Good catch. But outside of the loan scam can't figure out what the endgame is other then being a troll. I mean, yes trolling is the endgame for some people but it seems to be they are putting in more work then needed for it at this point. Will have to get some time and tag them all later. -Dave |

The main point is that cloudflare stores your TLS certificate for traffic inspection, giving them the ability to access your data while transiting their servers.
So any traffic going through them can been monitored by them.
And the missing 2nd part:
Also since they DO have your TLS certs AND all your traffic their is nothing stopping them from putting something else in place of what you have it would STILL identify as you.
THEY control your DNS and THEY control your TLS. They can be you and do whatever they want. Want to block all coinjoins they can do it. No, nobody would loose BTC but IMO it's still not worth it.
Ever here with this forum I have to have faith that I am talking to the real bitcointalk.org if it's not there is no way for me to know.
Isn't this a problem with DNS in general though? Nothing can be verified unless it's digitally signed by a private key that you know. There are 2 issues that you are confusing. 1) As with any DNS provider unless you are running it yourself they can point your site wherever. BUT and this is the important BUT you usually know were your site is. i.e. if I was hosting davef.com I would know that it is at public IP 1.2.3.4 However, since cloudflare does not tell you which front end servers they are using to point back then yo don't know where they are pointing your site. 2) You then combine that with the fact that they have all your TLS certificates they can easily MITM you. Once again, I am not saying there is any chance of loss of funds but there is a 100% chance of them blocking things from working by running their own coordinator and at random times pointing btcpay.kruw.io to their server instead of yours. It will look like yours (since you were nice enough to give them all your TLS keys) but it would not act like yours. And people would never know. All they would know is that something didn't work. -Dave |

So any traffic going through them can been monitored by them. Why does that matter since the coordinator doesn't receive any sensitive data from users? And they also block IPs based on known TOR exit nodes and VPNs so some automated things will not work when all of a sudden your wallet is asked to do the are you a human CAPTCHA
Yep, I ran into that issue when setting it up, but I added a challenge exception for Tor. Sorry working remote and missed a copy & paste from my phone to the PC. What I was trying to put in was: The main point is that cloudflare stores your TLS certificate for traffic inspection, giving them the ability to access your data while transiting their servers.

For the moment, guardians are also advised not to use xyz domain names.
Dave's view / opinion: I would stay away from any domain ltd that is run by a for profit company. They don't really care who registers what and what they do with it. And Team Internet (the company that controls the .xyz domain) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Team_Internet seems to be at least to me not doing anything when their domain holders spam. Which leads to blocks. Just my view, from running some front end mail servers but I would say about 1/3 of the TLDs they have I block at the edge. And that it probably about 3/4 of my block list. With that being said I do personally have some domains with their TLDs but I am aware of the fact that with all my blocks I am still one of the smaller ones and some places lock them and a few other registrars out at the 90%+ level. -Dave |

[Note, this is not just them any CDN that is using your certs instead of theirs can do that]

You should also do a traceroute https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TracerouteSince you are showing high latency a traceroute may help you figure out where the issue is between you and the pool. Local network or local provider may be fixable. Something past there and there is not a lot you can do. -Dave |

Looking up the domain:
btcpay.kruw.io.
172.67.72.23
btcpay.kruw.io.
104.26.13.68
btcpay.kruw.io.
104.26.12.68
172.67.72.23 = cloudflare.com
104.26.13.68 = cloudflare.com
104.26.12.68 = cloudflare.com
So to use your privacy service you have to go though cloudflare.com.
Not a good look.

Kruw is constantly making fake scam accusations to everyone who ever joined any mixing campaign in the past, and he didn't provide a single proof for his claims.
...
No scam accusation against me, I guess I don't rate in his book. But, seriously to all does it matter at this point? I think a lot of us are at fault by just leaving him neutral ratings. Perhaps a bunch of red trust and he will leave. Shrug, not really that important since I don't think that many people are actually using wasabi anymore. -Dave |

Think of it as the address of your house
1 1St Street is no more or less safe an address then 2872 Jean Baptiste Point du Sable Lake Shore Drive
What makes a BTC address safe is how you handle the private keys and the devices you use them on.
Accessing a web wallet on a public PC = Not Safe
Using a hardware wallet with a PC that only you control = Safe
There are a lot of things in between those 2 with different levels of safety. But the actual public address does not matter to safety at all.

