We would surely do with more Merit sources like OP. You have my full support. The number of active Merit sources has been dropping with some members becoming inactive such as TMAN, Bones261(very good Merit source in the scam accusations Board) and many more I may not know of.

Please @Theymos hear out our cries.

The summer is almost over now, soon to be 9 months of waiting. I know that for the good stuff you need to wait a lot, but I could have one more kid for that time I was waiting, just sayin'...
From September I will be home for some months so I would have some time to send some merit.
Stay safe people

We do not need any more bearded babies.

One is enough.

I don't know why I didn't notice this thread before now.

For the moment I have just one question:

Background:

A few weeks ago I posted a set of questions to each of two UID's who, like yourself, are hoping to become merit sources.

• One has not responded to my questions, but has to others' posted since.
• The other has engaged in DT trust abuse in the hopes to silence my questions.

Question:

So, my question to you is should either of those merit source applicants be taken seriously, or discounted?

If they didn't want to answer questions, this is their decision and right but since they posted their applications and based on what theymos said that if you are somehow established member you have a chance to become a source, it should be fine. Doesn't really matter how serious we take those applications, what matters is how theymos will see them and decide.

Doesn't really matter how serious we take those applications, what matters is how theymos will see them and decide.

I will get a bump on your thread OP, We low rank users need more merit source so that if ever we will have a quality post then we can have the chance that could be seen or visible directly with the merit source not only in meta and beginners and help section. Because of thousands of users here in the forum there are quality posts spotted that did not receive any merit. If they do receive merit probably coming from friends here in the forum that are following at the same time. In our local section few merits are circulated and most of the users there probably hoarding it. I am not pretty sure though but I will try to visit the local again so as to get information regarding on merit circulation and active merit source.

If given you will be able to be accepted OP then I would be happy for you. My little way of  helping you to be accepted is to bump your thread. Hope you will get accepted in this application of you to be a merit source.

[TheBeardedBaby]

I think I shall update those 10 posts from the OP because they are a bit outdated.
So here is an idea, every time I bump my application I will quote a new post which deserves more merit.
(this one is from 2018, i know, but it deserves more merit, don't you guys think so?)

ONE

Introduction

This is the second part of my previous tutorial which was created for less experienced users to help them with the basic functions of Electrum software wallet. This time I would like to describe a few features which might cause some problems to people who haven’t been into Bitcoin for a long time.


Table of contents

      1. Creating a multi-signature wallet
      2. Sending a transaction from a multi-signature wallet
      3. RBF (replace-by-fee)
      4. Cold storage
      5. Coin control
      6. Using a hardware wallet
      7. Signing/Verifying a message
      8. Extra information


1. Creating a multi-signature wallet

This type of wallet requires multiple signatures to spend from it. You can select up to 15 cosigners and any number (<=15) of required signatures. This is a great solution for organisations which don’t want to give control of all of their money to a single person. Investors can use this type of wallet in case one of their private keys was exposed to a third party. Let’s get through the process of creating such wallet.

Keep in mind that the size of transactions sent from multi-signature wallets is bigger which means that they are more expensive!

The first slider represents the number of people who will be able to sign a transaction. One person equals one signature. The second one is the number of signatures needed to spend from the address. If you select 10 cosigners and 5 required signatures then only 5 people will have to sign a transaction in order to broadcast it to the network.



In this step, you will have to create a new seed or use your existing one. Make sure to backup it because you won’t be able to sign transactions if you lose your private key or seed. You can also use a hardware device and that’s what I have selected.



You should see your Master Public Key which you have to send to other co-owners of the wallet.



Now you have to enter Master Public Keys of other people. Using a seed is also possible, but it’s not recommended. Cosigning with a hardware device would require you to be physically next to the other person. Since I selected only 2 cosigners, I have to enter only one public key.



That’s all! You should now see your wallet. Make sure that your address in “Receive” tab starts with “3”
 

2. Sending a transaction from a multi-signature wallet

This is actually pretty easy. Enter the address you want to send your bitcoins and the amount like you normally would. You should see the following window, click "Sign".



You can now export the transaction to a file (.txn) and send it to the other person.
To load the transaction you have to go to Options -> Load transaction -> From a file and select the file you exported earlier.



The only thing left is to sign a transaction once again and click “Broadcast”. If you have selected more required signatures then you have to export the transaction and send it to another person once again.



 

3. RBF (replace-by-fee)

If you have the latest Electrum then you should have it enabled by default, but what exactly is it? RBF allows you to replace your unconfirmed transaction with a new one that pays a higher transaction fee so it could be included in the block earlier. It’s really helpful if you accidentally sent a transaction with a small fee. If you want to learn more about RBF check out this thread.

Click right mouse button on the transaction you want to be confirmed faster and click “Increase fee”.

 


4. Cold storage

Cold storage is a method of storing your bitcoins offline to minimalize the surface of potential attack. To use this method you will have to use two different computers. One which will be connected to the Internet and the second one which should be encrypted and not connected to anything.

Create a standard wallet on the computer which has no Internet access and go to Wallet -> Information



You should see your Master Public Key which will be needed for creating a watch-only wallet on the second computer. Copy and move it to the other computer.



Create a new standard wallet on the second computer, but instead of generating a new seed select “Use public or private keys” and paste the key you have copied.



Now you will be able to prepare transactions on your watch-only wallet. The process is similar to sending transactions from a multi-signature wallet which I described earlier. All you have to do is to export the transaction and load it on the offline computer. After signing it, you will have to load it on the online computer in order to broadcast it to the network.
 

5. Coin control

Coin control is one of the most important features which will help you to preserve your anonymity. When you send a transaction, your wallet combines all available inputs (coins) into one. This can be easily tracked using block explorers.

