I just accidentally stumbled upon proof positive that Stefan Molyneux has been a member of BitcoinTalk since August 11, 2011. The only problem is that I'm reluctant to post my findings since he's still active here, coupled with him never declaring [un]said user that he's Stefan. Odd! Me's in a pickle on this one. PM me if you're interested in my findings, but please don't divulge the info if I opt to give it to you.

Hey, Vlad, quick aside, not that an aside is warranted for this thread, but I digress, albeit evoking 'digress' too early was ... Where was I? Oh yeah, Vlad, I believe it's been asked before, and if the case apologies for asking again: Is your avatar a depiction of your true self? Taxing my memory, I wanna say yes, but unsure, hence the question <insert 'digress' now>.

I was just thinking that the high price of BTC lately has made Paul Vernon even more rich.
His theft proceeds have appreciated in value at least 2 fold.

Congrats BigVern you played the game well.. like that piece of shit from Gox.
Who said he was hacked then a little later told his lawyer to say he "found" a few hundred thousand BTC's on a usb drive stuffed in his couch cushions (no fucking joke he actually used that excuse)

Meanwhile Pauly boy played the game perfectly.
Never allow transparency and lie your ass off and cry Troll + FUD.
Claim all kinds of super duper hardcore extreme security tech..
Such as BitJohn's long explanations of how secure their cold storage system is here on the forum before.
Build a fan-base of millennials looking to cheerlead for a cause.. "my exchange is better than yours" types.
Then hire some happy go lucky yes men that will do anything until the end.. when your gone.
Because you took the money and ran for it.

And good for you..
Because there is no regulations then you all have fuck all to say about it really.
And when any of us cried for accountability or transparency you all chanted Troll.
I know i was harassed and banned for EXACTLY that on Cryptsy's troll box 50 times
and eventually perma banned essentially.

I told you so™  Grin
..since 2013 for fuck sakes !

Oh and YES i did warn people the exact same about Mt. Gox far faaaaar before it went down too.
And once again i was right..

Spoetnik right in 2013.
Spoetnik right in 2014.
Spoetnik right in 2015.
Spoetnik right in 2016.
Spoetnik right in 2017? Mes guess si.

In the event of a necrobump, can all subsequent posts be deleted? There are rare times when necrobumps lead to a continuation of quality discussion, which I have yet to witness.

Here are consecutive posts after the bump (and this is page 12), just to drive the point.

This should have never happen. I mean its software fault, there should be safe procedures for that.
If fee is higher than amount spent, block it Sad
This is possibly some error done by the software or by the sender. Such fees could only be possible if you send tens of thousand of bitcoins in one transaction. The miners are very lucky if they received 15 btc in one go.

This is a shocking reality in bitcoin reality and has happened once in a lifetime. This should be recorded in bitcoin history as the highest bitcoin transaction fee ever recorded.

Well it is not that big of an amount to be honest, compared to the ones that are being sent every second,  couple a  minutes ago I saw a transaction of 100 btc, like how that is even possible, how are they able to send that large amount of bitcoin for fees, whoever has that amount must be filthy rich to be able to send for miner's sake.
I just wondering , how can this type of mistake possible? I think fee are automatically being charged right. This is such huge huge mistake ever , I can't even imagine if that was me. Pheww. Looking at current btc price and 15 btc as fee. I'm going to shop and buy myself a rope. LoL !

The fee is whatever is left from the inputs that is not spent. If you are using some a wallet this shouldn't happen unless there is a bug.
Wow, what a huge amount! This guy spent fortune for a fee. But how this could even happen, unless is some kind of bug. The fee is way to big for amount spent so transaction couldn't even be executed. Or am I wrong?  Anyway, this was one in a time lucky event for miners.
MAy be someone made a mistake by putting 15 btc fees instead of 15 Mbtc (noob mistake ?)

There are two pages worth of this crap. Should there be an auto-lock feature? Any arguments against it should be able to be justified through manual unlocking of the thread (either via staff or the thread starter). It can be after x days or x pages.

(I just PM'd OP to lock the thread, and hopefully that'll put an end to one of them




Perhaps a mass purging of all threads in

  • Bitcoin Discussion
  • Off-topic
  • Gambling discussion
  • Economics & Speculation

would help.

It's surprising - even Technical Support has started to attract the swarms of ants... but not Technical Discussion, right?

For storage the safest wallet is my mind

(and of course the thread is started by a newbie, what a surprise)

The following poster in the last linked-to thread above during his pumping-up-the-post-count days while still a pup (emphasis below mine):

The price it´s going up fast. And this is just the beggining, 2000 sats in the next hour and more than 3000 sats by 00:00 (The launch)

Its exciting to watch isn't it?

4166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Happy 8th Birthday Bitcoin on: January 03, 2017, 09:45:12 AM
Some fun info, since everyone loves to learn!

Some of the things Satoshi picked were just educated guesses,

“My choice for the number of coins and distribution schedule was an educated guess. 
It was a difficult choice, because once the network is going it's locked in and we're stuck with it. 
I wanted to pick something that would make prices similar to existing currencies, but without knowing the future, that's very hard. 
I ended up picking something in the middle. 
If Bitcoin remains a small niche, it'll be worth less per unit than existing currencies. 
If you imagine it being used for some fraction of world commerce, then there's only going to be 21 million coins for the whole world, so it would be worth much more per unit. 
Values are 64-bit integers with 8 decimal places, so 1 coin is represented internally as 100000000.  There's plenty of granularity if typical prices become small. 
For example, if 0.001 is worth 1 Euro, then it might be easier to change where the decimal point is displayed, so if you had 1 Bitcoin it's now displayed as 1000, and 0.001 is displayed as 1”




On the initial release of Bitcoin,

In August of 2008 the domain name bitcoin.org was registered anonymously through anonymousspeech.com, which is the email SN used to communicate with others.
Around this time SN contacted others such as Adam Back and Wei Dai and Hal Finney and suggested they read a pre-release to the white paper. No copies of this pre-release (other than the abstract) are known to exist, the most likely candidate for keeping a copy was the late Hal Finney.
The abstract of this pre-release does not include the word bitcoin but instead this proposed white paper says “Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party”





On October 31st, 2008 SN published the white paper on Bitcoin to a mailing list for cryptography through metzdowd.com. He later says he created the code before writing the white paper.
On November 9th the project is registered on SourceForge.net, a website used for open source software at the time. Sourceforge has since garnered a poor reputation, the Bitcoin code is currently hosted on GitHub. GitHub allows software developers to work together with ease, very helpful on open source projects.



