Thanks. You are correct - the first PC is my main computer, and now Ledger Live works fine on that PC - without having to run as admin :-)

I did - and again - THANK YOU - I was sleeping poorly due to possibility of loosing a lot of savings

@BitCryptex - you are my hero of the day :-)

2'nd computer and the 2'nd usb port on that computer did the trick...

New USB-cable got me a bit futher. Now when I check if the Ledger is Genuine - I power it up, enter PIN. The PC (win10) now gives i pip (like when installing a new usb device). Now the error message in Ledger Live is - "Oops, couldn't connect to device" I have saved the json error file if needed.

BTW - I can not check the version of Ledger Live, but I downloaded the latest version from ledger.com (2.3.2) - there is no "settings" menu in the program. When Ledger Live starts - the heading is "get started with your Ledger device", and I can chose from "Set up a new device", "Restore", "skip device setup" or "don't have a Ledger device". Could the Ledger Live software be fishy?. I downloaded it from ledger.com, and checked the ssl cert on the site.

There is no need for you to buy a new device. What kind of error do you get when you try to connect your device? Does anything happen at all?

When I try to run the "Genuine check" - I unlock the Ledger, but nothing happens. The Ledger Live asks if I have a hard time connecting, and there is a button for "Repair". When I try to follow the "Repair your Ledger device" procedure. It all stops when I try to load the bootloader. The Ledger displays "Bootloader" in the display, but then nothing more happens.

So I bought some crypto some years ago, and have used a Nano Ledger S to "protect" them. Now I see the Ledger needs upgrading (current MCU 1.1 and firmware 1.3.1). I have my recovery phrase written down. Are there any things I need to avoid doing when upgrading the Ledger?
I find the instructions on ledger.com confusing. I have tried to use the Ledger Live software without success.
Should I buy a new Nano Ledger, or try to upgrade the old?

You think that is the case in this forum too? I do believe in this tech, but sounds like you are telling me that it is all a scam. I don’t believe that.

So, I have been critical on some Telegram channels for ICOs. Things like asking critical questions when the ICO suddenly change the rules of the game mid-ICO. What happens to me? Well, I get banned from the channel. What do you think is ok to ask/chat about in Tekegram? I really appreciate this open forum, where I do not need to kiss **s to not get shut out of a discussion... Generally I think if a project can not answer tough questions, people should know that.

Looks like there is a lot of scammers and scam web sites. As always - get your websites/addresses correct. Use only ‘official’ information channels for correct info...

As a pretty new crypto investor, I try to be a long time investor. I put in about 8 months pay in September/October and have had a 5x turn into a 2x. Today’s 2x is still an amazing roi. But days like we have had last week/month or so is somewhat stressing. But, I did go into the market with money I thought I was ready to ‘risk away’. But to this day, I am not considering selling out. I just kick myself for not investing many years ago...

No matter what wallet you use - go for one that supports a hardwallet like ledger nano s/blue og trezor. And keep a good backup of your Mnemonic Phrase.

That said - I love myetherwallet (except for max gas price is 99 gwei - not high enough for gas wars) and the ledger nano chrome extentions for BTC, LTC and so on.

does someone have a promo code for play2live? Please PM

Yes - only _small investment - max contribution is 0,2 ETH

I see wepower recommend to set gas limit to 300.000.  At 21 gwei, thats 0,0063 ETH for a 0,2 ETH contribution.

Doing business with businesses/admins/ceos who deal with criticism like children is never a good idea. This back and forth does not build trust.

So dualmining does not seem worth longer, since ASICs are mining... I used to mine 25sc pr day - now 1.2 pr day...

I don’t like the Stalinistic approach of kicking critical users from the telegraph channel... many users have voiced dissatisfaction with a silly 0.2eth cap in ico just to get banned.

Since I have not realised anything yet, my benefit has been excitement :-)

I think eth will outperform btc in 2018; but I still diversity in keep both.

During 1st ICO eth, btc and something called $ was accepted. It seems like the 2nd ico will be based on market value, so might be a good idea to get in now - unless they pump up before 2nd ico
