Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Electrum backup question
|
on: April 04, 2023, 02:32:39 PM

I found some electrum wallet backups on a usb stick I found,I loaded them into electrum and it asks for the password
Password was set up by you in the past and its role is to protect your wallet file. You and others can only access private keys in that wallet file if you have the wallet password. I just want to see a balance
You can only see it if you successfully access that wallet file by your password or if you have its public address to check it on Bitcoin block explorers or import it to have a Watch-only wallet. It seems you don't have anything of such. if there is anything worth while in them then I can worry about finding my old password,I used the same password but with different numbers at the end so it is do-able but I don't want to start this process unless I know there is some btc in there.
Can I do this,see the balance of the backup somehow,I don't know the seed or the wallet number but can figure out the password if there something there,I know with unknown btc wallet backup's you load them into qt and can see the wallet number and balance but I can't seem to figure out how to do this with the electrum backup.
Only one option, brute force your wallet password but chance to succeed depends on complexity of your password and how many key characters you remember as well as computational power of your computer used for brute-forcing process. Are you passwords in the green?. If your password is in the green, chance to brute-force it is silm.

What you will consider is the bitcoin mining hash rate global distribution we are having, are they adequately enough to evenly satisfy the demands on bitcoin supply, are there currently challenges facing this global hash rate on bitcoin mining, how many countries and geopolitical locations are we having bitcoin miners, are they much enough to satisfy the demand on the required rate, many things had to be considered here before drawing into conclusion.
First, let's talk about your writing and grammar. Your English is not bad but you should improve it, especially grammar that temporarily damages what you want to express. I can guess what you want to discuss but improvement should be made. - Grammarly.com. I advise you to use this one together with Grammar book
Second, you misunderstand about how Bitcoin blockchain works, how difficulty is set up to retarget. Hashrate on the network can rise or fall but difficulty retarget algorithm is always in place to do its task every 2016 blocks (which is about 14 days). Bitcoin network's Total hash rate (TH/s). Choose all to see how it has risen with time. Then see how Network difficulty adjusted in history with some deep falls. If you want to discover some reasons behind this (like flood season in China mainland, mining crackdown), explorer in my topic A cool tool for Difficulty estimator is helpful for you to recognize that Bitcoin network can operate fine with either increasing or decreasing total hash rate.

Newcastle deserves to win this match. They played with such determination, which making them the superior team on the pitch. But, what impressed me a lot about their solid defense, that prevented the opposition from scoring any goals throughout the match. Man United's performance was quite underwhelming and did not live up to expectations. They were outplayed by Newcastle, and frankly, they deserved to lose by an even larger margin. Newcastle has now moved above Man United in the standings and claimed the third spot in the league.
Newcastle United deserves to win it with their performance. This defeat pulls Manchester United back to reality that they are not strong enough as clubs which can win 3 or 4 titles in a single seasons. They are very dominating teams in those seasons but it is rarely seen and those clubs have to sacrifice unimportant competitions. Manchester United are opposite as they are not too dominating strong but they did not sacrifice any competition. Weeks ago, they hope to win 5 titles and now they will have to face with reality that they even can lose a position in top four. Unlike Manchester United who played as if they were on training ground. There was no force. There was no motivation, that is not known for Manchester United. The attack was just like neutral or it never existed. The only person that spiced up Manchester United game was Anthony martial who entered somehow late because of his injury. I think Eric the Manchester United should not relax. He is having many under-performing players in the ditch such as Weghorst and Co.
Manchester United and Ten Hag will have difficult matches with Sevilla in Europa League too. In recent weeks, Manchester United look to touch their best form in this season after that they started to fall down. Will they be about to recover and avoid losing top four and failing in other competition. A few more matches will decide this season for Manchester United and hopefully they won't end this like Arsenal in the past season.

my old thread and taking a few pieces of advice. It is not worthless to be here at all. Is it better if you update those stats, charts in your old thread that is locked now? It would be more easily for readers to follow how you started with "Bitcoin accepted here" for your business and how it grew with time. If you continue this trend, you will create many topics like other topics for "6-month statistics", "1-year statistics" and "n-year statistics" for (Bitcoin payment success) like that user

It is an educational ICO from theymos to warn Bitcointalk members about scam ICOs especially at highest hype with ICO in 2017 and 2018. Many forum members actually felt great with this ICO at the first glance. Honestly I fell into this fooled ICO from theymos as well but later I realized that theymos did creatively educated us about scam projects and how scammers team will use influencers, too good to be true offers to scam investors. (It's guaranteed profit btw. And that's why all the Legendary members drive lambos ofc.)
Too good to be true If the forum is to launch a coin what will it be use for ??
It would be a mean to convert merit points to something you can sell on exchanges.

