does that mean they won't be able to spend their coins?

more lost coins?

They will not lose their coins, or be unable to ever spend them.   They will have to apply the work around or upgrade, then do a -rescan before they will be able to spend them.   My guess is that anyone who is savvy enough to be running a local wallet will be able to get this sorted out.   If not, we get some additional deflation  Tongue

edit-They may actually have to re-download the blockchain, I am not sure.

News: All users of Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind versions 0.7.2 and earlier are required to upgrade to 0.8.1 or apply a manual workaround by May 15. More info.


what will happen to users that don't upgrade  Huh

you are likely to be left behind and will be out of sync with the rest of the Bitcoin network.

what the F?

Basically this is just early warning that the same fork that happened in March will happen again if you don't update.   Only difference this time is that the old version fork will be the one abandoned, hence you will be left behind if you don't upgrade or do the work around.   It is just a block size limit increase.  This is not an update of the 1MB hard limit, it is a lifting of the soft limit, which I think is currently 250KB.

They'll still have their wallet.dat. Even if they send their coins to an address not recognized by the new fork, the network won't confirm it when they do upgrade.

Ah thanks for the reminder, I still have to apply the work-around (I'm not switching to 8.* just yet).

If you don't update or apply the work-around, your client will fork from the rest of the network.

Nice place, but I'd rather live on the west coast(not that I have $19m in bitcoins, but someday perhaps).

It's 'only' $1.9M!
Roll Eyes Yep, missed a period. Should have reread it before I posted.

Anyone see reptielia guy ? i think he might commit susicide after loosing so much money Cheesy

Risto has changed his mind. He said that if prices drop he will buy more.

As matter of fact, I applaud his efforts as an experienced, professional  bitcoin broker/dealer to create infrastructure that will gain him even more clients. There is a crude cliche that applies, at least partially to his behavior - Fake it until you make it.

I expect Risto to make it.

Your buddy Risto is classic bullshitter and you have only legs outside of his back, I guess you're one of the last who gives a shit about his coins, ounces and his plans. Hope you have a good time there though, I want people to be happy  Grin

Lolchik, what a douche  Grin
