Thank you.

I confirm that I received the payment. Too bad it was a two week campaign. It is very good when we receive to spread a useful service like this one. If you decide to run for more time, I would be happy to participate again.

Being an understanding of Justice Minister, it shows only an understanding based on the laws that already exist. That is, it is quite likely that new laws regulating and defining exactly what it is and how it should be handled by the state will emerge.

From these laws, I believe it will be clearer the limits that the state imposes on the use.

Phil Zimmermann is the creator of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP)
I'm looking for some article or news where he expresses his opinion about Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies, but I have not found any relevant. Is there any good article where he comments on this new economy? Could it be about any particular project or about blockchains.

The big question here is that a rise in Bitcoin will always show that more people are entering this market. But a high in Alts only demonstrates that people are already using the cryptocurrencies and are looking for a bigger yield. Bitcoin is the gateway. It does not matter what you think about it. Until today is the only digital asset with global liquidity.

SEC has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.

Is there any way to know the volume of transactions of Monero that is not going through the exchanges? I imagine that Monero is at least among the top 4 coins that are most commonly used. Not just projects that live from pump and dump on exchanges.

If you want to buy one that already works, from a project that seems to be serious and long-term. That has a strong brand. I would suggest to KuCoin. It is in a strong downturn at the moment what can be seen as an excellent opportunity.

But there are also decentralized ones. And it is in them that I believe more. The best ones for me are: 0x, Knc and BitsShare.

We would have a much higher demand for watches costing $ 850k. We would have full media attention, and anyone without a fraction would call it madness. We would have several politicians trying to ban it. No one else would sell and in less than a week would already be worth 10 million.

Keep Your Identity Small  

Paul Graham

I finally realized today why politics and religion yield such uniquely useless discussions.

As a rule, any mention of religion on an online forum degenerates into a religious argument. Why? Why does this happen with religion and not with Javascript or baking or other topics people talk about on forums?

What's different about religion is that people don't feel they need to have any particular expertise to have opinions about it. All they need is strongly held beliefs, and anyone can have those. No thread about Javascript will grow as fast as one about religion, because people feel they have to be over some threshold of expertise to post comments about that. But on religion everyone's an expert.

Then it struck me: this is the problem with politics too. Politics, like religion, is a topic where there's no threshold of expertise for expressing an opinion. All you need is strong convictions.

Do religion and politics have something in common that explains this similarity? One possible explanation is that they deal with questions that have no definite answers, so there's no back pressure on people's opinions. Since no one can be proven wrong, every opinion is equally valid, and sensing this, everyone lets fly with theirs.

But this isn't true. There are certainly some political questions that have definite answers, like how much a new government policy will cost. But the more precise political questions suffer the same fate as the vaguer ones.

I think what religion and politics have in common is that they become part of people's identity, and people can never have a fruitful argument about something that's part of their identity. By definition they're partisan.

Which topics engage people's identity depends on the people, not the topic. For example, a discussion about a battle that included citizens of one or more of the countries involved would probably degenerate into a political argument. But a discussion today about a battle that took place in the Bronze Age probably wouldn't. No one would know what side to be on. So it's not politics that's the source of the trouble, but identity. When people say a discussion has degenerated into a religious war, what they really mean is that it has started to be driven mostly by people's identities.

Because the point at which this happens depends on the people rather than the topic, it's a mistake to conclude that because a question tends to provoke religious wars, it must have no answer. For example, the question of the relative merits of programming languages often degenerates into a religious war, because so many programmers identify as X programmers or Y programmers. This sometimes leads people to conclude the question must be unanswerable—that all languages are equally good. Obviously that's false: anything else people make can be well or badly designed; why should this be uniquely impossible for programming languages? And indeed, you can have a fruitful discussion about the relative merits of programming languages, so long as you exclude people who respond from identity.

More generally, you can have a fruitful discussion about a topic only if it doesn't engage the identities of any of the participants. What makes politics and religion such minefields is that they engage so many people's identities. But you could in principle have a useful conversation about them with some people. And there are other topics that might seem harmless, like the relative merits of Ford and Chevy pickup trucks, that you couldn't safely talk about with others.

The most intriguing thing about this theory, if it's right, is that it explains not merely which kinds of discussions to avoid, but how to have better ideas. If people can't think clearly about anything that has become part of their identity, then all other things being equal, the best plan is to let as few things into your identity as possible.
Most people reading this will already be fairly tolerant. But there is a step beyond thinking of yourself as x but tolerating y: not even to consider yourself an x. The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you.

 

É como um pendrive. Você recebe com uma espécie de selo. Coloca no computador e cria a chave pública e privada. Só que nem você, nem ninguém tem acesso a chave privada.

Então pode enviar os recursos para o endereço publico. Quando vai resgatar, precisa apertar um pin utilizando um alfinete, isso destroi o aparelho revelando a chave privada. Você encaixa no computador e os arquivos são diferentes. Tem um novo com a chave privada. Você coloca essa chave na electrum e utiliza. O dispositivo já era, não tem mais utilidade.

