141  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Unstoppable wallet {User experiences} on: April 04, 2024, 12:05:44 AM
Since my initial installation, BNB on the BEP2 network has never synchronized properly for me. However, there haven't been any issues with BEP20. Is this really a bug in the application, or is it just me experiencing this?

I am facing a strange issue now on my unstoppable wallet and it is annoying and frustrating above all, I am not sure what to do in this case  Huh

While my Bep20 tokens and tokens on other chains are syncing properly, but all of my Ethereum and Erc20 tokens aren't syncing at all in all the wallets in Unstoppable. I have tried to keep the wallet open thinking it may take longer to sync, but of no use.



I can't move/send my funds to any other wallet due to this syncing problem and i am really worried.
If anyone have some solution on how to fix this and why it happened in the first place ?  

I checked my version of the app and it is 0.37.5

Today’s match was won by Ireland A and Nepal A team lost the match. I think the turning point of the game for the Nepal A team was when Dev Khanal was out because he was the only player who started well but later he lost his wicket then the team came under pressure because their best player was out so what will they do and these thoughts became the reason of their lose.

Afterwards Arjun Kumal, Bhim Sharki, and after him the captain Binod Bhandari also lost his wicket, but after some time Basir Ahamad also out due to pressure after playing some good cricket. That match was such an amazing match.




I think the biggest reason behind the winning of the Ireland A team is actually that the Ireland A team knew how to put pressure as you can see, they put pressurized on the whole Nepal A team.

Whenever the batsmen played some more time then the bowlers of Ireland A team gave a ball inside, and whenever it went for dot, they started to call the umpire it was out, this is their tactic of putting pressure and for this, they had to good start that they have been doing in this match. Ireland A team is the weakest team but in the mind games, they are number one. By the way, that was too easy way to put pressure on every team but the Nepal A team was too weak which caused this result.
143  Bitcoin / Electrum / Securing Electrum seed phrases though Seed Extension on: April 03, 2024, 06:55:08 AM
One of my friends is very sensitive about seed phrases lost. He does not have a hardware wallet and is storing his Bitcoin on an Electrum wallet on cold storage (that never connects to the internet).
However, the thing is that he does not want to keep the seed phrases on a piece of paper (physically) as he thinks that it can be stolen or theft or even lost and he may lose all of his bitcoins.

So what is doing now that he has created a new wallet with seed extension. He has created four or five different wallets (to divide his funds in different wallets), each of them with the same seed extension, the words which he memorizes and can never forget.



Now he keeps the original electrum seeds on a piece of paper as well as he is storing it online on his Gmail. He is of the point of view that now he is 100% secure as he cannot lose the seed phrase as it is stored both physically and electronically. Secondly, if someone hacks his seed phrases both physically or online, that is of no use because he has seed extensions to the seed phrases which only he knows about.

Given these conditions, is he doing it the right and secure way?

Recently I came to know about the Bitget Web3.0 wallet (https://web3.bitget.com/en) as they are offering some tasks like depositing and swapping on their platform that will earn us their free airdrop of their native token BWB.
Sounds like an airdrop Trust Wallet had a few years ago of TWT. It's a marketing stunt to get more downloads and users, you can't completely trust close sourced wallets. Get the airdrop and move your funds out.

I have not used this wallet before, but i decided to check a few things about it online, though there are limited articles about the wallet, but i read that it has an open source code:
Quote
It’s also worth noting that Bitget Wallet uses open-source code so anyone can check the code and make sure everything is legit
You can't rely on random online articles, most of them carry false information, mate. You have to manually look for the source code, and currently it's private or not available for the public.

Check their GitHub. The profile is deleted https://github.com/bitkeepcom

Seems like the Bitget wallet is not an open source so i would not risk much to move funds to the closed source Bitget wallet. It is always good to first understand the risk and reward before participating in any airdrop and that was the reason I was concerned about it whether it is open source.

Yes, the closed source wallet can keep on running for years and years like a Trust wallet but least they speak the truth that "They are closed Source".
Bitget wallets claim to be open source but in fact it is closed source, seems like a big red flag to me.
Being closed source may be acceptable but being dishonest is not tolerable . Angry

In one hour, the world will be back to normal. Going to miss these loud mouth posters. Luckily Theymos didn’t mess with this.

