Same goes for registrars..
Thanks :)

Hey there snailbrain, thanks for working on the patch for us all!

Could you please drop by this reddit thread and just direct us non dot-bit.org readers exactly where to find all of the patched clients?

Hello,

I wanted to buy another domain, I know I said that if the seller is trustworthy should be no problem, but we all know that when money is hard to rely on, so I wanted to know,

No way of knowing when a domain has been stolen?

I understand that, if after the date was announced bug (15/10/2013) has NOT had a name_update or name_firstupdate, we are talking about a domain that has NOT been stolen, or am I wrong?

There would be another way to tell?

Thanks for your help

My understanding is that if you're using the Namecoin build with the fix (on namecoin.info), you're safe. But, I'm not certain of this, so probably best to wait for snailbrain to confirm this before you rely on my word.

Hello, thank you very much for your reply.

The problem is that dotbit.me use its exchange platform, or will be, once you have it dotbit.me in my account, can I transfer it to my client namecoin updated, without having any problems?

Thanks in advance
