3961  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A rooted phone for a crypto user safe ? on: August 28, 2022, 08:24:51 PM
I lost my phone days ago and now I got a used phone, the problem is this phone is rooted, I hope this doesn't carry any danger to crypto related security? Either wallets or stuff? I am careful not to import my recovery seed on the phone first, not before having a answer, I've also reformatted the phone through recovery mode but root is still present. Any Danger?.
What phone model are you using?
I would not used rooted phones for anything serious, but maybe you could install something like Divest OS or Lineage OS if you want more privacy with less bloatware.
Best thing would be to use any google pixel phone (even used) and you can easily install Graphene OS in no more than ten minutes, following simple instructions.
Than you should add good unique password and use only open source bitcoin wallets , but I would only do this for pocket money and small amount of coins.
More coins should be kept offline on cold storage of your choice.

I do not want to have both 2FA and my exchange accounts on the same device. Is there any 2FA app that is recommended that I can use on Windows?
KeePass would very good option like PowerGlove said, and you can use it as best password manager as well.
There is one application for wiNd0ws called WinAuth that is open source, it is not maintained anymore but it works just fine:
https://winauth.github.io/winauth/download.html

However, I would suggest switching to linux os (fedora or debian) for several reasons, and they have different applications like OTPClient, Authenticator, etc.
It's even better to use different device only for 2FA, this can be your old smartphone with Aegis app installed.

Mislio sam da sam zalutao u neku temu o kladionicama  Cheesy a kad smo kod toga, vidim na indexu da reklamiraju neki Favbet i daju 150% bonusa na depozit u kriptovalutama?
Trofo znaš nešto o toj stranici, vlasnicima, itd, ti si mislim najaktivniji od svih u Gambling boardu, a ovaj Favbet ima posvuda poslovnice.

pa zašto se barem 50 ili 100 najzaslužnijih ne bi nagradilo za njihov veliki doprinos sadašnjoj reputaciji i kvaliteti ovog foruma, makar i sa nekim simboličnim iznosom?
Ti bi neki novi Bitcointalk komunizam i socijalizam? Drug theymos će izabrati najbolje od najboljih...
Zna se kako to završava, mallo mi je  glupo i idiotski da theymos to radi, a to se nikada neće ni dogoditi, osim možda u tvojim snovima  Cheesy

Ljudi se mogu na sve naučiti, nije forum mobile friendly a ja ga upet jako puno koristim na mobitelu. Priznajem da je malo teže, pogotovo za ozbiljnije postove ili multi quote ali da se. Meni to ne smeta budući da je ovo ipak platforma na kojoj je pisao i sam satoshi kao i hrpa drugih legendi iz kripto industije a za razliku od twittera i ostalih social media, njihove postove je i dalje vrlo lako naći i čitati.
Možda bi se mogao napraviti bitcointalk frontend samo za mobitele, ali treba vremena, održavanje, i nije sve to besplatno.
3965  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Krux DIY Hardware Wallet on: August 27, 2022, 08:44:19 PM
This week I finally had free time and I finally managed to flash one of my M5StickV device that was collecting dust, and I installed Krux firmware.
Whole procedure is very simple and it takes only few minutes to complete after downloading latest firmware 22.08.1 from Krux github page.
Nice thing is that you can do this easily on most operating systems like Linux, Mac and wiNd0ws, following instructions from Getting Started page:
https://selfcustody.github.io/krux/getting-started/



Turning on device for the first time shows you menu screen, so you can than Load Mnemonic or create new one using D6 (standard six-sided die) or D20 dices (20-sided die).
Loading Mnemonic can be done via QR codes (easiest option), or importing Text, Numbers and Bips using BIP-39 standard.
Note that importing seed words manually is time consuming, so I suggest generating seed words offline in any method you like and importing it with QR code.
Ian Coleman's BIP-39 Tool is able to generate mnemonic with QR code you can import to Krux, but you need to select 12 or 24 words.
After this you can Add Passphrase if you want, and choose between Single-key and multisig.



Device has miniature battery so it can work without any cable connection, it has camera with light, but there is no way to see how much battery is charged and I don't like that.
It's easy to open device with unscrewing two screws and you can see everything inside, replace battery, camera or any other part.
Navigation is not that great and it's done with two plastic buttons on both sides of device with main confirmation button that is on front side below screen.
To put things into perspective I have to say that device dimensions are very small: 48*24*22mm.

I will test how everything works, pair it with different wallets and post updates in future.

