I just made a search to find the answer and couldn't find anything. But it seems that posts made in "Investigations" board are counted and you were right about that.
For instance, notblox1 has made this post in "Investigations" board. If you check his post count, you will see that his post count is equal to number of posts displayed in his post history. If posts made in "Investigations" board weren't counted, his post post count would be lower.

You are wrong here.
Posts made in "Serious Discussion" and "Ivory Tower" boards don't increase your post count at all.
For more information, see the post made by theymos.

Moderators use the "nuke" feature if they want all the posts to be deleted and the user banned, but I don't think this is what caused the wrong post count.
According to modlog, this user is the last user who has been nuked. As you see in his/her profile, the post count is correct.

I am not sure, but their post count may be corrected once theymos does a recount.
See the post I quoted below.




Although those posts have been counted, their activity is zero and that's why they haven't ranked up.

To add to mocacinno's reply:
Take note that when you want to make a transaction, usually you don't have the public key of the recipient at all.
For example, in a P2PKH (Pay To Public Key Hash) transaction, you make a transaction to a public key hash (which is known as address) and require the receiver to provide a valid signature to unlock the output.

I am not sure I have understood you correctly. Are you looking for previous versions of bitcoin?
If so, take note that bitcoin isn't like an application which new updates are released regularly by a company. 

Or you may be looking for list of bitcoin soft forks? Or maybe previous versions of bitcoin core?

In all casinos, there's a house edge which guarantee that the casino always win in the long run. This doesn't mean that the casino is a scam.
It's normal that the casino should be profitable for the owners.


They didn't scam you. You played at the casino and lost 2000 dollars. There is no one to blame.
As far as I know, the betting is provably fair on bitsler and there is no way to scam you with unfair bets. Someone correct me if I am wrong please.

I don't think there's any blockchain explorer working with public key. To see your balance and your transactions, you need to enter your address.
Take note that address is different from public key.


Again wrong.
For accessing your wallet, your private key is enough. Your public key is derived from the private key.

You can enter your bitcoin address in a blockexplorer like blockchair.com and see your balance and your transactions.
Take note that you should keep your private key privately and should never share it with anyone.

Yes, that's the problem.
I just tried it to see how it works. As you said, the exchange rate may change once you enter your receiving address.

I tested it with exchanging 0.2 BTC and 0.002 BTC to USDT.
Currently, they give 3929 dollars for 0.2 BTC and 34.34 dollars for 0.002 BTC.
Given that the current price of bitcoin which is around 20,040 dollars, the fee for trading 0.2 BTC is around 2% while it's around 14% for exchanging 0.002 BTC.  

Aren't you trying to exchange a very low amount?
I think there's a limit that the fee cannot be less than. That makes the fee higher in percentage when dealing with low amounts.

To add to what mentioned above by other users:
If you click on "+Merit" button on any post, you will see a message showing number of your sendable merit.

Here is the message.
You have received a total of X merit. This is what determines your forum rank. You typically cannot lose this merit. You have X sendable merit (sMerit) which you can send to other people.

No.

No.
Your ID number has nothing to do with your chance of winning.


The block number isn't used in the calculations at all. That's the block hash which is used. As mentioned in my previous post, the block hash is a 256 bit hexadecimal number and no one knows that until the block is mined. When the list of user IDs and their tickets numbers is published, the block hash is still unknown and it can't be in favor or against any user.  

Different rounds are completely independent from each other and the result of a lottery round has nothing to do with what happened in the previous rounds.
Take note that the block hash which is used for determining the winner is a 256 bit hexadecimal number and there is no way to know that until the block is mined.

The image you shared is irrelevant to your post.
Your post is about dust attack in bitcoin while you have shared an image from your TRON transactions.
As mentioned by Charles-Tim in the first reply, the dust limit for legacy addresses is 546 satoshi. That's 294 satoshi for segwit addresses and your transaction will be rejected, if you send lower than the limit.
In the image you shared, we see a TRON transaction sending 0.000012 TRX and I don't know whether there's any dust limit for TRON transaction or not.

There is no online wallet with the feature of "being safe from online theft".
If you want to be 100 secure and protect yourself from getting hacked completely, you should generate your wallet on an airgapped device and your keys never connect to the internet. Otherwise, there's always the possibility of getting hacked.
A good wallet allowing you to generate the wallet and spending the fund offline is Electrum. I doubt that's possible in Mycelium. Someone correct me if I am wrong, please.

Right. You shouldn't keep your bitcoin on an exchange and that's not only due to possibility of getting hacked.
You shouldn't keep your bitcoin on an exchange, because in this way, you give them full control over your bitcoin and they can freeze your fund at any time for any reason.
It's always recommended to use a non-custodial wallet or a hardware wallet.

Take note that you don't have to use a hardware wallet.
You can use electrum and if you want to be 100% secure, you should install it on an airgapped device.
If you want complete security and you can't use an airgapped device for any reason, you should use a hardware wallet.

If you use bitaddress offline on an airgapped device and not the online page, it's secure. (The source code can be accessed through github). But I still recommend you to use electrum.
If you use bitaddress, you have to backup a private key for each address. With electrum, you can backup numerous addresses with a seed phrase. Backing up a seed phrase is surely easier than backing up a private key.


You can download the source code from github and use bitaddress offline.

I doubt this is the case.
bc1q.....nsa which received 0.004 BTC is owned by OP's friend. OP said that it's shown in the wallet.
If someone else had access to the wallet, he wouldn't send 0.004 BTC to OP's friend. He would steal all the fund.

It's impossible that you make a transaction to an address and then a partial amount of the fund is sent to another address automatically.
The only person who can make a transaction from an address in the one who owns the private key of the address. No one else could make that transaction.


That's technically possible. But It's very unlikely that a hacker would do this.

Unfortunately, it seems so.
