Nice idea but far too much work for a temporary thing. There's no upside for wallet developers.

They can point to wallet signing and that'll be enough

Effort would be better spent getting everyone to agree on a SegWit message signature algorithm and then getting everyone to implement it system wide.
402  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments on: October 18, 2017, 10:22:06 PM
I need to update my client and have a look but from reading the release notes and other peoples reviews/comments on here it is unsurprising that it is work of the highest quality.

I have one question. I have tried to link my BTC address for the upcoming airdrop event in November but the bot keeps giving me an error. The BTC is in a new SEGWIT address (starting 3XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX...) and I don't think this is currently compatible.

Is there any intention to correct this and make this work in the future or will I have to move my BTC to an older legacy address? (I am relucant to pay the BTC transaction fee - extortionate given the amount of BTC I have - very little, but will do it if I have to)

Thanks in advance for your responses
Currently there is no standard for message signatures with SegWit addresses.  There was a proposal and trezor implemented it but then backed out the feature because the proposal did not become a standard.

So, this is not a ByteBall issue.  It is a SegWit issue.

Until a standard is defined and is implemented system wide you will need to move your BTC to a legacy address in order to be able to sign a message.

Finally, I see something from the sales sphere that proves to be useful! Where do I buy it, are there on Amazon?  Sad
Have you ever thought of just going to Amazon and searching for "Trezor".  Wouldn't that be even easier than coming here and asking someone else to do it for you?


Oh, I see, you are just spamming your paid spam signature.

I don' think I understand completely what you mean by bitcoin collider. Could you please explain it is simple laymen words?
My guess is you are new to forums, new to reading threads, new to computers and not technically savy.

The very first post in a thread is called the "original post" or OP for sort.  This is where you will find out what the thread is all about.  So, before you ask any questions in a thread you should read the OP, the first post in the thread.  Then if you do not understand what the thread is about it then, and only then, you post a very specific question that is not answered in the OP.  In order to get to the OP you click on the 1 below where it says "Pages:" to get to the first page.  Or you can click here:

If you want to get up to date you really need to use the bootstrap files.  I tried it without them, gave up after a few days, used the bootstrap files, got caught up eventually.

Hi guys,
Can I sign&verify btc transaction on trezor? i connected my trezor but i didn't find that option on btc wallet

Bitcoin Core has not established a protocol to sign from segwit addresses. The default wallet for trezor only uses segwit addresses. I believe that you should have the option to use the legacy wallet and be able to sign a message from there.

My literal reading of the question "Can I sign&verify btc transaction on trezor" is that he is asking if the Trezor signs transactions to which the answer it "that is the main purpose of the device, so yes"

Reading between the line perhaps, as you assumed, he is really asking "Can I sign&verify messages on trezor" to which the answer for legacy Bitcoin addresses is "of course - it has always been able to do this"

AND the answer for SegWit addresses is "Trezor is one of the few wallets that can and does offer a signature algorithm for SegWit addresses - full disclosure:  the SegWit signature algorithm implemented on the Trezor is not a standard yet."

Finally to answer his question "i connected my trezor but i didn't find that option on btc wallet" I would need to connect one of my Trezors and find it but I am currently at work so I will do that when I get home or, someone else can answer that part.

OK, so a Segwit address is what a Nano is? And I would need to put my BTC back on my computer to participate in the airdrop. That is a great shame, as I really dont want to do that (or incur the high fees moving it there and back just for some free currency.)

I guess GBYTE has lost a supporter with this move and I will be selling my GBYTE holdings (not that I personally will make one jot of difference to the project overall) but I think it's pretty shortsighted of the developer of this coin to not support this other form of BTC address in the links. I was advised to move my holdings to a Nano because it was safer...

Hi, I realise that the next distribution is not planned until November but I have recently moved my BTC to a Nano S and was looking to relink my ByteBall wallet to this new address.
When I chatted to the transition bot and told it my new address I got an error:

"Only P2PKH addresses are supported".

I am new to this, and am not technically gifted. I did a quick google search but didnt really understand what it all meant.
Can anyone explain what I need to do and if it is possible to still link my wallets to participate in the next airdrop.

Thanks again for your help.


