Hi
Any plans to add BetKing.io to your bot?
I'll just save Seuntjie the trouble of posting the link Wink
Please see: "Can you add my site to the bot?" on https://bot.seuntjie.com/faqs.aspx#faq8

Standard fee is 0.5 BTC apparently...
7902  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How can i get bitcoin gold on electrum [step by step] on: October 25, 2017, 12:52:37 AM
The "snapshot" has happened... but the launch of the actual BTG network/blockchain will not occur until after Nov 1st (at the very earliest)... the code is not finished, there is no "BTG" at the moment. Undecided

Nothing to do now but wait.
7903  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum 2.9.3.3 not connected and restored wallet not showing balance on: October 25, 2017, 12:22:50 AM
I also installed the electrum wallet (same seed as home) in workplace computer but it will not connect (red dot bottom right).;

1. Why is electrum showing "Not connected" and how can I make it to work?
It is also possible that the firewall and internet rules of your workplace network are setup in such a way that Electrum is not able to work correctly due to ports being closed and/or certain domains being blocked etc.
7904  Other / MultiBit / Re: Help recovering old Multibit wallet on: October 25, 2017, 12:14:34 AM
You should also note, that if that was a MultiBit HD wallet... you will need to use the derivation path of: m/0'

refer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-KcY6KUVnY
7905  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Blockchain.info and receiving funds to old addresses on: October 25, 2017, 12:04:23 AM
All (or almost all) HD wallets use the same standard for getting keys from the seed phrase. They are not necessarily wallet specific, except in certain cases where a wallet developer decides to be different.
You'd be surprised! Tongue

Having messed around with MultiBit HD, Electrum, B.info, Exodus and others... whilst they all use "BIP32" as the method for implementing their HD wallets... they all seem to use different "Derivation Paths" (and in Electrum's case, a completely non-BIP32 method for calculating checksums)...

MultiBit HD uses: m/0'/0
Exodus uses: m/44'/0'/0'/0
B.info used to use: m/44'/0'/0' but now uses m/44'/0'/0'/0
Bitcoin Core uses: m/0'/0' (hardened addresses)

It's a real mess Sad

Having said all that... Electrum allows you to import any BIP39 seed AND specify the Derivation Path... so you can in fact import the b.info seed into Electrum and have it work. You just need to make sure you use the right Derivation Path when prompted, which should be the default of m/44'/0'/0'

Or, in other words... at any given time, a block with 1 transaction in it is (theoretically) just as "difficult" to mine as a block with 1000 transactions in it.
7907  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can I remove multisig function from wallet? on: October 24, 2017, 11:31:51 PM
Then the real question is how did you set up the Linux wallet in the first place? It would appear that it is a MultiSig, as it is only "partially" signing the transaction. The question is, what Master Public Key did you use as the co-signer?

I had made a previous successful transfer of BTC from Linux to Mac to check it was all working. It was, there came up in the Mac wallet automatically the transaction to counter sign. I had not even been made aware then of the use of loading a saved transaction as I hadn't needed it.
Your previous transfer of BTC from Linux to Mac... did you just send to the address that the Mac was displaying under "receive" and the BTC came up in the Mac wallet? Or did you actually create a partially signed transaction and then transfer that to the Mac and then sign and broadcast from the Mac?

this script stops when it reaches the target..
but I want to start again when you reach the target..how can I do that ?
1. Head over to the programmers discussion thread -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1114503.0 You'll get a lot more help there!
2. Read Seuntjie's programmer tutorials -> https://bot.seuntjie.com/ProgrammerMode.aspx There are even videos!
3. Try and learn how to indent code properly... it is almost impossible to read that script Undecided
7909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Seuntjie' Dice bot programmers mode discussion. on: October 24, 2017, 11:04:24 PM
You realise that you're in the "Seuntjie's Dice bot programmers mode discussion." thread right? Huh

As in https://bot.seuntjie.com/

This thread is for people writing scripts for Seuntjie's Dice Bot... which uses the LUA programming language. You should check it out... it works with a large number of dice sites Smiley

Also, your strategy isn't that great... at 6x payout, your "chance" is only around 16.5% (depending on site and house edge)... the max expected loss streak over only 10,000 rolls at that chance is something like 57. You're going to need a hefty bankroll to cover that Tongue Wink

7910  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Recovered my ledger wallet with 4 ETH from the seed to Bitstamp wallet..MISTAKE? on: October 24, 2017, 11:49:31 AM
No... nothing "moves" anywhere... the coins are not moved into new wallets etc... all the transactions reside within the blockchain for the specific coin.

