Etherscan is a explorer and help you to track transactions.
In etherscan, you can enter your ethereum address and see its transaction history.
Note that you can only see the address the fund has been sent to and there is no way to know the identity of the hacker. If your wallet is hacked, the fund is gone.

Also note that you should never connect your wallet to a website you don't know what is actually doing.
It's the first time I've heard of connecting a wallet to etherscan. I hope someone isn't trying to scam you.

Read my posts above.
I read your previous posts. but you didn't answer my question.

How can you guarantee the 10% profit in 30 days?
What will you do if the money invested by new users isn't enough for paying the old users?

If I invest 10 BTC, I should be able to withdraw 11 BTC after 30 days. What if I am the only one who have deposited to your website? Where will the 1 BTC profit come from?
2663  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Cryptopyramide.com - Ponzi scheme on: March 05, 2022, 05:01:29 PM
Please read what I have on my site carefully!
I have read it.  
The website says that the profit comes from new investors. That's exactly the definition of a ponzi scheme.
I recommend you to search for "Ponzi Scheme" on google and see what you get. By definition, a ponzi scheme is a form of fraud. Even if you mention that on the website, it doesn't change anything and it's still a scam.
2664  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Cryptopyramide.com - Ponzi scheme on: March 05, 2022, 04:43:14 PM
My website says (profits are generated by new investors) - what is the point of cheating people?
What will you do when the money deposited by new users isn't enough for paying existing users?

My understanding is to wait 60 days and see if the truth is a scam, a fraud.
Even if you pay all the users for 600 days, it won't change anything.
All ponzi schemes are scam. They pay the users in the first days and finally run away with users money. There is no exception.

2666  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Moving a wallet from Armory on: March 03, 2022, 11:01:31 AM
you mean sweep the individual addresses?
Yes, you can export your private keys from Armory and sweep/import them into any other wallet like electrum.


not sure if armory has any real benefit because it's not interoperable with other wallets.
Armory gives you a root key which is not compatible with other wallets.
As already said, for importing your wallet to other wallets, you have to use your individual private keys.

The biggest benefit Armory gives you is privacy, when comparing it with SPV wallets like electrum.

You can use the links provided by TimeTeller to visit announcement threads of many altcoins/tokens.
Just note that scams are not moderated on this forum. Most of those altcoins/tokens are scam and have been created only for making the creators rich.
Always, do your own research.

And for some reason(s) you realised they are not a bank but casino, which made you think you cannot trust them?
From my understanding, OP stopped using freebitco, because freebitco lost trust in him, not because he lost trust in freebitco.
It seems that, OP has been banned from using freebitco because they believed that he was abusing their referral system with multiple accounts.
2670  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: smal USDT balances ?? what to do ?? on: March 01, 2022, 08:59:52 PM
and sendindg to kraken will take like 20$ fees (maybe more),
If I'm not wrong, you have received the USDT tokens in ethereum network and now you are talking about the transaction fee.
Am I right? If so, consider receiving the payments using other networks like TRON for the next payments. In this way, you can pay much lower fees when making a transaction.

This is the time to transfer one's bitcoins to your hardware wallet for safety.
It doesn't necessarily have to a be a hardware wallet.
Any non-custodial wallet can give you full access to your fund. It's better to use an open-source wallet on an air-gapped computer or a hardware wallet*. It can be also a paper wallet generated using a safe tool on a safe device.
2672  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Missing coins!!! on: March 01, 2022, 05:34:50 PM
Then that's a massive flaw in their implementation. I've never used MetaMask, but I'm very surprised no one has complained about it before. 6 characters can be spoofed fairly easily.
I just checked MetaMask to see how it works.
Once you paste an address, it changes to 0xXXXX...XXXX. As shown in the following image, it only shows the first 4 characters and the last 4 characters.



The receiving address is shown in the same way, even on "Confirm" window.


they dont care about security they just want everything to fit in that narrow window at the top right of the web browser i guess.
As you see in the above image, that's the same even in their Android application.
They can show more characters and the address still fits in the recipient address field. But they don't do that.
2673  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: I have my wallet address, but I can't remember my wallet I used... on: February 28, 2022, 09:20:30 PM
So do I need to enter the p2pkh:?
Given that you said the address has been created in 2011, it should be legacy and it doesn't matter if you don't enter the prefix.
Whether you use that prefix or enter the private key without a prefix, electrum should generate a same address.


