Hi Dev,
You said Active bitcoin wallets will receive UBTC at a rate of 1:1, I want to ask you;online wallet owners can benefit from or has a wallet in any stock exchange?

It depends on the exchange or wallet provider, each will have to make their own decision, however you can apply for the manual distribution if they don't. The deadline for that is January 3, 2018.

What a smart move to make the ANN thread 6 days after the fork. Conspiracy theorists would speculate that you did all your could to keep the number of BTC holders getting their UBTC as small as possible, and thus in the end to keep as many (seized) UBTC as possible to yourself in your "foundation".

Is there a video How to claim the United Bitcoin?

I have spend 2 Bitcoin at Block 494,140 but do not know exactly how to claim.

Do I need your wallet to put the private keys in? =r is there any othermore simple  method to claim?

Thanks

You will need to claim the UBTC manually using your private keys on which you were holding some Bitcoins before the fork taking place. Make sure you don't own any Bitcoin at time of claiming for extra safety measures. This one seem important fork which can get attention among recently announced.

Thank you for asking, yes are several reasons. Let me explain, UnitedBitcoin’ s fork breaks from convention with regards to distribution by differentiating between active- and inactive addresses. There are several advantages for doing so, first of all, it allows us to distribute UBTC across chains and across communities. Second, because there is less alt-coin flipping, resulting in less volatility for Bitcoin itself. Lastly, the remaining (inactive) balance can be used as collateral for future Eco-system developments.

Instead of sending the BTC to ourselves and having to reveal our public key why don't we just send you a signed message proving we are owners of a particular address.

Your public key is your address and you logically have to "reveal" your address if you want to receive any UBTC to it, the UB team is great but not telepathic.

Did any of you see the balance after submitting TXID? Or should I wait till the end of phase two? then I'll be too late if I only find that I submitted wrongly
I checked here block.bitbank.com

I sent to my own address in phase two.  A few of blocks after that, I find my balance of UBTC was taken. now the balance is zero.

Your public key is your address and you logically have to "reveal" your address if you want to receive any UBTC to it, the UB team is great but not telepathic.

This is wrong! Your address is a hash of the public key, not the public key itself. Hence, your coins are protected twofold, by the hash function as well as by elliptic curve cryptography. When spending from an address, the public key gets reveals and your coins are not protected by the hash function anymore, only by elliptic curve cryptography.

Thus, claiming the UBTC actually forces you to weaken your security, at least temporarily until you move your coins to a new address.

UBTC is quite valuable, well worth changing your btc address.

Hi-

Question about receiving UBTC, and whether a 'change address' might mess things up for me.  Here is a transaction that I did in an attempt to claim my UBTC:

Address A (has 1 BTC) send -> Address A (0.1 BTC) and Address B (0.9 BTC)

So when I send the TXID to UB, will I receive 1 UBTC, 0.1 UBTC, or 0.9 BTC?  

Obviously my intention was to do a transaction to claim the full amount of UBTC that I can, but now I'm worried that only the amount sent to the original address (i.e., Address A) will be credited, and not the original amount in Address A, or the amount sent to Address B.

Can you please clarify how your crediting rules will work?

(I have already received the confirmation email acknowledging UB's receipt of my two TXID's, but there wasn't any amount mentioned in that email.)

Thank you!

Just send the entire amount to yourself to the same address, you don't need to use a change address.

Yes but if you need to contact them anyways with the TXid, why don't you just send them a signed message proving you are owner of the account.

With the huge transaction fees these days it seems like a waste to send balances back and forth.

on here https://www.ub.com/project/get (https://www.ub.com/project/get) we can read  : "Due to this feedback, The UB team has changed the process. Bitcoin holders are not required to send Bitcoin from address A to address A or provide a TXID to prove ownership. This will simplify the user experience."

is that could mean they already decide to take community advice and make new rules during Phase 2 distribution ? Is it possible to claim UBTC by new method already?

if yes, what is the new procedure?

edit:
oh.. just found out new rules are in this letter:

(1) did not receive UBTC in the first round; and

(2) had a Bitcoin balance at block 498,777 higher than 0.01 BTC; and

(3) had activity (outgoing) between block 494,000 and 501,878 (around 12th November 2017 to 3rd January 2018);

now its clear.

