Jika melihat disini: https://download.electrum.org/4.2.2/, pada nama file AppImage Electrum di Linux nya itu tertera: electrum-4.2.2-x86_64.AppImage, jadi mestinya sih tidak masalah kalaupun diinstall di Linux OS 32 bit/x86 sekalipun.

x86_64 adalah nama untuk 64-bit processor/OS. Untuk 32-bit processor/OS, istilah yang umum digunakan pada distro linux adalah i386.

x86-64 (also known as x64, x86_64, AMD64, and Intel 64)[note 1] is a 64-bit version of the x86 instruction set, first released in 1999.

IA-32 (short for "Intel Architecture, 32-bit", sometimes also called i386[1][2])[3] is the 32-bit version of the x86 instruction set architecture, designed by Intel and first implemented in the 80386 microprocessor in 1985. IA-32 is the first incarnation of x86 that supports 32-bit computing;[4] as a result, the "IA-32" term may be used as a metonym to refer to all x86 versions that support 32-bit computing.[5][6]



Atau mungkin coba install Electrum-nya dari Python sources.

Saya juga menyarankan opsi ini jika masih menggunakan OS 32-bit.

I also pasted the image here. If you zoom in you can see it here in the forum.

I had poor experience by zooming in forum page, i'd recommend to open the image on new tab instead.

You could try using different website or evade forum system such as replacing . with [dot]. An example,

1683  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: A different approach to Bitcoin's scalability issues? on: May 27, 2022, 11:35:13 AM
While your approach have some flaws which already mentioned, i appreciate your effort to think new approach and writing it neatly.

I think the variable-blocksize method has already been proposed/attempted before. Possibly Segwit2x for example. Or maybe I'm just imagining about that one.

Definitely not Segwit2x, but i think you refer to BIP 104, 106 and 107.

The thing is when the blocksize is based on a difficulty, there's a chance for the blocksize to rise exponentially in proportion to difficulty without ever going down. This would keep the size at e.g. 100MB for a 100x increase in difficulty.

Even if someday, disks do get that kind of capacity to store a blockchain with that large blocks (and not eat up space from everything else), network speeds and internet prices would still be a bottleneck to downloading such a chain.

CPU and RAM would be bigger concern than internet speed/price.

I agree that the difficulty isn't really a measure for transaction demand. However, and I might also be wrong about this one, I believe that a relation (not necessarily a linear one) might exist.
I went to check some data to see something more visual.
I checked these 2 tables:
https://ycharts.com/indicators/bitcoin_transactions_per_day
https://www.blockchain.com/charts/hash-rate

I have seen 2 significant things:
     1) It appears that there is no linear relation between the hashing rate and the transactions per day.
         One thing that I think should be taken into account, is that today we are already facing the scalability issue's consequences. Meaning that I think it's possible to say with just a little of confidence, that if
         transaction fees weren't as high - we would see much more transactions occurring. So basically saying that it might be possible that the data we are seeing today is "manipulated" by the problem itself.
      2) When major changes in trends occur, it is seen in both the hashing rate and the transaction 'demand'. You can look at the end of June 2021, end of April 2021, end of October 2020, end of May 2020,
          end of March 2020. Although not identical, the downwards trend is similar. It should be said that it's possible that there a 3rd factor I didn't take into account that is effecting both of these rates.

So to sum this one up - I don't believe that the relation between the two factors should be linear. It could be inverted, divided, and etc.

1. Correlation doesn't necessary imply causation.
2. Have you used other data to compare it with bitcoin transaction/day? IIRC big Bitcoin price swing have bigger correlation with Bitcoin transaction/day since holder would either buy and withdraw from exchange or deposit to exchange and sell.

This post reminded me of the message in the README from the mempool.space production setup:

HDD vs SSD vs NVMe

If you don't have a fast SSD or NVMe-backed disk, that's fine—go online and buy some fast new NVMe drives. When they arrive, install them, throw away your old HDDs, and then proceed with the rest of this guide.

 Grin

To be fair, that instruction meant to run blockexplorer for 6 (six) different cryptocurrency network. Mempool also mention this on their installation methods.

