2541  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Doing some work for Saxydev, Earned $90 but Never received the Payment.  on: February 13, 2023, 04:48:26 PM
Payment was promised will be send on 25th January.
If he didn't send the payment like promised until 25th January than he broke a deal again, and he is known for doing that before  Tongue

his financial department will send the money on 25th January.
Oh common please, this guy is lying that he owns some kind of company and people who work for him.
His ''financial department'' couldn't send $90 without their master and commander, so they had to wait for him to return from Davos WEF meeting Cheesy

Saxydev claimed he already sent the payment on 3rd February
Even if with some miracle you receive this money in the end, it's a fact that he broke a deal and he was later with his payment.
Nobody should trust this liar anything because it's obvious he can't keep his word.
Oh yes, I almost forgot to say that I am still waiting to receive 0.1 BTC payment from him.

It's high time that we get an onion address, don't you think?
No, I don't think we should get onion address and retire current .org domain, because we probably can't have bot of them in the same time.
If you didn't notice Tor is currently under heavy ddos attacks and I think this can get much worse in future, that could makes bitcointalk forum almost unusable.
Using onion domain for forum could be used only as alternative in cases when main domain is not accessible or down.

I have one Ledger device, I want to input the private key not the phrase, is there a way to store the private key in the Ledger? I prefer to have a specific public address rather than a random one by phrase.
No you can't do that with hardware wallets, but you can generate seed phrase offline and import it in your ledger wallet, that way you don't have to trust device generating anything.
Note that private keys or seed phrases should never be generated online, and you can just send coins from your old address to new one.

I don't get it for leak things, does vanity is not safe? there is more than safe with phrase ?
Can you translate this in english language?
Both seed phrase and private keys can be safe or unsafe, depending only on you and if you are doing things correctly or not,

I am not know many about security or such program. how to proved the hardware is safe? 'cause I bought them from 3rd party. 
You can verify if your device is genuine by following instructions on ledger website, but it should be fine if device was new and unopened.
It's better to buy from official store or resellers, but you can always reset device and check inside for potential malicious changes.

2546  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: New HW wallet announced: COLDCARD Q1 on: February 12, 2023, 10:21:34 PM
It's $59 cheaper than passport HW wallet. But since Coinkite store mention "Batteries & USB cable not included", passport has better offer for those who consider cost of 3x AAA battery.
They started doing similar strategies like smartphones that don't ship chargers in package anymore, and I can't find information if microSD cards are included or not.
I don't know any other wallet that don't ship with USB cable and I hope this won't be the new trend, but I guess everyone has some old cable from smartphones.

For anyone who wants to sea size comparison of new Coldcard Q1 with older device and laptops, I found one interesting phone they posted.
This device is very large in size and I don't think this can fit any normal pockets... just look how tiny mk4 is below Cheesy



That annoys the crap out of me. You are taking pre-orders and have not finalized the design.
Someone asked for them to turn on device so we can see how screen will look.... they said it's impossible to turn it on right now, so it's basically just a dummy device riggt now.
I think adding additional closed source secure element is nothing more than security theater, and there is no real benefit compared to using only one secure element and main chip.

I think I chose the wrong set of words to portray the situation yesterday [my bad]... They might add "another" SE [from a different brand] on top of the existing ones that are present in Mk4, so it might end up having three SEs, but I also agree that they should've finalized the design first.
- They also mentioned the same thing (three SEs) "is also part of the process for Mk5".
So stupid... security circus that does (almost) nothing, except increasing production cost  Roll Eyes
2547  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Foundation Devices 'Passport Batch 2' hardware wallet review on: February 12, 2023, 10:06:38 PM
I'll make myself available over the next 24 hours to answer any questions you have about Passport! Thank you n0nce for the amazing detailed review. I'll also do my best to spend more time monitoring this thread and on BitcoinTalk in general.
Available how exactly?
I sent you personal message in forum more than two days ago and I still didn't receive any reply... maybe you didn't check your inbox Smiley

Like RickDeckard said before me, it would be a good idea to have official Passport distribution center in Europe, or have more options for resellers.
I can't wait to see what is your next device going to look like, as response to Cooldcard Q1 and many others upcoming hardware wallets like Keystone Gen2, new Trezor with secure element, 1inch wallet, and lets' not forget Block wallet by Jack Dorsey.

