2541  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Is it possible to sell SegWit coins on LocalBitcoins.com? on: October 13, 2017, 06:43:18 PM
It seems no, as their receiving addresses are still non-SegWit!

The only update on this that i could find is this reddit post from over a month ago, https://www.reddit.com/r/localbitcoins/comments/6wpiim/will_localbitcoins_switch_to_segwit_addresses/dm9thez/

Quote from: Founder of LocalBitcoins
Yeah, but will take some time.

They're definitely supporting it. Besides that, what is exactly the issue? Non-segwit / segwit adresses are exactly the same right?

What is a hardfork and how would it effect to the existing system ? Also how would someone survive on a hardfork?

It means they copy the coins basic infrastructure, but add/edit certain perimeters.

For example bitcoinCash, they edited blocktimes and a couple more things. - https://www.bitcoincash.org/

It doesn't effect the existing system technically, but it may do financially, eg lowering marketcap, causing FUD.

There's nothing to survive as a person, only as the opposing system - Bitcoin Core vs Bitcoin Cash.
2543  Economy / Exchanges / Re: How I lost trust (and 1 million USD) in Changelly, be warned. on: October 13, 2017, 03:09:30 PM
In short: I exchanged 11,711 Ethereum (worth $3,888,000 at the time of correspondence) for 7,265 BCH (worth $4,352,000 at the time of correspondence) with Changelly on the 30th of August (more detailed description below), which they failed to deliver. Which at the end of the line costed me €1.000.000,-
We have had contact with the staff from Changelly for a settlement; they have yet to respond properly.


First of all, I am an experienced and high volume day trader. I take risks where I see opportunities. These are my own risks, although the following loss is and will never be my risk/fault. Changelly states to give a cheap and secure way of trading. The story below will proof the opposite.

The first contact resulting in the loss of trust was on the 30th of August. I tried to exchange my (11,711) Ethereum Coins (ETH) for (7,265) Bitcoin Cash coins (BCH) as per the rate of Changelly.  After Changelly received my 11,711 ETH, I received an email where Changelly cancelled the deal, without me receiving back my ETH. (First time they break an agreement)

As this is a huge amount of money I expected them to contact me. When this didn’t happen I decided to do this myself (all of this happened in 10 minutes after the deal was set up and Changelly received my ETH).  They replied with me asking to confirm the first deal that they already cancelled and I replied instantly with a side-note if they could hurry up, as ETH was dropping in price and BCH was skyrocketing.

They once again cancelled the deal and offered me a new deal; 11711 ETH for 6217 BCH. This calculates to a loss of 1048 BCH in this second deal. Unacceptable. Sadly, it’s not over yet. (Second time they break an agreement)

I did not accept this deal and followed up with an email where I asked Changelly to return my 11,711 ETH, with immediate effect (sent at 14:07). This email got ignored. I followed up this email by sending the same mail again (sent at 18:45).

The next day (August 31th) they told me that they couldn’t refund the 11,711 ETH, as 54% (6,324 ETH) of the funds got exchanged on other exchanges. I once again replied that I insist on getting my ETH back. (Exchanged while not having any agreement)

The next day, 1st of September I received a reply.

Changelly 06:16: “The amount sent to us has been partially exchanged on one of our trading partners. Considering that, we can only complete the transaction. We are ready to fully compensate you the loss caused by technical issues and send the whole amount stated in the quotation.”  (Offering compensation that never arrived)
Changelly 14:52: “Regardless of the technical error occurred, we are ready to send you full amount of 7,265 BCH"
(Third time they break an agreement)

At this point I just wanted some value back in my control as they kept breaking promises and agreements so I accepted the BCH. I got an email where it stated that the 7,265 BCH got manually sent to my wallet address.

I did not receive any of the BCH until 70 hours later. Not only that, but I only received 1,200 BCH, what happened with the other 6,065 BCH? According to Changelly they were going to be sent in batches, and it would take another 24 hours.

