Recover wallet with 18 word seed

Hi,

I had btc in an electrum wallet from several years ago. I remember about a year ago accessing the wallet and selling some btc. I remember getting a new seed for a wallet containing my remaining btc at that time. That seed has 18 words. When I went to restore that wallet today using the seed, it seems electrum seeds don’t have 18 words. Yikes. I found my original 12 word seed and accessed that wallet and saw that it was emptied back about a year ago (consistent with my recollection). But I’m so confused how I have an 18 word seed now that doesn’t work... I don’t understand how I would have gotten an 18 word seed if that’s not what electrim provides. Any ideas?

Open-sourcing BlockPress

Hey Bitcoin community,

I am pleased to announce that BlockPress – the on-chain social media platform that existed as an independent memo-like protocol implementation in 2018, is now open-sourced.

I am not a member of the original team. However, I was a part of the small team that tried to take over the development in late 2018 after BlockPress announced they had stopped their work on the project. We acquired the source code for some BCH intending to release it in open source but unfortunately, as the code was quite messy and life had taken a different turn overall, we put the project on the shelf.

Today, as censorship on the global social media platforms is in full swing, we believe this is the right moment to enrich the Bitcoin Cash infrastructure with another Memo protocol implementation. We believe in the power of on-chain social media. We will try hard to deliver another robust solution that will help promoting truly open and decentralized media alongside memo.cash and member.cash.

The code we release is exactly what was received from u/etherbid in 2018, and it will not run as-is without a few patches and fixes. We are working to provide them asap.

We cannot judge the quality of the original codebase and design decisions behind it, but we truly hope it will become a valuable contribution to the emerging industry.

The immediate roadmap is to transition to minimal Memo protocol with 0x6d prefixes, and I will share the broader vision soon.

At this moment, we are not sure that all modules are working as expected, but the blockchain parser and basic UI work fine.

Thanks for your attention, and consider putting some coins in a tip jar! bitcoincash:qqnls5p49cs0dl52k5qp6v9d4yx4ulpe95qkp7404e

P.S.

We will base our Coinparty hackathon work on this codebase, and we have two slots available within our team. If you are interested in participating and still haven't come up with an idea, and if you have experience with Ruby-on-Rails and/or Angular, drop me a message!

Block size/time question

What was the reason for BCH community to go with large block size rather than shorter block time?

E.g. instead of 32MB blocks on approx every 10 minutes wouldn’t it be more functional to have 4MB block every minute? This way getting confirmations would be much more easier all the while keeping the throughout the same. It is not just the hardware space that keeps improving after all, so does the miner connection speeds.

I am sure there is a good reason, I just cannot figure out what that is.

Sideshift does not release coins.

In the past week I exchanged 30k in bitcoin cash to btc (almost) always instantly on my wallet, but my last transaction is not credited to my wallet after 11 hours. Does anybody have experience with this? Contacted via chat but no response ...
