1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is there any point buying ASICs anymore on: July 06, 2017, 07:53:23 AM
New to cryptocurrencys, am I better off investing in a multiple gpu rig and run on multiple coins or buying ASICs. Will there still be profit in cryptocurrencies still in 2 years with multiple and adding gpu's and to the setup in general or will I have to switch eventually ? I understand this is a "market" if you will that will require my effort and time and I'm not just gonna buy these rigs and expect money to fall at my feet if your thinking that


27 cents aud per unit is my current electricity in Perth
6 solar panels (can't find out what kWh there doing but they save A LOT of current bill)
and let's say $10000 to invest

Cheers

Can't really give you advice wether or not it would be wise to buy an altcoin ASIC (be it scrypt, X11,...). If you're interested, you can just look up each asic's specs, look at whitch coin you can mine with said asic, use a mining calculator and see how long it'll take to break even (given the current diff and altcoin price). Base your purchase habit on the break even time Wink
If it takes to long to break even, you might be better off buying GPU's, since you'll always be able to find a coin to mine with them, and there is a good resale market when you're done mining...

There are 2 things i can tell you for sure:

1) @27 cents, you should stay away from bitcoin mining...
2) i have about 15 solar panels on my roof, and they do not cover our electricity bill completely (just the household's electricity bill, i'm not mining anymore). Using cheap solar power is only profitable if you have overproduction. If you don't produce sufficient energy to cover your family's power usage, you're still mining with 27 cents/Kwu power...

I just updated the OP with the link to my profile

http://profiles.myfreecams.com/Pumpkinpanda



I see you're already accepting escrow and giving away vouches, that's a very good start...
I'd also suggest you taking a picture (or a small video), completely SFW, of you holding a piece of paper with your forum name and today's date... That way you can prove you're not some guy sitting behind his pc trying to troll the community.

Personally, you're not really my type, but i think with the way you constructed your post, you should be able to do some business on this forum... Good luck!
3  Economy / Services / Re: Paying By Signing a Message with your BTC Wallet! on: May 03, 2017, 11:20:19 AM
I have .30 BTC, If i signed a messages for you, How much you will pay to me?

Apperantly 0.0012 BTC, but if i was you i would ask him to pay first because you have been much longer here.
You can also get byteball by yourself and sell it for BTC if you'd like, here is the link https://byteball.org/
It is pretty simple thing to do.

Wil you elaborate it please? Actually how can i do that? I have visite byteball.org but what i have to do there?

download, install and sync the wallet, then start a chat with the bot: byteball:A2WMb6JEIrMhxVk+I0gIIW1vmM3ToKoLkNF8TqUV5UvX@byteball.org/bb#0000

Recently There's a Virus I am victim of it and some of my friends, clients etc are affected too. This is called Copy-Paste Virus.
Please be careful while you paste a BTC address or Copy an Address.

The virus works like-- You copied a BTC address to send and while you paste it, It changed to other address and the funds sends to other account.



This virus exists since at least several years, it existed when i first registered on this forum, and it'll probably continue to exist for times to come.
However, a warning like the one you posted here from time to time is a good thing... It keeps people vigilant Smiley

Always check the first couple of characters and the last couple of characters when copy-pasting... It's allmost impossible for a virus to generate enough private keys to match the first 4-5 characters AND the last 4-5 characters whithout the end user noticing lag...
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Start a new coin on: March 06, 2017, 09:31:50 AM
Starting a new coin is really easy if you're just going to clone an existing one... I made a couple testcoins in the past to learn about the protocol.

https://themerkle.com/altcoins-dying-make-one-hour/

This being said, it's not a good idear to keep dumping new alt's onto the world... IF you want to generate a new coin, at least make some usefull adaptations, so your coin is better than the original one. Also, creating a coin means a lot of work:

- updating your code
- compiling
- creating a community
- getting your coin on exchanges
- making sure there are pool available
- ...

All in all, you need a lot of coding knowledge and intimate knowledge of the protocol, plus a big team in order to do something like this.
6  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum PHP Commands on: February 23, 2017, 02:43:31 PM
How i generate new addresses? like bitcoind (generatenewaddress)...

