Hi,

about three months ago I initiated a transfer from my account on blockchain dot com to my private wallet and since them it has been marked 'pending' and 'in review'.

Customer support is awful as they keep repeating they have limited information and the issue is with they specific department that will contact you when they get to your case.

They won't say what the problem is or anything relevant to the matter as they say customer support themselves don't know what the problem is, just please wait for the internal department contact.

Anybody knows what is going on with this company?

Can anybody please help me navigate this massive mess up on my part?

At this point I am thinking on taking legal action on them as they leave me no other choice.

Could anybody give any advice on what to do?

Thank you!

hi guys,

just wondering if you could criticize my setup from a security point of view.

I am using exodus for keeping multi assets, and electrum for btc.

I am planning on buying a hardware wallet, not sure which yet (maybe trezor?).

Cold storage isn't a possibility right now as all my machines are online.

Anything I could do better to improve my security?

Many thanks!

Hi all!

Sorry my previous post was probably too generic and rightfully got deleted.

Also because of the holiday family got in the way and I couldn't check on it or reply regularly.

I would like to get into mining but at the same time I really don't know where to start.

Your guides and advices gave me a wonderful place to start but at the same time the options are so many that if anyone could provide a little guidance it would be much appreciated. Here is where I got so far:

You told me no sense in mining Bitcoins or Altcoins if electricity is not cheap, well mine is about 0.06 Eur per kW/h, not sure weather I fall under the cheap spectrum but considering the power consumption and return of these SHA-256 I say I am on the expensive side.

Right now I have a 3.3 kW power available but that can be bumped up to 6.6 kW for almost same price of electricity. (I am not considering the 20% I should leave unused, these are total)

Also as advised I am looking at Asic machines.

But here is where I start getting lost again, if I look at your list of competitive hardware and cross reference it with the miners profitability I am not sure what to make of it. Probably because I am not sure what algorithm I should be mining for given the means at my disposal.

I am thinking I would like to set up and start mining in two to four months (given if my electricity cost make any sense to you).

The Antminer S17 (Pro and S17) are really appealing machines but once again if I look at the numbers they don't really make a lot of sense (considering the Antminer will stay competitive for how long? 6 to 9 months? More? I have no idea I just read a lot of post where you guys keep changing the machine to stay on top of the game).

Then I came across the STU-U6 for the X11 algorithm and by looking at its numbers, well, maybe this could be a viable investment for my situation. I see they will come out on July 2019 and that also falls in place with my time frame.

At the same time I keep looking at other machines but all I am considering is power consumption (given what I have available) and miner profitability. I am not sure how to look at the algorithm part for the big picture.

For example the Antminer Z11 or the A++ Zmaster mining the Equinash seem also interesting, but I don't really know what to think of them.

The obelisk SC1 Dual seems like a really cool machine but is it worth the big investment? (again different algorithm but to be honest low power consumption is what caught my eye ..)

Also in my previous post I asked about what the "Requires AB enabled pool" feature is but I honestly forgot the answer sorry, if you could tell me again that would be much appreciated.

A "bitpenny" for your thoughts  

Thanks again!!!









 

Hi,

I downloaded Electrum, but somehow I still fail to understand how it works.

This is just a scenario for me to better understand, I am probably compromising security by doing some/all of these (I guess):

I see the wallet file default_wallet in the folder on my computer;

If my ssd fails/lose pc/whatever my wallet is gone; right?

But if before I lose pc I make a copy of said file (default_wallet) do I still have my wallet?

What if my friend send me some coins AFTER my ssd failed and I only have the copied file, where do those money go? Into wallet? Into a lost never to be accessible again wallet? into nothing???

Many thanks!

Hi all,

I placed my first exchange request and I am not sure I have done something wrong or maybe picked the wrong exchange.

Anyone is familiar with 24crypto.exchange ?

On my part I did send the payment with a regular fee and it got stuck into a transaction spike for almost a day (not sure what the etiquette is for payment processing time).

On their part the contact form return an error so there is no way for me of getting in touch with them.

Also the term of service states that in case of failure of the exchange the client (me) is obliged to inform on it within 7 days. Well how am I suppose to inform them if I can't reach them!

Can anybody care to comment?

Many thanks!

Hi all,

can anybody shed some light on why this payment is taking so long?
