Just a side note - some companies do have a marketing strategy to run some campaigns at a loss. See the recent Pixel phones that have lower price tags than similar phones due to the fact that they prefer to loose some money on each sale but reach a wider audience and attract more customers to their platform. There's also the example where supermarkets have the so called "loss leaders
n0nce had a good idea that Foundation could make big discounts for improved Foundations edition.
This could be similar like Google is doing with their Pixel line, they have regular and pro version, but later they release version A that usually has cheaper materials and it's smaller in size.
I think that Samsung phones has a lot of budget phones they lose money on, but biggest profit is coming from their flagship models.

When I tried to click on forum's banner which forum's user signature; a warning appear. But it is directing us to strange link. Not easy to trust with this way.
There is nothing strange with tor onion links, everyone who uses internet heard about them, and there is good reason whey Chipmixer disabled clearnet mixing.
You also shouldn't trust any search engine to find anything you need, they accept scam ads and they are often pushing phishing websites on top.

This is VERY important to debunk because FatManTerra has an entire echo chamber on Twitter and also because he's telling them that "centralized mixers are very illegal".
I never heard about this shitcoiner FatManTerra, and I saw his tweets that some crypto magazines are now spreading around.
I guess there is no much action in shitcoin world so he decided to shift blame from FTX to someone else  Embarrassed
This is not the first time I am hearing this theory about Chipmixer (even some bitcointalk members believe in this), but I don't think there is any way for owners to prove this is not true.

Unlimited cards?  Roll Eyes Can you please explain how this is possible and how is this related with Bitcoin?
I have doubt whenever I hear word unlimited, especially in business that is related with crypto and cards.
Domain is really weird, and it is recently created that increases risk of using this service, and same goes with UK registered company that is often used by scammers.

3204  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [TUT]How to buy hardware wallet from unsupported country on: November 26, 2022, 10:42:25 PM
I found a trusted company (https://www.shippingcart.com/) that doing this service in my country with good feedback and I think there are same company to yours that offering same service. I’m planning to organized a group buy on our local board and my social account to share the shipping fee within the participants. I think the total cost that we will spend on this service will be close to the amount that we will save on the Black Friday discount which is why buying now while sale is the perfect way to do this.
Think twice before you call any company ''trusted'' especially dealing with crypto.
I don't know if you are living in Philippines or in some other country, but I would be very careful trusting anyone to handle delivery of your hardware wallets.
However, this is a valid issue you are facing, and I saw another member (dgoon) trying to solve this problem by using Amazon lockers, but that works only in United States.
Best thing you can do is to find reseller shops in your country and pay directly with cash, to avoid complications and leaking personal information.

You can also make your own DIY hardware wallet or order any other alternative open source wallets:

A evo i još jedne, nove kripto prevare, u kojoj su osnivači HashFlarea optuženi za kripto prevaru i pranje novca u iznosu od 575 milijuna dolara.
Nakon ove serije stvarno se pitaš tko je slijedeći i da li je trenutno uopće pametno držati bilo kakva sredstva na kripto burzama ili ulagati u lažne projekte kripto rudarenja?
Znam za HashFlare možda od 2018 godine kad jer cloud mining bio popularan (npr Genesis Mining), ali to je isto još jedna glupost koja radii Ponzi shema, pa me ne čudi što to čujem za HashFlare.
Sigurno nije pametno držati veći iznos Bitcoina na nikakvim centraliziranim stranicam, čak iako svi kažu da je to 100% sigurno i ''safu'' kao nor Binance ili Coinbase.

Suddenly it feels much less secure after seeing this.
Was this a hack or Amazon system gone crazy mode?
This works with individual codes for each locker to be opened, but it must be a way to override this setting in service mode maybe.
Just look at that guy who is genuinely looking for his package , and he is opening and closing them until he finds the stuff he ordered Smiley
3207  Other / Meta / Re: Disable links for new accounts on: November 25, 2022, 08:39:57 PM
Brand new accounts posting a clickable link with colourful and bold letters. I don't know what BitcoinSuprex is and im not accusing of scam or malware because I haven't clicked on the link or researched this, but let's say it is. Shouldn't it be at least more difficult for someone to post a clickable url link? This is common practice in other forums, and seems reasonable on a forum like this to be disabled until you have an higher rank than Newbie.
Let's say moderators block all newbie accounts to post links, they will just write more crap posts until they will be able to post links, so in best case you would only delay posting of scam links.
It should be said again that scam is not moderated in forum, and this stance was clearly repeated several times, so I don't think anything will change regarding this.
More limitations would also hurt genuine new members, and I this is why I am against more strict restrictions.
3208  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: CMarket.info - Crypto Market Screener on: November 25, 2022, 08:00:31 PM
About notifications. I need to think about that. Could you clarify what notifications would you like to receive?
When you release new news article or when Bitcoin price is changed you could have optional notification is users choose them, so this could be sound or any other type of notification.
For all this to work I think you would need to have dynamic page website instead of static.
3209  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Bisq - Exchange, Decentralized. on: November 25, 2022, 07:53:15 PM
Can someone help explain why there are such high premiums on Bisq for BTC vs USD?
Why aren't people taking advantage of the price differences?
Could it be that there's a problem with the payment methods (Pardon me please, I have never used Zwelle  Wink)? Perhaps cashing out is hard?
I never used Zwelle and I don't know how it works, but you can always create your own offers in Bisq, or take advantage with any price difference.
Situation with Bisq is somehow similar to other p2p trading websites (AgoraDesk, LocalCryptos, etc) so I think this is nothing specific to Bisq.
You can follow bisq markets to find real price and trades, price for USD pairs looks almost the same like in centrlaized exchanges, but EUR price is different currently:

I don't wear Bitcoin-related shirts either (terrible opsec), but it's a nice gesture and I prefer them putting the money to good use.
This shirt doesn't have any Bitcoin prints on it, it looks more like you came back from the past and promoting some old Nokia style phones  Cheesy

3211  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Celebrate Self Custody with Cypherock X1 50% Discount on: November 25, 2022, 07:26:12 PM
Thanks for this! We are using the ATECC608A right now because of the unavailability of the ATECC608B due to a global supply chain shortage. But our hardware is compatible with both of them.
Thank you for being honest and answering all the questions.
I added your devices Cypherock X1 in my two topics for Open Source Hardware Wallets and Secure Element in Hardware Wallets.
I would suggest that you switch to new secure element ATECC608B as soon as possible, even if they say it's not critical issue.

If I understand correctly, I can't generate my seed words offline (using dices for example) and import them in Cypherock X1 in any way?
Maybe I want to use different wallet because I lost my Cypherock device, how can I use this cards with any other hardware or software wallets?
Last thing I wanted to ask, is it possible to use Cypherock X1 with Electrum wallet or any other software wallet?
3212  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Secure Element in Hardware Wallets on: November 25, 2022, 07:23:38 PM
Cypherock X1 hardware wallet is added to the list with full transparent information about secure elements and microntrollers.
This device is certified with EAL5+ certification, and it using one secure element for main device ATECC608A, and second secure element NXP JCOP3 is used in cards you receive in package with device.
Cypherock is using same outdated secure element like some other hardware wallets like ColdCard Mk3, Passport, OneKey Mini and Husky HDW20.
It's currently harder to find new chip version ATECC608B, but they should make replacement as soon as possible.
3213  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [LIST] Open Source Hardware Wallets on: November 25, 2022, 07:17:08 PM
New device is added to the list of open source hardware wallet and it is called Cypherock X1.
If you are interested in testing this device you can purchase it right now with Black Friday discount for around $100 plus shipping.
This hardware wallet is working in unique way and in package you receive one X1 wallet and four X1 Cards.
Cypherock code is available on github for inspection and iut was audited by Keylabs:

3214  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Foundation Devices 'Passport Batch 2' hardware wallet review on: November 25, 2022, 07:00:43 PM
Honestly, with this angle, it's not too bad that they can't offer a Black Friday discount. You do get a T-Shirt, though!
Nah, I don't want to wear T-shirt like this, but I think they already gave a big discount to everyone who participated in Batch2 presale, and you had to wait a long to to receive it Wink
I do like discounts and I think that Keystone did a great job this season of Black Friday, maybe because they started working on new generation device so they need founding.
I am excited to see how hardware wallet market will change in future, with Block wallet and Trezor Gen2 wallet releases probably coming out in next year or two.
3215  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers on: November 25, 2022, 06:43:48 PM
I think most homes have safes, right? Some houses used to come built with them in, and they were massive ones. You probably aren't going to be hauling that around, not far anyway. Most people put the deeds on their houses, and various other stuff in it. Unfortunately, they usually keep the key in the house, which obviously presents its own problems.
I don't think that's the case anymore since most people are living in tall buildings and flats, and I doubt each apartment has a safe.
People are still hiding their valuable things but they are mostly using hidden compartments or in walls, and some of them still trust the banks  Tongue
I honestly don't know many people who publicly say they own safe deposits in their homes and I never saw it myself, but nobody is going to brag in public about that obviously.
Getting back to steel washers, most people do own some basic home tools and steel washers, so nobody would be interested in them very much Wink

Nova serija koju nije loše pogledati je 1899, ali budite strpljivi u prvih nekoliko epizoda a i za ovu seriju će vam trebati titlovi ili dubbed verzija na Netflix-u.
Multinacionalni imigranti koji putuju sa starog na novi kontinent susreću se sa strašnom zagonetkom na drugom brodu koji pluta otvorenim morem.
Seriju 1899 su radili isti ljudi koji su radili Dark (2017), Baran bo Odar i Jantje Friese, pa će vam ovo biti dobro ako vam je i Dark bio.

