Is this recommended to be done on a different computer? I read that claiming bitcoin cash, you should use another computer. I assume using this on the same computer as bitcoin cash would be fine? What about doing this on same computer as you keeping btc on the same computer with electrum?
You can use same computer, that's fine.

Sell BTG for what?
BTC close to the top, ETH a completely overvalued useless token, DASH a marketing machine with no tech, LTC aka leechBTC coin. ....
How about fiat? I'm not going to comment second part of your post.

Cold wallet (or cold storage) is term for any wallet that never came online (it can be paper wallet, wallet installed on an old PC, old cellphone ...)
Ah ok, so its basically old school devices not attached to the web. A USB what be the same thing right ? Yea. You can create a wallet (with e.g. electrum) write down few public keys (so you can share them to receive funds), put the wallet file onto USB and you have your own cold storage (assuming you did all this offline) the above is just example, there are better ways how to do it.

Hi, One of our Reader sent us the following screenshot about HI-LO game. Can someone explain what the heck? The marked HI bets apparently were loosing bets while the roll was higher than 5250. https://i.imgur.com/dyiwlbF.jpgIf you enter payout 3.33 ( as your user) then he has to roll higher than 7147 or lower than 2853 to win. Everthing is fine. Hi Bitfort thanks a lot for the clarification! And sorry from all for the false alarm. Yea, NP. Similar things happens. I'm just glad you asked ( and not went straight to abusive languange full of F.words ... like lot of people do).

Which wallet it's best?
It's matter of opinion. Depends on what are you looking for. Security? Ease to use? Versatility? For me it's ledger (because I have it). It's secure, easy to use, and pretty versatile ... all i need.

I can't signed a message now to my old address staked here last 2015 as the exchange provider disable the option for signing. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.1750 I can still used that address but decided to stake another one (desktop wallet) for long term purposes. -----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE----- chaser15 of bitcointalk.org and want to stake my address 1D121EmHJh2NbESupttApSJCSJP3sZHXEj . November 26,2017. -----BEGIN SIGNATURE----- 1D121EmHJh2NbESupttApSJCSJP3sZHXEj HzpdzedcOE7ZmPyCFFO2t7+wWItHUoBDW3oAtVOg8b9KecWZEQeVeFWEUQ2rBNBD+/EkxWQlBoVYjBtRF+IDWm0= -----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE----- Just wanted to say that was pretty amateurish signing with address you have no direct controll of private key (as you can imagine it would be useless now). Good for you staking new one ( desktop one) BTW, signature valid (verified).

Just wanted to warn you. Buying cheaper could be more risky for you.
Try localbitcoins.com ... it's not the cheapest but you might be lucky and find seller with reasonable price Pretty convenient way is using coinbase

Hey all, lets play a game. I'm sure lot of you is aware of multiple scam wallets appeared after BTG fork. Let's predict scam domains about BCD fork (as I'm sure this is going to repeat). I have at least 20 possible favorites but lets everybody state max 5 domains and quote the person above. There is no prize for winners. People whose tips comes true gets only my admiration.
EDIT: Let's make it wider and predict also SBTC (superbitcoin) and BTCS (bitcoin silver)
My tips (i don't think scammers are going to invest much so I'm choosing the cheapes domains)
BCD (bitcoin diamond) - posted 26-11-2017
bcdwallet.online (already occupied, most probably scam indeed ) bcdwallet.club (available) bcd-electrum.online (available) bcd-electrum.club (available) blockchain-diamond.info (available)
SBTC (super bitcoin) - posted 27-11-2017
sbtcwallet.online (available) sbtcwallet.club (available) sbtc-electrum.online (available) sbtc-electrum.club (available) blockchain-superbitcoin.info (available)

btcswallet.online (available) btcswallet.club (available) btcs-electrum.online (available) btcs-electrum.club (available) blockchain-silver.info (available)
Share your tips.
EDIT: sorry I screwed it, thought BTD is the abbr for bitcoin diamond, I reworked my tips and rechecked the domain availability

I heard the hardware wallet Ledger nano does support BTG. So if I buy a ledger nano would I be able to claim my BTG on there?
No. You would only be able to store BTG there. But not claim your BTG from your old wallet because there is no import option in Ledger Nano S. You would need to import your private key in a BTG compatible wallet and then send your Bitcoin Gold to your Ledger Nano S wallet. You can see which wallets suport BTG in their website: https://bitcoingold.org/Not entirely true. You can use sweep function instead (this function is not available in native ledger app, but when you are using ledger with electrum this option is possible). @OP You have been provided with instructions already. But if something is not clear, you can check my thread about BTG https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2347158.0 Is there a way to claim BTG on ht tps://btgwallet.online/
My quick advice. Stay away. Better to use well established wallets ... too many scams around and this domain seems fishy to me ... one of the cheapest possible domains (if not free). Would you trust such service?

