Hey everybody, just thought I'd share the news that there will be a penumbral lunar eclipse this evening or tomorrow morning if you're me. Its cool because it coincides with the moon being full, so you ought to get a pretty good view of it from almost anywhere around the globe. You can check what time its going to be happening in your local area here: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/map/2020-january-10Of course, you're welcome to ditch everything you know about the sun, the moon, and space to instead adopt the flat earther explanation of lunar eclipses, which is that it is caused by a " mysterious shadow object" that happens to float in front of the moon every once and a while. Happy eclipse viewing! |

I don't think so, for me this thread is like being at home, I will simply walk outside to keep my 2 favorite threads updated (Bitcoin Prehistory/List Exchanges Hacked) and collaborate in my local section, to return home quickly.  I've always liked this thread since I first set foot in it, about 13 months ago. It does have a bit of a cozy feel to it. Though sometimes I (and perhaps a few others) bark like the house bulldog when a visitor pisses me (us) off. Whats funny is I tried to get Flying Hellfish to post more in here as I thought he would fit in quite nicely, but he told me that this thread scares him. I asked him "why", and he said its because technical analysis scares him. So, its not for everybody, I suppose. |

We don't dabble in trading scamcoins here. (Edit: by this I mean BSV) Much like the whole white paper copyright registration fake news, this is simply a pump capitalizing on false pretenses. This time, Craig's defense says the judge's sanctions were inappropriate because he could not disclose his bitcoin holdings until after receiving "the remaining cryptographic slice" from the bonded courier. The appellate court overseeing the issue agreed that they should wait until February 3rd for the courier to appear before slamming him with a half million bitcoin debt to Ira Kleiman. However, most of what the court had to say about Wright wasn't very kind. The Court notes that although the Defendant was ordered to produce all documents related to the blind trust by May 9, 2019, the Defendant had still failed to timely produce all documents that he had in his possession as of the evidentiary hearing date. In fact, as late as January 6, 2020, it was the Plaintiff who advised the Court that the Defendant produced another document purportedly related to the blind trusts. Plaintiffs advise that the Defendant has not provided any explanation as to the document’s late disclosure. At the status conference on January 9, 2020, Plaintiffs also called into question the document’s authenticity. ...the sole evidence put forward to establish the Defendant’s claim of impossibility, his own testimony, was found not to be credible by Judge Reinhart... (“I completely reject Dr. Wright’s testimony about the alleged Tulip Trust, the alleged encrypted file, and his inability to identify his bitcoin holdings . . . During his testimony, Dr. Wright’s demeanor did not impress me as someone who was telling the truth.”). The Court has also reviewed the transcripts from the Evidentiary Hearing held by Judge Reinhart and agrees with his credibility findings relating to Defendant. Indeed, in answering opposing counsel’s questions, the Defendant was evasive, refused to give and interpret words in their very basic meanings, was combative, and became defensive when confronted with previous inconsistencies. ...the Court has no doubt that the Plaintiffs were prejudiced by the Defendant’s antics. It is clear to the Court that the Defendant’s conduct was anything but substantially justified or harmless. Defendant’s conduct delayed and obstructed the discovery process of this case, wasted valuable time and resources in litigating this issue, and prevented the Plaintiff from obtaining evidence that the Magistrate Judge found relevant to the Plaintiffs’ claims. Therefore, the Court rejects the Defendants’ argument that no prejudice has been suffered by the Plaintiffs as a result of the Defendant’s conduct. Such argument is entirely devoid of merit. Finally, the Defendant argues that at minimum he “should have been afforded the opportunity to wait until [the date the bonded courier is set to come] to see if he receives the key slices to generate the list of his bitcoin holdings, which he could then provide to plaintiffs.” Defendant contends that in the event this occurs, “even plaintiffs would have to concede that Dr. Wright’s inability to do the impossible and comply with the discovery order caused them absolutely no prejudice.” Given the Defendant’s many inconsistencies and misstatements, the Court questions whether it is remotely plausible that the mysterious “bonded courier” is going to arrive, yet alone that he will arrive in January 2020 as the Defendant now contends. However, given that the Defendant maintains that he should at least be afforded this opportunity, the Court will indulge him this much. https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.521536/gov.uscourts.flsd.521536.373.0.pdfThe court order, while stating that Judge Reinhart's sanctions on Wright had been "improperly imposed," is still just a slam on Wright that is being cleverly re-interpreted to fool people into thinking that Wright is going to produce evidence that a bonded courier is scheduled to deliver cryptographic "slices" proving that he owns Satoshi's bitcoin stash. Spoiler alert: He won't. Basically, nothing new here. Short BSV if you can. |

