Hi, I'm trying to withdraw my bitcoin to a UK bank account. I've tried Binance and Coinbase and neither offer the service. Does anyone know which platform I can use to convert BTC to GBP and withdraw to a UK bank account or credit/debit card?

As mentioned above, P2P is one way to do it but then it depends on which bank you're using. If you have an account with Revolut for example, then I probably wouldn't suggest doing so. There is a high chance that they'll freeze your account. This is a post I was reading earlier:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Revolut/comments/179yquk/can_i_get_banned_for_binance_p2p/

Alternatively, you can also try and find a good debit card for the U.K from here. See here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5280997.0

That way, you can just deposit your BTC and withdraw from an ATM.

The problem with BTCPayServer is that it requires installing a full Bitcoin node and that requires more server resources or a third party in case I go with lunanode option. Therefore I feel more comfortable to use electrum merchant api and. It's much less hassle, other than getting it to work with my Django app. What I'm trying to achieve is receiving Tether, for evading volatility and a more classic accounting. I can live with a %1 fee if it gets the trouble of writing the payment gateway myself out of the way. Atlos.io has all I need, but there seems to be no one who have actually used their service and written a review in the last year it came out  Undecided .

Coinbase Commerce (as I suggested above) does support USDT but only for ERC20 and not the other networks. It's non-custodial, and you don't need to go through KYC unless you want to link your Coinbase account for automatic fiat conversions.

Another way (since you seem to have the technical knowledge for it?) would be to just accept BTC and then write something that would use an exchange's API to convert the BTC to USDT as soon as you receive the funds.

BTCScan or BscScan? The latter is a Binance's smart chain explorer, and not a bitcoin one. Also, Bitcoinexplorer(dot)com doesn't look like an actual blockchain explorer either. Do you mind posting the URL?

I would go with mempool.space, Blockchair, or Blockchain.com. Just make sure the TXID has your address.
385  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I was ripped off on: October 16, 2023, 08:26:10 PM
 If the transaction is confirmed, there's isn't much you can do to reverse or cancel the payment, but if you have more information about this individual, maybe you can take it to law enforcement.

Can you post the address/TXID?
386  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Staking on: October 16, 2023, 07:05:15 PM
I haven't, but according to their FAQ (see this[1] for more details), they are using KILN as a partner to allow their users to stake their funds which according to them is a non-custodial solution and shouldn't give them access to your funds.

Seems early and unexpected. No other sources confirming this though other than Cointelegraph tweet https://twitter.com/Cointelegraph/status/1713908025520538079. This is probably a wrong/fake news.

You're right. I deleted the post now. Apparently, that was false and some journalist from Fox has confirmed that with BlackRock[1].

We can already see how the price is starting to go back to what it was. It's crazy how many crypto sites have already written about it without confirming anything.

1. The fees are calculated based on the transaction size (number of inputs and outputs) as well as how congested the network is.
2. The fees go to the miners.
3. No, two transactions cannot have the same TXID.

Just saw an ad from Thorwallet on Reddit. Apparently, they now offering Visa cards (only available for Europeans only):

https://www.thorwallet.org/card

I haven't tried their card, but AFAIK they're legit and the project is backed by the same team behind Thorchain/Thorswap projects.

I think I came across it before, but can't tell for sure. For the alternative, you've got this list:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5444578.0

If you want to accept BTC only, then the best option (that would require some work from your side) is to use BTCPayServer otherwise, for other cryptos Coinbase Commerce, they do have a self-managed that doesn't require KYC.

لقد تم اضافة التطبيق من جديد كما وضحته الشركة[1] و هو ظاهر هنا[2]

في رأيي المشكل الحقيقي لم يكمن في حذف التطبيق في حد ذاته، لكن الأضرار التي كانت يمكن ان تقع بسبب ال phishing attacks في حال بقي التطبيق غير متوفر لمدة طويلة.

على أي حال، ميتاماسك قد تكون من أفضل التطبيقات على الحاسوب، لكن بالنسبة لتطبيق الهاتف، فصراحة لا أعتقد أني رأيت أسوأ منها.

So it looks like the SEC has decided[1] to not appeal the court's decision regarding Grayscale's conversion of the Futures ETF to a Spot ETF[2]. So now, there is a lot of speculation that we might get to see the first bitcoin ETF approved (Ark Invest) by the 10th of January. Thoughts?

هل يوجد سبب لعدم استخدامك للمنصات للمركزية؟ حتى و ان لم تكن تريد اثبات هويتك، هنالك بعض المنصات التي لا تطلب تعريف الهوية.

بطبيعة الحال، الحد الأقصى للسحب سوف يكون صغيرا نوعا ما, و سوف تضطر الى القيام بعملية البيع على عدة أيام، لكن على الأقل لا توجد نفس المخاطر كما هو الحال عند التعامل مع أشخاص اخرين
395  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Any one have experienced before the same problem in p2p not showing currency on: October 12, 2023, 10:27:36 AM
Sir this is not a network issue because I am already using the binance app for trading and I never facing the issue of network

I just saw the screenshot. Since it doesn't look like you have any filters ON either,  you should probably contact the support and ask them for help.

Alternatively, you can try to use the web version instead and trade using it for now: https://p2p.binance.com/en/trade/sell/USDT?fiat=PKR&payment=all-payments
396  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Any one have experienced before the same problem in p2p not showing currency on: October 12, 2023, 10:19:52 AM
Need a suitable solution for the p2p section whenever I open the p2p for buying or selling the currency but not showing any currency..when I uninstall the binance app then again installed then worked but after few seconds again same problem.

By default, you should have the USDT offers for EUR showing. So what is not showing exactly? the list of currencies after you selected either EUR or USDT to switch to something else?

If it's a network error as mentioned above, you should have get an error message displaying for a couple of seconds after you visit the P2P page.

So, it's live[1]. Here's what they released:

- Brand new wallet (Trezor Safe wallet 3) with secure element + more supported cryptocurrencies, as well as OLED screen: https://trezor.io/trezor-safe-3
- Metal backup for your seedphrase
- And a limited edition bitcoin-only wallet.

If you can't access the link above, it's due to high traffic.

398  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: ZK-proof on Bitcoin on: October 11, 2023, 05:15:05 PM
Are there any designs on how the zero knowledge proof will be calculated? I imagine this can be eventually be added into Bitcoin Core cli and graphical with a command to generate the proof of the blockchain up to a certain height, after which the proof can be included in future Bitcoin Core builds to skip the first N (thousand) blocks.

Not as far as I know, I couldn't really find much about it but maybe BitVM whitepaper (made by Robin linus too) as mentioned above might give you an idea of what to expect (just went through it quickly so not sure)[1][2].

Just in case someone here was touched by the hack, but is not following their social media, here's their latest announcement[1] about this matter.

But in short: everyone affected will receive 100% of the the lost funds in USDT (on Polygon) and an extra 10%.

What is AMLBot please? I've never heard about it before. It certifies that your funds are clean?

You know how sometimes, an exchange claims that they have detected suspicious activity when you make a deposit? and wants to confirm the source of funds. It's usually because they use something like this[1]. AMLBot does a similar thing, but unlike ChainAnalysis, it's available for public use. Now, I'm not sure how good it is but I would imagine it's good enough if they are indeed used by 500+ companies as they claim. It's paid though, but you can try it if you'd like, they offer a free trial (one address) through their Telegram bot.
