Fixed the major spelling and grammar issues for those who were worried and brought it to our attention. Thank you for your concern.
Nice work.
Sorry I had to point that out in public, but I developed that habit after checking out and inspecting many suspicious websites, and many of them had spelling mistakes that was red alert or me.
I know you are not a scam, but you might want to check rest of the pages and fix other potential errors.  
It looks much more professional especially if English is your native language.

PS
I see you are not printing guns, but you obviously print bitcoin bombs and hand grenades  Cheesy


4422  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Wasabi blacklisting update - open letter / 24 questions discussion thread on: July 11, 2022, 02:03:59 PM
This just gave me the idea to make a website where you put in a transaction ID and it gives you a 'taint score' (just like those other blockchain analysis services), but this score is simply always 100%, with a nice green background and informative text saying 'This UTXO is wonderfully clean; it is yours if you have the private key to spend it and you can send it anywhere you like.'..
This is actually not a bad idea, but keep in mind that some psycho or regulators could sue or shut down your website you for not providing exact information like it is shown in other analytics services.
You should be fine as long as you add information in footer or in about section that website is created for fun purposes, and that you are not responsible for any coins being frozen on exchanges.

Let's get back on Wasabi wallet topic.
They answered best they could and we can't expect them to change course now when they decided the route they are going.
We can still support the idea of alternative coordinator or some Wasabi fork that would work without any censorship, but someone needs to take risk with this.
4423  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Anyone tried FTX swap with Ledger Live? on: July 11, 2022, 12:27:30 PM
You will be connecting basically your whole cryptocurrency stash (from ledger live) to your FTX account. Those two companies most likely will share our personal data with each other, as they are partners (and ledger doesn't really have the best reputation handling personal data)
They can't share anything if you don't have any history of transactions in your Ledger Live app Wink
You can easily create new empty account and only thing you would share is IP address, until or if you made some swap transactions.
I was not talking about KYC account at FTX so there would be no personal data to share anyway, and we already know that ledger is sharing other data with all of their third party partners.

I found few videos testing how this FTX-ledger swap works, and it had better rates than Changelly.
You all know I am not supporting ledger in any way, but this could be one function that can actually be useful if available without kyc.

4424  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Show off your hardware wallet on: July 11, 2022, 12:18:13 PM
Considering that only a few users have posted so far, perhaps it's time to find them from other threads
I agree with you on this, we have five pages talking mostly about things that have nothing to do with hardware wallet showing-off, and Pmalek just revived it with one more unrelated old news post, I guess that is a skill also Cheesy
4425  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [unofficial] CoinDebit NO-KYC pre-paid cards? on: July 11, 2022, 11:21:10 AM
Architecturally, the only way to get a good idea about the path of a payment is if you run a lot of Lightning nodes such that the full path (or portion of it) from a sender to a receiver is covered by your nodes.
I am certain that government and tracking analytics companies are running lightning nodes already, and they are trying to improve LN tracking.
Maybe you heard about Arcane OS that was advertised as Anom phone but secretly operated by government agencies.
You can even find some of those devices today, usually as Google Pixel, but they obviously don't work anymore.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EA1KS-xh0n0

Regarding your question about withdrawing your funds from card back to the Bitcoin wallet, I really doubt that is possible as from what I understand, CoinDebit is a prepaid card.
Even if this was possible, it would probably be custodial wallet so you wouldn't have full control, and they would have to charge extra fees for that.
It's not impossible, but I don't think this will happen for CoinDebit cards.



Interesting news for CoinDebit VIRTUAL card is that it can be now used anywhere in the world that accepts Visa cards, but we need to wait for physical cards to be available.

4426  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What happened to preev.com? on: July 11, 2022, 10:50:16 AM
I never use Preev website and I don't know the real reason of website going down, but it could be developers just stopped maintaining it or certificate expired.
There are many usable alternative options, and one of them looks interesting, similar to calculator and it can show mBTC, bit and sat units, along with BTC.
Coingecko or coinmarketcap websites are also working fine for this purpose.

but again it proves that the problem is with the tool I use for posting.
This is such stupid excuse  Roll Eyes
You are the one who is using and controlling this ''tool'' so that means that YOU are responsible for this spam duplicate topics, and if you continue using it I think you deserve to be punished with signature ban or temporary ban.
I don't know why you can't use this forum and write like all other human beings, but for now I will give you neutral feedback on your profile.