2548  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: OneKey Hardware Wallet HACKED! on: February 12, 2023, 09:55:32 PM
If possible passphrase is not stored on the wallet it is a good thing to go for while using a hardware wallet. That will give me the feeling of thinking that even if my seed phrase is known, I have different keys that the seed phrase can not generate without the passhrase.
It's true that passphrase is not stored anywhere on device but there are still methods to crack them especially if they are weak, so this is not a perfect protection.
Good thing about this bug is that it could be fixed with software patch, but it shows that it's not enough just to put one or two secure elements and consider device secure enough.
I am more interested to find what other closed source wallets had the same issue like this, Unciphered certainly knows about this but they can't release it in public because of NDA from manufacturer.
 
2549  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers on: February 11, 2023, 10:38:44 PM
Copper washers are also widely available and cheap, but I am sure everyone already have something from copper in their home, just make sure it's pure copper, not some of the cheaper alloys.
I checked local prices for copper washers and they are very cheap, but I would always choose stainless steel if I had the option to choose, because it has much higher melting point and I think it's more durable.
It would be interesting to see stress testing for copper washers, maybe that Italian member (can't remember his name) can do another round of testing soon with more acid and fire Smiley

Did you mes around with your smartphone, maybe installing some custom android rom, rooting phone and unlocking it?
If everything worked fine on different device you can use it again, or maybe try installing Electrum in android emulator for testing.

Maybe someone heard that PayPay was working on creating their own stable ccoin cryptocurrency for some time, but after recent regulations changes they decided to temporary stop with that activity.
They worked with Paxos to create this new ''stable'' Paypal coin, but Paxos is currently under investigation by NY financial regulators, maybe because Binance is involved in alll this.
I wouldn't connect any Bitcoin with PayPal account, and I wouldn't use any potential stable coin they may release in future.

They claim that Sinbad mixer is working very similar like previously sanctioned Blender, with only difference being use of script type bech32 instead of P2SH.
There are also claims of abusing coinjoins services like Wasabi and Whirlpool with purpose of fooling analytics.
More information and links of transactions can be found in public, but they basically say that Blender is now Sinbad:

This could be the first legit claim in this entire thread...
Or you have been smoking the same stuff like saxydev since you are the single person in the entire forum who is opposing my flag against this clown Tongue
He actually owed money to another member before (and one more now), so this is not first accusation against him, but I guess you didn't read everything carefully.

So, is there any certainty whether my work will be paid or not?
What work exactly you did for him?
Provide some evidence for your work, it would be interesting to see this, but if address you gave him is showing zero coins, than you should make scam accusation against him.
Even if he paid later than he promised means that he broke one more written agreement, that is reason for another flag against him.
He owes me 0.1 BTC, and I am still waiting to receive this payment from him.

This is not a bad idea to report members who are suspected for using AI to generate their posts, but we should be really careful with this before making a report.
I did detect few members recently who probably did something like this and I reported them to moderators, I consider this to be spam that is similar like plagiarism.
Maybe it's time for unofficial forum rules to be updated so that members who are doing repeated AI generated posts can be banned.

For the most part; these detectors are awful, and can't be relied on.
I think I tested all of them that exist so far, some are doing very good detection job and others can be improved.
It's enough for me if I notice something suspicious in several posts from specific member, and if several AI detectors confirm my suspicion with high percentage.

2557  Other / Meta / Re: What cause the donation closure thread of Yahoo on: February 10, 2023, 08:40:53 PM
Why would you see it? It was done in private, but they usually don't get contacted at all.
They either go straight in the trash without notification or the person gets a ban but I thought I'd do the nice thing and nicely ask him to remove it rather than trash the entire thing. It's really not done selectively. I think everyone should be treated the same and people shouldn't be begging for money here. I would urge people to report any begging threads and we'll probably stop a lot of scams from happening in the first place.
How would you call collecting donation to develop new forum software that was never delivered like promised?  Tongue
My point was that I saw so many obvious examples of people asking for donations in this forum and this was never considered a begging.
Now I understand if you want to make an example from yahoo, but I would like to hear opinion from theymos about it.

