SK GO Who Worked on Cryptocurrency Regulations Found Dead at Home Jung Ki-joon, a South Korean government official, was found dead at his home on Sunday. Jung, 52, was the head of economic policy coordination at the Office for Government Policy Coordination and had taken up the responsibility to coordinate cryptocurrency regulation efforts in November 2017. According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, the cause of death for Jung was unknown, but the police are presuming that his death was caused by a heart attack during his sleep. As per local news, sources close to Jung mentioned that he had been under “heavy stress” ever since he started heading his team to devise cryptocurrency regulations to be followed in the country. The sources did not come public with their identities or mention any particular stance of witnessing any significant issues with Jung’s health; however, the level of stress that could have come with Jung’s responsibilities cannot be denied, as South Korea is one of the world’s largest markets when it comes to cryptocurrencies, and had been functioning without any regulations until the last week of January 2018, when an initial set of regulations was implemented for cryptocurrency trading. Jung had been spearheading the coordination of comments and opinions from various ministers and regulatory authorities along with other stakeholders and was one of the key members of the team that helped shape the regulations that were passed in January to end the anonymity of cryptocurrency transactions in South Korea. The police department is currently investigating the cause of Jung’s death and is reportedly going to have it available in a few days’ time by the coroner’s office.

I still believe that the market is behaving with a lot of rationality, upside down and false decline. Many lies, news, and assessments that have influenced the behavior of the Bitcoin but the bright side is that "Bitcoin sentiment is rapidly turning positive. For one thing, mainstream media headlines covering bitcoin has changed from talks of “meltdown” to “Bitcoin broke through $11,000 for the first time since January” (CNBC). "[1]
The big question now is if bitcoin has already found a bottom and is now set up for a sustained rally. [2]Do you agree that "Bitcoin’s Rally Looks Sustainable"? Do you really think that technical analysis can predict the value of bitcoin?

Lightning Network (LN) and Segwit are separate protocols. Lightning Network utilizes time lock contracts inside of multisig wallets to allow multiple tx's for 1 tx fee. Segwit fixes a tiny bug called "transaction malleability" and unintentionally increased the # of tx's a bitcoin block could load into it as well. [1]
Do you think the Segwit protocol is it enough to ensure cheap transactions in the future?Or do we need more "LN"? we notice how the mempool is completely empty after using the Segwit, So how it will be after apply LN? Do you think the Segwit transactions will be deactivated in the future?

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته كتيرا منا قد يحتاج الي ارسال البيتكوين في زمن محدد وليكن مثلا يوم الثلاثاء الساعة الخامسة مساء ولكن نلاحظ الي انة يجب عليك التواجد امام حاسوبك في ذلك الزمن حتي تتمكن من ارسال البيتكوين الخاصة بك. الن يكون جيدا ان تجعل حاسوبك يقوم بارسال البيتكوين في ذلك الزمن من تلقاء نفسه؟ اليوم ستتعلم كيف تقعل ذلكتعليمة التنفيذ "الكود" sleep 180 && bitcoind sendtoaddress 1ELQLU1WT958sK1HFfiFELWGJxe86t3kYa 0.005 sleep: هي مقدار الثواني التي يجب الانتظار وبعدها سيتم تنفيذ الكود ويتم تحديدها بالرقم الذي يليها 180: يمكن تعديل هذا الرقم باي عدد وهو مقدار الثواني المطلوب انتظارها &&: الرابط و والذي يعني وجوب حدوث الشرطين لتنفيذ الامر bitcoind sendtoaddress: امر الارسال 1ELQLU1WT958sK1HFfiFELWGJxe86t3kYa: عنوان الاستقبال 0.005: عدد البيتكوين المطلوب ارسالها **** في بعض نسخ الويندوز لا تعمل الدالة sleep ويمكن استبدالها بالداله timeout
تذكر : يجب ان يكون الحاسوب متصلا بالانترنت و الكهرباء لتنفيذ هذا الامر.
توجد طرق اخري لارسال البيتكوين ولكن هذه ابسطها وسوف اعدل هذا المنشور لاضافة الطرق الاخري

