You can't mine Bitcoin with GPU anymore, it can be done only via ASICs.


Even if you want to mine altcoins which has any worth it can't be done with your GPU hash power you need multiple powerful GPUs which is decent enough to mine coin like ETC or something and I used some mining calculator which gave me an estimation of GT 1030 can generate more than 2.22 USD monthly income with a 8.67 MH/s hashrate on the RVN - KawPow (NBMiner) algorithm.

This means better not to mine at all with your machine, or you are just risking your hardware to wreck merely for nothing.

No one can mine ETH anymore since  Ethereum (ETH) has transitioned from a Proof of Work (PoW) to a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism as a part of its Ethereum 2.0 upgrade which happened in 2022.


Mining BTC with GPU and CPU years are over a very long time and even with ASICs its highly difficult to make profits with the current mining difficulty of the BTC network.

First of all, not every newbie is a newcomer to bitcointalk most of the newbie accounts are created with the purpose of asking silly questions over and over again just to troll everyone around. And people who are experienced enough to understand these trolls pick them up and give the best possible experience for them which they deserve to have.

Secondly, this is an online forum so if you are coming here then obviously you need to get thicker skin that is the only to accept the criticism about them and grow up beyond that.

If you are someone who accumulated so many assets then you should be prepared for your family can access it if you are no more no matter if you are young or old because life is unpredictable so never take a chance with that.

Using Locktime for inheritance planning, backups or gifts is one of the best possible ways to lock your assets for your kids for certain years and they will have access to it. But I just want to remind you that never forget your health and life insurance which will act as an emergency fund for your family even if it makes them a fortune for their remaining life.

Honestly, it is one hell of a fear that every man holds with them so never forget about leaving what you made in your life to your family, and hopefully it's not a debt.

First of all, make sure that your wallet has a balance by visiting any of the Bitcoin blockchain explorers. Bitcoin core is supposed to show the balance but you are saying the balance is not available.

Wallet recovery services are the only legitimate recovery services available as far as I know so try contacting them. But if he might have any idea about few words in the password then he might able to crack it on his own with tool such btcrecover .

Validation and confirmation are different, so what miners do is confirmation and that is what you are talking about as well so let's leave the validation part here.

Miners can pick a transaction even with a lower fee over a higher fee transaction but rationally they are going to pick the TXs which will incentivize them more which means the higher the TX fee the TX will be confirmed sooner.

But TXs are confirmed in blocks so it can contain TX with 200sat/vbyte as well as 20sat/vbyte still the TX will get confirmed at the same time. So it depends on which block the TX is included in and when they are mined.

No, I didn't say they owe an explanation but their name came up and the local board is involved with the accusation of something suspicious from the same local board if they keep their mouth shut then it will feel like there is something as Op said, isn't it?

I don't really know what is the point of this thread!

And it's not that hard to find too...

Have those mentioned users ever made any comments about the discussion going about them?

Possibly they can give the best possible explanation for this than others or members from the local boards at least. Or else there is something as OP accused.

It means the application has bugs, make sure its the updated version.

And follow this

1. Choose "Create a new wallet" and click "Next."
2. Select "standard wallet option" and click "Next".
3. Choose "I already have a seed".
Then try entering your seed words now it should work, and if still now try contacting devs and report this bug.


Wallet encryption has nothing to do with the seeds, it just encrypts the wallet file so if someone tries to copy the wallet file from Electrum and use it on another device then it won't be recognized.

You can import the wallet via seeds or the address via private keys to any other wallet and device no matter if you encrypt the seeds while you generating them.

Never forget to read the title buddy!

It's not 2FA authentication, it's authorization required when you log in from a new device.

So in both scenarios, you didn't get the authorization email which means you are using the wrong email for logging in.

or something like this Problem with blockchain.com (I not receive anymore authorization email).

Just another layer of security that is good on any platform, by this method you are opting out both fingerprint and PIN/password to enter into your wallet instead of one.

This is not going to protect against malware attacks or anything like that but surely it is good to tackle in a situation when someone is trying to access your phone physically without your permission.

If you can see webcam visuals when you click the camera icon on Sparrow Wallet then most likely your webcam is not good enough to capture the QR codes. And you mentioned it as an old laptop then the webcam resolution will be a lot less and even it's not great in new-gen laptops.

You can add an external webcam if a QR code scan is your primary need just go with the copy-paste method (which I always prefer).

Exchange accounts are locked/terminated for various reasons but if any exchange is done without valid reason then the exchange's reputation is at stake here. As far as I know, arbitrage trading is not against their terms as I said previously so even if they prove that you are doing it still it can't be a reason to serve to lock your funds.

In my country, I need to report gambling winning as part of my income and about 10% has to be paid as tax but I don't remember the exact figure since I haven't gambled on fiat-based casinos for very long where the winnings will be credited after deducting the tax amounts.
I report the gambling income in the form of capital gains cause that is the highest slab and I am not in much profit so I won't be paying much difference in the fiat value but for a high roller, they need to report depending on their country policies and find loopholes such as exceptions to avoid paying huge lump as tax.

You can earn a few sats with a decent amount of BTC via routing the payment but when you calculate the running cost probably it will end up as a net loss, so don't set up LN with the intention of making money.

Read this part below to get an idea of how much you can actually make via the LN node.

Raspiblitz may work for you if you are looking for a more automated version of Raspibolt and are ready to spend around $400 for the entire setup.

https://github.com/raspiblitz/raspiblitz : build your own Lightning & Bitcoin Full node on a RaspberryPi with an optional Display.

There are a lot of option that depends on the purpose of your node, and how much amount you can ready to spend, but I want to remind you that running an LN node for profit making is a bad idea, and already threads regarding this are available on bitcointalk in case if you want to refer.

Also take a look at this : All Lightning Network Threads In One Place

It has been almost 2 years since they mentioned "No ETA, but it is on the TODO list." on their GitHub page. Also, there is no relevant information regarding taproot updates on Electrum on any other forums but they won't take too long since other wallets are already supporting single sig taproot addresses so it's almost time to see them on Electrum too.

Also, campaign managers should review the overall post quality of the member if they are accepting in their campaign, not simply based on how much merits they earned in the last 120 days or so which will bring an end to this account farming via local boards where merits are generously shared.

The SMAS list you shared is old compared to this : [SMAS] My list of users banned from sig. campaigns

But you can find the compiled individual SMAS list from every campaign manager from Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers

The other person is 2Pizza410000BTC. It took a few pages of browsing and matching the merit history from the screenshot shared by OP.

---

It is probably due to the low number of active members in both local boards so the one who has merits is trying to encourage them to keep the upcoming members active and it's usually the case when the active members are fewer.

Every local board has different source merit allocations from merit sources and every source has different meriting habits so you cann't get the same kind of treatment from your local board.

I can't able to read those posts to determine the quality of posts but it's true that the members received most of the merits from local boards while they equally posted the number of posts in global sections.

1. Yes,
2. Electrum supports only bitcoin and there is a separate Electrum wallet for LTC but as I said it is a separate wallet.
3. Compatible with most but taproot update is the long overdue in electrum, hopefully we may see taproot support from electrum soon.

Unstoppable wallet is a good choice for mobile which is available in both IOS and Android but it's not available for PC and also its not support many coins like coinomi yet.

Currently, it supports a total of 116 assets including tokens: https://www.cryptowisser.com/wallet/unstoppable-wallet/coins?page=1

For PC users who store a lot of shitcoins and don't want to dump them in the hardware wallet then Coinomi is still their option which is a closed source but supports more coins and tokens compared to any other multi-crypto wallet.
