I asked Amazon a few hours ago (in german, translated below): -snip- -snip-
to that end I have forwarded your e-mail to the responsible department and I thank you for your suggestion.
-snip-
-snip- From personal experience: they did not. It looks like a boilerplate answer and whoever answers 1st level mails will not be able to forward it someone important enough to make that decision anway. Dont bother, you will just start to annoy poorly paid students if you send to many mails. |

Running linux and want to hide my mining process. Any pointers?
If you want to hide from users that have no root access read into hidepid. If you try to write a mining trojan or use company equipment: dont. The little BTC you gonna make from mining is not worth it. Probably not even if you worked for AWS. If you have the skills to actually pull this off you will get paid more if you invest the same amount of energy into something productive. |

-snip- Yeah, it'd be good to have some input from someone who does moderate the forums. It was just a thought I had since there are now GEN4 chips being baked and a massive range of hardware available. My thought was that if each manufacturer had their own child board within the hardware section, it would be easier for users/miners to ascertain which they would wish to consider buying. at the moment, threads are all over the place and I can only foresee more independent threads appearing in the near future. yeah, I get OCD and I like to tidy up  I'd be quite happy to look after the section if need be. I get your point and I personally would prefer a more granular structure for the board. On the other hand I also see that plenty people post in the wrong section. E.g. lots of problems with blockchain.info are posted in tech support instead of service discussion. People also tend to post in tech support when they should actually post in Electrum, Multibit or another wallet specifc subboard or have problems with their mining hardware (mining support). Its certainly not true for every post, but some seem to overlook the subboard once they are to deep into the structure. Thus - even though it might be more orderly - every new subboard creates potential for posting in the wrong section. Which ofc should not be an argument to reduce the board to a single section  |

fair enough, your thought is that more child boards would create more work, my thought is that more child boards simply gives a better filing system on the forum, so less work, we can agree to disagree. Allright. Maybe we even get someone from Staff to comment on this |

-snip-
so it would be simple enough to have child boards for every purported manufacturer, and as is already the case, let the community decide for themselves if they are trustworthy.
Yes it would be additional work. Whether this is simple or not does not matter, esp. since we are talking about constant workload to add every backalley "manufacturer" of hardware. regarding administrative care, that's what admins and moderators have committed to be there for and in my view, creating child boards for each manufacturer would make it easier, not more difficult.
I doubt that they have committed to care for a subboard for every special purpose. If its needed because a certain topic floods everything else in certain section I am positive that a now subboard would be created. there are also many independent threads which relate to particular hardware manufacturers products, littered across the forum. collating them all into one place would be (forgive my OCD) a far better filing system.
A overall section for all hardware is allready in place. If you see them elsewhere, report them and they will be moved if the staff agrees with you. so, tell me, exactly what would you be against, and why, in this proposal?
I am not personally against this. I just think its not worth the work the staff would have to put into this. the idea is to make it more accessible for users, and thus, in doing so, whether it is more work or less work for admins and mods, should be irrelevant.
Since AFAIK they "work" for free, they will disagree with you. |

For me, trusted manufacturers are those who sell products and honour their order queues in a timely manner.
But the subboard is not only for you. The staff, mods and admins tend to stay away from judging who is trustworth and who is not, because #1 its difficult (think: detect a long con before its too late) #2 it would allow for manipulation The child boards would have dedicated topics for each product, the amount of posts would merely depend on the number of customers, a thread with only 2-3 posts per week would also be informative in itself as it would show the lack of interest in a product.
Each subboard needs administrative care. If noone is posting there its more work than benefit. The existing subboards can be scanned for posts regarding a certain manufacturer to judge the interest in their products (or lack of the same). |

lol. He really has sand in the pussy. Must be new to the internet.  That is your first post?  On that account anyway... That account actually had at least 2 more posts in the german section which got removed. |

To assist buyers who may be considering mining hardware purchases, I would like to propose admins of the forum create child boards within the Hardware Section, relating to each trusted manufacturer.
Who decides which manufacturer is trusted? This would help buyers more easily navigate when choosing which product to buy and would also allow manufacturers to host individual support threads for each product.
discuss.
Is there demand for a specific section for each manufacturer or are we talking about 2-3 posts a week? A dead section noone posts in does not help anyone. |

