Re: What is all this "Satoshi" drama?

Here's definitevely why it's not Craig Wright and partially why I assert my prior claim on Eastern Canadian.

Code:
http://satoshinakamoto.me/?s=realized

He repeatedly spells realize with a Z. Australians do not. They spell it as realise.

Code:
https://grammarist.com/spelling/realise-realize/

Quote
Realize is the preferred spelling in American and Canadian English, and realise is preferred outside North America.

Code:
http://satoshinakamoto.me/?s=colour

He spells color as colour which is the way it is also taught in Canada.

The realiZe/coloUr combo means he could only ever be a Canuck, which excludes Craig Wright.

Some interesting threads to follow here. Reading Sirius' posts he states his name as 'Martti Malmi" in this thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=216717.msg2275578#msg2275578

Which is confirmed here:

2014 Interview
https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/39azff/martti_malmi_basically_for_the_first_year_2009_i/

Still I like the idea of tracking these early contributors as I agree it's possible they may know/be satoshi.

I am one of the people who lost HKN by sending directly to Yobit from Orderbook.io. I put my name on the spreadsheet talked about in the Telegram channel a few weeks ago. I still not have any HKN returned. Is there another step I need to take after getting my name on the spreadsheet?

Thanks for any help. I've been contacting Yobit since January and not a single response to any ticket.

For ICOs the best thing is to read the white papers and decide for yourself.

My HKN from Orderbook to Yobit are restored after emails to Hacken and Yobit (look 1 page back for adresses). A few weeks ago Hacken mentioned in this form they are working on it with Yobit to restore the misplaced HKN tokens, but that itwill take time.

I know a little about Yobit culture. They are not "punktlich". Better ask Hacken to ask them the status of the request.

I looked for these email addresses and could not find them. Can you post them or point me to the correct thread page?

I tried to PM Hacken Project but I can not because I am a newbie.

Just would like to get my HKN back I sent to Yobit in this transaction from Orderbook.io https://etherscan.io/tx/0x3629ba669168272f6dbea518d158f70dca1f7b3c72515f2fcbd5fe4b123f1b0f

Has anyone had any success getting their HKN from YoBit when it's not credited? I've seen other people with this problem but no solutions yet.

I made the mistake of sending it directly from Orderbook.io to YoBit in this transaction: https://ethplorer.io/tx/0x3629ba669168272f6dbea518d158f70dca1f7b3c72515f2fcbd5fe4b123f1b0f#pageSize=100

That transaction was on 01/14/2018. I have submitted tickets with zero response from YoBit.

Any suggestions as to what to try next?





Yup. Your tokens went also to Yobit main account 0x65bb6b47F6458c9B1C66B25CCa8565086d172277. Me and others have the same problem. If you read back Hacken responded on this issue.

Hacken is negotiating with Yobit to restore the HKN's to the user deposit adress again. So we have to wait little longer...   Sad

Have you gotten your HKN back from Yobit yet?

I checked Orderbook.io and mine have not been returned and are not credited in my wallet on Yobit.

But thinking that extrapolating charts will make it isn't wise thing to think.
Why?
Because you must include volume. Do you know what volume must be to support 40K price, let alone 100K ?
Going from 10$ to 1000$, wasn't that hard when volume with 10$ was 100.000$, or maybe a million.
Just multiply it x30-x50, and it will make it there.
Now multiply price of current BTC price to volume (and it will require more, volume, because rising so exponentially it would make it selling pressure, even harder, because it's just unrealistic price for an asset, because still BTC is mostly used as a speculation vehicle)
50-100B$? Or more? And that's only for BTC. There would have to be like literally more volume than on the most of the stock exchanges, and that's just a really big and wishful thinking, especially seeing that when interest widen off - the volume is literally slummered, and is going down and down.
And a lot of volume is only bots trading, it really makes you think how much real activity is there.

BTW. - I wonder how mining would work - and would it consume energy not of a small state, at 100K, it would consume energy of a big country.
Inflating prices of GPUs also, and probably CPUs... Hell, you don't want to see it really, it would really messed up consumer electronics prices, badly.

But I can be wrong. Just makes you think it would actually drain volume from real stock exchanges into tokens world exchanging.
Wow, and it would be strange to see.

I don't really see what volume has to do with price. You just buy or sell a different amount of BTC. If the volume is 100M USD traded it doesn't make a difference if BTC is $1 or $100K the only difference is at $1 there's 100M BTC traded that day and at $100K there's 1000 BTC traded that day. It's divisible to 8 decimal places, we'll have to soon switch to talking in millibits.

The energy argument has been eloquently addressed by Andreas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T0OUIW89II

The current 9th weekend has already started with a 10% decline. Statistically, this would equate to a 77% chance of a bear market underway.

Calculated how?

I can't say for sure we're out of the bear market but the current trend is clearly up. Trade the trend till you are wrong  then reassess. Shorting an uptrend just because an a,b,c 1,2,3 progression says so is just too risky for me. All the Elliot Wave people I've seen have been calling for us to go back to 5k since the start of the uptrend and getting wrecked the whole time. From what I've seen from you and others it appears to me that Elliot Wave is most accurate on weekly charts or longer and not as accurate on daily charts or shorter. Either that or it's not being applied correctly.

