I woke up and saw some users have weird texts below their avatars but many people don't have. My guess goes on only people who make at least one post in April 1st have activation for those texts.

If my guess is true, I would wait for my texts for the point update of the forum.

The return of Ibrahimovic in Sweden national kit might play as a huge supports for young stars as Isak and Kulusevski. In first two matches, Ibra shows his leadership role very impressive and I feel like Ibra in end of his thirties and his career does not care much about goals.

He contributes more into the tactics and passes for his team mates.

If Ibra can help his young team mates to play successfully in EURO 2021, he can retire in his national kit with a big success. Even he won't win any title with his national squad.

Isak, a new young rising star in Sweden

On Rollbit, if you click on Account and Profile (or that link) you will get a link that allows you to change your username or email address.

How many times one user is allowed to change these details?
- Only one time after registration
- Or as many times as they want, just need to get approval from the Rollbit team after submissions

Nodes not only verify blocks, they also verify/validate transactions that go into the mempool and at every block.
Transactions are validated by all nodes. The network more decentralized than it looks like at first.
Antonopoulos describes more about bitcoin nodes in Chapter 8 of Mastering Bitcoin.

Miners can have their own full nodes or just SPV nodes/ lightweight nodes and they have to rely on the pools they are participate in to mine bitcoin for data of the full blockchain.

All nodes include the routing function to participate in the network and might include other functionality. All nodes validate and propagate transactions and blocks, and discover and maintain connections to peers. In the full-node example in A bitcoin network node with all four functions: wallet, miner, full blockchain database, and network routing, the routing function is indicated by a circle named "Network Routing Node" or with the letter "N."

Some nodes, called full nodes, also maintain a complete and up-to-date copy of the blockchain. Full nodes can autonomously and authoritatively verify any transaction without external reference. Some nodes maintain only a subset of the blockchain and verify transactions using a method called simplified payment verification, or SPV. These nodes are known as SPV nodes or lightweight nodes. In the full-node example in the figure, the full-node blockchain database function is indicated by a circle called "Full Blockchain" or the letter "B." In The extended bitcoin network showing various node types, gateways, and protocols, SPV nodes are drawn without the "B" circle, showing that they do not have a full copy of the blockchain.

Mining nodes compete to create new blocks by running specialized hardware to solve the Proof-of-Work algorithm. Some mining nodes are also full nodes, maintaining a full copy of the blockchain, while others are lightweight nodes participating in pool mining and depending on a pool server to maintain a full node. The mining function is shown in the full node as a circle called "Miner" or the letter "M."

User wallets might be part of a full node, as is usually the case with desktop bitcoin clients. Increasingly, many user wallets, especially those running on resource-constrained devices such as smartphones, are SPV nodes. The wallet function is shown in A bitcoin network node with all four functions: wallet, miner, full blockchain database, and network routing as a circle called "Wallet" or the letter "W."

In addition to the main node types on the bitcoin P2P protocol, there are servers and nodes running other protocols, such as specialized mining pool protocols and lightweight client-access protocols.

Different types of nodes on the extended bitcoin network shows the most common node types on the extended bitcoin network.

Electrum wallet has a document for Replace-by-Fee
My transaction has been unconfirmed for a long time. What can I do?

If you have made a transaction that is unconfirmed, you can:
  • Wait for a long time. Eventually, your transaction will either be confirmed or cancelled. This might take several days.
  • Increase the transaction fee. This is only possible for “replaceable” transactions. To create this type of transaction, you must have checked “Replaceable” on the send tab before sending the transaction. If you’re not seeing the “Replaceable” option on the send tab go to Tools menu > Preferences > Fees tab and set “Propose Replace-By-Fee” to “Always”. Transactions that are replaceable have the word “Replaceable” in the date column on the history tab. To increase the fee of a replaceable transaction right click on its entry on the history tab and choose “Increase Fee”. Set an appropriate fee and click on “OK”. A window will popup with the unsigned transaction. Click on “Sign” and then “Broadcast”.
  • Create a “Child Pays for Parent” transaction. A CPFP is a new transaction that pays a high fee in order to compensate for the small fee of its parent transaction. It can be done by the recipient of the funds, or by the sender, if the transaction has a change output. To create a CPFP transaction right click on the unconfirmed transaction on the history tab and choose “Child pays for parent”. Set an appropriate fee and click on “OK”. A window will popup with the unsigned transaction. Click on “Sign” and then “Broadcast”.

