8961  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Brave Browser - Why it doesn't care about your privacy on: December 03, 2019, 06:51:34 PM
My theory to this is brave browser was made to defeat google chrome, brave browser was good at this moment and continuously upgrading its performances.

I think it is very hard to defeat chrome, as it come pre installed in all androids devices, and it integrates nicely with google products. So, most users will automatically chose chrome.

Brave is chromium based, so it is somehow closer to chrome than to firefox.

However, it focus in firefox market: Both firefox and brave focus in a " free web" and "privacy" propaganda (although firefox is performing better in that, imo)

Libra is a mass surveillance coin, created by a mass surveillance company that makes billions of dollars each year by collecting your personal and private data and selling to other companies.

That´s the cost of your "enpowerment", be monitored all the time. Wink

Ok so if I send 0.12 btc will the receiver see that I actually sends 0.2 btc?

Exactly.
He will be able to see all past transactions you did from that address.

Go to blockchain.com and insert your address there. He will be able to see that.
https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/***your_address**

He will be able to see the transaction of the person (or exchange) who gave you the 0.2 BTC, all the past transactions of that person/exchange address, and your address balance.

This is why it is very important to always generate a new address when receiving funds.

Not everyone will know that your new address (the change address) is yours, so it will be slightly more private than your old one

Today at 17:14:23: 2 from (Bitcoin Forum) for (Deleted/Off-limits/Ignored)
Today at 16:46:30: 1 from (Bitcoin Forum) for (Deleted/Off-limits/Ignored)


It is strange that the topic is deleted or offlimit. I thought it may be a topic which was moved to a moderator board, which I don't have access?

Is PayPal involved in this somehow?

PayPal has a lot of money and influence, and it is one of the services most threatened by bitcoin.
I believe they will try to close all exchange related services, or at least remove their support.
8968  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Output amount is wrong on: December 02, 2019, 03:22:27 PM
This happens because you cannot split an input. Everything is correct don't worry.

You probably have one input of 0.2 btc. You cannot just send 0.19 or 0.12. you have to send 0.2 and the remaining (the change) will go back to you in a new generated address, called change address. The change address is yours , and it is a newly generated input for you to spend when you want.

An input is generated each time you receive a transaction. If you received 0.1 and then 0.1 again you will have 2 inputs of 0.1 each. You cannot split them, only by making a new transaction and a change address.

Armory is  a good wallet, but there are many better  imo. Electrum.org is a better one and electrum allows you to see each input you have (it is called Coin, in coin tab)
8969  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Did I Save My Bitcoins in November? on: December 02, 2019, 03:16:43 PM
Tô "save " your bitcoins you just need to hold them.

It doesn't matter the usd price. 1 btc = 1 btc

However, you are trying to profit in the bear market. Good luck. , You will need it.
8970  Other / Archival / Re: Need your advice and ideas for making money online and get out of a hellhole on: December 01, 2019, 09:42:52 PM
Now that I'm right at the middle of my 20's, I look back and see that I've just wasted my life so far being forced in a toxic environment, no good universities and education, no job, no money, no professional skills, no relationships, no fun, no parties, lived like an isolated old man in his late 80's. There's terrible compulsory military service for two years of slavery awaiting me if I continue to stay here. You can read the following to learn a little more about the conditions.

Wanna make money online? Wanna get a better life? Stop playing the victim and fight for what you want!

Iran is fuked up. Ok man. Everywhere else outside a few countries in Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, Japan and southeast asia are fuked as well.

I live in Brazil and we have the same situation you describe.

So, what do you want? Education, right?
Go and study on your own. You can study in the internet. learn to code, whatever...

I've thought about almost everything, from "inventing" a new cryptocurrency to even asking advice from the dark/deep web guys, or making an online platform, maybe a casino or a betting website or anything... but I don't know what exactly would bring me success.  Huh
What are your ideas to make money online and in cryptos from Iran anonymously?

Bounties, scamming people by creating your own shittoken... that's not going to solve your life problems.
You have to learn and really study a lot to be able to make something valuable. That's the only way, there are no shotcuts in life.

What do you expect here? Someone to say "ah, just follow this guide, create your own crypto, pre mine 100000000000 and sell each for a thousand dollars"
8971  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: How important is it to generate private keys from Ledger wallets? on: December 01, 2019, 06:25:36 PM

Let's say we have a trillion planet Earths. On each Earth, there are a trillion people. Each person has a trillion computers. Each computer generates a trillion keys a second. All these computers have been creating a trillion keys per second since the birth of the universe 13.7 billion years ago. 10^12 * 10^12 * 10^12 * 10^12 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 13.7 * 10^9 = 4.3*10^65. This means thay they would have so far generated approximately 0.0000000004% of all private keys.
Is this really correct?

This is very impressive, and it really shows how our human mind can't understand what big numbers really and how they work.

Now, you don't actually need to "know" your private keys in the sense of having them written out in plain text and saved somewhere. You simply need to be the only person who can access them. Just in the same way, you don't actually need to "know" your seed in the sense of having it memorized, as long as you are the only person who knows how to retrieve it from your back ups.

It is important to note that if are you holding significant amount you should really do that, hardware wallet.
However, if you have a family it is important to allow a familiar member know how to retrieve them as well, especially if you have kids.
Those coins might be worth a lot more in the future
8972  Other / Archival / Re: ledger nano x - not recognized by Electrum on Windows on: December 01, 2019, 01:00:45 AM
Please read this guide
https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005161925-Set-up-and-use-Electrum

Important points imo:

Uninstall Electrum and download again from Electrum.org (I prefer the standalone version)

Quote
Connect and unlock your Ledger device.
Open the Bitcoin app.(on device)
Launch Electrum from your applications folder. The install wizard opens.
Leave the default wallet name and click Next.
Select Standard wallet and click Next.
At the keystore screen, select Use a hardware device and click Next.
Select your Ledger device and click next.
Choose the right derivation path for your account and click Next:

Did you do that all? What is the point where you can move further?
8973  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor accounts on: December 01, 2019, 12:17:19 AM
No, the whole point of using accounts is that you don't expose your addresses from other accounts. You might accidentally mix some coins (or addresses) from the same account since the official web interface doesn't support coin control. The receipent can only see the address from which they received coins. They can't learn the account's name and all of its addresses unless you use all of them in one transaction.

