2501  Economy / Goods / Re: WTB A windows phone for under $20 on: October 18, 2017, 04:48:42 PM
looking to get any smartphone but it has to have windows 10 on it, will pay under $20 bitcoins.
Must be unlocked.

You're trying to buy a smartphone for less then 20$? I think shipping costs are almost already going to be quadruple (x4) that amount. The only phones you are going to buy are either going to be outdated, slow, and broken, or stolen.

Or even a combination of both Wink.

Amazon has some unlocked ones for under 50$, you might want to check that out. https://www.amazon.com/Unlocked-Cell-Phones-Under-50/s?ie=UTF8&page=1&rh=n%3A2407749011%2Cp_36%3A14674872011

Thanks for replies. I have coinbase but their fees as too high. Alsomost $80 for exhcaning 1 btc.

Also I think their price is not 100% live! I checked the price on coinmarket and coinbase at the same time and I can see discrepancy.  Huh
Yeah, because Coinmarketcap takes the average of all the markets that trade BTC/USD ( T ), and every market trades at a slightly different price. Therefore the price of coinbase will probably always slightly off the coinmarketcap price.

Not that tht really matters, with the current liquidity, and volumes + differences in prices.
2503  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Paypal for Bitcoin anyone? on: October 18, 2017, 03:25:58 PM
I'm looking to trade Paypal for Bitcoin. $50 now and maybe another $100 in a few days.

1. This is not the  right place/board to trade on, please move this thread to currency exchange https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0

2. You're trading paypal -> Bitcoin, not sure if you are aware of this, but, paypal is easily reversible, and ontop of that, you're a newbie. Chances that anyone wants to buy from you, unless you offer ludicrous rates/ verify your ID, are very low.

3. It would be good to state your exchange rate in the OP aswell.

are you use the security question ? it's help for lock your account.
The only mod accept is sign message, if you can't sign message from old staked address maybe you can't get it back. let's see the other people will say

Can't they just lock the account if they have reasonable proof it has been hacked? I thought i read something about it, and that it didn't need a signed message, but rather something that could just proof you've been associated with the account. Hilariousandco locks them pretty often i think

For recovering, yea, you're fucked. There's no way to get back in without a signed message..
2505  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Platform to trade BTC to USD? on: October 18, 2017, 03:00:09 PM
Dear friends,

is there any platform like bittrex where you can trade BTC with USD or any other fiat currency? I could be wrong, but as far as I understand in bittrex you can only trade btc to other crypto?

Thanks Smiley
Yes, you can trade BTC -> USD on platforums like Kraken, Bitfinex, and C-Cex + Gemini.

Or you could simply sell them back on coinbase, but i don't think that's really what you're looking for.
2506  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Searching for extra news - latest news on: October 18, 2017, 10:03:46 AM
Trying to catch latest news I started to join discord and slack servers, follow a lot on Twitter and joined a lot of channels on telegram. I'm still filtering the huge amount of noise but... I still miss something.
So, if someone know where I can find these, thanks a lot (can be anything - slack, discord, Twitter, telegram, mail, RSS, etc, etc):
- announce (real time) the latest ANN topics from this forum (and tokens ANN too). I know there's already a Twitter bot from ubiquitous, but it's not working for some days ;
- latest news from all coins (or as much as possible). Like some Twitter account that retweets everything (real time) or something like that;
- post changes to exchanges. Like new pairs, coins removed, coins temporarily disabled ;
- a place where people share ASAP newest leaks from coins. Like those infamous "signals", I mean slack screenshots, code leaks, etc.
Thanks guys

I've found this site -> http://coinmarketcal.com/     pretty useful to keep updated with the latest news of most coins. It includes new releases, community things, dev updates, and much more.

For both bitcoin and several altcoins.



Edit, seems the site is down right now, I'm guessing it will be up soon though, to give you an idea of how it looks see https://web.archive.org/web/20171013100111/http://coinmarketcal.com/
2507  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: btc gold to exchanges or wallets only? on: October 18, 2017, 09:16:17 AM
There's quite a bit of discussion on this forum but if you want a reliable quick guide, head on over to the horse's mouth at http://btcgpu.org/

On the landing page, if you scroll down, you'll find a list of wallets supporting Bitcoin Gold or BCG as they're calling it. There are also a few exchanges on that list that have committed to crediting equal amounts of BCG for BTC balances. The latter required you to trust the exchange... I'd say HitBTC is the most reliable on that list, but don't take my word for it.

Read their FAQ for more info.


