Theoretically speaking as soon as the wallet touches an internet connectecd PC it becomes at risk. Problem is that i only have 1 pc. And i don't mine coins so i don't see the point of keeping a wallet on a pc thats conected to the internet.
If you dont have a second PC to generate an offline wallet then you can use Virtualbox to create a 'virtual PC'. Just yank your network cable out or turn off your router and install windows on your virtual PC (Called a Virtual Machine or VM). You can then generate a wallet that way. Using a Virtual Machine is also a good way to test any suspicious software before installing it on your actual PC. If you are going to use a paper wallet you need to understand how change addresses work or you may risk loosing coins when you transfer them back into a wallet. Heres a reddit post that explains it. http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1c9xr7/psa_using_paper_wallets_understanding_change/Behind every address is a "Private Key" which looks similar to a standard address but is longer and this is what you are really backing up and trying to keep secure. As long as you have your private key somewhere (be it in the form of a wallet.dat file or a paper wallet or simply just writing the private key down on some paper) you will ALWAYS be able to get your funds. Every wallet ever created now and in the future (some online wallets wont allow you to import private keys) will accept your private keys and you will get access to your funds. If an attacker gets your private key he has access to all your funds even if your wallet.dat is encrypted.

Guys, I think we should create a skype call community, where we can share information instantly... and talk about DigiByte a lot ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) If we already have one, can someone add me please. You can also add me in person, that will be great, too? Thank you. Skype ID: "halinyo" Please mention your BCT username. Sent you an invite Halinyo. If no one makes a group by the time I come back, I will make one. As far as an "elites" group, well, two can be made, I think it would be a good to have a think-tank of large bag holders. Made a lot when I was heavy into war gaming, it's not too hard and I prefer Skype at any rate. Hockey Stanley Cup playoffs right now though... priorities ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) (Go Caps Go) What DigiByte needs is a feature filled shopping cart like PayPal... What I mean by that is, you go to a website, shop around and once on the payment page, you click a DGB payment button and your desktop wallet pops up with the pre-filled values and all one would need to do is click send or make adjustments as needed. Make it is as painless and as work-free for the user as possible. Even a user interface like PayPal would make purchases a cinch since once would only need to feed their online wallet, would be seamless... that's what cryptos need, seamless-ness. That's what it will need to really compete with PayPal and where we'll see DGB's true form. I know tons of people who are sick of PayPal and are waiting for a DigiByte to come and save their business. However, without an "Easy-Ready" shopping cart... no one will switch.

Hello Digibyte users. Today I announce version 801 of my someday-will-be-complete M8M minerThere are high hopes for this release in terms of compatibility and fixing previous bugs. For those who read about this for the first time, M8M is an attempt at building a "don't make me think", easygoing miner before being easy started being cool. It has been written from the ground up to be easy and keep the system responsive. I often forget it's even running. It's nothing more than an icon on your notification area, with extra details on need, presented using the browser. No silly commandline-based interfaces! It is also easygoing in terms of licensing as it uses the more permissive MIT license as opposed to GPL. It is not a 1-click miner: the user is really required to understand what is a pool, what needs to be configured... but (s)he is guided in building a simple configuration and hopefully no manual is required. It is an easygoing miner, with all the unnecessary details removed while attempting to expose the user to every concept that's really important. This is a pre-beta build so there's no official announce yet on BTCtalk, I just publish a note on the coin thread instead. For discussion, PM me, or if you have reddit on the last announce (I have been considering a sub). Being this not coin specific, whatever you want to use this thread is up to you (it's not a great idea as I might miss it). I have a Radeon 7750 so I have tested only on this. More testers wanted.

I think it is being worked on, the mass adoption will definitely bring more online payment buttons and woll make use of dgb ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) that is what dgb needs. More marketing and usability.

Hi! How can I fix this? I tried on 2 different computers and on ALL versions of your miner which are available on GitHub. I cannot get past the Configuration Wizard.

Browsing the forum, I think a month back, dev team said estimated time 4-6 weeks. We are not far away. I am longing for the time in future we can pay for coffee, fast and hasslefree, no central bank.

Other people would be better suited to explaining the technical details (although those details might not clarify your questions). You asked three questions. What it means? What are the implications? How will it impact the price? Here are my best attempts at non-technical answers ... 1. It means that Digibyte is upgrading the protocol. We'll call it upgrading because - in this instance - it is an upgrade. But, in reality, a hard fork wouldn't NEED to be an upgrade, it could just be a fix or a change. Any significant changes to the protocol would require a hard fork. Keep in mind that digital currencies are a distributed network - they are a payment protocol - more specifically - the block chain is a protocol for processing, securing, and tracking transactions. But, remember, it is a distributed network ... in order to sync with the block chain, all the wallets for all the users need to be able to process the protocol (the rules for processing the blockchain) ... (or at least all the people who use the full Digibyte client and download/sync the blockchain). We could imagine adding a minor feature to the wallet - or adding a new payment service - or even creating DigiTip - these changes don't fundamentally alter the Digibyte protocol. They build features and services using the protocol but they don't change it. The coming hard fork means that DGB is upgrading the protocol that underlies all the services and transactions. 2. The implication is simple (assuming everything goes smoothly). Everyone will have to upgrade their DGB wallets to properly sync with the new protocol (at least everyone who runs DigiByte-QT). If someone fails to upgrade, they will not see transactions appear in their wallet after the hard fork (or potentially they could have serious problems). Basically, the only technical implication is that you will have to upgrade your wallet. DGB is a well-managed coin - they have a good team. Therefore, I'm not anticipating any major problems. But, just by way of disclaimer, any hard fork - for any coin - could have problems that require additional fixes, development, etc.. As I said, they've got this under control, they're clearly doing it right (not rushing to solve a major problem) ... some coins have had to rush a hard fork because they need to address an existing problem; but that's not what's going here ... DGB is taking the time they need ... and they're just upgrading the speed ... so everything should be smooth and easy. 3. There might be some short term increase in the value (assuming everything goes smooth). There might be some short term decrease in the value (if there are any problems). However, my best guess is that in the short term (first few months) there probably won't be any significant impact on the market value of DGB. Markets are forward looking. The announcement is already accounted for in the price. I've wondered if there might be some people currently selling prior to the hard fork - maybe they've had problems with other coins in the past ... so just in case they're selling some now - and planning to buy back afterward. But, really, the impact for this hard fork is more long-term (6 to 18 months) ... it lays out a foundation by improving the speed and capacity of the DGB protocol. It's a good development. It's more evidence of the strong development strategy, and the clear focus and goals that Jared (and the whole DGB team) work toward. It adds capacity, not volume. It's another feather in our hat. Jumbley's graphic of the DGB iceberg sinking the BTC titanic is relevant here. BTC is working to address the same problem - to increase the speed and capacity of their network. There was an article about it in CoinDesk a couple of weeks ago. DGB is already better positioned for micropayments, and this hard fork will make the case even stronger - to provide a foundation that merchants and customers can trust and use - etc., etc.. So, in the long-term is should lay the foundation for a higher valuation, but it should be a slow and steady process of adding and developing the volume and infrastructure.
