I'm sorry that you got scammed but it was pretty dumb of your part to trade with someone like him without researching a little bit. Even with escrow.

How can you trade such big amount with someone who just got reported for scamming 1 BTC yesterday?



Anyway, you still need to post your proofs. Use this format for your thread:

14562  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Sending an exact amount with fee's? added or not? on: July 09, 2017, 02:54:51 PM
Look what is going to happen:

Typically, your wallet software will ask you how much is the amount you want to send to someone. You will type for example BTC0.05 and the software will probably show how much extra you are going to pay for the transaction fees. Depending on the software, they will show a few selections for you to choose how fast you want your transaction to get confirmed.

In the end you are going to spend 0.051 from your balance (0.05 + 0.001 fee) and your receiver address will end up getting 0.05 in total.

I hope you undestand now.
14563  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: TREZOR Hardware wallets? on: July 09, 2017, 02:47:55 PM
Question guys.

What are the steps that I need to aware if I am using Trezor across different laptops/PCs. I am not at home half of the time and it would be good if a family member can operate trezor on their laptop if needed.
They just need physical access to the Trezor device and the PIN code. They can't access the wallet if they don't have the Trezor in hands at the time.
Just teach them how to open/use the software and how to send transactions.

Or if you want to buy one device for every member of your family, you can use the seed from the first device to import the same wallet in multiple Trezors.

First, this site is an blatant scam.

Second, don't waste your time or money searching for websites like this. They are ALL made with one purpose in mind: stealing people's money. Or do you legit believe that you can earn $50/hour forever or double your money just by depositing one single time in a random website? Use your common sense.

Which app is that exactly? You coulse use a third party exchange to sell your Bitcoins for cash.

e.g: Coinbase, LocalBitcoins or Kraken.
14566  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is that safe to buy a used hardware wallet ? on: July 09, 2017, 12:43:48 AM
OP should really just lock this thread since it's starting to become one of those spots where newbies come to spam nonsense and misinformation. His question already got answered multiple times and there is no reason to pump this anymore.



but trezor is really expensive and if i have more than 100 bitcoin, i will buy 3 trezor and safe my bitcoin to that wallet.
I really don't see why anyone would need multiple hardware wallets to store their coins.
14567  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin after 1st august = Unstoppable? on: July 08, 2017, 06:41:20 PM
I would say that Bitcoin's biggest obstacle to its growth today would have been removed. Which would allow us to break down barriers in the price and in the acceptance of the cryptocurrency.

I know in fact that high fees and confirmation time are the main reason why Bitcoin is not yet being implemented at all levels of society. And a possible correction to these problems is of extreme importance for global acceptance.

Try to offer a coffe shop to accept Bitcoin today, and make him start using Bitcoin knowing he needs to charge 20% more of the product in fees and wait a few hours to get his money. Something like that does not seem so tempting.

I can't understand what you are asking.
How did you got hacked? Did you mistyped or clicked into a fake version of the wallet or something like that?

FYI the real url to the website is https://www.myetherwallet.com

If that's what happened, unfortunately there is nothing you can do about that, and your coins are lost forever.
14569  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: ICO ban for the US citizens on: July 08, 2017, 03:52:08 PM
because their governemt protects them from scam

what is stopping someone from mining big amount of coin and dump it for bitcoin to buy this ico scam? how can the government enforce rules on something so out of hands?

if investors really want to be protected they just need to avoid being scammed by ignore all the ico, i don't think they need a law for the common sense...
You forgot that those "investors" are always looking for easy money. And because of that they don't see ICOs as a way to help and be part of a promising project, but a quick way to buy those tokens cheap and dump them after the release of the project. That's why they blindly invest in all new ICOs in the market.

Yes, they can't really control them. But the same way the US government wants to protect their citizens from fraud schemes by going after them, they could go after ICOs because they are not regulated and most of them only care about the money collected during the crowdfunding phase.

Do you really think those governments should just let those schemes operate without any control and just say to their citizens "if you don't want to lose money, don't invest in scams" ?
14570  Economy / Invites & Accounts / Re: HitLeap Accounts on: July 08, 2017, 02:34:02 PM
IMO those accounts are extremely overpriced, and because of that, I don't think you will be able to sell too many of those accounts.
I have sold a lot of accounts in my old days and recently I sold an old account with 26k minutes for ~$2.5, or something like $1 per 10k minutes.

Also, hitleap isn't that profitable anymore as it was some years ago. So I don't know how things are working nowadays.

Hello! It's always great to see more people learning about Ethereum.

Gwei is just a smaller denomination of Ether, at 1X10^-9 ETH. A wei is the smallest unit of Ethereum you can have, at 1x10^-18 ETH.

