So I just realized during troubleshooting the ledger that I destroyed the seed for the wallet I originally staked.
You've staked 3 different addresses, both SegWit and native. Those are unlikely to be produced by the same wallet, so you may still have one of them.

Electrum is giving me the option to extend my 12 word seed that it's giving me. Can I make up 12 more words and press enter then that 24 words is my seed?
Yes. But why? The extension is supposed to be something you can remember.

I'd say this is a case of "not great, not terrible". Nothing much is lost, spammers won't suddenly be able to rank up because of this, and it's not the first time I've seen Merit being used as some sort of reward.
663  Other / Meta / Re: Stake your Bitcoin address here on: May 01, 2024, 12:12:37 PM
So you are saying that It's better to Restake my old address?
There's no need to redo it if it's still secure. If you do it, I'd link to the older one, and sign with both. Make it obvious you still control both addresses when you sign the new one.

Frankly I don't know why I bother doing the reports, other than it gives me a personal satisfaction to see absolutely shitty posts get deleted. Bonus satisfaction points if they would have counted toward that week's sig campaign payment.
If only we could see their face after they see their posts disappear Cheesy
My evil side still wants to Merit a user right before he gets banned for plagiarism, just to make it hurt a bit more.

We just wrapped up the Best February since 2013 for Bitcoin!
That's cheating, it has a day extra Tongue

So, I basically want to re-stake my bitcoin address.
I've done it, but it's also exactly what an account buyer/hacker would do.

I feel like doing it with a seed that's on my SafePal will make me feel like a fresh new person!
The point of staking an address is that you don't feel like a fresh new person....

Quote
Is the process any different now that I'm using metal as the medium to keep record of my seed?
The seed generated on my Ledger is the one I'm engraving into the SafePal?
None of this matters: you sign a message from a staked address, and you keep the private key secure. That's all there is to it, and it's all we as forum users get to see.

Its a holiday in belgium and I'm up early...
Same in the Netherlands. Spending time with the kids, while slowly quickly getting poorer. Then again, judging by the Bitcoin Rainbow Chart, this isn't unexpected around a halving. I still have high hopes for the next 6-18 months.
668  Other / Meta / Re: Top reporters on: April 30, 2024, 05:53:25 AM
That is one report every 10 mins, 7 days a week. (assuming 8 hours sleep per day)
If I remember correctly, he used some automation tools to make it faster to report shitposts.

People who report bad posts are the unsung heroes of this forum
That's why the idea of reporter badge images is almost 6 years old. How time flies!
669  Other / Meta / Re: What is the Impact of Accurate Reporting on User Profiles on: April 29, 2024, 05:51:05 PM
I am wondering what happens with this in the long run.
In the long run, we get a better forum Wink That's what happens Smiley
670  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Maybe someone knows who the address belongs to? on: April 29, 2024, 05:27:05 PM
I don't understand why they gave you information that actually can't help you
It would make more sense if they'd send an email to the account owner, asking him to contact OP. Sharing half an email address it's not helping at all.

Foundry USA currently has access to approximately 28% of the hashrate. This means that it has 39% probability to successfully rewrite the entire previous block and mine another one on a row.
Somehow this probability is always larger than I'd expect intuitively. Your answer seems to be correct:
Image loading...

It is possible to publicly announce SHA-256 of the public key, and get it deeply confirmed, and announced everywhere. Then, if any mining pool will try to overwrite a valid block, there will be a strong, publicly-verifiable evidence, that they did it.

Because the solver can announce for example "OP_RIPEMD160 62e907b15cbf27d5425399ebf6f0fb50ebb88f18 OP_EQUALVERIFY <solverPubKey> OP_CHECKSIG", and get it deeply confirmed, without trusting anyone, and without touching the puzzle. And then, everyone can see, if the reward from the puzzle was first moved into "solverPubKey" or not.
Being the first to solve the puzzle is meaningless if someone else beats you to getting their transaction confirmed. Someone else could have solved the puzzle between the time you took to create this transaction, and broadcast the real one.

Have you considered posting torrents for all these links? Would make downloding faster, and would help ease the strain on your server.
This question pops up once in a while (including your own post about it back in 2021). Short answer: there's no need, and frequent updates are annoying with torrents. Long answer: click All, CTRL-F "torrent".
675  Other / Meta / Re: LoyceV's Weekly Trust list overview in Human Readable Format on: April 28, 2024, 01:37:28 PM
Because you have 60 DT1 trust list inclusions, what is the possibility of you being able to perform a 51% attack on the DT1 network, and what would it consist of?
Given that 60>51, didn't I succeed already? Tongue
Seriously though, it doesn't matter much. If I go abusive, it'll turn negative soon enough. If I don't go abusive, DT-1 strength (60) holds exactly the same "power" as (1). All it does it give more protection against (abusive) DT1-members that exclude me for whatever reason.

Anyway, hats off, LoyceV, you deserve kudos, whoever or whatever you are.
Thanks Smiley
676  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How to CPFP with Bitcoin Core? on: April 28, 2024, 01:30:54 PM
import the BTC address from your Bitcoin core wallet to Electrum and then make a transaction
This instead worked.
How? You're talking about a transaction from a year ago that pays 1 sat/vbyte, while the purging limit is 6.21 sat/vbyte.

For reference, it seems that the Stake,com signature campaign has been moved to the Bounty board, is it because of changing the payment to USDT?
See hilariousandco's post.
678  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: VanitySearch (Yet another address prefix finder) on: April 28, 2024, 07:53:10 AM
etc, all about additionally 10 millions similar strings.
That's cute. You're wasting computing power to prove to yourself that you'll never find the private key to someone else's Bitcoin address by brute-forcing it. Keep it up, convince yourself how secure Bitcoin is.

UK law enforcement will be able to destroy a crypto asset if returning it to circulation is not conducive to the public good. Privacy coins, for example, are a form of cryptocurrency that grant an extremely high degree of anonymity and are often used for money laundering.
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-powers-to-seize-cryptoassets-used-by-criminals-go-live
So you're saying they'll make Monero more scarce by burning them once confiscated?

Allow me to highlight the word "crypto". Without that, they'd have to burn any fiat money they confiscated from criminals, because fiat money has a high degree of anonymity and is often used for money laundering.... Oops Tongue

Quote
Police will no longer be required to make an arrest before seizing crypto from a suspect.
What ever happened to due process and the assumption of innocence until proven guilty?
Is this new? I'm pretty sure they've already seized funds from servers without arresting the suspects.
680  Other / Meta / Re: [theymos] Bug with Merit (for sending) on: April 28, 2024, 07:37:55 AM
another way to send someone 20 merits would be to send them 0.02e3 merits.
Lol. I've reached my monthly limit, so all I could send you was 0.002e3 Merits.
