Since everything is working fine and it's back to normal, I don't see the point of keeping this thread open any longer. This hacking attack should be a good reminder to keep your mind sharp when dealing with crypto and double and triple check when you login and make transactions. If actively move your funds you have a higher chance to end up scammed. Stay safe and Hodl!

Are you sure it's a bitcoin wallet?

Mt GOX was one of the best back in the day. People trusted it a bit too much and everyone knows what happened. Binance got hacked as well but CZ made the right move to recover the funds, anyway you can't trust online wallet to "stake" your funds and keep them there. One thing is for sure, it makes the life easier for those who found out about crypto just now and want to dip their toes in tho the crypto sea, with other words t's good for mass adoption! I wonder when they will enforce the KYC thing.. it's still open up to 2 btc withdraw per day.. which is over 100K compared to the 2btc ~ 40K back in 2017.

Why would anyone will be willing to buy this low satoshi coin when it does not move much. You might get 10-20% profit from it in the entire alt season while investing in some NFT, Defi or BSC project can give you 100x returns in the same time frame.
The low satoshi coins are performing very well these days and siacoin is not different at all. A few days back the price of siacoin was only 20 sats while today its price is 41 sats. So its almost doubled our money if we have invested in it two months earlier. I was about to post the same, after the yesterdays move, siacoin made quite serious entry and showed everyone that this is not a dead project. It might not the be most pumped coin but those that are quickly pumped go after that quickly dumped too. We hit the bottom at 10 sats and bounced. It will bounce more if we break the 64-65 sat resistance then it will go further more, probably to 180 sats. In alt season everything is possible. Same applies for Verge... pumped the same time as the sia and it was nice. I've looked through the above thread again, seems I'm going to 'eat crow' on what I've been saying about Siacoin and Sia-Tech. (Tastes like Chicken!) Anyway, can someone catch me up on 'why' this is pumping? I seem to remember back about 1 year ago Siacoin was around 40 sats ...which I think it is now... so is it 'simply a matter of BTC/Crypto price rises and Siacoin ..simply 'maintaining' at the same BTC sat kinda number? Or can people point me to a thread or explain here...how 'exactly' you can setup a NODE and/or any other stuff via their decentralized network I'm behind on with the project. I still don't think that you can build a Siacoin storage node with even used parts and make enough to cover such. So anyway, enlighten me! Brad I guess you are referring to the setting up of Host Managers. There's a lot info to find on Internet about it like for instance this guide by the official Siacoin Medium account found here: https://medium.com/sia-central-blog/hosting-with-sia-host-manager-from-0-to-100-62e8eef1ae2aI'm not so much into the project but I keep finding interesting aspects of it. There's a good potential as Siacoin is the first p2p decentralized storage project ever created.

Sending you good vibes. Happy that you are recovering from whatever happened to you. We all have been trough rough times, I lost people close to mine the last few months. This shitty virus is changing the world as we know it, but we have ruined the whole world's ecosystem and we kind of deserve it. Take your time to recover, and don't worry I'm sure BestChange will accept you back in to the family, it's just a matter of time. I love your work man, but to be honest, in the beginning it was very difficult to understand what you were saying, now I see you English is also quite improved! Amazing Soon I'll be back busting spammers and I'll need a good hand for help. Stay safe, all of you... life can change forever in a blink of a eye...

Hello everyone, I had some difficulties with importing addresses, I did everything through blockchain.com wallet, I did the generation from https://gist.github.com/colindean/5239812. But when I made addresses from bitaddress.org everything was fine, what could be the problem?? And this with many addresses. Let me quote it first because so the images could be visible because the image hosting site you are using is awful, full of adds and actually not trustworthy. Next time you upload images, better use more reputable hosting sites like imgur or imgbb.

But there are two types of Rules in the forum: - Those concerning your way of expressing and experiencing things in the forum - The forum rules (the written ones), and you get penalties for braking those rules in terms of -temporary bans, signature bans or total bans/nukes.
- There are other type of rules (not written), which are more based on the Moral and Common Sense perception and are concerning the Trust, whether a user ( based on his activity in the forum) can be trusted or not. This is more of an reputation measure but you can get a penalties as well, like the negative trust feedback which does not affect the way you interact with the forum but reduce some of the possibilities you can find in the forum.

As long as the price of the Crypto goes up there always will be such stories as the above. Even if you are keeping a good level of protection there's always a weak link somewhere in the system, all you can do is to reduce the risk but you can barely make it 0. I've said that many times before, all those hacks have a really bad impact on the crypto world and dragging more and more people out of the community. We have to keep inform the newbies about the hidden traps in the crypto world.