Never used a VPN before as I am always afraid that I will get myself banned on some websites  Grin. But that could indeed be a solution to overcome the restrictions.
Can you recommend a free VPN, easy in use ?
Gambling sites usually are very strict with VPN. Not all of them ban accounts that use VPN but if you don't check their Terms of condition or FAQ, you should not use VPN.

When your account was banned because of suspicious log in or VPN usage, and if those activities are considered as ToS violations, your account will get troubles and support won't help you to lift up account restriction. Any sorry words are non sense under the view of casino operators.

UEFA nations league, EURO, World Cup qualifying matches, friendly matches are inflated and the Covid-19 forces players have to play many matches in shorter period. It only damages their fitness and potentially cause injuries. Also it can reduce the general quality of EURO 2021 matches. Players can not contribute their best if their bodies and physical fitness are bad.

I can not forget the World Cup 2002 when France came to the tournament with injured Zidane and three best national scorers: Trezeguet, Henry and Cissé. They were out after first stage. So stars are not enough if they join the tournament with tired mental and phyiscal conditions.

Anyway I saw Jacksclub already accepting Tron (TRX) now, if you had Tron in your pocket you can try your luck to play in here Smiley
Great support with TRON (TRX) from JacksClub.

I admit that I don't like the CEO of TRON but I can not say lie that I hate TRON transactions. I use it every time I move my USDT as it gives me fast transaction and very cheap transaction fee. Perhaps recent weeks other people use BSC and BEP2 are built by Binance to have a bit cheaper transaction fee. However, for me, TRON is my choice.

People who are not familiar with different chains of USDT have to carefully check details of their address (Send, receive) and chain. Transactions are irreversible so please always double check your transaction details.

Hacked accounts. They are easily to be detected. So when you buy merit from them, your accounts will be detected too.

It is my appreciation for your help that is shown by one merit you stole from my smerit reserve bank. Thank you.

I've been looking at Rollbit since a few months ago and bitcointalk is not the first place for them promotion and sponsorship programs have been launched on Youtube and Twitch TV maybe almost a year ago so don't be surprised if they have 200-500 active users on the chat
It is roughly 100 active users on the chat now. With attractive promotions, friendly UI and exciting games, the gambling site will grow bigger.

When the site grows bigger, I think different languages are necessary. Currently, English is the default and only language.

What is the Trades tab beside the Chat tab. Is it for real time price of BTC and ETH only? No trades on the site?

How much money do retail investors have left to put into it?
This is difficult since it is still difficult the inflows of money to Bitcoin, like where it came from.
But I believe if you combined retail investors, they are huge.
Retail investors tend to reduce their capital flows into market. If taking the Google Trend chart as a visual indicator for retail investment, it has been in stagnant phase. Per chart rule, will it has a dump before getting a new all time high?

Yes, because for sure some miners are using their profits to pay their expenses on mining, (hardware, electricity, etc expenses). But this time, there are still a lot of willing to buy Bitcoins, so for me, miners selling their coins is okay at the moment.
Since 2020, with institutional investment hype, most of monthly mined bitcoins were bought by institutes. GrayScale bought a lot of bitcoin every month since 2020.

Everything you wanted to know about Grayscale BTC Trust but were afraid to ask!
Grayscale is buying BTC 54% faster than it is mined so far in 2021

Italy won again, are they back? Hard to say a young team with no superstar maybe they are just overperforming.
Roberto Mancini has managed his work so impressive. He reminds me what Cesare Prandelli did with Azzuri in Euro 2012 but Mancini need an official big tournament to prove his works for the national team.

