Thank you. Why is it not worth it?  bip39 is a code that can be placed on recovery words.  If your words fall into the hands of a thief, he can't do anything with just words and will need a password.  If he simply retrieves the words, he will see an empty wallet.

It's SafePal that I think is not worth it. It's closed source (at least the old version of it) and has a very bad user experience, probably the worst I have ever seen. I find that the need to scan QR codes constantly is quite annoying as well.

If you decide to go with it, I know it supports BIP39 (like pretty much every other wallet out there), but I'm just not sure if you can add a passphrase to it like you intend to do.

Hello.
I want to buy a hardware wallet. I only have bitcoin. In your opinion, is safepal good or ellipal titan mini? (I don't have a financial problem, I just want an air gap hardware wallet).
I also want a hardware wallet that support bip39 password (a cipher that is needed during recovery, in addition to words, and is actually a protection for words) when creating the wallet.
Thank you very much

I bought a SafePal some time ago, and I don't think it's worth the money (and it was even cheaper back then). Not sure about the latest one that just came out: https://www.safepal.com/en/store/x1


Also, I'm not sure I understand what is "bip39 password" you're referring to here. Is it the extended words that you can add to your seedphrase? If so then Trezor has that: https://trezor.io/learn/a/passphrases-and-hidden-wallets

جربت ايضا P2P في بايننس التي تدعم التحويل بين الافراد عن طريق Alipay اين تم قبول البطاقة لكن ومع الاسف البلدان غير الصين فقط لا يمكنهم ارسال اموال و تسمح فقط بالشراء عن طريقها.
اضن ان الحل هو ايجاد بائع يتعامل مع احد مواقع الشراء اقوم بشراء منتج منه وهو يقوم بالتحويل لي الى البيتكوين لكن الامر يعتبر مجازفة

لكن بمأنك تملك حساب في غوغل باي، الا يمكنك أستخدامه الحساب للتعامل مع أشخاص اخرين؟.

https://p2p.binance.com/en/trade/sell/USDT?fiat=USD&payment=GPay
https://paxful.com/buy-bitcoin/google-pay/?paymentMethod=google-pay

أو يمكنك ببساطة استخدام بينانس و التعامل بتحويلات بنكية (المحلية)

لا أنصحك بموقع باكسفول الا ان كنت في حاجة ماسة لبيع أموالك لأن المنصة أصبحت تحت ادارة مدير اخر و وفقا لما رأيته، يوجد الكثير من المشاكل في المنصة.

So they just released this a couple of minutes ago: https://coinex.medium.com/coinex-updates-on-recent-hot-wallets-hack-780a600dc846

But in short:

- 70M $ in assets has been lost.
- They're planning to finalize the wallet upgrades by next week, and gradually resume withdrawals.
- Users funds will be compensated fully.
365  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Remitano exchange allegedly hacked for $2.7M on: September 15, 2023, 09:27:54 AM
Not only didn't they post anything about the hack, but they are posting other stuff. But since Tether froze the address, I can't imagine them doing that unless they know for a fact that Reminato got hacked?

EDIT:
They just released an official statement: https://remitano.com/forum/ng/134684-latest-updates-on-recent-security-incident-on-remitano

A bitcoin wallet? If so:

1. Download Electrum: https://electrum.org/#download
2. Follow these steps to create a standard wallet: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/creating-an-electrum-wallet/
3. You can now head to the "Receive" tab to generate an address which you can then give to people or exchange so they can transfer bitcoin to you.
367  Other / Meta / Re: Is there any code or extension where I can hide the avatar on the top left page? on: September 13, 2023, 09:42:26 AM
-snip-
It works not only on top of the page, but on all individual avatars:
Code:
||bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_375981.png
-snip-

You're right but it should work on the top image only, if he selects the part surrounding the avatar image instead of the image itself (I would imagine that ADB allows you to do that too). Like this:



Code:
bitcointalk.org###upshrinkHeader .bordercolor .windowbg

I tried it and it doesn't look like it has blocked any other parts of the page.
368  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinex hacked, $18M stolen? on: September 13, 2023, 08:24:00 AM
I see the amount but nothing else other than that. Was there more info yesterday, like how much of each assets they have etc? Somehow I can't remmember whether it was there last night when I checked their CMC profile.
-snip-

Yes. They had the list of assets as well as the addresses and the amounts on them yesterday.

So I just checked some of the addresses from the link you posted, and it looks like they were targeted:

https://etherscan.io/address/0x53eb3ea47643e87e8f25dd997a37b3b5260e7336#tokentxns



We can see here that funds were sent to the hacker's address, and then to what looks like Coinex address that still have funds (50M in Ether, and 20M in tokens) :

369  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinex hacked, $18M stolen? on: September 13, 2023, 07:50:08 AM
It's a PR bullshit of course in order to calm their users but I doubt that anyone is buying it, at least not those that bothered to check their numbers. I mean, their 24h trading volume is ~$30 million, "reserve" is ~$32 million while hackerd amount is in range of $18 to $27 million. Small amount my ass.

