Uploaded some UI changes to SVN as version 0.2.5. Instead of View->Show Generated, we now have tabs: – All Transactions – Sent/Received – Sent – Received Makes it a lot easier to flip to received and check for payments. Moved the “Your Addresses” book inside the main address book. It […]

Re: Current Bitcoin economic model is unsustainable
Nothing to sweat people. Nobody ever died of a ‘deflationary spiral.’ 🙂 I agree with “I-am-not-anonymous.” The market will choose the best bitcoin-like currency. I happen to believe, however, that the rules that Satoshi has founded bitcoin on will be more than adequate for the future of a thriving bitcoin economy. […]
Read morePost your static IP
It would be nice to have a list of static IPs for new users to send test donations to so they can see how the software works. If you can accept incoming connections and you have a static IP address, post it here! Anything sent to these IPs should be […]
Read moreRe: Number of connections
Is there some hard-coded maximum limit for the amount of connections? I see 45 connections atm. It’s been growing nicely in the last months. Just can’t get that many coins anymore… Nodes stop trying to initiate connections once they have 15. If you can accept incoming connections, then you can […]
Read moreRe: Bitcoin client and website translation
I updated the SVN with changes to support translation. Translatable strings are all enclosed in _(“”), and we’re using UTF-8 on all platforms. When the program runs, it looks in the directory of the EXE for the file: locale\<langcode>\LC_MESSAGES\bitcoin.mo <langcode> is the two letter code of the language your OS […]

Quote from: Sabunir on February 16, 2010, 08:51:51 . Perhaps it has to do with my connection’s very high latency (2000ms or more on average) 2 seconds of latency in both directions should reduce your generation success by less than 1%. Quote from: Sabunir on February 16, 2010, 08:51:51 and/or […]

Quote from: Suggester on February 16, 2010, 02:15:49 Satoshi, I figured it will take my modern core 2 duo about 20 hours of nonstop work to create ฿50.00! With older PCs it will take forever. People like to feel that they “own” something as soon as possible, is there a […]
Read moreRe: Setting up multiple bitcoin machines behind NAT
Hello, well the title says it all. I want to set up multiple bitcoin machines behind NAT. For this it reason would be nice, if one could choose an other port than 8333, which I guess would have other nice side effects. Maybe someone uses this port for something else […]
Read moreRe: Proof-of-work difficulty increasing
We had our first automatic adjustment of the proof-of-work difficulty on 30 Dec 2009. The minimum difficulty is 32 zero bits, so even if only one person was running a node, the difficulty doesn’t get any easier than that. For most of last year, we were hovering below the minimum. […]
Read moreRe: What’s with this odd generation?
Is the fee enough to always ensure the profitability of running a node, even when BitCoin generation stops being profitable? Right. Otherwise we couldn’t have a finite limit of 21 million coins, because there would always need to be some minimum reward for generating. In a few decades when the […]