The P2P foundation profile of him (SN) states he was in 2009 a 37 year old male who lived in Japan. By monitoring what date the age changed on his profile a birthday of April 5th 1975 was found.
 On April 5th 1933 FDR signed an order outlawing US citizens from holding gold, on January 6th 1975 sales of gold in the US were made legal again.



Jan 3, 2009: The Genesis Block is mined. Satoshi would wait another 6 days until Jan 9th to release the first version of the client, 0.1, to others.

Included in the coinbase data for the Genesis block is the message, “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.”



The first transaction happened on the 12th between SN and Hal Finney.



In October of 2009 the first exchange rate was established based on electricity costs to run miners at the time, $1 in electricity could be used to mine roughly 1,300 btc. That is 0.000769 cents per btc.

The first update, a release to version 0.2 and the first difficulty increase happened December 30th 2009 from 1 to around 1.1829. Within the next year the difficulty would rise to over 1,000.



SN contributed to the network for around a year. His last public post was on December 12th 2010 just a day after posting, “... WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.”

January 12, 1866 – The Royal Aeronautical Society is formed in London. (Think: To Da Moon!)

4168  Economy / Scam Accusations / 20 DOGE at 20doge.com is a FUCKIN' SCAM!!! on: January 03, 2017, 08:45:13 AM
@Fortify: Before I begin, allow me to go on record in stating that my assessment is based on hearsay et al. and that I'm not worthy to disclose nefarious actors in this space due to my track record of registering domains then letting them sit idle, among other hideous crimes to humanity I've no doubt committed.

That outta the way, the following is why 20 DOGE is a scam:

1. It's a cloud mining thingy.

2. Its owners can't spell:



3. The site's URL sucks monkey balls bigtime --> https://www.20doge.com/public/landing

4. Its owners can't no do good grammar, and did I too say it already no do good spelling?: https://www.20doge.com/public/landing

Quote
Dogecoin is a fun, new and rapidly growing form of digital currency. This form of digital currency is called “cryptocurrency” : is type of digital currency. Cryptocurrency is completely anonymous, decentralized, and extremely secure.

Dogecoin is used with a wallet on your computer, your smartphone, or a website. You can use it to buy goods and servuces, or trade it for other currencies (both other cryptocurrencies or traditional currency like US dollar).

One of most popular used for Dogecoin is “tipping” fellow internet-goers who create to share great content. Think of it as a more meaningful “like” or upvote. With real value that can be used all across the internet.

If you're unable to read where the misspellings and improper grammar usage is in the above, then by all means invest your precious into 20 DOGE's cloud mining thingy, making sure to come back to this thread with your horror stories of how you were ripped off and now seeking pro bono help to unify with your precious from the very folks who told your moronic ass to not partake.

Liar, liar, pants on fire! Goat gave MtGox a neg.  Tongue That said, like WTF! Dudes, somethin' doesn't smell right. Tens of thousands lose half a billion and ONLY 1 neg? As for Cryptsy, also tens of thousands lose moneys, yet very few, considering, comment on this thread. Further, Sonny Vleisides of BFL remains outta jail in spite of not adhering to his probation judge's final "or else" warning, Sonny being on probation as part of his sentence along with a ... wait for it ... $100 USD fine for bilking mostly the elderly to the tune of over $50M USD with his online lottery scheme.

The only saving grace for Cryptsy's scammed clients is that they're in line for pennies on the dollar if and when the Class Action comes to a close unlike Sonny's lottery victims, some of which have literally died of old age, and Sonny's LFC's victims (some also pushing up daisies) thanks to the receiver of that fiasco, Johann Gevers, also an avid Bitcoiner.

Normally, I fuck with Newbies requesting shit, but in your case your post is well written and comes across as secure, thus ...

Assuming you have the txIDs of all the transactions to Cryptsy's know wallets, I'd say you're more than halfway there in proving your case. Same true for all others in a similar situation regardless if they were later fully refunded because the servers were wiped clean. Think about it.  Wink Wink Wink

Haha, I appreciate your time and your restraint in messing with me, I was expecting some flak for sure. I do have transaction receipts for my Cryptsy BTC address from another exchange (as in email confirmations to a cryptsy wallet), do you suppose they would be of use?

again, many thanks Smiley



I lean toward a yes, that would suffice, albeit it'll only show moneys entered Cryptsy. I'm sure a clever person could glean from the blockchain an address that funded Cryptsy and claim it as there own, what I've alluded to, and in no way saying that that's your ploy, then perhaps Mr. Clever will get unjustifiably rewarded at the end of the Class Action.

Hashing24's Investards' investments are protected because all payments stem from BitFury's newly created bitcoins, ergo Hashing24 IS NOT a scam.

BitFury's newly created bitcoins haven't been put into the wild for days now - https://blockchain.info/address/1DrK44np3gMKuvcGeFVv9Jk67zodP52eMu - ergo Hashing24 IS NOT a scam.
