Thanks I have looked into this program And installed python But This is way over my head. I have found this

https://wallet***reco****.com/

Do you think this is legitimate
It's hard to say if anything is legit, but I don't know this one. Which means I would for sure not trust it.

If you're looking for a trusted site, see https://walletrecoveryservices.com/ , but they're also overwhelmed with work at the moment.

I wrote something on the verse of the page and ripped that part off
Cool story Cheesy

I do know the position of all the words, as well as the last 2 letters in one of the lost ones
Those 2 letters help you a LOT!
If you share those 2 letters, I'll shorten the full list for you. Of course, don't share the other words, but 2 letters should be fine.
24144  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction stuck due to low fees - what to do on: January 05, 2018, 05:46:23 PM
as long as you say I wont loose my btc I will try to stay calm.
I don't know Mercatox, but it's very unlikely an exchange would pull trick after sending your money.

Quote
I would even pay a tip for anybody that can process this transaction faster.
You can enter your txid into https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ and click "Submit for FREE" at exactly 1 second past every hour to accelerate it. Each hour, you literally have a 1 second window to do this.
24145  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction stuck due to low fees - what to do on: January 05, 2018, 05:00:13 PM
but up until now there isnt a single confirmation
You need twice as much fee for a fast confirmation, so it will take a while, it's just high enough to be likely to confirm at some point.
24146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction stuck due to low fees - what to do on: January 05, 2018, 04:34:50 PM
The fee isn't that low, it will probably confirm within a day, or at least on Sunday (usually the number of transactions drops on Sundays).
I've also added your transaction to antpool's accelerator, but I don't expect much of that one.

Quote
I'm used to transactions that last about 45 minutes
Those times are over with Bitcoin, unless you pay a lot more on fee.
24147  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Lost 3 out of 24 words of my passphrase. Bruteforce possible? on: January 05, 2018, 04:04:37 PM
I'll spare you the details of my idiocy  Undecided.
No, please don't spare us, entertain me, I'm curious how you managed to lose 3 but keep the other 21.
How did you create these 24 words in the first place? Usually it comes with a (hardware) wallet: did you destroy that too?

Quote
There wasn't really that much money
Any idea how much we're talking about here? It makes a difference if it's $10 or $1000, especially if you'll end up getting a specialist to do it for you.

If yes, then the problem lies in simply brute-forcing the 3 words, which is about 8 billion tries.
8 billion means you're extremely unlucky Tongue
24148  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Would it cost anything to open a Channel on Lightning Network? on: January 05, 2018, 03:44:33 PM
if Lightning is successful enough then 500 bits could be economic to send on-chain again.
I highly doubt that. If 10 million people make only one on-chain transaction per month, 1 MB blocks are full already.

Lightning expresses BTC amounts in millisatoshis I believe)
I can't wait for it to happen!
24149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: importing priv keys to segwit supported wallet on: January 05, 2018, 11:34:10 AM
Quick question: If I import my private keys from a wallet that does not support segwit into a segwit supported wallet, will I pay lower fees when transacting from the new segwit-supported wallet?
The fee doesn't depend on the wallet, the fee depends on the address. You'll have to actually move the funds to a SegWit-address before you can use lower fees.
24150  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Would it cost anything to open a Channel on Lightning Network? on: January 05, 2018, 09:46:09 AM
I've been wondering about the promise of 100,000 transactions per second with the Lightning Network. Bitcoin can still handle only about 5 transactions per second. That means, for every Bitcoin transaction, there can be 20,000 Lightning transactions! Even if I use LN for everything I do, it will take me years to make that many transactions.
That made me realize something else: someone can receive a Lightning transaction without every making an on-chain transaction, am I right? If that's the case, I can indeed imagine LN having 20,000 times more off-chain transactions than Bitcoin has. And if that's right, many users will keep their payments offline forever: if you only receive 0.00005BTC through LN, it's not even enough to pay for a Bitcoin fee, so all Bitcoin dust stays off-chain.
24151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: bitcoin puzzle public address and what's next? on: January 05, 2018, 09:40:33 AM
LoyceV: I've read all those pages and there is only clues how to solve the puzzle and my questions are not about how to solve it but how to create private key and how to transfer BTC using private and public key. I assume that those questions are in the correct section of this forum.
It's a puzzle. The answer can be anywhere from a location, a phone number, or indeed a private key. Handling private keys is just basic Bitcoin, import (or sweep) it into any wallet and make a transaction.
How about you solve the puzzle first? Tongue
24152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why Stellar is not much better than XRP on: January 05, 2018, 09:37:11 AM
I do not think that XRP is better Stellar. As you know, XRP is created by Ripple Corp.
According to Google, Ripple had 150 employees in 2016. That puts the value per employee at 3 times the value of Whatsapp-employees when Facebook bought them. It seems a bit high to me.
24153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments on: January 05, 2018, 09:32:41 AM
It's linked to Changelly and that is linked to Bittrex. When Bittrex wallets go into maintenance mode, either ETH or GBYTE, the option to trade between them disappears in Changelly. When that happens you can't trade using the in-wallet bot either.
Basically, new users can't buy Byteball at the moment! Cryptopia can't get their system working anymore, and Bittrex doesn't accept new users.
24154  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer - mixing reinvented on: January 04, 2018, 03:43:57 PM
I didn't destroy the first session, finally the two windows were on the same session, that's why I thougt I have two sessions but there was only one session.
~
So to recap : I sent BTCs to chipmixer, and imported private keys via electrum, and then resent BTCs to the same adress which has not been confirmed yet.
Once it confirms, it will show up in your session and you can mix your chips the way you're used to.

