Not bad, it works instantly without annoying captcha on Tor browser. The About Us isn't very convincing though: We were founded and remain headquartered in the Netherlands, which means that our users are protected by stringent European consumer privacy laws, including the GDPR. These are widely regarded as the strongest privacy protections in the world. Privacy laws in the Netherlands look good on paper, but many companies and government branches violate privacy laws.

The project has instant games with a unique take on where the winning numbers come from . They're taken from the last decimals of Bitcoin's USD price. We source our price information from two esteemed platforms, CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap. We have custom API's which deliver us updates every 10 seconds. We call one, sleep 5, then call the other. each is added with the last and divided by two. Thus giving us a steady price update every 5 second, going down to the 16th decimal. Can you share exactly how I could reproduce your 16 decimals? I've only seen Bitcoin prices with 2 decimals in dollars, and that's what most (if not all) exchanges use too. It doesn't look like this can be made provably fair, which means it's trivially easy for you to cheat. I'm not saying you're cheating, but if it's not provably fair, players can never know for sure. But why not an even better "random" alternative directly from the Bitcoin blockchain? Hash results, even total BTC block fee for even easier reading (which I last trialled for a giveaway). i thought of that.. but thats every 10 minutes. l0tt0's games are instant.. so that 5 seconds inbetween games is key. One way to creating multiple rolls per Bitcoin block would be by mixing it with some sort of crash seeding event. At least that would make it provably fair, although the cut-off for new blocks, especially if you get an orphaned block, will still be tricky.
As for the wallet, thats not a bad idea.. but I could be posting anyone's wallet. That's what signed messages are for.

When you connect accounts through their writing style just as FatFork did, we will say it's not an evidence enough. Maybe a coincidence It depends: FatFork quoted a few posts with 5 of the same words, tspacepilot used his " training in Statistical Methods for Natural Language Processing" to do a thorough analysis to find patterns. I'm sure both accounts are controlled by same person looking at; Coincidence of active and exit of both accounts; Writing method; From same locality; The merit flow; Based on all this, would you say LoyceMobile is my alt? The writing style is different (because 90% of the posts were written on a keyboard smaller than my drink), I never sent Merit to it, and I use the account at different times (and locations). That only leaves the same local board, which I barely use anyway and could easily avoid if I wanted to.

That's why I have a healthy ignore list. I still wonder what happened to Piggy. It reminds me: maybe @TryNinja can add a PM feature to his bot? Having to use telegram or a third party site is enough of a hassle for me that I just don't see enough value in it to justify that. I can use forum search for my username if I was so vanity-inclined. I must say I like seeing when I'm mentioned on some local board I can't read I wouldn't see it by just reading the forum.

Yes, if you want anything beyond web browsing (for example, streaming), Mullvad VPN isn't that good. Overall, I get the best speed from iVPN. Sometimes countries like Australia and Japan give you early access to the content because of their time zone. Btw I just saw that they have New Zealand but these countries would be a good addition too, why not? Also, more servers mean better connection for everyone. If person lives in Indonesia, he will benefit from Australian or Indonesian server. I guess we have a totally different use case. I don't use streaming, and I wouldn't care about a few hours earlier access. I have no idea how fast internet to and from Australia is, it's a remote country and submarine cables are expensive. I usually use servers a bit closer to my location for best results. Those tech savy people can setup a cheap VPS with OpenVPN and port forwarding. What you're saying is basically setting up a personal VPN with a dedicated IP, or am I wrong? And if that's the case, wouldn't it kinda defeat the purpose of having a VPN since we would be getting a dedicated IP that could be linked to ourselves considering the fact that no more users would be using that same IP? Or were you just referring to the use case of circumventing the limitations imposed by Mullvad regarding port forwarding? It depends on what you're trying to accomplish. If you want a static IP in a certain location, a cheap VPS could work very well. Even better if it uses NAT and shares it's IPv4 with many other users. I've seen bundles for multiple cheap servers in different locations for this purpose. Any adversary will only see your server's IP, and without access to the webhost, won't know your real location. But long-term, if an adversary gains access, you're no longer anonymous. At least with random IPs from a standard VPN provider all traces are (or at least "should be") gone the moment you disconnect.