Leaving red trust and flag due to this case aren't correct, but neutral flag and asking campaign manager to look this case are enough.
I agree and that is what I did, but moderators should also look at this case.
4428  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Nano S Plus on: July 10, 2022, 08:22:41 PM
Probably this is due to the fact that the low quality of the buttons on s+ is combined with their reduced functionality as, opposite to s,  one has to press the button every time to modify the display readings. Considering the frequent  pressing and low quality, there is a rapid wear of the buttons on s+.
They use cheapest junk plastic and you can't even find .STL files anywhere for 3d printing.
Since they are already retiring model nono S, I don't know why they don't release everything as open source, so people can repair and 3d print their junk on their own.
They probably can't make any money from doing this, so they just don't care, unlike Trezor and Passport are releasing everything as open source.
I don't understand why would they hide design of their cases for S plus, when someone could probably suggest how to improve them.

How downloaded file can be checked? Not so long ago I used to compare its sha512sum hash with that one published  on https://live.ledger.tools/lld-signatures   but now it seems that this method doesn't work as that site does not publishes hashes for fresh releases.
Ledger is scoring auto-goals all the time.
First they released firmware as closed source but they brag how their Ledger Live application is open source, now this can't be verified... what a circus wallet this is  Cheesy

4429  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Anyone tried FTX swap with Ledger Live? on: July 10, 2022, 08:09:12 PM
Is this not another way noncustodial addresses will be linked to real identity of exchange users in the future? We all know what exchanges can later make mandatory.
If it's now working with non-kyc account and they later change something you can always stop using it and disconnect your hardware wallet.
It's centralized exchange so I wouldn't trust they would run something like this forever.

I can try something similar with FTX just to check the rates later. I am not doing their KYC though.
I don't mind paying higher fees if it can be done without kyc, but I would think twice if I had to wait for hours for swap transaction to complete.
There are options for atomic swaps that can be added to ledger Live with lower fees, but I guess ledger wont earn so much money with that.

I see there are some troubles for people who rushed to try new FTX swap feature with their ledger devices, and it's not working like expected.
Swapping coins is taking hours in some cases so don't expect quick exchange, and I saw they are charging higher fees for this service:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ledgerwallet/comments/vuxkvg/why_does_swap_via_ftx_take_so_long_so_frustrated/

Other people are reporting unknown error messages when trying to swap coins and there are no explanation from ledger support:

4430  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Voyager has filed for bankruptcy in NY court. Deposits there in serious risk. on: July 10, 2022, 07:39:08 PM
Looks like Sam Bankman-Fried (FTX owner) and Almeida Research is trying to save Voyager and they extended $500 million line of credit to Voyager Digital.
Risky bailout move that could prolong shutdown of Voyager, and they did similar thing last month with giving BlockFi $250 million.
I know Sam earned a lot of money from crypto but I don't understand this move from him, unless this is some next level chess game.
4431  Other / Meta / Re: Should there be a central warning board (not reputation) on: July 10, 2022, 06:59:38 PM
Would think it would be best if posting was supposed to be like the press board with everything starting with a date.  More like the 'bad press board' :-)
I posted yesterday small info about this coinify news related with ledger in hardware wallet board, but I don't think this is emergency information that needs to be in some separate warning board.
Something similar could be added  on top above menu in Latest news like one we have for latest Bitcoin Core releases, or important forum updates, but I doubt moderators will have time to post regular updates.
Maybe one small side project could be made with BPIP extension that would post warnings like this, but we need to activate suchmoon and ibminer for this Wink
 
4432  Other / Meta / Re: Hey, is there a way to delete my account? on: July 10, 2022, 06:41:43 PM
If so, does the content that I posted on here stay on here under my name or does it show up as "deleted user" or something like that?
Even if you delete all your posts you should know that everything is archived and backed up in bitcointalk forum with multiple services from LoyceV and Ninjastic.
You can't delete topics that you created even if you wanted, only way is to ask moderators to do this for you, but like I said archives will remain.
If you wanted to hide your real IP address you should use earlier something like Tor browser or vpn services, but now it's to late for that.
I would not worry so much about this, unless you shared some really sensitive private information in public.

