You just want the hex part... Excluding the " characters.... But your transaction is farking HUGE nearly 60,000 bytes!!?! Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

You might struggle getting any of the transaction broadcast services to accept it... Undecided

6942  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Hardware wallets and ATM's on: December 16, 2017, 04:58:10 PM
Your choices, if Electrum are involved (and expense is a factor) are basically Ledger Nano S and Trezor One. Either one of those should fulfill your requirements. Both ship worldwide from their respective online stores (www.ledgerwallet.com and trezor.io) and are also on Amazon if I'm not mistaken. PROTIP: you can buy Amazon Gift Cards from places like eGifter.com using Bitcoins if Amazon don't accept Bitcoin directly Wink

as for mobile usage... best option is probably Mycelium on Android (I don't think Android Electrum works with hardware wallets). Not sure what the iOS options are. Huh
6943  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum How can I send coins I sweep into electrum wallet on: December 16, 2017, 04:05:29 AM
By importing the key's the wallet is watch only.
If the wallet is "watch only"... then you DID NOT import the private keys... This wallet has NO private keys, so all you can do is "look" at the transactions/addresses/coins... hence the name "watch only". You will NOT be able to send coins from this wallet.

How did you create this wallet? Did you just import some addresses from somewhere? where is the wallet that has the private keys for these addresses? Huh
6944  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: HELP Custom Seed in Electrum on: December 16, 2017, 04:01:29 AM
Two important things to note:

1. 2FA wallets use a special seed that are unique to Electrum 2FA wallets (and detected by the application as such). The seeds are "special" because they actually generate 3 different master private keys. The first gets put into the wallet file, the second is "hidden" unless you disable 2FA functionality when restoring and the third is owned by TrustedCoin. The result is that you cannot, as far as I'm aware, use custom seeds for Electrum 2FA wallets.

2. 2FA wallets will charge you extra fees for the 2FA service. You have to "prepay" for 20 or 100 transaction credits, 0.002 or 0.005 BTC respectively. (read more here: https://api.trustedcoin.com/#/electrum-help) These charges are ADDITIONAL to the normal bitcoin transaction fees.


If you want to use a custom seed, you can only use it with a "standard" wallet.
6945  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Are Hardware Wallets to be trusted? on: December 16, 2017, 03:48:42 AM
Addendum: I haven't found the word list yet, but I assume it is not divisible by 10 or 100. With that in mind: to keep the chances of hitting a word as even as possible, it may be prudent to use different dice (Your local D&D dealer can help you out).
You mean the BIP39 wordlist? https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt
6946  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Account balance - Something goes wrong...?!? on: December 16, 2017, 03:45:49 AM
HD is not a "client" thing... it is a "wallet" thing.

The wallet needs to be an HD wallet (and be generated from a seed and contain a Master Private Key) for it to show the HD symbol. If you have an older wallet, that just uses private key/address pairs, then you won't be able to "activate" HD unless you create a new wallet.

In any case, I doubt the "HD" thing is causing you issues.


As for your transactions etc... It would appear that the transaction that sent ~7 BTC should have created a change address and put the remainder of your 14 BTC in that change address...

For whatever reason, you wallet does not seem to contain this change address now? Maybe you've got a backup from BEFORE this change address was created/added to your wallet file? Huh (somewhat ironically, this is one of the issues that HD wallets were designed to fix)

if you use listaddressgroupings do you see that 1mAo address listed? If not, then I doubt that your wallet has the private key for that address.
6947  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Bitcoins stuck in phone based wallet on: December 16, 2017, 03:18:50 AM
Personally, I'd probably root the phone and then try using "adb" to copy the wallet file over to the computer... assuming of course that the app is actually storing your wallet data in a wallet file and not some sort of SQLiteDB.

6948  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: UnConfirmed, PAID Transaction, BTCore Wallet shows TX but not on blockchain on: December 16, 2017, 03:03:04 AM
Personally, I would probably try this:

1. Shutdown Bitcoin Core
2. add walletbroadcast=0 to the bitcoin.conf file to stop your wallet rebroadcasting these transactions
3. Start Bitcoin Core
4. Right click on the transactions and try: "Abandon Transaction"

If that works, it should "give" you the BTC back and you can then attempt to create a new transaction with a "proper" fee Wink

NOTE: You'll probably need to shut down Bitcoin Core again, remove the walletbroadcast line from your bitcoin.conf file and then restart Bitcoin Core again to be able to send your transaction out Wink
6949  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help me to recover 33.54 BTC from a corrupt wallet.dat, I'll pay you a Reward! on: December 16, 2017, 02:55:23 AM
I hope you have the original copy of the wallet... and have not been attempting to recover after you used "salvagewallet". Salvagewallet can make things worse.