That's like saying it's a problem Mullvad's VPN is only available for subscribers. That's normal for businesses. I would prefer if Mullvad spent more money into increasing server speeds, adding more locations and improving overall performance Did you experience server speed problems? I usually get the maximum my internet connection can handle. They have 669 servers in 43 countries. I haven't tried most of them, and I can't think of a reason why I'd need more locations. instead of paying this money to Google for using their search engine because we have duckduckgo too and other alternatives. They are just reinventing the wheel by offering Mullvad web browser and Leta search engine and I see no point into it. I like Google's search results better, but not it's privacy. So this could be a good solution. While it's a bit of old news, I think it's still important to post this information here - As of 2023-07-01, Mullvad has removed the support for forwarded ports[1]. While this is not a deal breaker for some (or most of their clients) I think it's important to highlight considering that it has some uses for people that are a bit more tech savy. Those tech savy people can setup a cheap VPS with OpenVPN and port forwarding.

You just made me more paranoid That's a good thing using bitcoin for me is like driving a car with little understanding of what's under the hood and I lack the skills to get said car roadworthy again in case of a breakdown. But you know how to drive it, you know you have to lock it, and you know parking in a bad neighbourhood is risky. And you also know that's still no guarantee it won't get stolen. Financial freedom comes at a price. - Don't keep large sums of money on a software wallet. So, basically, to use Electrum safely, you shouldn't use it for much. After reading the title, I was expecting a topic about offline usage after closing the curtains and running from RAM.

If you use notification bots, it will not be difficult to complete and exceed your weekly post quota. The forum doesn't have weekly post quota. I know what you mean, but it sounds really bad if that's why you're creating posts. I was okay without notifications for years, but it got a lot easier with this: Well, I have a notification bot, but even so, it continued to use a lot of the fantastic tool that the forum itself has: WatchlistIt wasn't very intuitive to use, until I read this:

I won't be commenting further given the racist comments made in similar threads. How can a comment be racist if all we know about you is your nickname? So if Timelord2067 isn't on DT at the moment, what exactly is the problem here? It sounds to me like the other DT members have done their part in suppressing his potentially damaging feedbacks, and that says to me that the system (however broken or imperfect it might be) is functioning as it should. Agreed. Timelord2067's feedback is far from DT, as it should be.
I'm just afraid he'll leave me more incomprehensible feedback: / _ \__ _ _ __ __| | ___ _ __ / _ \ / /_)/ _` | '__/ _` |/ _ \| '_ \ \// / / ___/ (_| | | | (_| | (_) | | | | \/ \/ \__,_|_| \__,_|\___/|_| |_| () If anyone can read this, please translate

I'm pretty sure you don't own 167ZWTT8n6s4ya8cGjqNNQjDwDGY31vmHg (Balance 8,999.00622648 BTC). At best, you're just wasting everyone's time. At worst: This makes me think you could be a scammer.

Just for peace of mind. I know Electrum is open source, but there have been cases of wallet software generating known seeds. I think my extended words will give peace of mind. Unless you're using Electrum for offline cold storage, none of this matters if the software is compromised. I did generate my seed words on a air gapped computer That's only useful if you keep the wallet itself offline too.

Which among the below was not done by you I checked my seclog log, and got one more: June 20, 2023, 01:52:21 PM - <a href="https://bitcointalk.org//index.php?action=profile;u=1341921" style="color:#606060" >krishnaverma</a> - password reset via email<BR> December 10, 2019, 02:10:01 PM - <a href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1341921" style="color:rgb(128, 128, 128);cursor:pointer;text-decoration-color:rgb(128, 128, 128);text-decoration-line:none;text-decoration-style:solid;" >krishnaverma</a> - password changed<BR> April 18, 2019, 04:11:19 PM - <a href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1341921">krishnaverma</a> - password reset via email<BR> February 17, 2018, 07:16:43 AM - <a href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1341921" style="text-align:left;text-decoration:none;color:rgb(128, 128, 128);">krishnaverma</a>- password changed<BR> (I'm too lazy to convert it to BBCode, so click to view it) As already said, no one changed the password at all. I concur. I remember changing it once more few years back and that time also someone guessed , changed my password and made 1-2 unwanted posts from this profile. I find this hard to believe. And I find it quite a coincidence you post about your password just a few days after I left you a neutral tag about plagiarism from my DT-account.