Am I the only one who can no longer see the reserves now?

https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/coinex/

Since this is "Reported directly by the exchange" as mentioned on CMC, I would imagine that the only reason the data is not showing is because CoinEX no longer wants it to show... and if that's the case, that's even more worrying.
370  Other / Meta / Re: Is there any code or extension where I can hide the avatar on the top left page? on: September 13, 2023, 07:03:50 AM
Another way to do it would be to use uBlock Origin. It's an ad blocker but can help you with this as well. You can click on the avatar, right-click, and then simply hit "Block element".

If you want to bring the image back, just go to the extension settings -> My filters and remove the avatar url you blocked before.
371  Local / إستفسارات و أسئلة المبتدئين / Re: شراء البيتكوين او عملات مشفرة عن طريق بطاق on: September 12, 2023, 09:33:56 PM
لقد ذكرت في البداية Google play ثم قلت google pay.

فأي منهما يمكنك استخدامه مع البطاقة؟ لأنهما مختلفين تماما، لأنه استخدامك للبطاقة لشراء رصيد غوغل بلاي لا يعني بالضرورة ان الطاقة سوف تعمل مع غوغل باي.

372  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [Discussion] Bitcoin Spot ETFs on: September 12, 2023, 05:56:51 PM
So it looks like Franklin Templeton (1.5 Trillion dollar in assets under management) filed for a Bitcoin Spot ETF today[1].

Gary Gensler also had a hearing with the Senate today where Bitcoin ETFs were brought up. These were some of his statements:

Referring to a federal judge’s bombshell decision last month to side with Grayscale over the SEC, Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) asked Gensler what the body needs to see in a filing to approve a spot Bitcoin ETF.

Gensler told the Senate Banking Committee Tuesday that the SEC was “still reviewing that decision,” and added: “We have multiple filings around Bitcoin exchange-traded products, so it’s not just that one you mentioned, but it’s multiple others who we’re reviewing. I’m looking forward to the staff's recommendations.”

Gensler today reiterated that he thought the industry was a Wild West of noncompliance. “It’s a field which is rife with fraud, abuse, and misconduct,” he told lawmakers.

The exchange just issued an official statement about the matter[1]. According to them this is just a small "amount" of what their reserves have, and affected users will be compensated. Am I the only one who finds this a bit hard to believe? I mean looking at their trading volume and their "reported reserves"?[2]

1. If you use bitrefill, you can see it mentioned on the top whether the cards work on physical stores or just online.

2. I couldn't answer that. I haven't.

For the BTMs, I know there are some kyc free ones, just not sure if they are in the U.S. but you can check that information, along with the fees on:

375  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: alternative to coinomi (android) on: September 11, 2023, 02:11:22 PM
I just downloaded Unstoppable  and imported my coinomi seed.

It is Taking too long to sync (more than 10minutes and still 18%). I am not using Tor.

The wallet also has a heavy UI, too many useless tais like markets, news... I found how to hide some in the options.

Overall good wallet, but I think it could more simple and straightforward,  like electrum

Do you have thousands of transactions by any chance? and are you using ZEC (I know they have an issue with it syncing)? Otherwise, I know the syncing is a bit slow (maybe a minute or two compared to other wallets) and I have experienced it before, but 10 minutes and you're still at 18%?! That's way too much.
376  Other / Meta / Re: Please I keep getting logged out of the forum from my browser and don't know why on: September 11, 2023, 09:30:03 AM
Using incognito mode can not lead to your Bitcointalk account to be logged out automatically, it only help people browsing history not to be recorded on the browser used.
-snip-

This is why I'm asking OP how this happened exactly. But if you browse using Incognito, close... and then close the whole window, and reopen it again, then you will have to type your credentials again.

I could be wrong, but the Session ID or token must be stored on the client's side so when the user deletes that data from the browser, he's asked to log in again.
377  Other / Meta / Re: Please I keep getting logged out of the forum from my browser and don't know why on: September 11, 2023, 09:02:06 AM
Are you using incognito mode? Are you clearing your cookies/cache and history from your browser? How does it happen exactly? You're just browsing the forum, and then you refresh to find yourself logged out?
378  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Help identifying old wallet by weird seed phrase on: September 10, 2023, 11:22:24 AM
2010? I'm afraid that whenever wallet you were using at the time, has already shutdown.

Blockchain.info did have their own seed phrase I believe, but wasn't that short and it was not even available back then.
379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Resources and tools for querying Blockchain APIs. on: September 10, 2023, 10:46:24 AM
Some of the projects you mentioned are either archived or haven't been updated for a long time. Not sure if it's a good idea to list them?

You may also want to check this topic[1]. It's a bit different than what you're listing all of the services listed do offer REST APIs.

Well, i want to use LTC. Other than government and the exchanges (exch.cx) themselves, other people can't trace it like you , me and other people only access to the public blockchain ? Please tell.

Yes, that's true. If that's what you're worried about then yes, other individuals are probably not going to be able to see much but then you should keep in mind that there are platforms like Arkham Intelligence that allow people to post bounties for this type of thing.
