Luckily, everything ended on a happy note this time. I am curious though. Since Dave managed to recover the passphrase rather quickly, was the string that you used anything similar to what you originally thought it could be? How different was the password compared to what you thought it was and what you submitted to Dave? Did it have any special characters, numbers, capital and lower case character combinations, etc. I would just like to know what can be brute forced within a few hours.

How I wish that this was true. What I see from all this mess is that a minority will switch to self-custody solutions while others will say they tried Genesis, FTX, Celsius, etc., they all failed them, so it's now time to move their money into Binance, Coinbase, or KuCoin...

You are forgetting they will be enticed to take part with a $20 voucher for McDonalds with unlimited Coca Cola refills or something similar that they will gladly accept. It's all about bread and circuses.

I saw my name mentioned in this thread by looking at my quotes and mentions with LoyceV's notification bot (this is not paid advertising), and I was certain I was mentioned because I was one of the winners. Turns out that's not the case. What a shame.

Sure, whatever gets your blood pumping.

It's also worth mentioning that the information shared by OmegaStarScream in the OP from Ledger's shop is somewhat different from what is written in the promo's T&C that I shared in my post. Under "How It Works" in this source, Ledger says:

First of all, what the hell is free BTC? But if we forget about the word "free", the explanation makes it sound like you need to purchase your Nano only with Bitcoin and no other payment methods.

But in the T&C, there is no mention of having to purchase the devices with Bitcoin to be given a voucher.

The terms only mention the fact that you need to make a purchase without specifying any payment methods. Since T&Cs have priority over other sources of information, it should work for any and all purchases. 

True. Still, the KYC verification (in case there is one) isn't done with Ledger, but with the 3rd-party service they use. Ledger is the connecting bridge between the user and the other company. It still makes no sense and is privacy invasive.

Damn it. This must all be because of Ledger and their crappy partnership with FTX that is causing these problems with Trezor's website and servers. I am sure dkbit98 will fill us in. Pun intended.
It wasn't working for me before either, but now it's up and running again.

I guess that depends where you are in the world. If you want to ship it to a country in the EU, you are looking at prices of €220-€230. The price you see is probably without VAT (non-EU, Asian, American countries). You have to take that into consideration depending on how much VAT you are required to pay and how big the amount is that doesn't require paying any duties in your country.   

I was just about to create a thread about it, but you were faster this time.

The promotion is valid from 21 November until 28 November.

The gift cards can be redeemed through Ledger Live’s Discover program by following the instructions provided in the physical cards that are part of the shipped package. The coins can then be sent to a BTC address of your choice (it doesn’t have to be an addy in Ledger Live). More information can be found in the Black Friday T&C.

Anyone considering taking advantage of this promotion should know that the bitcoins are sent by a 3rd-party Ledger service provider. If this party determines a need to undergo KYC, the user might be required to verify their identity before receiving their coins.

If it weren’t for the possibility of being asked to undergo KYC, I would say this is an interesting offer. But I’m not too fond of it. I also don’t know if Ledger can demask users and connect the names from order data with the codes that get claimed. It would be easier if they offered a $20 and $30 discount on their respective hardware wallets. My guess is they didn’t care to think of something better. They have already said they are getting 7x more sales following the downfall of FTX, so I assume they have already filled their pockets plenty. 

It's unfortunately not just exchanges that are sometimes late with adding support for Native SegWit addresses, it's also crypto exchanges and similar centralized services. This is not the place to mention any names, nor is it important at this point, but a very popular casino that has been around for many years was still not supporting Bech32 addresses the last time I checked. And it's a site I am sure everyone who is into gambling has heard of.

Maybe you are talking about this incident that involved a Ledger Nano S that was purchased from Amazon in the UK. The person who bought it, got a paper card already filled up with a 24-word seed. Not sure if the seed was also entered in the hardware wallet, but I am guessing it was.

I agree with what DdmrDdmr said in the OP. This can be a device that was tempered with by someone at Amazon, or it could be a hardware wallet that was bought by a different person altogether. It was that other person that set it up, wrote down the seed words, and then returned the device back to Amazon for whatever reason. The personnel who received it had no idea what they were doing, they just checked the contents quickly, noticed that everything seemed to be OK, and placed the package among the other ones waiting to be sold. 

Yeah the Black Friday deals haven't gone live yet. There is a paragraph under the first image in the blog post that says the prices on the Trezor shop will be updated in the next couple of hours.
A Trezor One for below 50$ is an excellent deal if you ask me. Let's see if the Trezor T will go below $200 with a discount...

I like this, and it's entirely possible that someone not that familiar with the terminology could mistake a passphrase for a password that protects access to the software. OP even said he didn't know about passphrases at the time of the setup and only found out about them by doing research for the issues he is currently experiencing.

Trying out common passwords you usually set (assuming you are using the same or similar password combinations) might help. What would happen if he started the passphrase generation, noticed something was off, but added a passphrase by mistake without entering a single character? Is that even doable?

