I have a question. What is the quality to become a trusted escrow ? I do not make many trades here because I do not want to sell my bitcoin. However, I want to become a person who can hold an escrow for some trade or signature campaign. I would help me to earn extra income and I can also earn more trust point here
Thanks in advance
Be trustworthy enough that people ask you to escrow their deals. How to become trustworthy? -> http://www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Trustworthy-Person [1] [1] just googled the question and clicked the first link. Was surpisingly good advice. |

• If somebody asks a specific question and it gets answered adequately within the first post or two nobody needs to read another ten replies saying the same thing just reworded slightly. If you cannot offer any additional info or clarify/correct something then you probably don't need to post it.
Is it okay that from now on reporting such repeatedly posts to get it removed or it will be monitored manually by mods? Are you going to delete them or just leave it be and just warn the poster? Report away, the post in question will likely not be removed and the user might not get banned. Over time though mods will see the same names pop up in reported posts and have an idea who to watch closely. |

Da ich weder vom Fach bin und dazu noch paranoid möchte ich das alles Offline halten (also deinstallieren).
Das ist nicht offline. Bei offline wallets geht es darum das der private Schlüssel (oder der Seed) niemals(!) online war. Wenn Du jetzt mit deinem Telefon ne App installierst, WLAN aus machst, den Seed erzeugst, abschreibst, auf löschen drückst und WLAN wieder an machst, ist der Seed nicht unbedingt weg und auch nicht klar ob du wirklich Offline warst. Empfiehlt es sich bei jeder Aufstockung ein neues "Konto"( Private Key, Masterseed) zu generieren?
Ein Seed reicht, private Schlüssel erzeugt sich die Wallet bei Bedarf aus diesem. Wenn Du ernsthaft alle deine Ersparnisse in Bitcoin anlegen willst solltest du entweder ein bisschen Geld in eine Hardware Wallet investieren oder dich zumindest erstmal ausführlich mit dem Thema Cold Storrage beschäftigen. Ein alter Laptop mit Linux und Electrum halte ich persönlich z.B. für ne gute Idee für größere Beträge an die man selten muss. Einem Telefon würde ich nicht mehr anvertrauen als ich auch in die Hosentasche stecken würde. |

-snip- Lustig wirds, wenn jene den Priv-Key sniffen mit der offiziellen Begründung "Steuerprüfung" [damit ich noch die Ontopickurve kriege  ] Selbst schuld wenn du über sign-over-telnet machst. /s -snip- DAS Linux was DU meinst, befindet sich in der GRUB Shell eines VLM verschlüsselten Systemes... Und mit DEINEM Login ist die gesamte Festplatte auch weiterhin verschlüsselt. Also nichts mit Fernzugriff und mit Rotrechten irgendwas installieren oder sonstwas, da du physisch anwesend sein musst, ich physisch abwesend sein muss, ich so dumm sein muss kein BIOS Passwort zu setzen und du brauchst viel Zeit zum entschlüsseln. DEIN Linuxhack entspricht in etwa dem Ausbau einer Festplatte und Anschluss an anderem Rechner. Heise LinkWir sind echt weit vom Thema entfernt, aber kurzer Einwurf hier: Ich konnte die Lücke auf nem angeblich befallenen System nicht bestätigen. Im Gegenteil, nach 4 Minuten ENTER drücken blieb mir nichts als die Kiste neu zu starten. Ein Vorteil von Linux (um mal den Bogen halbwegs zu spannen) gegenüber z.B. Windows ist doch gerade die Diversität. Linux ist eben nicht gleich Linux, es gibt diverse Distros und Kernel Varianten und eine Lücke greift eher selten alle Varianten an. |

