I didn't realise just how bad it was... Shocked Shocked

I'd certainly have no problem with a newbie jail, although that wouldn't help prevent things like the issue we had yesterday with hacked/sold accounts suddenly waking up and shilling fake Electrum wallet updates in locked threads. Undecided

Not sure the idea of "Convince 3 sr+ members to let you out of jail => get out of jail" is a workable idea... lord knows there are gangs "hobbyist groups" of bounty spammers at work... it would be relatively trivial for them to work around this requirement.

Also, I agree that the shadowbanning concept is something that should possibly be explored...

That's called a "margin"... most "money changers" do it. It is how they make their profit. Granted, in this instance it seems a bit excessive.

Was the price not indicated when you created the transaction? or do they only notify the exchange rate when you funds have arrived? Huh

If they don't agree to a set rate when you try to initiate the transaction, then I'd avoid using a service like that... chances are they are going to sting you with a shitty rate.
4263  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: ELECTRUM ASKED TOO MUCH FEES. SROUSLY? on: May 14, 2019, 09:28:03 PM
Hello why the mining fee increased now to 0.0085 btc? is this real? http://prntscr.com/noiyzn
Goto the menu: "Tools -> Preferences -> Fees"

Check the "fee estimation" type... is it set to ETA? or Mempool?

You might also want to check the "edit fees manually" box:



That'll let you set the exact fee you want to pay... NOTE: doing this may mean your transaction gets "stuck" if you set it too low... the mempool is VERY full right now and fees are insanely high!
4264  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Missing Inputs ELECTRUM ERROR - on: May 14, 2019, 09:21:52 PM
i dont know where's that Local transaction came from then :v.
A local transaction is created if you create/sign a transaction and click the "SAVE" button, but you don't broadcast it... it sits in your wallet, but isn't broadcast to the network.



This local transaction will be spending existing inputs and creating new UTXOs, when you attempt to send a 2nd transaction, it'll be attempting to spend these new UTXOs that only exist on YOUR wallet... as the previous transaction has not been broadcast. Thus, the server will reject your transaction due to "missing inputs" as it can't find these UTXOs that you're trying to use.

Solutions:

1. Broadcast the local transaction to the network and then send new transaction.
or
2. Delete the local transaction and then send new transaction.

I'd recommend that you check if you actually want that "local" transaction to be broadcast or not. You can right click and select "details" and check the amount and output addresses etc. If you don't want that transaction, you can delete it, by right clicking it and selecting "remove"

Sounds like Bitcoin Core is simply trying to store the data on your SDCard instead of the external device. Most likely you just need to modify the bitcoin.conf and set the datadir to be the location on the external drive.

On Linux, the location of bitcon.conf is usually: $HOME/.bitcoin/

which will be something like: /home/YOURUSERNAME/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf

Just add the following to bitcoin.conf (it's a text file):
Code:
datadir=/path/to/your/bitcoin/data
4266  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transfer BTC ISSUE on: May 14, 2019, 08:56:17 PM
Given that the transaction has already confirmed, then either your "Finney wallet" is not synced correctly... or you've sent BTC to the wrong address.

Check the wallet to make sure that address (3EH1Tv7fk2sev18REStZCpikpMDr4xY3Lo) is actually the one you were meant to send to... and if it was, contact Finney support and ask them for assistance getting your wallet synced up correctly.

Downloading  the 0.18 version gives me a  complete installation not just the exe file.
Since you talk about .exe, I'm assuming you're on Windows... if you just wanted the executable and not the full install... you need to download the .zip, NOT the ".exe" (that's the full installer, that has "setup" in the file name)

So, from here: https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/
Click the "ZIP" link and download: https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.18.0/bitcoin-0.18.0-win64.zip

Don't forget to verify the signatures!

Yes I have seen people in fiverr offering all kind of shady services for bitcointalk from merit giving, post writing, improving your writing style and a lot of this shit for a really low amount of money.
Just... Wow.

I actually thought this was just hyperbole... and that you guys were joking. Then I typed "bitcointalk" into fiverr search... Shocked Shocked Shocked

ICO thread bumping, accounts for sale, merits for sale etc Undecided

I'm guessing one of the best decisions I ever made was to just "hide" the entire "Altcoins" subboard Tongue

4270  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: i lose my eth coins after update trezor wallet on: May 14, 2019, 03:02:44 AM
hey man

 my wallet is trezor one ,  i dont know exactly with T
as you said it also have problem with T after wiped ?
buy a new trezor wallet  recovery my seed is last way for me . but it seems not smooth
so can you offer me some advise buy one or T ?   thanks so much
Why do you need to buy a new hardware wallet? Huh

If you updated to the new firmware... and it "wiped" your device, you can simply restore it using your 24 word seed... and as advised earlier, do not use a passphrase if your "old" wallet did not have a passphrase.

