381  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: PwC Luxembourg announces plans to accept Bitcoin payments on: September 03, 2019, 03:39:42 PM
I'm sorry, but i'm quite confused? What exactly is PWC?
Is this them? https://www.pwc.co.uk

Do they offer some sort of services? Never heard of them before.

Quote
PwC is a network of firms in 158 countries, 721 locations, with 250,930 people.[4] As of 2018, 28% of the workforce worked in Asia, 28% in North America and the Caribbean and 30% in Western Europe.[7] The company's global revenues were $41.3 billion in FY 2018, of which $17.06 billion was generated by its Assurance practice, $10.45 billion by its Tax practice and $13.78 billion by its Advisory practice.[8] PwC provides services to 420 out of 500 Fortune 500 companies.[4]
Interesting, but still quite unclear what exactly these services pertain.  (Or how and why their clients would pay them in cryptocurrency. I can't imagine any fortune500 company would want to do so.)

Looks like tax laws and evasion of it is their main expertise. Hmm. “This is good for bitcoin?”

They are individuals and the forum administration is not responsible for these people and whether they're filling their taxes or not.

So, I can sell illegal drugs too, the the forum administration is not responsible for anything?
No one is going to stop you selling anything in this forum but there are people called DT who may distrust you for such behaviour but still you can buy or sell illegal things and you are responsible for doing such things.
Uhh i don't think that that's true.
Things which are illegal by law in the US, (or not a grey area such as private lending with interest), will most definitely be removed by the forum administrators.

such as arms dealing, carding etc. allowing to turn this site into a blackmarket will get it shut down real fast.
383  Economy / Services / Re: How to make a list off all the privatekey available? on: August 30, 2019, 04:33:11 PM
Hello everyone,

I am trying to make a bitcoin private key list website.
I know that there are allready a few running like: keys.lol .
But i want to make a own one because i have a new(/bette) idea.
But i can't find a list of all the private keys that are available.

I was wondering or someone could help me with making a list of all the private keys.

Thanks in advance!




Regards,
Lars
Open your bitcoin core wallet and start generating them Tongue

But i can't find a list of all the private keys that are available.

As said in many places, including keys.lol you seem to be familiar with, a private key is basically a number in the 1-2256 range.
So .. you'd like people propose random numbers?

And if you mean "leaked" private keys, from addresses that had at least one tx, I guess that you can find them using search engines, I don't know what would be the use for them though...
Something like this? https://allprivatekeys.com/bitcoin-address-with-balance
But these also just look like they're programatically generated by the owner of the site (useless.)

(Although i neither can find any reason why leaked privkeys with previous transactions would be useful either.) Perhaps for some analytic purposes but all the data would be flawed in the sense that it'll be based on nothing really.

384  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Recover BSV sent to a BTC address on: August 30, 2019, 03:08:24 PM
I sent BSV on my BTC address by hurrying (yes, it's clever ...) and I would like to know how to recover (if it is possible).

What type of address your Bitcoin address is? Does it start with 1, 3 or bc1? Both Bitcoin Cash and BSV don't support SegWit so recovering your coins won't be easy. As far as I remember, someone used to recover coins of Bitcoin Cash users for a small fee.
BC1 shouldn't be recognized as a valid adress format by Bitcoin "S" cash (or whatever the name is), which leaves 3... segwit as the most likely culprit.

I have no idea how you can ever recover that, but you're right i think there was a way to do so..? - https://news.bitcoin.com/hundreds-bitcoin-cash-stuck-segwit-addresses-might-way-get-back/ weird way..

Another guide here, https://support.edge.app/support/solutions/articles/8000068596-how-to-recover-my-bch-if-i-accidentally-sent-into-a-bitcoin-segwit-address-on-edge-

// So basically you need a miner to add a non-standard transaction to their block (?) pffff
Well lets see if this is actually the case for OP, and if it's not some other issue..
385  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Chainalysis research reveals: only a small percentage of mixed coins are illegal on: August 30, 2019, 02:37:26 PM

Mixers are centralized services built on top of blockchain technology. They have absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin's resistance to censorship, regulations, irreversible transactions, etc.

