Namecoin Forum

To have lower fee for id/ than for d/ seems reasonable. Another point of view would be that the fee system should not be cheated. If registration of id/ is much cheaper than d/ somebody could build a parallel system of DNS interpreting id/ as d/ and the fees would not flow in the Namecoin system. P...

One comment from my experience with namecoind-qt (the command-line): When I use walletpassphrase, I seem to always get an error message back: error: {"code":-1,"message":"value is type str, expected int"} The wallet is still unlocked fine, but getinfo returns unlocked_until=0. I'm currently running ...

Few suggestions : https://bitmessage.org/wiki/API_Reference bitmessage has an API ... maybe Atheros will pipe out whatever methods you might need if you ask pleasantly? Also maybe make the lookups somewhat configurable so that a local namecoind/nmccontrol could be used, etc ... i.e. do not just har...

without longer expiration of names then namecoin automatically dismisses any use cases in which the user might not be able to renew his name every 36k blocks... for something sensitive or where money is involved, they just won't use namecoin.. which means less uptake.. what is the disadvantages of ...

My opinion is that the current order of magnitude of costs as well as expiration time is quite good. IMHO, it is a feature that NMC names are much cheaper than official domain names. I can / will register a namecoin domain any time for even smaller projects of mine, while I've so far only registered...

It's pretty straightforward isn't it? ... someone stores a BM-xxxx address in the namecoin blockchain and the bitmessage client looks it up somehow and delivers the address associated with the human readable field. Not a lot of work, but still need to connect to namecoind (or nmcontrol) with right ...

It's pretty straightforward isn't it? ... someone stores a BM-xxxx address in the namecoin blockchain and the bitmessage client looks it up somehow and delivers the address associated with the human readable field. Not sure why it has to be in id/ naemspace necessarily since "email" is a field for ...

Any new thoughts about this one? I would love to try my hands on it, as soon as there's some consensus worked out as to what the patch to bitmessage "should" do. Are there any new plans for a bounty?

Hello. So I go to http://dot-bit.org/, then I download "Windows by phelix", then I unzip it, then I run installer namecoind.exe, then command prompt pops up for a couple of seconds and disappers and nothing happens. Please help. thank you very much. I would ask this in a newbie section, but I didn'...

Fantastic project! Who said namecoin should restrict itself to domain names? The are so many more name related use cases. Open Identity being a very good one. Will try this one out when I find some time! (hopefully this Sunday) Nice to hear all that optimistic feedback! As a quick update, I've mana...
