Ca fapt divers, de pe ce aplicatie incerci sa retragi fondurile? Poate e vreun scam cunoscut...

In privinta portofelului, eu folosesc Bitcoin Wallet si nu am nicio problema. De asemenea, si Blockchain si Jaxx. Incearca-le, eventual si pe acestea.

De ce Blockchain Wallet? Deși îți dă impresia că ești sub controlul fondurilor tale, e server-sided și dacă nu mai îți poți accesa contul online.. ai pus-o.

Eu, personal, nu mai recomand de mulți ani de zile niciun wallet online, deoarece nu sunt open-source și niciodată nu știi ce se poate afla în spatele interfeței. Aș zice să nu-l zăpăcim pe Valentin.. cred că 1-2 nume de portofele sunt suficiente, iar interfața intuitivă a BRD-ului cred că e mai mult decât ok pentru orice începător.

O să incerc si alt portofel...

Ca un mic sfat, ferește-te de Freewallet. Un număr considerabil de utilizatori și-au luat țeapă de la ei. Dacă nu te prea pricepi cu tehnologia și îți e dificil să înțelegi cum funcționează Bitcoin, revin cu aceeași recomandare: BRD Bitcoin Wallet. În cazul în care crezi că te-ai descurca să folosești ceva mai avansat de atât, mergi pe Mycelium.
3184  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: If I want to explain to a 10 years boy.what is blockchain?How should I explain? on: February 03, 2020, 05:32:10 PM
I don't think a 10 year old kid will understand blockchain technology because an adult person can't even understand blockchain so how come a kid will understand it?

A 10-year old kid doesn't have enough knowledge about technology and it's advancement (unless he's so genius or gifted for his age). They mostly spend their time playing online games like playing Minecraft. But, they wouldn't be interested in any blockchain-related things.

But if you want to explain it to a kid, give him the lightest explanation. It doesn't have to be that specific or more on technicalities. You can simply say, it's a kind of technological advancement that will be part of our future. It can help a lot of people to makes things easier for them to do. You can example a robot. Robot helps people to do things easily. While blockchain is like a robot who can help in making things easier with the use of this technology.

They're too young to be thinking such complicated things. So it's better to wait for a kid to mature before explaining it further. Or you could just explain it to him from the simplest way and then make sure he will often encounter than word so he can keep it in his mind and wouldn't forget about it.

I remember the time when Minecraft had servers you could earn Bitcoin on by just playing and destroying blocks.

A child growing up WITH the blockchain technology would make it easy-peasy when they are 18+ to use it. I grew up as a child interested in about anything related to tech, and today it's easy to understand most things about it.. and that's the perfect example I can give. I grew up with English video games, movies and forums and today I am a fluent English speaker. It helps a lot.

There's no way you can explain cryptocurrencies to a child without getting him confused with every single sentence you speak. As I said earlier, practice is the best way to do it. Give a kid a Minecraft premium account, a server that integrates a cryptocurrency as the in-game economy and a wallet for the cryptocurrency. I guarantee in max 1 year he will know what cryptocurrencies are and how they work.
3185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the best Bitcoin hardware wallets? (Merits for help) on: February 03, 2020, 05:01:58 PM
trezor. have had NO issues with it AT ALL. ive had mine since 2013 or 2014.

however there is a flaw that if you lose the trezor its possible that at some point they can extract the seed (if its found by someone who know what they are doing).

snip

Any hardware wallet becomes a risk of your funds if lost. There's always going to be an exploit somewhere found by someone, so physically losing your hardware wallet makes your seed exposed to potential exploits and flaws be it the best and most secure hardware wallet in the world. If they are fixed through updates, it does not mean there aren't new (or even older ones that haven't been found yet) security vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

So just preserve your hardware wallet in a safe, robbery-proof spot and you'll be fine. I'm very happy with my Nano S, but I have a little bit of doubt lately due to its non-open source nature.

