2121  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Is Ethspro.com a SCAM? Unable to withdraw USDT on: October 09, 2022, 09:16:25 AM
Any ideas on the next steps?
The next step is to learn from your mistake and what happened.
Don't trust everything you read or hear, especially when it comes to messaging applications like tinder and telegram. Always, do your own research before using any service.

Edit:
I just visited the website in question and noticed something really funny.
Look at the following image. All the users are buying and selling whole bitcoins and no one trades less than 2 BTC.

How did you find this website?
I wouldn't trust a website which has been created only 96 days ago.

Further, there is no TxID for transactions.
I doubt they have made any transaction, but in the case they have made the transactions, it's easy to find to their IDs. You can enter your binance deposit address into a block explorer and see all the transactions made to that.


The first transaction is from over a week ago, surely that is enough time?
That's more than enough.

Don't forget the bonus on the Multiply BTC game. Freebitcoin regularly offers to the players free coins bonuses to wager on this game. I don't really understand how much you need to wager to get it and how the amount given is calculated but it greatly reduces the house edge when you're gambling it, because you still get RP points and lottery tickets for what you're wagering while the coins you gamble are free. 
The bonus you are talking about isn't really free.
If you claim a bonus, an amount equal to the bonus is deducted from your main balance and the deducted amount and the bonus goes to bonus account. For the bonus balance being credited to the main account, you have to wager the bonus balance 25 times. Given the 5% house edge, it's expected that you lose the bonus completely and 25% more.
2124  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin address gone after reinstaling Electrum wallet? on: October 08, 2022, 09:27:21 PM
Yes,it has no history.
If the wallet had transaction history before and you are entering the correct seed phrase for recovering that, it's impossible that the wallet has no transaction history, unless the used addresses are beyond the gap limit.
Did you try increasing the gap limit?

Even if someone has stolen your fund, you are still doing something wrongly. You should see the transactions you were able to see before.
2125  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin address gone after reinstaling Electrum wallet? on: October 08, 2022, 12:49:59 PM
So, you have two different problems now.
1. You are recovering a wallet with different addresses.
2. There's an outgoing transaction from your address when you check it bitcoin explorers.

Take note that even if the fund has been stolen, you see the transactions (the one you received and the one made by the theft) in your history tab.
Recovering a wrong wallet and the fund being stolen are two different issues.

Changing it to 21 won't download v 21.0. The download link is maybe different for that one.
The torrent download link wasn't different for the version 21. The problem is that it hasn't been kept on the server.
The torrent link for the version 21 can be found in archived version of bitcointalk. If you click on the "torrent" button, you will see that the link is https://bitcointalk.org/bitcoin-0.21.0.torrent and you get "404 Not Found" error.
2127  Economy / Economics / Re: Unemployment Rate FELL, But why is the market going DOWN too?? on: October 08, 2022, 07:50:24 AM
The interest rate is still expected to be increased by another 75 basis points and that's affecting the markets negatively.
Also, the inflation rate is going to be updated on October 13. Usually, with decrease in unemployment rate, inflation rate increases and that's not a good sign for the markets.
2128  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin address gone after reinstaling Electrum wallet? on: October 07, 2022, 11:39:03 PM
Maybe i have restored it through wrong derivation path or made some other mistake.
If the seed phrase has been generated in electrum and not somewhere else, it can't be different derivation path issue.

  
If it's a different derivation path you can let Electrum search for it.  When restoring the seed phrase, on the same page that asks about type of addresses you want to restore there should be a button to search for alternate derivation paths.
If the seed phrase has been generated in electrum and that's not BIP39, there is no page asking you the address type or the derivation path at all.
Once you enter an electrum's seed phrase, the wallet type is displayed and there is no way to change that.

Nevertheless, I'm still concerned about your claim that the coins moved from the address you sent them to.  That indicates to me that you may have been scammed some how.  Was this the first time you had sent coins to this particular wallet?
Maybe, OP is a victim of clipboard malware and the address he is looking for belongs to a hacker, not him.
2129  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin address gone after reinstaling Electrum wallet? on: October 07, 2022, 09:18:32 PM
While i select show addressess, alot of addresses shows up,both green and yellow,but the one that i sent bitcoins to is not there.
This means that the seed phrase you imported probably belongs to a different wallet which is empty.

There's another possibility which is unlikely of course.
Electrum shows 20 receiving addresses by default while there are more addresses.
Didn't you generate several receiving addresses before picking up an address? If so, it's possible that the address in question belongs to your wallet, but it's beyond the gap limit.
To increase the gap limit, you can use the following command.

Code:
wallet.change_gap_limit(50)
With this command, the gap limit increases to 50.
2130  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin address gone after reinstaling Electrum wallet? on: October 07, 2022, 08:25:17 PM
When i have reinstalled the Electrum wallet,the bitcoin address that i have had before was gone.
Are you sure of that? Take note that you don't have a single address. Your wallet contains numerous addresses.
Go to "Addresses" tab and check if you see the address there. If "Addresses" tab is not available, click on "View" at top of the window and select "Show addresses".
For checking this, you can also go to "Console" tab and as mentioned by OmegaStarScream in the first reply, use ismine command.