I don't think that thread should have been there but two wrongs don't make a right.
Dude, are you serious?!
This thread is still very much there as well as their ''donation'' address  Roll Eyes
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5124375.0

You could just have a friend or even an alt account make the suggestion.
So you are now saying that he used some of his alt accounts for this, and for what....to get around $100 worth of BTC in donations  Roll Eyes
I am really surprised and sad to hear all this from Global Moderator  Tongue
2558  Other / Meta / Re: What cause the donation closure thread of Yahoo on: February 10, 2023, 07:45:38 PM
Not all donations are begging. If someone wants to send you or me money as a donation then they can go to our profiles and do so. You can donate to anyone you want. What you can't do is create a thread to try solicit donations. If a thread contains a sob story and address urging others to donate then I'd say yes, that clarifies as a begging thread.
I never before saw moderators contacted someone to remove Bitcoin address from their topic, and this should not be done selectively like you are doing.
One more thread that comes to my mind was controversial Bitcointalk Charity topic, with three forum members being involved in abusing collected donations.
That topic was allowed to exists for months, and it's interesting that yahoo was one of the people who first talked about that issue, so I don't see him as a bitcoin beggar:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5376475.0

You can't really say I'm not asking for donations then literally ask for donations both in the thread and directing people to your profile. Whilst some people will or would have genuine reasons for asking for money and it may seem harsh not allowing them in certain instances I think a blanket ban on them is wise unless we're going to scrap the rule completely or open up some sort of donation board which I think would just be a messy nightmare.
I will repeat again, there was no bitcoin addresses when thread was created, he added it later after other members asked for that.
I don't know what I would do in similar situation, but fact is that most members supported yahoo and gave him bunch of merits.
Last time I checked he didn't receive  that much Bitcoin at all, fake Bruno scammer and Bitcointalk Charity trio received much much more.

PS
Your last quote was wrong, I didn't say that, it was post from Halab:

If you want to talk about your health problems... why not. If people are touched by your story, they will contact you by PM to ask you for an address to make a donation. That's all you can hope. Because if we open this Pandora's box, there will be abuse.
2559  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Secure Element in Hardware Wallets on: February 10, 2023, 07:24:07 PM
That's a good idea, I'll see if we can post a blog post summary of the Twitter Space.
Taking transcripts from that audio would be nice.
I listened your conversation today, and I didn't know stuff you guys said about Risc-V chips not being really open source.
I was really surprised that you didn't speak more about upcoming Trezor secure element TROPIC01.

Regarding OneKey, my understanding is this has nothing to do with the secure element, but instead an issue with their firmware – it seems that they didn't encrypt the traffic between the secure element and processor (lol). The 608a secure element by Microchip is not recommended for new designs, but I am unaware of any attack that doesn't involve a lab + lasers that could pull data out of it. We are of course switching to the 608b for next batch of Passports, but not due to any glaring vulnerability.
Yeah I know the problem was not directly related with secure element in OneKey but it's connection with microprocessor, but there was clear indications that other hardware wallets have similar issues.
As for ATECC608A secure element, it's clear that this is not secure enough chip anymore, their documentation proves that, and it was exploited before.
2560  Other / Meta / Re: What cause the donation closure thread of Yahoo on: February 10, 2023, 05:56:39 PM
OP why don't you use your main account, instead of creating new one just to ask a question about this?  Roll Eyes

It was essentially a begging thread which obviously isn't allowed and I think the no begging rule is one of the oldest here.
So now we are going to call any topic that has donation address a begging?!
I didn't see Yahoo beg at all in this thread, I even think he added donation addresses later when people started asking about that, he just said that everyone can find address in his profile (archive can confirm this).
This was certainly not the only thread that collected donations, I can clearly remember one topic from Bruno AKA Phinnaeus Gage and his medical condition, we all know outcome of that.
I can also find several donations campaigns for disasters and health issues, you can't call all donations begging, even Bitcointalk forum had donation address for years.

Is it only me who finds that this topic and the one(s) made by fishy001 yesterday seem too closely related?
I would not be surprised if it's the same person. (And, while multi accounts are allowed, ban evasion still isn't.)
Yeah I think it's him.
He tried to mask his usual writing style, but it's not working very well.
