Shouldn't it be in your profile rather than this thread for signing purposes? Like this:  Aaaaa... screw it! Here is mine 36rvTyJ8dRAWXSAN253V7Xpg8Du9RT11tPNo. If someone hacks your account they can delete that from your profile. By having it quoted here by someone else they cannot delete it. I've quoted yours but as that's probably a nested Segwit address you won't be able to sign a message from it so it will not help recover your account. Please sign a message to prove ownership of the address you stake. |

Not really. If you use Electrum and make a wallet just for the chips, import the private keys to the chips and then send them to another wallet then the privacy will be exactly the same but you have more control of the transaction(s). |

I know of a similar method, which is what the person who introduced me to Bitcoin used and adviced me to consider, which is to use one of the most popular sites as a published Bitcoin address. As you know, with sites like this, when you deposit bitcoins the internal wallet immediately moves it away into another address.
Of course, this does mean that your published address is associated with the site if people look hard enough, but that's not a problem for me. But if they look up the address they see it is emptied out to all sorts of other addresses, and in fact spent to other people.
That also means that you are not in control of the private keys so the Bitcoin is not effectively yours while it is held at a site/service. I've been around long enough to know the risks involved in that. The other thing you are not in control of is the transaction fees that site charges you to withdraw. Doing it the way I do my Bitcoins are as safe as I keep them and I have full control over what fees I pay, even when moving my chips to another wallet. |

I've always been curious as to why people mix their bitcoin. I know privacy is the number one reason, but when do you personally mix your coins?
For me, it's specifically when I need to transfer a decent sum of Bitcoin to another party and don't have enough in my hot wallets to cover the transaction. Whenever I have to dip into my cold storage, I send what I need to transfer to a mixer before sending it to my recipient. Can I assume that this is the major reason why you guys tumble your coins? Or am I wrong, and should use mixers more often than I think I need to? I'd like to hear your reasoning, if you're comfortable with sharing.
For a number of reasons, I have published some of my Bitcoin addresses on this forum and other places on the internet (like the signature campaign). That means that anyone can find those addresses and by using tools readily available find all the other addresses in that wallet. From time to time I empty that wallet using ChipMixer and send the chips to a 'private' wallet that I've never published an address from. That way nobody knows how much I'm worth. I wouldn't publish my bank statements on the internet and that's effectively what you do everytime you publish a Bitcoin address. |

so if i want to mixing bitcoins in the following way
Wallet 1 ---> Wallet 2 ---> Chipmixer ---> Wallet 1
Transfer-Fees:
Wallet 1 ---> Wallet 2 YES
Wallet 2 ---> Chipmixer YES
Why not Wallet 1 ---> ChipMixer Wallet 2 ---> ChipMixer Chipmixer ---> Wallet 3 I don't see any benefit in sending from wallet 1 to wallet 2 rather than just sending both directly to the ChipMixer deposit address. Also if you send everything back to the same wallet you started with then you haven't really done anything to enhance your privacy. If you use another new wallet then there will be no way to connect that wallet with the 2 source wallets. Chipmixer ---> Wallet 1 YES( send to wallet ) OR NO ( you can use export the key and add to the wallet 1 directly)
did i understand this correctly ?
Should i use the sweep Function for the private key ?
I would recommend importing the private keys and not using the sweep function as that will allow you better control of the transactions fees. Sweep functions usually just use the recommended fee. |

I believe this is a good theory, conspiring with large entities before selling BTC through exchanges in order. Could be the largest PUMP and DUMP ever.
But in the end its still a theory, we have no way of verifying that the amounts sold in red font are from mt. gox wallets.
If you read my post 2 above yours you'll see we have a very good way of verifying that those sales were NOT Mt. Gox coins. That would give a much larger average price than the 10k they actually got. |

This is possibly one of the dumbest ideas I have ever seen. Dumping coins in this big batches is also making him lose money. What was he thinking? (if its true). And yeah sadly we are truly in bear market now which will be very hard to recover.
Most of it it seems to be idle speculation. Having read the official document https://www.mtgox.com/img/pdf/20180307_report.pdf all it actually confirms is that they sold 35,841.00701BTC at an average price of $10,0026.92 between 27th September 2017 and 7th March 2018. My guess is that would have happened in a number of OTC deals staggered over that time period. If they had got around the 18k mark then yes you could conclude they dumped on the highs and started the sell-off but that doesn't really add up when the only got 10k. |

MtGox liquidator sells 30k BTC. Did they cause the recent crash? I think we were overdue - but they probably added pressure.
I doubt it had any effect. From the wording in the official document, I think they probably sold it off over a period of several months in a number of OTC trades. It was 35k BTC @ an average price of $10,0026.92. https://www.mtgox.com/img/pdf/20180307_report.pdf"Between the 9th creditors’ meeting and this creditors’ meeting, with the permission of the court, I sold a certain amount of BTC and bitcoin cash (“BCC”) that belonged to the bankruptcy estate." |

I've been doing some useful posts in this week, but it was only in the local forum, and no I am not getting any there, maybe my luck here
You're not likely to get any luck unless you get in the habit of reading at least the opening post and the last few pages of a thread before posting. You're not eligible for this, try and find threads that you are. |

