I understand I dont have a lot of posts here, and while I get the point you are trying to make I was simply trying to share something I thought would be of interest to people here. According to your logic, I'm *not* supposed to post until I have more posts?!?!? Help me out here....

First off: I appreciate the owner of setgetgo responding to people in this thread!

Second, I wanted to say my initial reference to receiving BTC payments anonymously via setgetgo was, in retrospect, not the best use of verbiage (on my part).. What I was trying to convey is merchants who decide to keep their BTC become targets due to how easily it is to check how much is in their wallet. Want to know how much money wikileaks has? You could simply go through the motions of a transaction, get their wallet id, and proceed to do the legwork to see how much is in said wallet. Or how about that entity that has a BTC address posted for donations? Again, same problem. With setgetgo, no one knows the wallet they are sending the money to, so there is a higher degree of obfuscation. Yes, you can do something similar with Trezor but only on a single use basis which wont scale with the scenarios I outlined above.

So sorry to the setgetgo creator for the inadvertent misunderstandings on my part.

I stumbled across a website (www.setgetgo.com) that lets you receive BTC payments through payment links/buttons or API. Whats cool about it is all you need to do is provide them a BTC wallet address you want to receive payment in, what BTC amount you want to receive, and it will generate the HTML you need to put a link or buy now button! First thing that came to mind was to use this for e-bay transactions you want to be paid in BTC. Their fee is very reasonable (0.0025 BTC per transaction) and you dont need to sign up or provide them any information. I suppose you could also do this to hide how much BTC is in your wallet as no one knows which wallet is receiving the payment. Pretty slick!

I am not affiliated with the site in any way, I just wanted to see what everyones thoughts were on this as I hadnt seen something like this before now.

I am trying to receive my BTG and am having an issue. I have searched everywhere trying to find what (if anything) I am doing wrong and am still stumped, so hoping someone here can help me out.

I have a Full Node Bitcoin Core wallet running within a VM. This wallet was used before, during, and after the BTG fork. From 10-21-2017 to 11-30-2017 this wallet only received BTC funds (I never sent anything out of this wallet).

I created a second VM with a full node BTC wallet. The blockchain is fully downloaded and ready to go.

Today (12-01-2017) I sent all my BTC from the wallet described above to a Trezor hardware wallet.

My original plan was to export the keys from my BTC wallet and import them to my BTG wallet to receive my BTG, but its not working. I am able to dump the private keys for each transaction on the BTC wallet. When I import them on the BTG wallet, the response comes up as "null" and I dont have any BTG. I have tried doing the import on the BTG machine with and without a wallet.dat from the BTC machine.

What am I missing here?!?!?!?!?

I bought it off eBay, so while the unit was *new* I am not the original owner so not sure they would give me support (which is why I am asking here). Due to lack of responses here, that might be my only viable option. I am going to see if the person I got it from on eBay can maybe ask on my behalf.

If anyone else has any ideas though, or has access to an original SD image that I coudl try I would greatly appreciate it.

I have an Antminer L3+ that has been working great the past couple months. The other day I noticed the fault indicator was blinking, so I turned it off, waited abour 10 seconds, then powered it back on. The fans spin, but the front lights never come on. My initial thoughts are the SD card probably needs to be reflashed. I looked on the support page for Bitmain has and while I found a firmware for the L3+, its not an image file and looks to be the one you use to do an upgrade from within the unit. Since mine is not operational, I cant use this one. I was able to find an image in one of the other sections, but they dont tell you which Bitmain unit its for.

Can anyone help me figure out how to get this fixed? Thanks!

I tried using the search to find an answer to this, but came up with nothing. Hopefully I am asking for help in the right area...

I have a Bitmain Antminer L3+ that has been working fine for the last several months. I took a look at it this morning though and the red fault indicator was blinking, so I powered it off (waited about 20 seconds) then powered it back on again. The fans spin, but I get no front light indicators at all. My initial thought was my SD card corrupted, so I looked through Bitmain's support pages (which totally suck). I was able to find a firmware download for the L3+, but its not the actual image of the SD card and looks to be the one to upgrade the firmware from within the L3+'s interface which obviously does me no good. I also found a "Flashing SD card with image - Tools and Instructions to Image SD card" on Bitmain's support page:

https://shop.bitmain.com/support.htm?pid=007201604120945219855QObfk20066C     

Which does appear to be an actual SD card image, but it doesnt state whether this is for an L3+ or not.

Can anyone confirm what it means when you get no front light indicators on an L3+? If indeed the firmware needs to be re-flashed, can someone point me to a valid SD card image I can use??

Thanks!