Feel free to ask us any questions you might have.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
I see you are not using cloudflare, so what protection you have against ddos attacks?
And what is maximum amount of Bitcoins people can mix on your website, or to rephrase it more correctly, how big is your Bitcoin fund?

Yes sure you're right it's a big claim, but we think currently the most centralized mixing services are scams, have too high fees or do not work reliably.
One mixing service I know is very reliable, constantly under attack and they don't charge any fees except accepting voluntary donations.
Very hard to beat that.

In 2017 we started our first mixing service on the Ethereum blockchain but we recently took it down because of the recent events in relation to tornado cash. Our bitcoin mixer was linked there as well and I can send you more information about that in a private message. We don't want to announce the exact name on here publicly because of legal reasons.
That would be like I open a beef stake shop, selling premium cuts in 2022, but few years before I was selling donuts in 2017 with different brand name.
I can't say that I am selling stake since 2017 or I would mislead customers, and it's even worse if I tell them some vague story of my first business.

I created something, what do you think?
Nice work as usual TryNinja, this is exactly what I was looking for years!
Now my 50 BTC question, how complicated would be to import this to BPIP extension?
I am not counting potential bribe we could pay to suchmoon for updating extension again  Cheesy

PS
One thing I would like to see is option to backup and import all notes.
3968  Other / Meta / Re: Additional security measures to keep account secure on: August 27, 2022, 03:37:32 PM
There should be option for high rank members to activate email verification. From time to time, when the member logs in using the username and password, it should send an code to the email to be entered on bitcointalk for login. While login, there should be option to trust the device for some days so that it does not affect user experience.
I don't want to use something like this connected with any email, especially if it's going to be mandatory.
Unless you are running your own server with email, there is always a chance that email could be unavailable temporary or permanently, they could be flagged as spam, or they could be shut down.
Only option for securing accounts I would cosnuder using is 2FA or fido hardware keys.
3969  Other / Off-topic / Re: LastPass - Notice of Recent Security Incident on: August 27, 2022, 03:29:33 PM
That depends. What you just described is not as secure as it would be if you started with KeePass from scratch without using passwords that originate from other software. If LastPass stores passwords or vault information on a centralized server somewhere (encrypted or unencrypted), exporting and importing that data elsewhere would be like exporting your seed from a hot wallet and importing it into a cold wallet and considering it to be cold storage from now on. It isn't.
You can't simply stop using all those passwords at once because you will lose access to all your accounts.
That is why I said to import them all, and you can later change them one by one, if you think something is compromised with lastpass.
Data should be encrypted and not exposed but I would follow what happens next with lastpass case.

KeePassXC and KeePassDX aren't the only fork/modification of Keepass though. Keepass website also mention several fork at https://keepass.info/download.html.
Yeah sure, you can use any keepass fork you want, but it's best to pick something that is updated on regular basis.
Important thing that forks should be compatible with each other with file formats.

Ovo je očito dobitna kombinacija za prevarante, a zapravo ne vidim baš logiku da netko tko već ima više od 80 godina i milijun kuna na računu,
ulaže toliki novac u neke riskantne projekte umjesto da uzme taj novac i još malo uživa u životu.
Vidiš da mu nisu uzeli sve odjednom već su ga tri godine od 2019 do 2022 polako muzli i onda se lako skupi veći novac.
Ne znam kako pronalaze sve te ljude, možda imaju neke oglase, ali telegram, whatsapp i viber su idealni za ove prevarante.

3972  Other / Off-topic / Re: LastPass - Notice of Recent Security Incident on: August 26, 2022, 07:24:40 PM
Honestly, I have been thinking about alternatives to LastPass for some time. KeePass is a logical choice, but the only thing that's holding me back so far is the fact that I want to use LastPass on multiple platforms. I still have to explore reliable options to do this with a KeePass password manager.
KeePassXC for all desktop OS (LIN,MAC,win), KeePassDX for AndroidOS, there are extensions for Firefox and Chrome browsers, and you just need to remember (and backup) one master password.
KeePass allows importing of CSV files import (export it from LastPass); than you can keep KeePass database locally on all your devices, use your own server for hosting, or  some cloud for that (less secure).
Simple, secure and easy to use.

