That should work... Do realise your node will start downloading all blocks

make sure your indentations are correct... Tab =/= space
As for writing to a file...
file= open("outputfile.txt","a+")
file.write("key %s\r\n" % firstline)
file.close()
I'll be heading home for the day, if you have more questions... Don't hesitate to ask them, i'll be answering them tomorrow (or somebody else will probably help you out in my absence)

in python, that's relatively easy... I wrote this code from memory (and copy/pasted 2 lines from the source i mentioned below), it should work, but typos might happen firstfile= [line.rstrip('\n') for line in open("textfile_containing_first_list.txt")]
secondfile= [line.rstrip('\n') for line in open("textfile_containing_second_list.txt")]
for firstline in firstfile:
if firstline in secondfile:
print(firstline)
part of the source : https://qiita.com/visualskyrim/items/1922429a07ca5f974467 (i was to lazy to write a loop over a filehandle from memory) |

It is legit, which does not mean that it can't turn into a scam later on,... It can be used by scammers, it can be used by phishers, it can close your account, it can freeze your funds, it can be hacked, it can go bancrupt,... but for now (afaik) it's legit... Only use exchanges you trust, investigate before using them, and only keep your funds on an exchange for as long as you need to complete the trade... Always store your funds in a wallet for which you're the only one in complete controll of your private keys! |

Hate to be that guy, but I don't see any real news regarding the topic. I'm not a big fan of trusting random people on social media to get my news from (even if the mainstream media can't always be trusted)
Anychance you have a reputable news company, even one in Belgium which is reporting on this issue?
I speak dutch, and i did a quick google search... Ended up on sites like this one: https://www.bruzz.be/brussel-kiest-2018/partij-islam-haalt-nergens-verkozene-2018-10-15 or on wikipedia https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_(politieke_partij) (and a bunch of other sites that tell basically the same thing) For those that do not wish to use google translate, the TL;DR; version is: - There is a political party called "Islam" in Belgium - They want to install an islamic ruling, and Sharia - In 2012 they tried to gain votes in 3 of the most muslim-centralised cities in brussels, they only got 2 seats in the city's council. This means they had nothing to say even in those 3 cities they tried to infiltrate - In the last elections in 2019 2018 they even lost these 2 seats, and they are now a non-issue EDIT: Fixed a typo |

It turned out well but some aspects I think were missed
Are you telling me you've watched the 44 minute movie in 3 minutes 19 seconds, since that was the time from the moment the OP created this post untill you've posted your review  As for the movie itself, it's a bit slow for me... I've watched the first couple of minutes and then became bored and did something else. |

I think the problem here is the fact you use google translate.
After reading your posts, i think what you're actually trying to say is:
You're a developer/admin who is going to launch a lottery site that's provably fair because you'll use the hash of a future block in order to pick your winner. You'll accept all kinds of altcoins as payment for this lottery.
I'm no gambler, so i probably won't use your site, but if you want to promote your lottery game on this forum, it might be a good idear to contact an established, on forum, escrow to hold the lottery's funds...
IF you create an appealing lottery site with a low house edge, provably fair, and all funds escrowed by somebody trusted on bitcointalk, you might gain some business here.
Good luck!

Edit: Also, I suppose it does not matter if there is BTC in there, considering I do not have the passphrase. Man that would be a kick in the face if I found coin in the wallet.
If you have *any* idear what your password *might* look like, you can always try to setup btcrecover: https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecoverMind you, this will ONLY work if you have a clue what your password will more or less look like (for example, if you know you only used upper/lowercase letters and numbers, and always create passwords that are 5 - 10 letters long, and you're pretty sure you always use a date in your password => you might have a shot at bruteforcing the password, eventough it might take a very long time) |

