Google.com might be worth more than $2,725,000 maybe this domain would also be wroth a few million.
Think about a world without Google. To me it's scary in both way. With and without it. With: The entire search function, digital advertising are highly depending on google meaning they are the big giant. Having so much power to one hand is dangerous. People may say Facebook is a threat for them but IMHO Facebook is more of social experience, google is everything. Without: The entire internet will wonder where to look for something. There are yahoo, bing, duckduckgo but how many people use them is a big question to me. Ok, my point is that are we really big like google? My guess is not even near yet. It was hoped by theymos that the new forum software be made open source and availabe for everyone to use although I think they're still trying to go through the bugs in the forum software. Learning about this huge amount of money already spent on a project, the only one thing I can hope is the good wishes. I hope the end product will be satisfactory for the entire community. |

I don't get it. What does this have to do with the price of the Cooper Member upgrade?
Not sure which part you are unsure about. Please excuse my newb writing style  Not to upgrade: The copper membership was suggested so that image can be enabled for me. It would be nice to have images enabled however I figured out I am not desperate for it ATM. The North Korea stuffs: To response hilariousetc statement, "Not sure if it's the same price for everyone though." It is the same price for everyone (0.00208333BTC). It should be, isn't it? My confusion was from this: "Looks like the price is fixed." -------------------------- @jackg When you look next to a post, and see your username and your coins, look down a bit and ignore is blow the trust rating, it's becoming a more and more useful fuction here... Ahhh! got it. there's a report to moderator button, What sorts of posts get reported? I still haven't spotted much about reporting. This will help me not to post something that might get reported. Another educational tip, that's the altcoin section, Can I have a link for that section. Interesting, these people think they will become rich spamming the forum? Who pays them LOL Stick to the good parts of the forum and leave the spammers where they are we don't want them to swamp the good parts too. Haha, yes I will besides I do not have much time to hangout with spammers to spam with them Thanks a ton mate, you are truly helpful. I never expected this much of welcoming from an unknown space. |

Says BTC0.00208333 which is around fifteen dollars for me. Not sure if it's the same price for everyone though.
It will not be the same for everyone. I was watching some videos about North Korea other day, it was sad to know that people over there are earning $1 - $3 a month (keyword $1 - $3 a month!). I hope I am really wrong. Here is a reference: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-average-salary-that-North-Koreans-makeBack to the membership things, thank you for offering me however I do not have much urgency to have the feature now. I am ok to wait until I have the desire rank for it. @TryNinja For me it also states 0.00208333 BTC The price for a membership should be same for everyone or there are something else? Just curious to know by the way. |

Nice, thanks for pointing out the idioicy of OP. You are welcome The Pharmacist. My motivation to see his post history was to determine his qualification before suggesting anything that could help the forum. I figured out that the guy is one of those who are here to spam the forum for their own interest. It's ok to have your own interest but you have no right to harm others. |

Me  Booked! When I become one you will definitely get hired So far yours is 1000 so you're off the list No, it's ∞, ∞ and ∞ which makes 3∞/3 = ∞  I am just kidding mate. although I sense you will be Yeah, hope someday I will. Thank you for the positive expectation. Update: Surprise to see that you are not on the list!! |

Yeah, a huge amount was spent on the new forum software. I assume they're still talking to theymos and cyrus quite a lot but other than that...
One must admit that, this was really overpriced. I never heard about any website that could cost around $2,725,000 (consider this was the $$ value back then). How many working hours we are talking about to complete even the most complex web application ever? Ref to study: https://intersog.com/blog/tech-tips/how-to-estimate-software-development-project-in-man-hours-realistically/https://alistapart.com/article/manpoweronawebteamLet's say 10,000 hours in that case if you pay $25/hr then it's $250,000. Question is, do we really think creating a forum software really needs 10,000 working hours? reducing transaction fees also when the network was really clogged a few months back Yes, months back it was insane however it's relatively ok now. I believe the community will find a solution for that eventually. LN is one of the initiative. you can now post that link I feel a bit free now |

@TryNinja So, how there is nothing wrong with web wallets? Did you mistype your answer? I fixed it. Yes, I messed up with word selection and completing the sentence . Thank you very much. |

