I edited a post made in 2019 successfully and got the same error when trying to edit a post made in 2017.
Update:
I tried again and could edit the post I had made in 2017. It seems that there is no issue anymore.

Thank you for the reply. I downloaded the list from this tweet and found out that I had 1 GT.  Although it was still a possibility but the actual winner obviously deserved it more since he had 7k GT. Sorry. As you said "the previous round" and the tickets list for round 8 had been already shared by TheQuin, I thought you were referring to the round 7. The last round (in which someone with around 7000 tickets won the lambo) was round 8. If you want to see round 8 tickets list, just scroll up. The list has been already shared by TheQuin. |

It's interesting who of us here in this thread had the largest amount of tickets, and who won the Lambo?
Someone with 7,021 tickets won the lambo.  Is there any way to check how many GT I had in the previous round ?
Click here. Download round 7 tickets list and find your user ID. Edit: I thought by previous round you mean round 7. To see round 8 tickets list, just scroll up and download the file shared by TheQuin. |

I just extracted some data from the file shared on twitter. The total number of tickets is 1,865,694. There are 90,364 users with at least 1 ticket. In other words, 90,364 users have chance to win the lambo. Below are the top 10 users with most number of tickets. | ____________ | ________ | | UserID | Tickets | | ____________ | ________ | | 22123 | 104,045 | | 7015442 | 74,329 | | 11153761 | 44,445 | | 37419370 | 32,343 | | 37407718 | 26,015 | | 18179044 | 21,936 | | 629796 | 19,204 | | 38757724 | 14,119 | | 47773502 | 13,590 | | 50662359 | 12,497 | | ____________ | ________ |
There are 52,249 users with exactly 1 ticket. There are 12,378 users with exactly 2 tickets. There are 4,873 users with exactly 3 tickets. There are 2,726 users with exactly 4 tickets. There are 3,595 users with exactly 5 tickets. There are 1,891 users with exactly 6 tickets There are 1,306 users with exactly 7 tickets. There are 833 users with exactly 8 tickets.

If you want to be completely secure, your separate device should be airgapped. In this way, you can be sure that there wouldn't be any way for hackers to get access to your wallet. Otherwise, your wallet would be always prone to hacking. Also make sure that you use a open-source trustworthy wallet which gives you full access to your keys.
In the case you can't have an air-gapped device for any reason, you can consider using a hardware wallet.

I'll try to find an alternative wallet, thanks for all.
If you want to set the fee rate manually to any amount you want, as suggested by Charles-Tim in the first reply, you can use bluewallet. Bluewallet gives you three estimations (fast, medium and slow) and it also allows you to set the fee rate manually. Another good thing about bluewallet is that you can import your seed phrase to it even if it has been generated by electrum. |

Any coins belong to burn addresses are the 100% proof if the coins are lost.
There is no proof that coins sent to burn addresses have been lost. In theory, it's possible that someone already have the private key of such addresses or someone will be able to brute-force them in the future. The only coins that are provably lost forever are those that haven't been claimed as block reward by miners and those that have been burnt using OP_return outputs. |

A collection of these mempools makes a pool of global mempools.
Each node has its own mempool. It's possible that a node has your transaction in its mempool while another mempool doesn't have it. So, what happens if all other mempools running on all other 'n-1' nodes stop broadcasting my transaction, but my specifc node keeps re-broadcasting/relaying it to all othe nodes? My node just wants to keep pushing it through at a low fee with no success.
If your node rebroadcast your transaction, the nodes that receive the transaction will ignore it if they already have it in their mempool. In the case they don't have it, they put it in their mempool and relay it to other nodes. Note that if the size of mempool of a node has reached its limit and the fee rate of your transaction is lower than all the transactions in the mempool, there wouldn't be any room for your transaction. |

.......you have to take note that these wallets are also taking some little commission for the fees that they ask. ...............
Due to obvious reasons, I don't like blockchain.com and I would never recommend anyone to use it, but you are wrong here. Blockchain.com is a non-custodial wallet and it doesn't charge you any extra fee. All the fee you pay go to miners. You have to pay fee to blockchain.com, only if you use their exchange. |

