If the @OP didn't give it to him, his mother will ask @OP to give him for a second.

Just a reminder: Grown-ups usually don't have to do everything their mothers tell them!

Other scenario he will say @OP is stingy, instead of enjoying the holiday

OP said it was "a family emergency", not a holiday.
222  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 2-month-old transaction still unconfirmed, stuck in mempool on: March 03, 2024, 01:09:47 PM
So now that it's back in the mempool, I'm wondering whether it will be confirmed along with any future transactions I send.

If both transactions consume the same UTXOs, then the unconfirmed transaction is invalid and can never be confirmed (regardless of when it was created or broadcast). It will be dropped from the mempool.

It's a lot of money at stake.

That sounds weird, dude.  Seriously, how do you forget the email address tied to a bunch of money?  Perhaps try retracing your steps by searching through old messages to jog your memory.  Blockchain may offer some solutions, but if we're talking a substantial sum, hiring a professional could prove wise.  They can deal with them in a way that gets results, you know, all professional-like.

There should be some framework to address AI posts.

You can use the framework outlined in nutildah's 'AI Spam Report Reference Thread' for reporting AI spam.  In my experience, most reports that are submitted there and follow the guidelines tend to get addressed by the moderators.
225  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Mining Heat recovery and scalability on: March 03, 2024, 08:26:25 AM
Your project idea has some real merit, though the initial scope may be too ambitious.  There are likely existing technologies that could be leveraged here, without needing to build an entire custom thing from scratch. Why would you even need a custom blockchain for this?

I'd suggest starting with deep research into current waste heat recovery methods. Survey the landscape to understand current solutions and where the gaps may be.  An initial minimum viable product could focus on a smaller piece of the puzzle as a proof of concept.  Building on existing infrastructure allows for quicker testing and learning.  As progress is made, the scope could then expand.  But keeping things simple up front helps validate assumptions. 

I wish you the best, Max!

The odd thing is that when I wrote down the wallet ID / password etc I also wrote down my usual email address.

This however they say is not linked to the wallet.

Email addresses on Blockchain.com were case-sensitive, check if that might be a problem. When you try to log in, you should receive a confirmation email in your inbox. Check the spam folders, or antivirus or antispam filters at your email provider, which could block the message. Ask your email provider to check their incoming message logs.

Can you find any messages from blockchain.com (or.info) in your archives? That should confirm that you really used that email address.

Surely Blockchain.com have a legal obligation to re-instate my email address (as I have all other security info)?

Otherwise this can be considered theft by Blockchain.com themselves.

I'm not a lawyer, so this might be a question for your legal counsel.  However, their terms of service probably have something in there that lets them off the hook in such cases.
227  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Lost email address for Blockchain on: March 01, 2024, 12:52:22 PM
I opened the wallet in 2014 and have a 17 word mnemonic phrase.

This means your seed isn't a true BIP39 mnemonic; it's a custom one specific to their platform and solely used to back up your password (and wallet ID). It won't work for recovering your wallet anywhere else.

Your only option is to contact their customer support and request assistance in resetting the email address associated with your wallet. If they are unable (or reluctant) to assist with recovery, you can consider your wallet to be lost.



Have you tried recovering your wallet using this option? - https://login.blockchain.com/wallet/forgot-password?guid=

Unfortunately, that probably won't work either, since he doesn't even remember the email address he used.

When I try to reach out now ez now on this Forum. I get deleted or no response. Then I found the secret key I had a picture of and some of it says it's still the wrong one.

Your posts were deleted because they were off-topic (you posted in their signature campaign thread).

If anybody has way the help me that would be great.

You can send a personal message to TheQuin or post your question in FreeBitco.in's official thread.

But even better, contact them through the official contact forum on their website.
229  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Lost email address for Blockchain on: March 01, 2024, 11:00:18 AM
Only exchanges usually make use of email addresses while wallets that use passwords have nothing to do with the Blockchain as it is just an extra layer of security to help encrypt you wallet keys and phrases.

He's likely referring to Blockchain.com (formerly Blockchain.info), a very old web wallet provider. It's important to distinguish that Blockchain.com is separate from the underlying Bitcoin blockchain technology itself. They are not the same thing.
230  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Upbit-trx.com scam on: March 01, 2024, 10:44:42 AM
If anyone has information about this, please write. Thanks.

Always double-check and verify the legitimacy of any platform before depositing funds, especially with new and unfamiliar exchanges or services. Do your homework - read up on reviews, check for licenses, and all that. And if something seems the slightest bit sketchy, trust those instincts and steer clear.

From what little Ive seen of that one exchange you mentioned, trouble signs are everywhere.  The first red flag is the name of the exchange and the age of the domain. Any site using the same name and pretending to be a legitimate existing exchange should not be trusted.  My own antivirus software won't even let me access the site! And when I ran it through VirusTotal multiple security companies flagged it as malicious.  Not exactly confidence-inspiring.

Uhh! Ja sam baš zakazao u domaćem dijelu foruma - samo deset postova. (mislim da ni Veljača neće biti bolja.) Definitivno se moram popraviti pod hitno!

