Welcome back. Declarative sentences are properly punctuated with periods; please learn how to use them. Did you find out why your account was hacked in the first place ? Did you used an easy password or you told your password to any friend etc ?
Keep a strong password and hopefully no one will be able to hack your account.
reused password ( onion) of secure password managers for you. Bitwarden may be easiest, if you are accustomed to being dependent on cloud stuff like all of the cool kids who obdurately refuse to end sentences with periods. Bonus: It is open-source; and if you want, you can run your own server instead of depending on theirs! If you have reused passwords, then you should register at have I been pwned? (not a typo). What you thus discover should properly scare you into never, ever reusing passwords again. <blink>:emoji: Never reuse passwords! :emoji: :emoji: :emoji: </blink>HTH, HAND.
P.S., “Star Platinum” gets style points. It is so much more aesthetic than the usual names that people use for “please unlock my account” alts! +1 merit to the account’s first post so that Star Platinum can rank up to Jr. Member. That gives you a basic signature, personal text, and image posting privileges. Let your imagination run wild with the possibilities of a Star Platinum account! |

The enormous server farms that power Google, Facebook, Amazon (and all AWS customers), Netflix, Twitter, Microsoft (including Github), Cloudflare, every Y Combinator startup, Palantir, the NSA, etc. are all destroying... everything.
So when you die, who gets your Bitcoin? LOL, Bolshevik Buffet wants for you not to think about that. Live for yourself, carpe diem, you lonely little individual atom floating in a sea of talking monkeys.
Crypto?
Shortest JJG post ever: Wordy-man ATL! That’s it: Bitcoin is dead. Selling all my coins now... |

quantum-computers are way off, but 2^256 will be cracked soon with off the shelf hw. The so called block-chain, is just what we call a linked-list in computer science, 70 year old tech nowadays. Yup, grade F transparent troll. Yawn. He may have better luck spreading rumours that nullius works for the NSA. (From my desk in Fort Meade.) Ft.Meade is where NSA created BTC, and SHA256, and SECp256k1, so what's your point? Grade F for reading comprehension. Sigh. I miss literacy. A Species of Atavism.— [...] An I be wont to wax sesquipedalian, I’ll retreat to the phrontistery for to desiderate lost epochs of literacy. Alas, I must spell it out for you: Next, you will accuse me of being some sort of a plant.Oh, my! We are converging on that already: Do you realize that you haven't said anything? "Not Impressive" is a generic bot sentiment response, which is the case of 99% of the comenters on this site, its usually "HODL", or "HATER", so you are original.
Beware. My originality puts me above the paygrade of generic bots: I troll forums on my lunchbreak from work at Tailored Access Operations. I already pwned your computer, and you know it.  Moreover, I regret to inform you that you have essentially accused yourself of being a bot: "Not Impressive" is a generic bot sentiment response, If you had reading comprehension skills above the level of a generic eight-year-old, then you would have noticed that I was tossing your own words right back at you: With highlighting and [bracketed red annotations] added to assist you in parsing this:I'm a math-physics person, I used to write crypto-software for commercial markets, I'm not at all impressed by bitcoin, or its lying promoters. Not impressive: You [a liar] calling other people liars. Thus, per your own logic, your generically bot-like claim of being “not at all impressed” is PROOF that you are a generic bot who woke up after 28 months to launch a wave of troll attacks throwing nonsensical FUD on Bitcoin. Quod erat demonstrandum.Now, please be advised that my English-language tutoring is not free. My usual rate is 0.01 BTC/hour, billable in fifteen-minute increments.

There is where nullius starts to write long essays about heirs. This is where nullius starts to refer to himself in the third person. This is where nullius starts to quote himself.
....
This is where my scroll wheel goes into overdrive.... This is where you delude yourself that I give a fuck. Fess up nullius! That right there was comedy gold (rat poison) 2. Eh, it was comedy BCH BSV. Comedy Bitcoin was my depriving his scroll wheel of a long Nullian essay. His scroll wheel’s love of my words was sufficiently important enough for his keyboard to post about it; but the love is unrequited. |

Gold should sound decent in theory, but knowing that bitcoin — an obviously far more superior asset already exists, it would suck to be a gold holder. We've come to a point that I would say that bitcoin is a "safer" bet than gold today (in the long-term, of course).
In case my link answering the titular question was too subtle... Re: Bitcoin or Gold?...I see gold and Bitcoin as complementary. Each has properties that the other physically cannot have. I frankly don’t understand why some (not all) Bitcoiners feel a need to deprecate gold. To answer your question, I don't think that Bitcoin Vs Gold is even needed. Both can coexist as a store of value and even though I am not willing to exchange my BTC for gold, I certainly understand the people that prefer gold. ^^^ This.
P.S., I suggest ignoring the sockpuppeting troll and his stupid games. He has no talent for predictions; he just makes a lot of noise. Back to the topic... |