So there is a privacy layer after all. However only if you don't sign in to Dropbox (I didn't know there was this Dropbox option)
This is interesting, to avoid mixing coins. Some of your coins may be attached to your Bitcointalk account, some others to your real I'd (using verified exchanges accounts). So you could avoid mixing them, for example
8974  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor Black Friday deals from 26 Nov - 3 Dec 2019 on: December 01, 2019, 12:08:19 AM
Is the Nano X worth upgrading from the S?

I have the S atm and hold a load of coins ALL over the place, erc20 tokens etc...

I have ledger S and I see no reason to upgrade.
Unless you are rich and you want to spend that money only to have a more beautiful wallet...

Because the only advantage I see is to  be able to have more installed coins at the same time
 Which is not a big deal, and definitely is not worth spending coins just to have more apps installed (which can be installed/uninstalled almost instantaneously)


However, if you have only many erc20 and btc and one more blockchain, you can have all installed at once.
8975  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor accounts on: November 30, 2019, 05:39:15 PM
Don't worry about those account names or label

All you need is your seed. Even your trezor device can be lost, and with your seed you can recover all your funds in Electrum or any other wallet.

Those account name's are just for your organization and software interface, they don't affect anything in the blockchain or in your balance
8976  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A question about wallets (BTC and USDT) on: November 30, 2019, 03:46:00 PM
A hardware wallet is the best option
If you want to store all your coins you mentioned I would use coiniomi (mobile version, not desktop). It is not the best wallet, but you said you don't want a hardware wallet..

I would certainly buy ledger or trwzor as they can hold all your coins as well.
8977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who has entered a shop (non-BTC accepting) and asked if they will accept Crypto? on: November 29, 2019, 10:42:35 PM
Anything abroad that won't do cards is just flat out painful so that would be the most likely scenario.

The problem with cards in developing countries are the taxes and fees and the exchange rate.

In Brazil the usd/brl pair is very volatile (about 20-30% this year only), and you won't know which rate you are paying until you pay the credit card invoice, which is available only in about 30 after you use the card.

Additionally, there are 1-5% card fees and 6% taxes
So, it is way better to just bitcoin anywhere if you are Brazilian or if you live in any other fuked country
8978  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who has entered a shop (non-BTC accepting) and asked if they will accept Crypto? on: November 29, 2019, 05:58:19 PM
I personally tried asking for BTC payments on certain hotels that I've stayed throughout the years. The conversation just usually goes like:

I thought it was pretty damn cool that I even had a chat with some real-life human beings about crypto.  I wouldn't have paid for my food with bitcoin anyway but I was shocked to see that bitcoin symbol on a menu for a restaurant so close to me.

Personally I don't think it is so important for now to pay with bitcoin in local stores. I would certainly ofc, especially when traveling abroad (using other fiat currency).

But for internet payments I think it is the safer and best method. After all, that is an internet money.

Few days ago I bought some games in Steam and a product from Microsoft. I missed the bitcoin payment option, for many reasons:
- safety (as I never like to insert my credit card details online)
- I was paying using another fiat currency, so I lose some money in taxes and fees
- I would like to spend some of my bitcoins lol
8979  Local / Português (Portuguese) / Re: Ajuda com BLOCKCHAIN.INFO meus btc estão sumindo! on: November 29, 2019, 05:38:31 PM
Também acho, o problema é sempre guardar tanta senha. Com o tempo a memória vai ficando mais fraca e as pessoas passam a esquecer onde guardou as coisas. Eu mesmo tenho um monte de wallets que eu nem me lembro mais a senha.  Shocked Shocked Shocked

Na verdade essa senha não é muito importante.
O que importa mesmo é a seed. Que deve ser guardada em papel e em local seguro. Com a seed você pode recuperar seus bitcoins em qualquer lugar.

Acho que a blockchain.com não é a pior wallet do mundo, e pode ser usada pra pequenos valores e como uma primeira experiência para novatos.
Não é mais perigoso do que ter uma carteira com alguns reais no seu bolso. Podem te roubar, ainda mais no Brasil, mas pra pequenos valores vale a conveniência. Pessoalmente eu prefiro uma mobile wallet do que a blockchain.com
8980  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Campaign Management Website for Bitcointalk Signature Campaigns (idea) on: November 29, 2019, 11:28:37 AM
As the title mentions, I want to create a website for companies to create their signature campaigns easily without an escrow or third

-snip-
* Automatic btc payment to the users (if enabled)


-snip-
And I will charge a small commission to make it sustainable and even profitable. What do you think?

Without or by you monopolizing escrow? Wink
 will you be escrowing all the funds? How does it works?

I think your idea may be good. Campaign participants opinions don't have much weight here, you need to see managers opinions

On list Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers you have listed all managers and his SMAS/ban lists, but I can't find your name, so we can't know your criteria about participants quality.

Sadly participants quality is still not  considered in most campaigns, specially in the oldest ones.
You can still see many spammers and users with less than 30 erned merits in 2 years receiving lots of money in brc through campaigns.
Unless companies really decide that post quality is important and force managers to accept only high quality posters we will be seeing this..
