How long does it takes to become a legendary member?
-snip-
Well, the least activity required for legendary is 774. Which boils down to 56 activity periods of 14 points each (totaling 784 activity). If you register on the last day of an activity period you "safe" 13 days. If you bank a few posts you also get all 14 activity on the first day of the last period so you "safe" another 13 days. In total you need 758 days of consistant posting or 2 years and 28 days. The highest activity required for legendary is 1030. Which is 74 activity periods of 14 points each (totalling 1036). Again you can "safe" as above so a total of 1010 days or 2 years and 280 days.
-snip- Ok my bad shouldn't have mentioned a private area. If there is one I haven't been invited  . Maybe its because you talk too much? |

Can any one guide me how to encrypt my electrum seed and store it safely on my hard drive?
I already wrote it down but as safely also want to store it securly on my online PC so please someone guide me if there's a way to encrypt it?
-> https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/create a container, use a strong password, safe a txt file with the seed inside the container. |

Hi, I´m looking for some solution how to send BTC from selected adresses to another wallets. I could explain: In my wallet i have 20 adresses and I would have to send btc from adress 1 to some wallet, form adress 3 to some another wallet etc. I found this:
ADDRESS, 0.12345
ADDRESS, 0.12314
but I neet something like this:
My specific ADRESS, ADDRESS, 0.12345
My specific ADRESS, ADDRESS, 0.12314
etc.
Is it possible?
Thanks
Peter
Yes, go to Addresses, select the address you want to send from, right click it and select send from. IIRC you can also select multiple addresses. |

why you need the peer data to get the node, you can check them in the console, via getpeerinfo
getpeerinfo is just the connected nodes, the peers.dat has all known nodes. Did a quick search, but it seems you will need to read the source to understand the format as its bitcoin specific[1]. [1] https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=119525.msg1287284#msg1287284 |

I - personally - am pretty happy with it as its not flashy. The news tends to stay for a long time, so there is no real need to have a constant eye catcher IMHO.

Ahh I just had to wait. It took 45 minutes - but now it started without problems and synced. Thank you anyways  You should update to 0.12 regardless. On windows systems anti virus software can often find signatures of viruses in the blockchain data. The software will then lock the files, which will cause the bitcoin client to crash. There is a fix that comes with 0.12 as it stores the data obfuscated so the virus signatures (there are actually some in the blockchain, but they cant harm you) do not get detected. |

So Electrum seed is 128 bit
12 or 13 words
What are the chances that the same seed is not generated by someone else by mistake?
Its a 128 bit seed, so the chance is 1 in 2 128 or 1 in 3.402823669*10 38. Electrum seed just consist of English words . Don't you think it would be more secure to just use random letters?because either way we have to write it down.So what's the point of using English words?
The english words are just a different representation of the same thing. The words are the seed, but so is a 128 bit binary number. Its easier for humans to remember words than binary number. Mainly because we are used to use words while we only seldomly use binary numbers. Don't you think private keys genetation is more secure then seed itself? Even though seed contains other private keys.
So tell me the chances that someone else does not generate the same seed and end up stealing bitcoins?
A private key is a 256 bit number, so one might think its significantly more secure than a seed. However when creating an address the process involves a 160 bit RIPEMD-160 hash. Thus it is assumed that there are 2 96 (because 2 256/2 160 = 2 96) private keys that can spend coins on a given address. Another aspect of private key security is that the underlying algorithm (ECDSA) only offers 128-bit security for a 256-bit. There are no shortcuts AFAIK to the seed. Using a seed is in the same ballpark of security than just randomly generating keys. A seed however has the advantage that private keys derived from it are deterministic and thus only a one time backup is needed. |

I just took a look at my address transactions and found that the older ones were having confirmations greater than 5000 while other was having even more that 6000. What is the use of having that much confirmations ??
well, it means it have been checked over and over by the network. But most transactions only need 2-3 confirmations, no one would wait that long for a transaction Shibashi Dogemoto's answer is correct. Its just how bitcoin works. I dont think anyway would ask for 6000 confirmations even for a deal regarding several 1000's of bitcoin. |

