Commerical banks have online banking.

You can also get all these on commercial bank.

If you do not want to use online banking, you can use those online lending platforms which are easier and more likely to borrow you than online banks that you are talking about.

This is one of the reasons many people are using them. For some transactions, it is free, unlike commercial banks that do charge their customers.

The other reason is because they have less failed transactions, more successful transactions and also better notifications service than commerical banks.

The commercial bank that I am using, if I put money there and not using it for any transaction, they will credit the account monthly. But that is not possible as I use it for some subscriptions. If you are using commerical banks, there would be more deductions. I agree to that, but not when you leave you money there without using it.

But just like you meant, banning them on this forum does not mean mixers are bad or not trustworthy. People can continue to use them. To find reputed mixers, this would be helpful:

2023 List Bitcoin Mixers Bitcoin Tumblers Websites

On Altcoinstalks, you can see the forum ads and signature ads of many of some reputed mixers like Mixers and Thormixer there.

Recommended Coinjoin are: Whirlpool of Sparrow and Samourai wallet, and the Coinjoin of Jointmarket.

Manually? I do not think he will find it at all. He will need a tool that can generates the BIP39 seed phrase, the keys and the address like the incoleman that you mentioned, but also search for customized addresses among more than billions of generated addresses. That will have to be automatic.

I agree with this.

Also that it is worth knowing to use it on an airgapped device for security reasons.

You want a vanitygen (customized) address and also you want the address to be among the address listed with BIP39 seed phrase. That is you want the BIP39 seed phrase to also generate the customized address? No tool to do that. You can still securely backup the private key of a vanitygen address securely offline encrypted in two or three memory cards or USB sticks.

He has no option that to cut his clothes according to his size.

Tell him to make use of lightning network on the exchange to send the coin to a wallet or he can make use of side chain which are also of low fee. After certain period, he can send them on-chain.

Not DCAing nor holding coin anymore is not an excuse.

He posted that the issue is solved after he off the Tor from the Mycelium settings. If he on the Tor but not connecting to Orbot, this will result to synchronizing issue unless he connect to Orbot. That was what that caused it. Even if that was what that happened, the wallet supposed not to connect to the Internet at all because Mycelium wallet has no in-built Tor and there will be no synchronization.

This is what will come the mind of some people and be coward to invest. This is also what some people will think and be procrastinating to invest which will make them keep postponing the time to invest. It is true that bitcoin investment is very risky, but it is worth going for at the right time. If you can not go with all your money that you want to use to invest in it, why not DCA. In 2024/2025, be expecting all-time-high and also we are expecting six digits.

This would likely not be an update issue. You need to install the wallet again. Or better to use a better wallet for bitcoin if you are only using Mycelium for bitcoin. There are better bitcoin wallets like Electrum, Sparrow, Bluewallet, Samourai and some other wallets.

Get you seed phrase backup. Make sure it corresponds to the Mycelium seed phrase and not another seed phrase. Delete the wallet and download it again. Import the seed phrase on the newly downloaded Mycelium wallet and see if it is showing the correct balance.

Why not post this on Nigeria local board. It belongs to Nigeria local board.

The thing is you should have confidence and making sure you have no skeleton in your cupboard. If what you are doing is legit and you are polite, there is nothing. But most of you guys dress like Yahoo boys is one of the commonest reasons that you are noticed by police officers. A police man as never noticed me before.

But what is funny is about how those boys and some police are friends. That was ones of the reasons EndSARs was a good idea. The good people suffered because they have no money to give to become their friends, while the bad people are their friends as they have something to give like the rich men.

There was bull run last year. In fact, last year was a bull run year.

Holding is still the best. Bitcoin halving is getting closer and less than 100 days from now. After halving, another bull run is coming, which would be significantly enough to get bitcoin to all-time-high. So there is not point in selling now if the reason is about bull and bear market.

Just like I posted before, people should avoid this exchange, until we are convinced about it.

You are wrong. Old domain are called premium domain and are offered by domain investors and they are costly unlike a domain that you created yourself.

Although, a new domain can be legit but scammers often use it because they do not have extra money to waste on old domain. But legit site can begin with new domain but convince people with advertisements. If they have huge money to pay for advertisement, that is convincing enough that it is not likely a scam site.

So what is Vikbit.com offering to prove that they are not scam?

The site is working now and I saw good reviews on the site on the day it was not working. I do not know how people were still able to review, why not able to use the site. I do not believe in the site until we are convinced.

A site with cheap domain and not ready for advertisement is likely a scam. I will advice people to avoid it until we are convinced.

You are wrong that mixers do not work anymore. They are still working.

Yes, Coinjoin can also be used. Also converting bitcoin to monero and back to bitcoin will also work, but on decentralized exchange like https://bisq.network/, or he can go the easy way like https://exch.cx/.

If you send the coin to the wrong address, sorry your coin is lost already and not recoverable. If the address on blockchain explorer is not yours when traced through txid, then the coin is gone.

CashApp is custodial wallet, make sure the address is truly wrong because you might send the coin to the right address but CashApp do not credit your account. If that is it, you have to notify CashApp customer care that they did not credit your account after sending to the right address.

Mixers (centralized mixing services) are banned but those that provide decentralized mixing service (on noncustodial wallet) like Whirlpool of Sparrow and Samourai, Coinjoin of Jointmarket and Wabisabi of Wasabi are not banned.

Theymos may not categorize them as mixers, but literally they are mixers. In short, they are referred to as decentralized mixers.

An exchange that its domain was created two weeks ago


Although the site is not yet working. Or probably it has been taken down. If possibly that the site is working, I will advice people not to use it.

This is how scammers like to elicit their work.

That limited amount that makes bitcoin deflationary can not just be added to or erased. What that will cause the supply to be altered will means that miners will all agree to that and nobody will agree to that. People want it to stay at 21 million BTC. I speculate that any attempt to do anything to alter the 21 million supply will only be a failed attempt.

Never expect anything good about bitcoin from bitcoin critics.

Yes.

Also I am just thinking of it. NeuroticFish is also correct. Although we may not be able to spend the coins on Electrum directly, but Electrum wallet will still be able to generate the keys needed for coin recovery and spending. But let us hope that this will not change one day as they do to Android Electrum. Before on Android Electrum, you can get the keys, but now not possible.

Paper wallet has only one address. If you have spend the coins and you do not spend all at once, the change will be sent to the address that you are spending from.

Yes. If you want a change address, you can create another paper wallet using an airgapped device and spend all the coins by sending the remaining coin (change) to the paper wallet address that you have just created. Let it be be in the same transaction with the coins that you want to spend. It is still 1 input and 2 outputs.

Bluewallet is not having testnet. If it is mainnet, you can use Bluewallet for the recovery.


 

Worth knowing that the transaction made on seed phrase imported from Electum to Bluewallet will not support Replace-by-fee if used for making transaction.
