Just use your normal bitcoin address as a devcoin address.

The address is already yours, you already have its private key, it is already waiting for devcoins to be sent to it.

Someday when you finally decide you have enough devcoins waiting there that it is worth learning how to export a key from one wallet and import it into another, copy the key over to a devcoin wallet and use your devcoins.

It was done this way deliberately so that we could put developers on the list initially way back when just by knowing their bitcoin donation address.

That doesnt make any sense. How can you import devcoins into the bitcoin blockchain ?
it does make sense, u just dont understand how!
devcoind and bitcoin keypair are the same. you can use a bitcoind adress fro devcoin too and the opposite.

You are not making sense, how can using the same private key in multiple places / for multiple purposes make all places and purposes you use it for somehow the same place or purpose?

If you sign a transaction on the devcoin blockchain, the devcoin blockchain will be effected, if you use the same private key to sign a transaction on the bitcoin blockchain the bitcoin blockchain will be effected.

If you use the same private key to sign a valentine card to your mom possibly your mom will be effected. your mom doesn't suddely turn into a bitcoin or a devcoin.

Sheesh.

Maybe reading Satoshi's whitepaper would help, to get an idea how blockchains work?

EDIT: after a bit googling, this could be a problem with mingw32! so maybe no build for winblows possible.

Any chance for devcoin client win32 installer or .zip package?
Is in work...
By now i sugesst you an account at https://cryptostocks.com it allows you 0 fee withdrawals.

Registered an account an got DVC address, but page says "Do not use these addresses for mining purposes."  Huh
Yeah, for mining you should run a real Devcoin client...

All I need is an address, so I can get some Devcoins at Bitparking pool. I'm not planning to solo-mine Devoins yet.
how about generating a keypair with vanitygen and saving the keypar, later if u got the devcoind u can import it and access ur coins!

DeVCoin addresses are deliberately identical to BiTCoin addresses, so peopl;e can simply use a bitcoin address until some future day when they choose to export the address from a bitcoin wallet and import it into a devcoin wallet to access their coins.

So you can just go ahead and use your bitcoin address for now, to have your coins safely wait for some day when you do get a devcoin wallet.
This is misleading. It is impossible to import Bitcoins to the Devcoin blockchain, even if the addresses are the same...

You don't import the coins, just the addresses. for any bitcoin address, the exact same address functions perfectly well as a DeVCoin address, without mixing the coins since the coins are on different blockchains.

The same private key controls the address regardless of which blockchain it is used on.

Technically one can even transform the appearance of the addrress by manipulating the prefix system to display it in a form that uses a different initial character to use it on other chains that mess with the prefix, but then people won't be able to see at a glance that really it refers from the same private key.

There was a request for a bounty for a multicoin client:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-benefits-of-having-a-universal-wallet-127836

I suggest 6 then 3 shares, any objections?


I support this also, this would be optimal.

how big is it ATM?

I wrote the bounty upgrade suggestion on Nov 22:

There's been more demand for a windows version:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1141014

so I suggest boosting the bounty from 4 to 6.

That was four days ago, so the 6 share bounty for the windows version is in force. In general, if there is no objection to a bounty within four days it is official. The four day wait is just in case someone who would object is away from their computer for a while.

Edit: The bounty has been awarded so only the 3 share award remains for the next windows exe, which has in turn been doubled to 6 shares and converted to a bounty for improving installation:

I suggest a 2 then 1 share bounty for Mac. A generator that makes a three would get an additional 4 shares.

Would be great if qt could be crosscompiled aswell but i guess there are some references missing, could you please check that?
