  58 2012-03-18 01:35:05 <mcorlett> gmaxwell: Is there consensus as to when you will be announcing the fix publicly?
  59 2012-03-18 01:35:44 <jrmithdobbs> mcorlett: it's already available
  60 2012-03-18 01:36:16 <mcorlett> jrmithdobbs: Is that so? Where can I find it?
  61 2012-03-18 01:37:28 <jrmithdobbs> in 0.5.3.1 and 0.6.0rc4?
  62 2012-03-18 01:37:46 <mcorlett> Those are compiled. I want the source.
  63 2012-03-18 01:37:54 <jrmithdobbs> um
  64 2012-03-18 01:38:07 <jrmithdobbs> all builds are done based off what's in github, so if there are binaries the source is already available.
  65 2012-03-18 01:38:14 <nanotube> jrmithdobbs: that's not the case.
  66 2012-03-18 01:38:19 <nanotube> in this particular case
  67 2012-03-18 01:38:31 <nanotube> it seems they've built the fixed binaries without pushing the source of the fix to github
  68 2012-03-18 01:38:34 <nanotube> for 'extra protection'
  69 2012-03-18 01:38:46 <nanotube> so mcorlett poses a valid question
  70 2012-03-18 01:38:49 <nanotube> afaik
  71 2012-03-18 01:38:52 <jrmithdobbs> err wtf
  72 2012-03-18 01:39:14 <jrmithdobbs> whose cockimamey idea was that crap? you mean i'm building vulnerable verions?
  73 2012-03-18 01:39:34 <mcorlett> jrmithdobbs: Yes to the latter question.
  74 2012-03-18 01:39:47 <mcorlett> (Only Windows + Qt, though.)
  75 2012-03-18 01:40:00 <mcorlett> bitcoind and Qt on Mac/Linux are safe.
  76 2012-03-18 01:40:00 <luke-jr> jrmithdobbs: if you're building for windows…
  77 2012-03-18 01:40:32 <jrmithdobbs> i'm aware
  78 2012-03-18 01:41:14 <gmaxwell> nanotube: 0.6.0rc4 is on github.
  79 2012-03-18 01:41:34 <jrmithdobbs> i thought so, cause the version got bumped last pull i did so the error message would go away
  80 2012-03-18 01:41:43 <nanotube> gmaxwell: ah ok, so it's just the 0.5.3.1 that's missing?
  81 2012-03-18 01:41:57 <gmaxwell> 0.5.3.1 is not simply because the only fix in that version is the relevant one.
  82 2012-03-18 01:42:16 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: someone building 0.6.0rc4 from git will not get the fix
  83 2012-03-18 01:42:21 <jrmithdobbs> it was this wasn't it?
  84 2012-03-18 01:42:28 <jrmithdobbs> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/901
  85 2012-03-18 01:42:46 <mcorlett> I thought so as well, but that's pretty old.
  86 2012-03-18 01:42:56 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: we're not discussing the specifics right now.
  87 2012-03-18 01:44:13 <luke-jr> ;;tell jrmithdobbs FYI, building 0.6.0rc4 from git will *not* get the fix

  93 2012-03-18 01:46:31 <jrmithdobbs> so you're not providing a fix to anyone that doesn't run official binaries? that seems kind of backwards.
  94 2012-03-18 01:47:14 <luke-jr> jrmithdobbs: all Windows users run official binaries, no?

 290 2012-03-18 08:03:04 <Cory> About 15% over the last 100.
 291 2012-03-18 08:03:14 <da2ce7> hmm... wow.

 293 2012-03-18 08:03:16 <Cory> Probably similar for last 1000.
 294 2012-03-18 08:03:24 <da2ce7> that is a massive chunk of mining power.

 302 2012-03-18 08:04:53 <da2ce7> providing the MM continues to mine on the chain... and dosn't carry out any 51% attack... well then we don't have any _real_ issues.
 303 2012-03-18 08:05:00 <Graet> gmaxwell, has made some intelligent foru posts on the subject :)
 304 2012-03-18 08:05:07 <Graet> indeed
 305 2012-03-18 08:05:41 <Graet> someone made a graph, but i closed the tab this morn
 306 2012-03-18 08:06:50 <da2ce7> when the BFL's start comming online... that should give the MM a run for it's hashpower.
 307 2012-03-18 08:08:11 <Graet> maybe he already has them...

