I think for heirs a good option would be not to give them the private keys, but to tell them how to find.
Or maybe you could even split. 12 words to one, and 12 words to another. Or a passphrase with one, and the seed with another.

About hardware wallets... I can't understand how does anyone still hold more than 500 usd in any wallet that is not a hardware wallet.

Resilience is not antifragility.

According to google dictionary, it is close to robust:


And Robust is not antifragility.

Antifragility is something that gain from chaos and disorder. Robust or Resilient is something that isresistant or can quickly recover from chaos and disorder. Those concepts are very different.

Like the example I said. It is like putting a sticker in your bag saying "Please mishandle"


This idea comes from his experience as an option trader.

I will make an example:

Antifragility x World Crisis - An option trader can benefit from chaos. He maybe  shortening stocks in a crash and he will make 10000% in a crash. He gained from the disorder.

Resilient to World Crisis -  Buying bonds or gold with liquidity when stock market crashes. He is resistant to the crash, but didn't benefit from it.


Or an example closer to our reality:
Shortening bitcoin (antifragile to bitcoin crash) x Buying Tether (resilient to bitcoin crash)

This doesn't matter. 15 minutes is really a lot, but it makes no difference actually. You can just reload the page and you will receive an updated rate.

If  a crash within those 15minutes happens (which is highly unlikely), changelly will simple refuse to make your conversion. It is a centralized service, they will look at your rates and refund you.

So it really doesn't matter, and you will not make money by using a long fixed rate.

Just to be sure, do you want to withdrawal 40.000,00 or 40.000.000? Because 40.000.00 isn't a currency number. Is it 40 thousand or 40 million?

If you want to withdrawal 40.000,00 it is relatively easy. Just send 10-20k (1-2 btc) to good exchanges like Bitstamp, Binance, Kraken, Coinbase  and withdarawl it.

In binance you can withdrawal 20k(2btc) per day wihtout any KYC.

No.
labels are not registered in the blockchain, it is an internal label that affects only your wallet software. Probably if you reinstall your electrum, or recover it in another computer, the label will be lost, but funds will not be affected.

Maybe it is better for you to create a subreddit?
There are many big communities there, like /r/Cryptocurrency, r/ethtrader and so on.

You will have basically no audience in your new forum, and you are trying to advertise it in another forum (which is a bad idea, because nobody will move to another forum from here). You need to find other audience, not try to convert your audience from here, unless your forum has something better, like, better discussions, which is highly unlikely.

Take a look here. This forum is paying 0.00001 BTC for every post. How can you compete with that? Ofc that traffic will be artificial, and nobody will go there after this payment campaing is over.. unless people with good knowledge there.

Hey Robert,

I noticed that you are reposting a post from your blog, right?

http://roberto.info/2019/08/05/bitcoin-value-skin-in-the-game

It would be safer for you to add the reference in your article. You may be banned by that plagiarism bot. I know you are not plagiarizing anything, just posting your article in two different places. But try to explain that to a bot...

Nice article btw.

Personally, I believe there is no need to use lightning network for this.

You are going to sell a coffee for $1-3, whatever. You can accept zero confirmation payments.
Almost no one will try to double spend the coins, and a 51% attack to rob you $3 is impossible.

Just make a nice sign with Bitcoin Logo (Bitcoin Accepted here) and when someone transfer you and you see the transaction on the blockchain with zero confirmations, that is it. Paid. No worries.

If you look at https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/ you can see a totally different list of exchanges, by volume

1   BKEX   $1.853.079.348   
2   Binance   $1.377.939.113   
3   CoinTiger   $1.321.659.103
4   MXC      $1.318.079.985   
5   OKEx    $1.303.200.015

I believe those exchanges voluem data are mostly fake and manipulated.... there is no way to determine the real volume of all those exchanges..

Kucoin and Gate.io, from your list, and CoinTiger and MXC from CMC, do not have all that high volume, for sure.

It makes no sense to "diversify" in assets which are totally correlated. As mentioned above, you will only increase your risk and volatility.

Take a look at this graphic, from coinmarketcap, that I took from this website (https://smartereum.com/1887/ethereum-bitcoin-ripple-cardano-cryptocurrency-prices-going/)


If you look carefully, youi will see that the graphics are all the same, so it makes no sense to diversify here.

I can't believe that people fall in those scams. Have you ever seen in real life someone tell you "Transfer me some money in my bank account. I will transfer you back 2x."

Why would someone do this?
People are insane with bitcoin...

Bitcoin is not a tool to make people get rich quick. It is just a currency. It works as a currency.

I think you shouldn't mix fun and investment money.

If you are having fun betting in favor, or even against your team, that's ok. Take some money, mark it as fun money, and spend it there in gambling. If you make more money, buy some beers.

But do not gamble trying to make money. And if you do, do not bet in the team you love. This could have disastrous consequences, imo. Gamble money that you ca afford to lose, and have fun doing so.

