1 2016-11-30 04:24:43 <luke-jr> CodeShark: with that change merged, are you okay with progressing BIP 123 to Accepted (aka Proposed) status and hopefully Final soon?
 2 2016-11-30 04:25:02 <luke-jr> actually, I guess it belongs in the Draft->Active sequence
 3 2016-11-30 04:25:14 <luke-jr> are you okay with it being promoted to Active? :P
 4 2016-11-30 09:17:33 <stevenroose> jonasschnelli, that was not my question :p I don't doubt that the ability to disable it is a good idea, I just don't understand what the ability to disable it is a reason to remove the ban policy for those that don't disable it
 5 2016-11-30 15:16:58 <venzen> jonasschnelli: just to update that I have solved the C struct to Python class mapping of chacha_ctx and friends. Strong headache but good progress on the wrapper.
 6 2016-11-30 16:31:32 <jonasschnelli> venzen: great
 7 2016-11-30 18:49:01 <cluelessperson> Can someone help me understand on a technical level how segwit works?
 8 2016-11-30 18:49:24 <arubi> which part? :)
 9 2016-11-30 18:50:13 <cluelessperson> arubi, all of it
10 2016-11-30 18:50:30 <cluelessperson> All I've gathered so far is that it seperates the signature data from the transactions.
11 2016-11-30 18:50:34 <arubi> well did you go over the bips?
12 2016-11-30 18:50:42 <cluelessperson> So you can fit more transactions in a block, then apply an extended block later
13 2016-11-30 18:50:47 <cluelessperson> arubi, not yet. :
14 2016-11-30 18:51:13 <arubi> better read bip141 and so on.  it explains very well imo
15 2016-11-30 18:52:41 <cluelessperson> https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0141.mediawiki
16 2016-11-30 18:52:46 <cluelessperson> arubi, alright, thanks
17 2016-11-30 18:53:39 <arubi> cheers cluelessperson
18 2016-11-30 19:58:30 <earlz> So I'm confused as to how this happens, but if I make a new regtest blockchain and generate 1100 blocks, my balance becomes 14794.53125000 BTC. How is that even possible?
19 2016-11-30 19:58:55 <arubi> block halving is insane in regtest
20 2016-11-30 19:59:02 <sipa> regtest subsidy halves every 144 blocks
21 2016-11-30 19:59:10 <earlz> ah
22 2016-11-30 19:59:15 <arubi> by the time you mine 751 (which is enough for all the cool things to activate), you have mostly all the money
23 2016-11-30 19:59:25 <earlz> but maturity is still 500?
24 2016-11-30 19:59:30 <arubi> 100
25 2016-11-30 19:59:37 <arubi> as usual
26 2016-11-30 19:59:47 <earlz> ah, right
27 2016-11-30 20:00:26 <earlz> Is there any easy RPC command for resetting the regtest blockchain, or is deleting that folder under ~/.bitcoin the only option?
28 2016-11-30 20:00:56 <arubi> I use 'rm -rf /dev/shm/regchain/knots/regtest/* /dev/shm/regchain/knots/regtest/.lock /dev/shm/regchain/regtest/* /dev/shm/regchain/regtest/.lock /dev/shm/regchain/bank/regtest/* /dev/shm/regchain/bank/regtest/.lock ~/500gb/chains/.lnregtest/* ~/500gb/chains/.lnbank/' :P
29 2016-11-30 20:01:25 <arubi> actually I'd like a "report" output better than a reset
30 2016-11-30 20:01:38 <arubi> something I can keep and parse later, or even "load" from
31 2016-11-30 20:02:16 <earlz> yea, I know what you mean
32 2016-11-30 21:05:15 <waxwing> yeah i just wipe the regtest folder, but agree it would be nice to have something more sophisticated.