The fun only lasts for a day and then its back to normal business. Though everyone keep remembering it for the next few days
It's strange that Theymos comes up with new ideas every year and no one in their wildest of thinking can guess it in advance. He surely has a creative mind and a genius Smiley

Also now in the IPL matches, he is again doing this, especially with Rohit Sharma. I am sure that he is making fun of him because of no reason, he moved to him in every part of the ground in not only 1st match but in the all matches, he did this with Rohit Sharma. First, he told him to come at Slip then the batsmen hit on the leg side then he told him to go there and the next bowler batsmen hit on off side then he said again to him go there. Such things will never help a team's cause.

Yes, I have seen this on Live TV and he is calling him in every over, in every ball and in every second, but the good is that he is not doing captaincy at the World Cup because if he did this in IPL so what will he did in World Cup.

Also, I think he should have to play in a good mood because if he plays like this then that thing will happen which should mean later Rohit will also do captaincy and there can be an element of revenge. Also, he will play under Rohit's Captaincy so before having any fun with him should have to realize this thing.

This is a great achievement for the Oman team.  Their batsmen set a target of 137 in 20 overs.  And it wasn't not such a difficult target.  But the Namibian batsmen could not meet this target and would lose the match.  Namibia batsmen will lose the match by 6 runs.  If they had speeded up a little earlier they could have won the match.  My congratulations to the Oman team for the win and may they continue to play like this and win matches.

Oman won a match and also Namibia won a match, but this is a series of 5 T20 matches, the team who will win the next match comes in a lead, and then if Oman wins the next match then they had such a great lead that can be the cause of their victory of the series. Oman and Namibia both are neck to neck so now I think the team who will get lead then that team should win the series too.

This series is going in a very good way and fair but now just we are in the wait of the winner, I hope that Oman will win this match because when they lose the first match by Namibia then Namibia show them aggression.

The Mumbai Indians team is not playing well and now their standard also be finished because their whole team fought with all of each other. It is the team of Mukesh Ambani and after seeing HARDIK Pandya's captaincy Ambani also takes action on it but in this IPL, I think they will lose all the matches.

Yesterday no Rohit Sharma, no Pandya, and everyone knows that Mumbai Indians have lost it. Trent Boult did a hat trick yesterday and it left no hope for the Mumbai Indians.

This is the team that hit too many small targets in the history of IPL 17. I think after some years, the all players of Mumbai Indians will be separated and in the upcoming 5 years you will see no star in this team will remain even I think Pandya will be left this, or maybe not because when he left it then no team want to see him in their own team while if Sharma didn’t want to play from Mumbai Indians then all franchise will be interested to buy him.

Oman vs Namibia 2nd T20

Yesterday the 1st match of T20 series between Oman and Namibia took place where Namibia won. Oman scored 109 yesterday, Namibia won by 4 wickets in 18.4 overs. The second match of the series will be held today. Namibia lead 1-0 after winning the 1st match so Oman needs to win to level the series 1-1 today. I predict Namibia will win today too. Because Namibia's batting and bowling line is better than Oman. Namibia is leading in the T20 format. However, Oman won the toss and elected to bat. Let's see how many runs Target Oman can give.
The match between Oman and Namibia has started and Oman won the toss and decided to bat first. Oman current score is 58 runs in loss of just 1 wickets. Kashyap Prajapati is out after scoring 20 runs from 22 balls. Now Athavale is playing at 21 and A. Ilyas is playing at 13 runs not both players looking good and this partnership is very important for Oman if they score a big total for Namibia.

Oman won the toss and decided to bat first, and it seemed a good target for the Oman Cricket team. They were playing with a run rate of 6.25 runs which is average but good for Namibia and now we are expecting a good type of bowling from them that I hope they will do it.

They played very well but, in the end, their run rate decreased but overall they made a very good target which may have given them the confidence to win this match because of course, they didn’t want to see themselves as losers. This is a time when the whole game is dependent on the bowlers of Oman because if they play well then we can see them as winners of today’s match and they should have to win it for a better record.

