3241  Bitcoin / Mycelium / Re: Mycelium app on Android can not send Btc on: September 26, 2019, 10:00:35 AM
Must say thank You. Now i have finally made backup (like You said waited for 60 seconds). Now I have seed safely stored on the paper. One more question can I now delete mycelium add and reinstall it, enter my seed and the same wallet will be created? With btc on it?

Absolutely. I've done it plenty of times myself.

I wonder what paper that is. Clueless journalists or shitcoin shills?  Grin

It's £1 less than yesterday which I presume means you can rescind your bids. Hopefully people will clue up before the end of the auction.

Learned rants dripping smugness and enygmatic enough to stay safely meaningless for the general public  Cheesy

A Trilema crew meet is one I really, really, really would not want to attend.



I presume they would catch, boil and eat a street child to get warmed up and then spend the rest of the night giving long oratories, but they'd all do it over each other at the same time.

Even if any of them could hear the other, none of them would understand what anyone else was saying and they'd be deeply, deeply aroused by that.

There was a Rambo movie in 2008? I had no idea. Have to look for it on the net. What's it called?

Rambo https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462499/

He takes a bunch of religious pussies into Burma. They gain redemption at the end by dashing a local's brains out with a rock.

I know a lot of people in this space for years now, but never have I seen any of them use it after their initial test transactions. If Bitcoiners don't use it, why would average joes use it?

I've downloaded it about 4-5 times over the years. I deleted it in disgust no more than an hour later every single time. I'm sure it would be more wieldy if they could make it so. Even if it were as slick as something like Telegram on PC the incentive to use it doesn't really exist.

Aaagghhr I just love the One man army movies I guess..... brute force etc

The 2008 film respected the character and did something a bit new too. He could have been any violent old git in this one. It was preferable to sitting on a bench in the rain but much more could've been done with the idea of an ancient Rambo than that.
3248  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 25, 2019, 11:09:02 PM
There's another Rambo movie? He must be like, what, 80 now, he's a Vietnam vet ffs.

I saw it yesterday. It's, um, not great. He looked like a nylon mop fell on his head and he was too busy mutilating people to take it off.

3249  Economy / Collectibles / Re: How do we find Cas coin redeemers before they redeem? on: September 25, 2019, 10:36:40 PM
Another 3 got peeled yesterday including a 25btc coin. See here....https://casascius.ludvigart.com.
I think more need to be peeled and another bull run and we'll be off to the races. Could be a while but you're absolutely right OG in thinking the more that get peeled the better off the Casascius world will become.

There is another factor - the arrival of the indistinguishable fake. There's been one rather crappy attempt complete with an unconvincing sticker on the back but a properly convincing one is not that hard to achieve so I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.

Once it does that's going to be a huuuge problem. Not many coins will have unimpeachable provenance but even those that do may have buyers doubting in that scenario.

Before buying ask for seller to prove that he is account owner by sending you personal message from account you want buy with text you provide.

Certain members are now getting on third party sites, messaging the sellers in this way and then exposing the accounts when they show up here again.

It really, really bothers a lot of people and you'll never know whether your expensive buy will be rumbled  until it's too late. There are some extremely skilled detectives out there. It's becoming a no go area.
3251  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If not a "store of value" or "medium of exchange" ... on: September 25, 2019, 09:20:56 PM
It was a great idea, but it has no future.

Pack it up, ladies. The verdict we've been waiting for has finally been delivered.

Speaking for myself at least I'll give it another 10 or so years but you're welcome to bail whenever you fancy.

This is getting interesting - if he'll go on like this he'll soon be all alone in the WO thread  Grin Grin Grin

I'm convinced he has really, really bad toothache. No one can be this consistently crabby otherwise.
3253  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 25, 2019, 08:57:45 PM
Any luck they'll sue for false advertising and a law will be made saying the word 'bitcoin' may not referenced when mentioning bsv or bch.

Stuff like this makes me wish I was a hacker so I could break in and insert a video of Craigy strutting around like a baboon. Plus I'd stick my own BSV in there too.
3254  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 25, 2019, 08:36:34 PM
Lol, its at  £466, the idiots don't know they are not bidding on real bitcoin.

Deary me.

I can see the headline from Coingeek now - 'British government declares BSV's true value'.
3255  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: For Desperate Mt Gox Victims, Long-Shot Bitcoin Deal Beats Endless Wait on: September 25, 2019, 08:23:13 PM
Association with darknet markets seems to get a lot more attention. Something also tells me that mixers aren't doing the sort of taint analysis that Chainalysis or Ciphertrace does.

If I were operating one I'd be keeping an eye on the hottest addresses. It's almost inevitable they'll pay you a visit.

Aiding privacy and allowing druggists to get by is fine by me. No way would I want my service to allow known thieves to get away clean but that's me.
3256  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trump’s Plan to Ban the Petro Could affect all Cryptocurrencies on: September 25, 2019, 07:21:11 PM
Can anyone point to one single Petro transaction anywhere? As far as I know it still doesn't exist.

This has not a great deal to do with crypto. If Maduro was trying to circumvent sanctions by using trans chickens the Americans would ban Venezuelan trans chickens.
3257  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: OpenBazaar2 on: September 25, 2019, 06:03:34 PM
Though I really like the concept of a decentralized marketplace, unfortunately I really doubt it gets any traction in the long term for the masses. Unless everyone just suddenly becomes privacy conscious.

The idea that any significant numbers are ever going to use it is laughable. It's the essence of a solution in search of a problem.

Drugs and guns, sure. Would I want to download and run a client with a useless search facility and will largely have a sprinkling of ancient listings instead of one click stuff elsewhere? Um, not really.

It could work in places with little to no conventional ecommerce but I dunno where they are. 
3258  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Public online auction for confiscated BTC tomorrow 25 Sep 2019 on: September 25, 2019, 05:30:51 PM
The auction sounds very weird to me. I understand that since Bitcoin is not legal tender in Great Britain, it's probably not as strange to the officials, but I see it as an attempt of selling money at a different price. Imagine if they confiscated 500 EUR and then made an auction in USD to see who is willing to pay how much for it. It's ridiculous, Bitcoin has its market price and it should not be worth way more or way less.

Eh?

It's just the same as every other public auction. They farm it out to the auction house and receive whatever money they get. That's how it is for anything they recover from criminals.

If buyers are stupid enough to pay more than the market rate then no one's stopping them and no one's forcing them. It's entirely their fault for bidding. The government won't care.
3259  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Ebay-like website that accepts bitcoin? on: September 25, 2019, 02:50:09 PM
I would simply buy an Ebay.com gift card from Gyft, that's assuming you're a .com user. It may not be available to those outside the US either.

Nowhere can compete with Ebay via conventional payment routes, let alone BTC. They'll all have pitiful choice and countless dead listings.

Bargain alert - https://www.wilsonsauctions.com/timed-auction/listings/lot?salecode=192398&listingid=d95e4df2-00f9-45c1-833a-937f0edae9a0&bundleoverview=false

The UK government is auctioning some crypto they nicked off someone who nicked it.

If you wish to pay £99 for 0.1 BSV instead of £68 for a whole one, and who doesn't? this could be your only chance this year.
