5181  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Excessive Elektrum Fees on: June 04, 2022, 04:33:40 PM
You don't have to rely and use the estimates that Electrum suggests. Set your own fees. Right now while writing this post, mempool.space shows an almost empty mempool with less than 700 unconfirmed transactions. That means that 1 sat/vByte is all it takes (probably). But if you have hundreds of UTXO, it can be problematic.

If you set the fees to 1 sat/vByte or 1.1-1.2 sat/vByte just in case the mempools start to fill up and that would give your transaction a bit of an edge compared with everyone else paying only 1 sat, is it still too expensive for you?
5182  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Old Version For Cold Storage on: June 04, 2022, 04:20:20 PM
You can always download the newest version on your online machine, bring it over to the offline PC with a USB stick, verify the signatures, and install it if everything is ok. I think there was an issue with the signing process for multisigs was there not? If one Electrum app is 4.0 or higher, they all have to be at least 4.0, meaning you can't use Electrum 3.3.8 in this combination. Maybe my brain is playing tricks on me and I am thinking of something else.   
5183  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What Do Centralized Exchanges Consider as Taint? on: June 04, 2022, 03:52:52 PM
There is also the argument that nothing you hold on an exchange is legally yours in the first place. As we saw in the recent Coinbase filings with the SEC, anything you deposit to Coinbase is legally theirs, and you are an "unsecured creditor".
Are you talking about the new SEC requirement where cryptocurrency exchanges are required to warn investors about the dangers of storing crypto in their accounts? There is a part that says that in case of bankruptcy, anything held with an exchange is considered to be the possession of that exchange. It seems like it was always like that, the only difference now is that SEC wants the platforms to make that absolutely clear to their users through their TOS.

So this is a wallet that allows privacy correct?  Recall i read someone mention an exchange i think gemini asked them about why they used wasabi to move coins to gemini or something like that and that person account had an issue?  So using wasabi can get your exchange account frozen or closed?
It used to be a wallet that focused on privacy and users were able to use its services improve and strengthen the privacy and origin of their coins. But that's a thing of the past now. Now it's just a wallet that does business with chain analysis companies.

Gemini, Coinbase, Binance.US and certainly several other centralized exchanges don't like not knowing everything about your coins. So you are treated as a criminal if you mix them. If you mix them, you make it harder to follow the trail and they tag them as tainted or dirty. If your data can't be sold to third parties, you are no use to them.

Isn't Mane already official to Bayern Monaco?
Official? No. The club has reportedly agreed terms with the player's agents, but they still need to discuss the transfer fees and other details with Liverpool.

Tell me something please. Why do Italians call Munich and Bayern Munchen Bayern Monaco? I have seen it numerous times in Italian press and TV. If Munich is Monaco, what is Monaco to Italians?

I do not get all the talks about Bayern finally "getting rid of Lewa and getting someone young". Benzema is 35 and he is doing great as well, he won the UCL nearly by himself, would you sell him too? I feel like Lewa should be their stiker and they should not spend 100 million on a player like Osimhen.
The problem is that Lewandowski wants to leave during this summer transfer window and he isn't trying to hide it. He has one year left on his contract, but he want's to move to Spain and play for Barcelona. He has basically said in an interview that he considers his time in Bayern to be finished and hopes the club will honor his wishes and let him go.

If you google more on the subject and the matter and the problems in court you will know how wrong and useless your comment is.
Your assumptions are useless. Whether or not Gate.io has started scamming their users has got nothing to do with the fact that Italian authorities aren't allowing them to provide services to Italian citizens. Would you call them legit if Consob didn't make that decision and wrote that announcement? No, of course not.

Binance has had its license blocked or not extended in several territories. I remember reading not that long ago that they will no longer be allowed to operate in Singapore due to licensing issues. They had issues with UK regulators previously in the past. That does not mean they were scamming UK and Singapore-based customers.