He is pretty dumb to sell at $6k when he could have sold those Bitcoins for at least above $10k OTC. Don't know how such people are even assigned tasks where they don't have any knowledge of the field.
Why do you think he sold at $6k? Don't know how people are even assigned tasks when they believe everything that some random person writes on a public forum. I didn't have time to check this yesterday bit as the numbers are clearly stated in the official document I have now checked. 35841.00701 BTC sold for 38,231,389,537 JPY 1 JPY = 0.0094 USD so 38,231,389,537 JPY = 359,375,061.60 USD So the average sale price was 10,026.92 USD, not the 6k claimed. |

* Take Vehicle Without Owner Consent
Isn't that considered as a robbery ? Every judicial system that I'm aware of has serious charges (and jail time) for robbery. If you took the vehicle while the owner was there and they felt compelled to give it to you, that is robbery. If you took the vehicle without the owner being present, it is only Grand Theft Auto. From a legal definition point of view, theft requires intent to permanently deprive the legal owner of possession. Taking without the owner's consent was brought in to cover things like joyriding where all that is intended is an unauthorised use for a short period of time. Often people will be charged with TWOC rather than theft simply because unless they have actually sold the stolen vehicle it can be difficult to prove intent to permanently deprive. * This UK legal definition. |

Hello, Did you update your rules? I have 120+ activity score, but i am still Member instead of Full Member Thanks  If only there was some way to find out... like looking at the OP of this thread to see if it has been updated... maybe the information is hidden deep in the first two lines. |

Here you go: https://bitcointalk.org/merit.txt.xzSimilar to trust.txt.xz, it'll be updated weekly. It will show only the last 120 days of data; someone else should archive the old ones if you want them. I am especially interested in analyses of this data which could point to sub-communities where the initial sMerit is exhausted and new sources are necessary, and people who might be good merit sources. Edit: Note that for a little while I had user_to and user_from as names, but I decided to change it to IDs. Hi Theymos, Would you mind giving me link to download full data of the forum related to merit (receivers, senders and their ranks, boards in the forum, etc.). Thank you very much for your help. That is the link in the post you quoted. You have to manipulate the data yourself and crawl the forum for the data as to ranks and boards. LoyceV has already started to do some work on that. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3078328 |

Correct. And ALL of those could have been sold in November. Or in March. Or spread evenly every day between November and March. Or any other possible arrangement of sell orders and any number of exchanges.
The OP is making sensationalist claims that these bitcoins were specifically sold in specific amounts on dates when the market took a significant dip. He is claiming that the dip is directly because of the selling of those bitcoins.
I've seen no believable evidence that the OP's claims are anything more than his own wild imagination.
As a trader, I can confirm that is what moves markets  But more seriously a little of the movement today probably is related to the release of that document yesterday. |

I see nothing in that report about specific dates when bitcoins were sold, nor anything about the quantites of bitcoins that were sold on those dates.
Perhaps I overlooked it? If so, please let me know on which page to find those dates and amounts.
There's nothing about dates just the quantities. 35,841.00701 BTC 34,008.00701 BCC https://i.snag.gy/EMpLmk.jpg |

Waiting for 30 minutes or one hour is not a problem but for me it takes 20 hours to get queued so I'm little bit shocked because it never happened to me before.And instant withdrawal option is not available for me when I did transaction,so i thought that site was under maintenance.
I just explained to you that you have to wait for the next instant withdrawal to be requested so you cannot control or predict how long that will be. If you don't believe me hover your mouse over the ' i' next to the 'Instant withdrawal' checkbox on the withdrawal page. believe me, this never happens to me, as long as i make an instant withdrawal in bustadice, it always works and there is no problem at all, it seems there is something wrong with your withdrawal step so the instant withdrawal does not work. you must be more careful to make withdrawals OK, I read what you said to mean you didn't use instant withdrawal. That as the name implies should be instant. I've had waits varying from 30 mins to 12hrs on a slow withdrawal so I assumed that was what you were talking about. What do you mean by it's unavailable, do you get some error message when you try an instant withdrawal? |

Thanks for your insight.
another question, how would you feel if one of the people added to DT by theymos had the hypothetical record we have been discussing?
I've never really paid much attention to the DT bun fighting. I'd guess theymos has his reasons for trusting that person. There are some members of DT that tag people to try and fight scammers and cheats.... and others that tag people to retaliate for making accusations about them. I did see theymos recently brought up the idea again of getting rid of DT and that might not be a bad idea. Until then the ~ character can be useful in modifying one's trust settings. |

ah cool - so the person in this hypothetical situation is a scumbag then?
That would be my default position until such time that they could provide sufficient evidence as to exactly what happened that could explain why they are not. I'd say we are at 99.9% scumbag certainty in my book. |
|
|
|
so in this hypothetical situation.. if I said it was the good old US of A.. and someone got Informal probation, would you hypothesize that they would do it as an innocent party?
No. I would think that possible with more serious offences in the US but not something as minor as this. I guess TWOC could be parents making a naughty child learn a lesson, or an angry GF reacting and trying to cause a fuss..
The onus would be on them to prove something like this happened. |
