I actually did some job regarding the documentation and design of such forum which you could see here:

2  Other / Off-topic / ECDSA Encrypt/Decrypt/Sign tool with GUI? on: May 14, 2023, 10:07:26 AM
Is there any secure GUI tool which i can use to Encrypt/Decrypt and sign message or files with my ECDSA Secp256k1 private key?
GUI could be binary file, or local HTML file.

Think of Alice had become a cyberpunk Smiley . She has a private key:

Code:
-----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----
MHQCAQEEIEYgBlyQVsH7SpHUH7x4RErcckhu7ary/JjhP72Nk19EoAcGBSuBBAAK
oUQDQgAE1MtHIxlGP5TARqBccrddNm1FnYH1Fp+onETz5KbXPSeG5FGwKMUXGfAm
SZJq2gENULFewwymt+9bTXkjBZhh8A==
-----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----

and public key

Code:
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
MFYwEAYHKoZIzj0CAQYFK4EEAAoDQgAE1MtHIxlGP5TARqBccrddNm1FnYH1Fp+o
nETz5KbXPSeG5FGwKMUXGfAmSZJq2gENULFewwymt+9bTXkjBZhh8A==
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----

she gives her public key to Bob, is there any simple GUI tool for Alice to sign a file and sen then signature to Bob by email?
Bob also needs same tool to simply verify the file signature with Alice pub key.

or maybe she want to simply encrypt a plane text message with her private key and send it to bob by email, than bob decrypt it with Alice pub key.

is there any simple GUI (binary or better HTML) tool for this? Also encrypt, decrypt capability would be appreciated.
Thanks
3  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Use same private key for multiple bitcoin-based coins, good idea? on: September 03, 2022, 08:57:53 AM
is it a good idea to use same private key for keeping Bitcoin and Litecoin and Dodgecoin?
I do not mean seed phrase, but a raw 32 byte random private key.
Private key will give us a public key, that can be used to generate address for BTC, LTC and Dodgecoin. I dont think there be any problem with this, what you think?
4  Economy / Exchanges / High withdraw fee rates by binance etc, Why?! on: July 30, 2022, 05:59:36 AM
Hi,
trading websites like binance, do charge user for 0.0005 BTC (half of mili BTC or 0.5 mBTC) when user is going to withdraw.
Many other websites are likely charging users for same fee. What is the reason?
Sites like binance do pay users in groups, I mean they pay to 10 users in same transaction. this will also reduce fee payed by binance.
So why binance (or other sites) do charge user for $10 as fee when they do pay $1-2 as fee?
For example even if binance pay $1 as fee to the bitcoin network, then it will charge user for $10 (0.5mBTC).
I think binance do not likes that users withdraw their BTCs because maybe they do not have enough BTC in their wallets! Smiley
5  Economy / Goods / Buy from IRAN worldwide - biggest online local markets - Man in middle service on: May 29, 2022, 06:42:40 AM
In the name of God
--------------

Terms:

- Escrow accepted
- Maximum $200 for each order (with escrow). For more need to negotiate...
- Shipping is on you
-------------

Rates (Commission):

X = Total price (include item price + domestic shipping + international shipping)

With Escrow:
         X from $0 to $50 : $1 + %10
         X from $51 to $200 : $1 + %6

     for example:
         $70 total price, Commission will be $8
         $110 total price, Commission will be $7.6

Without Escrow:
         X from $0 upward : %3 (only item price is accounted, no commission on international shipping price)

-------------

Rate for International shipping:
  Actually varies based on country and post service, Here is some example for EMS shipping:
   Package with weight of 2kg to to >> China: $53, Italy: $53, Canada: $65, Japan: $65, ask for other locations

-------------

Important Note: Before each order and payment, I should ask the post office in order to be sure your package is deliverable.
Sometimes it is illegal to post some items to specific countries. For example Australia bans all incoming beans, and so on.

-------------

I do live in Iran. As in 80s decade in many western countries, the digital marketing platforms are just getting more and more popular here in Iran. You can buy goods even from most far villages in the country and receive goods within few days. recently new platforms started to work which are a combination of "Social Media Network" and "Retail Store" - similar to ebay or etsy or even Chinese taobao- where converted to giant retail stores!

Iran have some famous Souvenirs (local goods) which are among bests in the world:



Stone Handcrafts
Firoozeh Kubi, etc...
Metal Handcrafts
Enamelwork (Minakari), engravings (Ghalamzani), Rings
Paitings
Persian Miniarute (مینیاتور), Rings
Caret And Rugs
Persian Carpet , Kilim, Ziloo, Wall hanging mini carpet etc.
Food related (healthy food)
Saffron, Pistachio, herbs, etc

links for more reading on internet:

http://persianfoodtours.com/persian-food-souvenir/

There are several retail stores working on Iranian local goods mainly:

http://basalam.com
http://digikala.com
http://keshmoon.com (quality saffron)

These are top retail websites in Iran, you can browse them with Chrome and use translate feature to translate to your language


Payment
[/glow]

Bitcoin escrow accepted. After you escrow bitcoin, i'll buy goods (from different sites different sellers) and pack them into one package and send to your address all around the world!

I do get a 20% commission - minimum $10, so you do pay for goods itself, domestic shipping (~$1 per shipping) from seller warehouse to our warehouse in Iran, international post shipping ($20-$50 per kg for express shipping) and finally some custom clearance which you (probably) should pay to your local post officer.

Examples
[/glow]

for example you need these items:

5 grams of grade A saffron~1810000 IRR = $7 !
500gr grade A Persian green Cumin~710e3 IRR = $3
100gr grade A Persian black Cumin~410e3 IRR = $1.5
1kg grade A Persian Barberries~1.663 IRR = $3
Total$14.5

The goods price is $14.5 until here,
Goods are from 4 different sellers, so $1/package or less is usually for domestic shipping. So $4 for domestic shipping
Total Weight equals to : 5gr+500gr+100gr+1kg = 1605gr. the international post do round it up so will charge for 2kg, for example if you want it in Germany, we must ship the 2kg package from Iran to Germany, currently there two different channels:
1- Economic post: $45 for 2kg package from Iran to Germany (2-3 week)
2- Express post: $65 for 2kg package from Iran to Germany (1-2 week)

for example you need economic post, so the total amount you should pay is:
$14.5 (goods price) + $10 (my commission) + $4 (domestic shipping) + $45 (international shipping) = $71

If you want to buy same items from Amazon for example you should pay:

5gr saffron$25
1kg high quality barberries$24
450gr green cumin$18.5
300gr caraway$10
Total$77

The difference between amazon goods and Iran local goods is:
Amazon.com's packaging are better
Iranian local goods quality are better than amazon's

So if you concern for quality more than packaging, then you can buy from basalam for lower price and higher goods quality.