Dobro je da barem imamo kontinuitet, 200-300 postova mjesečno, ali i dalje ne vidim puno novih aktivnih članova. Nažalost.
232  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If everyone is holding their bitcoin, will there be a balance? on: February 29, 2024, 03:02:32 PM
I have read several posts encouraging people to hold their bitcoin for the greater good of bitcoin and probably more reward in the future. I have also been able to buy some for myself and also holding. But there is this concern that usually pop up in my head anytime I am meditating and that is what will happen if everyone is holding their bitcoin and no one is willing to sell.

You make a fair observation.  There's some truth that if all Bitcoin holders just cling to their stash instead of selling any, it could disrupt the market balance.  Bitcoin's value depends on basic supply and demand, just like any other tradable asset.  If no ones selling to satisfy buyers, prices could skyrocket.  But that spike probably wouldn't last forever and  the market tends to even out eventually with the cost settling into a new balance that fits with how supply and demand shift over time.

This can possibly happen in the future when mining reward becomes too small.

Even when mining reward becomes too small we will still have transaction fees.

I know some people will say that miners will continue to mine and sell to sustain their business but when there is reduced selling, will mining still be a profitable business?

Reduced selling means less Bitcoin on the market, which can impact its price.  If the miners are not able to sustain their business, some of them will probably stop mining, this will affect the difficulty on the network, which will consequently lead to more earnings for the miners who remain until a new equilibrium is reached again.

I'm tagging them all right now, and I'll also report the posts to the moderators.



Good suggestion but I don't think that moderators will care much about deleting such posts especially when those are in gambling board.

What makes you think that? Reporting spammy or irrelevant posts, even in the gambling board, is the right thing to do. While moderators might have some flexibility depending on the specific gambling topics, they generally delete this kind of useless crap all the time.
234  Other / Meta / Re: Use of AI on Bitcoin talk on: February 28, 2024, 11:26:58 AM
Again please is there any moderator who can monitor all this,and be able to identify this AI write up and finish them out or how did get the find out who uses AI write?

You already have about one in seven of your posts deleted by moderators – that's more than 14% of your total posts.  If you continue on this path, you'll likely get banned from the BitcoinTalk forum.


Edit: According to BPIP.org, profile has been Autobanned

It is impressive how much we can learn googling. I learned basic everything I know in bitcoin just from googling it. I just read one book about, Mastering Bitcoin.

There's nothing wrong with Googling, in fact, I still view it as an important part of the research and learning process. I do, however, have concerns about what will happen if the younger generation replaces traditional search engines, like Google, with generative pre-trained language models, like ChatGPT.



Is the most merited list a good indicator of this?
If the members are regularly active in the "Technical Discussion" board, then yes

I would say "not really". User like COBRAS active on such board[1], but doing shady stuff where that user earn 2 negative feedback.

That's a bad example. User COBRAS "earned" a total of 20 merits, so he doesn't really fit into the "top merited" category. Besides, I did mention the trust rating as another indicator.

237  Economy / Speculation / Re: crypto on: February 28, 2024, 10:02:02 AM
hello is this the right time to sell these btc or wait for the halving

Timing the market just right is almost impossible.  Even experts can't predict what Bitcoin's price will do around the halving and  the best plan for most people is to not try timing things at all.  Instead, make a solid strategy and stick to it in the long run.  Whether that's holding Bitcoin long-term, dollar-cost averaging over time, or something else that fits your goals. 

Theres no definitive right moment to sell or buy that anyone can tell you.  So many factors influence Bitcoin's volatile price - the halving, global economics, regulation, tech developments, whales manipulating things.  With so much complexity clinging to a consistent gameplan tends to work out better than reacting to every market move. 

Sure, the 2024 halving might spark a new surge eventually.  Or not.  No one knows for sure.  But obsessively trying to sell the top and buy the bottom is stressful and unlikely to succeed.  Have a reasoned plan for what makes sense for your situation rather than getting caught up in the endless speculation.

If the members are regularly active in the "Technical Discussion" board, then yes, I think the top merit list is a pretty good indicator.  However, there are a few "bad apples", of course, that should no longer be trusted. For example, Symmetrick (formerly Ratimov). Although that account is now blocked, there may be other such members, so always check their trust ratings.
239  Other / Meta / Re: Report plagiarism (copy/paste) here. Mods: please give temp or permban as needed on: February 28, 2024, 07:59:06 AM
I dont want to recover that acc, I want to flag the account or even get it banned. Just to raise awareness. I registered today bc i wanted to search something in the forum. I dont have my keys anymore to do my PGP, sorry about that, I just want to flag that old account, I even bet he cant even speak spanish (Im from Mexico).

You can't do that if you have no way to prove that the account was actually owned by you and hacked.

Don't trust that stolen account.

We have no reason to trust you either.

Check the active time too, not even in Mexico timezone.

That proves nothing.

Look what I just found (use Tor browser or VPN, don't expose your IP to this site): https://sembt.com/thread-15254-1-12.html.
Now compare that to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5481114.0 (the OP looks like chatbot spam, but that's not the point).

-snip-

I am so disappointed; the website is down from my side. I was super curious!

I wanted to meet my Chinese own version.  Huh

The website is not down. Use VPN or Tor if you are geoblocked. (You should use them anyway when visiting such sites.)