It depends. What are you planning to do with these coins in the future? Since you have already done KYC, the exchange already knows who you are and how much bitcoin you have in your address/addresses. If you are planning to send the same coins to the same exchange at one point in the future, I don't see the need for a coinjoin. If the coins will be used for other purchases or everyday spending, it makes sense to break the link and start fresh. I repeat, will the coins go back to the same exchange in the future to be swapped for fiat or some other crypto when you are happy with your profit?

Several centralized exchanges have frozen withdrawals of their clients in the past after discovering that their coins have gone through mixers or coinjoin protocols. So it's safe to say they don't like it, and we will probably see more of the same.

I am a bit confused when you say you used change addresses. Did you transfer your coins to normal receiving addresses on your Trezor or to change addresses? It's the first time I hear about change addresses being displayed on a Trezor or Ledger software. You can see them in Electrum, but not in the native hardware wallet apps if I am not mistaken.

Maybe your firmware update messed something up. Again, I am unfamiliar with the workings of a Trezor and the "check seed phrase feature", but since you are certain you have the correct seed written down in multiple places, you could try to uninstall and reinstall the Trezor Suite and reset your hardware wallet to factory settings. After that, use the backup from seed feature, enter the correct seed, and see if that will bring everything back to normal.

No, you can't make that conclusion. Answer my questions from the previous post and tell the entire story please. A passphrase creates a totally different set of addresses, which would require you to move your coins from your non-passphrase protected addresses to the new passphrase-protected ones. Therefore, it can't be that you transferred your coins to a standard BTC address and then all of a sudden the coins went from there into a passphrase-protected addy or the software asks you for a passphrase. Unless there is a horrible bug we haven't seen or heard about before.

I am not a Trezor user, but I am pretty sure that the software isn't going to tell you: hey, you have a passphrase-protected account. Can you please enter your passphrase now! How did you reach the conclusion that it's a problem with passphrases and not something else? 

Try to provide more information first.

So you have a Trezor Model T. You set up your HW, generated a seed, and sent bitcoins to one of its addresses. Is it correct so far?
Have you checked and confirmed that the address on your computer is correct and matches the one displayed on your hardware wallet?

What happened next?
Did you try to recover your wallet from seed and when you did the wallet was empty?
If the wallet is empty, does it show any transaction history? If you check on a block explorer, are the coins still in the address you sent them to?  

How do you know that a passphrase is required?
Have you written down your seed properly and you are 100% certain of the words? Is it possible that you misspelled something?  

People worry too much if they don't see a quick confirmation and start to panic for no reason. Your bitcoins won't just magically disappear and end up in a hole with no bottom. That's especially the case if you are sending coins to yourself from Wallet A to Wallet B, and/or you don't need the funds urgently. Just let the mempools empty out and go about your everyday business.

The thing you should focus on OP is getting rid of that horrible and awfully created online wallet and get a good and functional one like Electrum, for example. If you had used a wallet with advanced coin control features, you could have taken advantage of its RBF or CPFP option and there would be no need for this thread. It's never too late to better yourself though.   

Isplate u Neodice kampanji su iste kao i u Betnomi kampanji. Dakle po trenutnom kursu to je nekih $40 tjedno. S obzirom da se slackovicu to nije svidjelo kod jedne, sumnjam da će i kod druge kampanje.

I just checked the rules, and this competition by BetFury fulfills the requirements to be listed in the OP. Everyone is allowed to participate and players don't need to submit any wagers to take part in the promotion.

It's also a bit different compared to the one that FortuneJack organized, for example. On FJ, you had to make your predictions before the start of the 1st match of the World Cup (which was yesterday). But with BetFury, you can predict the outcome of each match until that particular game kicks off. That allows you to take a look at the lineups before submitting your entries. So, new players can join the event throughout the whole World Cup.

It surely isn't that easy, and the bank would have to confirm that information with your credit card issuer. I am not sure what data about credit card transactions gets logged in their systems, but IP addresses and digital fingerprints are probably part of the log. One could scream they were a victim of carding if suspicious card activity was recorded on the different side of the globe with a completely new device. But if it's the same IP range that's been used for years and from the same devices, they will find out you are lying.

Considering that I never registered on the site (I did take part in FortuneJack's promotion) and didn't submit any type of information to be able to participate, I won't have to answer that question. But it's certainly a life-changing amount of money no matter where you live. If I won, I would make some basic research about LynxBetSuper7 because I never heard of that bookie until you mentioned it in this thread, and unless I found any red flags, I would undergo KYC and get my winnings.

There are exceptions as theymos explained in the post you quoted above especially if it's a service the admin knows about from previous advertising rounds. I am sure theymos will scrutinize it to check if it fulfills the requirements he has in his head before allowing it. The offer also needs to be high enough, and I doubt many private sellers will want to offer loads of money for new advertising space.
