I just need to mention that there's a short notice on electrum.org download page stating: Warning: Some malicious servers have started a phishing attack against Electrum users. When asked to broadcast a transaction, malicious servers reply with an error message, directing users to download a fake version of Electrum. DO NOT download Electrum from another site than electrum.org. More information hereAnd from the Important Announcement Board since the very first hour of the incident: If you click the link in the message and install the software, then your BTC will be stolen. If you ignore the message, then you should be OK. -snip- With those ( together with the fact that it is an open-source project), we can assume that any incidents involving that particular hack can't be blamed to Electrum's developers.
-snip- OPERATION FOR ALL THE FUNNIES WHICH WERE IN THE ACCOUNT! 21.9667747 BTC !!!
You can always turn to the authorities ( Police) and report the incident, same as this guy who had his Electrum-stored Bitcoins ( and Altcoins) stolen. The chance to retrieve your coins might be slim but it's better than chasing your tail.

These so called "Hacks" were suspiciously smelling like a scapegoat for scammers nowadays.
Just look at it; say, if you declare that your exchange got hacked, users may be neutral or patient to retrieve their funds. While there must be few who will surely get impatient, in the end, there will be small to medium amount of funds that will be neglected or will expire past the deadline/closing.
Not saying that this was the case here, just a (strong) hunch towards these recent hacking-incidents-mania.

- snip- Does anyone have any recommendations of good bots or trading methods for a noobie. Although not recommended, you can use new Exchange with DEMO trading. Using that feature, you'll get fake balance for every available coin upon registration. What's the difference with a bot? You'll be trading with real people and real-time prices, there's only one problem: there might be no liquidity at all. It's up to you to find one since I'm not going to endorse any new exchange here ( I'm sure that there are exchanges with DEMO). Or you can pick low-value coin to easy access pairs like DOGE-BTC and focus on that pair for the time being. If you somewhat " got the hung of it" and gain confidence, you can now explore more pairs to experiment with. Just take it slow, one step at a time.

Are you sure that you've restored it as a multisig wallet? Example: If it is a multisig address, Electrum's title bar should display " [2/3],[3/3],[2/2]" depending on the number of required signatures and cosigners. If " standard" or " imported" it's not multisig. Because, in my understanding, you only have one SEED and copay have the rest, you only got the the xpub of copay's SEEDs for view-only purposes
< Edit If you happen to have all the SEEDs> when i put the xpub i can see the funds but i cant sign because generate only watch only funds.
This will happen when you choose " Use Master Key" and pasted just the xpub of the three cosigners. What you need to do is to make Two( 2) Electrum Wallets hodling each of the two seeds to be able to (2/3) sign a transaction. It needs to be exactly 3 Cosigner and 2 Required Signature, changing the wallet's cosigner settings will generate a different set of address ( I've tried it just now).

There's a noticeable trade-off in the site's design: One page alone ( the very 1st page which should be introduced to newcomers) is surprisingly filled with compact & stupendous amount of contents that compromised the " smoothness" of the interface. This could be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on your target readers community. Accurately speaking, the homepage looks " cool" but cramped/crowded since almost all widgets and elements were already loaded simultaneously. This might also be a problem with users with limited internet speed, low RAM or low/mid-end mobile/computers and will surely limit your prospective regular readers specially from some ASIAN countries ( 90% low/mid-end devices @ <5mbps download speed) which are one of the most internet-active community. Lastly, I tried to check for errors and the result was alarmingly high ( 89 errors and counting....). Some are caused by my AV's AdBlocker and other filters but most are errors from the " widgets" and I wont allot more time to sift through all the errors. Regards.

Probably best if you can provide more information about this " randomly generated" address like: - From where or what kind wallet is it from.
- What method did you used to make it.
By looking at blockexplorers, it seemed like that your address 1ZYCAZDis1rAZpgttUh3ViQcpJokraH3F have been used already a few times since 2017. Hello I have to receive important funds -snip-
Luckily, there's no incoming funds to that address as of now. Just create a new wallet and inform your transaction/deal partner to change your address right away!

