I'll take 32; thanks kitty!

Have you tried accessing coinbase from its web version? AFAIK the only thing it asks to login is the email and the password; and you can recover passwords directly on your email. It may send you a SMS to "verify" it's you if have enabled SMS 2FA, but other than that, I don't even remember receiving a recovery phrase on coinbase when I registered (maybe older wallets did?)

Take into account, that once you click the "open wallet" on core, it will take a while and might look like the app is frozen. It's just scanning the whole blockchain for transactions on that wallet, and it will most likely take a while, don't panic if that happens (I've seen it happen to a couple of guys).

If you have a moderately big ammount of coins, I'd suggest you buy a hardware wallet to store them, and once the BTCBTC is safe, you can proceed to claim (and dump, or store, that's up to you) the forked coins. IIRC, BCH, BSV and BTG are the ones that are currently worth the effort; you can check how to claim each one of them in LoyceV's guide (and service). But again, securing the BTC should be the top priority

Edit:

A couple of weeks ago, a user sent me a wallet.dat file from 2009 to check if I could open it with Core. It ended up being a bought wallet, but the "important" thing is that it did open without needing to use upgradewallet. Each case is different, but you could first try opening them from inside Core with the "open wallet" option inside the "file" directory. Make sure to use different names to know which one you are operating

It was not really about that; but rather about the huge amount of wallets without passwords that are being sold these days (that can't be unlocked in a human lifespan). Most recent case being this one. If you say the wallet is really yours, there is no reason to not believe you; and the only thing I wanted to make sure was that it was really the case.

Now going back to your case...

Do you know if all the wallet files are from bitcoin; or could they be mixed with other altcoins? If you are not sure about it; you can follow one of these 4 procedures:



It's from another thread from some months ago with a similar case; old wallet files

If you don't know in which address the coins are, you can dump the whole wallet with --dumpwallet. That will create a file that you can open with a text editor, and will contain the private masterkey and every private key with its correcponding address. You can manually check them, or simply sweep all/the masterkey

And has been inactive since July 2017, and just woke up to start this thread.

It could be a hacked account, it could not. I'm not saying that his case is not genuine; but seeing how many of this situations I've seen on this couple of months since I've been back to the forum.... well.... I tend to distrut everyone in certain situations (yes, no matter the rank). Besides, if it's a bought account/wallet, there's nothing stopping OP from lying; but still

I don't want to be that guy, but is the wallet truly yours, or did you buy it online as an attempt to crack it?

We've been seeing that a lot lately, and it's a complete waste of everyones' time.

I beg for the pardon of the coders and techy guys; but I don't see any difference between those 2 lines...

Adding the total merit count to the notification is a great suggestion tough

Destacar que hay una competición en el Discord extraoficial del foro de ver quien hace la mejor pizza! Hay un premio de 0.011BTC y aquí os pongo un par de ejemplos

I'll also be leaving my participation here for the sake of making people hungry attracting more people to the contest (here or at the Games and rounds thread better?)

There's a couple more pizzas and some making of in the imgur album too. Not as nice looking as @Rikafip's, but twice as tasty for sure

De primeras, podrias dejar de usar un monedero web; pero eso es algo secundario....

Si en el explorador ves que en una dirección que sabes que es tuya hay algo, es que lo hay. Lo más probable es que se trate de un bug de blockchain.

Siguiendo la primera recomendación, podrias comprar un Monedero Fisico (ledger, trezor....) para almacenar las monedas y controlar TU tus claves privadas.

Para recuperar las monedas que no te aparecen, puedes descargar Electrum para Bitcoin, y Electron Cash para BCH. Al crear un monedero nuevo en estas aplicaciones, selecciones "ya tengo una semilla", introduces la frase de 12 palabras que se te proporciona al registrar un monedero (accesible en el centro de seguridad), en opciones; marcas el cuadro de BIP39, y para Bitcoin, seleccionas el tipo de monedero como Legacy (no se como funciona BCH, pero no creo que cambie mucho la cosa).

Asegurate de hacer las descargas desde las fuentes oficiales, utiliza contraseñas seguras, y no las almacenes en nada digital. Además, te recomendaría mover todos los fondos a una wallet nueva tan pronto como hayas accedido a ellos, ya que al introducir la semilla en un ordenador, puede verse comprometida.

En el monedero de Core estoy 100% seguro de que en Windows 10 te llega una notificación cada vez que hay un movimiento. Hacec mucho que no utilizo Electrum para nada más que pruebas y experimentos, por lo que no estoy ahora mismo seguro; pero diria que también te llegaba una notificación.

Dentro de los bots de telegram, yo utilizo @bitcoin_savings_bot . Es facil de usar y configurar

Hay varios bots de telegram que te notifican cada vez que hay un movimiento en una dirección que tu le has pedido monitorear. Aparte de eso, puedes importar a Electrum o Core una dirección pública, que te crearan un monedero "watch-only", y también verás (no estoy seguro de las notificaciones) todos los movimientos de dicha dirección

BestChange has selected the 6 new members, so that campaign is now closed.

Some of the users were already enrolled in other campagins, so we can expect a vacant on Wolfbet&blackjac.fun (Hero&Legendary) and 2 Sr on Bustadice

And no one would rank up, because everyone would hoard his merits and total circulation would be close to 0

Por lo que se ha estado comentando en el Discord del foro, puede que esa dirección fuese de Hal Finney. Por lo que se rumorea; le dejó bastantes direcciones a sus hijos/nietos/descendencia, y podria tratarse de alguno de estos moviendo las monedas o a una nueva dirección, o a venderlas.

Me parece una teoria bastante mas sensata, la verdad

Otra teoria que acabo de leer, es una de las direcciones "innaccesibles" de Craight Wright

Y otra cosa que desmiente que sean de satoshi por aqui.....

It was designed that way to "control" the number of Merits in circulation; a 2:1 proportion is not a bad one, and it's had no issues. There are some merit sources to compensate for those "burnt" half.

I don't really know what you mean with reputation score... but how are reputation and merits related in any way?

Not really; the video was working when he posted it; I saw it and it was an Electrum wallet, with the address that had the 150+BTC and a lot of text in Russian.

What I don't get is that he first said that he had the address and had swept it, and then he goes on to say that it's a scam and he lost money???

I'd ask for a signed message if he is really in control of the address, but this last turn on this thread is being really mind-blowing

The original post of the second example did include the @. You can check it in Loyce Clubs' Archive

Is it case sensitive? That may explain my situation...

Hmmmm, then something is wrong with me

Example on where I've been @ and didn't get a notification
