My guess is it was a different amount, or someone spammed all involved addresses with dust. It's unlikely all of those 4528 addresses were emptied. I don't think they is a means of tracking the addresses of participants as the link to the survey is down. And its possible that those who held bought more bitcoin making it impossible to see an address with the exact balance. Moreover, how does your site operate? is it possible to go far back to 2014 transactions? or it searches generally on all addresses with a particular amount you want to check? [/quote] The most widespread airdrop I think. And lucky if some of those students held up to last year's ATH, they could buy more goods or services. Just wondering how the distribution of bitcoin was at that time, because considering the article said bitcoin could only be spent on things related to education.
They had the fireflies application that enabled them to crowd source goods and services for bitcoin. But on the other article it was stated that some stores in the school stopped accepting bitcoin. However, as at 2014 bitcoin was getting more adoptions unlike the 2010 - 2011 era. I think for the school library to accept bitcoin then they'll be other means of spending bitcoin in the campus as bitcoin won't be a new term to them. Remember, MIT is a tech school and their students are IT geeks. They all spent their bitcoin, only few held even the fireflies programmer stated that he got his degree that's what matters when he was asked why he didn't hodl.

image from Pete RizzoIn 2014 two students of MIT Dan Elitzer the founder of MIT bitcoin club and Jeremy Rubin a computer science student launched a project aimed at making bitcoin a case study by students and professors to birth an ecosystem for digital currency in MIT. To begin the project the founder of MIT bitcoin club coupled with Jeremy Rubin was curious to know how students will spend bitcoin if given the chance to hold bitcoin. So they raised more than 500k with the assistance of the bitcoin community and MIT alumni which was enough to distribute 100 dollar worth of bitcoin (0.290272 BTC) each to 4,528 enrolled in the institution. This free bitcoin distribution made MIT campus the first place in the world to have widespread access to bitcoin. On the 29th of October 2014, a survey that lasted for 5 days was hosted by the MIT Bitcoin club to enable students to claim their bitcoins. Students who received the free bitcoin had the option to spend it on books at the school library where bitcoin was accepted. And on Fireflies a program that enabled MIT students to crowdsource products and services for bitcoin. A link below shows how students spent their money and the few who held the free bitcoin. https://news.bitcoin.com/thousands-mit-students-free-bitcoin-2014-6-year-holders-13000-gains/Giving-away free bitcoin to thousands of people is the best vehicle to Mass adoption. https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2014/10/29/mit-undergrads-can-now-claim-their-free-100-in-bitcoin/

Did you hear or read about the origin of the world “hodl"? Today I saw a post on Facebook that the forum member was drunk when he wrote hodl instead of hold. Generally I learnt that mistakes go viral online. I'm not sure about his condition that day whether drunk or typos but, sharing ones thought at any moment, mood or condition can make a difference in the cryptocurrency market.

Those that moved to POS because of the energy consumption of POW know little about POW, and it's the only reason people complain about POW. To maintain the decentalized nature of Bitcoin POW should remain. POS looks childish, unlike the POW that requires mathematical knowledge and good amount of power to mine a block. This is actual work and it's more secured than the POS. I think it'll be difficult for the government to regulate bitcoin with POW in place and easier if BTC uses POS.

Having a new skin for a new hw is not necessary and to some its not important to change the skin of an old looking hw but, on the other hand, the brand is targeting people that love fancy things and their hardware wallet has to look new to them always. Alot of people will not bother to renew the skin so far their hardware wallet is still in a good condition -- that is what matters. And I belong to such category of people not only for hard ware wallet even phones the skin don't matter so much to me.

Nigerians are positive about cryptocurrency trading. And since it was introduced to Nigerians many of them who were into sports betting solely for money switched into cryptocurrency. However, many Nigerians have trading bots that is viral and used by many traders around the nations. The population of Nigeria is too high but bitcoin is a house hold name both old and young people know about Bitcoin. So the number there can be said to be incorrect compared to the total population in Nigeria and the number of youths In Nigeria who learn, trade and buy Bitcoin.

I would never compare a forum to social networks. Posting pictures is one of the dumbest things to do. Waiting for likes is the same. A lot of people on the forum want privacy, don't they? What connects the forum with social networks? Just come here with an open mind. If you see a useful and good post, give it merit. If you know the answer to the question, share your vision. In the case of the OP, think about what you now have to say. Would it be really bright, or does it look like pouring water from a full bucket into an empty one?
Well your opinion is good but the way web2 works it's almost the same everywhere. They is no huge difference between this forum and a social media because social medias like twitter have special interest boards which is what a forum means in the networking terms. And if a user don't post or answer a question their account won't be visible in on the board or forums. Web2 is Web2 no difference. Reddit has upvotes and karma, webhostingtalk has likes, namepros has ranks etc. Unlike Web1, Web 2 allow users to post and share information on the internet which is how every other sites works including this forum and social media. They is no much difference just the Interface and how people utilize the niche they want. So if a person have an interest of ranking on any site including this forum they must be consistent to get visible and impressions in form of likes or merits. We are all here to learn and to learn you must acknowledge what you have learnt by creating threads to help build more knowledge into the subconscious. Sugar-coating the forum for newbies will end up having a forum where no much information will be shared when many of us stop using the forum due to businesses or other things. I think being consistent and learning truly is a good advise for the newbies and everyone cheers.

