if there are inputs, wouldn't that mean it gets linked and the receiver could see a lot more than i want them?


Say someone bought 50 ltc.  Then bought another 5 ltc.  Now they going to send 6 ltc to someone.  Wouldn't the receiving person or site see the inputs and see... hey so this person received 50 ltc previously somewhere?  But had they sent max 5 ltc including fees... then the receiving person cannot see the 50 ltc address?

Any privacy issue with my nano ledger s though that way sending btc?



Going to get tiny amount of LTC... think between 25 and 50 dollars from a site.  They do not charge any fees at all.  Reason is because they are a gambling site and they charge no fees at all.  Don't believe they allow a 5 dollar withdraw and minimum is at least 25 or 50 dollars.



After i receive the LTC, i will do a 5 dollar LTC transfer to someone because i want to order something.  Then probably make few more 5 dollar LTC purchases later on.  So based on that, i want to know what is the best way for me to save on transaction costs.  Or should i just use btc to order something and pay the sending fees that way?  The reason why i want to use LTC is because if i use btc to pay that person or site, couldn't they see my transaction history of my btc from my nano ledger s?  Thus i want to stay more anonymous... so i figure since if i pay them with LTC, well that wallet would have at most 50 dollars and if they want to check my wallet history later on, well it won't have much there.  Does that make sense?  So since i use a nano ledger s for btc, wouldn't there be some privacy issues because if i send say 5 dollars worth of btc... they could see... hey my previous receiving transaction was say me receiving around 2000 usd worth of btc?



Now i do use a new receiving address each time i receive btc... so would privacy and transaction history be visible to the person i would send btc to?  Now if this is a new btc wallet on say electrum for example... and say i receive 50 dollars worth of btc... then send 5 dollars to the other person, well i don't care much because they could see i only had one transaction and its 50 dollars only.  Thus i want to show the wallet i send btc or ltc from is like from an everyday spending wallet... as oppose to holding wallet.  So thoughts on this?



So i want to not only save money on sending costs... but i want privacy.  i want to either send btc or ltc from an address where if you check the history, you don't see more than say 50 dollars total going through that address.  But ltc seem to be always cheap as a penny.



What should i do here?  Don't mind even a mobile wallet on my iphone for this as i want the wallet that im sending from to be like a spending wallet.

344  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Updating Apps Question on: May 10, 2022, 06:20:38 PM
Thanks for the response.  Well i know from previously... there are usually two firmware updates a year on average with the nano ledger.  i update ledger live usually a few days or week after there is an update as i don't want to do the update immediately in case of bug or issue etc. 



But i rarely every look at my apps installed and see if there is an update.  So basically each time i get ready to do a firmware update twice a year... i then look at my apps installed and they always are few versions behind.  So i estimate btc, bch apps usually have an update every one or two months or so.  But i don't pay attention or even look at it until i have to do a firmware update.  Since any transactions i do with the older btc, bch app apps doesn't seem to have an issue.  So most people here don't update their apps or check it like with ledger live updates?



Didn't think about firmware update taking more space where one of your coin apps get removed and not reinstalled because of lack of space.  Anyone had this happened?  Previous firmware updates has made many apps kb to be different correct from previous firmware?  So how much kb should you have left on your nano ledger s before you do an app update?  For example say you have around have 30 kb space remaining at the moment on your nano ledger s.  Would it be a bad idea in general to install enough apps where your nano ledger would show you have all the kb used up and 0 kb free?  Should you always leave say 2 kb free just in case?  Whether its in general or before a firmware update?  is it possible how some people say their nano ledger just suddenly reset... could this be a reason?  Do people here have their nano ledger completely full where there no kb space remaining at all?



Before you do any installed apps updates,  it show the new app version number for those coin apps.  But it still tells you how much kb it will use right?  So you can make sure you have enough space?  So shows 2gb currently used for your bch app... the new bch app update shows also 2kb... then it is exactly that right?  Thus it isn't l ike say 2.1 kb where now you might not have enough space?



Also when you do firmware update, does it tell you how much kb you need free on your nano ledger s before you do it?

