I'm thus far voting on the CoolWallet overall. "Case" looked good but then I read about them using multi-sig and keeping 2/3 keys in their FAQ. I personally don't want the ability for them to "recover" my wallet although I suppose it's better for the everyday consumer.

Quote
Case is extremely secure because it is built on top of a multi-signature, multi-factor architecture with no single point of failure. Your bitcoin wallet has three keys and two of them are needed to complete a transaction. One key is embedded on the device so it is secured by the possession factor. No one can gain access to this key without having possession of the device. However, this key isn’t enough to complete a transaction. A second key is stored on our servers and transactions are only signed by the server key if the fingerprint scan is a match so this key is secured by a biometric factor. That means even if your device is lost or our servers are compromised, your bitcoins are safe. A third key sits in an offline vault and is only used if you ever lose your Case to help your recover your bitcoins.

So, if Case goes tits up? You're shit out of luck?

I'm in UK. I've also just won an SP10 on ebay. Might postpone the SP20 for a week or so while I get it installed.

How much did you bid for the sp10? Because I have one for sale in Canada.

I wouldn't buy a trezor with locked firmware.

Luckily you don't have to.

Slush has been and will be the only pool I mine. Lucky today though I got a slice of all 5 blocks but only small as I was running two S3's. Just wish I could afford to run the rest of my miners.

Guess it just depends how much bitcoin you want to buy from the electric company.

Takes a while to figure it out doesn't it? You are no longer newbies, I dub thee fairly clued in.

Thank you for staying open source. I still have high confidence in you and your company's integrity.  Had been a miner in your pool for a long time and bought 3 Trezors not long ago. 

Same as my story.

With my power, I'm not getting a payout every day. The last time I mined here, we found a 2 blocks in 24hrs, I got .006.

I set my threshold to payout once or twice per month, seems fine here.

How much power do you have? With my current config(hash, kw price, price of btc etc), the month of november/december were brilliant. Each day, got around .02 - .03 which was enough to offset the power cost. In one month I made around .5 - .6btc. This month alone, for the time I mined, I made less than .1. Just not worth it for me. Much more worth while to rent power with my btc and throw it around random pools.

If you're converting to cash on a daily basis to pay bills, I suppose this might be a good method. I prefer larger payouts  so I can spend them without fees.

This clone wars movie was short lived. I was hoping for a few more days of drama.

would satoshilabs be willing to sell me a First Edition metal Trezor for 1.0 BTC ?

try at least tree fiddy

wait a week
52  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [ESHOP launched] Trezor: Bitcoin hardware wallet on: January 29, 2015, 12:53:49 AM
why do you think they are switching away from the current backend...

Slush is one of the founders of Satoshi Labs, so I think he would know what they're working on...

would satoshilabs be willing to sell me a first edition metal Trezor for 1.0 BTC ?

They've stated repeatedly that they have no plans of ever offering the metal Trezors again.

I know that but they have extras to give out when they fail which is mostly never, so I assume they have plenty left and I made an offer.

aaaaaaand it's gone!


I feel for the folks who bought GH/s off of them, or preordered the latest Cointerra 16 nm vapourware. Their situation is indeed unfortunate, but on a lighter note, my Terraminer 2.0 TH/s @ 1300 watts machine is still happily hashing away at 1.6 TH/s @ 2400 watts.

Nah this coin isn't worth MORE than bitcoin, but its MUCH easier to mine and not hard to flip to BTC.

I'm starting to think Slush may need to incorporate a double pay method on his pool. DGM + PPS, current + PPS. It might just help to maintain hashing power and confidence on those slower days. I had two of my miners on all day today, and got a little lucky, so I switched on my third miner. 9 hrs and nothing. Negated the previous blocks. Now all 3 are off, the pool will probably crack a block.

I'm starting to invest my btc in mining contracts online. Seems to do well. I'm also dumping a quarter of my weekly pay into BTC conversions and a new miner.

Wtf is BTC conversions?

It's a bit confusing for the user, isn't it. I'd also be interested in why this is the case for me and not for dnaleor.

Yes, we realised that various QR code generators produce different results (even for the same settings). Actually I have not found 2 implementations that DO produce same results. It's a mess and we'll look into that later, but it's low priority at the moment.

That said I really doubt that codes for dnaleor do match.



checked again.
Indeed, different QR-code, but decoded as same address. Odd Smiley

Is this different look of the qr that big of a deal? I thought they only need around 30 percent of it to be readable.

Unless you have big power, any of those chinese pools are going to pay very poorly. I switched my miners back on today, and lucky I got in on 3 blocks found today after a slow painful week.

I've been mining another currency at the moment which when converted to BTC pays better than mining any of those junk chinese pools.

If you support those chinese pools(f2pool, ghash, btc china etc) you're part of the problem btc is facing. Get out of there.

What other currency are you mining?

I would guess he/she is mining any new pump and dump coin that pays more bitcoin than just mining straight bitcoin. Example would be Paycoin which netted 10 times normal bitcoin payout for the week or two it lasted.

I set up my ledger wallet, took not long, the longest part was writing down the 24 word recovery phrase. it works great. I have the deposit address saved on my multibit hot wallet, I can send money striaght to my ledger without even plugging in! I like this wallet!

After 2 years on this forum, I hope you are aware that you can send funds to any address without the corresponding wallet being "plugged in".

Yes, your miners must have disconnected from the internet if they did not power off.