Passphrases are not enabled by default on the Trezor, you have to go into the settings and explicitly switch them on. Only after changing this setting will it prompt you to enter a passphrase.

not set passphrase in 2018 years ,(i think it didnt  have this function in that time ),  but yesterday i already set the passphrase
If I understand correctly, your device is now prompting you to enter a passphrase because you set it yesterday... If that is the case, and you original wallet didn't use a passphrase, you can simply leave the passphrase box blank and click "Enter". It will show you the "non-passphrase" wallet generated from your 24 word seed.

See the note at the bottom... "leave the passphrase blank to access your default wallet":



You can then go into the settings and switch the passphrase off if you want... or just continue to click "Enter" with a blank passphrase... it is the same thing.

I'm actually a little surprised that all of the forums funds are held by a single entity. Not even really a "trust" thing... but more just common sense risk management.

Especially considering funds have already been lost because of a "single point of failure".
4273  Bitcoin / Electrum / [PSA] - There is NO 3.3.6 UPDATE! BEWARE PHISHING LINKS in locked threads! on: May 14, 2019, 01:05:11 AM
Be careful, a user is spamming a link to a supposed 3.3.6 update that actually redirects to fake elecFrum .org

DO NOT follow the links in any of his messages... it's possible the account has been hacked ("This user recently woke up from a long period of inactivity.")

As always... only ever download from electrum.org
4274  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: EXODUS scam or trusted wallet ? on: May 13, 2019, 10:42:57 PM
The two things that bother me the most about Exodus:

1. No support for custom fees. When the network gets busy this will bite hard.
2. You cannot backup and test the backup of the wallet, until you deposit funds!!?! It will not show you the 12 word seed mnemonic until you have committed funds. Undecided

Still folks seem to love it because #altCoins Roll Eyes
4275  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Full node on a Smartphone on: May 13, 2019, 10:38:37 PM
When you start running a pruned node, your node still has to verify each and every block, from the genesis.
As far as I know, this is incorrect.
They do not have the entire blockchain so they cannot verify from the Genesis block. A pruned node can only verify after a determined block, which is stored in the node.
So you have to trust that you received the transaction history from a "trusted user". And that that history is correct.
A full node just need to know that the Genesis block is correct. That's easy to check. But check the entire pruned blockchain is not.

Please correct me if I said something wrong.
You are incorrect. A pruned node doesn't just start syncing at the current block... a pruned node will still have to start at the genesis block and download and verify every block, just like a regular full node. So you don't have to trust anyone. The difference is that instead of storing all of those blocks, a pruned node discards older blocks, as newer blocks are received.

So, if you setup a new instance of bitcoind, set it to pruned mode and then start it up... it will still start at the genesis block (just like a "normal" full node) and then sync/verify all 575,916 blocks (as of writing this). However, it will only store as many as it can fit in the given "pruned" size (user specified)... so once the "storage" is full, as newer blocks arrive, older blocks are removed to make room.

4277  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Problem with send bitcoin via electrum server on: May 13, 2019, 10:06:22 PM
You need the 12 word seed mnemonic that was shown to you when you created the wallet on Windows. If you didn't write it down, use "Wallet -> Seed" menu item.

Then, if you are setting up the wallet on Linux using the commandline, you use the "restore" command line this:
Code:
electrum restore [THIS IS WHERE YOU NEED TO TYPE YOUR 12 WORD SEED MNEMONIC]

Otherwise, if you are using the GUI on Linux, then simply use "File -> New\Restore -> enter a wallet name -> Standard Wallet -> I already have a seed" and then type the 12 words in. It will recreate the same wallet as on Windows AND it will contain the private keys so you can use the "payto" command etc.

Wow... Altcoin values (against BTC) got totally smoked with this massive pump in BTC price.

Although interestingly... the actual USD value of some of the coins doesn't seem too bad... looking at XRP for instance... it was $0.2975c on Aug 13th 2018 and is now $0.3275c which is actually a 10% gain!!?! Cheesy Tongue
4280  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Recovery Non Spendable BTC on: May 13, 2019, 09:26:44 PM
Yes that is correct. The imported file had only 1 (one) key.
That could be problematic... if you only have one key, then you won't have any keys for change addresses Undecided


Quote
From the main address (starts with a 1) and under the History Tab in Electrum there are six imputs with green checkmarks in front of the date.
In Electrum... with the 6 transactions that you see with the green checkmarks... are the values shown in the "amount" column displayed in Red colour? Red = outgoing coins.

What is the balance shown in the bottom left corner?


Quote
When I click on one of these they reveal quite a lot of other information. Would the "change address be in there?
Yes, you should be able to see the "Outputs" box that will list all the outputs created by the transaction. If there is more than one address shown in "Outputs", then one of them will be the change address. Unfortunately, as I mentioned above, if you only have 1 key imported, then none of the "change" addresses (and their private keys) will be loaded into your wallet.

So you will not have access to any of the coins in any change addresses (if any) unless you can find the keys for those addresses.
