Reverted your edit on Alt-chain release RFC

I think your edit is anti-competitive, and is against the spirit in which I drafted the RFC. You can write a paragraph that encourages working within the boundaries of Bitcoin, but it must accept the possibility of deciding to create a real, competing alt coin. I also disapprove of you deleting the exchanges section.

Your recent edits on litecoin are interesting lukeJnr. I'm concerned that you consider litecoin a threat to bitcoin rather than something which improves the overall system of electronic payments. The biggest threat to bitcoin as a network is actually terracoin.

  • I haven't made any edits to Litecoin recently. I'm not familiar with Terracoin. --Luke-jr (talk) 01:40, 20 December 2012 (GMT)

Undid/revision of yours in Address

Hi

I cite from the log-file of article address:

Sorry, where is this This does not apply to newer addresses, and is already covered in the details that follow mentioned in the article?

  • Newer (version 5) addresses do not always represent a public key, and even when they do, don't contain the hash of that key itself. --Luke-jr (talk) 01:00, 6 January 2013 (GMT)
  • Aha ... "always" was the critical word. I did not know. This "address" is also not very well defined. :) But are these common named "bitcoin addresses" in more than 99.9 % of the txouts (of current usage) still RIPEMD-160 hashs of public keys, or I'm wrong?

bitcoind release history

A different point: in the article Bitcoind in the release history table, I just have deleted your "source" entry in the colum platform. You should write there the supported OS and still better give a reference for this release as a URL. :) Thx, smtp Smtp (talk) 11:07, 6 January 2013 (GMT)

    • Many of the stable/backport releases exist only as tags or win32+source code tarballs. Just putting win32 in the latter cases suggests Linux isn't supported, when in fact you only need to build the binaries yourself. --Luke-jr (talk) 13:20, 6 January 2013 (GMT)
