The standard length of the Ledger Nano S / S+ / X cable has always been less than 1m. The following sizes are indicated on the official website: 71 mm x 86 mm x 25 mm.
I think the one I have is pretty close to 1m if you stretch it out completely. I doubt you will get something of that length today regardless of which company you buy from. These were the types of cables they sent back in 2017/2018.

Considering that it's impossible to find a replacement screen for the Nano X
Why? There aren't any on the market or do we not know the exact model?

...the only option would be to ask for a replacement unit [if it's still under warranty].
Even if it's not under warranty, they might be willing to send a replacement device for problems like the one LTU_btc is experiencing. But he should be ready to go through a troubleshooting process before that. They are going to ask him for video/image proof of every step of the process as proof that the wallet isn't working.

Haven't you received PM from the same person who had sent me PM? We are dealing with a lot of newbies here if RioVIP or Magalon isn't the person who approached you through PM. Unfortunately, none of them provided any evidences here until now.
Whoever the person is that contacted me, they didn't want to post about it in public. I hope you understand when I say I am not going to reveal their name in public either. I will leave it up to them to post about it publicly if they feel they should or if it's time. I was also approached by a highly trusted legendary-rank user who confirmed the story about Chips.gg and their owner soon after that. Now, it's a waiting game.

I think this is enough. Pmalek, do you have further question regarding PF?
This is not something I can verify on my end since I haven't played any games, and so can't verify the nature of past rounds. Someone who has played Blackjack.Fun's provably fair games can do that. It's positive that the information is there, at least.

Eva, do you have problems with your eyesight?

A few questions and comments on the bugs that JackpotRacer found.
What can you tell us about the timer reset bug? Are you working on it, has it been fixed, do you not want to fix it?
JackpotRacer does not have a case, but he did find several bugs. You fixed some, but the timer reset seems to be a major one that directly influences the outcome of a round. If that is true, you shouldn't be hosting real-money games until that is fixed.

I think they used to send regular length cable with Nano S and now sending short cables with all Nano X.
My PC is located under my table, so Nano X cable is way too short to use it convenient. Regular 1 m. cable would be enough for me.
In that case, you are out of luck. I use a laptop, so even the short Trezor one I took a picture of above is OK for me. In your case, you would have to be on your knees holding the device in your hands while looking up from below your table when trying to compare and verify transaction data.

Go to a local PC or mobile store in your city and get a long data cable that is long enough for your needs. Alternatively, use the Bluetooth feature of your Nano X.

I like the small format but I think those navigation/function buttons can be a pain in the ass when typing anything.
That's another reason to create a SeedQR code and use that every time you need to recover your wallet or create fresh PSBTs. If the navigation keys are of low quality, it's better to use the camera. That way you are sparing the buttons, to not wear them out as quickly.

Quote
When users are ready to unlock Jade, they will be prompted to enter their PIN. The companion app (e.g. Green) will then establish an encrypted channel with the blind oracle, allowing for the server secret to be sent to Jade - thus decrypting Jade's secret and allowing you to spend bitcoin.

In other words, if the server that validates your PIN is down, you can't unlock your device and spend your funds. If that scenario happens, the only way that you will be able to spend your funds is by importing your seed into another device.
The way I understood it is that the use of the PIN, and therefore also the virtual secure element, is optional. You can choose not to use it. And if it stops working, you can recover your coins with the recovery phrase or a SeedQR (if you created the latter).

Hi, I understand correctly that you're the one PMing Pmalek a little while ago?
No, this isn't the person I have been in contact with via PMs. It looks to me like RioVIP was an old player who later got promoted to some staff position. Mookis123 mentioned there was an additional player who was scammed by the casino and that she would tell them to post here. Maybe RioVIP is that player.

If you think about it, it's been 48 months since theymos said no. The fact that we still don't have a moderator up to this point means the request wasn't granted. My Magic 8 Ball tells me we aren't going to get one now unless we bully theymos into promoting someone.

Does anyone else have a hardware wallet they would like to show the community at Bitcointalk? Let's try to revive this thread a little. Grin
I am particularly interested in seeing images of some genuine DYI devices. I know that some users here have those, so don't be shy and let's see them.
689  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Nano X Circus (Battery, Recover and more) on: February 22, 2024, 05:18:01 PM
And one minor thing - their original USB cable is so short that makes use of wallet very inconvenient.
Maybe the cable that is standard for the Nano X is shorter than the one for the S model. Perhaps they have different cables and you were simply unlucky enough to get the shorter one. Still, how long do you need it to be? Its only purpose is to connect your hardware wallet to a laptop or computer. It doesn't need to be long.

When I compare my Nano S cable to the one I got when I bought my Trezor One, it's like 4 times longer. But I am satisfied with both.

There are some really out there attacks that cannot be mitigated such as this one: https://blog.coinkite.com/laser-fault-injection/
All fault injection attacks require physical access to the hardware wallet. If someone gets their hands on your HW device, you should move your coins from it regardless of what model you own. I wouldn't be comfortable with someone, who perhaps knows what they are doing, playing around with my wallet and trying to break into it even if I had the world's safest one.

This particular attack is only possible on multisig wallets. If you are using a standard singlesig wallet, you aren't affected.