 309 2012-03-18 08:13:54 <phantomcircuit> Graet, first point is false
 310 2012-03-18 08:14:03 <phantomcircuit> thus article was poorly researched
 311 2012-03-18 08:14:08 <Graet> i agree
 312 2012-03-18 08:14:11 <phantomcircuit> </topic>
 313 2012-03-18 08:14:21 <Graet> thus sipporting my earlier statement
 314 2012-03-18 08:14:22 <da2ce7> it costs no more to include transactions.
 315 2012-03-18 08:14:29 <da2ce7> *close enough to 0
 316 2012-03-18 08:14:51 <phantomcircuit> its clearly a pool of some kind
 317 2012-03-18 08:14:56 <phantomcircuit> possibly a botnet
 318 2012-03-18 08:15:25 * da2ce7 thinks it is a asic team testing their boards...
 319 2012-03-18 08:15:58 <da2ce7> there is no way a bot-net _that_ large could excape notice
 320 2012-03-18 08:16:02 <SomeoneWeird> possibly
 321 2012-03-18 08:16:12 <SomeoneWeird> unless someone developed a zeus module for mining
 322 2012-03-18 08:18:36 <Graet> yer watched all this discussion b4, might go do something interesting :)

 354 2012-03-18 09:50:31 <ThomasV> [Tycho]: very different from miner to miner?
 355 2012-03-18 09:51:01 <[Tycho]> Yes.
 356 2012-03-18 09:51:20 <[Tycho]> Even power cost can vary by many times from place to place.
 357 2012-03-18 09:54:03 <ThomasV> it would be nice if tx fees where high enough to account for the difference between mining profitably and mining at a loss
 358 2012-03-18 09:54:16 <ThomasV> but we are far from there
 359 2012-03-18 09:56:11 <ThomasV> there are on average about 50 transactions per block
 360 2012-03-18 09:57:04 <[Tycho]> Yes, transactions are nice.
 361 2012-03-18 09:57:12 <ThomasV> if the average fee was 0.05 btc, then a miner that does not include transactions at all would have a 5% loss
 362 2012-03-18 09:58:23 <[Tycho]> Depends on the TX size
 363 2012-03-18 09:58:32 <[Tycho]> 0.01 per 1000 bytes would be ok
 364 2012-03-18 09:59:07 <ThomasV> yes, but tx size is not relevant for what I am talking about
 365 2012-03-18 09:59:49 <ThomasV> it's true that large tx have a larger storage cost, but this cost is not supported directly by the miner who eats the fee
 366 2012-03-18 10:00:03 <ThomasV> it is supported by the whole network
 367 2012-03-18 10:00:24 <[Tycho]> TX size may be important for miners
 368 2012-03-18 10:00:39 <ThomasV> only if they reach the block size limit
 369 2012-03-18 10:00:51 <ThomasV> and have to choose between transactions
 370 2012-03-18 10:00:54 <[Tycho]> No
 371 2012-03-18 10:01:07 <ThomasV> why?
 372 2012-03-18 10:01:33 <[Tycho]> Usually big TXes contain more inputs and are more difficult to process.
 373 2012-03-18 10:01:54 <ThomasV> yes
 374 2012-03-18 10:03:10 <ThomasV> you are right
 375 2012-03-18 10:04:04 <sipa> ecdsa verification cost or (eternal) storage cost dominates
 376 2012-03-18 10:04:12 <ThomasV> but does this difficulty significantly impact cost?
 377 2012-03-18 10:04:28 <[Tycho]> ThomasV: yes.
 378 2012-03-18 10:05:16 <ThomasV> I thought that once you have verified a tx, the major cost comes from hashing
 379 2012-03-18 10:05:31 <sipa> hashing is not a cost
 380 2012-03-18 10:05:37 <ThomasV> the tx verification needs to be performed only once
 381 2012-03-18 10:05:50 <[Tycho]> There are other things that depend on block size.
 382 2012-03-18 10:05:52 <ThomasV> sipa: huh?
 383 2012-03-18 10:06:07 <sipa> well, it is, but it is one that is not required by the transaction
 384 2012-03-18 10:06:31 <ThomasV> sipa: sure. but that's precisely my point
 385 2012-03-18 10:06:34 <sipa> it will happen anyway, at the economically feasible rate
 386 2012-03-18 10:07:12 <ThomasV> my point is that it is currently economically meaningful to just hash, and include zero tx in your block
 387 2012-03-18 10:07:22 <sipa> sure
 388 2012-03-18 10:07:36 <ThomasV> I am wondering how high tx fees have to get in order to change that
 389 2012-03-18 10:08:47 <ThomasV> for example, if tx fees were 5% of the reward, would it be enough?
 390 2012-03-18 10:11:22 <da2ce7> providing there is no 51% attack... it is a self-correcting system... People will get anoyed with long time to confirm transactions... and will start to include more fees.
 391 2012-03-18 10:11:54 <da2ce7> then there is an compeditive advantage to those miners who include transactions... whatever the marginal cost is in verifiying them.
 392 2012-03-18 10:13:24 <ThomasV> yes, but currently the competitive advantage is not there
 393 2012-03-18 10:14:14 <da2ce7> so that is what we are seeing... people are quite happy to trade low fees for slightly longer verification times.
 394 2012-03-18 10:14:17 <ThomasV> I am just trying to estimate what average tx fee is needed for that competitive advantage to exist and to be meaningful
 395 2012-03-18 10:14:26 <da2ce7> at some point it will even out.
 396 2012-03-18 10:15:18 <da2ce7> ThomasV: I don't think there is a fixed 'cost' to that will make NO block contain only 1 tx... some nodes process the transctions already, so including them in the block is no aditional cost.
 397 2012-03-18 10:15:56 <[Tycho]> Sometimes I do 1Tx blocks too :)
 398 2012-03-18 10:17:54 <da2ce7> also if pools start not processing transactions... it is likely that the users will hop to a different pool... Because each miner _enjoys_ having very low fee transctions.
 399 2012-03-18 10:20:44 <ThomasV> da2ce7: sure, but suppose someone wants to attack the network, trying to slow down transactions. in the current situation, such an attack is profitable, because you can sell your 50btc to pay for your expenses. my question is, what is the amount of fees that is needed so that such an attack is no longer subsidized, but starts to cost
 400 2012-03-18 10:21:29 <da2ce7> ThomasV: you are not attacking the network unless you purposely ophan other blocks with a 51% attack.
 401 2012-03-18 10:21:45 <da2ce7> there is no 'fair' or 'unfair' play otherwise.
 402 2012-03-18 10:22:46 <ThomasV> da2ce7: from a user point of view, someone down transactions can be considered as an attack

