https://forum.namecoin.info/styles/hestia_blue/imageset/nmc2015.pngNamecoin is a decentralized key/value storage system with integrated currency based on Bitcoin technology. It is being used as a decentralized DNS system ( .bit) and has the potential for a ton of other things like a web of trust, voting, personal id, bonds, etc.. More here: http://namecoin.info http://dot-bit.orgLike Bitcoin means freedom for money Namecoin means freedom for information. A lot of things have been going on behind the scenes lately. This thread is meant to be a comfortable way for you to stay up to date. It will be locked all the time and only contain the essence of crisp official announcements so you can safely activate the watch feature for this thread. Comments and discussion about Namecoin is of course very welcome and goes here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6017If you would like something to be posted in this thread PM this account. It is currently held by me, phelix, though this might change.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Out now: Namecoin-Qt & daemon with the name enforcing bug fixed.Github: https://github.com/namecoinq/namecoinq/tree/vQ.3.72Source archive: https://github.com/namecoinq/namecoinq/archive/vQ.3.72.zipsha256: 7a47611cd4dff27fbf64ccff9ef524ec33046993a2e9cb3efcb978ef1077d5dc Windows binary: http://namecoin.info/files/namecoin_win_vQ.3.72.zipsha256: 462bb3f71780a22da11c69589410a98227c429821391a9389aea45ef046be58c This is what the fixed version will do:* the name database is rebuild enforcing strict ownership of names --> if you install this version you can once again trust the key-value pairs 100% * to retain compatibility bad name operations are allowed in blocks for a while but are completely ignored * after block 150k bad transactions are disallowed in blocks --> this is a potential hard fork so everybody needs to have updated by then Thanks to:libcoin of kraken.com for finding and reporting the bug and also for helping with the fix. thecoder and snailbrain for the fix. khal and everyone else verifying, testing and supplying patches. all donators and moral supporters. Stronger than ever: Namecoin - freedom of information

A vulnerability was found in Bitcoin Core. It allows an attack from malicious peers in the local network via UPNP. Namecoin is affected, too, so everybody should turn off UPNP until further notice (see Bitcoin link).
