  16 2013-04-26 00:01:49 <qwertyoruiop> :P
  17 2013-04-26 00:02:08 <qwertyoruiop> you have to write less zeroes, hence it'll save your time

  28 2013-04-26 00:02:54 <sipa> Diablo-D3: you need 21 bits for that :p
  29 2013-04-26 00:03:03 <Diablo-D3> er, 21 bit
  30 2013-04-26 00:03:10 <Diablo-D3> I corrected myself =P
  31 2013-04-26 00:03:12 <sipa> also, every language needs a built-in base phi type
  32 2013-04-26 00:03:16 <Diablo-D3> you can fit 3 in a long long

  40 2013-04-26 00:04:24 <copumpkin> biguint might be called bignatural :P

  45 2013-04-26 00:04:45 <copumpkin> than bigfloat
  46 2013-04-26 00:04:49 <alex4> to get network total hash :)

  87 2013-04-26 00:12:28 <alex4> sipa so ok I get it a bit, a diff -  total hash of the network caused it to be certain value due to 10 min 1 block target
  88 2013-04-26 00:13:57 <sipa> i have difficulty(!) parsing your sentence, but i think what you mean is: this calculates the hash rate that would have caused the current difficulty
  89 2013-04-26 00:14:07 <alex4> yes
  90 2013-04-26 00:14:09 <sipa> and that's indeed the case
  91 2013-04-26 00:14:14 <gmaxwell> Luke-Jr: any idea if libevent supports windows? :P
  92 2013-04-26 00:14:51 <sipa> alex4: see http://bitcoin.sipa.be
  93 2013-04-26 00:15:10 <sipa> you can see graphs with the difficulty 'catching up' with the hash rate
  94 2013-04-26 00:15:26 <alex4> sipa yes I understand the theory
  95 2013-04-26 00:15:37 <alex4> it have to adjust diff to keep on target
  96 2013-04-26 00:15:49 <alex4> 2**48/65535/600/1000000000 however what are values in this formula?
  97 2013-04-26 00:15:59 <alex4> 2 means diff doubles each time? and rest?

 120 2013-04-26 00:21:31 <sipa> yes
 121 2013-04-26 00:21:46 <sipa> on average
 122 2013-04-26 00:22:01 <Luke-Jr> gmaxwell: the basic summary of the problem is, Windows's real networking interface wants you to do a non-blocking read() and it will tell you when it completes - you can't ask it to notify you when it's readable
 123 2013-04-26 00:22:41 <sipa> that is so broken...
 124 2013-04-26 00:23:02 <Luke-Jr> dunno, it's arguably a better design - just doesn't fit the paradigm everyone's been using forever
 125 2013-04-26 00:23:31 <sipa> wait
 126 2013-04-26 00:23:36 <alex4> in future can bitcoin use sha512?
 127 2013-04-26 00:23:39 <sipa> you mean asynchronous or non-blocking?

 132 2013-04-26 00:24:03 <Luke-Jr> in practice
 133 2013-04-26 00:24:04 <sipa> as in: does the read continue in the background, or does it just fail and you have to retry?
 134 2013-04-26 00:24:11 <Luke-Jr> it continues in the bg
 135 2013-04-26 00:24:25 <sipa> ok, yes, that's nice i guess, but different

 139 2013-04-26 00:25:31 <Luke-Jr> Belxjander: ?
 140 2013-04-26 00:25:37 <Belxjander> sorry

 142 2013-04-26 00:26:14 <sipa> it sounds more like aio_read
 143 2013-04-26 00:27:13 <Luke-Jr> yeah, more or less
 144 2013-04-26 00:28:16 <Luke-Jr> I was actually looking for some kind of library that allowed for async-like performance with sync/readable code, but came out empty-handed
 145 2013-04-26 00:29:00 <Luke-Jr> eg, by longjmp-ing out of read while saving the stack to be jumped back into later
 146 2013-04-26 00:29:18 <Luke-Jr> sadly, context switches like that are very non-portable
 147 2013-04-26 00:30:31 <alex4> sipa so 0.007158388055 is amount of GH/s needed to solve 1 block at diff 1? then i multiply it by current difficulty as you said and it gives total GH/s of network?
 148 2013-04-26 00:30:34 <gmaxwell> Looks like libevent2 uses the windows IOCP (IO completion, I suppose) stuff, but apparently has (/had) poor performance everywhere. A lot of posts on the subject are old.
 149 2013-04-26 00:31:24 <sipa> alex4: no, it's the amount of GH/s needed to solve 1 block at diff 1 _in 10 minutes_
 150 2013-04-26 00:32:16 <gmaxwell> well, I guess the boost asio stuff is supposted to solve this too.. but ugh.

 192 2013-04-26 00:45:21 <bwen> how can I monitor the transaction to an address on the block chain without having the privatekey ?
 193 2013-04-26 00:45:37 <tumak> but I'm universal STL hater, so what am i to say?
 194 2013-04-26 00:46:35 <tumak> bwen: you mean you want to import public key into bitcoinqt w/o having the private part?
 195 2013-04-26 00:47:17 <bwen> I'd like to query the json rpc to query the block chain for an address

 197 2013-04-26 00:47:45 <gmaxwell> tumak: e.g. on my system every boost asio operation attempts to malloc(64 tbytes) for no explicable reason.
 198 2013-04-26 00:48:19 <tumak> isnt that just pretty much definition of c++?
 199 2013-04-26 00:48:27 <tumak> ie threashing the heap for every little thing :)

 203 2013-04-26 00:48:59 <tumak> its the evil stl, and its bigger brother boost hiding stuff

 211 2013-04-26 00:51:28 <alex4> yerr!!!
 212 2013-04-26 00:51:34 <alex4> he is genius in math
 213 2013-04-26 00:51:57 <alex4> and he is good at explaning complex things in simple way
 214 2013-04-26 00:52:13 <nsh> i can do the opposite really well
 215 2013-04-26 00:52:15 <nsh> we should team up
 216 2013-04-26 00:52:27 <alex4> eee thats -1 btc per explanation then :D
 217 2013-04-26 00:52:28 <bwen> I cant query the blockchain thru the jsonrpc can I? How else could I achieve this?
 218 2013-04-26 00:52:34 <HM2> gmaxwell: that 64 bytes is probably the functor object. i recently plugged asio in to zmq and the architecture is a PITA.
 219 2013-04-26 00:52:47 <BlueMatt> bwen: depends on what you're quering for
 220 2013-04-26 00:53:00 <BlueMatt> bwen: also, "Tell us what you're trying to do, not how you think you need to do it." -topic
 221 2013-04-26 00:53:24 <BlueMatt> bwen: or I can read scrollback, no you cant do that over rpc
 222 2013-04-26 00:53:39 <jgarzik> sipa: I think luke-jr is a bit confused about Windows and non-blocking sockets
 223 2013-04-26 00:53:40 <BlueMatt> bwen: Im not aware of any non-web ways to do so without writing code
 224 2013-04-26 00:53:45 <gmaxwell> HM2: 64 terabytes. thats one hell of a functor object.
 225 2013-04-26 00:53:48 <bwen> BlueMatt: I'd like to monitor the transaction going to a specific bitcoin address. Which would avoid having the privatekeys on the server
 226 2013-04-26 00:53:57 <alex4> what is hash max_target? how come it 65535?
 227 2013-04-26 00:54:10 <BlueMatt> bwen: well if you have the private key at all, you could just encrypt the wallet and throw away the key
 228 2013-04-26 00:54:12 LorenzoMoney has left ("Ciao!")
 229 2013-04-26 00:54:38 <alex4> wrong question, going to read more now
 230 2013-04-26 00:54:38 <alex4> :)
 231 2013-04-26 00:55:12 <bwen> BlueMatt: but then the server get compromised and they just send calls to the jsonrpc ... I dont want the server to have access to send bitcoins from that address. Just readability
 232 2013-04-26 00:55:45 <BlueMatt> yes, that is what encryption does
 233 2013-04-26 00:55:53 <BlueMatt> without the key there is no possible way to send bitcoins
 234 2013-04-26 00:56:07 <bwen> can I just delete the key then
 235 2013-04-26 00:56:10 <Luke-Jr> jgarzik: why do you say that?
 236 2013-04-26 00:56:13 <bwen> why encypt it

 239 2013-04-26 00:56:45 <BlueMatt> because manually deleting the key requires binary manipulation of the wallet and coding, but if you just encrypt with a long random password and throw away the password, its just as good
 240 2013-04-26 00:57:12 i2pRelay has joined
 241 2013-04-26 00:58:04 <bwen> BlueMatt: faire enough, if I encrypt the whole wallet how is jsonrpc going to be able to read it and its addresses?
 242 2013-04-26 00:58:04 <Luke-Jr> jgarzik: considering how much time I've wasted researching it, I'd be surprised..
 243 2013-04-26 00:58:24 <Luke-Jr> jgarzik: more likely I suck at explaining it, but I'd love to be wrong
 244 2013-04-26 00:58:40 <BlueMatt> bwen: bitcoin wallet encryption only encrypts private keys, so transactions/pubkeys are all there just as before

 252 2013-04-26 01:00:43 <bwen> BlueMatt: how does blockchain.info those it? querying the single address on the blockchain ...
 253 2013-04-26 01:00:54 <jgarzik> But I was responding to this, which is not really accurate:  "Windows's real networking interface wants you to do a non-blocking read() and it will tell you when it completes"
 254 2013-04-26 01:00:54 <Luke-Jr> jgarzik: also, I was talking about IOCP, not WSAPoll

 307 2013-04-26 01:25:51 <alex4> hmm I read difficulty = maximum_target / current_target
 308 2013-04-26 01:25:52 <lianj> if you say difficulty = maximum_target / current_target, the ofcourse. 0x00000000ffff0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 / 0x00000000ffff0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 is one
 309 2013-04-26 01:26:52 <alex4> current target is directly related to amount of total hash?
 310 2013-04-26 01:27:04 <lianj> the bitcoin wire protocol doesn't know or care about difficulty representation. its about targets

 319 2013-04-26 01:29:48 <alex4> It's important to realize that block generation is not a long, set  problem (like doing a million hashes), but more like a lottery. Each  hash basically gives you a random number between 0 and the maximum value  of a 256-bit number (which is huge). If your hash is below the target,  then you win. If not, you increment the nonce (completely changing the  hash) and try again.

