I came here with information and wishing to learn more about devcoin and mcxnow.

If this is legitimately true, then go back and delete all the comments you made about mcxnow in all those other threads that weren't about mcxnow.

Then create a SINGLE new thread.

Give it a subject of "I want to learn more about mcxnow".

Then in the first post of your thread explain what you know and ask any questions you have.

There is absolutely no need to litter a half dozen threads with your "free moniez!" spam.

You're throwing pearls before swine. He knows exactly what he's doing. He's pimping that crap all over the internet. https://www.google.com/search?q=%22ANiceJewishBoy%22+bitcoin

The more problematic rub is this: Paypals protection policies only apply to real world, tangible goods. They do not apply to virtual goods.

So if Thiefy McScammerton decides to charge back after he got your BTC or if GabeN decides to steal all your Steam games, you're shit out of luck.

Also good news because you are not full anonymous with bitcoin.

You can be fully anonymous if you want to, using tor.

Hahahahahahahaahahaha, no.

I'm not an expert on computers but doesn't the brain wallet provide a unique output when somebody inputs random typing like......

3903450EFZDFZOJF3405340F9ZDFF034T038TGERPJEPRFP034FZEFZEF03450324534508ZEFZOFJZ ELFJ345


In other words it would be unlikely anybody else would type that exact code in and get the same brain wallet results?

As Dan said, humans are a bad source of randomness.

For example your string above fails on several levels
- you are using only a very small selection of characters from the available keyspace
- there are several repetitions of sequences

From the line above alone I can conclude you most likely use a keyboard with french layout. Your left hand was hovering slighty above qsdf, your right hand was hovering over the lower part of the numpad, you moved the right hand over to the alphanumeric keys twice (once in the middle of the string and once near the end), you were subconsciously typing on the right hand with a rhythm of thumb-ring finger-index finger (producing the oft repeated 034 sequence), similarily you subconsciously used a rhythm of ring finger - middle finger - index finger with the left hand (producing the ZEF sequence)

How secure is this method that I used?

Use a factory reset android telephone to access bitddress.org

Then use an offline browser on the telephone and open bitaddress.org (offline) and run brain wallet.

Type in an impossibly large and random alpha numerique code.

Generate address

Take a screenshot of the private key and public key using screenshot function on android phone.

Disconnect PC from the internet

Transfer screenshot from android phone to a brand new and encrypted sha-256 usb drive

Print out paper wallet and store in envelope

Take photo with a digital camera of paper wallet and store on SD card.

Delete screenshot on android phone.

Remove encrypted usb drive from PC before reconnecting to internet.

Store SD card, encrypted USB drive and paper wallet in safe places.




 



Android's RNG is not random

Believe it or not, there are 200 characters in that post. How much is it worth, though? 0.

Well, if you don't want it, imma gonna sell it on Bitmit.

Huh, both are orginally from Russia, St. Petersburg. This looks almost like a static IP/cable modem. The machine is still up right now.

Also why cant the sec get anything on him if it really was a ponzi?


Actually if you read the court documents what's happened so far is that first Shavers tried the Sovereign citizen route claiming the court has no jurisdiction over him, which was promptly laughed out of court, then he was adviced to prepare an accounting of his finances which he promptly neglected to do then had a date to appear in court, which he promptly neglected to do and by now the court has frozen all of his personal accounts in response. The actual trial is gonna take some time (years).

So how does he buy food and hire a limo without funds?

Sometimes people upload things that happened a long time ago to their facebooks

Wow I learn something new about this currency every day.

Openly posting ways to wash away dirty money using this currency. Without being too much of a moralist or hate promoter, should not the admins be taking note of such conversations?

I am sorry if I sound too Gandolfish.

Ha, this is nothing. The rabbit hole goes way deeper. Welcome to the forums.

i keep getting "The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. Please try again later." even though my last post was a lot longer than that. Any ideas?

The forum erroneously counts "logging in" or "sending PNs" as "posting".

The thing is, the software doesn't look for posting, it looks for POST'ing Grin

Pretty much. Any write action to the forums tables essentially.
355  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is the concept behind E-Begging Bitcoins? on: October 28, 2013, 03:22:32 PM
I often see signatures which are looking out for bitcoin donations. Many of these folks have sort of commercial interests.

What is the deal with this? Why to beg for money when you can simply earn it?

I will tell you the answer for an appropriate tip to the adress below

This would be a better hypothetical:

You have contracted a very communicable disease, unknown and deadly to 99% of the human race. There is no cure. You are a carrier and unaffected.

Do you:
a) let yourself be rounded up and put into a FIMA camp;
b) kill yourself since it will be quicker and less degrading than the camp; or
c) go on the run, knowing that you'll be responsible for the death of most people you meet.

d) lob of infectious pieces of flesh and send them in the mail to a randomized set of people all over the globe in an attempt to spread the disease as far and wide as possible. Also bury some in timecapsules to ensure another outbreak several generations down the line.

If you are saying that pirateat40 was a criminal, then by the same logic, you should be saying that MtGox and Btc24 are criminals,

I've been saying that for months. Years even.

Thanks for playing.