 404 2012-03-18 10:24:03 <da2ce7> ThomasV: no, becasue that user didn't pay for the "attackers" hashing.  Rarther the "attacker" (supose it isn't doing a 51% attack), is just adding aditional strength to the network.
 405 2012-03-18 10:24:28 <da2ce7> making the users transctions more secure... _once_ they get included in a block.
 406 2012-03-18 10:25:39 <ThomasV> yes, if 51% is the only threat that you worry about

 408 2012-03-18 10:27:39 <da2ce7> even if the "attacker" had 99% of the hashing power... the network would be fine... and very secure, providing the "attacker" didn't orphan the 1/100 blocks that the rest of the network finds (that there would be huge compition to get into, thus attracting high fees).
 409 2012-03-18 10:27:42 <Graet> luke set the precedent with um coiledcoin or something, mine ALL the blocks but include no txn ;)
 410 2012-03-18 10:28:31 <da2ce7> Graet: yes... but he ophaned other blocks...
 411 2012-03-18 10:28:31 <da2ce7> so he was doing a 51% attack.

 413 2012-03-18 10:29:18 <ThomasV> if you have 51%, nothing prevents you from orphaning blocks
 414 2012-03-18 10:30:29 <Graet> he was doing a 100% attack i thought :P
 415 2012-03-18 10:32:28 <da2ce7> ThomasV: yes... but what happens if I'm some mad mathamatitian who works out how to do sha256 in one millionth of the time... so I mine the network, (keeping the flaw in sha256 secert), however don't ophan any competing blocks.
 416 2012-03-18 10:32:53 <da2ce7> what I'm doing in-fact is just making the network more secure.

 418 2012-03-18 10:36:51 <ThomasV> da2ce7: the current 'mystery miner' does not seem to be trying to orphan blocks. he mined 171675. then slush mined 171676. then he mined 171677. this means that when slush published his block, he spent his hashing power finding 171677, not to orphan 171676.
 419 2012-03-18 10:38:04 <ThomasV> you can see it here: http://www.blockchain.info/blocks
 420 2012-03-18 10:38:14 <da2ce7> ThomasV: yes, and the MM has less than 50% anyway. :) so maybe it is just an anon friend of bitcoin.

 423 2012-03-18 10:40:06 <ThomasV> I believe this sequence means that he spent his computing power on 171677 instead of trying to orphan slush's block. but I am not an expert.. perhaps it is possible to merge-mine both tasks?
 424 2012-03-18 10:40:30 <ThomasV> (I don't know how merged mining works)
 425 2012-03-18 10:41:16 <ThomasV> could someone who knows about it confirm?

 427 2012-03-18 10:43:36 <da2ce7> ThomasV: no... not within the same chain.
 428 2012-03-18 10:44:18 <da2ce7> merged mining happens when you have two chains... you insert the root of the 2nd chain into the coinbase of the 1st.  (or mykel tree).
 429 2012-03-18 10:44:44 <ThomasV> good. that's what I though
 430 2012-03-18 10:45:18 <da2ce7> whenever you find a low-enough hash you publish the block you were working on... the Merged Mining chain will look completly differnt to the Bitcoin (or whatever host chain), that is used.
 431 2012-03-18 10:46:01 aleod has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
 432 2012-03-18 10:46:26 <ThomasV> so we can be reasonably sure this MM is not trying to orphan blocks
 433 2012-03-18 10:46:55 <ThomasV> or at least he was not at the time of block 171677
 434 2012-03-18 10:50:10 <da2ce7> yes... It seems like the MM isn't atempting to orphan blocks atm... However it dosn't make sence to, unless you have a clear 51% of the network hashing power.
 435 2012-03-18 10:50:17 <da2ce7> (you will make less money)...
 436 2012-03-18 10:51:10 <theorbtwo> da2ce7: It's also arguable that for most people, you'll get more money making bitcoin not fall apart if you have more then 51%.
 437 2012-03-18 10:52:14 <ThomasV> unless your goaal is to make it fall apart :)
 438 2012-03-18 10:52:32 <da2ce7> theorbtwo: however at some point it dosn't make sence not to include the higher-fee transactions in you blocks, if you are not looking to make bitocin fall apart.
 439 2012-03-18 10:54:10 <ThomasV> even if you are trying to make it fall apart, you would remain covert and act normal until you have 51%
 440 2012-03-18 10:54:53 <Graet> why? being out oin the open is causing much discussion and fear
 441 2012-03-18 10:55:07 <da2ce7> ThomasV: yes... you would maximize proffits so that you can extract as much money from bitcoin before you distoyed it.
 442 2012-03-18 10:55:26 <ThomasV> Graet: so that you can still resell your coins, and fund your hardware
 443 2012-03-18 10:55:52 <da2ce7> Graet: is also make people think about possible mitergations, and gives people inpouluse to code aganst an possible attack.
 444 2012-03-18 10:56:06 <Graet> if your goal is to destriy bitcoin causing fear and making ppl leave will reduce your hardware costs

