Maybe you know already: we have good coin and we have bad coin. While Bitcoin is very good coin, TRON is bad coin and here is why:

- TRON didn't achieve any additional technological advance compared to existing coin
- TRON is only launched because Justin Sun hates Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum
- Justin Sun failed to compete against Ethereum. Ethereum is much better, has much better technology and better developers
- Justin Sun just SHILLS his shitcoin TRON instead of implementing a better technology

Everyone should know, how fraudulent TRON really is.
Avoid bad coin like TRON.

Hey everyone! I've got $1000 to invest before the next bull market kicks in. Should I spread it across five different coins or go all in on just one? What are your top picks for either strategy?

Investing in Altcoins had been what so many invested have been looking at these period. Believing that bitcoin's bull run will surely influence the price of the altcoins and hive them massive gains. Literally if bitcoin rises altcoins follow suit but this is the only reason i see that makes potential investors to invest in Bitcoin. There is no other interest as they feel its unsafe to store value or wealth, cant be used for p2p transactions and it cant be trusted to hodl for long. If you think there is any other reasons that makes investors put their money in altcoins feel free to share. I would love to know.

To the rest of us in the forum, I am to let you know that if you have created a crytop wallets before probably during your ignorant eras such as when you never had the security knowledges of Bitcoin and your wallet, which you may have in anyway exposed your private and security phrases to others due to your previous lack of crypto and wallets understanding, you are advised to dump the wallet and creat a new wallet with a newly generated private and security phrases which you can now keep carefully and privately to your best of safe mode.
I brought this up here because lot of individuals has long time ago installed the crytop wallets to their devices even before they are embracing the crypto sphere, they had then loose guarded their private phrases but due to the fact they could remember the wallets passwords and have access to the wallet, they feels so safe in using the same wallet at once they have embraced the crypto industry.
Having your wallets passwords in gaining access to your wallet is the ultimate of ownership of your wallet but your Private keys phrases matters because you one can who is knowledgeable about those private phrases has the access command to retrieve your wallet to themselves anytime any day.
So, be concious about your wallets privacies.
Meanwhile some persons may have been putting you through the thoughts about Bitcoin whom may have helped you in creating a crytop wallets during a learning era about the coins which probably they may have got access to your private phrases without your knowledge then. My advice at a case like this is that at your readiness of Investing your funds in the crytop, do not use the wallet, you are free of charge to create a new wallet with a generated private phrase keys which can personally be to yourself all alone but depending on how careful you could be about your privacies.

Just hodl
Avoid ads
Avoid fake wallets
Avoid fake exchanges
Avoid airdrops, or at least learn how to know the fake ones. I avoided airdrops.
Avoid phishing or attacks, through email, message or call.
Anywhere you see pay 2 to get 4, it is a scam
Use cold storage for huge amount
I prefer to use passphrase, against offline attacks
Avoid clipboard malware and malware generally
Avoid sending to attacker's address in address poisoning

These last ones are shocking:
Avoid trading. Use the amount of money that you can afford to lose for trading.
Also the same to gambling.

I was going through some articles and comments on twitter and this question struck me so I decided to bring it up here .
There are some drugs that are quite medicinal and has serious effects on human beings especially when misused or abused . But the idea of people taking high level of hard drugs is what I can’t place my thought on because it makes feel that everything is not normal on them .

However, people go to grave yards to exhume the bones of dead bodies just to collect their bones grind it and smoke it , some will also go to the length of breaking sucker pit just to inhale the substances there for a reason I don’t know . So please I now ask again, is there any benefit of taking hard drugs ?

Like the title says what are the rules. If I miraculously got a private key to a wallet that had Bitcoin in it but was not mine originally then does that mean I now own the wallet like finders keepers and is there any legality issues with this in the usa,uk,canada,south america. Is this more of a morality should you or should you not.

Hey, thank you. i wish i was on the list

It is a lot harder than I expected.

Sooooooo im thinking of buying myself a good ASIC miner or any Bitcoin miners at around 3-5k USD and ive been searching for a while now but my i just had a recent thought of the prices. Im aware of the halving coming in the next 100 days or so. But generally speaking since the Block Reward will be cut in half to 3.125 BTC, wouldn't it affect the price of the Bitcoin miners in general?

Im speculating either that, the price will go higher since China was making a slow comeback into the mining scene impacting the price and that the community of Bitcoin will most likely attract a lot of interest in the mining scene as the value and the ear to ear talks of Bitcoin spreads around more and more around geeks and people.

But im also wondering wouldn't the price drop and it would be a good time to buy those miners then? Since the Block reward isn't the same it would require people to get better miners to mine the same amount they use to before? Or just the fact that in general every halving we tend to have new miners made for to stay efficient as the miner diffuclty keeps rising up?

 
Let me know what you guys think i sincerely am looking forward to buy myself a miner just don't know when is the time! 

Electrum is a SPV wallet and it does not need 1 hour to sync the wallet and scan your transaction history. With good Internet connection, it can finish after a few seconds.

1 hour is only if you have very poor Internet connection that connect and disconnect repeatedly and you barely have your wallet connect to Internet and Electrum servers.

If you see a green icon at the bottom left, it connects to Electrum servers and I am quite sure you will see your transaction history and balance within several seconds.

Import the seed phrase on Electrum.

To import the seed phrase on desktop Electrum: name your wallet or go for default wallet name and then click on next and follow this:

Standard wallet -> I already have a seed. Enter your seed phrase and click on options -> select BIP39 seed phrase and click on next. Select from these derivative paths:

Legacy for addresses that starts from 1
Native segwit for addresses that starts from bc1

Click on next. Input your password that you want for the wallet and you are done.

On mobile Electrum. After you input your seed phrase, you will not see 'options' at the right lower side where you input the seed phrase, but you will see 'Electrum' at the upper right corner. Click on it and select BIP39 to proceed.

Note that Blockchain.com wallet is a close source wallet and it would be better to generate new seed phrase on open source wallet directly. Electrum wallet is an open source wallet.

Did you try to check the address balance with Bitcoin block explorers?

20 confirmations so that address should have a balance with that transaction value plus what you have in it before that transaction from Exodus wallet.
If balance is shown on block explorers, you don't have to worry because issue is from Blockchain.com wallet.

A similar guide like Charles-Tim.

How can I migrate from blockchain wallet to Electrum?
Importing your private keys, seeds into Electrum.

Choose BIP39 after enter your wallet seed.

You should verify your Electrum wallet too.