Next to the tips others have already given, it *might* also be a reasonable idear to add your attacker to your trustlist, preceded with a "~". At this moment, while you both are new to the forum, this doesn't matter the slightest bit... But rejecting him/her from your trustlist will make sure that you indicate to the forum that you don't trust any ratings left by this individual, and you would not like to see him end up in DT. It's a longshot that this will ever happen, and if it does it's defenately not sure that your rejection will prevent him from ending up in DT, but i'd still do this out of principle.... Just in case. Only do this if you don't trust the ratings left by your troll tough  So, in your case, go to "profile" => "Trust" => "Trust settings" Add ~Trollname in the form, and click on "update". |

You will not be able to have all the private keys since most of the keys are private, and the mentioned services are just for spamming with viruses.
It's perfectly possible to generate a private key that was previously generated by somebody else. Case in point: brainwallets... There once was a website that would allow you to generate a private key that was directly derived from a passphrase you entered. After a while, a white hat hacker proved that, using a simple dictionary attack, he was able to generate a lot of "existing" private keys, whose public key hash (addresses) were still funded with unspent outputs. I think the problem here is that people's minds are just not capable of understanding big numbers. Eventough the keyspace is not infinite, it is sooooo big in reality it's impossible to actually generate and scan the complete keyspace. People see numbers like 2 256 private keys that result in 2 160 addresses and think "hey, that's a number i can actually read, so there must be a program that quickly loops trough those keys and prints the ones whose public key hash is still funded". In reality, however, 2 256 is a number sooooo big, that this task is simply not possible. All sites like keys.lol are practical jokes. If you read the code pooya87 has posted, the joke becomes obvious: depending on keyPerPageCount, pageNumber can be as large as 2 256 Let's post some theory here... It's an absurd simulation that tries to make you see how unfeasible the discussion actually is... If you had an ASIC that (instead of creating hashes) generates private keys, and your asic generated at 100 Tk/s, your ASIC would generate 100000000000000 keys per second. Let's say you'd have 100 of those ASICs, generating 10000000000000000 keys per second... It would take those ASICs 3671743063080802746815416825491100000000000000000000000 years to generate the complete keyspace. I've googled around, and found this bloke who was optimising random string generation on an i5 cpu. His original program created about 6000 random strings per second... People in his thread optimized his code and were able to generate a bit more, but no-one was able to generate more than 10000 strings per second... So, even the story with 100 ASIC's that were built for key creation is completely absurd. I don't think you'll ever be able to build a farm that generates 10000000000000000 keys per second, and even if you do, the earth will be long gone before they even scan 1% of the keyspace... |

--snip-- So overall, the service is good and reliable, and for sure will continue using it, but the usability improvements would be really helpful That's well and all... And it's true i haven't seen scam reports about this service so far, and that's a good sign... However, a long time ago i got payed by jambler to review their service, here's my report: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5140688.msg51237562#msg51237562The thing is, it seems like the jambler site admin didn't follow any advice i've given them... The site still uses cloudflare's MITM SSL, security headers are still missing, google analytics are still used, cookies are still missing flags,... Even worse, it seems components like jQuery have not been kept up to date, and are now lagging behind, exposing potential vulnerability's... I have no quarrel with the site admin, it seems he's trying to run an honest business (so far), and i've analysed one of their outputs and it seems (at that time at least) he was telling the truth about their mixing algo... However, the security of the actual site is not up to par, so i'd never consider to actually use this site untill these issues are fixed. At this moment, using jambler defeats the purpose of using a mixer... Why use a mixer if cloudflare and google are able to track every action you perform on their clearnet site? |

It looks like a ponzi... I personally would not invest anything with this site, defenately not ~$5000. However, it is just my gut feeling based on a long experience reading and having discussions with victims of ponzi's... I don't have any hard evidence. The red flags (for me) - Hidden whois info
- unrealistic profits (if it's to good to be true, it usually is)
- typical ponzi scam layout and wording

