Other than the potential drop nothing would really stop them taking loans against their funds to get more...

It's the same with defi though, you could stake 1btc and get 0.66 back in cash to buy btc again and get 0.44 in cash, 0.29, 0.19, 0.12, 0.08, 0.05, 0.03, 0.02...

Your 1BTC gives 2.88BTC exposure... But this is all leverage is - although this would cost 0.26 at 9% for a year in interest. Much cheaper than most if not all leveraged options out there.

In addition, don't use the Original File. Copy the file somewhere else as a backup before you do anything with it. In case you ruin the file it's always good to have a backup.

Maybe the OP is talking about the Mobile Bitcoin Wallet, refering to his other posts:

I don't know if it's just me but both of those addresses don't look to have a balance on blockchair? Can you post the txid and are you sure you sent the transaction? What software were you using?
Txid: sent to : bitcoincash:prnsxaalhxeayq78cf85c4c49zcckq4595t69j88hp.
I used the mobile application :Bitcoin.com wallet

We need more info here Smiley

From the other thread it looked like they sent the funds to someone else as they had been moved after they were transferred.

Unless they're hoping to be able to double spend their own funds back to themselves or something then I can't imagine the two being related...
2903  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: restaure Bitcoin wallet on: December 10, 2020, 09:26:49 PM
Is it "walet.data" or "wallet.dat".

If it's the latter, it's likely from bitcoin core downloadable from the ribbon at the top of this site.

To import, backup your file first on a separate device.
Put the file in %appdata%/roaming/bitcoin (Windows) or ~/.Bitcoin/ (Linux) and run the newly installed program.
2904  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can't run Electrum (different versions) on: December 10, 2020, 07:52:33 PM
What version of Windows 7 are you running? I had an original version on my old laptop and it wouldn't work. But another machine with windows 7 service pack 1 does. Can you try installing the service pack from the official Microsoft website?

Alternatively there's a suggestion of an update you have to run at the bottom of the electrum downloads section which you can searchffor on Microsoft downloads and attempt to place.
2905  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Playing Dice with transactions on: December 10, 2020, 06:12:28 PM
Does each side need some sort of "maintenance limit" too though then above the dust limit to ensure the user is missing something if they refuse to sign the transaction.

For example, someone gambles with 10mbtc and lose all of it, there's no reason they'd sign a new transaction rather than chancing their luck with the htlc (timelocked transaction). I'm not sure how high you'd place this margin at though...

Like MK4 says. You also need to say how much volatility you want (or don't) and how much liquidity.


For their sfrangths price wise I'd say btc, eth, eos and xrp along with litecoin or chainlink (pick a preferred out of those two). But these are sort of mainstream coins and you could instead just look at charts with more currencies added and see which are køre optimal to trade.
2908  Economy / Economics / Re: Currencies worth less than Satoshi on: December 09, 2020, 11:59:59 AM
For example one 0.33 water bottle is: 813,492.55 VES (~4764 sats) and one loaf of white bread (500g) is 1,722,932.91 VES (~10130 sats)


On that point i think Indonesia have a 20000 IDR note or something similar as well..
.
A site like xe or Wikipedia will list the notes available, that could be more helpful (if you want to fact check sources to see if there's anything better, gbp has £100,£50,£20,£1 and £5 notes (50 and 100 are rarely used/accepted though)).
2909  Economy / Economics / Re: Why bank need cheap loan as low as 0% to make profit?? on: December 09, 2020, 10:56:51 AM

Because in a country if the Cebtral Bank is providing loans to banks at zero interest rate, there is no way the Bank will charge 6% - 10% interest rate from individuals or businesses. It has to be around 2% - 3% annually! So please let me know where you have seen such disparity?


I think 4% is the reasonable cost to add tbh.

Banks still have previous bonds/creditors they have to pay off also.

BUT! What you're probably quoting is an advertised rate, I've seen banks advertise 6-12% (risk dependent) but I think you should be able to negotiate it down to 4-5% above the base rate pretty easily.

Banks also REALLY want to give mortgages and collaterally backed loans because they're easier for them to manage (and less regulated).

Local banks/building societies might give better advertised rates also if you don't want to negotiate.
2910  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin bullrun & Altoin bear market on: December 08, 2020, 07:05:28 PM
If this happens some coins like eth will see a massive spike at some point.

