15082  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Accessing Windows 10 desktop wallet from Android on: January 02, 2018, 10:31:36 AM
Thanks for having a look at this.
But ...tried half a dozen times now.

Seed words are easy to get right since the app gives a list of qualifying words after initial letters entered.

Electrum v 3.0.3.0 on Android

   I already have a seed

   Entered 12 word seed phrase (correctly)

   'Next' button never enables.

This same 12 word seed created wallets on two different Windows 10
computers without a problem.

One thing that might affect this is that the wallet and seed phrase
was originally created on a desktop in the Multibit HD software and then
transferred to Electrum using the specific Multibit import facility Electrum provides.
I'm thinking maybe the seed phrase is one that is only enabled on PC because it comes from a Multibit wallet, and the Android app does not have that facility??

(In which case you are probably going to tell me to create a new Electrum PC wallet, send the funds to that and then open an Android wallet with the new wallet's seed phrase. Would prefer to avoid the transaction costs but will do this if that's what's happening).

Thanks




Problem is in derivation paths,since you use seed which is created in MultiBit HD and you recover your wallet in Electrum with that seed,but desktop version have option to select derivation paths and in android version there is no such option.

Like you say only way to have same seed on desktop&android version of Electrum wallet is to create new Electrum wallet with new seed and send your BTC to that wallet in transaction-then you can use that seed on android version and you will see your balance&transaction.
15083  Economy / Speculation / Re: 01/01/2018 BTC $10k ? on: January 01, 2018, 02:22:15 PM
Nothing specifically happened on the first day of New Year,price is moving around 13k$ level and yesterday is touch 14K$ again for short time.Looking at the past few days 10k$ is unlikely that will happen because every time when it is close to 12k$ it is bounce back and stay for some time between 13-14k$.

Unconfirmed transaction is close to 100k which is significant improvement from almost 300k we have recently,and fee is also drop to 490 satoshis/byte.But this is just because of New Year's Eve and celebrations around the world,little relief for blockchain.
15084  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Bitcoin ATM Is Coming at a Location Near You??? on: January 01, 2018, 12:50:49 PM
http://www.bitcoinblogger.com/2011/07/bitcoin-atm-is-coming-at-location-near.html

If the cards fall into place bitcoin ATMs may be on the way.

There are many annoyances with bitcoin including the following:

1.) Bitcoins are very difficult to obtain on the Internet.
2.) It is near impossible for an average user to generate bitcoins with his or her computer.
3.) Technical skill is required to obtain bitcoins via an online exchange.
4.) If money is sent from a bank account to an online exchange then the transaction is no longer anonymous and that money can be traced.
5.) Sending cash in the mail for bitcoins could take days, weeks, or not at all and is unreliable.

What is the solution to these many problems? Multiple teams within the United States are attempting to build and distribute ATMs in mass quantities. ATMs will allow bitcoins to be distributed anonymously with cash without the need for an exchange. With bitcoin ATMs it will only be a drive away before an average person can buy bitcoins! The value of bitcoin will skyrocket once a non-technical user can buy bitcoins as easy as buying local goods.

There are many ways to distribute bitcoins with an ATM and each development team is handling them uniquely. I could explain in further detail in how these bitcoin ATMs would work, but to protect the business interests of my sources I am going to remain quite for now. Who will win the race to provide the best bitcoin ATM with the most locations?

Here is an early attempt of one team hacking open an eBay bought ATM:

http://biticon.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/bitcoin-atm/
http://biticon.wordpress.com/2011/04/16/atm-progress/

If data on this link are accurate https://coinatmradar.com/country/226/bitcoin-atm-united-states/ then in this moment there is a 1290 ATMs in USA and this is the largest number of BTC ATMs in one country.This is for some easy way to buy/sell BTC,but in most cases very expensive way because of high fees(average 9.21%).

Every initiative that can help in a way that BTC becomes more accessible is commendable,but current situation with high fee and slow transaction+fee taken by service make purchases of BTC through ATMs very expensive.

