I wouldn't say so. Charging 20k sats and broadcasting a 1 sat/byte transaction makes it even more ridiculous. You're right. I was (mistakingly) under de impression it's 2k sats. What was I thinking. Wanna hear something funny? Kraken charges 1k sats. And LN-withdrawals are FREE! Wanna hear something stupid? Binance (the scam site that tries to trick people by offering 3 different made-up tokens as Bitcoin) charges 50k sats for Bitcoin Segwit withdrawals! |

Bitcoin is truly shit when it's transferred between 3rd party wallets. I'm going to state the obvious: be your own bank. Even if you have to use a third party, send funds to your own wallet before sending it elsewhere. |

Celsius? First time I've even heard of it! Will people ever learn not to give their Bitcoins to centralized money-grabbers? |

Hopefully this thread will deter anyone else from being scammed. While you're here, this may be a good time to learn more about Bitcoin  You've found this forum already, and it contains more than a decade of information, starting at the very beginning. I don't know the scam site you used, and I don't know what you were trying to accomplish, but in general, it's a good start to assume there is no free lunch. There are many legit websites out there, but unfortunately there are also many scams. Be careful who you trust! |

I missed that to, in truth I didn't even look to miss it. Is this common for Binance to do this?
I don't use them anymore so I don't pay attention but it just seems odd to have an exchange sending coins like that.
One would think that it's easier to spend a few extra sats then deal with the customer complaints.... Up until not so long ago, Binance used to charge ridiculously high withdrawal fees, and made transactions with ridiculously high fees. More recently, they've reduced withdrawal fees, and it looks like they're now on the other end of the spectrum being cheap on fees. |

It is coming from an exchange, having over 30 inputs. CPFP is not advisable. It has only one input, and 39 outputs. CPFP isn't that bad for 1340 vbyte (but still a waste of money for something Binance charges a withdrawal fee for). I didn't see the unconfirmed parent. Shame on Binance! |

Yes. Privacy is a human right. I affirm that the right to privacy is a right that has limits and it is good that it has them, and I would like to know if you agree with this or not, because if not, it seems to me that it is not worthwhile to continue debating on the subject. Privacy has to have some limits from the moment you live in society. Agreed. I noticed the word arbitrary in Article 12: No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy That's an interesting choice of words, which leaves a lot of room for law makers to collect information. Part of privacy is the right to secrecy of communications, but if the authorities believe you are breaking the law, they can spy on your communications to check if you are indeed doing so.
Defending that you have the right to 100% privacy with Bitcoin is the same as defending it in this aspect and I, although I defend the right to privacy to a certain extent, recognize that it has to have some limits.
I don't know if you are arguing that the authorities should not have the right to violate your privacy either in any case such as the one above. I agree there are limits. And I have no problems with government cracking down on (suspected) criminals. What I do have a problem with, and which has been in the news several times in the past years, is government agencies illegally listening in on many private conversations (the so called drag-net approach). Where I live, we have quite good privacy laws, but they're violated by many if not most organisations, including government itself. Alright; that's a good point, however I still don't know why the entities pushing against this human right (politicians, lawmakers, ...) would treat 'Bitcoin with protocol level privacy' any different from 'Bitcoin with high-level privacy' (that comes from ChipMixer or other non-traceable origin). To them I don't think it matters why they can't trace it, just that they can't - and that's what they push back against. They couldn't care less in which layer we implement privacy, in my opinion. You're probably right: they'll still try to get rid of Bitcoin, just like they're (slowly) trying to get rid of cash money. |

What I couldn't fathom out is why I was able to make a number of smaller withdrawals with my profits Selective scamming: they let you withdraw small amounts, hoping you'll deposit bigger amounts again. |

For example
1st grade teacher name ? forgot
2nd grade teacher ? Mrs De Pace
3rd grade teacher? forgot
4th grade teacher? forgot
5th grade teacher? forgot That's why a much more difficult to brute-force system is so much better: there's less to remember for the same security. However, more recent implementations uses a far slower and intensive algorithm which limits the effectiveness of the bruteforce as it would require either high memory intensity or resources. In addition, salt is mandatory in most implementations which makes for an additional round of protection. You could add a "salt" to a "normal" brain wallet: after your password, add for instance your real name. That makes it impossible to brute-force it together with all other brain wallet users out there. |

I would say those accounts are alts of LoyceV~  (kidding). Not me. I don't know how they fake the "time logged in". LoyceBot has been scraping the forum continuously for years, and currently has: Total time logged in: 14 days, 19 hours and 47 minutes. I don't get it  |

69 million traumatic brain injuries Brain wallet: 12N2L3T1tt6adzL4iAXGtcCznKaB3u1rnC 12 million strokes 15CnpSrcL1Lqa5YpgwHGYtmmXBYodbzWGx 10 million new diagnoses of dementia 1DHxTbwDFqryVn6VZSizE21JBJ4Cw9JW3 5 million new diagnoses of epilepsy 1M3qaaWyYQRwFzrcF3fNE2qwCQP1sZ6uoP It would be really nice of some of the brain wallet hunters would comment here: would the above phrases pop up in your dictionary search? I'm pretty sure some of them would have found it if any of those addresses had any funds. Do you want to trust all your coins to those odds? I know I don't. The balance between "not losing access" and "preventing someone else from gaining access" is still something I'm not entirely comfortable with when it comes to crypto. That applies to brain wallets, backups and written down seed phrases. |

