They are not the only lost coins.
Lost coins are those who have been burned using OP_RETURN and those who have not been claimed by the miners as the block reward.
Those coins that have been sent to the burn addresses have been probably lost, but we can't be 100% sure of that. In theory, it's possible that someone has the private key of burn addresses.

Casinos should have a profitable business in the long run (if everything goes well) and after they make some profit, they will be able to pay the winners with losers money.
This doesn't mean they can launch their business without any bankroll. They must have some money for paying the winners unless they want to scam the players.

You are right. Coinomi is close-source.


You are probably talking about the vulnerability sending users seed phrase to google servers.
WARNING - Coinomi Wallet CRITICAL Vulnerability Made Me Lose My Life Savings

Now, it's possible that a participant wins more than once. It wasn't like this before the changes.

Edit:
I found another bug.
When I save the link, it doesn't save the target block. It's set to the current block again when I open the saved link.

It's not.
pooya87 already answered my question correctly. The second argument is used for having a seed phrase from a different wordlist.
I was able to generate a seed phrase with spanish words using make_seed(128,"es","standard").



Thank you pooya87.

I haven't ever heard of a blockchain explorer doing that and I doubt there is any. Even if there's a blockchain explorer doing so, it can't do that for all addresses.
There is no way to know what addresses have been derived from the same private key unless you have the private key or there's a transaction made from one of those addresses.

There was another user promoting the same wallet malware today. (See the report made by Lafu.)
Both swami84 and bvalis should be banned, because they shared a malware. Both of them woke up on January 18 and are now probably controlled by the same person.

I just tested the tool with some random inputs and it seems that everything is working well.
There's only a small bug. If you set the number of winners to 50, only 1 winner will be selected.

That's the number of bits of entropy.
With 128 bits of entropy, you will have a 12 word seed phrase. For example, you can change the 128 to 256 to have a 24 word seed phrase.

For generating a legacy wallet, you need to go to "console" tab and use the following command.


If you don't see "Console" tab, click on "View" at top of the window and select "Show Console".

LoyceV is right about different chances of winning.

Assume that there are 10 participants.

The participant number 1 wins the game if the outcome is 0, 10, 20, 30, ... 4090.
The participant number 2 wins the game if the outcome is 1, 11, 21, 31, ... 4091.
The participant number 3 wins the game if the outcome is 2, 12, 22, 32, ... 4092.
........
........
The participant number 10 wins the game if the outcome is 9, 19, 29, 39, ...., 4089

The participants 1-6 will have slightly bigger chance than participants  7-10.
The chance of winning for participants 1-6 will be  ⁴¹⁰/₄₀₉₆ and the chance of winning for participants 7-10 will be ⁴⁰⁹/₄₀₉₆

Prediction 2: $22,560.00

Just because a wallet is open-source doesn't mean it's trustworthy and you should use it. You should use the open-source wallet only if the code has been reviewed by enough qualified people and you are sure that there is no vulnerability.
Even if a wallet is open-source and is secure enough, it will take some time to be trusted by the community.

The website in question has been created only 130 days ago and I would never trust such a website.


They are impersonating www(dot)basefex(dot)com and they are definitely scammers.
As already said, don't deposit any fund or you will lose your money.

Stake your Bitcoin address here, so that you can use that for recovering your account in the case your account is hacked or you lose access to that for any reason.

Below is the guide on how you can sign a message.
How to sign a message?!

@Piesel Alt
I can't verify your message. What software do you use for signing message?

Due to the database leakage in the 2015 hack, theymos doesn't allow people to reset their password via answering the secret question.
For more information about this, you could visit the topic I already shared.

One way to prove your ownership of your account is to sign a message from an address which you have posted before in the forum and is obviously yours.
The recovery team surely has some other criteria to verify the claims. For example, they can check IP logs.

Any service asking you to make a deposit to be able to make a withdrawal is a scam.
With asking them to allow you to deposit smaller amount, you are actually trying to decrease the amount of the money they will steal from you. Whatever amount you deposit, you will lose all that.

It's possible that the hacker gain access to the email and then used the email address to access the bitcointalk account.
If you check the seclog, you will see that Piesel's password has been reset via email.

Thank you o_e_l_e_o for your great explanation.

My point was that the term "Time Locked Address" is a bit misleading. Isn't it?
For example, if you make such a transaction and I import the address derived from the public key into electrum, I won't see any transaction.

You are right. Advertisements are usually exaggerated.
If you buy 2500 FUN tokens, you will get only 1 free spin in the day 1. For getting 4 free spins, you have to hold your tokens for 360 days.
The statement should be "Hold 2500 FUN tokens for 360 days to get 4 FREE WOF" or "Buy 2500 FUN tokens to get up to 4 FREE WOF", to be more accurate.
