FYI, a seller just sold 40k BTC yesterday. Too bad I cannot share with you the wallet address..

I don't doubt that large transfers happen, exchanges move large amounts of bitcoin regularly.  Regardless, If that's true I seriously doubt you had anything to do with it and even if you did share that address that wouldn't prove that it's yours.

Wanna make a bet so everyone would know who the real scammer is?

No wagers are needed to know "who the real scammer" is.  If you want some whale (and the peanut gallery) to take you seriously, sign a message from an address that's been party to a large transaction and watch all of us eat crow.  Otherwise, go try your scam somewhere else, this isn't our first rodeo.

I've never heard of CriptoDebit so I don't know the whole back-story, but this looks like an obvious scam.  There's no such thing as an anonymous debit card to begin with, any debit card transaction can be traced, and most purchases can easily be linked to a specific individual.  Online purchases of physical goods require a shipping address, and meat-space purchases can be subject to surveillance cameras.  Any service claiming anonymity with a debit card is flat-out lying.

The purpose of "Due diligence all parties (CIS, KYC)" will solve "unknown users" issue.

Why do you need to deal with an individual?  If you are willing to furnish KYC there's no reason not to use a legitimate exchange.  In fact, it seems like it would be much safer for you to use a legitimate exchange since you will be transferring the money to a licensed business that will be held accountable if something goes wrong.  Not to mention; finding someone who actually has 5000BTC that he wants to sell is going to be nearly impossible.  Even if I had all of Satoshi's bitcoin I wouldn't be selling more than 50 at time because fiat sucks!


Exchangers have limits and fees which we want to avoid considering that we want to do bulk transactions..

I see, so you expect someone with that much BTC to just fork it over without any fees or additional percentage points?  You must be really special.
1485  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum 4.2.2 2-of-3 multisig: sign transaction with remote wallet? on: June 03, 2022, 04:11:59 PM
Question 1: Is there a way to create a 2-of-3 multisig wallet in Electrum in this situation?

I have created a 2-of-3 multisig wallet in Electrum when holding all the hardware devices myself, but not when they are all in different locations.

Yes, of course.  As you noticed when creating the multi-sig wallet by yourself; while creating one you need the master public keys from the other two.  The most convenient way would be for all three individuals to be in a remote meeting with each other, all create a multi-sig wallet, then share their master public key with the other two participants.  It doesn't all have to happen at the same time, but it does make things easier.

For additional privacy I would want to use GPG to encrypt my master public key before sending it to the other participants.


Question 2: Is there a way to sign a transaction in a 2-of-3 multisig wallet in Electrum when all hardware devices are in separate locations?

Again, that's not a problem.  One person can create and sign a transaction, save it to disk, and then share it with the other participants via email.  One of the other two participants will import the transaction, and add the next signature.  Once the required number of signatures has been reached, any of the participants can broadcast the transaction.

Welsh just beat me to the punch by mentioning the technical difficulties that most people are likely to experience if they want to use bitcoin.  I would like to see more user-friendly applications and devices make safety, security, privacy easier to attain for the less technically skilled (like my mom.)

The other issue that I think some newbies have a hard time accepting is that bitcoin transactions are not reversible.  Obviously it's a safety feature on one side of the transaction, but since most consumers have become used to being coddled by big banks, they just assume that they can change their minds about a purchase after the fact.  That mentality needs to be reversed.

- the fact that satoshi, an unknown, possibly hostile entity, holds a sizable share of coins, is a ticking time bomb

It's been so long since that pile of coins has been touched, I think it's safe to assume that those coins may never move.  If I'm wrong about that, those coins account for less than 5% of the total supply.  Still a significant amount, and they could cause panic if they were all to be dumped at once, but again I have my doubts about that ever happening.

- 51% attacks as a means of "regulation" could become a common reality in the future, if government interference leads to control over a majority of miners

This is probably the most concerning of issues that faces bitcoin.  A wealthy, rouge, government could decide to attack the network for a variety of reasons.  It's impractical to expect everyone who owns bitcoin to contribute to mining, but that would be a practical preventive measure.
1487  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Can't sign a message with bitcoin core on: June 03, 2022, 01:25:55 AM
This may not be necessary, but just saying. If you can not sign a message with Bitcoin Core using natiive segwit address, you can use Electrum using Tor to generate address and sign message from there. That do not affect your privacy unless you want to use the address for sending and receiving bitcoin.

There's little risk to privacy if you import a single private key into a new Electrum wallet and connect to a public server.  Since there are no other keys associated with the master public key, there are no other addresses to associate with the one that's being imported.

I am not asking for personal information. It is enough to pass the KYC on any site and provide confirmation.

Just curious, did you notice TimeLord2067's loan application?  Did he qualify, and was his loan granted?  If not, can you please explain why not?


I need to be sure that the person really exists.

Before I provide information proving that I'm over 18 years of age, can you prove that the coins exist?  A signed message using an address with some funds would be good.

Looks like chipmlxer.com (SCAM!) just got a nice idea from you  Undecided

Don't blame anyone other than the scammers, that's not helpful.  Dkbit98's prediction was the obvious next move whether it was mentioned or not. 