 394 2013-04-26 02:54:52 <Styles> Hey guys, can I ask some really stupid questions about bitcoin?
 395 2013-04-26 02:55:03 btcluvr has joined
 396 2013-04-26 02:55:07 <bwen> so you give us the choice?
 397 2013-04-26 02:55:10 <Styles> I know there are clients, but I also see references to servers, what's this about? There isn't much info on "bitcoin servers"
 398 2013-04-26 02:55:22 <Styles> Meh good point bwen, I know better than that.

 400 2013-04-26 02:55:28 <btcluvr> any people in here looking for work. I want to setup a gaming site. Neever some coders to help
 401 2013-04-26 02:55:28 <bwen> but I havent answered the first question :(
 402 2013-04-26 02:55:29 <etotheipi_> bwen!
 403 2013-04-26 02:55:40 <etotheipi_> I've been waiting for you on bitcoin-armory, I didn't know you were here
 404 2013-04-26 02:55:44 <Styles> bwen idc! Answer the second :)
 405 2013-04-26 02:55:57 <eklass> clients come in 2 flavors. full client which hosts the blockchain and are nodes/servers in the sense you're
 406 2013-04-26 02:56:02 <eklass> meaning
 407 2013-04-26 02:56:15 <eklass> engrish hard
 408 2013-04-26 02:56:17 <bwen> ethotheipi_: what did you do to my fav client? >_<
 409 2013-04-26 02:56:23 <etotheipi_> bwen: did you figure out the (?) thing?  I updated the code to make it a little more obvious

 411 2013-04-26 02:56:31 <eklass> since it's peer-to-peer, there are no "servers" just nodes
 412 2013-04-26 02:56:33 <Styles> eklass ok, so the full client... what's the lite?
 413 2013-04-26 02:56:39 <Styles> eklass I understand
 414 2013-04-26 02:56:45 <eklass> lite is basically an interface to a full client hosted elsewhere
 415 2013-04-26 02:56:46 <etotheipi_> bwen: when you click on the (?) it pops up a little informational window.  You click it to make it go away
 416 2013-04-26 02:56:49 <Styles> I'm more interested in monitoring the current block chain.
 417 2013-04-26 02:57:01 <etotheipi_> bwen: but if you don't realize that, it all looks totally frozen
 418 2013-04-26 02:57:03 <Styles> I've seen people setup a "bitcoin server" and use RPC to monitor it, but that doesn't seem to scale to well.
 419 2013-04-26 02:57:08 <Styles> And how often does the bitcoin protocol change?
 420 2013-04-26 02:57:12 ejones_ has joined
 421 2013-04-26 02:57:48 <gmaxwell> What does "scale well" mean in this context?
 422 2013-04-26 02:58:01 <eklass> you don't have to use a full client if you're just looking to monitor the blockchain. there are libraries around to do that. depends on what you're trying to accomplish
 423 2013-04-26 02:58:07 <Styles> Well from my understanding, the server hosts the "wallet" and interacts with it directly.

 434 2013-04-26 02:59:41 <Styles> Well RPC is the method that the bitcoin client allows you to interact with it. But the protocol the clients are using.
 435 2013-04-26 03:00:06 <Styles> Sort of ripping apart the public client :p
 436 2013-04-26 03:00:22 <gmaxwell> Styles: Because there are no servers bitcoin doesn't just have a protocol, it's a distributed algorithim that all nodes participate in, part of which gets serialized up and sent over the wire. Impletmenting it exactly consistently with other nodes is incredibly important.
 437 2013-04-26 03:00:23 <Styles> er well it's oss but w/e (too much coffee today)

 440 2013-04-26 03:00:50 <Styles> What bootstrapping does BC use?
 441 2013-04-26 03:01:03 <Styles> This site didn't work yesturday btw :-/
 442 2013-04-26 03:01:10 <btcluvr> no coders in here, ?????
 443 2013-04-26 03:01:17 <jgarzik> Styles: DNS or hardcoded list to obtain initial P2P node addresses
 444 2013-04-26 03:01:23 <jgarzik> Styles: then peer exchange
 445 2013-04-26 03:01:34 <eklass> Styles i believ eit piggybacks off IRC
 446 2013-04-26 03:01:44 <gmaxwell> Styles: you should note that the wiki page there isn't remotely complete.
 447 2013-04-26 03:01:45 <Styles> I was reading it use to use IRC but no longer does?
 448 2013-04-26 03:01:57 <Styles> gmaxwell yeah :-/
 449 2013-04-26 03:02:02 <jgarzik> eklass: no
 450 2013-04-26 03:02:06 <jgarzik> Styles: correct
 451 2013-04-26 03:02:15 <Styles> Where missing a lot of functionalliity. This just seems like the basic structure of it.
 452 2013-04-26 03:02:27 <kanzure> irc was a rather clever bootstrapper originally
 453 2013-04-26 03:02:30 <jgarzik> Styles: If you want the full rules, you must read the source code
 454 2013-04-26 03:02:30 <eklass> news to me :-\
 455 2013-04-26 03:02:39 <gmaxwell> kanzure: it was a pretty poor one.
 456 2013-04-26 03:02:42 <Styles> jgarzik bah I was avoiding that.
 457 2013-04-26 03:02:46 <Styles> How often does this change?
 458 2013-04-26 03:02:58 <kanzure> gmaxwell: well, he needed something that he didn't have to support
 459 2013-04-26 03:03:16 <gmaxwell> Styles: if you have any hesitance at all at reading the code then you'd have no chance of implementing it correctly in any case.
 460 2013-04-26 03:03:33 <kanzure> that doesn't sound good, what about just reading the tests instead
 461 2013-04-26 03:03:34 <Styles> gmaxwell I have no problem doing it, just wasn't sure if it's already documented.
 462 2013-04-26 03:03:42 <Styles> It seems like something that would have happened by now, that's all.
 463 2013-04-26 03:03:45 <Styles> Like an RFC
 464 2013-04-26 03:03:45 <gmaxwell> kanzure: it made everything dependant on an unreliable centeralized service which could abuse its position to isolated nodes or monitor who was using bitcoin.
 465 2013-04-26 03:04:25 <Styles> Yeah standard bootstrapping is DNS
 466 2013-04-26 03:04:37 <Styles> A lot of p2p networks depended on 3rd parties to do this.

 469 2013-04-26 03:05:05 <kanzure> i'm not going to stir up a debate about whether or not irc is better than dns, both have been compromised in the past
 470 2013-04-26 03:05:18 <Styles> kanzure terrible way
 471 2013-04-26 03:05:21 <kanzure> what?
 472 2013-04-26 03:05:41 <gmaxwell> Styles: There is no RFC protocol with anywhere near the interlocking complexity of Bitcoin, perhaps the closest would be the Opus RFC (which I worked extensively on) and we resolved exactness of specification by including a normative decoder implementation in C in the RFC.
 473 2013-04-26 03:06:05 <gmaxwell> kanzure: there is nothing to compare. IRC created a _single_ point of failure, the dnsseed stuff does not.
 474 2013-04-26 03:06:14 <Styles> gmaxwell why is it so complex? Just the math behind it?
 475 2013-04-26 03:06:24 i2pRelay has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
 476 2013-04-26 03:06:40 <Styles> The idea behind p2p is it has no single point of failure. And if bootstrapping is hard, well shit you have a problem.
 477 2013-04-26 03:06:47 i2pRelay has joined
 478 2013-04-26 03:06:54 <kanzure> gmaxwell: you might know something that i don't about dns, but how would you go about doing actually anonymous dns registration?
 479 2013-04-26 03:07:02 <gmaxwell> Styles: the fact that all of non-trivial calculations and operations must be performed exactly, if a node permits something it shouldn't or denies something it should then thats an exploitable vulnerablities that causes consensus failure.
 480 2013-04-26 03:07:27 Ashaman_ has joined
 481 2013-04-26 03:07:28 <gmaxwell> kanzure: what does anonymous dns registration have to do with anything?
 482 2013-04-26 03:07:35 <Styles> gmaxwell alright, makes sense.
 483 2013-04-26 03:07:51 <kanzure> well it seems like the initial choices were constrained by that choice of anonymity
 484 2013-04-26 03:08:25 <kanzure> actually, screw it, i bet there's some tor/dns things that i'm not aware of
 485 2013-04-26 03:08:29 <Styles> kanzure a lot of large p2p networks survived by clients setting up multiple bootstrapping dns servers. Check Gnutella network.

 489 2013-04-26 03:08:44 PhantomSpark has joined
 490 2013-04-26 03:08:52 <Styles> Once you get a list of other nodes, cache them, and you never hit the bootstrapper again.
 491 2013-04-26 03:08:53 <kanzure> the initial release of bitcoin was from an individual that was trying to remain anonymous
 492 2013-04-26 03:09:03 <kanzure> so his bootstrapping decisions were determined in part by this
 493 2013-04-26 03:09:30 <kanzure> s/determined/constrained/
 494 2013-04-26 03:09:46 <Styles> gmaxwell so this would be slighly intensive to write a monitor for the block chain in another language?
 495 2013-04-26 03:09:56 <Styles> My best bet is to just setup bitcoind and use RPC?
 496 2013-04-26 03:09:59 polrpaul has joined
 497 2013-04-26 03:10:20 <gmaxwell> what kind of monitor? does it have to be reliable? can people get robbed if its wrong and following a fork?
 498 2013-04-26 03:10:42 ColinT has joined
 499 2013-04-26 03:10:46 <Styles> gmaxwell Yeah it needs to be as reliable as bitcoind is.
 500 2013-04-26 03:11:01 <gmaxwell> Then you should use the rpc.
 501 2013-04-26 03:11:18 <Styles> Well RPC doesn't have events, it so what I'd be checking every 30s for changes?
 502 2013-04-26 03:11:41 <gmaxwell> Styles: you can use blocknotify for it to tell you when the bestblock has changed.
 503 2013-04-26 03:11:59 <Styles> gmaxwell ah, alright awesome.

 513 2013-04-26 03:14:46 <Styles> But it also seems like failure to implement one properly would cause mayhem on the network
 514 2013-04-26 03:14:52 <saracen> It seems like it's needed, because this reliance on bitcoind makes it quite centralised in a way
 515 2013-04-26 03:14:53 i2pRelay has joined
 516 2013-04-26 03:15:10 <gmaxwell> saracen: The reference software is the documentation. You must immitate its behavior indistiguishably.
 517 2013-04-26 03:15:33 <gmaxwell> indistinguishably*
 518 2013-04-26 03:16:08 <gmaxwell> If you do not faithfully apply exactly the same rules it applies, permitting no more and no less, then you risk creating a consensus failure if your software is widely used.

 525 2013-04-26 03:17:34 <gmaxwell> vrs: it only causes 'mayhem' if honest users use the alternative software which is not completely faithful.
 526 2013-04-26 03:17:45 <vrs> yes
 527 2013-04-26 03:18:06 <saracen> At what point could bitcoind be considered not faithful?
 528 2013-04-26 03:18:10 <gmaxwell> You— an attacker— running weird software doesn't cause any mayhem.
 529 2013-04-26 03:18:27 <vrs> I figured that if the network was easy to break/scramble, people would've done it by now, while new implementors needed to be on the watch to not introduce new points of failure themselves

 532 2013-04-26 03:19:25 <Styles> Right
 533 2013-04-26 03:19:25 <vrs> yes, but it rules out accidental breaking, doesn't it?
 534 2013-04-26 03:19:35 <Styles> The rest of the clients can filter out the bad requeste ect..
 535 2013-04-26 03:19:42 ColinT has quit (Quit: Leaving...)
 536 2013-04-26 03:20:22 <gmaxwell> Bitcoin is a consensus system. All honest nodes must come to exactly the same determination about the state of the blockchain. If they fail to reach a consensus, then the currency turns into two currencies and all bitcoins can be spent twice.  You can startup your own nodes that don't join into the global consensus— but that harms no one but you.
 537 2013-04-26 03:20:39 <vrs> yeah.
 538 2013-04-26 03:20:46 <gmaxwell> But if you have a bunch of regular users running different software and someone produces a transaction which they disagree on.. thats a disaster.
 539 2013-04-26 03:21:21 <vrs> I see your point
 540 2013-04-26 03:21:24 <gmaxwell> We're very careful in the reference client to not introduce incompatiblities with past versions except in the form of adding new restrictions and then making sure the vast majority of mining enforces them first.
 541 2013-04-26 03:21:32 <gmaxwell> So that old nodes still believe the new consensus.
 542 2013-04-26 03:21:59 <saracen> Doesn't this effectively put the bitcoind core developers in complete control of the network?

 548 2013-04-26 03:22:35 <vrs> if they change the implementation, it puts them out of sync with the clients that repruduced earlier versions faithfully

 553 2013-04-26 03:23:27 <saracen> In theory, you could say that nobody would run it
 554 2013-04-26 03:23:32 <saracen> But in practice, they most likely would.
 555 2013-04-26 03:23:38 <gmaxwell> The rules that must be enforced are insanely subtle.. 0.8 in replacing the database layer introduced a potential for inconsistency with old nodes.  Weirdness in the oracle bdb database library used for the transaction indexes in old nodes were effectively undisclosed network rules.
 556 2013-04-26 03:24:02 <Diablo-D3> fucking oracle :<

 559 2013-04-26 03:24:22 <saracen> The changes that forked the chain with the whole database issue
 560 2013-04-26 03:24:26 <Diablo-D3> ORACLE, RUINER OF OPEN SOURCE
 561 2013-04-26 03:24:43 <gmaxwell> This caused a short term convergence failure which was fixed by gettting a majority of hashpower to manually reject the blockchain fork that wouldn't be accepted by all nodes.
 562 2013-04-26 03:24:46 <saracen> Didn't the pools effectively save you? If pools didnt exist, how long would it have taken you to tell everybody mining to use a specific version?
 563 2013-04-26 03:25:02 <gmaxwell> saracen: if pools didn't exist there likely would have been no problem.
 564 2013-04-26 03:25:24 <gmaxwell> saracen: because the 'weird and not acceptable to most nodes' chain would have had a hashpower minority.
 565 2013-04-26 03:25:29 <vrs> when there's a network split, a slight majority in hashpower is enough for one chain to eventually outrun the other
 566 2013-04-26 03:25:32 <gmaxwell> and so it would have just naturally died.
 567 2013-04-26 03:25:36 <vrs> and rational miners will join that blockchain
 568 2013-04-26 03:25:48 <saracen> But how long would that take?
 569 2013-04-26 03:25:53 <saracen> To naturally die?
 570 2013-04-26 03:25:58 <vrs> probably longer than with manual intervention
 571 2013-04-26 03:26:05 <gmaxwell> saracen: it happens all the time— once or twice a day that there is a losing fork.

 574 2013-04-26 03:27:03 <gmaxwell> saracen: would have depended on how split the hashpower was when it happened, at ~50% it would have taken a long time, at the 25% of the network that 0.8 had at the time... it would have very likely happened by the next block.
 575 2013-04-26 03:27:51 <gmaxwell> The issue there wasn't just that 0.8 and before disagreed, but that 0.8 had a super majority of hashpower while also having a minority of actual nodes.
 576 2013-04-26 03:27:57 <vrs> theoretically you could fork the existing chain with a client that speaks a slightly different protocol and enough people using it
 577 2013-04-26 03:28:16 <vrs> but that wouldn't be very different from an altcoin
 578 2013-04-26 03:28:17 <Styles> Yes vrs but try getting enough people
 579 2013-04-26 03:28:25 <Styles> And eventually it should correct itself

 582 2013-04-26 03:28:36 <Styles> So it doesn't matter
 583 2013-04-26 03:28:47 <Styles> If the user wants their bitcoins to be worth something, use the correct protocol
 584 2013-04-26 03:29:46 <gmaxwell> hah but while an inconsistency exists all the txn on the losing side of it may potentially be reversed..... kinda high stakes.
 585 2013-04-26 03:30:26 <saracen> I just wonder what the landscape will look like when there are other nodes written by others, and the share is much greater
 586 2013-04-26 03:30:27 i2pRelay has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
 587 2013-04-26 03:30:51 <gmaxwell> and it's not like people know their protocol is incorrect.. there are hundreds of rules and they must be just so. E.g. if there is a rule that a script must be <10000 bytes, and you count differently so that you only permit 9999.. then if someone makes a transaction right on the boundary you're forked.

 590 2013-04-26 03:31:23 <gmaxwell> saracen: there are other nodes written by others, and the art of testing for conformance is improving over time.
 591 2013-04-26 03:31:34 <gmaxwell> Styles: :P
 592 2013-04-26 03:31:38 <Styles> wait wait
 593 2013-04-26 03:31:43 <Styles> please don't fire me from my job
 594 2013-04-26 03:32:21 <Styles> So the best practice is use the bitcoind
 595 2013-04-26 03:33:47 ikea_meatballs has joined
 596 2013-04-26 03:33:54 <Styles> gmaxwell using pure speculation, sites like MtGox are just using bitcoind and monitoring changes on the block chain
 597 2013-04-26 03:33:57 <gmaxwell> Yes, best practice is to use bitcoind. The second best practice is to put whatever you use behind your own current bitcoind "firewall" nodes... so at worst any rule disagreement just causes you to get stuck.
 598 2013-04-26 03:34:08 <vrs> talking of alternative implementations, is supernode any good?
 599 2013-04-26 03:34:29 <Styles> vrs what?
 600 2013-04-26 03:34:34 <gmaxwell> I don't believe any alternatives are actually correct.

 607 2013-04-26 03:35:17 <Styles> This is exactly what I was talking about

 617 2013-04-26 03:37:35 <saracen> I imagine it depends on how big the wallet file is. I got my up to 3gb, and then it stopped working when I attempted a rescan.
 618 2013-04-26 03:38:00 <vrs> a 3gb *wallet*?
 619 2013-04-26 03:38:01 <gmaxwell> vrs: hm? I test with 100,000 addresses. Large numbers of move transactions can slow it down a lot.
 620 2013-04-26 03:38:18 <gmaxwell> (large meaning tens or hundreds of thousands)

 630 2013-04-26 03:40:29 <saracen> gmaxwell: I never found out. It took me awhile to add that many keys, and then it was either going slow, or not doing anything. Then I fucked everything up by trying to read the file with a BDB library
 631 2013-04-26 03:40:34 <gmaxwell> at one point about two years ago I imported every transaction in the network into a wallet... worked okay. Probably wouldn't now. :)
 632 2013-04-26 03:40:41 <saracen> Except, I didnt read it, I accidentally saved a blank database over the top of it
 633 2013-04-26 03:40:44 <saracen> So then I gave up.
 634 2013-04-26 03:40:54 <Styles> gmaxwell can you request every transaction going backwards?
 635 2013-04-26 03:40:56 <Styles> Like every block chain?

 637 2013-04-26 03:41:34 <gmaxwell> Styles: if you run with a txindex you can use the getrawtransaction call to fetch all the historical transactions. (I'm not quite sure what you're asking)
 638 2013-04-26 03:41:48 <vrs> saracen: that evokes an amusing image, I was imagining a literal wallet swollen to the size of several potato bags and a thief trying to drag it away
 639 2013-04-26 03:41:52 <vrs> too big to steal
 640 2013-04-26 03:41:53 <Styles> gmaxwell well if I wanted to get a history of the whole network
 641 2013-04-26 03:42:29 <gmaxwell> Styles: well you can't find out about orphan blocks, since you don't have all of them.
 642 2013-04-26 03:42:37 <gmaxwell> and there is no way over the network to fetch them.

 646 2013-04-26 03:44:46 <Styles> gmaxwell I don't know enough about how bitcoin works to know what an orphan block is (Assuming it's a block that is bad?)
 647 2013-04-26 03:44:46 <gmaxwell> saracen: what, just assuming K had been zero and recovering the private key from each signature?
 648 2013-04-26 03:44:53 <vrs> hm kind of makes me wish I hadn't deleted my old relay node when bitcoind became too hungry for that small vps
 649 2013-04-26 03:45:00 <Styles> btw gmaxwell thank you for all the information so far.
 650 2013-04-26 03:45:09 <vrs> lots of vintage orphan blocks from 2011, probably have collector value by now
 651 2013-04-26 03:45:27 <gmaxwell> Styles: it's a block that didn't make it into the consensus. Usually they're not bad— just late.
 652 2013-04-26 03:45:43 <Styles> So what ends up happening to it?
 653 2013-04-26 03:45:55 <Styles> It gets added to the next or the transaction is rejected and has to be re-preformed?
 654 2013-04-26 03:46:19 <gmaxwell> Styles: it's as if it didn't exist, except all nodes that previously accepted it will reintroduce transactions that were in it and fell out of the chain back to the chain as they are able.

 672 2013-04-26 03:51:47 <saracen> Yeah
 673 2013-04-26 03:51:51 <Belxjander> so effectively the private key was "taken out" or was entirely null to start with?
 674 2013-04-26 03:52:03 <vrs> it would be interesting to find out how memory corruption can affect the key generation and if it constricts the keys space enough, search that space

 676 2013-04-26 03:52:57 <vrs> not that corruption is very likely to show up in in that particular part of memory
 677 2013-04-26 03:53:36 <gmaxwell> vrs: you can set any word of the privkey to zero and still have way more than enough entropy to make attacking it infesable.

 819 2013-04-26 05:19:18 <etotheipi_> sounds like we should've given 3 of the header version bytes to the timestamp
 820 2013-04-26 05:20:08 <etotheipi_> I'm pretty sure we're not going to get through 256 versions before 2068 or whenever that thing runs out

 822 2013-04-26 05:21:53 <diki> I have no idea how to deal with numbers like 12.3456 when entered into a text hield in a webpage
 823 2013-04-26 05:22:19 <diki> removing the dot and treating it as a whole number * 100000000 would still equal the same number as 123,456

 843 2013-04-26 05:28:10 <diki> Like if the user entered 12,3, I'd calculate how much I need to pad, then remove the separator and add the zeroes
 844 2013-04-26 05:29:12 <etotheipi_> diki: but on the upside. double-precision values apparently, actually have just barely enough mantissa precision to handle the full range of 0 to 21e14
 845 2013-04-26 05:29:51 <etotheipi_> I think that's why rounding is okay... because it's going to be exact anyway... you just want to avoid truncation
 846 2013-04-26 05:30:04 <diki> I'm not exactly a math person so when you start talking about numbers that have the letter 'e' and a 'mantissa' I kind of stop listening :P

 960 2013-04-26 07:28:10 <MWNinja> Once the hash rate is in place from asic then we could get 30 second blocks

 965 2013-04-26 07:32:31 <saivann> This has probably been discussed many times before, but I also wondered the same thing once. Is it due to the increasing number of blocks?

 967 2013-04-26 07:33:14 <MWNinja> then how does bitcoin benefit from all the new hash rate being added?  How do we utilize the processing power,
 968 2013-04-26 07:33:21 <Luke-Jr> saivann: there are a lot of different angles to it
 969 2013-04-26 07:33:40 <Luke-Jr> the most obvious being that's 20x more block headers everyone (even light nodes) needs to store
 970 2013-04-26 07:33:49 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: difficulty increases

 972 2013-04-26 07:34:10 <MWNinja> we just make it arbitrarily harder to process transactions
 973 2013-04-26 07:34:16 <Luke-Jr> there's also the factor of more frequent blocks resulting in more stale blocks, which wastes hashing
 974 2013-04-26 07:34:23 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: precisely
 975 2013-04-26 07:34:31 <saivann> MwNinja : The processing power actually increases the security without any change in the protocol, at the very least. And that is very important because the security must increase at the same time than its adoption.
 976 2013-04-26 07:34:32 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: that's the purpose of mining
 977 2013-04-26 07:34:42 <MWNinja> storage shouldn't be a concern, lets put the blockchain on peta-scale storage
 978 2013-04-26 07:35:01 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: every full node must store the blockchain. every light node must store block headers.
 979 2013-04-26 07:35:15 <saivann> Luke-Jr : I see
 980 2013-04-26 07:35:36 <saivann> Thanks for the summary
 981 2013-04-26 07:35:58 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: and again: there is no real benefit to reducing block time below 10 minutes
 982 2013-04-26 07:36:30 <saivann> Well, instant transactions I guess. But then again, double-spend detection can become more used I guess

 985 2013-04-26 07:36:57 <MWNinja> big benefit to 30 second irreverible transactions
 986 2013-04-26 07:37:00 <Luke-Jr> saivann: fast blocks don't make transactions any faster
 987 2013-04-26 07:37:09 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: but that's not possible
 988 2013-04-26 07:37:17 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: even with 30 second blocks, you'd still need to wait an hour
 989 2013-04-26 07:37:32 <saivann> Exactly :-) More weak confirmation == a few strong confirmation
 990 2013-04-26 07:38:52 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: the reason it's 6 confirms is because that's how many are in an hour on average

 992 2013-04-26 07:39:38 <MWNinja> right Luke-Jr but its arbitrary, litecoin goes faster
 993 2013-04-26 07:39:50 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: no, it doesn't.
 994 2013-04-26 07:40:04 i2pRelay has joined
 995 2013-04-26 07:41:11 <MWNinja> with 30 second blocks you would get 6 confirms in 3 minutes right?

 998 2013-04-26 07:41:41 <feral> its still only 3 minutes of hashing security
 999 2013-04-26 07:41:56 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: nope
1000 2013-04-26 07:42:21 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: you'd just need 120 blocks to get the same kind of confirmation that bitcoin gives you with 6
1001 2013-04-26 07:43:18 <saivann> 30 seconds blocks would just be much easier to revert. And you need 20x the amount of blocks to get the same security.
1002 2013-04-26 07:43:59 <MWNinja> well our networks will be 100x faster
1003 2013-04-26 07:44:07 <MWNinja> then 1000x faster
1004 2013-04-26 07:44:17 <saivann> Instant transactions wouldn't be faster
1005 2013-04-26 07:44:18 Ashaman has joined
1006 2013-04-26 07:44:48 <MWNinja> mining operations will be mobile too
1007 2013-04-26 07:45:24 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: no, the network would be slower
1008 2013-04-26 07:45:37 <Luke-Jr> because you'd bog it down with extra data for no benefit

1020 2013-04-26 07:51:26 <saivann> Luke-Jr : I thought it was possible with clients listening for unconfirmed transactions
1021 2013-04-26 07:51:29 <MWNinja> right with the current implementation of bitcoin, a merchant Point of sale system will place the risk on either the merchant, or processing company who would have to hold a hot wallet of large value

1026 2013-04-26 07:52:36 <Luke-Jr> MWNinja: I have a summary writeup/proposal for an extension that would allow instant transactions, but it requires trust between friends
1027 2013-04-26 07:52:40 <saivann> Luke-Jr : But then, the miner must participate in the attack, am-I right?
1028 2013-04-26 07:52:59 <Luke-Jr> saivann: more or less
1029 2013-04-26 07:53:06 <Luke-Jr> saivann: but not necessarily

1034 2013-04-26 07:54:06 <saivann> Luke-Jr : I see, fascinating
1035 2013-04-26 07:55:01 <Luke-Jr> saivann: and there are services like Hashpower.com which allow someone to just buy mining power
1036 2013-04-26 07:55:19 <Luke-Jr> so they could easily spend 30 BTC to get a good chance at finding the next block
1037 2013-04-26 07:55:25 <Luke-Jr> they get the 25 BTC subsidy + double spend

1039 2013-04-26 07:55:46 <saivann> In fact, in a perfect world without mining pool where Bitcoin is extremely decentralized, this attack would have too much chances to fail to be worth

1047 2013-04-26 08:00:27 <MWNinja> So far the best I can think of is that the merchant system uses a split key, where the customer only holds half the private key and can only spend with the merchant system (or redeemed to another wallet)

1207 2013-04-26 10:00:03 <The_Fly> anyone here who has played with the 0mq fork know if it sends all transactions or just those affecting the wallet?

1227 2013-04-26 10:13:09 <wumpus> using 0mq is more flexible and performant
1228 2013-04-26 10:14:49 <The_Fly> cool :)
1229 2013-04-26 10:14:58 <The_Fly> i need to adapt to send on walletnotify though
1230 2013-04-26 10:15:22 <The_Fly> and am unsure how to deal with the case where say my transaction processor is down
1231 2013-04-26 10:15:42 <The_Fly> in scrats case at least you have the tx hash on disk
1232 2013-04-26 10:15:53 <The_Fly> and can process next startup
1233 2013-04-26 10:16:23 <The_Fly> (in the case that bitcoind stays up but tx processor dies)

1242 2013-04-26 10:23:05 <The_Fly> ive merged the 0mq branch with master on the main bitcoin repo, hope it works / passes tests
1243 2013-04-26 10:24:18 <wumpus> I'm not sure if 0mq can handle durable queues, ie reliable messenging when one of the endpoints can go offline... may be that you want to use a more full-blown queue, such as rabbitmq

1247 2013-04-26 10:25:05 <The_Fly> thanks
1248 2013-04-26 10:25:20 <The_Fly> so i can take 0mq from bitcoind and sent to rabbitmq?
1249 2013-04-26 10:25:38 <wumpus> yes
1250 2013-04-26 10:25:52 <The_Fly> which will persist anything that was not ack'd by my database scripts
1251 2013-04-26 10:26:07 <The_Fly> and allow me to fetch later
1252 2013-04-26 10:26:12 <wumpus> that would be the official, scalable solution, a ghetto queue may well suffice in your case...

1258 2013-04-26 10:27:31 <The_Fly> well, might be a bad plan, i was asking in here about decoupling the p2p stuff from the wallets
1259 2013-04-26 10:27:56 <The_Fly> so i could keep private keys on separate boxes, sign transactions and send to the p2p node for transmittion over the network

1282 2013-04-26 10:42:24 <The_Fly> still didn't see :S

1290 2013-04-26 10:43:22 <Arnavion> `USE_ZMQ=1 make` is short-hand for `env USE_ZMQ=1 make` , no?

1292 2013-04-26 10:43:42 <The_Fly> Arnavion: yeah, i thought ${USE_ZMQ} would check the env

1499 2013-04-26 12:44:30 <nsh> and with two flags you can enable semaphore

1656 2013-04-26 13:58:29 <Plarkplark_> ok
1657 2013-04-26 13:58:33 <Plarkplark_> so that output is normal
1658 2013-04-26 13:58:38 <Plarkplark_> But my miner won't connect.... weird is that.
1659 2013-04-26 13:58:41 <bwen> I believe so

1664 2013-04-26 14:00:28 <bwen> maybe you'll have more chance in #bitcoin-mining I have no idea how cgminer connects to bitcoin.. i'm guessing its... properly... so maybe just an error (typo) in username / password

1813 2013-04-26 15:22:00 <bwen> I dont like the idea of bitcoin bank
1814 2013-04-26 15:22:19 <iwilcox> I've no problem with it.
1815 2013-04-26 15:22:20 <HM2> It's inevitable
1816 2013-04-26 15:22:36 <iwilcox> Provided they're made aware that they don't need a bank, and choose one anyway, that's fine.

1947 2013-04-26 16:06:29 <wumpus> all kinds of backup are fine, even putting their (encrypted) wallet on dropbox is ok, losing coins due to data loss appears to be a much larger risk than theft
1948 2013-04-26 16:06:35 <wumpus> at least if the mails I get is anything to go by
1949 2013-04-26 16:06:48 <HM2> sure
1950 2013-04-26 16:07:06 <HM2> external storage on a phone though is actually internal on many phones now
1951 2013-04-26 16:07:10 <wumpus> but yes, having a separate paper/offline wallet if you have a lot of coins is a good idea
1952 2013-04-26 16:07:13 <HM2> and even if it isn't, the card is still inside the phone

1997 2013-04-26 16:23:36 <CodeShark> might be a good idea to 1) not display warnings to output (but enable debug level messages in logs) and 2) to fix it :p
1998 2013-04-26 16:23:49 <gmaxwell> gavinandresen: The reason I suggest keeping the ==0 check in is that the motivation for it is somewhat different... and I think that someday we _may_ want to consider a network rule which actually prohibits 0 value outputs.

2069 2013-04-26 17:21:13 <gmaxwell> (or if there is one I'm not aware of it)
2070 2013-04-26 17:21:15 <TD> haha
2071 2013-04-26 17:21:26 <TD> it's a pretty normal level of flying shit for bitcoin indeed
2072 2013-04-26 17:21:54 <TD> so far we've had two pools get hacked, one exchange, one web wallet got hacked and became useless, another one revealed that their assurances around being unable to seize funds didn't hold
2073 2013-04-26 17:21:55 <gavinandresen> I unsubscribed from bitcoin/bitcoin.org github notifications, so I'm blissfully unaware
2074 2013-04-26 17:22:02 <BlueMatt> gavinandresen: thanks, no rush
2075 2013-04-26 17:22:13 <gmaxwell> (The thread HM2 was referring to is https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=188177.0 but I think it's mostly pretty boring ... no one as even suggested hiring assassins yet)
2076 2013-04-26 17:22:22 * BlueMatt just got notified that his dnsseed potentially had malware on it because it was connected to a known mining-botnet-operator
2077 2013-04-26 17:22:38 <TD> who gets to be listed as an interview contact turned into a giant argument. and for some reason i don't really understand a  bunch more "bitcoin foundation is run by the illuminati" threads sprung up
2078 2013-04-26 17:22:52 <TD> BlueMatt: oh? would be interested to learn more about that
2079 2013-04-26 17:23:47 <gmaxwell> BlueMatt: Pool operators get those constantly, and also get listed in anti-malware blacklists.

2083 2013-04-26 17:24:08 <BlueMatt> heh, yea, I cant say its surprising, I just found it interesting
2084 2013-04-26 17:24:14 <TD> there is/was also an attempt to spread trojaned multibits using a phishing site
2085 2013-04-26 17:24:58 <denisx> what means "WalletUpdateSpent found spent coin 5.76991777bc ee497d31438490fffaef86167434769d34938fb98546177c22243ce5f9d68656" in debug.log?
2086 2013-04-26 17:25:12 <BlueMatt> TD: meh, what else would they know?
2087 2013-04-26 17:25:19 <gmaxwell> denisx: it learned from the network that ee497d31438490fffaef86167434769d34938fb98546177c22243ce5f9d68656  spent a coin in your wallet.
2088 2013-04-26 17:25:39 <denisx> gmaxwell: ok, normal behavior?
2089 2013-04-26 17:25:43 <gmaxwell> TD: How complex was the trojaning? Was it even multibit?

2091 2013-04-26 17:25:57 <TD> it was quite well done
2092 2013-04-26 17:26:00 <gmaxwell> denisx: assuming thats a restored backup wallet or a copy of a wallet that is running someplace else.
2093 2013-04-26 17:26:17 <TD> it's a regular multibit that starts a new thread at startup. it calculates your balance and queries a c&c server with the balance as a url param
2094 2013-04-26 17:26:24 <TD> the server responds back with an address if your wallet is worth stealing
2095 2013-04-26 17:26:29 i2pRelay has joined
2096 2013-04-26 17:26:34 <TD> presumably as an attempt to beat traitor tracing
2097 2013-04-26 17:26:36 <gmaxwell> TD: I ask because all the trojans I've seen so far have been poor. E.g. there was "bitcoinqt" on sourceforge which was just some crackerjack wallet stealer written in visual basic.
2098 2013-04-26 17:26:37 <denisx> gmaxwell: no, it is a fresh wallet
2099 2013-04-26 17:26:55 <gmaxwell> denisx: uhhhh
2100 2013-04-26 17:27:01 <gmaxwell> denisx: as in never made a transaction before?
2101 2013-04-26 17:27:05 <TD> if you get back an address it creates a spend and broadcasts it, sending your wallet off into the ether
2102 2013-04-26 17:27:16 <denisx> gmaxwell: I made some transactions already
2103 2013-04-26 17:27:32 <TD> the website was a duplicate of the multibit website with a slightly different name and was being advertised via adwords. the campaign is dead and the site should be blacklisted soon, i think
2104 2013-04-26 17:27:54 <denisx> gmaxwell: but some of them suddenly get no confirmations (looks like it stopped working)
2105 2013-04-26 17:28:02 <gmaxwell> TD: I assume they paid for the adwords using some stolen CC? ::(
2106 2013-04-26 17:28:32 <TD> no clue. i haven't chased that up.
2107 2013-04-26 17:28:40 czaanja has joined
2108 2013-04-26 17:29:07 <TD> it seems the stealer code couldn't handle encrypted wallets, interestingly
2109 2013-04-26 17:29:14 <TD> and it was win/linux only. no mac.
2110 2013-04-26 17:29:29 <TD> not sure if that's due to lack of mac hardware by the attacker (likely) or gatekeeper (unlikely, at this stage in the game)

