If satoshi becomes active again on the 10th anniversary. Then...?

Old members saw Satoshi, when he was active on bitcointalk. But for those (Including me) who have bad luck, who have passed the almost 10 years to hear about Bitcoin! They will ever see Satoshi again on Bitcointalk ?

I read a thread before wherein Theymos and Satoshi is discussing about bitcoin and blockchain technicalities and that actually blow my mind. How lucky Theymos for interacting that legendary icon, isn't it?

Though, I don't know what thread it is as I'm just browsing some threads back then and that thread caught my eye. I know, deep down there, Satoshi is watching us. Lol!

Hello, can I take part in this contest with a pencil drawing? I ask this question because I cannot design on a computer or smartphone.

I think so, as long as it's an ART.





Cool and I thought that's a foot. Hahaha!
Happy 10th anniversary bitcointalk.org!

Good thing they also share it on Facebook.

Hackers have been distributing a compromised version of the official Tor Browser that's packed with malware designed to steal bitcoin and spy on users. Security firm ESET says it's been going on for "many years." http://ow.ly/KXTC50wOt53

Geez, we are all clueless that ToR had already been attacked by hackers for years. What else could be next then?

There's no way you could directly blame anything on Bitcoin, though. If these people couldn't use Bitcoin, they would just use something else.

The fact that being pseudonym had been taken advantage by these people. They see it as a gateway for criminal acts considering it took almost 4 years for authorities to caught these maniacs. Imagine of how many videos are being sold from their 8 terabyte storage.

I pity those children.  Cry

Indeed a roller coaster ride, it sounds cliche but this word suits best for the movement of bitcoin.

Though, bubble really burst out last year of and even by  now there is no sign of bull run and more likely to be on a stable manner. While some says that the movement is more organic growth but personally this is what made some people distant their investment, all they want is quick bucks in their pocket.
3446  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: BW.com - serious warning!! on: October 18, 2019, 03:43:44 AM

The general logic is that the more volume an exchange generates, the more people are trading there. That used to be the case with high volume exchanges, but in the last year or so high volume is a worthless metric.

Seriously yeah, since last year I heard some exchange sites tampering the volume just to rank up in coinmarketcap and when you look upon the site there is nothing specific volume. And by far, this reason had made less reliable for coinmarketcap. To be honest, I'm just using it now for checking the coin ranking.
3447  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and kiddie porn on: October 17, 2019, 12:39:39 PM
You give people privacy, they use it.

Probably they ABUSE it.
And this by far is sick and gross of pedophiles. I might assume that the site is the one who advise to use bitcoin as mode of payment to those who want to hide their identity.

On the best side, the criminals are now behind bars, however some surely will wait the news to be over and business as usual again.

Hi guys, we are building an automated market for exchange goods and services with crypto.
Please check our website if you're interested: www.ethconomy.io  Wink


Just visited your site and I thought that you have already some goods and services posted on your site. And I sense that you're most likely to have a token or do crowdsale?

However, would it be better to advertise it when it's fully functional? I mean people will definitely have a not-so-good impression about your site. It's kinda plain and even don't have Menu.

Hello there, EmCoin.

I think you posted on wrong board.
Please move your Ann thread in the Announcement Section. Just click the move button found at the lower left side of the page.

Move it here. Announcement ( Altcoins )

At this day, why would you engage in bounty hunting in the first place? You risk getting scammed, the project might flop and your earned tokens will be worthless, it might never be listed on exchanges, and even if everything works out, your reward earned during weeks of posting and clicking can end up being just a few dollars. It's not 2017 anymore, when you can earn hundreds of dollars for some retweets, people should move on already.

Apparently, they're taking their chances to earn even they know they the risk beyond it. However, few times are enough not to continue wasting time and better yet move on.

Perhaps, even ICOs regain their spot, people won't buy it anymore because of the risk and definitely just a waste of time and money.

I guess everyone here should boycott the bounty campaigns, let's see if they can still raise the money they needed.
3451  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pricing everyday items in SATs on: October 17, 2019, 06:32:56 AM
FYI 10 thousand satoshi is simply 0.00010000 or 0.0001 BTC. Is that 0.1 mBTC? I don't even know, i also refuse to use that.

Haha 0.1 mBTC is actually confusing.

Tbh, I prefer to read 0.0001 mbtc than 10k satoshis, I don't know but reading it on decimals is much easier. Or maybe if this value had become our norm of daily spending then we get be all used to it.

