Oooh, thanks for the clear up.


That was lottery, not actual trading. UST could have gone to 0 very easy from there. Actually it still can and I don't know what chaos could a revert also do.
But yes, 40$ is not too much for a lottery ticket and now he can even cash in the initial investment and enjoy the ride.
But you should not be sorry. Crypto is young and there are plenty of opportunities around. Probably not for getting rich overnight, but still... Even more, the more conservative you are, it may take longer, but at least won't go south with the speed of light with this or that "investment".


The fact you have bought a lottery ticket doesn't make UST better, it only makes your hopes higher.
Good luck though.

If your friend has done this, sorry, but either your mentoring is not good, either he's ignoring it.
One should never invest what he doesn't afford to lose, and even more, investing into a new altcoin?!

Indeed, you seem to be correct (hence I was wrong here). I've looked around and I've found pages of transactions like these:



It looks like somebody is giving up the legacy addresses after all. Is it Binance? Maybe.

Actually buying low and selling high always brings profit. The condition is to indeed buy low and sell high and not the opposite.
And in order to avoid buying high when you thought you buy low, easiest is to DCA. As simple as that.

There are so many altcoins that have turned to dust I don't really see this one different. The only difference is the hype and the funds involved. But "tomorrow" another shitcoin will rise, bigger, shinier and will turn even more funds into some smart guys' pockets.
While I was thinking to invest a little into UST now, at ~20 cents a piece, I still think that bitcoin has a better chance to grow 5x than UST recover, so I didn't do that either.


I still fail to understand why did so many people invest so much money into a stable coin, especially a new one. Just because Bitcoin price has been going lower?! There are more established ones, backed by actual dollars for the job.

Verifying the ownership of an address can easily be done for free, by signing a message with the key of that address.
Even more, they should not care if it's your address or not.

On the other hand, as already said, it's a common practice of scammers to ask money - for whatever reasons - to transfer you some alleged funds (that don't exist and you'll never get).

This would prove nothing. It could prove that you don't know how to make a good business.
That's because even if 1 BTC = 1 BTC (always!), still, business is business

I don't have an answer for you, I will only link to correct file, since you've picked Electrum for LTC.
The error is the same.

Edit: I'll add that it might be that using the same server in both clients might work.

Sounds like you have no idea what you're talking about, but found the perfect time for trolling. But no worries, welcome to my ignore list.

And for those selling BTC: you'll make some people very happy, so, yeah, go on. It's your choice.
As OP greatly said: 1 BTC = 1 BTC.


I'm surprised that you don't understand. What you've done on bitcointalk since 2016?!

I see that @Apocollapse has edited his post and added evidence that our guy is yet another bounty scammer. So yeah, it's all crystal clear now.

There's a reasonably good chance that your transaction will be processed before Monday (possibly much sooner). Since you have proven limited knowledge in handling transactions, maybe waiting is a good option.
Or, I've seen in that screenshot that you have bump fee button too...(but I'm not familiar with the wallet you're using).

How much did you intend to send to Binance? 0.7 BTC?
Because if so, there may easily be that the address you don't recognize is another address in your own wallet and the 0.29 BTC is the change returning to you.
However, you have to check if that address is indeed yours.

I think that @achow101 should add there a tag (as long as no scams are involved neutral may do) stating whether it's his account or (most probably!) not.
While "achow" may not be so much uncommon, I would not expect it so much in.. Bangladesh.
But the 10 after it makes me rule out a coincidence, since neither achow, nor achow1 seem to be taken.

I would not expect too much implementation get done on this forum software, since we will eventually migrate to new forum software someday. (And afaik that's basically done and being polished.)

But if you are so much interested in the changes of a topic, you can use 3rd party, like https://ninjastic.space/post/60109353 , which can catch better some of the edits/versions (I don't know if all of them, I didn't care so much).
Even more, if you install the BPIP extension then you'll have at hand link to the post archive.

Good wallets show the fee in sat/vByte. The fee only makes sense in relation with the size of transaction. Any wallet that doesn't do that is doing it wrong and you should drop it.


Yes. Then the number of confirmations start to grow. Any transaction that is not confirmed was not mined and you cannot know if it will ever get mined.


Yes.


If it's a normal wallet, then the miners.
If it's an exchange or custodian wallet service, then part of the fee may actually remain in the hands of the service and only the (usually lower) fee you'll see on a blockchain explorer when you look out that transaction will go into miners' hands.

So we seem to get to normal cycle. This is fine. Just fine...

If there would be whales, why wouldn't they transfer their funds in a much smaller number of transactions?
It has looked to me more like a withdrawal/payout done by an entity to a huge number of addresses, especially as the fees are pretty much similar (which would not be the same if there would be competing trading or arbitrage bots). That's why I was asking.


Last time it may have been a competition between bots and probably the price was also going upwards.


Thank you.


If the price doesn't go up suddenly, I'd expect this get cleared before Monday. Else... that will be a shitshow, this is nothing yet.


I'd expect consolidation be big transactions, not many transactions. So I agree, this doesn't look like consolidation.

You're asking the wrong question. Even Earth itself will cease to exist after a while...


And I'll get back to DCA: it looks like 10th of May was a sort of trap and today was another pretty good opportunity to buy. If you DCA you still have funds for this kind of opportunities. (But I really don't know whether it'll go up and continue to go lower from here...)

Well, rewriting BIOS is almost too sophisticated for myself . I don't think I've done that (may have been doing it once many many years ago), but I may be able to find and follow a tutorial though.


Iirc repartitioning the HDDs can be done even from Windows' install DVD. Of course, I have an E2B stick with plenty of iso with tools, so I have where to choose from for the job if needed, some from Linux, some even under Windows. I mean that there's a much wider list of options.
And although I've used SDelete (yes, I'm a Windoze guy) here and there, I think that repartitioning does the job and wipe is overkill.


The problem is that most people don't have enough knowledge and their "inner threat model" will be silent, hence troubles like those signaled by OP.

If I had a way to buy Raspi Zero (preferably not W) not as overpriced as I see it nowadays, I would build a hardware wallet off it: https://seedsigner.com/
I sooo hate this chip shortage...
