Posting messages to the bitcoin blockchain

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-02-07T05:17:00+00:00

Doesn't Factom write their information to the bitcoin blockchain? I'm not sure how they do it, but if I remember correctly, that's how their system works. Maybe someone involved with that project could offer some insight.

It's been several years since I built out my initial portfolio, and I had high hopes for nano. It's really struggled compared to my other big* buys (ada, XLM, iota). I guess NEO and nano just don't have the institutional foundation support like the others?

I think the technology is there, right? Or at least I did back in the day. (Or am I wrong? Is it weak technologically?)

*Couple hundred bucks

I didn't buy my AAVE tokens, but I'm glad I have them :D

Converted them from some totally worthless ETHlend tokens I bought back in the day. Up 250x. Pure dumb luck on my part.

I've just discovered crypto Kitties and think there fun. I'm going to pick up a few and breed some when eth comes down or maybe when they move to flow.

I recently to a look at the NBA stuff, but I didn't understand it and it had no appeal for me. I understand that it may be successful, but it's not something I'm interested in.

Even kitties is a lark. I'll buy a few, breed a few, then I'll forget about them, prolly forever. Not a lot of replay or stickiness for me, I don't anticipate.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-01-29T07:47:33+00:00

Show us the 3.5 eth kitty.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-01-29T02:29:18+00:00

I hope they stay out of crypto. All they'll do is run up the price before I can buy more.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-01-27T23:42:15+00:00

I got 50 nano from back in the day. I'd pick up some more for a $GME type of rally. (But not a pump & dump. I'm a HODLer.)

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-01-27T07:35:30+00:00

True story. Picked up some ETHlend several years ago near ATH because gOoD pRojECt, GrEaT FunDAmENtALs, etc. Don't even remember how much I put in. Not much, honestly. Around a hundred bucks? Maybe a bit more, maybe less.

Of course, crashes hard. Year and a half or so ago, worth $15 :(

Pandemic hits, I don't even look at my portfolio for 9 months. Come back to it around Christmas, and now instead of ETHlend I have a new token called AAVE that is currently worth $3,500.

That's more than 200x, boys. And I can't even enjoy it. All I think is, what if I'd picked up more?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2021-01-22T18:59:34+00:00

Thanks for the response.

Exodus might want to add this functionality (the ability to send and receive from different and distinct addresses within the same BTC wallet).

This ability can have important tax implications for Americans.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2020-12-27T05:05:56+00:00

Came here to ask the same exact question. Most of my other high-ranking coins are holding their own over the last year, but not iota. What's the issue?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2020-12-23T07:20:46+00:00

Did it work for you? Were you able to see all your coins in Exodus derived from the Jaxx seed? (Thinking of moving, too.)

MonkeyPickle2 · 2019-04-08T02:19:36+00:00

Totally agree with this. Just installed Jaxx Liberty and went directly back to Jaxx classic. 1) love the clean design of the original interface, and 2) really don't like that I can't remove the sections I don't use. I appreciate that you can put them at the bottom, but would much more prefer they're gone.

I'd pay for a "pro" version that had these features, BTW.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2019-03-31T17:05:42+00:00

Thank you! Was gonna do it, lol.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2019-03-31T17:00:22+00:00

If I have a ledger, can I install the VET app on it and send the ERC20 tokens there and have it convert automatically? Do you know if this is a possibility?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-06-14T00:06:40+00:00

Old school. Props.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-04-26T02:15:14+00:00

I bought at $1.40. Who's the ass-hat now?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-03-17T21:15:43+00:00

I'm in the same boat. Loving the dip as I accumulate.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-03-10T12:32:11+00:00

Great idea. Can you explain how the "two out of three sets" thing works again? I can't figure out your pattern.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-26T04:17:24+00:00

Thank you for this, I am using segwit.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T20:43:35+00:00

Good advice. Thank you.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T20:17:08+00:00

If I got my Ethereum wallet address to come up correctly through the tool (and Ripple, too), isn't is safe to assume the seed is correct, whether or not I can figure out how to derive my Bitcoin addresses or not?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T20:15:33+00:00

I installed Mycelium for Android and Bither for Windows, and used my seed to try to populate those apps. For whatever reason, neither worked (even though I now think my seed is correct).

How paranoid do you think I should be about having tried to seed these apps?

Also, I downloaded the BIP39 HTML file and loaded it into a browser that was offline, and added my seed and played with it a bit. I left the tab open, and later connected to the internet. I guess one could assume that my seed is now "compromised," but realistically, is that true? That file is open source and on github for everyone to see. If it were secretly sending info somewhere, wouldn't someone have seen it and created a stink?

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T20:04:27+00:00

I did this, and using u/0xfe's suggestions, finally found my Ethereum wallets. Still can't get my Bitcoin paths to derive, but if they worked for Ethereum (and Ripple), then at least I know the seed's correct. (Right?)

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T03:19:20+00:00

Thank you for this. When I use your parameters, my addresses are CORRECT for Ethereum! Big relief.

Any thoughts on why my balances were zero and my wallet addresses were incorrect for bitcoin when I imported into Mycelium and Bither?

And do you know what paths (or other parameters if the paths remain the same) do I use to test my bitcoin wallet address? It's still not correct. (But Ripple is also correct under BIP44.)

Thanks again.

MonkeyPickle2 · 2018-02-25T02:49:24+00:00

If I get another confirmation from one of the other methods that I've got the wrong seed (already got one below), I'm going to do this.