Hmmm... How about a tweet to @NickSzabo4? Or Hal?
I think Nick Szabo is a top Satoshi contender, along with Adam Back. So if you contact either one of them, maybe they can "pass on the message." For Hal, he won't get the message until his cyborg body is operational and they wake up his head, sometime around the year 2250. Finney’s body is now at a temperature of -196 degrees Celsius inside a three-meter Dewar filled with liquid nitrogen, and it will be stored in complete anabiosis at Alcor cryonics company.
“Here he will stay until technologies appear that will solve problems like ALS and the aging process,” says Max More, the director of Alcor and Finney’s old friend. “Then we can get Hal back alive and healthy.”

Don't know why I'm bothering, but you are incorrect here: His main problem seems to be in terms of alleged trust abuse (which at this time matters not since trust system is fucked AND nobody supported his flags) that he chose type 2 flags not the lemons flag. Which is just open season for anything like red tags to some members here.
He left 66 flags of all types across 2 days. They are all erroneous. They all have zero support. For example, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1166https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1169https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1203The trust abuse isn't just "alleged." It is. He's also left positive trust to every single account I've ever negative trusted, except for scam thread bumpers, and you, for some strange reason. If that isn't trust abuse, I don't know what is. He is presently ban evading and exists purely to be disruptive to the forum. I've officially put too much time into thinking about this so I won't be responding any further. |

The connection is "Bitcoin SV" (should really have quadruple-quotes around his name) decided to leave positive feedback for every single member I have ever given a negative feedback to, and several of the people I gave a neutral to...  They are obsessed with me I suppose. But they're not the first hater I've had, and they won't be the last. |

GP was not nuked, right? And I guess that's only one easy example.
What I mean is that some of the toxic users seem to get away no matter how much garbage they produce, no matter what we'd like or vote.
The main difference between GP and Bitcoin SV is the Bitcoin SV account belongs to a banned troll named korner. He owns all of these accounts, several of which are banned: Unlike some of his other accounts, he hasn't outright admitted he is Bitcoin SV, and there's no blockchain evidence to link him. Only the fact that all these accounts woke up on the same day to change their password, and his pattern of behavior fits the MO for a korner account (read the linked thread for more details). I wouldn't mind if he were nuked, but he should definitely be banned for trolling and ban evasion. I just don't know how to report his comments for ban evasion. They certainly are easier to report for trolling. Perhaps we should go that route. |

This escalation of events I think serves one purpose in the eyes of Trump: to take the attention off of his impeachment debacle. It seems pretty uncalled for, and right out of the blue. As everyone knows, U.S. troubles with Iran stems back to the 70s -- skirmishes by proxy are certainly not a recent thing. Officials on both sides are still saying they don't wan't war, but a lot of the general public is led to believe that WWIII has already begun (some of the more gullible ones I suppose).

He's not perfect. Neither are you.
Multiple instances of attempted blackmail and extortion is more than just being "not perfect". mosprognoz is not fit for DT for that reason alone. OK, I have reviewed everything and am no longer including mosprognoz. That puts him at -1 now. Sorry man but you just can't do that kind of thing. I am open to the possibility of re-adding you later if you take it easy for a bit. Just concentrate on going after the real scammers, of which there are plenty, and you'll be fine. |

I'm right in the middle on this one... It would appear this guy writes questions using alts and then answers with The-Devil. This is somewhat confirmed by these alts supporting his frivolous flags. Definitely not trustworthy behavior.
However, I don't think merit farming explicitly makes one "high risk" for trading. If it were trust farming on the other hand, then yes, I could see that being high risk behavior.
Either way, this guy has already been tagged, the jig is up -- I don't think he's gonna be executing any trades or asking for money here under that account.
Sorry guy -- your plan worked well, until it didn't.

