IOTA

[alko89]

I've screwed up a little buying too soon. I mostly switched some of other coins to IOTA and also bought some with FIAT...100MIOTAs to be exact for around 4$

For the ones I bought with other coins I don't bother much, since all currencies went down since correction. Bot the other few I bought with FIAT I'm quite sat to lose the money. I hope IOTA will go up soon.

It depends on what software you were using. Some scamming software only can generate seeds From a set of limited seeds which the scammers know. In that case you are not safe.

I would rather just randomly hit the key board like a monkey to generate 81 random letters  and I may randomly replace 3 to 5 letters with 9 if I like.

when sending iota if you send 0 does that mean all of it?

Guys, not sure where to post this. But I have a transaction that has been attached 40 times already. I sent from coinfalcon to Binance.
This is the latest retry:
https://thetangle.org/transaction/NAFYTTOTKQIJVEOSZPXZRQBO9ZBGGGPBLDTPDMUAHQOQ9DVENB9JDXEOTRZEIPVPMPZLDRTCTWFZ99999

it has already more than 2 children - from my understanding that should be the number of confirmations. So I don't understand what is happening and what I should do to solve this. I already tried reattaching, promoting, nothing seems to work. It's been 10 days now that I sent those 7000 Miota. Not a small amount.

Does anybody know what I should do or what is happening ?

(I tried posting in iota reddit support forum, but my posts keep being automatically deleted.)

No. If you send 0, it means you send 0 iota;

I try to login into my IOTA Light Wallet since days, but I always receive an error "Connection refused". Tried different nodes. But error is always the same. Any recommendations?

No, you have to find a working node or set one up.

I have question regarding the reclaim process: I have completed all steps, but balances are still 0.

What can I do? I read about that I can create many addresses. Will that help?

I have also submitted an old and a new seed during the reclaim process. The balance should appear in my wallet after I log in with the new seed, right?

Okay Thanks, i saw a transaction for 0 that was not authorized by me and also seen the same issue with 3 other seeds i created with mouse they also sent 0 iota one account sent 0 3 times.  i thought 0 was defualt for all or something.  my wallet is locked due to
ERROR: PRIVATE KEY REUSE DETECTED!

You are attempting to sign a transaction with input that have an already been used. IOTA uses Winternitz one-time signature (W-OTS) scheme, due to it's `one-time` nature, the security of funds in an address decreases rapidly if you re-sign new transactions using the same key. Please wait for previous transaction to confirm, e.g. by promoting/reattaching, before sending another transaction

But my funds should still be safe right

I am excited about IOTA, UPort, CIVIC and other organizations support and participation in the Decentralized Identity Foundation.

I express my thoughts and it's importance to the The Digital Reserve in my blog . I also provide information on the working groups that are currently available. There are four at the moment.
