Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

I cannot figure out how to mine any ALT currencies with my ASIC USB miner and CGMiner...most of them use scrypt and when i try to use that with cgminer-nogpu.exe i get a "unrecognized option" error. Any help?

It's not possible. You can't mine scrypt coins with a sha256 ASIC. I see...

WOW --- i guess intelligence or Computer competence is no prerequisite for being a senior member in these forums... you haven't figured out the PRIMARY Reason the Script Coins were developed was to avoid the ability to be mined by ASIC devices.... WHAT are you stupid? Blind? or Willfulling ignorant??? I have to wonder???

That's a good idea, but you must tell us what the upper limit is (not everybody is a programmer).
It's not ready yet, that's why there is no full explanation at the moment, but it's quite simple. Just one example, if you have two options: - 1000 coins input
- 10 x 100 coins inputs
there will be no difference in profitability, which is wrong. Smaller inputs should be prioritized, because it's significantly better for the network, that's why we need this upper limit for the reward. To make sure that there will be no malicious stakeholders, which are able to manipulate by PoS difficulty through using larger inputs instead of smaller ones. Have you decided yet what the upper limit is?

This limit is set to 10 coins, but inactive until 20 Oct 2013. According to result of our analysis (and independent results too), it's an optimal value. But we are also working on alternate solution. It's a dynamic computation of the reward limit, based on PoW difficulty. Maybe this function will replace a static limit in the future, but I don't think so.

It works slightly faster and able to function in the pure 64 bit environment, e.g. - 64-bit WinPE;
- Windows Server Core without WoW64 layer installed.

MinWG64 adapted branch published: https://github.com/CryptoManiac/novacoin/commits/novacoin-win64There are some OutputDebugStringF related warnings yet, will deal with it later. P.S. Thinking about the ZeroCoin integration.

Rebuilt just now with leveldb and bdb, the both builds are working fine.  And BDB build successfully loaded with 0.4.3 client database. Can you publish your data folder? Except for wallet.dat, of course.
