8221  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why all this hype with Hardware Wallets when Bitcoin Core is all you need? on: April 06, 2022, 07:12:32 AM
I'm aware that Mycelium and Coinomi do sell other services within their "main" one, but I wasn't aware that Electrum does it as well. What kind of "crap" are we talking about?
Electrum isn't nearly as "bad" as the others, it's only 2FA. And although they show a Disclaimer ("a small fee will be charged on each transaction"), I've seen many topics from users who are surprised they suddenly have to pay $20 or more on their first transaction.

I am convinced the risk of losing funds due to unrecoverable backups is much higher than losing funds by being attacked.
That's why I prefer to have 2 different backup systems in place for the same data. I do of course test both systems independently, to see if I can recover them (before funding).

Quote
It could be viable as a secondary backup, especially for being able to store a few wallets' seeds in one small convenient location, with separate, 'full backups' somewhere else. Like, if you have to move somewhere for a while or something, I get it that carrying multiple of my backups will quickly get heavy.
I couldn't help but smile at the thought of going somewhere, suffering under the load of all your Bitcoin backups Cheesy

Additionally, Android smartphone company (such as Samsung and Xiaomi) add lots of bloat software which also perform lots of data collection and tracking.
Now that you mention it: it is indeed amazing how a problem that started on Microsoft Windows has now reached Android phones. And even hardware wallets are doing that shit nowadays, spamming all kinds of "services" within their software.
I especially dislike that you can't buy a product and be done with it. They use the product you paid for to try and earn more from you. That's one of the reasons I try to stay away from IoT-devices. And it's one of the reasons I like Bitcoin Core: it doesn't advertise anything. Unlike Electrum, Mycelium and Coinomi (and probably many more wallets) that all try to sell me crap.

Is there a fee if I want it to be more than 6 characters? (I will save up for this in-case)
I can do it for a fee, but keep in mind it can't be much longer: every additional character makes it 58 times harder to find. So 7 characters can take a while and 8 might not be possible.

Thanks for pointing it out as there was error in writing up and there was misstatement but now it has been edited according to what is written in quote.
It's still incorrect:
> : larger than
< : smaller than

So the quote is:
Quote
BTC withdrawals larger than (>) 0.01 BTC are free. BTC withdrawals less than (<) 0.01 BTC are charged withdrawal fees after your first free one per day.

YAY! Thank you so much for helping me out.  Wink
Congrats Smiley I'll stop going off-topic now. You may want to lock (bottom-left) this topic.
8228  Other / Meta / Re: Buying copper membership on: April 05, 2022, 10:03:00 AM
I think only small bitcoin withdrawals of 0.01BTC are free but you have to pay fees for amount exceeding this withdrawal limit
Judging by your own quote, it's the exact opposite: large withdrawals are free, small withdrawals are only free once a day.

I see. what exchange do you recommend then? Kraken is better right? Thanks
Kraken is much better. They don't try to scam you into accepting their own made-up tokens which they present as being the real Bitcoin (like Binance does). And Kraken only charges 0.00002 BTC withdrawal fee (while Binance charges 25 times more).

Hello guys, I am trying to buy a copper membership using Binance. I copied and pasted the address but it selected Solana as the default network.
If this is true, that's a new low. Even for Binance.

Bitcointalk isn't a school where you get exam questions. It's more like a university, where you're free to do almost anything you please, and it's entirely up to you whether or not you follow classes and learn something.
8232  Economy / Economics / Re: WTF? Food prices expected to raise up to 50% in German supermarket. on: April 05, 2022, 08:18:54 AM
should make the ECB think about what to do, since its main mission is to control inflation
I don't think there's anyone left within ECB who remembers their mandate. Isn't 50% close to the increase in money supply over the past few years?

Quote
lately it had been a bit lenient with it.
That's one way of putting it! I'd say they're nuts Tongue

Quote
With respect to the ECB, another problem that may be encountered is that of a catch-22 situation. After many years of giving massive amounts of drugs to the junkie, you cannot withdraw all the drugs at once, or the junkie will go cold turkey. Let's see how they do it without a major crisis.
But the longer you wait, the more it's going to hurt.

But... do you expect solutions from... ECB? What solutions? More paper money?! That happens anyway, since instead of the planned reduction of inflation, will be an even bigger rise of that.
It's ECB's solution for anything. Credit crisis? Brrr! Pandemic? Brrr! Climate change? Brrr! Inflation? Still Brrr!

I would prefer a reduction in public spending, as raising taxes, especially in this context, further stifles the productive sectors and consumption.
Governments are still spending more because of Covid, and my country is planning even more large expenses (mainly for climate policies).

It is because of Rising energy cost.
Something tells me this is only the beginning. Sure the current geopolitical situation has increased shortages, but long-term EU emission goals for 2050 and even for 2030 mean we'll have to consume much less fossil fuel. I've already seen memes about it. Those goals are unrealistic or at least very expensive.

