There's no such inspired by standard gold bars or something else, it's purely by math. Don't make something that can be proven by math into assumption or personal opinion, that's misleading.

Owning one Bitcoin isn't necessary means you own 12.4 kg gold bar, Bitcoin is an intangible asset.


https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/what-if-money-printed-went-straight-to-bitcoin

   Calculate the number of blocks per four year cycle:

    6 blocks per hour
    * 24 hours per day
    * 365 days per year
    * 4 years per cycle
    = 210,240
    ~= 210,000

    Sum all the block reward sizes:

    50 + 25 + 12.5 + 6.25 + 3.125 + … = 100

    Multiply the two:

    210,000 * 100 = 21 million.
You shared some great resources to explain Bitcoin total supply that is 21 million bitcoins or more exactly, it is 20999999.9769 bitcoins [1].
It is coded by Satoshi Nakamoto with only 5 lines of code. [2]

The blog post from Jameson Lopp explains it in more details.

Starting this new thread, for our users. Any Question, will be replied and any issue will be solved asap!

We are happy to be with your Community!
It's good that Crashino team are active again in Bitcointalk but I have my suggestion for the team.

The casino has its previous announcement thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5387284.280

Now you started this new announcement thread so to avoid confusion, your team should leave a last post in that previous announcement thread about the migration to this new thread.

Then lock that old announcement thread.

Your local currency has very bad decrease of its purchasing power and exchange rate against US dollar.

Its exchange rate against USD last 5 years shows a loss of 76%.
https://www.google.com/finance/quote/NGN-USD?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiLxPWbq8qEAxVsiK8BHdqnBLgQmY0JegQIDhAv&window=5Y

Either you invest in Bitcoin, get profit from Bitcoin and you need cash, my advice is as follows.

Take profit part of it to your local currency Naira.
Reserve the rest in Bitcoin to enjoy the bull run before taking profit more.
You should take part of your profit in US. dollar because its is strong fiat currency, not like Naira.
If you take profit all to Naira, you will lose like the chart shows.

If you have private keys, you own your coins, no need like ASAP. If you are too much hurry and chase for ASAP help, you might receive offers to help from scammers who will steal your bitcoins.

One more reason to not need ASAP help, Bitcoin will continue to rise and you can sell your bitcoins months later at higher price than now.

I recently restored a batch of my old wallets due to breach of security my wallet/ addresses displays coins inside my wallet but as soon as I click my address to enter my wallet poof the balance disappears.
I have never faced with this issue.

You can copy and paste your Bitcoin (public address) on Bitcoin block explorers to check its balance.

If you see balance is 0, that means that wallet was drained out and you already lost your bitcoins. If the balance is positive, you can spend time to recover it.

128  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 21 million of standard gold bars in the world. on: February 24, 2024, 02:44:50 AM
One of my personal assumptions is that Satoshi was orientating himself on gold. If you calculate how many standard bars could be forged from the total amount of gold on earth, you come up with around 20 - 23 million standard bars, depending on the source of information.
We never know why Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin with 21 million as its total supply cap.

There are some theories but at the end we are not Satoshi Nakamoto to know about his / their actual reasons.

How is the 21 million Bitcoin cap defined and enforced?
Why is Bitcoin supply limit sets to 21 milions?
Can Bitcoin's hard cap of 21 millions be changed?

Even Trump create some mess on his term but there's a lot of Americans realize that he's contribution and performance is more better than their current president and Biden didn't even manage to get their expectation since they don't like what they are seeing on his term.
In 2020 Election, Joe Biden luckily got support from Covid-19 to beat Donald Trump. Before the pandemic, no signals, no surveys show that Trump will lose it but his policies during Covid-19 changed the President Election advantage towards Biden. Even so, Biden did not beat Trump convincingly.

Now, after 4 years, with his presidency, he created more disappointment than satisfactory to USA. citizens. In addition, his age and bad memory are his big disadvantages for 2024 President Election.

Quote
So expect to get a lot of discussion about pointing out that Trump will win against bidden since if we look at the odds Trump is most likely gonna win this upcoming presidential election so I'm sure that there are so many people will go bet on his presidential run since there are lot of people would think about they might get easy win if they bet on which people talk about that high chance to take the seat.
If Biden is younger a little bit, at the same age as Trump, and does not have issues with his memory, his chance might be higher. But in reality, he has those problems that will make him more difficult to beat Trump and defend his President position.

I believe Trump will be elected again and has another four years as the USA. President. The world will become more chaos in next four years with unpredictable decisions from Trump.

An increase in the price of Bitcoin is generally known as a bull market and a decrease in the price of Bitcoin is known as a bear market.
A bull and bear market needs a long time to be a trend. Uptrend and downtrend then we will have a bull or bear market. If the market has only price increase or decrease a few days, it is not a bull or bear market, not enough to conclude about the market. It can be a correction in a bull market so if we call it as a bear market, it's wrong. Oppositely, it can be a dead cat bounce in a bear market, not a bull market because price bounce.

