Thanks, I hadn't seen that yet. 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.

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.
