  21 2012-04-01 00:13:47 <joehallofame> I uploaded 6.0 but it still does it.  If I type an incorrect password it says so, but if I type the correct one it crashes.

  56 2012-04-01 00:41:55 <gmaxwell> da2ce7: tragidy of the commonsbit you mean?
  57 2012-04-01 00:42:14 <gmaxwell> Firstbit is horrific trash, which has added megabytes of useless bloat to the blockchain.
  58 2012-04-01 00:43:05 Sedra has joined
  59 2012-04-01 00:43:15 <gmaxwell> Some geniuses went and firstbit registered thousands and thousands of names from /usr/dict/words — so all of the short good ones are taken by them now, and worse, if you use an address which has one of those as a prefix your funds may be misdirected.
  60 2012-04-01 00:43:46 <sipa> firstbit encourages static addresses, and blockchain bloat
  61 2012-04-01 00:44:01 <Joric> why bloat?
  62 2012-04-01 00:44:09 <joehallofame> gmaxwell?  now that Ive read that I am even more depressed.  is there anyway to get my coins outta my wallet now?  It seems like that guy tried everything.  I don't know how to do any of that.
  63 2012-04-01 00:44:24 <da2ce7> well it is usefull for not typing out an entire bitcoin addrsss.
  64 2012-04-01 00:44:29 <da2ce7> *addresss.
  65 2012-04-01 00:44:37 <da2ce7> and making small qr codes.
  66 2012-04-01 00:44:43 <Joric> what firstbit has added to the blockchain i don't get it
  67 2012-04-01 00:44:44 <gmaxwell> e.g. your get 1Bobby72 but 1Bobby[Nz038].. is someone elses firstbits.. and someone sends coins to you but uses 1Bobby not realizing the 72 matters and they go to one of the dictionary spammers.
  68 2012-04-01 00:45:08 <gmaxwell> Joric: many megabytes of people 'preregistering' names.
  69 2012-04-01 00:45:29 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: It's very likely recoverable, but perhaps not trivally. First. Do you have any backups of your wallet?
  70 2012-04-01 00:45:38 <joehallofame> nope
  71 2012-04-01 00:45:43 <Joric> vanitygen should be much, much worse then
  72 2012-04-01 00:46:15 <sipa> da2ce7: it is wrong that people are typing in random addresses at all
  73 2012-04-01 00:46:15 <gmaxwell> Joric: ... no. Er, what you're saying makes no sense to me, perhaps I misunderstand you.
  74 2012-04-01 00:46:33 <sipa> it should be URLs, or email-addresses, or clicking on a link, or downloading a file
  75 2012-04-01 00:46:45 <da2ce7> well even with the massive ammounts of spam, a first-bits address is much more happly typed by hand than a full bitcoin address.
  76 2012-04-01 00:46:55 <sipa> it should not be any random, and certainly not static, string of characters
  77 2012-04-01 00:47:06 <sipa> not short or long

  80 2012-04-01 00:47:50 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: it's good you made a backup, though it's probably not that helpful if it's after the problem.

  82 2012-04-01 00:48:02 <sipa> joehallofame: there are wallet recovery tools
  83 2012-04-01 00:49:51 <joehallofame> sipa: where can I find them.  I read https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/955 are those what he used?
  84 2012-04-01 00:49:59 <sipa> Joric: people generated thousands of addresses whose firstbits were short words, and sent microtransactions to them
  85 2012-04-01 00:50:18 <sipa> Joric: unprunable, unusable, simply for the sake of having them registered
  86 2012-04-01 00:52:18 <gmaxwell> ...Making both firstbits less useful: all the good short ones taken, more risk of misdirection on long ones with their prefixes registered, and sticking everyone else with more data to carry around.
  87 2012-04-01 00:53:31 <Joric> sipa, doesn't that work for vanitygen as well
  88 2012-04-01 00:53:45 <sipa> Joric: ?
  89 2012-04-01 00:53:50 <gmaxwell> No.
  90 2012-04-01 00:54:04 <gmaxwell> .... what do you think vanitygen does?
  91 2012-04-01 00:54:11 <sipa> Joric: i have no problem with people generating thousands of addresses
  92 2012-04-01 00:54:14 <sipa> not even billions
  93 2012-04-01 00:54:21 <Joric> 'people generating thousands of addresses simply for sake of having them registered'
  94 2012-04-01 00:54:23 <sipa> i have a problem with them creating transactions
  95 2012-04-01 00:54:41 <gmaxwell> Joric: there is no "registration" with anything but firstbits.
  96 2012-04-01 00:54:55 <sipa> simply for the sake of those addresses being present in the block chain first
  97 2012-04-01 00:55:39 <Joric> first thing i've done with a vanity address i send 0.01 btc to it