I don't think anyone really cares who wrote the message for you. If your account was hacked, it would've been a different story.
But first of all, you don't ask someone to write on YOUR account for a post. Plagiarism is punished here and is clearly against the rules, which you've accepted as an active member of the forum. I don't let anyone else post instead of me because it should be my work, not theirs.

"Second chances" have been given to others but were given for nothing because shortly the same user who was forgiven broke another set of rules. Wait for the answer from the e-mail address you've sent a mail to, they're the only ones who can decide your account's fate.
3187  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Turning 0.005 BTC to 1 BTC? Trading Journal | Currently 24% profit in 4 days on: February 03, 2020, 03:58:55 PM
Although this is a nice goal, I feel that it is a bit impossible  Roll Eyes Even the most experienced people in trading encounter difficulties and losses, so your goal is almost impossible to achieve. In my trading history, the highest profit I achieved was x3 balance within 2 months, of course, at a large capital. But trading with small capitalization and high profit margins, I'm quite surprised by your statement. Anyway, I will keep the notification here and track your results, good luck  Wink

This is illogical, yes even the best traders make losses and mistakes, but they dont lose their entire balance, if they are successful more than 50% of the time they can make money consistently and given enough time turn 0.005 btc to 1 btc

Not really illogical, considering the volatility of crypto markets. What makes everything harder, like ChuckBuck said, is the capital. Going from ~$45 to ~$9300 is a huge thing to achieve with such a small capital, especially when you take fees and everything else into account. But if he proves himself to be a good trader, he might achieve it. During the 2017 market ride I've turned 1BTC into 25BTC (through alts) but was greedy enough not to take my profits at the time so I have lost all that 24BTC profit in a matter of days.
3188  Other / Meta / Re: Send shady merits on: February 03, 2020, 03:20:42 PM
Very likely this is about XinXan is sending merits to his alt accounts, or he is selling merits. I read somewhere that the average price of 1 merit on black market is around $5 or more, so it doesn't surprise me that there are such suspicious transactions.

I think there is very little that can be done, everyone is almost completely free to give his merits to any post, no matter what the post is about. I think this kind of thing primarily discourages some users who have a very good post/s but no one rewards them with even 1 merit.

Everyone's free to give his merits to any post, but abusing it and traffic of merit is a different thing.

If someone's discouraged by the fact that a member's earned merit for a subjectively undeserved post and gives BitcoinTalk up for that reason, then their purpose being a member here is pretty clear. You don't write for the merit, you do it for the forum and because you just want to share an idea and some effort with someone else.

To me it looks like TEAM360 is an account trying to be boosted by XinXan, hence might be his own. Unless we've proof, that'll remain just a mystery though.
What looks pretty shady is that he's clearly offering services ("From 29th Jan to 31 Jan(The Year of 2020) I will provide free promotional service."), but two posts below he says "I don't offer any service here". This thread, which is his too, clearly offers services too.

The sketchy part comes with XinXan's activity. No posts since 12th of June 2019, yet he gave merit ('coincidentally') in the past month. Things get even sketchier when you put TEAM360's thread next to an ANN thread created by coinliker, a member XinXan has given merit to on the 7th of January. Both threads are using the general structure. Even the first paragraph is centered and bolded in both threads. I doubt TEAM360 was so inspired by coinliker's thread that he decided to go for the same thread structure.

The thing I cannot link though is the level of English these users are using. While TEAM360 is using a lower level of English ("but not reached much people", "Don't run add for your project" etc), the other mebers have a noticeably higher level of English. It could all be about intentionally using a lower level of English to lower the chances of the users being linked together.

3190  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do not trust your memory or hardware, get Redundancy ! Funny True story inside on: February 03, 2020, 12:08:59 PM
I'll leave here my story, but mine fortunately had a positive ending.

Back in the last few days of 2015 or 2016 (can't remember) I wanted to change every password to an unique one, for my security. They were ~15-char-long completely random strings of characters.

I did this to all my passwords during the night of the New Year. Wrote every pass on pieces of paper, but I was pretty tired at the time. When it came about my Blockchain wallet, I didn't want to change my main password. Instead, I added a secondary one. It did not request me to login once again afterwards.

