hi salute you
I'm a digital money enthusiast. and very confident in the future of this technology.
I see you are very dedicated to your belief, like me. And a lot of people trust you, proof that you have 1165 merits.
I have a small request like this, please help me. If not, it's a joke. Can you sell me this account for a price of 3 ETH, or can you sell me 800 Merit at a price of 2 ETH?
if you agree. Please contact me again

Thank you, dear brother

I know money talk but he can't just buy the best users and trade merits  Tongue

I see LoyceV already give him negative trust, but no one reports him, so, time to stop this spammer before he gets those legend accounts or those 800 merits.
6022  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin infrastructure too Chinese? What should be done technically? on: October 10, 2018, 08:01:00 PM
Hi,
I just read this academic  paper, authors are suggesting that Bitcoin is in danger of being compromised by Chinese government because of ASICs and pools.

I have been championing against ASICs and pools for a while and as of my experience when it comes to any serious improvement to bitcoin and it has to be done by a hard fork an army of 'legendary' shills are ready to make it almost impossible to discuss anymore.

But we have hard-fork-wishlist, discussing an issue won't fork the chain, actual forking does! So, I politely ask these guys to give us a break and let us to have a productive discussion about whether or not we could do anything, any technical improvement obviously, to deal with what the authors are pointing out?



If Chinese are the ones who create the ASICs and the ones who run the biggest mining farms, then of course they are the ones who more power over the coin, but i don't see it as something bad, i mean, at least someone needs to do it. The bitcoin mining complexity grows day by day and it was a challenge for the engineers to create those mining machines with more than 10Thz of mining power.

So, the mining will not stop, and if China doesn't take the control of this business, someone will do it, that's a fact.

For making a wallet on crypto currency exchange do I need a specific rank or merit?

Hello Ridaa. This forum and Exchanges are a different business, that's why you don't need a specific rank or merit. But this question says you are totally lost in the cryptos world. So let me guide you for your first steps.


1.-To buy bitcoins you can open an account in https://www.localbitcoins.com and use the best payment method for you.

2.-Then get a wallet, that way you can send your btc to your own bitcoin addy. Remember, in a wallet you can have multiple bitcoin addys, and each addy can be in multiple wallets. I know, is a little confusing, but think about it and you will find the logic. You can get a free online wallet here https://www.blockchain.com/wallet

3.-If you want to use your bitcoins to buy other coins, you can use a service like https://www.shapeshift.io, those guys make it easy for all, you don't need to create an account, only send the btc to the addy they give you and you will receive the coins on your altcoin addy.

I hope this information helps you and if you want to learn more then I have good news for you, you are in the right place for that! Wink
6024  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto holds 980,000 Bitcoins.. does anyone know their addresses? on: October 09, 2018, 02:24:15 PM
Well, if he holds 980,000 btc and each block gives a reward of 50 btc we can deduce his address from the first blocks...

Code:
980000/50 = 19600 

So, the first 19600 blocks was mined by satoshi and to search those address you can start from: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/block-height/0 to https://www.blockchain.com/btc/block-height/19600

Do it manually could take you lot of time, i recommend you to code a script who make the job for you if you really want those addys.

*I could be wrong because not sure at what block people start mining.

3.   In May 2010, you could buy only 2 pizzas with 10,000 Bitcoins, and now there are 20 million pizzas.
The deal was for one pizza but the guy delivers two

4.   Bitcoin transfers are non-refundable.
They are if you double spend it to the same addy

5.   The unit of Bitcoin transfers is defined as Satoshi / Byte. 1 Satoshi = 0.00000001 Bitcoin.
Only satoshi, not satoshy/Byte

7.   Each new block is dissolved in 10 minutes and gives approximately 6 Bitcoin awards.
Wrong! the block reward is 12.5 BTC

12.   5% of all Bitcoins are actively used in the deep web platform called Silk Road. Silk Road is generally known as the market where dark and illegal shopping on the internet is made.
Skillroad die some years ago, the owner is already on jail.

14.   As of July 2017, 16.4 million Bitcoins were involved in the circulation in the market.
10.   64% of Bitcoins are never used and will never be used... do you math bro?

