The Trezor bridge is basically a driver that allows the Trezor to communicate with your browser.  Electrum also uses it to connect to the Trezor.

Here's some information about it: https://wiki.trezor.io/Trezor_Bridge
You can use this page to check your version and download the latest: https://wallet.trezor.io/#/bridge

Hey Devawnm367,
I'm sorry to hear about your troubles, and best wishes for your mother's health.

Have you tried the typical job-search sites?  You'll find plenty of work-from-home offers for sales, customer support, even teaching.  I'm sure there's other stuff too, but be careful of the offers that sound too good to be true.

Try Glassdoor, FlexJobs, Indeed, and Ziprecruiter.  Those are big ones, just search for "remote" or "work-from-home."

My replies are aggressive because i have to debunk the same accusation over and over again, but that doesn't seem to work since i keep receiving feedbacks like
"Don't send btc to this scammer" while the whole business model is based on us actually NOT receiving any funds.


1. Lender as service provider:

Lend us UP to 5BTC with 10% monthly payback + 5% monthly interest.
We can give API access + EMAIL +PASSWORD of the trading account managing the funds as collateral so you can always keep an eye on the funds.
This results in almost 30% risk free profit for the lender. 2 year of data shows the bot can easily handle the interest rate, please download and check for yourself.

Contradict yourself much?  Maybe I should ask if there was ever a time when you didn't contradict yourself...  You continue to lie, and the evidence is plastered across the forum.

And we all know why your replies are aggressive; it's because you have no intellect with which to argue rationally.  You claim to be this trading and programming guru, yet have demonstrated that you don't know shit about trading or programming.   You claim your auto-trading bot that you probably hijacked off of github is a quant, but that's just some buzz word you learned.  You wouldn't know a quant if it bit you in the ass.  And somehow you've convinced yourself in your pathetic fantasy world that you're roasting us, right?  

Well I've got news for you buddy, you're a cunt, not a quant, and you've been exposed.

I had an issue connecting to my ETH wallet a couple of days ago.  There is a Trezor Bridge upgrade that fixed my issue.  Not sure if that's the root of your connection problems. 
4149  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin’s race to outrun the quantum computer on: September 18, 2019, 05:56:58 PM
1. what happens to quantum-vulnerable outputs? like p2pk and spent addresses that still hold coins. the answer dictates whether lost coins are actually a donation to bitcoin holders as satoshi said. if we do nothing, then he was obviously wrong about that.

I'm afraid I don't have the answer and even if I did, someone else is likely to disagree with it.  Like pooya87 opined, that's likely to be a political melodrama for the ages.


2. the logistics of a fork. take lamport signatures for example. wouldn't it be optimal to do it years before it's a real concern = less people reusing keys as the threat approaches?

Would single use keys make unspent transactions any less vulnerable?  I'm not sure.  Unless all ASIC miners upgrade to quantum ASICs and vast amounts of storage become super cheap and fast, Lamport Signatures are way too cumbersome for the blockchain as we know it today.  But keep in mind that's almost 40 year-old tech.  Long cumbersome algos can be couple with compression/decompression to increase their practical applications.
4150  Economy / Lending / Re: For OfferAds.Com - Need 0.45 BTC Loan For 3 Months - 4% Interest Each Month on: September 18, 2019, 03:52:53 PM
Hello Guys

I need 0.45 BTC Against My Domain - OfferAds.Com

This is a Premium Commercial Domain. I am open to every due diligence to make it work.

My Offer is -

You loan me 0.45 BTC for 3 months

I pay you 4% interest each month.  (Can be paid monthly)
You keep my premium domain as collateral. Domain is right now in my Godaddy.com Account.

This is a potential domain for Ad Networks and affiliate networks. Also FB has a AD type called "Offer Ads".

To Complete this transaction, we can use any popular escrow service. This way both parties will be safe and happy.
Payable Escrow fees can be discussed once we finalize this transaction.

I want to sell this domain but there is not quick way for that.



1) Domains aren't valid collateral because 99.999999% are worthless.
2) Evaluations of domain values are pure fantasy.
3) You're requesting 50% more than the fantasy value of your domain.
4) You admitted you want to sell the domain, which means this is a tricky sale disguised as a loan.

This has to be the stupidest attempt at a scam I've seen in a long while, but it's been mildly entertaining.

4153  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Hardware wallets as a measure of mainstream adoption....? on: September 18, 2019, 12:23:32 AM
The news of this attack vector concerns me as well, as it should everyone.  The wallet does need to be physically accessible to the hacker, so in the event of a loss or theft of a hardware wallet one must look at a strong passphrase as a little time bought, not as a fail-safe.  However, if my Ledger were lost or stolen I would still feel the same way.

