9921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: [OPEN] Need $10 in BNB (BSC), have $12 in BTC on: October 08, 2021, 08:42:00 AM
I need $10 in BNB once again.
I know nothing about BNB (other than it being a centralized shitcoin), but if it's "BEP2", FixedFloat might be what you're looking for.

I'm thinking that a 25 page thing using ocr would not be very efficient in that regards but maybe a shorter thing like 2 or 3 pages max.
I think you should rethink this idea:
I need a way to store more information than just the seed words. For each wallet, I figure I might need upwards of 1000 characters. Possibly I'd like to store multiple wallets all at once. So looking at maybe 5000 to 10000 characters. 10 kb. I need to be able to print out an encrypted image on a piece of paper. That would be my cold storage. When I'm ready to redeem, I will scan the image back in and decrypt its contents. And recover the original text file containing all my important seed phrases.
What are the 1000 characters per wallet you're trying to store? There's probably a better solution, if you explain what exactly you're trying to do.
Can you start with an example: create a (throw away) Bitcoin wallet, and post everything you want to store here.

Allow me to be the first: that was stupid! But what's more stupid, is waiting 2 years before explaining it.

I sent him a PM and asked an apology.
I hope this is because of your English: asked > offered!

Or someone reputed to the forum should have been informed in advance.
Nothing is more reputed than a signed message: if you're going to do stupid things, you can sign a message upfront to prove later on that it was intentional.

So, post this somewhere in Archival:
Code:
G71zpw0D/eXrJ51hsQ9gvLutTAKZOiWHNlMMgXwnRKvYQPAhmR1T8hki30yQcwqmn6vOG08i5Rt607TN3apLHWo=
Don't edit this post anymore.

Then, later, you can prove your intentions by posting this:
Code:
Today is October 8, 2021. I'm going to do stupid things: tomorrow I'm say I am theymos, just to mess with all of you.
Signed by 1LoyceVGjMmUj6Na79M9Ju8N52KXkbKMQE (staked here).
I forgot the words "I'm going to say", but don't want to sign again.
Disclaimer: I'm not theymos!


Of course, if you start posting signatures without ever posting what they're for, you could be building up a pile of shady shit and selectively deciding what to use. Don't go down that road.

@Chipmixer I sent you an email hours ago, and I have gotten no response.
Support isn't online 24/7, it may take up to a few days.

This is crazy, how do you decided to take my funds as a donation on your own?
You can't withdraw less than 0.001BTC from ChipMixer. That's why, on step 1: Deposit, it shows:

Minimum amount is 0.001 BTC with 0.001 BTC increments.
From the FAQ:

What will happen if I send less than lowest chip?

Since we don't have chips lower than 0.001 BTC, your deposit will be treated as donation. Be aware that if you send 0.0015 BTC, you will receive one 0.001 BTC chip. Sending 0.0015 BTC twice will result in two 0.001 BTC chips.

Why don't you check https://bitcoin-vps.com/
Most are quite expensive, especially for large storage (thanks to Chia mining I guess).

recheck feature on VPS provider you currently use.
Loyce.club is hosted on AWS, sponsored by suchmoon. But AWS charges ridiculous rates for bandwidth, so it's not worth it for large files. My addresses with a balance costs about 1% of what AWS would charge for the bandwidth. But it's currently offline. AWS is never offline Smiley

If you don't already know this, there's a bunch of virtual/temporary card services out there that might work if you can pay for multiple months up front.
I prefer to get one that accepts crypto directly. I'm keeping an eye on LowEndTalk for new offers. Some are good, some just disappear after a while.

Quote
I might be willing to consider paying for it myself somehow if you don't find another option, but that'd get complicated
I have a pay-by-the-hour account at RamNode, that will work. But it's not worth keeping online all the time (and some work to setup for one-time use). I've used it a few times, performance is good.



What exactly do you need? Just a (sorted) list of all Bitcoin addresses ever used (including emptied addresses, about 20 GB compressed), updated up until yesterday? Or would you need frequent updates too?

I don't think many people will want to use a wallet that takes all their money every few months! Even though you announce it up front, this will likely end in terrible disappointment for some of your customers.

The fact that your wallet/mixer doesn't work in Tor browser isn't encouraging. There's much more to browser identification than just a new IP address, and Tor browser is much easier than booting up a different VPN.

From your fees section:
Image loading...
It looks vaguely familiar, did this overview come from Moneypot? What does "eco" and "free" mean here?
You're comparing your fees to "Any Wallet", but use ridiculously high fees to compare with. My wallet doesn't have a receive fee, and my last send fee was 111 sat. No decent wallet charges 49368 sat for a transaction.



