Secret question can be changed or removed if you know the password of that account which obviously escrow or lender knows. So it is not at all a problem.

I don't think they discourage the use of Bitcoin to decrease amount of users. It probably was a fair warning.

Using online storage as cold storage? I am hearing this for first time. Try to make your sig spam better by thinking before posting or you will be banned.

Verifying signature will do. Sources are signed by ThomasV and executables are signed by Animazing.

Signature for Electrum-2.3.2.tar.gaz is https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-2.3.2.tar.gz.asc.
ThomasV's PGP key can be found here -- https://bitcoin-otc.com/viewgpg.php?nick=ThomasV.

If you have installed GPG, run gpg --verify Electrum-2.3.2.tar.gz.asc Electrum-2.3.2.tar.gz. If the verification is positive, you downloaded the right file. Else, you downloaded a file which is not from official site or there is some problem with Electrum developers' side which is unlikely.

You can get signatures for other executables and sources from https://electrum.org/#download.

Use these and compare.

Personally, I recommend you to mine with this only for studying how it works and then buy an ASIC if conditions for mining are favourable.

Romano1 is alt of superSTAR777.

Why did you use an address created by someone else and that too by an anonymous person? Lesson learned.

Both posts and PMs are recoverable.

Using PGP is not mandatory. You can also use a Bitcoin address for signing.


You first need to be trusted to act as escrow. Not the other way around.

Posting "price is too high" in many threads is trying to increase post count/activity and is certainly spam. FYI one does not need to wear any signature for posts to become spam.

Yes, theymos can.

See https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0032.mediawiki. You will generate public keys using xpub key(extended public key). Eg:- xpub6CUGRUonZSQ4TWtTMmzXdrXDtypWKiKrhko4egpiMZbpiaQL2jkwSB1icqYh2cfDfVxdx4df189 oLKnC5fSwqPfgyP3hooxujYzAu3fDVmz

Electrum uses m/0/<n> for receiving addresses and  m/1/<n> for change addresses. (Source: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/36955/what-bip32-derivation-path-does-electrum-use)

Remember, ASAP is for me. It is not meant for all.

No. I don't have any info about their winding up(if they are).


Lying or joking?


Can you please explain what do you mean by "backed up"?


I am not supporting BIT-X, instead, I think it is legit.


Prove it.


So talking means being friend? Then we all are friends here.


Thought so.


I have no problem with Pesobang, only with CMW and other ponzis.


Just said as you requested not to post from an alt.


I have not followed closely but I think what you said is true.


But they didn't show what they need to show.


So CMW's excuses are not nonsense? Hmm... Their excuses for not showing any details about data centres or mining are BS.


This is the worst criteria I have ever heard of. No offence. You do know ponzis go for this all time?


It was not so little because investors advertised in this forum and other websites and besides, little advertisement cost from their side means long durability for their ponzi.

Are you trying to tell me that if a site has been paying out for some months, they can't be ponzi? Don't forget PBMining.


Sorry if I have missed anything but interestingly, almost all of them are ponzis.

The error is showing because you have a different version of Berkeley DB. For Bitcoin core, BDB 4.8 is recommended. You can avoid that error by installing BDB 4.8(recommended) or by running ./configure --with-incompatible-bdb. Latter will break compatibility with pre-built binaries.

http://bit-post.com/featured/running-bitcoincore-0-10-on-a-raspberry-pi-2-4419 will be helpful for you.

BTW, you do have enough space to store blockchain, right? If not, try using lightweight clients such as Multibit HD and Electrum.

Bitcoin is not a payment processor.


Bitcoin is an irreversible currency. Being irreversible does not mean it is not a currency. I suggest you to read https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

Point me where I went wrong wrong or tell me why you posted this. Did I not investigate? I don't understand why you posted this. I am giving you a benefit of doubt this time but next time onwards, meaningless posts will be deleted.

That's why, it is highly recommend to store the secret key safely. Authy is good but as it backups to cloud, I don't like it much.
