Wouldn't it make sense? https://www.presearch.io/ can't be worst than the current engine...
I would certainly like to switch from google search to some good alternative but I wouldn't waste time with presearch.
Last year I heard many people complained about presearch because they never paid them tokens they earned, and they always made up new reasons.
We also don't know what information they collect, and I am sure they are collecting everything.

Other alternatives I would consider instead are brave search, start page, or even better SearX.

Do you know any exchange that accept deposit from bitcoins native segwit address beside binance, coinbase, gemini, okex and kucoin?
There is one wiki page with list of exchanges, wallets and services that support Bech32 address format, that means Native Segwit.
This should be updated on regular basis, but it's better to confirm everything yourself:

I have transferred my GFAL from Mexc to my ledger and although it shows the number of coins transferred on ledger live, it doesn't give a $ value like with my other coins.
I don't even know what GFAL is, but I guess it's just another shitcoin.
Someone said that keeping shitcoins on harrdware wallet is the same like keeping bananas in safe deposit, they will soon be rotten and bad.

I can't find much info on the net regarding this, all I'm concerned with is knowing that the GFAL are on the ledger and I don't need to do anything else?  I'm awaiting delivery of a Tangem wallet and then I'll transfer the GFAL to that i just wanted to make sure I've not made an error anywhere?
You should first double check in explorer if your address is correct and what is the balance.
Getting new hardware wallet won't solve anything if you sent tokens to wrong address or if you made some other mistake.
1144  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: LNP2PBOT Non KYC btc lightning exchange on: October 09, 2023, 04:02:54 PM
Did someone try it ?
I didn't try this exchange simply because it uses telegram and I don't trust this app enough for this purpose.
Another thing I don't like is that everything is written in foreign language when I last checked it, I believe it was Spanish language.
I have nothing against other people using it, if it works for them.

@thebitcoinhole Seed Backup page is not working for me, while all other pages open fine.
Are you working on it and adding new stuff, or there is some other issue?

PS
I wanted to suggest few products for you to add, but I am not sure if you already have them listed.
1146  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Tor was not working on: October 06, 2023, 06:55:01 PM
It doesn't really matter how private your browser is when your OS is spying on everything you do. Using Tor is still better than using any other browser, but if you are using Windows 11 you should assume your privacy is roughly zero.
Or even below zero  Cheesy
There are few tweaks and modified settings you can use to reduce how much you are spied by microsoft, but it will never be good base for any privacy.
I don't see any good reason for anyone to use windows unless they are lazy, or they simply don't care about privacy.
And let's not even start talking how most malware are made for windows.

Personally I like Debian, but for brand new Linux users migrating from Windows, I always recommend Mint. It is far more newbie friendly than some other Linux distros, the GUI is the most similar to Windows, and there is an extensive online community which can assist with troubleshooting.
I tried most of the big Linux distributions including Debian, and problem I have with Debian is often outdated old software, even if you are using latest testing instead of stable.
Another problem is that my hardware was not detected so I had to install different version and do a lot of manual post installations and fixing.
Mint is fine and it usually works for most people, but I don't like Ubuntu base, so maybe it's not a bad idea for people to try Mint Debian release.

We would love to waive the card creation fees for a couple of trusted members, let me know if you can suggest any members (our maybe yourself).
Thanks, but no thanks.
I won't suggest anyone to test your product, this is your job, and I see to many risks to test it myself with my own money.
After talking with support on your website I noticed a lot of typing errors, looks like one man ''team'' doesn't speak English very well.   

Can you tell us where your financial technology company is registered and located exactly?

1148  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: List of Best Anonymous Instant Swap Exchanges in 2023 on: October 06, 2023, 04:49:37 PM
Here's a detailed list of instant swap exchanges that you can use today without any ID verification.
One of the best instant exchange I know is missing from your list and it's called eXch.
No need to register, no kyc, no use of third party exchanges, and they are rated very good on kycnot.me website.
Safest option is usually a bit slower with something like Bisq exchange, that is not exactly instant, but it support fiat currencies.

No information, sneak peek from PowerGlove about his plan and contribution for EpochTalk new forum software.
Yeah I was talking about him and I was secretly hoping he might pick up and speed up development of EpochTalk Wink
Even if that scenario never happens, he did a great job of fixing bugs and improving current software, but he can't turn grandma into young girl again.

imas neki stari smart phone? hard reset, sve izbrises s njega, instaliras npr. Trust Wallet, zapises seed phrase na paper, drzis ga offline osim kad ti treba. To je to.
Isto kao i hardware wallet.
Nije isto a ni blizu kao dobar hardware wallet, a i trust wallet je closed source sranje.
Malo bolja prihvatljiva opcija je Unstoppable wallet ili Airgap wallet, oboje imaju open source code, i Pixel sa grapheneOS.

Kako može biti anonimno ako se koristi preko Revoluta, PayPala i ostalih servisa koji imaju KYC?
Postoji i cash face-to-face meeting opcija.
Mislim da ćemo uskoro imati ponude za našu regiju.

u međuvremenu postali i open-source.
Peach Bitcoin app ima novi source code, ali nije open source već verifiable source code ili Common Clause:

This is really strange. I mean how?? Huh
Did you receive any PM in forum recently, and did you click any links?
Most likely you gave hackers your login details with some phishing page that looks almost identical to original bitcointalk forum.
Maybe you accessed forum from different device/location, and all it takes in few seconds for something like this to happen.
If you are using wind0ws, consider switching to Linux OS (Debian, Fedora, Mint) to reduce chances of getting malware.