Lot of 6 domains.
Have them up for sale at namesilo for some big $ but at this point would like to move them as a bulk lot so willing to take a lot less then what I have them up for.
Make an real and decent offer on the lot of them and they are yours.
Since they are up for sale elsewhere there is a very very very small chance that one might sell but I will pull the sale if anyone here shows interest.

Another thought. There also may be times you have to sell this way.
Estate sales, bankruptcy auctions, other things that require a public bid in with a known entity.
Just one of those things to consider that it's not always cut and dry. An estate and the executor of someones will can't give a coin to me and tell me to sell it here.
It would have to go through a place like the OP mentioned. Regulated, tracked, secure, etc.

Seeking a genuine partner for an initial loan to build trust, then an ongoing loan provider to assist in loans from $5k - $100k (0btc - 2btc approx) for ongoing mutually beneficial collaboration, as i know other parties interested in crypto loans in the UK.
Is this raising a red flag just for me? The OP is looking for a loan that he will pay off and thus gain confidence based on which he will ask for larger sums in the future. At the same time, he knows many people who would be happy to take a loan...  No, to mo it looks like the OP is convinced that something they have is worth a lot more then it really is. The collateral they keep looking to use is worth at most a few thousand $ and that is being VERY generous. Kind of like the person who has a 1976 Dodge Dart that does not run with a destroyed transmission and the interior has had a bunch of squirrels living in it with the body being 99% rust but wants $30000 since it's a 'classic' car. -Dave |

if you have a look at the transaction it is an LND channel closing transaction. rbf is allowed. pb is the wallet in use is the one from Lnd (not bitcoin core) so some command line related to bitcoincli wallet are not usable.
i don't know how to rbf it... i have important funds there ... can you help ?
RBF isn't going to be simple because the channel's remote node need to co-sign the transaction. And CPFP in Bitcoin Core should be done manually since there's no specific command to directly create a CPFP transaction. Good news is it supports " coin control" with send command to do that ( CPFP). Example: - Find the UTXO created by that unconfirmed transaction with: listunspent 0 command. ("0" is important to include unconfirmed coins)
- Create a PSBT using send command with this format:
bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=<wallet_name> -named send outputs="{\"<your_own_address>\": <amount>}" inputs="[{\"txid\":\"<txid>\",\"vout\":<vout>,\"sequence\":4294967293}]" fee_rate=30
Fill up the inputs field <> with the information from your unconfirmed transaction, you can edit the sequence if you want to disable opt-in rbf flag.
Set the "fee_rate" to your desired value that can bump the child and parent's overall fee rate. (example below) - Depends on the wallet encryption, the above should be enough to broadcast the CPFP transaction and it'll result with "true" together with the txid.
If "false" (wallet is locked); sign the PSBT using walletprocesspsbt <PSBT> command. (requires to unlock the wallet to sign either command) - Lastly, broadcast the signed raw transaction with sendrawtransaction <RAW_Transaction> command.
Sample send ( Regtest): bitcoin-cli --regtest -rpcwallet=descriptor_test -named send outputs="{\"bcrt1qs85jl5ew84q8uk9gz4l4u6glz5cgdn26fm4e4c\": 2.0}" inputs="[{\"txid\":\"e3c7bc999f1f47bb6f0f47a6a41fcbe638c188f5249b7aa1858c535a0f9c2176\",\"vout\":1,\"sequence\":4294967293}]" fee_rate=30Several web font ends for LND such at ride the lightning allow you to do this. Or at least they did, it's been a while since I looked but you could CPFP an onchain TX. The other option is a paid accelerator. Less work but costs money. -Dave |

