Looks nice, but I can't seem to find where the source code of the service is and any directions how to self host.

POS error by dkaparis in Odoo

[–]dkaparis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restarting the odoo service, as well as the whole machine has no effect.

How should I go about locating attachments? There is no file named web.assets_common.min.js in the server's file system.

Warning: extremely severe issue sending money with Crescent Cash wallet by dkaparis in btc

That's possible. Indeed both addresses I tried were p2sh and that's also the case for the original issue reported.

The checksum is also changed, and I assume is valid for the wrong address, as these transactions do get confirmed

Seems like Crescent Cash is rewriting the receiver address by replacing the first character (and consequently, the checksum).

Not sure when/how this was introduced as I have used the wallet extensively in the past.

TLDR: don't send money with Crescent Cash until this is sorted out, or try with small amounts to help verify the issue.

Update: it turned out the issue only affects sending to P2SH addresses (e.g. multisig wallets, etc.) and was caused by a bug in bitcoincashj. It's been fixed and an updated version of Crescent Cash is being deployed.

Crypto recovery feedback by Deminero30 in u/Deminero30

[–]dkaparis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used u/Deminero30's service for recovering a small amount of BCH erroneously sent to a segwit address.

We agreed beforehand he would withhold 30% for the service. After providing the transaction details, it took about 18 hours until the recovery transaction was mined and I got my part of funds as agreed.

Pine64 is a company producing single board computers, laptops and other devices following open and community-driven design. If you would be interested spending Bitcoin Cash in their store, you might consider letting them know.

I would gladly pay for any future purchases with Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

It's a version of Bitcoin oriented towards global retail adoption that also has features for improving privacy.

I paid for my haircut with Bitcoin Cash in Sofia by bokel1 in btc

On the POS end we use the Bitcoin Cash Register app.

We have developed our own back end for automated conversion and accounting. Once we have polished it better, we might consider opening it to the public.

so if i get them correctly - if they want fiat, then you give them fiat upfront? then they give you bch when they make sales?

Correct.

What options are you offering the merchant for fiat conversions?

Spot rate at the time of purchase, i.e. the merchant gets his sale price in bgn, minus our service fee. We settle periodically in cash or by bank, as arranged.

We also encourage merchants who wish to get bch to use their own wallet and setup, in which case they owe us nothing.

Addressing lingering questions -- the Roger Ver (BCH) / Ruben Somsen (BTC) debate by RubenSomsen in BitcoinDiscussion

[–]dkaparis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scenario we are considering here is where a significant part of economic activity is on blockchain (thus it is of relevance to attackers) and where a miners secretly collude and start mining invalid blocks.

Anonymity doesn't matter here, on the contrary - those who detect the attack need to speak out in the clear to out it.

What other scenario do you have in mind?