I'm not familiar with this library, nor with the electrum json-rpc api (i always use the core implementation's json-rpc api), but judging from this page:
http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/merchant.html#create-a-signed-payment-request

I suppose it has to be something like this:
$response = $electrum->addrequest(1, "test");

This is completely untested (i don't have an electrum daemon running, nor an nginx stack, nor a rPi,... So i can only point towards what i think might be a sollution... It's up to you to test and debug).
7  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum PHP Commands on: February 23, 2017, 09:58:29 AM
Php is works fine..

But "nginx" my error.log is this;

Code:
2017/02/23 09:33:24 [error] 776#0: *5 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function curl_init() in /var/www/html/electrum.php on line 39" while reading response header from upstream, client: 192.168.2.203, server: your_server_ip, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock:", host: "192.168.2.158"

I'm working on raspberry pi and connect with ssh... Please helpp  Huh Undecided


Seems like
Code:
sudo apt-get install php5-curl

might do the trick Wink (at least, it might solve this issue... There is no guarantee that everything else will work, but you'll have to tackle one problem at a time)
(sollution = untested, i don't have a rPi running nginx, so i cannot test out the sollution)

don't forget to either restart nginx/php-fpm, or just to plain restart your box just to be sure...
8  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum PHP Commands on: February 23, 2017, 09:46:03 AM
Hello everyone.. I want use, electrum daemon on my php pages without blockchain...

Electrum daemon and rpc port works fine... I use this electrum php lib; (My electrum version 2.6.4)
https://github.com/shaman/php-electrum-library

and my php page is this;

Code:
<?php
require_once'electrum.php';

$electrum = new Electrum('127.0.0.1'7777);

$response $electrum->getbalance();

echo 
"$response";
?>


But page is empty.. I see only white page. Please help me... Thanks.

I'm not familiar with the php-electrum-library, but your first order of business would be to:

1) create a testpage to see if php works fine... For example test.php
Code:
<?php
phpinfo
();
?>

If this page doesn't load properly, there is a problem with your lamp setup to begin with...

2) look at your server logs, the apache errorlogs are usually located in /var/log/apache2/error.log
Tail the errorlog and reload the page
Code:
tail -f /var/log/apache2/error.log
if you see errors appearing, they should point you towards what's wrong, if you have no clue => google is your friend

3) see what's in your variable, there are 2 ways of doing this:
Code:
<?php
require_once'electrum.php';

$electrum = new Electrum('127.0.0.1'7777);

$response $electrum->getbalance();

echo 
"<pre>";
print_r($response);
echo 
"</pre>";
?>


or

Code:
var_dump($response);

BTW, did you verify the prereqs?

I'm trying to ask find free and not VPN that is effective which provides another IP incase you want to login from another country. Which one are you guys recommending? I won't be using it regularly but it can solve my problem login to facebook.

Altough i'm not completely sure if you want only free VPN's (can't really make sense of the sentence :"I'm trying to ask find free and not VPN"), but i'd like to recommand earthVPN.

$40/year gives you access to VPN servers all over the globe, some allow P2P downloading, others do not... But they were always stable when i used them in the past.

They even have coupon codes => http://couponfollow.com/site/earthvpn.com
10  Bitcoin / Mycelium / Re: problem of variable adress in myscellium HD on: January 18, 2017, 03:01:32 PM
I created a wallet in myscellium wallet . There was a HD wallet and then I made export the private key .
Now when I made a single transaction the address of wallet changed .

Now my question is , can I still receive bitcoin at the old address every time .

please help only those person who knows this exactly .

It's hard to understand what you're asking, but if i understand correctly, you just created an HD wallet, created a first address, received BTC and now you ask if you can re-use this address, since you now see a second receiving address and no longer the first one?

The answer is: yes

An HD wallet manages all addresses in the wallet, both used and unused Smiley
11  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trouble encrypting an existing paper wallet. on: January 09, 2017, 07:50:13 AM
But this brings up another question:

All of the paper wallets I've seen or used contain QR codes for each key, as well as a string of numbers beneath these keys. If these are the keys, then what is the point of encrypting something that is already in plain view on the wallet itself?

