Oops. Used the wrong number in the entropy calculation. Add one bit, the
division by 2 wasn't supposed to be used in the entropy calculati

Thank you for this reference. Interesting to see that there is a tool to
generate a vanity bitcoin address.
I am still researching viruses that are designed to manipulate a bitcoin
address. I suspect they are primitive in that they us
I didn't consider that, thank you for feedback! I will try to find
some time for implementing it. I'll write again then.

Hello all,
The number of incidents involving malware targeting bitcoin users continues to
rise. One category of virus I find particularly nasty is when the bitcoin
address you are trying to send money to is modified before the transaction is
signed and recorded in the block chain. This behavi

My concerns come from 2 projects that could easily raise the current

Think legal bittorrent file sales: ebooks, indie music (albums and

IMO it's better to pair a protocol spec with an implementation. For one, it
can show up issues in the design you didn't think of. For another,
implementation is a lot more work than speccing out a
I know about that wiki page. I just wanted to design protocol which