Mempool can be self-hosted on a wide variety of your own hardware, ranging from a simple one-click installation on a Raspberry Pi full-node distro all the way to a robust production instance on a powerful FreeBSD server.

Lebih baik, ngikuti berita BTC ya dari bitcoin.com ..
bitcoin.com itu juga tidak bisa dikatakan kredible karena shiling dari bitcoin cash, cuma karena pake domain bitcoin tapi jualannya sih bitcoin cash alias nempel nama tenar bitcoin. Jadi ya harus hati-hati biar tidak kejebak [1].

[1]. https://katadata.co.id/marthathertina/digital/5e9a560d0ad49/terlalu-berisiko-pendiri-situs-bitcoincom-jual-seluruh-bitcoin

Selain itu, bitcoin.com juga pernah klaim bahwa BCH adalah Bitcoin yang sebenarnya dan BTC disebut sebagai Bitcoin Core dimana Bitcoin Core adalah nama program wallet dan full node untuk Bitcoin[1]. Mereka juga pernah menyesatkan orang-orang untuk membeli BCH ketika mereka ingin membeli BTC[2-3].

1686  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it a good time to start accepting BTC? on: May 25, 2022, 11:53:30 AM
I have been following Bitcoin prices for some time, and now I'm doubtful if it is a good time to start accepting it as it has changed so much in the past months. Those who accept Bitcoin - is it worth it? And do you accept Bitcoin straight to your wallet, or do you use third-party services?

If your main concern is volatile Bitcoin price, you could either find custodial Bitcoin payment processor which automatically convert received Bitcoin to fiat or exchange it frequently. While there's no bad time to accept Bitcoin, i would recommend you to research how much your customer wants to pay using Bitcoin.
1687  Economy / Exchanges / Re: New bitcoin fork on Yobit? This is another shitcoin on: May 24, 2022, 12:12:15 PM
Looks like they ran out of idea how to earn money scam people, so they decided to re-invent old wheel. AFAIK yobit frequently send email, so clearly they don't respect the fact you already unsubscribed if you haven't receive any email from them in long time. I would recommend you to find option "Report Spam".

Strange  Huh A BTC fork should be well recognised and known about around the crypto space just like BCH and other forks but with Yobit exchange they are just doing as they like, this isn't a genuine fork they are trying to deceive their customers once again, it's nothing new.

While it's not genuine fork, most BTC fork isn't recognized even by BTC holder. Website such as https://findmycoins.ninja lists some which have some value, but it's likely you only heard 2-5 of them.

Regarding the cooling required for RPi4, I ran into some throttling with RPi4 during synchronization and slapped a heatsink, which more or less solved the issue. Active cooling wasn't really necessary in my case. Never really an issue with the previous revisions though (7w vs 5w). It is still painfully slow regardless.

Also update the firmware of the Pi 4, there are few update which reduce the heat without sacrifice the performance.

The noise produced by HDD is actually quite overstated most of the time and it is barely audible.
Then maybe I'm wrong. The HDD I use for blockchain is more than 12 years old, it's a WD Black and it's pretty noisy.

WD Black isn't exactly average customer HDD, it's designed for best performance at high price. Besides, i find newer HDD has less noise than older ones.

The aim I have towards altcoins is to never be a holder but a opportunity taker, altcoins give me more bitcoin, Bitcoin indeed deserves to sleep in our wallet address than altcoins but with altcoins you will have more bitcoin in no time.

It's fair point, but it goes both way. You took wrong "opportunity" and you'll have less Bitcoin in short time. Short-term investment isn't for everyone, especially those who don't want to regularly check the news.

Shhh, Hoskinson is busy posting selfies on social media.  Cheesy
It's called "comminity building" and "important" for Shitcoins.  Tongue

You're supposed to use term "Public relations (PR)" since it sounds more professional.

Right now the dump part is so funny because it was so big that the percentage rounded up to 100% and the price is so ridiculously low that the number of zeros in the price doesn't even fit in the cell Cheesy

CMC should consider using 5.551e-20 (i didn't count 0 amount on screenshot) and "six 9s" which represent 99.999999% Roll Eyes.
1690  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: [TESTED IT] Minimum transaction value on: May 22, 2022, 11:48:23 AM
but the question would be what to do if / when the minimum transaction size will be too large for everyday transactions or the minimum transaction fee of 1sat/vB will be in the dozens of dollars or something like that.

