pooya did not make that post to answer you and to earn merit. 

 

Visualize this impossible mission to brute force it. If you create your wallet properly, follow security basics and are not curious to try new cool wallet software, your wallet is safe as well as your Bitcoin.

Like this "Bitcoin - your money is secured by the laws of the universe"

You use your key to sign a message but you don't have to spend any sat, make any on-chain transaction to sign a Bitcoin message.

Yes. Not only with Bitcoin Core but also with other non-custodial wallets.

• How to sign a message?
• Stake your Bitcoin address here. Sign first, stake it there.

You misunderstood it. You sign, others will verify it and confirm your ownership.

Of course, you can try to sign a message and verify it too.

Your friend can only sign a message if you share your keys to him. It is risky because you will no longer the only ownership of that wallet. You and your friend co-own that wallet.

I gave you one merit that will be enough for you to rank up to Jr. member and be able to post images.

However, I reported lot of your posts with a reason "Old bump".

Maybe you don't know much about rule, let me share.

Everything on Earth can be used for criminal activities. There is black and white story and there are people who stay in different sides.

Do the world ban Internet because bad people use to to sell addictive drugs, terrorist and other bad things? They can not ban Internet because it is a necessary part of human civilization. They can try to censor contents on Internet, stricter regulations etc but no completely ban.

They want to protect their centralized and inflationary finance systems. They will try to make more regulations to control and reduce the power of Bitcoin and decentralized finance but they can not ban such hazard things entirely. By hazard I meant, in view of governments, not citizens.

Misunderstood perhaps.

I meant good posters deserve to rank up. Fast or slow, it depends on their contributions but if they don't actually make excellent contents, merit they received should be equal to their contribution quality.

It is like you make a charity to build up your reputation but if you shows it publicly, your reputation will increase faster but it does not actually make your reputation is better than others who do charity silently. In short term, make noise will increase it a bit but in long term, it is the same.

You never can verify what they actually do from their initiative announcement but you can verify their post quality.

It is part of the merit system issue. theymos watches it carefully and rarely to make significant changes in merit source number and merit source allocation. Over inflation of merit source and merit source allocation can create a new generation of pseudo-quality members who will turn to likely spammers after ranking up.

Please don't increase merit per post according to their same quality.

It is not fair for people years ago have to struggle to rank up and nowadays simply posting some merit-fishing initiatives and receive a lot of merit. I don't call them as shit posters, their post quality is good enough but let's keep their rank-up as natural as it should be. Don't distort your rules of meriting only because you feel you must keep your source-merit bag as emptiest as possible.

Some lessons from Satoshi Nakamoto aka satoshi in Bitcointalk forum are

• If you leak your identity on Internet, you lose it forever.
• Satoshi Nakamoto did aware importance of privacy and cared of it at beginning
• Satoshi's lesson. That topic is very inspirational. You should read it.

Price is 0.5 BTC, really? Are we back to the days of 2013 or earlier?  

Assume my account is sold for 0.5 BTC, buyer will hardly to use it to scam anyone with 0.5BTC or higher. If using this account to work, it requires so many times to get 0.5 BTC initial capital back. With Wasabi campaign I am promoting, it takes 25 months to earn 0.5 BTC. It's not a good deal.

So the 0.5 BTC offer for any trusted account is unreal. Seller is a scammer.  

SLP is an altcoin (token) so this discussion belongs to Altcoin discussion. Please move it there.

Issue with Axie Infinity is Play to Earn. This article is comprehensive about it, A Billion-Dollar Crypto Gaming Startup Promised Riches and Delivered Disasterp

They created something unsustainable at beginning and reacted too late to stop the death spiral and they will have to create a very different model for their games in order to get rid of sell pressure and bring SLP, AXS back to higher price. It won't be done in short term and success or not, it will depend not only on time, general crypto market but also on their solution to fix their model.

Keep up your improvement, weeks or months later, your post quality will be much different than now. I am sure if you continue like that, you will rank up not only to Full Member but also higher rank. Now, at least for me, I will keep watching and seeing you around but not meriting you immediately.  

Unnecessary to do so. Let's save your time, to improve yourself.

There are enough resources (sticky threads and other guide threads like yours) for newbies to read. Their problem is they ignore all of that at beginning. If they ignore forum rules, sticky threads, they will ignore yours as well.

Still 5 more months to the 4th anniversary of merit system and you guys have earned more than 6k to 11k merit.
What will happen next 10 years? 50k or 100k merit?

In future, when new members join forum, they will look at merit-earning beasts like merit rich gang. Even you guys stop posting, you will continue to receive merit from your past good posts.

It's not so hard if you know I only joined the forum a few weeks before you.

You can not please everyone but in this forum, if you make good posts constantly and don't give up from a good poster to a spammer, you will receive merit, a lot.

You made hundred of posts that are either one-liner or mostly in spam boards like Altcoin discussions, Trading, Economics. First your posts have low quality. Second, spam boards don't catch attention of merit sources.

Bear market is bad for bounty hunters but it is good time for builders. You can start to change yourself, learn more and build your account in bear market. You don't have to make an announcement that "I am changing myself". Just do it silently and people will realize your positive changes. Merit will come after a while.

I don't go to personal and national details but let's say general things.

Governments in different countries care more about their power, regime, etc. at first, and at last they look at their citizens. It's true from capitalism to communism or others, and from all aspects.

So citizens have to figure out ways to escape. One of solution and innovation is Bitcoin and blockchain that are initiated successfully for the first time by Satoshi Nakamoto. After more than 13 years, personal interest is still bigger than national interest but things are changing.

Gradually we are witnessing Bitcoin legal tender, CBDCs and global adoption.

Some criteria but no gold standard

• Don't join bounty as your first priority
• There are more things you can learn and find jobs in cryptocurrency industry that is growing with fastest rate ever in history
• If you join bounty, let's consider
  
  • Manager is trusted and experienced so that there is enough pre-research before the bounty launch
  • Is bounty reward pool sent and Escrowed by the manager? If manager receive reward pool before a bounty launch, participants will be paid for sure -- we're talking about non-scam manager who won't run away with reward pool
  • Next, another risk. Reward you receive won't have any value or very low value.