The funniest part is that the scammers "onion" address is actually a clear-net address with chipmixer's real prefix.  Anyone who's used tor would know that's a big red flag right away, so hopefully it won't trick too many people.  If only these scamming clowns would put as much effort into a legitimate business as they do into scamming, they would probably make a comfortable income for themselves.

1492  Economy / Lending / Re: 1$ Loan Urgent on: June 02, 2022, 05:11:35 PM
Are you kidding ?
And for what you need this big amount ?
You need a valid collateral. Lol
I need a loan to buy a LUNA because it will grow 10 times. Can I use UST tokens as collateral?

Under normal circumstances I would be 99% certain this is trolling, but after looking at your post history I'm not so sure.  You might actually be serious.  Why don't you just buy Luna directly with your Terra tokens?  Anyway, the transaction fees are more than the interest you've offered, so even with collateral it's not something likely to happen.
1493  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] 1994 Mitsubishi Delica L400 Exceed on: June 02, 2022, 04:29:14 PM
There is sales tax. You can't really avoid it regardless of how you pay for the vehicle as it's typically assessed at the time of registration. But that's usually buyer's problem.
Is there a way to avoid paying taxes (or pay less) if previous owner declares that hi is giving away his car as a gift for free in United States?
Maybe he can register this car in some other countries like Mexico if he wants to avoid paying high extortion fees (just a crazy idea).

Not all states charge sales tax on used vehicle purchases.  Oregon, New Hampshire, and Delaware (for example, I think there are more) have no sales tax at all.  When registering a purchased car (new or used) in those states, they don't charge sales tax.  When one sells a used car in California the seller needs to list the sale price on the back of the title (or bill of sale,) and taxes are assessed based on the county/city in which the purchaser lives.  The buyer has to pay the tax to the DMV when registering the vehicle.  Even if the car is given as a gift, the value of the car must be declared.  The only exception is if the car is transferred between family members. 

I've sold cars and had the buyer ask me to list a very low price on the title.  Kind of a shitty request to make, asking someone to commit perjury so you can save a few bucks...

As for registering cars out-of-state, California has had a problem with this for a long time.  Since our state government is as corrupt as any racketeering mafia and our registration fees reflect it, many people register their cars in Oregon because it's much cheaper.  Not long ago they started cracking down on people with Oregon license plates on their car and California addresses on their drivers licenses.
1494  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: June 02, 2022, 04:06:13 PM
$30,000 definitely feels like the $6,000 point in 2018. We’re just here chilling, thinking this is the bottom & we can’t go any lower. I hope it is but if we test the lows I am going to buy with all I have.

Interesting times!

Zillow says my house is worth a fuck-ton more than I would ever pay for it.  Bitcoin feels underpriced (but I agree that it can go lower.)  Everything feels upside down, inside out.

All I ever needed to know about NFTs is they're NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS!  He'hem, so sorry for my outburst.  Sort of.

Digital art is great, I love it.  Those who appreciate it often purchase prints to hang prominently and enjoy.  It's been monetizable for decades.  Unless the price you pay for your pretty picture includes reproduction rights, it's nothing but a pretty picture.

And the driving wheel is on the....Grin..what side?

Lol, good question!  It's right hand drive:




Nice little 4-wheeler.  It would be perfect on the narrow fire-roads where I hunt deer.  I'm going to have to pass, though, right-hand-drive is a show-stopper for me, and I agree with Shopmix; the price is a bit steep.  Advertise it on craigslist in the rural areas of the north-east and mid-west; a lot of postal workers in those areas have to drive their own cars, and many would love a right-hand-drive for obvious reasons.
1498  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: bitcoinpenguin.com not paying out winnings on: June 01, 2022, 07:03:02 PM
hello there, i just wanted to report that the mentioned casino (bitcoinpenguin.com) is not paying out my winnings,
after more than 7 hours after withdraw, it is still in pending status.
Lets wait a little bit to see if the pay.

I've never heard of bitcoinpenguins, so I'm not defending them or supporting your accusation at this point.  But, 7 hours isn't anything to worry about.  Many casinos hold onto withdrawal requests for some time so they can combine the payouts.  It saves them a few sats on transaction fees, and if it's a smaller casino with only a few clients they may combine withdrawal requests for single payout every 24 hours.  The big cyrpto casinos do the same thing.  I will say that I don't recall ever waiting 7 hours for a payout from Sportsbet (for example,) but I can't say with certainty that they have never taken that long.  I usually request the withdrawal and go about my business, I don't sit around impatiently waiting for the coins to show up.

I recommend you remain patient and if the coins aren't sent to your wallet after 24 hours, then it may be time to worry.

Sorry but I will have to decline your offer, this is to much for me especially when the box was opened, even if you didn't use it at all (and you did).

No worries, thanks for your interest, nonetheless.


I just checked ledger website and brand new nono X device costs around 149€ with free shipping, and I can find it even locally.

Woah, I checked their site this past weekend and I could have swore they were asking $179 (USD,) but now I see they're asking $149 (USD, not Euros.)  I agree, $125 is too much, I'll drop it to $100.

I'm not in a hurry to sell any of these, I just got tired of these things taking up room in my drawer.  Give the ad a few more days, and if I don't get any bites I may be willing to entertain offers.
