I totally second that.
In this kind of service, impeccable user support is of uttermost importance.
Reliability over protocol must be accompanied to reliability when there are problems, big or small.
I don't know if Gazeta was referring to me, but I experienced the same kind of problems reported by Gazeta. Only with less emails back and forth from WW ( and also having a smaller stash over there).

Twitter is mad at the following:



Apparently, in PayPal USD the issuer can enter an “asset protection mode” and “block” and “seize” assets.
In addition to that it can raise the max issued limit without any problems.

A lot of criticism about these features: “Bitcoin has fixed max issuance”, “Not your Keys, not your coins", "transaction censorship!" "centralisation attack vector!"


Well... what did you expect?
If PayPal just wanted a cheap, reliable, censorship-resistant way of allowing their customer to transfer economic value, they would have implemented... Lightning.

I have just tried the TOR version and saw no changes from last time.
Saying "TOR works just fine" is an obvious overstatement.

It needs further investigation, but apparently, this is the token:



There are many fake versions, but this one appears to be held at an address labelled as Paxos.


PayPal entered the stablecoin market.
Paolo Ardoino is not impressed:



I easily can see why that: I guess targeted markets are totally different: Traders for USDT and casual holders and spenders for Py USD

In critical news Today, PayPal decided to launch its stablecoin.


PayPal becomes first major fintech to launch dollar-backed stablecoin


It's an important news to me.
First, because this kind of issuance by private money has already been frowned upon by regulators, think about Meta so that it can be an acid test for regulators: has the stance changed since the Meta experiment?

Secondly, with high-interest rates, collecting liquidity for free and investing in Treasuries can boost PayPal revenues.

This is the contract.




Of course, this is not an isolated venture of PayPal in cryptocurrencies, as they have been quite active in the past, as you may recall.

PayPal to allow cryptocurrency buying, selling and shopping on its network

I am on the move today; I will update this OP with more relevant information later.

Guarda cosa hanno fatto con i due che hanno fregato soldi a Bitfinex. Hanno passato i loro satoshi in tutti i mixer possibili, eppure…. Se c’è l’interesse ed il movente riescono a seguirti…

Apparently, linear times doesn't apply to a certain class of people humans AI entities

Scusa ma cosa stai tramando Babo? Dai svelaci.
Comunque concordo, LoyceV è un’incredibile risorsa per il forum.

Beh, anche cloudflare serve a quello no? Una lotta eterna tra chi attacca e chi è attaccato.
Comunque so che Theymos può gestire manualmente eccezioni, prova a contattarlo nel caso.
Per quanto mi riguarda, l’unico bot che ho, passa regolarmente ora.

Apparentemente il dramma di cloudflare ha messo fuori uso uno dei bot che ddmrddmr USA per aggiornare la proprio a dashboard.
Probabilmente quindi ritarderà la pubblicazione di qualche settimana.
Questa volta avró una scusa vera per essere in ritardo.

Magari mi porto avanti con le altre cose… ma la parte “core” è per forza di cose bloccata.
Vi terrò aggiornati.

Don't forget there are a lot of investors that cannot buy Bitcoin because of restrictive investment mandates, for example, which instead could buy an ETF. This is unlocking a significant investment mass to Bitcoin.

You are welcome. I am gladly helping you provide value for the forum.


I plead guilty to that, I took the initiative to a visually appalling sorting and, of course, because when dealing with a high number of coins, the precision to the last satoshi could be an overkill.

In the Spreadsheet, look at cell V12.
The formula is meaning :"Format cell G12 as a number with thousand separator , decimal separator . and 8 decimal places (0 instead of # forces to display 8 decimal places even ith redundant 0's).
Try to experiment yourself with this if you want to change.

Ragarding the error with BB code be sure to past all the green cells, included the opening command [ table ] and the closing one [ / table]. In case you are still experiencing the problem, please sent me the code via PM so I can try to figure out what is happening.


I almost stopped using Excel for personal uses, and I am using Sheets only. THey are ubiquitous, platform agnostic, and there is a complete versioning of the file, being able to revert every single version you want to restore (File=>Version History=>See Version History=>Click on the desired Version=>Restore This Version

Don’t get me wrong, but in the above picture you were doing exactely that: processing Pyton code in your AI in order to make the dashboard even better.

Since when AI sunbathe?

Take your convolute exponential linear time.

Ne ha fatti cosa? Bitcoin o Wallets?
Comunque occhio, che i moderni segugi di Chainanalysis riescono a “beccare” tutti i wallets che si originano tramite self transfer verso altri wallets. Come recenti casi di cronaca dimostrano, del resto.

I didn't suggest shorting MSTR outright, I said shorting vs Buying GBTC.
In case of a Bitcoin really post ETF approval, you want to be long GBTC, not Microstrategy. The latter will always have a (negative) overhead over bitcoin valuation. So there will no point holding it once an ETF is approved.

I see the merit dashboard hasn’t been updated yet this week.
I guess someone is taking a well-deserved vacation!

Happy holiday @ddmrddmr, and thank you for your relentless effort toward the forum!

I guess you can find a lot of answers to your questions navigating the resources I collected in the linked thread:

5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin

Hope it helps.

Thank you again, supreme leader, I have been worried not hearing for you, and I screamed FLÜGGÅӘNK∂€ČHIŒßØLʃÊN in terror when I became conscious again.
Glad to know the Supreme Leader is there, showing the way.


The Queen of Foxes guides us.
The Queen of Foxes teaches us.
The Queen of Foxes protects us.
In your light, we thrive.
In your mercy, we are sheltered.
In your wisdom, we are humbled.
We live only to serve.
Our lives (+wives, + holes) are yours.

All the corrections and modifications have been made.
Here is the link to the spreadsheet

You can open it, view it, and if you want to modify anything, select "Make a copy" under the "File" menu. In such a way, you don't even need to communicate anything to me, nor will I ever be able to know when/if/how you made a local copy.

This is embarrassing. Believe or not, I did the previous correction via mobile, in an effort of productivity that apparently ended up in failure.
Let me deal with some IRL related issues, and I will correct them.
 I also thought I can share with everybody the spreadsheet used to create that table. I think there are no downside to this (potential upside: someone find a smarter way of doing what I do).
