Now, this is my theory about your account:

You have made 23 posts (that were not hidden for me).
You made one post in december 2018, 2 bursts in januari 2019 (totalling 8 posts). I guess these posts were either made by an account seller, or they were made in a futile attempt to reach junior member rank so your shilling attempts would have been taken more seriously by other members (but the introduction of the merit system was just in time... januari 2018 IIRC).

At this point it was clear you would always be stuck with a newbie rank, so you started to shill for freewallet anyways (as was your initial purpose): out of the 14 posts you made after januari 2019, 10 were made to protect freewallet. A lot of times when freewallet faced a serious accusation you popped up to defend them evenough the evidence was usually pretty clear.

All other posts made by this account seem like "fluff" to me, just basic shatter to fill the post history so it isn't too obvious you're a freewallet shill.

So... Tell me the truth... Is this theory correct?

Now, freewallet... I'll be honest: when one of your sockpuppets enters a thread to defend you, i usually feel this action is contraproductive for your case. If you need a shill/alt/sockpuppet coming in to defend you and say positive things about your service in the thirth person, my gut usually tells me you have something to hide... Same here: i would have given you the benefit of the doubt (innocent untill proven guilty), but since the shill army has entered the discussion, i'm inclined to add more value to the accuser's claim... Nothing was proven tough...

I actually own both... And i can only say that they're both user-friendly.

Both have a nice gui (trezor is actually having a beta phase for their wallet application instead of their wallet website), both can be used together with electrum.

The big differences (IMHO):

ledger requires an app for each coin to be installed on the device. A nano S has enough space to hold like 5-15 apps (some apps share code, so you can fit more of them on the limited space, other apps are really big, so there is no fixed number). Trezor works differently, no apps are installed on the device's memory, but some altcoins are a bit trickyer to "install" a wallet for. So, if you're going to be holding a limited amount of rare altcoins or tokens, a Nano S *might* be easyer to operate, if you're sticking to btc and a very few top-altcoins, a trezor might be better... but i'd look at this on a case-by-case scenario...

Ledger is closed source, trezor is open source. It's security-by-obscurity vs peer review...


So, it basically boils down to the price... If you're money-conteous, i'd pick the cheapest one, since i'd trust both of them to do the job... They both have some drawbacks, but nothing that should keep you awake at night

It's an opt-in RBF tx! Your wallet gui should enable you to increase the fee...

Nonetheless, I pushed it to antpool, they usually give an accelerated tx a slightly higher priority, but don't expect miracles.


@9sat/byte, your fee is to low to use viabtc's free tx accelerator.

Those tools you used are worthless. They just rebroadcast your transaction, but if your original transaction was broadcasted less than 2 weeks ago, and the mempool wasn't overflowing, they add nothing...

At this moment, you have a couple options:

• it's an opt-in RBF transaction, you should be able to "bump" the fee to a decent level
• Wait. A 9 sat/byte fee will usually be confirmed after a couple of days... Depending on the state of the mempool
• Do a CPFP
• Pay a miner to include your tx in the block he's trying to solve. Do NOT hire some random guy contacting you trough PM tough!!! only use big, established mining pools!!! Viabtc for example

I don't believe you purchased an "invite", have an account on this site or purchased any "dirty" bitcoin... I do believe that you're either the owner of this site, or a shill that's being payed to promote this site.

Why else would you create an account on this forum and make your very first post a post dedicated to criticizing the first non-shill that spoke up in this thread.

But what i believe isn't even relevant to this thread... It's about you (the owner) being able to proof you're a real service. And so far, you've shown that your service is "to good to be true, so it probably is", it's built on the pretense a hacker is smart enough to steal BTC but not smart enough to use a mixer, and you've clearly employed (or generated) a bunch of alts or shills to continuously bump your thread and make it look like a real business.
All these things are big, shiny, red flags...

I agree with LFC_Bitcoin

On the other hand, i would ask you if you have any other altcoins you can use as collateral. It's obvious you cannot send tokens on the ETH chain (due to the fact you don't have enough ETH to pay the fee for your current token transfer), but that doesn't mean you're not holding other coins (LTC, DOGE, XMR,...).

If you have other coins as collateral, and you're willing to pay a decent amount of intrest, people might be able to help you out.

I'm going to stop you right there.. I've seen people scam others for less than $1 on this forum. If we'd conclude that you're not going to scam for $5, we open ourselfs up to hundreds of newbies who ask a loan of <$5 with the intention of dissapearing instead of repaying

I've been on bitcointalk since 2014, never scammed anybody, never doxxed, never plagiarised, don't care for drama threads... I'm 99%  >90% here for technical stuff, because i love the technology that's discussed here but not the drama that's always unfolding in front of our eyes. I was banned for a couple of days once because i participated in a giveaway that was started in the wrong subforum, that's about it.
I have 4 neg tags, 3 of them come from game-protect (so i consider them a badge of honour instead of a neg tag). The last one was from some guy who took offence by the way i was actually helping people. He didn't offer any assistance, but felt that the way i assisted them was "wrong". He actually called me "the most dangerous person on bitcointalk"...   But every other tag i have is positive-ish...

Even after all this time, i'm fluctuating in and out DT2. But the thing is: I really couldn't care less.
Sure, it's an ego thing: it's always nice to know people trust you... But if you're not trading on this forum (wich neither of us seems to be doing), how is somebody actually going to trust you? I mean, as long as people don't know you in person, or haven't succesfully trusted you with big amounts of money, why would they actually trust you...

