Bitcoin Core initial synchronization will take time and download a lot of data. You should make sure that you have enough bandwidth and storage for the full block chain size (over 100GB). If you have a good Internet connection, you can help strengthen the network by keeping your PC running with Bitcoin Core and port 8333 open.
Hi
I installed Bitcoin Core for Ubuntu through the ubuntu software center. When I see the ABOUT tab it says:
Bitcoin Core version v0.13.2.0-g0d71914(32-bit)
Trying to find some reference to this specific version but can't. Can someone help and let me know if it's a valid version and where I could find some reference to it, before I start the verification process?
Thanks very much in advance

And it's the base of Bitcoin Network after all.
Bitcoin Core is my go to wallet, and in my opinion the best due to constant updates!
Bitcoin Core always build the futur ... so, every release is a step and introduce somes very interesting things to force the rules over the Network of Bitcoin.
good , the mempool.dat is activated ! And no crash at shutdown in disablewallet mode. 
what are the relevant update in this release? is it onyl for bug fixed or they added new features?

I really enjoyed this interview and encourage people to listen to it. In it, he discusses one of the biggest problems with Bitcoin user friendliness, which is private key security. While many people want Bitcoin to be used in the mainstream, the reality is that there is a tremendous amount of user education required for understanding just the aspect of private key security.

curious about this, but are miners at least running this version, or they are still stuck with old version since they seems to hate segwit and don't want to activate it
not to mention that many of them use spv client
Thanks
It'd be nice if this updates make Bitcoin faster, I know there's a lot of variables, specially fees... but maybe if the block was larger than 1Mb it'd be faster.
Confirmation speed if one of the biggest issues with Bitcoin

So i think i understand you better.
Do you mean that i can have the Bitcoin Core wallet installed on my desktop and then that provides me with a coin address?

As many as you want, yes.
So i do not have to use the Luno.com bitcoiin id ?
Not sure i know how to set it up...

Depends on your OS, but its usually as simple as installing a programm.
I have allowed the program to stay open for a few hours and i can see now the synchronization is complete...it doesnt say 5 years behind anymore so i take it that is a good thing.
It takes some time to download and verify all transactions ever done. Currently thats ~100 GB.
I have tried so many utils now and some are being up by my antivirus as a Artemis! trojan/virus ...not sure.
I have downloaded them from sites that look kosher and or also from github so i take it this is a false positive.
As for using them and actually making them work , what a bloody head ache.

Not sure what you are talking about, but I wouldnt just dismiss the warnings by your anti virus software. Otherwise there is no point in having it.
I can not get any of them to work, the only one wihch does seem to work is Minderd.exe and Cudaminer.exe which are running through a gui i downloaded called Easy miner. I am also using a pool called litecoinpool. It has something like stratum+tcp://litecoilpool.org:3333 as the host name to mine against.
It seems to like my log in also.
Now as for the other tools like SGMiner and CGMiner God knows whats going on , all sorts of errors or warnings about SETX or SET and environment variables and then it doesnt even connecgt or it looks like it does and then it sits there doing something or nothing? and then i dont know why the heck the screen clears and also why it doesnt tell u anything is wrong.... only when i press control-c then it shows me the error like could not connect.
I need some guidance here please, i am going nuts i cant handle this i dont know what i am doing wrong and maybe i am following the wrong sites or tutorials.
Either the guide is outdated and my version is different and then i also noticed with Slushpool they say that only certain utilities work with them and then again when you use the guis like nicehashminer they seems to work BUT how the hell does it know how u are? because u could be mining for nothing.
I really dont understand this , its driving me mad, i really just want to give as much detail as i can to whoever is going to help me and get me on my feet with this.
I also want to report enhancements or experience to the developers of these tools because im sure they can make them more robust .

Dont bother mining with that hardware, this is done with ASICs (special mining hardware) now. You would just raise your electricity bill and likely never see any coins. Its also not the topic to talk about this. There is an entire section about mining with profit (or not). -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=81.0
Hi, forgive me for asking, but i dont understand even after reading on various sites, what the purpose of this Bitcoin Core - Wallet is?
Its a wallet and a full node. Thus running it you dont rely on anyone else, the client confirms all information on its own.
I have a Bitcoin address with a site called Luno (not Luna).
It is a long number starting with .....
It is a long number starting with .....
... with? 1, 3 would be common prefixes for addresses, 5, L and K for private keys.
SO now how and what is the use of this Bitcoin Core application, it is just another means of how to get a wallet?
You currently use a service, not a wallet. You have no control over your private keys. If the company offering the service is gone tomorrow, so are your coins. Its no different than a bank, well a bank probably has more laws to follow than a bitcoin service. This is not only true for bitcoin core, which requires you to download the entire blockchain, but also for other wallets like e.g. electrum and multibit hd.
I dont know what they mean when they say YOUR WALLET ADDRESS on those command line utilities.
I mostly get authentication errors, such a pain to work with.
Sorry its an all-sorts post.

"Command line utilities"? Not sure what your question is, can you rephrase?
So i think i understand you better.
