A corto plazo: no. A medio plazo: no. A largo plazo: sí. Comparándolo un poco con el oro, me imagino que cuando los primeros humanos descubrieron este metal y empezaron a utilizarlo allí estarían los escépticos de siempre diciendo: "Ese metal no vale nada... si se dobla con solo mirarlo... ¿cómo piensas cazar un mamut con flechas con punta de oro? Déjate de innovaciones y céntrate en la piedra, que es lo que vale de verdad..."  Mas seguro que el bolívar, el petro y el peso argentino: si, si, si. El USD está en peligro, y hay quien plantea ya una posible caída luego de la infusión de tanto dinero inorgánico para detener a la fuerza la dinámica del mercado. Como sabemos, meter la mano al mercado por los políticos inevitablemente ocasiona malos mayores a posterior, y el USD podría estar en peligro de caer, junto con todos quienes le confiaron ciegamente su riqueza. ¿Pero si cae el USD arrastrará al a otras? El todo poderoso EUR también podría verse afectado y una nueva crisis económica mundial que podría estar por venir. Esto hace al bitcoin una de las pocas soluciones reales. ¿quien va conseguir oro a tiempo en países como los nuestros? ¿Y con lo peligroso que es por lo atractivo para la delincuencia? Pero bitcoin es oro digital, lo tienes y nadie tiene que saberlo, ni tu gobierno. Los paraísos fiscales son innecesarios. Los ricachones los usan para pagar menos impuestos, pero si se desploma la economía mundial, esos ricachones se van a arrepentir de no haber comprado bitcoin en su lugar... |

Entonces fue una confusión por mi parte, i honestamente sigo confundido, no entiendo por que antes no podían dejar las 12 palabras en el testamento pero ahora si pueden  Incluso dejar como herencia una memoria USB podría funcionar bien para heredar criptos. Parece que las memorias flash no son muy buenas para eso, algunas pierden los datos al año, otras duran una década... A veces la tecnología mas simple, resulta ser la mas conveniente. |

Doesn't decentralized peer-to-peer email exist?
Well, If you fully control your mails, I don't see how Google will be able to shut it down for no good reason.
We have depended too much on centralized powers for all most anything these days. It's high time we started decentralizing, owning our most cherished data, using peer-to-peer. If these can't be achieved on the current internet then we'll have to abondon it for safe internet
You can actually run your own server, but you need a domain name and probably your own (fixed) IP for it. Of course the smtp part should be properly configured with security in mind, (ie, password) so it doesn't become a spammer's gateway. BUT, some ISPs are picky about you running your own server, even for private reasons. You might be forced to use non standard ports etc... Email is decentralized in this fashion. There is also a similar solution for instant messengers, but people are stubborn and cling to proprietary products. |

You might want to post this somewhere else, the forum might not be here in 80 years  (I can't come back in 2100) - history puts me at living until 2094 I have a chance at stretching it out... I saw a ted talk on this a while ago, I don't even have next week planned out but during the pandemic this might've been a good time to look at this. You can actually do that. There are two methods: Travel at near the speed of light: Take a stroll near Pluto and back, a few days at near light speed will greatly accelerate time on earth from your perspective, keep doing it and you'll be in the year 2100. Hibernation: Hoping they get the awakening part sorted out or the: don't kill the subject at the freeze or whatever slowing metabolism process is applied. You see, travel to the future is already been demonstrated, it is no longer fiction. Now there are a few details here and there, but it is possible. Traveling to the past is still in discussion, something about wormholes and such... Did you know: Merely being in a plane is already making your time stretching your compared to those on land? It is way small, but measurable. And astronauts, yes, those staying some months in the ISS are also skipping a few minutes ahead by the time they return to earth... This time dilation phenomena is corrected by the clocks GPS satellites because their time is already different. Put in another way, those clocks need to tick a tiny little bit slower than on earth so they stay in sync to "slower" time passing on earth, or from our perspective "faster" time passing on space. Einstein came up with this but it wasn't proven until after the late part of the 20th century, he couldn't see his own theory proven in his lifetime. So yeah: travel really fast or hibernate to skip ahead... |