Quote
The Bitcoin market is constantly going up, so we can call this market a bull market. I can see that the market is constantly rising for some time. Now the market position is fifty two thousand dollars. The market has touched its highest price since last few years and the market is still positive. If the market continues to grow the way it has in the last few days, it won't take long to cross its all-time highs.
Obviously now we are in a bull market before a Bitcoin halving. It will soar up a lot when Bitcoin breaks the $69,000 cap and makes its new all time high. Many people who are waiting for a bull run, will take that signal to step in. Massive new capital flow will be in when Bitcoin breaks that strong resistance.
131  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ Shuffle.com | The next generation of crypto casinos | Sports, Casino + token on: February 07, 2024, 04:46:08 PM
That is true, and so far they have been very engaging to the community when it comes to huge announcements. You can see it on Twitter and TG too. Things are better delayed than rushed, especially if the release is already robust enough to withstand possible exploits by bad actors out there. Shuffle can carry out a good release, and delays may not be what people expect but perhaps it's for the better.
Carefulness will help to build up good plan and I have feeling that Shuffle team are intentionally doing this for their token launch as well as promotion for their users. They don't have to hurry to launch the token and the promotion if everything have yet been ready for an important launch. When they are ready, they will ping us with big news and having a token is an advantage for their business but only if they already tested it well and debug it carefully.

As it's erc20 token it will get listed to uniswap, and because of it, it hopefully catches some whale eyes. And if that happens, i wouldn't be worried on CEXes. They will add it purely because of the volume.
It is how some successful memecoins did like Shiba Inu, PEPE and BONK.

Quote
I have high hopes for tokenomics, but as they are still unclear i will keep my feet on the ground and have healthy skeptism. Token itself might as well be generic erc20 token, so it doesn't need complex smart contracts. Least i hope it is, because less is more if tokenomics have been build correctly and % of profits earmarked for buyback is high enough.
Tokenomics is very important to help the token get money from investors. Because bad tokenomics will give a token very grey future and in contrast, a good designed tokenomics will help it avoid inflationary, price loss consequently and investors will feel less risk and have more interested in investment.
132  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Updates from the COPA v Craig Wright trial on: February 06, 2024, 11:36:57 AM
Faketoshi will not give up as long as he lives because he has convinced himself that what he claims is the truth. Even in the event that the court, based on the evidence, undoubtedly decides that he is lying, I have no doubt that Faketoshi and his sponsors will find another country and some new court in front of which they will again try to present their lies.

Considering his age, he still has a relatively long time ahead of him, unless something bad happens to him, and considering that he has allegedly already tried to kill himself, maybe he will try again - although it is probably another in a series of lies, because cowards like him they don't have the courage for such a thing.

I would recommend him to move to Colombia, because there they recognize him as Satoshi Nakamoto, but everything can be bought there, including a false identity.


I can not understand why the Faketoshi man needs to go seriously like this. If he has Bitcoins from which he claimed Bitcoin Cash then Bitcoin SV, he can simply enjoy his life.

Going to court and facing with many controversial discussions and even negative responses from community, I don't see it will make his life more comfortable and better in anyway.

Does he want to get a stroke and similar by doing such non-sense but stressful efforts?
I wish him best health but possibly with stress, anything with health can happen.

Years ago, I read an analytical article on how the Faketoshi lied with his laptop. Shame!

It might not be following the exact birthday of Shuffle, but releasing a token is a ton of hard work, especially how one single screw up can burn not only them but other people who have invested on it as well. From the looks of it, they seem to be following through with their plans, and it's just not being shared with us unless everything is ironed out. Give it a week max for updates on TG and Twitter, but hopefully we receive something come Friday or Saturday for the said announcement.
Token release is very important for the token price and for the platform too.

First, it is tokenomics that needs to be well designed to help the token can maintain its price and avoid unnecessary inflation like GameFi tokens.
Second, it is security that must be very well built and tested many times by the team and even with trusted cryptocurrency audits companies. If there are bugs in smart contracts, the token will be exploited and hackers will dump it seriously.

I believe Shuffle team are building many things for SHFL TGE and delay is normal. If they already had plans for promotion, they will execute it one way or another and that time will come with us.
134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: VanEck, GrayScale, Fidelity and others Now on Google Ads. on: February 03, 2024, 03:13:47 PM
As far as I know Google ads have started allowing Bitcoin ETF providers to advertise their services on their platform since the American authorities allowed Bitcoin ETF trading in their country. This is certainly good news for Bitcoin ETF providers, because they can get the best place on Google for the keyword "Bitcoin ETF" and have quite a lot of potential users from the US market.
Google started to allow Bitcoin and cryptocurrency advertisement, not began with Bitcoin Spot ETF advertisement. It means there will be more advertisements for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency on Google which is a biggest search engine. It will help to bring more people to blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. With time it will help to increase capital in this market and increase demand on Bitcoin as well as cryptocurrency.

