There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

What exactly do you mean ? Your question is quite unprecise.

I just installed Bitcoin on 10.04 on a Virtual Machine with /home encrypted and yeah, it works fine.
Also, i have been using a lot of apps with truecrypt hard drives on my More-Hardcore-Linux-Distribution(tm), and guess what: they all work. Even data recovery utilities work on TC drives exactly the same way as on normal drives.

I have been running bitcoin on my windows 7 64bit computer with full-disk encryption for a couple months now.

No offence here, but you look pinguish.
Shouldn't you be saying "I have been running bitcoin on my Slackware 64bit computer with full-disk encryption for a couple months now." ? Wink

I would be...but it takes days to decrypt a full 1.5TB drive, I just haven't gotten around to committing the time yet lol. I will most likely end up putting some form of unix on here as I won't be playing computer games on this rig anymore.

Why would there be any difference? TrueCrypt encryption is transparent to all software.
