It was a sick race. Imho the driver of the day, by far, was Russell and not Hamilton.

Ferrari did it again. In a bad way. Engine 2022v2 looks less reliable than 2022v1. What a pity, they've just made this season of F1 less interesting. I hope that they'll fix their issues, pronto!
Max was incredibly lucky to get the win with that mistake and all those DRS issues, especially as he seemed to not be able to handle well his frustration on the matter. Checo should have won in a fairer world.


And.. yeah, Hamilton vs K-Mag... did Hamilton do a short and sudden kick on K-Mag or not? I didn't get to see more than one replay, but it kinda looked like that.

I don't know about percentages but I've been also using Electrum before I've bought the Nano S, so it was a natural option.\
Also it's known that LL is buggy and whenever people get into oddities and seek for help here, most probably he also gets advised to switch to Electrum.

Other wallets? Afaik Sparrow wallet may also work with Ledger, Blue Wallet too, and I know for sure that Mycelium for Android also works with Ledger since I've used that.


In LL each new account means a different derivation path. You can see in their technical docs on derivation path:


As also stated there, a typical derivation is


I've seen posts about wallet software that didn't handle correctly / didn't also check the derivation paths of accounts different than the original one (i.e. account 0), hence scaring people that they've lost coins (they didn't).
Also afaik it's not written anywhere that the other account has this or that derivation path.

So nothing is usually lost, but it's still troublesome for newbies when they wanted to recover or switch to another wallet software. Unfortunately I don't have exact examples at hand.

Thank you!
Happy Pizza Day!

Unfortunately, exactly like you, people come here after they've got scammed, instead of doing a little background check before entrusting a random website to hold their coins.
And yeah, you're, by far, not the first one complaining...

Sorry for your losses.

This is the best plan to keep hungry people busy. Make a new shitcoin, call it EURO USD GOLD to make sure you didn't miss anything important and give it to everybody. Best is to ask them also do some work for you in exchange (to keep them busy, remember?).
This new coin will be totally worthless, since I don't expect you have the billions of billions (or tons of gold) to back it and you can give all the APY you want (because 0 multiplied with everything you want it still 0).
The only flaw is that since it's worthless, the exchanges will most probably not accept to trade it, since they want actual profit.

And yes, everybody will be rich, at least in their dreams.


Sorry, unless you are a rich country's government, this won't work.

Here you already lost me. Do you use Electrum with the hardware wallet? If so the seed and keys should be safely on the hardware wallet and you can just fire up Electrum on the new computer (after you made sure you've downloaded it from electrum. org and verified it), plug the hardware wallet (depending on the make) and select in Electrum that you have hardware device; Electrum will handle the rest.

So please clear up if your Electrum actually contains the wallet seed or you use it with HW. It's important.


I hope that you know that you'll have to wipe the wallet files (and maybe the free space too) in order make sure others won't recover your wallet, right?
Of course, if your computer does/did contain private key/seed.


First of all, the wallet handles this for you. Second, it depends on the wallet; I do use Electrum with Nano S and there's no private key not seed touching my computer.
Third, your setup doesn't make sense because if you have malware it can record your Electrum password and send it together with the wallet file next time you go online, whenever that happens. What would stop it from doing that?!


I have a feeling you've misunderstood and mixed up some things big time.
A hardware wallet is not a dumb USB stick. The signing doesn't happen in a process in your laptop's memory and most probably it just gets the unsigned transaction and sends it back signed.


However, maybe it's better if you tell if you use the hardware wallet with Electrum (so we don't have to guess where the keys are to give you better advises) and maybe what make/model is that HW (at least to know it's indeed a hardware wallet).

From what I see after P2, the Mercs have indeed got improved. They seem to be dangerous again, they seem to be back in the fight for podium.

Yeah, keep interpreting everything in your own special manner in order to find "mistakes" everywhere and keep on with your odd narrative, you're doing great job polluting everything.

You've picked the wrong guy. I don't think that LN is Bitcoin 2.0; LN is LN.


I don't care at all how it's called. And I don't care what was initially designed for.
It was improved, it seems to do well enough the L2 job for Bitcoin and it helps. Imho this is what matters at the end of the day.
You don't like it, don't use it.

As said, it is possible; cold storage is never connected and still can sign.
You seem to have misunderstood some things. Also as said, the fact you just temporarily start the internet connection doesn't help at all to your funds' security. I've even read (here, on bitcointalk) about somebody doing this same approach thinking he has cold storage; sadly, he got his funds stolen.

So your wallet is hot wallet, no matter you open internet connection only now and then.
If you want added security, consider one of the following:
* learn to use cold storage properly; it's cheap and easy to set up with Tails OS and a lot of reboots.
* buy hardware wallet
* generate safely (but not this kind of bad half-safety, please) a new seed, write it down, write down one of the related addresses, keep the significant funds on this like a paper wallet; the (smaller) rest of the funds can remain on the hot wallet (i.e. at risk).

