Meni termin nažalost neće odgovarati. Prezauzet sam oko posla a onda mi slijede i poslovna putovanja u Skandinaviju pa u Njemačku. Nisam još te sreće kao dkbit98 da posjetim Dubai. Možda ako budem naporno radio do kraja godine i to dođe na red. Cool

I am glad that xLays is one of the two winners because their avatar was one of my two favorites for this contest. Like I said earlier, I wish the skull was centered perfectly in the middle for an even better overall impression, but nevermind. I have already updated the avatar and looking forward to how it will look once the Bitcointalk server does its thing.

Congratulations to all winners!

And secondly, I simply don't see the reason to make a website that shows their stuff is reproducible if they already have it on their wallet's GitHub page.
I would agree with you if BitcoinBinary only showed reproducibility information about Coldcard. But that's not the case. They show the same information about other open-source and reproducible wallet builds. Bitcoin Core is there, so is Wasabi, Blockstream, Sparrow, etc. That's why it's not only a website to show their software, but it's a part of it.

Let's put it this way. Imagine if I was the CEO of Trezor, and for some reason I wanted to run a website discussing and highlighting open-source hardware wallets produced and/or assembled in the EU. There is a list of every single brand except for Trezor, which is headquartered in the Czech Republic and thus belongs on the list. You would not find that weird? I would.
1844  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum-4.4.6 Released. Fixes several lightning-related security issues on: August 23, 2023, 03:46:13 PM
I wonder what they discovered and fixed, and how it could have affected the security of coins on the Lightning Network? We will see in 3 weeks. It will be interesting to see if the Electrum devs found these themselves or if it was reported to them using responsible disclosure. The security fixes according to the release notes are only for lightning use. Everything else is of secondary importance for this update.   
1845  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Ledger doesn't show transaction, it shows up in Electrum. What's going on? on: August 23, 2023, 03:36:44 PM
Make sure to update Electrum wallet with latest version, they often release fixes and updates for better compatibility with hardware wallets.
Electrum is a nicely built piece of software and works well together with a Ledger hardware wallet. Unless OP is using a really outdated version, regular updates aren't a must unless he needs a functionality that exists only in the newer versions. But if it's a minor update like from 4.4.1 to 4.4.6, there shouldn't be any problems with compatibility, particularly since the HW keeps all the keys in place (for now at least Roll Eyes).   
1846  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Let's talk about Reproducible Builds for Hardware Wallets firmware on: August 23, 2023, 03:28:15 PM
Sure, I just don't understand the added benefit of having a website saying 'we ran the CoinKite reproducibility script and it was OK' while actually being CoinKite themselves, when it's already on their GitHub.
I'm not alleging anything but it seems deliberate.
But wouldn't you say it would be weird the other way around as well? Imagine if they are running this site checking if builds are reproducible, and they have listed dozens of projects but left out Coldcard - a hardware wallet which has reproducible builds. I would find that weird, regardless of who is behind the site. Their connection to Coinkite is visible in the header.     
1847  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Let's talk about Reproducible Builds for Hardware Wallets firmware on: August 22, 2023, 06:40:02 PM
<Snip>
I understand what you mean, but the only important question is if the information posted on the site is 100% accurate and verifiable or not. In other words, is everything they say reproducible really reproducible and vice versa. At least they aren't hiding their connection with Coinkite. It is what it is. In theory, walletscrutiny could be sponsored or patronaged by someone as well, and they might be quiet about it.   
1848  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Foundation Passport Official Thread on: August 22, 2023, 06:32:16 PM
Do you know what is oldest Android version needed to run Envoy.
I tried on one older phone and I couldn't install it, and I even tried directly with .apk file, forced install but I could not open the app.
I don't think you will have success running it on an outdated Android OS. It requires Android 10 and newer according to the information available on the About page on the Play Store. You can check it here. Click on the arrow next to About this app and it will display the needed information.

Edit: Oops, seems like foundationdvcs was about 2 mins faster.
1849  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Unconfirmed transaction on: August 21, 2023, 08:13:40 PM
Your transaction is still about 30 vMB from the top, so you still have to be patient. Unfortunately, there is nothing else you can do. RBF isn't an option, you don't control the keys of the destination address, and there was no change that went back to one of your other addresses that you could take advantage of to perform a CPFP. If there was some change, a Child Pays For Parent transaction with higher fees could be used to boost the overall fee rate of both transactions.