And shortly after there is a match between Manchester United and Newcastle. Newcastle are currently performing exceptionally well, creating great enthusiasm among the team's players. I am slightly concerned that Manchester United will lose this match. However, the match will be highly competitive and there is a possibility of a draw.
Newcastle United have grown a lot in the past season and this one. In this season, they impressively got very limited defeats in Premier League. They used to hold a third position very long time before losing it to Manchester United. I don't think they will have good chance to get that position back but top four is their target in this season. In this match Manchester United will not have Casemiro who is one of most important pieces in their squad. He cam le and made their midfield stronger which is a foundation for Manchester United success in this season. Without Casemiro, Manchester will have more issues with attacking from Newscatle United.

At the end of the day, the market will find the equilibrium and some miners will definitely stop mining due to mining costs, the question is whether the security of the network is good enough to sustain the network when that does happen. Considering how the BTC hashrate keeps rising though, I doubt we'll see that happen in the near future. CMIIW.
Miners who are newbies in Bitcoin mining industry and joined when price was around all time high and don't have enough (experience of course, I skip it) deep budget to cover cost in bearish months or worse borrow to buy ASICs, supplementary equipments to set up and operate their farms, will have to capitulate in a long bear market. It's what we saw some times in this industry, miner capitulation. Fortunately, it is one of good signals that bear market mostly touches its bottom range. Hash ribbons indicator

The forum said I am a suspected spammer but how can I be a spammer here when I am not even a member someone please help clarify this to me
You only turned to be a suspected spammer after you make a post and skip the captcha puzzle. because I cant see that in the bitcointalk rules I read.
It's good to read rules after registration but you did even better, read rules before register your account. Impressive enough.

When it comes to the Napoli - Milan draw I'm of course seeing Napoli as a big favourite just as most people do.
Because everything must be clear already about these two teams. Napoli are a really dominator team this season. They are not only dominating the Serie A but also they have been on an incredible run in the Champions League also.
Napoli are most favorite by many people as winner in Champions League quarter final against AC Milan. I agree with this opinion but I don't underestimate chance for AC Milan to make surprising results. They are big names in Champions League and they can start those matches with belief that they are stronger than Napoli in Champions League. But Milan aren't even near their level in terms of many ways. They are lacking at defending and scoring multiple goals both. When they have defensive problems they can't compensate for it by improving their finishing skills mostly. It is too hard to trust Milan in this draw as a result.
If AC Milan can control Napoli, prevent Napoli to have goals, I am sure a longer a match goes on, a higher chance for AC Milan to exploit Napoli defense and find a winning goal. Napoli will play as a stronger club and AC Milan will have an opposite approach and I think if AC Milan get conceded goals too early, they can be destroyed by Napoli. But me as same as others, think about a successful quarter final stage for Napoli.

If the casino says your documents are fake, then they likely are. If you have a problem with that, you can deal with the casino by yourself. All legit casinos are registered and licensed.
A good casino won't destroy their reputation by saying a valid document is fake. If they are good casino and they conclude submitted document is fake, it is fake actually. Chance to have mistake when handling cheating case / multiple account cases is even bigger than chance to see mistake when verifying KYC documents. Companies are intolerable with fake documents and they will go straight to ban account that violates such rules. Using fake documents can be start of something bad from a user and company usually does not like it.

|
on: March 31, 2023, 01:48:57 PM

Because when I look how easy to create a user script like this, then i would be easy also to add withdraw button; var reportLink = "<a href=" + postLink.prop("href").replace("index.php?", "index.php?action=reporttm;").replace(".msg", ";msg=") + "> Withdraw report to moderator</a>"; Report and Report Cancel are not on-chain So do you imagine what will happen if you report it, a moderator received it and is handling it but then you cancel that report. I will cause a conflict on the system and to resolve or prevent such conflict, it needs more time to code. It is not like set or cancel your trading orders, no profit no loss at all so I think we can take report less seriously about its stats (Good, Bad, Unhandled). And even if you cancel your report, a moderator who takes it will still be able to handle it on their own perspective. Moderators don't actually need to receive reports to handle posts in Bitcoin Talk. When they are informed about a post, a topic, it's their right to handle such.

For the time being I favour a non custodial wallet, pc and/or Phone based.
The reason being that SSD has a limited lifespan and I've lost a fair share of flashdrives due whatever mishap.
I understand why you worried but it sounds like you did not have a good backup approach. Backups of your wallet can be in many formats, digital, on physical things like paper, metal sheet/ plate etc. and your issue comes from digital backup on SSD that is risky as it is unrecoverable when a SSD is broken technically. You can do backups digitally but must have backups in other formats like paper, metal sheet/ plate like I said. It prevents issue you worried about. If SSD dies, you have others to use and you will be fine.