So yes I want to buy from overseas, and I need to use bitcoin. I never heard of it before this, so I went on youtube to learn how to use it. I found a video about using paypal to buy the bitcoin, and it said I have a $50 first time limit. Sooooo I need to learn the best way.
Edit: as my first post said, I want to send the total, and not $50.
Dont use paypal, use one of the large exchanges, like bitstamp, kraken, etc. Or buy locally e.g. via localbitcoins or mycelium (wallet app with the same name, allows you to make offers in your area). |

Hat sich mal jemand die Details angeschaut? Haben die "Stress-Tester" wieder ein bischen Geld zusammengekratzt bekommen?
Die normale Bitcoin Nutzung wird wohl kaum kurzfristig explosionsartig gestiegen sein.
Sieht auch nicht nach ner Explosion aus, es war nur n Neustart nötig. 40-50k sind eigentlich normal inzwischen.  |

Außerdem habe ich noch mal bei coinbase geschaut und ich habe auch nur 0.15xxx Btc überweisen.
Weiß nicht wie die 0.18 zustande gekommen sein sollen...habe Jaa auch nicht weniger auf meinem coinbase Guthaben.
Ok also hast du alles korrekt los geschickt, aber bei deinem Freund is nix angekommen. Was nutzt er den für eine Wallet? |

In 3 years, there will be 500,000 legendary members if the lower rank members keep on posting.
I doubt it, there are only so many even today. -snip- Keep in mind that also not everyone keeps posting. Some stop posting, some go insane, some get promoted to staff. |

Zur Zeit läuft es wieder etwas langsam mit den Bestätigungen  Ja: {
"size": 11076,
"bytes": 128250067,
"usage": 275590272,
"maxmempool": 300000000,
"mempoolminfee": 0.00001291
}
Wird wohl vielen so gehen.   |

but as i said the OP's situation is not a counterfeit tx and is just a slow to confirm tx, due to no fee
will it confirm or not ? Its difficult to tell, no fee TX have a hard time getting confirmed, but the input you used already has 35137 confirmations[1]. It might be enough to get the priority for the TX to get accepted without fee. The input is 244 days old and roughly 1/12 of a bitcoin. This gives you roughly 244/12 = 20 bitcoin days, where 1 is enough to get a confirmation without fee. I think this is mainly a problem of reaching more nodes, as e.g. blocktrail does not know about it yet[2]. [1] https://blockchain.info/tx-index/99821569/0[2] https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/4904c2aa6f0bedb71dedf7f7333e71377c3d910625f49b695e0c8bd6735c5926 |

The inputs are not use in confirmed transactions and in no other unconfirmed transactions either AFAIK. Maybe link the double spend you think you have found? Your links lead to addresses, which is where I found the unconfirmed TX I think OP is talking about. |

Ich kenn mich mit Coinbase nun gar nicht aus. Es sieht aber so aus als hätte lockept93 0.1518 BTC überwiesen und der Rest von den 0.18 BTC der nicht für die Gebühr benutzt wurde ist Wechselgeld. Ich weiß das man bei Coinbase den privaten Schlüssel nicht bekommt, aber soweit ich weiß teilt man seine Wallet auch nicht mit anderen Usern, die Bitcoin die man sendet kommen also schon aus Eingängen die man selber empfangen hat.
Er sagt aber, dass er 0.18 BTC seinem Freund ueberwiesen hat. D.h. das auch grob ~0.18 BTC bei dem Freund angekommen sein muessten und nicht 15% weniger. Tippfehler? [..]die untere mit dem Betrag 0.15xxx ist seine.
Wenn natuerlich nur die 0.15 BTC ueberwiesen werden sollten, dann landet vllt das Wechselgeld wieder auf einer Coinbase-Adresse und wird dem Account dann wieder gutgeschrieben??? Wobei ich auch keine Erfahrung mit Coinbase habe ...
Ich denke das ist am wahrscheinlichsten. Ma gucken was OP dazu sagt |

-snip-
he can do that until the owner spends those inputs and the transactions become invalid because they have already spent inputs (double spend)
-snip-
Without connections to miners its difficult to double spend a well propagated transaction. Since I (and possibly others) continuously rebroadcast it, its unlikely that other nodes will accept and relay a double spend. |
