However how do I actually check the .dmg file that contains the installer is the right one?
If I run:
I get:
That's because the files themselves are not pgp signed and do not have any signatures.If I run:
Code:
gpg --verify bitcoin-0.13.0-osx.dmg
I get:
Code:
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: the signature could not be verified.
Please remember that the signature file (.sig or .asc)
should be the first file given on the command line.

Greetings and thank you very much for this guide. I try to work best practices into as much of my computing as possible but using GPG has defeated my time/need/interest matrix for awhile.
What files do contain the signatures that we are supposed to be verifying? The OP's guide says,"Bitcoin developers and other interested people sign every release of Bitcoin Core using gitian." I thought this meant if I download a .sig file from the gitian page on GitHub, I could run 'gpg --verify' on the new program I downloaded from bitcoin.org to verify its authenticity.
After I've imported the public PGP keys & downloaded the assert.sig file from GitHub, when i run gpg --verify I get the following:
ninjasmurf$ gpg --verify /Users/ninjasmurf/Desktop/bitcoin-dmg-signer-build.assert\(1\).sig /Users/ninjasmurf/Desktop/bitcoin-0.13.0-osx64.tar.gz
gpg: Signature made Wed Oct 14 11:04:19 2015 EDT using RSA key ID 2346C9A6
gpg: BAD signature from "Wladimir J. van der Laan <laanwj@gmail.com>" [unknown]
Why does this come back with a BAD signature?
Thanks in advance. Have a sweet day.
Handled it nicely? Real businesses do not get their bank accounts shut down. He says he is registered with FinCen on his website. He obviously has NO IDEA what he is doing and has no right to have been running a business and assuring people he did know what he was doing. SCAMMER or complete incompetent. Either way, a real blight on the BTC PR image. Thanks a lot for setting us back. Great PR.
I'm sorry you are a complete and utter idiot. I try to refrain from name-calling - but - as frozenlock mentioned: " REAL BUSINESSES " ? (WTF dude) do they also not get paypal accounts frozen or credit card chargebacks? Banks freeze whatever accounts they want to, this isn't the first time this has happened and it isn't the last. Basing your judgement of Roman's level of competence on his bank account being frozen shows pretty clearly that you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
By the way, I not only have an opportunity to school you in value judgement based on the behavior of external institutions with a 100+ year record of flagrant corruption, but also in post quoting etiquette. My post was extremely long and you only responded to one small part of it - where I claimed that Roman handled it nicely. Quote etiquette demands that you prune when the opportunity is obvious.
Have a nice day! "Real businesses" lol. Real businesses don't get credit card chargebacks or paypal freezes in your bizarre-o fantasy world... stop smoking the fiat money and get in touch with reality bro.
+1 Certainly put more nicely than I would have...
Is there a newer build for OSX 10.8 ?
+1Re: connection errors with mining clients when pointing to pool
greetings. i am getting this error as well.
i think that it is Lion's fault.
i installed Lion on the machine that I mined with under Snow Leopard.
my miner couldn't connect, i got the same errors.
i reinstalled Snow Leopard and it is mining again fine.
any help will be tipped generously once the ASCIs come out

heya. i have a question. should i get different registration IDs when i register browsers on different computers? i got the same one just now. why is that? thanks in advance.
hey folks, add me to the list of folks who can't get this to work.
i believe the problem comes from the Lion operating system.
i've always mined on my iMac(late 2007 -- i know only CPU mining, horrible hashrate, come on ASCIs!!!). when i installed lion, my miner was no longer able to connect. i get the same error message.
i reinstalled snow leopard and mining works again!
i'd like to be able to update my OS and still mine even in my limited way.
any help would be greatly appreciated. have a lustrous day.

Consider maybe adding captcha? It seems its being botted .. I cant get an entry in if I hit F5 fast enough now =(
yeah, there's a lot of traffic these days. I haven't been able to get on in a while. are bots why somebody was able to buy it out from under me today when the counter said there were 73 seconds to go? have a swell day.

Re: [~1200 Gh/s Mining Pool] SSL, API, instant payouts,LP,+1% for NO INVALID BLOCKS
thanks for the primer.
your english is better than my bitcoin-ese. also, i've earned 0.0006 BTC but nothing shows up in the bitcoin program which i gather is my BTC wallet. are payouts only made when i have at least 1 BTC? thanks again.

The miner's task is to find a special combination of numbers, hash of which will be lower than specified value. This happens rarely, so miners are submitting not only the winning one but others that are low, but not low enough, so pool can see that you are really trying and not just waiting. Each one of those results is a proof-of-work and we call it a share.
One of those will be low enough to create a new block.
i will write to you what i think i understand from your explanation. please let me know if i miss something. so 1 share = 1 hash found. no all share/hashes are winning, but all demonstrate to the network that i am an honest miner. my miner is working at 1470 khash/s, etc. on coming up with a hash to submit to earn a share. some of these hashes are winning. winning hashes create a block. what is a block? One of those will be low enough to create a new block.

howdy y'all minin' fools. i want to second the thanks to tycho for the quick responses. i've never seen a forum so well moderated and by only one (?) person! secondly, i'd like to continue my brand-newbian collection of basic info: what is a share and what is its relation to the amount of bitcoins that i've earned? i've finally found some hashes (using a CPUminer) and i think that i've got a share for each hash. is that right? any info will be greatly appreciated. have a kickin' day.
hello macCompiler. thanks for putting the time in for us brand-newbians. when you have a moment could you look at where i'm at? i run your snazzy little program thusly:

it remains this way ad infinitum. what is CURL? i ran a test by putting in a gibberish use/pass and got the same output. i am able to long into deepbit's website with the username/password that i used here. see what i'm missing? by the way, if there is a good guide out there somewhere you'd rather i scour instead of bugging you with questions, don't hesitate to point me in its direction. good night.

Re: [~1000 Gh/s Mining Pool] HTTPS/SSL, instant payouts,LP,+1% for NO INVALID BLOCKS
greetings all. i am brand spanking new and i'm unable to log in using RPCminer. i get the same response (see below) when i give my correct login and when i give it gibberish. this leads me to believe that i am entering the site name, port, username or password wrong. i can use the username and password to login to deepbit.net. if anyone sees anything in the printout below, please let me know. thanks for your time. happy mining.