You can use your recover seed in 5 different wallets at the same time and they'll all show the same addresses/coins/transactions... So, in theory, your ETH should still be sitting in whatever addresses it was in when you received them.

You might find this guide by Ledger useful: https://ledger.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/restoring-your-ethers-eth-or-etc-without-a-ledger-nano-s

It explains how to get your private keys from your seed... so you can then import those keys into something like MyEtherWallet to recover your funds.
7911  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Fees - $59! Holy shit! on: October 24, 2017, 11:22:52 AM
The "data" size of the transaction is what defines the fee... NOT the "bitcoin value" of the transaction.

A transaction with 1 input for 100000 BTC will have the same "data" size as a transaction that has 1 input for 0.1 BTC. Most wallets would attach the same fee to both transactions.

The "data" size of a transaction has previously been calculated as:

(Number of Inputs * 148 bytes) + (Number of Outputs * 34 bytes) + 10 bytes

Things have changed a little bit with SegWit, but in general... this is not a bad rule of thumb to follow... as you can see, an Input accounts for nearly 5x the data in a transaction that an output does...

As for the maximum amount of btc you can send in a transaction... Theoretically, there isn't one... however, there will only ever be 21,000,000 BTC ever produced... and given that a lot have been "lost" from people losing private keys, it's say to say, no-one will ever be able to send more than 21,000,000 in a transaction Wink
7912  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: what will happen on: October 24, 2017, 11:13:04 AM
It disappears... no, only joking. Tongue

Considering that all transaction confirmations and mining and the blockchain are not in any way dependent on YOUR computer... the transaction will complete successfully regardless of whether or not your computer is on, or your wallet is open and running.

How do you think paper wallets work? You can't exactly plug your piece of paper into the internet Tongue Roll Eyes

All the transactions are contained within the blockchain, which is nicely replicated across thousands and thousands and thousands of nodes around the world... they all contain the complete list of ALL bitcoin transactions that have ever happened. So, when you power your computer/phone/tablet back on... and reconnect it and sync up your wallet, any transactions received while offline will be found and added to your wallet.
7913  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: what happens to unconfirmed txs on the forked chain? on: October 24, 2017, 11:09:26 AM
If it was unconfirmed at block 491407... then the sending address was still in control of the coins at the time of the snapshot.
7914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Seuntjie' Dice bot programmers mode discussion. on: October 24, 2017, 11:02:23 AM
I got a nice way to win very frequently

but i am unable to write a good script for it
here is my try to brake it down
So, if I understand this correctly... you are betting on 6x or 8x or 10x payout correct?

- You start with a basebet of 1 unit
- You roll until 12 losses with 6x (or 8x or 10x)
- If 12 losses, then bet = basebet x2
- Then every 3 losses, then bet = previousbet x2

Reset back to basebet on win. Max bet is 1024 units.

Is that about right? If so... this code should do the job (NOTE: you need to set the basebet and maxBet values to suit your currency/bankroll):
Code:
----------------------
--
-- 6-8-10 Strat for jdquick
-- Written by HCP
--
----------------------
--Set these to match your site/currency/bankroll
basebet = 1
maxBet = 1024

----------------------
chance = 16.533
bethigh = true --bet high when true, bet low when false

enablezz=false --set to true to use high/low switching
--settings from advanced mode

enablesrc=false --set to true to use stop/reset conditions
--settings from advanced mode

firstPhaseLength = 12
stepLosses = 3

nextbet = basebet

firstPhase = true

lossStreak = 0
stopOnWin = false
multiplier = 2

function dobet()

  if (win) then
    nextbet = basebet
    firstPhase = true
    lossStreak = 0
    if (stopOnWin) then
      nextbet = 0
      stop()
    end

  else
    lossStreak = lossStreak + 1

    if lossStreak == firstPhaseLength then
      firstPhase = false
      nextbet = previousbet * multiplier
    elseif lossStreak > firstPhaseLength then
      if lossStreak % stepLosses == 0 then
        nextbet = previousbet * multiplier
      end
 
    end

  end

  if nextbet > maxBet then
    nextbet = 0
    stop()
  end

end

7915  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: "No such mempool transaction" When Trying to Get a Raw Transaction on: October 24, 2017, 03:39:06 AM
getrawtransaction will only work for transactions that your wallet is indexing... by default, it only indexes transactions that actually affect your wallet (ie. incoming and outgoing transactions to your wallet addresses)... or are currently in the mempool of your node.

