I am looking how to become an Escrow and wind up here.  To become an escrow you first must need a good reputation. With your account rank and this status I don't think you can become an escrow provider here. First contribute the forum, do trades, do deals, support peoples. When everyone (or many poeples) start to trust you and can vouch for you and when your account rank become at least Hero Member you can start offering escrow service. Thanks for the advice I don't know what trades you are talking about is it the trades like alt coin? I think they are talking about every thing here -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=5.0 |

Yeah. This: i highly doubt that it is possible to earn fast and without any decent work, you might need to spend some time in signature campaign or you can try your luck gambling though do it extremely carefully as most probably you will loose

So whats the discussion about even? Is there still an unpaid loan or is just the normal paranoia that keeps this going?
The loan never actually happened. Just more people shouting the virtues of paranoia from the rooftops as the only solution. Understatement. Whoever had that account before asked for a 0.38BTC loan, was looking for a 0.6BTC paypal/skrill/payza/wmz trade, and was selling that account. All that in the same day. Also said something about having recovered the account (no proof) shortly after being called out. This means whoever had that account before fully intended to scam. Besides, OP have not brought any sort of proof to this thread.-snip- I get that the story smells like shit, but I also see the point TECSHARE made. |

If I can't delete my account then I'm asking a mod to do so.
They got better things to do. Id do it[1] for 0.03 btc. Shoot me a PM if you are interested. [1] meaning: delete (all*) your posts and PMs and change the password to something random** I dont store***. *Not all posts can be deleted (forum restriction). Posts that are related to scams will not be removed. ** e.g. 8 eff dice ware words, no security question, email will be: username@bitcointalk.org. *** only typed by hand to change it, wipe browser session (tor) after I am finished. |

I would like to ask can I insert short link (adf ly or similar) in signature???
And can I insert any referral link in signature???
Thanks
Yes, in fact your signature is the only place you may put a referal link[1]. A shortened link might get removed or replace by the forum. [1] thats not entirely true, there are some other rare exceptions, but for simplicity it should do. |

50€ oder 50BTC? Wäre ein Unterschied  Es ist der Gegenwert von 50,-€. Wieviel BTC das sind kann ich ja nicht nachschauen, weilich momentan von Bitcoin weg bin. (siehe oben). Also zwischen 30.000 und 30 € je nachdem wann du gekauft hast. |

i have never used bitcoin mixers , i don't need to be anonymous is it bad to use one address for everything?
Yes. Its bad for your privacy and for the privacy of everyone you trade with. if i stole some coins or hacked any exchange than i will use bitcoin mixing servic other way i will not think about it.they are my first wallet when i came to bitcoin world they charged me 0.001btc for every transaction after that i switched to blockchain and they charged me 1/10th of it
Exchanges are no wallets and with "blockchain" you probably mean "blockchain.info". These two are completly different things. |

@shorena, I honestly don't know how you've survived on this forum for so long. You have the patience of a saint.  Thanks, I try. Taking lengthy breaks helps a lot. It seems that there are a lot of people, who fail at basic logic, mathematics and reading and comprehension, who have somehow stumbled into the world of Bitcoins.
I'm not sure if it is the media stories talking about people making fantastic amounts of money because Bitcoin went from being near worthless to being ~USD$650... but there are a lot of people around who just don't seem to understand the core concepts.
Granted, the world of crypto can be very confusing, and public keys, private keys, hashes and all the associated math and interrelationships can be a bit overwhelming... but still... a little bit of reading is enough to grasp the fundamentals, which (tricky crypto math aside) isn't really that hard to understand.
When someone understands something exceptionally well they are able to explain it in the simplest terms. -> https://media.ccc.de/v/31c3_-_6369_-_en_-_saal_1_-_201412272145_-_ecchacks_-_djb_-_tanja_langeor if you prever youtube -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6jTFxQaUJASplit key generation is perfectly safe... at least as safe as Bitcoin itself. I assume that poster was getting confused with so-called vanitygen websites that don't do split key and just spit out a pub/priv key pair and "promise" not to record the private key... Also... why people don't just download the vanitygen app themselves and run it is beyond me??  It's tiny, and even on a single AMD R9-270 card I can generate relatively simple 4 or 5 char vanity addresses in minutes... I think laptops are very common among posters here. Their CPUs tend to be weak and they often come with a GPU that isnt capable of OpenCL caluclations. |

In my, Mycellium Wallet i have over 95 Private Keys because i did not know i could use the same wallet to recieve coins  Can i remove or delete some of them or will be be just more simple to uninstall and reinstall the wallet in question? Thanks for any advice and help SluckSpecht If you imported those keys and if you have a backup (just in case, dont skip that!) you can remove them. If they are part of the HD wallet you cant and there is no reason to do so. |

