I wouldn't be surprised if some of these are actually the same person or the brother/father/mother/wife of each other. In some places, 1 BTC is actually worth years of their salary. Spamming all day for this prize really pays off.
With 4000 posts in a month, I wouldn't be surprised if it's the exact opposite this time: the entire family uses the same account to spam. I'm glad Yobit wants them so badly, I hope they continue this contest to keep'm there Cheesy

Your last weekly update has ten UID's on my list, so unless the last one is banned, then it should say "yes" (unless I'm missing something?)
See here.

Right now I can see your rating on minime's profile so you must be on the list of someone I trust.
My update is still not finished yet, but I can already see you have Timelord2067 on your Depth 1 (the same as yahoo62278 has).
I've said it before: a custom Trust list has large recursive implications, and I'm sure most users have no idea who's on their Depth 1, let alone their Depth 2!

I'm quoting this from another topic, as it fits here better:
Your last weekly update has ten UID's on my list, so unless the last one is banned, then it should say "yes" (unless I'm missing something?)
This list means you could qualify for DT1 once theymos runs the next update. That would mean you'll get to include or exclude other DT1-members, but considering you have more DT1-exclusions than inclusions, you'll still be excluded. That doesn't take away your DT1 voting power, but the feedback you left still won't show up by default.

Theymos usually updates DT1 in the first few days of the new month.

The issue is with how easy it is to forget these things. I've spoken about this before in various thread on here, but there a million and one things that can happen to anybody without warning which can result in significant and not fully reversible memory problems.
It's been more than a year since I last saw my paper wallets. They must be somewhere in the house, but after searching everywhere, I didn't find them. I've given up searching, hoping we'll find them if we ever move out.
Strange enough I can remember most passwords for a very long time.

If it says there's a wasp, a puddle and a log next to each other, the wasp can be resting on the log which is floating on the water.
If you put it like this, I can visualize it as pictures on a wall in your house. I know it's not exactly from memory, but will be impossible for an online attacker to find.
Just be careful when you search for images, Google remembers everything. Ideally, you should have a very large image collection already for all seed words before creating the seed phrase.
16946  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: generating unlimited address from same wallet ? on: October 31, 2019, 02:15:09 PM
for now i will code a script, that will keep sweeping m/0/0  to m/0/1000
So you're wasting money on fees while spamming the blockchain?

You'll have to be more clear anyway: 1000 is far from "unlimited", and even if you'd manage to get an "unlimited" number, a light wallet depends on a server, and that server won't sync above a certain number of addresses. You'll have to run your own node at some point.
But if you're seriously planning to fund and empty every address you're going to generate for users, you should rethink what you're doing.

Note: Veleor shallow brain, very stupid, penis length is the size of his mind.
Great argument! This is really helpful to get people to see your side of the story.

Now, move (lower-left) this to Reputation, it has nothing to do with Meta. Or even better: move this thread to Archival, and post in Hacked or sold profiles tagged by Veleor.
16948  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: [OCT 2019] Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs! on: October 31, 2019, 07:44:56 AM
Many explorers are now being proven wrong by the miners considering a lot of fluctuations in the minimum fee structure due to the market price volatility.
I now mostly use Bitcoin Core's estimate:
Image loading...
Currently, 4 hour(s) is the lowest estimate for 1 sat/byte. I think this is based on the fees seen in the past 4 hours. If fees suddenly go up, it can take much longer. Fees are usually lowest in the weekend, so if for instance you make this transaction right before the Monday traders wake up, it could take much longer.

I love this one as well--and the idea of having bitcointalk-member-themed trading/playing cards was brought up a while back but nothing ever came of it.  I would cream my jeans if someone actually produced physical cards that looked like this.  It would be an amazing snapshot of bitcointalk at the point in its history at which they were made, and years in the future they would be looked upon with great interest and probably would become great collectibles.  Can't someone please produce a set of cards like this?
I can try to make cards directly for Bitcoinalk, but i don’t know yet how this can be implemented in real world, not only in Forum and dont know how to distribute cards.
Currently i can make cards online, individual for the account, for example as an avatar.
Although it would fit better in a dedicated topic, a site like artscow gets you one set of 54 playing cards with custom prints on both sides for $13.99. This could actually work as a collectible. It looks like you must have spent a lot of time on each card though, so making 54 of them might be a bit much.
16950  Economy / Reputation / Re: Wrongful accusation by Timelord. Did Yahoo put him in DT? on: October 30, 2019, 09:47:37 PM
Timelord2067 is not in yahoo's trust list either and shouldn't be showing up even on his 2nd level. So there must be some misunderstanding. Let's wait for him to respond.
I haven't updated my Trust Depth list in half a year, but back in April yahoo62278 had Timelord2067 on his Depth 1.
I'll see if I can still update it, chances are the changes to the Trust scores broke it.
Update: it's updated with last week's data.