Your best hope now is that the congestion drops of just enough to get your transaction confirmed. Alternatively, you'll have to keep an eye on the purging rate as nc50lc mentioned to cancel the transaction if Electrum and the chosen server allows it.

I have updated the API so that now the default color is black (#000)

Your OP should be already updated with black color
Thanks a lot! That helps immensely because now I don't have to make changes to every single line in the table to change the color. What remains now is to bold those sections I want to have in either red or green which will make things much faster for me.

Cheers!
1851  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Open Electrum Android App in READ-ONLY mode? on: August 21, 2023, 03:47:24 PM
Read-only mode or Watch-only wallet means you only can see your trasnaction history and balance. You create such wallet to follow up your wallet transaction, balance without needs to copy and paste your addresses to block explorers and check those details.
There is another useful use case of watch-only wallets. If they contain your master public key, which is the recommended way to create them and not mess around with individual public keys, you can also generate new receiving addresses for your wallet without having to power on or access your cold wallet.
1852  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Ledger doesn't show transaction, it shows up in Electrum. What's going on? on: August 21, 2023, 03:35:54 PM
I went into Electrum and tried creating a new device, connecting to hardware device, etc. But it says "no hardware device detected" even when the ledger is plugged in.
Your Ledger hardware wallet can't only be plugged in to your computer for it to connect with Electrum. You have to unlock the wallet with your PIN, and open the Bitcoin app. It's also important that you don't have Ledger Live open when trying to connect Ledger to Electrum or any other third-party software wallet that's connected to your hardware device. So close all other software wallets, unlock your Ledger, open the BTC app on it, and try to connect to Electrum then.
1853  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Does Electrum use Libbitcoin ? on: August 20, 2023, 11:08:47 AM
<Snip>
From all of the projects and services I mentioned in my previous post, I think the most popular brand is Edge Wallet. At least it's something I have heard of compared to many of the other names. But it's not known if the new and rebranded Edge wallet still uses/used Libbitcoin libraries in its more current releases. It's a multi-coin wallet with exchange, staking, and buy/sell options, making it most probably closed-source to check anything.
1854  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: The story of Betnomi.com (Exit Scam) on: August 20, 2023, 08:04:59 AM
I simply wanted to do the same checking process on my Ledger that comes as a prize for the BCA award.
I guess it’s a sensible idea being ultra paranoid toward a customised device that Betnomi knew was directed to a generic “well known user” of the forum.
I don't disagree with that, and you should check if for your own safety, especially after what is happening with Betnomi now. When you say "customized" and "tempered with", I thought you already saw or noticed something being off. But it seems to be just a hunch or a possibility, and you haven't actually found or checked for anything malicious yet.

I am personally not a big fan of avatars resembling flags. That, therefore, excludes some of the shortlisted participants.
From those that remain, I like the following two the most.

- The third entry by cafter.
- The second creation by xLays with one suggested modification. I would prefer if the skull & swords image would take central position. The horizontal line could be made smaller and moved further to the right.
1856  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: unauthorized transactions on: August 20, 2023, 07:35:54 AM
I am guessing you were using the desktop version of Electrum. Who else from those close to you has access to your computer? I know people don't want to consider that but you shouldn't dismiss anything straight away.

If I was sitting at your computer where you have your Electrum wallet, how difficult would it be for me to access your wallet and take some coins if I wanted to?
Is your OS password-protected? If so, how complex is the password and who knows it?
Is your Electrum wallet file encrypted? Same question as above, is it a complex password and does anyone else know it?

How would you assess your ability to remain safe on the internet?
Would you know how to recognize a scam, a fake wallet, a phishing site?

What activities do you use that computer for?
Do you receive and click on email spam? Download files with weird attachments promising monetary rewards, gifts, etc.? What about torrents, pirated software, porn, unsafe permissions via social media, etc.?

