Security / Re: Where are my bit coins?
« on: August 11, 2011, 08:44 pm »
Do you seen any uncomfirmed? MT. Gox can take a long time sometimes, but usually when i send to my wallet, it shows up as an unconfimed transaction almost immediately. Is this your first transaction? You wallet will take some time to connect to everything when you first set it up. this is most likely the issue. How many connections do you have?

Is this your first transaction? if so, that is why its taking so long. I always recommend to download the wallet a day or so before transferring coins to it so it can do its "thang"...

Damn! if you try to encrypt your entire drive with trucypt it will erase the entire drive. I wish I would have known about it before all this.  I gues I can make up encrypted partitions and then move all sensitive material into the encrypted areas..

Next hd that I get is going to get the entire thing trucrypted (will be the first thing that I do.)

Did you use a old mt. gox password? or was it a easy password to pick? Im sure that there are many hackers that are trying to get into accounts at the market. What are you going to do? report it to the police?

Most likely, if they were stolen that you will never see them again. Click on the lower right to contact the sr admin and ask them..(on the market)

But, is it a new account or old? do you use the same password at other sites like mt gox, etc?

Remember you can always use an old address if needed. (not a good idea at all for security reasons) but one time (Not on silk road) I copied and pasted the wrong number in, Luckily, it was an old number that I used for Mt. gox.. So it got there.

No need to worry, and also remember there has to be 6 confirmations before  it will show up. I have seen 6 take as little as about 1/2 hour to a couple hours. Thats why I always use a wallet. you can see it when it reaches the 6 mark....

Dont ever just transfer from exchanger to SR.. (if you did, just dont do it again)

Speaking of encryption. You can encrypt a windows HD without hurting or deleting existing files, correct? but what about Mac? I am under the impression that if you try to encrypt the whole HD it will wipe everything, right?

IS there a way to encrypt a mac's hd without losing any info? and without backing it up first?

The only reason Im not mining today is because of the block difficulty. Now, if it gets to a reasonable amount, Ill be hashing like a mofo.  I speculated on the btc because only 1 or 2 people caused it to  tumble. Now, if it were thousands or even hundreds, then I would have thought it would be in the cents by now. Right now, with the cost of electricity, the difficulty level to obtain the chain and the cost of a good GPU processor(s)/machine, is hardly worth the effort.

But when the difficulty drops by even by 25 percent, im probably at least going to dabble in mining. Just for a hobby and maybe expand from there...

But overall, speculating on the bitcoin market as a day trader or even as a hobby is extremely dangerous. (unless your the owner of mybitcoin.com  >:( )

I'm starting to think that something is up. I can access black market just fine and others too. I just cant access SR!!! and when it does almost "show up" its all blue text, no pictures and it doesn't show the correct btc in my account. But when i open up my windows tor, no problem..

Ideas?

Yea, not make the feedback anonymous either. Plus with the ability for the vendor to respond would be awesome.. Still doesn't stop the buyers to open up millions of accounts though...Thats what I would like to see slow down.

The thing that is sooo odd is that my windows tor is running very good, but my mac tor is giving me the 504 error, i was able to get in once a few minutes ago, but it was blue text, etc. the whole thing seems strange..

their clearnet site has this message:

So the server went down unexpectedly today. This was very unnerving because we thought it had somehow been seized or something terrible like that. Fortunately it was just some kind of glitch and we were able to reboot. Everything has been backed up and is totally current, but we are not going to turn the site back on for a couple of days while we work out a way to prevent such problems. We are terribly sorry for this inconvenience, but we want to provide the best service possible, and random outages just aren't going to cut it. We know it must be terribly frustrating, but we are taking the better-safe-than-sorry approach and we hope you understand.

That message was when they went down a month ago. I't changed since. It weird becuase on one of my machines i can get in every time but the other just goes to a blank page or 504 error.. i wonder if envious is right. LE is trying to block onion addresses or is messing with it somehow..

I know this would be a pain to implement, but what about if a buyer had to "buy" a buyers account and then that buyer has a credit of said money. So, if a buyers account cost 5btc he would get it back in product purchases. I don't know if this would stop scammer buyers/bogus feedback but its a thought.

Or to make a buyers account you need to deposit 10 btc's into your account. That would help stop all the new  buyer accounts and that buyer would need to spend those btc's. so most likely it would be on multiple transactions. Or have a 20btc deposit minimum.

Every time you log in you touch it and it creates a new key to let you in. I feel a lot safer with it...
as CP said however, the only caveat is losing it. get a piercing on your nutsack and make that shit your keychain!

Already done, the only problem is that when banging the wife she complains every time it hits into her, lol... (she would kill me if she saw this post, lol even though im joking)
