Sometimes it needs about 10 minutes to 'verify' it Ç.Ç Why exactly does it take this eternity?(I got curious  ) , I imagine it was clear to you after all these answers that the problem is there. If you have to spend 10 minutes solving the captcha, I guess there is some problem at your end. It hardly takes a minute for me and I am asked about 1 out of 10 times only when I log in. We need such additional requirements so as to prevent mass registrations here. Without this image captcha, one can make 1000s of accounts here in few minutes with the use of tools of burp suite.
The captcha comes from Google, and it gets more complicate and slower to solve if your connection is less trusted. I assume OP uses Tor, and indeed, it can take very long to solve. Even worse, it can end in a timeout too.
As LoyceV already stated, it takes longer when you are using "abusive" IPs. (Tor, Free/common VPN ips.) As to why, probably because google doesn't want to have bots registering hundreds of gmail accounts/spamming their search engine ( although the latter seems a bit far-fetched, but is something that you'll endure aswell, it will think you're sending "automated queries", ( probably because there are so many people using that one IP at the same time.)) |

Who can I contact if I blocked my account? I was apparently blocked due to the fact that it was not on the topic written in the English-language forum
If you yourself blocked/locked your account, you can contact theymos, and he'll unlock/recover it if you have a way to prove ownership ( usually by signing an adress staked on your profile) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0But in this case it seems you got banned. You can try and ask the moderators to unban you, simply make a seperate topic in this forum section, but i doubt it'll happen. Hmm. The adress is not a bitcoin one, which might be a problem. Can you sign a message with the adress? Does the altcoin wallet support that? If not, you might be out of luck. If you are able to sign a message, theymos still might not recover your account See I very rarely recover accounts if you can't prove ownership as described above. There are alternative ways of proving ownership, but they take too much time. I think this would fall under an "Alternative way" |

my friend is banned for 10 days post how the solution will go forward? whether the account can be as whole as before or gain negative trust
Just waiting, and you ill see after that. Why is he get banned ? Do you have a problem with reading? Your *friend* was probably banned for participating in an on-forum altcoin giveaway (given the ban duration and the timing of this thread). As you may have guessed, the ban is temporary. He should wait it out since using any account he owns for anything except appealing his ban would be considered ban evasion.
As others have stated, the Trust system is a separate thing.
Also, just some advice, you are also probably going to end up being banned if you keep posting these garbled replies. It would be smart to somewhat improve your english skills before posting again. Just a suggestion.. |

I would suggest to not use Bittrex unless you have and willing to verify your account using your document such as Passport or ID Card.
I suggest not using bittrex under any circumstances even if you are willing to verify your account. there are other good exchanges like Binance that you can always use without the dirty history that bittrex has. my philosophy is that when someone (like bittrex owners) scams people once they will do it again if they get the chance to and I am not willing to give it to them. Do you have any proofs that they really scammed someone? Because I'm using them for quite some time and so far never faced any issues like what you mentioned above. Did they scam someone already or you're assuming that they can misuse your personal data in future? Yes, when we give our data online always there is concern that someone can misuse it. I got a fully verified account with them and my trading over there going quite smooth. I am the breathing proof, really. As Pursuer stated, they suddenly locked thousands of accounts, including mine. I wouldn't go as far to say that they stole the funds, but they indeed made them inaccessible without any warning (AFAIAA). The only way to get them back is to give them all my information, eg. passport etcetera. Which i'm really not comfortable with, since who knows what they'll suddenly do with that huh. So, my funds are just stuck there now. I wasn't even from any of these "Certain" countries, just EU. In comparison, Poloniex gave a 120 day warning to withdraw, and even after that period, you would still be able to withdraw, just not trade/deposit. |

Greetings,
Lets say i developed a web application that sends and receives bitcoin to and from users (such as online store), and then hosted that web application on a hosting service provider. how can i make sure that the hosting Owner / Manager won't compromise / steal key and password information and use it to login to my wallet and send bitcoins to his account ? after all, the process of (private key + public key + ScriptPubKey etc...) is done on their server which could be seen by them!!!
Use a reputable hosting service if you're working with alot of money etc. A company such as Amazon / DigitalOcean isn't going to risk their entire business/reputation just to steal a couple million from you. See this as reference. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7154006/should-i-how-do-i-protect-source-code-from-web-hostThere might be a way to encrypt all your data/wallets/ but even if that's possible, it's going to slow everything down and it'll just be a general pain in the a$$. Alternatively: Host your business yourself. I'm pretty sure you can buy hardware for servers online pretty easily, then you just have to place them in a datacenter. ( Which shouldn't be too hard if you have a thriving business.) |