Thank you for the answer. I admit I didn't really quite understand everything needed for a person to get the tx confirmed, but I understand that there is still a possibility, and because of that possibility, it could be worth just sending a transaction that's 0 fee you don't need to confirm in 1 month, and see if someone will take it.
Do those miners set it up like that on purpose I wonder?
Well... I wouldn't count on it... If you just create a 0 fee transaction, it'll allmost certainly get rejected by the nodes you are connected to if you try to broadcast it trough them, or relay it to them. If you find a single node that still accepts a 0 fee transaction, odds are it'll just stay in the mempool of that single node untill it gets pruned after a couple of days since the odds are big this 0-fee-accepting node is only connected to nodes that reject 0 fee transactions... What i meanth is that if you want to create a 0 fee transaction and even have a very small chance of getting it confirmed, you'll have to find a "path" of 0-fee-accepting node(s) that lead to a 0-fee-accepting node that belongs to a miner... Only if you find such a path, you'll have a (very small) chance the miner will put your transaction into the block he/she is working on, and an even small chance the miner finds a valid blockheader... Finding 0-fee-accepting nodes is not easy to begin with... You can probably try to connect to as many nodes as possible and look at their versions, recent bitcoin core versions would have had to actively patch their node's code in order to accept 0 fee transactions (thus, the odds of them actually accepting said transactions is VERY small). Older core versions and alternative versions would (theoretically) have the highest odds of accepting 0 fee transactions. If you want to test out wether or not a node accepts your transaction, you'll probably have to create 2 nodes on 2 different machines, connect them both to the node you are testing. Then broadcast your 0 fee transaction to said node from your first node and see if the tested node broadcast the 0 fee transaction to your second node. If it does, at least you know the tested node RELAYS 0 fee transactions  Here's a small, non-technical, intersting reading piece about how transaction relaying works... It's interesting, but it does not offer a real "answer" in this discussion tough => https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Network#Standard_relaying |

It's good to see you taking your case to huobi, but like i said: do be carefull you're not attacking somebody innocent that has used a mixing service to regain some anonimity... I just read an interesting blogpost that might be relevant to this discussion, and the discussion link posted by Lucius ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5157460.0) https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2019/08/a-very-deep-dive-into-ios-exploit.htmlTl;DR; version => vulnerabilities that were fixed in iOS 12 allowed hackers to gain access to iphone devices that merely surfed to an infected webpage... Nothing else: just visiting an infected webpage was sufficient to give the culprits full access to your phone (emails, files, passwords,...). There is nobody that can ever be 100% sure they're running a completely clean system... This does NOT mean that we can be sure there are no vulnerability's on blockchain's side... Just that everybody saying that they're 100% sure their system was clean, eventough they used it to visit blockchain.info (so it's an online system) is misinformed. I know the OP never said he used iOS, but other platforms might have similar vulnerability's. |

I have actually did this a few times myself... Eventough i do take extra caution to only reward merit to a post i agree with if the post is also well-formed and informative... I'd never merit a one line "i agree"-type of post, even if i agreed with said one-liner...
It's a grey area, this is not why merits were introduced, but by making sure the post i merit is also decent quality, i don't think i'm doing anything wrong.

I remember Dab was talking about a way. Something like this:
There is an email service (I can not remember it), you write an email, schedule it to send it to whatever recipient you want. You will set a periodic timer too. Say every two weeks or months whatever. If it's every two weeks then after every two weeks this client will send an automatic email to you and you will have to open it and need to click certain button/link so that it resets for the next week. Now if this email is not opened and certain button was not clicked then the client will send whatever email you scheduled to sent to your recipient.
You can talk to your closest one that they will receive an email with instructions to access the Bitcoins you have in case you have an accident or a sudden death.
Doesn't sound like a solid idear to me as it is... The email service admin (or any tech guy that works for the email service, even as an intern or an outside consultant) might be able to open the scheduled email and read the instructions... Would be a great way to have your wallet drained if you ask me. Not to mention any security vulnerabilitys that would allow a hacker to get his hands on those scheduled mails. If you found a rocksolid email service like this, the least you should do is encrypt the instructions using a very strong pgp pubkey, for which the privkey is helt by your recipient... |

