I've found here an explanation.
From my understanding P2PK does not translate clearly to an address so we could say it's that the one who has received the funds.

I still have the card, but don't use it much. Although it seems to behave much better than Binance card, the later one is much cheaper to use (although one may want to wait for higher price to sell Bitcoin).
And yes, those WXT rewards are simply useless.
Still, unless the card didn't expire, I don't see any good reason to throw it away, not yet, as long as there's no monthly fee.

The Bitcoin Core updates are also announced in the news area on (more or less) the top of the forum pages. You can always find there the latest version.
So all those interested indeed, cannot miss it.

I don't trust it.
The Ebay page, in some place it tells it's a Scrypt miner (meaning LTC, DOGE, ..), in other place it tells Ethash.
I don't know if the seller has no idea what's he's doing or it's plain scam, however, I'd be wary.

However, all this is altcoin mining related, so you better ask about it in altcoin mining area.

VirtualBox-like solutions are considered not safe enough for cold storage, since malware on the underlying OS can record every move.
But if you're knowledgeable enough for VBox, you can easily use an USB stick with Live Linux as cold storage, as long as you always remember to unplug your network cable before booting from the stick. Even more, Tails OS provides a pretty good solution for this.

Well said. The thing is that European politicians made it even worse by not thinking it through with their (well intended, awfully implemented) green deal.
Now it depends on how the things go. The "gas for Rubles" was a bad move from Russia and the continuation with closing the pipe for certain countries is even worse for them.

Yes, Europe will suffer for some years (which will, interestingly, helps USA, which is exactly Russia's nightmare), but it will force them/us allow actual competition between the various possible suppliers, no longer favoring Russia. This will make, on long term, Europe stronger, USA richer and Russia poorer.
This, together with the full display of what's behind the image of the "great" Russian army, might cause long term troubles for Russia (and Japan is already hinting that, almost trying to force WW3).

Sorry, but no, I won't watch that interview.
The more the people watching such videos, the more the chance more such videos will be made, helping the troll get more attention/popularity.
(Also I expect my brain hurt from those lies )

Actually it's not so much unexpected for governments actually mine Bitcoin, just I expected this happen much later, when they have exposure (reserves) in bitcoin.
While I agree it's not a great news on long term, it's still a very small move, which, for now, can increase the trust of average Joe in Bitcoin (which, as already happened, can be seen as good). I would be more scared if they (also) start using their own mining pools where they can filter out unwanted transactions.

So, yeah, I have mixed feelings. I think that it's, unfortunately, quite a normal move, after all.

You must be kidding...
Investing into mining devices is much riskier (on "mining gest unprofitable" path) and the businesses I am talking about probably have at least hundreds of them. More ASICs = bigger hash rate = less profitable mining.
On the other hand, if they invest into their green energy facilities they:
* will produce their own energy and mining is never unprofitable on free energy (of course, after ROI)
* if mining is no longer profitable they can sell electricity, or sell the electricity production facilities, or even sell the land and the panels
Investing into their own energy can easily be a better step and with more forward thinking than buying more ASICs.

I am not that sure it's not possible, I've founds this tutorial on how to do it:
https://bitcoinelectrum.com/creating-a-watch-only-version-of-your-2fa-wallet/

However, if this doesn't work or it's too difficult, and if OP wants to drop the "also to be able to get new address" functionality, he can always make a watch only wallet based on the one address he knows (or a list of addresses).


Edit: I see OP has standard wallet, then getting the master public key is easy. The rest of the answer still stands.

First of all, it's an interesting way to promote your website!  I genuinely like it. (I guess that this change in your site may have been the reason for being down when I've checked it earlier today).

Now, about the rules.. I am not sure I've understood: will you basically pay about 5 x [number-of-listed-coins] dollars (total), or will you pay only the predictions that will come true?
I'm asking because the not-very-clear rule may make people spam your website ("you can make unlimited predictions" is kinda contradicting the "don't spam" rule).

If it has the hologram intact it may be more valuable as it is and you may get more money on the "entire package" than just cashing in the coins coming from the private key (plus the fork coins).
Of course, it will be a bit more hassle to get it sold/sent properly.

I would start with asking for help/info in the Collectibles area.

Sorry, I was away with (very) limited internet.
Imho the two search boxes can easily be seen as a mistake, no matter what's the intended logic. So imho it's better to remove. But it would be even better to ask for more opinions.

I wanted to take a look again now, but no luck: Cloudflare said that the website has error.

Although I do look for transactions and history now and then, I usually^* have txindex=1 in Bitcoin Core and I look at a block explorer - BTC RPC Explorer (the only one I could make to work well on top of electrs), but all went well, with no surprises.


^* Unfortunately because of the rather small HDD I'm using, I go right now without txindex until I decide what to do next/go for bigger HDD.

I went for this, although indeed the question is rather unclear; also it must be mentioned that there are many "levels" of being a coder and many coders didn't touch the code of Bitcoin or don't even know in-depth how it's working.

But, on the other hand, it can prove (or not!) whether bitcoin attracts mostly IT-related people. Imho that assumption is no longer true, for at least 4 years now.

In my country, for example, regenerable electricity is considered unreliable (which is correct, since wind and sun don't work 24/7) and (unfortunately) their solution is to still cover the industrial need for electricity from reliable sources (coal, nuclear, maybe hydro). And the surplus is sold/get rid of.
That's the actual green energy: something many countries don't know what to do with. Still they blame bitcoin mining for not being green. Isn't that hypocrisy?


Of course, I'm advocating this for some time already: large scale miners should build their own (green) energy production facilities. This will ensure they can operate for very long, no matter how low the block reward will drop and would also shut off the political trolls.

No problem and sorry if I was a bit harsh, it did sound to me like you want to insist into wrong direction, especially after getting so many answers covering the topic.
At least I am kinda sure now that you've got the point.

It's the first actual-use review I see for Fulcrum, although I've searched for such posts ~6+ months ago.
Thank you for that!

The point is that's the only Electrum server that seems to have Windows binaries. Maybe Windows users will start looking into this one too.

Am asteptat in speranta ca cineva iti da vreo idee mai buna decat pot sa produc eu, dar se pare ca nu prea se avanta lumea.
Incepand cu faptul ca nu am firma si deci nu am experienta deloc in problema ta, niste idei/directii care, sper eu, te pot ajuta, ar fi:
* vazut/incercat cu banci din UE, poate in tari mai "cu apa calda" gasesti vreunii mai deschisi (capete mai putin patrate)
* vazut/incercat si cu IFN-uri de gen Revolut, cu mentiunea ca cel putin acum vreo 3 ani aveau niste sisteme automate idioate care blocau contul pentru te miri ce, iar deblocarea era extrem de greoaie; nu stiu daca mai e cazul, nu am mai citit.

I've explained it all, you chose to understand what you want.
The wallet helps you not make mistakes. The blockchain ensures you're not play smartass.