Hi all, We would love to hear your views on the different wallets out there. PLEASE check out our website here: https://www.cryptowisser.com/wallets/ where we list 130+ wallets. The current favorites from the users seem to be: - Ledger Wallet; - Xapo Wallet; - Omni Wallet; and - Enjin Wallet. Do you agree with that toplist? Looking forward to hearing what you think! All the best, Cryptowisser It seems that in this case Favorites ≠ Safest. - Ledger S nano wallet is indeed fairly safe, especially when you keep it airgapped. I'd say it has a fair spot on your list, comparing it to the other wallets. - Xapo wallet, I'll sum up what's wrong. You have no control over your keys when storing them here. XAPO can run off with all your bitcoin anytime they want. Private keys to Xapo accounts are never given out to anyone - they are kept in a safe place for you. Xapo keeps most of your bitcoins in deep-cold storage, in offline servers that have never been online and will never be online. We have a process to move coins out of deep-cold storage once a day without ever exposing the private keys to the Internet. Xapo makes sure that private keys are never on your phone or your computer; private key security is always in our hands and if someone were to hack your device, they could never get your private keys because they are not there. Furthermore, correct me if i'm wrong, they process your withdrawals, like an exchange does. (unlike blockchain.info, where you still can control a little bit when and how you want to withdraw) - Omni Wallet, Looks confusing, it seems like both parties here have access to your private key, (You, and omni), although there's not much information available about it. https://www.cryptocompare.com/wallets/omniwallet/ states that you actually have no access at all to your keys, but this is refuted on the web page of the wallet itself. I'm slightly confused. -Enjin wallet, Seems like a decent wallet, Looks like enjin themselves have no access to your private keys, The Enjin Smart Wallet is engineered with military grade security. Your Private Keys and Recovery Phrases are stored only on your device using AES 256 encryption and never transmitted.
You can use your Recovery Phrase essentially as your Private Key as it allows you to fully own the wallet and the funds inside it. You can use it to import your wallet address into other software wallets and devices.
We do not store your keys on our servers. Looks like they also support a decent amount of ERC20 tokens for a mobile wallet. https://www.cryptocompare.com/wallets/enjin-wallet/ |

Hey guys, I want to start translating documents English-Spanish. I am native to both languages, and I am a Solutions Architect / Technical Consultant so Im very technical as well. I do translations at work all the time. I have been in Crypto for almost 2 years and I am an active Miner but I just recently decided to open an account here so my status shows as Newbie. I see that most bounties regos ask for links to previous translations but I do not have any to show, so I am never chosen. Even talking directly to Coin teams doesn't seem to help. I have talk to them and say: "Hey you are a new ICO/COIN and people do not believe in you but you want people to give your project a go right? well I am on the same boat, Try me and see!"  Can you guys recommend the best way to get exposure so I can get one job to prove myself? Thanks a lot! I guess you could do some translations for free, and then ask them to vouch for them if they think you did a good job, you can build up a bit of a portfolio that way. Working for free is obviously going to be annoying, but it might be worth it in the long run. Also, I do translations at work all the time. Why not include those in your portfolio? |

Buy cheap instagram followers 1K for 5 Dollarz in bitcoin Max 10k followers (50 Dollarz) per account. After payment delivery within 1 hour Settings must be on PUBLIC Do not think i will scam you for a few dollarz I can always give free 1k likes on one account to proof that i am legit. My JABBER instagram@xmpp.jp if you need to be talking 2 me. I wouldn't call it scamming, but when you're charging x10 the amount your competitors do, there's certainly something wrong. Unless of course, the followers you deliver are real, but something that detrimental to the pricing wouldn't have been left out right? https://justanotherpanel.com/services, 0.01$ per 1k likes, and 0.45$ per 1k ( I presume ) fake followers. |