Any update on Electrum on whether or not they are going to support BitcoinGold?

I know that their servers are run by individuals, so i'm thinking there is a good chance one of them will host one for bitcoinGold right?

If they don't Ill should move my private keys into a wallet that is supported by their official site, so for example "https://guarda.co/?utm_source=btg" <- Wallet seems pretty funky to me :/
2508  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: All exchanges are not created equal - Kraken & Bittrex & ? on: October 18, 2017, 09:09:00 AM
Bittrex is not accepting Fiat, that is why sometimes rates can differ, because people do not have this much BTC to buy, for example.

Also, of course, prices may be slightly differ depending on people who are trading there. The persons who usually equalise the prices are called arbitragers. They see the price difference, and quickly buy on one market and sell on another. When there are many people doing this, the two prices equalise. This happens on non-crypto markets too.


That they don't have fiat isn't the reason for the difference i think. Bittrex offers trading in USDT aswell ( USD$ in Tether.)

Has more to do with actual volume, and just the supply x/ demand and, as a result arbitrage.

We can treat these exchangers as different markets of Bitcoin  (or any other cryptocurrencies) hence they have their own price and volume which opens an opportunity to arbitrage which in return will make the prices between these exchangers to come to a point and made the price somewhat similar or close to one another. Hence, arbitrage offers an interaction between exchangers to have a uniform (but not totally) market.

Yeah, i guess you could see arbitrage as some kind of balancer between the markets/exchanges.
Still wondering if anyone still does it with the current markets, it seems almost impossible to me, with the sky-high volumes on most markets.

I guess it might be possible on smaller market cap coins, but no longer possible on tokens like ethereum..
2509  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Does our BTC need to be off the exchanges before Gold fork? on: October 17, 2017, 08:31:15 PM
Ok, what are some good desktop or Android wallets for BTC?
I just installed imtoken, but that seems to be ETH based coins only.

I use Electrum on my desktop, that should work for the upcoming bitcoingold fork aswell ( I am expecting that ). See https://electrum.org/bcc.txt about the previous hardfork ( BitcoinCash)
2510  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Does our BTC need to be off the exchanges before Gold fork? on: October 17, 2017, 07:38:12 PM
If I have BTC on exchanges such as Kraken and Bittrex on 10/25, will I still receive bitcoin gold on 11/1?
That depends on the policy of the exchange, Bittrex for example credited their users with BitcoinCash shortly after the fork.

I am not sure what their stance on the current fork is, so you should figure that out.

It is always better to get a desktop wallet, to make absolutely sure you get the coins from the fork..

2512  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Best multi crypto currency wallet on: October 17, 2017, 04:45:38 PM
cant go wrong with electrum or bitcoin core core is recommended by the forum up the top+

Yes, for bitcoin these are perfectly fine.. But that wasn't the question he was asking. Either your english is extremely bad, or you just can't read properly.

He is asking for multi-crypto currency wallets, jeez.

There's Coinomi for mobile.
And jaxx for pc.
I don't recomand none (maybe jaxx is ok), but if the app has the private key or they can recover it for you, then they are compromised, can be hacked (or not) in the future

As far as Jaxx.io goes, i've heard and read that they have some security bugs that they're unwilling to fix. Therefore i would advise NOT to use them.
2513  Other / Meta / Re: My account has been blocked. Lol3c on: October 17, 2017, 03:47:10 PM
Well, I stake my address by coinbase address. However, it seems that coinbase does not allow users to sign message anymore
http://prntscr.com/gyjal6
http://prntscr.com/gyjqte

So, Is there anyway I can prove that this is my account ?

Try contacting a moderator, as you said, unless you can sign the actual adress, i don't think you can recover it, as that is the only method they currently use.

Maybe you can sent a certain amount of bitcoin to an adress to prove you own the adress/wallet?

https://coins.newbium.com/post/1408-how-to-sign-message-your-bitcoin-address-coinbase

Does this no longer work anymore? I don't think you can export wallets/seed/keys either from coinbase.



https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=377044
When did your account got hacked? It seems you also have another alt account called "Blitzboy", https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=757577, does that account have any staked adress?

I'd greatly appreciate any help thanks guys!

That doesn't seem to be any kind of private key/ public key, nor a seed.

My guess is that that key is from some kind of online wallet?

Could be that private keys were different years ago, but i'm not so sure of that.

Looking to buy a windows/linux VPS, i'm looking to pay around 5-10$, i can go first, and pay with bitcoin/eth.

