33k is really a huge amount, and some people have those as their lifetime savings. I stead of going with exodus, you could have gone for a hardware wallet. Hardware wallets are so safe, that is stealing of funds would occur only if you lose the hardware wallet. Having the address alone is not enough to find out to whom does the wallet belong. Gmail is a poorly secured mail where even the newbie hackers can go through them. As most people try to use multisig wallet, it would really be difficult for you to find out who stole your funds.
Once in this forum, someone launched a campaign and handed over the funds which was in eth to a newbie campaign manager which had a value of 10k$. When the campaign ended, he didn't even reply and when his wallet was checked, the funds were sent to various addresses and when those wallets were checked, the funds moved to another wallet establishing a long chain of connected scam accounts and it was very difficult to track down. Similarly your funds could even move to many connected accounts and some would have even moved to some mixers which makes us quite very difficult to track down.
I suggest you to post a topic in Technical Support, so that anyone could help you and it is not like Bitcoin Discussion were your thread would be buried with spams.

This guide looks great for people who are struggling with English language. But some English people, though they are good in their language struggle to receive merits. These guys blame the system as faulty. Some points which could be added to the guide so that English language posters too could receive merit.
1. Post your comments for 0 reply topics. Though it may be a spam board such as Bitcoin Discussion or Altcoin Discussion you would get noted for your sensible comments by other higher ranked members. Even though you have posted high quality post in any of these spam boards and you have not been merited, post your reply for a review in "smerit post review" by bill gator or any other members doing such a service. Never reply to a 500+ or 1000+ topic as it could waste your time.
2. Read a lot in Technical Discussion, and if you feel like replying to a thread there, just do some research on the topic and post your reply. I have seen so many people who got merited to their useful posts.
3. Altcoin Discussion is the grey area where lots and lots of spams are generated for signature campaigns. There are hell a lot of technical topics out there in Altcoin Discussion which were never replied as they were easily buried in spam. It could have been started by a senior guy who has no knowledge in Blockchain or any altcoins seeking for some simple answers. If he gets pleased by your answer, he would merit you. And such kind of simple reply topics will never be answered as they will easily be swallowed in spam boards.
4. If you are member or lower rank, never try to join in Bitcoin Campaigns. Campaigns which are giving out payments in Btc demand a minimum of 25 posts to be posted in various boards. 25 posts in a span of 7 weeks is really difficult for you lower ranked guys which would result in the generation of spam replies. Higher ranked members are really good for their wit and humor and even a one liner reply of them would be really good to be merited. Altcoin Campaigns just demand only 10 posts/week which would be quite enough for us to write at least 5 quality posts per week which could earn a minimum merit of at least 3.
Hope these points would help at least a single member to gain a minimum of 2-3 merits. Please don't accuse me for writing long posts.

Yes you can join more than 2 bounties. There are some senior and full members who spammed their forum account while they were young members and increased their rank to senior and full members. But now they are joining signature campaigns which has higher stakes for their rank and they join only in facebook and twitter bounty and fill up their minimum post requirement. These members are shady in the forum as they do not even comment in technical discussion nor places where they can be identified. Since this merit was implemented, they will never reach higher member rank and would stay in their same rank forever. I can mention a handful of accounts which are participating in more than 10 bounties and when you see their token balances, it could be around 10,000$. You can join around 10 bounties if you have the required time of posting around 5*10=50 posts+50 shares in your facebook account and these signature campaign managers consider that too as post count  |

I have given this post a Merit. Second one, is a one liner post which is not good though. Third one has been deleted.  Not very useful to give out a merit. Sorry, please try to resubmit the posts which you feel it deserves to get a merit. Don't mention sir in your future posts. Your first post has already received 3 merits, which is not that worth at all. Second post about Merits  I am really sick of going through these merit posts. Forget about merit and try contributing more to the forum. Merits will be given automatically. It's clear that you haven't gone through the rules which I have mentioned above and you throw a dozen posts at a time, hoping that at least one would be given a merit. Hence I didn't even go through the posts which you have posted above and rejected all the posts. Please narrow your submissions to one or two posts and don't just throw all the posts you have made in this forum. Shitpost which will not be merited. Reviewing other posts. |

