thanks, yeah, I didn't send any funds to that address. although amount was quite tiny (just $25) I still don't want to waste it like that

So I have this question. I'm trying to pay to a merchant who wanted to use USDT at first, but I asked if he accepts bitcoins. He said sure. Sent me this 0x address which is ETH address, I've looked at it on blockchain says nothing about BTC, just gas fees and how much ETH that address have accumulated. The merchant sent me a screenshot from his wallet, which only has QR code with address and remarks:
"Send BTC only. This address doesn't support NFT. NETWORK ETHEREUM (ERC20) This deposit address supports ERC20 BBTC tokens. Please ensure your destination address supports BBTC tokens under the contract address ending in 541".  Being a bitcoin maximalist, I never got into ETH and smart contracts and atomic swaps and all that.  I've looked up BBTC some baby Bitcoin shitcoin that is worth exactly $0. So, the question is does this work? I don't think core wallet even allows to send to 0x addresses. Should I just say give me an actual BTC address?

I'm sorry to rein on your parade, but the address listed on cars website is this building... https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=896f7a25-48bc-4c09-8e9b-5f07df2a15ab&cp=32.750937~-97.340697&lvl=19&dir=337.9971&pi=15.94693&style=x&mo=z.1.39&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027  does it look like car dealership? Does it even look like actively used building?

yeah bitcoin-cli listtransactions shows all of the transactions of this wallet. and no, I haven't figured this out yet. even shittiest shitcoins have better wallets than BSV

so, mega question, guys. I figured I should claim BSV since I had balance in my BCH wallet on the fork date (and much later than that).  Apparently BSV doesn't even have own GUI wallet and I'm not fan of thin wallets, multiasset wallet and all those electrums, electrons certainly not mobile clients listed on bitcoinsv.io. All right, I thought I can deal with cli. They only have bitcoind and no bitcoin-qt wallet. Ok, got that going, gave it (now empty) wallet.dat file from BCH. Following the advice everyone gives, I've transferred funds into new wallet. Blockchain is fully synchronized now, but the ballance is 0.0... I shouldn't have moved the BCH prior claiming BSV? Or there was time frame I could claim this fork? Anyone successfully claimed BSV with bitcoind? I can't seem to find any instructions that wouldn't involve exchange wallets, hardware wallets or electrum/atom/hodler. I'm using their Bitcoin SV 1.0.2 wallet.

All right, guys. I did more researching and found their site...

God damn, advertisement spam reached crypto

Awesome! Many thanks this is exactly what I was looking for. Googling didn't help much, because I'd only get generic articles about what dust attack is. And some occasional mentions that samourai wallet allows you to lock those transactions.
Again, thanks for the help.

no it is from this address https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1BettingEynX2Lg24jnmCGDHL3vC6r9yX1 looks like they've spammed a lot of addresses

I've been getting tons of dust transactions to my wallet, 0.00000546BTC every month or so.  I'm trying to understand the whole reason for these attacks. So, they trying to deanon wallet users and then what? Unless federales doing that how it benefits non govt entity? Either way I don't want to take any chances. I'm using bitcoin core wallet is there a way to mark these coins as bad? Or tell the wallet do not spend?

So, ok, guys. I have this question if anybody knows. I wasn't planning to do any trades with them, this is simply for educational purposes.
Exploring paxful I've noticed there are lots (all of them, I think) demand (not even ask, but demand saying it is mandatory) a phone number in order to trade. Ok, many traders want that, not that suspicious, right? Well, the red flag is that tons if different accounts have these ads to buy or sell and they been copy/pasted.
it goes like this:
Please read carefully.
1. Initiate the trade ,
2. Paste your account details and valid phone number please (very necessary).
3. Alert me if am not online 08057708920, Whatsapp 08057708920. thanks
4, I will always give positive feedback. kindly do the same
5. A very big thanks and hope to trade with you my friend
and the variations of that. Here is one example https://paxful.com/en/offer/v6W1M7Vgxor but you can find tons more of those. Same trading rules even if payment method is Bitcoin Cash. That's a red flag for me. Now the question: why would they need my phone number? Obviously for some kind of scam, but what possibly could they do with it? Anyone knows? Really curious

not to steal the thread, but everytime I hear word "mossanite" I can't help it but to think of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GFZKPQuAaw  Also what is the ring size?

