This is an image of the coinabul man.

Jay Shore / Nolan Gisser is probably just the same guy with different emails and aliases, but those names could be fake.

But it should be possible to track the person down when you know how he looks like.

He has some ties to Encinitas, California. He probably grew up there. And it is a pretty small city with 60000 people.

So if one where to go around town showing this picture one would eventually find somebody who knew who he was. Probably his parents
still live there.

It is also possible to go to the police and report that various cases that he is scamming and collecting money for goods
not delivered.

Ok,

Now with all the talk about malleability. What is the proper way to make payments from a program with bitcoin-qt ?

If one wants to make automated payments and be able later to track down the transaction what is now the current best practices to do that?

Should one still just do:
sendtoaddress      Returns the transaction ID if successful.

txid is usable with bitcoin-qt or totally unreliable? The value you got from sendtoaddress can change to something else in bitcoin-qt?
Some say that you should keep the timestamp. How do you get that? And will the value be exactly the same on blockchain.info, or
do you have to look around and find a transaction that has roughly the same value?
Some say you should keep input addresses. How to get that?

Better to use raw transactions? But it seems more difficult and requires a lot of manual work.

And what to do if a transaction does not go through. -Just wait more?
sendtoaddress will keep the transaction active in the net until it eventually goes through?

I can not see any way justice being served and Mark Gox coming out of this ordeal with any coins to his name.

It is (supposedly) most likely at XXX, since the client will use old coins/transactions when sending 5 BTC from XXX to YYY.

If Gox does not re-appear with the money rather quickly I can no see no way of getting away with this without doing hard jail time.

If you steal a car and the police catch you they throw you in jail. You steal millions of dollars in scamming and ponzi-scheeming you are going to just walk away?

I have had a sneaking suspicion that since he had shut down transfer of bitcoin out of Mtgox. Mtgox could transfer bitcoins out themselves and sell on other exchanges.
People desperately dumping Bitcoins at Mtgox, and Mark and Mtgox buying and transferring out of Gox and selling on other exchanges.

Seems strange that you run a business and don't have any numbers on how much money you made/lost every month.
And that you are not able to consolidate some numbers on a day to day basis on how much cash, btc, losses, customer accounts etc.
Then it should be possible to see quickly if money is disappearing.

This must be trolling.

How many would I need to make a good profit? ... 
Lmao.

If they are going to rebrand. It should be something else than gox.

When you have a history of goxing, and finally you gox yourself into the ground. Gox is not the first thing I associate with quality and anti-gox-like behaviour.

By ladyfriend I ment that old woman at BFL. Jody.
Can't imagine that anybody can love him, everybody hates him.
He will probably be popular in jail with the older convicts.

About that personal info about Josh and his lady friend -

BFL is a company so there are some limited liability to the people involved. But there is nothing stopping the CEO and upper management to go to jail if convicted.
Also the company has to shut down if it is bankrupt and then the customers has claims to the money they have paid.

For sure I think they are operating in a legal gray area with all the broken promises / lies / the way they treat customers and denying people
to cancel orders that are dragging out months and years.

The monarch big black hole. Very good image.

Here are some images that BFL tries to "censor". If you try to post something on their forum, it is shut down in minutes.

They have a guy hired to delete everything that is not fanboy like.

Talk about a company with no sense of humor.

I am just wondering what is happening in the wallet.dat file in the standard bitcoin client.

Can anybody explain the high level functionality in a way a layman can understand?

First I thought the file was just a list of private keys. But it does not seem to be the case.

I see in the log:
Flushed wallet.dat 408ms
AddToWallet xxxxxxxx  new

Why does it need to write anything to the file when
it is starting up (rescanning). I thought it was only needed to write to wallet.dat when generating a new address.



Don.

I watched the video, but it is all just bs really.
I think one have to look at mining as a way to distribute coins and more as a market function than "cost per transactions" and "kw per transactions".
When you strip away the incentive to get coins from mining, you could currently run the entire bitcoin on one low end PC, the database and transactions processing etc.
So when you don't get any more new coins the mining, then the cost of transactions becomes apparent.

Just guarantee that any outstanding extra credit will be paid, and then implement whatever you want. And tell people when you
have made up your mind what you think is best.

Then people can accept the changes, or go somewhere else.

As long as all the people who have outstanding extra credit gets paid. The problem is if somebody who have been doing work is going to be dealt
the short stick and not get paid in this switch.
