Nope, I don't work for anyone. I am no security expert, nor am I a software engineer or coder. I am simply cautious when it comes to money, and thus have done some prior research on this topic, and have also experimented with some of the current solutions available (albeit for bitcoin, not...

If you are doing an external step, it should be a hardware wallet setup like I described. Using the same logic, Grandma is not going to want to perform the extra work of scanning pieces of paper, either. Frankly speaking, if you trust your Android software (rooted or not, custom rom or stock)...

Is there any place these 3-digit codes exist other than exchanges? Like a public registry or something? It seems to me that the representation of any coin is entirely the exchange's prerogative. They simply need to portray each coin in the way they think makes them the most money, without...

What you are proposing DOES expose the private key to the online device, as that is the only way that system could work. Protected memory and destroying of the app is just not good enough, security wise. Any of the existing hardware wallet implementations currently available will be MUCH more...

ThomasV is very respected in the Bitcoin community, and his credibility (and by extension, Electrum's) is not in question. I'm sure many thousands of BTC are stored in Electrum wallets. Encompass, however, is new and I personally would not trust it with thousands of DASH yet, but it is a...

Well Cryptsy shows a recent 60BTC purchase without the price moving an inch. Could have been a pre-pump testing of the waters... Since such a large buy was completely sold into, maybe the would-be pumper got discouraged and moved his elevator elsewhere? Most likely it was a real investor (not...

Intel CPU = cannot be trusted. There are still firmware and BIOS elements that are closed source. It looks to me more of a software gimmick factor than anything else. There are already several trustworthy open source operating systems you can use with a fairly high degree of confidence on...

Regarding cold storage spending: Dash is currently supported by the most recent Encompass release (a modified version of Electrum which supports several alt-coins). Electrum has an option to use an online device in "watch-only" mode, and then when you need to make a spend you create a...

Wow, ask and you shall receive! Thank you so much UdjinM6. Some DASH for your effort...d79513791f79e1b

Each time I open and spend from a multi-masternode wallet, I always use coin control to click the 1000DASH inputs and select "lock unspent" to make sure these inputs do not get touched for the spend. Is there a way to make the lock persist even after the QT is shut-down and reloaded? Thanks

See this post from Huobi on the subject: To All Android App Developers - A Request From Chinese Bitcoin Community I suggested to Cal earlier that he try to make his app available on F-droid. That's pretty much the go-to alternative Android app store for international compatibility, since there...

Very simple webpage that lets you pay with bitcoin and get 20% off all starbucks purchases. Tried it the other day and it worked like a charm. No account signup or anything. Just click 10 dollars and send 8 dollars worth of bitcoin to the address it generates, and it fills a $10 barcode that...

Right now it basically says "of China - Chinese" Just looks weird to me next to all the other language titles, which are languages

Once we get a Chinese translation of dashpay.io, I expect we'll have more chinese visitors to this site, too. The current forum name does not say "Chinese" like the language. It says China with a possessive and no object and looks strange. It currently is: 中國的 Chinese I suggest changing it to...

He gave us some details about it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=421615.msg10693474#msg10693474 Using a completely offline network-less computer to sign transactions is already "better than trezor" security. With Trezor, you're still plugging in a physical device with your private...

I see that. It is convenient to have all of the prices there. What I meant was for your postings here in the Dash forum, it would be appropriate to list the current game price in Dash in addition to $. You might get more Dash sales that way, as many around here tend to think in terms of Dash...

Just a suggestion- You should consider listing the current Dash price at time of posting in addition to the USD price.

Just curious, who is behind Encompass and how reputable are they? Most will agree that ThomasV is trustworthy, and I'm sure many thousands of BTC are managed with Electrum wallets. Encompass being a fairly recent project, I can understand if not everyone is jumping at the chance to trust it...

Just wait till we get offline masternode start support. Those wallets will be sub-zero! :grin:

Well the problem with that is the same MITM who changes things on dashpay.io/downloads could change the fingerprint text on dashpay.io/contacts to match whatever key he replaces the real key with. You could put the video links in contacts section, I guess. But I think it is still necessary to...
