Flag supported. I see they created forum topic in September of last year but they recently activated again probably because of current situation in region. I am not saying this is a scam yet, but false advertisement of partners is not small crime and often leads to something much worse.

Passphrase are generated by the system This is not true, I can generate my own passphrases and use them for password managers or it can even be used for hardware wallets. People often mix passphrases with passwords, but both of them can be used in exact same way. they are not reused They can be reused same like passwords, but this is worst thing you can do. Some people even use single password for all websites and email accounts, this is disaster waiting to happen sooner or later. passphrase is longer and more complex Pasphrase is longer but it's not more complicated to remember than randomly generated password, that is almost impossible task. Using simple to remember short password can be cracked in few minutes, and it's unsafe for use.

Another thought: how fun would it be to use euro coins to stamp seed words into? Initially I was thinking this is a bad idea but then I looked the content of euro coins ands they are made from at least 75% copper, and depending on banknote there are nickel and zinc in different percentage. Now, copper has lower melting point than stainless steel but I still consider it a very good and cheap material alternative for bitcoin metal backup. Note that some countries (with their own currencies) may be using different and lower percentage of copper in their banknotes. Imagine one crazy thing... using silver coins instead of euro coins to increase value Lol, we all follow the same twitter accounts! I am not following this account, but this is certainly trending in twitter for bitcoin related stuff Abusing Fiat money is art: I have a 100 trillion dollar banknote hanging on my wall, and I am seriously mulling the idea of hanging also a few dollars.
I have something similar on my wall, as a daily reminder for real value of fiat currency papers.

This was a very close call and only few votes (32 against, 24 in favor) decided against banning proof-of work, but I think this story is not finished yet and they will try to do something similar in near future. If situation in world continues to get more crazy they could push any regulation change they want and people wont even know what him them. Can you imagine IBM is making special microchips dedicated for Bitcoin mining, and some politicians in Europe are still voting for ban

Here is a fork of Wasabi Wallet called https://chaincase.app/, which is available on iOS and which is running its own coordinator. I never heard about this fork and I am checking it out now, but real bad thing is having wallet that only works on iOS devices :/ Desktop version is probably more complicated to make, but I don't know why there is no Android version, this is just a fork after all, how hard can it be. I am sure originally Wasabi wallet will still work fine with some tweaks, but this could sadly mean much less volume and much less privacy.

What's the best BTC wallet that can run on desktop and fully open source? I'm mining through Nicehash website using GPU but getting paid in BTC and I want to store BTC as long as possible that's why I create this topic here, hope I'm in the right section.
There is no universally best Bitcoin wallet for everyone and it all depends what are your requirements. If you run full node than best open source wallet is Bitcoin core, for light spv wallet most people use Electrum wallet, and then you also have open source hardware wallets (Keystone, Passport, Trezor...). For storing coins long term maybe one of the best option is using cold storage offline air-gapped computer.

No, I didn't added the Etna suggestion, yet. Oh nice, there is still hope for Etna special edition Honestly, the raw material cost is nothing. 4€ for washers and a few euros for the stamp Are you sure it's still 4€ in all places? I heard $5 wrench attacked is now renamed to $10 wrench attack because of inflation and price increase Maybe it's good idea to stock up on steel washers as I am expecting price of metal to go up more in future, and you can always use them in real life. I didn’t explicitly mention derivation path as I didn’t want to mess up things. Maybe it’s better to state the obvious? “Don’t use any fancy wallet to generate the seed? I should include a derivation washers”? Might be unintelligible by the person who should get the Satoshi?
I talked many times before and importance of derivation path especially if you are using hardware wallets with BIP39, some of them are totally different by default. If you only use Bitcoin there is less chance of having issues in future, but add any other shitcoin and you could be having a lot of issues. Best thing would be to add name of the wallet (also important if you used Electrum for seed generation) on one of the top washer.

There is a list with donation addresss in the documentation of my-legacy. Donation addresses should be clearly visible for anyone who visits your website, and not hidden in some documentation page. If I couldn't find this addres until now than most likely nobody will ever find it and donate anything...that is just my opinion. because I believe the gain of anonymity does not out-weigh the benefits of a clearnet site for this use case.
One of the main points of your website is Anonymous service that only need email for registration, and I don't see anything bad with alternative .onion website. It's sure much better than changing clearnet domains all the time, and risk for getting attacked with ddos or hijacked website is much less. I don't know anything better at this moment, and I see clearnet websites going down all the time.

Is Binance worth more than the sum of all European banks now? Might be close
This is not even close if we are counting only legal and reported earnings from CZ and Binance, but who knows how much they have unreported. They made a bunch of money doing gymnastic escaping regulators for years, and I remember nobody could ever find real location for their office. I don't consider FTX to be real competition for Binance because CZ invested in FTX (some say he sold his pat) so they are most likely connected in some way.

ftw this is probably worst forum suggestion I heard recently, and russian section is most active with some great members and contributors. Should we also ban members from ALL other countries that ever started some war in the world or they are ''better''? I am sure theymos should then ban all of us including himself in the end, but bounty cheaters should be banned first.

Is any hardware or software wallet which is safe to keep large amount of BTC safe and secure?
Both hardware and software wallets are only keeping keys for your coins, so more important thing would be to secure seed phrase backup or private key. Software wallets are hot and connected to internet so they shouldn't be used for storing larger amounts of funds, for that purpose you can use cold storage. Easy way for achieving this is with hardware wallets (open source is better option), or you can use separate air-gapped computer as offline storage.

