Here are some privatekeys Leading to same addresses
there are different ways of representing numbers: but it doesn't mean we have dozens of number one! we only have 1 value that we use different encodings for it to represent it (numeral, roaman, text, hex, binary). what you did here was only to change the encoding. and what you did here is just playing with modular arithmetic. neither one of these have anything to do with this topic: collision.

Surely when the weak hands are flushed we can say that bitcoin right now is held by people who actually believe in it (and traders) but that doesn't mean it will continue to go up, first we need to make sure the whales who are trying to make money doesn't sell.
you forgot about another group, an important and powerful group actually. the traders who sold before the drop or when it was starting to happen and are now waiting for the "signal" which would be any kind of rise above a certain level before these people put that money they got out, back in.

My hypothesis is that a primary hurdle that keeps people from seeing bitcoin as an option for their savings strategy is the learning curve with safe storage combined with a lack of consumer protection offerings for those that are willing to sacrifice their financial liberties for custodial security.
something like this is only suitable for those people who are either opposed to change or are incapable of changing so they tend to try and stick to their old ways (handing over their money and control to a centralized entity). but the thing is, such people don't even come near bitcoin because it is scary to them due to all the differences it has. i am not even sure if they deserve to own any bitcoin though. people come to bitcoin when they want financial sovereignty otherwise they are better off with banks and fiat.

adding a quantum resistant signature scheme could be done with a soft fork,
quantum resistant signatures should be implemented when we fear quantum computers are close to breaking ECDSA. that means this switch should be first enforced and second be irreversible. in other words nobody should be able to still make ECDSA signatures anymore after that change since we would be consider it weak at that point.... ... this means it should be a hard fork not a soft fork.

Foo is going to launch Bar means Bar is not decentralized! in this case an idiot who doesn't know anything about cryptocurrencies launching something that requires a lot of knowledge of the topic is not only going to be centralized but also shitty. he will probably run an ICO and raise scam some money from idiots. crypto expert john mcafee
LOL, what's next? CSW is satoshi?

sometimes people who have large number of merits to spend find someone who has a lower rank and deserves receiving merits but hasn't received that much from others. they go through their history and give a bunch to the posts they think deserve that merit. it is actually more common than you'd think specially among merit sources (don't know if dabs is one or not). i checked some of these posts, i think they did deserve the merits they received.

This guy has some interesting projections of how long this move could take. It could take months and we could see the $5,000s or $6,000s first. So my eyes are still set on $20K but I'm not sure when. yeah, it was interesting but i usually tend to avoid trying to predict how long a downtime is going to last because most of the times it either ends sooner or later than what was predicted but rarely on point. i am more curious about what comes next specially when it is a FOMO

i am always fascinated by the FOMOs that keep happening in bitcoin market. earlier this year i created two topics on two different occasions about it the small inital FOMO in first stage and another FOMO with a bigger leg up. with the current situation where price has come down below the $10k support line and the fact that a lot of weak hands were flushed out, i am guessing pretty soon after the drama ended we are going to see another FOMO market shape up bringing in a lot of money like a tsunami. this time if the momentum could build up we could see $20k before the end of the year. what do you think about the size of the upcoming FOMO? can we see a bubble in short term this time or will it be like last time (small just to kick start the rise)?

i would call them "forgetful" not "short sighted" because most of them seem to have forgotten that we had a very similar situation not so long ago this very year. and it is more common that you'd think. drops like this, out of nowhere without anybody ever predicting them (don't confuse those who always call for a drop as predictors). and there are certain people who always react the same way with panic as if it is the end!

Fair point, but it's a complex issue. How do you address this:
certain things can not be solved, and in software development having bugs is a part of the deal. all we can do is have higher test coverage testing all the edge cases we can find but in the end there will be some nasty unexpected behavior in the code that nobody could foresee.

things that you can not do in bitcoin: * you can't set a range for how many coins others send you. the only thing possible is creating a transaction using SIGHASH_SINGLE | ANYONECANPAY to your address (like a donation thing) and set the fixed amount you want to receive * you can not set a range of time during which people could send you money! the only thing possible is locking outputs to only be spendable after a certain time * you can't force where a transaction output can be sent to. as long as the person has the private key they can send the coins anywhere they like.
i am not really sure what you are really trying to achieve but it seems like your only option as it was said is using a middleman with 2of3 multisig because the conditions you are setting can not be translated into any kind of script.

i don't think there has been any new shitcoins in 2019 that were created by copying bitcoin. you'd have to search google for "list of bitcoin forks" to find them though. i have this site bookmarked: http://forks.net/list/Bitcoin which has a list of all the forks, it doesn't seem to have anything that occured in 2019 unless it wasn't updated.

to be honest these numbers look good but at the same time look like the guess-works that people use to throw numbers at each other and call it "speculation" and it works both ways, it is not always them guessing doomsday and drops!
the trend line these numbers form are very similar to the data we had in the past if you extrapolate it to today which is why i said it looks good but again you can't use the past to predict the future. bitcoin today is growing so much faster compared to bitcoin in the past like 4 years ago when it was getting ready for the big rise to the new ATH like it is today. so we can't expect the same rate here too.

Upon reaching a goal (score) the developer would pay money to the user. Let's say that everything could be divided into different objectives: in some of these the developer would pay the user in money in others in time of use of the bot. It is obvious that this strategy could be used in the bot immediately and always inside the bot the user could sell it to other users. It might work?
i don't think you can find that many traders who would be interested in something like this. for traders who have the opportunity to make a lot of money, this type of small payments is not really attractive. if they want a bot they want one that has certain highly advanced features that are easy to use.

the main danger that you can mainly see it nowadays when it comes to investing in this market is about being misled by others. unfortunately there is a ton of bad information out there, specially on platforms that are easy to create content and there is some sort of incentive like Youtube. you see a lot of people giving bad advice, hyping some shitcoin, ... to the beginners and lead them into making bad investment decisions and lose money. as a beginner they need to always stay away from these types of people.

that is basically the gist of what everyone who isn't an altcoin bag holder has been saying for over a year now. it is good to see others are also catching on. this past 1.5 years of altcoin purging with all their dumps without recovery have been good to wake a lot of people up and make them realize that things such as "dominance" is just a meaningless number that is not showing what their name suggests.

In today's market it happen because response market about BAKKT.
it can not be because of Bakkt because the timing doesn't match. the drop happened today where the price broke below the level that it was supposed to stay above (meaning $9k). but Bakkt has been open for more than 2 days now and if the drop was supposed to be because of it, then it should have happened the day it opened up.

ever since we entered 2018, anything below $10k has been an excellent chance to buy bitcoin. at the beginning of the year we had the ridiculous luck of seeing price as low as $3k before it jumped back up to normal price levels of $10k and above and that luck is being repeated but this time it will be a small size and short time one. of course if you are a day trader you always want to wait for the bottom but as an investor you should be picking up bitcoin at these prices because discounts like this don't repeat again.

units of use of a bot trading as payment
your question raises a ton of other questions! what exactly is the payment in? bitcoin? an altcoin? an ICO token? who is making the payment to whom? the developer to the user or other way around? is the bot already built and is it about to be built?

did Bitmex start working yesterday or was it around for a very long time? if it were the reason for this drop then it should have caused a lot more drops more commonly than this. remember that this is the first major unpredictable drop that we had in 10 months. the last one was the drop below $6k tha happened last year out of nowhere. things like Bitmex, high leverage, all the other drama with hashrate, etc are always there they sometimes contribute to the falls but they are never the reason.
