Looks like another ShapeShift/Changelly style website. But I never heard of this website, so why use it?
I would just use an exchange to manually sell my BTG.

You can use this website to see every market that has BTG pairs: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-gold/#markets

That's not a valid address. Are you sure that you aren't missing anything? I also have a Bitkey setup and all of my addresses are valid.

Can you try to go to the Addresses tab (View -> Show Addresses), right click a random address, select "Copy Address" and try moving your coins to it?
13923  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin comeback? on: November 13, 2017, 02:32:47 AM
Don't be dense.
There won't be a come back.
The network is basically dead already.
Hundreds of thousands of transactions are not getting confirmed, people are waiting for their transactions for days without any idea when or IF they are ever going to be confirmed, even though they paid max fees.
Yesterday and today, Bitcoin only had 30% of its original hash from a few days ago due to BCH being more profitable for ~2 days. Today I checked bitaps.com and saw that multiple times we had a difference of 1 hour between each block instead of the normal 10-15 minutes. This plus all the people leaving bitcoin due to the cancellation of segwit2x made that only a few transactions got cleared, resulting in a gigantic accumulation of unconfirmed transactions.

Now that Bitcoin Cash difficulty has rised 400%, miners are coming back to Bitcoin and we are already down +40k unconfirmed transactions in a few hours (from 180k to 140k). I believe that in a couple of days we should be back in the track.

Helix is legit. But IMO their fees could be lower.

They work exactly as described in their website. You send 1 tainted Bitcoin, and receive 1 clean Bitcoin minus fees to a different address, breaking the connection between the first address - and from where did the coins came from - and the final address.



You can try out ChipMixer - which is different from every other mixer in the market. They have a tor version and they don't require you to pay fees. You pay what you want.

You can read how they work in the ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1935098.0

13925  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to transfer btc from one Electrum wallet to another on: November 12, 2017, 04:10:12 PM
In Electrum:

6. From your "old" BTC wallet, send all your BTC to the receive address from the new wallet.


Hi, sorry to revive this slightly old topic, just regarding step 6. is this transfer fee-free?

Many thanks!
It's a normal on-chain transaction after all, so it requires a fee.

Its huge loss for me because I was a regular user of this site.
That's the wrong url.

13927  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Blockchian.info 1000 sat/b fee on: November 12, 2017, 02:49:03 PM
This is happening due to the huge backlog of unconfirmed transactions and hashrate swing between BTC and BCH we are experiencing (hashrate ratio is Bitcoin Cash 70%:30% Bitcoin). There are fewer blocks being found in the BTC chain and more transactions. Too much unconfirmed transactions and full blocks = higher fees.

That's not Mycelium's fault. According to Blockchain, we have almost 170k unconfirmed transactions in the mempool. Meanwhile, the fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 950 satoshis/byte[1] - which is pretty sad. You either need to pay an astronomical fee for fast confirmation or wait some time before seeing your transactions coming through.

The mempool right now:

I doubt that Yobit will help you with their almost inexistent support who only care about profting with shitcoins.
Anyways, if you want to try something, send them a support ticket. They are literally the only ones who can help you.

Go to Settings -> Addresses -> Imported Addresses -> Import Address -> Paste your private key.
13932  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Unconfirmed transactions, heelp!! on: November 11, 2017, 10:28:27 PM
I even tried speeding up the confirmation by doing a "child pays for parent" with a fee of 841/satoshi per byte which is far above the fastest actual fee
according to bitcoinfees.earn.com.
According to them a fee of 571+ sat/byte should give me a processing time of 0-40 minutes, and nothing has happened even after hours Huh.
That's pretty incredible (and sad at the same time). Just a few days ago I had 80 sat/byte transactions get confirmed in a couple of hours without any issue. But today, I sent a 225 sat/byte transactions and it's still unconfirmed even after 7 hours.