Regarding washers disposal, I think we can be satisfied with the more easy easy of disposal: dustbin, diapers, tossing into rivers… weather balloons, volcanoes and interplanetary ships might be a fun idea, but ultimately an overkill.
I see you are not impressed with my Etna suggestion but it would be so poetical you know, El Salvador is using their volcano for mining and you are using yours for destroying it... sort off.

Dear support staff,
History->Orders page show empty results. No orders currently available. Doesn't matter what date ranges selected. Please fix.
You won't find Kraken support staff here in bitcointalk forum, and btcx is inactive since July of last year. Better write them directly on kraken website, on their social media or send them an email with more details about this bug.

What I wanted to say is that governments don't have to put any effort into this; they don't have to ban ATMs or anything of that sort to force people abandon cash as people themselves will do the job for them. Like people are doing with social media, making everyone track them easily.
You know whats the best ''ban''? When you make people to choose themselves to abandon cash with fake benefit carrots while hiding all negative sides in the same time. It's not that hard if you think about it, just tell them it's for their ''security'' and ''protection''. Regarding Australia, I did read that banks shut hundreds of branches and several thousands of ATM, but I don't think that has to do with any government directive. As we all know, Australia had some of the harshest covid measures so no wonder that people will use ATMs/banks less if they can't even go out and it makes no sense for banks to keep them open if there is no people using them, as they do cost money. Add on that the info I read (don't know if its true) that 80% Australians prefer cards/online payment instead of cash and no wonder this happened to them.
Let's face it, all this is totally related with their crazy government decision, and people getting jelly soft... but it's obvious they are just puppets controlled by someone else. Is anyone else really believes in 2022 that elections and politicians are doing anything more than playing some bad circus show for the masses...not me. What are people going to do if something happens (not so sci-fi anymore) and there are no electricity to use credit cards, and all cash is banned?

The backend / server is currently not open source. The website itself is. I will consider making the backend open source as well, if many people are interested.
You can also consider making some fallback option, for manual and offline recovery of documents, without using any website. Maybe you could also add donation addresses, because I see you are doing all this for free and you need some funds for keeping everything alive and running. In case the domain is confiscated for some reason no data will be lost. All users will be informed via email of the event and the service will be available using a different domain.
I know about ipfs, but I don't consider using google cloud storage reliable as they can decide to delete everything at any time. Instead of creating many clearnet my suggestion would be to create one .onion website for browsing with Tor browser. This sounds like a reasonable solution and protection from potential ddos attacks.

@fillippone this is truly one amazing megapost and you even provided videos for lazy people (cool music but I expected something more Italian). Can you please tell me about material that is used for making Hermetic container? I have seen few of these before on aliexpress and ebay but I think most of them were cheap and made from aluminum if I remember correctly. It would add to structural integrity a lot if this could also be made from stainless steel. I have another idea! Hang each washers on a weather balloon. They can fly round half the world before bursting and the washer falling down into the ocean or any random place.
Exotic idea. He could literally send his bitcoin to the moon or maybe even throw them in Etna one by one, I hear this volcano has been more active recently. Just watch out not to burn yourself doing that fillippone.

I saw this news posted few days ago but I forget to post something about that. If looks like Block developers want's to replace everything in their hardware wallet including seed words, passwords and seed phrases with a single fingerprint This have disaster label written all over it, and from what I read most of the people don't like this idea, including me. Fingerprint is one of the easiest thing you can copy, it can be taken from anything you touch and it's easy to duplicate it with cheap silicone. There is no ''peace of mind'' in that, like Block Wallet team is saying in their document, so it's better to evaluate alternative options for people who don't want to be fingerprinted. Honestly, I'm quite disappointed at how this so-called hardware wallet is shaping up... Based on the @ o_e_l_e_o's post, it seems that there are no preventive measures for anything that's below the chosen limit, and considering that there are various ways of cloning the fingerprints [and other ways of acquiring it (e.g. by force)], this just introduces a lot of other risks to the equation. I never expected anything revolutionary to come from this project, but things are sure getting in wrong direction. Whats next on the line? Iris scanner, maybe dna from blood or urine sample for using Block wallet

Hmmm just when I started testing new Wasabi 2.0 testnet version First we had voting for ban of proof-of-work in European Parliament and now this news concerning Wasabi wallet and zkSNACKs coordinator. They are obviously pushing hard on all fronts and regular users don't even know how to react with all this changes related with bitcoin regulations. I think this could move people away from Wasabi to something that I tested last year and I think it's superior privacy project called Mercury wallet. More information can be found in Mercury wallet topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5334221.0

Interesting use case that can be used in real life and if I understand this correctly everything is free, anonymous and open source. I would suggest that you use some proper translation in documentations page (noticed some grammar mistakes), maybe hire someone to proofread everthing. My question is what happens if your website goes down for whatever reason (domain expiration, ban from government, etc.), how can someone recover access? No website means there are no more accounts to.

Baskin198 do you really need to create multiple topics with more or less the same content? On March 13th you created a topic called No one wants to speak against stake.com and today you created this new topic about Stunna. I know you created more topics in Scam Accusations section before, but you can't expect to get more attention with more topics. I am not going to attack or defend anyone here because I didn't saw enough evidence from both sides, and you should know the risks of involving with gambling websites and fact they can seize your funds at anytime (as per terms). Even trusted members like LoyceV are afraid to speak against them and believed their stories, by giving merit to their assumptions.
I think his everyday thick skin training resulted in super-soft skin and years of suffering, so he is probably unable to attack (or defend) others anymore I am sure he can send you merits also if it makes you feel any better.
