Nhan Vu	16361241c8	Replace OpenSSL with secp265k1 ... According to the tweet https://twitter.com/aantonop/status/1255853793805287429 I replaced OpenSSL with secp265k1 and point to the bitcoin core github repository. Feel free to generate your bit.ly url. My name is Tri Nhan Vu focussing on blockchain education for german speaking people https://chainist.de/.	2020-04-30 16:02:48 +02:00

Fan	c6fa743597	Update key-to-address-ecc-example.py ... If line#24 use 'wif_compressed', it will produce a wrong Key (WIF-Compressed) started with 2. So there should be 'wif', unless : wif_compressed_private_key = bitcoin.encode_privkey( bitcoin.decode_privkey(private_key, 'hex'), 'wif_compressed') This is also right. However, use the 'compressed_private_key' and 'wif_compressed' is wrong.	2019-12-04 11:39:59 +08:00
blip151	fb2b9b6c8e	Update ch02.asciidoc ... When I looked at the hard copy of the book, I was concerned about space on the page. The changes I have suggested could have been put closer to Figure 2.8, but as a newbie I was referring to the text, then following the process described in the text as it appeared in Figure 2.8. My vote is that it fits better where I put it. I also tried to use as few words as possible while making sure "Best Practice" was clearly emphasized as early as possible in a newbies investigations/studies/indoctrination. Pick a word. :)	2019-11-08 06:29:25 +10:00
blip151	2c90780159	Update ch01.asciidoc ... I feel this small change shifts the emphasis from the single word "lot" to both of the words "is" and "lot." By doing so you would emphasise the reality of both the depth of the Bitcoin protocol and its ecosystem.	2019-11-06 18:50:53 +10:00
blip151	d85220a503	Update glossary.asciidoc	2019-11-06 17:59:07 +10:00
blip151	2db7fcfac7	Update glossary.asciidoc ... This change reflects the current status of Segregated Witness and adjusts the tenses used to reflect current realities.	2019-11-06 17:18:19 +10:00
blip151	535e002897	Update glossary.asciidoc ... Many people have heard that the Timechain is immutable. As a newbie, I was a little confused (ot unusual) until I did some web searches and found examples of "off Blockchain transactions." I'm not associated with Opendimes in any way other than as a customer.	2019-11-06 17:04:55 +10:00
blip151	14a5f17f8d	Update glossary.asciidoc ... This is an update that reflects the current status of the Lightning Project.	2019-11-06 16:27:06 +10:00
blip151	a6863b0068	Update glossary.asciidoc ... It's not an exact comparison because you could have many email addresses and a single bitcoin amount could be sent to many more than one of your bitcoin addresses. From a reader's viewpoint, I feel that the new text makes the flow of the sentence clearer without getting pedantic.	2019-11-06 16:18:44 +10:00

Harry Moreno	15d2ec3e37	Remove unneeded env var declaration ... The NODE_PATH is not needed to run these examples. Also this is an unreliable way to set the environment variable anyway (didn't work for me).	2019-10-12 00:47:57 -04:00

Dan Raviv	302a95857c	[ch6] Use n instead of p for group order of EC ... This is to match existing common conventions. By convention, n, not p, is used to indicate the prime group order of the EC. This is currently extra confusing because p *is* (by convention) used to indicate the order of the EC's finite field.
