I have only used Bitcoin Core since I started mining this past March.
I am willing to try another wallet program. How can I get the wallet info from Bitcoin Core to your program?
Topic: Electrum 1.9.8 released (Read 13132 times)
Please run the following command and let me know what it returns.
Code:
/Applications/Electrum.app/Contents/MacOS/Electrum --verbose
it gives back:
"Illegal instruction"
I am happy to announce the release of Electrum 1.9.8.
Are any changes required to address the recent Heartbleed OpenSSL bug?

I myself cannot open Electrum wallet. It crashes every single time.
I am using:
- Macbook with MAC OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
- Electrum 1.9.8
Does this really did not happen to a lot of people? why could this be happening?
I want to send all my BTC from the Multibit wallet to Electrum due to the bug scandal regarding lost funds when you receive the change.
Thanks in advance!
Nice to hear about new ver of my favorite wallet !)
My OS = Ubuntu 13.1 : How do I upgrade from 1.9.7 to 1.9.8 ?. Just thought I would ask here before I start ginning around.
As root:
Set version:
Code:
ELECTRUM_VERSION='1.9.8'
Download:
Code:
wget https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz #software
wget https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz.asc #sig
wget https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/raw/master/pubkeys/ThomasV.asc #dev's gpg key
Verify signatures:
Code:
gpg --import ThomasV.asc #you only import once
gpg --verify Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz.asc #verify everytime
It will output something like the following:
Quote
gpg: Signature made using RSA key ID 7F9470E6
gpg: Good signature from "ThomasV"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 6694 D8DE 7BE8 EE56 31BE D950 2BD5 824B 7F94 70E6

gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 6694 D8DE 7BE8 EE56 31BE D950 2BD5 824B 7F94 70E6
As long as it says good signature you can ignore the warning and proceed to installation.
Install or update:
Code:
pip install Electrum-$ELECTRUM_VERSION.tar.gz
BTW I can see why you would use software called Electrum

Daemon mode is broken under Windows. Os.fork() cannot be used as it is not platform independent - it's a Linux-only function AFAIK.
Yeah, this is a major bummer. I was hoping to call some Electrum functions from Python, but some of them use 'fork'. Isn't there another way?!?
IIRC other script types are not propagated by the network, you must be a miner to include them to the chain.
The multisig transactions I mentioned are standard transactions. So to redefine: getutxoaddress does not work with multisig transactions but with P2SH multisig.
Anyway, great job. I love Electrum!
non-P2SH multisig txs won't be standards anymore
Electrum is an outstanding Bitcoin client. Thank you for creating it.
I am a retired programmer (C, C++, Java, PHP) and have been away from programming for over 5 years.
After using Electrum, I have been motivated to learn Python, and I am most impressed with the language.
Thanks again for your outstanding creation.

I've just added the Windows and OS X binaries. They should be on the website tomorrow, as soon as Thomas is able to add it there.
For users on OS X.
I had trouble, again, building the OS X binaries. Please let me know if they don't work for you, and if so on which version of OS X you are running it.
Great to see the new version. Mo problem with it on Mavericks OS. Would telll you if it goes bad
Hm. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? All multi signature outputs I tested - redeemed or not redeemed - return null.
The multisig scripts outputs you tested are not P2SH addresses.
see for example https://blockchain.info/tx/186b4abdca8cf3edcaee8b56c28be9bb481ea1d7ed62903595661118d6d548b3
this is a multisig script, but not p2sh.
A p2sh address corresponds to a script of the type OP_HASH160

How are OSX users finding it? Stable?
No problems found on Mavericks or Mountain Lion so far. Report any issue, please.

Just to be sure: getutxoaddress does not work with multi signature outputs, right?
I believe it should work - there was a fix applied to servers especially for this. There may be some older v0.9 servers which run an old version of the database (v2) where it doesn't work. Can you test this with electrum.no-ip.org for example? This is an up2date server. If it works, can you please point out the servers which don't yet work?
yes, it works, but you have to use an updated server.
here is the result with electrum.no-ip.org
Code:
getutxoaddress 6b01861beb0a8e510214650b416af311f8d55b1bae3e83d02dca8578b44288ed 0

FWIW, for those curious— the thread on the encryption issues: http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/message/32107008/ (I made several posts after the first one too)
Nice !

Great! The encrypt/decrypt functions seems to be really useful for services like https://www.b1txr.com or to be able to share Labels for recipients ala "public notes" of Blockchain.info but with more privacy.
I am happy to announce the release of Electrum 1.9.8.
This release includes some features initially planned for version 2.0.
Packages are available on https://electrum.org/download.html (signed by me)
Binaries for windows and mac will be available in the coming days
enjoy

RELEASE NOTES
# Release 1.9.8
(This release includes features initially planned for version 2.0)
* Electrum servers were upgraded to version 0.9. The new server stores
a Patrica tree of all UTXOs, an idea proposed by Alan Reiner in the
bitcointalk forum. This property allows the client to directly
request the balance of any address. The new commands are:
1. getaddressbalance
2. getaddressunspent
3. getutxoaddress
* Command-line commands that require a connection to the network spawn
a daemon, that remains connected and handles subsequent
commands. The daemon terminates itself if it remains unused for more
than one minute. The purpose of this is to make scripting more
efficient. For example, a bash script using many electrum commands
will open only one connection.
edit: encrypt/decrypt methods were removed due to a bug