Well, you can generate a QR code from the encrypted private key to Wink

Usually, an encrypted paper wallet contains both the encrypted private key and the address both in textual format as a qr code, so you cannot use the private key without either knowing or brute forcing the password.
12  Economy / Lending / Re: Need loan 0.1 BTC on: December 09, 2016, 12:28:35 PM

It's true. This is a Non Collateral Loan Request.
As i recall and just check it, the only lender that can have the control of your Account and you still can use it is Lone Shark.

So i will suggest you to contact him through his Thread.

I think, theoretically, this shouldn't be to hard
1) give your details to a lender
2) the lender changes the password
3) open a teamviewer session (lender gets to see borrowers PC), the lender enters the username/new password

The borrower can now use the forum as long as he/she doesn't log out, but cannot change the details like email or password (since changing these details would require the password which is only known to the borrower).

The lender could still run a keylogger in the background tough...  Roll Eyes

What worries me more is that from the last 94 posts of the OP, only 8 were made outside of gambling/lending...

zo is het wel, wd40

het is gewoon eerst een beetje pielen met zeer kleine bedragen, met verschillende wallets enzo, je hebt gelijk





Als je echt met BTC wil leren spelen raad ik je aan om misschien wat testnet wallets aan te maken, en wat testnet BTC to claimen op een testnet faucet... Op die manier leer je paper wallets maken, paper wallets uitlezen, transacties maken, offline storage aanmaken,... Zonder risico

May be scam, look at adsence banner at the bottom of the page. The owner may just want traffic lol , wait, if this is scam, i will use proxy and click on banner lol

Even better would be to report the webmaster to adsense. They don't really like members that generate forced or fake traffic in any way  Grin
15  Other / Meta / Re: [Howto] sell my bitcointalk account on: October 27, 2016, 07:10:39 AM
So, do i need to make a new (newbie) account in order to sell my old account?

There is no rule that says you have to do this, but that's what most sellers do to protect the identity of the sold account, yes... If they try to sell the account they're currently use, other senior members will tag the account as sold.
Truth be told, by tagging sold accounts, those members probably saved hundreds of innocent people getting scammed, because rather often, those sold accounts are used to start a scam.
16  Other / Off-topic / Re: How old is your main computer? on: October 14, 2016, 06:15:04 AM
The laptop i use the most frequent is my workpc. It's currently 2 years old and i get a new one every 4 years....
Runs windows 7 pro, i5, 8 Gb ram, 256 Gb SSD

At home, i use an 7 or 8 years old laptop, it's still 32 bit, 5400 rpm hd. I've installed openSuse on it, since this distro still builds their binaries for both 32 and 64 bit at the same time, so i get regular updates.

When i need some more power, i use my wife's laptop, it's also an i5 with SSD, but it only has 2 Gb ram. It runs debian.
17  Economy / Auctions / Re: faucet+doubler script 2016 NEW full auto on: September 28, 2016, 11:23:39 AM
Seems like you're selling the script for 0.2 here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1629687.msg16389623#msg16389623

Isn't it a bit strange to put the script you're selling in auction with a starting price equal to the asking price in the other thread? I guess everybody who"s interested will just buy the script trough the other thread and save himself the increment... Just my opinion tough.

Ik neem aan dat je multibit HD hebt, aangezien de classic al een hele tijd ungesupporteerd is?

Als ik correct ben, moet je gewoon zeker zijn dat je je seed words ergens genoteerd hebt, dan kan er eigenlijk niks gebeuren.
Zelfs als je je usbstick zou kwijtgeraken kan je je wallet toch gewoon restoren met die seedwords.

20  Local / Markt / Re: Koop nu uw bitcoins 3% onder de actuele marktwaarde! on: August 18, 2016, 10:51:09 AM
Hebben jullie een website en een adres, want om eerlijk te zijn is het me niet 100% duidelijk wat jullie exact doen. BTW: het zou ook interessant zijn om een emailadres te geven wanneer je in een post vraagt om te mailen bij vragen ;-)

Als ik bij jullie bitcoins kan aankopen aan 3% onder de marktwaarde, vanwaar komt die 3% extra winst op mijn bankrekening? 't Lijkt me toch de bedoeling dat ik bij zulke transacties gewoon geld aan jullie geef en dat jullie dadelijk een transactie aanmaken met als output een adres van mij, en dat ik evt kan blijven zitten tot er een paar confirmations zijn.
