Try moving this from Tech Support to here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=97.0That is the Armory subsection and there will be more users there. However, if you have the root key and it is correct, one would think it would work. It is the same version both places? Did you print the hard copy or copy by hand? |

if you have any idea about bitcoin increasing? if I buy now btc so its r8 or wrong time
fell free or droped here....
thanks
No one knows. It is all guessing short term. The long term trend has been up, so if your time frame isn’t months and you know it involves risk of losing it all, then any time is okay to buy. |

To think the guy who started this thread had a btc price of 10-$20 back in 2011...he sure must be an elite gentleman by now !  Yes of course the first investors in 2009 and the same years will be now quite elite gentlemen. I sometime also feel very upset, why I not bough bitcoin in the early starting years. I would also be a very elite gentleman in 2017, and the years upcoming. So nothing can be said before the time. Late come, faith come is saying in my country. There is no tension at this time. Everyone eats his luck and will be happy with that. I agree.But there are still chances we could be the elite gentlemen in the next 7-10 years.Just keep on buying even the current price is definitely high.Then hold it for long.After all,it's the profit we are really looking forward to.And yes,it will definitely 3× or 4× from the amount we invested.And that will make us soon the new elite. Back in 2010 and 2011 (and 2012 etc) people were saying the price was too high or “definitely high” and wouldn’t last, it was a ponzu etc. Every time I hear stuff like that I remind myself that at each new high, people will repeat the same things. But that if you have patience and wait a year or two, bitcoin’s fiat price has continued rising. |

Brazil Central Bank Chief Compares Bitcoin to Pyramid SchemeThe head of Brazil's central bank took a harsh position toward bitcoin earlier this week, comparing the cryptocurrency to a pyramid scheme. According to RttNews, central bank president Ilan Goldfajn was dismissive of recent price appreciation in the bitcoin market. And while he said it was key to "separate" bitcoin from other applications of its underlying technology, Goldfajn said that those buying cryptocurrencies are chasing the same kind of returns as those who invest in pyramid scams. https://www.coindesk.com/brazil-central-bank-chief-compares-bitcoin-pyramid-scheme/ That is kind of like Charles Ponzi criticizing gold and silver. Given the mismanagement by Central Banks over more than a century, their views and wishes usually are diametrically opposed to those of just about everyone else who has any desire to preserve wealth. |

how do i consolidate them exactly? First of all, read and understand the rules of this board: Technical discussion about Satoshi's Bitcoin client and the Bitcoin network in general.
No third-party sites/clients, bug reports that do not require much discussion (use github),
or support requests.whats the point to spam in my topic if you just write stupid crap. if you are smart just ignore that topic and get on the nerves of your neigbours or someone else... there are more users especially those who already posted something related I think he was suggesting that you move this to the a different forum where there will be people who know a lot about blockchain.info (e.g. perhaps here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=222.0. ) As far as consolidating, I believe they mean to send your entire balance to a single address, perhaps in multiple transactions so that instead of having, say, 10000 incoming transactions (inputs) you have 1 or 5. However, Blockchain.info support would know for sure what they are asking you to do. This topic seems to be similar to what you are asking: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1949251.0And these too: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1787852.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=143750.0 |

which wallet should i give you as i use blockchain and its the " my wallet " function which included alot of adresses?
if you can say me how to filter and find the " bad " ones i can give you then.
does the unspent outputs get higher from time to time? cause the sending amount is changing from hour to hour sometimes a bit higher again sometimes bit lesser ( its up to the actual btc chart ? )
1. You keep just saying "blockchain". Everyone is assuming you mean "blockchain.info" which is a web wallet? Is that accurate? 2. You shouldn't give anyone your wallet. You can share the PUBLIC keys. 3. Unspent outputs can get higher or lower if you spend or not. I don't know exactly what this means: "its up to the actual btc chart " and I think a lot of people are confused about what you are asking for help with. If Blockchain.info wants you to consolidate, then you should do so. |