Now, with brain wallet, one will not need to worry about the above-mentioned hassles as it helps create a passphrase that can be relied on, and will not need an individual to create a wallet See: Collection of 18.509 found and used Brainwallets. But in a situation where the owner loses his memory or cannot remember his passphrase, what then happens to his BTC? Nothing. If you lose access, it's no longer your Bitcoin and it will stay unspent until the end of time. |

USERS FORUM STATISTICS
This is quite another way the number 120 plays a role on the forum, because as an active forum member, a user’s account statistics is always given in reference to the past 120 days, which gives a summary information about the user’s performance, merit sent and received within that period of time. That limitation is meant to reduce server load. Here you go: https://bitcointalk.org/merit.txt.xzSimilar to trust.txt.xz, it'll be updated weekly. It will show only the last 120 days of data; someone else should archive the old ones if you want them. So in conclusion, these are but a few ways I personally observed how the number 120 plays some significant role on the forum. It indeed seems like theymos likes to use 120 (more or less 4 months) for forum limits.
I'm now curious who user 120 was 
120days which is another way of saying approximately 3months. If you print this post, you can use it to ask your tuition back.As for why the number 120 represents a quarter of a year, which is usually a measure of activity by divide year into 4. Free tuition for you too! |

I may not do even that after all, since it's not easy to determine when exactly someone supported or opposed the flag and what their state of mind was at that time. That's probably for the best. I can think of (far fetched) ways to abuse this too: punishing someone for "voting" on a Flag can stop people from doing so. Then again, offering money can do that too: some people will vote, but others will be more reluctant because of the payment being offered. I have seen companies pay for review. Thoroughly reviewing a scam accusation takes a lot of time, and I considered this more or less a compensation for the time spent. But there's no checking if someone even read the scam accusation, and usually companies who pay for a review want to know for sure users actually tested it. |

an upgrade ~ to get access to your funds? What you're asking is not an upgrade, but the destruction of Bitcoin. There's one and only one way to get access to your Bitcoins: by signing a transaction using the private key. So make sure not to lose your keys, and make sure nobody else can access them. |

In the end, even if implementing privacy on protocol level would solve all our issues and exchanges & authorities would suddenly accept that they can't easily track Bitcoin anymore (highly unlikely in my opinion), I'd like to bring up one question. Do the people who currently use Bitcoin with 0 privacy (who would gain some by this procedure), deserve it? Do people who are ready to sell out their own PII without blinking twice, who are ready to run with all the 'criminal tainted UTXO' nonsense, deserve protocol-level protections of their privacy? Yes. Privacy is a human right. Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Article 12
No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks. If privacy is guaranteed on a protocol level, you don't need (to rely on) laws to protect you. Many people don't care about many things, but improving it makes it better for everyone. Including the people who couldn't care less. Because everyone who actually cares about privacy and Bitcoin as a whole, can already use Bitcoin pretty privately as of today, without (risky and time consuming / costly) protocol changes. In the beginning, there was no taint. Now there are "lists of tainted coins". Unless they're "unlisted" again after the FED sells them, the number will only increase. It's like religion: even if you don't believe it, you're still bothered by it. If Best Change is unreliable, it's not just a matter of not using their services. The responsible users of the forum should not advertise it in their signature either. There are currently 24 members in the Best Change campaign and one vacancy for which people are constantly applying. Up to the point where BestChange went with the "taint" BS, I had recommended them several times and started to trust them. After this, I'll be more careful recommending them, and even though I still trust their service, it changed my view on them. Let's highlight this part: AML purity for cryptocurrency transactions has become as important a property as it is for fiat currencies. It's totally different! If I deposit money to my bank, they may ask me how I got the money, but they won't hold the previous use of that money against me. I don't see why he hasn't been debated on that point in the thread. It seemed futile there. The same will happen with Wasabi signature campaign, good luck trying to convince people not to participate in the campaign. Most people's loyalties are flexible when it comes to earning money. But informing them is the first step: if they don't know about it, they can't take an informed decision. The casino I advertise has KYC requirements, like most of them. That's another thing: I would never send my documents to Costa Rica! Let me quote the website right right next to their registered address: "We accpet gambling". That doesn't sound like a company I'd trust with my identity. Isn't it funny they're licensed in Curacao but don't allow users from Curacao to use their site? |

From what I know about gambling sites there is a trend that is the same as what we are discussing in the thread. Years ago practically no gambling site required KYC. Nowadays there are a few left but less and less, so the trend in the future is going to be like that. If we want to defend privacy we should defend the gambling sites without KYC, and only play in them. But the fact is that privacy has been lost in gambling and the use of crypto gambling sites does not seem to have decreased. Isn't that because the owners too need to be able to spend their money legally? Anyone could create an online crypto casino, and as long as the owner is anonymous, they could run it on .onion and stay anonymous. But when they grow bigger, and the owners are swimming in money, they can't explain all that wealth to their local government without making their casino fully compliant. |

Timelord2067's remaining reviews would be a good addition to DT. True. I called it earlier: I'm surprised Timelord2067 is on DT again. That's a good moment to clean up bad ratings made in the past |
