OK thanks riX. So, once Bitcoin has connected to at least one node then the -connect option will eliminate the 6667 warnings. Is Bitcoin using any kind of ‘peer exchange’ or DHT because this still does not seem to prevent the constant Tor ‘exit’ warnings and therefore Tor’s requirement to […]

I wanted to document an issue I encountered when first installing and using the Bitcoin software. Despite a correct installation and port forward settings I noticed that Bitcoin was not generating any coins or ‘blocks’ despite having 20+ connections for the first 24hrs. The block count just remained at 0. […]

Lately when I’ve been trying to send coins, the following popups twice, then the application terminates. EXCEPTION: St13runtime_error SendMoney() : wtxNew.AcceptTransaction() failed c:\Documents and Settings\username\bitcoin-0.2.0\bitcoin.exe in CMyApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop() When i restart bitcoin.exe, the transaction is showing as 0/unconfirmed. The status do not change even when the total block count increases. I’m […]

I second the request for 64-bit support, even if it wouldn’t make the app run faster. I’m no expert, but I can’t see any harm in it. On the other hand, it’s a good way to embrace the future. I committed a fix for 64-bit compile and some fixes to […]

Quote from: NewLibertyStandard on January 28, 2010, 09:58:17 Right now I require an email message from customers who send me bitcoins. This is not ideal because if another person knew about a transaction that was occurring, they could take credit for the transaction by sending a message before the person […]

Quote from: riX on January 27, 2010, 12:49:07 Wallets already support multiple bitcoin addresses. You should check out “Options/Change your address” in your bitcoin app 🙂 riX, you are absolutely right! 🙁 Now all I need is a command line version of Bitcoin. Quote from: satoshi on November 27, 2009, 17:27:09 Command […]

Yes, I thought it had something to do with that. It would be nice if there was a wallet tool for merging wallet files, removing unused bitcoin addresses and as you say resyncing. (I tried to just re-download all the blocks, but as you know the transactions stayed anyway.) What […]

Yes it will. Importance is relative. You can use the number of blocks to calculate some statistics. Also, if you press ctrl+[numpad+], you will see the serial number and hash of the blocks. (At least on windows). Where it says “# blocks” in the status column I’m changing it to […]

Quote from: RogerRabbit on January 25, 2010, 16:30:50 You can’t send messages to Bitcoin users unless it’s the IP? That seems unnecessary. Any reasoning behind this? I think people will use Bitcoin addresses a lot more often than the IP address when sending or receiving coins. I think it was […]