Somehow there are more than 135k unconfirmed transactions right now - which is most likely why is this happening. But still, I don't think your 841 sat/byte transaction should take that long to get confirmed.
13933  Economy / Exchanges / Re: I've been an idiot... Sent BTC to BCH Bittrex Account! on: November 11, 2017, 09:19:15 PM
How much was the transaction fee? I doubt that your transaction will never get confirmed in time.

And if it does get confirmed, your only shot will be to contact Bittrex support and pray for them to help you. Some exchanges will ask for a fee to help you since it's "too much work for them". But I don't know if that's the case for Bittrex, and it may not be worth if you lost a low amount of money.
13934  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin Gold on: November 11, 2017, 08:24:33 PM
A week or so ago I had Bitcoin Gold in my Electrum wallet, none there now?
I transferred BTC to Coinbase so did I lose my B Gold?
Were your coins in your wallet in October 24? If yes, then you received Bitcoin Gold and they are still there because the snapshat has already been taken before you moved your coins to Coinbase (You only moved Bitcoin and not Bitcoin Gold).

Actually, you can't even move your Bitcoin Gold yet, since the network isn't live.
13935  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin Gold on: November 11, 2017, 07:11:59 PM
Bitcoin Gold isn't even live yet. But when it is, please do like jackg said and ONLY DOWNLOAD FROM TRUSTED SOURCES. There was a user spamming a fake "Electrum Gold" wallet (electrum-gold dot org <-- SCAM), which contained malwares and other users were spamming a fake website that asks for your private key to "give you your Bitcoin Gold coins". Always research before risking your coins with stuff like this.

Ok... somehow we have almost 120k unconfirmed transactions. I'll be thankfull if you can get my transactions confirmed since I paid a relatively high fee and it's taking too long.

There are decent and good escrow service providers here in Bitcointalk. You just have to pay a small fee for some of them. Not sure if they accept altcoins though, probably only BTC and ETH.

Topic: Bitcointalk Escrows - Trade Safely!: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855778.0
This list is outdated since last year.

That's the right one you should use: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276897.0

You only need to set up your rig to mine to your pool account (just like you would normally do if you keep them in your house). Your IP should be irrelevant.
13939  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum question on: November 11, 2017, 05:09:40 PM
Even if for some reason Electrum ever goes down, you can still use this seed to just import your wallet in a different wallet and recover your funds.
Except for the "minor" issue of Electrum seed mnemonics not being usable in any other wallet that I am aware of due to Electrum's use of non-BIP39 compatible seed mnemonics Roll Eyes

Try and put an Electrum seed into Ian Coleman's BIP39 Mnemonic Code Convertor Tongue

Also, as far as I'm aware, there is no easy way to "convert" an Electrum seed mnemonic into a BIP39 seed mnemonic... although, theoretically, it should be possible.
Fair enought... I missed that point. But I am fairly sure that someone smart enough would come with a tool to allow the sweep of your coins to another address or a way to convert your seed to an acceptable format.

Another point is that Electrum can't really "go down". Even if there is no Electrum servers to connect, you can always use any functional version to create transactions offline, sign, and broadcast to the network in any of the multiple "push transactions website" available (e.g: https://blockchain.info/pushtx). So I would say that you are safe to use Electrum.
13940  Economy / Economics / Re: BTC, ETH, LTC dropping November 2017 on: November 11, 2017, 05:00:29 PM
Bitcoin $6465.98 (-5.34%)
Bitcoin Cash $1252.11 (50.91%)

I imagine that we can correlate the recent Bitcoin Cash jump with the last Bitcoin "crash", right?

IMO looks like there are a lot of money leaving Bitcoin for Bitcoin Cash. I'm not really here to support BCH, but we have more than 115k unconfirmed transactions (and 1095BTC in fees) in the Blockchain (including one I did one hour ago with a fee of 225 sat/byte ($4.18) which is still unconfirmed). This looks scarry, and I can see why people are starting to migrate from BTC to BCH.