15085  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Your New Year Resolutions for Bitcoin in 2018? on: January 01, 2018, 11:02:29 AM
Not much more than what I have done so far,try to get as much BTC and some other altcoins and learn more about cryptocurrency.I wish that some solution for scalability problem appears this year and that we can move forward.

In general I not look BTC future in short term because I have no plans to sell in next 5-10 years and I do not care about bans from some countries.BTC is much more then one or two country of several individuals,power of BTC is in people who believe in it as the first decentralized currency in the world.

This year will certainly be interesting,more or less than last year time will tell Smiley
15086  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Transfer Bitcoin through wallets in Electrum on: January 01, 2018, 10:39:12 AM
Can I import the bitcoin in a new wallet  with the private key and then change this private keys?

When you import private key in wallet you also import address which is related to that private key,so you just change wallet but address and private key remain the same.If you want to move your BTC to new address you need to send them on transaction to new address,then with that address you will get new private key.

I do not know what exactly you want to achieve with "changing of private key",but if you care about privacy then you shoud know that Electrum will always give you new address for receive BTC,and when you send it will use change address.

I recommend you read about how things work with Electrum : http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/

15087  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Buy Litecoin today - 31/12/17 ? on: December 31, 2017, 02:12:44 PM
As many others altcoins LTC is increase its value more then 50 times in very short time,and it is one of few coins who can survive for long term next to BTC.For that reason I think it is good to invest some money in LTC even today at price of 220$,but it may go lower if BTC price start droping to 10k$ level.

For me personally last day of the year is not good for business and it is better to have some fun and good time-LTC will be on market in next year,and maybe price will go down.
15088  Economy / Speculation / Re: Hey guys do you think that Bitcoin price will continue decreasing ? on: December 31, 2017, 11:45:17 AM
Price just have correction from unsustainable 19 000$ level to 12 000$-14 000$ level where it is these days, and for now it seems that will be there for some time.If you are in cryptocurrency for some time such a development of events is not anything that should to surprise you,but many fresh buyers who bought BTC in the range from 15 000$-20 000$ start to panic selling in the moment price go down.So even price is recover to 16 000$ few days ago selling orders are just crushed that level very fast.

I think that most of buyers from 15k$-20k$ sell what they have,and some others wait some price increase to sell again,but in overall price should be stay above 10 000$ level.
15089  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-12-30] Payment Provider Bitrefill Runs Successful Lightning Transaction Te on: December 31, 2017, 11:23:12 AM
As we can see Lightning Network is a very hot topic these days,and that is quite understandable because BTC have big problem with scalability.Since SegWit has not succeeded so far to solve this(mainly the fault of exchanges),LN is something that is imposed as the only solution.The biggest question is when it will become available for using,and we know it will not be before wallets providers&exchanges give green light.

Considering time which is past from SegWit availability and it is now 5 months,it is hard to expect that we may have LN in first six months of next year.But if there is desire and determination to do that, then it is possible that this happens earlier.

In the example of Bitrefill is clearly visible that things can develop fast and successfully,just imagine if others do the same thing.Unfortunately things are developing too slowly and we can only hope that developers will switch to higher speed in next year.

You do know that Dennis Gartman is the best-known contrarian indicator on Wall Street?

Quote
I'm so glad that I sold the last of my gold position on Friday. There isn't any reason to be on the same side of a Dennis Gartman trade, not now, not ever.

Have a search through the @zerhedge Twitter feed to see his history of calling every top and bottom of the oil market. He buys high and sells low without fail.


Can we compare oil and BTC market?I do not think that makes any sense and prediction from Mr.Dennis is only one pure speculation like many others before.What we see now is so many prediction like this one,just few weeks ago the situation was completely different and many predict 20k$ + as something inevitably at the end of this year.