29.   There are 7 credit cards in the world based on Bitcoin.
They are'n credit cards, they are debit cards, and i own one  Cheesy

Hace un par de días theymos publico que ha implementado un sistema en el foro para evadir los Captcha, esto va a ser bastante útil para las personas que se conecten a través de proxys o TOR.

You can now bypass the login CAPTCHA by bookmarking the link generated for you here: https://bitcointalk.org/captcha_code.php

If it causes problems, I might restrict it to Jr Members and above or something, but currently anyone can do it.

Por el momento no tiene limitaciones, pero si la gente abusa del sistema entonces será limitado. Así que ya saben, diríjanse a   https://bitcointalk.org/captcha_code.php y obtengan su link personalizado para evadir captchas.  Wink

Lo unico malo es que si alguien obtiene este.... link podría hacer fuerza bruta para tratar de encontrar tu password.

Si alguien obtiene este link, entonces no tendría que hacer fuerza bruta debido a que para obtener el link tendría que estar logueado en la cuenta, y si ya estas logueado pierde sentido el obtener el password.   Grin

Realmente el único problema de esto es que cualquiera podría hacer  bots con TOR y así usar cuentas para farmear el foro, pero podríamos decir que los méritos es un filtro para los que lo intenten.
6028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: October 08, 2018, 05:14:05 PM
Some people think that strong feeling affect the outcome of your bet. But for me its all about luck., what do you think guys.

If you understand the maths behind a probably fair system, then you will realize how the things work on the backend, and doesn't matter if you have positive toughs or bad ones. At end is a random number making some crypto hashing and giving a result.

But in other hand we have the attraction law, if you want to understand what i'm talking about you should read the book or watch the movie called "The Secret", here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3isjlvccc0
And that philosophy say that you attract thinks with your mind, if you think in positive things, then you will have positive things in your life, if you have negative or bad toughs all time, then that's what you attract to your life.
i'n my country we say 'You are what you eat', and i'm half agree with that, but you aren't only that, i compose that for, 'You are what you read and what you think'. Think positive will bring you positive results in life.

So, at end i'm not agree about that your thinking affect a bet result, but for sure it affect your day by day in real life.
6029  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did we get what we asked for - less Bitcoin volatility? on: October 08, 2018, 05:05:30 PM
Do you remember the times when Bitcoin prices were all over the place and price swings of $300 to $500 in any direction was

normal.  Roll Eyes  Well, back then, everyone were moaning and complaining about the high volatility and how this negatively

impacted the merchants and using Bitcoin as a payment option.

How things have changed in a matter of 1 to 2 years is astonishing, because now people are complaining about the lack of

volatility and how boring Bitcoin has become.  Roll Eyes


Do we know what we want or are we divided in our goals, since more speculators have entered the Bitcoin scene in 2017.  Huh

Let's discuss.  Wink

I don't think we have less Bitcoin volatility, let's see the graph from January to today:


The variance still there, but now isn't between $300 and $500, now we are playing with bigger numbers, this way i think the risk is bigger because because the floor is far away and if wehit it would mean a really dam crash, would be really disgusting for those ones to buy at $15k to see bitcoin going down to $500. And it could happen, i'm sure lot of us will be really happy if it happens but whould be a pain in the ass for those ones who buy at those crazy big prices.

volatility will keep doing his thing, bitcoin will not stay calm, at end that's how it rolls.
6030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor Prediction and Info Thread on: October 08, 2018, 01:18:00 PM
In hindsight, Khabib should have tried to win the crowd by taking the moral high ground after his victory.  He should have extended his hand to McGregor to help him get up then bowed on McGregor's feet as an act of showing respect and gratitude for giving him the honor of fighting him.

That would've raised Khabib's status in the UFC and in sports in general imho. 

Khabib:  'Check mate b*tch!'.  Grin

Damn Conor makes me lose 0.01 BTC on this fight  Angry McGregor era is over, it will only live in our memories 'once there was an invincible warrior who take 2 belts...' but now he can't win on UFC or Box. Money just blinds our guy, and his era it's over.

About Khabib... that was the most respectfulness action i have ever seen on UFC, you can't just jump out of the cage and start kicking and punching people, was a nice show but wasn't ethic, that way people will just hate more that guy (cos people already hate him).

And the worst part was to see how police take out the fighters and no belt was given on the octagon. We can call it a happy end, with time UFC is becoming the new WWE, freaking drama show. and it's sad because we don't want that.

