Can uou screenshot the 60' thing?

I'd check the debug. Log in your data directory to see if you can find out why it can't estimate network fees.

According to my electrum app a fee of 32 sats per byte should be sufficient to be included in the next block. With about 25 sats per byte for a confirm within 25 blocks. But this is based on the current state of the mempool and transactions could increase in volume or decrease in volume and change the fees needed.

(accidentally hit the wrong thread).

From the thread he goes on to explain it light just be for exchanges that need to verify who sends and receives funds.

If that happens, I don't see much of a problem. Because you already kinda verified the address was yours in the T&Cs anyway so this is just a further enforcement of that

The UK has some regulation from 2021 that anyone acting as an exchange (p2p or otherwise) might need to register with them to continue trading - which i imagine might be a way to get.AA better grip on who's exchanging and what...

Shit! I had 2 tabs opened and wnt to the wrong one. (I've been staring at charts for a few hours )

If you can accept sterling or euro I can fill it actually though.

The far left expect everything for free. If you think you could and will convince everyone to turn communist (so you can do no work) why would you bother investing in stocks now? It's like how it's possible to make a company where employees own an equal stake while working at the company and the company passes its profits on - but not many do...

I'd hope we'd manage to stamp out far leftism and far rightism as strongly as possible from the forum along with any pro authoritarian peeps that come along who want their privacy sacrificing to big data farms.

Where's my vote to ban those who don't vote?

I've done trades and waited ~16 hours for the transfer as the other person had to go into the bank - I didn't really care as the funds were being held in escrow. And that was partly because I started a trade at 10pm.



European and US bank accounts (I've heard) take ages. In the UK it takes me longer to do touch ID then it does for the funds to move to my coinbase account.

PayPal is faster because they already have your info and can get the funds confirmed fast - it's normally also using visa or some fast payment system they pull the funds out with.

The funds go direct to the seller, they don't go to the exchange - that's on the exchanges landing page. I'd send a small amount first to a trader and send more later in thst case unless they're well reputed (but even then)...

Yeah a lot of fake faucets are a bit like this now. It's also true with the fake minions sites you see where they give you some "virtual mining power" and you get 0.015btc or something for depositing 0.01 btc and buying more power to earn with...

You may as well test you can withdraw funds from a faucet as soon as you possibly can even if they offer incentives like interest or other things. At least if you've already pulled out a few dollars you have something to show for your time.

Tbh even if it's given as a rule I think it's still mostly optional.

You could pm the relevant manager if you're not sure but I'd just go ahead and apply and see what happens but I don't really think they'll care either way...

I think we're a couple of hard forks away from the lightning network being fully robust but when it is, transactions will then likely only take seconds to propagate (if that). And if the thing I'm thinking of isn't fully implemented yet, an increase in fees per transaction of 1 sat would be enough to make it unlikely to cause damage assuming the other node is able to detect it immediately.

73,475,850,794.252 TB
would be the size of that file though (assuming a letter is 5 bits in length and a word is 5 letters and not including spaces).

They look like local bitcoins and from the look of the site they seem to have uk based sellers that can deal. With faster payments.

If you send any other way you're going to have a 3 day anxious wait for Europe or the US to wake up (... I mean catch up) with your bank transfer. Also I think most banks charge you €20 to do a sepa/swift transfer.

You'll notice on your bank statement (if you have one) you should have your account number, sort code and below that will be an Iban and another identifier thst can be used to send international payments (to you).

If you're not wanting to use online banking, you'd just have to go down to the bank and ask them to transfer it (you could probably go to one of those desks with the person with the tablet rather than a cashier). But we are in a pandemic so it might be better for you to get online banking or phone the bank and ask them to transfer the funds.

BANK TRANSFERS ARE IRRIVERSIBLE! Remember that when you try to send make sure you double check it and if you go to the bank ask them for a receipt.

Identity verification and paying are two different things. When you tap your card on the reader/put it in and enter your pin you essentially tell the store and card company you wan't a charge listed against you for that amount to be paid in ~72+ hours time.

Your transfer then shows up as pending, it has not yet been confirmed by anyone. In the UK most cheques can clear faster than card payments afaik (they're normally 24 hours)..

Addresses are compressed public keys to add an extra layer of security.
It's literally a hash algorithm run on the public keys.

I see a considerable chance of a correction to occur, but we're moving in a channel that could see bitcoin top out at 19750 before this happens. I don't see a correction any further than 17000 but I could be completely wrong on that one (my basis is we're on a third leg and up and we don't normally make it to a forth without a correction some time in the third - but this is a completely didfernt atmosphere now)...

Do you have any idea what use used to scatter them? Is there a chance to ou wrote the order down backwards or took them in sets of 4?

That number is still on a magnitude of FUCKING HUGE! for current computers to be able to handle so you'll probably need some sort of heuristic/luck if an algorithm exists.

A quick calculation puts an Intel i7 @ 4ghz with 8 cores at a time of 25k years... There's probably a chance if quantum is ever discovered with a large enough interference magnitude (q bit) but for now probably not.

The segwit ones beginning with bc1q may need labelling "native segwit".

You could then label the p2wsh one as multisig native segwit and the p2pkh one as native segwit.

Afaik multisig native segwit and native segwit look the same until they're used as well as multisig legacy and standard segwit.

I think encrypted keys with bip39 encryption begin with a U. And there's also:
Xpub - legacy extended public key
ypub - segwit extended private key
zpub native segwit extended public key

(with similar prv versions of each).

Can you wokr out what the offending post was? Eg did you get a pm saying your post was deleted? Could you post recent ones here?

Without the wallet file it'll be irrecoverable. Do you have the hard drive the wallet was made on? How full is that drive also?

If you're on windows, try going to %appdata%\local\bitcoin or %appdata%\roaming\bitcoin or search the drive for "wallet.dat". For Linux and mac it should be in ~/.bitcoin.

What happens when you click "mempool"?

If it's a desktop version of electrum, i think you have to go to file > preferences > fees and select to edit fees manually.

I needed a fast conf yesterday and paid 67 sats per byte to get within 0.1mb of the mempool tip (it confirmed at the next block).

I mean in its raw state, the blockchain already is a snapshot... You're just reverting certain blocks out.

I think this is probably easiest and best done with some sort of parser to check over the chain up until a certain height. Either that or you could construct a simple docker that allows the daemon of a chain to run in a thread until the block height exceeds a target.
