This is worse than many people think.

There will be blacklist of "non-compliant" entities. So moving company outside of EU won't work.
If actors like coinbase,kraken and binance want to keep their SEPA gateways, they'll have to comply.

This is an attempt to convert cryptocurrency system into Banking like system.

At this moment there's no such regulation in draft but i can imagine that the next regulation -  after 12 months, will be prohibiton to exchanges in EU from accepting any kind of transfers from unhosted wallets.
If you don't comply you'll be kicked out of system and you'll never be able to cash out these funds in EU.

When i do that i receive information "funding transaction not found".



However see my transaction history;

Hi,

I recently tried to use lightning network. I created new channel then i think i left electrum before channel open transaction confirmed.

After i ran electrum again few hours later, the channel opening transaction was confirmed.
However the channel state is "reestablishing" for long time now




I tried to use force close channel but i get following error:



Any ideas what can be done to release the funds or make the channel working?

Thanks @pooya87, i will try it in next week when i have some more free time Finally a hint that makes some sense.

Not deseperate to recover but just very interested to see what is it and how it ended up in blockchain.info.

I made multiple tries. wallet.aes.json and so on.
I also managed to access mine blockchain.info wallet just now and download it + decrypt it. The private keys matches. So the key that is problematic was somehow imported into blockchain.info and it was considered it valid at some point. Same private key is present in JSON unencrypted blob in 2020. Some sort of hint is, that the wallet was used around 2013.




Yes i have tried it after downloading encrypted wallet from blockchain.info and using this tool, to see what blockchain.info stores in it's JSON blob.
Such test, completely overrules scenario where backup file was somehow modified/had its integrity violated. The exact same private is being returned by blockchain now in JSON, after downloading wallet using btcrecovery python tools in 2020. This results in exactly same weird 33 characters private key.


When interacting with BC.info user interface - the key shows up in "Imported Addresses" and while clicking on "Show private key" on blockchain.info it displays "Unsupported Private Key".

So TLDR: I managed to access blockchain wallet using web interface and their "GUID" login, but i cannot make any transactions or export private key - as it shows up as invalid/unsupported one. The 33 character private key from 2013 backup is the same as from 2020 backup.   Scenario where backup is corrupted is excluded i think. Therefore the key at some point was considered valid by blockchain if it end up being in wallet backup.

If someone manages to provide a good hint, i'll make sure you get paid.  

Yes, i have tried doing using blockchain import tool.

Doesn't recognise the file.

Although the last transaction i remember on the wallet is from 2013, it could have been created even earlier. (2011-2013)
Therefore some legacy privkey format could have been used.

Hi guys

I'm totally stuck trying to recover very old wallet from blockchain.info (likely V1). I've searched entire web using keywords coming from json file but no luck.
Perhaps some expert developer who is aware of security algos can advise me on this case.

- I got password to the wallet but no email access, therefore this file is all what i have.
- If "priv" field is encoded, i can try to decode it with the password - but i need to be aware of tech specification for this "priv" field.
- Wallet is from 2013.
- My note on the backup says "wallet for bitcoin-qt client", not sure if this is true. It doesnt look fit for bitcoin-qt at all.

Problem is that i cannot restore or extract the private key from this file.. it's very weird, i heard it's base58 + some custom implementation.
This is the wallet file and i have no total clue how to decode this. The private key is very weird, it's just 33 characters. Is it even valid?
The "addr" points to correct BTC address, therefore is fully valid.



{"addr":"1MHJxxxxxxxxxxxxxxYMwR", (34 characters valid address) "priv":"uNKxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxBfM"} (33 characters private key)

Is anyone aware what is "priv" key format for this wallet?

I'm not talking about releasing names. I know that they dont.

Usually, however, there's information when there was anyone arrested - with no names. Just read interpol announcements.

The most interesting thing is that there's no information about anyone arrested with the case.
Means the author is probably still here?

Why dont you purchase commercial certificate for $40 that stays for a year instead of deadling with let's encrypt renewals?

I wouldnt trust this mixer.
If they have problem with Invalid certificate error for so long, then they're not serious with security and privacy at all.

Sorry but expired certificate is pure sign of amatorship or abandoned ship.

Does wirex offer virtual cards?
I believe i've seen them in profile max 1-2 months ago.

From what i understand reversal trading is buying more when price goes down.. this is totally not what i mean.
You can short on touch of EMA's 20/50/200 with stop loss above - just an example.

Can bot do it? Not sell, but short using margin. Selling previously purchased asset isn't shorting.

Does this bot know how to short? Like on bitfinex?
Or is it totally unprepared to bear market? Like 99% of bots?

10+ btc received/sent < 2013.
No public addresses, as i replied - had people trying to sell me these. I do checkups.

+1 for using the brain, unlike few others here

This way, but not exactly. Overall assumption is correct.

I dont need public addresses, had already some people trying sell me these.

I dont care much, it's just forum. Where some members are behaving in weird way, that's the only reason i'm discussing it.
Can as well make new account if i cared...
Same as if i wanted to do something shady, i'd make a new account and post...


Because the way i utilize addresses related to my business would be useless. simple.

Oh! So you suddenly consider to think that there might be a legitimate reason to buy old bitcoin address!  
What a change of mind. You just mark it with a "lie" keyword.


Anyway this is funny and i dont know why i'm even continuing this conversation. Must be bored on weekend.
I assume most people flaming here dont have anything to offer - based on received messages.

At the end -> Who wants to sell will sell, who doesn't... wont. Simple.
