Project source code is hosted at github; we are no longer

For Ubuntu users, there is a ppa maintained by Matt Corallo which
|
||
|
|
you can add to your system so that it will automatically keep
|
||
|
|
moneyrocket up-to-date. Just type
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:moneyrocket/moneyrocket
|
||
|
|
in your terminal, then install the moneyrocket-qt package.

KNOWN ISSUES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Shutting down while synchronizing with the network
|
||
|
|
(downloading the blockchain) can take more than a minute,
|
||
|
|
because database writes are queued to speed up download
|
||
|
|
time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NEW FEATURES SINCE MONEYROCKET VERSION 0.5
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Initial network synchronization should be much faster
|
||
|
|
(one or two hours on a typical machine instead of ten or more
|
||
|
|
hours).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Backup Wallet menu option.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Moneyrocket-Qt can display and save QR codes for sending
|
||
|
|
and receiving addresses.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New context menu on addresses to copy/edit/delete them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New Sign Message dialog that allows you to prove that you
|
||
|
|
own a moneyrocket address by creating a digital
|
||
|
|
signature.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New wallets created with this version will
|
||
|
|
use 33-byte 'compressed' public keys instead of
|
||
|
|
65-byte public keys, resulting in smaller
|
||
|
|
transactions and less traffic on the moneyrocket
|
||
|
|
network. The shorter keys are already supported
|
||
|
|
by the network but wallet.dat files containing
|
||
|
|
short keys are not compatible with earlier
|
||
|
|
versions of Moneyrocket-Qt/moneyrocketd.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New command-line argument -blocknotify=<command>
|
||
|
|
that will spawn a shell process to run <command>
|
||
|
|
when a new block is accepted.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New command-line argument -splash=0 to disable
|
||
|
|
Moneyrocket-Qt's initial splash screen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
validateaddress JSON-RPC api command output includes
|
||
|
|
two new fields for addresses in the wallet:
|
||
|
|
pubkey : hexadecimal public key
|
||
|
|
iscompressed : true if pubkey is a short 33-byte key
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New JSON-RPC api commands for dumping/importing
|
||
|
|
private keys from the wallet (dumprivkey, importprivkey).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New JSON-RPC api command for getting information about
|
||
|
|
blocks (getblock, getblockhash).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New JSON-RPC api command (getmininginfo) for getting
|
||
|
|
extra information related to mining. The getinfo
|
||
|
|
JSON-RPC command no longer includes mining-related
|
||
|
|
information (generate/genproclimit/hashespersec).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTABLE CHANGES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BIP30 implemented (security fix for an attack involving
|
||
|
|
duplicate "coinbase transactions").
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The -nolisten, -noupnp and -nodnsseed command-line
|
||
|
|
options were renamed to -listen, -upnp and -dnsseed,
|
||
|
|
with a default value of 1. The old names are still
|
||
|
|
supported for compatibility (so specifying -nolisten
|
||
|
|
is automatically interpreted as -listen=0; every
|
||
|
|
boolean argument can now be specified as either
|
||
|
|
-foo or -nofoo).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The -noirc command-line options was renamed to
|
||
|
|
-irc, with a default value of 0. Run -irc=1 to
|
||
|
|
get the old behavior.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Three fill-up-available-memory denial-of-service
|
||
|
|
attacks were fixed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOT YET IMPLEMENTED FEATURES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for clicking on moneyrocket: URIs and
|
||
|
|
opening/launching Moneyrocket-Qt is available only on Linux,
|
||
|
|
and only if you configure your desktop to launch
|
||
|
|
Moneyrocket-Qt. All platforms support dragging and dropping
|
||
|
|
moneyrocket: URIs onto the Moneyrocket-Qt window to start
|
||
|
|
payment.

PRELIMINARY SUPPORT FOR MULTISIGNATURE TRANSACTIONS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This release has preliminary support for multisignature
|
||
|
|
transactions-- transactions that require authorization
|
||
|
|
from more than one person or device before they
|
||
|
|
will be accepted by the moneyrocket network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Prior to this release, multisignature transactions
|
||
|
|
were considered 'non-standard' and were ignored;
|
||
|
|
with this release multisignature transactions are
|
||
|
|
considered standard and will start to be relayed
|
||
|
|
and accepted into blocks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is expected that future releases of Moneyrocket-Qt
|
||
|
|
will support the creation of multisignature transactions,
|
||
|
|
once enough of the network has upgraded so relaying
|
||
|
|
and validating them is robust.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For this release, creation and testing of multisignature
|
||
|
|
transactions is limited to the moneyrocket test network using
|
||
|
|
the "addmultisigaddress" JSON-RPC api call.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Short multisignature address support is included in this
|
||
|
|
release, as specified in BIP 13 and BIP 16.
