taking usual long time means sender didn't put enough transaction fees in order of amount.
what happened to this coin-
this coin is not safe to pay anywhere before at least one conformation.
can i get them back-
if sender put 0.0btc for transaction fees it will reverse in some time to sender wallet automatically.so you can't get them back in any case technically. but you can request your sender to send again.
you can't buy anything with unconfirmed transaction btc.
The TX has over 240 confirmations, just let the topic die. |

Hi i have been running my node for awhile now but have only recently wanted to start using a vpn permanently. When i do this my Node drops to the minimum 8 outbound connections and drops all inbound, is there a way round this? i'm presuming that this is because my IP has changed?
Since you are (likely) not the only person using the VPN your node is no longer reachable from the outside and is thus limited to 8 connections. Thanks Shorena i do get that, are you saying then a Bitcoin core node cant be run if using a vpn service permanently? No, you can run a node without accepting connections from the outside. No matter from which direction the connection was established, the traffic can flow in both directions. You will still get all the data and run a full node. You are just no longer available to SPV clients like multibit. Thanks for that, i was just always under the impression that to be classed a "full node" you had to be excepting incoming connections.  Some people claim that, but I and at least one core developer disagree. Feel free to find your own way, but for me the "full" in full node means, "fully verifying" which has nothing to do with the number of connections (should be at least 1 though) or which way they are established. If you prefer more connections you could also modify the code slightly to make core establish more outbound connections. |

Simply install qtbit on the usbs directory path. Then run it and wait for it to sink. Do you want it on your usb so you can run it where ever you want ?
Or to strengthen the blockchain.
Bullshit. The data directory is not the same as the install directory. Hey, can you tell me how to install as i am also thinking of going for it in to install in flash drive, can you help me also in installing the blockchain in a flash drive. See the post by knightdk. If you only want to move the datadir, use the --datadir=/path/to/flashdrive command. |

Here is the situation,
I have a back up file from 2014-04-03 from a BB device running the Bitcoin Wallet.
I do not remember the password to decrypt it following the UBUNTU instructions provided by Andreas.
Questions,
1- Was a password required? I am usually good with passwords and in this case im thinking I did not use one, or was it required?
2- When following the instructions to decrypt using the guide by andreas, after entering a blank password, it sends me back to the command prompt but when looking into the decrypted file it is empty. I guess this means there is a password set?
3- I read the guide and all, and if I get as far as sending out the funds (there are none) I actually need to get the actual private key out of the backup. The reason for this is because the private key associated with the public key is required to redeem some maid safe coins I had purchased in the pre-sale. Yes, I know it should have done properly from a desktop etc..etc... but it was last minute and I did it from my BB device which is now busted. What do you suggest to recover the actual private key?
Looking forward to your help.
Yes, you need a password, you actually need both. The PIN to unlock the wallet on start and the password to spend funds. Maybe this[1] can help? [1] https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover |

It is good policy l don't like those piramide looks like quotes in quotes and cannot
-snip-
You might not like the pyramid quotes, but that's the best way to let others know whom you're referring or talking about. I see some people reply to someothers without even quoting, which confuses me alot. You dont need to know the last 20 replies in order to follow the conversation. People read the oldest posts first. I agree however that quoting makes it easier to understand which other post a post is referring to. |

i was only able to recover a fraction of my total btc i should have in my wallet.
I dumped all the private keys from all my received address' and sweeped them in Electrum
is it possible that more transactions will appear when the blockchain finishing syncing?
i have 3.3BTC in pending amount (correct perceived amount)
will I have to wait for the sync to be complete to know if my BTC is actually there?
If you are exporting keys, just export all keys. Same steps as here[1], skip 6 since you have no password[2] and replace 7 with ( dumpwallet mykeys.txt )[3]. The file will be unencrypted and contain a list of all (including change) your private keys. Either import them all into a different wallet or swipe them one by one until you have all your coins back. [1] https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1406147.msg14265116#msg14265116[2] seriously? Change that with your new wallet. [3] https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference#dumpwallet |