One of my favorite games for PC... The fights with the rebels is one of the funnest aspects of it. I used to make things unsavory just to create rebels to later quash. Elections are also fun... If you assassinate your rival during the election, most people don't seem to mind, then the next most likely contender takes their place. You can also have them assassinated, of course. I also like creating squalor-filled areas and butting them up against the mansions. There's a surprising lack of information about this on the forum, even in the Development & Technical Discussion section. The subject matter is a bit dry but understanding how it helps bitcoin evolve will help you counter shitcoiners when they tell you that "bitcoin is an ancient technology." |

Here are a couple of my comments that were deleted from the old thread (I refuse to waste my time commenting in the new thread). This one points out how BSV's transaction volume is being steadily manipulated in order to surpass BTC's transactions per day. A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic. There are no rules of self-moderation, so this deletion cannot be appealed. Do not continue posting in this topic if the topic-starter has requested that you leave. You can create a new topic if you are unsatisfied with this one. If the topic-starter is scamming, post about it in Scam Accusations. Thanks for posting this. This plot is one of my favorites to demonstrate the manipulation of statistics by BSV. Notice how all the lines are pretty wavy, indicating a rather tremendous amount of variation in the number of transactions? Then notice how the line smooths out for BSV between late May and mid July? This is because BSV was coordinating a ramp up in transactions to surpass BCH. It lost all variance because all (most) transactions are being performed by a single entity. Here's what it looks like close-up so you can see it in better detail:  Let me guess: you are going to say this methodical, calculated ramp up in transactions is completely organic, right? The loss of variance is also organic, correct? Then why did the variance reappear after the ramp up had ended? The one dispels the myth that BTC is "ignoring the miners": A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic... Funny how you have to invent competitions in order to have one where you are actually winning. BTC can build a layer that ignores the miners, if BTC ever reaches 20k again it will cost 50$ just to fund a lightning node with an on chain transaction.
This statement highlights the cognitive dissonance of BSVers. How can transaction fees be so high if BTC is ignoring miners? Either transaction fees are high, or miners are being ignored. Both items cannot be present at the same time. At this rate BSV miners will claim a higher reward from transaction fees over block rewards, this is how bitcoin was meant to be.
Average BSV block reward per day minus fees: $148,950 Average BSV transaction fees per day: $125 The only way this could possibly happen (before the next halving) is if transaction fees increase by a factor of 1191 while the price remains the same. This will never happen. Let's compare the same stats for BTC: Average BTC block reward per day minus fees: $14,400,000 Average BTC transaction fees per day: $136,444 The ratio between block reward and fees for BTC is only 105.5, whereas it is 1191 for BSV! Your entire existence has just been rendered absurd. Additionally your last stress test could only produce a block that was 8 MB. Why not just use Bcash? What's the difference? At least the Bcash cult leader doesn't think he's Satoshi. What a joke. So does this one: A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic... The lightning network (the only Scaling solution BTC has come up with) literally ignores miners in every way possible.
False. You literally just said this: if BTC ever reaches 20k again it will cost 50$ just to fund a lightning node with an on chain transaction.
Where do you think that $50 is going? Besides, how can fees be so high if everybody is ignoring the miners? Bitcoin miners are doing just fine. You're just rehashing that same tired, disproven narrative perpetuated by other BSV idiots that we've heard a thousand times before. Ohhhh what about the poor, poor miners? Who will think of them???  Everything is driven by economic incentives. LN will be used because blocks are already quite full, which means the miners are already making maximum income from transaction fees. There's no problem here whatsoever. This one is about how the count of active addresses is a better metric for determining the popularity of a coin than transaction volume: A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic... https://sv.coin.dance/blocksProof is here. bitcoin SV now averaging bigger blocks the BTC on a daily basis. This explains the recent price surge for BSV. If Bitcoin SV continues increasing block sizes at this growth rate, it will be a very slow death for BTC. BSV price will continue to increase simply because there will be an incentive for miners to mine the most profitable chain. This comment will be flagged and deleted by dictator moderators on this form.  The only reason your comments get deleted is when you post twice in a row or if you spam off-topic nonsense. In this case you only posted once, and while your comment is indeed nonsense it is still not off-topic, so it won't be deleted. BSV muppets always fail to take into account active addresses, which is a much better metric for estimating the popularity of a coin. Active addressesBTC: 537k ETH: 313k DASH: 64.6k LTC: 42.8k DOGE: 34.45k BSV: 28.4kETC: 18.3k BCH: 17.2k https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/activeaddresses-bsv.htmlCongrats, more people use DOGE on a daily basis than BSV, despite it only having 14.5% the total market cap of your tremendously overpriced coin. The "payment" aspect for BSV accounts for 2.1% of all usage... just like Satoshi intended... Finally, this is why I stopped commenting in their thread (in addition to having all of my comments deleted, lol): A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic... There is a lot that (the real) nutildah says with which I do not agree.
However, this nutlidah impostor should rethink their approach. It seems evident that the username was chosen to intentionally deceive. Very poor taste. I doubt you're fooling anyone. You're only making yourself look bad.
There are 2 sets of multi-accounters working this thread, if not just 1. One of the main problems with this thread is that it was started by a banned user named korner. He's opened probably 100 different accounts to troll the forum, one of which is my impostor. Frankly I don't give a shit about SV anymore. Its a comedic spectacle. No longer worth bumping this thread over. In any case, this thread is a good initiative, and we should encourage people who had their replies deleted to repost them here, as well as keep this thread listed above the actual ANN thread at all times. |

