I'm trying to send some BTC from my Bitcoin Core wallet to coinbase. You've been collecting Bitcoin dust. This isn't the moment to consolidate 15,000 bytes of small inputs. If you really want to make a transaction now, you should first Enable coin control features in Bitcoin Core Settings, then select Inputs on the Send tab, sort them by Amount, and manually choose the highest inputs only. Look at these inputs: ![Image loading...](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Floyce.club%2Fother%2Fdust.png&t=663&c=n-P8WbOtcUycqg) I've set it to show USD instead of BTC because it's easier to see low amounts. The 17.06 USD and 33.27 USD are perfectly fine to send right now. If you select those, you pay a reasonable fee. However, all those inputs less than a dollar can easily eat up more in fees than they're worth. So leave them out, or select them in a separate transaction that will consolidate maybe even weeks later (as long as Bitcoin Core keeps broadcasting the transaction).
In the future, if possible: switch to using a Bech32 Segwit address (the one starting with bcq1). It reduces your sending fees.
N00b help here! Lol ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Just so you know: after you've secured your Bitcoin, you also own about $22 worth of Forkcoins. Getting them is a bit above n00b level though, and you shouldn't try to get them before all your Bitcoins are confirmed on a new address.

Kraken has just announced that they are going to enable withdrawals and deposits over the Lightning Network in the first half of the next year. They still have to start hiring a team to start LN implementation, but it's something ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I'm curious what limits they'll choose: they probably don't allow withdrawing very low amounts and I don't expect very low fees either. They don't even allow trading cents for performance reasons. Do you think it will set off a chain reaction among other exchanges? Probably not, but if that happens arbitrage trading is going to be fun if you can make large-transfers between exchanges in a few seconds.

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" I'm not willing to allow "*", so I added this: # Added 21-8-2020 based on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5167469.msg55037886#msg55037886 Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://bitcointalk.org" # Added 18-12-2020 based on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5246271.msg55854208#msg55854208 Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://bitcoindata.science" Let me know if it still doesn't work.

This forum should not do anything that gives off the impression it's trying to protect newbies from scams, when the scams are not moderated. Scams aren't moderated, but posting a phishing link is a bannable offense. I made this suggestion several years ago. Let's see: Or maybe any link that is not a bitcointalk.org link could change to red or some other color. And 2.5 weeks later: Maybe a better idea would be making the non bitcointalk.org links red? Theymos didn't like the negative connection with red and links [Citation needed] Maybe try using the search function next time? Indeed. I've suggested before that all external links take you to a landing page first as a security measure with a warning to double check the url or something before you leave the site. That would give a buffer or a barrier against phishing links etc. I've read the suggestion before, but it never got implemented. I wouldn't like such a feature as it takes longer to open a link (unless it can be disabled through profile settings).

I like it, although I don't think I'll ever use it to really play. I'm not disappointed being made a King ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Who's going to be the Joker?

Just a thought: it took me a very long time before I realized on-forum links turn green when I hover my mouse above them. The color difference is barely noticeable on my screen. So why not make all external links red on mouse hover? I can't create BBCode to demonstrate this, but with my mouse above a link to another website it will should like this. It seems like a very small change that makes the difference very clear. Update: credit where credit is due: Quickseller suggested this 4.5 years ago: Or maybe any link that is not a bitcointalk.org link could change to red or some other color.

That's not a bug, it means the post was edited within 10 minutes.

I'm not sure I follow your logic here. If people have to send their dust to an address you provide, then you've already given the attackers what they want - the dust to move in a transaction. Even if you don't move the dust until you have 200 inputs to consolidate, the information has already been leaked by the first transaction, no? There's not much to leak if it's only one dust-transaction, right? Except for the fact that someone still has access to that address. (I'm ignoring the fact that it's too small to send) That was the logic behind the NONE and ANYONECANPAY flags on Peter Todd's system. There is no transaction prior to large consolidation transaction including multiple users' inputs. That does sound much cooler indeed, if I have the time I'll play around with it. I'm far too paranoid to run this though: Dust-B-Gone ===========
Cleans your Bitcoin Core wallet of unwanted dust.
Usage:
./dust-b-gone.py

I accelerate Via BTC Dot Com Accelerator.
I Paid So much more than $800 But no luck I don't know if that accelerator is even real, but $800 is a very high amount for this. If you would have sent your funds from your own output address to another one of your addresses, 20% of what you paid now (say 0.008 BTC as a transaction fee) would have been enough for a fairly fast confirmation using CPFP (Child Pays For Parent). It doesn't help you now, but for the future: if you consolidate your Bitcoin when fees are low, you save a lot if you want to make a transaction when fees are high (say in a bull run).

For certain wallets, there are ways to just isolate the UTXO and ensure that your wallet will never attempt to spend it. I've seen a locking/freezing feature for inputs (or addresses) in Bitcoin Core, Electrum and Coinomi. Once locked, you can't spend it without unlocking it. Don't forget you have to lock it again if you ever import your mnemonic into a new wallet. Except for on mobile wallets I always use Coin Control, and if you manually select which inputs to use, you can add 546 sat to a bigger input on the same address as long if you can send with 1 sat/byte fee. That being said, I've never received any free dust myself ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) We do not currently have any "burning" option. One thing you can do is send your coins to an address nobody owns (create an empty wallet and send your dust there) or send it to the address from the first (Genesis) block (12c6DSiU4Rq3P4ZxziKxzrL5LmMBrzjrJX). I've thought about creating a service for this for a while, but haven't found an easy way to make sure a Bitcoin address only gets shown once on a website. My idea was to provide a list of unique Bitcoin addresses anyone can use to send their dust to, and I promise not to move the funds until there are a. at least 200 inputs or b. 10 years have passed.

I assume, considering the relatively small amount, I should consider it lost... Even if you consider it lost: keep it anyway ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

encryption BIP38, and now no way to get the password.
Any chance I could recover it? BIP38 encryption is very difficult to brute-force, it requires a lot of CPU power for each try. See I'm BIP38 curious, please help me out! for instance, where a 1 Bitcoin reward (I think up to $1000 at the time) wasn't enough to crack a wallet with 6 random characters, even after giving a few hints. Since then, CPU power got cheaper and Bitcoin got more expensive, but if you used any serious password, the only way to recover your funds is if you can somehow remember the password. Maybe start with common passwords you've used at the time, possibly with small variations? You can use bitaddress.org (download it and run it from an offline LIVE Linux DVD) to securely try passwords without risking them to any possible malware on your system.
