    Bitcoin Core 18.1 still does not support SegWit addresses for message signing, rendering the sign message feature useless for new wallets. Is there a reason for this?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2019 02:11 PM PDT

    Bitcoin Core 18.1 still does not support SegWit addresses for message signing, rendering the sign message feature useless for new wallets. Is there a reason for this?

    Headline sounds passively aggressive, but I just don't get it how the Bitcoin Core Wallet still does not support this while being the main force regarding Bitcoin's development.

    More than two years after the introduction Bitcoin Core still does not support the signing of messages using standard P2SH ("3"-addresses) and bench32 encoded addresses ("bc1"-addresses), which are de facto becoming the standard for transactions on the blockchain.

    Unfortunately it is not possible to create old style P2PKH "Legacy" addresses with Bitcoin Core anymore; new addresses are always SegWit-compatible. This is *not* a bad thing, as it thrives SegWit adoption, however the in the title mentioned signing feature does not work with these addresses.

    The sign message feature is was such a wonderful function to easily prove the ownership of funds and their address. Electrum and Trezor support the signing with the new standard btw, so is there a reason why Bitcoin Core does not?

    ​

    THE FEATURE I'M TALKING ABOUT. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    Thailand, BX.in.TH stops trading after 30 September 2019. This is not good for Crypto in Thailand.

    Posted: 01 Sep 2019 07:53 PM PDT

    Daily I go to Bx.in.th.

    BX.in.Th is the best exchange for Crypto.

    Today I received this pop-up:

    Bitcoin Co. Ltd. has decided to discontinue offering digital exchange services and wallet services at our BX.in.th website in order to focus on other business opportunities.

    This means that after September 30th 2019 all trading on the BX.in.th will be stopped.

    We ask that all customers withdrawal any funds held at the BX.in.th website into their own bank account or digital wallet.

    The company will not be seeking to hold an SEC issued Digital Asset Exchange license for the year 2020, and we ask all customers to withdraw their funds before November 1st, 2019.

    After 1 November 2019, the company will continue to open the BX.in.th website only as a method for customers to contact the company about outstanding issues.

    All deposits will be disabled after September 6th, 2019.

    Passphrases from books will get your coins stolen. Especially the Bible.

    Posted: 02 Sep 2019 03:15 AM PDT

    If you're tempted to use passages from books as passwords or passphrases, you might want to think again. The search space is far smaller than you might have thought, especially relative to current key-cracking systems.

    There are only a few hundreds of billions, maybe trillions, of sentences in all books ever published.

    Restrict to more popular books (the top hundred or thousand, rather than 50-150 millions), and the search space is vastly smaller.

    And current known password cracking systems can run 350 billion keys per second: "25-GPU cluster cracks every standard Windows password in <6 hours". Oh: in 2012, seven years ago.

    How do we get the hundreds of billions to maybe trillions of sentences ever written?

    • A typeset page of text contains roughly 500 words.
    • The average length of a sentence is ... hard to say, though guides suggest 15-20 words is a good goal. Previously I've analysed all sentences in Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations by length, with a mean of 207 characters and a median of 183. (Using the Wikisource text.) At 6 characters/word, that's 30-35 words per sentence. The total book is, by the way, 10,433 sentences long. The shortest sentence is "Nor was this all." And the longest was 256 words. Because I like to read my books from shortest to longest sentence.
    • I'll assume a typical book has 250 pages.
    • There are from 50 - 150 million books ever published. The US Library of Congress collection, the largest in the world, has 42 million titles. Google estimted about 150 million books ever published, a few years ago.

    Maths then gives us: (500 words/page / 30 words/sentence) * 250 pages/book * 150 million books: 625 billion sentences in all books ever written.

    Caveats: very rough numbers. Focus on the order-of-magnitude ("hundreds of billions") rather than the mantissa, which is all but certainly wrong. The point is that the keyspace is single-digit seconds of seven-year-old brute-force technology time.

    There's a further problem. Not all are unique.

    In fact "not all are unique" is not a unique sentence. So the total search space is almost certainly vastly smaller.

    If you consider that most people won't select from at random from amongst all published works, but will strongly favour the top 100 or 1,000 most popular, the effective search space is reduced further still.

    The space is constrained not only by all books which have been digitised to date (sources such as ZLibrary list 4.8 million books), but all those which will be digitised in future, a task which is proceeding apace. Oh, and there are roughly 300,000 conventionally published books per year, a total of about 1 million "nontraditional" (self-published or "vanity press"), which are assigned ISBNs, from Bowker, the firm which issues such numbers. That 300k/yr value has been remarkably consistent in English-language publications since the 1950s according to Library of Congress annual reports, which summarise new acquisitions.

    You may be able to improve on this method by mixing and matching phrases from several books, by manipulating the strings (common or uncommon substitutions, added random strings), all of which will thwart a simple brute-force search, though if your manipulation or match sources become known, you'll be having a bad day one day. I'd recommend you don't.

    Are there any crypto Airbnb sites?

    Posted: 02 Sep 2019 12:49 AM PDT

    Over the years, I have used Airbnb quite a bit in my travels. However, lately, I've noticed it has gotten so bad. Many cities have few listings, and the prices have skyrocketed, mostly due to government regulation and outright banning Airbnb in many places. Is there a good place to rent short term with crypto?

    Cryptocribs.com is a great idea, but it hasn't seem to have got much traction, and some of the functionality on the site isn't working.

    in the spirit of Bitcoin

    Posted: 01 Sep 2019 03:18 PM PDT

    I created a P2P forum for people to buy and sell with cryptocurrency. It's literally just my friends using it right now. I have no expectations of it becoming anything more than that. But I thought it was a cool idea because we are all in this for the financial freedom, right? Enjoy the long weekend everyone :)
