content['response']['confirmed'])

####

your problem is in your first line of code `request` you should send the request to the URI without the appended `addr` instead you should put the `addr` inside of a HttpRequest (equivalent in python) and `post` it.

also you need to add a header with the ApiKey
Code:
POST https://www.blockonomics.co/api/balance
Request body: {"addr": <Whitespace seperated list of bitcoin addresses/xpubs>}
p.s. everywhere i look i see people are using python these days, i am getting depressed for choosing to learn C# Cool
969  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: APIs to know the balance of a bitcoin address on: September 10, 2016, 07:56:41 AM
Also Blockonomics api

I suggest you have a look a moneywagon project.
Using it you can use bitcoin api, without worrying about backend service.
It will do roundrobin/random selection of service, or also can do paranoid checking to make sure balance is correct
across several services. It also supports most of the existing API services

Thanks for this new API, but don't have JSON response...

what do you call this if not JSON response Smiley
Code:
{"response": [{"confirmed": 189412205, "addr": "1dice8EMZmqKvrGE4Qc9bUFf9PX3xaYDp", "unconfirmed": 012211 }, {"confirmed": 746599881, "addr": "1dice97ECuByXAvqXpaYzSaQuPVvrtmz6", "unconfirmed": 0}]} 
970  Other / Meta / Re: klondike_bar account was hacked - help me recover it! on: September 09, 2016, 05:40:17 AM
this is why i made the proposal of making account recovery automatic using a signed message from bitcoin address instead of Secret Question or Email Recovery options.
971  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: APIs to know the balance of a bitcoin address on: September 08, 2016, 06:12:11 AM
thanks for this, i was looking for more APIs to use in my watch only bitcoin wallet. i am currently only using blockchain.info i guess i will only add blockr.io and maybe blockexplorer that should be enough.

p.s. please add all of them in the first post so we can see them all in one place.
972  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [C#][Github] Custom BBCode creator for Overview of Bitcointalk SigCamps Table on: September 03, 2016, 01:08:27 PM
Nice project! Why C#?Have to install a lot of dependencies to run it.

if you are on windows (which majority of users are) you don't need any dependencies except .Net Framework 4.5 which is included from windows 7 onward. plus i only know c# Cheesy
for compiling you can use Visual Studio which can be downloaded as express version (small) for free from Microsoft website.
also there are ways to run it on Linux and Mac using Mono

I'm looking forward to make a web version of it.Thanks for keeping the code on github.Additionally,I;d like to add a bbcode viewer so the signature is actually shown along with the code. Smiley

i'd like to see that.
973  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [C#][Github] Custom BBCode creator for Overview of Bitcointalk SigCamps Table on: September 03, 2016, 05:12:23 AM
Great project. I'll take a look at this.
I haven't been able to find a good BBcode creator. most of them have been extremely buggy.

thank you.
you gave me an idea, i have to take a look at some of those BBCode creators maybe i'll make one too. this project is only for creating a specific kind of BBCode.

Oh nice ill check this out.

don't forget to come back and give me your criticism.
974  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Generate and push a raw Bitcoin transaction on: September 02, 2016, 04:48:00 PM

this is an open source project created in order to make the creation of BB Code table for Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns easy and user friendly with a nice GUI.

the project was created using Visual Studio 2013, and it is written in C#

screenshot (click to see larger image):

I am Looking for Criticism about my code, so any comment is greatly appreciated.
976  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Official bitcoin logo on: September 02, 2016, 04:18:13 PM
It is a really good design, IMO, not only it has the bitcoin design, but also has a hidden message from the image of the moon and the shape of the board (that bitcoin will rocketing to the moon). I don't know about surfing stuff, but will it be compatible and applicable to perform just like the other board? I mean, I think the shape is a little bit different

i have no experience in surfing stuff either (sadly) but i did some research and found some cool pictures of surfing boards and the drawings on them.
so this is supposed to be the top surface of the board where you stand on.

p.s. i added the moon just for fun, but it looks a little out of place IMO Cheesy
977  Other / Archival / Re: Updated Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns on: September 02, 2016, 03:24:02 PM
i see you have been active. nice job.

here is my link that i promised. it took me a while to learn how to commit from inside of Visual Studio 2013

https://github.com/Coding-Enthusiast/OverviewOfBTKSigCamps

as always looking for criticism about the code.


sorry for being off-topic Mitchell.
i made a topic on the board you suggested. and i will no longer continue discussion about it here.
978  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Official bitcoin logo on: September 02, 2016, 03:01:56 PM
i saw this topic yesterday and i had a couple of ideas so i took the opportunity to do a little bit of designing. although it is a novice attempt and you can use it to come up with some ideas yourself Cheesy

You might wanna add the colors as well. Instead of 0, you should be able to accept "x", which can be done by making it accept a string instead of a double.

it is more like a beta version and i will think of something for the color and x and ...

It appears to me that you stepped up your coding game, eh? Smiley The algorithm for that program is easy but it's really helpful. Good work, buddy!

to me it is not that easy since i am a beginner programmer, but it is definitely fun to work on a real applicable project.


i will do some exception handling and then start learning about how to release on Github and will post the link to the code here.

and i ask anybody with any programming skill to criticize the hell out of my code please Grin
980  Other / Archival / Re: Updated Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns on: August 31, 2016, 10:13:10 AM
how is this?


it produced this BBCode for one row which you can add to the table (have not yet implemented coloring, *, and x):
Code:
[table]
[tr]
[td]A[/td][td]|[/td]
[td][url=https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1545750.0]777Coin[/url][/td][td]|[/td]