24 hours later: Only received a total of 2,800 BCH. I emailed them.
130 hours after accepting the BCH (where I received just 1,200 BCH for 11,711 ETH) they cancelled the fourth deal (Fourth time they break an agreement) as well with the following E-mail:

Changelly canceled the second deal: “Based on quotation you were offered 7,265 BCH. By now we have paid 2,800 BCH (approx. 38,54%) and 4465 BCH to be paid. BCH funds are in a turnover and it takes quite a long time to accumulate for payout. Exchanges has recently released our ETH liquidity and we are ready to refund you all the amount in one go 7,198 ETH (approx. 61,46%).”

Following by a payment of 7,198 ETH, the matter was solved for them.

Conclusion:
Changelly held my 11,711 ETH (nearly worth 4 million dollar) for seven days and refunded me the ETH at the lowest price possible; the same goes for the BCH.

11,711 ETH was worth €3.888.000 (September 1st)
7,265 BCH was worth €4.352.000 (September 7th)

After an apology E-mail where no compensation was offered I managed to sell the coins I got back for €3.167.000, which concludes a loss anywhere from €721.000,- €1.185.000,- All of this because they kept breaking agreements and deals…







Have you thought about sueing them?

If you have timestamps and more evidence of this, I'm pretty sure it could hold up in a court case aswell.

- Offering compensation you never received? - Seems extremely sketchy.
- Them breaking a deal without paying you back? - Huh?

Too bad you accepted the 7.625 BCH at the time, i think that by accepting that you agreed to some sort of TOS that you hereby "solved" the matter.

B. Provide me a working demo of your script, there is no site to be found in your OP?


Please PM me if you could forfill these, i might be interested in buying it.

I see @OP is no longer correct and that the price of the current script is 19,99$? This script has no need for node.js? Could you again, please provide me with a demo?

try this script http://posserver.com/product/cryptocurrency-trading-platform/

What is wrong with the script you were previously selling? (http://posserver.com/product/projectex-altcoin-exchange-script-phpmysql/)

Is it no longer supported or? Can you give me some update on this one?

I'm not really interested in the 99$ other script.
2545  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: NA Coins? What does it mean on: October 11, 2017, 08:44:44 PM
I made this post accidentally in the altcoin discussion section. It rather should have been here in the beginners section as I am asking for some beginner help. I was looking through ethplorer for my ethereum address and I

saw a coin with a big amount in there. It was labeled NA so obviously it isnt a real coin but I dont know why or how it showed up. Does this mean my ethereum account is compromised? Also if this is on a hardware wallet

and one address has these coins, there is no way other coins on other address can get effected right? Sorry if this is all newb stuff I am just paranoid as I dont  know why or how these coins showed up and that has me

worried. I appreciate all and any answers, thanks!

ps coin amount was 100 quantillion incase anybody was wondering

your wallet probably glitched out and failed to load in the data perimeters for the coin, which is why it showed up as N/A - Not Available/No Answer.

Usually happens if your system bugs out, or if the internet connection is slow.

That would also explain why it said 100 quantillion, since that is probably the max amount of numbers the wallet can fetch.


Do you have a screenshot of what happend?

What happend when you restarted your pc/your wallet?

What kind of exchange should a newcomer choose and why? Difference of exchanges only in the exchange rate? Roll Eyes

Not really. Alot of factors come into play when looking for the ideal exchange.

There's been multiple posts about it, so just google it.

Some exchange that i personally would recommend for buying bitcoins are both http://coinbase.com && http://bitfinex.com .


For trading altcoins, i would recommend either http://bittrex.com / http://poloniex.com

If you are looking for over-the-counter transactions, your best bet would probably be http://localbitcoins.com
2548  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: multiple exchange arbitrage on: October 11, 2017, 04:31:03 PM
arbitration is a very great thing, I often do arbitration from some exchangers and it gives a lot of profit. but I just picked some big exchanger only and has a large volume to reduce the risk of losing my coin.

