1 2018-01-06 07:13:00 <dansmith_btc> hi, bitcoind's -server flag description is "Accept command line and JSON-RPC commands" . I run my bitcoind WITHOUT -server and yet this is what I see in the logs "HTTP: starting 4 worker threads" Why is that? Is RPC off or not if I run without the -server flag?
2 2018-01-06 07:14:56 <arubi> the -server flag is for bitcoin-qt
3 2018-01-06 07:15:09 <arubi> so it can talk to bitcoin-cli. bitcoind is -server by default
4 2018-01-06 07:15:30 <arubi> (or by definition I guess?)
5 2018-01-06 07:16:38 <arubi> oh you could try -server=0 with bitcoind, maybe it'll turn off rpc completely? I haven't tried that. would be weird if it worked
6 2018-01-06 08:31:12 <burtlo> i'm pretty sure that worker threads are distinct from rpc threads
7 2018-01-06 12:06:25 <[bsdnoob]> What is involved in providing wallet support for companies like trezor?
8 2018-01-06 12:06:56 <[bsdnoob]> If you were to build wallet for a bitcoin fork, what libraries you might consider?
9 2018-01-06 12:46:31 <echeveria> [bsdnoob]: er, trezor?
10 2018-01-06 13:47:33 <IniGit> hi
11 2018-01-06 13:48:05 <IniGit> Can somebody tell me what is the state of the lightning network implementation in Bitcoin. Is it to be expected soon? Will it be first integrated in another currency?
12 2018-01-06 13:50:02 <molz> IniGit, wrong channel
13 2018-01-06 13:50:18 <IniGit> which one?
14 2018-01-06 13:50:36 <molz> you can ask in #lightning-dev or #lnd
15 2018-01-06 18:36:08 <DSidH> are there any devs working on bitcoin cash?
16 2018-01-06 18:36:16 <DSidH> I need help in creating a raw transaction. Here is the tx: --> https://pastebin.com/raw/1EXYYp9A
17 2018-01-06 18:36:24 <DSidH> this is giving error
18 2018-01-06 18:38:55 <Randolf> DSidH: Bitcoin Cash is a hard fork from Bitcoin. This channel is about Bitcoin, not Bitcoin Cash. You'll need to ask in a Bitcoin Cash development community.
19 2018-01-06 18:39:36 <DSidH> ok makes sense. Its really very poorly documented.. and I thought bitcoin had documentation issues
20 2018-01-06 18:40:26 <DSidH> why are people even looking at it. Its a disaster waiting to happe
21 2018-01-06 18:42:02 <Randolf> What Bitcoin documentation issues are you referring to?
22 2018-01-06 18:45:16 <DSidH> Bitcoin documentation is kind of ok. Im talking about the uahf
23 2018-01-06 19:12:18 <fluffypony> Randolf: he's saying Bitcoin Cash is poorly documented
24 2018-01-06 19:23:23 <MashedPotato> What would be the downside to halving the block reward and doubling the number of blocks mined between difficulty adjustments? Wouldn't this double mining throughput?
25 2018-01-06 19:24:13 <MashedPotato> I guess we'd have to adjust the difficulty adjustment target to 1 block every 5 minutes instead of 1 every 10.
26 2018-01-06 19:24:48 <Randolf> fluffypony: Thanks.
27 2018-01-06 20:53:42 <coffeeincodeout_> Hello, can anyone here help me with an error when running make
28 2018-01-06 20:53:58 <coffeeincodeout_> I can provide the link to the stackover flow post
29 2018-01-06 20:54:05 <coffeeincodeout_> with the error
30 2018-01-06 21:05:04 <vkoskiv__> Hey, I'm back
31 2018-01-06 21:05:09 <vkoskiv__> With more dumb PoW questions :D
32 2018-01-06 21:05:15 <coffeeincodeout_> Hello
33 2018-01-06 21:05:18 <vkoskiv__> Hello
34 2018-01-06 21:05:20 <vkoskiv__> So
35 2018-01-06 21:05:24 <coffeeincodeout_> Can anyone here help?
36 2018-01-06 21:05:41 <coffeeincodeout_> I am new to bitcoin core development
37 2018-01-06 21:05:59 <vkoskiv__> I'm implementing a little blockchain from scratch, for fun. I want to do SHA256 PoW, but I'm not really sure how to work with the difficulty
38 2018-01-06 21:06:17 <vkoskiv__> I tried to just look at the number of prefix zeroes, but I understand that's not the optimal way
39 2018-01-06 21:06:21 <coffeeincodeout_> having an error when running make looks like an issue with boost
40 2018-01-06 21:06:27 <vkoskiv__> And the language I use really doesn't support 256 bit integers
41 2018-01-06 21:06:59 <coffeeincodeout_> looks like we both need help lol
42 2018-01-06 21:07:04 <vkoskiv__> Yeah.
43 2018-01-06 21:07:15 <coffeeincodeout_> doesnt seem like anyone is here
44 2018-01-06 21:07:22 <vkoskiv__> I'm not creating an altcoin, just a personal excercise to see if I can implement a functional ledger
45 2018-01-06 21:07:44 <coffeeincodeout_> yeah same I am working off of the mastering bitcoin book
46 2018-01-06 21:07:50 <vkoskiv__> People are here. It's just IRC, so they don't notice right away
47 2018-01-06 21:08:03 <vkoskiv__> I'm just winging it, really
48 2018-01-06 21:08:06 <coffeeincodeout_> its pretty good but man I am stumped on the error
49 2018-01-06 21:08:07 <vkoskiv__> Not following any tutorials
50 2018-01-06 21:08:10 <coffeeincodeout_> that true
51 2018-01-06 21:08:17 <vkoskiv__> Just seeing how BTC works, and loosely basing off that
52 2018-01-06 21:08:35 <coffeeincodeout_> yeah its pretty cool
53 2018-01-06 21:08:49 <vkoskiv__> Pretty neat, one could say.
54 2018-01-06 21:09:03 <coffeeincodeout_> I want to eventually contribute to bitcoin core that would be awesome
55 2018-01-06 21:09:06 <vkoskiv__> Smart fellow, that satoshi dude/gal
56 2018-01-06 21:09:09 <coffeeincodeout_> what lang are you using?

58 2018-01-06 21:09:48 <coffeeincodeout_> Nice I am starting with C++ but found out they have a python library
59 2018-01-06 21:09:50 <vkoskiv__> I actually got a PR merged into the litecoin repo just yesterday
