Just finish adapting bitaddress.org's script on the blockchain's website. So you can generate paper wallets, bulk wallets and brain wallets. Also made a couple of designs for the paper wallets. Normal wallet  Encrypted wallet  hope you guys like them, feedback is welcome  I tested a couple of addresses with send/receive and everything worked great! Let me know if something is not working as intended. Enjoy! http://hbn.blockx.info/wallets/ |

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Can someone explain why people use paper wallets? Is it just purely for security and to give people the ability to trade with those who don't have the appropriate software?

So basically,
1.) It allows you to store funds outside of a software wallet, so no one can every actually steal them
2.) It allows you to hand someone a piece of paper (or dispense it from an ATM, etc) so even without having a wallet they can acquire coins
anything else?

Cold storage of your private / public key combination in principle protects you against hackers but you need to be extra careful re
a) backing up your keys (if you only have it stored on a paper wallet and you lose it you lose all your coins)
b) physical theft of you paper wallet
In addition to encrypted wallet.dat files & cold storage paper wallets I have my keys backed up in the cloud in OpenPGP encrypted files stored in TrueCrypt containers (ie dual encryption protection).

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527144.0someone might want to get the word out there about HBN? I dont know what unique properties it has besides the ones I posted there already. I think a whitelist for people who are "new" to the game might be a nice thing not to get burned on first contact with cryptos.

@Tranz, May I suggest an enhancement in the new wallet to where it will show the total dollar amount of your total balance. Maybe use crypsty's price or coinmarketcap.com to determine the value.

can someone please update the mac wallet once it is closed by the red circle not quitting the wallet it won't come up unless you quit it and restart it
it should have a show/hide when you right click on the wallet icon to bring it up like the rest of the mac wallets.
Thanks

My first response was to be no. However considering resent IRS guidelines, it could be very useful to have a FIAT/COIN cost in the wallet, current and at time of mining. Won't be anytime soon, maybe HBN 2.0  |

ryan. I will have a look as soon as I can. I think unick was trying to get it compiled for OSX, does anyone have a good set of instructions? |

If you haven't upgraded to version 1.3+ you may want to. There are some old clients on 1.2, and they have been forked off. I have issued alerts to them. You may want to hold transfers to Cryptsy's as they are on the old version. If you are on 1.3+ and match what you see on coinwarz.com ( http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency/coins/hobonickels ) or our abe explorers ( http://hbn.blockx.info/get/chain/HoboNickels ) you are fine. I will give the coast clear to Crypty's when I see it is back on the right track. |

It seems that coinchoose.com is on the wrong chain too (or likely takes data form the wrong block explorer), displaying wrong profitability atm.

Won't be anytime soon, maybe HBN 2.0 When I PoS mine PHS, I use Alchemist to get this information. Its a pretty nice tool but I believe its closed source. Perhaps something similar can be put together for hobonickels to hold us over in the mean time?  |

The block chain is fine. Correct my if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that cryptsy never upgraded their wallet and they're on a fork, while the rest of us are happily mining away. |

This is Cryptsy's answer on my ticket: "I apologize for the inconvenience. HBN transactions are a bit delayed. We are still working on the issues with our wallet and expect it to return soon." |

Yes hopefully they can get on the right chain, soon. The move from 1.2 to 1.3 does require re-index, so it can take a bit of time.

I have seen that, seems cool something to keep in mind. Having the source code would be really helpful! |
