brainwallet -and- conventional crypto
fyr: just *grump* at the implication that gpg is usable enough by a non-initiate to get a
brainwallet or w/e out of it in 5 minutes
ag3nt_zer0: mricea_popescu I know your response to my question is run my own node... but if I currently do not have one set up and wanted to be safe with my coins during this nonsense (i.e. take them off of coinbase & store safely), would following pete_dushenski's guide to creating an offline
brainwallet utilizing 13 words arrived at through the dice method using only english dictionary be sufficient until I get an up and running trb node? B
punkman: danielpbarron: bitcoin can never exist strictly as a physical token; there needs to be some sort of bank-like entity to put a name on it << the keys are always stored on physical tokens. unless you have a
brainwallet (and the mind-reading machine has not been invented yet).

☟︎ Adlai: at least it's not a
brainwallet shinohai: I assume one must have a brain before attempting to use a
brainwallet ....
assbot: Serious:
brainwallet.org shutdown and now I am wondering how to get keys back from the phrase? : Bitcoin ... (
http://bit.ly/1UuNbck )
punkman: also
brainwallet with infinite change addresses
ascii_field: (the tx sent to
brainwallet('password') etc)
ascii_field: for simple questions like 'enter
brainwallet pw' this requires no heroic tech
ascii_field: (and before someone chimes in with 'so don't use
brainwallet' - ~every~ wallet that you can get to, but mr schmuck can't, because you know where you buried it, etc. is in fact a '
brainwallet')
ascii_field: speaking of '
brainwallet', mircea_popescu's picture of usg prison where 'lifetime pension' is probably not long for this world.
mircea_popescu: the disagreement mostly stems from definitions tho. what people mean when they say "don't use brainwallets for you are stupid" mostly reduces to redditard going on
brainwallet.org
ascii_field: my point is that everyone here is either using
brainwallet in some form already (backup of your key in a postbox in japan, symmetrically encrypted with pw in your brain, and postbox # also in your brain) OR is one stint in pow camp away from 'civil death' (total loss of key)
ascii_field: and hence the location of key, and any symmetric decrypt password to it, -is- the

☟︎ ascii_field: as it is, i would not trust serious coin, were i to have any, to anything other than
brainwallet operated with optical keyboard connected to soviet z80.
BingoBoingo: Perhaps he doesn't trust his brain to "
brainwallet" strong passwords
kakobrekla: but anyway a simplistic approach : estimate reading time by multiplying the word count by result of
brainwallet test
nubbins`: that ^ is then used as a
brainwallet passphrase to get the public address 14GVvUrtrNvszwKEr9Qnqevmuy3RNHA3yF and its associated private key
nubbins`: ^ text of gpg-signed deed is used as passphrase for
brainwallet, address of which is funded with pittance to prove document's existence at a particular point in time
punkman: I dont use
brainwallet, just trying to generate with diff tools
mircea_popescu: punkman incidentally, why is "
brainwallet" shoehorned in there ?
nubbins`: anyway. does anyone know how the fuck deeds generates these
brainwallet passphrases? :D
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i verified w/ a
brainwallet generator i wrote myself
BingoBoingo: I thought
brainwallet was known to be retarded for some time
nubbins`: if the deed ID is not a
brainwallet passphrase, the laws of probability have broken down
nubbins`: no, i mean to tell you i put the deed ID into
brainwallet.org and it spit out the associated public address
nubbins`: because that's the private key generated from
brainwallet passphrase BXZKQx2iLYyRpUCmdWCqJBvgUdvqWH4EE8TV1ns3pxLZ
nubbins`: >
brainwallet passphrase > private key
nubbins`: mircea_popescu according to deeds.bitcoin-assets.com i'm supposed to end up with the
brainwallet passphrase "BXZKQx2iLYyRpUCmdWCqJBvgUdvqWH4EE8TV1ns3pxLZ"
nubbins`: "how do i know
brainwallet.org isn't stealing my keys?"
mike_c: i want to prove that in july i said X, but with your method I may have prepped a few
brainwallet messages and now be showing you one of them.
mike_c:
brainwallet method: you could prep 10 slightly different statements and pull out the most convenient one.
nubbins`: okay. so why don't i just plug the text of my deed into
brainwallet.org, and send the money there?

punkman: how come nobody has made a
brainwallet for GPG yet? however stupid that would be.
bitcoinpete: we should do a
brainwallet hacktest of "rand"
assbot: btclittlejohn comments on PSA:
brainwallet.org's "random" button uses low-entropy Math.random()
assbot:
BrainWallet.org exploited and bitcoins stolen | Mineforeman
ThickAsThieves: passphrase functionality on
brainwallet.org, I used the random button to create the addresses."
ThickAsThieves: "I was an idiot and assumed that the "random" button on
brainwallet.org was truly random, but it clearly is not. My coins were taken by someone who is clearly smarter than myself and this is completely my fault by creating Bitcoin addresses on a website that I assumed was safe. There's a $20k life lesson that I'll never forget, that's for sure. Also, to elaborate, I did not use the

brainwallet? : Bitcoin
Naphex: dignork: lol, ms-
brainwallet doesn't look right needing both keys :)

Brainwallet - JavaScript Client-Side Bitcoin Address Generator
bitcoinpete: you could also have a gpg encrypted txt file with your
brainwallet passphrase, meaning you'd just need
brainwallet.org or bitaddress.org
dexX7: something like
http://brainwallet.org/#tx where you only need to input an unsigned tx + privkey (unfortunally this does not work with
brainwallet.org for whatever reason)
SatoshiJack: I will give you full details in a day or so -- we are going through the code now -- and figuring out what we have tobuild for it --- our big thing is -- how we generate address etc... I need to be able to generate like 1000 or so at a time -- and also to be able to submit transactions similar to how
brainwallet.org works with blockchain.info for transaction submits...
jurov: SatoshiJack:
brainwallet should work with atc out of the box, no?
SatoshiJack: mp,tat -- you guys need to get some people building around atc! I've tried contacting the
Brainwallet.org devs -- but no luck getting them to show atc some love...
jborkl: why not pull a
brainwallet, put it on a pi and make your wallet out of a bible verse. They are everywhere and you only have to remember what you part you put in
dexX7: yea, i'm not sure what the issue was, but
brainwallet somehow had a problem with a special character in the message
dexX7: true. and especially with
brainwallet.org there were significant problems