One week later, first of the next year: Had to go on a trip to another country. I rarely logged on Blockchain from my PC, so access was available from my phone. After adding the password, my phone did not require me to log in again. Anyways, I went on the trip I mentioned earlier and... my phone went straight into bootloop after the second day of the trip.

I lost everything, including +2k photos and videos of very important moments of my life. Tried everything possible to recover my data but nothing helped at all.

Fast forward to the summer of the same year. I never opened my wallet until then because I didn't need to move any funds anywhere. I did not even have my blockchain app installed on my new phone. Checked the price of Bitcoin.. it had doubled since I last checked it. I was so excited - I had about half a BTC in my account. Ran towards my computer, booted it up and went straight to Blockchain. Took my piece of paper with passwords written on it, and my Blockchain password was missing. I thought I might've forgotten to change it, so I entered one of my usual passwords and logged into my account successfully.

Months later, I wanted to finally move my funds. Price was even higher. I logged into my Blockchain account and... When I wanted to move my funds, the big issue was encountered: "Please enter your secondary password:". Took all my papers with passwords written on them but there was no password for my Blockchain account. Panic started!

I tried guessing every single day for more than half an year the password to my account with no help. I tried working with hackers who couldn't bruteforce my password after two months of trying. Finally, I thought "okay, let's go through history. Maybe it helps". So I went over to my very old mail account and looked through my Blockchain emails.

After hundreds of emails, I finally reached the oldest Blockchain emails I had ever received: four "Welcome to blockchain!" emails. I saw the attachment icon next to the subject to each of them and I thought "this must be it!". Entered the Blockchain.com recovery page and dropped the first ".json" file on the webpage. 0BTC on the account. Tried the second. 0BTC. Tried the third. 0BTC. Finally, I tried the last one. "This wallet is encrypted. Please enter your password:". Entered the password and after the first try.. DONE! My Bitcoin account was recovered with all my Bitcoins and no secondary password.

Luckily, the Bitcoin price was the highest since the day I decided to change all my passwords. I never had the seed written down anywhere. So although this was a scary and long story, in the end I have recovered all my funds and had a lot of profit.

Ever since then, I swore I'd never forget to write down the seed of my wallet. I'm extra cautious now because I don't want this event to happen again.

Tl;dr: I added a random secondary password to my Blockchain account and forgot to write it down. Lost access to the wallet for about an year, but recovered it through an email backup Blockchain sent me back when I created it.

It's a shame not much could be done against these guys except trying to make his name more visible so the number of victims gets lower.

Is this the profile of the scammer? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2726291

I would like to leave a warning on his profile and a flag before he scams someone. He doesn't have what he is advertising and therefore he should not be trusted.

Yes, that should be him. He has a thread offering to sell a Hero BitcoinTalk account and his telegram is @michaelkrenz, according to his own thread (archived). Upon checking out his Telegram name & profile picture, I can confirm it is "M K" and a missing profile picture with blue background, exactly like the screenshot Ripster provided.

Așa este , vreau sa fac withdraw dintr-o aplicație de minat, eu bag adresa pe care am scris-o pe aici, iar după aceea scrie eroare si mai scrie să verific wallet address. Am verificat wallet address. Ce as putea sa fac?
Aplicația este o aplicație pentru android de BTC.

Ok. Destul de ciudat dacă aplicația pe care ai instalat-o îți generează o adresă care nu merge. Nu am folosit niciodată aplicația respectivă și e destul de suspicios ce spui. Mycelium, după părerea mea, este cam complicată pentru un începător. Sincer să fiu, prima oară când am folosit-o a fost acum vreun an și mi-a fost destul de greuț să mă obișnuiesc până când și mie. Eu zic sa mergi pe BRD Bitcoin Wallet, are interfață plăcută și nu e nimic foarte complex. Pe lângă asta, poți să deții pe BRD mai multe cryptomonede - nu doar BTC.