Euro 2021 (postponed one year from 2020 because of Covid-19) will be a big test for Mancini and Azzuri. I see Mancini is lucky when he took over the national team with not super stars in the squad. I think Mancini is not a good player who can control super stars.

About Ronaldo, since he left the game earlier now FIFA could ban him for some games even if referee said "I did a mistake"
It could be a serious ban for Ronaldo or just a soft one. Do you remember what Messi got after his bad statement in Coppa America years ago in 2019? Finally, Messi got a softer ban than many people thought.
Argentina appeal Messi's three-month ban

Super stars like Messi and Ronaldo have some privileges that we can not imagine. Leagues, cups, tournaments need their appearances.

I believe I've seen a similar of this post before @OP, not the same but carries similar contest to it and I'll be so glad to tell you that, it ain't going to work. Nope, it won't! Trying to make a pump and dump through twitter groups won't work so well as to influence bitcoin price.
It can impact price on very small local exchanges but it can not have small effects on big and global exchanges. Global exchanges have superb big volume and a small group can not change the price. Not to mention the participants in those groups are not bitcoin whales. They are retail investors or inexperienced traders only.

Those top individuals you’re talking about like EM are special after all, and we little and ordinary people can’t compare to someone who has about 50 million followers and hundreds of billions of dollars. Such people are influential precisely because of these things, and have an army of blind followers who respond to their every word - and thanks to the digital age they can create a bad or good effect within minutes.
They tweet and readers / followers of their tweets have own responsibilities to extrapolate their tweet meanings. Like this classic image

Quote
No matter what anyone thinks of such people, it's certainly better to have them on your side than against yourself - and how much it helps or doesn't help Bitcoin time will tell. If you want to help Bitcoin, use every opportunity to explain to people what it's really about - you have the opportunity to do it every day on this forum or in real life.
I see their tweets are funny and can cause ups and downs on the market in short term. In the long term, real effects will come from real capital and investments such as institutional investments that have lasted since 2020.

As far as I know, blockchain.com fixed that vulnirability and patched it. The issue is that they refused to pay the bug bounty to the person who discovered it. It was BayAreaCoins
You can read the full story from here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193539.0

Web wallets are the worst (be it blockchain.com or any other service) and no one should use them.
I did not know this story and the reputation of Blockchain.com is destroyed by their refusal to pay bug bounty for @BayAreaCoins.

I used Blockchain.com wallet as my first bitcoin wallet but later I did not use it. I don't want to get issue to sync my account and confirm the legitimacy of my log in on different devices.

Immediately after I knew of Electrum wallet, I used it and forget about Blockchain.com wallet. It is inconvenient for me to have access to my email just to log in my blockchain wallet on the same device. I don't want to put them all on one device. This feature is not good, for me. That story keeps me staying farther from that wallet.

If hacker can get access to email and get wallet ID, they can brute force wallet password. Risky.

This is a nice reward system. I guess, that is one of their selling points here.
This casino is prepared to launch their platform here in the forum, as they already have their license acquired.
And looking at their site, they are already gaining players. Not many new casinos can attract about 200 players at a time.
But yes, one thing they can add are more alts with cheaper fees. Both BTC and ETH are quite expensive these days.
To begin a company, focus on 2 biggest cryptocurrencies with highest hashrates on networks are wisely. After a few months, I think more alternate cryptocurrencies will be considered and added. Many candidates were raised in previous pages but if I vote for only one, I would like to nominate Litecoin (LTC). Fast, cheap and has a healthy network. From stats, Litecoin network has the third biggest hashrate, just behind Bitcoin and Ethereum and is very close to hashrate for Ethereum.

ETH 2.0 is promising to reduce transaction fee on Ethereum network but let's see what it can bring to ETH users.

