When I first learned about Bitcoin, one of my friends told me that it belonged to a group of Chinese miners who owned all the Bitcoins. Would you like to invest in something like this? If we assume that Cz owns a million Bitcoins and Michel Sailor company has open data, and I think they have 360,000, and if we continue listing the list, we may find that some conglomerates own 5 million Bitcoins, and we still have more than 3 times this number. Either smaller conglomerates or unknown people, and even the list of rich addresses do not all belong to one alliance.

If you did not generate these 15 letters randomly, then the probability of knowing the correct password is high, but you need to reduce the search results a little. Do you remember any letter or any order of letters or anything that reduces the number of letters to 5 or 4 or at least excludes a specific order?

So the weak point is a JavaScript class called SecureRandom(), which generates an entropy of less than 48 bits of entropy, and the list could be longer if we included closed source wallets that rarely update the code, especially since some closed source wallets are still not supported bc1 addresses.

I cannot read the article because it is either paid or requires a subscription, but for J.P. Morgan made some predictions that were not accurate or that were taken out of their wording, and I believe that the reason for this is that these people analyze Bitcoin from the point of view of the stock market without considering that Bitcoin is a useful thing and deserves to have tools different from stock analysis tools, or they make this statement or wrong information in the hope of lowering the price and buying at a low price. Bitcoin is not affected by these analyses, making it ineffective.

The blockchain.info API has a long history of sudden shutdowns, in which you will not receive a notification or alert, and the support team responds slowly and may continue for several days without knowing the cause of the problem.
blockchair.com/API is better.


It seems that addresses.loyce.club depends on the data that comes from blockchair_bitcoin_addresses_and_balance_DATE.tsv.gz. Therefore, even if you download this file and try to manage the database and then create the API, you are accessing the indirect blockchair/API, which I think would be slower, if If you have the resources, buy a paid service.

you can try  https://blockchair.com/API for a limit of 1,000 calls per day Addresses per request (25k) Requests per minute ( 30 MIn) and If it is not enough, you can subscribe to their paid services according to the prices https://blockchair.com/api/plans

if you care about Requests per minute only try blockonomics.co as you can get 100 address every 2 min.
If you tell me specifically what you are looking for, I may give you better options, but https://blockchair.com provides excellent service and diverse options.

You may find Risk Reward Ratio with different names, such as Fear-to-Greed Ratio, Risk Index, Traders’ Enthusiasm, and some other tools, but they all agree on the same idea and differ in the method of calculating it. Some rely on technical analysis indicators, some rely on a questionnaire, some are based on a voting model, and some are predictive models with intelligence. all of them do not give accurate results.


You do not need to do this manually, but you can use these tools to filter your search results. Instead of manually searching through 10 cryptocurrencies, using these tools you can narrow your search to only 20.

It is difficult to balance the two things, but as the saying goes, fiat money is spent first, so make sure that Bitcoin payments have a high priority in depositing and the last item on the expense list, thus reducing the possibility of spending in Bitcoin, although I prefer to have Bitcoin accepted at your local business as a future investment. Leave cash payment for daily expenses. Results will vary depending on tax rules, trading strategy and your buying and selling of Bitcoin.

1099-DA cost basis complicates the tax record, and even if a program is created that makes everything unified, complications will exist, and failure to do so may return you to FIFO, which may make a difference in calculating taxes if you use another method.
Tracking and calculating gains separately for each address is a never-ending headache and may lead many to stop trading, so imposing taxes based on returns will solve many of this headaches.

assuming the forum has enough funding, everything will be free here for a long time, but reality says otherwise, I don't think we will see more developers returning to the forum, as even old members disappear after every 1/2 ing.


The number of active developers here is very limited and it has been a long time that there were serious discussions from developers rather than users of the services or discussions related to users of the protocol/service.

The level of privacy depends on the extent of your experience and your ability to correctly use the available options. If you think that by using Monero you will be completely hidden, then you are wrong, let alone solutions that try to enhance the privacy of Bitcoin, which is not the goal of Bitcoin. basic privacy is supposed to break the link between his inputs and outputs, that is what mixing services do, which provide you with a simple and easy interface to manage CoinJoin transactions or any other mixing method, to enhance privacy such as time delays, dividing Bitcoin into several addresses, and setting a restriction that you do not receive anything from your previous transactions.

I think, with the development of artificial intelligence, the task of finding and closing phishing links will be easy, and browsers may offer it as a free service, and increasing awareness will lead to the end of such fraud. I reported it even though I thought the site's design would create suspicions that it was a scam.

they blocked by MetaMask only

They have a rating of 4.7 in the store, which are ratings that may deceive some beginners. Reporting the application and leaving a negative rating will give an indication that it is a fraudulent service. Unfortunately, many do not verify the signature, but rather trust the default that the Apple Store is safe. I found some reviews from OCT so it's been about a month without this scam being shut down.

What makes a Bitcoin ATM company service request detailed data such as professions, physical addresses, social security numbers, and other data from the company, such as ATM transactions worth $100 to $5,000? Through this, Basic KYC, such as full name or passport photo, is sufficient, especially since the amount is less what requests by anti-money laundering services, which may request data such as the nature of income, position, and physical address.

This reminds me of the same data leak that happened to FTX after it filed for bankruptcy.

The idea is not new and has been discussed in some alternative currencies before, but I think it is the first time it has been applied at the level of the Bitcoin protocol.
it can be implemented currently using pay-to-watch with a balance on the Lightning Network. You can open a channel and deposit several satoshis, as every few seconds equals one satoshi, and so on. You can watch the video and the amount will be deducted directly by the channel without the need to pay Bitcoin using on-chain payment or the need for a central balance.


Yes it needs open-source Chaumian ecash system like https://github.com/cashubtc

I thought it was 10 minutes, but it seems that it took longer. It is noticeable that they happen at similar times, almost the same time interval, which appears to be an hour late in US time. The frequency of such downtimes is what scares me more than their length.

It is a temporary matter due to the high withdrawal fees, and if these platforms care about customers paying cheap fees, their fees should be less than the average amount you pay for individual transactions, which is approximately 61 sat/vB If we assume that these platforms want to confirm the transaction in the next block.
Look for any platform that offers cheaper fees and count from kucoin using altcoin that has cheaper fees or wait for several days and the fees will decrease.

I read the white paper and it seems that reactivating OP_CAT will open the door to more construction on top of Layer 2 networks, specifically liquid.
Adding new capabilities to Bitcoin may be a good thing, but I prefer that the use of Bitcoin be limited to the concept of peer-to-peer payments.

I don't know why Blockstream is so enthusiastic about CAT, but I believe that Bitcoin's role should be limited to making peer-to-peer payments without the need for more additional things. https://medium.com/blockstream/cat-and-schnorr-tricks-i-faf1b59bd298

I read all replies and no one mentioned the amount of Binance' assets. Other than the assets that Binance has recorded as reserves, which cannot be verified, does anyone know a complete list of their investments? I fear that they have a complex list that may intersect with all CEXs, some DEXs, and many services. They have been on the market list for more than 5 years, and this will make them have access or influence over many projects and developers.
