I think or confirm that you cannot get back the sent bitcoins to wrong addres ya one thing can be done is you can send a small bitcoin with the message of your problem with the transaction and ask him to refund you,

You cant send a message with a transaction.

if the owner of the wrongly sended bitcoins receives your query , and if he will to send back he will do it or reply you back. If not then just forget it as a bad dream and move on.

Would you do a demo with me? I will prepare a victim VM for you.

Sure, why not. Prepare a system and we will do a simulation.

We are about to do a demo and I think I have found the problem. There is a setting "Send key combinations" that attacker(!) can set. It would probably allow them to see your password. No, we tested it. Its not a keylogger it just shares the clipboard which could be a problem if you use a keymanager.





Also - by default - you allow someone else Full interaction, this allows the attacker to install a display driver that locked me out completly. I was however able to defend by simply pulling the plug and restarting the machine.





Overal we think OP is lying.

unfortunately only chance is if owner of this address would be very kind and return you bitcoins, but chance of this is almost 0, so forget about it and try to earn your  lost money

Ok thanks for your quick replies ... how would i go about writing to the owner ? no harm in trying ... no try no get ...

i see those two link but lol way over my head ...


 thanks

Well where did you get the address from?

well as it was my first time i copied and paste into my email draft ... glad i did or of course i would have no record of it...

No the address you send the coins to. If its not from the merchant it has to come from somewhere. A typo is next to impossible due to the checksum at the end of the address.

I sent this using my blockchain wallet I have a few questions; firstly what will happen apparently I set the fee too low and it wont be included in a block?

Can you tell me what the fee per kb should be as default?

Chances are low that it gets confirmed, currently 30 satoshi per byte are suggested[1]. There is no default fee anymore, it was 50 satoshi per byte just a few days ago. You either have a wallet that can give you a good estimate like core or electrum, you have to check with 3rd party services or just hope it will work.

Thanks for reply!

And, it is imposible to manage addresses you send coins from, rigth?

Well there are no "from addresses" even though blockchain explorers show it like that, but no electrum does not allow you to select which inputs (coins you received previously) to use.

There is a way but its a bit drawn out.. You need to go to the address' tab and right click "freeze" the address' you dont want to spend. When you then send a tx it will send it from the amount that isnt frozen.

Interesting I didnt think about that, I only though about creating a unsigned TX by hand and importing it like you would form an offline wallet, but that would be overly complicated.

why is that?

So you cant spam your way up the ranks.

until a few days ago it was every hour updated
are you sure bout what you are saying?

Yes, the question is asked several times every week, its answered in several FAQs and stickies. If need more information its probably better to find one of the existing answers and lock this thread.

More great news!  Many people use Stream therefore more new adopters.  The news seems to be going over well on the net.

Good job from Bitpay, realy cool bringing gamers to Bitcoin.

Its still a rumor, while I would like to see steam accept bitcoin I wouldnt get my hopes up until I see it.
2890  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have physical Bitcoins? on: February 09, 2016, 01:47:54 PM
I've never researched into physical bitcoins purely because I've had no need to & couldn't be bothered.

Couldn't you get your private key & bitcoin address engraved on the coin though, effectively then it would obviously have value as you could send bitcoins to it/them.
They don't need to do that to have value. You need to consider two things: 1. They are collectibles; 2. They are usually made out of pure silver/gold (sometimes graded). They will always have value which is most likely going to increase over time. There are some coins that have an address and private key in them, albeit they are art pieces (Kialara; you kind of need to break it to get to the private key). There are also coins such as the Silver Wallet, that come with a coin slab in which you can easily add a new address (with QR code) and a private key.

Very nice coins, mine (design 2, #42/100):

At the end bitcoin price is intended to dump lower then.
Untill the fork time we are still in a experimental use of Bitcoin and that is why I believe people won't be affected by changes as they won't care about Bitcoin.
When the fork will take place?

I personally think there will be no hard fork, but a smooth soft fork into segwit without these issues.

2894  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Problem on wallet move from multibit to blockchain.info web wallet on: February 09, 2016, 10:00:30 AM
Hello,

yesterday I have exported the private key of my multibit classic wallet and imported successfully on my blockchain.info wallet, on my original blockchain.info wallet there was an existing  bitcoin address then I move the bitcoin present on moved address to my existing blockchain.info wallet address but the transaction is still not confirmed after more than 16 hours:

https://blockchain.info/en/tx/7a349932e013b4d1a293b9d26912ad8c715264b9fb64b2d686d89ac370d8b182

Faucets, eh?

Your TX is 24220 bytes and pays a 10000 satoshi fee. Thats ~0.4 satoshi per byte, while currently 30 satoshi per byte is suggested[1]. Since its a blockchain.info TX, I suggest you wait the 2-3 days the require to get your coins back and create a new one with a proper fee afterwards.

[1] https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

Thanks !

....why for so small amount this transaction is so large ?

Because it uses many low value inputs, look here[1] on the left side.

[1] https://blockchain.info/en/tx/7a349932e013b4d1a293b9d26912ad8c715264b9fb64b2d686d89ac370d8b182?show_adv=true

...and then the default blockchain.info wallet have not use the correct fee ?

Thanks
Fabrizio

A flat fee makes no longer sense, but 10000 is usually fine if your TX is ~250-300 byte in size. If the wallet you use does not allow for a fee estimate you should check with cointape before creating a transaction and estimate its size (in byte) if possible.
2895  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum and address management on: February 09, 2016, 09:56:52 AM
Hello, Bitcointalk Smiley I have two questions and sorry if anwers already exist on some thread, but I haven't found it.

1. How to import private key to a wallet that created by seed. Sweep is unsituable if you want to use vanity address. I found the way is just create new separate wallet by importing keys.

You cant. It was possible in electrum 1.x, but removed in 2.x, because people lost coins AFAIK. The seed can not cover addresses that are not generated by it. You can import the private key for the vanity address into a specific wallet however. That way its really obvious that its not covered by the seed and you need to keep a separate backup.

2. Will addresses from "used" category be deleted ever by Electrum? I don't want to lose them.

No, its just to encourage you to use new addresses, because its best practice to do so.

You cant double bitcoin in a hard fork. You can have coins on both sides of a forked network though.

You should read this[1] post.

Who in the world controls the bitcoin?

Everyone that has a private key for an address that received bitcoin can control these specific bitcoin.

I don't understand where it appeared and how it began to be one of the official currencies?

There is nothing official about bitcoin. They are created by an algorithm defined by software people run on their computers and specialized hardware. Over time it became valueable because people declared that it has value to them.

Who controls the course of Bitcoin?

A variety of people have influence, but there is no real control.
