Title: It is true that old btctalk accounts are auto locked? Post by: pat25 on June 03, 2018, 08:29:58 PM Hello, I have heard that old bitcointalk accounts from 2013-2014 are automatically locked to prevent hacking these accounts.
It is true? Because I see many people here have locked accounts and they canīt access to their accounts for a long time. How long does it take to unlock the account approximately? Title: Re: It is true that old btctalk accounts are auto locked? Post by: LeGaulois on June 03, 2018, 08:34:35 PM Only the inactive accounts (before 2015 I think). To recover their account they need to follow the requirement. To know it, they just need to read the sticky thread on this board.
How long it takes is up to the Admins (and/or the mods if they can unlock it) Title: Re: It is true that old btctalk accounts are auto locked?

So is "Satoshi's (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3)" account locked too???

Post by: shahzadafzal on June 03, 2018, 10:32:08 PM I have heard that Satoshi Nakamoto is probably dead because Satoshi was Hal Finney >:( but who knows ;) I feel so sad when people tag Hal Finney as Satoshi You know I have read this so many times people still think Hal Finney was Satoshi. But trust me I don't think some one on a death bed will lie. He he was diagnosed of of ALS in 2009, he knew he is going to die soon. He said this in his post too But my life expectancy is limited So if he was Satoshi there was no pointing in hiding it anymore, so I really don't think he was Satoshi.

Title: Re: It is true that old btctalk accounts are auto locked? Post by: Theb on June 04, 2018, 06:19:00 PM I don't think that this is true as because so far I haven't seen any announcement or even a post coming from theymos about locking of accounts. Also proving their inactive accounts will be hard especially when the "Stake your Bitcoin address here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0)" thread was created in 2015, if they became inactive and has not posted any bitcoin address in that thread then they would have a hard time proving that they own that account.

Very interesting point of view, then it is obviously that the accounts are not locked and Satoshi can login again without any problem ;D.Title: Re: It is true that old btctalk accounts are auto locked? Post by: D3F4L7 RAT on June 05, 2018, 10:11:11 AM It was pretty clear that he and satoshi was two different persons. They exchanged emails with each others. A person diagnosed with ALS is not going to play hide and sick. PS: There is someone who logged into Hal's account on March 30, 2017 (http://prntscr.com/jqg0xi)? Who it could be?
