Make sure you are using the latest version of ElectronCash... v2.9.4 - https://electroncash.org/#downloadBCH network had a "hard fork" on Nov 13th... ~block#504,000... it seems that ElectronCash v2.9.3 is unable to sync past block 503,999... |

Also, splitting your balance into chips does not help. The main reason for using a mixer is to dissociate yourself from the initial deposit.
The reason for splitting your own coins into "chips", is that it makes it look like "your" wallet is actually ChipMixer, creating chips  By creating a bunch of inputs the same size as ChipMixer chips, how is someone to know if it is "RandomInternetGuy" just making up his own... or "ChipMixer"™? Basically, "Safety in Numbers"... if enough people started generating identical sized chips in a similar manner, it would effectively start obfuscating all these funds and the "actual" ChipMixer chips would get lost in the crowd  |

You can call it whatever you want, a service which this guy promotes is gambling, and I need to know my odds before I get into the game, and my odds directly depend on a fraction of my prize which service provider takes from me (aka a house edge).
So how would you do that with a sports betting website in a situation like this?  For instance, current value on Nitrogen Sports for Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Tennessee Titans: Pittsburgh: 1.341 Tennessee: 3.553 Nitrogen don't say "we take 5% Commission on payouts" or anything like that... They factor in a spread on the various lines... So I guess you'd work it out the same way with Binary Balls... |

Restore that 2FA wallet... But when prompted if you want to "Keep or Disable" the 2FA functionality, select "DISABLE".
This should restore the wallet, so that it contains two of the three private keys that the 2FA MultiSig is generated from... The 2nd private key being the one that matches the "co-signer 2" key that you are currently missing.
This should hopefully allow you to open that partially signed transaction that you generated earlier (the .txn file)... And the "Sign" button should now be 'active' and clickable.
|
|
|
|
Which means that it currently doesn't have the right private key to sign the transaction... Now... And this is pretty much the "make or break" question... Do you have the 12 word backup seed for the (default_wallet [2fa]) wallet? |

It is in fact a house edge, you can call it what ever you like, but these fees are so high that professional traders are probably unlikely to want to use the service. For me, the fees are far to high for me to use it, although I would definitely use it if reasonable fees of 0.1% or so were levied.
I still don't think you quite understand how this works... All you see is that you are "wagering" 1 GB, but will only win 0.8 GB (total payout of 1.8GB)... and somehow you think that this means you're paying a 20% "fee". You're not, what you're essentially doing is playing "dice" with a 1.8x payout setting.... which on a lot of dice sites, would equate to a "chance" of around 55%. The thing is, YOU need to figure out what you think the actual odds of the "up/down" is and whether or not the payout you're getting matches the "odds" of the result you select. The "odds" are not as clearly defined as they are with dice which operate in a "fixed" environment... you're basically just guessing that the price is going to be higher or lower after a set time frame... now, if the market you're wagering on is "mooning"... then "UP" is more likely, the return will likely be reduced to reflect those odds.... likewise, if the currency is dumping... then "Down" is more likely and the return is likely to reflect those odds by being reduced. if the market is v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v... then it is a lot more difficult to guess... and I'd say that the return is likely to be closer to 1:1 to reflect that... of course, it never WILL be 1:1, as the site owner needs to make some money to cover costs... Payout
The payout is the total paid to the trader in case of a winning contract. Payout = stake + net return.
Example: A winning contract of 78.9% with a 1GBytes stake will award you a 789 MBytes net return and generates a payout of 1.789GBytes. The net return is fixed upon contract purchase. Its value is function of the selected underlying asset, the contract duration and the market conditions at the time of the contract purchase. As I suspected, it is just like a bookie creating odds for sports... |

Is Armory showing as "connected" and the correct number of blocks? should be around: 494285 blocks Also, after restoring the wallet, did you use any of the options in the "Help" menu like "Rescan balances" or "Rebuild and Rescan Databases"... It might also prove useful if you post your Armorylog.txt... (use www.pastebin.com to copy/paste the contents of the log file, and post just the link here) |

