BREAKING: Reports from all over the world about unprecedented surges in mysterious boating accidents.
In fact, just had one myself and lost all my BTC.
The other night, i was dreaming of SBF being raped behind bars, looking at the BTC chart showing a massive green dildo, with tears dripping on the floor, mixing with some of his rectal blood in a beautiful pattern, like a fractal. EDIT: Anybody else missing Gentlemand's lyrical contributions in these here parts a bit, by the way? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. +1 WOsMerit Thanks for the WOsMerit. I was a fan of unconventional lyrical works since late puberty, when i constantly hung out drunk or drugged with independent artists, authors, directors and musicians (like myself, back then). Had some great women back then, who were up to double my age. Then i had to work for my money and ended up as an IT workaholic. Not the greatest of my life's plot twists, so far  AFAIR it was Bret Easton Ellis' "American Psycho" which kicked off that particular spleen in me, and Gentlemands posts reminded me quite a lot about the novel. I could imagine him as RL version of Patrick Bateman easily  So far for the "fandom".  |

Quite an attractive work of art.
Heaven help us it is not an NFT is it?
Are NFT even still a thing? Last post for today, just to tell you all that the Ledger recovery is finished, the funds are transferred and SAFU. #GN EDIT: One heart-stopping moment though: After recovering the keys on the new Ledger, it wouldn't get recognized in the app until reconnection. In case this helps somebody here some day... |

Admit it, you pushed clicked the red button, didn't you?   I have an order on the books @ $35k, FWIW. Still waiting. In 10 years, this will feel like a very expensive ranch, but you'll have it finished much earlier. Time saved is worth future "potential" money. I once saw an interview with a guy that visits lottery winners and hands their money over. Whenever he was asked for a recommendation on how to invest the money, he used to say "It's unlikely that you will have so much luck in the lottery again. I advise all my clients to use the money to realize their dreams". I was personally thinking that this is the best advice ever BUT it was before Bitcoin existed. I wonder, but if i imagine to be that guy, i'd say "Put half of the money in Bitcoin and protect it, use the other half to realize your dreams. If you haven't got any dream, put the other half into Bitcoin as well" Realizing your dream is a rare opportunity in a lifetiime, it's worth at least as much as any amount of Bitcoin at any future time, imo. Bob did the absolutely right thing, and he, as well as us (br)others has limited lifetime. There's no reason for regret. |

Oh, and Hi everybody!
Hey Arrie, nice to read from you. By the way, i wonder who else will be returning within this bullrun. Still counting on some (yet unnamed) OG's to send a sign of life to the WO. Call me sentimental, but i guess i am  |

It's over... We're going back to $12k.
Admit it, you pushed clicked the red button, didn't you? |