Te rog doar să nu sari peste pasul acela cu "Paper Key backup". Scrie-ți toate cuvintele pe o foaie și pune-o undeva bine. E posibil să ai nevoie într-o zi de ea. Mie mi s-a dus un telefon acum ceva timp și dacă nu aveam foaia aia, nu aș mai fi avut niciun ban.

Când deschizi aplicația, alege "I only want to browse" în loc de "I want to buy/sell". După ce treci prin procesul de salvare a rezervei de copie a portofelului, din lista pe care o vezi pe pagina principală alege Bitcoin și apoi Receive. Dacă apeși pe codul QR, ți se va copia automat adresa de Bitcoin pe care o poți lipi în aplicația ta de minat. Simplu și ușor de folosit, are interfață intuitivă.

Atenție: dacă apeși pe "Buy" sau "Trade", poți cumpăra sau face exchange de monede dar centralizat. Altfel spus, dacă folosești aceste funcții îți vor fi cel mai probabil cerute date de identificare.
3194  Economy / Services / Re: [FULL] ChipMixer Signature Campaign | Sr Member+ | Up to 0.0375 BTC/w on: February 02, 2020, 03:38:31 PM
I am sure he did. But I tried to explaing something else. If people in Romania need to remain anonymous, ChipMixer should offer it to them. They may not be very active as a forum, but I'm sure this will be useful. A Romanian who sees the signature from here will tweet about it or talk to someone in a Telegram group about it.

There is a proverb in my native about this subject; There is no good or bad when we are talking about advertisement.
So, just try to promote your project wherever needed.

The decisions Dark makes could well be about the countries ChipMixer is missing activity from or BitcoinTalk boards that are missing their signature. As I have seen so far, DarkStar is trying to get their advertisement as much visibility as possible. Don't know if it was his or the platform's choice, but it's a very smart one. It's probably the hardest work I've seen yet to be done by a sig campaign manager. Dark surely knows what he's doing.

If a country has under 3% people using/owning cryptocurrencies, it doesn't mean ChipMixer doesn't have activity from it. In fact, it is very probable that a country with small percentage of crypto owners/users has more customers on the platform than a country from the top of the list. That makes the platform decide to advertise in the top countries where less activity comes from.
3195  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Cross-chain atomic swap protocol BTC <> ETH on: February 02, 2020, 03:21:41 PM
I am unable to enter anything in the "Receiver Address" box. I have tried on three different browsers. The only way I can get a bitcoin address to show (without going in to Developer Tools and enabling text input) is to create an account using the "Brainwallet" function. Given how insecure and dangerous both brainwallets and web wallets are, combining the two in to a brainwallet that you generate and hold custody of for your customers isn't a great idea. Is it not possible to sell ETH and receive BTC to your own address? Why does it have to send to your brainwallet address and then be withdrawn from there?

Can confirm I cannot enter anything in the Receiver Address box either. Tested on 4 different web browsers, including mobile.

The website should go through some internal, behind-the-scenes testing phases before going public, considering there are 3 people so far (4 including me) finding bugs or weird things about your platform. I'm curious about the advantages of it vs Komodo's Atomic DEX too.

If you really want your platform to become a thing, having it public with bugs and possible glitches/errors may turn into a negative overall opinion of it which you wouldn't want to, I believe. I recommend launching a public version only when internal testing phases end with 100% success.
3196  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How can I get full Historical Data prices ? ALTS + Bitcoin on: February 02, 2020, 03:07:06 PM
I believe you can use CoinMarketCap's API (or website) to pull data from their servers. I've imported web data from CMC to Excel to make a personalized, automated Cryptocurrency Portfolio and it's quite easy to do so. The only thing I don't like is their free limits (the limits are small if you want to pull data from multiple pages, I individually pulled price data from coins and after 6-7 coins it stopped), but it is what it is.

If you want to pull data from a high number of pages through their API, there's a paid plan you can go for. However, unless you want to make auto-updating lists of data, I think the second link below will be more than enough.

Here's a link to the api: https://coinmarketcap.com/api/
And here is a page of the historical data from 28th of April 2013 until today. Might help you: https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/

Am stat puțin să mă gândesc și cred că înțeleg la ce se referă. Valentin, dorești să îți faci withdraw de pe un cont de exchange (sau alt cont online) pe aplicația ta de pe telefon.. cu alte cuvinte, să îți transferi banii în contul de pe telefon. Corect?