What do you mean? If you're talking about SegWit P2SH addresses: Those are supported by both Trezor and Ledger. If you're talking about using multi-sig addresses: Electrum has the option to create a 2fa protected multi-sig wallets using a third party service: http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/2fa.htmlOr at least they used to, not sure if that's still the case. Also it's questionable whether you really want a third party service to get involved. I think he's talking about " privacy" because I was wandering what are the best practice to secure hot wallets using P2HS addresses. As far as I understand I can use bitcoin script to add another layer of security to my hot wallet (i.e. add some sort of password or even use multisig, in order to spend incoming funds).
[More than one address in a wallet blockchain.info, greenaddress, ....etc]
Have industry developed some sort of standard to use this feature?
Yes, this is possible.I don’t know if there is a site that gives you several addresses to receive and send your coins but these addresses are managed by hosting what makes the site lose a lot "processing and storage" if given several addresses. for more read this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2931946.msg30114069#msg30114069

Hello folks, i'm having issues with deriving the private keys from the seed provided by Blockchain.info web wallet; Iancoleman tool gave me all the privkeys except for the address that held my bitcoin in time of the hard-forks. I already contacted the the support team of blockchain.info and they gave me a Java Script command to extract the privkeys (Blockchain.MyWallet.wallet._getPrivateKey(account#,"M/0/index#") but the results were the same as Iancoleman tool gave... NO presence of the subject address which is still listed in my transactions history as my bitcoin wallet!!! am'i going to loose all my fork coins? I've tried to contact them again but no answer Please advise if there is any method to get its related private key Thanks in advance You can’t directly access your private key but you can use your 12 words and decrypt them in a wallet that supports extracting your private key. Follow this: 1. Get 12 words seed2. from blockchain wallet to Electrum3. Find private keys from address "Electrum"

Technically, is there any difference between Bech32 " BIP_0173" and P2SH "Pay to script hash/transactions to be sent to a script hash" segwit Transactions? Why do some say that the transactions fee using Bech32 will be cheaper than P2SH?

Alright here is the first question. Since QuestionAuthority motivated us to create this thread, here is the first question guided by him. Question : What is bitcoin’s Mempool? What does it do, what is held there and where is it’s physical location on the network? May the best answer win, remember it is first come first serve.
Memory Pool is a place when Bitcoin transaction being inside After it passes node verification until a miner picks it up in the next block "higher fee go first and lower gets long time [unconfirmed transactions]". it’s a node holding awaiting transaction.

Financial regulations are imposed by governments on businesses and financial institutions in order to manage a nation's financial system. Bitcoin is not governed by any central authority and is free from such influences. [1]On the other hand, bitcoin needs exchange platform So the solution to regulate bitcoin is to regulate the exchanges. If that happens, then the big banks will open their doors, making life easier for exchanges and investors alike. The banks will win from this too, because they can stop customers drifting away to more daring competitors. [2]which scenarios will occur? "More Regulation or More Decentralization" Source #1 #2

What does this mean ? thanks for help This user's email address was changed recently. "Posting Gap From October 02, 2017" Sounds like you bought this account
this address does not count because the gap between March 10, 2015, and January 11, 2017, "all posts before March 10, 2015, ended by "Chris" " Bitcointalk username: Prozcoin Forum rank: Sr. Member Posts count: 318 ETH address: 0x7F04167193198c3cC8a67285F9F44FBe83b6DfCc

I have trouble remembering places "I can’t write my private key on a paper"So that I use technology. 1. 1password: password manager for all my private keys and words. watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcly2-b1W202. Hardware wallets: i use this cryptosteel "Cryptosteel comes with more than 250 stainless steel letter tiles engraved on each side. Codes and passwords are assembled manually from the supplied part-randomized set of tiles. Users are able to store up to 96 characters worth of confidential information in minutes, guaranteeing safety of the data with no need for specialized tools or third-party involvement.[ Source and read full]"

This is my view point and maybe everyone is doing it: 1. Your account username is a key factor: For example when I see a post by [theymos, achow101, nullius/*new account*/,.....etc] automatically expect a valuable post and directly click. 2. Sometimes the title of post is an attraction.
Generally there are a few views in the Digital goods section especially from the new accounts because Bitcoin is irreversible "escrow"

I’m not sure if this is the right section. Mods feel free to move itThe past three years have seen attacks on the Bitcoin more than the rest of the years. [more than 8 attacks] In the past two months, more than one vulnerability discovered. In your opinion, what caused all this? Is the problem in protecting these services "wallets and exchange sites"?Or that the increase in the value of Bitcoin encouraged hacker? Technically: Are the wallets strong enough to protect our bitcoins or we will see more attacks?