Hey i noticed that my post and the activity is fully same but i saw many high level user who don't have the same activity and post. Like they have 1000 Post And 545 Activity.
But in my case this 2 things are equal. You can check my profile. Please Someone explain this matter.
It means that you are either posting equivalent to the amount of activity you can earn each 2 weeks ( which is 14, which means you post once a day on average), Or, that you have posted less than 14 times in previous activity periods, which means you still have potential activity left from these periods. Every period is two weeks, if you post once in a period, you will get the full amount of potential activity, but only 1 "real" activity for the post you made. The potential activity just stacks up, until ofcourse you outpost the amount of potential activity you can get, ( posting more than once a day on average), which is why so many "high level users" have a higher post count than activity. ( Because they, on average, post more than once a day.) How many two week periods you've posted in. Make one post in three periods and you have a potential activity of 42 and could become a Jnr Member. Make one post in 18 periods and you would have enough potential activity to become a Senior with 252 but in actuality you would still be a Newbie and currently only have 18 activity until you made up to 240 posts.

I do not see anything wrong and to me it seems a good idea however I can see everyone has their own opinions and it's not of course the same. We can keep commenting on pages after pages on this topic but It really does not matter what we think, It matters what theymos and other admin thinks.
I think the opinion of the people that actually have to look at these tickers for hours a day does hold some weight. It'd be pretty embarrassing if they would just randomly implement a feature like this without weighing in any community input about it imo. That said, -1. If i want to know the bitcoin price and trade volumes, i'll search them up myself. There's no need for a ticker next to my profile name that switches from 9001 to 9002 every 2 seconds. Seems like a good way to get a headache. |

Shame on bitcoin.com ... Apple should cancel their app from the store...
Atm, for a newbie, BRD wallet is the best choice imho
This is not the interface of an iPhone, but rather what looks like some kind of android. But yeah, if this app also exists in the app store, it should definitely be removed. Bitcoin.com has completely transform to e fraud wallet and imo everyone must report it. New users lost their bitcoin because they simple think that they use a Bitcoin wallet and dont know that they really use an altcoin wallet.  Is this even the real bitcoin.com wallet? This is how it looks given in the source below  http://bitcoinist.com/1000-people-join-crypto-industry-figures-sue-bitcoin-com-fraud/
I believe that there's also a lawsuit starting against them due to them constantly advertising Bcash as the real bitcoin, see http://bitcoinist.com/1000-people-join-crypto-industry-figures-sue-bitcoin-com-fraud/ |

Hello.
I'm having trouble setting up my full node through Tor.
When I go to settings -> options -> network in the GUI and then click "Use separate SOCKS5 proxy to reach peers via Tor hidden services:"
and then input the proxy IP "127.0.0.1" the column always just turns red like it is invalid.
Have searched for this issue only and can't seem to find a solution or anyone really experiencing it.
Anyone that knows what the issue is?
Regards.
What did you set the port to? Did you use 9050 as is instructed here, https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Tor#Bitcoin_Core ? Your socks port might not be configured (correctly) at all. thanks for the answer! I tried that yes, but it didn't matter since the proxy IP column was just red (hinting a wrong proxy ip) so I couldn't even save any changes.. All I've done so far was to setup Tor browser. I checked the network settings in the browser and the proxy ip was indeed 127.0.0.1 Is there anything more I need to do to configure the socks port? Even if it were incorrectly configured, the bitcoin core GUI should still let me input the proxy ip right? I just tried using the Tor.exe client on windows, https://www.torproject.org/download/download -> Expert bundle, and Bitcoin Core v13.0, and that worked fine. Have you checked what port your tor browser uses, and if tor is configured correctly? What happens if you add this
proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
listen=1
bind=127.0.0.1
in your bitcoin.conf file, and then launch bitcoin core? I'm not exactly an expert on this. Someone with a bit more knowledge about this than me might figure out what's wrong. |

Should the mods just close it since it was pretty pointless anyways? Or should they try to revive it and put it to some other use.
What do you mean with Offtopic? The board itself? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=9.80Looks like it has never been more active then as of current. 3 pages filled with topics with the last post made today. In comparison, Beginners & Help only has 1/2 pages of topics where the last post occured today. |