Does the exchange take BTC free of charge from the blockchain? Someone sells those bitcoins to the exchange. There is where the "Liquid pool" comes from. If there is a dearth of the sellers then the price of bitcoin will go up and the exchange might stop bitcoin to other conversions for a period of time. That’s not how traditional (centralized) exchanges work. Look up the concept of an order book.With “liquidity pools”, it seems that you are thinking of defi AMMs; but those aren’t exchanges in the same sense that OP is (un)thinking about. Centralized accountless exchanges may to some extent act as market makers selling their own inventory on both sides of a (very wide) spread, but IIUC most don’t (or only do to a limited degree). Exchanges are just mediators of users that buy/sell bitcoin. So if you buy bitcoin, you're buying coins that other people are selling on the platform, and vice versa. Exchanges just put in a small transaction fee so they can profit off the trades. The same reason how when you buy something from eBay, you're buying it from other people; and eBay just adds a fee for their profit.
^^^ This. |

What “crashing”? My ticker still says that 1 BTC = 1 BTC. The market is boring. $1 is now hovering around 2k sats, and €1 is above 2400 sats, so I guess the shitcoin bulls are getting a reprieve before their stupid fake money continues sinking. But it’s a bull trap, I tell you. As a permabear, I think that this temporary bubble is a great time to DuPM your central bank shitcoins. GET OUT while you can still get some real money! |

getrawtransaction returns the transaction data of a given transaction id.
Is there a API call which returns all transactions for a given bitcoin address?
If not, which framework do you recommend to build such a query / database?
I presume that you want to be able to query any arbitrary address, even one not in any local wallet. A node does not itself maintain the necessary indices, which are relatively large and resource-intensive. Try installing this locally, and then calling its API: https://github.com/Blockstream/esploraThe Esplora API can also be used on blockstream.info. For example, I see (JSON) ( onion) that this puzzle is not solved! |

This is where nullius really stops following the Wall before it eats all his time again.
 I am really only here until Bunny makes Ava do Bitcoin so that I can make Ava go make me a sandwich some heirs, whose inheritance must be protected from the taxation predation of Buffet the Bolshevik. (Wow, it is weird what happens when two trains of thought get crossed this way. Albeit not so weird as the criss-crossing of genetic recombination through a Merkle-Damgård construction. —But enough about my Bitcoin fetish. After I am done hashing Ava’s elliptic curves, I will keep our “communications” private by teaching her the Chacha20.) |

Taking stuff away from successful people to give it to less successful people is called socialism. Just because you can beat someone up and take their money doesn't mean it's a good way to run a society. It's immoral and has never worked in any country that has tried it. It doesn't help the poor people, it just hurts the rich people. Poor people will always be poor because they don't know how to be rich or are just unmotivated.
And what about generational wealth, you cool with putting a tax on "dead" money (when someone uber rich dies)? Or is successful a term that applies to anyone you are associated with, no matter what they did to generate that success? There is where nullius starts to write long essays about heirs. This is where nullius starts to refer to himself in the third person. This is where nullius starts to quote himself. Why do you suppose that, for example, Warren Buffet advocates for the Marxist death tax—whilst he simultaneously assures Berkshire Hathaway shareholders that upon his death, only about 1% of his estate will be liquidated to pay taxes? Oh, yes: The death tax is a weapon of mass destruction against small, family-owned businesses, and also against independent family farms. It is a device to keep BigCorps at the top, and to prevent wealth from accumulating at the bottom and the middle. This is where nullius really stops following the Wall before it eats all his time again. |

...whenever I go to a strip joint. Ah, Bunny. I’ve been intending to inquire, who is this? I am asking for a friend. He is performing academic sociological research on the bodily semiotics employed by whatever porn stars are popular nowadays. For the sake of science, please sauce this girl. Thanks. * nullius trolls WO “for the articles”. A youngish Ava Addams. Thanks. So, does she do Bitcoin? Forget what I said about “science”. This is the important question!  |

This is the wall observer thread, not the Bolshevik agitator one. I suggest giving Reddit a try.
Daily reminder that Bolshevism is a bankers’ scheme to trick poor people into begging for slavery, whilst giving emotionally oversensitive bourgeois pseudointellectuals ( e.g., Redditors) a dose of feel-good “empathizing” with the working class whom they secretly hate. |

