I only have two Bitcoin wallet on my Android phone both of them works fine but I don't which is the best.

I'm talking about Electrum and schildbach wallet I never experience any issues yet but I mostly use Electrum on mobile the only downside of using Electrum on Mobile you can't able to sign/verify messages.

My goal is to monitor a few addresses but without using a third party service. How do some blockexplorers provide an API to watch addresses and notify you (Webhook) when funds are sent to or from the address if -walletnotify is not something one can use?


There is one tool that I know that you can use to watch addresses only if you are ok with email notifications?

Have you heard of Blockonomics watcher? Check this tool below

They also have API for wallet watcher check the API here

if I undesrtand well, two keys/BTC adress, but I might be wrong. For every BTC adress, one key is refered to as "PrivBase58" and another as "PrivHexBE". For instance, one PrivBase58 key starts with "5HsGCN...", and one PrivHexBE key starts with "06c1..

The PrivBase58 that start with 5 should be the uncompressed WIF key that you can import to Electrum.

I don't know what exactly text you copy/paste but if it's a WIF key it should work.
In addition to Charles-Tim's post above if you are confused about what to do you might need to follow this guide below

- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5236499.msg54126656#msg54126656

Take note since your PC is connected online that wallet is not safe anymore make sure to transfer it right away to a secured wallet or it would be better to sweep the WIF key to a new and secured wallet.

According to this GitHub issue below walletnotify is not possible on the watch-only wallet the result will return no details check the link for further details.

About how many addresses you can watch I think it's no limit maybe the crash happens if your PC can't handle many transactions while syncing so it also depends on the PC specs.
1665  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Why would someone rent hashrates to Nicehash or partner with Binance CM? on: March 26, 2023, 10:50:05 PM
There are many reasons why people choose to invest and Cloud mining than buying their own miners.

The first thing is the electricity rate if you have high electricity costs and own mining equipment you won't make any profit you won't make any profit because mining machines are power-hungry.

And the 2nd thing is people do not want to maintain them because they don't want much hassle maintaining them due to a lack of knowledge.

And there are lots of factors why people choose to buy hash rate than owning a miner like scalability and risk management, etc.

Actually, it's very simple to understand what are Bitcoin and the blockchain unless you want a technical side?

Bitcoin is just like a local currency like USD and the Blockchain should be where all transactions are recorded.
The only difference between the local currency and Bitcoin all transactions are private that only governments have access and the currency is much more stable compared to Bitcoin another thing is Bitcoin is decentralized meaning no one can control your own money.

About the technical side if you want to become a developer then check this link below

no visible burns... witch caps you are refering? the high voltage ones? or the ones near output terminals?

thanks

I'm talking about caps near output DC or some parts near DC output that might have some corrosions and rust that need to be cleaned with contact cleaner or any electronics cleaner.

Does it seem you found the culprit? MOSFET? Is the output gone or voltage drop after checking the MOSFET? You can desolder that part and check the MOSFET if it is short.
You can follow this guide here how to check short MOSFET.
1668  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is storing bitcoin is more secure in iPhone than in an Andriod phone on: March 26, 2023, 12:43:54 PM
Same here I don't think IOS is more secure than Android. Look IOS can still be phished and if the IOS is jailbroken it's prawn to any attack such as malware and viruses.
The same goes for Android if it's rooted. I use a Samsung phone until now I didn't experience any attacks all my wallets are separated and installed in the Knox folder which is secured and can be hidden.

Before when steve jobs are alive he said “We take privacy extremely seriously.” but they can't control apps that always ask for data location it all depends on the developer. Meaning there are still apps that can leak your data from your iPhone.

Blockchain.info is long gone since I think 2015/2016 and about logging in you need to provide the email that you use before but the problem is the password will not work even if you know the exact password.
You must recover it with your seed backup or restore your wallet with your wallet.aes.json file you can use the link below to recover the wallet.

1670  Other / Meta / Re: Why the forum didn't use the latest version? on: March 25, 2023, 12:30:13 PM
There is no reason to upgrade the forum to the latest version since theymos already handle all attacks before and fix all issues without upgrading to the latest version and the forum is already optimized. So I don't think the forum needs to be upgraded unless there is leaks/security breach that can't solve with the current version.
1671  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: PSU3300-3 PLUS red light on: March 24, 2023, 11:20:22 PM
hi,

even using the jumper with power supply outside, it should have output from 13v main circuit, and measuring with multimiter, there´s a short beetween +13v and GND,



