Approaching the upcoming halving, Ledger is offering a purchase promo until April 15, 2024.
Maybe you should try not to promote stuff like this here, it is off-topic and has nothing to do with thebitcoinhole website topic. There are plenty of other topics for ledger hardware wallet to post their crap voucher promotions. I see new section was release for Bitcoin inheritance, so far there are five services listed: https://thebitcoinhole.com/inheritance@maxirosson Can you please check if some correction is needed for Safepal hardware wallet and coin control? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5490974.msg63929075#msg63929075

Sorry, but what Satochip is doing better? It is not problem for the back up technique used by Tangem cards to provide me the access to my stash in the case when the relevant SEED/PIN is completely forgotten/lost but what about Satochip cards?
They are doing everything better. First they are open source, that is huge advantage, and they have several option for hardware wallets, and as cold storage for seed words. You can literally buy blank java cards and load Satochip code, it will work perfectly. I don't like the fact that Satochip can be accessed via card reader. The Tangem's chip of 1x1 mm size is deep inside card.
That is silly statement to say about any card, they are all very thin, there is nothing ''deep'' in them. The closed source is their firmware but it is flashed only once (during cards production) and checked twice by Kudelski Security and Riscure companies. Any other upgrade/update is not possible.
Ok, you go ahead and trust those companies

Very cool Bitcoin Halving design, but why making it only Satodime when you could do the same for Satochip and Seedkeeper? I understand that Satodime can be used more as the bearer cold storage, but I think this design would work perfectly for Satochip. €35 for one card is not bad, especially when only 50 united will ever be released. I am sharing a few more real life images from this halving limited edition card:

I used FixedFloat.com (also known as ff.io) on March 26. They kept my funds, claiming it came from criminal activity, and refused to conduct the exchange or give a refund until I proved the funds were legit.
In actual fact, the crypto I sent them came from a refund from CoinGate (a legitimate crypto payment processor).
I remember similar case with fixedfloat was posted several months ago and they claimed that coins from user was also coming from criminal activity, but this guy showed proof that coins came from Coinbase exchange. After this I came to conclusion that if FixedFloat exchange is not a scam (this can be debated) than they are silly amateurs who don't know anything about blockchain analytics, and they are randomly confiscating coins from their customers. Getting hacked twice in the same way makes them a big joke, and I would avoid their service at all cost.

Why aren't the long codes in the post history displayed in the same way they appear in threads?
I never liked those stretched pages, mostly when I search post history, and I think it happened even with some signature codes that are not so long. I don't know why this is happening but it is probably a bug and looks like it's time for another PowerGlove SMF forum patch

I think adding the Custom Date Range option in this place of the board activity overview interface will make our life more easier. This is my humble request to Tryninja.
You should make this suggestion directly to member TryNinja or write in ninjastic.space topic, there is no need to create separate topic about that in Meta board. I just checked and there is an option to select custom date range when you are searching something in ninjastic.

I came across the chart of the posts per day and month in ninjastics and was surprised that it has been falling for the last days /month despite the halving of this year.
Bitcoin halving has nothing to do with activity in bitcointalk forum. This downtrend is happening for some time but main reason for recent drop is probably decision to ban mixer signature campaigns and anything that is connected with mixers in any way. Is there a reason For this continuous fall in posts?
Old members are getting less active, some of them are inactive, and in general people don't use forums so much as they did before.

Ide na Amazon Prime. Ja torrentiram jer sam ga nedavno otkazao, realno najlošiji su streaming servis.
A imaš to isto i na Bflix ako se ne želiš petljati s preuezimanem torrenta, tamo možeš pronaći skoro sve, ali bolje gledaj uz neki dobar vpn za svaki slučaj i obavezno uključi neki adblocker npr UblockOrigin.

I'm wondering what the best ways to get Monero without linking it to my Coinbase account are. With the lowest fees possible, of course.
There are several non-kyc exchanges that have listed monero, and Bisq is one of the best options as decentralized exchange. Other alternatives are LocalMonero or Agoradesk p2p trading, Unstoppable swap, eXch exchange, etc. Some centralized exchanges still have monero listed but I would be very careful with them.

Has anyone tried using the Testnet to conceal their Bitcoin wallets? It seems to me that using the Testnet as an apparent primary Bitcoin wallet, and switching to a mainnet wallet for real transactions, would introduce a level of obfuscation that may fool some less sophisticated attackers or investigators. You could also maintain a variety of wallets on external drives to increase complexity.
That could only reveal that you are advanced Bitcoin user, and that you probably have more mainnet coins than the average Joe. Having multiple decoy wallets with smaller amount of BTC would probably work better, that can easily be done with passphrases. I would not hide anything with testnet coins, but I would keep some of them as an easy and free way to teach others how Bitcoin works.