Gate.io may or may not be a scam site. Their licensing problems in Italy have nothing to do with it. It works the other way around as well. If Italian authorities allowed them to provide services to Italian citizens, you can't use that as an argument they are a legit and non-scamming exchange.   
5188  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: LTC CASINO NOT paying winnings . 1496 Ltc to be paid on: June 04, 2022, 06:55:47 AM
<Snip>
If Wazdan had a bug or the games were malicious or allowed players to take advantage of 3rd-party scripts and whatnot, don't you think some other casino somewhere would have noticed the same thing? Wouldn't they be delisted from other casinos like crazy? Wouldn't we have more of similar scam accusations of players being refused to withdraw their winnings because site operators found bugs in them and refused to pay?

Show us the report by SoftSwiss that confirms the bugs in the games!


According to this source, Wazdan games can be found on 678 different casinos.
Casino Guru lists 1347 casinos that have incorporated games from Wazdan.

Here is one beauty explaining how to deposit to a crypto casino. I think that's what is being talked about here. Apparently, it's a simple process, yet the balance goes from here. You deposit with your balance and then the value is briefly converted to tidal dollar. Tidal dollars should under no circumstances be confused with atomic dollars. The post ends with a philosophical thought and the question, "what is here", where are we, and what is our purpose?   

What we can see from here is that as far as it is really quite simple but here it is but the balance goes from here.
When we deposit it through the balance but it is supposed to convert the dollar value here briefly according to the current exchange rate, but the tidal dollar that circulates here is the value of the atomic dollar by withdrawing a lot from here but what is here?  Much depends on the main ingredient here
5190  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What Do Centralized Exchanges Consider as Taint? on: June 04, 2022, 06:28:46 AM
I can remember this also applied to Coinbase...
Coinbase never provided any information about what they consider to be taint when I asked them, but considering they are a US-based centralized exchange, I can only assume they have similar "rules" as does Gemini and Binance.US. If the source of the Bitcoin is a gambling platform, you will probably experience some problems depositing them into a Coinbase account. Off-shore and out-of-state gambling is illegal in certain States in the US, but that's just part of the problem.

But that is not what tainted coins are if the gambling site are legal and follow government rules and regulations. Tainted coins are coins that are determined to have been used for illegal purpose before.
Coins used in both legal and illegal ventures can end up in your wallet without you having done anything wrong. The same is true for fiat money. Imagine if someone were to check the history of your €50 bill you take out of your wallet when you are paying for gas and instead of getting into your car, you are called into the owner's office with police to ask questions who you are and where you got that paper bill from?

So you finally came to your senses and realized that if you don't have proof of wrongdoings, you can't deny a player his winnings based on your hunch. 

Our white-label operator SoftSwiss, hosting over 200 respected casino brands, unequivocally classifies this win as a fraud.
Based on your track record, I assume this statement won't be backed by any proof, will it? Their investigators confirmed the player cheated but you are not going to present any kind of report or evidence that explains what the player did exactly.
5193  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Fraud company localbitcoins.com (Scammer Vladislav Alimpiev) on: June 03, 2022, 08:56:39 AM
It's hard to read the support messages between your wife and their support team from the video you posted.

A few comments:

A ticket shouldn't be market as solved if the person who opened it didn't confirm that the issue was handled. But I have seen crypto exchanges do that as well. They reply to you and if you don't respond back in 24 hours, for example, they close the ticket and mark it as solved.

You can't be the person holding your wife's ID for the verification of HER account. She has to be the one holding it. They have to make sure that the person on the ID is the same person holding the card. It's only logical that the verification will fail if you do it. Her being pregnant isn't an issue or an excuse. She doesn't have to run a marathon, she needs to stand or sit holding her ID card close to her face. That's it.

I can't comment on the accusation that she has traded on Localbitcoins before. Maybe she had a different account. Is that her first Localbitcoins account? If she is accessing the account from her University and maybe a shared IP, other students could have used Localbitcoins in the past. They could have used the service to scam other users. That could have triggered red alarms in their system when they noticed matching or similar IPs.
5194  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: I need your suggestions, Project:Coin Crypto Price on: June 03, 2022, 07:22:06 AM
There is nothing wrong with it and great of you to try it out. But ask yourself, why would users switch to my site instead of using CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko or any of the other alternatives? You need to figure something out that will make them stay and use your site as source of pricing information.

