Thank you so much!

The thing is I left the regular fee against priority.

Should I have used custom fee? Or maybe priority?

Many thanks!
It really depends. I guess you sent your tx at a moment where 2.7 sat/byte would be confirmed, but right after, there was a spike of transactions and yours got blurred by them.

I always check these websites for the best fee when I’m going to make a tx:

10462  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Payment Processing Time on: April 14, 2019, 10:10:07 PM
You chose a fee of 2.7 sat/byte and the mempool is current catching up 5 sat/byte fee transactions. Just wait. It will get confirmed pretty soon.
10463  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If China Ban , Bitcoin Hashrate Will Drop ? on: April 14, 2019, 07:48:49 PM
I don't think that the Hashrate will drop significantly. Okay, given that China is a big country that has many miners and they decided to ban mining in the future. But, that's only on their country not yours, not mine. So, if China does that then no, it will not drop.
What? You do know that the hash power of the network isn’t locally restricted, right? It’s not like there is a hash power rate for each country.

China holds 81% of the network hash power[1]. If they ban mining, expect a huge increase in the total network block speed. Fees will probably go to the hundreds while the mempool fills up with tons of unconfirmed transactions. All of that in the ENTIRE network (you included).

You say that it is more profitable to use chipmixer, while all his transactions are easy to track down!
I'd rather pay 50% commission to bestmixer, but no one would know that I got the money from the mixer!
That’s funny for you to say after this post: Breaking Mixing Services

Quoting it:
Quote
I found some trivial bugs (timing attacks, leakages, xss, ...) through which nearly all relevant centralized bitcoin mixing services could be broken. Based on outgoing mixing transactions (transactions sent by the mixer) I was able to identify the correct incoming transactions sent by customers (vice versa). [...]

[...] In my thesis, I attacked coinmixer.se (at the time of writing it was the biggest centralized mixing service), however - except chipmixer.com1 - every other centralized mixing service I checked could be broken in a similar fashion.

While the author doesn’t explicitly quotes BestMixer’s name, it is clear that BestMixer works exactly as the other traditional mixers (except that they charge huge fees for some “extra privacy” methods that no one can confirm if it works or if it even does anything at all).

edit: found this https://www.freevaluator.com/ seems www.bitcointalk.org is worth a bit of $$$. Says the site has been around 8 years.
So it was started in 2011.

Damn, that is a lot of $$$ for a domain name!
It actually opened to the public in 2009.

November 22 of 2009 to be more precise. Almost 10 years.
Are you sure about that date? admin account "u=1"[Date Registered:   November 18, 2009, 01:12:33 AM] Has Satoshi created it?

The forum was opened to the public on Nov 22.

10467  Other / Meta / Re: Ice bucket challange ... meh ... Rank up challenge ! on: April 14, 2019, 12:14:12 PM
Is the challenge random?
If so, what if the challenged member is not interested or does not want to participate?
Then, he’ll choose another one (I guess). That’s why it’s a challenge.

I think that would be fun, but I can’t rank up anymore. Tongue
10468  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase now has its own debit card on: April 13, 2019, 09:00:25 PM
I want to spend bitcoin by scanning a QR code and paying direct. I don't want to trust a third party to do it for me - if I wanted that, I wouldn't be here in the first place. Coinbase have already said they will be taking 2.5% in fees on every transaction, and knowing how scummy Coinbase are, I have no doubt that you will get the worst possible exchange rate imaginable.
Wtf? Is this legit? Can I get a source on that, because if it’s true then that’s pretty terrible. I thought everyone was overreacting with the “I can do that with my bank cc”, but if you need to pay 2,5% just to spend your coins, then I don’t see why anyone would use this. Thank god there are free options like this in my country, because I would never get back on using Coinbase with them pulling this kind of shit.
10469  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum asking for update again(?) on: April 13, 2019, 07:59:21 PM
Hello
Just upgrading to new Electrum wallet v3.3.4 on Mac OS Mojave... and its asking for my password to open my wallets. That's cool isn't it? Just being scarred by the whole phishing nonsense with an older version is all.
Ta y'all
Did your wallet have a password? If so, it will ask for it when you open it.

Also, where did you downloaded it from? Make sure it was from ELECTRUM.ORG (triple-check the URL) and optionally (but highly recommended) verify the file signature to see if it is legit. Here is how to do it: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/
10470  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Reinstalling Wallet after upgrading my Ubuntu version to 18.04 on: April 13, 2019, 07:07:22 PM
OP use Bitcoin Core, not Electrum. BTW, it's indicated by wallet.dat and bitcoin-qt keyword.
Sorry, I was helping some other dude with his Electrum wallet so I automatically thought he was talking about Electrum... plus, I misread his post. Tongue
10471  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum asking for update again(?) on: April 13, 2019, 07:01:26 PM
1. Why the earlier tx included with the current one?
2. Is this the reason of the error(s) I experienced?
1. I’m not sure. I’ve never seen this happen.
2. I’m pretty sure it is. Until someone who knows things comes here to help you fix that (I don’t know, lol), you could wait for your first tx gets confirmed to spend the coins. You could also try deleting Electrum’s entire folder, installing it again and reimporting your wallet (please make sure you have your seed/backup if you do this).