Thirty-second week paid.
Thanks!
I only now notice this post, suchmoon made me miss it and because DST ended, I didn't expect it yet. So thanks again for your impeccable timing

>4 is where all the cool kids hang out.
I expect >4 to be filled with many very interesting Newbies.

I should have started with a brand new sockpuppet account when the merit system was created, without the baggage of old activity at below 1:1 merit ratio.
You could of course delete (give or take) your first 10,000 posts to increase your Merit/Activity ratio Tongue
16952  Economy / Services / Re: LoyceV's Avatar for Rent [first 31 weeks rented out] on: October 30, 2019, 06:39:58 PM
Ouch. This hurts!  Tongue
Your Merit/Activity > 3 qualifies for looking like me Cheesy
16953  Economy / Services / Re: LoyceV's Avatar for Rent [first 31 weeks rented out] on: October 30, 2019, 06:37:30 PM
It's very tempting to post "Thank you" and see if anyone would notice anything unusual.
Merit/Activity <2 instead of >3 is a dead giveaway Tongue Besides, I'm not a nanny Cheesy

Maybe it's time to request a custom title, something like "certified human" will do Cheesy
16954  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Segmentation? on: October 30, 2019, 06:25:25 PM
Pruning is good but not enough. Syncing transactions is a nightmare and what makes pruning almost useless.
The main problem with pruning is that you can't import a pre-funded address anymore. Syncing isn't that much of a problem, I recently did something stupid which forced my pruned Bitcoin Core to re-download everything. My laptop is approximately 5 years old and it wasn't state of the art when I bought it, but running Linux with enough RAM, the chainstate directory on SSD and an increased dbcache, it took just 1 full day to sync again.
If you're limited on bandwidth or hardware it can still be problematic, but instead of trusting someone else with some arbitrary starting point, why don't use you a wallet that doesn't require downloading the full blockchain?

16956  Other / Meta / Re: Feature Request: Follow users on bitcointalk.org on: October 30, 2019, 06:00:48 PM
It's a good feature. But the problem is that list of the users that their posts are shown in this page is controlled only by you and I cannot have my own list.
I could create it for custom lists too, but it's kinda resource intensive to create for a lot of different custom lists, that's why I want to offer it as a service to signature campaigns.

Further information and documentation available on request.
Why don't you share it here? I'd love to know how you plan to make a good margin on storing a million tonnes of CO2! In fact, if you can do that, I think there are much better uses than adding 6 lines of code to an exchange.
16958  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: A great lesser known wallet! [BlueWallet] on: October 30, 2019, 05:44:22 PM
I tried installing Bluewallet on a completely different Android device, with a different Android version, and that one gets stuck on a white screen too! I don't even get to the part where it asks to create a wallet.
I have no experience installing older versions, and I try not to install anything outside the Play Store.
After contacting a dev on Telegram, it turns out it's a known bug. They hadn't been able to reproduce it yet, but after I mentioned my Android version they did. So I expect and hope it to be fixed in the next release.

Because of this:
~
I would keep away from bluewallet for a bit.
If the OP really did nothing "wrong" but bluewallet did then it's a big flag for me.
I saw the topic, and can't help but think it's just plain dumb to put close to 6 BTC in a phone wallet. I haven't looked for their conditions, but usually software has a standard disclaimer saying it's delivered "as is" with "without warranty". I don't think this is much different in other wallets if something goes wrong.

I'm only using BlueWallet for small amounts anyway, and wouldn't recommend to use any hot wallet for storing large amounts.

Mixing Strength Meter shows (week/decent/strong/smart)
I checked, and the site actually shows "week". This should be changed to "weak".

All that is needed now is for investors who want to see this serial scammer Dean Nolan in jail and want to have any hope of seeing their money again is to get together and form a "Victims of Betking Group".
You should probably change the title to highlight this.