1 sat/vB limitation only enforced by node, not by Bitcoin protocol. It can be solved easily by changing default minimum relay fee on Bitcoin full node implementation. But if 1 sat is deemed expensive for transaction fee, a fork will be needed.

I miss those days when I could broadcast up to 1000 byte with 0 fee, as long as one of the inputs was "mature" enough to qualify. I think it was called "medium priority" in Bitcoin Core, when destroying a certain number of coin days.

At that time, people are lucky since miner still following Bitcoin Qt behavior to include fee-less transaction under certain condition. These days, miner simply prioritize profit.
1691  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: The world's most stable mining platform RoyalMn on: May 22, 2022, 11:31:47 AM
OP, are you part of royalmn? Your post indicate you're here to announce this service rather than discuss about this service. Either way, with criteria mentioned by Puppet shows this service is another probable scam/ponzi cloud mining.

1) No public mining address / no user selectable pool.
2) No endorsement from any asic vendor
3) No relevant pictures of their hardware and datacenter
4) Open ended IPO / fractional reverse mining risk
5) Referral programs and social networking
6) Anonymous operators
7) No exit strategy
8 ) Bonus point for "guaranteed profit"

1. True?. The section "HOW ROYALMN Mining WORKS?" and "Information" section doesn't mention anything about it.
2. True?. If any ASIC vendor endorse this service, the main page should already state about it.
3. True?. The main page doesn't mention anything about proof of their hardware.
4. True?. There's no mention how much plan/hashrate you could buy.
5. True. The main page state "Powerful Referral Program."
6. True. Most field is "REDACTED FOR PRIVACY" according to https://who.is/whois/royalmn.live.
7. True?. The website doesn't mention anything about selling mining plans.
8. True. The main page state "We offer a variety of profitable mining solutions".

If you have decent GPU or willing to buy/rent one, you could use btcrecover[1] to crack it. In case you wondering why i mention GPU, it's due to huge speed boost for cracking Bitcoin Core wallet[1].

if someone here can help me crack the wallet i can split the 9btc 50/50 deal someone please help me..!!

Please be careful with offer to "help" from Personal Message, especially if they directly ask for your wallet.dat file. If you want someone else to do it, i also recommend service mentioned by @OmegaStarScream.

1693  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Consolidation of mixed outputs on: May 21, 2022, 11:43:53 AM
Creative way of (ab)using an exchange for gaining instead of losing privacy! Wink Since we're speaking about small amounts, actually an 'instant exchanger' might be perfect for this.
How about (ab)using hash rental websites like nicehash, deposit mixed coins into your nicehash wallet, rent SHA-256 hashrate, and mine to a large pool that pays every 24 hours (you don't have to pay withdrawal fees), you get fresh coins or otherwise completely unlinked.

That might work, but people should be careful since NiceHash ToS mention they implement AML/CTF.

You are correct, that's the drawback, but still, you can find PPS pools with 0% fees, also nicehash has been paying 5% less than the market on the 7-day average reported on whattomine.com, so that might even get you more sats than you deposit, but of course, this isn't always the case and thus one should go with the assumption that it will cost anywhere between 3% to 6% to obtain those coins.

Some people happily use credit card which usually has 3% fee for convenience sake, so IMO 3%-6% is acceptable for those who want to protect their privacy.
1694  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Rising Popularity of Crypto and It's Growth on: May 21, 2022, 09:33:49 AM
The popularity of cryptocurrencies has seen exponential growth in the past few years. It all started with bitcoin, but now, there are over 18,000 cryptocurrencies in existence. This level of growth in such a short period is remarkable and has benefitted early adopters of the nascent industry.

Quantity alone isn't good way to measure growth, considering most token/cryptocurrency is copy/paste of more popular one.

The rise of cryptos has also attracted a plethora of investors, leading to even more innovations in the crypto industry. These innovations are now accelerating the acceptance of cryptocurrencies and other decentralised projects.

