Today, I’ve got an error message: Exception: 9key_error CKey::CKey(); EC:KEY_new_by_curve_name failed bitcoin in ThreadBitcoinMiner() Console: terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘key_error’ what(): CKey::CKey() : EC_KEY_new_by_curve_name failed Aborted I hope that isn’t a buffer overflow. Have anybody this error message too? OS: linux Does it happen every time you […]

Quote from: Xunie on May 14, 2010, 21:52:53 I suggest we disable IP transactions while the user uses a Proxy! Just to be on the safe side. That’s a good idea.  At the very least a warning dialog explaining that it’ll connect to the IP and send the information cleartext, […]

Could the bitcoin network be destroyed by someone generating endless bitcoin addresses nonstop? I mean it sounds like it would do something really bad to it. I’m pretty sure at some point a website will take payments in bitcoins and will decide to generate a new bitcoin address for each […]

Quote from: tcatm on August 16, 2010, 00:43:39 I propose to compile sha256.cpp with -O3 -march=amdfamk10 (will work on 32bit and 64bit) as only CPUs supporting this instruction set (AMD Phenom, Intel i5 and newer) benefit from -4way and it’ll improve performance by ~9%. GCC 4.3.3 doesn’t support -march=amdfamk10.  I […]

Yes. Any built proxy implementation would be open source and automated bitcoin payments would be great. I will post the psiphon info. and links because the project has just moved from v1 to v2 and the implementations are very different. Psiphon is a free ‘circumvention’ tool and should remain so. […]

Mihalism Multi Host is a popular open source PHP file hosting server. It’s geared toward image hosting, but I think by increasing the file size limit and liberalising the allowed file extensions, it could just as easily be used for general file upload hosting.  They need the limits to keep […]

Add this to the ‘cons list’ for cash: – Possibility of RFID imbedded into the bills. They could be read by the machines at your local post office and throw a red flag on the destination address. LR and Pecunix have many established exchanges to paper currencies by various payment […]

Is http://www.bitcoin.com a valid implementation of the bitcoin protocol? How are they able to use the name? Does anyone know who is behind it? It’s unrelated.  There wasn’t anything there when I started. The price of .com registrations is lower than it should be, therefore any good name you might […]

Good idea. I’ll eventually be setting up a ‘one hop’, SSL, http, login protected proxy service (similar to the 1st Psiphon project) and accepting bitcoins as payment. I’m UK based so it will be good for using BBC iplayer etc. 🙂 I will be giving bitcoin users priority service, as well […]