I still do not understand what rayden is. Anyway, thanks for posting so I can deepen and study
Let me give out my view on what is Raiden Network based on my study! First let us come to Raiden Network, Ethereum has been in the scalability issue for the past few months. Crypto currency payments are becoming common in today's technologically advanced world. Visa is processing the transactions at the rate of 50,000 per second,but when compared to Eth it can hardly process only 15 transactions per second on an average. Once more people start using crypto for payments, these need to compete with other fiat transactions. To solve this Raiden Network was introduced. In simple terms it is just a additional technology to Eth network. What does Raiden to do with transactions? First, it increases the transaction speed to a very higher rate by doing around 100,000,000 transactions per second. Second, it can process private transactions by preventing the transactions to occur on-chain and most importantly a very cheap transaction on eth network. For the working of raiden, it is similar to the lightning network. Hence kindly refer to the working of lightning network by reading it's whitepaper. Raiden Network is not only a technology, it is also a Cryptocurrency. Raiden Network Token (RDN) is an ERC-20 token which was created to fund the project and also to be used as a exchange medium in the network. Many people accept its token which has a minimal supply of 100 mill and currently 50% is in circulation and they can be traded in popular exchanges like Binance. This token has really good potential to make good returns once Raiden becomes popular. |

You have already been red tagged for exchanging merits with your alt and you will be tagged for being a spammer and you have created 3 threads, one in the Beginners and Help another in Altcoin Discussion and other one here. What merit has to do with Altcoin Discussion? This clearly says you are a spammer with very low posting quality. You have posted around 200 posts and you can't even receive a single merit.There are people short of 5 merits to become a Full Member and you still cant earn even a single merit  |

Yes it is possible to increase the supply of total coins at a later stage. But the Token owners doesn't involve in them, as because such an activity could result in affecting the token price hugely in the exchanges. Investors never accept them and some sort of arguments could occur between the investors and owners. A token supply amount which was mentioned in the white paper will be carried through out the project.
Similarly burning of unsold coins/tokens could occur because that would increase the price of a token and would help the investors. Hence decreasing the total supply would occur at some point if there is very low sales in the pre ICO and the ICO phase. This instance would occur on very rare instances and such a instance could bring a downfall for the token whereas decrease in total supply would be appreciated.

Since today the price of btc skyrocketed, you are worrying about the 1m coins. What if satoshi didn't mine and the btc network wasn't popular? you would not have worried about the 1m coins which would have been worthless today. Once the genesis block was mined on Jan 3,2009 it took around 6-10 months for the coin to get popular. Satoshi allocated 1m BTC for himself.
Just read through the history another time and try to get a clarity on how was btc created. Why didn't you mine the coin during 2009 as it was meant to be. You could have got 1m btc which would have made you a billionaire today. Was this an instamine via an initial superblock after the genesis block?
There was nothing like an instamine. When the genesis block was mined, it generated 50 coins newly. When you continuously mine it for around 2 years you could have easily generated 1m as the difficulty was easy at that time. Did he just ninjamine the initial 1m coins?
It took around 2 years for him to mine the 1m coins from Jan 2009- Dec 2010. Genesis Block code for your reference: // Genesis block
const char* pszTimestamp = "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks";
CTransaction txNew;
txNew.vin.resize(1);
txNew.vout.resize(1);
txNew.vin[0].scriptSig = CScript() << 486604799 << CBigNum(4) << vector<unsigned char>((const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp, (const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp + strlen(pszTimestamp));
txNew.vout[0].nValue = 50 * COIN;
CBigNum bnPubKey;
bnPubKey.SetHex("0x5F1DF16B2B704C8A578D0BBAF74D385CDE12C11EE50455F3C438EF4C3FBCF649B6DE611FEAE06279A60939E028A8D65C10B73071A6F16719274855FEB0FD8A6704");
txNew.vout[0].scriptPubKey = CScript() << bnPubKey << OP_CHECKSIG;
CBlock block;
block.vtx.push_back(txNew);
block.hashPrevBlock = 0;
block.hashMerkleRoot = block.BuildMerkleTree();
block.nVersion = 1;
block.nTime = 1231006505;
block.nBits = 0x1d00ffff;
block.nNonce = 2083236893;