Ether is used to purchase Gas, which is required to run smart contracts and submit transactions to Ethereum. Gas is the primary method through which miners processing smart contracts get paid. Each instruction sent to the Ethereum Virtual Machine to process a transaction or smart contract costs a specific amount of Gas. If the required amount of Gas is not provided to the transaction, it will fail before completion.

Gas is used to ensure that even though the price of Ether may fluctuate, miners will always have a standard from which to measure the processing work they do. When you prepare a transaction, you also send a "bid" on how much Ether you are willing to pay for the Gas costs to process your smart contract or transaction.  Your Ethereum account is charged directly for the gas used in processing your request at the rate that you bid (same as a traditional 'transaction fee', so, for example, sending 5 ETH might cost a total of 5.0001 ETH). So your 200,000 gas limit really doesn't have a constant ETH value, it depends on your bid.

When you request that a miner add your transaction to the blockchain, the miner has to add it to a pool of pending transactions. The miner selects the transactions that have the highest reward for processing first, so the transactions that have high "bids" on gas prices will be most likely to be added first. The same goes for smart contracts.  

So, in answer to your question, it's not so much the amount of Gas as the conversion rate you specify that dictates if your transactions are processed faster or slower. If you offer higher rates than the network average, you'll likely get processed faster, and vice versa.

14572  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Blockchain.info blocking accounts? on: July 08, 2017, 02:21:11 AM
Running a full node means you are already validating blocks and transactions. You can either download Bitcoin Core or Bitcoin Knots (haven't tested personally) to run a node.
This is known as mining?
No. A node is just a software that contains the whole blockchain and it's always listening with other nodes for new blocks, checking if the transactions and blocks are valid, and validating their own copy of the blockchain.

A miner is basically the above, but it's also responsible for creating new blocks with transactions relayed from other nodes and inserting them in the Blockchain.

What is the difference for being from GeForce? Can we just activate the key on Steam and play like we have bought directly from a third party reseller?

Do you still have them?
14574  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam report BEWARE ! jamesclef is a scammer on: July 07, 2017, 10:12:43 PM
Unfortunately I do not think you will see your money again. Honestly, $50 is certainly not a small amount for most people in this forum and OP is a newbie account created 4 days ago. I honestly do not know how you could trust him enought to send the money first. For most users, even $5 would be enought to scam using an account you will never miss to use again.

P.s: Reference link could be the thread where OP is selling his account.
14575  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Poloniex Awaiting Approval on: July 07, 2017, 07:47:02 PM
This is a normal situation for Poloniex this days. Just make a quick search and you will see the amount of threads in here and on Reddit about Poloniex delaying peoples withdraw and open support tickets for days without any answer.

I believe you will get your coins, but it may take some time and there is really nothing you can do about that.

Some examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3CFXc3WyVA

You should read this thread and remake your report in the proper format to make things easier.
Also, take a better picture since I believe no one can read what is written in your receipt.

edit: looks like you just edited your post with a better picture
14578  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: How long that transaction will unconfirmed? on: July 07, 2017, 06:24:59 PM
25 sat/byte is very far from the regular fee necessary to get your fee confirmed in the same day.

To get your transaction confirmed in 10-15 minutes, you would need to pay a fee of at least 320 sat/byte according to bitcoinfees.21.co or 209 sat/byte according to estimatefee.com

This fee is so low that your transaction is probably going to take a few more days to get confirmed. And there is still the chance of never getting there.
14579  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [Unofficial] Exodus Wallet | Multi-Currency | Built-in Exchange on: July 07, 2017, 05:36:21 PM
They aren't going to add signing messaged because the vast majority of their customers don't know what that is or will never need to, and then they add an advanced feature to control the amount of P2P nodes you can connect too?

Pretty sure that more people would prefer to sign a message.
I believe in this aswell.

They also don't want to add the option to customize fees on your transaction because newbies would end up putting a fee too small making the transaction to never be confirmed. But I don't see how adding a option to sign a message would bring something not beneficial to users.

I sincerely want to use this wallet. But the developers are not giving me enought reasons to do this change.
14580  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Whats the most secure wallet outside of hardware? on: July 07, 2017, 04:42:39 PM
Just don't use Coinbase. They are more of a place to buy and sell Bitcoins. You don't have control of your private keys, so they can go offline, freeze your account or don't let you spend your coins whenever they want.

MyEtherWallet is safe. But it's an Ethereum only wallet. If you just want to store ETH, use them. For Bitcoins you will need to use another wallet.

What you should do: Download Electrum and store your Bitcoins there. When your hardware wallet arrives, transfer your coins to your new address.
