What app were you using?

Unfortunately, your Bitcoin is probably lost. There is no way to recover the address without any kind of backup.
9202  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Trying to send BitCoins, Broadcasts forever... no history on: September 05, 2015, 02:35:44 PM
Is Bitcoin Core completely synced yet? If it isn't the transaction might not be broadcast.

Also check your connections. Open Help > Debug Window and tell us how many connections it says you have.

What version of Bitcoin Core are you using?
9203  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: [Problem] Reindex blocks on disks on: September 05, 2015, 02:31:37 PM
There was an error with the database, caused by it during down incorrectly. It will reindex the database which can take a while. Your bitcoin is safe.

Again 40 GB must be download?
It will not download anything. You already have all of the raw blocks, but it must organize them into a database so that Bitcoin Core can quickly reference data it needs. It will take a few hours, but not as long as downloading.

It looks like this one www.dzlatan.pw/get_activity.php but the only difference is OP's has ads. Anyways it would be still helpful to check the potential activity in 2 or more activity checkers. Is there anymore sites like this ?
There is a site I created, bctalkaccountpricer.info which not only gets your potential activity but also estimates the price of your account.

Sure, why not? If I can do this through fiat, why not Bitcoin? It might get some bad press, but it will help someone and help my family.

You should definitely write this into a program and put it in services or project development. It would be great for analysis on finding people's alts, not just quickseller. In fact, maybe quickseller himself might even use it.

Great idea! Then people can do to others what tspacepilot claims quickseller did to him, make accusations without solid proof, just assumptions based on what others say or in this case, a script / algorithm or whatever you want to call it. No?
It would be a good baseline to start with. Instead of attempting to hunt and search for proof that might not even exist, it would at least provide someone with something to work off of. It would at least show that it is possible for two accounts to be alts for further research instead of going directly to searching for blockchain evidence which can take a very long time. Such a program would also be useful for seeing whether an account was sold and roughly when.

I was thinking of this site of yours yesterday with people saying they are number so and so in the queue and some complaining that they have been waiting hours [including me], in any case, I was wondering, how many hits/requests do this site process each day?

I think it would be quite interesting if you don't mind to share it. I believe it to be much higher than we think it might be.
According to my ad stats, I'm getting around 17 unique ip's per day and around 24 visits per day.

Been loading for about 2hours now. although i dont think its loading it feel like its stuck. i was at position 4 for a looong time.
i wonder if the code actually takes that long to execute

It doesn't take that long to execute, but there is the problem where the queue isn't working. Unfortunately, the best option right now is to restart the web server software periodically to clear the queue. I think I will add a crontab task so it does that every 24 hours.

What is the license on this? I'm starting to see some people creating their own sites with the script and posting them in the services section. This should have a license on it so any of their changes can be merged if there is any improvement. I would recommend using Affero General Public License from here: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html if it doesn't already have a license.
9211  Economy / Services / Re: Free Activity Counter [Count Your Account Activity Today] on: September 04, 2015, 09:56:00 PM
I think this one and most of the other ones are based on this script from the topic here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1148181.0. I suppose this is ok since the script is open source.

If you want i can host in my paid host, i think it should work faster in two websites(hosts) with different IPs isn't it ?
The problem is that the program isn't designed to have two servers as backend. I can probably modify it to do that, but it will take some time.

The site is back up.

But what do you think to have a copy on the another server, another ip? And linking these 2 websites to each other?
That could work. Maybe like a load balancer thing where the visitors are switched between the servers. One visitor to one server, the next on the other, and the third back on the first. This is kind of like my original idea which involved a new server for each request, but that didn't work.

Or maybe a new server for each visitor that connects to a shared database so their results can come back instantly and each visit they can get the same data with the same token.
9213  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Sending a transaction offline? on: September 04, 2015, 09:41:05 PM
I've heard of this before how would this be possible and how does one do an offline transaction? does it mean it keeps a request in memory until you connect to the internet then sends it?
Using an offline computer, you would create and sign the transaction and then transfer the data (usually just the data in hex) to an online computer to broadcast. The transaction can be broadcast through Bitcoin Core or through various online services that push transactions.
9214  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 50 hours no conformations. All funds are locked on: September 04, 2015, 09:39:49 PM
Hello. Yesterday I mad two deposits to my wallet. One for $180 and another for $97. I then sent $271 to a friends address. 5 minutes Later I recieved a duplicate payment of $97 creating a double spend. This left my transaction of $271 unconformed. Can someone me please help me out? Blockchain.info was no help whatsoever. Is there anyway I can undo the transaction ? It's been over 50 hours and 0 conformations. Here is the hash https://blockchain.info/tx/3803ef67dc603ca2c80b9d0ea3bc928ec999b9d22b287db2a663ba3aa5856e03

