i was right people have no more money ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) ...let's hope it get better...wish i wasn't right on this one You were partly right. It's a very important nuance. Many don't feel this in their pockets. Some not yet and some will never be. Generalization is a big trap, don't fall into it.

How more excuses are you ready to produce
Since you are trolling, you'll ignore all the evidences in the world, no matter how good it is, aren't you? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) I feel somewhat sorry for all these people who ignored the "don't feed the troll" rule and tried to answer you nicely. However, if you go with this... tone, you may end up with no people to answer this... little game.

Altu' care ne spameaza tarlaua.
Problema e ca ultimele mele cateva postari raportate din sectiune de Romana stau de multisor "unhandled". Inclusiv acesta, din 1 Februarie. Si normal, daca nu li se da peste nas, se comporta ca atare. Din pacate nu cred ca le pasa ce zicem despre ei...

What is this :s protocol? Strange, my man page for elecctrum says there are only :t and :h options.
The online docs tell about more; a server can announce even a non-standard tcp port easily. supported protocols (“t” = tcp@50001, “h” = http@8081, “s” = tcp/tls@50002, “g” = https@8082; non-standard port would be announced this way: “t3300” for tcp on port 3300) I didn't need to know all those details, but it's all in server.peers.subscribe docu; it may worth a read.

According to Bitcoin's purpose on the doc written by Satoshi, it stated the purpose of Bitcoin as a P2P medium of exchange. But I see some companies using it for the purchase of Goods and Services which makes some governments interested in its regulations because the economy is involved.
Is this purpose going to take a turnaround? Because I see Bitcoin being accepted by some governments and regulated.
The problems is a little bit more complicated. Imho the goal would be to get Bitcoin useful for paying (everywhere) for goods and services. The problem is not that companies would use it for that. The problem is that the merchants pay for the goods, for the employees and also the taxes in fiat. Also - sooner or later - a lot of people or companies want to buy and sell bitcoin (miners have to pay for electricity and others, traders want to buy and sell, companies and individuals want to invest and hold, maybe sell some now and then....). And unfortunately the contact with "fiat world" goes through regulations. Without regulation Bitcoin use could remain somewhat limited (i.e. as a P2P coin, especially between individuals, who don't care much about KYC). This is how I see it. Not as a turnaround, more like "comply so you can grow further".

My main question is: is it possible for the electrum client to make unencrypted connections to servers?
From what I know my electrs server is not on SSL (at least I didn't set up any certificate there) And the command line I use for my Electrum is: electrum --oneserver --server 127.0.0.1:50001:t Edit: since @BlackHatCoiner wrote that this doesn't work for him, I will add that it works for me, I use it, it works. I've connected to it just yesterday (since I have no ports opened I run it only when I need it).

It's not bad. Clean indeed. Seems to be lacking dark theme though. The first thing I've noticed was that's not finished, although the 2021 year at the bottom would have made me think it is.
Some things to fix or improve would be:
* make the selection of currencies actually work, especially EUR and BTC (useful for altcoins!); it would be nice to also remember the current setting for next visit; yes this would also mean adjusting charts and everything related to the selected currency
* when I'm on page 1, I may not really want to jump to... also page 1
* the pages to jump to may be also useful on top
* the tables may be more useful for some to have the option to sort by clicking on column's header
* yeah, the 2 search bars
* the somewhat confusing buttons Trade and Exchange may need.. something more or different
Good job though.

