As far as you all know, I would not have these files if I just bought a normal corrupted one date wallet file
So you bought a scam-wallet with additional files. You're wasting everyone's time.

@LoyceV he said that he didn't buy the wallet
That's such a weird and oddly specific thing to say for a Newbie with a problem Roll Eyes
3462  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [Linux Electrum] Why is "blockchain_headers" larger than it's Size on Disk? on: August 10, 2023, 08:30:25 AM
The major answer to this is when there is automatic or inbuilt compression gotten from one’s operating system
Nope.

or again if the file in question is a sparse file
That's a Microsoft link, but you may be on to something: "sparse files" exist on ETX4 too. It looks like that's what Electrum is doing, there must be a lot of empty space in the file. That brings the next question: why not just delete the empty space?
3463  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [Linux Electrum] Why is "blockchain_headers" larger than it's Size on Disk? on: August 10, 2023, 08:05:06 AM
Probably Compressed in some way?
Nope, my file system doesn't support compression.

I didn't expect Tinyurl to actually support onion links. Not bad!

Quote
you'd be sending users to clearnet to get the DNS resolution and the redirect.
So you'd need a separate, decentralized "lookup system" for .onion links. I can imagine this would be something that can be done with a blockchain: all users download all blocks, and once a short name is in there, it can no longer be changed. Then "duckduckgo.onion" would expand to it's full URL, but only if they're the first to claim it.
3465  Bitcoin / Electrum / [Linux Electrum] Why is "blockchain_headers" larger than it's Size on Disk? on: August 10, 2023, 07:46:20 AM
See this image:
Image loading...
Electrum's file blockchain_headers is larger than the disk space it occupies (on a Linux system).
How can this be? Normally, files take slightly more space on disk (because of the disk block size), not less.
3466  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: REWARD 1 BTC! Electrum wallet help me! on: August 10, 2023, 07:31:03 AM
I have blockchain_headers files with a size of 46 kilobytes
Are you sure you don't mean megabytes?

I tried restoring via private keys, but generally gives out other addresses with a balance of 0
Where did you get those private keys?

Quote
I tried to restore using a seed phrase but gives me wallets without a balance and with old ones transactions, that is, the balance is 0
Are those transactions coming from the addresses you thought had funds? If so, your wallet if empty. If not, you have the wrong seed phrase or you may have to "Extend this seed with custom words" to get to your other wallet.



It helps if you write a clear overview. It's hard to read if you throw everything in one very long sentence.

Those won't work for our case, there is a huge difference between sound dampening and soundproofing, what we need is the latter, sound dampening is important for recording studios and all, but they are poor in soundproofing because acoustic panels have very low-density/mass and thus they won't help much with soundproofing.
In that case: I guess an underground man cave isn't an option?

Quote
could you explain this further? how would noise escape up and not to the sides?
It's the same principle they use then building sound barriers (between roads and houses).

A question for the whole community: would you prefer a dark theme?
Definitely. Easier on the eyes.
I don't need it. I often see people ask for a dark mode, is that because of sloppy brightness control on their screen? Phones by default nowadays are too bright, and automatic adjustment doesn't work well (at least for the last 2 phones I've had). So that means I manually adjust the brightness on several screens a few times per day, but I never use a dark mode.

Even if you dropped the price to $100, it's unlikely anyone would buy them from you.
If it's dust on the Bitcoin blockchain, it may be worth a few cents if transaction fees drop low enough.
3471  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Collection of 18.509 found and used Brainwallets on: August 09, 2023, 06:47:18 AM
So, I was wondering if there is anyone that cracked all or most of the remaining 611 addresses (list below).
Probably. But they have no incentive to share the private keys, they're just quietly waiting for a deposit to be the first one to snatch it.

I also haven't seen whirlwindmoney member in forum since July (more than a month ago), and it would be nice to hear something from them about this issue.
^This is my main problem.

I guess that if WhirlWind wants to act in a professional manner, first of all they should be more present on the forum and also be supportive when customers ask for their help through emails...
It's like they went from being very active to nearly inactive on Bitcointalk overnight. That doesn't inspire confidence in a custodial service.
3473  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin peers connection = 0? How to download blockchain? on: August 09, 2023, 06:27:56 AM
It is slow, at 80.24%, 5 weeks remaining.
1 peer connected.  Nothing else I can do.
Have you tried manually adding nodes from the Console (click Window > Console)?
Code:
addnode "node" "command"

Attempts to add or remove a node from the addnode list.
Or try a connection to a node once.
Nodes added using addnode (or -connect) are protected from DoS disconnection and are not required to be
full nodes/support SegWit as other outbound peers are (though such peers will not be synced from).
Addnode connections are limited to 8 at a time and are counted separately from the -maxconnections limit.