 100 2012-04-01 00:56:09 <gmaxwell> That serves absolutely zero purpose.
 101 2012-04-01 00:56:18 <joehallofame> gmaxwell: About my problem on that link::  gavinandresen commented 5 days ago Consensus is this is a "we don't know how it happened but somehow the bits on your disk are not what they should be" problem that we can't reproduce.  I moved the priority from high to medium, and removed the 0.6.0 milestone from this issue, but I think the only fix for problems like these will be a much better scheme for backing up and restoring
 102 2012-04-01 00:56:26 <Joric> to get to the blockexplorer
 103 2012-04-01 00:57:02 <gmaxwell> Joric: for what purpose? In any case, thats a bit of foolishness that most people don't engage in fortunately.
 104 2012-04-01 00:57:21 <joehallofame> I guess what Im asking is am I screwed?
 105 2012-04-01 00:57:26 <sipa> Joric: all this says to me is that people want a way to register addresses somewhere; fine, but don't use the block chain for having BBE function as that registration
 106 2012-04-01 00:57:32 <Joric> i don't get why firstbits is any better than blockexplorer
 107 2012-04-01 00:57:41 <sipa> Joric: ?
 108 2012-04-01 00:58:19 <sipa> there's no difference; both are just using the block chain to register an address as something more manageable
 109 2012-04-01 00:58:31 <gmaxwell> sipa: blockexplorer doesn't do that
 110 2012-04-01 00:58:34 <gmaxwell> (AFAIK)
 111 2012-04-01 00:58:43 <Joric> i mean confirming that the address is real
 112 2012-04-01 00:58:44 <sipa> you can search for a prefix of an address
 113 2012-04-01 00:58:47 <gmaxwell> The search doesn't return on address subtrings.
 114 2012-04-01 00:59:10 <Joric> it does, for 6-char prefixes
 115 2012-04-01 00:59:15 <gmaxwell> Joric: You can tell if an address is real by checking the checksum.
 116 2012-04-01 01:00:01 <Joric> i just got lucky i didn't give a fuck about firstbits
 117 2012-04-01 01:02:40 <MC1984> any p2sh txn yet?

 121 2012-04-01 01:06:25 <gmaxwell> sipa: hm. relaying v6 addresses when you don't speak it yourself sort of invites people to announce the whole ipv6 routable internet.
 122 2012-04-01 01:06:50 <joehallofame> Im sorry for being impolite and asking again, but I tried some passwords and now when I use the right one my wallet closes out.  Did I just lose a lot of money, or do I wait for another new version to come out (just uploaded 6.0 and my problems came with it) Should I try a wallet recovery like sipa suggested?  It seemed like the link gmax sent someone tried that and he gave.  Or hopefully it's on a timer thing and I can sen
 123 2012-04-01 01:07:52 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: what version were you running before?
 124 2012-04-01 01:07:58 <sipa> gmaxwell: i know - but the alternative is getting a completely separate ipv6 network
 125 2012-04-01 01:08:08 <joehallofame> 5.0
 126 2012-04-01 01:08:10 <sipa> which will at least initially have difficulty finding pears
 127 2012-04-01 01:08:52 <joehallofame> could I try 5.3.1
 128 2012-04-01 01:09:52 <sipa> gmaxwell: i was wondering about having a reduced chance (like 5%) of accepting/relaying an ipv6 address if you don't support it yourself
 129 2012-04-01 01:10:04 <sipa> or a rate limit, maybe
 130 2012-04-01 01:10:11 <gmaxwell> erp. Where is the 0.5.4 download?
 131 2012-04-01 01:10:21 <sipa> gmaxwell: 0.5.4 is not released afaik

 148 2012-04-01 01:44:31 <gmaxwell> sipa: I guess it should prioritize relaying nodes it has connected to.. and just limit the number of v6 addresses it relays.

 188 2012-04-01 03:37:21 <splatster> luke-jr: Could this cause a fork?
 189 2012-04-01 03:37:24 <Graet> ars just got a block
 190 2012-04-01 03:37:31 <luke-jr> splatster: it will.
 191 2012-04-01 03:37:31 <gmaxwell> splatster: define fork?
 192 2012-04-01 03:37:53 <Graet> not on blockchain.info
 193 2012-04-01 03:38:18 <gmaxwell> splatster: So normally I'd reserver 'fork' for an irreconcilable difference. In this case, it will just cause non-bip16 nodes to get orphaned
 194 2012-04-01 03:38:29 <gmaxwell> (but they won't build an alternative chain of any length)
 195 2012-04-01 03:38:35 Hasbro has joined
 196 2012-04-01 03:38:39 <splatster> i.e. One pool starts a split in the chain.
 197 2012-04-01 03:39:01 <gmaxwell> splatster: well those kind of forks happen every day.
 198 2012-04-01 03:39:54 <gmaxwell> Graet: I wonder if blockchain.info runs bip16 nodes and thus aren't displaying bip16 invalid blocks.
 199 2012-04-01 03:40:30 <Graet> unsure gmaxwell , just noticed ars announced a block and looked at blockchain.info
 200 2012-04-01 03:40:46 <gmaxwell> any idea what height that block is?
 201 2012-04-01 03:40:51 <splatster> Shouldn't BIP16 support already be active? (I don't know what time zone bitcoind uses)
 202 2012-04-01 03:41:10 <MC1984> unix
 203 2012-04-01 03:41:11 <gmaxwell> splatster: yes. I don't understand why you ask?
 204 2012-04-01 03:41:25 <Graet> <ArsBlock> >>>> New Block Number 173818 is Ars!
 205 2012-04-01 03:41:25 <forsetifox> 173818
 206 2012-04-01 03:41:32 <splatster> http://blockchain.info/block-index/201844/00000000000008a5097526239afca1d59e6e112aca135ab7dd5189b5fe9f0696
 207 2012-04-01 03:41:44 <Graet> hmm it is there, older than i thought
 208 2012-04-01 03:42:24 <gmaxwell> hey, neat I have a node that is behind.
 209 2012-04-01 03:42:36 <splatster> Where is the p2sh TX? (if I am to understand that there is such a TX in there)
 210 2012-04-01 03:42:59 <gmaxwell> ah.
 211 2012-04-01 03:43:08 <gmaxwell> splatster: huh?
 212 2012-04-01 03:43:16 <splatster> ah nvm
 213 2012-04-01 03:43:21 <gmaxwell> P2SH tx are completely compatible with old nodes.
 214 2012-04-01 03:43:36 * splatster shuts up
 215 2012-04-01 03:44:24 <gmaxwell> hm. I had a node crash.
 216 2012-04-01 03:44:45 <gmaxwell> 04/01/12 01:43:19 trying connection 188.40.93.82:8333 lastseen=-342567.9hrs

 222 2012-04-01 03:50:28 <gmaxwell> and it can't recover from that either.. pretty sweet.
 223 2012-04-01 03:51:51 <luke-jr> so Ars's last was invalid or not?
 224 2012-04-01 03:52:14 <forsetifox> It was a long block, I think?
 225 2012-04-01 03:53:21 <[Tycho]> What 173694 is doing here ? https://blockchain.info/orphaned-blocks
 226 2012-04-01 03:54:09 <TuxBlackEdo> who runs blockchain.info?
 227 2012-04-01 03:54:23 <[Tycho]> puik
 228 2012-04-01 03:55:06 <TuxBlackEdo> piuk
 229 2012-04-01 03:55:19 <[Tycho]> Yes, something like that
 230 2012-04-01 03:55:19 <luke-jr> puke
 231 2012-04-01 03:55:40 <splatster> Look at the orphans at 170059 on that page
 232 2012-04-01 03:56:21 <[Tycho]> Yes, it was first BIP16 show
 233 2012-04-01 03:57:37 <splatster> Ah, so that set of orphans was caused by adoption, or lack thereof, of BIP16?
 234 2012-04-01 03:57:51 <[Tycho]> Yes
 235 2012-04-01 03:58:34 <MC1984> fuck 1700062 was 3 orphans at once
 236 2012-04-01 03:58:50 <luke-jr> 1700060 looks suspicious
 237 2012-04-01 03:59:06 <luke-jr> why is Donate@Home's a whole 5 days later?
 238 2012-04-01 03:59:20 <splatster> Weird...
 239 2012-04-01 03:59:31 <luke-jr> …wt
 240 2012-04-01 03:59:32 <luke-jr> f
 241 2012-04-01 03:59:37 <luke-jr> 170061…
 242 2012-04-01 03:59:38 <gmaxwell> luke-jr: because it was stuck on a fork.
 243 2012-04-01 03:59:45 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: how?
 244 2012-04-01 04:00:05 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: old miners should accept the new blocks
 245 2012-04-01 04:00:21 <gmaxwell> chain screwed up from running 0.6.0rc1 at the time of the early broken p2sh txn.
 246 2012-04-01 04:00:27 <luke-jr> also, why did Donate@Home's 170061 build on EclipseMC's 170060, and vice-versa?
 247 2012-04-01 04:00:52 <gmaxwell> luke-jr: there were nodes running old git code that switch on p2sh at the original date. They formed a fork.
 248 2012-04-01 04:01:07 <gmaxwell> (and the p2sh enforcing side can't reorg onto the longer 'invalid' chain)
 249 2012-04-01 04:01:15 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: yes, ok. but why would PoolA and PoolB build on competitors' forks?:
 250 2012-04-01 04:01:41 <gmaxwell> I don't understand your confusion.
 251 2012-04-01 04:02:03 <luke-jr> Donate@Home built on EclipseMC's fork, and EclipseMC built on Donate@Home's fork…
 252 2012-04-01 04:02:04 <gmaxwell> There was a fork created by nodes that enforced p2sh too early when someone mined an invalid p2sh txn (I assumed it was you, actually!)
 253 2012-04-01 04:02:24 <luke-jr> no, that wasn't me
 254 2012-04-01 04:02:39 <gmaxwell> oh, multiple nodes?
 255 2012-04-01 04:02:52 <luke-jr> i c, maybe
 256 2012-04-01 04:02:53 <splatster> 7 orphans between 170060, 170061, and 170062.
 257 2012-04-01 04:02:56 <luke-jr> still a weird thing
 258 2012-04-01 04:03:18 <gmaxwell> splatster: sure, it grew for a while.
 259 2012-04-01 04:05:22 <k9quaint> clearly, it was a nefarious plot to take over the world
 260 2012-04-01 04:05:25 <MC1984> wait so single orphan blocks happen quite regularly
 261 2012-04-01 04:05:32 <gmaxwell> MC1984: sure.
 262 2012-04-01 04:05:35 <luke-jr> yes
 263 2012-04-01 04:05:39 <MC1984> isnt that bad
 264 2012-04-01 04:05:40 <splatster> MC1984: yup
 265 2012-04-01 04:05:44 <splatster> no
 266 2012-04-01 04:05:46 <gmaxwell> it's about 1% of all blocks generated or so.
 267 2012-04-01 04:06:23 <luke-jr> MC1984: the 10 minute avg was chosen to balance orphan rate with convenience
 268 2012-04-01 04:06:31 <gmaxwell> MC1984: unless you've gone and invented faster than light communication while we were gabbing, there is no preventing of it.
 269 2012-04-01 04:06:31 <MC1984> is it to do with block propagation times
 270 2012-04-01 04:07:06 <MC1984> ok so if block time was cut to 5 mins, would orphans increase linerarly or more
 271 2012-04-01 04:07:22 <gmaxwell> More.
 272 2012-04-01 04:07:23 <MC1984> i think more?
 273 2012-04-01 04:07:50 <MC1984> hm i wonder what the true optimal block time is
 274 2012-04-01 04:08:04 <luke-jr> 10 mins :P
 275 2012-04-01 04:08:15 <gmaxwell> Orphan rate is related to 1-e^(-1/block_time*propagation_delay).
 276 2012-04-01 04:08:40 <MC1984> yeah didnt satoshi just decide on 10 mins though
 277 2012-04-01 04:08:43 <luke-jr> or rather, de timtons (about 11 mins 15 secs)
 278 2012-04-01 04:08:50 <MC1984> not like he ran simulations
 279 2012-04-01 04:08:57 <gmaxwell> He almost certantly did.
 280 2012-04-01 04:09:01 <gmaxwell> (run simulations)
 281 2012-04-01 04:09:03 <MC1984> wat
 282 2012-04-01 04:09:08 <luke-jr> MC1984: don't need to simulate when you can calculate
 283 2012-04-01 04:09:15 <gmaxwell> Considering there is simulation code in the bitcoin paper for block race probabilities!
 284 2012-04-01 04:09:27 <gmaxwell> (well, right)
 285 2012-04-01 04:09:44 <luke-jr> heh, otoh sometimes simulation is actually easier too :p
 286 2012-04-01 04:10:23 <MC1984> so 10 mins even really is mathematically optimal
 287 2012-04-01 04:10:44 <gmaxwell> luke-jr: I like to solve things both via numerical methods/simulation and analytically, and then see if they agree. :)
 288 2012-04-01 04:10:47 <luke-jr> I still think 11m15s would be better, but 10m is close enough <.<
 289 2012-04-01 04:10:55 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: smart!
 290 2012-04-01 04:12:07 <gmaxwell> MC1984: it's a tradeoff. There isn't really any single optimal value unless you first assume some preference for first confirmation speed vs orphaned blocks.
 291 2012-04-01 04:13:10 <gmaxwell> and propation time will go up as bitcoin grows.
 292 2012-04-01 04:13:47 <gmaxwell> (because to propagate you must validate, and as traffic increases it will take more work to validate... and the speed of light isn't getting any faster to offset that :))
 293 2012-04-01 04:13:49 <MC1984> propagation is pretty dumb right
 294 2012-04-01 04:13:52 <luke-jr> not so long as I know Deepbit's node IPs
 295 2012-04-01 04:14:08 <gmaxwell> luke-jr: well, even there they validate on ingress.
 296 2012-04-01 04:14:12 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: … not including txns will offset that
 297 2012-04-01 04:14:17 <MC1984> they all just blab every block they see to every other node they know about
 298 2012-04-01 04:14:44 <gmaxwell> MC1984: it's smarter than just that.
 299 2012-04-01 04:15:18 <gmaxwell> It tells them about it, but it only gives them the hash. Then nodes pull blocks by hash from the first neighbor to tell them about them.
 300 2012-04-01 04:15:26 <gmaxwell> So the flooding takes fairly little bandwidth.
 301 2012-04-01 04:16:03 <MC1984> well thats rather more efficient
 302 2012-04-01 04:16:21 <MC1984> but propagation is still basically a cascade right
 303 2012-04-01 04:16:52 <splatster> Why doesn't someone create a node to which all the pools connect so as to increase propagation among the mining pools?
 304 2012-04-01 04:17:17 <gmaxwell> splatster: because mining pool operators mostly don't care.
 305 2012-04-01 04:17:28 <gmaxwell> (otherwise they could just share IPs and peer directly with each other)
 306 2012-04-01 04:17:53 <splatster> But wouldn't they want to prevent creating orphan blocks themselves?
 307 2012-04-01 04:17:55 <MC1984> yeah id rather not have a cabal of pool ops
 308 2012-04-01 04:18:40 <gmaxwell> splatster: there still will be orphan blocks.
 309 2012-04-01 04:18:53 <splatster> But there would be less, no?
 310 2012-04-01 04:18:59 <gmaxwell> Probably not measurably so.
 311 2012-04-01 04:19:07 <splatster> hmm, okay
 312 2012-04-01 04:19:36 <gmaxwell> Speed of light/networks is more of a factor.. keep in mind.. the bitcoin network nodes are order 8 plus.
 313 2012-04-01 04:19:46 <splatster> I'm sure deepbit could care less about orphans seeing as how many blocks they mine a day.
 314 2012-04-01 04:20:06 <gmaxwell> average path-length in a order 8 randomly wired network..
 315 2012-04-01 04:22:07 <MC1984> is it randomly wired?
 316 2012-04-01 04:22:20 <MC1984> early internet was moreso i think
 317 2012-04-01 04:22:50 <MC1984> but theres only a handful of tier 1 carriers now and it goes from there
 318 2012-04-01 04:23:01 <splatster> Couldn't someone effectively flush out a pool by filling up all it's connections with malicious nodes? (i.e nodes that give it false information)