Even if we see BTC at 5000$ again(I personally do not believe it will happen)this will not be end of BTC,just new opportunity to buy at low price.Mr.Dennis have two things in which he believes,dollar and oil-better to stick to that.
15091  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-12-29] From $900 to $20,000: Bitcoin's Historic 2017 Price Run Revisited on: December 30, 2017, 02:42:03 PM
If you would have told me that this year we would reach near $20k levels, I would probably think you're mentally challenged. It just shows how much impact a higher level of adoption has on this market, and that we're by far not there yet. I am however almost certain that we won't be able to re-experience like 1500-2000% growth rates within a year again. I think we should be happy with a 100% increase at minimum per year, which means that we will almost reach $100k somewhere in 2020 with a few corrections calculated in, which seems quite realistic to me. I'm definitely looking forward to further user and institutional adoption in the coming year. Wink

Exactly,who could ever thought that it was possible to achieve such price increase in only one year-and even price is go down from 20k $ level it is still great achievement to be above 10k $ at the end of this year.I also think that we should not be expected to see such high price increase in next year,but some predict 40k $ with correction to 20k $.In my opinion only 50% growth rate would be quite enough to get us to 100k $ at the year 2023,and very close to 1 million $ in next 10 years.

What I still want to see more then price increase in next year is some solution to this insane scalability problem,I doubt we can go ahead while we have this kind of situation.Maybe this is not problem for big players,but for ordinary people who send/receive small transactions it certainly is.
15092  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Stolen or lost BTC with Electrum Wallet on: December 30, 2017, 02:02:02 PM
I foud the fake site just typing "electrum wallet" on google (i am using www.google.com.br) or just "electrum".
To me the fake appears o top, above the correct site. Is the first site on this search....
That's probably an ad.

It is common for scammers to pay Google so their fake website can be shown above the real website. The same happened with BitMixer and now is happening with ChipMixer.

Everybody can help by reporting the website to google with this form: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/

I just use google search for "Electrum" and get one of the fake sites at the top of the page,it is paid advertising and it is big problem for crypto community.Since Electrum is one of the most popular wallets we can only imagine how many people are deceived and lost their money.

I will definitely report each of these fake pages and I hope Google will do something about that quickly.I do not know it is possible but they should not allow any advertising with "electrum" in the name of the site.
15093  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Problem bitcoin unconfirmed, move from multibit to electrum on: December 30, 2017, 01:50:33 PM
Hello !

Is it normal that I have unconfirmed bitcoin in my multibit wallet ? What does it mean and what can I do to solve this problem ? You can see the screenshot with the URL below Smiley Sorry my wallet is in french ! Thanks a lot for your help ! My transactions was a long time ago, on January 2016 and I think that Multibit is not working anymore.


Have a nice day!

Hugo




MultiBit is outdated and it is not working for a long time,there is no developers support.So you say that you send BTC from MultiBit to Electrum in January 2016,do you have that Electrum wallet today?

If you have your seed or private keys it is best to import them in Electrum https://electrum.org/#home (be careful,many fake sites) and then you will see your balance.Probably MultiBit is broken and does not show the real state of things.

To create new Electrum wallet with MultiBit seed follow these instructions : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-KcY6KUVnY
15094  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin domination era is over? on: December 30, 2017, 11:49:55 AM
when a coin worth less than $2 is getting close to bitcoin which is above $13000 and you are talking about dominance, you have to start thinking something is wrong with what you are saying!

i mean seriously you are talking about taking over bitcoin with a coin worth $2. where in the world does that sound like a "take over"?

not to mention how centralized they both are and how it keeps pulling out billions of token out of their ass. Cheesy

People just look at the numbers and they do not see the overall picture,it only shows that it is very easy to manipulate with the market.Many altcoins see their chance to push forward in this hard time for BTC regarding slow transaction and high fees.Since most users are in crypto world just for quick profit and they look only numbers such headlines do not surprise me personally.