PS
One good developer is working on adding 2FA on bitcointalk forum, so I would also use that in future when it get's introduced, as additional protection.
1153  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor New Hardware Wallet _____! on: October 05, 2023, 09:09:39 PM
A new model with their own secure element? Is that actually something they talked about before?
Yes, they have been working on that in last few years and I was talking about it for a while in forum.

I'm really wondering what are the important features they are missing, that would require them to release new hardware for them to implement. Any thoughts? aside from maybe support for more non-EVM crypto?
Secure Element made by Trezor with open source firmware.
I don't really care about other shitcoin support.

I'm seeing two new devices... Is it just me or does the other device look like a black version of Cryptosteel Capsule?
I don't know about that, only thing I know that device is black.  Wink
Trezor is probably going to release a bit more information about this devices in next few days.

I hope they call it the T800.  If so, I'll be back.
Sounds cool, but then it  needs T1000 bad cop enemy  Cool

1154  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Square is considering making a hardware wallet for Bitcoin on: October 05, 2023, 09:01:32 PM
we need more alternatives and more decentralization!
Really?!
How much new hardware wallets do we really need, because we already have around 100 different models I think  Tongue
Bitkey wallet has nothing to do with decentralization, on contrary, and I can't look positive on every new crap that comes out in market, that is not normal behavior.
1155  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Square is considering making a hardware wallet for Bitcoin on: October 05, 2023, 02:06:14 PM
My main concern is beta units seem to be going out, but source code is nowhere to be found.
I am sure they are cooking something behind the scenes  Cheesy
Not that I like anything about Bitkey, except maybe unusual hexagonal shape.

My main concern is that even if we get the source code, we will see that the device is an insecure privacy nightmare, due to the software and hardware architecture they chose: no screen, server-side verification of addresses, and more. There is no way that (open-source or not) code will solve these glaring issues.
Perfect scenario for disaster, but some people probably decided to blindly trust Jack and his team.  Tongue
1156  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Trezor Safe 3 New Hardware Wallet on: October 05, 2023, 02:02:05 PM
Trezor just released teaser post on twitter saying they are preparing a big reveal coming on October 12, and I am guessing this is their new model with their own secure element!

They even created countdown page on their website for new products, with this question: Ready for hassle-free crypto security?
https://content.trezor.io/new-products

We can see glimpses of new device, and all we can see is black shiny color and totally new design.
I think that ledger and other hardware wallet manufacturers are probably sweating right now  Cheesy

Can someone guess the name for new Trezor device?

Spend Sats is a regularly updated database of online businesses accepting bitcoin

https://spend-sats.com
Is this website made and owned by you?

This category needs some updating.
I wouldn't really put everything under hardware wallet category, and some entries needs typing corrections.
You need to add letter L to Cryptostee, and move this to new Backup Seed category (same as Vulcan, Seedor, etc.).

1158  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: THEYA - new mobile multisig wallet on: October 04, 2023, 07:13:11 PM
today i reliably came across the new mobile Theya Bitcoin wallet on the internet.
Must be ''good'' wallet because it's backed by world-class ''investors''  Tongue



Another wrong claim on their website is that hardware wallets have single point of failure.
This is not true for all hardware wallets, since they can all use multisig setup, and some of them have Shamir's Secret Sharing scheme as alternative.
You don't even have to use hardware wallet to create multisig setup, and you certainly don't have to use wallets with closed source code like Theya.
1159  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Digital Yuan Hardware Wallets on: October 04, 2023, 06:35:02 PM
As a collector I’ve been trying to get my hands on their first issued blue wallet card. I recently came across an article and found out there’s a few now.
I personally wouldn't waste any money on this and support this terrible idea of having fake hardware wallets for CBDC junk  Tongue
Even if this is only meant to be a collectible item, this is indirectly supporting digital fiat currencies, CBDC and China, and I don't want to do that.
Now there was one interesting old card with screen that worked in western world few decades ago, this could be considered similar like hardware wallet, but I can't remember exact name for this card right now.

EDIT:
Found it!
It was Mondex smart card electronic cash system, that was later purchased by Mastercard.
Now this would be interesting collectibles item Wink
Familiar logo?

thebitcoinhole.com launched a new section on our website: "Seed Backup". We compare different seed phrase metal backup solutions, feature by feature. You can filter, sort and compare.
We have plans to add more solutions, this is just the start.
Nice work.
You are working quickly following my suggestions   Smiley

Good source of information for seed backup is Jameson Lopp with his website and github page.
He already has a page with detailed reviews, rating, prices and he personally stress tested this product with extreme heat, acid, etc.
You don't have to add all products listed there right away, but it would be good to check them out, and I am sure there are more of them he didn't test.
I had few more sources bookmarked, but I have to find them, and you can also add simple Stainless Seed washers that work great for this purpose and they are cheap.