I wonder if there's any BTC holder dumb enough in the world to fall for this. why do you think badly of me? if the buyer will not found, then I will tell everyone this for free in this topic Wait a minute... You're actually serious about this? Even though you were the one posting it, I thought it was some sort of sophisticated joke. 1. The "genesis block" doesn't have a private key. The recipient of the first block reward has the private key. 2. The address receiving the genesis block reward has a total of 66 BTC and some change, far less than the 100 you are asking for. 3. The coins rewarded from the genesis block can't be moved! I thought this was common knowledge. Just fuck back off, please. Come back after you've signed a message from 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa. I use a translator, do not find fault with the my words, the block on which 66 bitcoins and I know that they can not be spent the key is restored by changing the time and vulnerability of a pseudo random number generator, generating all sorts of keys for the same time, and as variables that are multiplied by known time of creation of the pair, are substituted all sorts of values of temperature, Mac address, RAM, and so on You've truly lost it. Pretty lame scam attempt bro. Just do it on your own. Nobody is sending you anything. Laters. |

From the Maya Preferred 223 scam thread: One thing about this MAYA crap that mildly interested me was the role of The Crypto Analyst in their pretty basic PR approach. ... "The Crypto Analyst" is Brendan Viehman a know nothing kid who claims, like all know nothing kids, to be an experienced blockchain and cryptocurrency consultant that has worked with the field since 2011 where I began my journey. . From looking at him, in 2011 he would have been about nine. Anyway, nothing special, just another chancer in a crypto world full of them, but.... So, what is a short description of Maya Preferred? Let's go with "A pretend stablecoin listed on Saturn and Catex: minimal, low quality trading and no reason to exist other than P&D." Now let's look at Viehman's Linkedin again I have worked with numerous companies and projects such as TrustUSD (TRUSD) Maya Preferred 223 (MAPR), Digital Fantasy Sports (DFS) TrustUSD?So, what is a short description of TrustUSD? "A pretend stablecoin listed on Saturn and Catex: minimal, low quality trading and no reason to exist other than P&D." This might be a stretch but expounding on the Maya Preferred / TrustUSD connection: I noticed that Amy has changed her telegram name to Rainbow Brite Amy (RainbowBrite85) and has not been seen since the 2nd of Jan and does not appear to be an Admin no more. I think she more then likely took their last pay of $200-$250 and packed it in. She knows it is a scam and tried to make me look like an idiot to have money and lead the others down a dark path of being scammed. Edit: My suspicions where correct check out this https://ibb.co/C8pGcF6 she knew it was a scam all a long and did not care about anyone being scammed aslong as she got her money.... How evil. This person is a member of the TrustUSD Telegram group:  And apparently one of the spammers for the TrustUSD thread: Congratulations to the TrustUSD Team!!!
This one is going to make it!
This idea is phenomenal, and the people who are backing it up are strong! Only a matter of time before this explodes.
What are the chances that this person is also Brendan Viehman or part of his promotional team? Regardless, their involvement is another sign that this project is a scam. Edit: added a flag against this project. |