You're probably using the wrong Derivation Path... ElectronCash (like Electrum) defaults to using m/44'/0'/0' for BIP39 seeds (Most common derivation path for BIP39/Hardware wallets etc)... for MultiBit HD based BTC wallets you need to use a derivation Path of m/0' Basically, follow this video, but instead of using Electrum, use ElectronCash https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-KcY6KUVnY |

Tried to repeat the process for the 3.0.1 version but it didn't work - For some reason the 3.0.1 version is not creating the Electrum folder at "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\"
Like I said... sounds like a weird permissions problem... where Electrum is not able to create the folder... possibly the Windows UAC stuff somehow preventing it from writing to that directory? Did you try right clicking Electrum and selecting "Run as Administrator"? |

It's a slightly convoluted process... but it IS possible to get your coins out of a 2FA wallet using Electron Cash... follow this guide I wrote a few months ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2061343.msg21366179#msg21366179I'd suggest using Electrum v2.9.3 and the latest version of Electron Cash (which I think is v2.9.4) Electrum v2.9.3: https://download.electrum.org/2.9.3/Electron Cash v2.9.4: https://www.electroncash.org/#downloadBasically, the idea is to restore your Electrum 2FA wallet, in 2FA "disabled" mode... This puts 2 of the 3 private keys into the wallet file, which means you can spend without needing to use the 2FA service (TrustedCoin)... then you simply open that wallet file using Electron Cash... which should give you access to the BCH stored in those addresses |

Bitcoin can bw hard sometimes. Talk about mass adoption…
I think you meant to say " Cryptocurrency is hard" Bitcoin isn't hard... If you just want to continue to use Bitcoin, you don't have to do anything special... just go about your business... it's easy.  It's all the other altcoins that are causing issues... and pretty much, the only people who find it hard are those who simply aren't interested in learning anything and just want to dump whatever today's new shitcoin is for "free money"  |

I think that I entered the wrong PIN twice but that I now have the correct number. However, I am afraid to try it in case I get locked out after three wrong attempts.
You won't get locked out... the device will simply reset itself, but will be able to be setup again I have the 24 Recovery Phrases but my question is this:
If I have to use the recovery phrases will the information (coins, tokens) that are stored on my Ledger Nano device be wiped and will I consequently lose my coins.
If you have the 24 word recovery phrase, then you will be able to restore your ledger should you get the PIN wrong a 3rd time and the device resets itself, refer here: https://ledger.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/how-to-import-slash-recover-a-backup-on-a-nano-s |

Ok... I see what you have done... you have used your 2FA wallet as the cosigner for you original wallet... It is "possible" that you can do the following:
1. Create a transaction in (2_of_2) wallet. Click "Preview"... then click "Sign"... then click "Save". It should prompt you to save a ".txn" file.
2. Open your (default_wallet [2FA]) wallet.
3. Using the [2FA] wallet, from the menu select "Tools -> Load Transaction -> From File"
4. Select the ".txn" file saved in step 1.
You should be presented with the Transaction "preview" window and should be able to see all the details. At this point... is the "Sign" button able to be clicked? or is it greyed out?

In which case, you simply need to put the same private key into a BCH wallet of your choice... like Electron Cash ( https://www.electroncash.org/#download)... and you'll have instant access to your BCH. You can then do whatever you want with your BCH without affecting your BTC due to the 2-way replay protection. It is worth noting, that while there have not been any reports of people losing BTC due to ElectronCash "stealing" private keys and/or seeds... by simply exporting the private key and importing them into ANY other wallet, you are potentially exposing them to any keyloggers, screengrabbers or other malware on your computer designed to steal cryptocurrency related data. Whether you want to "move" your BTC to different addresses (and therefore different private keys) before you import to a BCH wallet is up to you. The network is very busy at the moment and fees are really high again  |

