Are you sure its fast? I didn't do research about it so i can't blabla like i do. Can you please tell me what kind of encryption they use? They maybe have a very modern processor to use that software. And it depends on the algorithm/encryption trick that they use. Can you provide more details for it? It's fast because it only encrypt/decrypt file which need to be read/written. I tried it with SSD once and can't notice the difference, unless i run 3D application ir copy lots of files. However, if you use HDD and use it to boot the OS, you'll notice your computer run slower. But i wouldn't use encryption if you're regular user, since recovering the file will be far more difficult. |

What's the point of removing drive letter?
Removing the hard disk character in the case of dual boot only, it makes the only visible volume that which includes the Windows (it cannot be removed at all). Its purpose is to secure windows volume from piracy from the other volume that contains insecure Windows.I get the point and it's useful assuming dangerous application rely on drive letter, but it's possible to access the drive directly (with admin privilege) without drive latter. you better use drive encryption (such as LUKS).
Using this will not cause Windows to boot. Simply because the files will be encrypted and it is not programmed to boot from it. This will require a new boot system to be programmed that will completely decrypt Windows files (more than 10 gigabytes) every booting. It's possible with VeraCrypt, besides the decryption process is quite fast. Here's a guide, https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/6169/use-truecrypt-to-secure-your-data/. |

- Do not use Public or Home WiFi networks! It can be tracked and hacked using free tools.
IMO avoiding Home's WiFi is too much, unless you let guest use it or you can't trust your family. What's the point of removing drive letter? If you don't want windows and windows application access the drive, you better use drive encryption (such as LUKS). |

If you need tutorial, i doubt you'll create mixer which actually protect Bitcoin's privacy. It's not good guide, since it encourage 3rd party API which obviously track API request. |

No way he would answer all this. He doesn't need to.
Of course he doesn't need to, but usually when people give interviews like this (and there are plenty of them), the interviewee doesn't have a gun to his head. True, but it enables peer pressure (especially if many people also wish same thing). |

Sorry, but I hadn't noticed that the DAEMON_URL was expecting two input fields (username and password). Once I entered it correctly, it started the server.
I'd like to mention that you can change value of other parameter (such as where do you store electrumx file) or add additional environment parameter. - Before exposing it to the internet, I'd like to firstly try it on LAN. It seems that with the way you've described me, it works only on localhost. Do I simply change the DAEMON_URL from localhost to 192.168.x.x?
- Can you explain a little further the last one you mentioned (container)? I don't have the electrumx files on my computer. Where does it execute the commands and from what files? Github?
- How do I change the banner/donation address? I've created a file called "DONATION_ADDRESS" containing a legacy address as being said on electrumx's documentation, but it doesn't seem to read it.
1. AFAIK yes. 2. You should search what is docker and how docker works. Here's an article i found https://devopscube.com/what-is-docker/. 3. You need to add another parameter when run electrumx-e DONATION_ADDRESS=YOUR_BITCOIN_ADDRESS
P.S. Those are good question, but unfortunately i'm still newbie when using Docker. |

Then apart from your privacy being lost, nothing else. They gain access to anything that is inside that wallet (address(es), public key(s), bookmarks, labels) and your transaction history from blockchain.
With those information, someone could 1. Analyze your habit (e.g. when do you spend your Bitcoin) 2. Link your IRL identity with online account (e.g. linking you with your bitcointalk.org account if you ever posted your Bitcoin address) 3. Know how do you spend your Bitcoin (e.g. deposit to exchange and buy gift card) I think the worst case is someone could threat you and demand Bitcoin with reason such as 1. Will report to police because Bitcoin isn't legal. 2. Share your personal stuff (most common are masturbation video and personal chat history), even though they actually don't have those stuff. |

In the end, i decided to try setup electrumx from scratch and i think successfully setup it based on the log file. Launching ElectrumX server...

