There were certainly some who did that, but there is another way to look at it. At least they learned to sign a message and one day they might realize that bounty hunting is a dead end and not worth it. When that happens, they might look at those merits as some sort of incentive to start learning and focusing more on Bitcoin.   

Exactly. Even if some tried to abuse it or succeeded doing so, I would rather look at the positive side and on those who are today contributing forum members and maybe became such because of the positive experience they had with OgNasty. 

If you don't know someone's gender, you don't use "it", you use "they". That's a singular "they". "It" refers to objects and things. We might not know if satoshi is male or female, but we know he isn't a thing. I prefer referring to satoshi as "he" simply because it's a male Japanese name. If he used the username "Frank" I would also refer to Frank as a "he" despite not knowing his real gender. Satoshi is a "he" to me until proven otherwise.

Is that a fan fact or a fun fact because it could be both.

Not necessary because the singular "they" isn't gender specific, so you don't need the he/she pronouns, which are gender specific.

Why am I not surprised that one AI recognized a different AI?!

If Bitcoin Core developers still consider their software experimental and it still says that on the About Bitcoin Core tab, why should the information on Bitcointalk be different from official claims? I say leave it as it is until those who work on it decide to change the experimental prefix. It would be interesting to ask them via GitHub and see why exactly that is and what needs to happen for Bitcoin Core to no longer be experimental?

There is also this blog post by Ledger where they state that they no longer allow unconfirmed transactions to be used for new transactions by default. This particular setting can be changed, but honestly, I don't see Jerry changing any of the standard settings without asking multiple times how many other Ledger users in the world have also done it.


That blog post is older than the source you linked to, so maybe the information is no longer correct.   

I used Windows 7 in the past and after upgrading to Windows 10, there were absolutely no issues with incompatible software or bugs with the applications I work with. I have never had Windows 8. If you are worried you might mess something up, just save all your important files on a clean USB that you can recover from in case of OS difficulties. I am still on Windows 10 despite being offered a free upgrade to Win 11. I am not in a hurry to start using the newest OS because Windows 10 still receives all important security updates. Windows 8 is outdated though and you should abandon it.

Are you talking about an input that was still unconfirmed at the time Jerry tried to send the first transaction (the 1 sat/vByte one)? But during the time the transaction failed and when he created a new one for 3 sat/vByte, it got confirmed, so he was able to send the second one? I don't know. I think Ledger Live won't allow you to select UTXOs as part of new transactions that haven't yet been confirmed on the blockchain.

Another thing that is confusing is the part where the gambling site he was trying to deposit to showed him a different address compared to the one he initially saw. This is rather strange. I don't gamble that much, but I don't think your gambling address on your casino account is supposed to change that quickly or that you can have multiple ones in the first place.     

The term "pairing secret" sounded familiar and I could swear I saw it somewhere before. Turns out that Coldcard's Mk2 hardware wallets use pairing secret as well, but only between one secure element and the microcontroller. Ledger's Donjon team successfully attacked the older ATECC508A secure element chip with laser beans back in 2020, but such an attack is not possible on the newer chip models. 

I think it's going to be great for the entire hardware wallet industry once it finally comes out. Not just the version that Trezor and Topic Square bring out, but each subsequent one that will get worked on and improved by other development teams based on the open-source codebase. It's worth pointing out though that even Trezor is considering not making everything completely open-source. I guess they understand it might be dangerous or too revealing. They have stated in their press releases/documentation that the chip will be as open-source as possible. People seem to constantly forget about these two underlined words that can make a big difference.

Nakon onog vikenda gdje su zabilježili strmovit pad i gdje se je već vidjelo da je sve propalo, LUNA je u jednom danu doživjela povečanje cijene od nekih 3000-4000% ako se ne varam. Ako je tad bilo moguće prodavati s obzirom da se je prije toga već stalo sa kreiranjem novih blokova, to je bila odlična dnevnica za one koji su eventualno kupili LUNU dan prije.   

Srećom nisam nikad imao dodira ni sa jednim od njihovih coina.

Evo jedan stariji dokumentarni serijal kojeg sam doduše davno gledao ali ko god nije, moja preporuka da pogleda.
Wonders of the Solar System
Ukupno ima 5 epizoda od po 60 minuta. Brian Cox na vrlo zanimljiv način predstavla gledaocima daleke planete i nevjerovatne stvari koje se na njima dešavaju.

I can't believe that the Swedes threw away a 3:0 lead against Canada in the 1/4 finals. I remember they had a similar devastating defeat in the last Olympic tournament when they were ahead 3:0 vs Finland and ended up drawing the match 3:3. They then lost in overtime. But this defeat against Canada looks even worse seeing they conceded 2 goals in the space of 30 seconds.

If he only has two different BTC amounts judging by a different topic of his, it should be easy for him to recognize which one is his long-term storage and which one he uses for daily spending on the balance of the two accounts alone. If we are talking about bigger numbers, it gets more complicated. I am not sure exactly which user data can be copied from the old computer and pasted into the installation folder of the new one. It's certainly something the support can answer.

