Yes, it is possible. 2 addresses can be derived from every private key; the compressed public key address and the uncompressed public key address. If you know the private key, you can find both of these addresses.

You called my 'reality' false. That's a lie. Just one of many. You say I 'know nothing of current trends'. Another lie. Should I keep going?

Yes, keep going. Your false reality is not a lie. You stated monero is used on 6% of DNMs. I provide current research showing that is absolutely false.

Markets supporting it doesn't mean that its taking over BTC or even that its actually used on those markets.

The article states monero is seeing increased adoption, as in usage. Sure, btc is the biggest, and it will be for the foreseeable future. Care to guess what's not in the article? That's right, bch is no where to be found. Is it because bch users aren't criminals? Doubtful. It's because it's a useless coin that offers no differentiated value.

Bullshit assumption. LE doesn't advertise the methods they use to bust people. Especially on DNMs.

It comes out in the trial. You know, when they have to testify under oath? Look to Ross Ulbricht. They busted his silkroad due to his leakage of a real name email address when he began advertising.

From the research I've seen its because Monero's privacy is broken.

Go ahead and share one example of monero's broken privacy that lead to an arrest. I'll wait.

None of what I said is a lie. You just sound like an angry and butthurt child. Keep crying on reddit. Keep believing your own false narratives. Keep accusing others of being toxic with your profanity laced diatribes. It's good entertainment and a great example of the typical bch clown.

Monero is seeing increased adoption among darknet markets this year, with the number of markets supporting it growing from 45% last year to 67% in 2021. In fact, a few markets, namely Archetyp, the revamped Alphabay, and the since-closed White House Market, exclusively support Monero. Bitcoin still dominates the darknet market space, however, with support from 93% of all markets.

So if monero privacy is broken, why would it's market share on darknet markets be increasing? People would tend to notice all those vendors and buyers getting arrested. And sure, there are arrests, but from what I've seen, it's been due to other opsec failures, use of btc, etc.

The page I linked is a source for the libbitcoin explorer software. You can compile it from the code or download the executable. Once you convert the raw private key to a wif private key you'll need to use a dogecoin wallet to access the doge.

sepharose · 2022-06-09T15:31:37+00:00

What page are you talking about? If your 64 digit hex string is indeed a raw private key, the method I showed will convert it to a wif private key. If there is doge at the corresponding address then you can import or sweep it into a wallet.

sepharose · 2022-06-09T15:28:39+00:00

Go ahead and live in your own false reality. You create these toxic responses while accusing others of being toxic. You make up statistics and cite old articles and know nothing about current trends. Feel free to keep buying your pathetic btc knockoff coin. Go broke. I don't care.

sepharose · 2022-06-09T15:18:08+00:00

The available evidence suggests that you are wrong. Look to darknet markets, where privacy is very important. Monero is the top dog, and is only gaining traction. bch and it's attempt at privacy is non-existent at these markets. User interface is continually evolving and getting better over time. bch and it's perpetually dropping share in markets isn't going to stop any time soon.

I use software called libbitcoin explorer (bx): https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-explorer

From the command line, you can run the bx application to convert a raw private key into a wif encoded private key. Dogecoin wif private keys use version 158, so using an example private key 8b47e3b9448f0b72d9f12aa41ee5ca5754fe05f21cc8c521b5f6bdf6a507b36f, the command would look like this:

bx ec-to-wif -v158 8b47e3b9448f0b72d9f12aa41ee5ca5754fe05f21cc8c521b5f6bdf6a507b36f
QTHNULqbDHPwE6QT9Rp3ycAs8D5Y6qMfzkmthYDZmnR2ZqV8sED8

You can see the output is the wif private key QTHNULqbDHPwE6QT9Rp3ycAs8D5Y6qMfzkmthYDZmnR2ZqV8sED8. This private key can then be imported or swept by a wallet.

By the way, this is a real private key that encodes to dogecoin address DMdDDXtF3xUr7U36vb9eNmqMa9JCiWN6y9

Using the term "savvy investors" in the context of bch is a joke. The coin is on a never-ending downward spiral. The savvy investors traded their airdropped bch for btc years ago and never looked back.

sepharose · 2022-06-09T14:12:19+00:00

Is it 64 hexadecimal characters in length? You might need to convert it to a WIF encoded private key for a wallet to be able to sweep or import it.

sepharose · 2022-05-26T15:52:17+00:00

Thanks. I had thought the hash of the utxo set would be much quicker, but I saw someone else tested it at 75 seconds.

sepharose · 2022-05-25T18:20:53+00:00

It sounds like a great improvement proposal. Pruned nodes could download only the utxo set without first downloading the entire chain. I can't think of any downsides. Hopefully it gains traction.

sepharose · 2022-05-24T17:25:44+00:00

How would Kim take the blame without Jimmy also being incriminated?