Is it just me or people are out of liquidity ( money ) ?
From what i see : market , malls etc no people,or if they buy something...they buy basic stuff... in my area ...slow biz ...same in your country ?
Romania is my country
Inflation is on the rise, money printing goes brrrrr as usual, sooner or later the salaries will have to rise to keep up. Indeed, now some people may have less money to invest. Some others may be even struggling to buy the basics. This is more visible in the poorer countries, obviously. Also in the countries with better long term thinking the problem is not so big. I want to tell that even in Romania the problems may get way bigger (much higher prices and still the old incomes) in the near future. You said that in other countries there may be delay.. we are far from the "top of the wave" yet. And luckily the winter was not too harsh. ---- Interestingly all the selling businesses get richer, most rich people got richer, only the poorer one feel this. But this is how inflation works. This gap between the rise of prices and rise of wages is where people are stolen from. And yes, those who have put away fiat "for hard times" see its value dimming. ---- After the Russian mess clears out (but it may take years) and the gas pipes either start getting filled, either US and Arabia fill the gap, the price rise will stop. In some cases it may be even reverted to lower/more bearable prices. But again, it may take years.

What you guys think?
1. Bitcoin was made to avoid, where possible, banks. If greed will get bitcoin to banks we are all fucked. 2. If banks will have big amounts of bitcoin, they will probably start doing reserve banking off it. Lovely. 3. Banks can, for various reasons, lock or seize the money you think it's yours (but.. not your keys, not your coins). All in all, you have a chance to get some pennies richer if you do this, but on the long term, both you and Bitcoin itself will lose. This is what I think.

Hello. Sorry if this is also covered elsewhere, I am new here. The thread I created has been deleted (probably) and I cant find it anymore. Not even by searching with my name or subject. Why did that happen? I want to start a new series of NFT related posts under a single locked thread that's why I am asking.
This takes me to my second question.
Can one make a thread read only? I know there is the option to lock it and unlock it at will, but is this the only option? Meaning, can't one have it locked all the time, so its like sort of an announcement thread, that everybody can read, but only the owner of it can post?
Thanks for your time folks.
Problem 1. I don't find anything removed. You can go to your own profile and on the bottom area you'll see link to your posts and topics started. I think that the NFT topic may have been moved if it was posted initially into a wrong place. If you still don't find it, you can use this 3rd party website to find your posts, including the removed ones. Problem 2. Since lock/unlock solves the problem, I don't see any good reason to implement something extra. I guess that those who created the forum thought the same. So no, there's no "read only" option. Make your post in notepad, unlock, paste, lock back.

You need to ensure that you add the correct Bitcoin wallets. Are your coins on legacy, nested segwit, or native segwit addresses? If you know some addresses that hold your coins, I would connect the hardware wallet to Electrum and see if those addresses pop up as yours the way bitmover explained it above. If they don't, you haven't entered the correct seed.
I advise the same. Get electrum (from electrum.org) and try to see what addresses (and funds) you get for the bitcoin part. Why Electrum? Because you can ask here for options related to the derivation path to use. And because ledger live sometimes simply has bugs/errors.I think that the problem may be simple and one of the two: * either you had legacy (1...) type addresses and now you've got SegWit (bc1..) ones * either you had multiple accounts and now the wrong one is recovered Best would be if you know at least one old good address. I really hope that you have written down the correct seed...

for a month or two
You should have spent your time better that hoping you'll ever cash in for whatever no-name scam sites or 0-value coins. Shortly: * Cloud mining is scam. * Most airdrops are worthless and waste of time. Keep in mind that: * if it's too good to be true, then it's a lie * any website can write down a number when you log in; that doesn't mean you'll ever get that money Now, I'm kinda happy you didn't have "friends" to lure into the scams you've fallen into. I hope that all you've lost is some free time.

help needed to withdraw from the electrum testnet wallet?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean - or understand - by withdrawing. If you want to transfer between wallets - it works like normal bitcoin, just the addresses look a bit different. If you want to send to an exchange and sell for fiat - well, that's not an option because testnet coins are not valuable (they are for free), hence exchanges don't offer deposit addresses on testnet blockchain (which is also different than main blockchain) You can see testnet similar to a different coin that worth nothing.

and hold my hand through some things.
Be very careful. While coaching may be OK in many fields, it can easily turn south when it's about money - and even more, money that can irreversibly sent away. What I want to tell is that you have quite a high chance that instead a proper coach you end up with a scammer. That's why it's recommended to ask the questions publicly, wait for multiple answers and see which ones are actually helpful.