 447 2012-03-18 10:57:42 <da2ce7> Remember, in-theroy... Users can choose whatever fork they want... if there is a 51% attack, there is nothing wrong with a user forcing his or her client to only accept the chain that deepbit, slush, and others are mining on.
 448 2012-03-18 10:58:03 <da2ce7> Also, Pools and other miners are free to choose what chain they mine on... even if it is the shorter chain.
 449 2012-03-18 10:58:37 <slothbag> does anyone know if there is a virtual machine image or something like that for building statically linked bitcoin-qt builds? particularly windows builds?
 450 2012-03-18 10:59:00 <da2ce7> while it may be possible to have a 51% attack... less "pure" forms of bitcoin can make it much much harder to sustain such an attack.

 457 2012-03-18 11:07:05 <TuxBlackEdo> i am not sure how it works now, but whatever chain is the longest is the one bitcoin will send transactions to? i might be wrong about that
 458 2012-03-18 11:10:04 <da2ce7> from my analysis the security of bitcoin... even when the reward goes down to virtualy 0, reamins good... providing the attacker isn't externaly financaly motiviated.

 460 2012-03-18 11:10:53 <da2ce7> I'm convinced that bitcoin is secure from internal attacks (eg, a party financaly motivated to gain bitcoin).
 461 2012-03-18 11:12:31 <ThomasV> what is a 15% attack? it's an attack perpertrated by a dyslexic

 468 2012-03-18 11:33:41 <sipa> Eliel: some proof-of-stake schemes depend on that

 474 2012-03-18 11:49:06 <ThomasV> da2ce7: you know that there are checkpoints in the blockchain, that are coded in the client
 475 2012-03-18 11:49:18 <da2ce7> yes.
 476 2012-03-18 11:49:25 <ThomasV> this means that devs are trusted for that
 477 2012-03-18 11:49:35 <ThomasV> it relates to what you are saying
 478 2012-03-18 11:49:58 <ThomasV> but you are thinking of something more dynamic
 479 2012-03-18 11:51:10 <sipa> anyone who does not investigate the sourcecode thoroughly, is trusting the developer of his client
 480 2012-03-18 11:51:23 <ThomasV> sure
 481 2012-03-18 11:51:32 <da2ce7> first off:  I would have every pool and major miner optionally include a cryptographic signature in the blocks that they produce.
 482 2012-03-18 11:52:03 <sipa> using which key?
 483 2012-03-18 11:52:28 <da2ce7> sipa: dosn't matter... they can choose a 'mining signing key'
 484 2012-03-18 11:52:30 <ThomasV> da2ce7: but then bitcoin might become a closed "club"
 485 2012-03-18 11:52:43 <ThomasV> being open is nice too
 486 2012-03-18 11:52:59 <da2ce7> ThomasV: yes... but all this only comes into play... IF an 51% attack happens.
 487 2012-03-18 11:53:28 <ThomasV> you can always pretend one is happening
 488 2012-03-18 11:54:06 <da2ce7> ThomasV: no... it is very ovious when an attacker starts ophaning other blocks.. purposely.
 489 2012-03-18 11:55:29 <da2ce7> eg... at least the bitcoin client can show a warning:  such ash "Warning: none of the last 100 blocks were generated by any of the 'common miners'"
 490 2012-03-18 11:55:33 <da2ce7> *as
 491 2012-03-18 11:55:57 <sipa> i am not sure that's the responsability of a reference client
 492 2012-03-18 11:56:08 <sipa> (but maybe of alternative clients if they wish)
 493 2012-03-18 11:56:24 <ThomasV> yes, but the decision should remain with the human, not the clien
 494 2012-03-18 11:56:42 <ThomasV> (the decision of not following the longest chain in that case)
 495 2012-03-18 11:57:34 <da2ce7> sipa: I don't know the best way for miners to sign their blocks in a standard way... that isn't my expertise... but I do believe it would be a useful feature… even if the reference client chooses not to make use of it.
 496 2012-03-18 11:58:24 <sipa> some miners do put a 'signature' in their blocks' coinbases
 497 2012-03-18 11:58:41 <[Tycho]> Plain signature can be forged
 498 2012-03-18 11:58:45 <sipa> (just a marker text, not a signature in the cryptographic sense)
 499 2012-03-18 11:59:12 <sipa> an ecdsa signature requires at least 64 bytes
 500 2012-03-18 11:59:22 <[Tycho]> Sadly the coinbase TX doesn't allows more inputs, otherwise that would be very easy
 501 2012-03-18 11:59:27 <sipa> coinbase space is expensive
 502 2012-03-18 11:59:45 <[Tycho]> Just a 0 input from pool's address can work as a signature.
 503 2012-03-18 11:59:56 <da2ce7> well whatever way is best... it needs to be cyptographicaly secure.
 504 2012-03-18 12:02:48 <[Tycho]> I know some other simple methods, but that would require OOB communication and this is not cool.