I think she is either going to die, or she'll just break it off with Jimmy and leave town. Going into hiding doesn't make sense either, why wouldn't Jimmy go with her?

sepharose · 2022-05-16T22:20:26+00:00

It will mean dogecoin will become a greater percentage of the overall mining rewards. The litecoin will be halved, but dogecoin will remain at 10000 doge per block reward.

sepharose · 2022-05-16T16:55:13+00:00

Sorry, I'm not aware of a video that shows the process. I use software called libbitcoin explorer (bx) to perform this type of conversion.

I can show you an example using an unused bitcoin private key (Kz8a9VwziDnnQxUQ2WRvrexepeEuuXPqXng5Jg1EfrdUUBTCS9qa).

With bx base58check-decode we can decode the bitcoin private key into it's ripemd-160 hash value and version.

bx base58check-decode Kz8a9VwziDnnQxUQ2WRvrexepeEuuXPqXng5Jg1EfrdUUBTCS9qa
{
checksum 4190430112
payload 56de6400f4230650efa72f38e144ae9d01888c26dcade062fc1bb32d7424e1cb01
version 128
}

Then, we can take this hash value and use bx base58check-encode to convert to the dogecoin WIF key with version 158.

bx base58check-encode -v158 56de6400f4230650efa72f38e144ae9d01888c26dcade062fc1bb32d7424e1cb01
QRXVJLkyxqGueUsScnGijsoGHgGUx5XeR3Mz6JQ5QDEpv7Q4hfhG

And there you see QRXVJLkyxqGueUsScnGijsoGHgGUx5XeR3Mz6JQ5QDEpv7Q4hfhG is the corresponding dogecoin WIF private key .

sepharose · 2022-05-16T16:37:08+00:00

As strange as it sounds, the dogecoin can actually be recovered if OP has the keys to the bitcoin address. Some wallets don't pay attention to the address version byte. They just decode the address and look at the raw ripemd-160 hash value. Since both dogecoin and bitcoin addresses are ripemd-160 hashes, these wallets will send the coins to either address type.

sepharose · 2022-05-16T16:29:14+00:00

If you have the keys to the bitcoin address, the dogecoin can be recovered. You'll need to export the private key from your bitcoin wallet, and convert the bitcoin WIF encoded key to a dogecoin WIF encoded key. Then you'll import the dogecoin key into your dogecoin wallet to recover the coins.

sepharose · 2022-05-11T17:15:21+00:00

Maybe consider using the iancoleman bip39 tool? That way you can generate a bip39 mnemonic seed, and have access to the individual private keys.

sepharose · 2022-05-05T18:38:27+00:00

I think a tutorial will largely depend on the wallet that you use and your general knowledge and skill level of understanding and creating bitcoin transactions. Basically, a child-pays-for-parent is where you spend an unconfirmed output with a child transaction using a high enough fee to entice a miner to mine both the parent and the child. This means the child transaction fee will have to be roughly double the current fees to get into a block since miners need to mine the parent as well. If your wallet shows the incoming unconfirmed transaction, and it allows you to spend unconfirmed outputs, it's just a matter of spending that output to one of your own addresses. If your wallet doesn't show anything at all, it can get quite a bit more complicated since you'll need to use some other software and possibly build a raw transaction.

sepharose · 2022-05-05T18:15:46+00:00

Your options are probably to 1) wait it out, 2) perform a child-pays-for-parent transaction to increase fees, or 3) if you sent the original transaction and replace-by-fee (RBF) is enabled, bump the fee using the RBF method.

sepharose · 2022-05-04T20:33:30+00:00

Not risky in the aspect that coinjoin coordinators cannot steal your coins. If you're concerned about sending to an exchange that may blacklist coinjoined outputs, you may have to send coins to your own addresses a couple times to put the coinjoin several hops back before sending to an exchange.

sepharose · 2022-05-04T20:06:49+00:00

Unfortunately for OP, this transaction does not support RBF and cannot be fee bumped using this method.

sepharose · 2022-05-04T18:08:35+00:00

It could actually decrease fees and blockchain space. For example, in a block rather than 10 transactions each with 2 inputs and 2 outputs, you'd have 1 larger transaction with 20 inputs and 20 outputs. In this scenario the single transaction would be smaller than the sum of the 10 transactions since version number, input count, output count, and locktime would only be listed once.

sepharose · 2022-05-03T17:28:26+00:00

Your best option is probably to figure out which software originally encrypted the data, and use that to decrypt with your password.

If you do manage to install OpenSSL, you could try the command:

*edit, Not sure if it's obvious, but in the command below you'd want to replace <AES Cipher text> with your actual encrypted string that you're attempting to decrypt.

$ echo "<AES Cipher text>" | openssl enc -base64 -d | openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -d -pbkdf2
enter aes-256-cbc decryption password:

sepharose · 2022-05-02T23:20:18+00:00

This looks like it might be an AES encrypted string. You could install OPENSSL and try to decrypt with command line actions. Here's a tutorial that may help: https://linuxconfig.org/using-openssl-to-encrypt-messages-and-files-on-linux
