It's neither possible (unless you pay a miner) to send 500 sats at the moment on-chain, because the overwhelming majority of nodes will not propagate a transaction which creates output worth less than 546 sats.
Just to be more accurate:
The 546 satoshi is the dust limit for non-segwit outputs. The dust limit for segwit outputs is only 294 satoshi.

This is the default setting and nodes are free to accept smaller outputs with changing DUST_RELAY_TX_FEE.
1262  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: breaking the satoshi's on: April 07, 2023, 12:45:11 PM
it's possible that the protocol could be updated to allow for more decimal places, which will allow for smaller transactions?
The 8 decimal places we have for each bitcoin now is more than enough. But if we want to have more than 8 decimal places for each bitcoin, we have to change the consensus rules through a hard fork.
According to consensus rules, the amount field in a bitcoin transaction must be an integer between 0 and 2100000000000000. (Note that in the bitcoin protocol, we deal with satoshis, not BTC. So, 1 = 1 sat)

You have an unconfirmed transaction and you want to accelerate it using a service that charge you 15,000 dollars for that. Am I getting you right?

Can you share your transaction ID here? (Note that with sharing your transaction ID, you may hurt your privacy, but it has nothing to do with your security.)
If the transaction includes a change, you can accelerate it using CPFP method on your own without relying on any third party.


Use this free tx accelerator: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
You can use ViaBTC free service only if the fee rate used for the unconfirmed transaction is at least 10 sat/byte.

Before using tx accelerator, check your fee rate and current mempools to know what a higher fee rate you should use when you bump the fee.
You can bump the fee only if the original transaction has been flagged as RBF. I doubt exodus makes RBF-enabled transactions.
1264  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: How do solo miners earn on: April 06, 2023, 09:12:51 AM
is it profitable with patience?
All depends on your luck. To me, solo mining is more like gambling.

To know the chance of finding each of blocks, you can simply divide the hashrate provided by your mining equipment to the total hashrate of network.
Currently, the total hash rate of network is around 350 EH/s.
1265  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How frequent can bitcoin transaction reverse? on: April 05, 2023, 10:28:49 PM
Do you mean that even if I own the mining machine I still can't process my 1 satoshi transaction with 1 sat fees? and the transaction minimum is as you mentioned?
If you are miner and you can mine a block, you can include such a transaction and there is nothing preventing you from doing that.
Dust limit is not a consensus rule and any node can have its own dust limit. The amount I mentioned above are set by default.

Note that miners are free even to include transactions not paying any fee.
1266  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How frequent can bitcoin transaction reverse? on: April 05, 2023, 09:01:07 PM
if a transaction amount is 1 sat and fee is set to 1 sat how long would my miner take to process it?
First of all note that you can't make a bitcoin transaction sending 1 satoshi. Such an output would be considered as dust and nodes would reject your transaction.
For a legacy output, the dust limit is 546 satoshi and for a segwit output, the dust limit is 294 satoshi.

Secondly, the confirmation time doesn't depend on the amount your set at all.
Miners prioritize transactions based on their fee rate (sat/vbyte). So, the confirmation time depends on the fee rate you used for your transaction and how congested the network is.

Google authenticator may prevent anyone from accessing your account.
Take note that the 2FA code is generated using a known algorithm. It's not that the 2FA code can be generated only by google.
In the case you have your secret key, you can import it in any other two factor authentication application and get the code even if google authenticator no longer works.
1268  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: If someone steals your seed words, but does not know your passphrase... on: April 05, 2023, 08:39:11 PM
So to summarize, a wallet of 24 words + strong passphrase is as secure as a multisig wallet?
A 12 word BIP39 seed phrase provides 128 bits of entropy. Since a private key provides 128 bits of security, a 12 word seed phrase is enough.
If you want to have more security, you can add a passphrase and keep it is a separate safe place. In this way, even if someone steals your seed phrase can't steal your fund, unless your passphrase is weak and can brute-forced.

If you make a 2 of 2 multi-signature wallet and you keep your seed phrases in separate places, both of seed phrases are required for accessing the fund.
This would provide a same security as a wallet with a seed phrase extended by a passphrase (assuming the passphrase is kept in a separate place, it's chosen completely random and provides enough entropy.)

We don't know who is satoshi and there is no way to know when an unknown person was born. I guess you have taken that date from the misleading information reported on Wikipedia's article.

Anyone who wants to know where that date comes from can read the article published on coindesk.

1270  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to use google authenticator on bitcoin wallets on: April 05, 2023, 04:25:26 PM
But this Google Authenticator only exists in centralized trading wallets, in bitcoin wallets like Electrum and blue wallets which as far as I know there is no Google Authenticator.
As I said in my previous post, you can have a 2FA wallet in electrum, but that's completely different from how two factor authentication work in custodial services like centralized exchanges.

