Guys, I can confirm that you can use Coinomi to claim your BTG.

As for BCH, I used TREZOR's own claiming engine. I believe TREZOR can do BTG too.

Whatever you do, be EXTRA careful. You're messing with the private keys that hold your BTC stash! Make sure you know what you are doing!

Strong optical illusion. All the balls you see in this image are brown.

Enjoy. Tongue



Nice, although easily explained. Our eyes are mixing brown with R (red), G (green) and B (blue) stripes, giving the balls the corresponding tint. The further away you more (or the smaller the picture), the more pronounced the mixing effect, as the eyes cannot resolve the details. I wouldn't call it an illusion, just spatial filtering, similar to the way RGB screens or Bayer sensors work.

I made my point, so I feel no need to lecture about it.  Do what you want, and it seems quite doubtful to me that NOT tatooing yourself has as many disadvantages as tatooing yourself, and part of the reason is op sec.  Personal choice off course.

By the way, when filthy rich fucks are amongst their fellow other filthy rich fucks, that would be an appropriate time for flaunting as much wealth as you can because your safety is not at jeopardy because the other filthy rich fucks are doing the same.

When you are walking down the street, you are not in club med or in some other location that surrounds you with other filthy rich fucks, then it is much better to at least make an appearance of attempting to fit in and to NOT make yourself any BIGGER of a target than you need to be made.  Sure, regular peeps are going to realize that you are not one of them and that you likely have more money than them, but if you don't flaunt the bullshit, then they are not going to be able determine (or even care perhaps) to know whether you have 5x more than them or 1,000x more than them.  If you flaunt wealth or other aspects about yourself (through a tattoo or other kinds of labelling), you have much less plausible deniability - and I would not want to put myself into those kinds of positions - even though other peeps are going to come to differing conclusions that might fill their lives with the kinds of drama (and attention) that they want and I would prefer to lessen in my own personal life.

Make your own choice of course.  I am not attempting to stop you or anyone else from making their own life choices about tattoos and other things like that, but I continue to personally believe that these should be thought out choices rather than spontaneous ones... and not mere rationalizations based on your having already gone down that path...  and in that regard, tattoos are more irreversible and difficult to hide as compared to other forms of flaunting your wealth, if you choose to do so from time to time.... and in that regard, I have no problem with flaunting your wealth from time to time... and also enjoying nice things... which is why many of us have accumulated a lot of bitcoins, hopefully in order to spend some of them or at least to otherwise to be able to spend our other less valuable money that we hold alongside of our bitcoin that we may not need to spend if we have managed our overall portfolios well.

Merited.

This is good advice, and we should all take opsec very seriously, or we risk getting our precious BTC wrenched out of us and into the wallets of thieves. A while back, a Turkish guy had posted on Facebook that he owned 400+ BTC. Notice the past tense "owned"... He was kidnapped, tortured, and his BTC taken from him.