2122 2013-04-26 17:37:58 <jgarzik> not necessarily related, but: tin whiskers
2123 2013-04-26 17:38:13 <CodeShark> so the fix is to encase the circuitboards in lead? :)
2124 2013-04-26 17:38:35 <TD> for a long time, maybe they still do, Intel made special versions of very old chips , like 286 era
2125 2013-04-26 17:38:39 <jgarzik> hehe, would be nice if there were huge supplies of in-orbit lead, but alas
2126 2013-04-26 17:38:46 <TD> and the reason is those were the only chips on the market that were rad-hard

2134 2013-04-26 17:45:47 <CodeShark> I suppose another way to tackle the issue is with redundancy and error-correcting codes
2135 2013-04-26 17:45:55 <gmaxwell> CodeShark: oh sure. We observe obvious random bit errors in Bitcoin users from time to time— e.g. people have shown up with bits clearly flipped on blocks they accepted.
2136 2013-04-26 17:46:46 <gmaxwell> A fun thing is the bitsquatting paper where they registered 1 hamming distance variations of a number of highly popular domain names and got lots of traffic from confused clients.

2233 2013-04-26 18:32:43 <sipa> i can't do SHA256 by heart
2234 2013-04-26 18:33:03 <sipa> but you said "base58check encoding", so i assumed you didn't add the checksum yet
2235 2013-04-26 18:33:04 <ryan-c> echo -n 800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D01 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum | awk '{print$1}' | xxd -r -p | sha256sum

2246 2013-04-26 18:34:46 <ryan-c> sipa: Yeah, I'd already added the checksum

2462 2013-04-26 20:08:05 <helo> the fees required by a particular e-wallet depend on what the devs/management of that e-wallet have determined they will charge. blockchain.info sendmany isn't the same as bitcoind sendmany.
2463 2013-04-26 20:08:07 <EvilPete> nospinzy: 0.00005 is nearly pointless. It counts as "no fee attached", so if a fee is required, the network will reject it.

2472 2013-04-26 20:09:17 <EvilPete> A transaction will be sent without fees if these conditions are met:
2473 2013-04-26 20:09:17 <EvilPete>     It is smaller than 10 thousand bytes.
2474 2013-04-26 20:09:17 <EvilPete>     All outputs are 0.01 BTC or larger.
2475 2013-04-26 20:09:17 <EvilPete>     Its priority is large enough
2476 2013-04-26 20:09:32 <EvilPete> if you
2477 2013-04-26 20:09:56 <nospinzy> i got it down to .0002
2478 2013-04-26 20:09:58 <EvilPete> if you're sending 100-200 payments and any are below 0.01, then a fee is required
2479 2013-04-26 20:10:18 <nospinzy> i still need to figure out this api cause im inputing all this data in manually
2480 2013-04-26 20:10:25 <nospinzy> which is realy real dumb
2481 2013-04-26 20:10:36 <EvilPete> do read https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fees - if you don't follow the rules, you'll end up with an unconfirmable transaction

2487 2013-04-26 20:11:34 <sipa> it means that the sum of its input values multiplied by their age is large enough

2501 2013-04-26 20:16:00 <nospinzy> ok i figured out the problem
2502 2013-04-26 20:16:25 <EvilPete> nospinzy: some miners will mine fee-required txn's without fees, but only if they get to hear about them.    I don't know how long till bitcoind gives up trying to resend, vs using pywallet to fix it by removing the unconfirmable one from the wallet.dat file
2503 2013-04-26 20:16:41 <ProfMac> why not let the market take care of fees.  If there are larger fees to mine, the underpaid one will languish or even expire.
2504 2013-04-26 20:16:44 <nospinzy> i was trying in .00005 so it was just reverting to the fee of .0005 per kb , and was giving me a much larger fee or something

2519 2013-04-26 20:17:57 <theorbtwo> The market does take care of it, what's being described is the normal policy.

2524 2013-04-26 20:18:51 <nospinzy> and i never would have got into this if i didnt get small portions fo the coin
2525 2013-04-26 20:18:59 <gmaxwell> because they cannot spend the .00001 bitcoin you give them.

2532 2013-04-26 20:19:48 <gmaxwell> (and no, part of the problem is with payments sufficiently small they can never build up to become spendable, because they're less than the marginal fee impact)
2533 2013-04-26 20:19:58 <nospinzy> yes but they do it anyways
2534 2013-04-26 20:20:03 <nospinzy> i do it also
2535 2013-04-26 20:20:14 <nospinzy> because its interesting to let the free market work
2536 2013-04-26 20:20:20 <gmaxwell> It sure is.
2537 2013-04-26 20:20:30 <nospinzy> thats what this is about and already people are laying down the law
2538 2013-04-26 20:21:14 <gmaxwell> In any case, you've been given expert advice twice now and chosen to ignore it. Your warranty is void. Good luck, and I hope you don't mind being free market roadkill too much.

2587 2013-04-26 20:44:10 <EvilPete> err
2588 2013-04-26 20:44:11 <etotheipi_> nospinzy: if *all* you have in your wallet are those outputs... you can't spend them.  ever.  you have to *add* external money inputs in order to make them spendable
2589 2013-04-26 20:44:19 <EvilPete> 0.00001 BTC
2590 2013-04-26 20:44:31 <nospinzy> ok im listening go on
2591 2013-04-26 20:44:55 <EvilPete> suppose it takes 100 bytes to spend each 0.00001..
2592 2013-04-26 20:45:01 <nospinzy> .00001 x 1000 is .01

2596 2013-04-26 20:45:22 <nospinzy> you cant spend that? i guess you cant spend it because i spent it
2597 2013-04-26 20:45:27 <EvilPete> then spending 1000 x 0.00001 takes 100k transaction
2598 2013-04-26 20:45:43 <EvilPete> which requires 0.05 in fees
2599 2013-04-26 20:45:54 <nospinzy> the sender is paying the fees
2600 2013-04-26 20:45:57 <nospinzy> what dont you understand
2601 2013-04-26 20:45:57 <EvilPete> ie: you have to get more money to add as fees in order to send it
2602 2013-04-26 20:45:59 <nospinzy> not the receiveer
2603 2013-04-26 20:46:18 <EvilPete> and the receiver has to pay to spend them
2604 2013-04-26 20:46:36 <nospinzy> no kidding man, the sender is spending more then he is sending, thats not what we are talking about

2609 2013-04-26 20:47:04 <EvilPete> no, reciever pays 0.05

2615 2013-04-26 20:48:30 <EvilPete> How do you get 0.005? each of those separate 0.00001 inputs requires a slot in the tx
2616 2013-04-26 20:48:41 <EvilPete> it adds up
2617 2013-04-26 20:48:52 <nospinzy> its not each
2618 2013-04-26 20:48:56 <EvilPete> Yes, it is
2619 2013-04-26 20:48:59 <nospinzy> no its not
2620 2013-04-26 20:49:04 <nospinzy> iv done it before
2621 2013-04-26 20:49:16 <jgm> Short version: you can't lose money on each input in the transaction but make it up on the volume
2622 2013-04-26 20:49:21 <nospinzy> and it was said int he chat its .005 per so many kb's
2623 2013-04-26 20:49:32 <EvilPete> Nope, 0.0005 per kb

2641 2013-04-26 20:54:03 <EvilPete> 12:58 <gmaxwell> In any case, you've been given expert advice twice now and chosen to ignore it.

