Official Ethereum GUI Wallet 0.3.1 (Beta 1) Now Available

Finally there is work being done on an official GUI wallet for Ethereum that is curiously hosted in the Ethereum Mist Dapp Browser GitHub repository. Do note that this is a beta release that although functional could have some issues and is some advanced functionality is still not implemented, but the idea in this release is to get user feedback and to find any bugs. This is an official Ethereum GUI wallet that currently works along a Geth client as a backend, but should also be compatible with the Eth as well. The Mac and Windows 64-bit releases come bundled with Geth node and if you are not using it already it will need to synchronize the blockchain at the first start, otherwise it should tap to the already downloaded blockchain (already over 1.7 GB size) and work with any wallets available (backing the keys first is recommended). For other binary releases you would need to have the Geth (or Eth) client already running and then launch the Wallet GUI in order for it to work. Again, since this is a beta software it is best if you try it out on a system where you do not have a working Ethereum client installed in order to avoid any possible issues.

Bitcoin Could Help With Destiny's Microtransactions

Since the dawn of networked gaming, providers have looked for ways to keep the money spigot flowing. Games like World of Warcraft have subscription models, where users pay them every month for access to the online world. Other games like SecondLife have seen extensive use, making Linden Dollars one of the first native “digital currencies.” Also, WoW and Runescape players have long found ways to sell their gold, without regard to game policies on such practices. Subscription models won't work for everyone, however, in that gamers only have so much of both money and time. If every game were to […]