Good luck to the UBTC team

Hi
I like this fork because it is backed by a team of professional devs, also its road-map is well written with special focus on smart contracts.
I have 2 comments:
1- Can I use any standard bitcoin paper wallet to create a new address?
2- I buy some from Yobit but up to now withdrawal is impossible, will be appreciated if team contact them and help to clear any possible issues.

I'm starting to feel like an idiot here.

Supposedly, everything is explained on this page
https://www.ub.com/project/get


But in fact, it says almost nothing.
Where can I find that link to check if any of my addresses can claim ubtc? I'm actually not sure; I made some moves around that time from old standard addresses to new bech32.
I don't remember exactly when and I'd like to check what if any of them can claim before I start signing and sending stuff.

Where do I actually send whatever I need to send? A specific email address, an online form, what?

It means you have to have an outgoing transaction before Jan 3.  You can send any amount to yourself and it should work.   They are just trying to filter out dormant addresses like Satoshi's.

But the snapshot already happened, so unless you had a balance in that address on Dec 12, then won't matter.

This will be a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain, 1:1 ratio of active addresses, manual distribution of inactive addressess followed by the first cross-chain distribution of supported cryptocurrencies after January 3, 2018.

The UB coins will be on the UB blockchain.  They will be sitting there and you can access them with your private key. 

So just figure out how to extract your BTC private key for that address and you can access your UB, once a wallet supports it, of course, and allows for private key sweep.

i also had that on many of my addresses on the 12th of december, isn't that because of not being given on the phase 1 so that they transfered them to some kind of 'reserve' so to say to be allocated in the phase 2? (wishful thinking)

UBTC developers appears to be quite greedy, those funds ended in a 1604192 UBTC wallet, worth >638,000,000$ at the "current price" :)
Mine were transferred to that same address as well.
Here is the txid 500c973997f35a2f876acbaa15a93518ac7cb752958bd44525d08a702e66cf88

Checked the balance on one of my BTC addresses on UB explorer and it appears to be zero?
It looks like a transaction happened on 2017-12-12 04:32:56.0 which moved the funds at my address to a segwit address that isn't mine?
Any explanations?

Found this on their website
We expect to distribute UBTC by 24 th January 2018 as announced yesterday.
This would suggest that there is some manual intervention required perhaps?
Maybe I am being too much of an optimist but I would hope that the UB coins will get distributed fairly by that date.
Otherwise if all the coins have ended up with Mr Garzik then I can't see it being that useful as a currency, I mean, who the hell would want any if only one person has them all??

Or just any transaction from that wallet between specified blocks?

The distribution seems weird. Any reasons behind it?

This is UnitedBitcoin

Thank you for asking, yes are several reasons. Let me explain, UnitedBitcoin’ s fork breaks from convention with regards to distribution by differentiating between active- and inactive addresses. There are several advantages for doing so, first of all, it allows us to distribute UBTC across chains and across communities. Second, because there is less alt-coin flipping, resulting in less volatility for Bitcoin itself. Lastly, the remaining (inactive) balance can be used as collateral for future Eco-system developments.

Except from the utterly stupid conditions regarding which addresses are inactive and which aren't.

My address was active at the time of phase 2. I transferred them to another wallet after the fork.

Surely a new phase is needed. There are a lot of us that simply didn't know about the requirements to move the coins. I see in all the forums people complaining about not knowing. A policy update is needed with a new phase, at least with the half of ration. And a bit of an effort to reach to the people is needed. It seems that everything is at the developer and inside info level. Especially with the policy of redistributing the inactive wallets, it seems a bit sketchy that only 2 phases were allowed, in a very short period of time.