I think that the team of Oman should have made more runs as 137 was never going to be a safe score, however good luck to them as Namibia weren't able to chase it. They have been tried when their good batsmen like Pratik Athavale and Kashyap Prajapati were playing in such a good type of performance so why, do they have the hunger and greed to play too fast?

That became harmful for them. If they play as they play, they can be making more runs. Also, I would like to talk about a player who can play well but he also has a victim of the same thing whose name is Rafiullah. He is such a good player but why he has to play fast means hitting four in every three balls then it will be great if they will play for more time  Huh
Nevertheless, they have won the match and this is what matters in the end.
150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: April 01, 2024, 04:17:47 PM
In all probability, Lankans will declare their innings and ask Bangladeshis to bat from the first over tomorrow. I was a bit surprised with the performance from medium pacer Hasan Mahmud. He picked up 4 crucial wickets for Bangladesh. The pitch at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram was supposed to be spin-friendly. But so far the pacers have picked up majority of the wickets - Hasan Mahmud for Bangladesh, and then Lahiru Kumara/Vishwa Fernando/Asitha Fernando for the visitors.

SL should have gone for follow on option but they didn't took that option. Not good batting from SL in second innings but it doesn't matter as they have scored enough runs in first innings. It's first time in this test series that Dhananjaya de Silva and Kamindu Mendis were not able to score fifty, in past three innings they both were too good for Bangladeshi bowlers to handle. Tomorrow hopefully SL will be bowled out in first session and then Bangladesh have a huge target to chase. 

Once again Bangladesh got a chance to tie the match as you can see SriLankan batsmen came again to bat which was good for Bangladesh because they could draw the match in the second innings when they came to bat.

Now, their bowlers should not have to pick wickets because if they are starting to pick wickets then the SriLanka captain will declare the innings, and again Bangladesh team has the chance to lose. Bangladesh's team has an advantage in that they will play by wasting and try to waste 90 overs per day. This is the best advice for the Bangladeshi team, if they do this then something can be happen good for them. This is sarcasm of course  Sad

By the way, the more merits you had before 1st April, it would need harder work to be in the negative and then getting -354883 is something extraordinary.

Sri Lanka right on top after picking 5 wickets this morning. Bangladesh still trail by 400 runs and follow on seems inevitable now. Wickets start falling once Zakir Hasan got out this morning and no resistance from any Bangladeshi batsmen so far. Zakir Hasan is the top scorer from Bangladesh side so far with 54 runs. There were lots of expectation from Shakib but he failed to deliver in batting and got out on just 15. Bangladesh need to score 331 runs to avoid follow on which seems very much impossible. 

Today is the third day of the test match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh which you can say clearly that it will be won by Sri Lankans in just after some time.

Firstly, Sri Lankan batsmen played so awesome which has no comparison and then how their bowlers take wickets. After looking at this type of bowling, you hardly believe in your eyes, that this is a team of Bangladesh with this type of players.  Now, Sri Lanka came again to batting but this time, I don’t think they will make many runs because they lost their six wickets. The Sri Lankan team on its peak but not in the 2nd innings batting.

Lucknow Super Giants versus Punjab Kings

It is 11 match in indian premier league and this match between Lucknow super giant and Punjab king. Lucknow won the toss and elected batting. Lucknow batsman makes 199 run in 20 over and 8 outs. This is the target for Punjab king batsman. This is the good and hard target for Punjab king batsman. Lucknow batsman are working hard and struggle and make run and gave hard target. Punjab king bowler could not bowling very well and get hard target. Punjab king batsman makes 5 runs in 1 over and Lucknow bowler no any wicket against Punjab king batsman. Now let's see Punjab king batsman can complete this target or not. Punjab King's batsmen need 195 runs off 114 balls to win the match.  I think so.  That they will lose today's match
Punjab kings current score is 139 runs in a loss of 3 wickets while chasing down a target of 200 runs. Punjab Kings needed 61 runs from 26 balls to win this match against Lucknow super giant. Shakar Dhawan is playing at 70 runs Not out, if they play more aggressively than Punjab Kings have a chance to win the match in this situation. Mayank Yadav bowling performance is outstanding All three wickets picked by Yadav just giving 26 runs.