As I said, I would try everything. Try that as well in both your wallets, but with 250 gap limit and then insert ismine.
And try with all addresses suggests here

AFAIK, the only possibility  here is that you somehow created a BIP39 seed with a different derivation path than the one you are using now.

So, back to derivation paths.
I would try everything if they were my coins.
 Personally, I prefer to use iancoleman BIP39 than electrum...

First of all, remove all  funds that you can from that wallet. Consider that seed exposed and do not use it ever again.


Go to https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ in your tails ultra secure computer in offline mode, insert your seed there. See how it works.
 It will generate all possible addresses on the bottom of the page. If you find your address there, just copy paste its private key to electrum and you are done.

However, do not search for your address there only using the default derivation path, as you know it won't work. You need to try different derivation paths.

Go to derivation path.
You can try the change addresses. Your transaction generated some Change of a few cents....  your coins may be in a change address. 
Set "Internal/External" to 1, so you can see the change addresses. Your address may be there.


Edit:
This 1AoG3kEHzXNfZft5xCmaH1T2UtWjsVvj5c was supposed to be the change address of your first transaction.
Can you find it in tails or in your windows electrum wallet using ismine(1AoG3kEHzXNfZft5xCmaH1T2UtWjsVvj5c )? you didn't use that address again.
This may be important. If you sent a small value of 0.00004438 to the tails wallet, and the big value as a change may have came back to your windows wallet.
Maybe your address 1LP6LQ726YJR9wkPLnHWJEfH335DDuiNtL is a change address of your original windows wallet, which sent the btc.

There may be a chance that your 2k USD never left your first wallet, in windows.
use ismine(1AoG3kEHzXNfZft5xCmaH1T2UtWjsVvj5c ) and ismine(1LP6LQ726YJR9wkPLnHWJEfH335DDuiNtL) in windows.

He is sure that the Seed is correct.
He is sure that it is not bip 39.
He is sure that he transferred to the right address.
He is sure that the coins are not there.

However, I cannot be 100% sure of any of this, because if all that information was correct, the coins would be there.

So I think it is a plausible strategy to consider that one (or more) of those affirmatives is not valid. Such as:

1- the seed may be incorrect.
2 -Or it may be bip39.
3- he may have transferred to another address due to malware or misclick.

As 1 and 3 we can't help him, I think that working in 2 may be effective.

Do not respond any PM. Have all discussions here, in this public topic.
Scammers will be asking for your Seed in private, or asking you to click on some phising link.
Be careful.


The only thing they can do with it is to check it in a block explorer.

Hello JetCash,
I recently discovered Nassim Taleb, the guy is a trader and a writer. He created the concept of Anti fragility.

The idea is like this. What is fragile? If you have a bag and you put a fragile sticker, it would be a bag that you shouldn't mishandle.
The opposite of fragility would not be robust (which is resistant to mishandle), but something that would  be benefited from a mishandle. Things that gain from disorder.

An antifragile bag would have a sticker "please mishandle".

This idea of antifragility comes from his trading experience, because he likes the idea to be benefited by volatility. In finances, people use to avoid volatility, as in life.
The anfragilility would be to prepare yourself, and be benefited from Dark Swan events, like a huge financial crisis (which is a high volatility event)


This video is not a typical financial conversation, but it goes deeper in a more physiological and philosophic level. I think it is worth watching at least the first few moments.

Guys, i made this same question in speculation board, but got no answer. Maybe someone here may be able to help me.


I would like to be able to count how many green and red candles are there in a period of time

For example, if I look at a graphic  BTC/USD since 2012 with 1 month candles. I would like to be able to automatically count how many are green and how many are red. Also with different periods with 1 day candles and so on.

Is there any free tool available that will allow me to do this?

Thanks

Yes. Your seed can create almost unlimited wallets with different derivation paths.

There are a few possibilities here.

1 - If you have the wrong seed, your funds are lost and there is nothing you can do.

2 - You have the right seed, but you could be looking in the wrong derivation path.

For example, you don't know if you have a BIP39 seed or a Electrum seed (this is why i told you to check and uncheck BIP39 when creating a new wallet, and try to find the address there).

Or you may have miscliked in the derivation path, or somehow created a new account without knowing it (this is why I told you to try a few m/44'/0'/1'/0).




The last digit is for change address, and your transaction didn't generate any change, so there is no need to try that, AFAIK.

Maybe this address is from that seed, however in a different derivation path. It is a legacy address, so we don't have to worry about segwit derivation paths. Maybe in a different account?

@AndreRoos, I would create a new wallet and try those derivation paths and insert that ismine("1YourAddressHere")

m/44'/0'/1'/0
m/44'/0'/2'/0
m/44'/0'/3'/0
....
I would try a few...

I think you didn't answer also what version of Electrum are you using on Tails. Is it 4.0? There is no 4.0, it is a phising.

Edit: I would also try one more thing.
Create a new wallet, insert your seed, click on Options and check "BIP39 Seed". Insert the ismine("1YourAddressHere").
Now do this:
Create a new wallet, insert your seed, click on Options and UNcheck "BIP39 Seed". Insert the ismine("1YourAddressHere").
