Are there any dependents programs like C++ run time software i need to run a full node in windows?  Running 64 bit 15.1 version and allowing connections and about 5 hours later it gets a popup saying ignore,abort and try again run time error.

That only happens when i allow incoming connections..

Not sure what to do, fresh install and fully patched windows 10 pro and Firefox  on a i5 with 8 gb ram and 1 meg dbase cash.

The short answer is that BitPay can't manage their server properly. See that thread for more information and workarounds.

Also, in future, please post questions relating to technical problems in the Technical Support board, where they are more likely to be seen by people who can help you.

what you think abut that? it will be secure than before Huh?? Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

security is a relative word, some things are seems secured to me when I look at or it may seem not when u look at it. Its more like will it be beneficial to all users. One question hangs in my mind is that, Will this be the future of sending/receiving money or not. heheh

1.I disagree as soon as the blockspace is increased it changes the pricing structure. it's a simple mathematical statement. I don't understand how you can deny it logically. What ever the modification to the max txs per block will have an impact on the fee. So if txs more to segwit it means less for blockspace or what ever the system off chain (and true I didn't read the bip). I mean it isn't on chain, on the block chain as intented by satoshi and us when we joined. I mean it was clearly all txs in a block every 10 min, the block 1mb, no one can change that blah blah... then saturation.
I never said that it wouldn't effect fees. I said it does not effect fee calculation.

Segwit transactions are still on chain and fees are still basically calculated in the same way (some constants change). It does not suddenly become impossible to estimate fees are to estimate income for miners. All segwit transactions are in blocks; all data in segwit transactions are in block. Nothing about that has changed.

I do highly suggest that you read up on how segwit actually works before jumping to conclusions and trying to have a discussion about it.

2. Wrong a 500GB SSD cost 150$ !!! It is such a lie about difficulty for people. What the fuck all interconnected system are super complex to setup and the DIY about banking is quite risky and can WAY more expansive than decades of banking fees...  At one point the market will bash all narratives that you try to construct here. even more brutal will be your fall if you believe them. Safety cost don't increase with the size of the blockchain.
I said there's more to it than just disk space. Can you read?

You also need a computer, one with a CPU and RAM that can handle the load of processing the blocks that are being received. You also need to have enough network bandwidth in order to be able to receive and relay blocks and transactions. Furthermore, blocks could be constructed to be malicious and cause DoS attacks, and larger blocks make those worse. So there's way more to larger blocks than just disk space, or even network bandwidth requirements.

your all argument is so flawed, it's brutal... never written a line of code in your life I guess? mostly pr and cr?
Yes, I totally have never written a single line of code in my life. That's why I have a Github account with several repositories (many of which are my own) where I have made several commits. It's also why I have 52 commits in Bitcoin Core and several Pull Requests. It's also why my name is in the release notes at the beginning of this thread.



I think I'm being trolled. I'll probably ignore you now.

Okay, In all events thank you very much for your reply. I strongly agree that I have to read this bip and understand at least segwit before speaking. that is why I asked btw. So seg wit is like a block extension not mined by the presegwit node while being only mined by the segwit nodes. so it increase the block space with another code extension which adds more potential vulnerabilities... one instant is enough.

I am sorry but you don't understand the cost of security... again one instant. segwit can be spammed too... it's the cyberspace...

I should venerate you? you know there is distinction between what an engineer does and an user...  a stupid iphone is more power full than the entire nasa apollo space program computer resources... please... there are always those light wallet for anyone who wants... it's core here... or was.

- breach the on chain system, the fees and all ways to estimates income from miners.

- I fear that segwit txs will take over the blocks and or that txs can be blocked from segwit. I know those 2 comments are uninformed but I think that the more segwit scale, the more it will have a larger imbedded fee, which will raise the fee for the on chain users. Is it wrong? Then I fear that segwit may be able to ban certain txs. is it true?
These are completely untrue. You are conflating segwit with the lightning network. They are two completely and absolutely different things. Segwit does not do anything to how fees are calculated nor does it have a "larger imbedded fee" nor does it do anything to raise fees for on chain users. Segwit cannot ban anything. It is a technology, not a system. i suggest that you actually read up on how segwit works (as in read the BIPs) and not just people's blog posts.

3. btcash I like the idea of on chain scaling. I think it is the cleanest way forward. However it doesn't change the hardware mining cartel. best fabs, best layout, best everything is very capital intensive. Hardware isn't really open sourceable, yet. Then more practically looking at the wallet options, it is way less clear than with core. At least with core I know one main wallet that works, is continually improved and safe. Here I have no idea which one to download, not even a torrent...
One of the biggest issues with on chain scaling is that it becomes more difficult for people who want to run nodes to actually be able to run nodes. The cost required to run a node (which includes more than just bandwidth and disk space) increases dramatically by increasing block sizes, so much so that the idea of decentralized nodes just completely goes out the window.

Hi All,

Thank you for this release ! It seems to be a well done update.

Now I have a few questions and fears concerning segwit, segwit2x, btc cash and btcg.

Which is closer to the vision https://www.bitcoincash.org/bitcoin.pdf  Huh

Those 2 articles guide my reflection:

https://medium.com/blockchain-law/the-segwit-forks-an-exit-voice-account-b5cf01cbee97

https://medium.com/@jgarzik/bitcoin-is-being-hot-wired-for-settlement-a5beb1df223a

First of all I see that none of the 3 solutions addresses mining gear concentrations and or utility. For example I saw bitmain raises its prices for the S9 brutally. I don't see much competition to bitmain. The A9 aren't bad it is just that the S9 are still better.

However it is the way of mining pow.

Here what I like, and don't about each solutions.

1. Segwit

+ compatibility with old wallet. I think that satoshi must be able at all time to use his wallet. I understand that his coins are still on all chains.

- breach the on chain system, the fees and all ways to estimates income from miners.

- I fear that segwit txs will take over the blocks and or that txs can be blocked from segwit. I know those 2 comments are uninformed but I think that the more segwit scale, the more it will have a larger imbedded fee, which will raise the fee for the on chain users. Is it wrong? Then I fear that segwit may be able to ban certain txs. is it true?

2. Segwit 2x.

basically segwit + a fork. So why even do segwit and not move to bcash? furthermore how could I agree with an agreement from NY were I wasn't even informed or part of it. Nothing. It was totally centralized as a decision.

3. btcash I like the idea of on chain scaling. I think it is the cleanest way forward. However it doesn't change the hardware mining cartel. best fabs, best layout, best everything is very capital intensive. Hardware isn't really open sourceable, yet. Then more practically looking at the wallet options, it is way less clear than with core. At least with core I know one main wallet that works, is continually improved and safe. Here I have no idea which one to download, not even a torrent...

4. Again just moving from bitmain to nvidia isn't a solution. Nvidia anti mining actual attitude and eventually will be tempted by the same moves as bitmain.

Thank you all for reading my little reflection, and I hope that you will be able to help me see clearer between all the options. I love the fact that I can chose what ever I want in the end.

Is there any different between bitcoin and bitcoin core? And how do I create account for bitcoin core?
Bitcoin is the name of the coin. Bitcoin Core is a full node software for Bitcoin. They are not two separate coins, but they are different things. You do not create an account for either Bitcoin or Bitcoin Core. You need a wallet, which Bitcoin Core is.

Ow that's good thank you for explanation..
I just get stuck and was little bit confused with these bitcoins things
there are a lot of frod also between good products very sad Sad

hopefully this will be very good news which at the moment I hope will have some better features such as stronger security features as well as faster transaction ways. hopefully this project will run successfully because this is what is expected to be a new breakthrough.