I was hoping for an easy implementation of "theymos' Blinded Bearer Certificates".
9928  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Can I just run a pruned node without downloading historical data? on: October 07, 2021, 02:22:50 PM
The only implementation I am aware of is this: Bitcoin Core pruned blockchain: download it here! (DON'T DO THIS!) It is no longer being maintained, though.
This doesn't include a UTXO list. I'm not even sure if a pruned node does that nowadays. I'd like the feature though: that would allow to load an old wallet.dat into a pruned node.

That triggers me a lot. Feels like the developers forcing me to do a lot of extra work.
It's part of the "verify, don't trust" mantra. As long as you're not limited on data, any half decent computer should be able to download and prune Bitcoin Core in about a day. If you have enough RAM you could even fit it on a RAM drive to beat SSD speed (I've done this as a test on /dev/shm).

There's a site for that too: bitrawr.com: it shows there are actually a few more blocks found than expected since the last difficulty adjustment.

it appears that the whole .club thing is down:
That's just bad! Is Zuckerberg running it or something? Tongue

Edit: it's working again.
For me it works again through Tor, but not (yet?) on my own computer. It works again Smiley
https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/loyce.club shows it's up too.

The good news is that AWS just keeps running, so none of the notifications (or other data) should have been lost.
9932  Bitcoin / Project Development / loyce.club: Temporary failure in name resolution on: October 07, 2021, 11:42:17 AM
I'm posting on this board hoping someone can help me: loyce.club is offline. I still have an old working SSH login, but can't reach the domain:
Code:
ping loyce.club
ping: loyce.club: Temporary failure in name resolution
At Namecheap.com, my DNS settings didn't change.

Any idea where to start searching?

Update:
Looks like a DNS issue. Not sure how the root servers work with these newfangled TLDs but it appears that the whole .club thing is down:

If a user corrects his own post, he doesn't get banned.
Do you know that for sure?
I can't be absolutely sure, but it wouldn't make sense otherwise: why would someone get banned for a mistake he corrected on his own? If the reporter doesn't want to give that chance, he shouldn't post publicly about the plagiarism and use only Report to moderator.

I've mentioned it before: dumping a list of references shouldn't be allowed by the forum: posts should specifically highlight (ideally by quoting) which part comes from which source
I was of the opinion that  anything copied from internet should be attached to a post as source/reference. That is what I did.
Showing a link is enough to prevent a plagiarism ban indeed, but dumping 10 links doesn't help someone who wants to verify what you copied from the original source.
If you use separate quote/author-tags for anything you quote, or just add it as a description to a hyperlink, you give credits in a much better way.

mdayonliner = S_Therapist = Little Mouse = DTalk = bitcoinbangladesh.org = RapTarX

The final goal is to have multiple accounts with 250+ earned merit, so that they can push one of these alts (probably Little Mouse, DTalk or RapTarX) into DT1. That would help them to pull an elaborate scam. Monitoring their trust list may reveal more in the long run.
I have no proof that there is any real connection among these accounts and hence leave it for investigation to the community.
There's not really a point in investigating an accusation without proof. But if it really happens someone gets his account on DT1 by using sockpuppets, all it takes is one topic in Meta to blacklist them from DT1-voting.
9936  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: [Sep 2021] Mempool empty! Use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs! on: October 07, 2021, 10:18:57 AM
I don't know where you got the idea that we should be able to have an empty mempool next weekend).
Experience: fees are usually lowest on Sunday.

especially now when the price is expected to go towards new ATH.
I'm always expecting that Cheesy Still, at the previous new ATHs this year, fees were nowhere near what they were at the end of 2017. If I zoom out on Johoe's Bitcoin Mempool site, there was a massive amount of blue (low-fee) transactions unconfirmed around April this year, while 4 years ago there were many high-fee transactions unconfirmed for a very long time. I remember paying around $25 (much more than 0.001BTC) back then for a small transaction (one input, one output).
It probably helps that exchanges like Binance trick people into withdrawing their own centralized shitcoin tokens instead of real Bitcoin. Those suckers keep fees low by accepting basically counterfeit Bitcoin.
And maybe Bitcoin users (and companies) in general have become smarter selecting fees.

When you report, won't the original copy be sent to the mods?
I don't think so.

So even if that guy edits his post, there's no escaping.

This QR code idea intrigues me and yet somehow I'm worried that if I tried to make some huge qr codes to backup my 100kb file (or 90ish), I might run into problems actually being able to scan it back in. You know, my android phone can't handle those because I tested it.
I tested this large QR-code with my old QR code reader (it seems to have disappeared from the Play Store), and it worked fine.
