Doesn't Coinbase put purchases through credit cards on hold for two days? I remember reading somewhere that they did it to protect themselves against payments with stolen credit cards.

Actually, I use a debit card, but it shouldn't make any difference. The last time I used their service was about a year ago so it might have changed.

What I usually do to not get caught up in a situation where I want to benefit from a price drop but have to transfer fiat to my exchange account, is prefund my exchange account and just have it sit there. I'm not too concerned with the fiat sitting in my exchange account without being used, but do understand if others aren't comfortable doing.

That's a good approach, but some people don't have that much spare money. I prefer to have as much money as possible available at all times.

I figure you're trying to redistribute the incoming from just one node across many channels?
That's something for the Lightning Network itself to figure out, but from what I've seen earlier, it didn't use multiple channels on my side.

Payments can't be split automatically across multiple channels, yet. The only thing one can do is try sending a few smaller transactions but that might be too costly and take a lot of time.

Jeżeli chcesz, żeby kanał wyglądał bardziej profesjonalnie, to radziłbym przerzucić filmy z Fortnite na inny kanał. Co do jakości dźwięku, nie można się przyczepić.

Czym ten Twój kanał wyróżnia się wsród setek innych serwisów związanych z kryptowalutami?

Pozwól, że ja odpowiem. Filmami z Fortnite.

OK, I don't totally understand that, but your comments educated me a little bit and I appreciate it.  For other coins, I'm not sure there's an option to download an ARM format, but maybe I'll take a look around at some wallet sites and see.  

I have just checked PIVX for you and it does have ARM pre-compiled version of its software. The following quote from this website might help you understand it a bit.

ARM and Intel chips have different processor architectures and instruction sets. This means that you can’t run an application compiled for the Intel architecture on an ARM computer, and you can’t run code compiled for ARM on Intel computers.
1745  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Question about getting a bitcoin/altcoin wallet onto a Raspberry Pi on: July 07, 2019, 06:03:50 PM
Or is it possible to use the Raspberry Pi browser to download whatever wallet I want?  I feel stupid asking this, but I'm really not familiar with the fundamental workings of the Raspberry Pi.  

Every Raspberry Pi is powered by an ARM CPU which means that software has to be slightly modified. For example, if you look closely at the Bitcoin Core download page, you can see that there are three different downloads for Linux. Raspberry Pi owners should download the ARM one. Also, if you decided to compile it yourself, you would have to use a dedicated guide which would instruct you how to download ARM compatible software.

Does anyone have an idea about Trezor accepting new translation requests on their Crowdin? I've sent a request and emailed them as they requested but still no responses for a few months now.

The last update of the translation project from SatoshiLabs was almost 6 months ago. It looks like they have given up. Most of the translations were complete, but some users started to paste translations from Google Translate and some entries were erased (even the correct ones).

If at all possible do not run it on the SD card. Get an external drive and make it an SSD

Despite of decreasing SSDs prices, they are still quite expensive if you compare them to HDDs (especially used ones). If he is willing to use a Raspberry Pi then he probably wants to spend as little money as possible. Also, high capacity SD cards are way more expensive than SSDs. Thank you Dave for warning us against something that nobody would do.

Feature suggestion: offer the sale of gift codes/vouchers redeemable for Trezors. Such codes could be given out in contests or raffles, removing the concern that a device may have been tampered with, especially if it's being sent by someone lacking a good reputation.

I reached out to their support on the official Telegram channel and it turned out that this feature was probably on their roadmap. Anyway, Trezor employee promised to forward your suggestion to the marketing department.



1749  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase on: July 07, 2019, 08:32:17 AM
I would recommend just using a Bank transfer for your transactions to save money on fees and for safety.

Most people who decide to pay with their credit/debit card do so because such transactions are instantaneous. Time is precious when the exchange rate changes suddenly. 3% is not that much; some Bitcoin ATMs charge way more.

Would you like to contribute to the network by running your own node? Maybe you are having a hard time choosing the right wallet? You have just found the right place!

I am willing to help anyone who is interested in trying out the Lightning Network. Don't miss the Lightning hype train Cool

Make sure to take a look at the following threads before contacting me!

The Lightning Network FAQ,
Basics of the Lightning Network,
Electrum Lightning Network walkthrough.

I am also running my own c-lightning node. I can consider founding a dual-funded channel if you contact me beforehand.

My service is free of charge.

You can contact me on Telegram (@BitCryptex), send me a private message or an e-mail (bitcryptex@protonmail.com), or reply to one of my threads.

When it does come back, pretty easy to move it off ? 