@CryptoCloaks Just wondering are you shipping from United States and to what countries exactly?
I already ordered and printed some stuff locally, but I wanted to see how much you would charge and maybe test Bitcoin or LN payments.
There is something little confusing I found in you About page, stating only countries you shipped written below, with some that don't even exist (I think),
for example country Reunion, Republic. Lativa and Austrilia... so you might want to correct this  Cheesy

United States, Japan, Austrailia, Germany, Mexico, Canada, China, Switzerland, UK, France, Norway, Romania, Slovenia, Ireland, Czech, Republic, Reunion, The Netherlands, Thailand, Lativa, Poland, Israel, Spain.

4434  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Which is the best Hardware Wallet ? on: July 09, 2022, 08:29:49 PM
1) Security
I think airgapped hardware wallets Keystone and Passport are most secure options, because they are not connected with any other device or computer.
Transactions are sent only by QR codes, and they are easier to use in my opinion.

2) Compatibility
Good hardware wallets should work with third party software wallets and be compatible with Electrum, BlueWallet, and other open source wallets.
Trezor, Keystone, Bitbox, Ledger, Passport all have good compatibility.

3) Ease of Use
Keystone and Passport, but they are bigger in size than other more popular wallets.

4) Option to store X number of coins
Storing bunch of shitcoins on hardware wallet is like storing a bunch of bananas in super secure vault.
Something will get rotten and die very soon in both cases.
Passport wallet only supports Bitcoin, so I would exclude that for you.

5) Last but not the least; Price
You get what you pay for.
I personally wouldn't pay much for currently available hardware wallets, but I think price between $50 and $200 are ok for most people.
Look for discount codes or black friday deals if you want to save money.

6) Any important thing which I may have missed
Open Source, Privacy, not breaking easy as ledger...

i have prepared a fully a complete answer to your allegations, then I thought that since I already have white hair it made no sense to argue with disrespectful kids. I simply put you on "ignore" so don't bother to answer any more. thanks
Sorry if you think this way, but I never argued with you and I don't think I was disrespectful in any way, but maybe you forgot to drink your medications.
This is my topic about Open Source Hardware Wallets, not about me giving advices what you should or shouldn't buy with your own money.

Back on topic, there are few new hardware wallets ready to be added on this list, but I am waiting for the official release and updates.

I tried to re-produce the bug and found an issue with Firefox when the referrer headers are disabled in-combination with Chart.js.

Are you using Firefox, if so can you check if you disabled referrer headers?
Last time I tried it in several different browsers like Librewolf (fork of Firefox with custom settings), Firefox and Chromium with default settings plus uBlockOrigin, and I was getting the exact same issues.
However, I just checked your website again and it's working perfectly normal, loading all charts, so it must have been some temporary glitch.
4438  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: [Tip] Live Linux, Live Windows on: July 09, 2022, 07:30:03 PM
I've used Ventoy
I think that Ventoy is much better alternative for this purpose and I think that Ventoy is open source.
Used it several times so far and it worked perfectly for both Linux and wiNd0ws operating system, much better than creating new usb drives with OS each time.
I can't find any license for Easy2Boot, except that it's a freeware and probably closed source software.

Wow, just wow! I forgot how amazingly shitty anything Windows related is. First thing I do: close popup. That opens a new tab. Next click: Download. That opens a gaming portal and another tab again. Now I get Youtube videos, but still no download link. It turns out I need to donate $20 through Paypal to get a download link. Never mind.
wiNd0ws is crap, but you can find websites like this with popups related with anything, like movies, software, games, p0rn, etc.
I think they live and survive for advertisement popups, and most people don't even use any Ad blockers, believe it or not  Cheesy
btw good open source tool for blocking all ads on smartphones is called Blokada5.

We changed the layout of our Coinplate Grid product to use a bit of encryption that some of our customers asked for.
I wouldn't call this a real encryption, but I guess it could work better for some people, while I prefer regular words myself.
Are there any news and updates regarding Jameson Lopp detail testing of your Coinplate, like we talked about several months ago?
Prices from 74€ to 257€ are a bit to much for my taste for something that was never independently tested and reviewed.

Feel free to get back with suggestions or comments
Are there any fees for this wallet service or is it completely free?
It's not clear to me if I can use this wallet standalone or I need to use Blockonomics merchant page.
I saw on Blockonomics website there is 1%, with first 20 payments being free, but I am not sure if that is for complete package or not.