Do you mean, " Heat Sink Fan" and " Heat Sink"? Usually, it's just abbreviated as HSF. " cooler master EVO? thermaltake?" - those are brand names of the high-end PC-parts manufacturers. Can I use or adapt for a PC with CPU FX6300 AM3+? Has anyone tried it? The stock HSF definitely wont fit, but.. Those branded HSF have a " universal mounts" to fit in any CPU socket, but in most cases, only one type can fit in the designated Motherboard Types ( Depending on the CPU Socket). However, the mounting holes might not match the dimensions of that ASIC's board; the height of the Heat Sink can also be an issue, the gap between the metal plate of the HS and the Processor should be a few micrometers ( to be filled by thermal paste) to be efficient. Just order a new replacement of those crap...... ( lol) " original" fans.

BTC Binance.com BTC Kraken.com
If this was accurate, you can contact these Exchanges ( not customer service) for their cooperation. Kraken may be impossible but Binance might answer you. An Email containing complete info on your ownership of the addresses' funds, Some personal info and/or Clearance together with a detailed explanation of your statement. Why? Given that you have the Full Proof of ownership and you can proove that you're not the one who moved the funds, Exchanges like Binance requires KYC policy to their users and they have the power to point you to any leads to the Culprit. This can get you to a real person which can be questioned for more leads. And even if it was withdrawn to a " Mixing" address ( unless they tolerate crimes), you can also contact the service provider to provide the final address where the funds ( 2btc from Binance?) are being held. But it's been quite long since the hacking incident, I can only assume that it was already laundered as " investments" to micro-earning sites or loans.

Before trying to start over again with these painstaking procedures, can you tell us what mobile wallet was it and if you have a backup of the SEED of your wallet? Because mostly all mobile wallets are HD like Electrum and can be restored using the SEED Phrase ( 8, 12 or more set of words). If you have it, simply reinstall the wallet and select the appropriate options for restoring wallet via SEED.
According to the image, it seems that you recovered the system files and some of the files you recovered are the file inside the bootloader(a firmware where you can use to reflash the phone using Odin) like the sbl1.mbn and sbl2.mbn. It looks like the procedure you are following is the procedure on how to back up the program?
AFAIK, if he successfully backed-up or restored the full image of the bootloader and the System Files: ROM ( as they call it), he can use it to fully restore the Data directory since the " Internal SD card" was included in it ( ROM). But by looking at the left side of the image, it seems like there were problems in the process.

I was a bit shocked about the result on that image. Is that really a legit info? If it is then how is it possible that japan has one of the lowest trades? -snip- Is it because that their government doesnt support digitalization of currencies?
It clearly states that the data was based on Local Bitcoins which was first introduced to the top countries, later to the rest. Japan however, rarely uses Local Bitcoins to trade just like other Asian country ( except China that has a huge population), trades in Exchange and Payment Processor internal trades are different story however. Other possible reasons are: [1] there have been a more store/establishment-accepted digital coin in circulation ( Monac***) in the country and Bitcoin is just one of their options. [2] Yen costs a lot less than other Asian Counties and a way less in comparison to Dollars or Euro; to compete with trades done by other local fiat currencies, each Japanese LocalBitcoins user should spend more Yen to match the spent $ of just one American State. [3] Most of them ( including rest of Asia) are using Third-party wallet to send and Exchange to trade. etc.

Crap - I don't see a way to move the post This board is quite fine as long as it's Altcoin Mining-related. Scroll-down to the bottom of this page, look at the left corner and there should be a " move topic | lock topic" buttons there. -snip-, but still have only stuck with coins I felt had a good concept.
If you're also into trading, it doesn't matter if the coin has sick or stupid concept as long as it's not an obvious straight scam, you can grab/mine it as long as your rig(s) have good compatibility to its algorithm. The trick is to " join the hype before it build up" then sell at the right time like most traders do. But if sites like whattomine suggests you that it's not recommended to mine the particular coin using your specs, it would probably be best to buy the the ( cheap) coins than trying to mine them at low efficiency. There are few exceptions, like if the coin has just released and the difficulty is still pretty low.

The auto-generated list was good with some exceptions: Posts that contain a bitcoin address( es) like this were also included. That said, please exclude this in the list ( from the link above): nc50lc --- 1Bmtpmi8GuQqVroAR3DPMoWR13qYTwYDxA

In my observation, I think that there was a misunderstanding here. From the original thread, It seems like that the " very rich guys from Serbia" quote is based from the other party's depiction of the card manufacturers who insisted on not giving a refund. And his statement: " can find you and make......" was his response to the question with same meaning: " Why don't you report it yourself, can't show your face to the public?" making the quoted part not pertaining to himself. Thus, it isn't a threat. Disclaimer: That's what I saw after shortly reading the text battle, I could be wrong.

