- Decentralized Lottery Proposal for MinersNov 5, 2025
Nah, it’ll have to differ between mainnet and testnets. Mainnet runs on that "satoshis per virtual byte" deal, where 1 sat/vB is the minimum. That’s worked for Bitcoin, but it’s not great for new networks starting from…
- Decentralized Lottery Proposal for MinersNov 5, 2025
If we hit a block with all fees under 1000 satoshis, that’s a clear sign people aren’t using the network. No point in running a lottery if there’s no action, right? Also, think about it what if someone wins like 110…
- Decentralized Lottery Proposal for MinersNov 4, 2025
There’s definitely a problem with using like OP_LOTTERY to kick off this system. Take the HI-LO game your deposit is basically the transaction fee. Everyone plays except the miners who are just doing tiny transactions.…
- Decentralized Lottery Proposal for MinersNov 4, 2025
Been thinking about how to set up a decentralized lottery without going crazy on on-chain transactions or needing complex scripts like HMAC-SHA512. The idea is to let users throw their coins in via transaction fees.…
- Should we block Knots nodes to improve speed?Oct 14, 2025
Banning peers can backfire, you might end up blocking the wrong ones. Better to monitor traffic and make decisions based on that, rather than just blacklisting clients blindly. I think using RPC commands could help…
Has anyone thought about using OP_CHECKMULTISIG to mimic OP_CHECKSIGFROMSTACK? I'm thinking like a 2-of-2 multisig setup where you provide two signatures and just need to find one public key that can validate both at…
- Help with OP Return in Electrum WalletOct 21, 2022
Seems like you might be trying to send more than your balance. I checked, and you have about 1.177 mBTC, but your send amount is 0.02. That’s way over. But hey, looks like you found a transaction link? Just curious if…
The release candidate for v28.0 has included testnet4 already. Make sure you can handle those coinbase transactions. If someone sends them to your exchange incorrectly, it's not gonna count.
Are we talking v3 or v4 here?
- R.x Equals Public Key X: Can We Solve It?May 17, 2022
It’s actually pretty simple to solve. If you have the z-value, r-value, and s-value, you can just do "z/(s-r)" to get the private key. But honestly, I doubt there are many cases of this out there. Anyone could just take…
- Are mining pools colluding on transaction fees?Aug 17, 2019
There's a thread here about low fees if you wanna check it out. I even managed to get fees as low as 0.5 sats.
- Looking for tBTC on Testnet4Jun 25, 2019
If you really want tBTC, you can find it on these sites: https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet4/ https://mempool.space/testnet4/faucet https://testnet4.anyone.eu.org/ But yeah, this network is still experimental.
- Is Bitcoin still a Turing-Incomplete System?Apr 30, 2019
Yeah, I get that. So basically, OP_ADD would add the top two numbers from the stack. If you push the right values, it could lead to the necessary sum.
