It looks very well presented. +There was an older one that's been running for a long time that +publishes its hashes to Usenet. I'm surprised this one isn't +using Usenet, although it is kind of difficult to get access to +post to Usenet in an automated way these days. If they can get a +magazine or newspaper to publish their hashes, it would work a lot +easier in court for their purposes. Bitcoin and all timestamp +servers share the basic functionality of periodically collecting +things into blocks and hashing them into a chain. + + +> By the way, I'm also currently running the alpha code on one of my +> workstations. So far it has two "Generated" messages, however the +> "Credit" field for those is 0.00 and the balance hasn't changed. Is +> this due to the age/maturity requirement for a coin to be valid? + +Right, the credit field stays 0.00 until it matures, then it'll be +50.00. Do you think it would be clearer if I left the credit +field blank until it matures? I should put some text in the +transaction details (when you double click on it) explaining how +it works. (was it obvious you can doubleclick on a line for +details?) + +Be sure to upgrade to v0.1.3 if you haven't already. This version +has really stabilized things. +```