According to your logs under PS yes there is a 16 error which is pointing to a short circuit.
Is the short circuit came from PSU? Disconnect the PSU to check it for short circuit and mostly capacitors or some burnt parts are common issue of PSUs.
1672  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: A virus infected laptop, how safe? on: March 24, 2023, 01:28:41 PM
If your laptop is infected with viruses do not trust that the hardware wallet can protect you from any virus attack even if they said it's protected and it's far from any attack there is still a possibility that the virus can hack your wallet not today but in the future, if hackers develop a virus that can hack your wallet due to some leaks.
Always remember technology and programs like viruses and malware are developing and they can evolve so make sure to use a device that you know is clean.
1673  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: My antminer T15 is in infinite loop. read! on: March 24, 2023, 12:21:39 PM
Logs show a lost fan so only 3 things that you can suspect are why it is always fan lost.

The fan that you replace is broken the 2nd one the terminal/port is damaged and the 3rd one is the control board.

Do you have a multimeter so that you can check if the terminal from control board to the fan has resistance because if it doesn't have resistance it means there is a connection problem?
You can fix it by replacing wires and port terminal only if you are sure the new fan is known working.

If this unit is t17 you can just bypass this issue by using BraiinsOS but your unit is not yet supported.
1674  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Stuck Bitcoin transaction on: March 24, 2023, 12:26:12 AM
Currently, the mempool is pretty congested so I don't think this will confirm today it would take days unless if the network transactions are decreasing or less congested.

Do you mind to check the history tab if you received this transaction? If there is a transaction under the history tab then right-click it and then you can select CPFP which is the only option to increase the fee as suggested above.

1675  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: PSU3300-3 PLUS red light on: March 23, 2023, 11:45:42 PM
If you could access the miner through a browser would you mind sharing the API logs here it can give us more insight into your miner's problem just put them inside the insert code tag so that it is easy to read?

What I see is that the PSU is not connecting properly or maybe it didn't give enough power when the hashboard starting to hash.
1676  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: My antminer T15 is in infinite loop. read! on: March 23, 2023, 10:52:23 PM
I changed the PSU and the loop stopped, and it turns on normally.. but it continued without mining because the "Fan lost" error remained.. I changed the fans and nothing works!

Have you replaced the fan with the same model? If it's a different fan it might be a compatibility issue.

Would you mind to check the control board fan terminals try to clean them with lacquer flo thinner or any board cleaner and then resolder them? Let's see if it solves your issue.
1677  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Suggest Online Shopping Sites That Accept Bitcoin Payments And Ships Everywhere. on: March 22, 2023, 11:57:13 PM
If you verified the Binance account then their Crypto Card might work but it looks like they do not support Nigeria because I can't find it in their supported countries?

How about Paywithmoon they said they support AliExpress.

Quote
Moon currently supports shopping on a limited number of sites, but soon you’ll be able to shop on any of your favorite e-commerce websites, like eBay, Ali Express and Target.

Or your last hope is to buy gift card as suggested above.
1678  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Sparrow wallet update 1.7.3 on: March 22, 2023, 11:36:24 PM
If excluding doesn't work I suggest switching to another AV like Kaspersky is a better choice because windows defender has many false negative detections it would be better to disable it and switch to AV which has updated database.

Which ".tmp" files are those?
The ones in appdata local temp folder which starts with "+JXF..." or the "hwi..." in Sparrow's data directory?


Based on the link posted by Mitchel its hwi with a .tmp extension its under this folder below

Code:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Sparrow\hwi
1679  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Sheepy - new cryptocurrency payment gateway on: March 22, 2023, 02:07:24 PM
It looks like they reduce the firewall rules and restrictions on their cloud flare account which is why it is now accessible. I tried to make an account and verify the email but my account is in testing mode after searching around why it's a testing mode I saw a tab "verify" that requires KYC.

It means that this payment gateway needs to be KYC verified before you can able to use their service which is risky if we share our documents with a months-old payment gateway.
The domain is aged but the website itself is pretty new and it doesn't have any reviews yet and they only support API unlike BTCpayserver.
1680  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Passphrase recovery with Btcrecovery on: March 22, 2023, 01:33:38 PM
I tried it anyway and it had crashed when I woke up, lol.

If you tried it on Windows it crashed while running it in a few hours maybe it crash because you didn't disable the hard disk sleep or anything that could interrupt the software from running. You might need to install dot net core according to their guide.

FinderOuter is great tool/software and more user-friendly. But with lack of GPU support, btcrecover is better choice on most cases.

That's the only downside about this tool but they are planning to add support GPU on version 2.0 according to their roadmap. The only good thing about this tool it's easy to use compared to BTCrecover/Hashcat.