This is how i do it. Hopefully i don't forget any step or copy wrong command 1. Install daemontoolssudo apt install daemontools
2. Move to proper path cd ~/Desktop
git clone https://github.com/kyuupichan/electrumx.git
cd electrumx
3. Configure Python virtual environment (optional) python3.8 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
mkdir ./DB
4. Install electrumx (i think it's optional) 5. Create directory service 6. Copy the daemontools script mkdir -p ./scripts/electrumx
cp -R ./contrib/daemontools ./scripts/electrumx
7. Configure ENV. Make sure to read this guide https://electrumx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/environment.html#environmentcd ./scripts/electrumx/daemontools/env
nano DB_DIRECTORY
Here's value i used FILENAME=VALUE
COIN=BITCOIN
DAEMON_URL=USERNAME:PASSWORD@LOCALHOST
DB_DIRECTORY=/home/user/Desktop/electrum/DB
NET=TESTNET
ELECTRUMX=/home/user/Desktop/electrumx/.venv/bin/electrumx_server
USERNAME=user
8. Configure log path. Change /path/to/log/dir to /home/user/Desktop/electrumx/scripts/electrumx/daemontools/logcd /home/user/Desktop/electrumx/scripts/electrumx/daemontools
nano run
9. Start svscan cd /home/user/Desktop/electrumx
svscan ./service
If you can't have multiple terminal run this instead cd /home/user/Desktop/electrumx
svscan ./service & disown
10. Add the service cd /home/user/Desktop/electrumx/service
ln -s /home/user/Desktop/electrumx/scripts/electrumx/daemontools electrumx
11. To see output from Electrum cd /home/user/Desktop/electrumx/scripts/electrumx/daemontools/log
tail current
P.S. It's very complicated compared with setup for systemd system or using docker ( https://github.com/lukechilds/docker-electrumx). |

Ada produk terbaru dari blockstream bernama, Blockstream Satellite Base Station Produk cukup ringkas tanpa setting apa pun pada alat. untuk deskripsi alat bisa baca di store-nya. Jadi, ini antena all-in-one menjalankan banyak node tanpa internet dan mengklaim tanpa tambahan perangkat keras apa pun lagi. perangkat ini berupa, receiver DVB-S2 sudah ada di dalam, konverter LNB, PoE injektor dan antena. Sederhananya sih, Antena akan menangkap sinyal dari luar angkasa dan meneruskannya komputer kita. Menurut FAQ, Indonesia hanya mendapatkan sebagian coverage pada C-band transmissions. Artinya alat ini tidak bisa digunakan bagi orang di Indonesia dan harus pakai Blockstream Satellite Pro Kit yang harganya $400 lebih mahal. |

Mixers has always been under threat, there are few reputable mixers closed because they think their time is almost up or stopped by government (e.g. the operator arrested or take control over the server). This is one reason why CoinJoin gaining popularity.

No plans to turn it off, since I'm going to be upgrading my computer and I have enough btc to feel like I should participate in the network.
Make sure you allow incoming connection and configure port forwarding on your router to ensure you can contribute.
P.S. Don't forget "Ignore" feature is exist. |

Since you're not being specific, i made something very simple start = 0x0
end = 0xF
path = './file.txt'
with open(path, 'w+') as f:
for x in range(start,end+1):
f.write(hex(x) + '\n')
The output should look like this 0x0
0x1
0x2
0x3
0x4
0x5
0x6
0x7
0x8
0x9
0xa
0xb
0xc
0xd
0xe
0xf
But as @HeRetiK said, what do you want to accomplish? It's possible you fell to XY problem. |

OP is the receiver and he use custodial wallet. It's only possible if OP ask sender to do "the cheap method".
It's possible to do the expensive method (using accelerators) too. It doesn't have to be done by the sender. For submitting a transaction on such accelerators, the only information you need is the transaction hash. I know that, but i only referring 1st option mentioned by @logfiles which can't be done by OP. |

Atomic wallet is closed source. Their actual claim is they use open-source library.
Changed. That means it is hard to see any altcoin open source wallet, or is there any open source altcoin wallet? Yes, there are very few open source multi-crypotcurrency wallet. Here are few example that i know (WARNING: i didn't perform thoughtful research, please DYOR), 1. https://brd.com/2. https://edge.app/bitcoin-wallet/2. https://guarda.co/ |

It's ridiculous, very few people in China affect Bitcoin price, but everyone in China should die. You should visit psychiatrists/psychologists.

Are there any benchmark about Bitcoin full node client resource usage/time complexity on different block size? For reference, i'm looking for benchmark similar with Bitfury report ( Block Size Increase). Unfortunately Bitfury's paper doesn't mention hardware, software and parameter used, so it's not reliable source.   What i'm NOT looking is benchmark like this, 2020 Bitcoin Node Performance Tests. |

For Omni sidechain, you can use these explorer https://omniexplorer.info/https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/omniDon't worry about "confidential" amount, that's how Liquid network works. They implement Confidential Transaction (CT) which hide amount of coin send/received. Another cryptocurrency such as Monero also use it. |