A couple of suggestions:

  • Please add a darker background or at least a day/night switch.
  • I wanted to suggest a price calculator, but noticed there is one when you click on any of the coins + a link at the bottom of the page. I think all links should be visible on the top, not at the bottom of the page. The bottom could be used for TOS, Contact info, Privacy Policy, and that kind of thing.
  • The exchange tabs should contain links to the correct trading pairs on that exchange. That's not the case here. The links only take you to more info about said exchange.
  • Prices are updated in real time on the main page, but when I access Bitcoin's page, for example, it always shows $30,268.00. This number doesn't change and I have tried if a few times. Refreshing does nothing to it either.
  • Consider creating a logo that will be visible at the top.
5195  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How many confirmations required for btc received to be safe from double spend? on: June 03, 2022, 06:58:44 AM
If there is no double spend, most likely a transaction will get included in both competing blocks so when one block is orphaned then another block would still have your confirmation.
That's quite possible, yes. If both mempools had a record of that transaction, both could have included them in their own blocks. It would really be interesting to see some statistics on stale blocks regarding how many of the same transactions get included in competing blocks and remain valid and confirmed once one block gets orphaned and how many become unconfirmed and return to the mempool. I am not sure if that is possible though. I am not talking about the overall count of orphaned blocks but the status of their transactions compared to those that got mined in a competing block. 
5196  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Core Node Windows- Need some help with Tor on: June 02, 2022, 07:38:02 PM
I am certainly not an expert in this department but remembered seeing a similar thread in the past about missing incoming peers.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5309923.0;all

When version 0.21.0 came out, it appears that there were incompatibility issues between TOR v2 and v3 addresses. Plenty of time has passed in the meantime, but it could be that nodes with older software versions are trying to connect to your TOR node and they can't because they don't recognize the v3 addresses.

Good move by Onehash - does it help winning people trust too when they would be starting  a new venture?
Good move by warning their players and casino users that they are shutting down? I think that's a normal thing to do and proper way to inform the community. A legit service will keep its userbase informed about what is going on, no matter if that information is positive or negative. Other casinos who have suffered the same fate and closed shop have done similar things. 
5198  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Computer Scientists say Crypto Industry is Misleading??? on: June 02, 2022, 12:06:57 PM
They are talking about crypto in general and unfortunately that also includes Bitcoin. But their conclusions don't apply to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is secure, it is decentralized, and the system that gives access rights to anyone who has the signing keys is as secure as the person storing those keys. The majority of the cryptocurrencies are indeed flawed and unproven or just scams. Again, take Bitcoin out of the equation. If someone doesn't understand what they are investing in, they shouldn't invest in it. The same rules apply to all other financial markets and assets.

Why trust bankers and speculators, really? Maybe because they are responsible for all the biggest financial crises we know of.

I also find it funny how a high positioned employee of Google Cloud doesn't like alternative platforms. Life would be so much easier for them if everyone just stored all their data in their Google Clouds for easy monitoring, leaking, and privacy infringement all in the name of national security, fighting terrorism, and money laundering.   
5199  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What approach do you expect from the Government if your Country adopt bitcoin? on: June 02, 2022, 11:35:29 AM
The biggest problem of bitcoin, if we can call it this way, is that there is no reimbursement, no protection, so the government should really find a way to teach people how to properly use it, that's in my opinion would be the biggest challenge.
I don't see why the government has to be the one that teaches you anything. The most that I expect is that they don't stay in the way and try to hinder the evolution of technology or attempt to limit my choices. If they can do that, it's enough. Information about Bitcoin and crypto is free, you just have to look for it. This forum is a university and a historical reference. So much has happened on these boards. Newer generations might prefer videos and YouTube and you can find plenty of quality content there as well. Andreas Antonopoulos is one of the go-to guys, but there are others.
5200  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 4.45 million bitcoin untouched for 5yrs,do BTC community can retrieve in future? on: June 02, 2022, 10:39:31 AM
No one has the right to interfere into how other people are spending, storing, or using their Bitcoin. Bitcoin is censorship-resistant and immutable. If you change that principle, you no longer have Bitcoin. You have an altcoin where a centralized group decided to change year-long rules.

Each Bitcoin holder decides for himself. I can keep my coins on the same address forever without moving them if I want to, without fear that someone might attempt to steal them for whatever reason.