All these questions can also be directed towards other users of your computer.   
1857  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Ledger doesn't show transaction, it shows up in Electrum. What's going on? on: August 20, 2023, 06:44:35 AM
I then used the receive address that I got from BlueWallet to receive some bitcoin.
Did you at any time confirm that the receiving address on Blue Wallet is the same as the one displayed on the screen of your Ledger hardware wallet? Did Blue Wallet and Ledger request such address verification when you generated the receiving address?

The worst case scenario is if it's changed from your clipboard by a malware.
I doubt it's a clipboard malware. OP can see the transaction they made in their Blue Wallet. If it was a clipboard malware, the destination address would be something completely unrelated to any of their addresses.
1858  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Does Electrum use Libbitcoin ? on: August 19, 2023, 04:51:33 PM
I didn’t think electrum was affected since there were no threads here. However all the articles didn’t state which wallets were used by the dependency.
Some hints about wallets and partners are available on Libbitcoin's website. If you scroll down towards the bottom, you'll come across the "Projects using Libbitcoin" section. The website mentions several names there, although, there are surely more.

  • The first one, Chip-Chap used to be a Spanish crypto to fiat exchange. I said used to because the website isn't working now.
  • DarkWallet was a browser extension intended to become a privacy-focused wallet. It's been abandoned, though, and is no longer maintained.
  • Airbitz is now Edge Wallet. A multi-coin mobile wallet.
  • I am not sure about Joystream. Seems it was a video platform and a DAO.
  • Darkleaks was a black market where you could anonymously sell leaked and stolen data. It's dead now.
  • OpenBazaar is a decentralized crypto marketplace. Its website says a new version is coming soon.
  • CanCoin is an altcoin that seems abandoned. I am guessing they tried to build some kind of community of users, buyers, and sellers. If we only had a currency we could use for that kind of thing. Grin
  • Lastly, slur.io seems to have been a site to sell and obtain user data according to search engine results.
1859  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Unable to restore wallet on: August 19, 2023, 01:38:08 PM
If the passphrase only consists of one word as pooya87 mentioned, and it's a normal English language dictionary word, it should be fairly simple to bruteforce. It becomes much harder if it's not your typical dictionary word and special characters were used or numbers and upper/lowercase letters. 
1860  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Technical question about the transfer on: August 19, 2023, 12:40:30 PM
More information is needed from you OP to figure out what happened here or what most probably happened.

First of all, I have never heard of Binance converting any assets on their own. There is an option to convert your coins to BNB, but you have to do that manually. Binance doesn't do it themselves. Regarding the address being different than the one you copy/pasted, it could be proof of a clipboard virus. It's easy to check it you are infected with one. Copy any bitcoin address from your wallet and paste it somewhere. Now, compare the pasted address with the one you copied. If it changed to a different one, you have a clipboard malware on your system. If it's identical, you don't. Most of the withdrawals on Binance are surely automated, so I doubt someone replaced your destination address to steal $15 worth of an altcoin.

Now to the issue with the BTT not appearing in Ledger Live. We first have to figure out how you got a receiving address in Ledger Live if the coin isn't supported?! It doesn't make sense. I assume BTT is BitTorrent, right? If it is, Ledger supports two variants of this token.

The first one is a TRC10 token found on the Tron network. Ledger supports this token and the Tron network natively in Ledger Live. To receive BTT as a TRC10 token, you have to install the Tron app in Ledger Live and send the tokens to your Tron address. Is that what you did?

The second BTT token isn't natively supported by Ledger Live. Which means, you have to use a 3rd-party wallet and connect your Ledger with it. Based on the suggested wallets on https://www.ledger.com/supported-crypto-assets (MyCrypto and MyEtherWallet), it looks like this BTT variant is an Ethereum token, although it doesn't say that on the page. I don't know if BitTorrent has a mainnet, and if they do, why would Ledger work with MEW and MyCrypto for this wallet. Did you maybe send your transaction to this BTT version (let's call it that)?

What does the blockchain data show? Are the coins you sent from Binance still on the address that received them or were they moved elsewhere? Which blockchain is it?
While we are at it, can you paste here the website address from your browser history where you logged in to Binance and initiated the withdrawal?

OP's silence and the fact that he never returned might mean he understood he made a mistake somehow and gave up. Or it somehow worked out for the better in the end. The latter doesn't happen very often in crypto.