I’ve been too busy to really comment much lately and frankly things have been a bit boring in Bitcoin land. But damn! What a nice surprise. Massive pump, large page count increase, page parity, green candles, trains, helicopters, modems, and rusty pipes!
Seems like the exciting part of the bull market is back baby!
Yes, it looks very nice and exciting. And there will be more pumps in the future. Bitcoin will now go down a bit again (this is the rule). But some people cannot control their greed and now they will pounce on Bitcoin. Which will empty their pockets. Be careful. Wait for good time. Bitcoin’s price is holding up pretty well so far. I think people are trying to beat the ETF rally and are having a bit of fomo as a result. A pump this big isn’t just random. Somebody knows something and is scooping up a whole lot of coins. I think this type of rally will happen quite a few times over the next year or so. Be ready and hold on tight. I also think that participants who timed their "exit" around the last ATH well, are progressively re-entering after the bottom was confirmed. Through times of insecurity (last few months, especially) some might have just waited a little longer to get in again. While MSM is catching up on reporting positive Bitcoin chart developments, mainstream and new buyers start to get in as well. Just to add their few % to what's happening, driven by forces behind the scenes, if you want to call it like this (like you pointed out). ---- EDIT: Thinking about LFC_Bitcoin, for example, who timed the market really well at the last ATH and bottom, AFAIR. Even if he spent quite a bit for thingies and stylez, it would not have really hurt his wealth, from the perspective of next ATH. There should be many like him, even if not with as good feeling for the price dynamics, but lots of their former gains are slowly coming back in. ---- I'm in perma-HODLmode, as usual. Might try to take a few % near next ATH. The majority of mah coinz will be held for the next generation to spend (wisely, i hope - but that's absolutely their problem).
Using a 12 foot brush hog/cutter tending to huge fields is so serene and peaceful.
Good to read such relaxed words from yours. Have fun! EDIT2: Tis unrelated, but i'm really happy with my self-planned and installed photovoltaic system. The panels i chose are collecting diffuse light really well, too. On cloudy/rainy/foggys day i still cover 20-25% of my home power demands, still feeding another 5-10% to the grid. Be aware that currently up to 40% of total consumption is from the heat pump heating of the building, which runs mostly at night, otherwise i could cover half of energy usage on a rainy day. As soon as performant sodium-ion batteries hit the consumer market, i'll go mostly self-sustaining. I'm laughing my ass off to the greedy electricity suppliers almost every day now. After a full year of monitoring the system, i can tell how much power i could dedicate to mining, if i can do it in a responsible way (energy consumption wise). |

I'm glad BobLawblaw did not succeed with his request to disable this thread
 The good, old rusty pipe. This one has aged particurlarly well, i see I'm done building a small barn, so i have more time and energy in the evenings to read and post to the WO. Good times ahead GO BITCOIN, GO! |

Expect an incoming $3000 dump.
Looks more like $300 Nah, better wait a little longer, but when it just continue to go up, i think the start of the bullrun is öike confirmed. #gn |

Its like something ahhhh don't no what to say but its crazy find Satoshi Nakamoto's album in Spotify   Not good. Craig Wright will sue this poor artists ass, claiming copyright/ownership of the songs. It'll all be based on "proof", documents that confirm that he originally composed these tunes more than ten years ago... |

These practices are a bit illegal, but I wonder, those traders who knew about it, how were they still there?
Greed? SBF now officially the greatest cryprofucktard of the century? It hasn't been a big secret that he was after $ after all from the beginning (through arbitrage, as most of you know). The hardcoded fund values found in the source code are hillarious! |

As for the hardware wallet, a classic trezor would do it, but adding just ten bucks for the new model seems legit.
I will use the ledger for the dust and spare change, maybe. I also reviewed all my other "software" wallets, some were never used.