What i heard is you can buy/sell items in-game with bitcoin
But, i think it's just for fun, not for main income.
MinecraftCC does not allow ingame trades with BTC. One Minecraft server that I can vouch for from personal experience is MinecraftCC  Great community over there, and you can earn satoshis from mining blocks. Check it out  How much satoshi's for a diamond ore ? Dia Ore is 5 Satoshi [1]. [1] http://www.minecraftcc.com/index.php?threads/get-paid-to-play-minecraft.4613/ |

yes 11am i sent btc and the password works when i try again i used same password because i copy past it every time and than it say invalid password i did not import some keys i only try if the password works or not but only there it works or not i did not know because i did not try until the end to import keys so problem is password works and 3 hours later did not work and
I still cant follow you. now i like to know if i can deinstall electrum and install it new and with my seed i can load my old value without any password to use??
Yes, if you have never imported any key you can use the seed to restore your wallet. The new wallet will not be password protected. |

until BTC button is on the donate page it does not count.
How one earth they don't do this is beyond me. It goes agaisnt the ethos of everything they should stand for, plus they are just being dicks about it, which is far worse
Took me 10 seconds (on a modern browser), if you dont want to give, dont.  |

i did not forgett it mate it works fine for import of keys at the moment and also works today 11.11 fine now it did not work again
Yes i have my seed write down i am a noob can you explain it bit better what to do and if i must deleted electrum first
Maybe you start by telling us what exactly (!) you did. If you imported keys you can not restore them from the seed. What does "works today 11.11 fine now" mean? What did you do between "it worked" and "it did not work again"? |

It's an interesting subject. I would really appreciate some feedback on the above stated inquiry. Thank you.
IMHO it makes no sense for the NFC tag to do the work, but rather let the wallet software on the smartphone do the work. As in: - read NFC data (encrypted privated key) - ask user for password - decrypt - ask if to import into wallet (warn about potentional dangers) or wipe to wallet via TX - etc. pp. Edit: which would very similar to the existing QR Code scanning methods and would most likely require very little code changes for e.g. Mycelium. |

Thanks you so much dear shorena for your exact and useful answer.
another thing to know.
I found my private key at blockchain.info.
you told that anybody who knows your private key can spend your bitcoin in whole? righ?
but how? in where?
Yes, anyone that knows your private key can spend the funds associated with it. Almost all wallets have an import feature, which would allow the wallet to create a transaction for you that spends the funds. In theory you could even do this by hand or write a little script that does that. I wanted to test it. my private key at blockchain.info is available in some formats : bitcoin-qt ,hex,etc.
which one of them is in use?
"in use"? I dont understand that question. for example the multibit ask me to import a " file" from my computer while
all of the mentioned formats of private keys are some letters and number that can be only copied and pasted in a text document
which multibit can not recognize . or can a private key be used to import in only the same service?
This depends how your wallet exports. E.g. multibit exports (when unencrypted) a file like this: # KEEP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS SAFE !
# Anyone who can read this file can spend your bitcoin.
#
# Format:
# <Base58 encoded private key>[<whitespace>[<key createdAt>]]
#
# The Base58 encoded private keys are the same format as
# produced by the Satoshi client/ sipa dumpprivkey utility.
#
# Key createdAt is in UTC format as specified by ISO 8601
# e.g: 2011-12-31T16:42:00Z . The century, 'T' and 'Z' are mandatory
#
L35DEFBrrMJHVUquyyvJn9ZiXfwbwKBJBeEbRkXwnqhbjAjnrj23 2014-12-04T23:16:20Z
# End of private keys
You can just create the same format with your unencrypted private key from bc.i and multibit can import it without problem. AFAIK bc.i exports encrypted, thus multibit might not understand the data. |

Export the private key via the dev console under help. Type help to see all commands, it should be dumpprivkey <address>. You might have to unlock the wallet first, the command for that is walletpassphrase <password> <time> where time is the time its unlocked in seconds.
Once you did this, it will show your private key for that address and you can write it on paper.
Not sure why you dont just create a paperwallet and transfer the coins via a transaction, which has way less steps that can go wrong though.
