Topic: Bitcoin Core 0.15.0.1 Released - page 4. (Read 30661 times)
the new version is much more better than the old.Now it is much more faster [so, there is no room for waiting],and the new features makes it much more elegent.i am very glad that they fixed almost bugs in the old version.
The developers are not taking this seriously or I'm missing something? I mean how could they implement SegWit without a making standard for verifying and signing messages? I didn't knew this until saw a couple of Reddit posts about Trezor and Ledger nano S.
There already is a standard: the one that we have been using for the past several years. Messages shouldn't really be "signed with an address" or verify to an address since addresses really correspond to a specific output script whereas signed messages (signed anything really) corresponds to a public key. P2PKH and P2WPKH addresses also happen to correspond to a public key so people found it simpler to abstract "signed with public key" to "signed with a public key that corresponds with this address". P2PKH addresses can easily be translated to a P2WPKH. But message signing and verification really shouldn't have anything to do with addresses, rather it is all about key hashes which P2PKH and P2WPKH both use.

I actualy feel stupid when I realize how little I know compared to u guys damn ...
I don't know why you didn't include it, but from my point of view is a good idea to include the SHA256SUMS text in this topic, of course, people should always research it for themself but at least they will have one more site to contrast his info.

I'm interested, if on old laptops the speed of synchronization will be higher too
Yes. The speedup of 0.15.0 is more noticeable on slower systems, and those that use the default dbcache size.

Does anyone know how do I download the original Bitcoin first?
"Original Bitcoin"? This is the *original Bitcoin*.Is there some up and coming changes planned for BitCoin that is going to cause another split???
No. There is a planned altcoin by a malicious group of corporate baboons called Segwit2x.

A lot of advantage with the new wallet. Day by day the news are better and better. Keep it on and thank for the update.
Great news!! I hope it will get better and better
Excellent news! I will have to get my local wallets updated this weekend!
Finally a wallet that is stable from my point of view! Good job achow
I agree it finally seems like things are working very well even on my old clunky lappy top.

Ah, sorry, was working from (apparently very bad) memory.
So to answer Omega's question, presumably Bech32 addresses will in fact be more difficult to create vanity addresses with?
No, it will about the same difficulty. The bitness for what people will be using as vanity addresses (P2WPKH) is the same. It's still a 160-bit hash that you need to grind in order to generate a vanity address.So to answer Omega's question, presumably Bech32 addresses will in fact be more difficult to create vanity addresses with?
Because of the disallowing of mixed case though, I'd imagine it would be harder actually, because what was once valid like 1AddreSs would not be valid any longer right?
EDIT: hmm no I don't think that's an issue actually because it's base32, don't worry

I think it would, not 100% sure, there may be some mathematical subtleties I'm not aware of. In principle, it should (I think this new Bech32 format is 32-bit in length and using base 36 numbers, whereas the current address format is 33 bit and uses base 58 numbers).
No, that is completely and absolutely wrong.First of all, current addresses are 160 bits in length (bitness is not the same as character length). Bech32 addresses are either 160 bits or 256 bits. Bech32 uses base 32 and it will actually be longer than current addresses.

Oh, I missed that.He's wrong.

Not sure going backwards is the way to go with bitcoin, ie the shorting of address length.. Seeing they want to use a different address for every single transaction. I mean people thought 4 billion ip (which also is 32 bit) addresses would be enough...
What are you talking about? The address length is not becoming shorter.Few post up
