Quote from: NewLibertyStandard on February 23, 2010, 19:04:47 Are generated bitcoins encrypted with whichever address is currently displayed in the main Bitcoin window? No, each generated transaction uses a new, single-use address. Nothing uses the address in the main window, it’s just there for convenience for you to copy.  0.2.5 […]

Version 0.2.6 on SVN can now run as a daemon and be controlled by command line or JSON-RPC. On Linux it needs libgtk2.0-0 installed, but does not need a GUI running.  Hopefully gtk can be installed without having a windowing system installed. The command to start as a daemon is: […]

The ctrl+alt+F[1-8] thing never worked on this computer.  The screen just goes haywire. Related posts: UI improvements Uploaded some UI changes to SVN as version 0.2.5. […]

Although extremely unlikely, what would happen if two Bitcoin clients generated the same Bitcoin address? Would payments be delivered to whichever client encountered the payment first? If there is a mechanism in place to prevent such collisions, please explain it. There’s a separate public/private keypair for every bitcoin address.  You […]

There are now “Sending” and “Receiving” tabs in the Address Book.  Your addresses are referred to as “receiving addresses”. madhatter was working on building it on Mac.  He had errors probably caused by UTF-16 wxWidgets 2.8.  Should have better luck now with 2.9.0.  wxWidgets 2.9.0 is UTF-8 and wouldn’t have […]

Am I the only one seeing minuscule generation lately? It was decent until around 20:00 GMT February 21st, but after that my machine (4 core I7) produced only one block for entire >12 hours. And there isn’t even a clue for new difficulty hike in the debug log. Here are […]

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 […]

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. […]

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 […]

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 […]
