May I suggest to use your vote to counter the things you don't like?

This got me thinking:
Would an extension be able to create an upload button for embedded images (apart from the issue who's going to store it)?

I don't think Admin needs to do it: icopress could set a rule that disqualifies anyone who Merits posts in the topic before the deadline passes.

"The Dark web" runs through Tor, which is designed to keep your IP private. Making up stories about leaking IP addresses sounds like something a scammer would say to put up a smoke curtain.

There's a problem with this description: there are no Bitcoins "on the Dark web", Bitcoins are on the blockchain.

You should probably reconsider calling him a "friend".

Nope. The real problem is they're scamming you.

Yes.

You'll get a warning page if you go to fast. I've also seen bans for bots that use multiple IPs so don't go there.

I get 2,376 results on that link. If I add double quotes, I get 8 results.

If I search my archive on your posts, I get only one match for "public key addition":

That's your post above. If I would download your post history, I may find it again if you edited those posts later.

The problem is we can't know which posts are edited, without checking all posts again. And downloading all posts takes about half a year.

Don't worry about it: getting Merited means the user has more to lose, so the ban hurts more

Yep Amazingly, I'm not even in the list anymore. That hasn't happened in years! I guess that means I don't Merit enough Newbies.

Unfortunately, your sample song is much easier than the real words Electrum produces.
Try to make a song with this:

You can create many seed phrases from your wallet (let's use Electrum), until you find one that works well for you to remember. This way, you still have a properly generated random seed phrase that won't easily be guessed by someone else, and you can end up with words that are easier for you to remember. It's tricky though: after not using it for a wile, chances are you forget some words.

To be clear: how much did you pay him?

Doesn't such an amount set off all kinds of alarm bells at the bank?

How exactly did he do this? The dark web is not a place where people use their own bank accounts, they use money mules.

Why do you ask someone who doesn't know what he's doing to buy Bitcoin for you? And why did you trust him to do this?

You got scammed. Go to the police. Both of you have a lot of explaining to do.

So you tried to do something illegal, someone took advantage of you, and now you can't do anything because you'll end up in jail. Sounds like the perfect crime, except for the bank transfer that leaves a paper trail.

That's bad advice
Every native Segwit address has the same 4 characters ("bc1q") already, and the last 4 can quite easily be brute-forced. To be sure, just take 20 seconds and compare the full address.

So you paid more than $700,000 to your friend?

You're either incredibly dumb, or lying. I hope for your sake you're just lying. This sounds more like something a drug dealer would do to launder his money.
How did you transfer the 700,000 dollars to your "friend" and to the Darknet?

Yes. That is quite literally what I said.

A lot lower. See Coinmarketcap.com.

Maybe. I never bothered about that one.

You tell me: what stopped you from doing it?

People have lost their coins in so many different ways, I can't guarantee nothing will go wrong.

I don't think storage cost matters much. It's all about liability.

Bitcoin isn't going to kill Paypal. Their competition nowadays comes from Apple Pay, Google Pay and Alipay. Websites on which I used to use Paypal now just know and remember my creditcard number.
Paypal used to be the only option, those days are long gone. I can't wait for Bitcoin to be more commonly accepted though, I'd gladly surrender the "security" of a creditcard for being my own bank.

Check Recent Posts often enough.

Maybe @TryNinja can get you a copy of his posts archive. I could do it too, but mine is in 2 different formats so more work to figure out.

See what happens if you make it 4 sat/vbyte.

As far as I know, there's a certain minimum amount to increase the fee by. What fee (in sat/vbyte) are you trying to set?

I saw your request to support your type 2 Flag against Stunna. I have not supported it.

How long does this usually take? Can it take months or even years if there's a legal procedure involved? Or will you assume no foul play happened if no evidence can be produced within a reasonable amount of time?

So you admit to identity fraud. That being said, I'm not sure what the (legal) implications of this will be. I don't really see how your identity matters as long as you're not involved in match fixing. My assumption is that KYC is meant to know who to report to authorities in case there is evidence of (illegal) match fixing.

That means the Flag is slightly inaccurate:

Even if it's a much longer list of private keys, you can use something like bitcoin-tool to convert them into addresses and comm to check which ones have a balance. This way you can check millions of addresses in seconds.

That's 2 years ago OP seems to have abandoned this topic too.
