Title: I am offering a BTC reward to the first person to help me figure something out
Post by: Kayaman85 on September 22, 2017, 02:57:02 PM
Hello, so I recently created a time/date locked address/wallet or whatever on coinb.in and I have no idea how to retrieve my btc out of it once the time comes...(I set it to release my coins in jan 2018) But I also created a test one, but i was dumb and created the test one AFTER I had already time locked .1 BTC but I created a test time locked address or whatever to see if I could figure out how to retrieve my BTC once the date has arrived and i created that one with a release date of sept 21st 2017 so yesterday, I created it the day before yesterday btw, anyways I have no idea how to get my funds out now. I dont know how to work with public/private keys or signatures or redeem scripts and what not. First person to teach me how to retrieve my btc in my test time locked address will earn .005 btc. and other people who try to help might get lucky and get a small amount of btc also, if I am feeling happy and have figured out how to access my funds that is. lol.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry for bein a noob.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
To figure it out just go to coinb.in and check out the site to see if you can figure out how to unlock the coin...lol.. i thought it would just show up in my btc wallet once the  correct date had arrived but that didnt happen so idk what im doing wrong. hopefully i didnt just lock up my .1 bitcoin forever...lol.
Peace & <3

I assume you used this page to create your TimeLocked address:
https://coinb.in/#newTimeLocked

If that's true, then you needed to provide the web page with a public key.

Where did you get that public key from?
Do you have the private key associated with that public key?

That page gives you a redeem script and tells you:
Quote
This script should be saved and should be shared with all the participants before a payment is made, so they may validate the authenticity of the address, it will also be used later to release the bitcoins.

Did you save the redeem script?
Did you save the "Shareable URL"?

Do you have the transactionID of the thransaction that you used to send the 0.01 BTC to the TimeLock address?

Are you willing to share the public key, redeem script, Shareable URL, and/or transactionID (NEVER SHARE THE PRIVATE KEY WITH ANYONE)?
You can send them via PM (or any other private direct communication method you prefer) if you don't want to make them public.

Yes i have the public and private keys and the keys i used are from a wallet i created on their site. I have all the info the told me to save.
I am willing to share the keys and scripts and what not for the test locked address i created. think that one only has like .01 or something on it.

Coinb.in Dev here. If you visit https://coinb.in/#newTransaction and put your redeem script into the text input at the top, you'll be able to make a transaction and choose where it's sent to.

Once you have carefully made your transaction, you can use the sign page to sign it and then the broadcast page to send it.

Hope this helps.
