3001  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Binance: $BNB The Future of Exchanges. on: January 10, 2018, 07:14:55 PM
So as long as you buy 1 binance coin, then you are paying less in fees thus instead of paying 0.10 percent, you pay 0.05 percent... can someone confirm this?

Also is it cheaper to buy coins that are available on both bittrex and binance such as power ledger cheaper on binance compared to bittrex?  Because the fee would be either 0.05 or 0.10 percent vs 0.25 percent on bittrex.  But it also depends on the price of btc and power ledger on it though.  But in general those coins that are available on both exchanges, is it cheaper on binance?

Can someone tell me if you could sell wavenodes or not?  And if so, how much is it worth.  Such as 1000 is say 0.01 waves?
3003  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Apparently you can get rich even with scam coins. on: January 10, 2018, 06:52:34 AM
But thats only if you sell it when it gets very high right?  I noticed there are many coins that go up in price and it seems like for no reason at all.  So you mean buy a coin, then once it goes up a lot, just sell it for profit right?
3004  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance Exchange? on: January 10, 2018, 05:18:06 AM
Hey all.  What is the best 2FA to use with binance?  Seems like they allow to choose between google authenticator or sms only?  Are those the only options?  And if so, which is the better choice?
3005  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Binance: $BNB The Future of Exchanges. on: January 10, 2018, 05:09:25 AM
So binance does allow registration for a few hours a day?  Can someone tell me when this is exactly?  Everytime i go on binance it shows registrations are closed etc.
3006  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Ledger Nano s scam on: January 10, 2018, 04:43:48 AM
So the seller on ebay compromised the nano ledger s.  However, did that person reset the nano ledger s when he first got it?  I was reading reviews on amazon about this and many people mentioned how it looked like it has been used etc.


However, even if its been used or tampered with... i thought as long as you reset it and get a new 24 word phrase, that is fine?  Or is that not?


Because this is very bothersome as buying it on amazon would be dangerous.
3007  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance Exchange? on: January 10, 2018, 04:33:33 AM
When are they going to allow new registrations again?
3008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: John McAfee Pump & Dump Group on: January 10, 2018, 04:27:01 AM
I noticed he picked dogecoin.  Does anyone know if you could have made profit on the coin if you were right at your computer ready to buy it?  Because i noticed that the price didn't seem to go that much etc.
3009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ELECTRONEUM SPECULATION THREAD on: January 10, 2018, 04:25:49 AM
Where are you guys buying electroneum?  is it only cryptopia?  And how is that exchange because some ppl says its good but others say it isn't...
3010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Electrum vulnerability found today! on: January 09, 2018, 03:14:52 AM
Can someone here confirm that downloading electrum from the official electrum website now with the windows installer is fine?

Anyone here still using the old electrum and opened it and have no issues at all even though it was recommended by theymos to not do it?

The other thing is what percentage of electrum users even know about this?  Because even if you use electrum a bit, the only way to know about this would be either visiting this forum or going to their website.  And obviously someone isn't going to check electrum website everyday to check for the new update etc. 
3011  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coins with passive income on: January 09, 2018, 02:52:33 AM
Can someone name the top 5 at the moment? 
3012  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best low marketcap coins on: January 09, 2018, 02:52:09 AM
How much money would you say is low market cap?  Like under 50 million?
3013  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Critical Security Release: Please update to Electrum 3.0.5 on: January 09, 2018, 12:37:02 AM
Can others confirm here 100 percent that downloading the electrum windows installer from the official website is safe?

People say to look at the signature but you dont need to look at it though right if its the actual website since everyone who downloads electrum the new version is downloading it directly from electrum website?


3014  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Windows Defender prevent running Electrum 3.0.4 on: January 08, 2018, 03:44:43 PM
Did you verify the signature? There are some threads here where people too thought that they've downloaded from official site, only to turn out later that it was from malicious fake sites from google ads.

I've checked it with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes, and it's clean.

Also dropped it on Virustotal - https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/0489e1df2d71da170f83aefdbf31f69378cff03648b776a588fd504046c5b2ee/detection

It might be a false positive in your case (if this is really an original version), windows defender was previously triggering on Electrum and other verified cryptocurrency programs like Geth. Just make sure to verify the signature first.


Can you explain what you mean by verify the signature?  You mean to tell if its legit?


Because if you download electrum from the real electrum website, would that be enough?  That is how i updated electrum back then when it was version 2.x etc.  So if you download from official site, just click on windows installer and download and thats all right?
3015  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Electrum vulnerability found today! on: January 08, 2018, 03:24:10 PM
Hey all.  So just to confirm.

Download the new electrum on the electrum.org site.

When you do this, do you need to copy/paste your 12 word seed when installing the new version?  I updated electrum few times when it was version 2.x to 2.x and i do not recall if it did or not?

You should be creating a new seed anyway since chances are you are new to this and don't know that if your seed ever saw the internet, your bitcoins are already compromised.

Get an OS that launches in a live OS like Tails for example and use that to generate the new wallet, of course disconnect your internet connection too, then you will guarantee that at least the seed was never saw online.

Now I don't know if it's normal behaviour if the new version should ask you to create a brand new seed, I would make sure that's normal before doing anything.


Hi there.  I had an electrum wallet for a while so i'm not new to this.  I also updated electrum few times from their website when it was version 2.x to 2.x etc. 

So when i update it again on their website, i want to know, do they ask you for your 12 word seed to install the new version of electrum or not.  Because i do not recall if it did when asking me this the last few times i installed new electrum version.


Hey all so just to confirm.  Download from

https://electrum.org/#download

Then download from windows installer right assuming you have windows?  I notice there is a word signature to it that you can click on but since its the real website, just click on windows installer and thats all?

Once you download it, do you need to copy/paste your 12 word seed to install the electrum 3.0.5 or not?

I want to make sure if this before i download it.

Hey all.  Just want to make sure of this.

So download electrum from the website using windows installer like i did previously.  When i do this, would i need to copy and paste my 12 word seed?  I have updated electrum few times when it was in the 2.x version but i don't recall if i need to?  For example when you want to install electrum on a new device, you would install electrum and then click on i already have a seed and then you type the seed etc.

Thanks.

Okay thanks for that information. So what if you open electrum now then but don't download new version.  Is that fine or not?  It says shut down electrum immediately but i assume only if you open the wallet?  Such as imagine you open electrum but don't put in your password to open the encryption?


What do you mean PGP signature?


Yes im going to wait as well in case this is a hack where the forum/mod got hacked.
3020  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Electrum vulnerability found today! on: January 07, 2018, 04:18:27 PM
Does anyone here think it could be the mod or forum hacked getting you to download the new wallet though? 

When you guys did the update when downloading new electrum, did it require you to type down the 12 word seed or not?  I updated electrum few times and i don't recall if it did or not.  I assume yes because well you are creating a new wallet?  But no because well you are just upgrading from one to another?