6032  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why do we trust hardware wallet manufacturers? on: October 08, 2018, 12:39:16 AM

I have recently bought a hardware wallet. (Ledger Nano S)

This made me think about the reasons why I should trust my life savings
to these companies? They write software that I cannot understand and I
trust other people to verify that the software that they wrote is 100% safe.

Why do I trust the people who "verified" that code? I have no idea what
their motivation is and if I can trust them.

The only answer that I could get, was that the honesty and the trust
would benefit the group and the community that was using this
technology.


Well,you cantrust them because you know who are those providers, in the case where your bitcoins disappear then you know who to blame, but remember hardware wallets are vulnerables too.

The problem here is if some one get access to your hardware wallet and take your bitcoins, you could think the ones who thief those coins was the wallet creators because they create your private key, but at end we can see tons of vulns on the move.

Off-chain just like LN or most casino where you need to deposit/withdraw and casino have full control over your coins?
Also, if clambling.luckyb.it don't require registration, i'd be interested.

Yes, kind of that Off-chain casinos, clambling require registration but is only User and Password, the mail is optional. We have full control over users coins, we know is a big responsibility and that's why we keep working to fix vulns and bugs. But at end users can withdrawal when they want, users balance is users money.

If you don't trust the Off-chain system, there is always the option of the main casino. Luckyb.it is On-Chain and the 108960.2 Bitcoins wagered are a prof about how good game it is!  Wink

I know i already ask similar question, but is luckyb.it really don't have plan to add altcoin support or Bitcoin through LN?

I've tried other casino which use LN (Lightning Slot Machine and Lightning Spin) and the speed is amazing, so i thought it would be great to play luckyb.it with low fees and almost no-waiting time, even though the provably fair method must be changed.

That's why we created clambling.luckyb.it, is a offchain engine with 4 games based in ClamCoin. The bad news is that site is under maintenance too. We are working to fix both sites and will have some good news soon.

By the way, the games we run under clambling are: Dice, Derby, Plinko and Slots.

6038  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Was Satoshi's coding ability considered bad? on: October 06, 2018, 01:22:12 PM
I think all codes on the first versions are 'gruyère cheese' with all those holes and things to fix, i think is the same scenario like when linux comes to live. Linus Torvalds isn't a bad coder, but he know that with a community the project could grow really fast. And i think was the same with bitcoin, maybe satoshi wasn't the best coder but he code bitcoin, what more do you whant from him? and he know with a community this could grow fast and big.

Other theory is that satoshi changes his coding style to avoid getting chased by his style, just like when you want to do a fake letter and try to change your letter format.  Tongue
6039  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Four Big Mistakes Newbies still do in cryptocurrency world on: October 06, 2018, 01:05:10 PM
4)YOUR WALLET IS YOUR BANK
Stop taking wallets for granted ,learn how your wallets works either its ethereum erc20 wallets or others ,you lose your private keys you lose your holdings ,I was in a group on telegram when someone posted his private key claiming he did not receive a airdrop ,I wonder what might have happened to him already ,its like some still don't know how serious there wallets backups are ,don't toy with it.

Wallet, Private Keys and Addy are different concepts. In the wallet you load your private key to get access to your addy. So, if the wallet is your bank, your addy is your debit card  Wink

I have seen people making the same mistake as you say before, posting their private key on a public place, and yes, is one of the worst way to lose money because at end you don't know who take the money.

But nice points you have there, i'm agree with you, we all make those mistakes in some point.
6040  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reminder for new members NOT to keep money on a Exchange. on: October 06, 2018, 12:57:35 PM
People will continue to store their funds on exchanges, untill they actually suffer from this decision.
The best way to learn is to obtain one`s own experience, no matter how harsh it`ll be.
After all, do you know any people who continue storing their investment on exchanges after they got lost their money on a hacked exchange?

True, after they get hacked then they learn the lesson... But there is a problem about this point and it's that not all have wallets for the coins they get on the exchangers. I want to see you buying Ripple and send them to a cold storage, is hard right? and when we want to ride the wave on trading we don't care the complexity of the coin or the wallet it use, we only wan't to hold it until it bump and then sell it.

So, if we are going to do trading, the best thing is do it in sessions, buy, wait, sell, then cash out the btc.
