Does anybody realized that the image was obviously edited ( the "amount part" was pasted over the original image). I don't know what was the OP's intention on posting this but it would be nice to hear his explanation   Original Image: |

You can mine bitcoin with any gpu or cpu, go ahead and if by luck you find a block that is a lot of money. Never underestimate the power of luck, you can take billions of billions of billions of billions of years to find a block or few seconds.
Or buy a lottery ticket. The chance of winning is literally multiple times higher than solo mining Bitcoins using GPUs.
@ coinforlife Those who have a similar mindset aren't mining " professionally" really. They aren't taking every aspect in account, just speculating the possible future isn't " meaningful" at all. Of course, that's a bonus if it happened. |

If the GPUs have stock firmwares, you can immediately sell them by piece ( not wholesale) to any online stores and you might get " Capital Return" in no time. Include the parts as Bundles ( ex. Mobo, RAM & Procie) and you will definitely ROI... if you have the time to sell them. Otherwise, Grin is the best candidate to mine using those GPUs but I suspect that the seller had been mining Grin using that rig and realized that it will take years to ROI so he decided to sell it  |

Have you upgraded to the new Microsoft Edge browser? It's chromium based and should run the same as Google Chrome. It wouldn't be ideal for them to warn against an old browser version when it should run on the newest. AFAIK, Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer are totally different browsers, the first one is not an updated version. Older version of Windows ( like W7 and below) doesn't have Edge by default. |

Does it still say " pending" or something else? If it's pending, there might be something going on to their system, a technical issue or sort. Also, there are tons of open scam accusations against 999dice here in this board ( since 2015). Ex ( from missing deposits, halted withdrawals to not-probably fair): Most withdrawal issues were ( first time) " high-value" withdrawal after a few successful " low-value" withdrawals. |

Odd thing is that if i keep refreshing the tx page on blockstream's explorer, it will sometimes find the tx and sometimes won't.
Try to broadcast it using their own broadcaster ( nodes) to manually include your TX to their nodes. This wont help you get confirmation but it may keep that TX included to their nodes. Blockstream Broadcast TX | Blockcypher Broadcast TX< !> There seems to be a problem with blockcypher's server. |

1/ I have some bitcoins sent to my bitcoin core from coinbase to a whole new bitcoin core wallet on my laptop
2/ i realised that i don't have enough space on my laptop, so i tried to migrate it to an external disk
3/ Done, the sync continue but it takes forever ! So i decided to migrate this "bitcoin" folder on my disk to my big computer which has more space and more power by replacing the whole bitcoin folder (with the wallet.dat inside)
4/ Sync continues and finished but no balance.
5/ I don't know how to trace it so read some internet advice to install electrum and import the address.
6/ which made me create a Watch only wallet.
7/ since I need some bitcoin i was saying that while waiting to solve this, i can send some more from coinbase to this brand new wallet to use them. But totally zapped the fact that i was using a Watch Only wallet.
If you found the previous statements hard to understand, just go follow these steps straight-forward: Just revise #5 and #6 since that " random internet advice" seemed misleading you but it clearly said " trace". - If you still have the Bitcoin Core client on your laptop with the original wallet.dat, open the console (Help->Debug Window->Console)
- Type (including the quotation marks): walletpassphrase "Your_Wallet_Passphrase/Password" 300
- Then type: dumpprivkey 1DzUpRzr93r3EizQW58GDamgwgwAiZ2Vyc
- That address' private key will show up and copy it (case sensitive, starts with 5, K or L)
- Create another Electrum wallet by typing a random wallet name and use "import private key(s)" option. Do not "Sweep" it to the watch-only wallet.
Note: The bitcoin Core client doesn't need to be synced to be able to export the private key. |

Just make a copy of your current wallet file in case of a wallet corruption (very very slim chance).
You can find it inside the %appdata% folder "Electrum/wallets" by default; otherwise, you can always recover via SEED.
If you're using the stand-alone executable version, it's as simple as "download and open" like there's nothing happened.

And FYI, you don't need to "crossfire" the two GPUs to be able to mine. That's only multi-GPU support for games and graphics.
When mining, each GPU works independently.
Your selected mining software will do the job for you.

