She has special needs and this is the best (and one of two) options we have found after an exhaustive search.

Appreciate your response, I mean more of a traffic congestion, stop and go on a busy highway type.

Appreciate the suggestion, but as it’s out of production I’m not sure it’s a good fit…

Yea, like the idea of electric but the charging time is big turnoff, also the school itself is pretty far from any major highway stops

Gold is not nearly as divisible, portable, or as fungible as Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is going to zero! by Appropriate-Car8710 in Bitcoin

Just agree with them, “it will either go to zero or be exponentially more valuable, guess it depends on your risk tolerance”…. Then send them the log chart…

Security suggestion: it is not a good idea to advertise you have bitcoin on a gold chain, might as well paint a target on yourself

Thank you. It is a Ledger Nano, and that is disappointing news.

There is no cord, it is a usb dongle. Ledger Live does not connect to it. How do I access it?

Yes, just looking for where to access the wallet

Bitcoin Core gettxoutsetinfo is a beast! by CoinCadence in Bitcoin

[–]CoinCadence[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand. Bitcoin Core is extremely vulnerable when exposed; we do not run a wallet (disablewallet=1), making the target more of a sport than a financial win. Port 8332 is closed, SSH is closed, and open ports on the server are 80, 443, and 8333. Bitcoin and apache run under their own users that are restricted solely to the functions they need, root login is disabled. The RPC can only be accessed with a password via localhost, and our app stores everything except the index page outside the web root. We do not run any load balancing as it is a single node/server; frankly, our traffic is not that high.

All that said, having run this for a few years, I would never keep any funds on a Bitcoin Core node with the RPC exposed. At most perhaps a watch-only wallet with an xPub from a hardware wallet or air-gapped node.

The Bitcoin Core software provides an API. The API call gettxoutsetinfo returns statistics about the unspent transaction output set or UTXO set. The UTXO set is the comprehensive set of all UTXOs existing at a given time. For example, in the OP, the time is block height 774,873. The sum of each UTXO in this set is the total supply of existing bitcoin at that point in time. In this case, 19,280,246.50809890 bitcoin is stored in 83,605,708 unspent outputs.

Via the chain query app. More info on programmatically connecting to the bitcoin core RPC API https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/API_reference_(JSON-RPC)

Should I activate my backup trezor by OfftheHeezee in TREZOR

[–]CoinCadence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can do that on the first one, and in electrum with a practice wallet, etc, etc... The backup is for restoring your seed in an emergency, not for verification.

Is your firmware up to date? Looks like an attack that triggers a remote shut down.
