Great timing again, much appreciated Smiley

Hey, can you extract BTG from P2SH address ?
I don't know, I've never tried it, and can't find a quick answer to your question either.

Make sense 😉
There you go, have it your way:
New: Descending order
Starting January 22, 2020, my Trust Flag viewer is now in descending order (newest Flags first).

Allow me to use this opportunity to promote Add comments to Flags on LoyceV's Trust Flag viewer. Example:

The comments should be under the Flags, but I messed up the BBCode when I changed the order. This should be fixed in the next version.

I'll move my post here too:

actmyname is the only user I trust that you distrust...
Although slightly off-topic here, I want to correct this misunderstanding: excluding someone from your Trust list can mean you 1. distrust their judgement on their Trust list, 2. distrust their judgement in their sent feedback, or 3. both.

This is really a wasp nest: it's virtually impossible to agree (or disagree) on someone's entire Trust list and all their sent feedback, so it's usually a compromise. It's probably best not to take this personally.

I'd like to think I could trust Bitcointalk against anything but legal subpoenas within proper jurisdiction, but maybe not?

16006  Economy / Reputation / Re: Flag on a scam advertising 100% win rate, Double Spending tool on: January 22, 2020, 10:16:51 AM
Double spending tool? Never heard any core dev to develop such a thing. @loyceV you know anything about this?
Just dropping in without knowing the context: I've used Bitcoin Core in the past to double spend a transaction with 0 fee that was still stuck after 2 weeks. Double spending isn't necessarily a bad thing, but there's a reason you shouldn't except a transaction without confirmations either: it's not guaranteed to confirm!
For normal Bitcoin use, you shouldn't need to double spend anything. If the fee is too low, use RBF or CPFP.

Needless to say: I wouldn't trust anyone who even suggests to use "a tool" for this.

Now imagine many users like that reached Hero or even Legendary status before the Merit system. This guy would have been close to Legendary too if it wasn't for the 999 missing Merits.

16010  Economy / Reputation / Re: Should DT and Merit Source Members Be Promoting A Known Scam? on: January 21, 2020, 04:58:12 PM
It's up to DT1 to clean DT. In wolwoo's case, that works just fine: wolwoo (Trust: +2 / =1 / -3) (DT1 (-8) 413 Merit earned) (Trust list) (BPIP).

Merit sources are up to theymos, and as far as I know his application has not been accepted. I can't really judge his Merit sending judgement because I can't read most of the posts, but if his judgement on Trust is a indicator for this, it's not good.

Since scams aren't moderated, I don't think promoting a scam is necessarily a reason to reject a Merit source application. Clear judgement is what's needed though, and anger tantrums aren't a good sign.

16013  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: ⚡ [List] The coolest LN services ⚡ on: January 21, 2020, 10:47:18 AM
Way ahead of you Tongue

Seriously though: good initiative, I like LN, and despite it's potential barely anyone talks about it.

Lightning Network Stores directory lists many sites that accept LN. Some really cool, some totally worthless.

I like lightning.gifts too, it lets you create LN vouchers. Note that this is of course custodial, and risking your funds is entirely up to you.
Here's 250 LN satoshi for the first person who claims it.

Kriptode.com has another nice feature: earn/buy/sell/follow/spam Tweets or other things for LN.

The most important thing I learn from here, '' If you did wrong something and realize yes you did wrong and after that, if you apologize for your fault then you will get more and more punishment."
It's more like: if you did something wrong, the more attention you draw, the more negative feedback you get.
16015  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: Can you prove Randomness? on: January 21, 2020, 09:06:40 AM
One day given that we have enough resources to identify these "Random Patterns", they won't be "Random" anymore.
I'll only respond to this part with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle:
Quote
the position and the velocity of an object cannot both be measured exactly, at the same time, even in theory. The very concepts of exact position and exact velocity together, in fact, have no meaning in nature.
If you can't know speed and velocity of a particle exactly, you can't predict an impact, which means you can never have enough resources to identify this random event.

I like the use of cosmic microwave background radiation power spectrum as a random bit generator: there's no way you can ever predict the radiation, and if you would try to measure it outside the random generator, all you accomplish is changing the random output.

Is your scrapper fast enough to get the original post before any edit/addition is done to it?
Try it Cheesy Loading the page after posting takes a few seconds, editing takes a few seconds, so try Tongue

Quote
What is the delay you are using for your scrapper?
I prefer not to post the exact delay, but I've also noticed it sometimes takes a tad longer (maybe because of lag, and because of the time needed to process the data).

Quote
Or maybe there is a way to retrieve the original/unedited post from bitcointalk?
As far as I know, edits within 10 minutes aren't saved by the forum.
16017  Economy / Reputation / Re: Selling reviews for money. on: January 20, 2020, 06:45:19 PM
I have an assumption: If you kill someone accidentally, will you be punished by law?
No.

Quote
Can you explain: "I don't know killing is a crime"?
Murder is a crime, killing isn't necessarily a crime. It can be an accident or self defence.

I'm only going into this to show you came up with a bad example Tongue

Quote
The same thing here, you're selling reviews, it's from you, and of course you'll provide positive reviews. What do you think when you're talking about you not selling any fake reviews?
I've seen many offers to pay for reviews, just like I've seen review websites that are paid by the company and only post positive reviews. Since I know this, I also know never to rely on reviews alone.
16018  Economy / Reputation / Re: PrimeNumber7 is an alt of Quickseller, Take 2 on: January 20, 2020, 06:05:32 PM
Interesting spelling mistakes, I always thought QuickSeller was a native English speaker.

So, if you want to hide your alt: set your spelling checker to a different language (Australian English for instance).
And if you want to pretend to be someone else: add a few incorrect words from said person to your auto-replace list.

If you're not a native English speaker (and an American one at that), then it may be more difficult to judge just how uncommon certain words, phrases and misspellings are
A quick search on Google shows how frequent certain spellings are used.

  • Quickseller and PrimeNumber7 are clearly interested and fluent in the same topics but never quoted or replied to each other.
  • Quickseller never sent merits to PrimeNumber7 and vice versa.
If they're alts, at least they uphold some standards Smiley

Which is why I'm happy to keep it on standby and use Blue for small amount testing. (and yes, I have the 24 word password written down)
Did you also backup the Lightning wallets within BlueWallet? That's a separate backup, and each new wallet needs a new backup. I used to take a picture of the QR-code, but the latest version allows to copy the code to clipboard so I've emailed it to myself. Not very secure, but I don't mind for small amounts.

I don't even have an on-chain wallet in BlueWallet anymore: I can fund the LN-wallet from any other Bitcoin wallet directly, and if I want to get funds back on-chain I use an external exchange.
16020  Economy / Reputation / Re: Abusing merit system and Yobit campaign. on: January 20, 2020, 03:54:40 PM
The top 3 guys with 44, 50, and 16 merits sent look to be extremely likely culprits of abuse, but the rest are all low senders.
The abuse is in the fact that they all send Merit to a 4 year old post within an hour, after which the post is deleted. Although none of that is against forum rules, I'd say it's abuse.
