Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 has been released

[ChuckBuck]

Shout out to the whole Bitcoin Core team for all their work in getting us a stable version.

Will definitely give this a shot tonight.

Could anyone or an expert tell us why we are getting few errors from Anti viruses ?
a member is getting the following :



and I'am getting the default windows 8.1 which says if I'am sure I wanna run the program because its not trusted . Is it someone thing should I worry about or simply a false positive detection .

Can someone correct the value of the blockchain explain in the description bellow the donwload of bitcoin core ?

Bitcoin Core initial synchronization will take time and download a lot of data. You should make sure that you have enough bandwidth and storage for the full block chain size (over 20GB).

It's more than 35Go now ... (and the blockchain is, for now, the same for all users).

*trollmode* details, details, details

With a connection of 1,000 Mbps Up/Down and a decent desktop, why wouldn't one be able to?
Excellent work team, can't wait for the future version as well.

even in a 250 000 people town, you don't have a gigabit connexion at "home".
bitcoin core ... is not "only" commercial and industrial building. 

*trollmode* Sure you can. Just depends if you're willing to pay for it.

I'm sure you checked the file hashes? Then you can report a false positive to that anti-virus )or whatever it is).

So since they changed the getblocktemplate, what do we do to solo mine now? Just downgrade?

If you are solo mining, this will affect you the moment you upgrade Bitcoin
Core, which must be done prior to BIP66 achieving its 951/1001 status.
If you are mining with the stratum mining protocol: this does not affect you.
If you are mining with the getblocktemplate protocol to a pool: this will affect
you at the pool operator's discretion, which must be no later than BIP66
achieving its 951/1001 status

The way I read it, don't upgrade.

Figured. Thanks!

assuming blockchain is the same size, how does this improve the speed of the download?

You can download from multiple sources at once, while before the update bitcoin core would only download from the first node you connected to.

[Boussac]

Impressive. Many thanks to the Core team for this new version!

Trying to build on Debian 6 LTS I get:

Code:

helpers/memenv/memenv.cc:65: error: ‘SIZE_MAX’ was not declared in this scope

Any idea how to remedy this?

[Transaction2015]

thanks for updates

[crazyearner]

Any  way to re inde on this faster or scan quicker becasue seem to continue to crash my system each time I get about 50 to 70% done on it and have re downloaded block chain twice now

[IH-Antonio]

I have started yesterday a new node. The full blockchain was downloaded in about 16 hours.

[dimfot]

I installed the mac version on my mac 10.6.8 but keeps on crashing after it opens. should i re download the whole blockchain?

[Rabinovitch]

What about this error during synchronization?

My guess is you are running on a version of GCC which is at least outdated by 4 years of hard work. But if you dont post more details, I cant tell you more.

[ChuckBuck]

Well I tried this last night around 7:30PM EST and it's still going until now.

Knew it was too good to be true, to hear the reported faster indexing, 3 hours total, yada yada.

Not poopoo-ing on the devs, because they do what they can to support and improve and optimize the software, just keeping it real.

I now see the Torrent link on the top of the page, but wonder if that's any faster than just downloading the entire Blockchain from the new client.

I know this software is meant for advanced users that want to serve as nodes etc, but to take over 12-13 hours before you can even use the client...unacceptable.

Color me disapppointed.  By the way, I have a laptop with core i7 cpu, running Win 7 64 bit, 6 GB DDR 3 RAM on a Verizon FIOS symmetric 50MB internet connection, no SSD harddrive.  Even with no SSD, that shouldn't account half a whole days worth of downloading the blockchain.  I did have Bitcoin Core 0.9.1 shutdown, and then downloaded and installed 0.10.0 over it, then an error message popped, which gave me little choice but to download the entire blockchain.  Pretty much a cancel and not use Bitcoin Core, or download 34 GB worth of data to use the software.

There should an option to download locally or cache the chain in the cloud, just give the users options especially as "the wallet" promoted and developed by the Bitcoin Foundation.

Just ranting, but expecting much better.  This is my 3rd upgrade in 3 years, guess just venting because I didn't have to re-download the entire blockchain in previous installations.

Just my experience, take it for what it's worth.

thanks,
already installed and running!