In the current match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans at Ahmedabad, it seems that Gujarat Titans will easily win this match as they now need only run a ball for last 3 overs and it is an easy target when you have 8 wickets in hand.

Sai Sudharsan , Shubman Gill and David Miller, in fact every batsman played their part and made sure they reached the target without panic and losing wickets. Earlier Sunrisers Hyderabad batting was not up to the mark but still they were able to stretch the score to 160+. This was never going to be defendable without taking early wickets and Gujarat Titans didn't let it happen.

Gujarat Titans are at number 8 of the points table and this was the much needed win for them in the context of this IPL. Although this is just the 12th match of the IPL, but every point counts. The next match today will be played between Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals and it will be another entertaining game of cricket.

Stumbled across this old thread and just wanted to say Wow- because as of the Bitcoin price today ($16,000+), the 200 BTC bounty paid for this tattoo is now worth more than $3.2 Million USD! I sure hope OP & his wife held some of that to reap the rewards of long-term appreciation. And to the people making fun of her for getting a BTC tattoo for 200 Bitcoins- your comments certainly didn't age well!  Smiley

I just came across this thread through this post and was amazed to find out how much bitcoins were given for this bitcoin's tattoo contest.  Smiley This was back in 2011 when most of us had no idea about bitcoin.  Sad

I tried to open the links in the OP post but none of the the images or video (YouTube) links are working. So we won't be able to know how exactly were the first Bitcoin tatooo looked like  Tongue

I had thought the BTC price action was breaking out but my theory now is it needs a working week, full open markets and a competitive bid for price to break this range.  Seems to be confined, to linger near 70k and we end the month around the end of the week also with holidays in play so I see no hope of resolution especially in this time period.   That was foreseeable, all these are calendar events I guess its worth planning and looking ahead end of April also etc.

Today is the month closing for bitcoin and it is indeed a very important day for those who have placed the bet on March Price predictions at freebitco.

Like i mentioned in my earlier post that most people are betting in the range above 70K and the price of Bitcoin at the moment is around 70298$. Those who have placed this bet in this range will be willing for bitcoin to close the month above 70K. It is really a tension and suspense time as the bitcoin price can anytime move 300$ down and they will lose the bet. This is going to be too close.  Smiley

In 1 st test game between Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka team, this game was won by Sri Lanka team and in this game, Sri Lanka batting lineup was brilliant and most players showed very outstanding struggle and woj this game by big margin of runs. Today 2 nd test game,  one day was ended and Sri Lanka team scored 314 runs in 90 overs and losing 4 wickets and their 1 st Inning is still continuing. N.Madushka scored 57 runs with dismissed in 105 balls, D.Karunaratne made 86 runs in 129 balls. D.de Silva and D.Chandimal  both are currently batting in pitch, D.de Silva batsman effort was impressive in 1 st test game. I believe that this game also won by Sri Lanka team and Sri Lanka team is much stronger than Bangladesh team.

I think this is a condition where the team of Bangladesh should have to take a new step and according to the current situation, we are not seeing that they can chase the target because to chase 434 runs is not a cup of tea.

Now, they have to take a step on the way where they can draw the match. If the Sri Lankan team wins this match, then Bangladesh will be whitewashed, but if they draw the match, in this condition, the Sri Lanka team also win the series but at least any respect will be left for the Bangladesh team. I think it is the best thing for Bangladesh to draw the match.

Bangladesh 'pay the price' for multiple dropped catches as Sri Lanka take control



I don’t agree with you on some points as you said Bangladesh has to tie the match but I think first of all they have to try their opening batsmen to play with confidence and make a good start.

If those can’t be open like Sri Lanka and they judge that they cannot chase it then this condition will be good for thinking defensive when some batsmen fail to play well. I am trying to say they have to fight until the last ball and when they think or judge that they are not able to chase then they have to take a step where the match can be drawn.

First of all, they have to use their resources on how to win the match. If a team is being defensive right from the beginning, they will usually lose the match even before the start of the match. No matter how weak is the team, it is the body language that matters in the end.
157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is playing poker online better than offline? on: March 31, 2024, 04:37:01 AM
if you are a poker player of both then surely you will choose Offline because the feeling and the excitement is there reading each opponent about their behavior an reactions but if you wanted to be fooled by online operators then you will be forever in that positions.
personally I hate online gambling because we cannot see our opponents faces to read whats on their mind.