 321 2012-04-01 04:24:09 <gmaxwell> splatster: no.
 322 2012-04-01 04:24:25 <gmaxwell> splatster: input and output are seperate and nodes always connect out too.
 323 2012-04-01 04:24:41 <gmaxwell> also, a sane pool will operate multiple nodes, and the ones that actually mine only connect out.
 324 2012-04-01 04:25:27 <gmaxwell> Heck my p2pool operation involves four nodes.  (two mining nodes which only connect to my own nodes and a couple carefully vetted known pulls, and two public nodes)
 325 2012-04-01 04:26:14 <MC1984> why you vet nodes
 326 2012-04-01 04:26:22 <MC1984> isnt it spose to be zero trust
 327 2012-04-01 04:26:25 <MC1984> thats the point
 328 2012-04-01 04:27:12 <gmaxwell> MC1984: because I don't want them DOS attacking my performance sensitive nodes.
 329 2012-04-01 04:28:33 <MC1984> why would someone dos a bitcoain dev
 330 2012-04-01 04:28:36 <MC1984> haters gonna hate
 331 2012-04-01 04:29:08 <gmaxwell> MC1984: there is a lot of freaky stuff out there.
 332 2012-04-01 04:29:39 <MC1984> saying that why arnt exchanges and pools constantly dossing each other out of existence
 333 2012-04-01 04:31:24 <gmaxwell> Why would that? Most acctacky things I've seen mostly just seem to be idiots screwing around... e.g. trying to build nodes to spy on the network and connecting to me a zillion times and such.
 334 2012-04-01 04:31:55 <MC1984> take out the competition
 335 2012-04-01 04:32:04 <forsetifox> BTCE is charging 1 US cent to post a message in chat now. LOLz
 336 2012-04-01 04:32:15 <MC1984> its like asking why does one company lobby the govt to kill a competitor
 337 2012-04-01 04:32:17 <[Tycho]> What chat ?
 338 2012-04-01 04:32:25 <forsetifox> BTCE's chat.