Frank.

A new phase isn't needed.  I didn't know about the Stellar airdrop last year and missed out on that.  And it was 100% my fault and Stellar doesn't need another airdrop.

If you didn't know the requirement for United Bitcoin fork, then it's 100% your fault.   You missed this one, so try to pay attention better next time and perhaps you won't make the same mistake.

That's the typical I fucked up, it feels good other did too. And the Stelar had the same policy? The developer will take all the coins from inactive wallets? It was a suggestion to inform the team that others didn't meet the requirements because they didn't know, not because there was no interest. Most of us were waiting to have there forks finished, so we can move our coins only one time. Some of us, invested without being active in the tech every second of our lives. So, a missed deadline is not that uncommon. O month, especially during the holiday season, seems everything was done in a hurry....Anyway, again, you are just an ass because you felt bad loosing, now the impact is softer, when you see others going the same road...

If the main reason was to spam the already congested Bitcoin network with "user spam" moving coins around just to get UB then it was not really successful. Too few people knew about it IMHO (including me).

Hello. Looks like I missed phase one distribution. Do I still get my coins if I import priv keys to your btc united wallet?

Did you meet our criteria of phase 1 or phase 2?
 
You must have held bitcoin at block height 498,777 and conducted an outgoing transaction between 494,000 and the fork (498,777) to meet phase 1 criteria and receive UBTC automatically.
 
If not, phase 2 criteria is that you must have bitcoin at block height 498,777 and conducted an outgoing transaction between 494,000 and 502,315, which will result in distribution of UBTC on 24 Jan 2018.
 
However, if you do not fulfill both phases then please provide proof of an outgoing transaction from the address that held BTC at 498,777 along with detailed explanation as why you missed phase 1 or phase 2.

Please email to supprt@ub.com for assistance.

So just to be clear.
Are you saying that if I had BTC at an address at block height 498,777 and then transferred all the BTC from that address to a different address AFTER block 498,777 then I will qualify for the distribution that will happen on the 24th? Or is the outgoing transaction supossed to have been on the UBTC chain??
If so, will the UBTC be sent back to the address they were taken from at block 498,777 ?
Seems like a very convoluted way of doing things.

If you are eligible to below requirements then you will receive UBTC:-

During phase 2, an amount of UBTC, equal to the balance at Bitcoin block 498,777, will be distributed at a 1:1 ratio to eligible addresses that satisfy the following conditions.

(1) did not receive UBTC in the first round; and

(2) had a Bitcoin balance at block 498,777 (approximately UTC +0 midnight 12th December 2017)higher than 0.01 BTC; and

(3) had activity (outgoing) between block 494,000 and 502,315 (around 12th November 2017 to 3rd January 2018); 

We expect to distribute UBTC by 24 th January 2018 as announced.

I did miss phase one distribution, because I did not know about your project. It only happend I actually knew about it a few days ago. So, there is no argument that I do not fulfill phase 1 criteria to receive UBTC.

However, I was helding Bitcoins on my wallet during block number 498,777, and I had an outgoing transaction before block number 502,315.

So, as I understood, in this case I do qualify for the second phase of distribution? Also, I sent a message to your support. Thank you!

If someone can help me, maybe I got this thing completely wrong.

Here is an example of a bitcoin address that, by my understanding, fulfils condition to be claimed on 24th january (phase2):

https://blockchain.info/address/1HosiZxxCEz9oqJMGR4EPjGafic4WYGj1q

AS you can see, the conditions as stated here: https://www.ub.com/project/get are fulfiled:

- The balance was there on block height 498,777 (~2017-12-12)
- The outgoing transaction happened between blocks 494,000 and 502,315

But here is the current state of that address as reported by UBTC explorer:

https://www.ub.com/explorer/address?address=1HosiZxxCEz9oqJMGR4EPjGafic4WYGj1q

saying the available amount is zero.