I've opened PP account in 2004. Is it old enough? Paypal is very crappy method to do the money laundering because it is highly traceable.  OP, let's assume your business is legit, you won't do charge backs, federales won't send SWAT team to my door etc... Your marketing skills are really crappy All you say that we don't understand, we aren't pros, immature etc. If Steve Jobs marketed ipad same way when it was met with very negative reaction from the public, that thing would have died few weeks after the launch. He took a time explaining to those who didn't understand why they need ipad or why is it good. People here have every right to be suspicious. Because chargebacks happened here before. Tons of scam happened here before. What if you are federal agent doing bait here? To "crack the money laundering case" and get promotion? In Florida law enforcement did like 30k trade and arrested guy. Why? Was he breaking the law? They baited him to break it. So far you haven't explained anything. So, you want us to get the money from you. Withdraw those money and buy BTC with them and then send that to you. You haven't even specified % we'd get to keep. And this activity falls into gray area on the verge of money transmitting business. Yeah, tell me I'm full of it, immature and live with my parents. http://www.coindesk.com/state-regulation-changes-the-game-for-bitcoin-in-new-hampshire/ So far you haven't explained anything for us to trust you or take the risks. And as it looks yes, you are seeking for money mules. Prove me that I'm wrong and such. I'm gladly hear your arguments. And who knows you might get more "business partners" you are seeking here

so you don't payback the loan and those sites would go after the person whose identity was verified? Hah. Somehow I doubt anyone will sell

Not really using twitter, but sure can read there. Thanks for help!

thanks! works! it wanted the speed at the end. I've tried your example and it worked. Thanks
Generates DAG now

that's pretty much the command, yes. Do I need to specify password? It asked when I created the worker

am I doing something wrong?

heh, IPv6 was first introduced in like 1992 or so... They were crying about running out of IPv4 back then already. IN reality there are tons of wasted IPs. Companies like apple have entire subnet of 17.0.0.0/8. Why do they need so many? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assigned_/8_IPv4_address_blocks
and so on and so on. Another issue is NAT. NAT in the 90s was viewed as necessary evil, and they made sure NOT to make it work in IPv6 (although 5-8 years ago they sort of did make it work, also you can do NAT from IPv6 to IPv4 and vice versa) today however NATis the most basic and cheapest way to get security at home. Imagine all those home user's computers will become visible from the internet... Heh, no. NAT isn't going away even with IPv6. Many companies are not even looking into upgrading to IPv6. What will happen is many of them will keel use internally IPv4 and just have external IPv6. So multicast fancyness and other IPv6 features won't be seen in many networks simply because only edge router will have only external IPv6. So I'm not even sure how will bitcoin benefit from IPv6 as of right now. However,  I have bigger concert about block size... Few weeks ago I had bad storm coming through the area, killing power for couple hours, UPS only lasts 90min. I wasn't home, so my bitcoin-qt machine eventually lost power, which crashed my wallet badly. To the point it wouldn't load wallet.dat and blockchain db. well, of course I have wallet.dat backed up, but I didn't backup blockchain... I though why bother? I can always re-download it.  Well, it took me 8 days to download block chain and the size is 49.5gb or so. Now I'm backing up blockchain also. What will we do when it reaches 100-500gb?

Thanks a lot! At least somebody offered help

again, has nothing to do with XDMCP. You obviously never dealt with such software. There is software that works sever-client way. Server runs as daemon and gui client runs as native application on windows.  Some environment software is like that. Heck, Metatrades is kind of like that.  Bitcoin daemon could have just dump JSON data, GUI portion could've connect to that port and get the data: show what transactions daemon did, how many BTCs you have in your wallet. Just get stats and such. But obviously it can't do that. And stop telling me about XDMCP, if I wanted it that way, I could've done that already. You obviously never used X-forward via ssh.
