Ne znam ni za jednu opciju elektronske kupovine kripta sa fiat valutama (a još gore je kad kripto prodaješ za fiat) a da u priču nisu umješane striktne KYC i AML regulative a znaš i sam koliko kripto zajednica voli da radi KYC. Poprilično dugo nisam ništa čuo za RSK. Imaš li neki link koji malo detaljnije opisuje kako su to mislili izvesti?

Nadajmo se da je ovo drugo.

Bitcoin is at the top of the pyramid. The community has put it there and they are keeping it there. It leads the race in market capitalization and trading volume, so people are obviously OK with what they get when they use bitcoin. If a time comes where the community decides to shift to something else or a majority of users abandon bitcoin for some other asset, the devs can ask themselves why that happened. 

Why would that present a problem to you? You could have gotten the updates from the official site like everyone else.  

If the option to update through the app is available again and you can click on the button, just do it. There is no need to download it manually from the official site then.


 You mean Ledger Nano S. Ledger Live is a piece of software, your hardware wallet is called Nano S.

Yes that's fine.

The app checks the blockchain for any new transactions that could have been made, that's why it's synching. It will do that from older versions of the app as well unless the team decides otherwise.

@jerry0
This thread is about how to verify the authenticity of Ledger Live. I would appreciate if you keep the discussions on topic. If you have other questions, make a new thread or post in one of your old ones.

You only merit people in those boards if they help you personally? What if they help other members or post something that can be of benefit to everyone, even those who don't seek help?
You are a merit source, so I guess you were joking with the statement above.

I will take a look at them for the next update, thanks for the suggestion.

Understood. OP updated with new minimum withdrawal amount.

That probably explains why I couldn't log in either or reset my password. Maybe the team has abandoned the project. The website is still online, so I will keep it in the OP for now. Maybe it will change ownership or become operational soon.

Yeah, I will check them out soon.

I have to admit that I don't understand why this is allowed but altcoin giveaways aren't. The link actmyname posted with theymos' explanation didn't make it clear to me.

In this particular thread, the prize that can be won is 1 NFT token. The token itself uses the WAX network. WAX=altcoin.
The participants have to make a low effort post to guess the last character of the hash (incentivized posting + low effort spam posts). All this takes place outside of Games & Rounds and in a currency which is not BTC.

Someone explain to me what is the difference between this particular NFT giveaway and some other giveaways where users got banned for participating in them in exchange for LTC and some other coins in the past?

Just to make it clear. I have nothing against altcoin giveaways and I certainly don't want to see people get temporary banned for them. When LoyceV suggested allowing giveaways for established alts, I was in favor of that proposal. But they should either be allowed or not. Which one is it? The thread kryme posted could have maybe just been overlooked by the admins and in reality shouldn't be allowed either.

Even if they have computer knowledge and have worked with other software, they could be confused with the difference between "broadcast" and "save". Electrum gives you options to broadcast or save your transactions. If you are doing some work in Word or Photoshop, you save your work and you close the program. If you construct a transaction in Electrum and you save > exit the app, you haven't sent/broadcasted it. But like I mentioned before, the amount disappears from your total wallet balance and you are given a hash. But like ranochigo said, it's their responsibility to familiarize themselves with both Bitcoin and Electrum.

Oh God, another thread about merits? Yes! But I promise. This one will be a bit different.

Many times, we have heard the accusations: merit cycling clubs, merit gangs, legendary members giving merits to their legendary friends, etc.

I believe that Development & Technical Discussion and Bitcoin Technical Support are this forum's cream de la creme. These sub-forums are the sections where issues about the Bitcoin network are raised and solved. When users experience particular problems or have questions, the members in those subs take care of them. 

But who are the users that help newbies and everyone else to solve problems?
More precisely, what rank to they belong to?
That is precisely the reason why I decided to create this thread. On 27 August, I took a screenshot of the two mentioned sub-boards to check what ranks are the members who reply to threads there.

I checked 5 threads in each section.
In the tables below, I have listed the titles of those threads. You can see the number of legendary users who have replied there. Besides that, I have written down the number of times a legendary user was the first to respond after a thread was created, and how many replies there were in total per thread.

What is the purpose of all this?

My hypothesis is that legendary members get so many merits because they are usually the first to reply and offer advice. They are the most frequent posters in the mentioned sub-forums, and their posts are simply the best ones.

Let’s now take a look at the stats and see if I am right or wrong:

|	Thread Title	|	Total Number of posts	|	Number of Legendary replies	|	Was a legendary the first to reply?	|	Percentage of legendary replies	|
|	What info can be gathered using my receiving address btc	|	5	|	3	|	Yes	|	60%	|

In summary

These 10 threads had:

-   153 posts in total.
-   67 (or 43.79%) of those came from Legendary members.
-   Legendary members were the first to reply in 6 from the 10 checked threads.


This is just a small sample that shows that legendary members receive plenty of merits for a reason. So the next time you think how the world is unfair or that the powerful are only helping the powerful, remember this thread and try to improve and do better. 

will be deleted...