And what about web version wallets?
There are nothing wrong with web wallets. It's just not as secure as a desktop or hardware wallet. A web wallet can get hacked easily. There are nothing wrong with web wallets except it's just not as secure as a desktop or hardware wallet. A web wallet can get hacked easily. i.e: Someone can send you a phishing link, you click and try to login to your web wallet. Intimidatingly, the scammer get your credentials and can take your bitcoin from your wallet. A desktop wallet does not cost any money like some of the web wallet. For any kind of wallet, you need to keep a backup of your seed. If you have your seed then you can restore a wallet anytime. |

Hi, I suggest you to use Electrum wallet. If you need help then I have the step by step video tutorials for the forum. Please visit for the tutorials: Idea: Courses [Video Tutorial 1.1.1 - Getting Started with Bitcoin Wallet]Please remember, Electrum is more secure than any other online (hot) wallet. There are no chance for you to get hacked unless you intentionally or unintentionally expose your seed/private key. I hope this will be helpful. Regards, iPwB |

Removed. blockchain.com was in the past identified as a phishing site, but I guess that the real company got their hands on it at some point.
Thank you @theymos. I am glad that admin heard me ------------------ <snip>
5000BTC was still worth a lot back then... This topic has been created on March 20, 2014. The bitcoin price was around $545 (please click here for reference) which means $2,725,000!!! OMG! Were/are they making a forum software or inventing a new OS or preparing for moon landing? The only thing altcoins are good for is trading to increase your Bitcoin balance . Well this is the only reason I buy alts and when get a good price I sell, no holding to shitcoins Also, are we not good enough for you? No no mate, it's not about you lot, it's me do not have much interest on spending time on a forum. But seems like I am having some good connection so far. And I am glad I have signed up here. ----------------- I hope this will work now for me... www.blockchain.com |

So, for me the calculation is... $Merit = 10;
$Activity = 16;
$Trust = ∞; // this coder have no clue what is this
$myRank = (10+16+∞)/3;
$myRank = ∞/3;
$myRank = ∞;
printf ($myRank); So ya, I can understand why I am not on the list The most unrecognized dude in the hood  ------------------------------- Top 20 Bitcointalk celebrity here...I will signing autographs next week. Just check my fan page for details!

@BTCforJoe I feel like www.bitcoin.com should be parsed by default for all users. To me, that site is more malicious than any ponzi/hyip/doubler just sayin' I can not disagree with you. Funny thing is after the fork or around the time of the fork they rebranded (reorganised) the whole site with information for Bitcoin Cash. It's actually confusing now. The domain completely means it's a website for Bitcoin but once you visit the website you will see everything about Bitcoin Cash. Ethically this is not right. If you are to promote Bitcoin Cash then have the domain BitcoinCash.com and do your shits there. These guys were using brand image of Bitcoin to buildup their own altcoin (Bitcoin Cash). They are still using the brand image of Bitcoin and promoting their altcoin, sadly there are not much noise about it. Newcomers in the cryptospace can easily get confused and fall for Bitcoin Cash when their main goal was to buy Bitcoin. @LoyceV Thank you for the wonderful explanation. You can buy a Copper membership (around 0.002BTC) to post images Yes, some other members also suggested me to buy one. Thing is, I actually do not know how long I will stay on this forum. I am not a community person, I keep myself busy with my own stuffs. I heard about this forum long ago but never actually visited here. Other day while I was doing something, I discovered that this forum is going to create a newer version which is costing them 5000 BTC!!! So I could not resist to register to see what exactly you guys have in here. Few stuffs so far I have picked... - Those 5000 BTC contract was long ago when BTC price was not that much, so it's not like how it sounds - This forum is kind of money making platform for some people who think these tokens will make them rich (sorry people you are dreaming) - There are some members who are highly knowledgeable and doing real contributions for Bitcoin Network and the community. - There are people who are very polite and friendly. They are willing to help others to resolve their issues. So, thumbs up to you guys. @jackg I appreciate your feedback. You have to remember that it's not personal and we were all newbies once. Yes I completely understand it now. It's the default setting for the forum and not specified to a single person. Hopefully someday I will become an old member to have enough freedom Regards, iPwB |