Good that it was found out so fast. Even before something was invested. Refunding is a huge and time intensive hassle.
I also was asked but self moderated thread and instantly starting ICO is not a good sign.
Yeah, there were other red flags as well. I should have some time tomorrow to write a bit more about this from my perspective. |

danke für die anregungen.
@shorena:
die version zu updaten habe ich schonmal versucht, dabei kam es zu inkompatibilität mit der wallet.dat. Gibt es eine genaue vorgehensweise wie das update vollzogen werden muss?
#1 backup von der wallet.dat erstellen #2 neue version runterladen[1] und verifizieren[2] #3 neue version installieren #4 beim ersten start mit -upgradewallet starten (wie oben beschrieben, nur den Befehl entsprechend ersetzen) #5 danach mit zapwallettxes. und wenn das update funktioniert hat, beudeutet "TX ist auch raus", dass die bitcoins dann wieder auf meiner wallet zur verfügung stehen? denn so wie ich das verstanden habe, sind die bitcoins noch garnicht wirklich aus meiner wallet raus.
Ja, sorry war ein bisschen flapsig formuliert. Für die wallet ist es danach so als hättest du die Transaktion nie getätigt. Deine Bitcoin sind gerade irgendwo zwischen deiner Wallet und der Wallet wo sie hin sollen. Je nachdem welchen Knoten im Netzwerk du fragst kann die Antwort auf die Frage wo genau anders ausfallen. Das bleibt auch so bis die Transaktion (oder eine die die selben Bitcoin ausgibt) bestätigt ist. Mit zapwallettxes entfernst du alle unbestätigten Transaktionen von deinem Knoten, damit du eine neue Transaktion erstellen kannst. @mezzomix
für deine variante bräuchte ich dann allerdings noch weitere bitcoins auf meiner wallet oder? da sind derzeit keine freien zur verfügung, da sie alle in der festhängenden transaktion stecken.

Es ist unüblich das du einen privaten Schlüssel direkt eingibst, normalerweise hat man eine Wallet die genau das für dich macht und durch ein Password geschützt ist. Was ist den die genaue Meldung? Bist du auf der korrekten Seite?

Hallo,
ich leide an dem selben problem wie der thread-ersteller. ich benutze eine ziemlich alte version von bitcoin core bzw. bitcoin qt (v0.8.6-beta).
habe am 03.11.2016 eine transaktion zu bitcoin.de gestartet, allerdings sind wohl auch hier die gebühren viel zu gering gewesen, sodass die transaktion festhängt und dauerhaft 0 bestätigungen hat.
habe die wallet jetzt mit dem befehlt -zapwallettxes wie oben beschrieben gestartet und die transaktion hat sich scheinbar resettet ?! jedenfalls ist die information "über 4652 knoten übertragen" (was bedeutet das eigentlich?) unter den transaktionsdetails verschwunden.
die transaktion ist jedoch immernoch zu sehen und scheint nicht abgebrochen zu sein? wie schaffe ich es nun, das die bitcoins wieder zurück in meine wallet kommen?
bin etwas ratlos, kann mir jemand weiterhelfen?
gruß csa
In deiner Version gibt es den Befehl noch nicht. Updaten und dann nochmal so starten und die TX ist auch raus. |

Do we not already have a jury? All those on the default trust network high enough for their ratings to matter can negate and thus essentially remove ratings by others. All other ratings usually do not matter. I got some very obvious "false" trust feedback on my profile. At the very best it serves as a joke for some.

I know that if just 1 people do it, it won't possible because the miner will check the transaction.
But how if everyone tries to do it, I mean like how if they add all of the Bitcoin address a 1 Bitcoin. Would the miner think that those are valid transactions because all the ledger have those transactions in it?
Thats not how bitcoin works. Addresses have no balance where you could just add 1 BTC. You just reference a transaction ID. If you want to "cheat" you could reference a transaction ID that does not exist, but the resulting transaction would be invalid, because every full node would check the inputs (the tx id refernced). If the full node does not know about it, every transaction referencing it is considered invalid. Miners are full nodes, they would just refuse your transaction as invalid.
How do you pretend that "everyone is going to cheat the blockchain"? In order to do any relevant changes you need control of 51%+ of the network, this is already hard to do, now you explain me how everyone is going to perform a 51% attack? this makes no sense sorry.
Even with 50% or more of the hashpower you have to follow the rules of the network. You still cant just create coins. You can mine them like everyone else and would mine the majority, but you cant mine more per block. A "51%"-attack allows you to block any transaction as long as you hold the majority of the hashing power.
I know that if just 1 people do it, it won't possible because the miner will check the transaction.
But how if everyone tries to do it, I mean like how if they add all of the Bitcoin address a 1 Bitcoin. Would the miner think that those are valid transactions because all the ledger have those transactions in it?
Actually bro, you need to know that blockchain is combined with the factors such as anonymous and open ledger view for all the btc addresses. Mining is not at involved in these things and only you can see how many blocks it need to complete the transaction. Bitcoin is not anonymous!
I know that if just 1 people do it, it won't possible because the miner will check the transaction.
But how if everyone tries to do it, I mean like how if they add all of the Bitcoin address a 1 Bitcoin. Would the miner think that those are valid transactions because all the ledger have those transactions in it?
It is not necessarily to hack the bockchain because of its security features. Besides, base on the aritcle that I read, most commonly way of hacking the wallet is through SQL injection. And using that way would not be effective for blockchain's system. What? Kind? Of? Wallet? Do? You? Use? |

Before when days were missing they compensated this days with an extra entry. So far this is not done for the missing days and you didn't get credited the payment for e/a. Maybe they still can add this days with an new entry specially when you miss 11 days.

From the randomness I suspect its a timing issue. IIRC the forum will block requests that happen more than once a second. Maybe achow101 can help out, he wrote bctalkaccountpricer[1] which does a high number of requests without issue. [1] https://www.bctalkaccountpricer.info |

Shorena , thanks again. I'm not completely unfamiliar with encryption and security as I have used Truecrypt in the past. I've been down this rabbit hole before, but for different reasons. Well, no, I guess it's ultimately for the same reason > the protection of MY data. I understand the live CD idea, although I think it's a pain in the butt. But I will do it because it's absolutely needed. (even though I don't have SSD) I still agree it's necessary. I'm just not sure I'm ready to go down this rabbit hole again when it involves money. I mean, there's so many ?'s that I NEED to understand. 1st question would be to question the bitaddress.org generation process. (the math behind it, not the actual mechanical moves I need to click) I know it's generally trusted and accepted and let's be real, that makes it a target. It does and you probably read the remark on gmaxwell here about in browser software -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1013586.msg10995631#msg10995631So, you mentioned encrypting my private key. Yes, I totally agree. I currently use a fairly popular pw manager that generates random pw's for you. I have it set to use 32 characters, Upper -lower, #'s and special characters and even obscure words if it wants. THE TRUTH IS > I DON'T EVEN KNOW MY PASSWORDS... That's the truth. But so far I've only changed my pw's to this format for such things as facebook, email, social media stuff, forums like this, nothing really critical. Password managers are great, but they are also a single point of failure. If the file is gone and the password is known all your passwords are known. That does not mean you shouldnt use one. It just means you should be aware of the risks and e.g. keep it locked most of the time. But I'm thinking if I implement the live CD part, the bitaddress.org part with BIP38 and a random generated PW that is say....100 characters in length, I'm thinking I'd be pretty damn secure. Light years ahead of most noobs at the least.
Thats a good point. I dont see a particular problem with using bitaddress.org to generate addresses even though I agree with most of the points Blazr made in the other thread. I'm not a mathematician though. So I can't calculate out how long it would take to brute force something like that. I imagine it would take longer than the universe has been around. But I'm pretty confident I'm on the right track with security. What is your take on Trezor? My take is that if it's man made, it WILL fail. Period. Just a matter of time..... for example, can a Trezor withstand incredibly strong magnets? What about an EMP pulse? Or, am I missing the point entirely because they can all be "restored" from a seed? (?)
I dont own a hardware wallet, but from what I can tell they are pretty secure against several types of attacks. I'd like to be able to chat with you real time if possible....I'll leave that up to you as to how and even if you would be willing to do that. Because even with your input HERE, I am by no means even remotely close to being comfortable enough to say, > YES, I'M SURE I know what I'm doing. How am I supposed to get others involved with btc when I can't even explain the security aspect of it in a mathematical way. "Just trust it" - doesn't cut it with me, and it's not going to cut it with others either.
To the other fella / gal that mentioned deleted files aren't really deleted, (essentially), I agree. Can't speak for Shorena but I'd be flabbergasted if he/she didn't already know that as well but MANY people are not even aware of that fact. So, thank you for bringing it up. Perhaps it will help others in the future.
I will probably hang around in #bitcoin[1]. [1] https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/IRC_channels |

Shorena...... Thank you so much for your very detailed answer. Let me clarify something please. When I said at the very start "Assuming my PC isn't infected...." The rest of what I wrote would seem to = true. It's actually quite the opposite, as you stated. I DON'T assume my PC is clean. I MUST assume it is compromised already (which I do), despite the various virus scans, malware scans etc that I do routinely that always come up "clean."
Clean or not, when it comes to my money or btc, I STILL must assume it's compromised. What I was implying was mathematical really. If PC / (any operating system able to generate the keys) = Clean...then the rest of what I wrote would seem to = true, if I read your response correctly.
Kinda, yes. The critical part is to make sure you completly remove the data before you go back online. Thus it would be better (I think someone suggested this upthread) to use a live linux system. You can download and verify the download even on a compromised system or -even better- use a DVD/CD (not USB) created on a clean system. Tails is great for that as it was designed under the premise to leave no trace on the system its booted on. You asked about what my security concerns / threats were. Mine are strictly hackers, glitches in "the system", etc..... I do not keep my btc on exchanges etc for this very reason. I am not worried about family members, home intruders, etc. As for my private key, I believe 3 to 4 copies should suffice. My brother would get a copy. My best friend would get a copy, and my wife and I would have a copy and perhaps her parents would have a copy. (you gotta trust somebody) They are all spread out all over the country.
That sounds very secure in terms of desaster as well as hackers as long as they know how to handle private keys (e.g. dont upload them to dropbox or google drive). You could do one better and use encrypted private keys. Bitaddress.org has a mode for this. The password can be simple or the key can be in a sealed envelope. The parents might have a safe where you can store it? As for "wiping" the free space, I'm not going to insult your intelligence. You know there are programs out there that claim to do just that, but I get the feeling you have some sort of issue with this from a security standpoint or you wouldn't have brought it up. So...??
See above, use a live linux. I just stumbled over the word I guess. Data can be increasingly problematic to remove from a disk. Mechnical disks are fine once the data is overwritten several times. SSDs not so, they do not allow direct access to the sectors to reduce wear. The best approach here is to avoid data written to disk in the first place. The simplest solution for this is a live OS that does not automatically mounts the hard drives. It sounds to me like what I've concluded is correct, now I just need to figure out how to generate a clean, uncomprimizable key pair ---- which I absolutely DO NOT TRUST my PC to do. That seems to me to be the bottom line in my whole security "plan." *IF* I can get a secure key pair, the rest of my plan should be ok. Right? If not, please tell me where the holes are so I can re-think it. Thanks again.
Yes. An alternative that might work slightly better, just because its easiert to write down, would be to generate an electrum seed instead of a single private key. IIRC Tails even comes with an electrum version, but I would still download and verify the latest (currently 2.7.12) one. This would give you words to secure and they are less likely to write and read wrong. I dont think its too much a of difference though, because Im sure you will be extra careful when writing it down. |
