Can anyone explain to me how to add bitcoins to a cold wallet?

Like I said, I completely understand how to set up the cold wallet with tails and made a watch only account. I know how to send them but I don't know how to put them in. Any help would be appreciated

Anyone there making games that use BCH?

There are BTC-giving games out there. If I try to withdraw anyhow, I lose all of it. Faucets too, actually. I have to manipulate CoinPot-using faucets to use them per day.

Thanks, Blockstream. You had me for a while there.

Alternatives to rest.bitcoin.com?

TL;DR: What are some serious alternatives to rest.bitcoin.com (free or paid) offering JSON REST API?

Having no time and resources to maintain my own full node/indexer servers, I have used multiple remote APIs to interact with the BCH blockchain. Sadly, most of them are unstable and tend to quickly die.

I have used Bitprim.org, which went out of business during last year's hard fork upgrade without prior warning and returning incorrect data to its clients. I have used bitcore.io from BitPay, which returns incorrect data for unconfirmed transactions and also has very little documentation - most of the endpoints are not documented. I have used Blockchain.com in the past but they do not support BCH. I tried using BTC.com but they do not support the CashAddress format (so I assumed it is not maintained).

Finally, the best service I used so far is rest.bitcoin.com, it has little downtime and is very well documented. The only issue I faced when I started using it is that it does not serve requests over TOR, which is not a big deal.

The problem is that its quality is decreasing over time. There is more and more downtime, they recently dropped support for testnet (trest.bitcoin.com) WITHOUT WARNING and nothing is said about this in the documentation, the site still says it is fully operational and the error message returned says nothing about the endpoint being obsolete/deprecated. Moreover, they do not seem to maintain their repo, tons of issues are open without answer, I submitted a pull request to it and have received no answer/comment so far.

I am now looking for serious (reliable, documented...) alternatives. I am willing to pay for an API key. Thank you!

Good site for US players of poker?

This thread looked promising but they prefer BTH and when I tried to deposit BTC they referred me to an exchange that is blocked in the US.

I could of course use VPN to get around this, but if I'm already taking a risk gambling with BTC it definitely sounds sketchy AF to be trying to pretend like I'm in another country.

Trading halted for IPO on world's first bitcoin fund

The world's first publicly traded pure bitcoin fund was set to launch on the TSX today. I woke up bright and early getting ready to buy a chunk. Much to my surprise, trading was halted on the brand new stock an hour before the markets even opened. I called my bank's investing line and there seems to be little to no explanation as to why it was halted. Any ideas why this is going on? Has anyone seen this for an IPO before?

Stop the bullshit. If you sell your BTC on Coinbase, you can move it to your bank.

I saw someone posting here earlier today about what to do if BTC gets to some high value and they want to sell some. Most of the responses were straight up uninformed and silly dogshit.

You can look at my post history - I sold in 2017, on Coinbase, and moved 100% of the money (1.6M after I dumped my BCH) into my Bank of America account.

  1. My account was not frozen
  2. My account was not closed
  3. Nothing happened except they wanted me to open a brokerage account with them
  4. I asked before I moved the money what to expect. They said "did you get the money illegally? Because that's all we care about."

So any of these gloom-and-doom edgelord crypton00bs who think the FBI is crawling around looking for people who make 10k on bitcoin and try to cashout are just full of it.

Don't want trouble? Pay your taxes and ride off into the sunset. Want to get ripped off by shady mofos? Sneak around and try to use some sketch-ass exchange for $200 at a time over several months and hope they don't freeze your account for "reasons".

Hope this helps. Normally I just stay quiet, but the misinformation on this was so huge and stupid, I had to chime in.

Lastly - if you don't believe me READ MY POST HISTORY - you will see the consistency of my message. So either I'm telling the truth, or I'm repeating the same lie (for what? internet points?) consistently for the last 2 years - you decide.

HODL what you can, but use your gainz to lock in the life you want! I sure did.

Unpreparedness is the inability to save. A forced inability to save is slavery and condemnation.

The degree to which individuals and society are ill-prepared for unexpected events is a testament to the understanding and value of saving.

In the modern financial era post-1900s, there has been a campaign against saving. So-called "economists" believed that saving causes money to sit "unused" and claim that this damages everyone's wealth. Truth is that these pseudo-economists were mostly businessmen, who were trying to figure out how to make more money for their own businesses. They need consumers to spend, spend, and spend. So that they can become rich.

Unfortunately, they found a way to force people to spend, and that is by constantly destroying the value of people's money. With the creation of the federal reserve, they had the infinite power to force people to spend. This is because, "a penny saved, is a half-a-penny earned, and 1%-of-a-penny earned a few decades later". Saving money became stupid due to these greedy businessmen acting as "economists".

We know this, but as saving money fell out of popularity, so did planning. Because the safety net of efficient saving has been replaced by the inefficient safety net of insurance, or no safety net at all. Insurance creates no wealth, adds no value, and simply acts to distribute to mitigate disaster by redistribution. It may be more helpful than no insurance at all, but insurance is a nasty and necessary middle-man when society cannot save.

Saving and planning are not feasible in this environment. Hospitals saving money for a rainy day makes no sense, when the money is worth 1% of what it was, decades later. Individuals can't do it either, with their savings rates at all-time lows. People live paycheck-to-paycheck, being swindled of their value as every second of every day passes. Forever enslaved.

Inability to save, is a form of slavery, as you are forced to work because nothing you earn will retain it's value. People are even FORCED to put money into the stock market, just to keep up with inflation. This is, again, extremely ideal for the greedy businessmen acting as "economists". They own these companies. They want people to buy stocks. In fact, "401k" has become a thing. A disgusting part of retirement planning, that only further makes them richer at the risk and expense of workers. When a 401k crashes, the businessmen laugh all the way to the bank, while blaming "the market". Meanwhile, the poor worker suffers.

As we see now, in the U.S. in particular, but around the world, people with a lack of savings due to these economic policies being starved, crushed by a global pandemic, it's more clear now than ever that a system that doesn't allow human beings to save for their future or save for disaster, creates an extremely fragile system. There was no "coronavirus insurance policy" everyone signed up for. If we simply HAD SAVINGS we could use our own cash as our insurance policy. The reality is, there are far more disasters possible in life, than any insurance will ever want to cover, or if they did, they would rob us blind in insurance payments, then deny our claims in court. This isn't safety. This is exploitation.

Savings is the absolute most flexible insurance policy possible. With savings, you can survive disaster.

We're feeling it now, and perhaps, this is our greatest opportunity to say: Make Savings Great Again.

It starts with Bitcoin.

Using lightning for anonymization

I was just thinking about bitcoin mixers and I was wondering.
Why not just sent bitcoin over the lightning network?

Wouldn’t you receive coins that are totally different from the once you put into the channel.
There would be no on chain connection between the sent and received coins.

As long as you make sure, to rout the coins over nodes that do not “share” their logs/states, wouldn’t it be untraceable?

Cryptopia Account Holders won! Let's take a moment to honor Peter Watts, QC (Counsel for Acc Holders) and the judge David Gendall.

So Cryptopia Account Holders will get their money back, because the court ruled that our coins are held on trust and we are the beneficial owners.

Full court document:

I've been learning about the technology behind bitcoin. Could someone please help me understand the following?

- Why couldn't the public key be used instead of the address?

- If inputs are unlocked using a multi-signature redeem script (i.e. to spend the inputs two signatures are required), who from those 2 people providing the signatures actually spends the input?

- If I'm a miner and I have access to the pool of unconfirmed transactions, why can't I just change one of the output of one of those transaction to my address?

Thank you for any answers :D
