You should never trust a hardware wallet that is shipped to you with an already pre-configured seed no matter where it comes from. If that is the case, the wallet should be reset to factory settings and you have to create a new seed. Unless the hardware was also manipulated and you are tricked into using a fake phishing software, that device shouldn't be able to connect to genuine Ledger/Trezor software, for example.   

Because it's November and another round of Jerry asks questions. He has now asked similar questions about updating the firmware and the crypto apps on his hardware wallet. He isn't going to do either of the two because of *insert reason*. When a new firmware update gets released, he is going to ask whether or not it's recommended to perform the upgrade and what can happen if you don't.

I can confirm this. I have done consolidations in the past with my Nano S which included 20 or more inputs, and it does take several minutes before everything is signed and made ready. You just have to leave it to do its work and be patient. Electrum also freezes and unfreezes occasionally throughout the signing process.

I am curious if this is also present in the Nano X and other hardware wallet manufacturers?
OP never came back to reply what he did to make it work and if he figured out what the problem was.   

Yes, it was my interpretation of what they said and the word combinations they used. It would really be cool if the chip ends up being completely open-source and I hope it will for the future of the entire hardware wallet industry.

And thanks for the video. It's a rather long one so I will watch it in episodes.

Možda ti nemaš, ali nemoj da žena primjeti da ti sviđa njena šetnja. Doduše dok ti gledaš Gal kako šeta ona će da gleda Ryana a možda i Rocka. 2:1 za ženu. Ne piše ti se dobro Trofo.

My apologies. I simply forgot to give you the merit while updating and editing the thread. Since I kept you waiting, I added an additional one.

I wasn't. I am just interpreting their own words "as open source as possible". According to my understanding of English, that doesn't mean fully/completely/100% open-source. I could be wrong, but that's what they said. The "as possible" part could mean anything. As much as the manufacturing company allows, as much as some license agreement (if there is one) allows, or something else. 

I couldn't find anything newer about the topic. Can you post a link so I can check newer and updated claims?

I will sell you the copyrights for the word game for 3 BTC. If you send 5 BTC within the next hour, you will get 10 BTC back. You won't get a better offer anywhere else.
Hopefully no one will figure out my devious plan...

Sure thing. Go nuts with it. I got the idea to do it from other users as well. No reason why it shouldn't continue in the same or a changed format. 

Smiješno jest, ali siguran sam da su mnoge kompanije u prošlosti dobivale svakakve ponude koje su uključivale upravo to. Da se određenim američkim agencijama omogući pristup walletima i nalozima (čitaj closed-source i custodial usluge) od ljudi koji su prijetnja za "nacionalnu sigurnost" kroz neki vid exploita. Da bi im mogli zamrznuti sredstva onako kako i USDT i mnogi drugi stabecoini mogu.

Da se vratimo na temu filmova.
Ko nije pogledao Tomu, preporuka da to uradi. Meni je film odličan i prikazuje njegov zaista tužni život čak i ako je samo pola od onoga što je snimljeno istinito.

Drugi film kojeg sam nedavno gledao je Red Notice. Tipična akciona komedija sa uvijek smiješnim kretenom Ryanom Reynoldsom.

Za nutildah-a je i bilo očekivano jer je i sam to rekao. Odnosno nekom drugom je prenio poruku s obzirom da je dobio privremeni ban pa sam ne može ništa napisati. A Brainboss me je iznenadio. Koliko vidim nije ušao u drugu kampanju. Ovaj sig što sad nosi je sigurno samo promocija lokalne Nigerijanske teme, osim ako nije našao nekog sponzora. U posljednje vrijeme je dosta aktivan u nekim altcoin projektima i bounty-ima pa je možda to razlog izlaska. Postove u bounty temama Best Change ne broji ali broji u drugim altcoin podforumima.

They seem to have added a deliberate delay between button presses. It's noticeable also when you first connect the device and enter your PIN to unlock it. I remember reading about something like that in the past, but I can't find any source now to confirm it and I don't remember what reasons they gave for doing that. Have you checked in the settings menu if there is an option to speed it up? I will have to generate a new BTC addy later today so I will take a look myself and report back if I find something.  

