Predictions, advertising disguised in questions are easy to see they work under a different agenda (imho).

The newbies should be aware that even some of the answers they get may not be well intended. This can be a trap for many, unfortunately, and it's not always brought up.
9582  Other / Off-topic / Re: your internet costs and income on: January 16, 2020, 05:35:53 PM
In my country the internet and telephony are cheap. The internet at home is under 10 EUR/month (450Mbps d/l) unlimited GB and the mobile package is less than 5 EUR/month with 2? GB allowed to d/l.

I have one of the cheapest options for phone - a lot of internet and talking time - because the coverage at the country side is not so great. But it's the package that suits me best.
9583  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Unable to install Electrum on: January 16, 2020, 11:36:55 AM
+1. I am forcing it to update now. If nothing works, i will make a backup of the data and install Linux.

According to what MS page tells as system requirements when you d/l VS 2005 Redist, Win 7 SP1 is required.
So if you manage to install SP1 and Electrum still doesn't work, please try to install the Redist Package again.

Also, if you are so much used with Windows, you can simply install Win10. If you don't want to change desktop background and such look&feel settings and if the watermark doesn't bother you, you can use it for good unlicensed.

And if you go for Linux, an USB stick with Tails OS on it already has Electrum too.
9584  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is BCH, BSV more profitable than Ethereum? on: January 16, 2020, 07:25:17 AM
With all its flaws and lately bad politics, Ethereum is still a proper coin, while the other two are over-pumped clone copycats. Of course greed and speculation doesn't care about this. But really, you'd expect those clones grow more than 3 times and Ethereum stagnate? Really?!

No. They should not be more profitable on the long term. As a matter of fact, both are falling today.
What those clones do have more that Ethereum is shills. Lately the forum is full of new threads advertising those shitcoins.

Back to wirex...

I got a notification about a 5 AUD donation on my behalf from wirex for the bushfires in Australia, and it said: "open the app to find out how"...I opened the app, I closed the app I opened and pushed and tapped and...you get the idea...anyone knowing how this works?

I've got that notification in the busiest moment, so I've just deleted it.
Now that you're asking, I've done a bit of research and I have 2 links for you:
http://bit.ly/satsforaustralia  (it's wirex who have shortened the link, the full link is indeed long)

9587  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What are the fees on the crypto platform u are trading? on: January 15, 2020, 01:26:53 PM
Just for the record, Poloniex is also under 0.1% (just beware, they're in Seychelles now).
Also you guys should have been starting with checking the list from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5079048.0


However, Binance does have pretty low fees, doesn't require KYC and has good liquidity, so I think that OP should remain there.
Edit: Also OP can use a simple affiliate for Binance and already recover at least 10% of those fees.
9588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: what is good Mining or bountyhunting on: January 15, 2020, 12:07:13 PM
Are bountyhunters really making good money?

The golden days of bounty hunting are gone. At least for now.
This doesn't mean there are no people willing to participate, the problem is that ICO/IEO/whatever don't get investments, so the number of good new bounties is small. (And too many scam bounties also pollute the "market".)

Also I am not convinced that your approach / your websites are in the right direction. I would certainly not create an user to join to bounties when I can search here in the services area.
Do your sites do more? Do you (properly) check for the projects to make sure they will pay? Do you enforce the bounties escrow the funds? Do you enforce the bounties pay in something else than (useless) tokens?
Maybe the honest answers to these questions could improve your sites/services and make bounties better for everybody, since sooner or later better days should come (probably after Bitcoin rises more though).
9589  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Binance going to list BSV again after skyrocketing price? on: January 15, 2020, 11:55:51 AM
Along with Binance many other exchanges delisted BSV from their exchanges
and recently BSV has grown up more than 50% price within 24 hours of trade.
If this trend will continue, will Binance going to list BSV again?

No. Actually this trend is the result of BSV getting delisted and now has lower liquidity, making it a better target for pump-and-dump behavior.
Also the price increase doesn't make BSV less shady. Au contraire, it can make many others get burnt when the price will drop.


PS. Am I the only one noticing the big number of threads lately praising BSV price? Hmm....
PS2. Some websites are already showing it at -14%, probably depending on the timezone.
9590  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to proving e-mail address? on: January 15, 2020, 08:06:43 AM
I do not necessarily insist on e-mail addresses but I would like a method assigning one crypto address to one user or to one PC. Maybe 2-3 crypto addresses per one PC but not 100-1000. Is known Proof of Space used by BurstCoin, but it only proves that the user has enough disk space and probably he can prove their 100 other private addresses with the same disk space.

Crypto addresses are not tied to .. anything. Clearly not tied to a PC.
One user can create wallet with same address(es) on many different devices. I have the same wallet on 2 laptops and a smartphone.

Also, at least for privacy reasons, many users/services will give you different receiving address (possibly from the same wallet) for each new payment. So for real use an "address book" is that useful.
9591  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Nano X vs. Nano S on: January 15, 2020, 07:36:25 AM
I see you've decide yourself, still... I think that Nano X price makes sense only if you want to indeed use the bigger memory (big number of wallets/apps).

