Can you show an example for Windows please? I could not to get results with "-h" in my Windows 8:
That is odd. I do not see any console output in the windows EXE build of electrum. If you run electrum from python sources it works. For example: I want to send commands to Electrum via TCP from my script running on the same machine where Electrum is. If i launch the Python version, can i achieve this? Is the Python version also a daemon ? P.S. I have Electrum for Windows, do i need Linux for that? |

Hi,
i have an Electrum wallet running on Windows but i don't see a way to neither open the Python console nor to make the daemon listen on localhost:7777 so that i can send him commands from my script.
How can i achieve that?

I've found something: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/master/lib/commands.pyIt's the getunusedaddress command. So basically i have to connect to Electrum on localhost:7777 with curl and issue getunusedaddress with Force=true and it returns me a new address. EDIT: actually the right command you need to call is addrequest , which internally calls getunusedaddress but the latter can not be called directly. Which is not needed i think, AFAIK addrequest creates a new address everytime. The only thing left to check is if i can restore all of my addresses with my Electrum seed if my computer fails. Maybe i'll just test that on another machine |

I think the most secure would be to run your own computer for 24/7. I think Electrum wallet can offer some API for that. I need to do some more research on the topic.
Surprisingly (or not) no one from coinpayments even bother to reply on this topic. It's a shame.
I am reading http://docs.electrum.org and http://matt.ramuta.me/blog/1419787186410-how-to-write-scripts-for-the-electrum-wallet but they cover only a few of the calls we need. We also need a call to create an address, because we need to receive a payment that uniquely identifies an order by user X for the product Y. And i wonder if your Electrum seed can restore all the addresses you have on the wallet, or it restores just the first one that Electrum created when you first launched it? For example after you have received 100 payments you have 100 addresses on your wallet, one for each payment you received. Suppose one day your PC burns and you get a new one. If you install Electrum there and import your old wallet using the seed, will Electrum restore all the 100 addresses and balances ? |

I am not kidding, we must go there physically. We are thousands and they are just a few, so what's the matter?
The reason they fool us and rob us is because we don't react, don't you realize?
If someone gives you a punch and you don't react he will get confident and keep beating you harder.
By the way what are the real names of btc-e operators?
To go to which address? What names? Everything is hidden from the public. Maybe in Russia maybe in Panama...... Mayzus? Well he knows exactly to whom his companies were sending all fiat deposits but he is probably tied to legal contracts not to discuss that in public. But they all know (Mayzus, Deutche Bank, Cloudflare, Equinix datacenter.........) but not us, actual owners the most of BTC-e's fiat and coins. That's a good start. They were Cloudflare's customers right? And Cloudflare knows their identity. If we are 10000 angry people and we go together to Cloudflare or Equinix office they must give us the names we want. |

@KindHearted
No, I wasn't registered agent (yet), but my intention was to expand business and go entirely legal way.
I agree that they should give me some time frame as the real company should do. For example, PayPal would give the option or at least they have the clear time frame to release funds. But here, there is nothing like that.
@Lionel
I think I won't trust any of the merchants again. Recent "adventures" with coinpayments, btc-e, poloniex which is denying to verify my account for nearly three months now lowers my trust for any of the "companies" dealing with BTC.
The best option would be to make your gateway. You don't need to have your computer turned on 24/7. You can always get some VPS server or dedicated server to act as your payment gateway. I think the good idea is to get "verification" before your business goes online. What I mean is sending the merchant your address and asking if they can check if it's ok with their ToS. If they are ok with that, you will have some proof that they agreed to work with you.
Your VPS solution is already better, even if not 100% safe. Because even if you encrypt your wallet on a VPS, the server is still in someone else's hands or the "police" can seize it and technically rob your coins while the wallet runs. They can just use your wallet from its interface while it is running, and withdraw your coins to their pockets. |

+1 on this although i just traded a little amount from BTC-e and not losing money from it but it is a precautionary measure on other online trading site for cryptocurrency lets be vigilant because some others will follow what BtC-e did to their clients.it might happen to other trading site too. so let's build an army to protect against scams of any online trading site.
Yeah it looks like it is becoming a trend for trading sites to pretend to "be hacked" or "seized"... we must teach them that the next time they're gonna pay with their blood. Even if they got seized for real, they can't tell us the lie that the FBI got the money, because it's impossible. All wallets are encrypted , and also backupped on local storage, and the FBI does not know the password. We must make them realize that these jokes are risky for them, not just fun |

Are you guys still believe in santa? We will not get any refund from Btc-e nor US government . US government always interpret their own laws depending on their own interests and Btc-e owners right now are covering the tracks so they can run away with remaining funds, or they will offer the funds to fbi to avoid getting in jail. As I said before we need a new coin where, in situations like this, users can vote and in case of a majority will freeze the stolen coins until the exchange or authorities can prove which coins are dirty and which are legit. Somebody said that will be the end of crypto.I don't think so.Look at ethereum, they did roll back and the price and popularity compared to 2016 is huge. There are thousands of coins nobody is using so another useless coin will not be the end of crypto. I'm a trader not a programmer, but if somebody will make a coin that: - is based on some type of pos algorithm where stake will be very small 1coin or something very small to ensure everyone can take part
- generated coins will be awarded to a random peer(s) or some algo to ensure fair coin distribution
- a simple voting system so the community will decide in case like gox, btc-e or major software changes
If something like this is technically possible then I will be happy to make a donation to help development. Someone said that btc-e will refund us the 1st September. If that does not happen we must go there and smash them to get our money back. We are many so we can organize a huge group that neither the police can stop. I am not kidding, we must go there physically. We are thousands and they are just a few, so what's the matter? The reason they fool us and rob us is because we don't react, don't you realize? If someone gives you a punch and you don't react he will get confident and keep beating you harder. By the way what are the real names of btc-e operators? I hope this info is public since we give them thousands of $$ each |

Are you saying that russian customers are selling their btc-e usernames? And that means the site is live somewhere on some IP ?

