681  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum doesn't import addresses labels on: August 21, 2016, 02:31:41 PM
I use Electrum on Windows 7 and i have assigned some labels to addresses under the 'Addresses' tab. I decided to import a wallet from my Electrum on Windows 7 to Electrum on Tails. I imported the seed for the wallet but the labels for the addresses are not showing up in the Electrum on Tails.

edit: Nevermind, i didn't see the option to export labels. 

(Emphasis is mine.)

Even though the problem was solved, let me tell you more about the seed. The seed is simply the root of every keypair in your wallet. All the private keys and public keys can be derived from it. This excludes labels and imported addresses, because they cannot be derived from the seed. (They were externally added by you, after the generation of the wallet seed.)

You can use PHPs exec-function to call bitcoin-cli validateaddress. Or you can use JSON-RPC php library to do the same.
683  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Why it is said that bitcoin is centralized? on: August 21, 2016, 02:26:54 PM
People say bitcoin is centralized because a certain entity or group of people have control or more control than the majority of people in the community. The core devs basically have total control, as they are basically the only ones who can allow and add changes to the bitcoin protocol.

Start producing some code, make some ideas, make them into a BIP. You'll notice suddenly people will weigh in your opinion too.

You can try changing Bitcoin, but please do it via the BIP method. I've not heard that BIP process isn't proper. And it seems to be quite well working, so far. It can be updated too, of course. There are some (slightly trollish) groups who intend to bypass BIP process, because they think it's centralization. (Which it kind of is, but so is Bitcointalk, Reddit, GitHub, Intel, AMD, ISPs, governments and whatnot.) After all BIP system is not tied to any people or any platform. So it really is decentralized, even though you can't alone choose/change how it works.

Do you know who are the "Core devs"? They're developers who commit something to Core. Simple. Not a closed project, not a closed group. Open for all developers. You can have the "total control" you claim they have. But nobody listens to you (or in other words nobody considers you as a core dev) until you've proven you're a core dev.

689  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [ESHOP launched] Trezor: Bitcoin hardware wallet on: August 05, 2016, 07:49:46 PM
If I own 2 Trezor devices, would it be possible to connect the new Trezor device to offline PC, type in the 24 word seed & this way have 2 Trezor devices that have exactly same wallets stored in them?

I'm confident that my PC does not have keylogger, however for extra safety it would be cool to be able to move the seed to a 2nd Trezor from Offline PC, if this is possible how would it be done?

Can I access the Trezor website in offline mode?

1. If this is possible I can test and make sure the Seed is working incase Trezor device breaks down.

2. Have a strong PIN and store the 2nd Trezor device on another location (lets say my home burns down and Trezor device nr1 and seed paper is lost). From my understanding todays technology it is pretty much impossible for regular thief to steal my coins if the PIN code is strong.

Same seed in both devices means they both use same wallet. If you use a passphrase, it also needs to be the same, as the password is "25th" word in the seed and therefore affects the generated wallet. Pin can be different, AFAIK.

I suggest backing up everything at these as 3 copies, 3 different locations and preferably formats.

not sure how you mean storing 3 copies in 3 different locations and differents formats?
do you mean location 1 has passphrase only?
location 2 has 24 word seed only?
location 3 has the Trezor device only?

So from reading Trezor manual my understanding is even if I get extremely unlucky and my PC has Keylogger it would take 3.5 years for someone with the hashing power of bitcoin to get the correct order of 24 word seed?
so for regular users this would mean 100+ years?

If this is true I should be able to move the seed while online from Trezor 1 to Trezor 2 confidently?

I think the only function of the passphrase is that I can openly have the other 24 words of the seed in my home, even if someone steals my 24 word seed they still can't get to my coins in wallet that are protected by the passphrase?

so If I make sure I have a long passphrase coins are safe as long as I don't forget the passphrase.

I mean that it's good to keep several copies of the same data at multiple physical locations. Trezor device itself is "nothing", only the words (=seed) are important.

Do not write the seed on an online computer, or actually ever on computer at all. The whole point of the hardware wallet is that the keys are only on the device and in the backup locations. When you type the seed on computer, it's technically shared with the computer (even if you didn't store it on the computer!). The computer may be compromised or may be compromised in the future. It may be shared via Internet or other ways.

the transaction did in fact come from TF

Do you have any proof for this? Several people (and even the Eater) received coins from this source.
Yes.

The address that is holding 1,000BTC, and that was giving away BTC to users is 1BfxSuxJqXuizBbTcP238JZY9DT4eqvzJG

The above address received 1,010 BTC via 641b11014a25e305aa075cfd9505435c697602890cc4fb76f27bc7ba95a61a76 from 1Hy1rceh2EaKnAQhGZocTFUGnKFFD3mNG5

The above address received a similar amount of BTC via 938e072318486566a9b8c301b9937052fc25f500ee4d0cea9f4dde07d9614b24 from 13tikBdmMVkyuykDVNmv3tTr8YkVN3Xrut

13tikBdmMVkyuykDVNmv3tTr8YkVN3Xrut is believed to belong to TradeFortress according to this post by malevolent in 2013. I am not 100% certain on his thought process, however a brief look at blockchain transactions around this time makes this seem reasonable.

If you were to believe malevolent, then either TF sent you BTC, or someone purchased ~$500,000 worth of BTC from TF just to giveaway. I would personally doubt the later is what happened.

OK. It certainly looks like there's a connection. Although, there are several beliefs. I am looking for evidence, and there's no room for beliefs there.

I was going to auction off a few more, but after that sales price I guess not.

Really?  I would think that getting more than double the face value is a pretty good sell.  Add to the tripling of price of bitcoin to fiat since the original minting, and to me, it looks like you did pretty well.

These coins sold for 3-3.5 BTC for a long time.
697  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Dogevisitor refused to pay for a ticket on: July 19, 2016, 02:03:19 PM
Hi guys!

Indeed I told Anduck that I would pay as soon as more spots are filled.
That week I was out of town and didn't have acces to my wallet, so I wasn't able to pay on time.

Seems my ticket wasn't invalidated, even if I didn't paid, and the raffle begun, forcing me to pay.
This didn't seemed fair to me...
Most of the raffle owners, invalidated someone's bid if he didn't paid on time.

Anyhow, I will pay 0.03 to Anduck just to solve this dispute, but still, this doesn't feel right for me.

Anduck: Please post here a payment address and will pay in max 24h.

Paid: https://blockchain.info/tx/4bccd26927b2ae566d0a54cac7f83a5330956531543df6a4cf8f9ea9e54b5248

I've not sent you a payment address. You sent money to someone else.
Did he send to the raffle address?

Thanks! Indeed, he sent to the raffle address.

I took the liberty to send to the raffle address, I hope that is not a problem.
Also I hope we can do better business in the future.

Not a problem. Thanks.

We didn't talk about any timeouts. Simply, we agreed that you pay for the ticket later. I don't see why the ticket should've been invalidated, since it was already bought by you (but waiting for payment, which we agreed you'll deal with later.)

Or in other words, it was clearly not a reservation or anything like that: it was a buy ("I'll take C") with delayed payment.
