To je sad ovo što vidimo u Kini sa Digitalnim Yuanom. U međuvremenu je nastala i eNaira, digitalna valuta  Centralne Banke Nigerije. A prije toga se je pisalo o Švedskoj eKruni i Digitalnom Euru s kojim se već eksperimentiše. Morao bi proguglat da vidim koje još države već imaju svoju verziju digitalne valute.

Zanimljiva stvar je kad se otvori stranica Švedske eKrune. Izgleda kao tipični scam sa ovim obečanjima i očekivanom profitu.

Gledam sad tablicu od ChipMixer kampanje za ovaj tjedan i vidim da je jedan korisnik (actmyname) napustio kampanju prema onome što u njoj piše.
To onda znači da bi se uskoro moglo naći bar jedno slobodno mjesto. Malo prazničkog ludila za kraj 2021, što da ne?!

Sretan Božić i Sretna Nova Godina!

bet365crypto.net and Betproexpert could potentially even be the same person.
Both of them don't know how to quote properly as you can see from these two posts > 1, 2.

This is the first time I hear about this place, but judging by the name they picked alone, I would never play there.
If OP asked a genuine question (I don't believe he did), he should know that there are better platforms for gambling than this one.

One might even go as far as saying that the EpochTalk developers work round the clock, no clock.

I understood it similarly. It's a proposal to have the forum escrow funds that will be held in case the project scams its investors and bounty hunters. But bounty funds can already be escrowed, and if bounty hunters stopped joining and signing up to advertise projects that haven't escrowed the bounty tokens, they would at least have some sort of protection. A guarantee that payment will be made by the escrow agent. They can still receive worthless tokens, but that's not something the escrow should be concerned with. But this place is full with people who don't care what they sign up for and bounty hunters will continue to be scammed.   

You can't take just that one sentence out of context. You have to consider the entire paragraph.
 
- No refunds will be given if you break the rules and get banned.
- No refunds will be given if the benefits of the copper membership get changed.
- No refunds will be given if the copper membership gets cancelled at one point in the future and you can no longer take advantage of its features.

But if you send $1000 worth of BTC by mistake, the coins will surely be returned as the post by theymos proves.

Exemplary behavior. Congratulations on doing the right thing!

He may have written the reddit article? He doesn't remember whether he did or not?

I haven't heard about this particular case, but I am quite sure that we had similar incidents like that in the past. A user copying his own posts from social media or a personal blog to Bitcointalk. It should be easy to prove whether the original content is his or not. He could simply edit it by adding his Bitcointalk profile link to the bottom of the post, for example.

It sounds like a case of clumsiness and something that doesn't need to happen. But honestly not a reason I would ban someone. It definitely would be if he couldn't prove he owned that Reddit account though.

Let's say you managed to decentralize the Internet somehow. You have decentralized the software. What are you going to do with the hardware that connects to your newly decentralized internet? That's centralized as well. Most of it is probably closed-source. Can you trust your CPU, your GPU, and everything you connect to your USB ports (mouses and keyboards)? If we want decentralization, shouldn't we also build our own computers and the individual hardware components?

Some amount of paranoia is OK if you are being your own bank, but not too much.

I don't think that will help. It's important to differentiate the restrictions that the casino puts in place and those from gaming providers such as Pragmatic Play, for example. The casino could have no objections that you gamble on their site, but the gaming provider could. Here is a list that shows countries that are restricted for games developed by Pragmatic Play.

Let's take Italy as an example.
If you are Italian, you can sign up on casino X if your country is allowed. But even if it is, you are still not allowed to play Pragmatic Play slots because that provider restricts Italy.  

You can't stake bitcoin, but you can borrow it to an exchange, for example. That will generate some interest, but that is not the same as earning staking rewards.
The other thing you can do is take advantage of the DEFI ecosystem. Again, you can't use bitcoin directly, but you can swap your coins for a bitcoin token like wBTC. You then lend that wBTC to the platform. I don't recommend that you do that, I am just telling you what is possible to do. 

As in becomes the world's most used and accepted payment method? I don't see that happening. If they can't govern it, they don't want it.

Tell that to Ross Ulbricht and those who were operating Silk Road and see how far that gets you. I mean sure, you can create a dark web marketplace and the government can't simply shut it down. But let's not kid ourselves that people and services can't be stopped, blocked, and shut down when there is enough interest to do so.

I am not going to talk about how I discovered Bitcoin, but how I could have earned quite a few at a time when it was still a relatively new concept. I had a few long-term file hosting accounts that I no longer had any use for so I decided to sell them. I found this guy from Asia who wanted to purchase the lot. This was back in 2010/2011. I don't remember the exact price that he paid for them but it was a relatively high three-digit number. Our initial deal was for him to pay me in Liberty Reserve. Just before he did, he asked if I wanted Bitcoin instead. My thoughts were no, I don't want that crap. It's funny how people change.

I bookmarked this source some time ago. Maybe it's good to keep as many record of it as possible.

Download, verify, and trust it if you want. I don't know anything about the forum where it's posted or the person who uploaded the files.

I think it was dkbit98 who talked about this a few months ago. But if I remember it correctly, we haven't seen cases where hardware wallet users were affected by this in real life. It was just a presentation and explanation of how such a vulnerability can be applied to hardware wallets.

@dkbit98 can you fill us in?

Most of those are just part of the Bitcoin qt client, now known as Bitcoin Core. The zip file probably contains the installation for Bitcoin qt. The .png file is the image file for the logo. .ink is also some sort of image extension I think.

The wallet file is the only thing you should care about. Everything else are just files left on the disk from a time you had the Bitcoin QT client installed on your computer.

But how is that possible? How is that airplane mode in that case?
If the whole idea behind airplane mode is to ensure that all connections to and from the device are disabled, how can you have WIFI and Bluetooth enabled? Maybe iOS just displays them as being still turned on in the system, but in reality they aren't, and all networks and antennas are disabled.

It would be like saying these pair of shoes are waterproof unless you step in a puddle of water. In that case your feet will get wet.

I understand that you are just testing this, but I still don't think it can be called an airgapped cold storage solution. There must be a distinction between a setup that doesn't have the required hardware to establish a network connection and a device that has but only has it turned off by enabling flight mode. Your airgapped system becomes a hot wallet by sliding your finger down the screen, disabling flight mode, or enabling WIFI. It's not enough for an attack, but the prerequisites for one are there. Nevertheless, it's an interesting concept to think about.   

It's a called a 25th word intentionally to make it clear that we are talking about the type of passphrase that is added to the end of your seed to extend it with an additional string for better security. It's not the same as the "passphrase" used to refer to a password you use to encrypt your wallet file. It's a bit confusing that we use the same term for two different things.   

To be fair, they (or Baanx) will have your KYC details if you submit your KYC details. You don't have to, and you don't have to use their upcoming debit card either.

That would be my choice If I needed a new hardware wallet tomorrow. Although, that tomorrow won't come before February 2022 when the pre-orders will start to be shipped out. That's the idea anyway. The passphrase adds an additional security layer and it's recommended to use one no matter if there is a Trezor seed extraction vulnerability or not.

Nothing has changed and the procedure is still the same last time I checked. My last LL update was less than a month ago.
I am not sure what you read on reddit. This guide is for Windows, and I tested it on my Windows PC. I don't have a MAC, so I wouldn't know. You use Windows as well, so don't worry about MACs.
