Sorry, dude. Just hope it wasn’t too much. Once it’s confirmed, you can’t get it back unless you talk to the thief, which is unlikely.

I feel bad for him, but he’s been in crypto for over eight years. He should know how to keep his wallet secure. He used a hardware wallet, but I’m not familiar with Ellipal’s security. I really want to know how the hack…

Lucky for me, no clear rules on Bitcoin in my country. But if it gets regulated, I wouldn't mind paying taxes.

One input, one output? Doesn’t seem to come from stake.us. If it confirms, Cash App should accept it.

Yeah, most of the time, only the nodes your wallet connects to could know your IP and link it. Once a transaction is out there, they can't trace it back to you. Just share your goal with us to help you better. If…

From what you've shown, it seems your mobile wallet has taproot addresses (tb1p) and the desktop one has native segwit (tb1q). When restoring, you need to select the same wallet type to avoid ending up with a different…

It’s not complex; listen. If you sent 0.5 BTC and are supposed to get 0.5 back, then if you control that wallet you can use CPFP.

^^ Exactly, but OP might be using bitcoin core which doesn’t support seed phrases. When he says ‘legacy wallet,’ I think he means the older wallet types from before HD wallets became a thing. Back then, each time you…

Glad the TX went through! If the broker keeps using low fees, find a different one next time. Better to have your funds in a non-custodial wallet where you can control transaction fees.

What do you mean by old and new segwit? No need to wait that long. Your transaction will either confirm or be dropped before a year is up. There are ways to speed it up, but with such a small amount, is it really worth…

OP, you’re kinda confusing. Do you have the 18 words but forgot the password? Or did you lose the 18 words? Since it’s a wallet from 2013, it can’t be HD. Those 18 words are likely for password recovery, not a seed.

What the last dude said is spot on. Check these addresses: 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSend8MUo1T and 1CounterpartyXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXUWLpVr. They weren't made from private keys but are valid with multiple transactions. There…

Thanks for all the info. This is new to me. @NotATether, I want to use this thread to ask about my syncing issue. Bitcoin Core slows down crazy at 15% while the Bitcoind syncs fine. Not sure what’s up since my RAM and…

Right? You don't need anyone else to track your Bitcoin. Plus, it’s a boost to your privacy, since you’re not giving anyone else a peek.

If the seed you have is your actual wallet seed and not just a recovery phrase for a password, then yes, you can import it into Electrum or any reliable wallet. You’ll have full control and won’t have to deal with their…

Nope, you can’t really tell which wallet made that address. It might’ve been created manually too. Only thing that matters is having the private key.