I created my account and discover one feature that I like. The Value Calculator for deposit and withdrawal. It help users have the estimator of bitcoin or ethereum value with the amount they will deposit or withdrawal converted to $.
I don't need that estimator, when I sent my rest of the Ethereum balance from my wallet to Rollbit wallet, I don't calculate it to know how much I have to send, cause the user don't need to send a unique number either.
You don't need but some gamblers might need it. If they want to bind their bet amount in $, that calculator is what they need. It depends on their responsible gambling control: betting with a max amount in BTC or in $. I mean, they self-restrict their max bet very responsibly.

This feature is just helpful, not harmful for gamblers.
2637  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: P2TR can make people that are using multisig wallets to increase on: March 28, 2021, 05:47:37 AM
P2TR is known as pay to Taproot, P2TR has not yet been activated in Bitcoin Core which means other wallets has not also been supoorting it.
Different wallets are built and upgraded by different developer teams and you can not say other wallets depend on Bitcoin Core upgrade to do theirs.

Quote
Even if the offline wallet private key is seen by hackers, it can be used to steal the whole wallet from someone, it can happen to all wallets, but unlike multisig wallets, unless all the certain number of private keys require for signing is known, which will be difficult if saved offline and in different locations.
It is what you choose when you create your multisig wallet: signature and cosigner.
"Choose the number of signatures needed to unlock funds in your wallet:"
In Electrum wallets, the max number for signature and cosigner are 15.

Quote
What do you think? Will Taproot activation increases the number of people and organizations that will make use of multisig wallets because of the transaction fee reduction?
Not all people will use it. I need a strong password for my wallet and I don't use a multisig wallet. I don't store all my bitcoin in one wallet and in one device.

A friend of my told be about this forum, that it can be a way to help in a way I can avoid online scammers. What makes me not to invest before is because I am afraid of the internet, I was thinking money that goes into internet may be trapped there forever
You are afraid of online attacks perhaps. Do you know that with bank transfers, you can do it online and have you ever been afraid of online bank transfer?

Bitcoin transaction is irreversible so if you click send your bitcoin or click "Release bitcoin" for your trade, your bitcoin will be move and you will never be able to reverse it. Check address, amount carefully before you click Send or Release.

If the platform you use has an security option "2FA code when Release my bitcoin", please choose it. It is a prevention for your mistaken "Release bitcoin" Click

Electrum is best as it is a SPV wallet. It is light and you don't need to have 500 GB in your disk to download and store all blockchain data.

It is a non custodial wallet and you can customize your transaction fee (sat / vbyte)

I think that's wrong, national teams usually have a tactic, the coaches there do know which players they want to call up, at least few days prior but usually even longer, you have a whole pool of players that you could get. Which means coaches do know what they want to do.
Coaches of national teams know what their plans, tactic and training sessions are but with limited time of each international call up and training, it is not enough for coaches to help players have good bonds and sometimes they fail to practice the idea of coaches in match.

Quote
Problem is that players do not know that, if they haven't been the same roster of course, some nations have the exact same roster for few years, maybe one or two changes but that's fine, and in that case they can play perfectly well together, but some teams have a bit more new players, in that case it is coaches' job to explain to people what's going on, and what they are planning on doing and what the tactic will be.
The dependence on how on national squad is built. Some national teams have stable squads but some don't. With squads with many changes from reconstruction or as a consequence of a new coach, they will get troubles.

Players are playing for big clubs would be very tired with their responsibility in clubs and with a few days to rest between matches. Covid-19 breaks schedules of leagues, cups and players are in pressure of playing many matches in short time.

Quote
I still think that everything is ready when the game starts, I haven't seen any decent coach end up getting an upsetting result with great players, if you have the players, and a good coach, you win the game, doesn't matter how recently they got together.
With international team, problems are how to connect star players as a squad, not an issue of how many stars in one squad. Many big nations fail: Arghentina with Messi, Di Marid, Kun Aguero, Dybala, Higuain, Mascherano is good example. They are stars and play very well in clubs but under the Arghentina kit, they play worse than usual.