The only potential problem is that you compromised your privacy by sending funds to the same address twice, that links your old funds together. It depends on the origin of your funds whether or not that's a problem.


To avoid confusion: I am not the official ChipMixer support, although my signature might be confusing. Just a fan Tongue
24155  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer - mixing reinvented on: January 04, 2018, 03:24:18 PM
I had two windows of chipmixer and the mistake I made is :
I made a first mix successfully and got my BTCs by importing the private keys in electrum.
And then I opened a second window for a second mix, but I sent the money to the first mix BTC adress.
Did you destroy the first session, or do you still have the session token? In other words: can you still access the ChipMixer session with the deposit address you sent funds to?

Quote
The only problem is I sent a second deposit on the adress after importing private keys.
The tx has not been confirmed yet.
If you can't access the session anymore, you could (depending on the fee you used) try to double spend your second transaction to the right deposit address. But you'll have to do this before it confirms.

Quote
I still have the voucher code.
You mentioned deposits before, not a voucher code. I assume this is the voucher code from your first session? In that case it has nothing to do with your new deposit.
24156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help re Unconfirmed transaction to 'Hashbot' scam on: January 04, 2018, 02:20:47 PM
I made a deposit to Hashbot for $90
It was worth $55 at the time you made the transaction, and is currently worth $80.

Quote
How long will it be before the transaction is forgotten, and therefore the balance reappear in my wallet?
If it's unconfirmed for this long, that means it's still being broadcasted.

Quote
Or, is it possible to do a child pays for parent or similar transaction to change the output from the scam wallet address back to one of my own?
CPFP is something 'Hashbot' could do, by sending the unconfirmed funds with a higher fee. This means the current transaction gets confirmed, which is not what you want.

Quote
FYI the transaction was made through blockchain.info wallet, but happy to export my private keys into a new wallet if it would provide additional options.
Most of your inputs are too small to be worth the fee at the moment. I suggest you export the private key for 1ETSFvQ5VQJ1jQRCgf9c2vXd9uwX5tn5GE only. Easiest is to import it into Electrum, see if it picks up the existing unconfirmed transaction from mempool, or that it lets you make a new transaction.
Once this new transaction gets confirmed, your previous unconfirmed transaction is dropped.

Quote
I used to think I was reasonably well informed, but after reading various websites i'm very confused about what to do next so help would be much appreciated!
Keep the rest of your small inputs, and consolidate them if fees ever get lower again.
24157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Question on Bitcoin-Qt v0.8.5-beta on: January 04, 2018, 01:45:32 PM
I presently have an older Bitcoin-qt v0.8.beta
I've sent a bitcoin payment from my bitcoin-qt wallet to my Blockchain wallet.
The process seems to have completed ok from Bitcoin-qt wallet.
Nothing is showing yet as received on the Blockchain wallet.
Bitcoin-QT is showing synchronising 93 weeks behind and it is synchronising a t a rate of 3 weeks per day.
Will my payment be still transferred to the new wallet even though synchronising hasn't finished.
If so how long will the transfer take - nothing has happened in 24 hours.
Transaction details at the moment is showing "unconfirmed (0 ot of 6 confirmations)
Can you find your transaction on https://blockchain.info/ to see if it has even been broadcasted? If it has, it probably has a low fee and won't confirm any time soon.

I strongly recommend you to:
-close the client
-backup wallet.dat
-upgrade to the latest Bitcoin Core
-Start Bitcoin Core. The latest version should sync a lot faster, although it still depends on your computer.

Even if your transaction is confirmed already, your client will only see if after it completes synchronising.

As an alternative, you could export your private keys and import them into (for example) Electrum. But if you're not in a rush, it's safest and easiest to stick to Bitcoin Core.
24158  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Would it cost anything to open a Channel on Lightning Network? on: January 04, 2018, 11:17:57 AM
If there's a fee to open/close the channel, and I only make a single transaction with the other party, how is that different to the existing fee structure?
For just one transaction, you'll end up paying more in fees than without using LN.

Quote
If i make regular transfers, do i simply keep the channel open for all future payments (say with exchange)?
Correct.

Quote
As far as i can see, LN makes it cheap for bulk tx but not really helping the user with individual tx.  I hope i'm missing something.
It's very likely (centralized) hubs will emerge: you open 1 channel with the hub, and the hub has many other open channels. Say Bob <> hub <> Alice, or Bob <> hub <> exchange <> Alice.
As long as you don't close the channel, you can keep using it without paying on-chain fees.
24159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction stuck for over 2 weeks set fee too low because i'm an idiot on: January 04, 2018, 11:14:04 AM
reply: Transaction added to acceleration queue
Included In ViaBTC Block
everytime you jumped in to help accelerate, the tx gets confirmed in less than an hour
care to share how you do it? or do you have special account on viabtc?
ViaBTC just requires impeccable timing, if you click at the right second each hour, you're transaction is 1 out of 100 that gets accelerated.
24160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Abandoning a transaction now making a double spend on: January 04, 2018, 10:16:50 AM
Can someone confirm fee calculation is correct for the below?
BTC = 0.03
Bytes = 818
Inputs = 5
Fee = 0.0025
Satoshi/byte = 305.6234 (250 000 satoshi / 818)
Correct.
