I believe the default is now 24 words. So your software would also be looking for 23 spaces.
The smart thing to do is to create the wallet in an offline or airgapped computer.
This is not necessary with Trezor. This is the beauty of the Trezor. You don't need to worry about airgap or the computer in any way. Theoretically you can set up a Trezor on the most highly infected computer at your public library. You copy down the words from the Trezor display to paper. Make sure nobody sees the paper, keep it secure and safe. |

Can i wrote Private Key from this device on a paper,for my own peace of mind,or cant ?
The private keys cannot be directly accessed. That is the entire point of the device. However, you should/must write down the seed words and keep them private and very secure. With those 24 seed words every private key and every transaction ever done by the device can all be recovered. So, if you take the 24 words and do the right thing with them you can generate every possible private key the device has used or will ever use. |

It might also be good to sell some at the present price and buy back after August 1, both as a safety precaution and as a speculation move by buying at lower prices. The problem with it is you will be holding fiat in an exchange.
If you sell BTC then you will have less BTC so then you will end up with less of the new alt coin due to the split. My advice is to hold, wait for the split, this will maximize the number of alt coins you get, then later decide which coin is going to be "Bitcoin" and which one is going to be the alt, sell the alt, buy more "Bitcoin" with the money you get from selling the alt. |

HOLD. Wait for the dust to settle. Then you will have twice as many coins as before - just two types! Then you can keep both types of coins or sell of one type to consolidate into the other type. Should be fun.

hmm..distrib is really uneven..take example on MINEREUM for distrib more equitable..this bank schema of distrib is really disgusting.
I suggest you participate in MINEREUM since you like their distribution scheme and you not participate in BYTEBALL since their distribution scheme is so really disgusting. Don't let the door slam you in the butt on the way out.
Byteball needs to keep a decent capitalization to not be attacked by spamming. By distributing according to richness, you make sure that people can afford to hold the bytes you give them.
are yu stupid or focking crazy..this user will gets 1% of money supply at each rounds and yu tell me thats is focking secure !? he have 1% of money supply and he will more 2x at each rounds..may be gets 20 or 30 % at ending..what yu want ? centralized bbs ? WTF? Why the need to be so offensive? WHy don't you just try to make your point or give some rationale without being so mean? How old are you? Why the hell are you hanging around here then? If you are so upset by the distribution method then move along. There are plenty of other alt for you to choose from. Goodbye and good riddance. |

I see most of the addresses come from arrogant people, when looking at a blank address. If you look or look for some "new" address I think doing it is the best way.
What? Oh, never mind, you are just another piece of shit paid signature spammer dumping your daily steaming pile of posts on the forum. |

so i wanna know do i realy have to pay taxes on bitcoins and does my gov recognize bitcoins as my property and do i have to care about any legal action by gov on my bitcoin property ?
Read the thread.It is pointless to ask this question without stating what country you live in. Read the thread. |

I think there is a simpler solution.
1) Move all BTC off the addresses that had BTC on the distribution day to new addresses on your Trezor hardware wallet.
2) Import the private keys of all these addresses into the clam client
3) Get the clams [!]
4) Discard the Bitcoin private keys used to get clams and never use them again.
That way you do not have to be as careful as is described above.