I have Nano S. The addresses and amounts indeed don't fill in the screen and they auto-scroll to let you read, but imho it's not that bad. Edit: from what I see with the newest firmware even this is changed to better
And with any 0.5$ OTG adapter the cable works with the smartphone too.
9592  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Balance Moved to a New Address on: January 14, 2020, 11:46:22 AM
Is there a way to switch off this feature in Ledger Nano S? It has now created 5 addresses in my wallet and there is no option to choose a specific sending address as it chooses that on its own. Some addresses contain less than 0.01 btc which may increase the required network fee.

If you choose to use Ledger Nano S with Electrum, then
1. In Electrum Preferences you can switch off the use of change addresses. I don't recommend it since the change addresses help your privacy. Also the returned change is still an extra input, so it doesn't help with the fee unless you consolidate them (send to yourself).
2. In Electrum, in the addresses tab (you may need View/Show Addresses) you can sort the addresses by balance, select as many as you want, right click and "Spend from".
9593  Economy / Services / Re: Bitsler Signature & Avatar Campaign (Closing Friday) on: January 14, 2020, 10:55:16 AM
Unfortunately all the good things have to end, sooner or later. I'll be missing this.

A BIG thank you for all the Bitcointalk members that helped us by wearing our Signature/Avatar![/center]

Thank you Baryom and Yahoo62278 for the opportunity and for the great campaign.
9594  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin-cli output addresses on: January 14, 2020, 09:22:25 AM
OK. Sorry.
That other array is for multisig transactions. I had to research myself and one example is https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/25767/why-is-it-possible-to-have-multiples-addresses-in-an-output-of-a-transaction

Edit: fun fact, even the page I initially linked doesn't know how to handle multisig
9595  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin-cli output addresses on: January 14, 2020, 09:04:14 AM
You can do a test with https://chainquery.com/bitcoin-cli/getrawtransaction
Just enter the hash b90df5b2583c5be0caeac08aa6f19e9572eb946abface8dcb98a37c029d3aff4
And don't forget to put verbose = true
Also you can see it in explorer: https://btc.com/b90df5b2583c5be0caeac08aa6f19e9572eb946abface8dcb98a37c029d3aff4
It was a random tx from the last block, you can just pick any other tx.


Now for your question: a proper transaction will almost always send some coins to destination and some change to a change address in the sender's wallet. That's already 2 outputs.
9596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin SV, A Game Changer? on: January 14, 2020, 08:10:41 AM
Bitcoin SV already hit BNB, now BSV price is more than ETH and I think it can hit ETH  in near futur, what do you think?

I think that the whales may be pumping before exiting the market.
You know, market speculation doesn't make a coin better. More profitable maybe, but not better. I recommend extreme caution.
9597  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Balance Moved to a New Address on: January 13, 2020, 01:26:09 PM
Did you make a transaction lately, a transaction which spent some of your coins leaving a "change" of 0.3BTC?
Because by default such change returns into your wallet, but a different address in the wallet (a change address).
This is for privacy reasons, but it can also be disabled. (It's better to leave as it is, though.)
9598  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 13, 2020, 12:07:47 PM
ESR stands for extended support release (had to google it).
From your post, apparently "ESR" is synonymous with mobile for the purpose of ordinary users.
That's one more thing left unstated in the advisories.
What is is with technical writers?
Especially in a case such as this, they need to be aware of the audience.  What the audience knows (not much), and what the audience doesn't know (mostly everything).

I have read that post I've linked, I've checked my mobile version, I've seen that it's 68.4.1 and I didn't check further.
I think that they may be expecting mobile users keep automated updates on.
Of course, assuming anything about the users is plain wrong.
9599  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 13, 2020, 11:42:15 AM
Why no mention of mobile?
Searched until I got tired of it.
I'm not sure they even stated they're specifically talking about the pc platform browser.  Though I think that's practically obvious.
Anyway I made sure Firefox on my daily drive linux box is updated.
However, my mobile Firefox browser shows an older version number, so I'll refrain from using it for now.

I guess that you should start from here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5216208
For mobile you need at least 68.4.1
9600  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: split your screen (mostly for charts observation) - http://split.click/ on: January 13, 2020, 10:47:22 AM
1. Advertise it as splitting the view in browser - which is what this actually does. For splitting the actual screen you don't need 3rd party app.
2. I made a test with https://bitcoinwisdom.io/markets/bitstamp/btcusd and https://bitcoinwisdom.io/markets/bitstamp/btceur ; it has frozen in "loading" mode. I tried to disable script/banner blockers, no use. Without your splitter it works.
3. 1xN and Nx1 layouts may be also useful (but ask from others too, who may actually use your site, I've been only testing).


Edit: I used Chrome for Windows, but I think that you can see that in your logs.
