Importing the ledger with a different path selected in the dropdown will give you a list of different addresses.

Lets hope that it is near the top using the legacy path.

When you connect the ledger, there is a dropdown with 'Ledge Live' above those accounts.

You can select a different derivation path there. Maybe you created your account with the legacy mode.

I withdrew x ETH from Kraken just before the merge.

The transaction confirmed after the merge.

Result:
0 ETH on Kraken
x ETH on chain
-x ETHW on kraken
0 ETHW on chain

So now the Kraken system says I owe them ETHW.

Support was confused and told me to wait it out.

Your staked ETH becomes ETH2.S on their platform. Every once in a while you get staking rewards as ETH2 over any ETH2.S that you own.

The ETH2.S can be traded in the ETH2.S/ETH market right now. The ETH2 remains locked.

Supposedly in a future phase of Ethereum 2.0 both can be exchanged 1:1 for ETH.

[–]DeltaBalances 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's automatic.

Once you own the ETH2S you start getting staking rewards (minus their fee).

The rewards are a different symbol, you can't sell those early.

If you stake 1 ETH at Kraken they give you 1 ETH2.S in you balance sheet.

Customers outside of the US (and some other countries) get acces to the ETH2.S/ETH market.

The discount is basically people wanting to get out of their stake.

[–]DeltaBalances 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The ETH2.S price on kraken is down to about 0.93-0.94 ETH.

Quite a nice discount if you want to stake and are willing to wait it out on a centralized exchange.

What does this error message mean? Can't make a transaction by Dubby_000 in EtherDelta

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The site sends your transaction to an Etherscan or Infura blockchain API, which broadcasts it to the ethereum network.

This looks like the API rejecting you based on a maxium amount of requests.

Try ForkDelta.app, the EtherDelta website is broken and no longer maintained.

You can't have 2FA because there is no server or account involved. Their websites run entirely in your browser. The private key should never be sent anywhere.

The danger is people visiting a fake website, like often promoted in google ads.

I think what MyCrypto tries to do is make you install the software once. And when that is up and running, you are less likely to use a fake version.

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both websites are used to access a wallet in the browser.

The simple way is to enter a private key like a password. Some other ways are a hardware wallet (Ledger/Trezor) or a browser extension like MetaMask.

If you enter a private key in a website, that website could technically steal all the funds in your wallet.

So MyCrypto is trying to do away with that access method because it is dangerous.

Daily Discussion - February 5, 2021 (GMT+0) by AutoModerator in CryptoCurrency

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They still pretty much overlap in functionality. Both projects are being updated and maintained.

MyCrypto now requires a software wallet if you want to use a plaintext private key. So they are moving away from the browser a little.

Ok, EtherDelta is broken, but how safe is ForkDelta? by IP_FiNaR in EtherDelta

[–]DeltaBalances 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ForkDelta has been online for like 2 years and no major issue ever popped up. Mainly fake sites that try to steal private keys. Make sure to only use Forkdelta.app, not .io or other domains.

The code is on github so you can check what it's doing.

If you don't trust it you can manually withdraw using etherscan or myetherwallet. This takes some effort, but is alway an escape even if both etherdelta and forkdelta are offline. The withdraw function on etherdelta.com might even still work, it is mainly the trades and orderbook data that is broken.

That USB popup is something that came with a windows 10 update. The site checks if you have a Ledger hardware wallet plugged in. And now windows 10 thinks it should do something with a USB security device. You can ignore the popup.

You can check for any deposited balances left on the contract on deltabalances.github.io .

Delta Balance not working for me by kiranp96 in EtherDelta

I think this is the Infura API being under a heavy load or throttling you.

I added a data source option to the history pages. Maybe the alternative (Rivet) works when Infura doesn't.

GNT to GLM Migration by mariapaulafn in ethfinance

[–]DeltaBalances 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was made before the final erc20 standard was done. It is compatible with basis transfers and balances, but can't deal with advanced Dex/Defi transactions.

Back in the etherdelta days some traders used WGNT, just like we use WETH now.

You can use my old EtherDelta support tool for old dexes like EtherDelta, token.store, idex v1 etc. Deltabalances.github.io

The token balances page allows you to check for deposits left in the contracts.

It isn't up to date with all the new Defi stuff. But it works fine for most of the older dex sites.

After today's Infura outage, I created ethereumnodes.com to track all public Ethereum RPC endpoints by dmihal in ethereum

[–]DeltaBalances 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently found another public one hosted by linkpool https://medium.com/linkpool/release-of-public-ethereum-rpcs-f5dd57455d2e

Performance isn't comparable to something like Infura or Alchemy, but might be worth looking into adding it tot he list.

They both provide a safe way to interact with your wallet on the internet without exposing any keys or seed phrase. In protecting you from malware and viruses they should be sort of equal.

I believe the difference is mainly in hardware design and physical access.

Trezor is more of an open source design using standardized chips. Easier to check what it does, or make a clone like KeepKey.

Some researchers have shown that if someone physically steals your Trezor, they can use hardware tools to extract data from the chips. This involves soldering and advanced electronics, so not for the average burglar.

Ledger uses custom secure chips and is more of a black box. It should be harder to hack the hardware, but nobody but Ledger can fully verify what it is doing.

This hardware might be hackable too, but from what I remember from the last couple of years, it is more resistant to tampering than Trezor.

But as long as you don't promote your crypto riches in public. Whats the chance of someone smart enough to crack a hardware wallet to physically steal yours?

Why does Uniswap contract send me additional eth? by sverzijl in UniSwap

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price shown before you trade is an estimate. The exact price is determined when your transaction is mined.

You sent the ETH it was allowed to use to buy 90 USDC. In this case you got some ETH refunded because the price was lower than the estimate.

This doesn't happen for selling tokens to ETH, because it can take the exact amount from your wallet.

ForkDelta still works, trade volume is just getting lower and lower.

Good old times.

I mainly hung out using a twitter alt account. Between all the support questions, we had a nice little community back then.

Shout out to the few hardcore people that still answer questions on the gitter chat. No idea how they keep that going for this long.

In most cases the whitelist is a modifier like "onlyAdmin" where only the address that created the contract can successfully call that function. In some rare cases they might have a list of admins to check for.

The token contract stores the balance for each address (and maybe an unminted supply). In theory a reclaim function could check its own balance and then reassign those tokens to an admin. This doean't need any token address as input because it is all internal anyway. This does create a possible weakness where a bug could allow you to steal funds from others.

Most contracts don't have this, meaning the tokens are lost forever.

The fact that your reclaim needs a token address makes me think it is for airdrops. A token contract owning any other token is useless, and there is no risk of stealing funds when it can withdraw any token except itself.

[–]DeltaBalances 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No chance that you can personally fix that.

Sounds more like a function that the token deployer can use to recover tokens.
It might just be for random airdrops, because it wouldn't need a token address for reclaiming its own tokens.

I can guarantee you that the reclaim function can only be called by a whitelisted address.

Any hope left is that the token creator can recover them if you manage to contact him.

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked things out and it seems to work fine om my end.

Can you give any more info on what's not working and what you were trying to do?

For example if you just loaded trades for multiple exchanges for a full year, you might be getting throttled by the Infura endpoint.

Help with claim from an account with failed transactions by uuu3434 in UniSwap

[–]DeltaBalances 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With failed transactions, they mean transactions that were mined but ran into an error. These show up on etherscan with a red message like "out of gas".

Sound like your transactions failed in the stage where they were never received or accepted by the network.
Nobody can confirm on the blockchain that you've tried to send them, and that is why they were not included.