I'm not worried about the hash rate and small % that miner can take. I'm afraid of key loggers that can help hackers to steal all you have in wallets, exchanges...
I'm pretty sure that any clever miners wont use his mining rigs as a ( spendable) wallet. If there's a real threat, it will be his privacy. unless if there's something in the code/file.

Is it a good idea to buy some bitcoin now? To the community: This question isn't something that you can ask away. It's in the hands of every single ( small) participants like you but apparently, most can't be influenced directly by the few, they need media to do it. So how can we find the answers?: watch the media, not to be influenced but to observe and analyze what they intended to do or their true goal. The simplest rephrasing has been said over and over: " it's very difficult to predict", but that depends on the person. The grand answer that everybody wants to hear is " yes or no" but in reality, the price of a Decentralized coin which has been tied to a Centralized body will follow the same fate of any HYPEd market ( Gartner Hype Cycle). Bitcoin already reached the peak, we're now on the deciding factor whether this technology or just the coin itself will be useful enough to the eyes of the public. -snip- What I will say is t be careful where you chose to exchange. I can recommend -snip-, they're new but they're the best I've seen out there. They're the safest and most professional on the market.
You're claiming that they are the " safest and professional" but... Honestly, I never heard of that exchange before. @ OP Since this guy suggested to be careful on choosing exchange, I'd suggest you to be careful on shameless indirect advertisements by newbies which can be potential scams or phishing sites. Read their individual post history to be able to tell yourself if the user is legit or not.

Depending on your previous response, it looks like the only one left unchecked is the Operating System if all of your rigs uses the same. Must be ( still) a problem with Windows Update, it can still find a way to self-enable depending on your OS's version ( especially Windows10). Unfortunately, I can't help you with it since I'm not using W10 due to the same issue. And...Today all my rigs with claymore dual miner crushed.
It was beyond repair

Name any difficulties in platform getting started or navigation process, if any? Honestly, nothing. Just few intrusive " help" dialogue boxes. But on the second visit, it's gone. So I assume that's it's only for the first visit, good job. Just add " Newbie" or " Pro" in the registration page to automatically prompt-out the user to help pages and dialogue boxes. What features you would be using day-to-day and why? Texturing the Night Mode with not-totally solid black/colored background in order to ( or just) Make the Borders more visible ( during night mode). Under trading, everything is fitted inside the screen just like other major exchanges, nothing to said against it except for PCs with small monitors. What is missing to become a 10/10 cryptocurrency platform? (In your opinion) Just this one: Highlight the " Average" from the order book. I'm getting errors ( 6/8) using GoogleChrome's inspect function, but I can't tell which is which. Overall, it looks quite simple and professional.

thank you, is there any way to get into profit using crypto.
Currently, the only thing you can do is to be good at Day Trading. It takes a lot of time and effort to be considered as a " Pro", and you'll likely lose more coins/assets as you practice. Mining isn't the best choice. Disregarding the Electric Bill, the only profitable hardware are the latest ASICs for mining Bitcoins but their prices can't justify the expected returns based on the current price and total network Hashrate. Only those who've already got them are the ones who have been on mining ( at loss). Investing in ICOs are risky, however, you might find a way to profit from the Tokens/AltCoins if you're good at trading. Most of them are scam to start with ( about 90% of them) but some of those can be traded for useful coins afterwards. But still, too risky. Honestly you can't profit at all, just mind your current business/job, keep your portfolio safe and ( keep updated with the latest news) wait for price increase.

All the mentionned coins are not minable. Just check on coinmarketcap...
Tron ( TRX) isn't mineable but you can receive more by their POR algo or something... ( I may be wrong) XRP, previously Ripple ( XRP) isn't mineable. VeChain ( VET) isn't currently mineable Zilliqa ( ZIL) isn't mineable and it's an ERC Token.
But the bottom line is: It is not wise to mine any coin if you didn't already have the proper hardware, especially at the moment. Some coins can be " rewarded" through their unique Proof of Work alternatives like Tron but still, they still require hardware like Huge disk drives or huge RAM. Either way, you will be spending more than the amount that will/would return to you. If you're hoping for a price boost, buying more is still the better choice.