Intel Launches New Bitcoin Mining Chips Focused on Sustainability
That doesn't make sense. If efficient chips are cheap, miners will just buy more of them and consume more energy.
If the chips are expensive, I bet producing them costs a lot of energy. One way or another, the sum of money spent on hardware and electricity will depend on how much money there is to be made mining.

Going from 27.5 or 31 J/TH to 26 J/TH doesn't really do much for sustainability anyway.

All those ,,,,, means I was had 0 difference from inclusion - exclusion?
No. If you had the same number of DT1-inclusions as exclusions, it would be ,0,0,0,0,.
Only commas means you weren't on DT1 that week (see the top row for week numbers).
8235  Economy / Services / Re: Bounty 10000$ Who can help me recall password! on: April 04, 2022, 04:37:53 PM
It would be useful if you post (for example one the first page) the list of already processed files / dictionaries / sources (and maybe size of dic/nb of files)
If All wordlists in one does what the name says, this includes all other lists:
Quote
This wordlist is the compilation of all wordlists in one. It may be helpful to create a table-lookup for hashes and password search.
It also says that All-in-One-P and All-in-One-Wi-Fi are subsets of All-in-One. So that makes searching further on weakpass.com futile.



I counted: the 57 GB all_in_one.7z file has 40,247,321,168 passwords. After several hours, I found out that's the exact same amount mentioned on weakpass.com already Wink
8236  Economy / Services / Re: Bounty 10000$ Who can help me recall password! on: April 04, 2022, 03:07:04 PM
I just sha256 on both strings to verify they are the same, and yes they are:
I was more curious if OP copied the same line twice. But I confirmed it's in the file.

I did sort -u again, but it's still in there twice.
I tried sort -u | uniq, with the same result.

This just doesn't make sense:
Code:
cat all_in_one_3.txt | grep 'Ca$$0411' | sort -u | uniq           
Ca$$0411
Ca$$0411

It turns out they're different after all. It just can't be displayed:
Code:
for i in `cat all_in_one_3.txt | grep 'Ca$$0411' | sort -u | uniq`; do echo $i | md5sum; done

My guess is one of those has an space in front of it
That's not possible after grep "^Ca".
8237  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Initiate a transaction from a PK on: April 04, 2022, 02:40:07 PM
If you value security, I'd suggest downloading a wallet like electrum (from electrum.org).
To avoid exposing your private key to an online computer, this is much safer:
I was considering Electrum, only downside is that when creating a wallet, seed creation is exposed
Online:
Install Electrum on your PC.
Import your address to create a watch-only wallet.
Preview the transaction, Copy the unsigned transaction. Put it on a USB stick.

Offline and running without hard drive storage:
Get a Linux LIVE DVD. Use Knoppix or Tails for instance, or any other distribution that comes with Electrum pre-installed.
Unplug your internet cable. Close the curtains. Reboot your computer and start up from that DVD. Don't enter any wireless connection password. Keep it offline.
Start Electrum. Import your private key.
Copy your unsigned transaction from the USB stick, load it into Electrum.
CHECK the transaction in Electrum. Check the fees, check the amount, check all destination addresses (character by character).
If all is okay, sign the transaction. Copy it back to your USB stick.
Turn off the computer. That wipes the Live LINUX from memory and all traces are gone.

Online:
Use your normal online Electrum to (check again and) broadcast the transaction.

Bonus:
After moving all your Bitcoin, and once the transaction confirmed, check if you own Forkcoins.

Why can't you pack this file "all_in_one_3.txt" into an archive
Piping it through gzip is no problem. I'll do that right now on all .txt files, see here when it's done.

Quote
462 Mb (before 7-zip)
64,5 Mb (after 7-zip)
It's slightly bigger using gz, but it's a more common (and much faster) compression method.

Quote
Also I see inside this passwords:
...
Ca$$0411 (8 characters)
Ca$$0411 (8 characters)
Are you sure there's a duplicate? That shouldn't have happened. If it did, I forgot a "-u" option somewhere.

Quote
We need a humans passwords of 10 or more characters only :-)
I figured I'd give you some more marging in case it's shorter anyway.

Some people just use the Trust system as their personal scratchbook.
Honestly, it worries me whenever I see such. The reckless use of the trust system for vendetta and intimidation especially by high ranked members is worrisome. I've come across red tagged accounts whose alleged offences were for spam posting (not even plagiarism) but those who tagged them couldn't put references to the tags.
If you see users who incorrectly use the Trust system, you should consider excluding them from your Trust list. I see you haven't done that yet. The more people make a custom Trust list, the more decentralized it becomes.
See LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system.
8240  Other / Meta / Re: Personal Notes on user accounts or a private Trust feedback. on: April 04, 2022, 10:15:59 AM
I think your best bet would be to ask adding a feature like this to [β] BPIP Extension: user info & extra features add-on/extension, but I also know they don't want to store any personal data. So unless an extension can use local storage or encryption, I don't think it's going to happen.