No, not really. I have been gambling on sports on several other platforms and have never been asked to undergo any KYC nor have I been scammed by them. KYC does not equal a trustworthy platform. KYC means that an unknown person or group (that I don't trust) now has my private identity information. That information can be misused and sold. As long as that opportunity is there, I remain cautious. I am not saying your will do that, but you could, and that's enough for me. This forum and its community doesn't think much of KYC. If you want to increase your userbase, you should consider getting rid of it. 

A lot of confusion could be avoided if Electrum didn't display transaction IDs for unconfirmed transactions that are saved locally. Or at least if there was an option in the settings to display/hide them. I understand how someone new to Bitcoin would be confused by this. He saved the transaction, the balance was deducted, he has a transaction ID, but nothing was sent because it was never broadcasted (due to a fault of his own but still).

Don't forget the restrictive measures due to COVID-19 either. They might not be operating at full capacity or some of their workforce could be in quarantine/unavailable, which causes delays in shipping and delivering the goods. If you used an official German reseller, you might have saved some time and money.

Shipping is free within the EU but he will have to pay VAT.

He can if the original wallet generated a BIP39 seed and if it uses the same derivation paths as Ledger does. But it's not recommended and it defeats the whole purpose of a seed created in a safe environment by a hardware wallet. His original seed probably belongs to a desktop/mobile wallet and is hot. It could have been stored digitally or saved in clouds, email, etc.

After he configures his Nano S, everything should be moved from his other wallet to a Nano S generated account if he wants to upgrade his security.     

Once you set up your new Trezor hardware wallet, you will need to move your coins from your Electrum software to an address on your Trezor. After that you can use Electrum as the software for sending and receiving bitcoin as DireWolfM14 explained.

You don't need to and probably you can't because you need an internet connection to fire up the Trezor software. One of the benefits of hardware wallets is that you can use them even on computers that are infected with malware. Your private keys will remain safely stored on the device. 

I don't use Trezor, but I don't think it should be any different than when using Ledger Live or Electrum. You don't log out from those either, you just close the app. Ledger Live does have an automatic log out feature that logs you out automatically if the app is inactive for 10 minutes or more. Check the settings of your Trezor Suite, maybe they have something similar.
If your hardware wallet isn't connected and unlocked, you don't need to be concerned with having the Trezor software open. You have to sign all transactions manually by pressing buttons on the device. Without that, nothing works. If you share your computer with other people, they could see your portfolio if the app remains active. That's one concern.

Problems with the camera freezing were reported 2 years ago as well. The recommendation back then from one of their team members on githubmemory was to force-close the application and start from scratch.

Here is how to reproduce and solve the issue as reported by the user who experienced the freezing issues:

Bitcoin changes slowly, yes. But it's not going to change faster if it's threatening any of the main pillars that I mentioned above. Bitcoin changed to incorporate SegWit, we now have the Lightning Network, and soon we will have Taproot and Schnorr signatures.

When you talk about the improvements in altcoins, those changes can make them faster and cheaper, but to they make the networks more secure? Many altcoins have suffered 51% attacks and many others could be subjected to them with very little cost. Bitcoin doesn't do rollbacks, altcoins have. Bitcoin isn't centralized, many alts are + they are premined.     

Selling a collectible or any other item or digital content is not a giveaway. I see no reason why NFTs shouldn't be allowed to be sold in the collectible sub-board. I haven't looked at the rules for that particular board, but my guess would be that BTC must be one of the payment methods the seller accepts + whatever else he is content with. Do you have examples of threads where they are being given away for free?

True, but in that case you can say that about almost any transaction involving digital coins. That includes those made on gambling platforms, exchanges, etc. It could be just a way to create artificial traffic and attention or it could be legit users trading, exchanging, and withdrawing.

If you think that's bad, take a look at the history of Cryptopunks.

Thanks! I have updated the OP according to the numbers you provided.
Now I am missing the most recent data for Bitsler and 2Crazy only.

I have added withdrawal information for a few other casinos in the OP:

• Betja
• Fairlay
• CoinDragon
• 8Bet
• BlackJack.Fun

More to come soon...

Bitcoin actually has very limited functionalities. Even smart contracts in Ethereum or other alts aren't as smart as the name suggests. If programmed correctly, they can perform certain actions and that's it. They don't have the ability to evolve and change if such functions weren't programmed in the code.

We don't need Skynet or something similar to jeopardize our future. We are doing a pretty good job already by building robots that take over the jobs performed by humans for hundreds of years. Take a look at how autonomous the shipping industry has become. Nowadays you need one person capable of programming a robot to unload an entire ship. Thousands of physical workers lose their jobs to robots because of that.

Food delivery is being tested efficiently with drones in certain countries. Again, thousands of people are losing their jobs. People only look at the good sides of technology, but they forget that not everyone can be a software developer. The world also needs manual labor, garbage men, and shoe shiners.

We are the Skynet...

The worst thing that can happen is that you run into some ransomware that encrypts all your files and you have to pay a fee for them to be unlocked. If that was the case, you would know about it. Your devices aren't infected, it's just scare tactics. Unless you downloaded something before you received the email that could have infected you, there is nothing to worry about. You can ask the scammer if he can recommend some good porn sites based on the content he knows you have watched so far

He probably meant that he wanted to report it to someone. As SFR10 mentioned earlier, that address has already been reported multiple times for fraudulent activities. That's all you can do about it.