With the second long number you posted... is that the total amount of addresses for the 12 word seed phrase?  If so, that is a lot.


What about how many total seed phrases for a 24 word seed?


Well the other thing is this.  When you look at how many possible seed phrases there are, aren't there going to be lot of seed phrases where some people will not use if say they see repeated words?  Example its been mentioned some people seed phrases could contain the same word twice.  Now imagine their seed phrase contain the same word say 6 times... surely someone might later choose another seed phrase later on if they are bothered by this?

LN i assume is lightning network.  Don't have clue about this.  But if i were to send btc from nano ledger and its in segwit... that is okay?


Well i want to know if it make sense to get LTC instead if i would send LTC to someone and don't want to pay a lot on fees.
350  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Current Sending Fee of BTC, BCH and LTC? on: May 10, 2022, 12:09:36 AM
Got those fee numbers from another site.


okay so btc sending fees right now are very low if you choose low or medium priority.  How do you check what was the low/medium/high sending fees previously like say hours earlier or week earlier.  Can you check that with mempool or its always a current sending fee now?


What exactly do you click on to check current BCH and LTC sending fees?  So basically from highest to lowest in fees... its always BTC, LTC and then BCH?  LTC seem to always be few cents from what i recall?  But BCH is at most one cent always?  So if you were to send small amounts to someone... say 5 dollars or less, it makes sense to use BCH or LTC usually?  Because even as low as the BTC sending fee is now... normally its bit higher? 
351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Sending Fee Question on: May 09, 2022, 11:46:00 PM
Say you want to send a small amount of crypto say 5 dollars usd worth... with the lowest fee possible... how much is it terms of usd wise to send


BTC
BCH
LTC


at the moment?



What site do you check?  Saw one site that shows sending these are the average fees.  Accurate?


BTC  0.000058 BTC ($1.81)

BCH  0.000018 BCH ($0.0042)

LTC  0.00018 LTC ($0.014)



Know you can adjust the sending fees on nano ledger for sending btc such as for low, medium or high.  But if you were to send BCH or LTC, what would you input for the sending fee?  Does the lowest fee you put still fast for BCH and LTC?  Always heard LTC is very fast.  Because if that is the case, why would anyone use BTC to send 5 dollars to someone or a site if they can use BCH or LTC and pay a penny?

354  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Updating Apps Question on: May 09, 2022, 11:19:58 PM
Mentioned that i usually update my ledger live usually a few days or a week or more after a new ledger live update to see if there are bugs or issues like that before updating ledger live.



Believe on average, i update the firmware of nano ledger twice a year since on average that seem to be how many times there is a firmware update... usually twice a year.  So each time that happens, i then check my apps installed and update those as well.  For example btc, bch and btg wallets when i check the apps installs, would show im running an older app.  So during the year when i use it few times, i rarely even check if any of my installed apps need updating and there doesn't seem to be issue sending or receiving btc even if im using an older version app of btc.  Anyone here like this or do all you people usually check every few weeks or so if your installed apps are up to date.  But when you do a firmware update, does it automatically update your installed apps or you have to still do it manually yourself?  Don't remember what happened last time when i did the firmware update.



Now the thing is i do not connect my nano ledger s that much to my laptop unless i am planning to send or receive.  Now i recently connected my nano ledger s to my laptop because i wanted to request btc from a site.  Got a receiving address and then copied it to the site for them to send the btc to.  Then when i went to my apps installed... btc, bch, etc... notice im using an older version of all the apps.  That is not surprising as i know each app has an update every month or two correct?  Anyone know how often btc and bch app have new versions?  Now my question is... there is no issue of me updating all my install apps on my nano ledger right now correct?  Reason is because since i requested btc from a site to the btc receiving address i got from ledger live... and will be waiting for the btc to hit my wallet, this will take a while as that site is slow with withdraws... there is no issue with me updating my btc, bch apps now right?  Or should i wait until the btc hit my wallet first and then install updates for all my installed apps on nano ledger?
355  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Sending and Receiving Address and Anonymity Question on: May 09, 2022, 11:06:57 PM
So with the nano ledger s, everytime i want to send or receive btc, i would connect my nano ledger s and go to that app and get a new send or receive address.  Then go and send or withdraw btc with that address.