Yes, the remaining coins minus closing fee will be credited to your Bitcoin on-chain address. You will be able to move those coins easily. You should be able to see the remaining amount of blocks if you click on the channel. A block is mined approximately every 9-10 minutes.
1752  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Help moving BTC out of a LN channel through the eclair app needed on: July 06, 2019, 05:43:29 PM
Usually funds get stuck for 48 hours and then come back to you.

Actually, it's not that simple. In previous versions of Eclair Mobile, the default value was 144 blocks (~1 day). However, since Eclair Mobile introduced payment receiving, this value has changed. Refund delay for local uncooperative close is 720 blocks (5 days) and 2016 blocks (2 weeks) for remote one. If OP enabled receiving payments over the Lightning Network then he will have to wait 5 days; not only two.

Edit: This only applies if the other party is offline for some reason.
1753  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase on: July 06, 2019, 04:57:17 PM
-snip

I googled this issue and it looks like only few users were affected so far. My bank forces me to authenticate via SMS and web password when paying for something via credit card above certain limit.

To me it looks like they are the issue. First time buying bitcoin and the last.

If they are the issue then why would it be your last time? Next time, use a different service, for example, Changelly or try looking for a Bitcoin ATM if you live in a big city. I personally use the latter and it has never caused any trouble.
1754  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase on: July 06, 2019, 04:34:27 PM
Anyone else out there been over charged by Coinbase? How did it come out for you?

In what situation were you overcharged? Exchange fee? Transaction fee? If the latter then it's quite common among exchanges and online wallets. 1 sat/byte is now enough for a transaction to confirm in one block. I have used their service twice and had no problems.
1755  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Raspberry Pi 4 performance on: July 06, 2019, 04:25:51 PM
Dont got one yet but the raspberry pi can handle 1gib connections and with the 4gib of memory it will boil down to your hard disk speeds.

CPU was the biggest bottleneck when it came to synchronising with the network. Depending on the task, the CPU seems to be up to 3 times faster which is a huge improvement. No one has tested it yet with Bitcoin Core.
1756  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: NEED HELP electrum on: July 06, 2019, 04:09:19 PM
I am using the old version (2.8.3) and I think I have overwritten my btc receiving adress by pressing on new. Because in my requests list is written down a different btc adress than the one I've sent it to.

It's a security enhancement. Addresses change in order to improve your privacy. You can re-use them as you want but it is not recommended.

But how should I send it to the new adress if the transacted bitcoins aren't listed on my account

Your wallet might not be able to synchronise with the network due to bugs which have been already patched. Update Electrum and try again.

1. "Dla płatności poniżej progu pyłu, Sebastian, Janusz i Karyna mogą stracić środki bez ich winy."

Prawda. Takie wyjścia są uznawane za nieopłacalne i zostają dodane do opłaty za transakcję. Wraz z rosnącą ceną BTC, próg pyłu może zostać obniżony. Raczej tak małe płatności nie zdarzają się, w szczególności na mainnet. Najmniejsza kwota jaką widziałem na pewnej stronie to 1000 satoshi.

4. "Tarcia z warstwy pierwszej L1 mają wpływ na interwymienialność i prywatność na warstwie drugiej L2; monety mają wartość-zależną-od-pozycji [wartość monet na dużym hubie o dużej płynności jest większa od wartości monet na małym hubie – przyp. tłum.]

Konflikty na głównym łańcuchu mogą mieć wpływ na wszystkie warstwy. Wątpię, żeby w najbliższym czasie nastąpił rozłam łańcucha na taką samą skalę jak Bitcoin Cash. Nie jestem w stanie wypowiedzieć się dokładnie co do prywatności. Nawet jeżeli ktoś zna pochodzenie monet na głównym łańcuchu, to ta osoba nie będzie w stanie śledzić transakcji odbywających się na Lightning Network. Monety będące podpięte do dużego huba magicznie nie zyskają na wartości. Czy z 0.005 BTC zrobi się 0.01 BTC? Nie.

Trezor team responded to these findings in March. They have been aware of the attack since designing Trezor. Using a passphrase has always been recommended and it can protect anyone from any kind of physical attack*. Some of you might argue that recommending using a passphrase is not an appropriate solution. Convenience comes at a cost.

This being said, in combination with strong passphrases and at least the basic operational security principles, even the physical attacks presented by Ledger cannot affect Trezor users.

*except for $5 wrench attack
1759  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor using a usb hub on: July 04, 2019, 08:02:52 PM
You should not use a USB hub. I have seen a few messages on their Telegram channel indicating that the device won't be recognized properly.

Watchtowers - they will be responsible for taking care of people attempting to cheat while the other party is offline.

This feature is now available in Lightning Labs' implementation of the Lightning network. Currently, only altruist watchtowers are available. What are they? This kind of watchtowers doesn't take a cut if one party attempts to cheat; all funds are returned to the victim. Reward watchtowers should be available in the next release.
