1 2018-01-17 01:41:44 <weex> is there a freenode channel for lightning dev?

4 2018-01-17 14:01:24 <Sentineo> I have tried and tried, but did not find where nChainWork is actually set for a block in the sources. I see it used all over the place, but not set. I might just not have noticed it, as am looking for an assignment ( nChainWork = something) like part in the source. Could any of you kindly point me to a place nChainWork is calculated?
5 2018-01-17 17:29:21 <Pritty_Kitty> Hello and thank you to all good Bitcoin developers for what you do.
6 2018-01-17 17:29:21 <Pritty_Kitty> I have a 0.15.1 node with a "testnet=true" setting. getblocktemplate gives me a template where "txid" and "hash" field are identical for transactions. At least the top ones i looked at in vi editor.
7 2018-01-17 17:29:21 <Pritty_Kitty> I'm trying to learn the system and build app, but running out of food so hope to cheat alittle and get answers for questions here:
8 2018-01-17 17:29:21 <Pritty_Kitty> Should they not be different for SegWit is running on testnet?
9 2018-01-17 17:29:21 <Pritty_Kitty> Will i use the "hash" fields to create my witness tree and put root as commit in my coinbase value? Do i put this commit value after the BIP34 blockheight value?
10 2018-01-17 17:33:17 <sturles> Try to add '{"rules": ["csv","segwit"]}' to the getblocktemplate call.
11 2018-01-17 19:01:08 <elichai2> is there any chance anyone here has a testnet node with lightning running that can open a channel with me for a quick test?
12 2018-01-17 19:07:50 <Pritty_Kitty> thank you sturles i was just getting the template via command line without inputting arguments. Your comment gives me hope.
13 2018-01-17 19:10:32 <Barrett> what'd be a clean way to force my bitcoind binaries connect to testnet?
14 2018-01-17 19:10:48 <Barrett> without having to specify it in the conf or commandline arguments
15 2018-01-17 19:15:34 <Pritty_Kitty> Mr Barret, how can bitcoind know to do that if you refuse to tell it? You must change source code and compile own binaries I think for your question.
16 2018-01-17 19:15:49 <Barrett> of course
17 2018-01-17 19:15:51 <Barrett> I meant in code
18 2018-01-17 19:16:49 <Barrett> I guess calling what -testnet does should be enough.
19 2018-01-17 21:31:12 <recursivebeats> Hi all :D
20 2018-01-17 21:33:06 <recursivebeats> I'm trying to install Bitcoin Core onto an old laptop and I'm getting an error when trying to create the make file. Does anyone have reasonable Ubuntu knowledge and might be able to point out what I'm doing wrong?
21 2018-01-17 21:36:56 <hsjoberg> recursivebeats, what is the error that you are getting? Do you get the error when you run /autogen.sh?
22 2018-01-17 21:37:23 <hsjoberg> (I think #bitcoin-dev is the wrong channel for this, but I am not aware of any better one, perhaps #bitcoin)
23 2018-01-17 21:38:23 <recursivebeats> Hi HSjoberg, thanks for the reply. The autogen goes through fine
24 2018-01-17 21:38:30 <recursivebeats> I'm trying to figure out how to pastebin the error
25 2018-01-17 21:39:30 <recursivebeats> Sorry for using the wrong channel.
26 2018-01-17 21:39:38 <hsjoberg> Right, I think just going to https://pastebin.com/ -> New paste should be fine :)
27 2018-01-17 21:39:59 <hsjoberg> (moving to #bitcoin)

29 2018-01-17 21:44:39 <ggafo> Has anyone experimented with lightning networks on the testnet?
30 2018-01-17 21:50:07 <ggafo> anyone even here?
31 2018-01-17 21:51:38 <contrapumpkin> ggafo: you'll find more people talking about lightning in #lnd and #lightning-dev
32 2018-01-17 21:51:52 <contrapumpkin> those channels are full of people experimenting with lightning on testnet
33 2018-01-17 21:52:14 <ggafo> @contrapumpkin thank you, I'll check them out
34 2018-01-17 22:14:01 <mahamoti> hello room
35 2018-01-17 22:14:20 <mahamoti> can anyone help me understand how peer discovery of other nodes works in bitcoin?