@somedude5-snip-
Thank you very much for your understanding and serious reply of the subject.
I am new to the whole bitcoin world. And i was wondering what exactly do you mean by "other nodes that function as hidden service"?
Well you can access a site through Tor (e.g. http://blockchain.info/ ) or use a hidden service (e.g. https://blockchainbdgpzk.onion/ ) to visit the same site within the Tor network. Same for bitcoin nodes. They can use Tor to reach other bitcoin nodes with a clear net IP (e.g. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes#IPv4_Nodes ) or Tor nodes ( https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes#Tor_nodes ) If i would have the computer running bitcoin getting physical internet form another box that is routed completely through tor, does that qualifies as hidden service ?
Maybe. The question is not whether you have set up Tor or not, but whether you have a target within Tor (aka hidden service) or outside of the Tor network (everything else). Or do i have to run a tor node myself and connect it through that node in order to be safe from attackers ?
or and can i configure this using the following option described in the software help :
--start code output of help bitcoin client --
-listenonion
Automatically create Tor hidden service (default: 1)
--end code output of help bitcoin client --
( i would really like to know what exactly this option does, i do not understand it completely )
I am very great full for any help regarding this security issue !
You can configure bitcoin core to use Tor to connect to other nodes outside of Tor or you can set it up in a way to only allow connections to other nodes that are within the Tor network. On how to do it, I suggest this thread -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1374919.0 as I have yet to find the time to do it myself.
@calkob What would be the reason for using the tor network for a bitcoin node? i am always abit weary when using tor anyway never mind in regards to my bitcoin
Same reason for using Tor for anything else. Anonymity. Bitcoin addresses and transactions can not easily be linked to an IP address, but its possible. If you are running bitcoin core as a hidden service and only connect to other nodes within the Tor network there is no IP that could be matched. There are also mobile wallets like Mycelium that support Tor.

Sorry, thats no option then. I need to wait till I have a charger (which cost 100dollars  ). Thanks for your responses, but I can't reach the address or anything. No problem, good luck with your search for a solution. You should probably migrate to a fresh wallet once you can access your coins again. Its odd that the seed is not working. |

Check the other replies
Maybe those should be deleted aswell, then. Maybe ? If my reply was deleted also the other replies should be deleted, but I will not report them. Thanks for your interest guys. If you don't report such other posts then for the most part, there is no way for a moderator to know those posts need to be deleted. I don't think it is fair to complain that other similar posts were not deleted without previously bringing such posts to the attention of a moderator who can delete them. I think if they have deleted my message... than they have also seen the other posts. You don't know that. If a moderator is reviewing a report regarding a single post that says "watching" then there is no real reason why the moderator would review the other posts in such thread. Post #6 and #7 have been deleted, #10 stayed and IMHO "compiling" is quite different from "watching". |

Hello, If you can that would make me very happy I tried it over and over so typo seems unlikely Only problem is I don't have my address because thats on the laptop with no power  If you open the wallet file with a text editor you will see something like this: -snip-
"accounts_expanded": {},
"addr_history": {
"12swU3xSag3qjq2HeU1eUNYNcHbMkgK187": [],
-snip-
"14KCeYx2aYNSXJLbucUWpr3d3a2U9Py1DU": [
[
"177270fc7b52674ab876cdce72d594439e87fc96625a35856fa72eeb60554379",
398218
],
The first kind is an unused address. The second kind is a used one with a TX ID and the block (here 398218) the TX was confirmed. The address with the lowest block would be good, because the programm works faster if I only have to check a fee keys for each possible seed. E.g. if you could find one of your first 5 addresses (if you remember) that would be nice. If not, I will check the first 20 on the first run. |

My post respects the forum rules, so what's the problem?
-snip- Its a low quality uninteresting post that adds nothing to any topic. Imagine how the board would look if everyone would do this. Just click "watch" if you want to watch a thread and it will be added to your watchlist, there is no need to leave a reply. |

ok ich versuche jetzt diesen "recovery"Service aber komme bei Punkt 3 nicht weiter! " 3) Then run the pywallet.py script to dump all the important information from your wallet."
Wenn ich das Script starte geht es einfach wieder aus... Sorry aber habe sowas noch nie gemacht und vielleicht kann man mir da weiterhelfen?
Klingt nach Windows. Öffne mal ein Terminal. Shift und Rechtsklick in dem Ordner drücken in dem die pywallet.py ist und "Eingabeaufforderung hier öffnen" klicken. Dann "python pywallet.py" eingeben und es sollte eine Hilfe bzw. Fehlermeldung angezeigt werden. Was ist den dein Problem mit btcrecover? Selbst knacken ist ja doch immer besser und spart z.B. die 20% Gebühr. |

I think this is related to hardware wallets and not online wallets ?
and its uses denial of service attack (DoS) .
No, this has nothing to do with hard wallets, its about network nodes like e.g. bitcoin core. The exploit is using the bitcoin internal DoS protection to ban all Tor exit nodes for the bitcoin node in question to force it on the clearnet or out of the network. This would only work though if you use Tor as proxy to connect to the clearnet and not if you are connected to other nodes that function as hidden service. The lattest version allows you to distinguish between the two types of connections and as such I would argue that this was indeed patched (in a sense). |
