I went ahead and copied the whole folder and figured to make it easy on myself. The update went through without a hitch, I got 2.2m bytes, ty gents for your time and patience

Ok guys, I didn't get my bytes yet, I'm sure it's because i haven't updated my wallet. I have written down my seed, but I have no idea what is meant when he says "back up the files to the byteball app". Which files?
What do I need to regain access to my wallet if I upgrade my bb app?
thank you
The Byteball wallet will keep it's data when you update it, but a backup is always a good idea! For a complete backup of your Bytes and Blackbytes, the wallet seed is not enough! On windows, backup hidden folder 'C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\byteball'. On linux, backup hidden folder '~/.config/byteball'. On osx (mac os), backup folder '~/Library/Application Support/byteball'. As Blackbyte transactions are only stored locally, it must be done again every time after you've sent or received Blackbytes!Thanks, appreciate your response. Ok I have the folder open, which files is it that I need to keep? |

|

did not receive my byteball too
1. check if you are running livenet version of the app
2. check if you are running 1.0 version of the livenet app. Before uprading make sure you backup seed words of the wallet and files of the wallet app
what files? Do I need more than the seeds to regain access to my wallet? |

How do I pull it off without removing the funds from my ledger wallet and making them vulnerable? I create a new address, send my coins to it, then try to send a confirmation amount to the transition bot. Even with "Change address" setting unchecked on Electrum, by the time I'm sending the tip It's from a brand new address that has no association with the first and shows a 0 balance.
Have you sent micropayment to bot? If so, what does the bot say? EDIT You have to do it the other way around:
send the confirmation amount first and after confirmation, send all your balance to this address!
Indeed Thanks Gents, giving it a shot now eh. I was afraid to do this for some reason but now I realize it will work I'll let you know when its official. Also, Herme, just to answer your question, I did send a micropayment to the bot, I just could never figure out how t oget the funds to an address and then send from said address. I will go ahead and try what is being said now |

Hello, when trying this and getting to the step where I sign my byteball address with my electrum wallet. When I try to validate the signing (it says to remove and replace the ledger wallet and it will come back as a keyboard and type something in a note pad, but this does not happen, on either of my computers). Secondly, when I try to sign any message, it says that "unfortunately this message can not be signed with ledger wallet. Only 140 alphanumerical characters are allowed, please delete all tabs, spaces ,etc and retry" but there is no special characters.
I've even tried signing the message "hello" with the same issues. Whats going on here?
Thank you.
Also, I can't verify by sending from address because my ledger wallet chaanges addresses with each send, even though I have it checked off on electrum.
Thank you.
It seems there are some problems when signing message with Ledger hardware wallet and Electrum on Windows I found this similar issue on github: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/1675It says that signing messages is more likely to work on Linux It also says that token should be configured to use keyboard 2FA, not keyCard, because keyCard is not currently implemented for signing messages Verification by micropayment works: you just have to send back all your bitcoins to the address from which you paid the bot (make sure it is indeed your btc address before sending anything!) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608859.msg17200476#msg17200476How do I pull it off without removing the funds from my ledger wallet and making them vulnerable?

We need to work more in order to regain the trust in altcoins and I believe that the market should be free of these speculators (i.e. to be with genuine interest).
How do you propose we do that? I thought the whole point of a free market was so there wasn't this type of intervention. We can't have our cake and eat it too. You can't save people from themselves. A truly free market will devour the weak and empower the strong. It's what we asked for in this little experiment. It'd majorly lose it's appeal to me if it was regulated out the ass lol. |

