Congrats to those who held through the thick and thin and trusted in Bitcoin. No matter how much you hold, we're all part of the biggest financial revolution in recent times. Your avatar fit this post perfectly!
Yes, you are 100% correct. I don't think people realize how fragile Bitcoin was 'way back then' in 2009-2012. It could have broken at any point. The entire market cap was a few million dollars and it wasn't uncommon to see people giving away lots of BTC. The people who stepped up and started accepting BTC for goods and services when they were basically accepting a dream and a prayer for their goods/time are the unsung heroes of crypto. When I think about all the thousands of BTC I once held... It would have been nice to sit on them, but you never know what the butterfly effect would have been. Certainly if everyone sat on their BTC back then, Bitcoin would be worthless today.
This made me feel better about all the BTC I spent over the years. Many of us spent more than we should have but life comes in the way sometimes, and like you said, if everyone hoarded every coin they ever held we would all be sitting on worthless piles of magic internet money. |

I used to be a collector of stamps too but then gave up on expanding my collection. Good to see other fellow stamp collectors here.
Combine the two things I love (stamps and bitcoin) and I am in.
Following and will be in for a few of these.
Great work btw.

Start off Lot 1 at 0.008BTC.
Do you know the number on the Kialara by any chance? Looks to be above 700 but would be good to know the exact number.

I wouldn't say worthless. Sure, if you're sweeping those 0.001 on a bad day it could end up costing you between 5-10 percent in fees. Makes less sense to do so, and why would you even do that and ruin the value of the collectible.
I buy lower denominated collectibles only as novelty and just because I like collecting all sorts of stuff. They're also a great way to introduce others to Bitcoin and collectibles. Like I would never gift a friend/family a 1 BTC Cas or 0.1 BTC Lealana, but I would gladly gift them a 0.001BTC AlpenCoin or Polymerbit to introduce them to Bitcoin.
I don't plan on sweeping any of my collectibles ever and if it ever comes to the point that Bitcoin is worth so much that I wanna redeem, I will start with higher denominated ones and maybe sell the smaller denominated items to other collectors.
Just what I think. Others might have different opinion on this.

Interestingly the hackers didn't (or couldn't) sweep any locked funds from Furucombo smart contract, but they were able to extract millions worth of tokens from wallets of users who had interacted with Furucombo smart contract.
Sucks for those who lost any money due to this vulnerability in the smart contract.
This is like the third or fourth smart contract hack I've seen in recent times. Doesn't make the case for DeFi on Ethereum blockchain any stronger in my eyes.
Pro-tip: Don't keep any tokens on your Metamask wallet (or whichever wallet you use to interact with smart contracts), and if you do, make sure your authorizations are clean after every interaction you do with any smart contract. Costly? Yes. But it's better to spend a few bucks than to lose everything you have stored.

If you were to generate an address similar to this using vanitygen it would take a long long time unless you get extremely lucky.
That's incorrect. Vanitygen accepts regular expressions and although I am not great at regexp I still managed, after 3 minutes of searching the internet, to give the correct parameters to vanitygen and receive all-uppercase addresses. And in a couple of minutes, on my CPU, I already got 3 of them.  I am correct. Try generating one with "all uppercase letters" and containing no numbers. I recall someone mentioning a while back it would take 70 days to generate one. Might be less now with ever increasing CPU/GPU power, but nowhere near 3 minutes. Please give it a shot and let me know if you're able to generate one with the criteria I mentioned above.  |

I won't mention the case insensitivity of bech32 addresses because it's already been mentioned but thought I'd link you to this thread that contains many unusual addresses. Rare address hall of fameLinked on that thread I found a stackoverflow question under which a user mentions a legacy address that is all uppercase. 1QBDLYTDFHHZAABYSKGKPWKLSXZWCCJQBX This address is one of a kind as far as I am aware and it appears that it's owned by the autor of Armory Bitcoin Client. I have not seen any other similar addresses. If you were to generate an address similar to this using vanitygen it would take a long long time unless you get extremely lucky. |

Users just don't care in general because there's no incentive to report posts, yet there is an incentive to boost post counts. See where I am going with this? I do try to report posts every now and then when I see posts violating rules and everyone should be doing this imo to keep this place as clean from spam as possible. Your report is marked as good if it leads to a moderator action. Everyone who reported the post gets it, regardless if they replied in the thread or not.
A post can only be reported once. I think OP meant that they were able to report the post, meaning no one prior to them reported the said post. |

Welcome Evilish to this thread. Yeh shaid app ka first reply hay pakistani local board p. So it means k app Pakistan c ho ? _________________________________________________________________ There may be many members who are from pakistani but they never come active on this thread. G. Born and raised in Pakistan but now live elsewhere. Not my first post here but aaj kal yahaan ziada nahi aata. I see most of the discussions here are based around alt coins jin me mai ziada interested nahi hoon.  But acha lagta hai dekh kar ke community abhi bhi strong hai and it's still growing. I was active here around 2013-14 jab mining wagera aur technical topics par kaafi interesting discussions hua karti theen. There may be many members who are from pakistani but they never come active on this thread.
Yes yes there are... I think kafi “seniors” foreign born members hain jo British, American, Canadian ya European citizen hone ki waja se idher nahi aate  Even though our majority posts are in English ... but privacy ka kia hoga log kia kahin ge.... ہا ہائے پاکستانی تھریڈ میں پوسٹ کی اس نے۔۔۔۔ What do you mean "privacy ka kia hoga?" It's not like hum yahaan apna poora home address post kar rahay hain. |

Bullish in long term. Don't care much for short term.
But I would love a 30k again to load up on more BTC.

Some crazy price action going on right now. I just sold the ADA I held close to the top this morning as I think it's going to plummet once all the FOMO is over.
Got ~4x return which is good enough for me. Not that bad a return having gotten in only this year in January.
I'll be watching from the sidelines and might throw some money in again if the price plummets.
I could see both ADA and BNB going down in price and being replaced by USDT in terms of market cap. Whatever happens, it's going to be an interesting next few weeks in the market.

You got in at 4.2c and sold at 15 cents. That's close to 3.5x returns. A trade executed well I would say.
My advice would be to not live in the past and move on to the next trades with an open mind. If you feel Cardano is going to go up even more than it already has then buy in again. If not, there's still plenty of fish left in the sea. You just gotta look for it.