Now I wonder how the default rate was set. It appears they were asking 50 sat per transaction.
Miners are free even to include transaction paying zero fee, but nodes consider any transaction paying less than 1 sat/vbyte as non-standard and reject them. So, the minimum fee rate you can set for your transaction is 1 sat/vbyte. Note that the transaction fee equals to the fee rate multiplied by (virtual) size of transaction and miners prioritize transactions based on their fee rate, not their absolute fee. There is no such thing as 50 sat per transaction. |

you can also download Trust Wallet from either the Play Store or the App Store and import your seed phrase using it.
Please don't suggest a close-source wallet like trustwallet for bitcoin while there are many better alternatives.
So are you saying that in addition to the 6.25 BTC that a miner wins for solving a block,
there are also transaction fees added?
Miners get the newly generated coins and transaction fees. If the miner can add a transaction for the fee later, how does that prevent them
from taking more Satoshi for the fee than was agreed?
The fee is determined by the one who makes the transaction. It's not that miners can charge you any amount they want. Whenever you make a bitcoin transaction, you set a fee rate and miners prioritize transactions based on their fee rate. |

Should I buy an hardware wallet in order to diversify risk or paper wallet is enough ?
Electrum (if it's used properly) would be secure and you won't need a hardware wallet. Take note that if you want to be completely secure, you should run electrum on an air-gapped device. Otherwise, your wallet would be always prone to hacking. If you can't have an air-gapped device for any reason, it would be better to go for a hardware wallet. Also note that you won't have a secure wallet just with generating a private key and address and printing it on a paper. A paper wallet is secure, only if it's generated using the correct method. This means that it should be generated using a safe tool on a safe device. I also recommend you to work with a HD wallet with a seed phrase. In this way, you can have numerous addresses all generated by a seed phrase. You can write down your seed phrase easily on a paper while there's a big possibility that you make a mistake when writing a private key. Do splitting 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 of bitcoin in 3 different wallet/private key would eventually diminish risk instead of only one wallet ?
You can do that. But a single wallet would be enough if that have been generated in the correct way. Again, you only need to keep your seed phrase. You won't need to keep individual private keys. What about multisig ? Running my own node ? Useless in my case ?
All depend on your needs. If you want to generate a wallet, send some bitcoin to that and just hold them, you won't need to run your own node. With using a multi-signature wallet, you would need multiple seed phrases for accessing your fund and in this way, you may increase your security. Use a multi-signature wallet, only if you know what exactly you are doing. |

First of all note that the fee you pay for your transaction is paid to miners, not blockhain.com wallet (formerly known as blockchain.info) and that depends on number of inputs and outputs, the network state, your address(es) type and how fast you want your tranaction to be confirmed.
I guess you have received a lot of transactions to your wallet and now you want to spend the whole balance. Am I right?
The more inputs you have, the more fee you have to pay to miners.
By the way, 15,000 satoshi is worth around 4.5 dollars, not 15 dollars.

I'm considering writing it down on a piece of paper and storing it in a safe or safety deposit box, but I've also heard about other methods like engraving it on metal or storing it on a USB drive.
It's surely a good idea to use a stainless steel metal plate instead of a paper. In this way, your backup would be resistant to fire, water, etc. I recommend you to visit the following topic and see how fillippone used washers for securing the seed phrase. Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers |

It's not the first you have received email from the address in question and you should know that it's a scam. You have probably asked for a deposit to be able to receive a payment and you are going to spam the forum with asking the same thing again and again. OP has posted the same email address in this post. |

The total supply affects when someone burns coin from the chain. A lot of tokens have this functionality. But as of now, bitcoin is out of it.
To burn your bitcoin, you can send them to OP_return outputs. Such outputs are not added to the UTXO set at all and are provably burned. As I said in my previous post, miners can also burn coins with not claiming the block reward when they find a block. |

I have read few posts of persons talking about losing their wallet's containing BTC and couldn't recover it at all. Hence, as people keep losing their BTC due to loss of wallet seed phrase, can it affect or cause a decline in BTC supply entirely?
Coins lost due to losing private keys or seed phrase are out of circulation, but they are not provably removed from the circulation. The only coins that are provably removed and will be never spendable are those that are haven't been claimed by the miners and those that have been burned using OP_RETURN. |

When I set the password, I also did not choose to encrypt the file. I only have the saved wallet file left.
This doesn't change anything. If you unchecked "Encrypt wallet file" when creating the wallet, now you can open the wallet file and see your balance, transactions history and addresses, but you will still need the password for making any transaction. Your secrets like your seed phrase are encrypted. |
|
|
|
In the case you have some idea about your password and it includes only a few characters, you may be able to brute-force your password using BTCRecover. Otherwise, there won't be any way to recover your wallet and the fund is gone forever. |
