Are you using some tools to make this work?
How did you manage to make it work?

From what I know this works https://api.blockcypher.com/v1/btc/main/addrs/1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE?after=520000&before=550000
But you have to test/make sure it works for you (afaik it returns only a max number of tx) and you have to know the block numbers for the period.
9762  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: two gambling games that are players favorite on: December 22, 2019, 06:19:00 PM
There are two games gamblers like this are card games and dice games ive seen people who look for this games everywhere , because this games are easy to learn and dont need too much effort how to do it, at the same time there is a bit high chance to win, aside from other games do you agree with me, feel free to share ypur opinion thanks

No. There's roulette, there are the slots, both easier than cards and many users love them. And there may be others I don't remember now.
Also don't forget those who got bored by the "old fashion" games and want to try out something new.

especially in card games like poker that it always gives me a thrill whenever i play it at the casino

Card games (and here Poker is a top choice) are - for many - much more interesting when playing face to face with people and in many cases even with people they know (!).
They can be an option in offline casinos, but in many cases not so interesting online.

9764  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Halving Block Reward Countdown on: December 22, 2019, 06:00:22 PM
May be you need little adjustment?

The halving will happen at a certain block (630000), we know that. The actual date/time.. is harder to calculate.
The date/time is estimated based on current block and the average block time.

Let's see..
Current block is 609,325
Blocks to go 20675
Average time 10 min
This gives ~143.5 days to go.

Now... if the block time is estimated in different way, the result can differ.
Since the difficulty adjustments were mostly upwards, shorter average block times are a good move.
I think that maybe OP took into account shorter period for these adjustments and according to the graphs in the last month the adjustments were staying under the value from Nov 25. Is this a new trend? I doubt it. And maybe here's where OP could adjust his algorithm. Or maybe he's right and he knows something I don't expect.

Too late the damage is done.

Indeed, the damage is done. But I think that the move will revive a little that exchange.
It's something I was expecting (hoping?!) with their move to Seychelles.
Although it's indeed a shady location which could cause other problems, let's be at least a bit optimistic.

If nothing else works, another idea could be to make a symlink with the name Bitcoin expects and which points wherever you want.

9768  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Can someone post examples of unusual transactions to help me understand.. on: December 20, 2019, 10:56:39 AM
Unconfirmed transactions after many days of the payment (does this even happen)?

Normally a transaction not confirmed after 2 weeks is dropped from the mempool.
Since lately there was no huge congestion, afaik there are not so old transactions to show.
https://sochain.com/ tells that the oldest transaction in its mempool is 17h old.


A transaction which showed confirmed till 4 or 5 blocks but then was 'reversed'? (if I read right, after 3 confirms this is rare but possible)

Afaik "reversing" a transaction happens only if the block which included the tx got orphaned.
This means that soon enough nobody will have anymore that block, so there will not be any record to show you.
If it helps at all, this statistic shows that there were no orphaned blocks lately (1.5 years).

The only thing I could find myself is here https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/explorer/ this has the feature 'Conflicting transactions'. Some are from very old blocks e.g. from 2015:
https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/txout/e276d10865d7780f2ef6436cfe49874131a53ad4199df7c7ee47cd883c29ac5b/0
What are these? Double spend scams?

Most probably double spends. Scam or mistake.
Such a conflict occurs if at least one input is no longer available, afaik.

What is more absurd is that cryptotalk signature barely have a design. It is mostly composed by big letters without any art, just with fancy colors.

He could at least change the colors, nobody would accuse him,.

Actually it's not absurd. I think that the user intention is that others click his link by mistake and get some traffic to his website.
Quite childish behavior, however...

9773  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Blockchain info not displaying balance on: December 18, 2019, 03:23:03 PM
I created another wallet on blockchain info wallet and it works fine though. I put my 12 word seed in electrum to restore the wallet there but its been synchronising for 5 minutes. If that works does that mean I can access my coins on my blockchain info wallet ( if it works again ) and on electrum at the same time?

I keep telling the same all over again: you coins are not in the wallet, they're on the network; the wallet (usually) handles the keys.
This means that you (and others!) can have many instances so the wallet. Whoever has the keys can spend (so don't just fool around with that seed, since if you have malicious software on your computer/laptop somebody may steal your coins; write down the seed and keep it safe).

So yes, you can spend from blockchain.com or electrum.
(I hope that you have a clean / correct Electrum from electrum.org)
9774  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: All Bitcoin Addresses With Balance on: December 18, 2019, 03:12:08 PM
There used to be such lists available here and there, but most are outdated, not available or simply not for free.

I've found a post with links to tools that may give you what you want, although they may need adaptations (and the chain data!), the may not work with pure SegWit addresses and so on. If you have the skills and the wallet with the blockchain, this is a good direction.

There are also sites like https://bitkeys.work/ where you can find all the addresses with balance, for free, but they're in web page you have to check page by page.


PS. The most usual use for such lists is to attempt whatever brute force. If you want to do that, please read more, since it's a task that will waste energy with no results.
9775  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: So I created a Trading bot and it's doing 8% a month on: December 18, 2019, 02:44:14 PM
Please let me know what do you think and if there are any numbers missing that you would like to see on the dash, I will add them when I get the time.

Really? You throw in some graphics and some numbers and wait for people to send money into the wallets you are controlling?
What would stop you go away with the money?
Why you allow simple mortals use these great bots instead of just use them yourself? With such monthly gains you can get easily on huge profits.

I'm sorry. Maybe you are just kind. But this looks like a cheap scam to me.

9777  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This is very bad for the European crypto community! on: December 17, 2019, 07:05:42 PM
New anti-money laundering (AML) regulations are coming into force by January 10 in Europe. The rules, which address cryptocurrency companies for the first time, look set to have a large impact on the industry.

The Fifth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (5AMLD) is set to take full effect in less than a month. It was first detailed in May last year.


Source link here

It means that they're clearly in a war against decentralization.

Hmm, I forgot about this. But actually I am not convinced by the ways it will affect me.
But if I read it through I tend to believe you either want to spread FUD, either over-reacting. It's actually a positive news that crypto currencies have to be treated by the businesses in the same way as money.

We want crypto to be recognized as money, but we cry out loud when they try to put crypto under the same rules as money. Is that normal?!

What tips do you guys have regarding protecting yourself from bitcoin sudden moves?

Invest/trade only with amounts you afford to lose.
Keep in mind that if it falls today, some other day it may rise again. Don't rush it for each and every fluctuation.
Don't be greedy, stick to the initial plan.
If you don't want to stay out of trading for long periods (until bitcoin rises again), use stop loss.

what you think I should improve drop it here and let me know.

I didn't spend too much time on it, but I've found 2 rather cosmetic things:
1. That blue-ink color all around is too dark compared to the "white" area and it can become tiring.
2. If I go into the forums area (eg: Blockchain) the first link is "chat". That could use a better name, since Chat sounds like a chat box/shout box, not a forum/threads area (it also confused me at first).