Not a big deal at all there are 1000s if not 10s of 1000s of people sitting on these 50BTC blocks and also the 25BTC blocks after the 1/2ing back then.
Someone could have decided to retire. They are now 14 years older and my need the money for something.
Could have been trading and selling for years and have millions and millions and millions of dollars sitting in their bank and totally forgot about this block and moved something found an old PC and went, oh yeah I think there is some BTC on this, probably just 50BTC or 100BTC so just pocket change but lets see.
It's a very very very (add a lot more very) minor amount in daily trading. which is over 350000BTC

It's the cost of having someone else do it vs the cost of doing it yourself.
Don't go to Honda to change your oil for $79.99 you can get the oil and do it yourself for under $40.
Take you coin, ship it to the auction house, wait for money.
vs
Take pictures, post here, wait for it to sell, ship it, hope it gets there with no issues.
Not saying one is better then the other or one is wrong vs the other.
Real life example:
I could have sold my last motorcycle on the private market and probably gotten an extra $750 to $1000.
Would have take a couple of weeks and hours and hours of my time.
Left home 9 AM on Saturday, dropped it off at the dealer, got a check (that I knew was good since it was from a dealer vs private) and has the check in the bank and was back home before 10AM
Didn't clean it, didn't change the oil, almost didn't make it there since it had so little gas in the tank.
Now if I can only find someone to take the Ryker I would be good.

Do you think miners work for free?
Miners has an operational cost, and giving away their Block reward is not an option. And your idea is too greedy, it will never happen, even if satoshi come with that idea for the community no one will follow it because it goes against decentralization.
Don't bother talk to OP, he use chatbot to generate this thread which contain vague and wrong technical details. Other member caught him using chatbot on his other thread. And i'm not sure he's aware existence of NiceHash (where you can rent hashrate) or massive mining farm owned by some company or rich individuals. Side note, if you look at the history of the domain he bought at auction v i s t o m a i l .com can can see that earlier in the year the scammer - thief hardworkinfamilyman had links to malware wallets on that site hxxps : // web.a r c h i v e .org/web/20240107232557/https://v i s t o m a i l.com/ (bottom of page) So all he is looking to do it steal some money and get some people to mine for him. If you are bored don't forget to report his domain to godaddy, with enough complaints they will take it down. -Dave |

Can you prove this, or your proof is that 'it was written in the article.' Things like this isn't new, just the way so many coins were called 'the next BTC,' all other crap / scam coins but you know how most of them ended.
Fixed your post a bit. The best way to look at it is the global market cap of all crypto is $2.25 trillion of that BTC is $1.2 trillion. So every other coin added together is LESS then the value of BTCI would be more concerned about ETH taking a dive as more and more people who are staking it @ 4% give or take https://www.blocknative.com/ethereum-staking-calculator sell it off and move to a CD making over 5% https://www.synchronybank.com/banking/cd/ Back of the napkin round number math. You need 32 ETH to stake and at the moment ETH is at $3400 so 32ETH * $3400 = $108800 Now $108800 * the 1% you are giving up is $1088 As ETH goes up in value your loss from staking @ 4% vs CD rates goes up as well. BTC will be fine. Alts will keep being crap alts. -Dave |

The US government has recently transferred seized 3940 BTC to Coinbase. According to the article they are going to sell those Bitcoins which confuses me as the SEC has been after cryptocurrency exchanges in the US, government while them to sell illegal Bitcoin. Don't you think it is a hypocrisy as in a way they are extorting money from exchange operating in the US in the name of fines. The next thing they are doing is using the same exchange to sell Bitcoin. Back in the olden days (2000) Sony sued and attacked itself: https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/sony-vs-sony/This is similar, since the government has clear cut rules about what they must do with seized property auction if it's legal, destroy if not, then they have to sell it off. They usually just have their own auctions, surprised they are now using Coinbase. But, since they are international it might just be to bring in more bidders then doing it themselves. Besides the US government is not anti BTC. It's anti not getting paid on the profits people make with BTCThey just want their cut of everything. https://www.newsweek.com/irs-asks-americans-report-income-illegal-activities-1871446-Dave |

Did it ever work while you had it?
If you got it used and it's not working then we have one more unknown. If it was working then stopped we at least know that it was good at some point.