Advertisement on Google will also will trigger other big techs to have more friendly view on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in future.

Quote
Maybe this will be a good thing for the Bitcoin market, because then Bitcoin ETF providers will increase their holdings in Bitcoin or ETF users can find out about Bitcoin and start investing in it.
They are buying and will buy more bitcoin. In other words, they bring more demand to Bitcoin market and many circulating supply will be locked in Bitcoin Spot ETFs. Less bitcoin available on spot market for purchasing and trading, I am very optimistic on price in future.

It is like attack against Bitcoin. One day after attack from the USA, there is another one from Europe. They don't do this randomly but nearly in time coincidentally, all was planned, in my opinion.

Many fud against Bitcoin mining and it is just coming back when Bitcoin needs correction.

Ses a fud in 2017
Bitcoin mining on track to consume all of the world's energy by 2020.

Magically, not till 2020 but today in 2024, we still have energy to use even Bitcoin network hashrate grew a lot since 2020 and Bitcoin mining industry grew dramatically.

What will you do after all is more important than what whales are doing. You get profit or loss by what you do, not by what whales do.
137  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it okay for Bitcoin Core development to be funded by Banks? on: February 02, 2024, 02:40:34 PM
To start, Banks and governments will fight to prevent its use as a currency or they will co-opt it to more completely control the movement of money.

Yeah, and how is that working?
Cause I see governments legalizing's Bitcoin everywhere but when I ask bitcoiners if they want to use it as a currency 99% of the responses are "My previous, why spend it, it can be 10000% after the halving, it's stupid to spend this investment, my precious, give it to me".  Grin
They will have to sell bitcoins to have cash but how much they will sell from total bitcoins they have will be different by investors. Investors who have strong finance and good finance management, will don't need to sell bitcoin because need of money to use. They already reserve cash to use without need to sell bitcoin.

With small investors who can bet all in bitcoin, they have bad capital, financial management and they will have to sell bitcoin even before a halving. Sometimes they have sudden need of cash and can not hold their bitcoin.

Have good financial and capital management will hep us to maximize our chance to get profit.

Manchester United got all 3 points yesterday and they should all be thankful to Mainoo who was able to convert that chance he had from the run. Imagine he missing that chance then I think the fans will be ready to tear him apart and I guess he had that in mind before taking that power shot.
They led the opponent 3 -1 but let them equalized it within 10 minutes and they must feel happy and appreciate the big gift from Mainoo. Hope the young player will grow up more and contribute more for Manchester United and this important role for the club is his good beginning in Manchester United squad.

Quote
Now you see why I tell you Manchester United aren’t a team to trust because they can hand you surprises when you don’t expect because I don’t know why a team having a 2-0 lead will begin to fumble to 3-3 at the final minutes. Well they’ll have to work very hard if they want to continue fighting for an European spot and they’ve got to begin with the Goal Keeping position.
They can score goals and even many goals but they can fail to protect their goalkeeper and can not turn their goals to winnings and points. It happens many times in latest seasons and again we just witnessed their chronic problems. Their weak defense also is bad because they easily got big and shameful defeats like a big defeat under Liverpool or Tottenham.

Those shocked defeats usually are not from a strong team that can be trusted. Manchester United are a risky team for gamblers to spend money and bet on Manchester United. Even they won against Wolverhampton, many gamblers lost money with their belief and bets on Manchester United.

I guess for experience gamblers, we shouldn't used VPN in the first place. If it is prohibited by the casinos and it's clearly on their ToS, then we shouldn't violate it simply as that as it might give you problems in the future.
If we don't have something to hide, we should not use VPN because benefit is less than potential risk and damage on our account and money.

By saying "something to hide", I don't imply that users use VPN are bad users but they must know about risk of casino's suspicious activity detection, and if they don't want to have problem with it, they will be careful with VPN.

If they care about privacy, want to use VPN, make sure they don't store big money in their account. It's their prevention for something bad happens and they fail with their appeal.
140  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Revision of High transaction fee in bitcoin. on: February 02, 2024, 12:10:57 PM
If you don't want to pay high fees, use a network or lightning network and broadcast the transaction/open channels when the fees are low, batch transactions when the fees are low, use a good wallet that supports RBF options, but the option to support some quick fixes like increasing the block size Or banning BRC20 has bad future effects.
Consolidation is good to use when mempools are clear and transaction fee is cheap. Lightning Network will need an on-chain transaction to open a channel, so if demand to use it only occurs when transaction fee is expensive, it is unrealistic for small Bitcoin holders, who don't need to make many transactions.

Side chains like Liquid or Rootstock.