 509 2012-03-18 12:04:18 <[Tycho]> Yes.
 510 2012-03-18 12:04:50 <sipa> I see no reason why, expect "it's already here, we don't need any other infrastructure."

 516 2012-03-18 12:05:43 <[Tycho]> Not in that meaning
 517 2012-03-18 12:05:57 <sipa> In what sense is it secure?
 518 2012-03-18 12:07:46 <sipa> Eventually you end up with TCP/IP encapsulated in embedded data of bitcoin transactions, and all network traffic ever is recorded in the block chain.
 519 2012-03-18 12:07:59 <sipa> (I exaggerate, but that's the ultimum)
 520 2012-03-18 12:07:59 <[Tycho]> Why ?
 521 2012-03-18 12:08:32 <sipa> You tell me :)
 522 2012-03-18 12:09:26 <sipa> My opinion is: the bitcoin p2p should not be used for anything that doesn't require validation by the network.
 523 2012-03-18 12:09:29 <sipa> *network
 524 2012-03-18 12:12:47 <vragnaroda> That's sensible.

 526 2012-03-18 12:13:55 <sipa> Did I develop such systems?

 532 2012-03-18 12:15:27 <sipa> It may be tempting to use it for other purposes, such as simplicity (we have communication with that P2P network anyway) or anonimity (I don't need to disclose the destination, he will receive it anyway in a broadcast network), but I believe better solutions are possible for both.
 533 2012-03-18 12:16:15 <TD> this is the meet-in-the-middle pubsub system>?

 584 2012-03-18 13:50:13 <kinlo> safe mode is disabling listtransactions, any way to bypass that?
 585 2012-03-18 13:50:24 <kinlo> running 0.6.0rc4 on testnet
 586 2012-03-18 13:52:43 <sipa> why are you in safe mode?
 587 2012-03-18 13:52:58 <kinlo> no idea
 588 2012-03-18 13:53:13 <sipa> how many blocks are you at?
 589 2012-03-18 13:53:15 <kinlo> just upgraded to 0.6.0rc4, started it, tried listtransactions and it refused
 590 2012-03-18 13:53:25 <kinlo> 47967
 591 2012-03-18 13:53:27 <sipa> does getinfo report an error?
 592 2012-03-18 13:53:30 <kinlo> yes
 593 2012-03-18 13:53:35 <sipa> oh, testnet
 594 2012-03-18 13:53:39 <kinlo> yes testnet :)
 595 2012-03-18 13:53:53 <sipa> yes, possible, people are still mining the old testnet chains
 596 2012-03-18 13:54:15 <sipa> if those are longer, the client switches to safe mode
 597 2012-03-18 13:54:17 <kinlo> I see blockexplorer is way ahaid of me
 598 2012-03-18 13:54:41 <kinlo> so, I just need to wait until my client uses the correct chain?
 599 2012-03-18 13:54:54 <kinlo> what's the number of blocks on the testnet on the "main" chain?
 600 2012-03-18 13:55:01 <kinlo> ie the chain I must be on with 0.6.x
 601 2012-03-18 13:56:22 <sipa> try -connect='ing to me? i have 49967 blocks
 602 2012-03-18 13:56:30 <sipa> 80.200.41.155
 603 2012-03-18 13:58:05 <kinlo> debug log is now full of errors so that must have done something
 604 2012-03-18 13:58:18 <kinlo> reorganize failed
 605 2012-03-18 13:58:19 <sipa> show me one
 606 2012-03-18 13:58:29 <sipa> can you paste some lines around that error?
 607 2012-03-18 13:59:01 <kinlo> http://pastebin.com/Y5gkk5GH
 608 2012-03-18 13:59:58 <kinlo> but as the number of blocks it goes back is increasing, doesn't that just mean he's busy orphaning all blocks that are invalid?
 609 2012-03-18 14:00:28 <sipa> no, your node received a chain which it considers invalid
 610 2012-03-18 14:00:37 <sipa> can you restart with -checkblocks ?
 611 2012-03-18 14:00:51 <kinlo> the number of Postponing reconnects is increasing
 612 2012-03-18 14:00:54 <kinlo> but I'll restart
 613 2012-03-18 14:01:00 <sipa> that's normal, it'll go up to 499
 614 2012-03-18 14:01:10 <sipa> but you can stop it
 615 2012-03-18 14:02:44 <kinlo> after restaring it with checkblocks it just continues with the same output