If mixers refuse to mix stolen coin, this has absolutely nothing to do with reversible transactions or censorship on Bitcoin network

Bitcoin will continue existing without any modifications if mixers disappear.

I think that if mixers just go on mixing stolen coins, they will soon be all shut down by authorities. And for good reason. Do you support drug dealers? International weapon traffic? This has nothing to do with Bitcoin. This is  a centralized service built on the top of it.


Edit: people some times get a little delusional about this. Imagine a physical store with a sign "money laundry for criminals, come and make your money clean! Fighting censorship!"
This is just ridiculous. Criminals are specially the ones who censor us the most. Criminals make us afraid to walk at night, they force us to put bars on windows, alarm in our houses, lock our doors.... criminal activities should never be encouraged.

Maybe you live in a country where criminal activity is near zero and you have some crazy ideology about criminals,but they are not nice.
Yeah i think you're the one who might be a bit delusional about this concept. Or perhaps i am.

The idea that there's some sort of morality you need to support about stolen or laundered coins in the first place is just crazy in my opinion. Do you have any idea how much drug dollars each year is laundered through central banks (Deutsche is a prime example, but almost every bank does it.) They get some minor fines compared to the amounts that they actually laundered and go on about their day.

Most of these (partly state-owned) banks thrive on such business, and yet they want to burn down every mixer because ~11% may contain funds from illegal sources?

the government puts on a facade but in the end they're the one who perpetrated certain crises such as the opioid one to get black budgets, (not to mention the money they make from these fines, and stimulations of the economy due to the laundering money. etc.). (CIA)

I'm a bit of a lolbertarian so perhaps that's why i think this way. Anyhow...



A mixer is simply a tool to get absolute privacy and freedom of transacting money without worrying about someone investigating certain things about these transactions. An absolute "Right To Financial Privacy Act"- Something i would perhaps deem a human right. That such a tool is misused by criminals is an unfortunate side effect, but doesn't mean that we all of a sudden should give up our right to privacy.

Comparably is the spying on law-abiding citizens by looking at their ISP data etc. Just because there might be some terrorists out there we shouldn't just give up all of our personal privacy, and rights to private communications.

Why isn't every major bank shut down by now... because they have "regulations in place" which gives them a carte blanche when caught?

Anyway, note that i absolutely do not support any of the above mentioned, hackers, laundering etc, and that i am also not aware chipmixer is used as a vehicle on a grand-scale for these types of people.

administrator of this forum without any knowledge of programming. I have read his post from the very first one and nothing indicates he had any knowledge of programming.
Bitcointalk are Big forum have over 2.6 Million member need knowledge of management. And not necesarry know about programing.
Manager can recruit people who have knowledge about it.
That is correct DroomieChikito!  Wink

If @theymos do what I recommended to him here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5179950.msg52306296#msg52306296 and in PM than he never again would need to even think about that something bad happens to the server(s) of BitcoinTalk. In the current state BitcoinTalk is vulnerable. If he does what I recommended it will mitigate all types of attacks once and forever.
I'm sorry, but what exactly is the issue with the session ID? It proves nothing.

I can add any "session id" i want (you can replace PHPSESSID with anything at all.. it doesn't matter..) .. -> http://archive.is/ljBAZ
Code:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?ogfidfsighdsfkjgdsfklhdsfkljhsdfkljghdfkljsg=youraas1&action=profile;u=3

This topic will loose it relevance immediately: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309785.msg3326091#msg3326091 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309785.msg3326091#msg3326091) meaning that no more bounty. Some regarding the forum and email can be still ongoing but he would need to rewrite the entire post.
That would be weird considering the topic has been relevant from the moment it was created.