Migration of blockfolio from one mobile to another can be done easily. Just visit the settings present in the app of both your phones and just copy the Device ID present in your both phones which was given to you during installation. Once you have done copying the ID info, send it as a mail to blockfolio team. Once you have done with mailing and requested them for the transfer, they would do it for you. |

No, I think you might be wrong in understanding the Max_Money variable. Max_Money is rather a sanity check and not the total money supply which when said in bitcoin is less than 21,000,000. This Max_Money constant is used to prevent people from doing a transaction not more than 21,000,000. For example if there happens to be a overflow bug within the network that happens to create a coin out of simple modification leads to a fork. The total supply of btc will always be less than 21,000,000. Subsidy is cut in half every 210000 blocks, which will occur approximately every 4 years
nSubsidy >>= (nHeight / 210000);
Which means when the first 210000 blocks are created, the mining rewards were 50btc, and the next 210,000 blocks the reward is cut in half to 25 btc and the next 210000 blocks the reward is cut in half to 12.5 btc. This process continues till the total coins are mined out which will be equal to 20999999.9769btc which is approximately equal to 21 million. We can even change the original value, to a higher value but it would disturb the integrity of community and the limit set by satoshi I am not good in explaining programming techniques. Correct me if I am wrong |

Can someone help me too? IDK how to start a discussion but does anyone know of a way to retrieve a private key? I am in need of trying to figure one out. Can someone help me figure out the private key to a specific address?
Is your question about how to start a new discussion or how to steal a private key from a btc address so that you can take over all the balances and run away? If the latter is your question then it is of no use to try out. If you have lost the private key of your address, then it is totally gone. If you at least have a seed phrase you could recover them. An address is derived from the public key which is further derived from a private key. Getting a private key from an address is not possible. If you are trying to spend your funds from a wallet, then you need to search for the private key which would be mentioned inside the wallet itself. If you are holding your funds in an exchange, they don't give out private keys and you just need to use the address. As bob123 said, specify which wallet you are using so that it could be helpful for us to help you. |

Newbie krainzmaster trying to be constructive by just copy pasting. Copied thread : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3161542.0Archive for future reference : http://archive.is/tO7ggI just want to give you some information, to take care about  There is a common misconception, that Blockchain technology automatically guarantees high security because of its cryptography and inalterability. Despite these definite strengths of the technology, the Blockchain ecosystem is not necessarily a safe haven. Even small security gaps can have a big influence. What gaps or risks could apply, can be showcased by two fatal incidents, where hackers exploited weaknesses in the code of the particular organizations with the help of the underlying Blockchain Smart Contract technology.In june 2016 the venture capital fund organization “Decentralized Autonomous Organisation (short “DAO”) has been deprived of approximately $ 50 Mio. in form of Ether during a business operation. DAO is a decentralized virtual organization, where members decide via votes, which company receives suitable risk capital - represented by a Smart Contract based on the Ethereum Blockchain. At the end of the voting the gathered Ether will be transferred to the elected wallet. An additional feature, the “split DAO” function, was the downfall of the organization. This function allowed to split the transfer of Ether onto multiple wallets, so called “child DAO”. It was possible via a Smart Contract, which worked technically flawless, but enabled participants to request multiple splits simultaneously, despite not yet balanced ledgers. The attackers were able to request a split up to 200 times and almost completely empty the DAO wallet. The weakness was in the DAO Smart Contract, the Ethereum Blockchain worked faultless and even to the attackers advantage. To prevent this hack a simple review and testing before publishing the Smart Contract would most likely have been sufficient.In August 2016 the cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex in Hong-Kong has been compromised. 120,000 Bitcoins have been stolen from user wallets. To increase security, Bitfinex introduced a so called “Multi-Signature Key Management System”, where private keys of users were stored by Bitfinex itself and third party provider BitGo. The exact cause of the attack has never been confirmed, but the hackers were able to access all three necessary keys to perform a transaction on the accounts. Again the security gap was in the organizations concept and not the Blockchain technology itself. Both examples show that the underlying Blockchain technology worked reliably and safe, but the applications built upon showed a lack of security and missing risk assessment, which enabled the hacks. Original Medium post : https://medium.com/@blockpit/cyber-security-and-blockchain-is-blockchain-really-as-secure-as-everyone-says-35e0274eacb8He tries to be too constructive by highlighting some lines |

