Is it compatible with modern android apks? You could try with a new version of electrum of bitcoin wallet by Andrea's schildbach.

If you need compatible copies I can find some on an old phone (4.0.1) electrum still ran on it fine with the latest update since I last used it (about a year ago).

It depends on the system and type of security.

Some are better for prioritising permenance, reliability or privacy individually... This probanly isn't a question we can answer without some sort of target or use case

$6k or $5k would be a reasonable estimate for me at this point (although more of a guess)...

We saw a correction last time and were very close to the halving now (currently 4 days away)... The traditional markets also saw a growth back to where they were at the start of 2020, I don't think we would fall too hard (have a rapid crash) until they do. A pleateuing crash remains on the cards though...

Have you got a transaction I'd or the number of inputs and outputs? Did you love the recommended fee to be within 25 blocks?

It's likely that the mempool is still bloated and you're paying high for high priority and to compete against others on the network. The slider appears automatically afaik and you can slide it to the left for within 25 blocks (6 hours) if you're not in a rush...

Yeah, it was also a really short bit, a 20 second minute filler seemed to be taken quite out of proportion by all the media...



Every other country was quite slow to react (South Korea seemed quite quick but still not entirely).

The UK and a lot of Europe already had stockpiles due to political tensions that could arise from brexit in the immediate term.... China should've implemented a lockdown sooner but as soon as other countries knew about the virus I think they shouldn't shut their borders to anything passengers and send an alert to their citizens in other countries to get in contact with an allied embassy there and their insurance provider...

If the US has some sort of redundancy pay (severence package is it called?) then this will compound the problem too and cause companies losing employees that have been there for years to see an inability to take on workers until they're back in profit unless they take out loans...

The debt bubble becomes a problem when the economy starts to grind to a hault and then something else will have to happen that we haven't seen yet (afaik). I think it's looking more and more likely that governments across the world will have to look into socialising large areas of the economy until they become profitible and can be sold (the banks were managed in a similar way but these SHOULD bounc eback better than the banks since the liability is spread quite a bit more it can't be put down to a banker and an insurance salesperson in some office somewhere and people have more confidence than 2006-2008 at the moment).

Coinb.in is mentioned by a lot of people here and is written in java script afaik: http://coinb.in/#about - so it would run on a php server and within php afaik.

It's compatible with calls from bitcoin core so you may need to edit it to work with external explorers.

I'd say that lower diagonal might need to be a bit lower and or shallower to properly follow the trend..

We have seen btc go back up to around 8900 and I imagine it'll probably break back towards the lower line of the descending channel, but we could breakout either way and if it follows traditional assets, they seem to have plateaued today.

I think the peak could be near either march or october personally (if there's a lot of excitement it'll be soon, if there isn't very much the bears can hold us back until march - when people think we're at the peak)...

If enough of retail get into this I could imagine 2 fairly sizeable crashes or (more likely) a delayed crash with a peak that starts to stabalise (depending on how many people try to move assets to crypto). I don't think we're currently looking very bright though in the short term so it might be interesting to watch (I imagine a fall in everything over the next few months isn't unlikely).

Estimates from the peak are anywhere around 60-300k also atm (that seems to be a range of the "reasonable" estimates if bitcoin does peak).

Do you know your seed words? Go to the installer and put in something like wallet_backup and say you already have a seed and put the words in as if you were initially setting up the wallet.

I haven't heard of those cards but I assume you know how to do it?

Yeah like loyce says, do it around 1 sat per byte (I do anyway) and shift everything to one utxo for when fees become high again...

If you can save something for someone else on fees then you may as well even if it doesn't look like much...

Yes, the idea with the lightning network originally was that there were essentially 2 layers of nodes... The first layer deals with how to find people and routing information and the second deals with participating in the network (sending and receiving nodes but not necessarily routing).

Since acinq at least used to have the longest running nodes and were the main developers I was trying to work out if there's a way to disable funds going through any main servers (even though we can probably trust the developers of the ln, no device is completely secure and if you want to be fairly anonymous)...

As bitcryptex says but you also need trezor Bridge installed (you said you have trezor firmware so I'm just making sure that includes the bridge)...

If you're wanting to spend from a specific address/addresses you can right click on the addresses tab and select "spend from". You could also use preview to check you're doing it all the way you wanted to (alternatively there's a way to add all inputs to that window and deselect the ones you don't want afaicr).

12 word mnemonics have 479001600 permutations (different orders if they're jumbled) which is at the sweetspot for what standard computers are able to handle (mid range cpus and no gpus - within a couple of seconds but btc recover requires io to check addresses or a wallet file and the obvious hashing operations).

There are then  620448401733239439360000 permutations in a 24 word seed which is probably almost impossible to crack if they're trying every permutation... You could try moving some in certain places to make the operation faster (I. E. switching neighbours or moving words in sets of 3 or 2 instead). I'm assuming seed cracking hardware matches password cracking ones of around 24GHz (8GPUs) - but we're talking millions of gpus to get through this in a reasonable time if my calculations are right.

If you've run a vanity address generator then there's an exit when a word is found so the time difference in solving some words will come from that and the complexity of the algorithm to produce the merkle route.

Electrum seeds were also different sizes in the past with a mean distribution around 12.. I've had 8-13 word seeds in the past from the standard install of the wallet.

There's the other question that you could be paying a higher fee to be deanonymised... One of the perks of the ln goes if everyone cna use a certain node to route through.

I know this was their plan and it takes a while for my phone to load all the routes even at the moment (to sync I mean) but is there a way to disable it if you wanted to be more anonymous?

19 times!

Did they confirm a txid with you on your withdrawal and did you check you gave them the right address (if its on a confirmation email).

You're probably looking at getting liquidated at a $4 difference so it's really not something bitcoin can offer.

Bitcoin isn't a traditional asset, it's a bit more volatile and less likely than some to go back up to a certain price within a certain about of time which is why an index of different bitcoin prices have to be used by futures exchanges... I doubt anyone could run a successful exchange based on the index or last price and allow for 500x leverage without you realistically speculating on about 8 different exchanges markets at once...

Yeah it's a classic tightening range, lower highs and higher lows... With bitcoin this looks to often break to the downside but there's a lot of space left in the graph and that pattern looks a bit different on different timings but I'll say the sentiment that caused the initial large spike may have left by now...

Although financial markets are also less stable now and there may be some still worries that US stocks have their trading closed (a decision probably more likely to occur on the weekend as prices fell Friday which I anticipate to recover on the main markets)..

Yes addresses are compatible with each other. As long as the blockchain input window accepts it (which it should by now) you're fine to send the funds to your address.

Do you know where the address came from? It might mean your computer has been hacked/compromised by a piece of malware if not.

If you have been hacked and it hasn't confirmed, you may be able to ask support if they can get an engineer to act quickly and double spend the funds back to you but they may be gone since there are a lot of other outputs for that transaction.