 340 2012-04-01 04:32:31 <gmaxwell> hahah
 341 2012-04-01 04:32:35 <[Tycho]> Never hear about it.
 342 2012-04-01 04:32:36 <forsetifox> Good for them.

 344 2012-04-01 04:32:47 <MC1984> wat?
 345 2012-04-01 04:32:56 <gmaxwell> BTCE chat is like youtube comments most of the time.
 346 2012-04-01 04:33:01 <forsetifox> Yeah.
 347 2012-04-01 04:33:11 <forsetifox> Trolls or just people chatting about whatever.

 349 2012-04-01 04:33:53 <[Tycho]> Also I wonder why btcex exchange is still used after all that story.
 350 2012-04-01 04:35:17 <forsetifox> What story?
 351 2012-04-01 04:35:38 <[Tycho]> The owner of btcex stole all his user's bitcoins.
 352 2012-04-01 04:35:47 <gmaxwell> wha?
 353 2012-04-01 04:36:17 <forsetifox> I think dev is screwing around with the chatters. =P
 354 2012-04-01 04:36:21 <[Tycho]> It's a russian exchange, so that may be the cause why people don't know about it.
 355 2012-04-01 04:36:35 <[Tycho]> About the story, I mean.
 356 2012-04-01 04:36:47 <gmaxwell> crazy!
 357 2012-04-01 04:37:00 <gmaxwell> well, it's is (was?) the biggest exchange for litecoin.
 358 2012-04-01 04:37:05 <jgarzik> btcex owner was crazy in a number of ways
 359 2012-04-01 04:38:02 <[Tycho]> Popular opinion is that before the bubble peak he exchanged all the BTCs for USD, expecting BTC rate to crash soon, but instead the bubble happened and he wasn't able to exchange everything back.
 360 2012-04-01 04:38:53 <[Tycho]> He also locked all the real-money accounts, but that was mostly solved later.
 361 2012-04-01 04:42:58 <[Tycho]> May be it's because they allow LRUSD withdraws, but I'm not sure about that.

 376 2012-04-01 05:20:49 <forsetifox> Heh.

 380 2012-04-01 05:30:47 <[Tycho]> p2pool just got orphaned. I wonder why...
 381 2012-04-01 05:31:18 <gmaxwell> because it was late.
 382 2012-04-01 05:31:30 <[Tycho]> And 50BTC block is not p2sh
 383 2012-04-01 05:31:42 <[Tycho]> Why no one is sending funny p2sh TXes ?
 384 2012-04-01 05:31:58 <gmaxwell> Yes sure, the p2pool block hit my nodes a good 30 seconds or so after the tying block.
 385 2012-04-01 05:32:29 <[Tycho]> p2sh block is 1tx one somehow :)
 386 2012-04-01 05:32:32 <gmaxwell> [Tycho]: because that wouldn't make enough trouble.. better to wait a few days before doing it then the people that get hit won't make the connection as to why their blocks are being orphaned.

 394 2012-04-01 05:39:42 <forrestv> control what?
 395 2012-04-01 05:40:21 <gmaxwell> The orphaning of blocks.

 397 2012-04-01 05:49:45 <forrestv> forsetifox, all i control is p2pool's implementation, and p2pool does close to the best it can to not get blocks orphaned (which really just means sending them to bitcoind as soon as they are received from the miner)
 398 2012-04-01 05:52:41 <forsetifox> So who changes P2Pool to accept BIP30 stuff then?
 399 2012-04-01 05:57:36 <gmaxwell> forsetifox: ... there is no change to p2pool for BIP30.
 400 2012-04-01 05:58:43 <forsetifox> Could've sworn someone in here said BIP30 was going to kill p2pool.
 401 2012-04-01 05:59:58 <gmaxwell> People say things ... they're not always right.

 496 2012-04-01 09:54:50 <midnightmagic> removing them from the network would require that all participating nodes reject connectivity with the others.
 497 2012-04-01 09:55:49 <Cory> Just broadcast invalid spends of BIP16 and they won't be able to contribute.
 498 2012-04-01 09:56:07 <midnightmagic> that is actively destructive, and a disproportionate response.
 499 2012-04-01 09:56:17 <midnightmagic> why douby screw them?

 501 2012-04-01 09:56:47 <Cory> Heh, I'm not advocating it. Just making sure it would be as easy as I thought.

 503 2012-04-01 09:57:42 <Cory> Can we estimate the percentage that actually support BIP16 (not necessarily report their support)?

 505 2012-04-01 09:58:31 <midnightmagic> not by my understanding.
 506 2012-04-01 09:59:25 <midnightmagic> perhaps detect complaints and estimate complaints:no complaints ratio?