You should switch to a better operating system, such as Linux or BSD. Then this will be a thing of the past.
The problem with malware has plagued Microsoft products since the late 80ies. It is THE reason the name McAfee has any meaning to me, it was the first tool able to remove all of then known 11 variants, before you had to get a virus removal for each virus type (Pong or Stoned, for example).
And yes, it turned out this tool and the infamous person are related.
When the 90ies and Windows 3.x then 95/98 came, things only got worse.
And it got worse as the years passed, with 2000, XP, 7, 8 and now 10. Some things never change, they would fix 10 issues, and 100 more would come.
But since the 90ies, Linux appeared. And since the 90ies, Linux rarely ever get any malware. Because they follow a proper OS design, when file ownership and permissions matter, and where official distro repositories have existed decades before certain companies had got idea of a "software shop" (or virtual desktops for that matter).
Once you switch, you can focus back to things that matter: productivity, entertainment, and not constantly repairing your perma-fragile os again and again.
Whatever time you invest learning "something different" (a decent OS), will be well paid later when you forget malware is still a thing decades later...
I dual-booted since 97, and went exclusive in 2007. I don't miss the nonsense.

Whether you feel that it's safe without wearing a mask if your government requires you to wear one, you must follow. Does your government allow you to go outside even without a mask?
I didn't wear mask while being outside even when it mandatory, I just had it on chin. I understand that it's needed in shops or public transport where there is close contact with other people. But I think it's not needed when you walk in streets, parks and etc. You barely can get infected when other person will walk near you, if you afraid you can keep distance from other people. At least government lifted this requirement and people now are allowed to breath clean weather. It's almost summer, weather is getting hot and face masks makes breathing more complicated. The mask does not protect YOU. It is meant to reduce spread in case you got it but don't know it because its at an early stage or you are asymptomatic like a quarter of cases are. akram143 is correct that keeping your mouth shut does achieve the same thing. But can you do it? Can you not TALK at all while outside? That's the reason for the fabric masks. Also coughs and sneezes... Indeed your hands should not touch anything. If they do, don't touch yourself until you can wash them with soap, etc. Especially important to not touch your face or "adjust" your mask once you are outside, simply don't touch it again until you return and washed your hands. And then wash it / dispose it properly. You musn't underestimate the virus ability to spread from inanimate objects you may casually touch with your hands. Wearing gloves merely moves the danger to the gloves, but its still there. |

Is this some sort of collective catharsis after extended COVID-19 lockdowns?
At least half of these people will fall ill the next week or two unless they had already recovered from the virus.
A quarter won't even know they have it, and another quarter will die if unattended. The virus will spread greatly in these demonstrations, so when the demonstrators go back home, their families will become ill as well.
In the meantime they have about a week or two to protest as much as they can. To the world it looks like America is on a fire all over the place...
Perhaps Trump is also waiting for the virus to do its job?
Now these racial issues in America appear to have no end. All this segregation and discrimination is alien in many other countries.

Desde luego parece indicar un giro respecto del 2018: "Our view that cryptocurrencies would not retain value in their current incarnation <…>”
"We expect further declines in the future given our view that these cryptocurrencies do not fulfill any of the three traditional roles of a currency: they are neither a medium of exchange, nor a unit of measurement, nor a store of value."
In fact, we believe that they garner far more traditional media and social media attention than is warranted."
Lo interesante por tanto será ver el mensaje, el tono, y el énfasis en los argumentos de ventas, junto con la posible paquetización de ofertas sobre activos centrados en BTC, y la difusión de dichas ofertas entre sus clientes. Bitcoin es seguro a largo plazo. Claro que eso no conviene en algunos sectores, y es mejor sembrar el temor, incertidumbre y duda sobre todo en sus clientes tradicionales y potenciales para que le confíen su riqueza a ellos y no a un activo que no pierde valor en el tiempo y no depende de nadie... Y puede que tengan razón con la mayoría de los altcoin, pero Bitcoin es caso aparte. El tiempo nos ha dado la razón, y nos la seguirá dando. Bitcoin aumenta su valor cada día mas lento, pero no es tanto porque bitcoin aumente, sino porque el resto de las monedas fiat y los altcoin anclados a ellas se devalúan intencionalmente en el tiempo. Por aquel dogma de que sin inflación no crece la economía y demás cuentos de la errada pero aún imperante escuela de Chicago. Para entender el lugar de Bitcoin en el mundo, es necesario estudiar la escuela Austríaca de economía, sobretodo la parte donde proponen usar al oro directamente como dinero, y sus motivaciones. Un siglo después tenemos Bitcoin, que fue diseñado como "oro digital" y es incluso mejor que el oro. |