Go to “View -> Show Coins” in order to turn on this feature.



Even if the receiving address for the coins was the same, they will be listed separately. If you want to spend coins from a specific address then you can do it in “Addresses” tab which you have to enable in the “View”.



To send specific coins click right mouse button and select “Spend”. You should see another tab where you have to enter a Bitcoin address to which you want to send your bitcoins, transaction fee and the amount of BTC. The fee you will pay is taken from the coins you have selected.




6. Using a hardware wallet

While creating a new wallet select “Use a hardware device”. I have decided to use my old TREZOR One in the process since it doesn’t allow you to type in the PIN and the passphrase on its screen unlike Ledger Nano S and TREZOR T.

Connect your hardware wallet and you should be able to select it.



Enter your PIN and passphrase (in case you enabled this feature)



One of the biggest advantages is that Electrum supports native SegWit even with hardware wallets! If you want to generate a certain account which you have used in a native app of your wallet then all you have to do is selected whether it was legacy or segwit wallet and change the last digit. 0 will generate the first account, 1 the second and so on. Don’t forget about ‘ at the end.



Your private key is not leaked anywhere when you use your hardware wallet with Electrum. Transactions are signed on the device and they will have to be confirmed by you.


7. Signing/Verifying a message

Bitcoin messages are useful because they can be used for proving the ownership of a certain address. There is no standard for signing messages for nested and native SegWit addresses. That is why it is recommended to use legacy type of addresses. To sign or verify a message go to "Tools -> Sign/verify message".



Type in the message you want to sign and the address that is associated with your private key. Otherwise, it won't work. Click "Sign".

You should always include a timestamp and the purpose of the message to avoid reusing it by a scammer.



You should use the format below if you want to send the message you have just signed to someone else.

Code:

-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
<insert message here>
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----
<insert address here>
<insert signature here>
-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

 
To verify a message, paste all the required information and click "Verify".

If you want to learn more about Bitcoin messages then this tutorial will give you plenty of information. You should consider staking your address here if you are an active user on bitcointalk.


8. Extra information

Electrum is one of the most popular Bitcoin software wallets. It is constantly being updated so things described above can be a little bit different. At the time of writing this tutorial, the latest version is 3.1.3. I will do my best to keep this tutorial up-to-date and add more information in the future. I didn’t have enough free time to test two-factor authentication wallet so I will do it soon.

Electrum 3.1 finally brought us mempool based fee estimation. You can enable it in “Preferences” and use it instead of ETA which might be sometimes not accurate and cause inexperienced users to overpay for their transactions.

As promised before, here comes post no.
TWO

I think I shall update those 10 posts from the OP because they are a bit outdated.
So here is an idea, every time I bump my application I will quote a new post which deserves more merit.

I decided to create the most complete list of hardware crypto wallets. Some wallets are no longer supported, some can be purchased at any time, and some are still available by pre-order. The list turned out, in my opinion, the most impressive. I managed to collect more than 80 wallets. Before this article was created, I knew that there was a maximum of 20. The material is not an advertisement for any product and was created solely for informational purposes. If you know more about any wallets that I haven't mentioned in the list, please let me know. Thanks.

As promised, a bump with deserving more merit post:

At any rate, Mozilla seems to be very intent to kill Firefox if you look at the latest Play Store reviews so I won't be putting too much effort into it. Once the dust settles and there is a clear path to make the extension work in the long run - maybe.

So full add on support for Android Firefox is in the pipeline. However, you can use any add on you like right now on Android with a bit of a workaround.

First of all, you need to download Firefox Nightly, which is essentially the alpha developer version.
Direct link: https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/channel/desktop/
Google Play link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.fenix

You then need to go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/collections/, click "Log in to view your collections", create an account, and then create a new collection with a unique name. Search for all the add ons you want to use, and add them to your collection, BPIP included. Make a note of the unique name you gave the collection, and the 8 digit number in the URL.

Open your Firefox Nightly app, go to settings, scroll to the bottom and select "About Firefox Nightly", and tap the Firefox logo five times until you get a pop up saying "Debug menu enabled".
Go back to settings, scroll down to "Advanced" and select "Custom Add-on Collection".
Enter the 8 digit number from above in the "Collection owner (User ID)" field, and the name you gave your collection in the "Collection Name" field, and hit OK.
The app will apply the changes and then shut down.
Relaunch the app, go to add ons, and you will see all the add ons from your collection listed. Tap the plus sign next to each one to install.

I can confirm that the BPIP extension works just fine using the above steps.

TheBeardedBaby, Man... I don’t doubt your sober assessment of the quality of the quoted posts, but wouldn’t it be better to publish the posts of those users who, at least, are not m'sources? (In my opinion, o_e_l_e_o and Ratimov are already in the spotlight).

Thanks for your opinion, I just post helpful comments which I think deserve more recognition no matter who posted these. This time happens to be two of the good users for sure, but that does not mean that those posts are less valuable than the others. I understand your point and yeah if I have more time to spend here I'll find more useful comments of not so recognized users.

First and last bump for 2021! Next bump 2022

[Theoboy]

Kudos👏
This is a very nice and bold step in helping the forum and I know(to be specific) that the forum needs another helping hand
 I support this and make good use of the responsibility if given to you
Thanks for the bold step

Don't know how many applications are pending for merit source on the meta board but still I support your application and hope @theymos see a need to increase the limit of merit sources as some of them are not active enough or sending relatively very low smerits so he must reconsider the merit source list and add one or two new to the forum.

I also have the merit source app and it's still pending so far. I don't really expect theymos to agree and accept my application as a merit source if he actually finds another user who is more capable and worthy of the free work. But I would happy to take that free job if one day he offers it.

TheBeardedBaby, I support your application, good luck mate.
