Is there a chance what you tried to withdraw included a fee?

Nope.

In blockchain explorer the transaction is exactly as i stated 0.0340000, yet i received 0.033

Then I'd send a message to CM's support email listed on their website with your token and txid.
2522  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: March 06, 2021, 11:01:28 AM
chipmixer is behaving weird for me.

i sent 0.0340 and received 0.0330. It does not match increment rules they state.

Depositing 0.1240 BTC will result with 0.124 BTC funds.

anyone know why? Is there a new fee? Nothing wrong with it, but no information on website
I didn't use any merge chips features.

Is there a chance what you tried to withdraw included a fee?

Say an exchange charges 0.0002 for you to transfer your funds so you actually got 0.0338BTC sent.
2523  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: public address in my wallet? on: March 05, 2021, 05:04:15 PM
Everytime you send or receive funds, a new address will be generated by your wallet.

In the addresses tab you've found there should be a "new" button (or there used to be) so if you want more addresses you could use that too.

Follow their free channel and see how good their calls are (follow with 1%-5% of your portfolio). If they do well you should, only then, consider joining them (after a week or a month of following).

All trading is risky and you might want to follow what they suggest to trade by looking at a chart as some get paid to advertise buying coins that have just pumped or are about to the minute the person gave the call (as in groups and whales admins compound what they have and buy the start to push the price up leaving their users - and the market - to keep the price inflated while they cash out). Which means it's a good idea to check for common scam trends in the area.

Also don't custodian your crypto to anyone and don't use a bot unless you're confident in its functions.
2525  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I have 5k to invest, should I buy Ripple or Litecoin? I do not want to hold on: March 05, 2021, 10:41:21 AM
Where's the 712.98% come from? That looks like a made up number especially if it doesn't give the original value.

Like mentioned, I'd stay away from xrp if you can. Litecoin is like beta testing for bitcoin so feel free to invest in that and wait for a better fork there that's yet to come to bitcoin.

Aside from that, if the best growth was previously in bitcoin, why are people not going to keep investing in that for a while? It's still the most well known and the most secure.



Why didn't you put gamble in your title if that was your intention?
2526  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: P2P Network discovery question. on: March 04, 2021, 10:21:58 PM
Yes so host1 knows host2 so host1 sends a message to host2. Host2 then sends a message back and stores host1 on their peer list. They send a message to each other every so often with ne wpeers they'd like to advertise the other connect to.

Generally the bitcoin protocol works by doing this with seed nodes and then those nodes advertise other nodes (either randomly selected or selected by speed) on to the new peer to reduce their load.
2527  Economy / Economics / Re: The End of Covid Scam? "Governor Abbott Opens Texas 100 Percent" on: March 04, 2021, 08:16:59 PM
I saw this a few days ago and thought it was a way for them to stimulate the economy after being without a lot of things due to the power outages and snow but that could just be my take on it.

Their covid cases were getting lower though before it was put in so it may work out well for the state. And if there have been mass gatherings because of the storm (for warmth and shelter) then it might not cause much additional harm reopening things now.
2528  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: There is more that meet the eye on: March 04, 2021, 06:24:47 PM
Not only with keyboards, but with apps in general. It's a safe assumption that some people copy-paste their wallet's 12-24 word recovery phrase to a notes app and/or copy-paste their exchange passwords. Well, turns out, there are apps out there that sniff out your clipboard data(regardless if it's due to app functionality reasons, or for malicious purposes).


I think every social media app has received backlash from doing something like this in the past so it's not only random apps sniffing what's on your clipboard. There are some crypto apps that will also autopaste your 2fa keys into them - which could be problematic if it's a password instead (even if you trust the app you could have someone watching your screen)...
2529  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: There is more that meet the eye on: March 04, 2021, 01:57:37 PM
Yeah I thought this was well known.

It's why apps like mobile banking have their own keyboards in them and it's often best for wallets to do the same (but on Browser they can't).
2530  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What are full nodes on: March 03, 2021, 09:31:48 PM
Full nodes generally propagate the network. They help verify transactions and blocks and then distribute them.

You don't necessarily need (many) full nodes to keep bitcoin and similar cryptocurrencies working but they do help to increase bandwidth and initial sync speeds (miners, block explores and a few other services run full nodes for profit anyway and the network could likely survive just off that).
2531  Economy / Economics / Re: Global debt soars to 356% of GDP on: March 02, 2021, 07:38:23 AM
Stock prices might crash severely,but I don't think that stocks will die as an investment tool.
The stock price crash might lead to US pension funds going bankrupt,which means no pensions for millions of people,which means huge decrease of consumer demand and another Great Depression in the USA.
I don't really think that socialism is a solution for any economic problem,but that's just me.
The money printing machine of the Federal Reserve System will cause a disaster for sure. 