You have a lot of talk, but no proof of anything thus far. If there really is a vulnerability to be exploited, why would the bounty page lose relevance? If anything it's the opposite; you'll stand to make a nice amount of money.. ?

I just realized i'm just feeding the troll. Fuck me.

Nah. It just simply means that whoever was trying to login on your account (using your LBC username) stopped doing so. It has nothing to do with LBC or their password DB..

You do understand the version of SMF the forum is running on is heavily modified right?

Also, if there's an actual exploit you can make use of; why not exploit it? - If it's actually useable, you can make a lot of money.

See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309785.0

Otherwise it might be best to just shut up.

I would appreciate few words instead of just quoting the posts. It seems you are trying to say that I did not read the answers and left a generic response. Is that it, what you meant?

And you point?
I was responding to Quickseller not the OP.
I would appreciate few words instead of just quoting the posts. It seems you are trying to say that I did not read the answers and left a generic response. Is that it, what you meant?

You speculated that OP (almightyruler) is reusing login credentials, when he wrote two posts above yours that he uses a unique email address and a unique password on every site.

And it's a moot point anyway with how LBC allows logins via usernames which are public, and this is why OP is seeing failed logins from strangers trying to access his account.

 Kiss
Sorry if it looked a bit bitchy. I didn't really feel like writing a one-liner pointing that out. Perhaps you were just stating your point... I guess that was what you were doing.

Anyway... as malevolent stated, quickseller's point doesn't really make much sense either considering you can try to login on anyone's LBC account using just their username. (Although it would be applicable for pretty much any other site but LBC, i agree.)

391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: [URGENT] Need help cancelling a transaction from a hacker [0.03 BTC bounty] on: August 29, 2019, 03:42:56 PM
I never know there's a chance of cancelling a transaction which is already sent on the blockchain and I go through this thread but still don't understand how the process was done since OP don't explain in length and ETFbitcoin message too tech for me to understand very well.
He sent another transaction which spent the same funds, but to a different adress with much, much higher fees.
So the miners added his transaction instead of the other one, due to the bigger monetary reward it would get them.

The transaction was never ‘canceled’ it was simply overridden by another one because the “first” transaction wasn’t confirmed yet.

If it was already confirmed (a miner has already mined a block including his transaction), it wouldn’t have been possible to do what he did. (Unless someone does a much more sophisticated attack, which usually isn’t worth it or even possible in the first place.)

392  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Error message on bitcoin core on: August 29, 2019, 01:36:58 PM
That's quite normal. nothing to worry about.

This warning is currently benign and has been fixed for Bitcoin Core 0.18. You see it because miners are using the block version number for a mining optimization called ASICBOOST. However soft forks in the past have used the version number for readiness signalling. Bitcoin Core is seeing version numbers it is not expecting (due to ASICBOOST) and thus triggering the warning.


I don't see a 18.0 win86 version so i think you might be stuck with this warning. (or you need to build v18.0 yourself, but i'm not sure if that's possible either.)

                                    what you think can bitcoin need an Index
 As we know that there are many threads on bitcointalk.org related to Index and i think everyone here know about index what is your thinking can bitcoin need Index ?
Index as in? Price index?

Most if not all sites take a weighed average from both Bitstamp + Coinbase + Kraken, so, in a way, the bitcoin price is pretty indexed to prevent price manipulation.
If that's what you're talking about, considering it's pretty hard to grasp what you're referring to.


394  Other / Meta / Re: Why are newbies allowed to post in the Lending boards? on: August 29, 2019, 10:09:57 AM
Lending in general on this forum is just a weird phenomenon to me.

I see all these members asking for a loan with ETH collateral, or some other altcoin - i mean why not sell those if you really need bitcoin/money? Doesn't make sense to me.

People who aren't borrowing money based on their reputation seem to do so only to increase their reputation, (by opening an overcollateralized loan with someone from DT1), simple trust farming. (I do suspect that some non-collateral loans are also taken out for that purpose.)