They are no difficulty in managing that which we can control, it's all over the web2 kind of internet, and one thing is under every creator's control — post count. If done the right way with good and valuable pictures, write-ups, or videos the account builds, and the likes start coming in every day. The same applies to the forum. We can only control the post counts, and the result of our account growth depends on how well that which we can control is been managed. Think of the forum as another social media and apply the same method. Create good content and remain consistent from time to time. Most people post once a week or twice a week on social media even on their blog and maintained that frequency. I think if a person who wants to rank up in the forum is frequent with the number of times they visit the forum and make good quality content they will always strive, so far the content is quality.
Since we can't control the amount of merit a post is to get for us, then the right thing to do is worry about the one in your control if it can make good out of that which you can't control.

The only thing I think you should know is be careful with the choices you take on the cryptocurrency space. If you have money to invest into cryptocurrency as a newbie the market is bearish and loosing money now is at high risk. I'd advise you to think of a business to start under cryptocurrency niche. It could be a site or products and services. These are long term investment with lesser risks compared to the risk involved in buying and holding crypto especially for a person who is not used to the market fluctuations. Think and research about businesses available on the cryptocurrency niche and note those which you can handle and start with them. It takes time but, you could become another CZ In the next 3-5 years.

OP don't take advice from anybody except yourself, the only thing available here is a guide to what you want it's left for you to advice yourself on what to do, so that you won't have to blame any forum member for losing funds. Go through all the threads in the forum that looks like an advice most of them carry under it and quote “not a financial advice" do your own research.

I think the merit system was created for these people who have no interest about being full fletched members of this forum. Anyone that wants to contribute will definitely keep in touch with the forum whenever possible. However, most people prefer getting crypto information from other communities other than Bitcointalk just like most of us are not active on Reddit, Twitter etc. They are many channels for Bitcoin lovers if only they wanted to contribute here, they'll share information from the channels they are active on.

Without Bitcoin and cryptocurrency they will be no Bitcointalk forum that's one thing that would have happened to the world.
They is no much difference between people that don't know about Bitcoin and those who know Bitcoin. Nothing special would have happened to the world. Technology evolves with time. What would have happened to the world if they was no electricity? They will be no computers resulting to no internet and Bitcoin, but people existed without electricity in the past. Hence, we appreciate technology because it makes things easier and one tech leads to another. Cryptography birthed cryptocurrency and exchanges which created more employments; the key to livelihood.

OP this thread should be moved to the service section, endeavor to attach the amount of Bitcoin you'll pay the person that will solve the questions. Assignments are not done free anywhere online. Follow the right section, don't abuse this section because the forum is Keen to help and tolerate any kind of question relating to bitcoin. These questions are too numerous to tackle so make an offer on the service section if you need help.

The deal will be more interesting if the management agree in terms of bitcoin volatility; if the Bitcoin price hits 30k your duration will increase to 540 days and if it drops to 15k your stay will decrease to 340 days.

You don't have to be ashamed of something that can be changed by your volition to the forum. What to do is very simple, make quality thread and response. And it won't take so much time to reach the legendary level all you need is merit to hit there time is not against you. Unlike some members with lots of merits that could have qualified them to legendary but their activity count is holding them back. You see they is nothing to be ashamed of, merit is holding you back and you just need to get them through active participation. Cheers.

According to Simple Wiki; Libertarianism is a kind of politics that says the government should have less control over people's lives. It depends on the idea of maximum liberty. Libertarians believe that it is usually better to give people more free choices. The top advocates of this kind of government are cryptoanarchist since 1988 after the manifesto was released by Timothy C. May the idea of Bitcoin was born. The goals of Crypto anarchists include all; with the help of Bitcoin, we utilize today Two persons said Tim; may exchange messages, conduct business, and negotiate electronic contracts without ever knowing the True Name, or legal identity, of the other. However, years have passed, today it's happening through the help of Bitcoin, what he said in the next lines of this Manifesto; " These developments will alter completely the nature of government regulation, the ability to tax and control economic interactions, the ability to keep information secret, and will even alter the nature of trust and reputation. " became a threat to the Government and they are working strides ahead to stop Bitcoin. Though Bitcoin cannot get terminated without tampering with the laws of physics and mathematics, it's almost impossible to stop this Libertarian Government from taking over the political world. Why is a major part of the world population not on this train - are they not interested in this freedom?I asked myself this question and the answers to it are in the last paragraph of the manifesto regarding the use of the network to execute illicit businesses, crime, tax evasion, etc as tools the State will use to halt this movement. In my opinion, these things exist in the real world and may not help to stop people from jumping on this train. Another famous reason why; is the volatile nature of the currency, which, still, is not enough to stop users as citizens lose money daily with fiat. I'd say that a plethora of people are not familiar with tech and working on crypto networks, hence won't jump on what is not clear to them. However, the vision is here and clear. A long journey is ahead, as we'll have to build a world where everybody, not some, will be able to understand Bitcoin and its currency. 25 years ago, Adam Back mentioned The only available option left for the Government in his response to Cryptoanachy and Libertarian Government. He said that if the movement gets tough and the sitting Government feels threatened, they may switch Off the Internet. And demand a GAK (Government Access to Key) before switching it back on - it's a possible action that seems impossible and depends on the pressure this movement effect on the Government He added; that the Internet can be turned off - through the disconnection of key backbones and ISPs for a while. In a nutshell, we need to vote a libertarian Government candidate into power to achieve this goal completely - Adam back. With this idea, it'll be easier to convince people to hop into the crypto network, where they can trade freely without paying taxes. Share your thoughts.