LoyceV's post count is 23k+ KingsDen's post count is 2k+ This already means that LoyceV had made 21k+ more posts than KingsDen and these 21k+ posts are still in the forum. So LoyceV deserves higher pay than me. Maybe it is the reason legendary members earn more than Snr members and so on. But on a second thought, it could also mean that ChipMixer had already paid for those 21k+ posts. So, posts in the past are already paid. I am just reasoning from the both sides of my brain It's just like in real life: your previous job already paid for the experience you gained, and yet, you'd expect your new job to pay more because now you have more experience They already paid for these 21k posts, but these old posts continue to get visibility. Let's take one of popular topics that LoyceV made as example. You can try to imagine how many people visit such topics and see sginature ad in opening post. Or people who come to Bitcointalk from Google search results, they also see advertisment. So, advertiser for these posts once, but he get benefits from it in long term. Exactly. Instead of $4 per post, a campaign could for instance pay $2 per new post and $0.01 per existing post per week. Of course, not all old posts are on boards that show signatures, and some will be on irrelevant boards, so rates can be adjusted accordingly. It would be interesting to see the click-through rate of old vs new posts, but only the companies advertising campaigns have this data. However, LoyceV's idea is not out of place but I doubt that any manager will implement that because on the long run it could encourage laziness on the side of the significantly higher numbered posters. If the payment per old post is proportional to the clicks they receive, it shouldn't even matter. Even in existing campaigns, members sometimes become inactive. Usually they get removed after a few weeks, but I never got the logic. It's free advertising, so let them! Then, there’s a clause in the project I'm promoting where less than 5% of the posts are permitted to be made on a thread more than 5 pages. This simply shows that Best_Change believes that posts in more than 5 pages doesn't get good visibility. Is he right? This will largely depend on the thread. Spam Mega threads are pointless from the start, while serious technical threads can still be very interesting even after many pages.

While this is unprecedented, I can wholeheartedly say that it's news I welcome with open arms. I'm not gonna lie, these past few months have been a struggle trying to keep up with the reimbursements, and judging by my slow pace, it might even take more than a year for me to fulfill the full reimbursement for Yo!Mix. You fucked up, owned up, and made up for it. That is quite rare, especially considering you're in a country where it's a substantial amount of money. I've seen people abandon their Bitcointalk account for a lot less, so well done. Kuddos to YoMix for showing mercy and rewarding good intentions and effort.

can images hosted at google-drive, one-drive, etc can be embedded into the posts? Try it if yes, then in my view that would be the best way of going forward, no third party websites required. Unless you own Google and Microsoft, those are third party websites.

Yes. But what are you trying to do? Usually those requests mean someone's trying to brute-force existing addresses, which won't work. I don't want to search for specific patterns like 1Love, but create many addresses and pick out the best patterns that I might like. That's going to be a lot of work. You can't humanly read millions of addresses, and vanitygen creates that in seconds. In the past, I've brute-forced mini-private-keys, and ended up with about a gigabyte of data. I could search for keywords, but even millions of addresses are barely enough to find something nice. Suggestion: create a list of possible keywords, and use that as input for vanitygen. That way, it can search for thousands of different prefixes at once, and you may hit something good. Does VanitySearch also support 12 or 24 seeds? No. is there possibly a possibility to convert a private key afterwards to a seed? No. I think I read something that you convert it into bites and then the bites into words. Well, yes. But that will just be another way to write down your private key, it won't give you a seed phrase that a standard wallet can use to derive your vanity address.

- 0.00007484BTC and 0.00018709BTC
- 7484 SAT and 18709 SAT
What if someone writes 0.0000749 BTC? Would you guess it's $2, or does it look like $0.20 unless you accurately count the zeros? My personal preference: my LN wallets are set in sats, all other wallets in mBTC.

Honestly, I'm not sure if guesses and assumptions are enough even for a neutral tag. Depending on the case, I've used it: Far too many red flags. I advise to stay away from this user, it looks like an exit scam waiting to happen. See Reference link.
This user lies, and I don't trust him. I think this is an exit scam waiting to happen, and I advise anyone not to trust their website. See Reference link.
dkbit98 is right: this guy can't answer simple questions. He avoids them, and lies hoping to dismiss you. I don't trust him, and recommend to avoid his website. See Reference link. In OP's case, people should really stop trusting Newbies. Whoever sends money first to a Newbie can't be helped. To quote upper management: Honestly, I think that someone that naïve can't be protected. Even if every inch of the page had been full of warnings, he still might've fallen for it, since he wasn't even thinking about the possibility of being given evil instructions. The scammer was a Jr Member, not some Legendary.