 512 2012-04-01 10:04:24 <sipa> 0.7 will probably have an option to load a blockchain from a local blk0001.dat file, and rebuild the index from there

 586 2012-04-01 14:07:05 <kinlo> poison?
 587 2012-04-01 14:07:25 <kinlo> you mean a bip17 one, to see if the blockchain splits?
 588 2012-04-01 14:07:33 <sipa> bip16
 589 2012-04-01 14:09:20 <kinlo> right
 590 2012-04-01 14:09:28 <kinlo> still need to upgrade one wallet :/
 591 2012-04-01 14:09:42 <sipa> one wallet, or one installation?
 592 2012-04-01 14:10:02 <kinlo> one binary, which operates on one wallet
 593 2012-04-01 14:10:24 <kinlo> but it isn't used for mining so I still have some time

 674 2012-04-01 17:26:17 <Samuel> yeah, I haven't checked in here in a while
 675 2012-04-01 17:26:41 <Samuel> How is the design of the app coming along?
 676 2012-04-01 17:27:02 <sipa> haven't seen many updates from tcatm anymore
 677 2012-04-01 17:27:13 <Samuel> Oh... hmm
 678 2012-04-01 17:27:17 <sipa> 0.6 has been released in the mean time
 679 2012-04-01 17:27:55 <Samuel> Oh really? Any design changes?

 682 2012-04-01 17:28:52 <sipa> No, we were already doing 0.6 release candidates when you and tcatm starting redesigning.
 683 2012-04-01 17:29:00 <user_> sipa: what do you think of my last commeent here: https://gist.github.com/830ca16758fb9ad496d7#comments
 684 2012-04-01 17:29:41 <Cryo> ooh, I missed that 0.6.0 was released
 685 2012-04-01 17:30:05 <sipa> user_: i should read the rest of the document first :)
 686 2012-04-01 17:30:37 <Cryo> client should compel people to upgrade

 692 2012-04-01 17:32:36 <Samuel> Question: Why is the delete button even there if  you can't delete receiving addresses?
 693 2012-04-01 17:32:38 <Cryo> checks a url on start up and compares version #
 694 2012-04-01 17:33:58 <sipa> Cryo: checking a url implies a central authority
 695 2012-04-01 17:34:09 <sipa> which can be hacked, ...

 703 2012-04-01 17:35:46 <sipa> Cryo: true, but if bitcoin.org got hacked, and we would notice after an hour, probably not too many people will have the bad version
 704 2012-04-01 17:36:04 <Samuel> Ahh, cool. But shouldn't the icon be white when the tab is selected?
 705 2012-04-01 17:36:38 <sipa> Cryo: if an autoupdate system was infected, a very significant percentage of network nodes may be affected
 706 2012-04-01 17:37:23 <Cryo> still sounds strawman
 707 2012-04-01 17:37:24 <user_> tcatm: samuel: i think the btc numbers should be green
 708 2012-04-01 17:37:34 <sipa> Cryo: there is talk about a system where updates would be signed by several developers, and the autoupdate system would check those
 709 2012-04-01 17:37:48 <Samuel> user_ I don't think that would look good
 710 2012-04-01 17:38:00 <t7> who has 44k BTC :3

 712 2012-04-01 17:38:37 <sipa> not real BTC
 713 2012-04-01 17:39:21 <user_> tcatm: samuel: and what about a orange bitcoin icon near my balance. orange when is synchronized, and gray when not
 714 2012-04-01 17:39:38 <Samuel> hmm
 715 2012-04-01 17:39:40 <Samuel> maybe
 716 2012-04-01 17:43:02 <gmaxwell> tcatm: are you also an xmonad user?

 737 2012-04-01 18:00:13 <joehallofame> I have no back up before it started doing this, I have uploaded 6.0 and it still does it.  The old version I was using was 5.0
 738 2012-04-01 18:01:05 <gmaxwell> Losing 30 wasn't enough so you added another 270? :-/
 739 2012-04-01 18:02:08 <joehallofame> Three hundred bucks not coins, and I just said 30 because I didn't want to seem like easy prey to a hacker.
 740 2012-04-01 18:02:21 <sipa> ok
 741 2012-04-01 18:02:23 <joehallofame> No gmax I have not added any since last night 61 bitcoins
 742 2012-04-01 18:03:07 <gmaxwell> Unfortunately I'm not sure what to suggest now. You've tried the old version and the current version. Can you actually see the balance before you try to send?
 743 2012-04-01 18:03:34 <joehallofame> Thanks for the help guys I know your tryin', yes I can see the balance of 61 coins.
 744 2012-04-01 18:03:37 <sipa> joehallofame: which OS are you using?
 745 2012-04-01 18:04:06 <joehallofame> I was using 5.0 when it happened, then I tried 6.0, then I tried 5.3.1
 746 2012-04-01 18:04:25 <sipa> no, which operating system?
 747 2012-04-01 18:04:37 <joehallofame> Oh shit sorry windows xp
 748 2012-04-01 18:05:18 <gmaxwell> You wouldn't happen to have a Linux system handy would you? (this might be a windows specific bug)
 749 2012-04-01 18:05:39 <joehallofame> No sir, I don't have the old penguin on standby.
 750 2012-04-01 18:06:21 <joehallofame> That's a good point though, and if worse comes to worse, then I guess it will just sit there and hopefully you all can come up with something.
 751 2012-04-01 18:07:05 <sipa> chances exist that you have a part of the wallet corrupted somehow
 752 2012-04-01 18:07:20 <sipa> but this doesn't necessarily mean that the key corresponding to the funded address is bad
 753 2012-04-01 18:07:42 <gmaxwell> The fact that it can distinguish a good and bad password indicates that the master key is fine.
 754 2012-04-01 18:07:49 <gmaxwell> And that the wallet isn't totally unreadable.
 755 2012-04-01 18:08:17 <sipa> indeed
 756 2012-04-01 18:08:25 <joehallofame> I don't know what that means, but if you guys can fix it then you guys can have 10 coins a piece.
 757 2012-04-01 18:08:41 <joehallofame> Thats about all I could afford as a reward.
 758 2012-04-01 18:08:41 <gmaxwell> ha, well, I want the software fixed— not your coins. :)
 759 2012-04-01 18:08:56 <joehallofame> :) that makes sense.
 760 2012-04-01 18:09:23 <gmaxwell> can you run bitcoin from the command prompt and see if it prints anything when it crashes?
 761 2012-04-01 18:09:43 <joehallofame> Ill try.
 762 2012-04-01 18:09:47 <sipa> i'm afraid we're too late for fixing the software (or at least for detecting what caused it)
 763 2012-04-01 18:10:06 <sipa> but maybe a recovery mode is possible to is more tolerant to wallet errors