I have been trying but every time I enter my key, my address/wallet will be in full form and then change to "watching only" I have done both address and Private, it switches to watch only with private key too...?
If you enter a private key, the wallet shouldn't be watch-only.

Note that your private key should start with K, L or 5 and should have 51 or 52 characters. *
If it has a different format, it's not a private key at all.

*There are other formats for a private key, but they are not common.
2674  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Choosing network type for sending bitcoin to my electrum wallet on: February 26, 2022, 07:30:19 PM
You want to withdraw from Binance, no?
It doesn't seem to be binance. Binance doesn't support lightning network.
The options on binance are BTC, BSC, BNB and ETH.

But I think now they added some kind of detection and they propose network base on address proviced.
Yes, once you enter an address, the network is automatically detected. But there's still a problem.
BSC and ETH have a same address format and it's still possible to select a wrong network. If the withdrawal is made to a custodial service, there's the chance of losing the fund.
2675  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin censorship for Russian addresses? on: February 26, 2022, 02:27:58 PM
Q. If there are 100 miners around the world and 100,000 transactions in the mempool, do all the 100 miners pick up the same 4000 txns in the block sorted by fee? (I read online that a block has approx 4000 txns). I would imagine that all 100 miners would pick up different transactions?
Once a transaction is included in a block, that's no longer in the mempool and the next block will include new transactions.
So, a miner includes 4000 transactions into a block and they are removed from the mempool.
The next block will be mined (by the same miner or a different miner) and will include 4000 other transactions.

Q. If the USA government controls these miners and tells them to not pick up transactions from the mempool that belong to the addresses blacklisted by the US government, can't a Russian miner create their own block with the transactions from the mempool ?
Miners can include any transaction they want.


I don't think it's going to happen though.
I also don't think that will ever happen. But let's assume it will happen.

Let's say the miners following the rules own 70% of the total hash rate. Miners who own the other 30% are located in sanctioned countries and don't join the 70%.
What do you expect to happen? Will they stop mining? Or there will be a hard fork and they will create a separate chain?
2676  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin censorship for Russian addresses? on: February 26, 2022, 01:43:25 PM
As stated by LoyceV, miners are free to select any transaction they want. So, a miner can ignore all transactions made from/to a certain address.

Let's say your address is blacklisted and now you want to make a transaction from that. You pay a high fee, so it's confirmed in the next block.
If the next block is mined by the miner which is censoring the transaction, your transaction won't be confirmed and you have to wait more, so a block is mined by another miner.

In the worst case scenario, the miners that are censoring the transactions own a significant amount of the total hash rate, ignore any transaction including blacklisted addresses and don't add any block to the chain including blacklisted addresses.

In this case, there will be two scenarios:
1. Other miners will do the same thing
2. We will have a hard fork

Looks like the User you have written is already nuked now
All the posts made by the user in question have been deleted. But he/she hasn't been nuked.
In the case a user is nuked, it should be reported on deletion log.

Dont know if got a perma or temp ban but i guess we dont see him again.
As there is no record on deletion log, he hasn't been banned permanently, but may have been banned temporarily.
2678  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: I have my wallet address, but I can't remember my wallet I used... on: February 25, 2022, 08:00:11 PM
It was late 2011 and I have my private key to it, just cant remember what or who I set it up with. I will try the explore and see if it can point me in the right direction. Thanks Guys/Girls
If you have the private key, it doesn't matter which wallet has generated the address.
You can import your private key into any wallet which supports importing private key and access the fund.
Some wallets also allow you to sweep the private key. With sweeping, the fund is sent to a new address generated by your wallet.
Before importing the private key into any wallet, make sure your device is secure and the wallet you use is trustworthy. A good choice is electrum.

Warning:
Download electrum only from its official website and do not forget to verify your download.
2679  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Question is , what to do with the minned Bitcoins ? on: February 25, 2022, 02:47:37 PM
You shouldn't trust any custodial service with your bitcoin. Any custodial services is able to freeze your fund at any time for any reason. There's also the possibility that they get hacked or they are closed at any time. When you use a custodial service, you don't actually own any bitcoin.
You should always use non-custodial wallets, so you can have full control over your fund.

Not your keys, not your coins.

But enough about that topic, is there any sound way to earn with your Bitcoins while I stay true to the principle ideal of? My keys, my Bitcoins with at least having some anonymity.
No.
You can't have full control over your fund and get interest at the same time.