---

Do faq:

Para movimentar os fundos, você deve empurrar um alfinete pelo buraco marcado na parte de trás, ou na versão 1, quebrar a parte central do Opendime.

Uma vez que a peça foi quebrada, o conteúdo do arquivo será alterado e a chave privada será revelada no arquivo private-key.txt e na imagem de código QR. Não há caminho de volta, e uma vez sem lacre, você deve transferir os fundos para outra carteira.

Importe a chave privada (private-key.txt) em qualquer carteira Bitcoin para poder "varrer" os fundos e gastá-los conforme necessário.

Hi, I made a topic explaining how the opendime works in the Portuguese section of the forum. I did not find any other Portuguese topic explaining it. Do you know if any already existed?

Opendime Portuguese

Btw, Do you think it's safe to participate in a contest like this one, where they distribute opendimes?


Thank you.

 Hardware Wallets são feitas para que você tenha um dispositivo seguro e separado de armazenamento de suas chaves. Elas permitem movimentar suas moedas e tokens de uma maneira mais simples e segura. Pode retirar e colocar fundos num determinado endereço e repupera-la pois possui a chave privada.

  Numa situação hipotética, digamos que queira comprar um carro por 1 BTC que "está" na sua Ledger. Mas ao invés de enviar uma transação pela rede, decide entregar a sua Ledger ao dono do carro. Talvez a taxa esteja absurdamente alta, ou por qualquer outra razão. Demonstra que possui 1 BTC e entrega. A questão ai é que existem maneiras de você recuperar os fundos dessa carteira. Ou seja, ao vendedor não basta ter acesso ao seu dispositivo, se um terceiro teve acesso a seed, a private keys ou mesmo ao dispositivo anteriormente, já era a confiança. É muito arriscado já que esse não é o objetivo inicial dela.

 Já a opendime tem exatamente esse propósito. Permitir que você possa entregar o dispositivo a alguém presencialmente. Quem segura o dispositivo, é o dono dele. O design foi pensado para impedir resgates ou qualquer outra operação que deixe alguma duvida nessa interação. Você não pode retirar e colocar fundos como ocorre nas outras "carteiras". Para trasferir o saldo utilizando a rede, resgatar, precisa destruir o dispositivo. E ainda utilizar uma outra carteira como a Electrum.

 Então em muitos momentos ela serve como um cofre naquele estilo porquinho. Pode ir enviando recursos para o endereço, mas quando precisar movimenta-los, terá que destruir o dispositivo.

Do faq deles:

A chave privada é única e secreta?

Sim. Opendime é entregue sem qualquer chave privada. Você deve fornecer entropia (números aleatórios) na primeira vez que usá-lo. Uma vez que ele tenha obtido números suficientes, ele irá juntá-los e usar isso para escolher um número aleatório para usar como chave privada. Nesse ponto, o endereço de pagamento é gerado e definido na pedra.

Todo este processo é muito fácil: basta copiar alguns arquivos para a unidade USB. Quando tiver bits suficientes (256k bytes), ele será ejetado e retornará com o endereço de pagamento final.

E se eu esquecer minha senha?
Não há senha nem frase de semente! Está trancado até fisicamente sem lacre.

With increasing numbers of ATMs, it will become increasingly common. Negotiating p2p will still probably be better for rates and prices, but ATM will be important to provide a guarantee and emergency facilities. Now, something that should already be increasingly common in tourist attractions is Bitcoin's own acceptance as a currency. Unfortunately it seems that we have stagnated and the number of businesses does not grow in the same proportion as before.

One simple thing is anywhere, in any situation ask:
  Do you accept Bitcoin?

This shows how important it is to have different emails for different purposes. The vast majority uses pretty much a single email for everything, it has no meaning in that. The chance for you to fill out a form and then receive thousands of sophisticated phishing scams is too big.

One year after calling Bitcoin rat poison, Warren Buffett buys a stake in an insurance company that works exclusively with blockchain and accepts payments in Bitcoin.

He admits he was wrong and only now understands that the future has come. At that time, Bitcoin was worth only 8k, much cheaper than the current value of 80k

The anonymous payment option is incredible. I did not know about such a service. It worked much better than I expected, very fast. I will definitely begin to recommend this service. The possibility of anyone tracking what I do with my bitcoin always worried me, but I always find it very complicated to use the other mixers. Finally felt safe enough to use this service.

tks

I believe that for small payments, you will use LN or something similar. And to access it and transfer funds you will not need anything very complicated. The term wallet sometimes makes the idea of what Bitcoin is quite confusing. Bitcoin has no life outside the blockchain, so what you have are keys to access it.

That is, in the future, for commercial activities like a dinner in a restaurant or movie theater, you could transfer from your cold wallet to your hot wallet enough for these activities. And a password would be enough in the terminal. And some kind of token to serve as proof of access. Maybe your iris, your tongue, your fingerprints, your speech.