They could always just switch currency...

And yeah socialism is a "not yet" type of system - because it's massively underdeveloped. You could potential see land ownership be nullified for 5 years or something (but with deed ownership still) to try to bounce the economy back to where it was by start g to get people producing food and then reducing the amount of people needed to those better at it. All you NEED is food, water, shelter and safety (eg healthcare and laws).

2532  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: [Have] PayPal [Want] 95% BTC / 97% Altcoins on: March 01, 2021, 08:25:25 PM
maybe friends and family with a note ?

There was a suggestion a while ago for using a note calling it "intangible goods non refundable" to get it to not charge back. I think you should also try to empty the account as fast as possible also and remove the payment method (if using a new PayPal account for it).
2533  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Need a blockchain expert to help retrieve stolen coins from mycryptomixer. on: March 01, 2021, 07:55:31 PM
The funds are still in that address, you'll have to wait for them to be moved: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/38JSoBKFuAYXgvMAKsk8aHYmiMfuFS2AyA

I'd recommend if you use a mixer again with a similar amount that you send smaller sizes of funds or split them between mixing services. You could also use an exchange as well to mix a smaller amount of funds and throwaway accounts.
2534  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Addresses and keys on: March 01, 2021, 10:48:25 AM
1. No, addresses are made independent of anything. Your wallet just picks a few numbers.
2. Yes the value an address has is stored on the blockchain forever as the blockchain indexes each transaction (it only holds a list of transactions).
3. Losing a private key is the problematic part as that's what's needed to spend funds from your address.
4. NO. A private key produces the address.
Private key - > public key - > address

The address is a double hash of the public key and the public key is generated by running an irreversible operation on the private key.
2535  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: [Have] PayPal [Want] 95% BTC / 97% Altcoins on: February 28, 2021, 03:28:17 PM
can sell you 50$ Bitcoin for the same amount in paypal

I'd take caution with that as PayPal is reversible, I'd double check you know the best practices for stopping a charge back (if there are any).
2536  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How do you Remove Negative Feedbacks given by other people on: February 28, 2021, 03:25:10 PM
Nah it doesn't matter. You may as well just ignore them if they're inaccurate I'm sure others will be able to work that out too.
2537  Economy / Speculation / Re: Elon Musk and BTC on: February 28, 2021, 02:50:12 PM
Don't look at assets by unit price but rather market cap.

Overall, in market cap, bitcoin itself has reached $1.3 trillion. Its up to you to decide for yourself whether you think that is overvalued or not.

I'm not sure when musk bought his funds but recently there's also been a drop down to $44000.
2538  Economy / Speculation / Re: I think it's time to go Short on Bitcoin on: February 28, 2021, 02:42:19 PM
Shorting from 60k mightve been better Smiley.

I do think we have seen a triple bottom in the 44-46k area so we could go down, but we're also trading on weekend volume for the next 20 hours so something different could easily happen.
2539  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: what was the highest Merit given on Bitcointalk ? on: February 28, 2021, 02:21:55 PM
Three limit per transaction is 50 so thatll be the highest.

And no it isn't hard to get merit on bitcointalk if you're here for genuine curiosity/discussion rather than things like giveaways (exclusively).
2540  Economy / Economics / Re: Facebook agrees to makes payments to Australia on: February 27, 2021, 08:47:19 AM
It will be very difficult for Europe to go that route reason being that America is still one of the best market in the world and if you start taxing US companies, America is going to come after European companies and is going to hurt them more because Americans has more residual income to spend than Europeans.

But Europe has the biggest economy overall so the US can't do too much with sanctions, you still share a land border with one of our allies too...

That would be good, however most legislation that looks like would damage the incumbents (Facebook, Google, big media,...) actually has the oposite effect: raising the barriers to entry of the smaller companies.

Yeah I suppose they'd have to do a lot of this stuff as an overall thing. Like how YouTube pays everyone that allows ads on their videos and get a certain number of views, a similar thing could be done for Facebook but it could reflect proportional following interaction (if a small news company has 1000 followers and 900 actively look at what they're ousting and interact in some way then they should do better than another company with 10000 followers and 2500 interactions, or a large news company with millions of followers and only 200 reactions)...