 622 2012-03-18 14:10:37 <kinlo> just compared the changes on 0.6, very nice, I can throw away most patches I apply to my bitcoin
 623 2012-03-18 14:10:53 <sipa> removeprivkey is
 624 2012-03-18 14:10:57 <sipa> quite dangerous

 626 2012-03-18 14:11:26 <kinlo> I never used it - but it looked like a normal addition to the other key management functions
 627 2012-03-18 14:11:47 <sipa> it's certainly useful in certain cases, but certainly in combination with people using the accounts feature it will almost certainly not do what you want

 750 2012-03-18 17:45:54 <andytoshi> Slix`: litecoin is an alternate blockchain that uses the scrypt hashing method for proof-of-work
 751 2012-03-18 17:46:09 <andytoshi> it is a much more difficult hash and does not give advantage to GPU's
 752 2012-03-18 17:46:25 <andytoshi> the goal is to improve decentralization by not requiring massive hardware setups to mine
 753 2012-03-18 17:46:56 <andytoshi> but OTOH, deliberately avoiding the use of specialized hardware, weakens the network power
 754 2012-03-18 17:46:57 freewil has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
 755 2012-03-18 17:47:21 <andytoshi> a further difference is that the blocks come more often (2.5 min IIRC, versus 10 minutes with bitcoin)
 756 2012-03-18 17:47:32 <andytoshi> so it may also be better-suited to quick transactions that do not need heavy security
 757 2012-03-18 17:47:58 <andytoshi> though IMHO 2.5 mins is still too long for most POS applications

 778 2012-03-18 18:22:22 <gmaxwell> tomoj: Yes, though the queried names run special nameservers that return known good nodes.  The only purpose of seeding is to find out some nodes when you known none, bootstrapping.
 779 2012-03-18 18:23:36 <gmaxwell> tomoj: Once you get one good node you can learn of more. There is also a set of a few hundred nodes baked into the software used as a last resort, but it falls out of date quickly, so if it depended only on that getting connected would take a long time.

 818 2012-03-18 20:43:09 <BlueMatt> there was discussion of making 0.6rc4 final before it was even built
 819 2012-03-18 20:43:16 <luke-jr> 947, 946, 936, 926, and it'd be nice to see 931 in

 821 2012-03-18 20:44:37 <BlueMatt> 947: ok, that wasnt there when it was built, and isnt a regression, but yea should go in; 946: doesnt matter in the slightest; 936: not a regression; 926: already merged a while ago; 931: meh
 822 2012-03-18 20:45:53 <luke-jr> s/926/928
 823 2012-03-18 20:46:23 <BlueMatt> the only issue I know of doesnt have a ticket and is another reorging large chains issue
 824 2012-03-18 20:46:40 <BlueMatt> 928: meh, not a regression
 825 2012-03-18 20:47:00 <luke-jr> non-regression bugs are important too :p
 826 2012-03-18 20:47:04 <BlueMatt> we've really been ignoring the regressions only rule for 0.6rcs because weve been in rc so long, but we are nearing the end, so...
 827 2012-03-18 20:47:13 <BlueMatt> I would really prefer to follow it a bit more
 828 2012-03-18 20:47:24 <luke-jr> no idea where you get that rule from

 832 2012-03-18 20:48:21 <BlueMatt> simple bugfixes and regressions was the idea
 833 2012-03-18 20:48:29 <BlueMatt> not complicated bugfixes unless they fix important bugs
 834 2012-03-18 20:48:39 <luke-jr> IIRC all those were simple

 841 2012-03-18 20:49:49 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: yeah, that's why I listed it on the end as a "nice to have"
 842 2012-03-18 20:49:50 <BlueMatt> 936 is additional features
 843 2012-03-18 20:49:59 <luke-jr> no, 936 is BIP compliance fix
 844 2012-03-18 20:50:08 <BlueMatt> thats not a bugfix
 845 2012-03-18 20:50:12 <BlueMatt> thats additional features
 846 2012-03-18 20:50:13 <Eliel> BlueMatt: because I don't know how to remove commits from a pullreq and I changed it :P