The real problem here is: There are three accounts on the (old) ledger. BTC, shitcoin1 from chain split, and shitcoin2. To send these anywhere, i have to restore the ledger in the first place. Then i can wipe/initialize it again. Now, i wouldn't call myself a Bitcoin maxi, if i would hold the shitcoins for longer, i just didn't feel the urge to sell them for BTC yet. These are small balances, too.
I doubt that it is necessarily wise to sell your shitcoins at any time other than a time in which you would like to sell them, and with any investment (or gamble) you should be ready, willing and/or able to ride out the rougher periods, and surely sometimes shitcoins are going to go down and never really come back, but that does not even necessarily mean you should sell them at a time that is anything other than your own choosing. It was planned from the start, after gathering them. It's really not that much to make important wins out these funds anytime soon. For example, $18 or $81, i would not care and just throw all into Sats for convenience. So there was no urge to do it until date, but i should leave these coins behind at this opportunity. You could just leave your various shitcoins on that old seed, too... and in that way, if you ever wanted to access the shitcoins, you would just restore your old seed onto your ledger.. which would be wiping your new seed, reinstall your old seed, do whatever transactions you want to do with your shitcoins, and then reinstalling your new seed.. to the extent that you did not follow the earlier suggestion of just buying more than one ledger.. so in some sense I personally believe that it is is better to have aa few different hardware wallets around... even if some of them might cost a bit of money... but if you can buy some expensive spectacles to capture dee neanderlands in dee skies, you likely could afford an extra hardware wallet or two.. and presuming that you have more than 0.00419312 BTC that you are securing. #nohomo
It's not the cost. I was struggling buying a second ledger, beause i had mixed experiences with my first one. It was a present for my wife, but she didn't use it, so i asked her to use it for backup. The second one has one of the buttons not going as smooth as the other one. However, i was interested in Trezor in the past, too. I don't remember which reason exactly kept me from buying one, in the end. Personally, i wouldn't have any problems intermediately (if that is even correct english?) storing my Bitcoin "on paper" and distributing them to future hardware wallets. I'm generally curious, so i guess i will use other different hardware wallet solutions in the future, too. I personally like Trezor.. but people who are informed about bitcoin say good things about other wallets such as passport, coldcard, jade. and maybe a few others.
These are some of the more common names in this market. I had a look on some of them already, but no real reason to buy - for now.
I have always been a bit skeptical of ledger and also the secure element being closed source, and then some of their drama coming out in the past 6 months or so they largely admitted that people are putting a lot of trust in them with the secure element.. and they are really supporting a lot of shitcoins.. sure Trezor supports some shitcoins too.. but you can set it up as bitcoin only.. I also found ledger to be quite finicky.. and have some lack of user friendliness.. including that I had one that I bricked and spent a lot of time fucking around with it causing me resentment over its lack of user-friendliness, and sure maybe they have improved, but I don't like having had those experiences.
That's why i asked ledger to delete my personal data from their servers immediately after delivery. I couldn't believe they had customer data hacked off their webshop server. What a no-go. It's impossible to compare this case to paper wallet security. A security device shouldn't get bricked too easily, imo. I don't consider ledger products as perfect or even close, but they had the best suited and available ones at the time i decided to use a hardware wallet. The backing up of your seed and the ways of interacting with your coins are different.. and sure, I don't claim to be any kind of expert in the various possibilities, so maybe I should get off my high horse in terms of your earlier choice of ledger.
High horse? I recognized your opinion just as your opinion My thinking has always been to buy on the way down.. (if it were to happen to happen) rather than getting depressed (or worked up) about it... sure sometimes the amount of down does cause me to get even more nervous than usual, especially when I am running out of money to buy more, which does happen from time to time, so surely I can relate to being bothered by extremes.. yet I cannot relate as much merely by frustration that the BTC price is not going up as fast as we wished it would.. especially we have been here a while.. and then also from newbies who should be taking advantage of dips.. and yeah sure Paashaas is not a newbie, even though some of his latest posts have been coming off as if he has been making some bad gambling moves with his bitcoin stash.,, whatever it might be.
I don't even want to know. It's not really important (other than to Paashaas himself). When running out of money to buy more (as of lately), i used the courage to just hodl, which is a consequence of taking part in this thread for some years. Time runs, when i think back and recognize how many years have passed since my first Bitcoin buy. My BTC-Moment |