Is it possible to have Ledger Nano S working with neotracker.io? Like MEW?
Trusting a third party web wallet for storing your coins is not really good. Ledger can be used to store your Neo in a safer way. Use the Ledger Manager to access your coins. If you don't have one, you can download them from here. Open them, and connect your ledger to the computer and unlock them. Download the Neo application and open the Neon wallet. Once all is set up, you could see the "Wake up Neo". On the neon wallet, click "Login using a Ledger" button. You are given a new Neo address, and transfer all your Gas and Neo to the ledger address. |

Ethereum might shift to POS concept at some time in the future. At present there are no updates regarding this, and we cannot comment on our own. If you are in a way to mine POS currencies you could try mining Dash. But on the contrary, there should be around 1000 dash currencies for you to get an annual return. Currently now each Dash is around 350$ and you need a holding of 350000$ in dash to get an annual return. Dash is not purely a POS, but it works in the way of Staking. If you are not interested in Dash, try with Neo. Neo along with its own has a additional token known as Neogas. Each Gas is around 15$ each at this time and you could get good returns of you try to mine Neo. You can check your profits with Gas here OKcash has been another crypto which is rewarding the highest returns to its users when compared to other POS coins. You can get around 10% of annual returns from okcash. Other similar currencies include Nav and Redd coins which follow the POS concept. |

Hacking of accounts will mostly happen if you have funds in the exchanges. The one who is not in control of his private keys are not in control of their funds. Hence keeping huge money is exchanges are not advisable. Hacking of accounts can also occur when you have entered a phishing site and accidently given your private key.
At first, if you are using MEW try to bookmark the official site, most of the people visit a fake site and randomly give out their private keys. Secondly, unless you are doing a transaction never login to your wallet. Only use ethplorer or etherscan to check the balances. Use a hardware wallet if you have high value in your wallet. Send the coins to the exchange when you want to convert to your fiat money. These could help you in protecting your wallet from hacks.

According to coinmarketcap data there are around 900 coins which work on their own blockchain and 600 tokens supported on other blockchain. There are many ICO currently running which would be added to coinmarketcap in the future. Btc being the first digital currency to solve the double spending problem remains in the top crypto. Blockchain technology was invented along with the btc, by keeping these in mind there would be very few currencies which would replace them.

As I have already said in another thread which you have posted, it is purely based on your own assumption weather to fix the price of each coin at 1$ or 0.1$. Did you read my previous reply? I have explained there clearly about holding your coins, setting price. You may not have read through them, and just simply throwing out questions here. If your price/token or coin is high, there will be very less investors and a less hard cap will help you reach the target.
Everything right from market price and ICO selling is based on how well your coin serves the community.

It is so sad to hear that you are not aware of the websites you visit and just randomly throwing out private keys in the phishing website. You are solely the one who is responsible for losing of your funds. It is clear that, MEW has too much of phishing sites to steal the funds of users. You should have double checked your url before entering your private key. The site has clearly said to bookmark https://www.myetherwallet.com/ and you would be seeing a MEW security in green near your address bar. Before entering a private key in a website you should have atleast used metamask, so that it could have offered some help. At least from now on, try to be aware of phishing sites and real sites and try to use a ledger in the future. |
