You mentioned something similar in a different thread and I failed to understand why the pandemic bothers you so much that you don't want to participate in a bitcoin forum because of it. I still do. If you said I don't post as much because I don't like the white and blue background on the forum, that would make more sense to me.

I never visit the political discussions because most of it is off-topic to me. I care as much about what people on a bitcoin forum think of COVID as I care about the type of sneakers they are wearing - not at all. But I am interested in hearing if you don't believe there is a virus at all or you just believe it didn't occur naturally but was released intentionally as a biological weapon and a way for governments to achieve absolute control?   

When I got accepted in ChipMixer I asked the same question because I wanted to donate my first week's signature payment to a good cause. I got some decent responses in my thread Offering my avatar space for FREE and donating my 1st-week signature earnings. 

There are several projects operated by Bitcointalk members, like Royse777's Project Covid - 19 or the Bitcointalk Charity Program by cabalism13. Have a look, it might help you further. I remember seeing a donation fund by someone who wanted to build rice farms in Vietnam if I a not mistaken. I tried to look for it, but I wasn't able to find the thread.

What I would like to see is a bigger comment box and not just one line to enter your text in. My guess is that this is something that could easily be fixed (maybe?). Sometimes when you report a post, and your report includes several sentences that instruct the mod to take a look at a users' post history and you add links and mention which exact rules were broken, the report becomes quite long. It's hard to read when you have to move from left to right and it would be much clearer seeing it all in a bigger comment box.  

Teoretska mogućnost da se tako nešto uradi postoji ali to je jedna vrlo skupa operacija i neisplativa. Mreža je sigurna koliko oni koji je održavaju vode računa o svojim postupcima i o tome koliko će to uticati na buduću vrijednost a i povjerenje ljudi u taj Bitcoin. Mislim da je dosad bilo bezbroj prilika da se takav jedan roll-back uradi ili pokuša jer je stotine miliona dolara izgubljeno u različitim napadima, prevarama sa mjenačnicama, zagubljenim ključevima, itd. Srećom nije nikad urađeno.   

Bitcoinisti nisu zatvoreni za promjene i inovacije, oni samo neće da razmatraju bilo šta što ima ili može da ima negativan uticaj na sigurnost Bitcoin mreže, i njenu decentraliziranost. SegWit je inovacija koja je prihvaćena. Taproot i Schnoor signatures su prihvaćeni, tj 90% mreže signalizuje spremnost da ih prhvati i mogli bi bit predstavljeni u novembru. Lightning Mreža je prihvaćena i koristi se.   

Dosta ljudi se npr žali na Bitcoinov POW model i na to kako je štetan za okolinu, skup, kako mining postrojenja koriste fosilna goriva itd. Ali to mreži garantuje sigurnost, veću nego s čim se može neki drugi blockchain pohvaliti. Ne vjerujem da će se ikad odustati od POW-a osim ako ne postane ključno za budućnost i preživljavanje Bitcoina.

Apsolutno nemam ništa protiv Ethereuma a i sam ga imam. Ali kod Ethereuma je kod bio zakon do onog trenutka dok Ethereum Fondacija nije izgubila preveliki novac pa odjednom kod više nije zakon. Tako je onda i nastao Ethereum Classic. Bitcoinisti nisu radili takve stvari. Prije par sedmica je negdje pisano o tome kako je CZ (vlasnik Binance-a) nudio ogroman novac velikim Bitcoin pool-ovima da urade roll-back i na taj način ponište blok i blokove u kojima je Binance hakiran i gdje su izgubili par miliona dolara. Ljudi ga odbili. Ta nagrada nije vrijedna šteti koja bi bila nanesena mreži. Ethereum nije položio taj ispit.     

That will become a popularity contest where the most popular become even more popular. If you introduce a voting system, we can already predict the possible winners or some of those who will be in the top 5.  You are looking at one of the most merited and most frequent posters earning most of the votes. It's like when a famous singer or movie star walks into a shop. They close the shop down so he can shop freely and he gets everything he likes for free. His rich ass doesn't have to pay for it.   

Or, you will witness another phenomenon where the biggest local forums will vote for a member from their own local. Battle of nations. 

In my last reply I already posted that this riddle was solved by KingsDen who made a few posts just above yours. There is no need to repeat the answers already provided unless you are bringing something new to the conversation that wasn't already said in the thread. Feel free to keep an eye on this topic and try to solve one of the upcoming riddles once they become available.

NeuroticFish touched on the subject briefly, but I think we aren't giving enough credit to the members who spend every day browsing various threads and helping users who made mistakes or are in doubt about anything bitcoin. The sheer amount of knowledge and experience those people have is amazing and a pleasure to read. I often find myself thinking, how could they have possibly acquired all this knowledge and how long did it take? So if you ask me what is the heart of this community, I'll tell you it's the fact that you can get professional help and advice from patient individuals who will take on anything thrown at them, and most of the times, they'll find a solution. And it's free.