They don't create a virtual address. They do create very real and good addresses. Afaik all crypto wallets can create new addresses by request. And yes, their software works together with one or more wallet software (depending how many coins/chains they support).
Then they add an entry to a DB telling that addresss X1 on chain (for coin) C1 (possibly different row or table for each coin they support) is a deposit address for user U1. Whenever the wallet will receive funds to that address, a trigger will be called checking the number of confimrations. If a threshold is met, they put for U1 in their own database that he has +x coins in the table related to the deposited coin.

From that moment they can spend the coins from the deposit address (eg for U2 withdrawal on the same coin) and U1 account still remains credited.

Clearer?

When I've read the topic I was thinking: tulips? LOL!  (no offense, one has to have fun now and then)


You're right, but there's a big "but":
One has to learn first. One has to understand the ways, else he will only waste time and money instead of getting any plants.
One has to sell plants with good potential, else the customers' plants will keep dying and the bad reviews may become a rule, not an exception.

This is how I see it. Plants are alive and it's not that easy to handle them. Also not all of them are suitable for any place in the world.

I strongly agree to this.

@Israelgogo:
Keep in mind that not all here have English as mother tongue and some may sound overly harsh without intending so, because of let's say unfortunate choice of words.

Also, there are people used to use strong words on the daily basis.

Also, one has better and worse days, hence more patience now and maybe less at some other point.

Keep in mind that even unpolite answers can be useful. A common saying around this forum is "grow a thicker skin" (and maybe it sounds a bit strange, it's very correct and very useful). Learn to get the best of everything and ignore the rest (move on). And if you don't like the "writing style" (heh) of one or another, you always have a powerful tool at hand: the ignore link.

I will add that:

1. You can also transfer the actual wallet files to the new computer and load them up in the new Electrum (in most of the cases there will be no error), and if you get errors/issues then you can go on the seed phrase approach.
2. If your computer has malware, it can steal your wallet file and password and hence your funds even without getting directly the seed phrase(s).


While I agree with @Lucius' post, for scanning I usually (also) look for images I can burn on CD/DVD, boot from them and use the AV scanner from there. Some of the major AV providers do offer such images for free (just make sure that at running those you check for updates too).

And yes, if the amount of money there is significant, you should consider either acquiring a hardware wallet, either learning how to make your own cold storage.

I didn't work with TRON network, but it seems to not be supported yet by Ledger Live.


You should never enter the hardware wallet seed in other software or website, that is against what hardware wallet is meant for.
It seems though that you can use Ledger wallet with Tron scan to do the job:

If you have your own mempool, maybe consecutive calls of estimatesmartfee with increasing (or decreasing) parameter would do.
Or you can find web based mempools that allow API calls like https://mempool.space/api/v1/fees/mempool-blocks and parse/interpret the results, just make sure you're within the allowed amount of API calls for the platform(s).

Did that platform you bought from give a transaction ID about your coins?
It should be a long string that looks like this one: f7360e4fa149adb8354ffdc52e4ae511c37afdef8859d21a497118f0760201d2
(I've just taken the transaction ID of a random transaction)


If they did and you don't have a problem showing it, you can post that here (but please make sure you don't post private key).
Or (if you have no problem showing) you can post the address you're expecting the coins arrive to (and again, please make sure you don't post private key).

Or you can post the address or transaction Id to website like https://mempool.space/ and see for yourself if
* the new transaction you expect did come
* the new transaction is confirmed or not

Electrum and Ledger Live are only software handling the private keys and transactions.
The money is neither on Ledger, nor on Electrum.
I use Electrum with my Ledger Nano S.
So you have to understand first what you're talking about.


Cold storage is about how you handle your wallet. What you have is not exactly cold storage. Cold storage imho needs a device (computer?) that's never connected to the internet.
If you want to understand better what happens with your coins I think that you should use Electrum with your Nano S, enable the Addresses tab, give new unused address for each new withdrawal, label the addresses, use  the "spend from" feature to spend only from certain addresses for certain sites so they don't know so well what coins are from where (although the Electrum server will know, like the Ledger Live server did, and to obtain more advanced privacy you need a setup I believe you cannot do now).


That "main account" is just a sum. If you use what I've said a couple of lines before, you can avoid this problem.


If you use more than one "account" you may get surprises when recovering your wallet, I've seen that before and I don't like that approach.
As I said, I use Electrum with Ledger, labels, spend from.

Just as a note: if you go on this path, please select "use with hardware device" and not enter your seed (never enter your wallet's seed anywhere else than your hardware device and backup papers).

Hm.. pai a mai fost un task asemanator la Unijoin. Nu mi s-ar parea normal sa particip din nou, mai ales ca treaba dinainte nu s-a terminat, iar ei nici nu au raspuns la toti, nici nu cred ca au rezolvat toate problemele semnalate.
Plus ca aia 5$ s-ar putea sa acopere doar costurile cu tranzactiile (de la si catre tine) + comisionul mixerului, deci cu tot respectul, eu ii zic "pas".