For all other open source alternatives you can check here:
https://alternativeto.net/software/lastpass/?license=opensource

I think that is why I do not use a password manager. I keep my password in the safest place on earth(My mind). Though I do use an external device to keep my password safe in case I forget them which usually does not happens.
If your mind is your safest place than you are just a time ticking bomb waiting to explode, and it's impossible to remember hundreds of passwords, but maybe you are using one more revolutionary (bad) thing - one password for all websites  Tongue

Try it out and let me know what you think!
Website looks great, it can be very useful, and I like dark&light theme switch, but I suggest adding some simple tutorial for newbies, how to use it correctly with explanation for terms like satoshi and other.
Maybe adding short info when you hover over words, or add glossary with explanation.
3974  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Exchange's payment methods on: August 26, 2022, 03:27:05 PM
I've always wondered why a lot of exchanges don't support certain payment methods. To mention a few: Transferwise, Skrill, Revolut, PayPal, Neteller, Paysafecard etc
I am not sure for other payment providers you mentioned, but I know that you can demand chargeback in PayPal and that could create lot of complications and potential scams for exchanges.
Even Bisq exchange don't support PayPal and Venmo because of chargeback risks, but it could also be related with availability, transaction fees, and other issues.

This method uses standards adopted by modern Bitcoin NFT projects and is the result of thinking about how best to do it pretty hard. If you have any questions not covered by the answers here, please feel free to ask!
Can this NFT's be traded and how exactly?
And can I create NFT only for my own account or I can create them for any account I want, let's say satoshi, theymos, Hal Finney or anyone else?
Someone could probably create multiple NFT of their account with changed avatar, Rank, text, etc.
3976  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Preev is down, Im happy to announce the official launch of Pnnv.com on: August 26, 2022, 02:30:52 PM
Looks like the HTTPS redirection already implemented. Anyway, i just tried it a bit and found out it fiat amount could be really detailed when you choose certain fiat (such as INR, LKR and RUB). You might want to perform rounding or limit number precision.
This happened to me when I was using default USD or EUR currencies after selecting both exchanges Bitstamp and Binance, so rounding should be fixed in this case also.
Dark mode looks cool, and I would update old logo from PREEV to PNNV, it doesn't have to be anything special or fancy.
3977  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Samsung Investing on Crypto (Bitcoin) in South Korea on: August 26, 2022, 02:21:43 PM
Some of Samsung models have built-in blockchain wallet in their smartphones, so they probably have plans to connect that to their new centralized exchange.
They already have secure element chip inside devices that can act similar like hardware wallet, but it's closed source so we don't know anything about bugs in their system.
It would be much better if Samsung supported Bitcoin, but I have a feeling they are going to create their own Samsung token soon and use it in this exchange.  Tongue

This morning, I received a notification to my email address about a security incident involving the LastPass password manager. Here is the notice in full
Compromised developer is the problem, but nothing was breached allegedly... sorry but I don't trust them Cheesy
Switch from LastPass to KeePass and you wont' receive any email ever, but you will be only responsible person if you lose your backup and login details.
KeePass is open source and it's available on all operating systems and for AndroidOS (keepassDX), they even accept Bitcoin and other crypto donations.
3979  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Buying a Hardware Wallet in US on: August 25, 2022, 05:57:49 PM
If buying in a store is not mandatory, and you're in the US, I'd probably order a Foundation Passport.
Maybe you forgot that Passport wallet can only be pre-ordered and exact date of delivery remains unknown, so I don't think this is good option for him at the moment.
btw did you finally received your long awaited Passport batch2 device?

Or, and I am just putting it out there you can have a trusted member buy one and ship it to you.
Oh boy, easy solution, and nobody was thinking about this before you  Cheesy
However, I would suggest to be aware of scammers and use some escrow for making transactions.
I am sure there are several members from US that would help if they are located in same city as OP.
3980  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: [Megathread] Bitcoin Layer 1 Privacy - concepts, ideas, research, discussion on: August 25, 2022, 05:49:58 PM
At least for Edward Snowden, it could be because he involved on Zcash creation. And when it happened, Monero still at rough start.
Yeah, I believe he was one of the six people, with pseudonym John Dobbertin, that participated in zcash ''trusted setup'' ceremony.
He said nobody paid him to be a part of this ceremony, but they did pay other people to participate.... all this is a shitshow because they had to make one more ceremony two years later to upgrade, and they will probably have more ''upgrades'' in future Cheesy
Now even if zcash is to become without this trusted setup they will always have this suspicious shady history and it's never going to be widely accepted.
Bitcoin on the other hand never did such shenanigans, so privacy changes would be easier for people to accept.
