AndyS2, this is #bitcoin talk, please move it there
< AndyS2>
maybe someone can chime in on when bitcoin was changed away from IP-Addresses and other weird things to what we mostly use nowadays. I remember reading something about that a long time ago
< AndyS2>
I can recommend "Mastering Bitcoin", it's freely available online or as a book. It was written in 2017, though, but it does tell you about a few things that were added later on
< provoostenator>
stepa[m]: this is more suited for #bitcoin or bitcoin.stackexchange.com
< stepa[m]>
Just read the bitcoin whitepaper, and it is so clear and concise! What are the major changes that happened since the paper was written? I believe the Merkle Tree as described is not used anymore in lieu of a Fast Merkle Tree? Are there any other major differences that make the whitepaper outdated?

Huh... trying to build windows version of bitcoin with --enable-gprof --enable-debug. It fails to compile, with `Fatal error: can't write 86 bytes to section .text of wallet/libbitcoin_wallet_a-wallet.o because: 'File too big'`. That doesn't sound too good. (Without both, it compiles though.)

luke-jr: for example, I'm not sure that setting a locktime in the transaction should modify the sequence numbers itself, if a user is using bitcoin-tx they probably want to modify the transaction themselves rather than it doing stuff in the background

in bitcoin core, are RBF transactions that are replaced removed entirely from the mempool? or are they kept around until either one confirms?

I can write an bitcoin bruteforce generator
< BlueMatt>
or at least rename it Bitcoin Community, not Bitcoin Core....
< sipa>
but the fact that that bitcoin core slack exists, and has people discussing things there who are not here, is probably a sign that there exists an actual barrier
< achow101>
also, there's already a "bitcoin core community" slack that we can use instead of setting up some new service
< wumpus>
last I heard cobra was busy with a redesign of bitcoin.org, but yea maintenance for the site is not very active in general. That shouldn't dissuade you from contributing, though.
< Randolf>
According to WHOIS, bitcoin.org is legally owned by "WhoisGuard, Inc."
< BlueMatt>
bitcoincore.org is the *only* site that is in any way associated with the bitcoin core project
< BlueMatt>
no, bitcoin.org is *also* a privately-run website
< BlueMatt>
I mean it doesnt deliberately try to confuse people as to the bcash-v-bitcoin thing, so its better in that regard, sure
< Randolf>
sipa: I know that Bitcoin.com is privately owned and operated by a BCash fanatic. I was always under the impression that Bitcoin.org was the good one.
< BlueMatt>
I believe bitcoin.org has gone mostly unmaintained for the past few months, so segwit stuff never landed before folks stopped working
< Randolf>
sipa: Is bitcoin.org's content not part of overall project?
< Randolf>
The reason I ask about this is that I've seen questions in the #bitcoin channel and in other forums about this, and it seems that there is confusion regarding it.
< Randolf>
I was looking at the FAQ at the Bitcoin.org web site, and I didn't find any mention of Segregated Witness nor the Lightning Network. I'm wondering if an entry should be added? https://bitcoin.org/en/faq#transactions

< sipa>
please take any further discussion elsewhere, it has nothing to do with bitcoin core's software development
< sipa>
as far as using the signmessage functionality in bitcoin core goes, you can use validateaddress to extract the public key for an address (if it's yours), and then sign with the P1PKH address corresponding to that key instead
< sipa>
bitcoin addresses are not identities
< bcamacho>
luke-jr or sipa: Is there a link regarding deprecation for signmessage? I was reviewing the developer documentation and it has no mention of the deprecation: https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference#signmessage
< luke-jr>
bitcoin.org hosts a mirror of some keys, but you should probably verify the keys are correct from multiple sources, or someone you know/trust personally