But yes... give pywallet a try: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.0
6950  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction from investment site to coinbase stuck on: December 16, 2017, 02:38:12 AM
The only thing you could do is try to accelerate it by adding it to http://confirmtx.com/ or Antpool's accelerator.
Antpool no longer works thanks to the thousands of "me too" accelerator "services" begging for tips on this board Undecided They've ruined it for everyone by spamming it until Antpool effectively shut it down... The page is still there, but even after it says your transaction has been accelerated, it won't be included in a block. The system just does not work any more Sad

Confirmtx basically just used ViaBTC or Antpool... and ViaBTC is not an option given the fee is under 10 sats/byte.

Your transaction is stuck, you have no optiont but to wait for it to confirm or drop from the mempool.
6951  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: HELP: Bitcoin transaction to unknown address. on: December 16, 2017, 02:31:36 AM
Ah is that definitely what it is?
I would wager 0.002 BTC that this is DEFINITELY what it is... especially if your Electrum wallet says [2fa] in the title bar next to the wallet name.

It is simply the prepayment for 20x 2FA transaction credits... if you click the little blue shield icon in the bottom right corner, you'll notice you now have 19 credits (your transaction used up one):

6952  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Fees - What Should Minimum Fee Be? on: December 16, 2017, 02:18:48 AM
I paid 1 Satoshi per byte. I paid 230 Satoshi for my transaction fee because my transaction size was 228 bytes.
This is your fee rate.
This is an incredibly LOW fee rate

Recommended rates are: 350-400+ sats/byte... more than 350x what you paid! Shocked Shocked refer: https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/ and https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx

Quote
I hope $4 is enough for a fee. Tired of getting jacked on btc transaction fees. Some just insist on btc.
It isn't the TOTAL value of the fee paid... it is the Fee RATE that is important in deciding whether your transaction is picked up by a miner or not...

Also, your 230 satoshis (or 0.00000230 BTC) fee is actually only $0.04c Roll Eyes

With the Bitcoin network the way it is, your transaction is not likely to confirm for days, if not weeks Undecided
6953  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum 2.83- lost my wallet but have seed. Can't restore wallet - need help on: December 16, 2017, 01:36:27 AM
lte? Huh what is lte? Huh Did you mean LTC? If so... you can't just change LTC to BTC Tongue

If the seed is showing no history, you have the wrong seed, simple as that.

And if you DID mean LTC, then you need to download Electrum-LTC which is a completely different and unrelated wallet designed for Litecoint (aka LTC)... https://electrum-ltc.org
6954  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: unconfirmed transactions very stressed. on: December 16, 2017, 01:32:37 AM
* What's up with ViaBTC's Accelerator? Down temporarily or for the count?
Are you using the OLD url? They re-organised the site... try here: https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

NOTE: if it says your transaction doesn't exist, you can try submitting your transaction using their "Transaction Broadcast" link on that page...
6955  Economy / Gambling / Re: Seuntjies DiceBot -Multi-Site, multi-strategy betting bot for dice. With Charts! on: December 16, 2017, 01:21:32 AM
Code:
base = (((balance) - (profit * 2400)) / 250000)
base = (((balance) - (profit * 400)) / 300000)
These lines are causing the negative bets. The negative bets DO come from your script because the bot does touch the bet value that is received from the script.

why formula can make negative bets time after time, very rare?! if its formula, why then its not all time?!
Because #maths??!? Tongue

that script you posted is doing this:
Quote
if currentstreak>-75 then
  base = (((balance) - (profit * 2400)) / 250000)
  chance=  1.35 - (currentstreak * -0.003765)
  bethigh = true
else
  base = (((balance) - (profit * 400)) / 300000)
  chance= 1.10
  bethigh = true
end

if win then
  nextbet = 0.00000002
  if currentstreak<1 then
    nextbet = 0.00000002
  end
else
  if currentstreak==-1 then
    curbet = base
  else
    curbet = base
  end
  nextbet = base + 0.00000001
end

Notice where the nextbet using base is calculated? It is inside the loss section... additionally, this is adding 0.00000001 to the calculated base... so if the base is negative by less that 0.00000001, it will end up positive.