 864 2012-03-18 20:57:02 <Diablo-D3> he should already have upstream as a remote
 865 2012-03-18 20:57:23 <Diablo-D3> unless he github forked it and then cloned his own repo
 866 2012-03-18 20:57:36 <Eliel> Diablo-D3: yes, that's what I did.
 867 2012-03-18 20:57:42 <BlueMatt> which is what most people do
 868 2012-03-18 20:58:20 <Diablo-D3> I dunno, I havent been doing that lately
 869 2012-03-18 20:58:29 <Diablo-D3> Ive been doing natural github latel
 870 2012-03-18 20:59:10 <Diablo-D3> er
 871 2012-03-18 20:59:16 <Diablo-D3> Ive been doing natural git latel
 872 2012-03-18 20:59:51 <Diablo-D3> which is, ultimately, never commit into master, use cronjob to sync origin master (which is upstream) into local master
 873 2012-03-18 20:59:54 <Eliel> can I somehow throw the last 3 commits out, make the change again and then push?
 874 2012-03-18 21:00:03 <Eliel> luke-jr: that doesn't seem to work.
 875 2012-03-18 21:00:08 <Diablo-D3> and then only commit to my own branch (named develop)
 876 2012-03-18 21:00:19 <Diablo-D3> and since my repos are public, anyone can merge my changes
 877 2012-03-18 21:00:55 <Eliel> luke-jr: none of those commands changes anything it seems.

 880 2012-03-18 21:01:06 <Diablo-D3> like for example

 898 2012-03-18 21:08:31 <BlueMatt> 0.6.0rc4 only has two, so that would be helpful (though make sure you rebuild qt-win32 first)
 899 2012-03-18 21:09:04 <BlueMatt> qt-win32 isnt deterministic, but it actually doesnt turn out to matter because the bitcoin output is deterministic even with the variances in qt-win32 output

 966 2012-03-18 22:12:33 <freewil> deoxxa, you will want to create a unique address that you can use to link to a single transaction
 967 2012-03-18 22:12:42 <freewil> you can use the getnewaddress api call
 968 2012-03-18 22:12:57 <deoxxa> ah i see
 969 2012-03-18 22:13:17 <deoxxa> so i give the customer that address, then as soon as it hits a certain balance they get their product?

 971 2012-03-18 22:13:36 <deoxxa> that makes sense
 972 2012-03-18 22:13:42 <word> well, depending on what the product is
 973 2012-03-18 22:13:46 <freewil> deoxxa, right, but you want to wait until the transaction gets to a minimum confirmation number to prevent double-spending attacks
 974 2012-03-18 22:13:48 <word> you might want to wait for confirms
 975 2012-03-18 22:13:56 <freewil> which is usually 6
 976 2012-03-18 22:14:18 <deoxxa> it'd probably be something like a subscription service
 977 2012-03-18 22:14:22 <word> if it's a service like giving them access to something, as long as they can't hurt it, you could give access right away and just cut them off if the confirms don't pan out
 978 2012-03-18 22:14:24 <deoxxa> no physical goods
 979 2012-03-18 22:14:25 <deoxxa> yeah
 980 2012-03-18 22:14:29 <deoxxa> that's what i'm thinking

 982 2012-03-18 22:14:50 <deoxxa> how long does the first notification take generally?
 983 2012-03-18 22:14:53 17SAATCJI has joined
 984 2012-03-18 22:14:54 <word> but you'll want the process to be automated so you don't have to audit loads
 985 2012-03-18 22:15:15 <word> first notification?
 986 2012-03-18 22:15:24 <deoxxa> well, first confirmation thing
 987 2012-03-18 22:15:45 <deoxxa> how long after them sending sweet, sweet BC do i first find out?
 988 2012-03-18 22:15:47 <word> well blocks happen around every 10 minutes
 989 2012-03-18 22:15:59 <deoxxa> ah cool
 990 2012-03-18 22:16:03 <word> but i think you get notified of transactions sooner
 991 2012-03-18 22:16:07 <sipa> the transaction should appear almost instantly (seconds)
 992 2012-03-18 22:16:08 <freewil> you should receive the transaction almost instantly with 0 confirms
 993 2012-03-18 22:16:09 <deoxxa> oh even better
 994 2012-03-18 22:16:18 <deoxxa> that works well then
 995 2012-03-18 22:16:20 <sipa> but for various reasons, that can fail
 996 2012-03-18 22:16:31 <sipa> you will certainly get it at its first confirmation
 997 2012-03-18 22:16:43 <sipa> which should be within the hour but often sooner
 998 2012-03-18 22:16:56 <sipa> after that, one extra confirmation per on average 10 minutes
 999 2012-03-18 22:17:02 <sipa> until infinity
1000 2012-03-18 22:18:01 <word> idk if this will work right for a subscription service, but opencart has an extension to use bitpay so it'd just be another payment method
1001 2012-03-18 22:18:38 <word> the point being, look around before you start writing code to make sure you don't reinvent the wheel. :)