Realistic price should be much higher than now, and most shitcoins should have lower or no value at all.
Imagine that solana crap is ranked so high and they literally had more downtime than old dial-up internet connections  Roll Eyes
All true, but it doesn't mean a thing for the price. Not being available on major exchanges and therefore not being available to the many users of such platforms affects the value negatively. Hype and marketing are more important than usability from a price perspective. That's just the reality of the world we live in.

Our in-house Blackjack game is provably fair, developed by the Blackjack.fun team. This is a game what started the whole Blackjack.fun platform back in the day.
How can I verify that if I wanted to? Are there step-by-step instructions on the website that explain the process of verifying each round of your in-house blackjack game?
Can you please answer the questions I asked in my previous post about the bugs that JackpotRacer found?

693  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor Suite now supports coin control on: February 22, 2024, 04:32:43 PM
Based on the content of their "February update" post, apparently, it'd try to detect and label them to prevent users from copying those addresses [not sure if it'd allow us to remove faulty tags or not].
When the address poisoning scam became known, Tronscan added two options on their website. The first was to hide small incoming transactions from appearing in the transaction history. It affected all transactions valued $0.5 and lower. The second option made risky transactions with unknown tokens hidden from the history overview. Both features do a good job from hiding poisoning scams from even appearing before the eyes of a user.

Apparently, Trezor has taken another route where they wont have them disappear. Instead they will be marked as potentially dangerous.

As a one-man team? Running a successful betting operation is much harder than many people think. It's certainly not something one person should attempt to do as a hobby. You need qualified staff to help you run all parts of the business. A security department to oversee the money and protect the site from outside forces; support personnel to handle client inquiries, a legal department for licenses, regulatory work; developers to help the site and the games run efficiently, and take care of all errors and bugs that will appear, etc. 
696  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Setting up Blockstream Jade on: February 21, 2024, 05:00:24 PM
Well the seedsigner is fantastic but I wasn't able to find an RPi Zero (the one without the WiFi adapter).
I see. I take it that you bought it as non assembled and assembled the parts yourself. Otherwise, you could have purchased the assembled unit with the correct Pi Zero v1.3 from BTC Hardware Solutions. The Jade supports Bluetooth, though, while the Seedsigner doesn't.

Technically, a major difference is that the seedsigner doesn't generate entropy. So you must enter your own entropy by flipping coins or throwing dice.
They do have an option to generate entropy from a picture you take with the device's camera. I can't comment on the technical part of it, though or how secure such seeds are. I hope the Jade has been put under severe tests to verify that the generated entropy from the device is strong enough. It's not exactly the most popular HW (which is also true for the Seedsigner) and surely doesn't generate as much interest as the major brands.

You forgot to mention the battery. How do you like its performance?
697  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor Suite now supports coin control on: February 21, 2024, 04:42:51 PM
Activity tab was not working correctly for me in new version, and it didn't show any transaction notifications like before, but maybe they fixed that in v24.2.2.
That's why I always like to wait with new updates unless it's something major that fixes serious vulnerabilities. And that's not the case with the new Trezor Suite whose biggest change is in the UI. Bugs and errors are expected.

Address poisoning attack prevention was also introduced for improved security.
Not sure how they want to battle that. You can't prevent someone to send crypto to an address, and when they do, that transaction will be displayed in the transaction history. Perhaps there will be an on switch to hide zero value transactions and possibly fraudulent ones or display a warning of a possible poisoning scam if a similar address is noticed or if the second transaction occurred seconds after your own legitimate transaction. Poisoning scams usually appear seconds after you make or receive a normal transaction.

<Snip>
It seems like an interesting device, especially for its airgapped nature and affordable price. I might consider buying one. How long have you had it, and how satisfied are you with the battery performance? Since you mentioned Seedsigner, what made you buy the Jade and not the Seedsigner, for example? They are quite similar in several ways. The SeedQR is an invention by the developers of Seedsigner, unless I am mistaken.

Have you discovered any major cons or do you regret buying the Jade?
699  Economy / Exchanges / Re: eXch - instant exchange BTC / LN / XMR / LTC / ETH / ERC20 on: February 21, 2024, 04:23:43 PM
What intrigues me about this, is that XMR performance is very poor compared to other cryptocurrency. It used to top in top 10 coins (in marketcap) just 5 years ago, and it is nearly 50th now (46th in time of writing). This means losing much of its valuale compared to BTC.

Something is not right. XMR price is not showing this scarcity. Maybe XMR price will be adjusted in the future?
Monero has been battered lately after Binance announced that it would soon delist it from their platform. That caused a big downward trend for the value of the coin. Binance is just the latest big exchange that has turned its back on Monero, many others before it did. Privacy coins are constantly under attack by regulators and governments that see them as a bigger threat than stablecoins. Whatever bitcoin is going through, in terms of being called a haven for scammers and thieves, monero is subjected to double of that. All of that has affected the price and overall interest for the coin.
700  Economy / Exchanges / Re: eXch - instant exchange BTC / LN / XMR / LTC / ETH / ERC20 on: February 20, 2024, 05:17:42 PM
Nope the reserves of XMR are accurate, but indeed XMR is often empty. But it is for sure not a secret and well displayed.
Every time I visited the exchange website in the last couple of days, XMR was always at 0. But you are right. It was showing a little bit above 121 when I saw your quote. A few minutes later and it's back to 0 again. There is great demand for no-KYC monero.