I've been using an online wallet and I don't have a problem.
These kinds of sites have their own security, you can always connect your email, some have their 2FA, some even require a phone number and I am wondering how can someone access your wallet without you being notified of that. Two points to consider, it is either your fault or the sites fault but I don't think the site will just let someone use your balance without logging to your account.
This seems to be a personal error, it is not possible that it was the fault of Blockchain. I also use Blockchain and there are no problems while using this wallet. Bitcoin will not move on its own if no one controls the address and most likely it is because of hackers. The money moves 2 times in two different addresses and stops at this address 1L5tLc6ayc3RXAyicHRv2c2uSNVJzoP4Yp That's a wallet belonging to Huobi... I'd contact their support department and ask them to look into this transaction... However, since the funds moved 2 times, it's perfectly possible the thief used a mixer... Just to summarise: 1FgpbfQ8nVMS523Btnyv3rxhF7YxtiEdr7 belonged to you... The thief robbed you in tx 4d412c58ab3dba8a138557e41e9ace1c8b36ee3d44107a930c8f31f0198d2b93 and funded what is most likely either his own address or an address belonging to a mixer => 1PdXxtu8Laq773RXT5q5pp6qtaG3HvSw2r The unspent output created by the thief was combined with unspent outputs funding the following addresses: 1MXVwghCaz7yPvuyJU35yQdQHnpA9ea8PA (0.06180723 BTC - Output) 1H6htL41r9v8nAAZdpmaxw35kyjCewS9um (0.04020064 BTC - Output) 1H6htL41r9v8nAAZdpmaxw35kyjCewS9um (0.35708617 BTC - Output) 1JHLWuWsDqYwxzrjYcxZ6K7Feiv5R9SyvF (0.03159732 BTC - Output) 1PdXxtu8Laq773RXT5q5pp6qtaG3HvSw2r (0.03435393 BTC - Output) 1DbovmqydEvgFjLPfA6brASV98cmEy8gy2 (0.13459853 BTC - Output) 1MXVwghCaz7yPvuyJU35yQdQHnpA9ea8PA (0.01590557 BTC - Output) 1Q2qYzdeqd1KJdRJwMBqjft9mnMzc98fdp (0.01895248 BTC - Output) 1M7T8LZeJopJMffYRcpvviFvb11eKMLb1j (0.03038733 BTC - Output) 1Q2qYzdeqd1KJdRJwMBqjft9mnMzc98fdp (0.00673544 BTC - Output) 1FWSCxbScSfwrdetudCqArD5VND71JfPiy (0.0296867 BTC - Output) 1Q7SmKLD5Vs597oBZBAaviSzTfLwkZbXLd (0.11753431 BTC - Output) to fund 1L5tLc6ayc3RXAyicHRv2c2uSNVJzoP4Yp 1L5tLc6ayc3RXAyicHRv2c2uSNVJzoP4Yp belongs to huobi... So somebody is exchanging those funds, either to other altcoins or to fiat... If huobi requires KYC, the police should be able to either find the thief, or the person who was unlucky enough to use a mixer and end up with the thief's funds after mixing... |

Sorry to butt in but does this mean that it is not possible at all anymore to get 0 fee transactions confirmed?
Because as user above puts it, you can possibly sign and broadcast the transaction, but since nobody will confirm it, it's just not worth to do it anymore? Why do people still try?
Somewhere around 2016-2017, i witnessed people creating 0 fee transactions and getting them confirmed. As long as a single miner runs an old node, a patched node or an alternative node (like btcd) that is configured to accept and relay 0 fee transactions, AND still uses the old, deprecated priority mechanism you can always try to setup a patched node and connect directly to this mining node, then create a 0 fee transaction and get it broadcasted to this miner's node... However, at this point in time, you'd need very specific and detailed info about which miners would be running such a patched and alternatively-configured node, my guess would be there aren't many of those miners left. And in the odd chance you do get a 0 fee transaction in his/her node's mempool, and your transaction has very high priority (and the miner still reserves a space in his/her block for high priority transactions), the miner would still need to find a block header whose hash is under the current target (ie solve the block). Odds are small, very, very, small... But i don't think they're absolute 0. |