The whole section is a mess. I've yet to see a newbie take out a collateralized loan with my own eyes.
395  Other / Meta / Re: Add real-time Bitcoin price in the forum. on: August 29, 2019, 09:58:08 AM
I think this has already been discussed and the consensus was that it would be unnecessary (?)

If you really want this i'm pretty sure you can inject it into your webpage with JS and a simple script pretty easily.



As per Tryninja:
theymos (or some famous members) already said somewhere that this would make the forum have the "too much price dependent" vision.

1 BTC = 1 BTC. And that's what matters.

I'm not sure what his source for this is, couldn't find it.
396  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Chainalysis research reveals: only a small percentage of mixed coins are illegal on: August 29, 2019, 09:07:17 AM
About the likes of Coinbase not accepting coins from gambling sites, What could be the reason for this kind of restriction?
I have always sent crypto from gambling websites to the likes of Binance, Kucoin etc but I haven't met any challenges so far, so i guess most gambling chaps do the same too.
I'v read that it was because the gambling sites were actually illegal in most jurisdictions (the US etcetera), due to them not having any licenses whatsoever.

This was some time ago though, so i'm not sure this is actually still the case for most sites. (I imagine Nitrogensports and those kinds of sites have a license by now.)

It was also in their prohibited business list? https://bitedge.com/blog/coinbase-restricts-users-for-gambling-transactions/ (Doesn't look like that's the case anymore though)

I think this the OP likely had an account with the same email address on another bitcoin exchange or service that has its database hacked/leaked. I think someone is trying permutations of the OP's hacked password on another site.
It's very possible. Most of the times internet users use same login credentials to different sites and it results hacking. You can not just trust all the sites that they are storing encrypted password and the admins are honest.

I usually use very unique passwords for every single sites.

I think this the OP likely had an account with the same email address on another bitcoin exchange or service that has its database hacked/leaked. I think someone is trying permutations of the OP's hacked password on another site.

The OP should make sure his password is entirely unique, and not a permutation of his password elsewhere.

I use unique passwords and unique email addresses for each different site.

If it wasn't for LBC allowing login via username (which shows publicly on the feedback page), my account wouldn't be probed at all.

399  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How to make website like Shapeshift i have lots of coins? on: August 28, 2019, 05:02:40 PM
Honestly, you really shouldn't waste your time on OP's question, take a look at his trust score.
I really doubt that he actually has any money to spend on this, I mean he came to this forum immediately asking for a 0.01 BTC loan & promoting ponzi schemes.
Not to mention that anyone who thinks storing or letting interact "a lot of money/coins" on a nulled exchange script is totally ridiculous and extremely stupid.

Can someone refers me maybe there is like nulled script or something etc? maybe this is wrong section, but if someone can guide me let me know.
Most if not all exchange script that are sold are already garbage, but no, you only want nulled scripts... 101 on how to lose all your funds...

I've bought some P2P exchange scripts in the past but they're heavily outdated. (they were already when i bought them.), and the code in general wasn't really useable.
( https://exchangesoftware.info/item/1-bitexchanger ) You can buy it just to see how certain things are implemented, but i wouldn't run any site with this script for a multitude of reasons. (Actually, i wouldn't buy it either.)

Really, you should make your own from scratch in most case, which can be very pricey if you want it done right. you'll either need to give someone a good equity share or probably over five figures for such a project.

On another hand, for established scripts you can use website codecanyon which is under the ownership of envato marketplace. There are really a lot of good scripts, including coin exchanges, the scripts similar of shapeshift, for example see this one: https://codecanyon.net/item/crypto-exchange-fast-trading/23369105
I don't believe that that's good practice. The person selling that script has 20 sales, and never updated his script. (Despite envato stating that the quality is checked and that it has future updates.)

If you actually were to run a successful website on that script, the person who created it really has a lot of incentive to push a malicious update. I really doubt envato checks every line of code before they let a publisher update.
