The site looks promising to me.
Simple as alike.
- Working perfect
- The response is fast.
I am confused at one point. In your fee section, you have typed that your min commission is 0.5% right. In the next table, you have written that for 1-4 bitcoin it's 0.45 why? But at the same time, it is 0.5% in for all. Correct me if I get it wrong.
Also when
I believe it's something like a "loyalty system". From the fee section: "Remember, when you use BitWhisk regularly with the same code you get a discount. More you mix less you pay." So, if you mix 3 BTC, you pay a commission of 0.45%. If you keep mixing with the same code and get to 6 mixed BTC, you only pay 0.40%, etc... This also makes me wonder, how is this code "info" stored? How do you link multiple orders to one user to know if he is a loyal costumer?
P.s: I'm here if you still need someone to try the mixing with multiple addresses/bigger delays  |

I've made a "recieve" transaction on my offline default wallet on Electrum, but it has been on "pending" status for more than a week now.
What exactly do you mean by "I've made a "receive" transaction"?  Do you mean you gave your wallet address to someone and they sent you bitcoins? If so, who did you buy these coins from? Did they provide you with a transaction ID? If so, have you checked this transaction ID on a blockexplorer like blockchain.info? Also, if your wallet is "offline", it won't show the transaction history correctly as it can't sync... or do you mean you're looking at the online watching only version of your wallet and it says "pending"? I will risk and say that he's talking about the "payment requests" that can be done with Electrum.  Take a look at the "Requests" history at the bottom. It's showing my "Testing 1" payment request as Pending because I have not received the coins. |

I think it depends on BTC price. Last November-January BTC price was low so fees was high for all transations.
If you are talking about USD, yes. I believe satoshis/byte is a better option. Remember that we are paying in BTC (a currency). On the other hand how big amount you are sending one account to another account is one of the main factor of fees.
It's not. The amount doesn't matter. What matters is the size of the transaction (i.e more inputs/outputs). The bigger the transaction (size), the bigger is the amount of satoshis that we "need" to pay in fees (remember the sat/byte measure I talked above?)
Btw, my last transaction costed 0.000003 BTC (1.382 sat/byte) in fees and it got confirmed in 2 blocks. That's $0,03  |

My stance is merit may be hard to attain.. but activity is the hardcap on difficulty here and it should be removed.. I do think merit indicates whether a user is quality or not without time being an inhibiting factor but having the Activity part still in I think is ridiculous.. What if someone were to get 750 merit in the course of 6 months.. would it really make much sense to make this person wait another 18 months to get the rank? I personally find this to be the biggest flaw in the system although most want to focus on what they don't like about merits. Still though, trying to make the system work according the rules set forth.. its just my opinion and won't let it interfere with trying to rank up over time.
Well, activity is meant to work like this. When it got introduced, there was not many bounty/signature spammers like we have today. So taking some time in the forum was everything you needed to do. Merit was only added because the spam to rank up and join a bounty became unbearable and it started to hurt the forum. IMO, taking time to rank up (which was the original idea) and needing to make QUALITY posts and not just spam is the perfect combination for the new system. It also helps preventing users from abusing the system by meriting his main account with alts to rank up in just 1 day. |

To the nano ledger users, i have heard cases where the nano ledger s is very confusing to use and heard people say they made mistake and you could easily make a mistake of sending bch to btc wallet and vice versa and stuff like that. Is that true or false?
It's true Rewording after reading HCP's post: It's true that some users may think it's confusing and will end up sending coins to the wrong address (not Ledger's fault). But I'm not sure if Nano S already supports the new cashaddr format for Bitcoin Cash which will make things easier. Normally, both BTC and BCH will have the same valid addresses in both chains. So, my address 1NinjabXd5znM5zgTcmxDVzH4w3nbaY16L is valid for both chains and can store BTC and BCH. This means that you can send BTC/BCH to the opposite chain by mistake (BTC to BCH or vice-versa); (Btw, If you do that but you own the address - which is the case with the Ledger Nano -, you can recover it.) To avoid this kind of mistakes, BCH adopted a new format that looks like this (which like I said above, is or will be supported by Nano): bitcoincash:qrhyrhms7kplesyktkfv2ea53x2dlacuuuxna40hym |

I'm always trying to do that. But finding high quality posts among Newbies is a hard task.
Have you ever thought that most users will only merit high ranks because they tend to make good posts and that has nothing to do with the user's rank? I personally never look at the rank before deciding whether someone deserves merit or not. However, I still have plent of sMerit to give because I try to hold some for the lower ranks and I can't find any. If I decided to merit every high quality post, I would have none by now because 95% of all good posts are made by Legendary/Hero users.
Talking is easy, but do you really deserve any merit? Post here/PM me any of your HQ posts (if you have any) and if you deserve, I will merit you.