Please answer the following questions as well.
1. Is your wallet synced? If your wallet is synced, the circle located at bottom right corner of the window should be green.
2. Do you see any transaction in the history tab or it's empty?

Dammit! It all were in the mind and I did not crosscheck before making the post. Was I right about Investigation board?
I just made a search to find the answer and couldn't find anything. But it seems that posts made in "Investigations" board are counted and you were right about that.
For instance, notblox1 has made this post in "Investigations" board. If you check his post count, you will see that his post count is equal to number of posts displayed in his post history. If posts made in "Investigations" board weren't counted, his post post count would be lower.
2132  Other / Meta / Re: The curious case of the Brand New user with posts on: October 07, 2022, 04:37:36 PM
On Serious discussion and Ivory Tower it's the same logic but that's for below Full member rank. So everyone can see the post and activity count but they can not see the posts that they are not allowed to access.
You are wrong here.
Posts made in "Serious Discussion" and "Ivory Tower" boards don't increase your post count at all.
For more information, see the post made by theymos.

- Posts in Serious Discussion only activate a potential-activity period. They do not increase your post count.
 - Posts in Ivory Tower neither activate a potential-activity period nor increase your post count.
2133  Other / Meta / Re: The curious case of the Brand New user with posts on: October 07, 2022, 03:44:45 PM
I think that I've seen before at least one user being banned and all their posts being obliterated. But I don't remember details.
Moderators use the "nuke" feature if they want all the posts to be deleted and the user banned, but I don't think this is what caused the wrong post count.
According to modlog, this user is the last user who has been nuked. As you see in his/her profile, the post count is correct.
2134  Other / Meta / Re: The curious case of the Brand New user with posts on: October 07, 2022, 03:24:11 PM
Besides, if his posts are in trashcan... shouldn't their number be shown as 0? Perhaps a mod can bring more light here...?
I am not sure, but their post count may be corrected once theymos does a recount.
See the post I quoted below.

I did a recount of post counts earlier today. There are several bugs which cause the post count to drift from its real value over time. The current count is the accurate one.

I do recounts from time to time.



Perhaps there was a glitch at some point, due to which these users were not ranked up...?
Although those posts have been counted, their activity is zero and that's why they haven't ranked up.
2135  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I have a question regarding asymmetric cryptography on: October 07, 2022, 01:11:19 PM
I have a question that , If i send BTC to someone on the network. First, encrypt a message with the public key of the recipient
To add to mocacinno's reply:
Take note that when you want to make a transaction, usually you don't have the public key of the recipient at all.
For example, in a P2PKH (Pay To Public Key Hash) transaction, you make a transaction to a public key hash (which is known as address) and require the receiver to provide a valid signature to unlock the output.
2136  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Historical BTC Releases on: October 07, 2022, 11:25:17 AM
I am not sure I have understood you correctly. Are you looking for previous versions of bitcoin?
If so, take note that bitcoin isn't like an application which new updates are released regularly by a company. 

Or you may be looking for list of bitcoin soft forks? Or maybe previous versions of bitcoin core?
2137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why 95% online Gambling websites are Scam? on: October 07, 2022, 07:12:41 AM
In all casinos, there's a house edge which guarantee that the casino always win in the long run. This doesn't mean that the casino is a scam.
It's normal that the casino should be profitable for the owners.


In 2017 I was introduced by Bitsler.com
This website took me at least 2000 dollars a that time.
They didn't scam you. You played at the casino and lost 2000 dollars. There is no one to blame.
As far as I know, the betting is provably fair on bitsler and there is no way to scam you with unfair bets. Someone correct me if I am wrong please.
2138  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why reveal my identity to get bitcoins ? on: October 06, 2022, 08:05:45 PM
You can see the funds by searching the public key in any blockhain explorer
I don't think there's any blockchain explorer working with public key. To see your balance and your transactions, you need to enter your address.
Take note that address is different from public key.


and you can access it by logging in with your public and private key together in any bitcoin thin client.
Again wrong.
For accessing your wallet, your private key is enough. Your public key is derived from the private key.
2139  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why reveal my identity to get bitcoins ? on: October 06, 2022, 07:22:02 PM
How can I see the funds I have in a paper wallet created in bitaddress ? I have my public and private code, how can I see the funds or how does it work ?
You can enter your bitcoin address in a blockexplorer like blockchair.com and see your balance and your transactions.
Take note that you should keep your private key privately and should never share it with anyone.
2140  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Scam or bug: flyp.me please help verify on: October 06, 2022, 06:50:52 PM
That might be the problem, but it should show that amount from the beginning when you input the numbers. The way it works seems like a bait and switch, but I wasn't sure.
Yes, that's the problem.
I just tried it to see how it works. As you said, the exchange rate may change once you enter your receiving address.

I tested it with exchanging 0.2 BTC and 0.002 BTC to USDT.
Currently, they give 3929 dollars for 0.2 BTC and 34.34 dollars for 0.002 BTC.
Given that the current price of bitcoin which is around 20,040 dollars, the fee for trading 0.2 BTC is around 2% while it's around 14% for exchanging 0.002 BTC.
