On Windows 8 I get a "bitpayd failed to load" message.  I have tried running as Administrator and no luck. Ideas?

The new QT on Mac works perfectly fine, however the client for Mac crashes every time during Setup Wizard.
I'm on OS X Yosemite. Anybody experiencing the same issue?

I had the same issue with windows. Do you have the wallet shutdown before you try to load up the client? They can't work simultaneously.
Sorry if you already knew this - just throwing it out to ya in case you missed it.

The issue may be with the bitbayd build. Its run as a subprocess and there are some mac systems it doesnt run on. If you can PM me, we can get that working for you.

Hi David,
I see at least three domains, thebitbay.org, bitbaymarket.net, and bitbay.market.
Which one do you host?

Its funny, we just had a long conversation about this today. I currently dont host any of them. Bitbay.net was Bobs which was trolled so Steven got Bitbay.org where they hosted and we redirected that to bitbaymarket.net for this launch. However, one of our core members holds bitbay.market and has been working up some ideas with it. So personally im not sure which domain will be the permanent one. Its up to the community to decide that.

It would be nice if i had my own domain perhaps i will buy one of the 3 at some point.

bitbaymarket.net is the best choice i think

I tried to use search, entered "Good Year", "tire" but see nothing. Does the search work, what am I missing?

If you are under "Show all contracts" and its not showing perhaps you need to wait for the markets to populate. It can take a little bit of time to find the other nodes in the bitmessage network. Once you find them it speeds up.

The search function works fine for me though.

Probably what Davids says. Tongue

Thanks for all the info David, Gizfreak, and Munti!

I'm planning on getting in touch with my brother who lives in another town.
I'll get him to install the client so we can set up a joint account that is virtually unhackable!

Love the idea!

Can't wait to get some more time this weekend to play around with it!

Hey everyone, if setting up email we noticed that either avast or outlook is causing a padding effect that messes with my encryption. So best to simply use gmail when setting up email. Even just start a blank email account since it would only be used by Bitbay as it stands. Otherwise, you can use any of the other providers or even pure bitmessage.

Outlook with avast will be either be fixed or not supported as an email provider in the next update. Thanks rqdxrocket for taking the time to test that with me.

Okay.

So I'm waiting on the client to finish syncing. In the mean time, I've been reading up on "Documentation" in the Client's "Help" tab.

Yet I can't seem to find out how I'm supposed to incorporate my existing QT-wallet info into the client.

So do I have to use the wallet console to find my private key and then enter that into the client?

If my wallet only has one private key (i'm just guessing), what do I do when the client asks if I want to make a second private key?

Any video links already out that explain this?

Thanks in advance!



Wallet.dat is not used. You cant import a qt wallet into BitBay. Everything in Bitbay is multisignature (dual key). So just make the two keys and send coins to the new address. Soon we will add staking.

Why would you need to do that? I mean if you wanna transfer some BAY from your QT wallet to the client then just copy the clients address to a txtfile eg., close the client (be sure that it really exited) and start the QT wallet.
Note: the copy to clipboard function won't work if you close the client. That's why I put it into a txt file Wink

Ahhhh...Thanks!!
I guess I was trying to overthink the whole concept.
I think I'm getting the gist of this now.

So eventually this client will stake coins as well - like the wallet yet with added security?
Or can it already stake?

One more question, (sorry if it's been answered already), can we go ahead and sell stuff or do we have to wait till the final release?


Not only will it stake but it will stake from 2 locations (since you use 2 keys). So you can do hardware staking when im finished coding it.

Thanks. I wanted to install the new Mac QT client and so I wanted to make sure that downloading a file hosted on bitbay.market was secure or not.

I just posted the below on the market, any takers so I can see if this works? You might actually make the 1st real purchase on the Bitbay markets.


Contract Halo version BitBay 1.2
From: BM-2cTCRZew7y7ru6EpDHcCuGCm4V5wnZkQV5
Preferred contact method: Email
Type:   Custom Offer
Price: 10000, $1.72, BitBay
Date: 03/25/2015
Deposits: Double Deposit
I pay this amount (I'm the buyer)
Amount: 10000
Their Deposit: 10000
My Deposit: 10000

Fee: 0.002
Time limit: 720 Hours -- 30.0 Days
Order number: e17518a87a5b17aa3c6f1b98bdb2cedd

Description:
I am selling a Good Year tire pressure gauge 0-75 PSI.  Free shipping and I will only ship to the 48 states in the US.  This is a legitimate item for sale that I will ship if someone buys it.  But its mainly to get used to the markets and to make sure I know how to do this.

I just took it so I can walk you through it. One thing i realized is, we need a way to chat in while involved in a contract. There is the "chat" window too but im wondering if there is more we can do. Perhaps putting an irc handle?

Probably will add a decentralized chat window while inside a contract. You can PM me here i will send a shipping address. When you ship it with tracking, i will release the escrow.

One thing you should take note of is, you need to keep the program running in order to negotiate the deal since its p2p (nobody is holding onto your funds) I'm thinking of text message or email notifications? Let me know if you have feedback for the templates.


By the way, you claimed to accept one of the offers earlier, is your email address loaded? I just wanna make sure you get the messages.

Yes I have the bitmessage active and i received and encrypted email from you but i cant read it and yes I have 2 pending offers from your market orders plus my listing on the market currently showing in my "pending offer" tab

Oh ok, you need to make sure the encrypted email is checked. I see [email protected] but you should confirm that is listed in the client.

If you want, i can walk you through it on irc chat in the program. My name is dogebeard.

Yes the staking function will be added to the client . Of course I can't give any ETA on that. Wink
One more question, (sorry if it's been answered already), can we go ahead and sell stuff or do we have to wait till the final release?
Can't give you any answer, but I guess David can tell you more.

First question, staking with multisignature is much more complex however it will be added.

Second, yeah of course you can sell things here. The smart contracts have been tested for over a year. Most of the hard work is pretty much done. Only the user friendly templates is what is needed now. So I would really like the feedback. Right now, the template that you can use is "custom" so obviously we will add more(users should not have to "think" about deposits). The new templates will be full automation and customization of everything so it will be extremely user friendly. I want it to be like "one click" for everything.

Ive noticed that we need a way to chat while in escrow so i recommend using irc(for now) which is in the client.

EDIT: I just noticed one of our community members already responded. Yes, exactly, just get used to using them first.