great work hermesesus
what about a tutorial for Ledger Wallet (HW.1, Nano), anyone?
Unfortunately, it is not possible yet to sign a message with a Ledger Wallet and its Chrome appThe "sign a message" feature is in development (roadmap: https://trello.com/c/xMK8hj9r) It's possible since you can use your Ledger Nano - (or Nano S) with Electrum. I've made a tutorial for Ledger Nano S with Electrum Please send me your feedback
Tutorial: linking Ledger wallet Nano S to Byteball account via signing a message with ElectrumStep 1: Install and configure Electrum wallet- Download and install latest version of Electrum: electrum.org/#download- Select Standard wallet  - Connect your Nano S to your computer, enter the PIN and select the Bitcoin app - Then select "Use a hardware device"  - Your Nano S is detected  - Press Next, and select your Account Number. If you are not sure, leave the field with 0, otherwise enter the index of the account you want to import.  - Click on Next, and Electrum will sync your account. Depending on your connection and the server, it may take from a few minutes to half an hour. - Once the sync process is finished, you can use Electrum normally. Step 2: Get a NEW bitcoin addressOn Electrum:- Click on "Receive" tab - Copy your "Receiving address"  Step 3: Move your bitcoins to your NEW addressOn Electrum:- Click on "Send" tab - Paste your receiving address (from step 2) into "Pay to" field  - Enter the amount you want to transfer (you can send the maximum possible amount by pressing the "Max" button) - Select the Fee amount - Click on "Send" - Validate the transaction on your device (Nano S)  Step 4: Install and launch Byteball wallet- Download Byteball wallet from byteball.org (make sure it is the LIVENET version) - Install Byteball wallet - Open Byteball wallet - Click on the link provided by byteball.org to launch the Transition Bot   - Click on "Insert my address" then on "Send" - Enter your bitcoin address (the one from Step 2) and click on "Send"  Step 5: Sign a message (your Byteball address) with your Bitcoin addressOn Electrum:- Click on "Tools" --> "Sign/verify message"  - Paste your Byteball address (from step 4) into the "Message" field - Paste your Bitcoin address (from step 2) into the "Address" field - Click on "Sign"  - Validate the signature on your device (Nano S) - The signature should now appear on the "Signature" field, copy it Step 6: Link your Byteball address with your bitcoin address- In Byteball wallet, paste the signature (from step 5) and click on "Send" - You should get a confirmation from the Transition Bot with your current balance on your bitcoin address  Note: If you spend some of your bitcoins, you will have to repeat Step 3, so that your bitcoins are always on the linked bitcoin address

This is my "end game" scenario for bitcoin. I imagine it hitting that the SHA256 algo (and most other algos) is no longer secure and bitcoin crashes, only to be converted to another algo that is supposedly resistant to this type of computing. It's one of the most obvious things I think has the potential to push BTC sub-100 again. Of course, in reality I have no clue how much a Quantum computer could effect Bitcoin, I'm not a programmer. Nor do I have any idea if/when this could happen.  |

technically both LTC/USD can rise and LTC/BTC can fall. If BTC is rising faster than LTC then LTC could very easily rise against the USD but fall against BTC. It will be funny if you both end up right in the end (though I'd never expect either of you to admit the other was right). =P LTC will either pump on the next halving or when BTC transaction fees getting expensive. At the moment you should only hold it as backup coin.
Nah, I have shorted $200,000 worth of LTC on OkCoin 20x futures ($10k). Going to make some real dough soon . BtcLtc dude is awful excited over the break of 0.006 in ltc/btc. Yes, it could fall, but you could also get ass reamed by a giant spike in price that forces you to get margin called. You'd be fine if you weren't leveraged 20:1 on a crypto-currency that has moved 100%+ in a single weekly candle multiple times in the past 5 years. A good trade can be ruined very fast due to over-leverage. (not that I actually believe for a second this trade exists in real terms) Regardless, I'll be watching now to see how much he's made or how close he's come to the dreaded -80% margin call. It'd be funny if he turned out to be right but got margin called before he could actually be in the profits. Leverage can be a bitch. |

I'd sell 1 bitcoin and buy a loaf of bread. If 1 btc was 1m dollars each, it'd probably be because the usd hyperinflated to shit.

You have had replies, this thread needs to be closed. There is no virus.
I thought i contributed well enough. Kaspersky has one of the best virus def's and it was flagged as "risky" Deemed a "miner" Yup.. old news. This has been going on with wallets and miners for YEARS. The only people who did not pick up on that by the VirusTotal results must be noobs. And yeah i could grab the binary and disassemble it with cracker tools and inspect it manually.. I have done this for a decade or two and found plenty of malware and reported it first. You see there is people who listen to what some AV program tells them And then there is people like me who actually scan the .exe's manually and check them out. Kids / Noobs don't see the difference they just rail on that my Norton Antivirus says it's a Virus. And ? So ? Who cares.. get over it. I use to download and manually check the Crypto uploads on The Pirate bay for almost two years. 90% of them were malware / Trojans / Keyloggers etc. Usually written in C-sharp / .net (it's gotten big with Noob malware coders) No one else did.. It's not that hard to identify a Virus most times. I don't even see the reason to check it and i will go on the record saying so. If i am wrong then by all means flame me hard & long guys LOL But please do recognize what a false positive looks like. You WILL encounter them in Crypto sooner or later. I do like VirusTotal as an online service though. And i was never trying to bash the OP for posting either.. It's not bad of an idea to let people know whether it's a real virus or false positive. I doubt most people would scan it online and older users that know would probably ignore / exempt the .exe when alerted with a resident AV. For example.. my password manager program flags pretty much all wallets. Because they read the clip-board data. But there is nothing malicious about it. Good information, Bad delivery. Why so hostile man? People would listen to you more if you weren't acting like a 16 year old jock hell bent on making sure everyone in the room knows he's the best. You having a hard day? |