Re-running searches (sending a POST request again) can be more CPU/IO intensive than rearranging existing results on the fly. Is this something only SMF can help us with or can bitcointalk do something about it?
You should try using ninjastic.space website when you want to search for something in forum, it is giving very good results and it is usually much faster. I guess someone could make another patch to improve forum search, but it is never going to be good enough.

I suck at designing signatures myself so I would have to shell out a few hundred to jayce if I want to make another set of signatures. You might want to talk with members who already have or had similar free signature campaigns in forum. I don't think it's that much expensive to make simple signature and there are also members who can do this job for free, since you don't need anything complicated or fancy with many elements.

I don't want to automate anything related with AI, and don't fully trust any tool that is checking for AI generated posts, but using multiple tools is making those chances much higher. Whenever I am checking if member is using AI tools for writing their posts I am checking all their post history, not just a single suspicious post.

I was involved in the Original Bitcoin Town Attempt, which can be seen in this Thread. It was largely taken over by Trolls who attacked the idea as "Centralized" and FinShaggy was Banned from the Forums. I don't see member FinShaggy to be banned in bitcointalk forum, he is simply inactive since July 2017. Concept of Bitcoin town sounds cool and I think even theymos had positive comments back in the days, but making this a reality is not going to be easy. At this point it all looks like one big fantasy story. Altcoins would end up being Very Important to any Bitcoin Town. The Town would want to have a Currency in Every Market, and Bitcoins. They would want to get into Creating their Own Currencies. Totally not needed, and it makes no sense to have altcoins in BITCOIN CITY You can always try to make Shitcoin City if you want.

It works fine, but it's an old machine, and newer & more efficient low-power Mini-PCs have been flooding the market for a few years now.
I understand the need to save power with low-power mini PC devices, but running a node 24/7 is not spending all that much power like bitcoin mining does. However, I do appreciate when something is silent and quiet and I am ready to pay for that. Yes, I have been moving my RPi setups and other old micro PCs to the N100 Beelink and similar.
Does Intel N100 devices have passive or active cooling? This days I more prefer AMD than Intel, it would be interesting if they have some alternatives available.

Well yes but I did not send this payment to myself. It came from an external party and I have no control over their actions. Can I still do something then to speed it up?
You can tell them to increase the fees if they used RBF or to send new transaction. I checked transaction you posted, and they did use RBF, but it may need more time for transaction to be confirmed with 7 sat/vB fees they used. Right now fees are going crazy but I would wait for weekend to see if mempool cools down a bit.

Since this card does not have a display, it is not possible to reliably verify the authenticity of addresses and amounts; you have to trust the software on your online smartphone.
This is even more concerning if Tangem app is also closed source, than you really can't confirm anything. Better alternative is to use Satochip cards that are open source, same as their app for confirming addresses and transactions. Another cool thing about Satochip is that you can make them as DIY project, and there are java cards with screen included, they are not cheap, but they do exist. While having Passport 2, I (with that) use Tangem for on-the-go transactions during my business trips relying on its It's unique recovery mechanism which allows me to not worry about my SEED, PIN codes etc.
IMO Satochip HW is doing this better with their cards, and you can combine them with other hardware wallets.

Finally I get a chromebook as "backup laptop" and only for traveling. here, (of course) the first question I asked myself... can I create a secure wallet using this machine?
I never used chromebook and I don't know exact specs, but I am sure it's possible to format the drive, install good Linux operating system. and turn your chromebook device into ''normal'' computer. Just make sure to use some light distro version on Linux, something with basic desktop environment would work just fine. After this installing Electrum wallet and anything else would be very easy, that is if you have basic skills to install OS by yourself.

I'd like to get my phrase and import it into another wallet and am traveling ... away from my hand-written backup. Appreciate any help Don't you already have seed words offline and written as a backup on piece of paper or metal? In case if you don't have that than I would just send coins to newly generated address in wallet with new seed words that have proper backup. Waiting for fees to go down would be a wise decision.

As far as I know, merchants do not ask for an address registered with the bank. Name, surname, card number and CVV. If you were to buy some physical goods with this card, its anonymity feature loses its importance. No they don't, but if someone is purchasing something from let's say Aliexpress or Ebay, address with name need to match or they could refuse payment and flag your card and account. But assigning a custom name can be a very interesting possibility. This feature already exist on other virtual cards I use, it's nothing special, but it's useful for the same reasons I mentioned above.