We must take PHYSICAL action, not legal.
We must go there and make them restore the site so that we can withdraw.
They do these things to us mostly because we don't take action.
Don't you see that the more the people is becoming submissive compared to the past ( like the 70s), and the more they fool us ?
I am sure we are many and they can not defend against us. Police is weaker than it seems from the news or CSI tv series, trust me.
The first step to do is : start counting how many we are.
So that you realize that we are an army compared to those freaks
Everyone of you that is losing funds and wants to go there together and get them back, write +1.
+1

I hope it does come back!
I have traded on there for years and got stung just like the rest of you.
Maybe they will keep their word and give us back even some of our coin!!
In order to give people their coins, and possibly their fiat back, things first need to be made clear as in btc-e speaking out who is currently in control of what number of funds. If the government is in control of the majority of the total funds, then just forget about getting anything back. If btc-e still has access to a major part of the funds, while I must admit that the chances for this to be reality are on the very low side, people actually have a tiny bit of positivity to hope for. That being said, there is nothing more to lose, so we shouldn't get upset if things aren't going to play out as most people (me included) were hoping for. Yes that would be nice to get some back!! I hope they have the cold wallets!!!!!!!!!! You hope?? Of course they have, come on.. I don't believe that the feds would have got the private keys, of course they were encrypted and backupped in cold storage. Only a stupid can operate a site with billions of dollars without using encryption Do we know the actual administrator names at least? I suppose that many people trusted them in the past years just because their identities are public and not anonymous.. right? |

Very shameful.. i was about to use their services but now i am rethinking.
Merchants like us can benefit from a payment gateway API like Coinpayments or Bitpay which in theory is better than having a wallet on your local machine and call its RPC API to receive/send payments.
The latter is not the best solution because you have to keep your computer running 24/7 at home.
So i was thinking to receive payments through Coinpayments or Bitpay and withdraw my funds from there to my local wallet once in a while or everytime i top 0.01 BTC, ... but from your experience i see that's not safe.
So what is an alternative solution than having to run a wallet at home 24/7 ?

That sounds about right. It's really not profitable at all right now, so if you like the coin, it's much better to just get it off the market for much cheaper  I think the competition consists mainly of IT workers that have massive server farms where they can run this on for nothing, but a personal guy wouldn't really be able to compete against this, unless you're happy with hurting your CPU 24/7 for next to nothing  When talking about CPU mining some people here say that it is done mainly by botnets , so 0 elecrticity cost. But i wonder how the infected PC users do not even notice that their CPU and fan are working at full speed ... hence i don't believe that botnets are used for this task |

I don't received payment from this faucet too. Don't waste your time here.
Me neither, no payment received. Scam |

Hi, i don't know which pool are you using and how much are your earnings, but i feel that either the pool scammed me or it's not worth the struggle to mine this coin. Pool: xmg.suprnova.cc My hash rate: 30-35 KH/s Earnings: 0.01941802 XMG in 2 hours Current XMG/BTC value on Bittrex: 0.00004747 BTC BTC value: 2300 USD roughly So i've got 0.00212 USD in 2 hours which is like 0.0254 USD/dayJust 2-3 cents a day??  I would probably consume 10x more money in electricity for each processor. Am i missing something here? Probably i got scammed Which pool are you using and what earnings and hashrate did you got? Screenshots: Earnings:  HAshrate:  Mining client: wolf-m7m-cpuminer-V2-x64-0204 on Windows 10 x64  Processor: i5-6200U @2.30 Ghz , i was using all the 4 threads |

It seems to pay out rather reliably and within expected variance
What pisses me off is in their GUI it constantly under reports my hashrate by a huuuuge margin. Other pools I have used do not have this problem, and they're often over on their estimates on the "dashboard" or looking directly at my workers.
Like for example one of my workers is reporting 290 hash locally but in the web gui it's 195, on the assumption this doesn't affect payout no big deal. But I'm not informed enough to know
Does Suprnova give us our earnings at least? At least did your earnings got confirmed? I have mined 0.175 Hexxcoin a few hours ago and they are still Unconfirmed |

Why has its price dropped like that in a few days?
I've read it's because of uncertainty about technical changes, any details ?

Seems offline to me now since yesterday
|

|

Hopefully they will return again... but still disappointing to see a second extended downtime.  Do you think we can sue them and get the money back? Since the US considers BTC as real money, they should prosecute BTC thieves as well, like they do for real money. |

so this is another site turned into a scam ?
