thank you very much!

Hi,

I just wanted to withdraw some coins from cryptsy (YAC to be precise) and
every time I requested the withdrawal and confirmed it a red little window showed up
in the lower left corner with an error message:

A security error has occured in your request.
Reload page and try again.


Tried it several times, even logged out and in again.

Does anyone know what is going on ?

I'm against using micro-bitcoin now so we can switch to bitcoin later (when? - not a good idea: confusing!).

The idea about defining the standard as 1e-6 isn't that bad. I think the two decimals for regular consumers might be a good idea.
BTW that could also be called hSatoshi (hecto Satoshi) according to SI-standards.


And again our beloved American(s) are unaware that they are not alone on the planet and that their customs are not
necessarily the global standard!

Every "big" economy uses their currency as the base currency and all others as counter currencies.
It might be standard in the US to quote the Euro as USDEUR or USD/EUR
but in Europe all currencies are counter currencies to the EUR => EURUSD, EURGBP, EURCHF, etc.
I assume that China and Japan act the same way.

Since BTC is a global, nation-less currency (and the biggest of all crypto-currencies for that matter) the only logical step is to quote
BTCXXX (including BTCUSD). What is more, the base currency is usually regarded as dominant / of more value.

Thank you!

sure! for ordering pizza.

I know at least one in person.

Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately this confuses me

I do not have an infected computer. I assume that any computer which has ever been connected to the internet is potentially infected.

So in your proposed solution

a) I still don't know how to get a clean ubuntu (because I would have to download it - so again internet - again pot. infection)
b) I would connect my 'clean' computer to the internet - even if it is through tor - it still has a connection to the internet and therefore security is potentially breached.

Unless I don't get it...

Hi,

I am looking for a secure wallet for quite some time now and there are several solutions
but I still have some questions since I always have my doubts about these solutions in one way or another.

So for creating an offline wallet you will need a clean system AND a bitcoin client or some other software to create your wallet.

For a clean system I could use a windows installation cd or mac installation cd - ok (let's assume they are ok).

But what if wanted to use ubuntu for example. I would have to download the system with my online system and burn it to cd or copy it to a usb drive. Same goes for the client or any other software which will create the pub/priv-keypair.
How do I get to download absolutely securely???

As far as I know I have to assume that my online system is already compromised and
the moment I put by usb drive into my online computer it potentially gets infected, too.

So how do I get the needed apps/programs onto my offline system without compromising it?

Thanks for your help!

PS Same goes for truecrypt for additionally encrypting the wallet.dat

Sorry if you feel offended. That wasn't my intention.
The majority didn't seem to think it's necessary (at least that was what I was getting from the majority of comments.)

It's interesting, that the 'powers-to-be' yet again decide what the subjects need or want.
But that is another story...

Just because you're an technical person doesn't mean that you want to spent hours on a search engine if it could be so much easier for everyone.
Of course I can use Google and/or the search function of the forum but it is simply inefficient and sometimes even partially ineffective.
If every coin had it's own section, you could just hop between coin infos and could always find the latest news/hottest topics of a particular currency.

As it is every time you come back you have to redo the search and manually/visually have to filter out the crap.

But never mind. Obviously nobody sees the need for it so I won't bother trying to convince anyone anymore.
It's a mystery to me but whatever.

Thanks for reading & commenting, though.

wanted to upgrade lately but then I saw the keynote about Maverick and decided to wait a few more months

crashes upon start.
thanks anyway

Because it is a stupid idea.
It might have a psychological effect but that doesn't suffice to justify such a radical measure.

Why don't we change the currencies' ISO code every time a currency appreciates or devalues.
Because it's important to have stability with every currency.

What do you do when Bitcoin drops down to 30 dollars or even 5 or 2 dollars in the next six months (it's possible)?
Switch back to BTC?

It is a stupid idea as long as Bitcoin isn't relatively stable AND very widely used.
Once it's every other day in the mainstream media such a change could happen without utterly confusing people.
(But we are very far away from that)

If you want to read about several currencies you end up with hundreds of bookmarks within days.

yeah great - have you actually tried this search box?

a) time restrictions
b) you get a lot of shit you weren't looking for at all
c) if you look for a particular currency a lot of posts come which do not even have anything to with them just because somwhere in the thread someone posted something like: ah another ppc/ devcoin / freicoin copy

Actually I really don't understand why this isn't evident and regarded as a massive flaw.
For people who develop software logic and structure shouldn't be words that trigger fear or disdain.

OK, I am fine with that.
But is it really to much to ask to organize the post according to the currency it relates to.

Let's have a list of currencies then and a link to there forum. Fine!

But what we have now simply doesn't make any sense any longer!

Really that's the best you can do?

Honestly, suppose you come here and find something about a new coin and you're interested in it.
A few hours later you want see whether there have been any new threads about this coin.
By then it has already moved to page 17 or something and you can't find it anymore.
Whom does this help?

Because everyone comes here first for Bitcoin and then starts reading about other coins.
Secondly this forum is clearly the center of the Bitcoin AND Alt. Crypto communities.
Unless an announcement about a new coin / currency isn't posted here it doesn't exist.
(Even ripple had to post here and give hugh giveaways to gain some traction - ok, it backfired but still).

This messy sub forum for all cryptos is simply overwhelming and non informative anymore.

Since the time of only LTC and NMC as altcurrencies have clearly passed and every other day new coins pop up
I really think we need to have a much better structure in this sub forum!

Here's what I propose:

Once you enter the alternate currencies sub forum there are sticky topics like:

- List of all currencies
- General information about alternate crypto currencies
- Comparing crypto currencies with one another

and then sub forum for every single coin in alphabetical order in the following format:


LTC - Litecoin (ALIVE)
NMC - Namecoin (ALIVE)
PPC - Peer2PeerCoin (ALIVE)
SBC - SuperBitCoin (Announced)
SHC - Shitcoin (Dead)
...


Every thread should be moved to its own sub forum.
Whenever in doubt wether to put into one or another (e. g. discussion about different properties / features of several currencies)
put into the sub forum which it relates to most and post a link the other related sub forums

Example:

Is Litecoin really better than all other scrypt based cryptos?

=> thread gets moved to LTC-Litecoin subforum and a link to the thread gets posted in all the other scypt based currencies.


What do you think?

ATM this massive flood of post for all the different currencies is just to messy. You simply can't find anything you're looking for.