2653 2013-04-26 20:56:49 <nospinzy> i guess the minners fee is nonspendable aswell?
2654 2013-04-26 20:56:59 <nospinzy> then why aquire the fee in the first place

2672 2013-04-26 21:04:46 <nospinzy> and it will add to your total spendable coins

2677 2013-04-26 21:06:07 <nospinzy> if you collect 100 cents then yes you can spend them

2680 2013-04-26 21:06:36 <EvilPete> yeah, but if it costs 5 cents per 1 cent to spend, then they're "unspendable" without acquiring more
2681 2013-04-26 21:07:15 <nospinzy> tumak yea or i can send them a dollar and be out a whole hell of alot more money sending people bitcoins for doing things that generate small income
2682 2013-04-26 21:07:50 <tumak> well the nonspendable situation is super confusing for newbies
2683 2013-04-26 21:07:52 <nospinzy> im not sure how that plays into a proper buisness, only to satify someones theory
2684 2013-04-26 21:08:03 <EvilPete> if the purpose is to get people started... ie: they have no other bitcoins.. its not a good experience if they can't use them
2685 2013-04-26 21:08:09 <tumak> esp kids (12yo) who use those click sites and have no other way to exchange fiat
2686 2013-04-26 21:08:20 <nospinzy> thats my market
2687 2013-04-26 21:09:22 <nospinzy> if i give you a cent USD and i have to pay a transaction cost of 5 cents, what differnce does it make. im the one loosing out the 6 cents and you are gaining 1 cent. this is very hard for me to understand what you dont understand
2688 2013-04-26 21:09:42 <EvilPete> nospinzy: suppose a newbie acquires 1000 of those 0.00001 payments and wants to spend them.. their wallet will show a balance of 0.01 right?
2689 2013-04-26 21:09:58 <nospinzy> i am getting people started like i said this is what got me started, learning
2690 2013-04-26 21:10:09 <nospinzy> yes evilpete
2691 2013-04-26 21:10:10 <EvilPete> nospinzy: do you agree with that math?
2692 2013-04-26 21:10:18 <EvilPete> so.. to spend them requires
2693 2013-04-26 21:10:36 <nospinzy> .0005
2694 2013-04-26 21:10:38 <EvilPete> 188 bytes per 0.00001 x 1000 = 188kb transaction
2695 2013-04-26 21:10:45 <nospinzy> what?
2696 2013-04-26 21:10:46 <tumak> uh
2697 2013-04-26 21:10:49 <tumak> i think its less than 100

2705 2013-04-26 21:13:06 <EvilPete> yeah, that 188k transaction to spend the 1000 x 0.00001's means it costs 0.094 in fees to spend 0.01
2706 2013-04-26 21:13:09 <nospinzy> so the more a coin is spent the more data it carries?
2707 2013-04-26 21:13:17 Prattler has quit (Quit: ZNC - http://znc.in)
2708 2013-04-26 21:13:27 <gmaxwell> The more _distinct coins_ you are spending the more data.
2709 2013-04-26 21:13:33 <nospinzy> thats a flaw in bitcoin itself, i dnt know what you want me to do about it
2710 2013-04-26 21:13:35 ColinT has joined
2711 2013-04-26 21:13:55 <tumak> think of it as hard drive fragmentation
2712 2013-04-26 21:14:07 <nospinzy> with that login you wont be able to send 1 bitcoin because the data it carries from previous transaction will be so large
2713 2013-04-26 21:14:10 <tumak> s/hard drive/filesystem/ :)
2714 2013-04-26 21:14:15 <gmaxwell> If you make 0.01 payment to the person then they can spend that with 190 bytes. If you make 0.00001 payments then they need 180 bytes _per_ 0.00001.
2715 2013-04-26 21:14:18 <EvilPete> its not like a bank account where a balance gets 1 cent added to it. Its more like a wallet.. there's another coin jammed into the coin pocket.
2716 2013-04-26 21:15:03 <nospinzy> so people are going to start to not want coins that are used
2717 2013-04-26 21:15:08 <nospinzy> total flaw in the system
2718 2013-04-26 21:15:10 <gmaxwell> ... NO
2719 2013-04-26 21:15:12 <gmaxwell> fuck!
2720 2013-04-26 21:15:12 <gmaxwell> due
2721 2013-04-26 21:15:15 <gmaxwell> er dude
2722 2013-04-26 21:15:16 <EvilPete> bitcoin-qt only shows you the balance by adding up all the unspent outputs. Addresses don't have balances
2723 2013-04-26 21:15:25 <Luke-Jr> wow, how'd you get gmaxwell that upset? :o
2724 2013-04-26 21:15:36 <gmaxwell> nospinzy: is has JACK SHIT TO DO WITH "USED"
2725 2013-04-26 21:15:47 <nospinzy> USED meaning coins that are transacted alot
2726 2013-04-26 21:15:51 <EvilPete> nospinzy: its nothing to do with used. It is number of transactions.
2727 2013-04-26 21:15:53 <nospinzy> those transacted alot carry weight
2728 2013-04-26 21:15:58 <nospinzy> in data
2729 2013-04-26 21:16:00 <EvilPete> no they dont
2730 2013-04-26 21:16:03 <EvilPete> NO NO NO
2731 2013-04-26 21:16:04 <gmaxwell> No, that isn't how it works.
2732 2013-04-26 21:16:06 <nospinzy> then wtf are you talking about
2733 2013-04-26 21:16:13 <tumak> fragmentation
2734 2013-04-26 21:16:16 <EvilPete> each payment is separate. they're not merged.
2735 2013-04-26 21:16:25 <nospinzy> thats bullshit
2736 2013-04-26 21:16:26 <EvilPete> spending 10 payments takes 10 times as much data
2737 2013-04-26 21:16:26 <Luke-Jr> nospinzy: if you pay a $100 bill in pennies, that uses a lot of data
2738 2013-04-26 21:16:35 <gmaxwell> Transaction both split and merge coins. All coins take roughtly the same amount of data to spend.
2739 2013-04-26 21:16:52 <EvilPete> there is no "balance" in the bitcoin system. its just a convenience that your wallet offers you
2740 2013-04-26 21:16:54 <Luke-Jr> nospinzy: but the guy you paid has a clean $100 bill, he doesn't get your pennies

2743 2013-04-26 21:17:20 <tumak> because thats how "defragmentation" works in bitcoin
2744 2013-04-26 21:17:31 <tumak> whenever split or merge happens, it enlarges the tx
2745 2013-04-26 21:17:31 <EvilPete> nospinzy: you can merge coins by spending them.. they dont get merged when you receive them
2746 2013-04-26 21:17:36 <tumak> gosh, those are really layman terms
2747 2013-04-26 21:17:54 <nospinzy>  nospinzy: you can merge coins by spending them
2748 2013-04-26 21:18:02 <tumak> yup
2749 2013-04-26 21:18:08 <nospinzy> so the receiver is now the spender
2750 2013-04-26 21:18:10 <tumak> and that operation, split or merge
2751 2013-04-26 21:18:13 <tumak> must be paid for
2752 2013-04-26 21:18:29 <EvilPete> You could take 1000 x 0.00001 and pay 0.09 in fees to spend 0.01, and the resulting 0.01 would be spendable.  But you burn coins to do it.
2753 2013-04-26 21:18:34 <tumak> nospinzy: no, sender always pays the fee and does the splitting or merging
2754 2013-04-26 21:18:36 <gmaxwell> nospinzy: except he can't because you've paid him in such tiny bits of dust that the merging txn would have to pay very high fees, if it were permitted at all.

2762 2013-04-26 21:19:38 <gmaxwell> tumak: whoever the reciever sends them to next.
2763 2013-04-26 21:19:39 <tumak> what about 100x0.00001
2764 2013-04-26 21:19:41 <EvilPete> nospinzy: the bottom line is the deployed bitcoin network's fee structure is unsuited to what you want to do.
2765 2013-04-26 21:19:48 <tumak> thats 18kb
2766 2013-04-26 21:19:54 <tumak> not that harsh on network
2767 2013-04-26 21:19:59 <gmaxwell> tumak: and below 0.01 so you must provide a 0.0005 fee.
2768 2013-04-26 21:20:10 <tumak> ie 0.001 for 0.0005 fee?
2769 2013-04-26 21:20:13 <tumak> not likely for 18kb tx
2770 2013-04-26 21:20:16 <jgm> You go to the bank with your big bag of pennies and the teller looks at you and says "Sure I'll change them.  It'll cost you 3 cents per penny to change it up because anything less isn't worth my time."
2771 2013-04-26 21:20:18 <tumak> how much fee for 18kb tx?

2780 2013-04-26 21:21:24 <tumak> gmaxwell: well, lets hypothetize tx fees are related to dust (destroying dust is subsidized, creating dust is taxed)

2949 2013-04-26 22:21:16 <HM2> yep, and facial unlocking can often be tricked the same way
2950 2013-04-26 22:22:17 <HM2> and if you can bypass the physical input and feed raw data in, they're all vulnerable to replay attack
2951 2013-04-26 22:23:36 <gmaxwell> the handscanners they use at the equinix data center will let you enroll your hand if you only put one finger in the scanner... this has the advantage of almost never rejecting you, so you never have to retry. It also doesn't reject other people...
2952 2013-04-26 22:23:36 <BlueMatt> gmaxwell: rewrote block-tester to store blocks on disk so I can make the reorg infinite size, how big was your recommendation again?
2953 2013-04-26 22:23:47 <EvilPete> HM2: we ended up using one with a 3d laser scanner and switched it to be an additional factor rather than the only method

2956 2013-04-26 22:24:35 <gmaxwell> BlueMatt: I think I was suggesting around 2k blocks. The idea being that we really want to support blocks on the order of 100 deep, and so testing 10-20x more than that is probably prudent.
2957 2013-04-26 22:25:01 <HM2> What's chip & pin adoption like in the US?
2958 2013-04-26 22:25:14 <EvilPete> gmaxwell: I remember the siteops guys going for a "high score".. trying to get the worst match possible that still let them in

2999 2013-04-26 22:41:43 <min0r1> interesting mitigation to the  51% attack. it was my understanding a miner can include 0 transactions if they find a block....
3000 2013-04-26 22:42:09 <gmaxwell> well, 0 non coinbase transactions at least.
3001 2013-04-26 22:42:24 <nsh> gmaxwell, do you not expect the total number of mining parties to decrease after the difficulty adjustments brought about by ASIC prevalence?
3002 2013-04-26 22:42:28 <sipa> Goonie_: hi
3003 2013-04-26 22:42:50 <HM2> gmaxwell: why is that allowed? don't such transactions do nothing to further the network?
3004 2013-04-26 22:43:13 <sipa> Goonie_: i was wondering about your key dump file format