 765 2012-04-01 18:11:08 <joehallofame> what do I type in the command prompt?
 766 2012-04-01 18:11:43 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: change to the directory where bitcoin is located and type bitcoin-qt.exe  (sorry, I'm not much help— I am a complete idiot about windows)

 772 2012-04-01 18:14:17 <gmaxwell> maybe it's just the keypool is corrupted.

 785 2012-04-01 18:18:19 <tcatm> gmaxwell: Yes, that's a (heavily customized) xmonad :)
 786 2012-04-01 18:18:57 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: Running with the gui was the expected behavior— I just had you start it from the commandprompt so we could see that message.
 787 2012-04-01 18:19:18 <gmaxwell> joehallofame: make it crash again then open up the debug.log with wordpad and get the last few lines out
 788 2012-04-01 18:22:13 <joehallofame> ok the last few lines are:
 789 2012-04-01 18:23:18 <joehallofame> 0x000519a0:  01000000 10000300 01000010 68002000 ............. h
 790 2012-04-01 18:23:30 <joehallofame> is that what you mean stuff like this?
 791 2012-04-01 18:23:53 <sipa> that's unexpected
 792 2012-04-01 18:24:05 <sipa> can you copy-paste the last few pages on a site like pastebit.com?
 793 2012-04-01 18:24:22 <joehallofame> 0x000519b0:  01000004 00202000 20000100 0010a800 .....  .... ....

 819 2012-04-01 18:33:10 <joehallofame> yea dude Ill give it a shot if you think there's a chance.

 838 2012-04-01 18:58:50 <etotheipi_> user_, you just made me realize that I need to respond to both you and gavin in that thread...
 839 2012-04-01 18:59:02 <etotheipi_> user_, but that is the general idea I was aiming for
 840 2012-04-01 18:59:28 <etotheipi_> the difference is that the amount that goes in will be determined by the two parties as level of "risk", put more "deposit" in if there's more risk
 841 2012-04-01 18:59:32 <user_> please, i would like your comment thhere
 842 2012-04-01 18:59:48 <etotheipi_> third party would get involved that risk level has at least 15% "deposit" from both users
 843 2012-04-01 19:00:26 <etotheipi_> user_, I believe bitdispute should get both deposits
 844 2012-04-01 19:00:33 <etotheipi_> that way it is equally funded by both parties

 847 2012-04-01 19:02:49 <etotheipi_> user_, 20 BTC is the price... they agree on 20% "risk deposit", so Alice puts in 24 BTC, Bob puts in 4 BTC... they both get the 4 BTC back if it goes smoothly
 848 2012-04-01 19:03:03 <etotheipi_> otherwise the third-party gets the 8 BTC for resolving the dispute
 849 2012-04-01 19:03:19 <etotheipi_> and thus the dispute fee is paid for by both parties
 850 2012-04-01 19:03:26 <user_> eetotheipi_: my english is not good, so i wouuld like you respond as a comment on gist page

 902 2012-04-01 19:52:23 <joehallofame> sipa: no I am not sure.  but last night I used every password I had and when I got the right one it booted me out.  This is the exact same thing that happened to the other dude too ( the one that gmax sent me a link to read about), therefore I am pretty sure it was the correct one.
 903 2012-04-01 19:53:17 <joehallofame> let me try again ill report back in a few.

 912 2012-04-01 20:11:03 <sipa> if you use the wrong password, it will certainly say that
 913 2012-04-01 20:11:21 <sipa> (since all wallet keys will look invalid, so it'll throw them all away)
 914 2012-04-01 20:11:56 <joehallofame> it used to say, incorrect password ( a different error message ).  Hmmmm.
 915 2012-04-01 20:13:02 <joehallofame> and instead of bringing me back to the password box, it just brings me all the way out to the send coins page.

 933 2012-04-01 20:59:37 <paulo_> so transaction fees "destroy" coins and allows them to be recreated through mining?
 934 2012-04-01 21:00:29 <splatster> Transactions fees are added to the block reward of the blocks they are contained in.
 935 2012-04-01 21:00:37 <sipa> paulo_: that's one way to put it
 936 2012-04-01 21:01:00 <sipa> but if you follow that reasoning, every transactions destroys its input coins, and recreates them in the form of outputs
 937 2012-04-01 21:01:50 <splatster> The only way to truly destroy coins is to send them to an unredeemable output.
 938 2012-04-01 21:02:24 <gmaxwell> splatster: what would you call it then when you make a block that takes less than the permitted subsidy?