I think both online and offline gambling is fun and one cannot deny that there are a lot of people who prefer online gambling over offline gambling and the same goes for Poker too. If all depends upon one interest.

Also sometimes we have no one around us to whom we can take ourselves to play physical poker and sometimes you won't find time to visit a poker club to pay with an unknown individual. In these cases. Online poker comes in handy when you can enjoy it online and use the chat feature on the sites that enable you to chat with the opponent, though still, his face won't be visible.
158  Economy / Speculation / Re: VanEck thinks Ether ETF would be even bigger than Bitcoin ETF on: March 30, 2024, 08:46:36 PM
I think more people would be willing to invest in the ETH etf than BTC because they know that bitcoins market cap is already high and there is less room for growth compared to say ETH.

It’s possible for BTC to reach $100K which would be almost double from the day the etfs launched. But something like ETH which has a smaller market cap and decreasing supply, can easily triple or quadruple from here, and this is why many smaller retail investors might want to invest in it instead.

In terms of price, ETH looks more promising to the investors as a 10x increase in price would take bitcoin to around 35000$ which is very much possible in the next few years. Compare this to a 10x increase in bitcoin, which would take it to 700,000$ and that does not seem to be happening anytime soon.

But this is limited to the price speculation only. In terms of technology and security, it is worth saving your investment in bitcoin and not in Ethereum or any other cryptocurrency.
159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: March 30, 2024, 08:10:06 PM
Poor Bangladesh lost a good toss here and now paying the price, atm it looks like a belter of a pitch and for Bongs it'll be a long tiring day at work, possibly 5 full sessions of hard work.

Shakib has yet to bowl long spells, maybe because it's a first day pitch or after a break his bowling arm is not in good shape for the long haul.

Not much success for Bangladesh bowlers on first day, just 3 wickets for the bowlers plus one run out. Kusal Mendis was unlucky to miss 3rd consecutive ton by just 7 run. Batting of Sri Lanka is much more stable today then what they have shown in first test. Sri Lanka might score 400+ runs before declaring or losing all wickets. Bangladesh now have a job at there disposal, they need to bowl out well set Sri Lankan batting and then chase a huge total of first innings. 

Today the Sri Lankan team played very well and I think as they made the target today, tomorrow they have to declare the innings after making 400 because in the last match's first innings, the Bangladesh team could not make even 200 runs so if they make 400 then I think that they have to play just an inning. After all, if the Bangladesh team did not upgrade their performance, then for sure, they will not be able to chase 400 runs in two innings.

I think tomorrow they have to make 400 runs in less than 20 overs and then in the remaining overs, they have to out them in the day of tomorrow then I think we can expect that Sri Lanka team can be a winner again and the match will end with the same result.

Yes I am farming this airdrop fro a week and now I have 700 points with 3600 rank. Bitget exchange is on the No12 ranking in the coinmarketcap and I will say that it is safe exchange so far. Bitget wallet is officially managing by bitget exchange. Their first name was Bitkeep which is rebranded to bitget wallet now. I am using the wallet for more then 2 years and I found it save DYOR

Ok here is my strategy to farm this airdrop

Create full new wallet,you will get 50 points
Enter Refer code of someone (you will get 20 points).
Now Send 200$ worth matic,eth(optimism network) or any low fee network token. Bridge to usdt and usdc and then daily swao usdt-usdc usdc-usdt to make 1000$ volume daily. You will get 100 points daily. I am expected 500$-1500$ profit from this airdrop.

Really appreciate the guidance on the airdrop however I am more interested to know if this is a closed source or open source wallet ?
As you must know that trust wallet is also being widely used for many people but it is not recommended as it is a closed source.

My other question was how do you compare it with Unstoppable Wallet and is it worth switching to bitget wallet if anyone using unstoppable wallet ? I mean I do not want to transfer my funds only to get this airdrop but to store them here for long term. Is it worth storing coins here ?