3007 2013-04-26 22:43:43 <gmaxwell> nsh: in the short term, perhaps a bit— in the long term, harder to say. A lot of people decided that asics were a time to get into mining... and the asics should remove competition from botnets.
3008 2013-04-26 22:44:15 <gmaxwell> HM2: because you can't usefully deny it, and those block still do further the interest of the network, as they add difficulty to a reorg attack.
3009 2013-04-26 22:46:17 <Goonie_> sipa: yes

3012 2013-04-26 22:46:50 <min0r1> gmaxwell: napkin math tells me a 1Gh/sec chip on a <50nm process would cost around 2-3 million for the film , chips would be $3 each... 50Thash = $150,000 ... pretty cheap for an attacker considering the market cap is $1.5 billion
3013 2013-04-26 22:47:07 <min0r1> but if they're forced to include real transactions in the blocks, then i guess who cares ;)
3014 2013-04-26 22:47:43 <sipa> Goonie_: i've thinking of having a "key interchange" format for a while, as that's a lot easier than getting actual wallets be compatible
3015 2013-04-26 22:47:46 <HM2> and as soon as it was made apparent the market cap wouldn't be $1.5bn :P

3036 2013-04-26 22:53:22 <gmaxwell> (it takes approximately a diff of 1.1 million to make avalons at $0.3/kwh power and $150 exchange rates merely break even vs power costs)
3037 2013-04-26 22:53:59 <gmaxwell> min0r1: this is pretty far afield of development though, if you want to talk more about it I'm in #bitcoin too.
3038 2013-04-26 22:54:04 <HM2> $0.3/kwh seems expensive.
3039 2013-04-26 22:54:37 <gmaxwell> HM2: it's what I pay. It only strenghtens my point there if you assume less.

3043 2013-04-26 22:55:28 <min0r1> gmaxwell: sure... my main question was already answered re: mitigating 51% attack... i still think its an interesting thought experiment for devs to keep in mind the instantaneous cost of controlling 50% of hashrate, which right now is less then 1% of the market cap
3044 2013-04-26 22:55:32 <gmaxwell>         private static final int NUMBER_OF_ITERATIONS = 1024;
3045 2013-04-26 22:55:35 <gmaxwell> ?! :(
3046 2013-04-26 22:55:47 <HM2> gmaxwell: you're assuming that people will invest until profit margins are reduced right? doesn't that factor out the possibility that people will be more cautious given volatility?
3047 2013-04-26 22:55:49 <Goonie_> sipa: and the text format is implemented in http://code.google.com/p/bitcoin-wallet/source/browse/wallet/src/de/schildbach/wallet/util/WalletUtils.java (methods readKeys and writeKeys)
3048 2013-04-26 22:56:26 <min0r1> gmaxwell: and i agree that mining factor will eventually normalize to the cost of electricity + hardware.
3049 2013-04-26 22:56:37 <gmaxwell> HM2: you're not in #bitcoin

3056 2013-04-26 22:59:08 <fishfish> hi guys, I hope this isn't a stupid question. On the testnet I've backedup my wallet. I then created a new address, and sent that address 10% of the content of the wallet. Stopped the server, replaced the new wallet dat with the new one, run getbalance and ... i can still see the balance. how is that possible?

3073 2013-04-26 23:04:52 <sipa> Goonie_: though bip32 itself specifies a serialization format too
3074 2013-04-26 23:05:32 <sipa> so perhaps it's just easier to instead of having base58 encoded secret keys in your format, have base58 encoded extended secret keys
3075 2013-04-26 23:06:15 <Goonie_> can extended secret keys be distinguished from the plain secret keys?
3076 2013-04-26 23:06:31 <sipa> yes

3114 2013-04-26 23:18:16 <gmaxwell> Goonie_: what if there is a reorg, do you resync the whole chain?
3115 2013-04-26 23:18:17 <sipa> ok sure, but then you can just store the timestamp of the first seen block affecting an address?
3116 2013-04-26 23:18:25 <Goonie_> gmaxwell: Only on user request. Its not done automatically.
3117 2013-04-26 23:18:25 <sipa> during sync
3118 2013-04-26 23:18:33 <gmaxwell> Goonie_: wut
3119 2013-04-26 23:18:47 <gmaxwell> Goonie_: you mean the client just fails one a day or so?

3121 2013-04-26 23:19:25 <sipa> Goonie_: i think 'only on user request' was an answer to querying blockchain
3122 2013-04-26 23:19:30 <Goonie_> a reorg cannot go more than I think 5000 blocks deep, that's the size of the header cache
3123 2013-04-26 23:19:30 <sipa> eh blockexplorer
3124 2013-04-26 23:20:11 <sipa> Goonie_: wait, at which point do you need to reconstruct a date for an address?
3125 2013-04-26 23:20:17 <Goonie_> yes, blockexplorer is only requested if the user picks "determine key creation date" from the conetxt menu of a key
3126 2013-04-26 23:20:21 <sipa> only when importing an old key, right?

3128 2013-04-26 23:21:08 <Goonie_> sipa: Bitcoin Wallet can do without key creation dates. But it will disable checkpoints and fast catchup, so replay will take much more time.

3131 2013-04-26 23:21:51 <sipa> Goonie_: right, but any key either generated by yourself, or imported from a file that has creation date, retains the creation dat?
3132 2013-04-26 23:22:56 <Goonie_> yes, the key creation date is a field of the ECKey class and is serialized/deserialized and imported/exported
3133 2013-04-26 23:23:02 <sipa> ok, perfect
3134 2013-04-26 23:23:18 <sipa> so the only problem is really backward compatibility where you import a key that doesn't have a creation time
3135 2013-04-26 23:25:09 <Goonie_> I'm not sure what to reply. There is no problem because Bitcoin Wallet/bitcoinj can completely do without the date.
3136 2013-04-26 23:25:35 <Goonie_> If being slow is a problem, then the null date can stem from any source
3137 2013-04-26 23:25:41 <Goonie_> including just an old installation

3145 2013-04-26 23:30:30 <sipa> Goonie_: the difference, i guess, is that the 'old installation' problem is not an issue for bitcoin-qt, as you can just look at the oldest transaction in the wallet to find address ages
3146 2013-04-26 23:31:05 dino__ has joined
3147 2013-04-26 23:31:06 <sipa> importing without creation date is still slow, but that's the same as it is now

3150 2013-04-26 23:32:42 <Goonie_> sipa: For some reason we decided this is unreliable. Maybe because transactions do not have a date. Its only artificial.

3153 2013-04-26 23:33:28 <sipa> transactions know in which block they are, block headers have timestamps with a known maximum deviation
3154 2013-04-26 23:33:35 <sipa> (in bitcoin-qt)
3155 2013-04-26 23:33:52 <Goonie_> which leads back to the problem that SPV clients do not have blocks
3156 2013-04-26 23:34:04 <sipa> i don't see why you need blocks for that :)
3157 2013-04-26 23:34:08 <Goonie_> but yes, bitcoin-qt has got that luxury
3158 2013-04-26 23:34:10 <phantomcircuit> SPV clients should have the block headers
3159 2013-04-26 23:34:21 <phantomcircuit> it's a very small amount of data...

3164 2013-04-26 23:34:40 <sipa> well 18 MB is not nothing for phones
3165 2013-04-26 23:34:47 <phantomcircuit> sipa, srsly?
3166 2013-04-26 23:35:00 <sipa> it's not very much either, but it's not trivial
3167 2013-04-26 23:35:02 <phantomcircuit> i haven't had a phone in years that didn't have that much space
3168 2013-04-26 23:35:27 <Goonie_> getting 18665680 blocks from the network takes several hours. We don't want to go back to these dark ages of mobile wallets.
3169 2013-04-26 23:35:40 <phantomcircuit> that's bytes
3170 2013-04-26 23:35:43 <phantomcircuit> not blocks
3171 2013-04-26 23:35:54 <Goonie_> sorry quoted the wrong number
3172 2013-04-26 23:36:25 <phantomcircuit> and getting 233321 HEADERS should take minutes at most
3173 2013-04-26 23:36:53 <helo> storing 18mb is a piece of cake for any android phone you can buy (or get for ~free)
3174 2013-04-26 23:37:21 <helo> probably cake for any android phone ever made
3175 2013-04-26 23:37:38 <phantomcircuit> you'd be hard pressed to find a phone that can run an spv client but doesn't have 100's of MB of space
3176 2013-04-26 23:37:59 <sipa> Goonie_: anyway, i didn't want to get into this discussion... just saying that reliably inferring a safe lower bound for dates is easy in bitcoin-qt
3177 2013-04-26 23:38:02 <Goonie_> sipa: I think bitcoin-qt should complete all missing key creation dates
3178 2013-04-26 23:38:05 <jouke> as long as it is stored on the sd card
3179 2013-04-26 23:38:09 <sipa> Goonie_: agree
3180 2013-04-26 23:38:46 <Goonie_> helo: You obviously did not ever own an Android 2.3 device
3181 2013-04-26 23:39:02 * sipa had an Android 1.5
3182 2013-04-26 23:39:58 <Goonie_> sipa: so if you have creation dates for all keys, you can easily add fields to the format or use an alternative record for xprv keys.
3183 2013-04-26 23:40:28 <sipa> Goonie_: assuming multibit also ignores everything after the first 2 columns
