April 1st sounds like a terrible date for any announcement.
Well, it's not an announcement, it's a start date. I wouldn't announce a joke before it's April 1st.
Anyway, I changed my signature already.

Honestly, this is the first time that I know that Electrum does not provide enough privacy and that it is possible to trace the IP address through its use. In addition to the large number of users of mobile and desktop versions, many others use their hardware wallets with Electrum. In your opinion, what is the most private way to safely use a Hardware Wallet?
Using your hardware wallet with Electrum is generally better for privacy than using it's manufacturer's software. In that case you're certain someone knows all your transactions.
If you want privacy: run Electrum through Tor. Or better: run your own Bitcoin Core node through Tor. And always use coin control to manually select which inputs to use.

If it doesn't work: try a different image host.

Test this:
Code:

4766  Other / Meta / Re: Bounty spammer meets AI Chat generator. Can they be banned on the spot? on: March 29, 2023, 10:18:50 AM
Another thought I have on this subject was the following scenario: Someone use ChatGPT to translate a text.

I, for example, normally use google translator to write my posts in English. If I ask chat to do this translation, maybe it will translate a little better. Does this cease to be my text? I don't think it is any longer, but it could certainly make the text more likely to be detected as a false positive.

It is really not easy to detect what is or is not 100% AI-created text.
I think this covers it:
27. Using automated translation tools to post translated content in Local boards is not allowed.
It's allowed on the English boards. I think you're okay: It's plagiarism if you translate someone else's text and don't mention the original. By that logic, it can't be plagiarism if you translate your own text.
4767  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Exchanging BTC with this community will serve the purpose of mixing? on: March 29, 2023, 09:48:29 AM
If this kind of community-driven mixing will work, then I guess we can see people do start providing services for mixing like lending.
It depends on who you're hiding from. If you don't want your local barista to know you just bought a jet with Bitcoin, this may work. But the community-member you "exchanged" your Bitcoin with could still find out about your jet.

Quoting for the image to show up:
I wanted to report your post (advertising isn't allowed), but it actually looks good and fits the topic. If you accept Bitcoin, you should create a topic on the Goods board.

But he is not satisfied with that. Coinplay representative account was active a few minutes ago.
Don't expect everyone to find everything that is happening on the forum. Have anyone informed them about the accusation?
OP posted in their topic:
Coinplay have scammed me out of my fairly won NBA winnings. Read more about it here:

You better send them a PM. I have PMed a few people today so far. I don't want to PM anymore in case there are any limit set for PM and I hit it 🤣
You're "limited" to 1200 PMs per day.

so .. there is no way to somehow group the 200k txns into some order so the dust can be consolidated into the 4 - 7 btc that its showing?
id have to say that sounds reasonable to what is occurring...
Can you start by answering this?
So OP: what did you do? Cheesy
I can think of several things to try, but it kinda depends on how you got here. If you just imported a shitload of publicly known private keys, chances are the total balance is 0 and you'll only see that after it finishes syncing.
4772  Other / Meta / Re: Links should open in a new tab - Target="_blank" on: March 28, 2023, 11:03:30 AM
I'm on a laptop at the moment which only has a trackpad, by default I don't have the ability with any gestures or multi-finger clicks I do on the trackpad to open a new tab, I could try to change the mouse settings...
On Linux, the pressing left/right at the same time on the touchpad emulates the middle mouse button. Or, depending on the touchpad, you can click exactly in the middle.
4773  Other / Meta / Re: Links should open in a new tab - Target="_blank" on: March 28, 2023, 09:56:13 AM
I've seen the middle-mouse button mentioned, but not everyone has that.
The middle-mouse button is the scroll wheel. Are there still people who don't have that? It makes life so much easier Cheesy
4774  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 2023 List Bitcoin Mixers Bitcoin Tumblers Websites on: March 28, 2023, 08:06:55 AM
I left the links to v2 because it doesn't damage to let them and for reference if I needed later. When we went from v2 to v3, I updated as the mixers made the switch, but some never did. The question is why? My theory is that they just dropped it with Tor because no one was using them and they preferred to stay on the clearnet only.
Mixtum has an updated .onion link on their site now.
XXL Mixer can just as well be removed entirely, it doesn't have a clearnet link and it doesn't have a working Tor link either.

or you put it there without realizing what you were doing (meaning that you must have copied it from somewhere else first - it's not a Coinmama deposit address?).
I didn't know this, but Coinmama Wallet is actually non-custodial so this is a real possibility! OP would still need to find his wallet details though.
4777  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Get Armory Online in order to receive BTC ? on: March 27, 2023, 10:20:45 AM
I'm a little depserate here...
First: chill Smiley Your Bitcoins should be safe, so make sure you don't mess up trying to rush things.
Next: did you create a backup of your Armory wallet? If not, you should do that now!

I've used many wallets, but I've never used Armory. From what I've seen, it's a very good wallet, but for me, it's not the worth the hassle.
Syncing Bitcoin Core means downloading and verifying 500 GB. Depending on your computer and internet connection, it can take less than a day (with a modern CPU, 16 GB RAM, 4096MB or more dbcache, SSD, high speed internet) or it can take many weeks if you lack computing power or internet speed.
If you're not in a rush, just let it sync.
If you are less patient, you can export the private key, and sweep that into a new Electrum wallet. Depending on how much value you're holding you may want to consider a hardware wallet for security. Whatever you do, make sure you understand what you're doing before doing it!
Note that people will try to scam you by PM, so don't trust them. And don't share your private key with anyone.

Then I will rephrase words "used to" and "habit" with: I am a reckless and lazy cryptocurrency user, that will lose funds one day because "that will never happen to me" or "it works until it is broken" scenarios. I am lazy to create a new address in Electrum and write Hhampuz to change my signature reward address...
Makes sense Smiley

If you ever want to improve: get a hardware wallet, and set it up with Electrum. It combines security with flexibility. I'll probably tell you the same again a few years from now Wink
4779  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BitGo withdrawal fee is too high on: March 27, 2023, 09:45:21 AM
Why are you using "BitGo"?
I have already answered that to you two years ago Smiley
Lol. I didn't read back the entire topic indeed. Let me rephrase that: why are you still using BitGo? Wink

Quote
Because BitGo was among recommended wallets, it was an online wallet, it was easy to create a wallet, I needed a wallet here and now, and dont have time to read, search and test other, plus was not allowed to download and install anything on work PC. So an online wallet was my solution. I had been using it for year because... I simply got used to it. But with time, I have noticed that it has started working different, not as usually. Usually, Ive made transactions with more or less same $ value and 1 sat/byte fee and they got confirmed with several hours, with years several hours have changed to half a day, day, week.
Bitcoin fees went up a lot in the past month, partially caused by large spam transactions.

For what it's worth: I would never use "recommended" and "web wallet" together Wink

It currently has 18 confirmations. But why didn't you use CPFP?
Blockchair shows they use 2/3 multisig. That makes the transaction larger than necessary. Since you're dealing with small inputs, that's a waste of fees.

Your second transaction basically did a CPFP: Child Pays For Parent. Meaning: your second transaction paid enough fees for a miner to include both transactions in a block.

Quote
BitGo wanted to charge me $6 for a transaction that they were going to confirm anyway together with second transaction?
I've never used BitGo and I don't know how it works, but you make it sound as if it's a custodial wallet. They're not miners, so all they could do is CPFP to get your transaction confirmed. And it looks like they want to earn $6 from that.



Why are you using "BitGo"?