Exactly. User need to check whether he's sending to correct address and correct amount and if the fee is appropriate ( some wallets have auto fee function but I preffer adjusting it according current network load)
Great, it clears up so much for me. I might write an article about it. One more thing, are you talking about that it handle "change" address by itself? Yes, you don't need to care ( but i should have to tell you need to use deterministic wallets ... most of them are, I just mention this to be sure). Let em give you my opinion about paper wallets as I find them not so much useful. It's unhandy and overrated IMO. Now you know why unhandy. Why overrated? Because most users refers to them as super secure which I don't think so. 1- it's usually piece of paper. Easy to get lost, possible the text is going to fade ( if not stored properly), easy to destroy ( spilt something on it ).... 2 - once you want to spend funds from it you need to use the private key. Which opens possibilities for security issues (most users will use QR code and as you surely know most apps on cellphone have access to camera ... thus possible leak ... if not QR code then you'll be handwriting it ... again possible keyloger or w/e malware ... to eliminate these "security issues" you would have to use brand new, never online device, pay special attention installing wallet from non compromised source using brand new or well formated USB ... etc etc. ) one way the other you have to use another software for either transaction signing or import/sweep (unless you are coder and have own script for signing transactions) ... so why not to use it from very begining? If there is no change, then no change address is need ... again, you don't need to care of it.

Yes. All wallets do this automatically (in some you can specify to use more change addresses for every transaction or not to use change addy at all).
Aha so basically it creates new address and generates private key and everything and sends the change to that address? The only thing user has to do is basically confirm transaction? Exactly. User need to check whether he's sending to correct address and correct amount and if the fee is appropriate ( some wallets have auto fee function but I preffer adjusting it according current network load)

I get it, but how Ledger Nano S handles that address changes
There is no problem with change address if you know what you are doing. Thats why I wrote it's too complicated (not impossible) and I don't think ordinary user want to deal with it. (you would need to specify the change address in transaction ... FYI there is also option to return change to sending address.) Hardware wallet does it automatically? Yes. All wallets do this automatically (in some you can specify to use more change addresses for every transaction or not to use change addy at all).

Paper wallets are mostly "one-use only". You can receive funds multipletimes no problem with that but once you want to spend money from it you need to sweep/import private key to other wallet ( then you should not use this wallet anymore because prv. key has been compromised).
Alternative option is to sign the tx offline and push this signed transaction (then your private key is safe and you can safely reuse the wallet ... BTW this is how Hardware wallets works ) but I consider this way too complicated.

Just be very careful when it comes to investing sir some of the sites were scam.. I would rather suggest that you'd take ur investment in coins trading that is legit and patronized by other people.. Thank you.
Choose well reputed casinos, those that are already here longer. Also, don't expect too much, a fake/scam gambling site(if there is any, I don't see one yet) would be offering bigger ROI compared to those regular casinos. In my opinion it is worth it to invest at those casinos, it is like you are still gambling but with lesser to no effort and just waiting. I don't think any casino bankroll investments will give any ROI because there is no guaranty that whether you make profit or loss from this investment. It may take few days or few months or year to reach your targetted profit in these casino investments. If more and more gamblers lose money then your profit % will go high but if gamblers win then you lose so this also depends on your luck and profit-making chances are high compared to gambling. I don't agree with you. If the casino operator has intelligently managed the investment bankroll (i.e. not making max bet too high), there is ZERO chance, over the long term that you're going to lose money, barring other external risks such as the owner being dishonest, or the game not actually being provably fair (e.g. due to a hack). The house edge will always ensure over the long term, investors make money. Agree, there can be some lucky winners reducing the bankroll in short time frames ( like yolodice at the moment ) but as long as there is sufficient bankroll management (as mentioned in your post) it's not a big issue for long term investors.