(on the assumption that there are assets)Will short-term promissory notes make settlement smoother?
Just imagine gold. Digital. So the value doesn't need to be "promised". Also at the point the transaction is confirmed (saved into the blockchain), no further things are necessary. The whole point is to not need to trust a central authority, nor the sender. Promissory notes would be just an unnecessary complication.

3. Use the forum. Not only there’s an ungodly amount of information already written in here, but there’s also a whole bunch of very knowledgeable members that are ready and willing to help you out. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, nobody was born knowing.
Although the title is imho somewhat misleading, although the formatting could be better, the story is interesting and the conclusions pretty good. It's interesting to see that it was greed and not the technology that made you "give Bitcoin a second chance" and research deeper than "what's on TV". (please don't take it as criticism) And although the point about hackers and scammers is there, I'd also add something to your point #3: Like everywhere on the world, the forum has its fair share of scammers too. This means that one should be extremely careful about what info he shares, extremely careful about private messages and impersonation, even more careful about people inviting out to other platforms and even whatever is posted publicly, since not everybody's intentions are good. The idea is to ask publicly, but while sharing as much info as possible gets the problem solved easier one has to be careful to not share sensitive info, and also wait for multiple replies and see which can be indeed helpful. However, you seem to have gotten most of the things right ( as already said, you still have to learn about the risks on your computer, for example) and I'm happy for you. Enjoy the ride!
I strongly advise you to avoid downloading content from PirateBay; while it may appear that you are not paying ten dollars, you are putting your device's security at risk, which makes it a more serious problem in the long run, especially now that you are in cryptospace, where virus/malicious content is one of the main reasons why people are losing a lot of money. Well, if you know how you can protect yourself then I don't think that would be a problem because I see that you are a fan of using PirateBay.
While movies are not malicious (from what I know), one can easily share there executable files which double-clicked can deploy Pandora's box. So indeed, extra caution or even avoiding such platforms can be a very good idea. (Cold storage or hardware wallet are another option to consider, depending on the skills, funds, need for convenience).

See how generous this exchange is.. Do trade if/when this goes live.
BTW, the over and under rounding goes both ways depending upon the strength of the last digit. Also, a trading fee is being deducted.. sometimes as BTC.. if not present then as the altcoin traded. FAQ mentions it but will add that to the trade hist and/or Open Orders and before placing orders as well.
I clearly understood and I know how rounding works in code (both up and down), just I've never encountered this and I find abnormal. I mean, in all exchanges I've used the rounding went like: * if I have to pay, it rounds up my payment * if I have to receive coins, the number will be rounded down So no matter what are the 9th+ digits after the decimal point, "the bank always wins". Everyone is still free(and shall remain) free to withdraw. I might end this test soon by month end. Thank you.
When my help is no longer needed/useful, let me know so I'll withdraw. No rush, but, as possible, please don't make me check the platform an entire month just to see that's nothing new there.

I don't know how the things happen in UK, but in my country somebody would have been already taking that drive or computer in the same day and selling it for parts or simply the metal - either somebody working there, either (more likely here) homeless people living near the dumps.
So it doesn't matter whether the HDD can withstand the pressure or the corrosion. He's not only searching for the (plastic) needle in the haystack, it's also quite likely the needle is no longer there.
Quite sad story imho. He should move on. He should have acknowledged long ago that the goddess of fortune was not on his side and should have moved on...

I've seen people raising funds by simply posting their bank details to get money sent there. That's already not Bitcoin. I know that the bank can also do nasty things, but I think that you understand my point.
On the other hand, a Bitcoin platform similar to GoFundMe may use a custodial wallet for collecting the funds and have the power to review/seize those funds. (Of course, also an address can be posted for collecting donations.)
So "bitcoin literally fixes this" is pretty much incorrect also in my opinion.
