Redundant. If that's the solution, why not just use an altcoin for that?  |

I am also using Electrum desktop wallet for windows and i think if you have the seed key with you then you dont need the password because when you install the electrum wallet that time it ask to create new wallet or import the wallet with seed key and when you insert the seed key your wallet is generated and it ask you to input the password newly so your old password dont work. This is what i am using this way and restoring my electrum wallet in other places and access my address. So i think you are missing something in the seed key. Try this option and see that you are getting your solutions.
No, it won't work since OP is looking for private keys that have later been imported to the wallet, and those aren't going to be included in the normal seed. With the seed you will only be able to recover the private keys that have been created with the seed/wallet, not the imported ones. ^ This is exactly my quandary. This is an imported key to a main wallet that was never SWEPT. Realistically, I could release this wallet seed to the internet for the password? As stated before, and as you've said, the funds were never swept, so they're not backed up with that seed. If you have nothing there, you could release it and that would be of no help for recovering the funds you want. Have you tried any recovering tools so far (including the one stated above)? |

As far as I've read, the fastest way to get in touch with them is via their Slack channel. Support can be indeed quite unresponsive, however last I've heard they were hiring folks throughout America so you may want to wait until their working hours today over there, and then maybe resubmit or enter their Slack...
You can also post in their thread here, they sometimes read it.

Regulation and laws from authorities are a two sided knife, they can empower Bitcoin or hinder its progress. Bitcoin is in direct competition with the traditional banking system, so it's more likely that regulation hinders Bitcoin... Which is extremely sad and bad. So we're better off not being noticed and having no regulation at all. We can't afford the risks that this brings.

Funny tweet  Immediately questioned myself how is it like to have that much money and not be able to get out and enjoy some of it haha. Although funds are probably not his, personally, and they are used to fund everything Wikileaks related... Anyways, in a more serious tone... Great way to show how to make something negative a really positive thing. |

Most likely no. Hence why it's recommended to not have any funds on exchanges...

Pretty redundant. We already have the News headline on top and Meta...

Bitcoin will remain exactly the same. As for price, we can only do guess work... I have no crystal ball, but I'd say the impact on the price is going to be negligible...

I'm looking to purchase a new laptop and I want to know, which brand would be best compatible with #Bitcoin core wallets and upgrades.
Any brand. It's irrelevant... What security services should I use?
Depends on the platform, but mostly your brain and a disconnected ethernet cable if you want a cold storage  Judging how no one is letting up in this fork debate I see that in the future bitcoin wallet providers will be speaking out on which chain they will be a part of. I just want to be as close to correct as possible.
Whatever your hardware choice, it will be irrelevant for any fork... |

Yes. They leave us alone doing our own thing and we'll keep ignoring them.

Pretty much any wallet. Fees aren't wallet dependent and quite a few of them allow you to set your own custom fees. Widely used wallets for desktop are Bitcoin Core and Electrum, for example. You can see more on the Alternative clients section of the forums...

We don't... There's only one version of Bitcoin. I have seen some posts regarding this or taking into account "several versions" of Bitcoin. I don't see where people find those, it's not possible.

No, you didn't lose coins. breadwallet is still syncing and thus probably did not calculate the correct fee for a next block confirmation while you sent the coins. They'll arrive but might take time...

This is very close to a solution and thank you! I'm not touching those D/L links out of safety. However, provide a public donation address and I will send .01 btc for your effort. Once a total solution is found: P.S. Bounty is to walk me through this or find a total solution. We can guide you, but we need to know exactly in what steps you got stuck while setting up btcrecover. If you follow the tutorial on their github page you should be able to set it up quickly. To begin with you should download the program: wget https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/archive/master.zip
And then unzip it You should then install needed dependencies. You can begin with python, first check if it already installed with: If it's not installed and if you use Ubuntu I think you can install it in a very straightforward way sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python
Then off to coincurve sudo pip install coincurve==5.2.0
If this returns an error you probably don't have pip, install it like this... Otherwise just skip this or sudo apt-get install python-pip
Then PyCrypto sudo apt-get install python-crypto
After this you should have everything needed. I don't remember the last time I used this tool, but after a quick read on the instructions I think this is all that's needed. Do this and post if you have any issues. After this, we can proceed. |

If you think you know at least some of the password, you may want to try btcrecover. There's a tutorial on the github page. BTW, there's an Electrum subforum, you might want to try and post there instead. Thank you unamis76 - I've read through BTCRecover and cannot get it to work. Do you think it will help here? Yes, I think it can probably help. What troubles are you having setting it up? |

All you need is the seed. Download the latest electrum and click file>new/restore.
Then name your wallet.
Select "standard wallet"
"I already have a seed"
And paste the seed in the next box.
Then follow the rest of the steps and your coins should be recovered.
The user is looking for recovery of imported keys, as stated, those aren't included in the seed. |

The watching only wallet will always correspond to the offline wallet you created it from.
If it is a single backup, yes. You can have a SecurePrint code and store it separately, it would achieve what you're looking for (I don't think setting a password on top of the backup is possible)

Is there anyway to use an air-gapped way ( no USB sticks) to somehow get the watch-only wallet onto the online computer from the offline computer? Anyway to do this using QR codes?
Yes. If you want qr codes, you can use something like QtQr. You can also use minimodem to communicate via audio. Anyway to use QR codes to create the unsigned transaction and use QR codes after the transaction is signed using offline computer?
Yes, just transform the transaction data into a qr using qrencode. |