As title says I am in need of some advice, I have around 900usd in bittrex that I would like to withdraw, but I do not want to send them my personal information for verification. I am willing to pay for assistance in this matter except obvious scams like "give me the account details I will verify and send you 90% etc." Any and all help will be appreciated
What kind of help you do need? You need to verify your account or you won't be able to withdraw. You could ask someone on your family to verify the account with his ID for you. Other than that, I don't think there is anything you can do. |

I assume that because my BTC is already in my Ledger Nano S (BTC wallet) that using this risky Electron wallet is not the same security risk as when someone splits their BTC from the Electrum wallet?
Yeah. It should be safer because even if a fake wallet steals your private-keys, there are no Bitcoins in there anymore. So you are only risking your BCH. But you can *kinda* trust Electron Cash  (at least for now) |

Ok I understand. I do have the wallet backed up on a USB drive. But the backup was made when I had BTC in it. I since sent my BTC to my Ledger Nano S from my wallet that was on my PC.
So what will happen when I go to my old backup Electrum file (from my USB drive) that was made when I did have my BTC in it?
Nothing will happen. Like I said above, you backup once and the file will be the same forever. There is no such thing as "old backup" with Electrum. Your coins are not stored in the file. You don't have any BTC but the BCH is still there in the blockchain, waiting to be spent. Do like I said and you will see your BCH balance. |

OK thanks but I am a little confused. What part of my back up am I supposed to use? The wallet file or the program shell?
The program shell I believe can only be re-installed from a download (even if I have a copy on my backup USB drive) and if that's the case it would be a fresh install and would not have my private keys
What exactly did you backed up? Electron Cash looks exactly like Electrum. If what you backed up was the wallet file, just select it in Electon Cash like you always did with Electrum when opening your wallet.  |

Hey HCP. So just to make sure, electrum counts right? Just want to make sure before i order it.
Yes... I transferred my BTC from my Electrum wallet to my Ledger Nano S but I then permanently deleted my Electrum wallet from my PC because I switched PC's for (security purposes).
I do have backups of my Electrum wallet (if that helps) but these were made before I moved my BTC to my Ledger Nano S.
Can I gain access to the required private keys on my PC or from my Electrum backup? In order to finish claiming my BCH on Ledger Nano S. Any help is appreciated!
That's good enough. Your Electrum wallet/seed never changes. It doesn't matter if you moved the funds or made any new transactions. Backup once and you are done! Just download Electron Cash[1] and open your Electrum wallet file with it. Then, send your BCH to your Nano S.

LISTEN UP EVERYBODY!
This question already has been answered MULTIPLE TIMES. Do we really need 3 pages of Newbies repeating the same thing over and over again with a broken english?
"They don't expire"
"Don't worrt they don't do such"
"I do not believe bitcoin addresses expire"
JUST STOP! You will not get any merit with this bullshit anyways. Stop wasting server resources.

I can't find the official documentation regarding signing arbitrary messages with these addresses. Can anyone enlighten me?
Did electrum implement its own or an unofficial standard? Will this be supported by Core?
That's all I could find with my limited knowledge: My doubt, regarding signing in segwit address is if this is a "bug" and will soon be corrected, or is it an abandoned feature?
It is neither a bug nor an abandoned feature. It is just that we are still working on creating a more generalized signing scheme that lets people sign with things like P2SH addresses (e.g. sign with a multisig address). There is simply no standard yet for signing with such scripts or with Segwit. Note that you don't actually sign with an address. You sign with a public-private keypair and your wallet interprets it as an address. Your wallet could just as easily interpret it as a segwit address. We are working on creating something that actually specifies the address type, and more generally, allows signing with scripts. |

Will this account (and card) be available worldwide? Or only to EU/German citizens? |

My understanding is that if I have my BTC in an Electrum wallet, I will be able to collect BTCP.
That's right. For every BTC you have, you will receive 1 BTCP. When the network is live, you can open your Electrum BTC wallet into the Electrum version for BTCP and spend your coins. Is the Bitcoin Electrum wallet different?
Yes. You can only see and spend the coins if you are in the right version. Can I have both Electrum wallets simultaneously?
Yes. |

That's the website: https://localbitcoins.net/Why did he sent you this screenshot? The site is legit, but the screenshot may be fake. If he is trying to sell you BTC and claimed to have this amount, he might be trying to scam you with a fake screenshot. Are you from Brazil? (the picture is in Portuguese). You can PM me anytime if you need some help. |

They can't even post a normal shared link that you must click to open/view?
They can post the link, but not "attach" the image in the thread. |

I'm signing my transactions offline, doing cold storage.
But I'm wondering how malware on an online computer could steel private keys from an Electrum hot wallet that is encrypted and password protected.
There are many possible ways. 1. Get your wallet file and password (with a keylogger). 2. Install a fake Electrum in your computer. 3. Change the address you have in your clipboard to his own. So if you don't pay attention, you can end up sending the coins to the hacker's address. etc... |

I have a suggestion: Show how much is your address worth by calculating each coin price. Example: If you have 1 BTC ($9.435,82) and 1 BCH ($1.148,49), show that your wallet is worth $10.584,31. you should add some related links in front of each check. for example in front of BCH add the link to its website or bitcointalk announcement topic or both and also the explorer you used to fetch the balance (if you are using a explorer, if not explain how you are doing it).
This already happens if you register and add your address (there is a link to each coin's block explorer page). It shouldn't be hard to add that to the normal search page. |