Thanks for the suggestions and valuations on the ledger story Now, i had a few accounts (wallets) with relatively minor shitcoin balances on it as well. According to the ledger docs, i will have to restore all balances on the new device using the old seed, send all tokens to intermediate exchange or local client wallets, reset the new device, set it up as new, reinstall the bitcoin app and transfer Bitcoin from sold shitcoins (exchange wallet) and recovered Bitcoin (local client) to it. Yep, seems i got some extra things to do Don't use the ledger generated seed, I highly doubt their random number generator is actually random, true randomness is very hard to achieve. Create your own with dice then send all you coins to the addresses from that new seed directly from you old restored seed. Then wipe the device and restore with your new seed. No intermediates required and more secure. Or maybe I'm just over the top. The real problem here is: There are three accounts on the (old) ledger. BTC, shitcoin1 from chain split, and shitcoin2. To send these anywhere, i have to restore the ledger in the first place. Then i can wipe/initialize it again. Now, i wouldn't call myself a Bitcoin maxi, if i would hold the shitcoins for longer, i just didn't feel the urge to sell them for BTC yet. These are small balances, too.
Of course, you could buy two ledgers, and/or other kinds of wallets.. and sure the extent to which various shitcoins are supported will vary from device to device... or even kinds of wallets, if you might want to move some kinds of coins to a temporary location until you set up your new device (presumptively your sticking with ledger.. sorry for your loss.. again - meaning the fact that you use ledger)
I am not that stubborn, i try to be open as well. What's your preferred ways? I have nothing against wallet.dat filse but i think storage of them is not ideal, and the ledger and almost any hw wallet has a slight disadvantage (because not connected to the internet, for example). EDIT: After thinking a little about it, using a seedword list (carved or laser-cut in hard wood or metal, because it's done offline and i got the machinery) as cold wallet, and the ledger as hot wallet should do it. Perhaps? Uptober they said.. was another false narrative from bulltards.
DOWNtober would be more applicable.
It's not over yet. Furthermore, it is also not good to get too caught up upon what others are saying, or short-term moves that happen from time to time.. including that we have had both UP and DOWN in October, so far, which even if there exists a slight inclination towards DOWN, so far, we are ONLY 11 or 12 days into the month... so not even half way. .and which way is it going to break? Are we going to revisit $25k? Then maybe I might start to become a bit pessimistic.. otherwise, I seem to just be seeing a lot of noise.. or is it just me? No, it's not. At least for my part, once i stopped listening to the noise i stopped losing sats/money. The old "zoom out" always helped in times of doubt. |

We cannot point out that this small decline is due to market reaction due to war. The movement doesn't really have any relation to anything as we don't see any big fuds regarding about the war and its effect to crypto.
Maybe you need to relax with that and since in short time span it recover the current hype is much stronger than current war issues so relax then believe that bitcoin will pump soon.
This minor battle may not have any impact on the price of Bitcoin, but it is important to monitor market updates considering Bitcoin's sell-off near the pump mark this week. While Mike Alfred has a different type of view: https://x.com/mikealfred/status/1711755035942780969?s=20CZ selling BTC for BNB. While i admit that i don't know how deep Mike's insight into the binance market really is... |

I told you that we were living in a world on the brink. Where every slight… every injustice… where every choice reveals our sins. And where have those sins lead us? Where have those sins led you?
As i'm feeling to do so today, i am giving you another free lesson: 1. Justice is relative. What one's considers as justice, someone other is considering as injustice. 2. "sin" is an old word for "consequence". Better try yourself to understand what you're writing. You're now my pet troll, officially. aaaaaw Dude you quoted him. There may be a shift in the universe. So far I am surprised at markets and BTC reaction to the new conflict. But oil will likely push upwards and gas will move upwards thus inflation will go up and interest will rise. 0.50% Fuck! We just double quoted him! Nooo! Triple quote! I have to counterpost a DSA pic to restore the universe's balance: EDIT: click-2-zoom (kinda)  Say welcome to the Veil Nebula. I already posted more detailed pics of the upper and lower (eastern, western respectivley) Veil nebulae in the past here, but i was up for a little experiment and mounted one of my DSLR Lenses (200mm F4.0) to my astrocamera, and did two hours of unguided 30-second exposures to stack this picture. I'm a little embarrassed disappointed by the low optical quality, but daylight (eyesight) photography is really a different pair of shoes. You can see how the fast optics collect much more background starlight, which resulted in a dense, though star-reduced sky. The stock market is rallying and Bitcoin is seeing a slow slide downward. I’ll admit, this is not the movement I was hoping for. It does feel like markets are returning to normal again though. Cheering wars and bad economic news in the hopes the printing press is about to be fired up while rates get slashed. The world is addicted to easy money.
This could be an extended action of the recent ETH (sorry for blasphemy) selloff, making dollars (or rubles) from the Bitcoin they aquired. |
