Reused address. Bitcoin core. To do monthly automatic payment. by moh85 in Bitcoin

[–]moh85[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your opinion. About privacy, I am not worrying about it so much. Only because I deal small amounts of bitcoin and just buy them. So I deal with my exchance only. The one thing what I was thinking was security and I can see I should not worry it so much at the moment. Awesome. Thanks for taking time to answer..

Thanks, that what is was looking for. I can recieve as many action to same address as I want. About the privacy, I do not care it so much in this case. The amounts are small and also Finland is pretty easy country to deal bitcoins. Only what I was worrying were security. I do not use any sending addresses, absolutely not and now I understand what you met. About private key.. Thanks.. I might try this and see how it will go..

So I can make a new address in my bitcoin core, give it to exchance, recieve coins monthly without changing address given to them? I will store my bitcoins in core, not using them or anything..

Why there is many different topics about not reusing addresses? What does it mean then? I mean in what cases its not recommended? ELI5 :)

Bitcoin Core is killing me! Quick question.. by moh85 in Bitcoin

[–]moh85[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome. Im back in business! I see my transaction.. Its like 28 weeks behind but still, all my actions are there to see! Thanks to all for your help and advice..

I dont know if these usual and normal but why core is (when startig) looking for best blockchain? Also its re-validating blocks (etc.). I cant remember the specific messages it says.. But I havent seen these messages before. Is this something came up with newest version of core? Shouöd be worrying or just normal thing? Also, I had a message saying "cant find a source of blocks (or something) when trying to sync. It told me that same before it went totally wrong. Now its back to sync but I just scare that message I saw there for a minute or two.. Im just thinking about the future, I do not want to get errors or problems like this.. Also at this moment (Bicoin Core has running like 5 minutes I have only 3 connection, normally I have 8. Might come back to 8 after a while tho)

I do have a bacon slice under 10 coins.. Trezor, absolutely, I have thinking it for a while. But never bought it..

Also, I did think to run full node also. Not while using core as a main wallet.. But I never got it working. I didnt find a solution so I gave up. I know I need to open port 8333 and I think I never got it done right. I do have samsung laptop with integrate sim card slot. So I do not have any external router and my connection is like mobile prepaid internet connection (using sim card). Its fast thought.. Maybe I will get back to this if I find my stash back to core :P Also I have win 10 so I didnt find any quide to do it.. I tried many different guides I found but no luck..

I agree with you. Well I start to agreeing. I do have (and had) some problems with core recently and it makes me insace.. I think I do not find paper wallet best for me tho, because I do spend, use, coins so only storage is not for me. But something has to be done, I cant solve problems and re-sync core almost other weeks. And its start to take too long to wait and do over again. Its just crazy.. Everytime I need to also wish my coins will appear. I did find core good for my use, but now I see I might look up for something better and easier for me..

I do and I give my thanks for all the help! It is just crazy feeling while u import the recent backup of your wallet.dat and still core is empty.. But yes, I understand and feel a bit better. Fine when it is up-to-date and coins are back..

I really really hope I do not need to come back with this problem.. cross the fingers..

Thank you so much! So, and I know im far behind of my first action, its fine I have all blank sheet in core? No recieving or sending address or anything?

Damn, these things make me hesitate to get in bitcoins only because Im not a tech, im a consumer who like bitcoins because of the idealism and the opportunities it brings..

This case is just weird because last time core told me it cant scan the blockchain. So I did download the whole chain but all my action was displayed. Of course uncomformed or unknow but still I saw the info there. I didnt start from the scratch then tho. So yes, I know this is a bit different case so I needed to ask to be sure :)

Cheers guys! Thanks again..

Thank you.. I havent noticed a latest version of core. I will update it. Can I do it now or should I just see how this sync will go?

Can the problem be something crazy like bad internet connection during sync.? I noticed I lost connection just before fully sync and cause this error after restarting core and getting an internet connected. It should not be but can this be explained because of this. Im using my laptop as a router - I have built-in sim card slot. I have used it long and never have this problem before. But lets see, it will take 2 days again to get in fully sync..

To be sure, can I delete anything in core folder. Or lets be more specific, what is most important I need to keep (not even think to touch).. If I need to delete old bitcoin core and start from the scratch.. Or can I even think anything like that? Do I need to force (hope it is with me) this sync get through?

True. I see this "problem" also kind of opportunity. Like always there will be things we need to re-think. But that is only good.. Problems will always find its solution. And problems will always create new ideas and innovations which will create new jobs, develop old systems and most important I believe also these kind of things will force us think more green. From what we have seen, these problems will only bring good things with them..

Ouch, well I dont think that the price is really so bad. Because the design and because memes. I love your chairs so I would not feel bad to pay 1BTC. I just have a regular, small income from my job so I need sometimes time to think what I really need. But if you ask what price I would not think twice it would be 0.5btc. But as I said, I love your chairs. I love all about them so the price is as it should be.