Anyone advocating for more taxes has been watching too much MSNBC. It's not about feeling sympathy for people who have billions, it's about people thinking the government is their daddy.
Do you think billionaires are swimming around in a pool of gold coins or pallets of $100s? Nearly all of the wealth that people are complaining about is on paper. Jeff Bezos owns a bunch of Amazon shares. If you raise the capital gains tax, he'll just never sell those shares. If the capital gains tax was lowered however, he might sell those shares and invest that money in some other endeavor which could create millions of new jobs. I'm betting the guy who created Amazon is a lot smarter than anyone in the government.
Nearly all the wealth in the world is invested in companies and profits are reinvested in other companies to create more and more jobs. Taxes stifle growth. All taxes are a deterrent to economic activity.
The Government is not your baby daddy and the more money the government takes, the less economic activity, jobs etc.
Anyone advocating too little taxes on extreme wealth is a puppet for extremely wealthy people. I mean seriously. Look at the common good. Be a patriot. Care for your fellow countrymen. Also this trickle down shit has been debunked for ages. Anyone advocating taxes on extreme wealth is a delusionally foolish naïf. That quasi-Commie rhetoric about “the common good” is sucker-bait for commoners to embrace a system which taxes them. Not the extremely wealthy—who have armies of lawyers and accountants, plus political “connections” in the same sense that a master connects to his dog with a leash. The capitalist system is fundamentally corrupt, it is stacked in favour of the extremely wealthy, and raising taxes will not change that! Why do you suppose that, for example, Warren Buffet advocates for the Marxist death tax—whilst he simultaneously assures Berkshire Hathaway shareholders that upon his death, only about 1% of his estate will be liquidated to pay taxes? Oh, yes: The death tax is a weapon of mass destruction against small, family-owned businesses, and also against independent family farms. It is a device to keep BigCorps at the top, and to prevent wealth from accumulating at the bottom and the middle. The same principles work with income tax, capital gains tax, etc. That was only the first example that came to mind. More apropos here, income and capital gains taxes can be used to control the little Bitcoiners whilst investment bankers and Wall Street hedge fund managers have nothing to worry about.
Hit-and-run. Hi. Bye. |

it gives me such a headache that bitcoin core refuses to raise the blocksize. Their main argument is to keep the cost of running a node cheap due to space but this makes transactions so expensive that people are priced out.
Bitcoin at this point is a failure. Yes the price increases but its unusable for most of the world. Its why many OG bitcoiners like roger ver support bch.
Maybe nullius should read the whitepaper and see what bitcoin was meant to be.
Ooh, a Brand New sockpuppet just for me! I’m not impressed by these children’s games. P.S., yes, I have read the Bitcoin whitepaper. Also, I’m poor (an open secret scattered in my post history), and I am not priced out of Bitcoin; I use it just fine. If its current performance is “a failure”, then I want for it to fail some more, please! |

So much wasted time and words written without any weight, meaning or real research. You seriously need to think about asking some kind of medical assistance from shrink if you are really thinking what you wrote, especially when this is coming from someone who distributed malware in this forum posts from 2018  It's impossible to talk with someone with closed mind who don't want to listen so I will not reply anything from this member and just save earth and CO2 with ignore button. He’s not so good at making predictions, either; see below. He does seem to excel at making lots of noise so as to waste people’s time. Spend time on his posts? That is your limited lifetime draining away! He is literally KILLING YOU with his GREED for attention! https://archive.is/4sdxf#selection-7341.0-7341.169bitcoin will fall below ripple in cap in 2019, the writing is on the wall, just like lotus-123, being first doesn't make you a winner forever, just once at the beginning
That was your last post before your account went to sleep for 28 months. It “ woke up” on the same day as the market dipped, 2021-04-18, when you unwisely started dumping crap in a topic that had my attention. Anyway, as seen above, you have no aptitude for making economic predictions. Moreover, you have previously predicted that SHA-256 would be broken by 2020. If you predict that the sun will rise in the east, I think that I need to double-check! I'm a math-physics person, I used to write crypto-software for commercial markets, I'm not at all impressed by bitcoin, or its lying promoters. Not impressive: You calling other people liars. quantum-computers are way off, but 2^256 will be cracked soon with off the shelf hw. The so called block-chain, is just what we call a linked-list in computer science, 70 year old tech nowadays. Yup, grade F transparent troll. Yawn. He may have better luck spreading rumours that nullius works for the NSA. (From my desk in Fort Meade.) |