That is weird as well. Members on Bitcointalk who want to can participate in signature campaigns and be paid for positing and being active on the forum. I think that is more than enough. And that is more than what many other forums and online communities offer. All members who have a decent knowledge about crypto and can express themselves in a professional manner wont have much trouble getting into a campaign if they wanted to.

The coins they get from their signature campaigns are one part of the reward structure. The other part are the merits they get rewarded when someone appreciates their posting efforts. 

Have you tried PMing theymos and asking him directly? In my experience, he is quite responsive to things that concern the forum. When I had some doubts in the past, I PMed him and he responded. When I found some bugs, he even checked back after he corrected them to see if everything is OK now. Make him aware of this thread and your request, you have got nothing to lose. Unless he bans you for unsolicited PMs    

Honestly, I have never seen it or experienced my computers blocking Electrum. The machine I am on right now uses a genuine Windows 10 operating system and Windows Defender + firewall. I have a 4.0.9 version of Electrum installed on it and it has always worked without any hassle. I don't have any money on it, but I keep it installed just in case.

Windows Defender keeps blocking an office loader (crack) for MS Word every now and then, but never Electrum.

That's because we are stuck to the television screens watching the best two games this EURO 2020 had on offer until now. Wow, what a show. No one deserved to get knocked out yesterday, and yet someone has to go through. I really thought Croatia would have a mental advantage over the Spaniards following their two quick goals in the last 5 minutes of the game, but it wasn't to be. 

France missed a bunch of chances last night, especially Mbappe. What a screamer from Pogba though. He reminded me of the days when he used to play for Juventus and he was a proper football player. Hopefully he will get back to doing what he does best, and I don't mean dyeing his hair. 

The organizers are prepared for the pump & dump scam well in advance. Weeks and maybe even months before the scheme is planned to take place, they start buying the coin in small amounts as to not arouse suspicion or create hype. When they have enough, it's time for the event. They create their sell orders well above market value and send the signal to the unsuspecting members to start buying. When they do, the group members buy up the bags from the organizers earning them a lot of money, and end up becoming the new bag holders of a coin that will probably never get to those highs ever again in the future.

The Riddle was solved by KingsDen.

One could protect his passphrase in plain sight. Let's say this is your Electrum seed > https://en.bitcoin.it/w/images/en/6/60/Mnemonic-seed-still-life.jpg.
You could use the first, second, or any number of letters to create your passphrase. Naturally, you are relying on your memory not to forget which letters you used.

You would get something like this: WCPFSODCRAIC iorehperogie 

I am not sure how reliable sites like https://howsecureismypassword.net/ are (don't enter a real password into in no matter what), but it says it would take 15 octillion years to crack it.

That is one theory and it is a possible one. If they are the developers of that coin, they could do a pump and dump campaign to sell what they own at a higher price. But what if it's not their coin? What if they aren't part of the team? When and where did they get the coin and how will they profit from its sale?

I kind of share dkbit98's view and I wouldn't want to use a brand-new asset as collateral. Collateral should be something I wouldn't want to lose or something that would make me think hard before deciding not to respect my side of the exchange. Bitcoin is such a collateral that meets that condition. A new $TRADE token would be too volatile, and I don't see too much potential value in it.   

Yep, you did. The two YouTube videos indeed confirm that he was an official ambassador for BK8 in the past. Btw, the video on the page that shows the behind the scenes photoshoot and the second YouTube video you posted are the same. Nevertheless, thanks for confirming and removing my doubts!

if you are looking at the dollar value, yes. But many bitcoiners will tell you that 1 bitcoin is always 1 bitcoin. Therefore, the person owning 1 BTC has it 100 times worse than the one owning 100 units.

Says who? You can't make that claim. We are all hoping that will be true, but it's not a certainty. What if tomorrow someone discovers a devastating vulnerability in the code that could result in the end of what we know as bitcoin?

Of course it's the amount. If the person from the beginning of your post never sold his 100 coins, you wouldn't have to compare his portfolio to the others.

FCA has not prohibited UK citizens from using Binance, they are just advising people to be careful about the speculative nature of crypto. This is about Binance Markets Limited not having a license in the UK, and the FCA is pushing them to comply with its regulations to be allowed to carry on their operations. As soon as they do, they'll be considered regulated and allowed to do business on UK soil.   

The article claims that UK citizens are not allowed to speculate on the price of cryptocurrencies, but they can buy and sell them.
@OP, don't speculate. Just buy and sell.

I am leaning more towards it being the default Tron derivation path.

Atomic Wallet has a list of derivation paths used by their software on their official website. It shows m/44'/195'/0' for Tron.
I added Tron to Coinomi on my phone to check what path it shows there and it's the same. It's giving me M/44H/195H/0H.
Trezor hasn't added the derivation path in their docs. The source is probably outdated.