Quote
Additional question:
What happen if I sign a tx but do not broadcast?
Nothing happens. The moment you broadcast it, the transaction shows up in the nodes mempools around the network to get picked by a miner.

Until you do the broadcast, it’s like the transaction didn’t happen yet. Think of this like writing a letter but not sending it through the mail.
10472  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Reinstalling Wallet after upgrading my Ubuntu version to 18.04 on: April 13, 2019, 06:55:05 PM
Just make sure you have your backup seed written somewhere. With that, you can restore your wallet if anything happens.

If for some reason you don’t have it, make a backup of your wallet file found at the ~/.electrum/wallets folder. Then, try reinstalling Electrum.


Edit: I misread the post and thought you were talking about Electrum. Sorry. In that case, it’s the wallet.dat file you should backup.

~snip~
I am trying to spend 0.005BTC
The fees will be 0.00022031BTC  at 50.3 sat/B (as you can see)

If you check the 4 outputs then you will see the red one is the output that I spent earlier and the tx is still unconfirmed. I am not sure why it's coming in this transaction?
Oh, so the unconfirmed transaction was originated by you? I thought that you were receiving and not spending. In that case, it would be an issue if you were spending an input that was already spent in the pending unconfirmed transaction. So, what do you mean with “one is the output I spent earlier”? You spend inputs and not outputs.

Or are you saying that the output in red (0.01211596 BTC) is part of your first transaction, that you didn’t write that address in this tx and basically it showed up from nowhere?
10474  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum asking for update again(?) on: April 13, 2019, 03:43:22 PM
Do you have any Local transaction in your wallet? If so, remove it and try making the tx again.
I do not have a local transaction but I have an unconfirmed transaction. Is this related to this transaction? If yes then how?

Thanks in advance.
I’m not sure. Since you received the “missing inputs” error, you must be trying to spend the inputs coming from the unconfirmed transaction. Would you mind sharing the tx id of the unconfirmed tx and try making your tx again, but this time pressing “Preview”, “Copy” and pasting what you get here?

Is this instruction necessary for installing every new update?
No. Usually, you can just download and install/run the new update. No need to uninstall the old version.

10476  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Tracking bitcoin payment on: April 13, 2019, 01:23:08 PM
1. Every user has an unique address.
2. Check balance of the address. If balance < copper price: missing (copper price - balance).
3. It’s probably a script on the forum’s backend. It’s not hard. You can make your wallet call a function when receiving a transaction, which will compare the amount with the fixed price of the copper upgrade. If it’s equal or higher, sets your account rank to Copper Member.

You could probably use something like WalletNotify for that: https://github.com/damonp/walletnotify
10477  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: April 13, 2019, 12:05:40 PM
Does anyone know when next sMerit will come back "30 days"? I can’t track the date especially when you have old earned sMerit.
For merit sources? Exactly 30 days after they were spent.

Spend 3 sMerits on 01/04 -> get 3 sMerits after 30 days (01/05).
Spend 4 sMerits on 02/04 -> get 3 sMerits after 30 days (02/05).
10478  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: April 13, 2019, 10:49:23 AM
Well, why that?
You censored valid merit transactions? If bitcoin forum is all about meme and April fools’ you should pass this information.
My two cents.

Well, theymos reversed them. It was all a joke and there were people who gave +300 merits to it that could have been sent to real users who are in need of merit.
10479  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: bestmixer or chipmixer? on: April 13, 2019, 12:18:42 AM
been using chipmixer for a while and its the preferred method, very much thanks to premixed chips.

I can after 1 confirmation  to chipmixer already move my funds.

With bestmixer, im not sure now if this was bestmixer or another service, but i did a blockchain analysis, basically i just looked up my transactions and they went straight from A to B to C.

Where A and C was me. I dont remember the details now, but it was a VERY obvious failure in mixing as all i need to check was the transaction on any blockchain explorer to see exactly where the coins went.

Maybe someone else noted this in past and can confirm which mixer it really was?

I also think chipmixer should add some random minimum fee, i only recently noticed it was a pay what you want service lol. I think this would enhance the privacy further.
They deal with chips with fixed amount, so that wouldn’t really work. The only way I could see that working is if they, for example, created chips of 0.0998 BTC for those who deposited 0.01, 0.0319 for 0.032 and etc, or something like this (chips lower than input to collect the difference as fees), but that’s not really their idea. A “pay-what-you-want” fee structure usually serves as a good marketing strategy.

Did you get your funds?

I know someone who works there, but you have to know amount of BTC and public key

OP has been offline for more than 1 month. I don’t think he’ll see this post.

But try PM’ing him, if he used his real email for his acc, he’ll get one saying that he has a new message.