LOL, I'm still waiting for ETH to overtake BTC like was said a few months. In fact, nearly every time a coin with new tech makes it above $5.00 we see a handful of nerds come out of the woodwork proclaiming they've found the next Bitcoin investment of the century.
Too bad there's no way to take the other side of the bet, I'd sell Monero Options to ya all day. (and no I'm not talking about shorting, google selling options)

Hey man. Not sure how much of a following it has, but it's definitely still around. Just googling the pair "QRK/BTC" now brings up a few exchanges, though I'm not sure how reputable they are. BTER is the only one I've actually heard people use before but I have no clue if its a scam or not now a days, so please go check things out before going there, but, Quark is currently trading at 0.00000628, or 628 satoshis. Takei t easy |

Hello Ladies and Gents,
First off I would like to thank you for your time to just read this thread and consider answering. I figured the best place to ask this question would be the BTC forums, though I am unsure if this is the right sub-section. If it is incorrect, please forgive me and feel free to move this post to the correct spot. Thank you!
Here's my question:
I am going to put myself through some coding courses in order to learn how to do some basic coding. My goals with coding would have me able to code trading bots, arbitrage bots, simple/intermediate mobile apps, gaming bots, and possibly even some data mining.
I know that there is many different languages to choose from, I'd love to jump right in and learn C++ but I know that is a extremely hard and time consuming. From what I have been reading, It seems that there are a handful of coding languages that would fit my needs (and also be semi-easy for a beginner to learn).
It seems that Python, Ruby, and JavaScript (Node.JS) are the most common three.
Which language would be the quickest to learn and most suitable for creating trade bots that would interact with various exchanges. I would need the programs to be able to interact with both web interfaces and program interfaces.
Would this programming language work well with programs such as the gaming app "Steam"?
I realize that there probably isn't a "One size fits all" language, but which would get me the closest and what type of things would I not be able to do?
Again, Thank you for your time and knowledge. I appreciate the time you've taken to answer my questions. Have a great day ladies & gents, keep up the amazing work!
Much appreciated
Sincerely,
Bitwhale

Pretty anti-climatic if you ask me. We've been waiting for this for like 3 years. I still remember Fontas saying "Any day now Litecoin will be added to Coinbase", telling his minions to prepare for 1000% rises and shit.
LOL.
Let's just hope there's more to come eh? Looks like $4.00 is the magic number. If it's above $4.00 we are headed higher.

I don't think many get what you mean, so I'll start it off. We've had coins such as "42" and other coins such as D-notes/Doge that are on the extreme end of things. Since a coin is divisible down to the 8th decimal point it means that you can have really as many or as lil coins as you want. Of course it's going to effect pricing but I think the "correct" amount would be dependent on what the coin's function is. Like with 42, (not sure what it's purpose was) but it shows that you can have a network with only 42 coins, people just trade divisible pieces of said coin in order to transact. So the typical trader would have just a fraction of one coin. Where as with Doge or REDD, these coins are used for tipping alot, it's also seen as "Fun" to have 1m coins in your name, call yourself a Doge millionaire. Because of this, the normal trader of Doge has a few hundred thousand coins. Each coin serves it's own purpose and function (not sure wtf 42 does other than exactly what it's shown us) and the amount of coins it has is just what ever the developer thinks will support it's purpose best. Long story short, there isn't a one number fits all. It's dependent on the function and intended purpose of your coin. Your coin can have 1 coin or it can have 3 gagillion coins and it still won't be any closer to success than any of the others! |

ok cool, that's what I thought too. I agree that people tend to be biased by what ever they are holding in their wallets, but I hear people say stuff like this on nearly a daily basis: why the fook do you bother posting on this site i just dont get it  you are a complete troll like seriously wise up wasting your time hahahaha The answer is easy, he is a paid shill... his only goal here is to spread misinformation and to bad mouth Bitcoin. Just have a look at the post history and the whole objective of his presence here is laid They always say "PAID shill" which gives the impression that someone is actually paying for this service. lol. It cracks me up because its about as conspiracy theory as it gets. I've seen many people use this term, typically the same three dudes always fighting in the altcoin dicussions. Spoetnik, Minecache, and that other dude lol. So now I am curious, I want to see an instance of actual paid shills. I'm sure if people are getting paid there will be at least one instance of it on the internet somewhere, possibly a disgruntled ex-shillployee? and to the three dudes I mentioned, please don't take this as a personal attack (even though undoubtedly you will), I am merely curious. |