At least, that's my takeaway... But to be honest, the times i'm in DT2, I tend to put more scrutiny on myself when tagging somebody or supporting (or opposing) flags. It adds a tiny bit of stress to my day (not a lot tough) since my ratings are shown as "trusted" and the flags i support/oppose can actually become active/inactive due to me... So, i really couldn't care less if i'm in DT or not.

Just my 2 satoshi's tough...

EDIT: PS: for what it's worth, eventough i don't agree with your stands on the corona-epidemic, i do trust you... I wouldn't take any of your virus-related advice, but if you'd ask me if i'd trust you to hold a couple hundred bucks of my funds, i'd probably say that you're trust-worthy

A couple posts above, you gave following answer:

I do speak a reasonable amount of French (eventough you are not allowed to post non-english posts outside the regional subforum). But what i'm seeing here is that you named your wallet wallet222.dat. So, if there is no wallet.dat @c:\python27, the command will fail...

Maybe you could try:

Just on a sidenote, this debate has been going on for days, and i sometimes feel like we're going around in circles on this one... Is there anybody you trust for 100% that's tech-savvy and is able to help you with this task? Even if you're tech-savvy yourself, it wouldn't hurt to have a second pair of eyes looking at this thread while having physical access to your system (and the wallet-file itself).

Well, maybe it's due to the fact i haven't used any desktop environment in a while, but i think using a gui overcomplicates things quite a bit.

The simpelest way would be

• open a terminal
• gpg --gen-key
• leave default settings, enter name + email
• chose a password

done

No need for all those gui clicks'n'misses... Just open a terminal, enter one command, follow the wizard and you're done...

Well, that's the point... You can't be a member of this forum UNTILL you are no longer banned. This means: creating a ban appeal thread and ONLY posting in said thread. No matter how many accounts you have/make, as long as a single one of them is banned, you are 100% restricted to posting in one thread in the meta subforum, and you can only use this thread to discuss your ban.

I know this sounds harsh, I didn't make the rules, but by discussing anything besides your ban, you are violating the rules and you'll probably end up getting this account banned aswel.

Well, let's start with educating newbies: you were banned due to plagiarism (at least, i suppose you were banned... you never said you were in your post, but the punishment for plagiarism is a permanent ban, so i  can only suppose you got your account banned).

Since you said this happened a couple weeks ago, and this account was created less than a week ago, i can only conclude you created a new account after your first account was banned.

Now, here comes the education: after your initial ban, you *should* have taken the time to read the rules... You were banned, and since you created this post, i can only assume you were unhappy about this, so the least you should have done is read the rules before starting to post again...

Now, since it's clear you didn't read the rules, i'll just quote from the list of rules that can be found in this sticky topic:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0


The correct sequence would have been
1) you were banned, for whatever reason
2) you wait for your ban to expire, or in case this takes to long (or if you have a permanent ban): you are allowed to create a new account and make one topic in meta to discuss your ban. Posting outside this one topic is considered ban evasion.
3) you either get a pardon from Theymos and he unbans you, or you are no longer allowed to post on bitcointalk. Do realise it's you that is banned, not your account. If you create a new account this is called ban evasion, which will get you banned again (actually, you never have been unbanned to begin with)

This topic pops up every couple of weeks... Just use the search function instead of opening a new topic

Click on the magnifying glass at the top right corner, copy the title of this topic and paste it in the google search form of bitcointalk:

Or click here, this is the page where you'll end after you execute these steps

Sorry to hear this has happened to you... If you want a good response to your thread, and you want it to be seen by freewallet and other members that specialise in tagging scammers, move your topic to the correct subforum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 (just hit ctrl-F and search for "move topic", then follow the wizard to move your post to the scam accusation subforum)

Also, use the correct format, as described in this sticky thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260073.0

Before stumbling upon your thread, i already posted in his scamthread warning others not to fall for his trap... But he used his shills to fill the complete first page before i discovered him, so his first page is still filled with newbie (shill) vouches.
Tagging seems like a sensible idear.

So, you're selling codes to a fishy site using an autobuy platform while all your reviews are given by newbie accounts with 0 trust and allmost 0 history.

What could possibly go wrong  
In case somebody is missing the obvious sarcasm: you could get scammed at the autobuy platform, OR the OP could go for a double whammy and let you pay to receive an invite to a site that was setup to scam people...

There is no way a malicious user is going to sell you "dirty" BTC for 30-50% off, he'll just run it trough a couple mixers/coinjoins/exchange for XMR/hotwallets him/herself and only lose 5-10% instead.

For everybody reading this topic: if something looks to good to be true, it usually is... Don't get scammed...

The offers that are overpaying the most state that the payment can be done by "any nigerian bank". Smells really fishy to me.
If something looks like it's to good to be true, it allmost always is.

I'd advise you to stay away.

In that case, you probably did mine, but you probably didn't solve any blocks, so (unless you bought or traded LTC) your wallet probably wasn't funded.
That being said, it doesn't hurt to hold on to a couple of copy's of your wallet.dat... If you can open said wallet, you can always try to get a list of addresses and verify if they are unfunded using a blockchain explorer. Don't get your hopes up tough...

It does mean you ran a miner, might even have been the cpu miner that was included in the QT wallet... However, it does not mean you actually solved a block.

Do you find any lines containing  the string "AddToWallet " in your debug.log? An other string to search for is "proof-of-work found"...

No problem... I'm happy it worked.
At this moment, there are 2 options for this thread: if you want to learn what went wrong the first time, you could keep this discussion live. If you're happy and don't want to investigate and learn, you should probably close this thread... Otherwise it'll stay live for days/weeks/months and people will come in and try to help you with a problem that has already been solved

yup, these settings should be fine...

Seems like you messed up the url there... I get the error 'image not found' when i try to visit your screenshot...
