Can we pay with ETH instead? BTC is too slow and fees are 2 high.
You can't. Not sure if theymos would open an exception to manually accept other coins, but I don't think he would. But regardless, fees are super low right now. I'm pretty sure you can get your transaction in the next block with a fee of 5-10 sat/byte. That's ~$0,07 with a legacy address, 1 input and 1 output. Just take a look at the mempool: https://dedi.jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#24h |

OP is asking for a way to get his wallet.aes.json file. This post has nothing to do with that. "How can I use the blockchain.info 'wallet.aes.json' file to get my funds into my local wallet?" < the user already has his wallet.aes.json file and only wants to decrypt it, which is the easy part. |

what is merit ? is it useful ? and how i can get some of them  Depends. Are you here to rank up and join a shitcoin bounty to earn money? If you are, merit is the most useful thing of this forum. TLDR: Now you need merit to rank up. For example, if one day you want to become a Sr. Member, you will need to get 250 merits. You can get them by making high quality posts and getting merited by other users. This means that if you are a spammer, you won't get any and will be stuck in your current rank. Better explanation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350u can acquired your merit by just posting every 30 mins.thats what i have to do acquire merits
 I would demerit you if I could |

This user: desklampDid you forget to include the source for those aswell?  A “wallet” is basically the Bitcoin equivalent of a bank account. It allows you to receive bitcoins, store them, and then send them to others. There are two main types of wallets. A hot wallet is one that you install on your own computer or mobile device. You are in complete control over the security of your coins, but since they are on a device that is connected to the internet they are less secure. The second type of wallet is a hardware wallet. They maintain high levels of security to protect your coins by storing your coins offline. Offline storage keeps your coins and ata out of reach from hackers.
Original: https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/wallets/set-up/It seems that nearly every day there’s another report of a major hacking. And as the number of hacks increase, consumer desires for security increase as well. Blockchain is the model of internet security, that doesn’t produce a fully secure system for users. There are a number of important safety and security practices that can help to protect your private keys and therefore protect your funds.
first it is wise to find a wallet with security measures beyond the normal wallet providers. Some wallets are now using encryption to protect the private keys. Users should always have at least two digital wallets. One wallet should be used for trading and transactional purposes, and the other wallet should be used to store savings and be kept in a secure location. This type of wallet must be a cold storage wallet. In anyway, a backup of the private keys have to be stored safely offline. This two safety tips can help you to avoid hacking your wallet.

But anyone knows what is the reason of banning crypto currency ads from facebook?Because I remember an article by the owner of facebook few weeks before said that they are going to create a new crypto currency for facebook.
They don't want their platform to get filled with all the new scam ICO's that are launching everyday. There is a big difference between having interest in the technology and supporting shady cryptocurrencies and projects. “Facebook is banning all ads that promote cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, in an effort to prevent people from advertising what the company is calling 'financial products and services frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices.” https://www.recode.net/2018/1/30/16950926/facebook-mark-zuckerberg-bans-crypto-advertising-bitcoin-james-altucher |

AFAIK Facebook is only banning paid ads promoting cryptocurrencies, and not posts made by their users. So you can't pay Facebook to display those "promoted" ads about ICO or cryptocurrencies but still can make posts or share links/posts regarding ICO's and cryptocurrencies (which is what most campaigns do - e.g: share this post/make a post promoting MyShitICO.com and get 10 tokens).
Btw, this shouldn't be in the Services board.

Given all the preset block time, could some one kindly advise how crypto exchanges go about handling the instant transfer of crypto pair between buyers and sellers? Do the trades and the change in cryptos as a result of the trades just resides on database server within the centralize exchanges?
This one should be pretty obvious. Those are off-chain transactions like johnn said above. You deposit your coins into the exchange and they set your account balance (in the database) to the equivalent amount. When you sell your coins, there is no on-chain transaction. They simple change a few values in their database (-BTC balance and +USD balance). How does exchange go about handling withdraw from clients? Do they have hot wallet to keep a float to allow for instant withdrawal when requested? If that's the case, how can they ensure they don't over/underestimate the required float?
Usually they have a small amount in their hot wallet so they can handle daily withdrawals and the majority of the funds in a cold wallet. If they need more, they can simple fund more coins in the hot wallet. E.g: Poloniex keeps over 90 of its customers funds in cold storage[1]

I'm 100% certain it isn't electrum as it's from 2011 and electrum didn't come until about 2015...
It has to be bitcoin core, I don't think there were many other clients at this point...
That's not true. Electrum was created in 2011. From Electrum's about page[1]: "Electrum was created by Thomas Voegtlin in November 2011."

I just opened my Electrum wallet and they are suggesting me a fee of 5 sat/byte for a confirmation within 25 blocks. A few seconds later, I open it again and the suggested fee goes up to 140 sat/byte (within 25 blocks). Why does this happens? Edit: Looks like some Electrum servers are suggesting 140 sat/byte and others 5 sat/byte. Why is this server based? And why is the difference so big? IMO they should do something similar to what Coinb.in does here[1] (1 sat/byte right now). So far fees have been pretty accurate and cheap if compared to other softwares like Core and Electrum.

Isn't Ledger safe against tampering? That's what I found on Ledger's website[1]: "There is absolutely no way that an attacker could replace the firmware and make it pass attestation, without knowing the Ledger private key."
About the post linked above, I see that there was nothing wrong with the Nano S device bought from the third-party. The only issue was that the user used a pre-generated seed that came with the device to restore a compromised wallet. It's like creating a website that provides real binaries from the Electrum website but with this kind of warning: "When creating your wallet, select 'I already have a seed' and write '<insert hacker seed here>' to generate a safe wallet".

So what will happen if all member prefer to keep their smerit?
Nothing. "There is no point in hoarding sMerit; keeping it yourself does not benefit you, and we reserve the right to decay unused sMerit in the future." Misclicked and sent merit to the wrong post. fak |

In this case only your recovery phrase can help you, try to go here https://blockchain.info/wallet/#/help and use the forgot password but I'm afraid if it will work since you have 17 word seed instead of 12. Read the OP. 1. The page you linked only works with a 12 words backup. He said that he has 17 words, so he *probably* needs to use the page I linked above. 2. He already has his password and that's not the issue...? I have wallet identifier, password and 17 words passphrase ...