Dacă da, atunci ce trebuie să faci este să îți iei adresa pe care spuneam că o găsești în partea din dreapta-sus a meniului principal (apeși pe codul QR și îți va apărea codul QR mărit, sub el adresa ta și sub adresă un avertisment) și să faci withdraw-ul (retragerea banilor) de pe exchange sau de unde dorești, către adresa respectivă. Trebuie să ai în vedere următoarele lucruri:

  • Ai maximă atenție ca adresa pe care o vei introduce pe site-ul de pe care vei face Withdraw să fie adresa ta corectă. O literă sau o cifră greșită înseamnă trimiterea banilor într-un cont care nu îți aparține. Tranzacția este ireversibilă. Mai bine verifici de 10 ori și ajung banii unde trebuie decât să nu te alegi cu nimic.
  • Ai maximă atenție și în legătură cu monedele pe care vrei sa le retragi din contul tău online. Ai grijă să nu trimiți o altă monedă către adresa ta de Bitcoin - procesul de recuperare a acestor bani este destul de complex sau, în funcție de caz, poate fi chiar imposibil.
  • Tranzacția ta probabil va apărea ca fiind Neconfirmată (Unconfirmed). Nu te panica - confirmarea tranzacției tale poate dura și câteva ore în cazul unei congestionări a blockchain-ului.

Sper că am reușit să acopăr întrebările și grijile pe care le ai. Revino în cazul în care mai ai nelămuriri și am să îți ofer ajutor cu mare plăcere. Dacă tot nu înțelegi și nu te deranjează să îmi spui de pe ce platformă dorești să faci withdraw, îmi poți spune numele platformei respective și am să îmi fac un cont pentru a îți arăta pas cu pas ce trebuie să faci.
3199  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Priceless" Bitcoin commerical on: February 02, 2020, 08:44:32 AM
who said he is against bitcoin?
just because someone spreads nonsense FUD about bitcoin in the media and on the internet doesn't mean they are against it. you'd be surprised how many of the FUDsters are hard core believers in bitcoin who are buying lots of it every chance they get.
He said it himself. All his posts are about how gold is better than Bitcoin and how Bitcoin will be "the ship sinking" with all of us, holders and believers.

I wouldn't go for the fact that some FUDsters are hardcore believers in BTC. As soon as someone has been FUDding something ever since their first public opinion about it, I have to believe they really are against it. If I'd go for your idea, then I wouldn't have to believe everyone who's against Bitcoin because secretly they might actually hold it. Who cares?

As soon as their ideas are public and they have hundreds of thousands of followers, their ideas affect and influence their minds. If we think through your idea, the man might be FUDding Bitcoin because he's owning a precious metals shop and doesn't want his shop to get less demand because of Bitcoin.

Whatever, I don't care what lays behind his tweets. It's enough for me that he's always stating negative thoughts about it. Even when he found out it was his fault for forgetting the password of his Bitcoin wallet, he STILL found a way to make it look like Bitcoin is shit compared to gold.

Suma nu cred că e nevoie să o știm. Problema e că, la fel cum spune și Gazeta, nu înțeleg la ce te referi.

Poate prin "withdraw" te referi la ceva complet diferit de gândurile mele. Eu am încercat să explic orice nelămurire ai, da' parcă ești din ce în ce mai diplomat.. așa eu nu te pot ajuta cu prea multe în afară de a îți oferi explicații de care intuiesc eu că ai nevoie.

Dacă aș ști unde anume vrei să ajungă fondurile tale (exchange? paper wallet? la ATM?), ți-aș oferii ajutor. Ai văzut că odată ce mi-ai spus ce aplicație ai, ți-am oferit ajutorul necesar și acum știi unde să te uiți după adresă. Nu ți se poate întâmpla nimic dacă spui doar unde dorești să trimiți fondurile tale de BTC!