When you set two factor authentication in a custodial wallet or an exchange, the service doesn't allow you to make a transaction or login to your account if you don't enter the correct 2FA code. We can have this feature only on custodial services, since they have full control over users fund. In a non-custodial wallet where you have access to your private keys, you have full control over your fund and we can't have two-factor authentication in the same way as a custodial wallet or an exchange.

You can have a 2FA wallet in electrum as well, but as I said above, it works in a different way. Electrum 2FA wallet is a 2 of 3 multi-signature wallet. This means that there are three private keys for each of addresses and 2 of them are required for making a tranaction. In a 2FA electrum wallet, one of master private keys is stored in the wallet file and one of them is owned by a third party called trustedcoin.
When you want to make a transaction, you have to ask trustedcoin to sign the transaction for you. In electrum 2FA wallet, you have a seed phrase which can be used for deriving two of master private keys and disabling 2FA. So, you still have full control over your fund.

however, the moderator cannot review who reported your posts because this is unethical; only the reporter has access to such history.
Moderators can know who has reported the post.
Read the post which has been made by Welsh about this.

Yeah, we see who reported the post, but honestly I don't really pay much attention to that.

And the post made by hilariousandco:

Yes, mods can see who reported the post, but we cannot see who handled it. Only an admin has that info.
1272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: I need solution to this malware problem. on: April 05, 2023, 01:10:23 PM
would it be a better idea to giveup the whole HDD and get new one?
If your device is infected with a clipboard malware, you should format your hard drive and reinstall your operating system from scratch. That's enough to make sure you no longer have any malware in your computer and there is no need to get a new hard drive.

Also, as far as I know, it can only be used in centralized exchanges if you have a trading activity, not on electrum, I don't know if trust wallet also has these features, but it doesn't seem to be there either.
In electrum, you can create a 2FA wallet which is actually a 2 of 3 multi-signature wallet.
Whenever you want to make a transaction from your electrum 2FA wallet, your transaction has to be signed by a third party called trustedcoin. For asking trustedcoin to sign your transaction, you should enter the 2FA code.

Also, as far as I know, it can only be used in centralized exchanges if you have a trading activity, not on electrum, I don't know if trust wallet also has these features, but it doesn't seem to be there either.
Electrum is the only non-custodial wallet with such a feature.

I don't know about it Bitcointalk Owner and Bitcoin owner is the same you have any Source link Brother?
Bitcointalk is now controlled by theymos.
Bitcoin has no owner. Bitcoin isn't like a company which is owned by someone or a group of people. Bitcoin is a trustless and decentralized payment system and no one has control over it.

Satoshi who created bitcoin, created forum.bitcoin.org as a place for discussion about bitcoin. In August 2011, theymos moved the forum from forum.bitcoin.org to bitcointalk.org.
1276  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Wallet - Login Help Needed on: April 03, 2023, 08:21:18 AM
Thx guys, from my understanding... they are 2 separate wallets with the same seed.
As already said above, two wallets that have the same seed phrase (assuming there is no passphrase) are the same wallets.
You can create different wallets with a single seed phrase only if the seed phrase is BIP39 and you use different derivation paths. Is your seed phrase BIP39 or you have generated your seed phrase in electrum itself? Do you remember how you generated your seed phrase?

Again, it doesn't matter what was the wallet name and what was the password.
1277  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Wallet - Login Help Needed on: April 03, 2023, 07:26:15 AM
If two wallets have the same seed phrase, they are the same wallets with exactly same addresses, unless you have extended one of the seed phrases with a passphrase.
Did you add any passphrase when creating the wallet? If no, you actually have only one wallet.

Note that the wallet name doesn't matter at all. When you recover your wallet using your seed phrase, you can choose any name you want.

1279  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN SUPPLY LIMIT on: April 01, 2023, 08:55:34 AM
As we all know BITCOIN mining will stop once the 21 million mark is reached.
Take note that it's not that miners will stop their work once all bitcoins are mined. Currently, miners get the newly generated coins and the transaction fees. At that time, miners will still get the transaction fees.


Why it is not possible to mine the remaining BITCOINS before 2140 when the 19 millions mined in just over 10 years?
That's how bitcoin is designed. The initial block reward was 50 BTC and it's halved every 210,000 blocks.

It may worth mentioning that the total supply of bitcoin will be exactly 20,999,999.9769 BTC.
1280  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: how to see true total BTC balance _including_ change addresses on: March 31, 2023, 11:06:04 PM
Better look up addresses one by one or import the extended pupbic key into Electrum and create a watching-only wallet to monitor your transactions and balance.
I don't see a big difference between entering your master public key on a block explorer and creating a watch-only wallet with your master public key on electrum, unless you run your own server on electrum.
If you don't run your own server on electrum, you have to connect to a server and your privacy is still compromised.