With the eth 2.0 stuff and litecoin potentially testing out mimblewimble before Bitcoin gets it (if that's still happening) I think we'd see a huge run on them too, it can be just after the bull run but probably won't be too long after.
2911  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Cannot send TX - deadlock after pressing Pay on: December 08, 2020, 01:25:27 PM
How much is in the small input and how much is the fee you're trying to spend?

Can you click perview/advanced and see if it'll build the transaction for you in that window?

I think there's an option in file > preferences > fees to enable manual fee setting.
2912  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: I have recieved a Bitcoin E-Mail Scam on: December 08, 2020, 01:31:15 AM

Was that four years ago?

The site says "4 years later...  The 2012 leak"
2913  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: ethic(moral) on: December 07, 2020, 11:29:24 PM
What account? A bitcointalk account or a bitcoin wallet?

I made a thread on bitcoin inheritance here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5285003.msg55471258#msg55471258

If it's account-wise then that's going to be community dependent and you should probably move the topic to meta. I'd say you could just declare you've given your account to a relative (you could use a signed message for this) and they can confirm - someone will probably give the account a neutral tag for 6-12 months or something just in case though.
2914  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Help on Code Audit for New Projects on: December 07, 2020, 10:36:36 PM
Unless you're wanting to learn how to program i dont think it's possible. There are too many possibilities for what code can do that I don't think a heuristic would present much usable information to the user...

There may be a way to look at how they commit to their git repo as to whether it looks natural or not but this might be difficult to do too.. . 
2915  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: EXECUTION of crypto arbitrage? on: December 07, 2020, 09:50:12 PM
Just watching prices on different exchanges over the past couple of months I've seen divergences that seem large to me (not sure if they'd be enough to cover the fees) but a difference of ~0.3-1% is able to last a while.

I'm not sure what you mean by infrastructure? Is this as in a bot of your own or on an exchange site as exchanges seem to be quite slow at responding (although this is probably the same all round as stocks can be slow to execute). APIs are normally considerably faster for exchanges too.

Also it'll depend on how much you want to deposit and how safe you want it to be. The main trusted exchanges atm seem to be binance and coinbase... I'd regard bitfinex, kucoin and a few others which would be the next most secure ones to be quite a bit further behind in security - but may be good enough...
2916  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: I have recieved a Bitcoin E-Mail Scam on: December 07, 2020, 09:35:03 PM
How do you plan on working it out?

If it was already leaked then the people trying to crack your password should be able to test yours against the leaked data (assuming it was correctly stored with a salt when obtained from LinkedIn)...  Can you work out the first time it was leaked also (if you've found 4 some might be other people using the same password in the past).
2917  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Its time to stop calling the left progressive, because they are the opposite on: December 07, 2020, 01:53:45 AM
positive change for whom?

the US left has done a lot of bad changes, it has burned down american cities, killed hard and honest working policemen

powered racial grievences. and now they are trying to install a corrupt government in order to siphon funds to illegal and corrupt recipents.

they are evil.

Positive change to the individual. You're not a political group or a party: you're an individual you should make decisions as an individual.

If the police are being killed its likely a result of poor training (Ftr the UK averages 1 death a year and we've only had one this year during the protests).

Who are these illegal groups you speak of they're trying to send funds to? Are you on about the mail in ballots trump was calling illegal or is this something else?
2918  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Mobile wallet's inaccurate mempool estimations on: December 06, 2020, 10:51:15 PM

You're probably better off reporting this on their github: github.com/spesmilo/electrum/
(also find out who's running the server)
2919  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Recovering BTC from 2013 mining on: December 06, 2020, 04:33:22 PM

Once I've got the wallet.dat file, is there a way to check the balance on it ?

If your Internet is pretty slow. You cna instead export your private keys and import them into Software like electrum > downloadable from electrum.org which will see a much faster syncing process. (if searching Google for software downloads, be sure to check you don't click an ad).

Alternatively, if the wallet.dat is located among blocks and chainstate folder an initial sync may not be required and you might see your funds fairly quickly after the startup window vanishes.

Once core is installed, I fyou moved the wallet.dat file, copy it into either ~/.Bitcoin (Linux) or %appdata%/roaming/bitcoin (Windows) before starting the program.

Backup your wallet.dat on an external drive too!

Is btc guild a site? Can you log in to it?

You could also search your computer for "wallet" to see if any matches come up (either from C:\ - Windows - or / - Linux).