Don't waste your time with cloud mining. Why would someone offer to mine for you if they could make more mining themselves? Cloud mining is almost always a negative EV and you are locked into long contracts. The network difficulty is only increasing and people are getting burned by these contracts.
If you want to invest in a coin you either mine it with your own hardware or just buy the coin and hold.
Buying hardware mining is a much better and more profitable thing. While investing in a cloud mining is a very detrimental thing. We all have entered many difficult times and our experience should be a lesson. Cloud mining is a bad system and is not worth a try for anyone who wants to invest. But I find it strange why cloud mining can still get users, it seems that the applied education can not apply to everyone. Lots of data summaries that claim that people who invest in cloud mining will definitely lose, it should be a reference that there are many other types of work that is much more useful. Stop cloud mining and we will also stop various scams on behalf of a mining !! . I have a feeling that there are still a lot of uninformed users, especially in the crypto hemisphere, who don't have the slightest clue what they're doing. See Bitconnect etc. But, i also think these contracts can/are used for money laundering. Convert money you earned doing illegal activities in a cloud mining contract and voila, suddenly it looks like you earned it legitimate.. |

When he sees enough confirmations to meets his risk tolerance. Each receiver needs to decide for themselves how many confirmations they need to feel comfortable with any specific transaction. That will depend on may conditions, such as: - What is the risk tolerance of the receiver?
- What is the value of the transaction?
- Does the receiver have an existing trust-relationship with the sender?
- Does the receiver have valid identifying information about the sender (name, address, phone, etc)?
- Does the receiver have an alternate method to extract payment from the sender (lawsuit, credit card on file, deposit on hold, etc)?
- Did any popular node software recently release a software update?
Generally (unless the transaction is millions of dollars) 2 or 3 confirmations will be fine. In some cases 1 or 0 confirmations might be acceptable. Thanks. So receiver doesn't know all of senders. And some sender can send few thousand dollar or even over 100,000$. So then, at least 2 or 3 confirmations needed? Then wait for at least 30 minutes? And how to make automatic process when bitcoin daemon receive, it command to webpage refresh (increase sender's bitcoin balance at webpage). So receiver doesn't know all of senders. What do you even mean by this? That the receiver doesn't know the originating adress of the sender, or the credit card information of the sender ? So then, at least 2 or 3 confirmations needed? Then wait for at least 30 minutes? As state by Danny, 6 confirmations for big transactions is the most plausible due to the chances of an attacker trying to reverse the bitcoin blockchain/network almost being nil. See https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/1882 for a more detailed answer. I don't see why you should wait 30 minutes, or what the correlation with that is with the amount of confirmations? And how to make automatic process when bitcoin daemon receive, it command to webpage refresh (increase sender's bitcoin balance at webpage).
This seems like something you should ask on stackoverflow, and is impossible to answer accurately for us/me without knowing more details. |

i have a bitcoin core wallet that is several years old. this means i can claim an equal amount of every forked coin right?
Depends. Some coins allow you to claim x10 the amount you had in BTC ( So if you had 10 BTC you can claim 100 ForkedCoinX) i know about bitcoin cash, what are the other forked coins i can claim?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2749969.0, but i wouldn't. Stick to the more popular ones as listed here for example, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2836875.0 ( And from those i wouldn't bother to claim anything other then Bitcoin cash, gold, and maybe diamond.) i know i have to find a new wallet that supports the new coins, and i know there are plenty of them floating around. but the truth is i know nothing about any wallet other than bitcoin core, and i'm unsure which wallets are considered trustworthy within the community. recommendations would be appreciated. I'm also quite unfamiliar with a lot of these coins, so i'm kind of scared to make suggestions here. For bitcoin cash, i believe https://electroncash.org/ was/is legit. (Make sure to verify hashes etc before downloading!). i would also like to know what i have to do to claim my new coins. some google reading tells me i have to empty my wallet and import the private keys to another wallet. this makes me a little nervous cause my coins have been sitting undisturbed for years and the thought of messing this up and ending up with nothing is terrifying. step by step instructions would also be greatly appreciated.
That would indeed be a smart thing to do. You don't even have to sent them to another wallet. Simply transfer them to a different private key within your wallet. This way, if the wallet you are claiming forked coin X from is malicious ( steals your private key etc) they can't take any bitcoin, since it's no longer kept on that key. i keep hearing about replay protection and not to do anything without it. what is that exactly and which forked coins support it? what are the other risks i might face by trying to claim forked coins?
I hope every forked coin supports it. I am not entirely sure which do and don't, but i think a simple google search will be sufficient to find out. What is Replay protection and what can happen if it isn't implemented.i know i have to have a wallet before the fork, but is there any other time sensitive requirements i should know about? can i claim my forked coins at any time? considering not doing anything for now and doing this at a later date.
This might depend on the fork itself, but yes, in general you should be able to "claim" your coins at any given moment. As it isn't really "Claiming" but rather accessing your coins on said blockchain. Would be weird if your coins would just disappear because they haven't been accessed for X time. do coins spent after the fork effect the amount received when i claim the forked coins or is it all about the snapshot of the block chain at the time of the fork? That would only make sense if the coin has no replay protection. So in most if not all cases, no. |