Also, your script does:
Quote
if profit > 0.00000010 then
  resetstats()
end

if nextbet < 0.00000001 then
  resetstats()
end

Both of which I'm sure reset the "profit" value... so there is a good chance that for 99.9% of cases you end up with a situation where:
base = (((balance) - (profit * 2400)) / 250000)
base = (((balance) - (profit * 400)) / 300000)
actually ends up being positive... because profit will no doubt be calculated as either negative (with all the losses) or zero, because you've reset... but if you follow the math... it is VERY possible that (balance - (profit * 400)) could become a negative number...

Result: YOUR SCRIPT IS BROKEN and has some edge cases where all of these conditions line up and it calculates a negative bet. If you don't want a negative bet, simply put a check in after your "base" calculation that checks for this and sets it to the minimum bet or something:

For instance:
Code:
base = (((balance) - (profit * 2400)) / 250000)
if base < 0 then
  base = 0 -- or whatever you want as minimum?
end
6956  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Warning about portable versions on: December 16, 2017, 01:05:10 AM
I understand, I'll try and accomplish my goal!) Thanks for the advice

And the question is, how can I find and download the version 2,9,3 portable on the Electrum website? Thanks for the link ... but it's hard to trust these links in our time Smiley

The link I gave (https://download.electrum.org/2.9.3/) IS the electrum website... notice the "electrum.org" Roll Eyes

Anyway... goto the download page: https://electrum.org/#download and click the "previous releases" link... it'll take you to https://download.electrum.org/ then you just want to look for 2.9.3 folder (https://download.electrum.org/2.9.3/)... and in that will be all the install files for the various OSes... just get the portable.exe (and the portable.exe.asc if you want to check digital signature)
6957  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Sending Unconfirmed BTC from Specific Address? on: December 16, 2017, 12:58:32 AM
Mate... your question makes NO sense... Inputs show outputs? Huh "btc address I'm SENDING to"? Huh Are you sending Bitcoins to yourself? Huh

Addresses coded in GREEN = Electrum Receiving Addresses
Addresses coded in YELLOW = Electrum Change Addresses

If you have two outputs and one is in yellow, you are going to get change.


I'm still not sure why you care whether it takes coins from an address you "used a lot already"... doing what you're trying to do will mean you can NEVER spend those coins!!?! Roll Eyes
6958  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: confirmation at 5 days and counting (electrum)- wallet for best control of fees? on: December 15, 2017, 11:37:11 PM
Fairly sure it takes 6 confirmations for Electrum to mark a transaction with a green tick.

Once it gets 1 confirmation, the icon should change from a ? symbol to a small clock icon...

Honestly, (sadly?) an 8+ day wait is fairly typical at the moment for low fee transactions... The network has been swamped for more than a week... Consistently over 100,000+ unconfirmed transactions. Undecided

Not verified means that no confirmation has been found. Is the little dot in the bottom right corner red or green?

If it's red, then you have no connection to the network and would explain why Electrum hasn't updated.

If it's green then, in all likelihood, your transactions still aren't confirmed. This isn't an Electrum issue, it's a Bitcoin network issue and any wallet would show the same thing.

Were the coins from these 2 stuck transactions the only coins in your wallet? If so, then it's very strange that you were able to shift them out of Electrum. If they weren't, then your wallet probably just sent other "confirmed" coins.

However, without having access to the transaction IDs to see what's actually happening, it's all just guesswork from this side.
6959  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Recover old wallet with 500 BTC??? on: December 15, 2017, 11:14:50 AM
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news... but you do not have 500 BTC and you never did. The transaction that sent that 500 BTC was never confirmed, it doesn't exist in the blockchain and doesn't exist in the mempool pool. It's like the transaction never existed... and even if you have the transaction data in your local mempool and could try rebroadcasting it, I would guess that the inputs are long gone given that it has been over 3 years since that transaction was originally sent.
6960  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum How can I send coins I sweep into electrum wallet on: December 15, 2017, 11:03:13 AM
Is the transaction in your history list confirmed? Does it have a green tick? If so, you should be able to send the coins... what error are you getting when you try to send your coins?