1 sat/vByte shouldn't be a problem unless Ledger connects to a node that doesn't accept transactions with those rates. Nodes can be configured to not accept anything below x sat/vByte because they don't have an unlimited capacity. But it doesn't make sense to do that especially if the mempools aren't too congested. But if they do get congested, transaction fees spike, and memory becomes a problem, those paying the lowest transaction fees (1 sat/vByte being the lowest) will be dropped from the mempools and won't be accepted until the situation clears up a bit. 

It's hard to say what exactly happened because you don't know what you saw yourself.

If you buy a new computer, you are going to have to install Ledger Live on it again and re-add all the individual accounts. The accounts won't have the names you used on the old system because that is stored locally on your hard drive, not on some cloud or server. When you install the BTC app, for example, and start scanning for existing accounts, Ledger Live will find whatever has been previously funded and call them Bitcoin, 1, Bitcoin 2, 3, 4, etc. There will also be ticker to distinguish between nested segwit and native segwit accounts. After that, it's up to you to rename them to whatever you want.

If you have 1 nested and 1 native segwit account, both will be called Bitcoin 1, the only difference will be the description and the ticker. The balances in all accounts will be the same as you had on your previous computer, just the names aren't correct.

Not quite sure what you are asking. If your Nano S is still fully functional, then you don't have to recover anything from seed. The seed has already been entered into the device. You have only changed your computer. If the Nano S gets replaced, then you have to recover everything from seed. No need to worry about derivation paths. When Ledger Live scans and checks funded addresses, it does that on the standard paths. Those are the same paths you derived those addresses from on your old computer.

The thing is, you can't just have the BTG app, for example. You need the BTC app as well. Ledger has standalone and dependent apps. In this particular example, BTC is the standalone app and it contains all the code to function on its own. BTG doesn't and relies on its standalone app (Bitcoin). Only installing BTG won't allow you to carry out transactions without the BTC app as well.

USDT is another interesting example. Since it's a token mostly used on TRON's or Ethereum's blockchain, you are going to need the standalone ETH or TRON app as well. You need its codebase plus the fees are paid in either ETH or TRX. Your USDT won't even be visible in Ledger Live's portfolio if your Tron address isn't funded with some TRX as well.   

RBF being enabled or disabled depends on the wallet and your personal settings. Ledger Live has it enabled by default but you still can't bump the fees from within that software. So even if your transaction is sent with RBF on, you can't send a second one with higher fees. With Electrum, you can. If the original transaction was RBF enabled and hasn't confirmed, all you need to do is right click on it and speed it up. I think the option you need to select is called "Increase fee" or something similar.

No, that's not how Bitcoin works. That's how Ethereum works. UTXOs are always spent entirely. Nothing is left in that address. You can see that here. Whatever funds didn't go to the recipient, were sent to the sender's change address.  

That's not always possible. Imagine if you consolidated all your inputs into a single one that now holds 50 BTC. If you have to send a transaction, you have to do it from that 50 BTC UTXO. You can of course use ChipMixer to break the connection, but in case you don't want to do that or know how to, you have to break up that 50 BTC UTXO. Whether or not that is a good way to use Bitcoin is an entirely different dicussion.

Well, you obviously want it to say that the privacy is high. I have never paid attention to the ratings blockchain explorers make though.

Neću direktno da ti odgovorim na pitanje da ne bio otkrio nešto što eventualno ne želiš da saznaš dok ne počneš gledati, ali ako te zanima da li je Winona Ryder dio i četvrte sezone ili ne, pogledaj ovo. tamo kažu: "The cast for “Stranger Things 4” includes"...

I did come across it while making this collection but decided not to include it since there were several other similar topics in the gambling boards. But I will trust your word for it that it's the first one of its kind and include it in the table.

Thanks for the confirmation. I will add it to the collection.

That's unfortunate. What is done is done. You have experienced yourself what devastating effects trusting Facebook and their ads can lead to. The reality is, they are scum just like Google who will take anyone's money to advertise and make visible whatever the person paying them wants. You will hopefully never make similar mistakes again. We now live in a time where you should consider every offer a scam unless prove it isn't. That's the best way to stay safe out there.   

I came across this one but decided not to add it thinking it was outdated. The thread was created in 2014. I have asked the OP how often he makes changes to his thread and adjusts the ratings if the reputation of certain platforms require so. I will consider adding it after that.

Quite outdated just like you said. A lot could have changed in the meantime. Those platforms he considered to be excellent could have gone bad and vice versa. I also didn't like some of the conclusions he made like saying I am adding all Croatian casinos to my blacklist because of the bad experience I had with one of them. I have never heard of any of those Croatian-based sites to be honest, but such prejudice can be harmful. 

He seems to have made some updates to his OP recently and that's why it jumped to the top in that particular sub-board. I don't remember seeing it either while I was carrying out my research. But I like it and will include it in my collection.