What country do you live in?
If you do not return to check for an answer to your question and answer mine then you are, of course, just another piece of shit thread spammer with a paid signature.
I live in Canada. I guess I'm not the piece of shit thread spammer with a paid signature you thought I was. I understand that since it is effectively unmonitorable apart from when you're withdrawing it to a bank, it might not be entirely necessary to report it but I'm not completely sure about it. Obviously if you're making a large sum of profit off bitcoins then if you want to start spending it on relatively large investments you would have to explain the origin of the funds. Do you have clarification on the legal perspective of bitcoins? Good to see that at least one person in this thread is not just another piece of shit thread spammer! Don't know about Canada. I am in the US. In the US, mining Bitcoins is taxed as ordinary income and profit from trading is taxed as a capital gain. In the US you are required to report all your income from mining and all your profits from trading. There are no exceptions. If you do not report these things that is call tax evasion. All these people in this thread that say "Well I am just not going to pay the taxes" are just fine until they get caught. Then they will find out they owe all the taxes they did not pay, interest on all the taxes they did not pay and fines for not paying them. How will they get caught? It does not matter. We will just have to wait and see how they get caught. At least some of them will get caught. I paid every cent of taxes on all of my Bitcoin income and capital gains and I was still "caught" for something different - not having a business licence to use localbitcoins.com. I faced 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for that. All these people can bury their head in the sand and claim they do not have to pay taxes for some asinine reason or another but for at least some of them it will end like this: Bitcoin tax evader: "But Mr. IRS agent, people on the interwebby thing told me that since it is not legal tender I don't have to pay taxes" Mr. IRS agent: "You believed that total bullshit? I guess we will just have to fine you extra for being such a naive idiot." Bottom line: if you do not pay the taxes and you get caught, by whatever means, you will owe the taxes, interest and penalties. It is tax evasion, simple as that. I am a Filipino, and in our country (Philippines) there is no such thing as this, or maybe I am just not well informed but I don't seem to have any idea on how will they track you for tax evading? If its your ip address you can use vpn and there are so many ways to get away from it, another thing how do they calculate your total taxes? Maybe you guys don't have an income tax? In the US "they" don't calculate my tax. It is up to the me to report all my income, calculate how much tax I owe and then pay it. "They" give us all the forms to fill out but it is up to us to fill out the forms. How they track your income for tax evasion charges is up to the government. They have many ways to do this. Sure you can evade paying the taxes until you get caught. |

I can't understand if my addresses are re-used. Example:
I create a wallet with Electrum and it generates by default some receiving addresses (A, B, C...)
then if I receive one incoming transaction in A and another in B, I have re-used my addresses or both are safe?
As long as you use each of the default receiving addresses only once then you are not reusing the addresses. I am not sure how that can be made more clear. If you send, or have people send, Bitcoins to the same address more than once then you are reusing the address. Also, if you spend the Bitcoins from an address, then send Bitcoins to that same address again, then spend them from that address again you are reusing the address. Ideally there should only be one single transaction to send Bitcoins to the address and then one single transaction to spend the Bitcoins from the address and then the address should never be used again. |

I need to send some bitcoins, but I’m not sure how long I must wait. I thought it was “safe” when the first two transactions disappeared, but that wasn’t the case. Based on what happened before, I’m assuming if I try again, the same thing will happen, since there is still an unconfirmed transaction. So how long should I wait before I try again? When will the double spend transactions disappear from my wallet?
Only blockchain.info knows. I suggest you contact their support and ask. I suggest you move to proper wallet software like Bitcoin Core. It may be burdensome considering synchronizing and hardware use, but at least you can be sure that transactions are working 100% as intended. Normally 2 days wait time should lead to automatic reappearance of transactions with insufficient fees. Blockchain.info seems to be mixing things up here. Blockchain.info, or someone else, appears to be rebroadcasting failed transactions in a kind of "low fee transaction rebroadcast" attack. All these poor people/noobs just trying to send Bitcoins get screwed. Is there any way to find out who is rebroadcasting all these failed transactions? |

I have the same situation with Blockchain.info. The history is not showing on the desktop client. But it is showing on the Blockchain.info app. I contacted them and they said they are expecting it fixed within 72 hours. That was 68 hours ago and it hasn't been fixed yet. They did not say more what it could be.
My account had a weird thing happen. The week before (between the 8th to the 14th May 2017), I sent through three transactions. They remained unconfirmed for days. Then they dropped out of the blockchain and I see the funds got returned to me. I tried again, but still those transactions remain unconfirmed since the 19th of May.
Then at night, the transactions that I tried to resend the week between 8-14th, got resent while I was sleeping. I thought someone stole my Bitcoins but it doesn't look like it because they look like duplicates of what I tried to do.
I'll follow up with them later. I'll let you know how I go. Please advise me of your progress also.
Hey, mctrader001: this guy https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1008973 sounds a lot like you. Did you start another account? If so why are you starting two new accounts? You do not need to start a new account every time you log in. |

Both transactions are still unconfirmed. So, he needs to just wait until both transactions get dropped, he gets his coins back, then resend the entire amount again - only this time with the appropriate fee.
How long does it take for a transaction to get dropped? how do you know it gets dropped? does it just return to your wallet? Yes. BTW: Hey, staco99: this guy https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1009466 sounds a lot like you. Did you start another account? If so why are you starting two new accounts? You do not need to start a new account every time you log in. |