I would love a physical representation of Bitcoin and I'm sure over the years, i've seen the coins that have a QR code basically stamped on them.

Nah, obviously people don't want anymore to carry some coins and will prefer to have the QR code to be scan on machine and on their phone as well.
3452  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One Satoshi, From Which National Money Are More Valuable? on: October 17, 2019, 05:28:30 AM
Perhaps time will come that one satoshi will have an interesting value while fiat already eaten by deflation.
Nothing to compare for now since both are not that worthy but one thing we can assure is that only bitcoin will have a decent value afterwards.
3453  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Problem with Watch-only wallet and bitcoin address on: October 16, 2019, 04:21:14 PM
ps. try using TestNet for testing these things. that way it won't cost you anything and you also don't spam bitcoin network. Electrum wallet supports TestNet.

OP wanna try things even out if his control. Even though that cost him, it seems he got the answer he's looking for.
Though now I wonder what's with the 228th address and why he picked that? Hahaha!

One thing I realized here, everything in crypto is such a genius.
3454  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Localbitcoins is intentionally trying to lowkey steal from its customers (me) on: October 16, 2019, 02:08:30 PM
I am sure though that people behind LocalBitcoins are not allowing the goodwill and reputation they worked for years to go to waste.

But they seem reluctant and quiet about the issue. If they really care about their reputation and considering this isn't the first time, they should have at least a control team that handles this kind of issue. Honestly, implementing KYC is becoming the escape goat of fraudster.

Though not really fan of LB, and just use to buy some satoshis before, hence not used on storing my coins in any exchange site.
3455  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright as "Bitcoin creator" at a conference in London!!! WTF??? on: October 16, 2019, 12:12:22 PM
This conference is indeed a circus and I don't know why people are still buying it. As they say, bad publicity is still publicity as so Craig Wright.

While Craig Wright was in fact the author of the whitepaper and all of Satoshi's posts on bitcointalk.org, I feel he should give more credit to his partner in crime Dave Keilman who died a horrible death before BTC's rise to popularity.

I'm sorry? I think I didn't get you right.
3456  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [GUIDE] Bitcoin - A Guide For Beginners (FREE eBook) on: October 16, 2019, 09:52:22 AM
snip

I just downloaded your ebook and even had quite  read a couple of chapters. Can confirm them had been written in the simplest words   sutable for the wide audience. However, on behalf of my 7-years-old boy, I would like to find book  for children of the primary school age clearly explaining what is bitcoin. I'm tracking all relevant books, but no luck so far.

Is your little boy also fond of bitcoin? Seems at early age he understood what bitcoin is. Guess, an infographic or animated books can help him to cope more, you know kids easily engage to those and not on boring text books.
Though not sure if there's really such infographic books.  Roll Eyes
3457  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Aegis Authenticator, a decent alternative to Google Authenticator and Authy on: October 16, 2019, 12:13:09 AM
I have been using Authenci for a long time, since I entered this market! However, it has many inconveniences that make me uncomfortable. This article is really helpful to me. How can I transfer my data to this aegis platform?

Read this.
If you do a backup though, the exported .json file is not encrypted.
I downloaded the app on my old phone to have a play around with, and when I tried to export my database I was met with a pop-up containing a check box for "Keep the database encrypted". I assume you have to have first encrypted the database with a password before being offered this, so perhaps if you haven't added a password then your back ups will be in plain text.

While I think that's a downside of it.
3458  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Aegis Authenticator, a decent alternative to Google Authenticator and Authy on: October 15, 2019, 07:48:44 AM
Thanks for the heads up, I was actually looking for alternative.

Just downloaded it and easily imported all my files. Btw, the fingerprint unlock feature is cool!
3459  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for your feedback! on: October 15, 2019, 06:04:09 AM
Website is so plain and boring. Not an expert but as a trader I wouldn't trade for such kind of website.

Without ICO I wish to see a a great product of yours soon. Please send your website link to check and share the feedback about it.

I assume those guys have enough funds for the project to run, at least a year.
3460  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Double Airdropping of EOST and GPAY on IXX.com on: October 15, 2019, 02:44:22 AM
New exchanges fold so quick and this one claims to be the "world's first trading community" and ive never heard of it
im not touching that exchange haha
 

Sounds like you've been pissed off with the idea and piling up shitty projects.
You're not alone haha well not unless they really have a powerhouse team and backed by known companies.
Tbh, I'll just go all in with Bitcoin than to waste it with these projects.

Thus, a KYC for a worthless airdrop is a big NO. Don't be fooled.