La característica de 'Only watch' funciona para casi cualquier cartera, y esto es debido a que la información de blockchain, específicamente bitcoin, fue creada con para ser publica. Así que podríamos cargar todas las direcciones de los primeros blockes en nuestra propia cartera, ponerlos en 'Solo observar' y enterarnos si Saint Satoshi gasta sus Bitcoins.
O de que los mueve a una cartera moderna para acabar con el infame ataque teórico. Movimiento de bitcoins no es igual a "gastarlos"; muchos por ignorancia entran en pánico cuando un exchange mueve grandes cantidades de una cartera a otra (por ejemplo de una cartera "caliente" (online) a una cartera "fría" (offline) o vice-versa. Claro que eso anunciaría al mundo el regreso de Satoshi... Así que tal vez nunca veamos eso, salvo que se haga realidad el infame ataque y sean otros quienes lo hagan... Aun así Bitcoin seguirá. Hay propuestas de bloquear o recuperar esos fondos, yo digo que no harán nada y será el gran premio de quien logre dar con el cifrado, tal vez en las próximas décadas de computación cuántica. |

Una vez mas la cartera física "hoja de papel" demuestra su independencia y superioridad respecto a unos artilugios creados por terceros que, inevitablemente recaban datos de sus usuarios.
Cuando escribes a mano 12 palabras en un papel, no hay una empresa espiándote. No es necesaria una transacción comercial para adquirir dicho papel y lápiz.
Lo irónico al usar esos dispositivos, es que también necesitas tener esa hoja. Entonces, tienes la hoja, tienes un password, y dependiendo del caso 2fa, etc.
Una hardware wallet es útil para cantidades pequeñas. Es mejor que usar un teléfono a una pc con windows u otro sistema inseguro. Pero versus la hoja de papel, es claramente inferior.
Me parece tonto usarlas para carteras en frio, es un desperdicio. En lugar de almacenar y proteger una pequeña hoja de papel, se almacena un artilugio Y una hoja de papel. Porque el artilugio puede dañarse guardado... (¿Han visto el tiempo de vida promedio que una memoria flash conserva sus datos?).
Pero lo mas importante es que sus datos personales no van a dar a ningún lado. ¿Y si un gobierno los presiona? Sin el "hacker" mas de uno ni sabría de esto.
Es un tema de dependencia a terceros. Uno de los puntos fundamentales con Bitcoin, es que se puede manejar el dinero sin depender de nadie, ni bancos, ni gobiernos ni empresas o grupos de ninguna índole.

No, no, no, la herencia es solamente un cuaderno. Una de las páginas tiene una curiosa lista de 12 palabras, nada mas. O es un libro, si eso un libro. Que curioso, tiene 12 palabras marcadas, tal vez no signifique nada, totalmente. Hereda 12 palabras. Puedes dejarlas en el testamento |

pues mas que el bitcoin creo que va por el lado del dolar. yo soy de Mexico y no se muy bien como este la situacion alla pero hasta donde tengo entendido no dejan que las personas tengan muchos dolares en su poder y como es muy facil cambiar de bitcoin a cualquier divisa.
Es una copia al carbón del fracasado control de cambio en Venezuela. La novedad es que el gobierno Argentino se ha dado cuenta que su "control" no funciona con Bitcoin, y pretende echarle mano pensando que puede... Pues claro que los controles solo producen el efecto contrario, podemos explicarlo en el área de economía para no aburrir. ¿Que pueden hacer contra Localbitcoins? Nada, es un exchange en el extranjero. Para un Argentino basta con acceder a el por vías alternas, caminos cifrados (en lugar de verdes). Y el manejo de Bitcoin puede hacerse vía Tor (entre otros) perfectamente bien. Sobre los bancos, pues sencillamente se inventa. "Pago por servicios prestados", o cualquier cosa. No se va poner "compra/venta de bitcoin"), para el gobierno solo se ve como una transferencia de pesos de una cuenta a otra entre connacionales, totalmente desapercibido. Por supuesto eso es con personas comunes, no las ballenas que mueven fortunas. Esas tienen sus métodos. ¿Pues que es lo que no quiere el gobierno? Lo obvio: Que los Argentinos no salgan de sus pesos que pierden valor aceleradamente, cosa que a la fuerza jamás funciona ni funcionará nunca. De hecho la sola medida provoca un pánico o estampida en contra del peso (a salir de ellos como sea). Porque de 500 dólares que ganaban los Argentinos, de la noche a la mañana pasaron a ganar 150 por la magia de la inflación. Y de ahí a los 2 dólares que se ganan en Venezuela, basta con mantener la política de controles a la economía... El Argentino debe hacer exactamente lo contrario a lo que su gobierno desea, es la única forma de sobrevivir. Por supuesto que deben comprar bitcoin, y es mas seguro guardarlo que los dólares. Que no es igual esconder un bolso con dólares que un papel con 12 palabras... Y si a la historia nos vamos, en EEUU se prohibió la tenencia de oro en buena parte del siglo 20, quien no lo escondía lo perdía, el gobierno se lo quitaba y punto. Por supuesto el gobierno echará la culpa del fracaso del control a los evasores de la medida, cuando en realidad es la medida misma el problema. Cepo, corralito, como le llamen, todo eso es basura. La economía no es gobernable, los controles no sirven. Y Bitcoin fue diseñado exactamente para evadir esto... |

