Maybe he didn't want to be found there and removed himself from that list. Or theymos could have made that change.

Or he could have just been really lazy and got a bunch of people who did not speak english very well to do the support stuff. I get the feeling that Karpeles was not someone who would be good at customer support.

366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you define "early adopters"? on: December 12, 2015, 12:39:39 AM
I consider the super early adopters to be people who were around up to the end of the GPU mining era, so mid 2013, just before the price went really high. As NorrisK said, we are all still early adopters, Bitcoin is still young and those of us here now are still a part of a niche market and a special group of people. The late adopters won't come until Bitcoin goes mainstream.

2009-2013: Super early adopters
2013-present: early adopters
When BTC goes mainstream (2020?) and later: late adopters.

Are you entertaining any lower prices?  I have been looking and I think this is prices a little high, but at the same time, I would rather buy from a seller who has a reputation.  Please let me know.
The lowest I am willing to go is 0.06. How much do you offer?

I know 1 guy here who changed his username recently, does that mean he paid that much (around 19,000 USD based on that times exchange rate) just to remove a few letters and numbers to his username?
If you're talking about Blazed, very trusted members of the forum can have one-off name changes for free. I believe the same happened with Lauda (I think they used to have a letter at the end of their name, not sure though) and Mitchell/Bitcoininformation. Since they are small/one-offs the admins can live with it and it will cause little confusion I expect, though if they wanted to change their names more I expect they would be told to buy Donator.
AFAIK staff members like Lauda and Mitchell can change their names. Blazed had to ask Theymos for the name change, and to change your own name if you aren't VIP or staff, you will need to ask theymos.

Satoshi Signed PGP, or GTFO.
Did Satoshi ever sign anything with his PGP key? I heard he never signed anything, and someone said it's useless unless he did. However, I don't understand PGP too well. Did Satoshi ever post his public PGP key anywhere?

I know he could sign a message from an early Bitcoin address if his PGP key is useless, but I'm curious whether it is or not.

Yes, he would need to sign a message from a few (more than one, the better, to prove the signer isn't just an early miner)
of his early mining bitcoin addresses. That would be very possible.

In relation to his PGP Key, many have said he had no such key, but there is this record according to bitcoin.org github:
https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/commit/19e0c74df2162d4510db5df9e50d5ac53b38c498

Satoshi never signed anything with his PGP key, but it was published. You can also get it from https://bitcointalk.org/Satoshi_Nakamoto.asc.

An alternative would be to have him sign a message with an address in the coinbase transactions in any of the first couple of blocks.

Edit:
That link seems to be broken, do you know where it is elsewhere?
I want to see if the two keys match or are two different keys for Satoshi.
S and N are capital, fixed above.

Satoshi Signed PGP, or GTFO.
He is either a hoaxer/scammer or a government op.
I concur.

And even if he was, I don't think he will reveal himself. People can speculate, but we won't know without any proof.

Since when has the Bitcoin foundation done anything productive? Last I checked they paid the core devs, but then they even left. What do they even do now? I don't think people will care if the Bitcoin Foundation goes away, and it certainly won't have an effect on much. Although I suppose mainstream media will be all over it about how "Bitcoin is dead" since the Bitcoin foundation will have just stopped.

No.
374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Theory: Which other cryptocurrency would people choose if Bitcoin would fail? on: December 08, 2015, 11:17:35 PM
Most people would probably jump to Litecoin as it is one of the most well known altcoins.
375  Economy / Digital goods / Re: [WTS] Full Member account on: December 06, 2015, 08:14:39 PM
what is trust score for this, it has any positive or negative feedback from DT or normal members?
The account has neither positive nor negative trust from any member here. It is neutral.

I can buy but in what section you use to post?
The posts are primarily in Bitcoin discussion and Beginners & Help.

0.05 could be a nice price for the deal...
Sorry, can't do that.

377  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could the solution to the block debate already be here? on: December 04, 2015, 09:39:15 PM
The problem with using multiple altcoins is that each altcoin has a different price. Altcoins are still just as volatile as Bitcoin, so they do not work like sidechains. Sidechains are kind of like altcoins, but those sidechains don't have their own tokens per se, but rather use ones from altcoins and Bitcoin. Since the transactions on a side chain are tied to the main currency e.g. Bitcoin, then the volatility problem isn't there with respect to Bitcoin. But with altcoins, there is a problem with volatility since the prices of those altcoins tend to change dramatically.
378  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Avoid Trading with KIWIFSP, Localbitcoins at ALL COSTS on: December 04, 2015, 09:35:48 PM
If you didn't use the localbitcoins escrow, then this is entirely your fault. Also, this belongs in scam accusations.

That's ridiculous. You can't blame the victim for being defrauded.
Well it is. If he didn't use LocalBitcoins escrow, then he was putting himself at risk. If the trader refused to use the escrow, then he should have noticed something was up since mos traders will use escrow; there is no legitimate reason to refuse escrow. He could have chose to not trade with the guy, but he did anyways, it was his choice, and thus it is his fault for being a victim of a scam.

Also, the guy you traded with may not have been the original owner of the account. There is a market for localbitcoins accounts, especially old ones with several hundreds or thousands of trades. These accounts are of course used to scam so it is possible that all of the positive feedback wasn't really for the guy who owns the account now but rather for the original owner.

He even admits he has high ranking alts:
I have 17 main accounts all in the senior, hero and legendary ranks and they all talk to each other and I have yet to be banned, so.

He's just a liar.   Look at his profile - he believes in fairy tales.   Roll Eyes
Well I wouldn't be too surprised if this account was made only to be annoying to protect other account(s) from losing the reputation. It is kind of like a vent, other accounts would be the professional side and then using this account would be his "I'm pissed at everyone and need to vent and rant about it" account which is essentially disposable.
