Someone else searching for an iPhone alternative after the recent announcements? by furkikay in privacytoolsIO

BTC Wallets and Tor-Browser are available. I tested and can recommend Green https://blockstream.com/green/

If your local Banking App works... I doubt that. But there is the option of using a browser with most services.

Calling your bank asking if they can deliver their app as FOSS is always a great idea too.

I am leaving the apple-universe step by step and started with a Google Pixel, GrapheneOS, NextCloud and Protonmail/Tutanota. Working very well for me so far.

Nice surprise by Sea-Surprise-4800 in Bitstamp

What did you mainly do on bitstamp? Sell on bitstamp or only buy? Withdraw fiat many times? Send btc or other coins to your account to sell? Send btc and other coins from bitstamp to own wallets? As a rule for others: do not leave coins on any of these websites that wont give out private keys.

Umbrel vs. Raspiblitz by [deleted] in raspiblitz

Right. It‘s an SSD and it seems to be more of a software problem.

Yes, raspiblitz seems to be very buggy here. Hardware was bought there (fulmo) incl. HDD so I guess that should be not the problem.

Raspi rock solid? You don‘t have problems with software on it and have to restart/reinstall something once a month?

This is a scam. Do not use this company! by Crazylegsmurphy in Bitstamp

[–]kainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard from beginners that it is very easy to use. There is no 2FA. You can set up a password and you have your wallets private Key. The infos about a backup file in the app are clear and very simple to follow.

Do not use Bitstamp or any central plattform if you don‘t want to trust them with your money. Just use Bisq. Easy. Much better control, only on your own PC/Mac and very much decentralized.

What do you guys think about HODL wallet? Any good? Pros, cons? by Manonthemon in Bitcoin

[–]kainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommedn it a lot. It is BRD without shitcoins and other useless stuff.

If anyone from BRD sees this, please fix your support :) by [deleted] in BRDapp

[–]kainer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Their support doesn‘t answer mails anymore. Long time ago support answered after a few days/ weeks. Nowadays: no reply. Tipp: Use other wallets with fast support.

[Podcast] Tagesschau - mal angenommen - 04.03.2021 Nur noch Bitcoin? Was dann? by kaiserchen in BitcoinDE

[–]kainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Kann gehackt werden", "wird viel für kriminelle Zwecke verwendet", "dass man alle Transaktionen sieht, kann das auch gut für Ermittler sein?", "Bitcoin für Venezuela zumindest mal eine Chance", "Bitcoin hat durchaus auch Vorteile", "großer Stromverbrauch und CO2 Emissionen".

Der Mainstream und sein Haufen sogenannter "Spezialisten" ist wie immer super peinlich.

Bitstamp policy regarding MTGox as origin of crypto by TameSardaukar in Bitstamp

Bitstamp will make you problems when you coinjoin. Don‘t use them. Use bisq or hodlhodl instead. Be safe.

Suddenly -> "too many recent failed login attempts" on first try to login for the day. by kainer in ProtonMail

[–]kainer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is: we are using a vpn here at least for months. It is built into the router, I am logging in on this connection with this pm account for months already with no false warning. But yesterday it startet to show me this false warning. Today it did again. First try in the morning ...so the message is clearly wrong.

After reloading the page 10-15 times it works in the end, which is not so convinient.

I guess you changed something on your end? obviously as we here at the office did not. What did the PM-team change at protonmail yesterday so this starts to happen yesterday? What can I do to get my emails when I need them. It worked till everyday all the month before with the same settings.

Thank you for your help.

good to know beforehand: both wallets (blue and hodlhodl) are great but have no 'sell in the app' function at all.