I am NOT interested in any cracked vpses, please only offer me legitimate VPSes, of which you actually own the hardware, or rented them.

Minimum specs; I am looking for ~1gb of RAM minimum. as for the processor, i don't really care that much.

Please PM me with your offers, looking to buy from a minimum of Full member, unless you have some kind of trust. Thanks.

As said above. Trusted exchanges like kraken, coinbase, bitstamp etc. are your best options. But when you'll be turning them into fiat count with ID verification (revealing your identity to exchanger) which could take several days.
Alternatively can use localbitcoins (find some trader nerby, schedule personal meeting and trade them for cash).

Go for p2p deal only if you have issues with revealing your identity (and in such deal you should definitely use escrow).

If you have issues revealing your identity, i don't think the smartest thing would be to give those out to a complete stranger on localbitcoins, ( 99% of those vendors ask for id if you're buying more then 250$).

Rather would i reveal them to a "trusted" corporation such as coinbase, which has too much reputation to lose by reselling them/using them for ads.


2517  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: 1 BTC Reward / Electrum.dat password recovery (have seed) on: October 17, 2017, 02:08:31 PM
I am also using Electrum desktop wallet for windows and i think if you have the seed key with you then you dont need the password because when you install the electrum wallet that time it ask to create new wallet or import the wallet with seed key and when you insert the seed key your wallet is generated and it ask you to input the password newly so your old password dont work. This is what i am using this way and restoring my electrum wallet in other places and access my address. So i think you are missing something in the seed key. Try this option and see that you are getting your solutions.


No, it won't work since OP is looking for private keys that have later been imported to the wallet, and those aren't going to be included in the normal seed.

With the  seed you will only be able to recover the private keys that have been created with the seed/wallet, not the imported ones.

Hello everyone, I'm not here for a long time. I have since 2010 3 bitcoins on my wallet and I do not know what to do with them, how many I looked on the Internet everywhere what suspicious sites to sell them. I do not trust such a person at all, please help me or advice to whom to sell, and it would be better for a living person. I will make a very pleasant discount from the current course, everything is exactly easy money.

My son wrote, I can not figure it out if it's not difficult to write who can help with Skype:KiberMul559584199 or in qip: +79661829081
You should decide whether you are going to sell or keep them first. If you want to sell then go to a place like localbitcoins.com or coinbase.com, you'll get the best rates there. I do find it curious how you could figure out how to buy them when they were first launching 7 years ago, but struggle to sell them now. Your writing style is.. Nigerian Prince-ish.

Also, posting your Qip messenger number / Skype ID here is not the smartest thing you could do.

There's a ton of scammers out there willing to do anything for just a fraction of that 3 Bitcoin.

Seriously, responding to anyone that texted you with advice would be even more stupid than to use a "suspicious site".

Like Fortify said, depending on the country you're in, and depending on your level of spotting scams, and ingenious people trying to turn you for your BTC$, which i don't think you know very well, it would be best to go with an exchange like http://Coinbase.com, or http://CEX.IO ( for russians preferably.), or https://www.bitfinex.com/fees , https://www.kraken.com/ , https://www.bitstamp.net/

If i was you, i would avoid any peer-to-peer due to the nature of scamming risks.
2519  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: I want to start cloud mining on: October 17, 2017, 10:54:25 AM
Try eobot. If they still offer cloudmining register, go to account, click on the left to ghs, then go to products and faucet. Then you can see, how that would work. But you don't come far with "free mining". If a service is legit (only know one or two), they have to pay hardware, maintance, electricity costs, staff, taxes .....so they cant give out  much mining power for free.

That is all scripted. EObot is a cloud mining ponzi scam for sure in my opinion.

DO NOT INVEST IN THAT SITE!

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=551009.0


Even Bitcointalk staff is calling it a scam.




Either you get scammed later down the road, or you never make a profit, since their contracts decrease in revenue after X days. It is very shady to say the least.

How to cash out bitcoin for Russian citizens? I heard that Adbcash stoped working with Russia. Is it true?

Have you tried one of the following sites?

- https://paxful.com/russia/buy-bitcoin I guess you can sell there aswell.
- https://localbitcoins.com/country/RU Peer to peer transactions.
- https://gatecoin.com/ ( Not sure if they're legit, you should research them  a bit more. )
- https://cex.io/ - I believe they support russian banks aswell. )

And if you really want to do it the hard way, you can transfer your BTC to virwox funds, and transfer those to RBL. https://www.virwox.com/