@jackg, @LoyceV So as a new member... 1. I can not post image 2. Certain sites will be restricted for me (replace with [Suspicious link removed]) what else? Is this how you treat a new member? I guess this way you guys actually protect the forum some how. If yes then it's a good thing. I just need to wait for myself to become fairly old I guess. @TryNinja The in that case the guy who sold this domain made a lot of money I guess if it was a phishing link before Creation Date: 2011-03-08T10:04:3 |

It's about making comment on this forum not the blog. It's not my blog, it Blockchain's blog This topic is all about [Suspicous Link Removed] for blockchian domain which has .com TLD. I was using the blog url to give the reference of my claim that they had this announcement, they are going to change the domain TLD from .into to .com Lastly, if you see the blog url then you will see it's basically a subdomain for the domain blockchain with .com TLD Test to see if it shows [Suspicous Link Removed] for me. ][Suspicious link removed]blockchain.infoupdate: Seems like for me it replace the .com domain with [Suspicious link removed]. Is this because I am a newbie? |

These are some forum rules... 1. No zero or low value, pointless or uninteresting posts or threads. [1][e]
1. Such posts like "SELL SELL SELL", "I agree", "+1", "Support", "Watching", "Interesting", "LOL", "SCAM", "LEGIT", "FAKE", other one word posts, posts consisting mostly of swearing, quote pyramids,useless introduction threads, threads about a topic already recently discussed in several other threads. Ref: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0This is what I found out from your post history page... good qoustion Wink Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2819742.msg37205558#msg37205558it is great project
it is nice
good airdrop
nice work
coooooooool
very nice

Avoid these kind of postings. If you do not find anything to post then don't post. There are no harm for not posting regularly. Posting like this actually encouraging fraud scam bounty campaign managers to run their campaigns. |

Other day, I was working on my video tutorial topic: Idea: Courses [Video Tutorial 1.1.1 - Getting Started with Bitcoin Wallet] Everything was just fine but after posting the contents I found out the URL for .com was replaced by [Suspicious link removed]. Ref: below bold text... I actually figured out how to trick the system, although the link will not be a clickable link. Anyway after doing some research I found out that the system actually replace any link which could be a phishing link with the text [Suspicious link removed]. I assume on the forum database there is a table which has the list of phishing addresses and once it matches with any of them then it removes the risky website url with [Suspicious link removed] text. This is a very good step for the admin, this will reduce information hacking from the members. However, in this case I would say the admin got it wrong. Perhaps they have missed the announcement. www.blockchain.com is actually the former www.blockchain.info. They have rebranded the domain from .info to .com. They announced the news on June 22, 2018 on their blog. In fact there were a small notice area on the top of the www.blockchain.info website that they are going to change the domain TLD soon. Earlier this week we announced that we’ll be consolidating blockchain.info into blockchain.com to create a unified experience for our users Please read the full post /2018/06/22/what-you-need-to-know-about-blockchain-infos-domain-move]hereI tried to bring all the references for the admin and hope admin will have a look and fix the wrong entry on the database table. Regards, iPwB update: Here is the archive link for the blog post: http://archive.is/HRmeQThe above original link was replaced by the text https://blog.[Suspicious link removed]/2018/06/22/what-you-need-to-know-about-blockchain-infos-domain-move |

don't be cheap, pay a few bucks and be able to post images. if any merits are left on me by the time you are above member rank I will also give you merits. for now I don't trust you enough to give you any merits.
"don't be cheap, pay a few bucks and be able to post images." - Are you saying that I have to buy one? Can't I wait until I achieve the next rank? How does this make me cheap? "for now I don't trust you enough to give you any merits." what trust you are talking about? Did I ask for anything to trade to you? Seems like you are lacking respects for others. I hope not everyone is like you here. ------------------------ SuiMikira, I have no idea what are you talking about? --------------------------- Thank you Crypto_Sassy, I am getting there. --------------------------- I have updated the main topic and with more contents. Please review and let me know your feedback. Regards, iPwB |

I am fairly new to the forum however would you mind if I join? The idea is related to cleaning the forum which reminds me a combination of a forum icon and a cleaning brash. These are some forum icons:   Here is a cleaning brash icon:  May be we can create an icon combining the forum icon and a cleaning brash like we see for ccleaner.  Or may be a brash icon combine with a BTC icon? Hope you don't hate me  |
