Do not use andOTP
App is buggy and it deletes all the codes
it was such a pain to recover all the codes and go back to Google Authy. There is saying if it isn't broken then don't fix it. Use titanium and back it up.

I wouldn't do that now.

But if someone did that this summer, they would have made a ton of money by now, possibly enough to retire.

It's always risk vs. reward.

True but please invest wisely and only put put in what you can afford to lose. as if that money was never there.

I will buy more if this drops if I can. This seems to be more in align with the whitepaper. Bitcoin is supposed to be used and be in circulation and not just a store of value.

Don't use Google Authenticator. You can't easily backup your 2FA with it, and if you lose your device, recovering each of your accounts is a pain in the ass.

Instead, use a 2FA app that let's you backup your codes. I recommend andOTP:

andOTP is a free and open source 2FA app for Android that lets you backup and restore your 2FA codes whenever you want.

This means that unlike Google Authenticator, if you lose your phone or need to reset it, your 2FA codes can be restored and your accouns will be safe.

You can find the app here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-andotp-android-otp-authenticator-t3636993
Github Repo: https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP/releases

Good information. Any way to import accounts from Google Authenticaor into this app?

Sorry if this has been answered but are you guys going to implement segwit in the future and lightening network support for atomic swap?

NO , SEGSHIT has been patent by shitcore devs.
Any coin they uses it , shitcore can sue.

Use exchanges Offchain processing which works right now.

In the last 24hrs the BitShares blockchain carried out over 1 million transactions.  A new record! Making it the busiest blockchain in the world.



What's the link to this picture please? I want to check it.

Thanks to core developers. Bitcoin cash can scale in terms of TXs but there is no activity.

This caught me unguarded. One of the worst experience. Great way to drive the price up and profit taking by taking possession of everyone's IOTA fund right around the partnership announcement.

I will tell you what I told the other guy.

This is very important to transfer your Bitcoins. If you are giving out seed then do not transfer Bitcoin within the same seed addresses and use new seed. People have been scammed and lost Bitcoins for giving out seeds so transferring to new address/new seed is only way to secure your Bitcoins and then you can safely claim Cash/Gold/Diamond using the old seed/private key. Hope this helps.

Always move your Bitcoin first. Also if you want, you can use n-of-m using electrum. for example you will need to have two keys sign the transaction of 3 to send bitcoin. You can read about it on electrum website.

How do I claim coins from forks of Bitcoin?

Are these all the Bitcoins forks:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bitcoin_forks


First transfer your BTC to a new wallet, so they are safe and secure.

Download Electron Cash, then create a new wallet with your old BTCs wallet seeds. Your BCH should now be available.
For BTG you can use Coinomi, create a new wallet and then "sweep" private keys(from you old BTC wallet).

Good coin but with little to no updates from developers. I see smooth is very active on Monero but not Aeon on reddit Sad
93  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to claim my BTG? on: November 27, 2017, 01:25:39 AM
First move your bitcoin to new wallet (preferably new seed) this way transactions are not replayed on the original chain or lost of funds.

Export private key (after moving your bitcoin BTC to safe address) and import it on a bitcoin gold wallet. Currently their GitHub and site wallets are compromised to you may want to wait until this is fixed.
94  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is the safest wallet to use? on: November 27, 2017, 01:20:47 AM
Safest wallet is common sense.
People owned Trezor but still lost Bitcoins. Why?
Because they gave their seed on some third party website to claim Bitcoin Cash/Gold and soon Diamond.

Never give your seeds. Use air gaped PC preferably Linux such as Tails with electrum for Bitcoin.

Read the guides on how to secure your stash. Treat it like a treasure because it is.

Edited:
oh and make sure to create backup of the seed on a physical paper for yourself in case you lose hardware wallet.

You can use gemini.com exchange. Their fees are fair unlike ridiculously high coinbase fees
96  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] BitShares 2.0 on: November 25, 2017, 06:11:02 PM
This can be good but there is almost no liquidity in other assets. As a result you end up paying premium when you can guy same assets for a good price on centralized exchanges.

I guess the question we need to ask it: How are we going to solve liquidity problem?
97  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Where to go to find great team members? on: November 25, 2017, 01:56:25 AM
Run a ICO. Get developers by paying them and put together a marketing team. Money can do wonders if it is a real project.
98  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What altcoin will make us rich? on: November 23, 2017, 11:48:52 PM
most about 90%+ ICOs are scam. Be careful and invest only in solid teams. People are using fake linkedin profiles. trust no one and do your own research (DYOR) or get robbed.

I am sorry if this has been asked before but does Monero have lightening network support for atomic swaps?