My comments above were really just a comparison of the KeepKey and the Trezor One, since both suffer from the same vulnerability.  And if I'm not mistaken, all open source wallets are open to this attack vector.  That's something to consider when shopping for a wallet as well.

I must admit I'm still a fan of the Trezor T, it's my go to wallet.  I did add a much stronger passphrase recently to buy myself some time if anything does happen to it.
4154  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 17, 2019, 08:47:19 PM
How long before Ibian's bank announces it's own "cryptocurrency"?



I was going through some of Hal Finney's posts recently, and was reminded of this:


Actually there is a very good reason for Bitcoin-backed banks to exist, issuing their own digital cash currency, redeemable for bitcoins. Bitcoin itself cannot scale to have every single financial transaction in the world be broadcast to everyone and included in the block chain. There needs to be a secondary level of payment systems which is lighter weight and more efficient. Likewise, the time needed for Bitcoin transactions to finalize will be impractical for medium to large value purchases.

Bitcoin backed banks will solve these problems. They can work like banks did before nationalization of currency. Different banks can have different policies, some more aggressive, some more conservative. Some would be fractional reserve while others may be 100% Bitcoin backed. Interest rates may vary. Cash from some banks may trade at a discount to that from others.

George Selgin has worked out the theory of competitive free banking in detail, and he argues that such a system would be stable, inflation resistant and self-regulating.

I believe this will be the ultimate fate of Bitcoin, to be the "high-powered money" that serves as a reserve currency for banks that issue their own digital cash. Most Bitcoin transactions will occur between banks, to settle net transfers. Bitcoin transactions by private individuals will be as rare as... well, as Bitcoin based purchases are today.

72 hours have already passed, I'm afraid that the waiting time for the session will pass and then I can not enter my session

ChipMixer has extended sessions for people in the past when issues arise.  Don't fret, they'll respond to your service ticket in time and will make things right.  They've always done so up until now, and I see no reason not to trust that they will continue to do so.
4156  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum help on: September 17, 2019, 06:31:15 PM
Where did you get the Electrum android app?  I haven't heard anything about a fake Electrum in google play store, but it's always best to initiate your download from the official Electrum site; electrum.org.  There have been plenty of malicious desktop versions making the rounds, so be very careful where you download.

I've never used bitonic.com, are you sure they are compatible with native segwit (bech32) addresses?  Many web-wallets and exchanges are not, so that may be your issue. 
4157  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin’s race to outrun the quantum computer on: September 17, 2019, 05:21:56 PM
Computing, security, encryption, and hacking has always been and will likely always be a cat and mouse game.  It's not like we all woke up one day and found all of our security that was based on SHA-1 encryption was hosed by every hacker on the planet, it was a gradual shift.  As computers get faster, encryption will need to become stronger, and it's the faster computers that will enable stronger encryption.

After reading these comments, and re-examining the post history of the banned user it's pretty clear that the account was a trolling sock-puppet.  It seems like whoever is behind it is already a member here, and know which buttons to push.  Even the name of the account is trolling, and I seriously doubt that the user is Nigerian or a farmer.
4159  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Hardware wallets as a measure of mainstream adoption....? on: September 17, 2019, 04:18:58 PM
As we have to trust Exchanges, maybe we can trust a well known company ? But I'm 100% with you when it comes to say : not your keys, not your coins !

I don't think that trusted companies like Trezor and Ledger would bother to do such a thing and earn a little on comission. Trezor introduced Trezor Buy which helps less experienced users to choose a good exchange to buy Bitcoin from. It's even easier to exchange coins thanks to the integration with major swap platforms.

Can someone know what's the cheapest hardware wallet (real one, not a cold storage one) on the market ? (My question is business oriented as I'm part of a hardware wallet startup).  Tongue

Ledger HW.1 is the cheapest one, but it's no longer supported. I have seen Ledger rep on Reddit giving a discount on Nano S for users who still haven't upgraded from the HW.1. In Europe, Archos Safe-t mini seems to be the cheapest hardware wallet with built-in screen. It's basically a Trezor One in a different chassis.

I think it might be a sale price, but the KeepKey is selling for $24.99 on Amazon right now, a dollar cheaper than the Ledger HW-1.  The Trezor One is $51, and the Ledger nano S is $59.  If I was in the market right now I'd buy a Trezor One, even though it's twice as pricey as the KeepKey I think it's the more secure and versatile choice.

It's getting easier to tell you apart, the avatar has force me into the habit of looking at the user name.  Some times I start reading your posts and have to do a double-take, lol.


I've added some more statistics on each of those 82 users, see Percentage of Merit received on old posts, deleted posts, and average per post.

Very well laid out, and I like the stats you included.  There are a lot of qualified individuals on that list.  DarkStar_ has some tough choices to make, that's for sure.