These are called vanity addresses. They are made by randomly generating addresses until one is found by chance to have a prefix that you want. Bitcoin protocol does NOT allow addresses to be tied with names or any information. No information will be shown in the address.
However, if you are talking about this[1], the name can only be shown inside blockchain.info and nothing else. You won't be able to see ranochigo when you send Bitcoins to that address as stated before, unless you are using anything related to Blockchain.info. It is stored in the server, if they go down, the tags would all be gone. You can set it here[2].
i mean like 134 mynameGDGSwU6AnkgSEqP3kZ2cKqruh my name part of my BTC address You can generate a custom address here ( https://bitcoinvanitygen.com/). The site allows you to choose up to 6 characters for free. So you can generate an address that has your name (or at least an abbrevation ) in it. The reason your address changes everytime is due to privacy concerns. Most online wallets give you a new receiving address each time you make a transaction. But you will still receive the bitcoin if you use an address more than once. If you use a web site like the one above, someone else does know your private key, perhaps more than one. It is never a good idea to share it with anyone no matter how trustworthy they claim to be. |

The .09561326 Bitcoins are there with (as of now) 23 confirmations. Unspent means it is still there and not spent, just waiting.
As far as it showing up at ICE3X, if that is an exchange, then it may be they are slow crediting it, and you’d have talk to their support.

The answer to your question is, all of the privacy we can get, as I still never heard of a good argument on why not or even on how would be possible to stop these private technologies in a first place. It is important to keep in mind that wondering on how world should look like makes no sense if there is only one possible way it can go and will go. What is the point of the question when there will be better and better privacy no matter what you do. You can't stop it, it isn't your choice to make, you don't have an alternative option.
You are correct. A few additional points, to some of the people above. 1. Always remember that when seconds count, police are just minutes away. That is why many over in the US like to handle their own protection when possible. 2. Likewise, the same people who want the population of the US disarmed because that should be left to the police and other officials are the same people who are protesting about BLM etc and say the police can't be trusted. So, you should trust the police, but can't trust the police. Got it. 3. The same politicians who don't like citizens to have guns are surrounded 24/7 by armed guards often paid for by the citizens of the US. If the politicians disarm first, then I suspect the rest of the US might consider it. 4. What is funniest is that this same group is arguing that Trump == Hitler and yet they want everyone else to give up their guns! If Trump were Hitler, I would personally want guns to fight with instead of meekly submit to the gas-chambers. Some people prefer to surrender though. 5. Everyone deserves privacy and anonymity if they want it, rich or poor. Many of the most powerful written works were done anonymously because the author (e.g. Thomas Paine, Hamilton et al, Liu Xiaobo (should've been anonymous) etc) feared for their lives. If all of their transactions were public the world would be a much less free place because many wouldn't have been printed. Writing alone is not enough, paying for printing, paper, distribution etc costs money. Having your entire financial ledger public means you might as well use your name. No one knows beforehand that a certain person needs and deserves privacy so even excluding the discussion above, that alone is enough to ensure everyone has it. I don't want someone else deciding "how much privacy WE really need." Please just speak for yourself - if you don't want privacy, that is your choice, but don't impose your judgments on the rest of the world. That is wrong and immoral in a free society. |

As the current state of science, it's rather a philosophical problem. Design a PoW function that only a human can solve, but a machine can (easily and accurately) verify for corectness. When you do this, you will be a new Satoshi  Yes, that would be a big deal - essentially proving that the Turing test can’t be satisfied, while allowing a machine to prove that it can’t be satisfied. |

If you think you know at least some of the password, you may want to try btcrecover. There's a tutorial on the github page. BTW, there's an Electrum subforum, you might want to try and post there instead. Thank you unamis76 - I've read through BTCRecover and cannot get it to work. Do you think it will help here? It should help since it works with Electrum and you have ideas about the password. You probably know, but whatever you do, don’t send anyone your wallet file. And make a backup or two of it now prior to messing with it. What didn’t work? |

Actually my problem is that i made a recive request on the old receiving address and now its pending
So tell me can we receive Bitcoin on old receiving address or now my btc are gone
If you are using most wallets, you can receive on an "old" address. Do you have the private key for this old address still? If you are asking about an old exchange address, that would depend on the exchange and their policies. |

