1 2017-12-17 00:02:09 <buZz> hmmm, hey, what if IBD wasnt blocking, and would start with the -newest- block instead of the oldest
 2 2017-12-17 00:02:13 <buZz> could that work?
 3 2017-12-17 00:02:23 <buZz> wait, no, i already see why not
 4 2017-12-17 00:02:24 <buZz> dangit
 5 2017-12-17 04:11:04 <jb55> progress on bcalc tool I'm working on: https://jb55.com/s/f4547808e6d087b1.txt
 6 2017-12-17 04:11:26 <jb55> output is msats, going to implement output formatting
 7 2017-12-17 07:03:11 <DSidH> when stopping, does bitcoind write only the header of the last block to its local database? The last file always only has a block header in the end, not the complete block
 8 2017-12-17 07:16:06 <DSidH> nvm: was a bug in my code. Please ignore above question
 9 2017-12-17 07:26:32 <jb55> btc unit calculator done! https://github.com/jb55/bcalc
10 2017-12-17 12:52:31 <wumpus> DSidH: yea that definitely would have been a bug if true
11 2017-12-17 14:25:09 <DSidH> wumpus: Though it does store zeroed bytes after the last block. My parser was not checking the magic bytes..
12 2017-12-17 14:25:52 <wumpus> DSidH: right, it does that to pre-allocate space, in some cases that is more efficient than appending to files
13 2017-12-17 15:58:54 <nkuttler> can somebody here replesnish my tbtc faucet? if i don't decrease the payouts i'll run out of coins in ~1 week mnAYb4w1Tu7rirs4HQMU4VZADnrrA6Rzho
14 2017-12-17 15:59:20 <nkuttler> i currently pay out something between 3 and 6, so decreasing is not a problem either
15 2017-12-17 16:30:35 <molz> nkuttler, how many do you need?
16 2017-12-17 16:31:15 <nkuttler> molz: i currently pay out something like 200-300 per day
17 2017-12-17 16:41:37 <wumpus> 200-300? heh that's all the testnet coins I have. But if you give me a bechs32 address I'll send some, that's what I'm testing at the moment.
18 2017-12-17 17:06:35 <arubi_> sent some of mine too
19 2017-12-17 17:08:50 <nkuttler> wumpus: 2N1xu29hkDDkwbgtqSxFRJHkMfE8bWe4Ukc
20 2017-12-17 17:09:03 <nkuttler> arubi: ty
21 2017-12-17 17:09:54 <nkuttler> i've also decresased the payout, 0.9-1.9 now, should last a little longer
22 2017-12-17 17:11:46 <wumpus> right, small amounts are as good for testing as large numbers
23 2017-12-17 17:16:19 <molz> nkuttler, 200 sent
24 2017-12-17 17:16:41 <molz> i'm using a lot testcoins too and so do LN testers
25 2017-12-17 17:17:20 <molz> i'm trying to bug a testnet miner who has his test coins locked up in his phone :D
26 2017-12-17 17:30:46 <nkuttler> molz: haha. thank you
27 2017-12-17 17:45:21 <molz> wumpus, i've been testing bech32 on testnet with core wallet and LND wallet, works great :D