If you use the -txindex=1 commandline argument (or add it to your bitcoin.conf), then Bitcoin Core will index EVERY transaction in the blockchain, and you'll be able to retrieve the information for them all, regardless of whether or not the transaction involves an address in your wallet or is in the mempool of your node.
7916  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Please help! Receiving Electrum wallet changed on: October 24, 2017, 03:31:59 AM
Hi. Please help! I sent some btc from an online wallet to my Electrum wallet, but before I got a chance to notice my new receiving address I put in the old address. Now I have my transaction in pending in my online wallet and it's not reaching my Electrum. I've been reading some stuff, but not sure what I can do.. Please help a newbie! Thanks
Don't panic. Everything will be fine.

Electrum automatically uses a new "receive" address when the previous one has been used in an effort to help users prevent "address re-use"... However, all the previous addresses are still contained within the wallet and can still be used.

I suspect the only reason your transaction is "pending" and not confirmed is that the network has been very busy with the Bitcoin Gold "snapshot" being taken today... and everyone moving coins around. There are 25,000+ unconfirmed transactions in the mempool and have been over 30K today because of this fork.

Just wait, or push your transaction with a transaction accelerator like ViaBTC or confirmtx.com... Your coins will show up eventually Wink
7917  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Can I remove multisig function from wallet? on: October 24, 2017, 03:15:33 AM
Anyhow, I ''  .....restored from seed, and it contains two master private keys. Therefore, two-factor authentication is disabled. ''
Wait... you're trying to use a 2FA wallet as a cosigner to another MultiSig wallet? Huh I'm very confused... That is like effectively like using an (already created) MultiSig wallet as a co-signer to another MultiSig wallet... Is that even possible? Huh

The normal process is:

- Start creating Electrum MultiSig1 wallet on computer1 (Linux) - Save the seed1, get the xpub1
- It will ask for the xpub for your co-signer
- Start creating Electrum MultiSig2 wallet on computer2 (Mac) - Save the seed2, get the xpub2
- It will ask for the xpub for your co-signer

At this point, you put xpub2 (from Mac) into MultiSig1 wallet (Linux)... and xpub1 (from Linux) into MultiSig2 wallet (Mac). This should then finished generating MultiSig wallets on both Linux and Mac that have the same addresses etc.

However, you seem to have originally created a 2FA wallet on you Mac? Huh Can you please explain how you originally setup your two MultiSig wallets on the Linux wallet and Mac wallet?

7918  Bitcoin / Mycelium / Re: Verifying Private Key Backup on: October 23, 2017, 10:54:36 PM
Wait, i didn't know this? Electrum supports Bitcoin Gold? Which means i can just import my Master Seed from Mycelium to Electrum, and claim my Bitcoin Gold? Asking this because i noticed first time that Electrum is supporting Bitcoin Gold(or i haven't done enough digging Sad )
Electrum doesn't. But Electron Cash, which is a fork for BCH, does. Just download it, and open your wallet just like you do with normal Electrum. Or import your seed/master private key, just like you would do to if you want to restore your wallet.
NO.

Electrum doesn't support Bitcoin Gold... Electrum is for BTC only!

Electron Cash doesn't support Bitcoin Gold... ElectronCash is for Bitcoin CASH only!

According to the BTG website (https://btcgpu.org/#ecosystem)... the only wallets currently listed are Coinomi, Freewallet and Guarda


I think it speaks volumes that they don't actually have a "Core" wallet listed... and it's about 1 day until the fork is scheduled to occur.

7920  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: cannot receive bitcoin on: October 23, 2017, 12:02:53 PM
In Electrum, don't try and read the file you've made from the Armory output... it won't work... All the applications use different formats to output keys etc... and all the extra " Priv58" and dates and times etc in the file will just confuse Electrum. What you need to do is either edit the file so you ONLY have the private keys... or just copy and paste ONLY the private keys into Electrum:

New\Restore -> Standard Wallet -> Use public or private keys

Then copy in the private keys, one per line. The private keys are the long hex strings from the Armory output, labeled as "PrivBase58", that start with a "5", "L" or "K":