 987 2012-04-01 22:09:01 <forsetifox> Pools that have implimented BIP30 are orphaning?
 988 2012-04-01 22:09:10 <gmaxwell> forsetifox: What are you talking about?
 989 2012-04-01 22:09:18 <paulo_> what does it mean?
 990 2012-04-01 22:09:34 <forsetifox> The red X above the pool name doesn't mean that pool got an orphan?
 991 2012-04-01 22:09:38 <gmaxwell> And I'm incorrect, these all look normal as far as I can tell.
 992 2012-04-01 22:09:47 <gmaxwell> forsetifox: Yes, but why did you mention BIP30?
 993 2012-04-01 22:10:05 <forsetifox> That's why the orphans are happening?
 994 2012-04-01 22:10:13 t7 has joined
 995 2012-04-01 22:10:15 <gmaxwell> Bip30 only makes a difference in the presence of an overwriting attack, which will never happen now that it will be futile.
 996 2012-04-01 22:10:30 <forsetifox> Alrighty then. Then why is the orphaning happening?
 997 2012-04-01 22:10:43 <k9quaint> because the parents never wanted children
 998 2012-04-01 22:10:51 <sipa> a 4-block long split is quite unheard of
 999 2012-04-01 22:11:13 <gmaxwell> I can't see why it happened in this case though.
1000 2012-04-01 22:11:20 <forsetifox> Heh.
1001 2012-04-01 22:11:33 <sipa> might MM be involved?
1002 2012-04-01 22:13:33 BruceFagner is now known as terry
1003 2012-04-01 22:13:51 <gmaxwell> oh it's four now. It was three before.
1004 2012-04-01 22:14:21 <makomk> When I looked before, I'm pretty sure the other side was winning too.
1005 2012-04-01 22:15:33 <k9quaint> a statistical cluster? or does the fork really have that much hash power behind it?
1006 2012-04-01 22:16:10 <gmaxwell> I notice that the fork is all "50btc" according to blockchain.info and all 1txn blocks
1007 2012-04-01 22:16:52 <Diablo-D3> what happened?
1008 2012-04-01 22:16:57 <Diablo-D3> whats bip30?
1009 2012-04-01 22:17:17 <sipa> Diablo-D3: disallow duplicate transactions
1010 2012-04-01 22:18:03 <gmaxwell> Based on the fork topology I'd expect it to be ozcoin mined an invalid block and them MM (labled 50BTC here) extended it.
1011 2012-04-01 22:18:14 <sipa> gmaxwell: so, there was a block from ozcoin where kept MM building on, while the rest of the network accepted slush's alternative
1012 2012-04-01 22:18:22 <gmaxwell> but I don't see anything invalid in ozcoin's block.

1014 2012-04-01 22:19:03 <gmaxwell> And blockchain.info recieved slush's much later— but that may just be because blockchain.info's peers had mostly accepted ozcoin's and only propagated slush's once that side won.
1015 2012-04-01 22:19:31 <Diablo-D3> so is anything wrong or not?
1016 2012-04-01 22:19:35 <sipa> gmaxwell: also, blockchain.info says about the blocks on the left that they are orphaned
1017 2012-04-01 22:19:48 <sipa> gmaxwell: while those on the right are claimed to be in the main chain
1018 2012-04-01 22:19:54 <sipa> the icons say differently
1019 2012-04-01 22:19:58 <makomk> blockchain.info seems to get that wrong on the actual block pages.
1020 2012-04-01 22:20:11 <gmaxwell> The output on the blockchain.info page isn't stable.
1021 2012-04-01 22:20:20 <gmaxwell> it just swapped left and right for me (again)
1022 2012-04-01 22:20:31 <gmaxwell> (but shows the MM side as losing still, which is right)
1023 2012-04-01 22:21:03 <k9quaint> deepbit will crush these uppity rebels!
1024 2012-04-01 22:21:06 <gmaxwell> I wonder if there were enough transactions in the real chain now that MM can't reorg back.

1028 2012-04-01 22:23:49 <gmaxwell> well the network is up to 173934
1029 2012-04-01 22:24:00 <gmaxwell> It'll be interesting to see if MM keeps extending that fork.
1030 2012-04-01 22:24:03 <makomk> Yeah.

1036 2012-04-01 22:26:10 <gmaxwell> I don't see how it could be.
1037 2012-04-01 22:26:17 <gmaxwell> It could also be the result of people attacking the MM.
1038 2012-04-01 22:26:38 <gmaxwell> for it to be p2sh related there would have to be an invalid p2sh transaction in https://blockchain.info/block-index/202136/000000000000023df73ac98923e2de321db3e3396102ad5dcfe3b25f01a81f64

1051 2012-04-01 22:31:04 <[Tycho]> Length of orphaned branch.
1052 2012-04-01 22:31:08 <graingert> they are all 1tx
1053 2012-04-01 22:31:11 <graingert> how odd
1054 2012-04-01 22:31:19 <gmaxwell> [Tycho]: the fact that it's all one node extending it makes it a little less so.
1055 2012-04-01 22:31:30 <[Tycho]> OzCoin's one is not.
1056 2012-04-01 22:31:44 <gmaxwell> [Tycho]: e.g. his network connection going down before the slush/ozcoin split would create that.
1057 2012-04-01 22:31:46 <graingert> how do they know which is orphaned?

1071 2012-04-01 22:35:45 <graingert> are they not all of them
1072 2012-04-01 22:36:02 <gmaxwell> graingert: 50btc is the name of a pool.
1073 2012-04-01 22:36:18 <gmaxwell> But the MM's blocks are currently being called 50btc by blockchain.info (most likely)
1074 2012-04-01 22:36:30 <gmaxwell> Don't blame me for the confusing pool name.
1075 2012-04-01 22:36:55 <graingert> MM blocks?

1081 2012-04-01 22:40:34 <makomk> gmaxwell: interestingly blockchain.info claims to have heard about the 1 tx version of block 173929 20 minutes before Donate@Home's, of 173930 25 minutes before Deepbit's, and of 173931 again 25 minutes before Deepbit's. That'd require unusually selective network failure on the part of the MM.