I would question the methodology Meyer is using to extrapolate the price trend. I'm not an expert in market technical analysis, but even I know that moving averages are not an indicator of future prices at all. Maybe everyone is feeling confident about the $5000 mark being definitively crossed, but the volumes taking us there have not been exactly confidence inspiring to me.
And it would not suprise me if these (very optimistic) price outlooks we've been receiving are either notably interrupted or outright reversed instead. Don't get me wrong, I'm bullish long-term about Bitcoin, but the short-term isn't necessarily as obstacle free as the recent consensus suggests. Quite often, carefully doing the opposite of a widespread sentiment is the best investment decision (i.e. be greedy when all are afraid, and afraid when all are greedy).
You are probably right. But giving the number of doublings we’ve had since mid-2010, 1 or 2 more doesn’t seem that difficult. 😂 |

Your assumption is completely wrong. There is no "number of transactions needed to be confirmed before a block is added to the chain". That is not how Bitcoin works. A block is a collection of transactions and transactions are confirmed by being included in a block. There is not a separate process that makes a transaction confirmed. It is part of block creation and mining. A block must have at least one transaction, the coin generation transaction (also called a coinbase transaction, not to be confused with transactions made by Coinbase the company). A block can have just the coinbase transaction, and any number of transactions until the block weight limit is reached. This means that it can have anywhere from one transaction to several thousands of transactions. A good place to read about how Bitcoin works is the documentation on bitcoin.org. I really appreciate the reply and its from a moderator.  I am honestly still confused with what you said above since it is totally far from my assumptions. I have been re-reading your reply until now and got some of the points you stated. Nevertheless i will visit the lonk you have give and will continue from there. . P.S. You mentioned: This means that it can have anywhere from one transaction to several thousands of transactions.Do this also mean that even with only one transaction a miner can be given a reward for confirming it? Again, maybe my assumptions is still incorrect. Yes, a miner will get the same block reward regardless of the number of transactions included in the block. Transaction fees (which are in addition to the block reward) would likely be less for a block with few transactions vs a lot of transactions. (I say likely less because that one transaction could have a huge fee attached to it). |

Hi there,
as a software developer I am trying to learn bitcoin internals. What is the fastest way to download the database? When I run Bitcoin Core it is going to take many weeks. I have throughput to download it faster, so this is not my bottleneck.
I found many pages in the internet regarding bootstrap.dat, but in some of them it was said that it is obsolete information and now there should be another format of the database or something like that, this is how I understood it, maybe incorrectly.
Thanks
The fastest way is almost always to let Bitcoin Core download the block chain. |

I wonder what his definition of “high net worth” is. Kind of meaningless otherwise. What is the cutoff?
$1 million US?
$5 million US?
$10 million US?
$20 million US?
$50 million US?

This eliminates some uncertainty and as an early mover, may convince others to follow them.

Hi everyone, I've read up on the close-to-impossibility of randomly generating a private key which matches a given public address (e.g. grains of sand analogy). I'm still trying to answer a few of my own questions, however. My current questions relate to this: http://directory.io/- What's to stop someone simply using this website to look up a particular address and find the corresponding private key? - Is the list simply so large that it would take an eternity to actually find the relevant address with a computer program? - I'm assuming this list has code behind it and it generates each page as required - i.e. it's not a static list? - Why did this database require such a huge amount of computing power if the list is dynamically populated? I find this list totally fascinating! I might even send a donation at some point... Thanks for any help. Agnosticus Ok, you have to understand what that website is. It is not a page after page list of key pairs, it is a real time calculation of those pairs. If you trying to crawl the site, there would be only one page, not millions. The page calculates and lists the page worth of key pairs, using the page number as a reference point. Each requested page is created at the moment the client requests the page from the server. Therefore, there is no parsing the site as a whole or searching it in that way. Look up how the page number is used in the equation and maybe that will be a starting point for you. No, if you try and crawl that site there will be a (practically) infinite number of pages. Google alone has about 45000 pages index, all dynamically generated. https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&q=site%3Adirectory.io&oq=site%3Adirectory.ioKind of like Google has about 42 million pages from finance.yahoo.com indexed. Most are dynamically generated for various stock symbols and the related pages for each, etc: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Afinance.yahoo.com |
