12981  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BTCFinder, Check Private Key of multiple Bitcoin addresses in Web on: April 26, 2018, 05:30:23 PM
"Address list is stored on your local system and not saved on any server"

This is a lie. How on earth can I trust a website that sends my private-keys to a php page which I can't know what is happening? One thing is to use (preferably locally) based on Javascript and that doesn't require any internet connection or a unknown server back-end. But using a third-party website that does everything on the server-side and requires internet connection? You are crazy.

AVOID THIS WEBSITE AT ALL COSTS!
12982  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Electrum to Electron Cash is VIEW ONLY MODE on: April 25, 2018, 11:37:22 PM
Where did you get this master key that you are using to create the view-only wallet? If it was from your Electrum wallet, which options did you select to show it?

And is this Electrum wallet in view-only?
12983  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: problem whit fees in electrum wallet on: April 25, 2018, 09:43:34 PM
Today we had a spike on the number of transactions, and consequently, the fees got higher. You can see it better with this website[1].

Everything has already been normalized, so the fees should be low again.

12984  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Vendor accidentally Sent BTC to an Electron Cash BCH Address - Can I Sweep? on: April 25, 2018, 09:39:57 PM
It's easy. Just download Electrum[1] (for Bitcoin) and either:

a. Open your Electron Cash wallet file with with;
b. Or restore your Electron Cash wallet seed into Electrum.

Then, just send your coins to the address you want.

I strongly advise using Cryptonite by MetaCert!
It's a Chrome plugin that warns you if you get redirected to a phishing site. In addition MetaMask, a hardware wallet and/or an offline version of MyEtherWallet.
I already suggested this before and it would helpagainst phising websites like MyEthreWallet dot com, but would this work if the official MEW domain (or the DNS in this case) was hijacked? According to the reddit post OP linked above, the user "Used EAL" (which is a similar extension) to check if the url was correct. But this was not the issue and that's why he still got scammed.

The two best solutions would be to always check the SSL certificate right before the URL or by always running the wallet locally from the source code.
12986  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22] on: April 25, 2018, 05:07:28 PM
i have an old laptop   its saying it will take 50 days to generate the address.. is this normal.. and will it harm my computer?
Depends. If you are trying to generate a vanity address with many characters and/or case-sensitive, the difficulty will be higher and it's obvious going to take a while. But keep in mind that this is
an estimate.
12987  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: There's a vulnerability found in MEW. on: April 25, 2018, 04:26:09 PM
Perhaps if you will only check the balance of your ETH.
Why? Can't you do everything in the local version - including creating and broadcasting transactions?

Are you saying that there are limitations?
12988  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Difference in BTC & btc on: April 25, 2018, 12:30:02 AM
Is there a difference in 0.01BTC and 0.01btc? It's hard to believe Helix would charge $95 simply for a grams account.
No? BTC and btc are the same thing. And about which "Helix" are you talking about? If you're talking about the Bitcoin mixer and the "Darknet search engine", both stopped working on December 2017. Can you provide more info on what you bought and where?

I had always thought mBTC and uBTC were the other denominations (for lack of a better word). I appreciate any help.
They are.
12989  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: forum signature maker on: April 24, 2018, 11:00:31 PM
what about the 777 on the left side of your post? Is that an image?
You can't use images in the signature space. Nothing you see there is an image.

what activity do you need to that on your posts?
Hero Member or Legendary because he is using "glow" in his signature (the dark-blue background behind the 777coin text). Everything is explained in the two threads I linked above.
12990  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: There's a vulnerability found in MEW. on: April 24, 2018, 10:16:33 PM
Easiest solution ever: Download the MEW source code from its GitHub repo (https://github.com/kvhnuke/etherwallet/releases) and always run it locally. No more DNS spoofing!
12991  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: forum signature maker on: April 24, 2018, 09:22:52 PM
so your signature is not an image?
It's not. You can see the bbcode in this thread.