Does this really work for you or are you just spamming posts? If you mind me asking, which exchanges do you use, and how much did you succesfully arbitraged? Substantial amounts?

In such a fast moving market, it seems almost impossible to me to sell, for example, ethereum for a profit on bittrex, only to rebuy it lower on poloniex.

Seems impressive and i'm wondering how it it possible while these kinds of tricks are so extremely saturated, as a small person, since there are business grown that have grown/ exist 100% out of just doing this exact thing, how do you compete with them?.

I don't understand what is addy.

I have access to xaxamining pool because it's mine. I can write whatever you want at xaxamining pool.
Now, ims is not at mining pool. Only Middle Earth Coin and hispacoin.

addy = abbreviation for adress, which in this case, means "bitcoin adress".

He is asking you if you are still able to access the following adress:

2550  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is a value set for a new coin? on: October 10, 2017, 06:38:26 PM
Hello All,

I'm new to the forum and reading a lot. I have (almost) no clue where this forum is about.
The more i read, the more questions i have.

But i think its good to start at the start.

How is a value set for a new coin?
How is the value set for example Ethereum or the Ripple?

thx in advanced!

regards,

Kirtap

For a new coin, in the case of an ICO it would be the developer / manager of the coin which will just set a price on it of which they think is fair.

For coins which are already in circulation, it is a bit more complicated.

Ethereum/xRipple their price is based on their demand. The more people who want Ethereum, the scarcer it will be and thus it will go up.

Demand can decrease/increase due to various things, I'll list some examples down below,

Such as

- FUD, Fear Uncertainty / Doubt / Negative.

- Technical improvements on the coin/project / Positive.

- Partnerships / Positive.

- New faces added to the project, ( good developers) / Positive.

- Project / Coin getting hacked, 51% attacks, vulnbs in code, etc. / Negative.

And thus the price will change. Note that there are ofcourse alot more things which weigh in when calculating the price.
2551  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin cash on: October 10, 2017, 06:32:43 PM
What is your thoughts about bitcoin cash? Is this one going to die? Price saw the deep and going deeper should i invest in or stay away?

Honestly, it is a literal copy and paste from bitcoin, with increased blocks and timings.

The only thing that holds up this fork are the chinese community and miners.

China is effectively cracking down on crypto in general, so i would personally turn 180 degrees and run away from this ""Altcoin"" as soon as i could.
2552  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Forking 25th on: October 10, 2017, 04:26:53 PM
What do you think the forking of bitcoin on the 25th will bring? Increases as last fork with bitcoin cash, or do we have another situation this time?

BitcoinCash is mostly a success because of the chinese adoption and those miners. I don't exactly know who supports bitcoin2X, and actively mines it.
What i do know is that there is a lot less hype around it, i've been watching sites such as reddit pretty closely lately, and the only things i saw was people asking where to sell BT2 if the fork happens.

Ofcourse this is just a speculation, but i don't think Bitcoin2X is going to come far, especially since bitcoin core is already kind of implementing what they're aiming for.
2553  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can i convince my client to pay me in bitcoins? on: October 10, 2017, 02:37:23 PM
Hi. I have a client that lives on another side of the planet, in Argentina. He pays for my work via Paypal but it's expensive for me because of each paypal transaction costs and because of converting currencies from Argentinian pesos to USD to EURO. I just lose money  Embarrassed. My client is not into bitcoins. How can i guide him to make him buy Bitcoins with Argentinian pesos (paying with credit card), in a way that he does it quickly and with no complications?

You could try to let him buy bitcoins through coinbase, but even then, he needs to verify his ID/passport, so if he already isn't interested, i think you're going to have a hard time with him buying it.

Even this is pretty complicated if you don't want to know how it works, and it surely isn't without complications.

2554  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Crypto Exchanges (not for trading) on: October 09, 2017, 05:52:12 PM
you can check the exchange list here
https://www.cryptocompare.com/exchanges/#/crypto

I do see that many are not listed there yet, but it should cover most of the major one.

Or look over here, they're sorted on the $$$ volume/24h, https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/volume/24-hour/

Guys, where I can see the list of all exchangers ?
I use the portal https://www.bestchange.com/, but as I understood 95% of the exchanges are Russian and Ukrainian.
Is there an analogue of this site, but with the international exchanges?

What do you mean by "not for trading"? What else are you going to use it for? This is literally the definition of an exchange..
2555  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why different crypto currency, which one is reliable on: October 08, 2017, 08:51:25 PM
Hi,

As I stated learning about bitcoin , I have found that there are a lot of other crypto currencies like Bitcoins. I am wondering why we have many types of crypto currency, who regulates all these currencies, are they exchange able ?

In short,

Quote
I have found that there are a lot of other crypto currencies like Bitcoins

These other coins are so-called "altcoins".

Quote
I am wondering why we have many types of crypto currency

These altcoins simply exist because there is a demand and a market for it. Most altcoins fullfill some usecase, think about things such as video sharing, hosting files, super computing, gambling coins/tokens, the list goes on and on.



Quote
who regulates all these currencies

Most of these coins have a dev team behind it, working on improving the infrastructure of the coin. They're usually the ones who "regulate"/decide what happens with the coin.

Quote
are they exchange able ?

Most of these altcoins are listed on exchanges, yes. See both http://poloniex.com and http://bittrex.com , not all of them are going to be on them, but alot of good ones will. See http://coinmarketcap.com to find out where the coin is listed.

Hey guys,

my former account is banned since july after first time strike. Any idea how to get as much as "fuck off" from the moderator? There is no communication whatsoever, so I have no idea, if the ordeal is supposed to teach me a lesson or make me use another account since the last one is all but deleted.

By the way, the first time strike was fully warranted as I admitted in the appeal, no problem there and I did apologize for ignoring the rules earlier:

Quote
Hello,

would you kindly consider my appeal to account ban lasting since july? It was regrettable sin (copying and pasting - altough sourced) and my first time strike on Bitcointalk forum in the four years I frequent it.

Thank you for your time and effort,

have a nice day.

User 166543, aka Okurkabinladin

I believe that if you are tempbanned, you would still be able to login, according to various people,

Quote from: JessicaSe
Only admin can see if the account is banned, and if you are owner of the account you can see ban message when you login,not other users can find if the account is banned or not.

Which, in your case, means you have probably been perma banned / nuked. Unfortunately, there is no coming back from that, you won't be able to appeal it, and, if an admininstrator/moderator finds out you have a new account, there is a high possibility you will be banned aswell, according to;

Quote from: Mitchell
A permanent ban means that you are permanently banned and not allowed to come back, ever.

2558  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: how many possible private keys can be generated for a public key ????? on: October 08, 2017, 03:31:03 PM
how many possible private keys can be generated  for a public key Huh??






i am new to this bitcoin community....




Each public key has one private key, and each private key has one public key. The public key can be expressed in (at least) two formats: compressed and uncompressed. Uncompressed public keys start with 04 when written in hex, and compressed public keys start with 02 or 03. But they represent the same public key.

In short, for every private key, there is 1 public key, and vice versa. But this doesn't account for adresses.

There are 2*256 public keys, but only 2*160 version-0 addresses, so each address actually represents on average 2*96 different public keys.

Which basically means that for every adress, there are alot of public keys, although bruteforce is still not feasible due to the scale of these numbers.



2559  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Find address with a certain number of bitcoins on: October 08, 2017, 02:51:30 PM
It is possibile searching all BTC address that has a certain balance, for example 1.23456789 BTC?
It is certainly possible by "reading" the blockchain with some script, but is there some website that does this automatically?

I believe this site https://goochain.net/ might be what you are looking for.

Goochain offers to search blockchains based on a variety of differences, for example on how much the adress holds, or when transactions where sent, or, when you only have partial numbers of a transaction ID / adress.

Very useful tool, and extremely userfriendly.
