Can anybody help me out here ? I am getting this error on Mac OS X 10.5.8 : Dyld Error Message: Symbol not found: __ZNKSt13bad_exception4whatEv Referenced from: /Applications/Litecoin-Qt.app/Contents/MacOS/Litecoin-Qt Expected in: /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib Also related thread without solution : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55105No. Help yourself =) If you don't have anything constructive to say then please abstain from posting it. I really am banging my head against the wall here ... I googled and there seems to be no solution at all. Where can I try older versions of litecoind for Mac ? I am not even trying to run the GUI just the litecoind headless daemon. Also is there such thing like a bitcoin-mining-proxy but for Litecoin getworks ? Thank you !

I pulled today the latest version. Code compiles fine but now I get:
EXCEPTION: NSt8ios_base7failureE CAutoFile::read : end of file litecoin in Runaway exception
I did clean up the ./litecoin directory but I still get the same exception.

I got the same error after upgrading. I even tried clearing the .litecoin folder and re-downloading the blockchain, but kept getting the same error. I had to go back to commit 2170487 and restore the wallet from a backup. Unfortunately I haven't had the time to investigate the issue, but the problem seems to lie in one of the April 24/25 commits. EDIT: ali1234 fixed this bug today in commit dda31c7. It should now be safe to use the latest version from the GitHub repository. Note that if you have run the buggy code you will have to redownload the blockchain.

Hi, I found an old litecoin wallet of mine and trying to use it. The problem is that I see that is loaded with about 100 ltc, but all transactions are unconfirmed. I tried to delete everything but the wallet in the roaming folder and downloaded the blockchain again, but the balance and transactions remain with zero confirmations, so I cannot use it. Any idea?

So I started mining some litecoins to test it out yesterday and used a pool to get started. The pool send 30LC to my specified address but somehow the transactions are not showing up in my client (while the chain is synchronized). This is the address in question. Does anybody have any idea why my client won't register it? EditAnd of course a minute after I create a post the transactions somehow come in. Nevermind! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Good suggestion, however the first transaction was send 8 hours ago at the time of my post, that should have been long enough to get one confirmation ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I'm struggling to see any downsides to Litecoin when compared to Bitcoin.
The extra coins I see as a positive, as it allows more people to get involved.
The faster block speed is a great advantage IMO.
I guess my question is, what makes Bitcoin better than Litecoin other than being the first of the two to get acceptance?

Network effect. More developers are working on Bitcoin, there are more interesting projects, more useful tools, more documentation at places like bitcoin.stackexchange.com, etc. And that all builds on itself.

How often do you get the chance to work on a potentially world-changing project?

The faster block speed is a great advantage IMO. 4x the coins doesn't allow more people to get involved, it allows people to have 4x the coins. The faster block speed isn't any real advantage, you just have to wait for 4x the confirmations. Two and a half minutes is still way too long for a POS transaction. I guess my question is, what makes Bitcoin better than Litecoin other than being the first of the two to get acceptance?
I suppose that Litecoin changed virtually nothing of import from Bitcoin and expected something to happen.

the number of confirmations is the same as for bitcoin.

The number of confirmations to accept a transaction is up to the user. Assuming an identical hashrate, it would take 24 confirmations in litecoin to equal 6 confirmations in bitcoin. And one confirmation in litecoin is 4 times easier to reverse than one confirmation in bitcoin. There is no advantage here.

Thanks for clearing that up - I thought the Bitcoin/Litecoin confirmations were just as strong.

Have a read - some of the later comments about confirms etc. may help enlighten you https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=51504.0

There is no advantage here. Most transactions in the block-chain are small and having to wait for an hour or more for a small transaction to be accepted is definitely one of the issues that makes wider adoption of Bitcoin difficult. How does waiting 10 minutes vs. an hour make any difference to a small transaction? Are you going to sit around waiting at McDonald's for 10 minutes before they let you have your food? No. This can be solved outside of the protocol, and has already been. You assume your conclusion is true without any evidence ("begging the question"). However, it WILL reduce variance. So will 30 second blocks. Reality: online bitcoin transaction are too slow. Reality Opinion

This all depends upon the current total network hash rate. I believe this is true given how young litecoin is in comparison to bitcoin. =) gotta start somewhere!

That's why I said "assuming an identical hashrate"... It is true if the hash rates are (qualitatively) identical. As it is now, you probably need 100+ confirmations in litecoin to equal 6 bitcoin confirmations. Possibly way more, I don't know.

Yup and each litecoin is worth about 1200 times less than bitcoin. So I'd say based on those ratios it is secure for its tiny market value in comparison to BITCOIN
