Okay, I really hope you realize the "complaining about the merit system" posts were AFTER I originally posted on this thread. And the "trying to join a sig campaign" post was because I thought I was receiving Full Member to apply for the sig campaign which I already stated early in this conversation. Posts in the off-topic board are from your point of view not worth merit? That makes 0 sense considering the off-topic board is very helpful to a lot of newbies. And my sales threads do not count considering I am SELLING services, not providing help to anyone. So therefore your whole comment is basically pointless.
Let's check your reply again: I've made over 20 posts since the merit update and have received exactly 0 merit from anyone. Go through my posts if you want, they are better than most peoples. Obviously here and there are some that didn't have much thought put into them. But most of them are HQ.
1. The merit system was introduced 24 January. 2. You said you have made 20 posts since the "merit update". Since the merit system addition, you only made 12 posts (which 5 of them are from your Netflix account selling thread). This means that without your sale thread that "does not count considering that you are selling services", you only have made 5 posts + 3 complaining about the merit system. So therefore your whole comment about having received 0 merit for your "20 HQ posts" is basically pointless. Again, where do you deserve any merit? |

From your last 20 posts: 2 in this thread. 1 complaining about the merit system. 3 in the "Off-topic" board. 9 in your "Selling Lifetime Netflix" thread. (lifetime... rly?)2 selling LOL rp cards. 1 trying to join a signature campaign. And 2 in a "Bitcoin Discussion" mega-spam thread. Do you really think those posts deserve any merit? |

So how can I gain 90 merit just to rank up to Full Member..? That means I need 90 unique people to randomly select me out of the thousands of posts they see a day just to rank up? I was under the impression that activity was the only thing that determined rank, which I was thankful for since I could rank up by Feb. 14. Turns out that after going to 126 activity, I get a private message from a user explaining to me that I cannot receive Full Member rank without 100 damn merit. Are you serious? And this was introduced 11 days ago. My fucking luck.
Users can choose to give you more than 1 merit per post. E.g: I have seen posts receiving 5 merits per user. I get that it is to reduce spam and increase the quality of posts, but holy shit how am I going to get 90 people to give me merit when there are literally thousands of people posting every single day? Doesn't matter if I post extremely high quality posts or not.
It does. Do you see this user? He was just a Member when theymos introduced the merit system (he started with 10 merit), and now he already has 373 merits. You can try to do the same  EDIT: Also why is the merit jump so dramatic from Member to Full Member? 60 activity and 10 merit is required for Member rank, but 120 activity and 100 merit is required for Full Member? Activity is increased by 2x, but the merit is increased by 10x? That makes 0 sense.
It takes 120 days to become a Full Member. Are you saying that you are not capable of making 100 high quality posts (or even less if you receive 2~5 merits in some posts) in 4 months? The system was designed to separate spammers from good users. it was not meant to be easy.
what is the meaning of merit guys  .. i'm a newbie here. Thanks Wtf? You're in a thread called "Merit & new rank requirements" and you come here asking "what is merit"? Everything is explained above. Can you even read? Keep up with that shit and you will never get any merit/rank up. |

Is this a bug ? This user has more than enough merits and activity to be a legendary member but his current rank is still hero member. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=558519That user I linked above was just one of them I think there's more of them who have 1000 merits and 770+ activity who aren't legendary. : Legendary: random in the range 775-1030 This user has only 868 activity. He can become a Legendary in the next period or maybe only at the 1022 activity mark. He got 1000 merits by default because theymos thought it was not fair to only give 500 merits to Hero Members who were in the 775-1030 range and could become Legendary at any time. |

You sent BTC using shapeshift, so does that mean even if you didn't send BTC "with" trezor, you can use this technique? The page https://trezor.io/recover-coins/ show only litecoin, BTC, BCH, so that doesn't apply for other altcoins? In most of the altcoins, you can't make this kind of mistake. You can't send Ripple to a Ethereum address for example. The most common case is where a user sent LTC to a BTC address or vice versa. And you can only use the tool if you own the address the coins are stuck. E.g: you withdrawal 10 LTC from your local exchange and sent them to your BTC address by mistake. |

I don't mean to make a new forum (on another domain), but just new software, skin, etc, since bitcointalk.org kinda looks like the 90's.
It would also be an opportunity to write software (add-ons) that would be specifically userfull for a crypto forum.
It's like a politician, that served his term, and a new one is elected...
A new forum software with a better design and new features is already being developed. https://beta.bitcointalk.org/ |

I've checked my wallet on the exchange and all my XRBs are there.
Is that means my wallet is not hacked and i got a chance to withdraw later?
Those are just numbers in a database. IIRC, Raiblocks has less than 4m XRB/Nano in their wallet and they owe their users ~17m. I heard some people saying that MAYBE everyone should receive 20% to 25% of the owned coins back. But it's only a possibility and the risk of not getting anything is high. |

I can't confirm if that's possible since I don't have a Nano S, but can you go to the Addresses tab (View -> Addresses), and see if you can see all your addresses? Then, try to right click and select "Spend from"; If this works, Electrum will put the inputs from the address in the "From" field on the Send tab.