What exactly do you mean by acceptance? Many people who own token/cryptocurrency only use it as investment. Additionally, i wonder how many of those project actually decentralized.
1695  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Github build vs downloading source on: May 20, 2022, 11:38:17 AM
I see all these tutorials that teach people how to build the source are using the git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin method which builds im assuming the most recent changes, so you get a version 23.0 followed by some alphanumeric string. Why use this and not just build the official release? Isn't this a more conservative way keep yourself updated?

Not all tutorials use latest commit, i managed to find few which checkout to specific tag[1-2] before compiling. If you find tutorial which use latest commit, it's likely the tutorial only show you how to compile Bitcoin Core without consideration for production system or managing real money.

OP, if you don't let people see pool result without voting some people will pick random option only to see the result. It'll make the pool result even less reliable when we rely the voter being honest.

The polling results are masked. No body knows who owns more or less than one.

CloudFlare does, although it's unlikely any human bother looking for such data.
1697  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [unofficial] CoinDebit NO-KYC pre-paid cards? on: May 19, 2022, 11:05:16 AM
Cards are accepted anywhere that accepts United States debit

Can someone explain what exactly is U.S. debit card? Card which issued by U.S. company? Does that mean local business outside U.S. doesn't accept this kind of card?

I wouldn't mind that condition if they'll return your money when they decide to block your access. I don't use any other site that says they can just keep my money if they feel like it (and that wouldn't even be legal).
They didn't say they would take away your money, just restrict access to their website, but you should still use their card just fine.
Only time you need to use their website is during card creation or money loading, everything else is visa related.

I would remain skeptical unless their ToS explicitly state they'll return the money if they decide to block customer.
1698  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Deleting Electrum wallet on: May 18, 2022, 11:53:50 AM
Where did the deleted file go, if not in the Recycle Bin?

Under the hood, the file is only marked as deleted. It's still exist on your disk until it's overwritten by another file or use software to wipe your drive securely. You could try recovering your wallet file using software such as Recuva or PhotoRec.

Is your disk quite full? Sometimes you'll get an option to permenantly delete files as instead of putting it in the recycle bin if your disk is too full.

Recycle Bin on Windows doesn't use whole disk by default. AFAIK the default is 5% of your partition size.
1699  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Consolidation of mixed outputs on: May 17, 2022, 12:52:41 PM
A wallet could have multiple addresses and blockchain data alone sometimes not enough to determine whether set of address belong to same address/person. But if you meant an address rather than a wallet, you could set higher fee or use option to use multiple address as destination.
I tried to keep it vague; for instance some people inadvertently leak multiple addresses of a wallet online, give the xpub to a non-trustworthy party or - the easiest - address reuse. But sure, if you 'follow protocol', addresses in a wallet shouldn't be linked, so total wallet amount is unknown to the outside.

I get the point, but people who bother use mixer/coinjoin (even with risk blacklisted from some service) is likely have better privacy practice and unlikely doing example you mentioned.

They have the option of adding BTC to your account. They will convert it to a 'cash balance' at the time you send it and each time you deposit you get a new address.
The minimum is $1.00 at the time of sending.

So in theory you could create an account with just an email add a bunch of small amounts of BTC, withdraw to a gift card that you can use in person.

It seems neat idea, but i wonder if there's privacy implication if you keep doing it for long time? I know Bitrefill give new address for each purchase, but i don't remember whether they also give new address for each deposit.
1700  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: WHY BITCOIN USERS EMBRACE THE THEORETICAL ASPECT TO TECHNICALITY IN [btc] on: May 17, 2022, 09:16:04 AM
OP, i strongly recommend you to use full stop to end a sentence and split to multiple paragraph. It'll make your post easier to read.

Bitcoin is quite technical and the technical aspect is more difficult to understand and embrace by ordinary Bitcoin users

Bank is also quite technical. There are so many parts such as detecting fraud, preventing race condition and initiating secure connection. But most bank customer don't know that.

so most Bitcoin users only focus on the theoretical aspect of Bitcoin because is easier to understand and do not involve computer programming knowledge to carry out basic Bitcoin functionalities such as sending and receiving Bitcoin, storing Bitcoin in a cold wallet and spending Bitcoin

And there's no problem if they have general idea of Bitcoin, have basic security awareness and know how to use their wallet. You can't expect everyone to have decent technical knowledge.