There's math traders, there's TA traders, there's fundamental traders, there's trend traders, there's gut traders. None of them are right all the time but if you can combine them properly hopefully you can be right more than 50% of the time and that's all you can really hope for. Risk management is where the profit is made in trading.

Trading masterluc's chart https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/YRZvdurN-The-target-of-current-bubble-lays-between-40k-and-110k/ has still proven correct.

I like this chart a lot. However you conveniently left out 2/11 which was followed by a green candle and a run of over $2k. I think this chart applies aptly in a bear market, but are we in a bear market? I recall during the run up from October that every Monday morning price seemed to go up.

Looking back:

Sunday 11/12 - followed by a green candle and big rally
Sunday 11/19 - followed by a green candle and consolidation
Sunday 11/26 - followed by a green candle and rally
Sunday 12/3   - followed by a green candle and big rally
Sunday 12/10 - followed by a huge green candle

Then the pattern flips to bear starting with your first date of 12/17.

So this pattern may just as well tell us tomorrow will be a big green day if we are out of the bear and back in the bull. Looks like Mondays are trend confirmation days.

So the last few weeks bittrex has been like "we're not supporting US residents anymore. You aren't one, right?"
And I was obviously like, "no" even though I am.

Are you sure you aren’t talking about Bitfinex? I haven’t seen anything from Bittrex that says they aren’t supporting U.S. accounts.

Re: CoinTracking - Profit/Loss Portfolio and Tax Reporting for Digital Currencies
by
shunyata
on 21/10/2017, 16:40:27 UTC

1) I interpret from our IRS tax code that crypto-to-crypto exchanges when TRADING (not simply investing) triggers a taxable event, similar to how stock trading is treated in the US. Ergo, crypto-to-crypto exchanges do not qualify as a 1031 like-kind exchange (which wouldn't be taxed). Is CoinTracking able to account for these individual taxable events when I make trades from crypto-to-crypto? Day/swing traders will inevitably trigger hundreds of taxable events through the year, and I just want to know if this is something that CoinTracking actually tracks where I'd be able to bring the CoinTracking tax report to my tax preparer to lessen a lot of confusion come tax season.

I've been looking into like-kind exchanges because it would save me taxes on the BTC I moved into ALTs this year. So far it looks like like-kind exchanges will not be allowed. AFAIK Bitcoin is currently treated as an asset, like gold, for tax purposes so trading Bitcoin for ETH would be like trading Gold for Silver and that does not fall under a 1031 exchange:

Edit: Won't let me link the page. Google "IRS Revenue Ruling 82-166"

Anyone else having trouble with Coinbase not sending the right fees when the API is used (or CoinTracking importing wrong?)?

I just setup the Coinbase API and had previously used the CSV export to import transactions. I was going through to delete the duplicate transactions and found that on all the transactions that had come through the API (luckily i had labeled them API) the fees are wrong, always too low.

Example:
Recent transaction I paid 1.86 in fees according to Coinbase website and the CSV export. However when the Coinbase API imported the transaction into CoinTracking the fee came in at 1.71. 

Every single API transaction imported has a fee that is too low, always seems to be .15 too low from what I can tell.  Huh

I am trying to track my BCH transactions. I would assume I could just add the addresses as an 'alt coin wallet import' but BCH is not listed in the drop down.

Is tracking of BCH addresses not supported yet?

Re: My Ledger Nano S has been hacked

on 30/08/2017, 04:03:03 UTC
When the ledger does a transaction where change is involved it generates a new address for the change each time. This is to obfuscate the transactions as much as possible.

You can verify you own the change address by downloading https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/ (preferably to an air gapped computer) and then while offline input your ledger seed and passphrase if used.

Then under 'Derivation Path' select BIP44 you can find your path in the Chrome app by clicking on the account then selecting ACCOUNT SETTINGS, under ADVANCED you will see the 'Root Path' mine was 44'/0'/0'. This will show you all the derived addresses that you may have used for receiving.
To look at the change addresses try adding a 1 in the External/Internal field. If the address it is trying to send output #2 is listed there then you are good to go knowing those funds are going back to your device.

Re: Can I send BCH to the same public address as I would BTC?
by
shunyata
on 05/08/2017, 22:21:28 UTC
yes and no.

the private and public keys are the same. however for it to be considered BCH the transaction has to be created for and broadcast on the BCH chain instead of the BTC chain. BCH transactions will not be accepted on the BTC chain and vice versa which is why it's no longer required to split your coins for security sake.

not sure ledger is the solution. they specifically say not to mine to the device because lots of small transactions can take hours to process and possibly overheat and destroy your ledger. blockchain.info import seems better to me. once imported send the coins to your ledger in one transaction.

Direcbet has been awesome. Thanks so much for running such a great site. Always paid out instantly and very trustworthy. That is why I had no problem placing a .4 BTC bet on Trump leaving before the end of his first term. However I had just placed the bet a day before closure and I didn't feel comfortable letting that amount ride for possibly 4 years at a company no longer operating. I emailed them and they refunded it, cause they are awesome.

So now my question is does anyone know a reputable place offering the "Trump to leave before end of his term" bet for bitcoin?