Why did you not just import your keys into Electrum to start with? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaijbTcxsv8You should probably just go ahead and do this now anyway... That way, for your future transactions you will be able to setup the fees "properly" As for your current "missing" transactions, it is probably just the Electrum server you are connected to, not showing the transaction in their mempool... the total mempool size is just ridiculous at the moment, and a lot of nodes/servers have a limited "max mempool size" to prevent running out of memory. As you can see on b.info, the transactions are still there... https://blockchain.info/tx/26deca94f2d25544f3fb8b2b0cf7b0a600fb0643048324361f135626c974f057https://blockchain.info/tx/0bc458eca7ac00b28db7345ad234743e7571eeb146f5bf4b9ca79698f60fa33ethey just haven't confirmed yet. If they confirm, they will definitely show in your Electrum history. However, if they remain unconfirmed and the mempool stays flooded... they might re-appear and disappear depending on what Electrum server you're connected to... and what transactions it is holding in it's 'local' mempool. If you absolutely MUST have the unconfirmed transaction showing in your history, Try "Tools -> Network -> Server" and untick the 'Connect Automatically' option and try using different servers until it shows up. |

You don't have "wallets" in your wallet.dat file... The wallet.dat file is ONE wallet file. What you have is many private keys and addresses.
Do you have a FULL blockchain (150+ GB) or are you using Bitcoin Core in "pruning" mode?

I am not against a house edge, it is absolutely fair to charge a fee for providing service, but your house edge seem to be pretty high to me. That is why I am asking to provide more details on how exactly you calculate payouts and how much you keep for yourself.
Blockchain (or DAG) based business is all about transparency. Without transparency why bother about these technologies? You keep using "house edge" as if this was in relation to casino gambling... You are using the wrong term. It is NOT a house edge. A house edge is the theoretical "edge" that the house has based on mathematically provable probabilities over an infinite series of events. This is more like sports betting... and the risks involved offering odds on the result of a sporting event. Given that there are so many factors outside the control the guy running this service... and the result is not likely to be "truly random" like casino games are supposed to be, I would suggest that he has basically done a quick "risk calculation" based on historical data/current events/magic 8 ball... and has created the options as he deems appropriate. Essentially the same way a bookie will calculate odds on a sports result... Think of it this way... Brazil vs. Scunthorpe United in a game of football... it wouldn't be entirely unexpected that the payout for Brazil winning would be something like "$1.01", in which case, you'd need to wager $100 to win $1.... much like whatever option you were looking at... betting 1 GB to make 0.8 GB... sounds like the "bookie" decided that was the more likely outcome of the two and adjusted the payouts accordingly. |

I have just checked HITBIT exchange. BTG wallets are created there. It would be good Electrum DEVs to release the way how to obtain BTG from Electrum wallet. Thank you
Bitcoin Gold aka BTG has NOTHING to with Electrum... as Electrum is for BTC only. Not sure why you wanting some altcoin has anything to do with the Electrum Devs? Besides, even if the Electrum Devs got involved, there would be no way to "obtain" BTG from Electrum, as you can't send BTG from Electrum, due to the replay protection. Unless what you're asking for is that the Electrum Devs, fork the Electrum code and build a BTG wallet... which is just nonsense. You either need someone who cares about BTG, like the BTG project devs, or some other interested third party to create that Electrum fork. Otherwise, you can simply export your private keys and then import them into a BTG wallet of your choosing. Instant access to your BTG. mmm what do you mean with "electrum fork for Bitcoin Gold"?
Why they just can create a "electrum wallet for BTG"?
I don't understand why you use the "fork" word.
That's exactly what he means by "electrum fork for bitcoin gold"... in coding terms, when you "fork the code", you make a copy of the original project... and then modify it to suit your purposes... this creates a "fork" in the code branches... |