As long as you are generating a new address each time whether you are sending or receiving crypto to a site or someone else, then there would be no transaction history where they could check your wallet history correct?  i remember back when i used electrum, i used the same receiving address many times but then people said you should not do that.  So anyone that uses the same receiving address over again many times would mean the sites or people they send crypto to ... would not only know their wallet history but could figure out how much crypto that person has?



Now let say you want to install a new app on nano ledger and say its litecoin.  Now when you install it and get a receiving address the first time and receive litecoin the first time to it, when you send some of that litecoin to someone else, there obviously is no history at all right except they could see you received x amount of litecoin the first time?  But each time you receive litecoin later on, you generate a new address because that way... the site or person who wants to see your wallet history, they could only see the movement of those litecoin to only that address?



So say they sent you 6 litecoin.  Whether you keep it in your wallet or then send some to someone else, it will never show you will ever have more than 6 litecoin ever right if they wanted to see your history right?  So say next time you want lot of litecoin, let say 50 of them.  if a site or someone send you that much, you generate a new litecoin receiving address so the 50 litecoin would show there?  So you would have say 56 litecoin between two different addresses?



But now say you want to send say 0.5 ltc to a site.  Will that 0.5 ltc be subtracted from the 50 litecoin you received address or the 6 litecoin you received address earlier?  Have to assume its from the last 50 right?  But what if you send say 53 ltc to someone.  Would that mean 50 would be deducted from the last 50 ltc you received and 3 would be deducted from the 6 you first received so the remaining 3 ltc you have minus the sending fees is in that first ltc receiving address?



But say you receive ltc 6 times.  Each time you use different receiving address.  is there a way you could choose which ltc address you want to use to deduct the next time you send ltc to someone or this isn't possible?  i remember you could do something like this with electrum back then with change addresses with btc?  But if you do this, there would be more fees?   is there more anonymity to it?   
356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto vs "the lucky dude" --- Is Bitcoin really SAFE? on: May 09, 2022, 08:33:23 PM
Can someone show me with numbers... and not like to the power of x ... the total amount of btc seed phrases there are right now... compared to the total possible number of possible btc addresses?  What percentage does it make up?  Would someone who generated a seed but never had any btc sent to their wallet even count as an active address?  But how would that person even know what their address is if they never check to see what their receiving address is on their nano ledger?  i believe that with electrum after generating a seed phrase, the default receive address is right there?



Also... there are some 12 word seeds and of course 24 word seeds.  Or you can't find this out but only know about the addresses?



What about other coins then like say electrum litecoin that only stores litecoin?  Do they use the same word list?  Thing is if you have tons of computers... how is it not possible to find just one seed phrase that has some coin of any type?  Surely you could hit some type of coin right?

US Citizen here but im abroad most of the year.  Where im located, i do have a utility bill in my name.


What crypto sportsbooks can i play on?  Remember i played on nitrogensports years ago and it was fine.  But now apparently they don't take US players?  Or is it only US players in the US?  im outside us and thus my ip address would show non us and would not be using a vpn etc.  But do they not allow us citizens so i cant play regardless?  Remember using binance abroad with no issues until they mentioned no us citizens allowed so i then had to withdraw my funds.  Had no issue using binance.com non us site for long time because i only logged in my binance account while abroad.


Are there crypto sportsbooks that do not have KYC or do they all do?  i have no issue with that but again im a us citizen so don't want any issue where a site kyc me and after i send in my usa id, well my utility bill is going to be a different country since well im abroad and you can see it from my ip address.  Heard someone mention nitrogen isn't that reliable anymore?  When did they ban us player?  So us players outside the us is fine?  Know many sites do that kyc thing where they ask for lot of documents only to stall and possibly lie or make new rules up so they won't pay your balance out so like to know this.  Or avoid all crypto sportsbooks?