Tattooing BTC on an exposed part of your body is like inviting criminals to do the above to you. Just be extra careful and never openly boast about your stash, especially to people you don't know well. If someone asks, just say you're into the technology and want to be part of the revolution, but never that you own a good amount of corn.

~~~ 10 GOLDEN RULES FOR BTC SUCCESS ~~~

1. Be an early bird (a $4-digit BTC price is still early).
2. Believe & (at least try to) understand the technology.
3. Buy as much BTC as you can, as soon as you can.
4. Don't trade.
5. Don't sell until you reach a wealth target.
6. A dip is a reason to buy, not to trade.
7. Accumulate & HoDL.
8. Always zoom out on BTC/USD charts.
9. Read the WO thread.
10. Good things come to those who wait.

By the way, Craig Wright actually is Satoshi for one simple reason: if it were not so, would now be shown the real Satoshi by move BTC from the old address. There can be no such thing that no one knows who Satoshi is, the community would certainly have reacted in an exhaustive manner to the grant of a patent to Wright if he were not Satoshi. Creator or Wright, or an alien from the future, the other can not be

Hey Mic!

Wow, what a cool b-day surprise that is! Your GF is so lovely!

Also thanks to xhomerx10 for the artwork, I'm sure he represents all of us WOs...

Wishing you+GF the very best in life. Keep doing what you do man.

I'm not into this aura/karma shit, but yours is hugely positive, you're a great guy and you deserve the best.
2513  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: June 06, 2019, 11:33:01 AM
Guys... No need to time the top.

- Set a financial target for a comfortable life for you + loved ones.
- Add 30% to that as a safety margin.
- HoDL your coinage until half of it is worth the above target.
- Sell said half of coinage (be careful how you do it).
- HoDL other half.
- Enjoy your life.
- Reap the new profits gained by your HoDL stash.
- A comfortable life is not a lazy life. Be productive.
- Keep working if your job is creative and enjoyable.

That's my plan.

Don’t worry about it, I’ve never even tried to get involved in that. Just buy regularly, a couple of times a month etc & as always the price goes up over time. Don’t panic about buying if it goes down a bit shortly after, it means nothing in the long term.

Wise words...

Guys...

Earlier today I was walking on the street when I saw the innards of a USB stick on the pavement. It had been lying there for a while, had been stepped on by passers-by several times, but looked like it could be readable. I saw it, walked past it, and kept walking away...

Until it hit me: what if this little thing lying on the ground contains the private key to a massive BTC wallet? I thought, naaah, no way... But I couldn't escape the thought. I went back and picked it up!!! Tried to read it just now, but no dice. It was as DEAD as a cockr0ach smashed by a 400oz gold bar!

Has this ever happened to you? With USB sticks or old HDs/PCs? I mean, the urge to check the contents for keys?

I'm paranoid, I know...

It was always going to be very impractical opsec-wise to have one huge party.
We're going to have to decentralise this thing.

I think you're right...

All of us getting together in one place and time that is publicly known (or that could leak) will create a huge BTC honey pot. We could then be abducted, tortured and have our BTC wrenched out of us! OUCH!

Most of us already are, or will soon be millionaires, some even billionaires... This is no joke! Gotta organize this thing very carefully...

I agree with your overall sentiment, and the point(s) that you are making, AlcoHolDL; however, I am going to quibble a bit with your assessment that "most of us already are, or will soon be millionaires."  To be or soon be a millionaire, most of us would need to have in the territory of 100 coins or assuming that a BTC price of $20k is imminent, then "most of us" would need to have 50 coins or more.  I have my doubts about that assessment, at least in terms of the "most" categorization.

OK, yeah, that was an edited post. In the original I had typed "most of us will soon be millionaires", and later added the "already are" part.

But still, in 3-5 years from now, even single-digit BTC coinage could be worth > $1M.

But yeah, "most" was probably too much.

Still, good things come to those who wait. IOW: HoDL!

Edit: Also, at the $100k party, just 10 BTC makes you a millionaire by definition...

I really like the auto-scaling feature of charts...

When we go sideways it auto-scales to a few $$/div. and it all looks so rough and jagged, almost like a sawtooth pattern. And when the big dildos come and the scaling jumps to several $$$/div., it all becomes so silky-smooth... Isn't it cute?

I find watching a 5 min. BTC chart so relaxing... Almost therapeutic.

I know, I'm weird...

https://www.crypto-news.in/explainer/bitcoin-explainer/paul-le-roux-yet-another-satoshi-candidate/

"There are users on online cryptocurrency forums and message boards who theorise, Craig Wright may have been involved with Paul Le Roux from the day he started working on Bitcoin project. Wright became a snitch to US government leading to arrest of Paul Le Roux and used his friendship with Dave Kleiman to steal a hard disk of Le Roux which contains more than one million bitcoins which he has been using as basis to support his claims behind the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.
...
There was also an anonymous user who theorised that Craig Wright’s hard dish with one million Bitcoin is actually hard disk stolen from Le Roux which was encrypted using his True Crypto software preventing Wright from accessing the bitcoins stored inside. The user also suggested that Calvin Ayre’s mining warehouse is just a front to hide true function of massive data centers which Calvin and Wright have so far been using to attempt decryption of true crypt volumes to plunder the bitcoins but have met with little success. "

Intriguing...

Assuming the above is true, they won't have much success, as TrueCrypt is a tough nut to crack. If Paul Le Roux has used it properly (i.e., using a cryptographically strong passphrase and/or nested encryption algorithms) it will take centuries for them to brute-force it open.

But... If Paul Le Roux was not very careful in choosing a strong passphrase, then there may be a good chance that they succeed. Craig Wright would then be able to sign as Nakamoto and would have the proof he needs. He could also dump those million BTC and cause havoc...

I really hope they end up like this:
