ATTENTION: Anyone mining at cncoin.farm, watch out for increased fees. I'd like people to spread the hash around. Looks like some solo mining has dropped off or something. I'll wait a bit and see how it goes, but I think I should just up it to 3% now as a kicker.

thank you. If all I want to do is create an address to send BBR to cold storage can I do that with simplewallet even before the blockchain synch is complete?
My first thought was to use simple wallet but the guide here said that my password would be created in my command history and I was not sure how to solve that:
http://boolberry.com/howto.html#wallet"To generate a new wallet, use this command:
simplewallet --generate-new-wallet="path\to\file\want_to_be_reach.bin"
You will then be prompted for a password. There is an option to enter the password on the command line, but then the password will be saved in your command history which can be read by others."
If you haven't already gone past that point, your history isn't saved in Windows anyway (unless something changed in windows 8 I guess). You probably just don't want to add the --password option anyway, and just type it in. It just means if you put it on the command line like --password "MySecret" then someone could come to your computer and hit the up arrow to get to that password. Just don't set that and it will ask you for a password. You don't have to sync. Just send to that address.