If someone could help I'd be glad to donate
That transaction no longer exists in blockchain.info. Here it is on blockr https://btc.blockr.io/tx/info/3803ef67dc603ca2c80b9d0ea3bc928ec999b9d22b287db2a663ba3aa5856e03

What do you mean you received a duplicate payment?
9215  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: help me understand the fee market on: September 04, 2015, 09:32:44 PM
the answer is they wouldn't

miners would find a good balance so that bitcoin TX remain low cost, because in the end the fee they collect aren't valuable if bitcoin isn't valuable, and bitcoin isn't valuable if it's expensive to use it, or less valuable. miners would bump the limit up to what the avg miner can comfortably handle probably ~8MB, and then maybe they would collectively refuse to bump the limit any future, and fee would start going up because 8MB blocks are being filled ( wouldn't that be nice if bitcoin had 8X more traffic then it has today) and then because 8MB of tx with a 0.0005BTC fee = 16BTC in fees pre block  ( 8MB / avg tx size 250 bytes *0.001BTC fee) suddenly mining is very profitable, more poeple join, poeple that can comfortably handle 8MB block get knocked out and the limit rises again. or something!?

you can't argue that bitcoin is somehow more valuable if it can't do micropayment so dont try brg444

So Basically all of those arguments saying that the miners would drive up the fees to be ridiculously high are unfounded.

So is this actually your solution for the block size debate? Let's leave the 1MB cap for the moment and let's play with the fees, or to say, let's increase the fees as needed. And this is fine with me, I think that even a fee of 0.0005 or even a fee of 0.001 BTC isn't amazingly big, if you send let's say $1,000 worth of Bitcoin, it's nothing to pay 0.001 or $0.23.

But what happens then if we get so many users on board that they are all ready to pay 0.0005 but there is no room for 1MB block? I guess everybody will agree and raise block size at this moment, like you said to 8MB. But what happens when even this 8MB becomes too small?

Or are we really far, far away from this point?
The cap would go up again. I thought that he meant something like BIP 100 where miners could vote to increase or decrease the block size limit. They would just keep the limit at a point that the fees go up enough to be profitable, but then they can vote to increase the size so that people still use Bitcoin.

Fck altcoins.

If you don't wanna pay the high fees required to maintain the Bitcoin network the alternatives are lightning, other payment channels or off-chain methods. In fact if you can't pay for it you most likely don't actually need it that bad enough  Wink
Clearly you don't know much about economics. Sure there will be those hardcore fanatics that will stick with Bitcoin no matter what, but for the general populace, if fees go to high, they will go with the next best alternative. While Bitcoin dominates the market, there is still competition, and with just one screw up like ridiculously high fees, people will most likely ditch Bitcoin for an altcoin because it is in their self-interest to pay lower fees.
9216  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / help me understand the fee market on: September 04, 2015, 07:11:16 PM
So I have been following the recent block size limit discussions going on and one thing I noticed is that people say we shouldn't raise blocks to allow a fee market to develop. Another is that BIP 100 allows miners to continue to lower the block size limit in order to force a fee market.

From what I understand, the idea is that once there are enough transactions to fill blocks up completely and have a backlog, resulting in some transactions not being confirmed in the next block. Then, in order to get into the next block, transactions will begin to have higher fees.

While this might be good to increase fees slightly, I don't understand why people say that small block sizes will force a super competitive fee market. Wouldn't people just ditch Bitcoin and go to some other altcoin (like litecoin) instead of paying ridiculous fees? Why would miners (in the case of BIP 100) lower the block size limit to increase fees if it drives away people thus decreasing their earnings?

this is what I get when I try to open the site

"This webpage is not available

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

site maintenance or updating or site is down?

it's seems same on me, Looks like the site is not available to access. Maybe the site is going to update.

Maybe he is moving to another server because lots of request maybe or problem with the host.
There is a problem with the server, but I can't fix it right now since I'm not at my computer that can ssh into the server.

See that little metal square with the blue plastic square in it? You need to pop that metal up so that the plastic is no longer inside and catching it. Do that on both sides. Then the cooler should be able to be pulled straight off.

It's still not wanting to come off... And take a closer look at the lever the locked and unlock symbols don't make sense...
You might have actually just locked the lever. Perhaps it never was locked?