I have the curiosity to know who or how many people are clicking the links in my signature? How can I find out? At least find out how many clicks?. If there is an external site or link can make this calculations, don't hesitate to share it

I will talk about two points: 1. we have 65637 merit was sent in the last 30 days and about 892303 number of accounts. With a simple calculation I think we will get on 0.07 merit/account. Really 2. theymos talk about 57 merits source, if you check this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=topsend will find less than 50 member send 100 merits.
I don’t know but a simple calculation will get into "Deadlock zone" [No account will be rankup]. 80% of total accounts get 30% of all the required points.

this is my evaluation: Good Points: 1. Attractive design. 2. No Ads. Bad points: 1. need to update /refresh the page after each search. 2. A unique algorithm for some accounts is not working "Satoshi, Administrator, Staff, DT members,.....etc". 3. Closed source "Can you share your source?", I think the value of the accounts rose after the merit system. 4. Modify the value of the account based on merit points.

One uses of bitcoin is to transfer money, Bitcoin is more efficient and cheaper way to transfer money across borders, and several remittance startups make use of this feature. Bitcoin’s cost and speed advantages, though, are being eroded as traditional channels improve (and the network’s fees continue to increase), and liquidity remains a problem in many countries. Also, a number of large and small retailers accept the cryptocurrency as a form of payment, although reports suggest that demand for this function is not high. when you hear about bitcoin “mining,” you envisage coins being dug out of the ground. Bitcoin mining is similar to gold mining in that the bitcoins exist in the protocol’s design (just as the gold exists underground), but they haven’t been brought out into the light yet (just as the gold hasn’t yet been dug up). The bitcoin protocol stipulates that 21 million bitcoins will exist at some point. What “miners” do is bring them out into the light, a few at a time. They get to do this as a reward for creating blocks of validated transactions and including them in the blockchain.

Crypto investors are seeing red this week. Bitcoin plunged to two-month lows on Thursday, dipping below $9,000 for the first time since November. At the time of writing, Bitcoin had bounced back up to the $9,200 level, down from weekly highs just above $12,000. This week has seen coins across the board in the red — a sign that investors are jumping ship to fiat currencies this time instead of swapping into altcoins as we’ve seen in the recent past. At the time of writing, the total cryptocurrency market cap weighed in at $459 billion, down from January highs around $830 billion. It’s a contraction to be sure, but not a low for the last 30 days (that low came on January 18). Cryptocurrency die-hards expecting the price to bounce back, even partially, will see these tanking numbers as the perfect entry point for getting in low and maximizing gains. Late speculators who got in during the mass crypto hysteria of the holiday season aren’t likely to have such steady hands, a factor that’s likely contributing to the slide.

In the last couple of weeks we could see the problems on world stock exchanges, the fall of Dow Jones etc. Analysts say this will continue in the future too. Although Bitcoin isn't tied to that market directly do you see any influence of this situation on Bitcoin price? What is your opinion?
In fact, the news has a greater impact on the Bitcoin.world stock problems have indirect effect "When prices fall, gold and yuan /*cryptocurrency*/ will be a safe haven for investors". If you notice, the Bitcoin drops quickly if bad news comes out, especially from East Asian countries "eg. China ban, SK ban, ..etc". The digital currency market has also ballooned significantly over the past year "Bumping prices"which leds into strong corrections. Also, the turnout of people on the low-value alts "eg. Ripple" gave Bitcoin a fake value "because they need bitcoin to get alt & tokens". Gather all these factors led you to know why the bitcoin has fallen?
