signmessage / verifymessage don't seem to work for me, verify always produces False - could someone else test as well?
I am aware of the issue; there are two problems: - a module was mising in setup.py this is fixed in git (see recent commits) - verifymessage fails with compressed keys (the new format used by the satoshi client). the result is that it will return False on a string signed by the satoshi client using a recent wallet. this was reported by nanotube. it is not fixed yet. Verifymessage still seems to always fail for me... I'm not using compressed keys, I'm just trying a basic test, signing and verifying myself. Does it work on Linux?

Thanks for the sreenshots. May i point out that it looks a bit like a product placement for satoshidice.

Aren't change addresses supposed to be used only once, by default? Some of my change addresses have been re-used many times (see screenshot) - not sure why.

OK, it seems this is related to the way SatoshiDice works, so not an Electrum issue I believe.

Beyond SatoshiDice, there are some reasons why one might want to reuse an address. It compromises anonimity, but some light clients will still do it.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

What about small TX's? Doesn't it compromise anonymity just as much to have several different-address inputs combined (not to mention it costs more in KB --> fees) than to re-use the same address until it gets to a certain amount?

Why are you intelligent guys wasting so much lifetime, intelligence and bitcoins playing this absurd SatoshiScheiss? I played it 2-3 times and didnt find out any sense! It's not even fun

if you don't want to see SatoshiDice in the doc, please feel free to replace the screenshots I made with something more neutral, that similarly illustrates the point.
I did not want to feed a troll.
(the reason I played it was to test Electrum with several interdependent transactions in the memory pool)

Hi, Electrum is now at the beta candidate before we make a release for general use. Please beta test. *** We have a new Czech translation (CS) thanks to 1byte! *** New lite GUI on by default. This is for convenience and simplicity to allow you to use Bitcoin while doing other tasks like web-browsing. Electrum targets beginner users, and we want to streamline everything as much as possible from install, and startup to use. Bitcoin clients should be small and uncomplicated. * Entering a number in the amount field will show the conversion amount. * Clicking the balance label changes the currency between USD/GBP/EUR. * Click the bottom left button to show the normal 'expert-mode' GUI. * Address box has text completion for address book entries. Currently only 1 account exists (top left button) called "Checking". Multiple accounts will be added in the next release. Design notes can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=91339.0#electrum on Freenode IRC