1006 2012-03-18 22:23:07 <deoxxa> how do i test bitcoin transactions?
1007 2012-03-18 22:23:48 <word> test?
1008 2012-03-18 22:24:28 <Graet> send bitcoins to me :)
1009 2012-03-18 22:24:47 <Graet> i'll confirm for you that it works :)
1010 2012-03-18 22:24:48 <luke-jr> deoxxa: -tesntet
1011 2012-03-18 22:24:50 <luke-jr> -testnet *
1012 2012-03-18 22:24:58 <deoxxa> well, testing this not-quite-a-thing web service
1013 2012-03-18 22:25:19 <Graet> ahh ok
1014 2012-03-18 22:25:32 <dwon> So I just read BIP 30: "Blocks are not allowed to contain a transaction whose identifier matches that of an earlier, not-fully-spent transaction in the same chain. "
1015 2012-03-18 22:25:58 <dwon> Why not just say that blocks are not allowed to have the same coinbase as a previous block?  Then you wouldn't impose additional storage requirements.
1016 2012-03-18 22:26:49 <dwon> are there duplicate coinbases in the block chain already?
1017 2012-03-18 22:26:51 <sipa> dwon: it would require keeping all coinbases forever
1018 2012-03-18 22:27:04 <sipa> dwon: which is reasonable, but unnecessary
1019 2012-03-18 22:27:24 <luke-jr> sipa: well, to be fair, it *could* have specified "coinbases only"
1020 2012-03-18 22:27:39 <sipa> luke-jr: no need for a special case
1021 2012-03-18 22:27:44 <dwon> sipa: I think it's more likely that more unspent transactions will hang around than coinbases.
1022 2012-03-18 22:28:07 <dwon> actually I could *make* a bunch of low-value unspent transactions right now, forcing everyone to keep these around forever.
1023 2012-03-18 22:28:09 <sipa> this way it also protect against derived transactions from existing duplicate coinbases with 0 effort
1024 2012-03-18 22:28:14 <dwon> at least, if it was coinbases, I'd need hashing power
1025 2012-03-18 22:28:53 <sipa> dwon: sure, but the priority here was a solution that was easy to implement, so that it would be uncontroversial and a fast upgrade was possible
1026 2012-03-18 22:28:57 <sipa> i believe that succeeded
1027 2012-03-18 22:29:39 <luke-jr> sipa: it's impossible to make derived txns from existing dupes
1028 2012-03-18 22:30:09 <sipa> how so?
1029 2012-03-18 22:30:18 <sipa> (are they all spent?)
1030 2012-03-18 22:30:25 <dwon> sipa: I don't really buy that excuse.  The TLS renegotiation vulnerability was far worse than this, and the solution still wasn't rushed.
1031 2012-03-18 22:31:14 Dyaheon has joined
1032 2012-03-18 22:32:35 <sipa> dwon: so, your argument is that disallowing duplicate coinbases would also solve the problem? sure, but BIP30 is easier to implement and protects against more
1033 2012-03-18 22:33:41 <dwon> my argument is that coinbases can't be created at arbitrary rates by an attacker, unlike unspent transactions
1034 2012-03-18 22:33:46 <gmaxwell> Attn Windows Bitcoin GUI users: There is a potential security hole fixed by 0.5.3.1 / 0.6.0rc4. PLEASE UPGRADE. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=69120.0
1035 2012-03-18 22:34:07 <sipa> dwon: yes, i never argued with that, but why does that matter?
1036 2012-03-18 22:34:07 <luke-jr> sipa: because once the txn is replaced by a dupe, it can't be used as an input
1037 2012-03-18 22:35:01 <sipa> luke-jr: it could be, and then rolled back; but that would require a rollback to a point before the dupe was mined, which is indeed for all practical purposes impossible
1038 2012-03-18 22:35:07 <sipa> so yes, that is not a very strong argument
1039 2012-03-18 22:35:15 <sipa> still, i prefer the simplicity of the patch

1041 2012-03-18 22:36:41 <dwon> ... "the simplicity of the patch".  The thing that disturbs me the most is that a lot of people in here seem to think of the Satoshi bitcoind and the bitcoin protocol as the same thing.
1042 2012-03-18 22:37:08 <sipa> it is currently the only fully-validating client i know of
1043 2012-03-18 22:37:29 <sipa> and this is a change that only affects fully validating clients

1046 2012-03-18 22:38:25 <sipa> by the way, there is another proposal as well, to include the block height in the coinbase, as a protocol rule; implicitly guaranteeing uniqueness
1047 2012-03-18 22:38:32 17SAATCJI is now known as h4ckm3
1048 2012-03-18 22:38:54 <sipa> but that would be harder to roll out quickly, as people use coinbases for various things already
1049 2012-03-18 22:39:08 <dwon> sipa: That really would be the best thing.  Is it likely to happen?
1050 2012-03-18 22:39:12 <sipa> yes
1051 2012-03-18 22:39:16 <sipa> but not immediately
1052 2012-03-18 22:39:24 <dwon> Ah, okay, so BIP 30 could become a moot point when it does.
1053 2012-03-18 22:39:50 <sipa> indeed
1054 2012-03-18 22:40:06 <dwon> ok, I'm done whining, then. :)