To be honest I think this is going a bit too far... For example, segwit is about the same sort of thing as ln and it doesn't make sense to make a section for either. However putting it in alternate wallet software might be an idea if deemed necessary.
Segwit isn't much of a discussion-material since the end-user will just have to create a SegWit address using their clients to use it. Few topics is enough to cover it. Lightning is a different matter, there are tons of services dedicated to LN and setting your own node can have multiple issues that requires individual topics. IMO, A child-board inside Bitcoin Technical Discussion is good to sort-out Lightning Network threads. |

Blockcypher will allow you to add " Meta Data" to any bitcoin address... But, anyone can do it even without the private key. Just click the " </> Add Metadata" button below the page after you copy-paste-search an address. Example: 3LgUWbSkwvKoTdn8xexf7GqpVBRLwMs6TE( Scroll to the bottom of the page: this was written "Sample Metadata from Bitcointalk: 04-June-2019")

But it's been a week since blender announced that " Bitblender will close soon". Try to contact him directly here in the forum, here's the official account: blender | Here's the official [ANN] Thread: [ANN] Bitcoin Blender, anonymous bitcoin mixerHis last login was on May 31 but he might login later on. Also, this should be moved to Service Discussion if you're not paying with Bitcoins  |

What's crazy here is Bitdefender detected the " shortcut" (. lnk) file as the one with the virus, not the executable  There are known viruses that infects shortcuts to spread to the system, your system might be already infected prior to the installation. Take note that Electrum does have a lot of false positives from multiple Antivirus Software but the latest version of Bitdefender shouldn't have any detection to Electrum v3.3.6: BitDefender Undetected It may also be caused by your Antivirus' "aggressiveness" settings. |

Any explanation?
So this concludes that the issue wasn't from the forum, but from the email service provider. Maybe because all the email notifications for replies have the same subject/title ( ex. Re:Thread Title) unlike new threads with different titles, your email service mistakenly identifying them as spam. I can't comprehend " wired experience" though. |

This may be a dumb question but why not do it in one big transaction to save on fees?
Whether if it's a $10 transaction or $10,000, if there's only one input and output, both will have the same fee and will be cheap even with 100+sat/b fee. Transaction's fee is not based from the amount being sent, it's based from the total size and the fee rate. The size will be bigger if there's more inputs and slightly bigger with more outputs, the type of address can minimize the size too. I'll edit this later if found anything.
-Edit-This may be inaccurate, based from questionable sources. If you follow the trail of those 14.something BTC transactions, you'll see this transaction: 576ff94ee61525ed30fd5537b69ce65d9bde3ffce8441c1040a547f8bcedc046 that sent a bunch of exactly 15BTC to multiple bech32 addresses, each might have been used for sending solo/priority withdrawals ( they saved some fees since it's one input-two outputs tx), then later consolidated. Next, if you follow the " hot wallet" you'll stumble upon the wallet dedicated for huge balance: 3LRHZZmHrQWtnYag6HjMBWejXEuAEGo9rR. Tagged by whale-alert site as " Poliniex" which is an exchange. |

However, I feel I'm right in thinking either way I'll now have lost this money. If there is a way to reclaim from dodgy dealers and we have a suitable post here with how to do this, please point the direction to look and I'll take it from their.
Bad news, unlike traditional payment processors, there's no way to reclaim sent bitcoins. Once the transaction got included in a block ( aka. 1+ confirmation), it will cannot be undone. The only way to recover your funds is to convince the dealer to send the same amount of bitcoins back to your wallet. If you don't mind, can you tell the name of that " dealer"? |

Here's more info about " change address": bitcoin wiki / Exodus Support. Basically, bitcoin's UTXO system is similar to fiat payments; you have to choose from a couple of bills to pay for something and if there's an excess amount, that will be the change. In Exodus' case it spent a " huge bill" from " 1P5" and " payed" " 3ME" ( you), but there's an excess amount that should be sent back to Exodus' wallet: " 1GZ". You can always check the whole transaction detail in a blockexplorer by pasting the transaction ID. |

(lol) bitart, if you're serious about your question, yes it can run a Grin node with the right peripherals like HDD.
But you can't mine Grin with it alone.
Additionally, you don't even need a Grin node to mine Grin, that's only an option if you want to solo-mine Grin or contribute to the network by running a node.
All you need is a GPU rig, a mining software and a mining pool (account); or the announced Grin ASICs (just google search).
TL;DR: The raspberry pi is unnecessary.

My rigs are in different parts of apartment and therefore using Wired is not possible. I had to use wifi extender and connect rig to that extender using wired connection. It works usually but still wanted to find out option of removing the extender.
Thanks everyone for help.
For extremely long cables to connect the extender/another network switch, just buy a long cat-6 cable and two ( or more) RJ-45 connectors. You can just " crimp" it yourself ( if you have the tools and expertise, even time for practice is enough) or pay a computer technician to do that for you. Usually, they only charge less than the service fee for a simple crimping. |

Hey, the " hot wires" alone is a very bad sign of extremely high current running through those wires. You might wanna manage the PSU cables just like Harai Goshi said, or else, it will burn ( literally). Very high diference to earned money, but extreme consumition energy and xtreme high temperature and maybe FATAL use of my cards. Extra heat is common for overclocking since you're feeding the cards more power than usual but... It's not that " FATAL" for your GPUs as long as your cooling system is at best, if it's stable: it's good; but also... You've mentioned that the temps are too high, so you might needed a better cooling solution to lessen the strain to your GPUs if you want to push OC~ing. |