3217  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Black Friday Hardware Wallet Less Known Deals on: November 24, 2022, 10:29:57 PM
You all probably know current Black Friday deals for Trezor (up to 30%), Keystone (up to 40%), ledger, Satochip, Cypherock X1 (75%) hardware wallets posted in forum, but I am here to show you few more less known deals I noticed for hardware wallets.

First one I saw is nice Black Friday discount for OneKey hardware wallet devices.
I won't talk much about OneKey, but they are biggest hardware wallet manufacturer in China/Hong Kong (I confirmed this from several sources) and their wallets are based on Trezor code.
OneKey Mini price is $58, OneKey Classic is $89, but on Black Friday deal you can buy both of them together in one package for $109.98.
You can also combine hardware wallets with aircraft-grade titanium metal seed backups, that are available in three other packages you can find on their shopping page.
This are some very good deals, but I am still waiting for Wallet Scrutiny to confirm they are actually open source like they say.


https://shop.onekey.so/products/onekey-hardware-wallet-package-for-black-friday



BitBox hardware wallet is offering 10% off everything plus 21% discount on our special Black Friday bundle, that includes Steelwallet, Backup cards and Tamper-evident security bags.



CoolWallet is offering big discounts (up to 100%) if you have enough collected diamonds in your CoinMarketCap account.
Standard Black Friday discount for CoolWallet devices is 15% this year, so CoolWallet S is around $84 and CoolWallet Pro is around $126 USD.





ColdCard Black Friday Sale is offeringf up to 25% off most products using promo CKBTC, ColdCard Mk4 is now $118.35.



HyperMate is offering 30% discount for their hardware wallets models G and Pro.
3218  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Celebrate Self Custody with Cypherock X1 50% Discount on: November 24, 2022, 10:00:15 PM
It actually is net 75% off which means $100. Updated the website & Coupon Code to resolve the confusion. New Code: NOSEED75
Ok, I can confirm this to be true after testing it myself on your website, and I think this is decent price compared to all other hardware wallets.
Current total price with this discount is exactly $99.5 USD plus shipping, so I am not sure that free international shipping statement is still valid.
You are shipping from India, right?

I believe we are definitely eligible to feature on the list!
I am adding you on this list of open source hardware wallets, but I have one more question for my other topic.
Are you still using outdated secure element ATECC608A for X1 wallet, or you switched to updated model ATECC608B?
There are some issues with older model and many devices switched to model B.

3219  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Foundation Devices 'Passport Batch 2' hardware wallet review on: November 24, 2022, 09:46:17 PM
Seed XOR and BIP 85
I think this is available only on ColdCard hardware wallet, and they have everything in CommonClause license, so I am not sure what license is for Seed XOR.
We all know they don't like anyone using their code, and some other wallets are using other ways to split seed words with Shamir Secret Sharing (Trezor T, Keystone, etc).
I think that multisig is much better than both of this seed splitting implementations.

Also, is there any reason there has to be a ten account limit?
This could be memory limitation related thing, but it's best to confirm this with developers.
I know that Trezor (and I think ledger) also have limited number of accounts you can create.

I'd still like to see them get external security audits done; not sure if they've done anything like that. It's usually quite expensive and with FE only having sold 1000 units total, I don't know that you can afford that at such small scale. But this is a security device so it should be a very high priority, now that they (hopefully) sell lots more devices with Batch 2 and onwards.
I think we all realize that you need to make big sponsorship and partnership with lot of third parties if you want to have big sales like ledger.
In return ledger is going to send them everything they ask, and they will add any shitcoins they pay for.
Passport only supports Bitcoin, so ponzi scammers like Sam Bankman can't promote their crap.

3220  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers on: November 24, 2022, 09:28:18 PM
Hammer the words into the back of the safe, then mount it to the wall. You don't need washers if you have a 30 kg steel box.
Than you don't need your laptop, you can use your National Supercomputer Snellius for managing Bitcoin and Electrum wallet, nobody is going to steal that  Tongue

It's a feature, not a bug. Who's going to steal a safe if the key is there and there's nothing of value in there?
Maybe not inside, but it's outside the box.
Someone who knows what you did (last summer) hammering that seed words on that steal box, could leak the information and someone could actually steal what is valuable.
Didn't you watch all the movies where thieves steal the safe deposit boxes because they can't open them quickly enough, than they could bring it home and examine it from all sides?
If you have safe deposit at home it's obvious that you have something valuable to hide.