Now, I realised I might have misunderstood the point of "outgoing". As you can see on 2017-12-30, I have moved the whole balance (emptied the address). Is the eligible amount for claiming UBTC the one before or the one after the outgoing transaction ?!??

You are in the same boat as many of us, me included.
Looks like all the criteria are fulfilled but we will have to wait until the 24th to see if the coins are sent back to the address that Garzik moved from using GOD mode!!

Me too. I can see the transaction is confirmed in the block explorer but electrum still says it's unconfirmed.
I sweeped a private key into a seed wallet so I had to make a transaction. I could not just import a key.

Apparently it's an electrum issue. I should be able to import this key now into a new wallet and it should work, but I don't want a full node

Under the instructions for Round 2 grace period, why must we send bitcoins to your address to claim UBTC? Why can't we just sign/verify a message like all other forks? This means those of us with many addresses have to spend significant amount of money due to having to pay network fee per address!

Do I need to send this small amount for validation from the address I am validating? Or does this not matter? I had funds during your hard fork on one address, and this address holds UBTC in your block explorer, but those are long moved to another one.

Yes I suggested this a while ago, they said its a good idea but didn't follow up on it anyways.

Hi. The reason is that address have to make outgoing transaction. However, please check our website www.ub.com/news and then you can check which phase period of UBTC distribution that you can join.

Still very complected for many to understand the way distribution is taking place. In simple words if I have bitcoins on my address and didn't make any transactions which I have stored in cold storage I can't claim. Will there will be some deadline in this case to claim or will be remain open ?

I was 1 week to download the wallet, and I went to claim my UBTC, and it has nothing.
I registered my address on the UB website, and has 1.14313136 to claim.

Are you having any problems with the UBTC?

Read our latest announcement on our website so you don't miss out!

Here is the link:

https://www.ub.com/news/detail?column=1&id=288


Are these also NOT going to be distributed like the BTC Claims from 2nd period?
Have been waiting for months now, yet no coins.

Each second airdrop - it is new Bitcoin fork, but it is not true I think. Who will support mining of all this forks, I think that nobody. Maybe devs only. It is clear that if you have not good community then you will have not true decentralization and value

Post by: fabioganga on January 30, 2018, 11:33:40 PM
There is one thing I don't understand about this fork and that is quite suspicious in my opinion.

Why would I need to send some BTC to the devs to prove that my BTC address that qualifies for the grace period airdrop is mine when I can simply either use a signed message or simply enter its private key in the wallet?

I know it's not a great sum, but multiplied by the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS out there it makes a great sum!

Can anyone here other than the devs testify to the genuine nature of this fork?

Has anyone actually received any UBTC from the previous airdrops?

Thanks.

I contacted UBTC support over this problem, answer was

"Unfortunately, you did not meet all criteria to claim UBTC phase 2 or phase 2 grace period"

So, if you had btc balances at block height 498,777 and moved them after the 3 Jan snapshot you don't qualify. You HAVE to send the micro bitcoin payment, so if you emptied your address after 3 Jan you're out of luck.

Leave it to Jeff Garzik to totally fuck up something completely straight forward that has already been done successfully many times by others. Thank god this loser has nothing to do with Bitcoin anymore. First he completely fucks up S2X and now this. A signed verified message from your address would have worked just fine but instead you I have to send you bitcoin and pay the tx fees on every address in every wallet including all my change addresses..... like seriously fuck off. Also like others have said, if you already moved your coins from your wallet to another then it is impossible to send the required btc to UB because your wallet is already empty... I also find it highly suspicious that I need to sign up on the website and provide my full name, phone number and verify my email address. This whole fork seems like a ploy to de-anonymize BTC holders for his blockchain analytics company.

upon the webpage of unitedbitcoin:
https://www.ub.com/news/detail?column=1&id=280

"... During the phase 2 grace period, an amount of UBTC, equal to the balance at Bitcoin block 498,777, will be distributed at a 1:1 ratio to eligible addresses that satisfy the following conditions:

1) did not receive UBTC in the first or second round; and
2) had a Bitcoin balance at block 498,777 higher than 0.01 BTC; and
3) had activity (outgoing) between block 502,315 and 507,613 (around 3rd January 2018 to 14th February 2018). The final block height will be announced on 14th February 2018;   "


so If I empty my btc balance after 3rd january, I can send again some small coins to my balance, and send the required btc that UB ask to get my UBTC coins.
unitedbitcoin, please confirm this is correct.
thanks

The steps to claim UBcoins made the whole process suspicious. Why it wasn't offered simply based on 1:1 famous and transparent formula which is used as standard ? If you wanted to see support was good to take Bitcoin community on board but you went out of the way. You could bring fresh coin though that was hard to use Bitcoin's name for that but at least could be without issues.

The thing I'm most suprised at is that it's held any value still considering the messed up distribution process.

Post by: Zerotosixty on February 20, 2018, 12:14:43 AM
Yesterday I used a wallet extraction service to claim 4 different coins' airdrops for the 15+ BTC I held on a Ledger wallet throughout the latter half of 2017.  I tried to get the UBTC but.the program returned "no coins found."  I did some research, particularly here on bitcointalk and on the UBTC website, and confirmed that I've met all the criteria for eligibility.  I entered several outgoing BTC transactions into the UBTC explorer, where the transaction comes up, but the UBTC 'unconfirmed balance' reads 0 UBTC in red text and the 'final balance' reads 0 UBTC in black text.

Well, this being four days beyond a deadline I'm learning about for the first time, it appears there's no way I can get these UBTC tokens I'd qualified for, per the itemized criteria.  But since I'd met every criterion shouldn't they have been made accessible to me via my private key automatically?  I certainly think so.

As this stands, UBTC has MY tokens and will be using them, so they've said, to fund further development of their project.  This makes me want to let off a little steam every time I come upon any article about UBTC, any article with a comments section.

@UBTC devs, the MEW signing tool does not create signatures that validate on your site for claiming community airdrop,  https://www.myetherwallet.com/signmsg.html , multiple people have had same experience providing valid sigs for ethereum community airdrop.

Can you provide another option to prove ownership of ethereum addresses, otherwise how can people complete the requirements for the ethereum community airdrop before the deadline?

The distribution is really shity. Worst than all other hard forks.
I can't retrieve any ubtc for my addresses which fulfill their rules.
Anyway, my balance are all in their control. that's the most shity part.
A small port had transferred in on Feb 03 and then been transferred out on Feb 14.

I don't really care about the anonymous aspects....I'm legal as hell and mined my LTC..but looking at the hoops to get my cold wallet and send them LTC to verify, I figured

the heck with it, went back to their site...THERE IS NO WAY TO DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT...it is just an LTC wallet address and unverified but still...


YOUR THEORY COULD HOLD WATER

But then again, I signed up because I don't give f*ck, have already been looked at by SEC on a bank error in 2013...all was fine..but that boat has sailed with me...

anyway, not being able to delete your info/account on there is a big red flag..for those of you not already tagged by the SEC or IRS or whatever...(like the banded bird I am)

see, this is what bored gets you ....slumming around airdrop sites...

I just mined it and deposited to Okex exchange and while you can mine it a btc.com and deposit to that exchange it appears they have done this to ensure it is now a scam and only theives that steal hashrate pretend they work with or operate this coin.

It seems to be a scam unless you know of a exchange that will exchange it.  I think you might have been scammed like I was.

They all seem to be pathetic losers in some way or another constantly with this " industry " they make all there shit public and then they wait for people to try and mine there coins and steal the peoples hashrate and give them fraudulent coins. I have seen many people from china try and do that they just seem to be pathetic people its hard to get into this since they are all so pathetic and corrupt and liars and cheats.

Unless you know where I can get a exchange for this pathetic people?

DONT MAKE SHIT PUBLIC IF YOUR PLANING ON GOING OFFLINE OR SCAMMING PEOPLE LOSERS!
