Title: TinyCore is a PERFECT match for BitCoin
Post by: daemonjax on June 16, 2011, 10:55:05 AM

A good way to secure my BitCoin wallet on a Windows machine is to run the BitCoin client from within a Virtual Machine running TinyCore as a guest OS... and have the wallet.dat file encrypted, of course.

I noticed that there isn't a TinyCore extension for the BitCoin client. 

It would be great if there was one. 


Thanks :D

This has already been done.  See http://bitcoinvm.bitcoincommons.org/ for details of building a bitcoin Tincore VM or downloading a copy.

Thanks go out to Matt Collier for doing the initial work.