Arguments:
1. node       (string, required) The node (see getpeerinfo for nodes)
2. command    (string, required) 'add' to add a node to the list, 'remove' to remove a node from the list, 'onetry' to try a connection to the node once

Result:
null    (json null)

Examples:
> bitcoin-cli addnode "192.168.0.6:8333" "onetry"
> curl --user myusername --data-binary '{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id": "curltest", "method": "addnode", "params": ["192.168.0.6:8333", "onetry"]}' -H 'content-type: text/plain;' http://127.0.0.1:8332/
 (code -1)

This should add mine (feel free to use VPN of course):
Code:
addnode "192.3.47.231:8333" "onetry"

Everyday, the sun beams to earth about 10,560 BTUs of energy per square foot.
source: https://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/ae/ae-99.html#:~:text=Everyday%2C%20the%20sun%20beams%20to,available%20at%20the%20earth's%20surface.

1 BTU = 0.293 watts
so 10,560 BTU = 3,094 W per square foot
1 square meter = 10.76 squer foot
3,094 * 10.76 = 33,291w
1kw = 1000w
33,291w = 33.291kw per square meter.
You're confused with the units (and imperial units don't help). I already gave you the number: 1362 W/m2 (high in the atmosphere). When calculating in watt, there's no reason to use BTU (or even joule). You took a unit of energy per day, and incorrectly converted that into a unit of power.
To start: 1 BTU/h is 0.293W. When you forget the "per hour", you'll end up with a 24 times larger number per day. So it would be 33.291kWh/m2/day, or much simpler: 1362 W/m2.

ya, a lot of that is lost along the way, but really, 0.25mw is not a lot as far as ambient is concerned
Let's call it 0.25MW.

have you ever walked next to a hotel or a large building and felt that it was "strangely warm" in the street? ya standing on the exhaust side of the HVAC or near the external ACs units will be too hot, but just by walking around, it would be hard to tell if the building is consuming 1mw or none just by the "feel of it".
Aren't those exhausts usually at the roof of large buildings?

Quote
what happens when you put 20 patio heaters inside the house and walk outside, are you still going to feel the heat? probably nothing much unless there is enough airflow forcing that heat to your direction
Correct. And you're blowing all this heat out.

Quote
I have personal experience walking in and out of mining farms as large as 2MW, it's only warm at the exhaust side because heat is being pushed outside into that direction, walking around the other 3 walls you feel nothing.
So my concern is unnecessary. I haven't been in mining farms, I've been in (very big) power plants though, but they used water cooling or cooling towers.

Quote
We don't have the ACs in place yet, the noise is coming out the wall and more so from under the door, but sound travels in all directions so it goes through everything at different levels, there is at least a 20db drop between door open and close, but generally, it's not close to as quiet as we need it to be.
Have you considered acoustic wall insulation (see Dutch webshop)?
3476  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Collection of 18.509 found and used Brainwallets on: August 09, 2023, 05:02:21 AM
The most interesting files are probably: brainmaster.tab and attacksrc.tab files. They contain a list of more than 19k addresses identified to be protected with a brainwallet

I wonder if there is anyone who cracked all addresses from Vasek's list? Probably not. Then, how many of them remain a mystery to you, still?
That's easy to check: get all Bitcoin addresses with a balance and find the duplicates. There's only one:
15Mjbr23k7LfadNVAMmFZwdzcL5VFHe9gC.
There's 0.001 BTC in there since 2014.

I think you scraping the older topics, maybe only for a certain period, and If someone changed the title, your bot still displays the older version.
Correct, I only display the title as I first scraped it. That works okay for mosts topics, and reduces my scraping needs.
3478  Economy / Reputation / Re: LoyceV's notification bot (7 days retroactive) on: August 08, 2023, 10:02:41 AM
I noticed some missing topic titles in my own notifications. I think this was caused by the last month's DDOS downtime. I'm currently scraping all missing titles (and many of those don't exist anymore because the topic was deleted). This will take about 3-4 days to complete.

Consider this a bump Smiley

the cards are 100% created by Icarus and are then also sent by us to the respective users by me personally.
we also guarantee that no sensitive data (in this case the private keys) will be stored by us and will be deleted immediately after production.
How about shipping addresses? Are those stored? Ideally, you shouldn't even know who receives which card: shuffle them, and put them in envelopes without looking at them.