Plagiarism here is "punished" quite strictly and the sentence is Ban! The ban is personal and you cannot create new accounts except to discuss your BAN and only in Meta. Every other case of creating accounts while banned is just "ban evading" and your account will be banned again. For every new ban evading case you'll have to pay so called "evil fee" to create a new account which will keep increasing if you get more BANz. So basically, plagiarism is not welcomed here. Newbies, read the RULEZ

I figure it out, forgot to post my update. When you send bitcoins to an address the remained amount is moved to a new address, which is not listed anywhere but it's includes in your total sum. I summed up the amount in all the addresses I had the "leftovers" moved to and they equal to this "mysterious" amount I was wondering where it came from. I don't know if there's a way to see those used addresses somehow in the Trezor Suite other than exporting all the transactions in the file. Cheers Side note: Using the XPUB as a watch only, does not include those hidden addresses, just those generated by the user to receive funds. You can still add those addresses manually if you take them from the list with all transactions. Curious why you are not using Electrum as NeuroticFish suggested above. I do that also. Many elect to use only the Trezor site but that is a glaring problem as you found out. Also, as a side note if privacy is important to you I would argue that Electrum servers are better than using only one server from the "mothership". Many users have no concerns/needs regarding being private and only want to know they are secure. In that case either option is very secure in tandem with a hardware wallet! It's just because I don't use my Trezor so often to connect it here and there. That's why I have the Sentinel , just to monitor the amount in the wallet and watch some other addresses. So basically my Trezor is connected as fewer times as possible to any Device with Internet. I update the firmware when is needed of course, and I'm thinking of buying one more Trezor wallet to have a backup device in case something happens with the one I have now. The way to export the transaction history in a spreadsheet is working good enough. Thanks guys for the help, at least I was happy surprised to see that I have more coins than I expected :-D

Bumping this one because it's still an issue. I try to send PMs with warnings to those who I see post questions about recovery, but that's not an efficient way. I suggest to every newbie who post a new thread in the Bitcoin Technical Support or the Wallet Software and Child Boards to get a warning to not disclose their pr.keys seeds, wallet files and avoid contacts in PMs just the way we get the warning for replying on old topic below.

Very amusing story. Here's a plot twist. The OP really has a wallet.dat to recover but there are no 8k btc lying there, maybe just a fraction of a coin. Offering 100 BTC guarantees that those who know how to help will definitely try their best to help the "poor" "rich" guy for the reward. At the end if they manage to recover the wallet file, they just get a ( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆)╭ ∩╮. End of the story. But here's the real plot twist, those "good guys" are soo good that they actually found the real owner of the mighty 8k address and showed the ( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆)╭ ∩╮ to the OP... Anyway... if the OP really needs to recover the file, just let us know the "real" story behind it. Meanwhile ...

It happens to me all the time, because I often respond to threads that are braking the rules (and then I report them :-D ). Someone has to inform the confused OP to read the rules after all. Those threads quite often get deleted after days and sometimes I forget that I post on such tread and then notice the decreased posts. If you notice a post decrease you can quick check the modlog.php to see which threads got deleted lately (im my case I check the report history), and you will find in which one you posted. Everything is documented, it's just takes time to find it.

All that happened until now is that Theymos lost the passion for the new software as the time pass by and he is in his 30s now and life is much different than the exiting 20s, he has a stable job witch takes all of his time and all the bitcoin work goes to the "hobby" time, which as we all know is less and less with every year until you retire. This is how I see it, he lost that "magic" and now it's just a thing quite far on the bottom of the "boring" ToDo list.
The forum (this one) seems more like responsibility to him than a fun project it used to be. I hope I'm wrong.

If you are posting here to ask when to buy or when to sell, then you are gambling, you are not trading. Don't start trading if you have no experience, better start investing.. Buy like 100$ of bitcoin every week/month or so no matter the price, you'll see the result in a couple of years. If you really want to trade, then you need to read a lot, and check charts and be prepared to take a lot of losses, that's how you learn.

So great to see a fellow Bulgarian in here, please visit our local thread as well, here. We need more active locals in this forum Back to the topic, this looks like a variation of the Rainbow chart from 2014. What you learn with bitcoin is that nothing is impossible, if you say to those people that mined back in 2011 that in 10 years the price will be over 50000$ per coin most of them would literally laugh in your face. With that being said, I don't think any of the predictions are unrealistic anymore. I'll be hodling more and more.