As far as I know,
If some send bitcoin by this command, [ sendtoaddress ],
then wallet decide where to pull bitcoin remaining balance from any inside accounts?
I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean A. What inputs are chosen by the wallet to be spent? It uses a multi-pass approach, first trying to use only coins with at least six confirmations. In the next two passes it relaxes these requirements. Within each pass, it tries to minimize the number of transaction outputs claimed and then the amount of change returned.
Note that all coins in your wallet are considered. In the accounting model that the Bitcoin client uses, specific coins do not belong to specific accounts. https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/1077/what-is-the-coin-selection-algorithmOr B. Where the so called "change" goes in case your inputs hold more bitcoin than you want to spend? I believe the change simply gets send to the first adress in your keypool that doesn't hold any balance. If you want to specify where the change goes i think you could use something like changeaddress=yournewchangeaddress |

decentralized systems can solve this problem such as Up/down voting system [When the topic gets many negative points, will be locked.] +1, Although i don't really think the reddit model fits on this forum, as every topic gets bumped not by votes but by replies/relevance. I'd love to see a system similar to that of Stackexchange/stackoverflow, where more veteran users can vote to close a topic. ( Obviously not a copy of their system, but something that fits a bit more into Bitcointalk.) |

You can use the swap tool on a website to transact assets to another person. For example, when you want to use MyEtherWallet offline to trade, trade, or send cryptocurrency, there are many different ways. To access the wallet, use: Keystore File (Utc / Json), Private Key, Mnemonis Phrase, Ledger Nano S, TREZOR.

5. Coinbase
Coinbase allows you to access your wallet and supports multiple coin stores such as Ethereum and Bitcoin. Coinbase wallets are simple to set up and very easy to use, but they have some limitations: • The trading platform keeps the personal key of the wallet. This means you have no control over your budget and Coinbase can decide to stop your account if they wish.
I am using metamask and myetherwallet for eth and coinbase and blockchaininfo for btc .I have no idea about Trezor and Exodus and Ledger Nano wallet.But i think metamask and myetherwallet best wallet for eth and eth based token and its more securied wallet and coinbase and blockchaininfo best for btc wallet but you can also electroneum wallet know more details visit https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3024763.0It seems like you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about, as far as bitcoin related wallets and their security go. and coinbase and blockchaininfo best for btc wallet As TryNinja already mentioned above, coinbase isn't a wallet to begin with. They allow no access to your private keys, your fee settings(afaik). You basically don't own any bitcoins you store there. Coinbase has complete control. I believe blockchain.info has already had issues in the past with incorrectly generating seeds, ( https://bravenewcoin.com/news/blockchain-info-bug-exposes-users-private-keys/) Furthermore they don't allow you to make CPFP transactions, or Doublespend/Replace by fee. Neither do they allow you to easily access your private key. (I believe you'll need to manually regenerate it using your seed in another wallet such as Electrum?) I don't see why anyone would use them over Electrum/Bitcoin Core at this point. User Convenience? Also, Electroneum is an altcoin, and your link is referring to the Bitcoin Core thread. Which one is it? |