Hi Try Ninja
Thanks for your replies! Very helpful.
What compatible wallet would you recommend for BTCP?
You will probably need to wait for the fork to happens (February 28th). Then, the BTCP team should link a working wallet in their official website[1]. For now, just keep your ZCL/BTC in a safe wallet since you will get 1 BTCP for every BTC/ZCL you have.

|
|
1. Will I be able to receive BTCP coins, if storing ZCL in this wallet? I'm using the wallet in standard mode (not Ledger S Nano, or Multi-Sig mode)
Yes. 2. Will I be able to receive BTCP coins, using the Electrum BTC wallet?
You won't be able to see or send the BTCP, but can be stored in the address. To spend them you will need to import the address private-key in a compatible wallet. |

Bitcointalk is just older but its loosing users
Hmm... After a quick look at the forum stats, I can say that this is incorrect. 63756 new members and 77877533 page views in December 2017 sounds pretty "active" for me. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=statshttps://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/bitcointalk.orgbecasue Theymos bans and censors alot.
Can you provide some sources to corroborate with this statement? wow! BitcoinTalk forum is still stuck at SMF 1.1.9 where 30 more versions have been released? Did theymos eat all the money? No update or work within those years?
Isn't the new forum software being developed? Also, about the outdated SMF version: Theymos has modded this forum considerably. That's why it's such an old version of SMF - he can't upgrade it anymore.

Electrum is a good choice as it has segwit wallet too and I've seen people here in the forum does have that "bc" address and it came from electrum if I'm correct. But for now, I'll remain with blockchain.info as I like the adjustment with the fees which is really convenient to me.
This doesn't make sense. You can also adjust your fees in Electrum, but if you choose a Segwit address, you will pay 50% less in fees. I really don't see any advantage on using Blockchain's wallet. You can even choose a wallet with addresses starting with a "3" rather than the "bc1" format for better compatibility. |

I just saw that you said you are using "Electrum 3.0.5". There is no Electrum Verge 3.0.5, so you are probably using the Electrum for Bitcoin. The latest Verge version is 2.4.1; Go to the website and download the right version.

If I've lost the seed is there anyway to get Electrum to generate the 2fa code again? Sending the coins out of the wallet isn't an option as I don't have the password - but am looking at getting it back. Thing I'm most concerned about at the moment is losing my phone/having it stolen and then have no hope of getting the coins back as I don't have access to the 2fa code.
The seed will give you the 2 private-keys from your wallet of 2-of-3 scheme. This means that you can use the seed to "disable" the 2FA and spend without the 2FA code. But you can't generate the code from the seed. If you lost the seed, the only thing you can do is send all your coins to a new wallet, since losing the phone means your coins are gone. But without the password, it shouldn't be possible without the seed to restore the wallet. |

i think he/she misunderstanding about that creating account using VPN
@Tambu it was not ban, but if you creating account with VPN ( on evil ip ) you are unable to post
and you need to pay a little bitcoin to able posting.
You also can create an account with Proxy/VPN/Tor. It's not against the rules. Of course, if you are lucky enough (happens frequently with Tor), the IP will be blacklisted. But this only happens when you are creating a new account under the blacklisted IP. After paying the fee and registering (or just logging in with your existent account), you can login to the account normally. |

Apparently it's only Nano that's missing. Hopefully they should give you all your other coins back, unless they decide to socialise the losses or exit scam.
-snip-
Francesco (owner of BitGrail) said that only Nano was stolen and every other coin is safe. All coins except nano are safe https://twitter.com/bomberfrancy/status/962187877747748864
@OP: If your '50% crypto' consists mainly of Nano, your coins are gone as they got hacked and said that the only solution is a hard fork. If you hold other coins, you may be able to recover them. Contact suport and wait. It's probably going to take a LOT of time until they answer you (if they do), but there is still hope. |

Using Proxy, VPN I think is not allowed you will get ban if you open your account in VPN and proxy.
Wut? Where did you hear that? Using a Proxy/VPN/Tor is completely allowed. Don't you think that even Satoshi itself must have used Tor while he was around? |

If your wallet doesn't support the new payment protocol from Bitpay, you can get the address and pay manually by doing this: 1. Go to the 'Copy' tab; 2. Copy the link (which looks like this: bitcoin:?r=https://bitpay.com/i/ XXXXXXXXXXXXX); 3. Get the invoice ID, which is the part that I marked bold (everything after bitpay.com/i/)'; 4. Go to https://bitpay.com/invoice-noscript?id=YOUR-INVOICE-IDYou should see the address and amount to send. Then, just make the payment. |

are the Coinomi phrases stored on thier server?
No. Your private-keys are generated based on your seed - which only you have. Nothing is ever sent to a server. A deterministic wallet is a system of deriving keys from a single starting point known as a seed. The seed allows a user to easily back up and restore a wallet without needing any other information and can in some cases allow the creation of public addresses without the knowledge of the private key. More: Coinomi is a Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet. What excactly does that mean? |