Yeah, I know that. I was just trying to show that it is still possible to have multiple apps installed if they are dependent on the stand-alone app. Dependent (Ledger's term) is nothing else than a fork.

I agree, but I don't think there is much that they can do with the Nano S and its limited storage capacity. New updates take up more and more space and the Nano S looks like an old Celeron processor that is getting beaten by newer, faster, and better competitors.  

I didn't like the Bluetooth feature the moment I read about it. I look at it the same way as you do. A potential attack vector for the future. But what issues do you have with the storage space of the Nano X. Compared to the Nano S, it's been increased significantly!

His information is not completely wrong. The secure element is not going to be 100% open source.

In Trezor's own words:

https://blog.trezor.io/introducing-tropic-square-why-transparency-matters-a895dab12dd3
As open-source as possible means that certain elements of it will be kept a secret.

That's the one, good job.

The 7th round is now officially completed. There will be 3 more rounds and after that the word games will end.
In the remaining rounds, all members will be able to guess the terms from the first day. Newbies, Jr. Members, and Members will no longer have a slight advantage compared to the rest. 

Stick around for more...

There are plenty of new sites that I haven't added yet, but I am currently struggling to find the time to devote myself to that task. Hopefully, some personal things will calm down a bit soon.

From those sites that you mentioned, I have only heard about BTC365. I have never seen anyone talk about 4444sport or LTC Casino before. Generally, I don't want to add brand-new sites until they have been around for some time and built up some forum reputation. Depending on how trustworthy they seem once I make an update, I will consider adding them.

Since we have no new suggestions for the remaining term, members of all other ranks can now begin guessing the last word. Let's see if anyone can beat the official sponsor of this game to it. Join forces because you can only defeat him together.

I remember changing the minimum withdrawal amounts to around $15 based on the info you provided last time. I have now added the current estimates that are shown on the payouts page. BNB has been added to the supported altcoins section.

Thank you.

The new amounts have been updated in OP.

Cheers!

They should, if they care. In reality, I don't think they pay that much attention. But if they noticed a drop in deposits and less players in their casinos, they will surely make some changes. Those would include better bonuses, less fees, and things like that.

The data in my OP regarding Stake is still current when it comes to bitcoin withdrawals. I just checked it after seeing your reply.

Yes, that's the one I wanted to see.

@Jontokhan65
Pay attention to the replies written before you make a post, check the second post just below OP, or the one that announces the new rounds. Al of that will show you which words have already been uncovered and which ones are still not known.

The longest term is still up for grabs. If there isn't a correct guess soon, I will allow higher ranks to begin submitting their answers.   

The table has been updated. I have added links to new threads and discussions that were started from July to November 2021.

No one said anything about this part of OP's post. If I understood him properly, Coinbase converted the deposited bitcoin into fiat (Swedish Krona), and he says he couldn't convert it back to BTC. But the next morning, Coinbase sent out his bitcoin. What bitcoin if it was previously converted into fiat? Maybe they converted it back to BTC and than sent it out. Not that it matters because we are obliviously dealing with another issue here, but I just find this weird. 

@Kittn2
Reinstalling Electrum or installing some other wallet on that computer until it gets reformatted isn't going to do much good unless you find out what exactly happened. How would you rate your overall concern with internet security? Do you have pirated software, pirated OS and antiviruses/antimalware apps installed? Do you download torrents, watch porn, and open unknown email attachments and scripts that promise great fortunes?   

That's how I do it as well. Unless you want to do what DireWolfM14 did by merging all signatures in one file, you can always verify them one by one by downloading each signature file and making sure the names are in the correct format before you start the verification process with Kleopatra.   

I just had a quick glance at your most recent article about keeping your seed safe. Among the recommendations, you mention that one should be careful not to write down their seed in a place that has cameras and microphones. It makes sense paying attention to cameras, but what about microphones? Do you know of an instance where a microphone (more precisely a maliciously configured microphone) was able to capture sensitive data such as recovery phrases, and how exactly? The only thing I can think of is being recorded if you are saying the seed words out loud.