It is nonsensical in many ways, but people cannot help but try to apply what they know to the new thing they don't.
Are you going to tax bitcoin? in bitcoin, or a fiat equivalent? At what rate? Are you taxing all the little altcoins too? at what rate?
What exactly are you taxing? Someone's wallet? Whatever enters that wallet? What it people just keep undeclared wallets?
Bitcoin is not moving in and out of your country (actually it is, but ALL of it, all the time, as long as nodes exist within).
Its not like people actually send coins from country a to country b, its easier to visualize that way because its what we are used to, but actually...
User from country a hands the keys to control certain coins to user in country b.
I think if they stick to VAT, it might be doable. Then you can go and audit the merchant on things or services that are actually sold. But any other taxation is entirely voluntary, even if they make a law so its compulsory, in reality it will always be voluntary.
Pretty much unenforceable.

Everyone is asking this lol. All i know so far: They claim to have it working with an S17, but nothing has been released yet. It is their main goal for the next (non nightly) release. Nightly is for late bug fixes, requires installing into NAND and is enabled via ssh with the command: bos nightly_feeds on. I have no idea if the other models are close or different enough from the S17 to require separate images, or more testing/changes before getting support.
The other day, when nicehash was paying really high was on the sha265 account not the sha256asicboost, soo there is a point here, there is something bad, a bug or something that not let the Braiins software connect to the sha256 servers.
That btcv2? craze also spread to the sha256asicboost rentals as well... |
|

|

I have used it with Nicehash just fine, it works. This is the URI i used:
stratum+tcp://sha256asicboost.usa.nicehash.com:3368#xnsub
Its simply the asicboost port. I haven't tried non asicboost, but see no point when asicboost works just fine.
BTW: Mining Rig Rentals also work, its only slow to pick up.

It will just be an account setting that can be set on a band new, unused account.
You wont be able to swap things back and forward - ever.
All the mining will be the same - same miner settings - same HIGH quality and PROPERLY managed servers.
No lost MULTIPLE blocks due to NEGLIGENCE like the Derp pools.
Same fee as the rest of the pool 0.9%
It will simply be, if you find a block and the account is flagged as solo, it's a solo reward.
KDB is of course full of up coming changes about this to separate everything - hash rate, rewards, finder type etc.
I've listed all the details in discord a few months back, and will post them here when it's ready - prolly in a few weeks.
Now back to working on this payout+dust today for all the current miners ...
Are you lifting the firmware restrictions to solo miners? |
|
|
|
|
Remember what needed to happen for Bitmain to enable asicboost? Just wait until some third party firmware does it...
If it is about voting, i would vote for enabling ssh access back again. But something tells me, they don't care.
What happens when those third party firmwares allow people to adjust their power usage while theirs don't? Mass firmware migration.
The S17 family appears to have an excessive number of models some which appear to be just a mere firmware change.

I think i would go for 1, not because he would keep driving but because i also want to keep myself safe.
You said slow, but you also said bridge, i don't think i would want to risk it...
If proper regular tests were in place, he would have lost the license. Ah well. As time passes, with autonomous driving, i predict the max age for driving cars will start going down regardless. No excuse to risk others when the car can now drive itself.

Hmpf, panicking over this...
What if this early miner is suddenly in a difficult situation without income because of the pandemic and needed some cash?
As if had said many times before, when your money does not lose value over time, you will aim to spend only whats necesary. I don't think this is any different, which is also the reason the rest of the 40 ₿ remain.
Of course it would be smart to move the whole thing into a modern wallet, but whatever.
Also no, the Spanish thread is a faithful translation of this one, no one there said it was from Satoshi...