Habe eine Frage zu einer Wallet gesehen. Auf gutefrage Wer Ahnung hat, kann dort antworten, oder hier antworten und seinen Post verlinken. http://www.gutefrage.net/frage/bitcoin-wallet-oefters-verwendenBitcoin wallet öfters verwenden? Hallo ich benutzte Das bitcoin wallet GreenAddres und ein kollege möchte mir 20€ Überweisen nun gehe ich auf Geld empfangen und dort steht URl und Addresse anzeigen. Nun zeigt er mir die Addresse die höchstwahrscheinlich das Wallet ist und mein Kollege dort überweisen kann doch wenn ich diesen Vorgang nochmal mache wird eine neue Addresse generiert, kann man Kumpel noch auf die alte Adresse geld senden ? Wäre super dankbar für die Hilfe Ja, man sollte zwar für jeden Zweck eine neue Adresse nutzen, aber die alten verfallen niemals. Eine Adresse ist keine Kontonummer auch wenn das gerne so dargestellt wird. Eine Wallet kann beliebig viele Adressen verwalten. Eine neue Adresse für jeden Zweck oder jede Überweisung zu nutzen kann einem helfen die Übersicht zu behalten. Ordne jeder Adresse einen Bezeichner zu (z.B. Kollege A Essen, Sonntag 31.07.2016) und du weißt immer woher die Bitcoin kommen und wofür du die Adresse erstellt hast. Das vermeidet das man nicht weiß woher die Coins kommen die einem jemand sendet und erst nachfragen muss. Jedes mal eine neue Adresse zu nutzen heißt auch das man dem Gegenüber nicht mitteilt wieviel Bitcoins man hat. Wer immer die selbe Adresse nennt veröffentlicht viele Informationen über sich selbst die man vielleicht lieber privat halten möchte. Kannste dort gerne posten und den hier als Quelle angeben oder so. Kann man im Detail auch bestimmt noch verbessern. |

Mixers have their place and serve their purpose, but bitcoin was never designed to be anonymous. You can put your money to services that do not require your information or only minimal. When you buy milk in the store, do they ask for your address? Would you buy milk at a store that does? So why is it ok to give out your address when buying digital goods?
I think providing the address that is mentioned in the article is for delivery purposes. If you buy purely digital goods I don't see any reason the provide your physical address. But when you buy physical goods online using bitcoin, the goods somehow need to arrive at your home. Unless you use a PO box or something, you will always need to provide personal details when buying this type of stuff. That is true, when you need goods delivered you have to provide an address. It must not be a personal one though. Can be a company one, a PO box like you said or even a local store can work sometimes. Breaking connections between digital and physical identities is not easy and requires work, but with a little creativity it can work. I think bitcoin is more often used for digital goods and I had several occasions where I was asked to provide a full address for those (e.g. gift cards). One time they even wanted to verify my (obviously fake) address. I asked for a refund in bitcoin and somehow a verification was no longer needed (I assume they never held any bitcoin). Its usually the last time I use a service like that. At least according to german law a company should only store the information that are needed(!) for a deal. My address is not needed when I pay with bitcoin for a gift card worth a reasonable amount. nobody need your address if you buy milk. that is true, but if they find out, that somebody in their store poised all the packages containing milk, then they could warn all the costumers. this is not very likely but an argument. also if i buy/sell a car or something with a certain price i want to have some sort of address just in case. and i don't care if it is just a digital product or not. "Just in case"? Which case, Im paying bitcoin. Wait for a confirmation and there are only cases where I need to contact you, because you sold me a shit car. well did you read the part with the poisoned milk? also let us say the manufacturer discovered a flaw in his car where suddenly the breaks don't work anymore. If i would have your address, than i could warn you in both these cases. i would certainly appreciate it if i would not have to die. buy i guess it is your own choice. As long as its my choice, Ill take the risk of poisoned milk. I also hear press is pretty good at reaching people when cars have a major flaw. |

No never get lured by any vanity address generator as whatever they claim about not saving your private key or creating two seperate file by two different personal is just a lie. In creating vanity address private key is also generated and there will be no proof they can provide that they haven't saved your private key with them.
-snip-
Split key vanitygen is not a lie its ECDSA math. Person A creates one private key (A) and sends the public key (A_pub) to person B. That person now searches for a private key B. It must be in a way that its public key B_pub combined with A_pub results in a bitcoin address with the wanted prefix (e.g. 1test). A combines the keys A and B for the final private key C that has an address with prefix 1test. The key B alone is not enough to get C. You need both. A very simplistic way to understand this is to think about clocks. Lets say I think of a time (I wont tell you) and you tell me a time (13:37). I now add both times and create a new time (mod 24 and 60). Which time is it? This holds even true for basic addition: A(unknown) + B (known) = C (unknown). If you can tell me a way to know C for a given but unknown A. I will stop my vanity gen business and send all my income to an address of your choosing. |

(Cause your braced yourself) Have you seen The Purge? When no rules, everyones doing killing, when rules, theres still killing, but not as much. You get the point
No I dont, its a movie and a bad one. Its a bad plot to justify some violence and mild distress.
Fair enough, altho that wasn't my point. And how do you decide its bad if you haven't seen it? offtopic; I know I messed up the quotes.I have seen it, I dont get your point in that regard. So No I dont was in response if you get my point. Okay got it, my bad. So I came to a conclusion I wouldn't trust anyone based on his activity nor feedback as today I might be talking to one person, tomorrow to different, nonetheless its the same account. Essentially thats the consquence of the current situation yes. There are ways to verify someone is might be the same person, but they are not perfect. E.g. I can give you a message signed with an address I posted in 2013. I could have sold the private key for that address with my account though. So its just an indicator. Same goes for PGP signed messages. You still get to know people and can build trust based on their actions over time. Just stay cautions. Might be the reason why this community is so paranoid sometimes. |

Thanks. But just wondering. What's the reason for it asking me to enter a password when I'm creating the wallet? When is that password used?
When you want to spend the coins or sign a message. The password only protects the private keys, not all information about the wallet. IIRC Multibit HD is the only wallet where everything is encrypted. |