I do not see any other coin on that marketcap which has a long-term future,but developers in BTC world have to take some action urgently and start to solving scalability problem-without some improvements in this regard it is difficult that progress can be made.
15095  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: I just lost one of my 24 seed phrase on ledger nano s, please help! on: December 30, 2017, 10:54:15 AM
Guys please help me, I dont know how to retrieve that missing word, Im so worried right now, and its almost 2100 words generated inside the ledger nano s, which means I have to try about 2100times to restore it, it could take forever and its kiing me right now Embarrassed Embarrassed

Do you still have control on your wallet,can you access to your coins?If that is the case then is best to send your coins to other wallets and reset your Ledger Nano S to make new seed.In order to to that,after your coins are in new wallet you just need to enter incorrect pin 3 times and then start with setup to create new seed.

If you do not have access to your wallet and you lost one of the seed words I think you have big problem,maybe you have some chance to get that lost word-but you will need to know where is that missing word in sequence of 24 words.
15096  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Stolen or lost BTC with Electrum Wallet on: December 29, 2017, 05:20:09 PM
In your first post you post link to official site of Electrum and now you say that you download it from this fake site, so it is fake wallet who steal your BTC and nothing else.But it is good that you admitted your mistake so we know what it is all about,unfortunately you pay high price just because you did not check is this site is real or fake.

There are lot of such sites,and no matter how many of them are closed new ones appear constantly.Stealing of cryptocurrency has become a very lucrative business...
15097  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is this a good advice? on: December 29, 2017, 02:16:38 PM
Bitcoin price is rising up in rocket speed and penny-pinching mind is always yelling that hold.. hold and hold your Bitcoins. Don't convert to fiat or spend them. But, there's a big risk...what to do?. This is a question somebody asked me today.

I didn't answer at him, but, thought deeply about that and got the following mind.

If you've 10BTC convert 5BTC into fiat and wait until the remainder is reaching to 10BTC and do the same again.

Is this a good advice?



This is something everyone has to decide for themselves and depends on a few things.Some people just want to profit from BTC in short term,others have plan to hold for long time.If you have 10BTC and need money for something there is nothing wrong to sell 5BTC or more/less amount.

If you invest in BTC, holding is always risky in terms of price,you can lose money or you can profit from that.For people who can not live with such risk BTC is not option for investing,better buy gold or something like that.

I am not sure what you want to say with convert 5BTC in fiat,when you sell them you have only left 5BTC-you think to sell that remaining 5BTC when they double price or what?
15098  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Stolen or lost BTC with Electrum Wallet on: December 29, 2017, 11:39:21 AM
If the wallet is download from official site then we can conclude that problem is not in fake wallet.What is most likely that you have some keylogger/malware on your PC which is wait to steal something from you,and your Electrum seed is became a valuable target.

From where you send those 2 transactions,desktop wallet or online/exchange?Since other wallets on your PC are intact maybe hacker is just targeting BTC and not altcoins you have in other wallets.

However if you 100% sure you have original Electrum and this is happen,you have something bad on your PC.Make a backup of everything you need and format disk-make a clean install of OS.Use proven antivirus+firewall and Malwarebytes Premium,never click on suspicious links or download unverified things.People who use cryptocurrency have become valuable and easy targets these days-hardware wallets,or cold storage(paper wallets) are the only way to prevent this sort of thing.

It seems to be working fine.
I see the right Transactions but the Balance zero as it still synchronizing.
Thanks again

You're welcome Smiley

Since blockchain size is almost 150 GB it now only depends on your internet speed to wallet is fully sync.Regarding private keys HCP gave you an answer and I hope you import all your private keys so you can get control on total amount of BTC you have in MultiBit wallet.
15100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BCH VS BTC FEES. on: December 29, 2017, 10:43:51 AM
Only a few days ago I claim my BCH using ElectronCash wallet and I decided to test speed of transactions and fee.I have to admit I was really surprised when wallet is set recommended fee at only 2260 satoshi so I try to doubling this amount to 5000 satoshi and send transaction.First confirmation is under 1 minute which is incredibly fast if we compare it with BTC.I thought I might have had luck so I try few more transaction with same fee and all are get first confirmations under 1 minute.

I think some things are obvious here,and even I am not supporter of BCH the fact is that fee in BTC are astronomically high in comparison with BCH.Only way to solve this is Lightning Network,but no one ever knows when it will become available.
