when you do the changekey, it'll either send you a pastebin that you need to decrypt or a otp that you need to encrypt. |

you use verify/everify depending on which way you're choosing to go. |

verify goes with changekey. everify goes with echangekey. |

Hello, Mr. mircea_popescu. |
| 09:43 |
nanashi_ |
I'd like to ask a question about "What if I created a bet address but can't bet right now?"(https://bitbet.us/faq/#150), which states 3-day window for betting. |
| 09:43 |
nanashi_ |
Is there any remedial action due to the damage caused by the "stress-testing" which was occurring on the BTC network? |
| 09:43 |
nanashi_ |
I have realized that "faq/#150" is potentially very dangerous to almost all bettors given the unpredictable "stress-testing" which might occur in the future. |
| 09:44 |
nanashi_ |
For example, it was reported (https://bitbet.us/bet/1153/btc-to-top-350-before-september/#c4934) that 0.1 BTC vote on yes with a fee of .00001 took 5 days until the first confirmation. |
| 09:44 |
punkman |
pay more fees, problem solved |
| 09:44 |
nanashi_ |
During an emergency like "stress-testing," I'd like to see a remedial measure which extends the 3-day window to something like 7-day window, or as a last resort, a manual inquiry for refunding. |
| 09:44 |
nanashi_ |
Also, I'm wondering if it is possible, that by monitoring "mempool" of BTC transactions, BitBet can anticipate that the bet address is to be used by a bettor, so be able to make it exempt from reclaiming the address. |
| 09:47 |
nanashi_ |
punkman: Yes. But I anticipate a bigger incident will inevitably occur due to a 1MB thing. |

| 09:51 |
pete_dushenski |
don't mention it |

Those were my worry-ness. I have never thought "faq/#150" had much meaning because I thought forgetting for 3 days seemed to be a complete idiot! |

Every 6 months, either on March 15 + September 15 or on April 15 + October 15, the Monero network will have a hard fork. 30 days before the fork we will have a code freeze + tag + release, and if there are no major changes we'll have an increase in the protocol version (ie. that's at a minimum). A similar fork system to Bitcoin will apply, whereby a rollover to the new code after the trigger block will only occur if a |

Anything that is more of a soft fork will kick in immediately (as long as it doesn't drop pre-fork clients off the network). Anything on the p2p layer (ie. hard forkable) will be kept in the wings until the next fork date (as roughly estimated from block height) and then is enabled. |

The upshot of this is that you can run a client that is a year old, but pretty much after that 1 year anniversary you'll be dropped off the network (even if there have been no "real" changes in that year)." |
