There are no signatures in these here parts and ChartBuddy only threads treads here.

 I doubt it - they're just explaining the "hack" or "lack of hack" since their system was implicated.  What I don't understand is how does the phone number come into play?  How was the phone used rather than the normal email/password login method if 2fa was not enabled?  Did the "hacker" send a text to Elon and say "I forgot both my email and my password, please let me disseminate critically important trading info to the general public immediately"?

 I'm no expert either but maybe some shorts got wrecked on the way up and other traders thought it was due to investors selling the news and decided to get out and sit on the sidelines to watch it play out?

 That is hilarious.  I need one of those

What no transparency? 

 

I have a couple of shares of The Bitcoin Fund (3iQ) ticker symbol QBTC on the TSX where management fees are %1.95.  Maybe this will push them to lower the fees.  Initially, they were %2.5 and my first though was how half of the held bitcoin would be eaten up by fees in 20 years but since they were TFSA eligible, I figured I'd be saving the taxes I would have had to pay on the profits and the TFSA doesn't allow for bitcoin self-custody (yet).   Also, there are no comparable assets to bitcoin and I don't want to be that bitebits guy rolling in fiat reserves from his McDonalds gig

Got a little ahead of myself with cygan's cap and forgot about the rollercoaster guy.  He's had more free mods than Jimbo now!

 Congratulations.  Seems as though you and bitcoin are mooning at the same time!  It's nice to see someone succeed in life - thanks for sharing

 You could still be in for the age-old issues of infection, extortion and theft but on a different level and at a much faster pace.

 Thanks for the tip!  Is this better?

 "Asshat Self"

A few years ago, I took a shortcut while making a hat for cygan.  I looked and looked for his original avatar in a large enough size to work with but the largest image was only 80X80 px and the square patch on the hat is about 250X250 px.  Never having seen a 1 Deutsche mark coin before, I didn't know the basis for the "bitcoin" he was using - I thought it was an image of a collectible but I coudn't find it anywhere.  Fast forward to today and after a couple of PMs I was enlightened.  I asked him if the 1994 on the coin had any significance and he said "No" and suggested that 2009 would be more appropriate.

 This is what he used to use:



and here's the new coin I minted today because as you know, there were no Deutsche marks minted after ~2001 (it can never be easy):



and subsequently placed on a newly constructed original:



as avatar-szed it looks like this


 Originally, I only made this one and only in this size:

 

I think all the corners I cut have now come back to bite me (only wrt hats though)

Here's another configurable, free countdown timer you can display as an image which gives you 20k impressions/mo





You can't import API data even on paid account (from what I can see) but you can get rid of the branding by paying $10 a month for an account which also gives you 100k impressions and configurable languages.

Then you can log in with a code and bypass captcha.

 There is a way - a bit Mickey Mouse though because I don't have want to share my web server (opsec).



without the background

https://img1.niftyimages.com/nr6h/cu6i/qhv5  *3 opens per view is killing my 10,000 free opens fast so I removed image tags from the no background version.

 I just used a best-guess date for the halvening and a free countdown timer.  You can sign up here and you'll get 10,000 image opens on the free plan.
The timer is fairly customizable - I added the background image but you don't have to... I'm not sure exactly how large an image you could put in your sig though... maybe use it without the image and resize the fonts?

 edit:

Also, you can get JSON formatted data with all the pertinent block info for free here:

 https://api.blockchair.com/tools/halvening

 and enter that as a source at niftyimages which will enable you to grab info such as "blocks_left"


 
 I set that one to update the JSON info every 15 5 minutes.

 last edit: JSON updating every 5 minutes
 
one final edit: with only 10k opens and each version taking 1 open per view, the math is killing the freebie account quickly.  Paying for API access would cost over 9000 per year. (no joke, its $9,120 billed annually)

Happy birthday, Bitcoin!

 


Sorry I'm a little late but I had some trouble with VLC on win10 and a 4k TV - it would only capture a 1920x1080 portion of the entire frame, VSDC - steeeeeep learning curve, EZGif.com - which would not play with me and my original mpg file and talkimg.com - just being finicky so I used postimages.org.  Been a tough day all around starting with the tankening... thankfully, both Bitcoin and I are recovering nicely

Kudos to https://www.thehalvening.com/ for the coolest halving web page which I used extensively to create the animated gif above.