You cannot use segwit addresses as at this time it is not possible to sign messages with segwit addresses. Legacy btc addresses only.

It is not the developer of Byteball. The new segwit btc addresses are not compatible with signing messages at this time. It has nothing to do with Byteball. It has to do with btc segwit protocol.

Oh, I see. My apologies for jumping to conclusions and thank you for your advice and putting me straight. Do you advise I move my funds then, or is this likely to be sorted out at some point soon?

tonych,

Please consider implementing the signature algorithm discussed here:

https://github.com/trezor/trezor-mcu/issues/169

and implemented on the Trezor wallet so that we can make a step forward on implementing a standard way to sign messages with SegWit addresses.

As far as I know this is the only implemented proposal so far.

1) Anyone who keeps their coins in a Trezor wallet would be able to sign messages with them for the ByteBall bot.

2) More SegWit compliant wallets can/will be asked to use/implement this algorithm

3) This will help in the adoption of this proposal as a standard.

There are already too many out there. What is going to make yours different from theirs? The entire process is a losing proposition as there is nothing that makes it more successful than just mining and there has yet to be enough power put to the system and that is still a waste as the same power applies to mining would produce the same pay out.
Tell the truth.  You bought your Hero account, right?

Is getting a money transmitters license in-congruent with the fact that what most sellers are doing is not actually illegal?
Yes because a license is defined as "permssion to do something which is technically illegal".
Like, for example, driving a car?  Operating a beauty salon?

What the heck are you talking about?

Yes, rights usurped into licensed privileges.


I get your meaning now:  in a perfect (or at least more ideal) world we would not need to get a license from the goobermint to do things like trade Bitcoins, drive a car, etc. etc.

Agreed.

Is there new airdrop ?
Read the first post on the first page of this thread.  If you are too lazy to do that then you do not deserve to participate in the airdrop.

i feel pros here wont teach us the basics of getting clam so as to force us to 3rd party IMO
and yeah how can i buy clam using mastercard
You know how I figured out how to get my clams?  I read the thread.  I know that is probably a new concept for you.  Try reading the first 10 pages and then maybe the the last 20 or so.  You will learn a lot.
yeah true but i meant for staking like how many clams and coin control how they function...my estimated time to stake keeps on fluctuating pisses me off
Not once in your post did you mention staking.  You mentioned "getting clam", you mention "3rd party" you mention "mastercard"

Your estimated time will fluctuate based on how many people are staking and how many coins are being staked.  This varies over time.  This really should not piss you off.  Again, I learned a lot about staking by reading the thread.  You can easily buy clams at the various exchanges (poloniex, bittrex, etc.)

Easy enough to run Google translate:

I want to wish you unquenchable enthusiasm and good luck.) I entered GBYTE at the wrong time, it's also pointless to go out. So it remains to wait for our common prosperity))

I just tried to open an account at BitcoinIRA.com and it did not go well.

Everything was going fine, I filled out all the paperwork, transferred my Roth IRA funds to BitcoinIRA and was waiting for the call from their trading partner, Genesis Trading, in order to by the Bitcoins for the IRA.

Instead I got a call from BitcoinIRA saying that Genesis Trading would not do the trade due to an article they found about me.

The article they found is this one:

https://coinjournal.net/burt-wagner-localbitcoins-case-shows-danger-of-overbearing-government/

It was explained to me that because they found this article they would not do the trade to purchase the Bitcoins.

I tried to explain to them that the charge was dismissed with prejudice to no avail.

So, my wife called the attorney at Genesis Trading.  The attorney at Genesis Trading told her that they have an internal policy of not doing any business with anyone who has ever done any trading at localbitcions.com!

So, just wanted to let you all know that if you have ever traded at localbitcoins you cannot get an IRA through BitcoinIRA.com

I am in the process of trying out some of their competitors.  I will update when I know more.

Would someone please write up a BIP for the SegWit signature algorithm implemented in Trezor and discussed here:

https://github.com/trezor/trezor-mcu/issues/169

So that we can kick start the process of having this become the industry standard algorithm for signatures based on SegWit addresses.

I am sorry but I do not have the time to write it up right now.

Thanks!
