I found something strange. you guys already know https://keys.lol/ . On page 1 ( https://keys.lol/bitcoin/1 ) there is an address with a 4 week old transaction:

https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1LWsLyY2j2mPtYcG9yG2bDFwTWryiJL6sp

someone is stupid enough to use a wallet with a public known private key? perhaps I should monitor these known addresses and automatically transfer away incoming amounts? Smiley

That is interesting. Perhaps it is an old address that someone used to dump miner revenue into or something of that nature that he forgot to update? It looks like the coinage didn't stay in there long before it was moved. Only about 15 mins. Either the owner realised his mistake and moved it pronto or someone else did exactly as you said!

Here’s a beautiful gif for absolutely no reason other than me being a pervert.



Still can't get this out of my head.
Thanks LFC.
Here is a little more for the deprived.

I will go with 34567.
For no other reason than sequential numbers look cool and I would love BTC to be here (wishful thinking).

So just shy of 12k and the weekend ahead of us.
So are we expecting the usual weekend pump? If so, where do you think we will top out at?

I use Wirex.
Seems to do the job but only for daily use rather than large cashouts.
I have used Kraken for sums in excess of £30k without too much trouble although KYC is required.

Ok, I’m going to sell 15% at $25,000. JJG, you’ll be happy to know I’ve perfected my plan now in theory.
Way too much way too early. 1% maybe at $100k. Maybe.

I think we’ll see $100,000 per BTC in 2021 (mid to end of the year). It’d just be nice to take something off the table a bit earlier. I was a millionaire (GBP) in unrealised/unbanked BTC during the last bull run & I sold nothing.

The drop to $3,000 was gut wrenching, I thought I’d ruined my life by selling nothing near the top.

I’m not going to make that mistake again this time. I know everything points to us breaking 6 figures (USD) per coin on this cycle but I want some insurance against a potential crash.

I’ll be selling 15% at or near $25,000.

You carried this long enough bruh. Took the risk and carried it during all those years while many like me were afraid.

Life is passing away very fast. We all need to enjoy stuff before our dicks give their last breath away.

%15 for $25k don't sound bad. I say do it.

I’ve never sold moderate to large amounts of coin before (fiat wise) so I’m a bit nervous about that in the future.
I don’t want to get caught with my pants down so I admit that last week I verified my UK bank & ID with Coinbase in preparation.

If there was a De-Merit action I presume you’d all be giving it to me right now Cheesy
Nah mate. You do what you need to do. It's not like your dumping the lot anyway.
If it makes you feel easier about holding the rest then that's just fine.

I have always worked for myself and still have a small company.

One of the guys has worked for me for nearly 20 years, but he has always opted out of the pension scheme 'waste of money - everyone in my family died before they reached pension age' he said.

He rents an apartment, and what worries me is that when he retires (he's in his mid 40's), he just won't be able to afford to keep paying rent on a state pension.  He told me - 'I am saving, but I can't see how I will ever save up enough - prices keep going up, but my savings are climbing too slowly'.

Last year was a struggle - but we had a big contract in late in the year.  I said "If you can help me get this delivered before the end of the year, I will give you a bonus in January."

He did it.  I then said, I want to give the bonus to you in Bitcoin, but you have to hold it for at least a year.  If it has not gone up in that time, I will simply give you the cash instead - if it does - you just might be able to actually afford that deposit on a place of your own.

The bonus was around $6000 (in my currency) and the company bought him the BTC in Jan.

At this rate - he is well on his way to what will be a very positive change in his circumstances.  

This will be huge in terms of his outlook; THIS is the transformative power of Bitcoin.

I am so happy I was able to do this. Thank you, Bitcoin.

This is a fantastic story.
Not only has this gesture helped this guy out but it has shown him the power of Bitcoin.
The virus is spreading. Have my last smerits.

We are moving at a rate that is just fantastic.
So quick in fact that we can't even keep up with our avatars or memes.
Come on gentlemen, more meaningful memes please.
Oh and have a glorious weekend.
Thank you.

What kind of music are you listening to during this pump/fomo/hodl action? I made a thread you can toss up your choices.

I always play the same thing on pumps/fomo nights like tonite 6/21/19 at 9:48 pm CDT USA. Secret Agent Man. The lyrics seem to work.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIFrGv0UQaQ

for being in 'mostly' full HODL mode. (Damn, that 10 BTC I sold at $3,965 in the depths of despair are kinda hurting right now) Sad

Anyway, a good nite with silly music. Post your links on this thread and/or listen..and contemplate my paper/tulip wealth Smiley

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5157131.new#new

whatever, having too much fun with this pump to actually do anything constructive ...so goofing off.

I like the raise, but to much, to fast isn't healty. The alts are getting crushed.

Yeah, I'm just living in the moment for right now, having fun, but this could bite me in the future. But for now the heck with it. Having a good time with this pump!

Any update from V8?
apologies again for blurting it out here, shouldn't have. but thanks to those who pm or posted. it really helped, and some good advices.
not gonna 'update' here, sorry, too mundane, after saying: me and mrs plan to muck about now as much as possible in between her treatments, like the old days. meanwhile i'll try to keep my 'contibutions' to the thread as they were before ^ Roll Eyes, if less frequent.

Hey it's no problem V8. We all need to vent on occasion

I believe roach and gembitz are on board
Backed by garbage metals maybe?

To add fuel to this fire, even their Github description is dishonest:



https://github.com/libra/libra

I guess it depends on their description of decentralised. If they mean that the ledger is spread over two servers then I am sure it's not centralised /s

Dundee Courier spreads the news

it's all over my news feed thinger - never seen one story dominate like this


this is good news for Bitcoin.

What is it with MSM? They never get things right.
Joe public will read this

Cryptocurrencies are entirely digital forms of money which use encryption to carry out transactions securely and in many cases anonymously between two parties, which many argue make it more secure against fraud.

A key benefit of cryptocurrency is also that they are decentralised, meaning that no one entity controls the currency in contrast to how a central bank controls traditional currency.


From the courier link above and think that Libra has these properties when in fact it doesn't.
Just more confusion for average Joe.

At what point are the general public going to wake up and realise that any “crypto” based on a centralised system is no better than the current FIAT system?
Sheesh.
Oh well, at least it is raising awareness of crypto in general I guess.
But with so many “solutions” in place I fear that they may not be able to see the wood from trees.