It looks nice. May I ask how you made it?
According to the trust left by ChipMixer, it was the user roslinpl. And here is the thread where he sells his signature design services.
12992  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Using one vs multible addresses on: April 24, 2018, 09:18:20 PM
Wouldn't this save me some fees when I spend the coins?
No. An input is an input. It doesn't matter if you receive 10 transactions in the same address or in 10 different addresses.

Why shouldn't I use the same address for every transaction?
Privacy.

To be more precise, the reuse of bitcoin addresses exposes both the initial user holding said funds and everyone else who becomes a future recipient of that bitcoin balance. Anyone who is actively monitoring the bitcoin blockchain to link identities to transactions will pounce on such opportunities with relative ease. Every time one uses the same address, any transaction linked to it in the past, present, and future will have their history exposed to prying eyes.

12993  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum doesn't restore right wallet address on: April 24, 2018, 08:33:18 PM
If it's a Bech32 address then just add p2wpkh: in front of the private key.
Eg p2wpkh:KPrivateKey
Can you make a topic for this on this board? Many people will need this.
Google couldn't tell me this, and it's great information for segwit adoption.

I'd make the topic myself, but I don't want to steal your thunder.
And he did... Here it is for anyone who cares:

12994  Other / New forum software / Re: Tag notification on Bitcointalk on: April 24, 2018, 08:09:50 PM
Nope I don't think he means the follower system.What he mean is,he needs to have a notification sent to him if a members tags his user-name in a post.Similar to telegram/facebook.I'm not sure if this is discussed somewhere but considering the new website (if ever launched) will have the notification system,this wouldn't be a big feature to add.
Ahh, I see... For some reason I thought he meant something like "adding a tag to the user", and not literally tagging him in a post.
IIRC, this feature is already available in the new beta software (which is unavailable right now for some reason).

Sorry @shield132 Tongue
12995  Other / New forum software / Re: Tag notification on Bitcointalk on: April 24, 2018, 07:43:40 PM
So, basically a "Follow Member" system?

Someone suggested the same here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3017552.0
12996  Other / Meta / Re: Why we don't ban abusers? on: April 24, 2018, 02:41:47 PM
Having alt accounts is not against rules.
However, I remember there was one case when moderator banned 200 alt accounts.
Reminds me of this case where the mods banned a whole office. Shocked

No, because they will create new accounts and start doing the same thing over and over again.
It's not that easy anymore because they will need tons of merit to rank up. If we ban all the old farmed accounts who are already Sr/Hero Member, those spammers will end up running out of accounts.
12997  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Electrum Ripple Wallet on: April 24, 2018, 02:00:32 PM
I'm 100% sure this is a fake wallet.

1. There is no mentions about this wallet or website anywhere;
2. There is no github link in the page. The git icon at the top leads to the original Electum (BTC) repo;
3. The twitter icon leads to the original Electrum twitter account;

The whole website tries to make you think that this wallet was created by the same devs from the original Electrum wallet - which is not true. E.g: The docs page tells you to visit docs.electrum.org, and to email admin-xrp@electrum.org if there is any issues. So, don't download it.
12998  Other / Meta / Re: I have no merits to send?? on: April 24, 2018, 01:56:15 PM
Have you tried reading the Merit & new rank requirements thread?

You get merit points when someone sends you some for one of your posts. Additionally, when someone sends you merit points, half of those points can be sent by you to other people.

Certain users are designated as "merit sources". They can create new merit out of nothing, up to a limited number per month (which differs per source). I will not be posting a definitive list of merit sources (so that people don't bug them too much), though you'll soon figure out who they are if you pay attention.
12999  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: MyEtherWallet login problem on: April 24, 2018, 01:47:55 PM
You NEED to do what is writen at the top of the MEW page to avoid getting phished.

DON'T GET PHISHED, please! 🎣 Thank you! 🤗
1. BOOKMARK MYETHERWALLET.COM      2. INSTALL EAL or MetaMask or Cryptonite

Those extensions will warn you when you visit a famous fake website and let you know if you are in the right website. If you follow those instructions, you won't get scammed.
