I would not use SMS that way, personally, because, that's exactly how hackers sim swap to get into your account. If I have google auth, or the secret, I keep that stored separately. Then I can always use that to generate the new time based one time code that changes every 30 seconds.
I actually don't use a phone or mobile device for my google auth codes, I use a separate computer. I'm compromising in other forms of security but generally it's still better than what most people use or do.
Don't break your phone, or make sure you have the secret so you can easily use it on any other phone or device.
Except they likely have shit password on the email and shit password on the account. Lastly they do not do what I do which is have no phone with any coin access. If you want to pay with a coin use a debit card like the one coinbase has. I put 300 in USDC on it. No cost to do that and when I use it I get 1% back in BTC. My greatest vunerability is gun to the head of a loved one. That involves a lot of commitment and basically anyone with money has the same weakness. The exception to this would be Verbal as played by Kevin Spacey in "the usual suspects". |

Thanks for the info, I didnt know that gambling threads got locked that frequently.
You said you are 14. I am pretty sure it is locked because it represents an issue for the owner of the website. This website is USA based and no state allows 14 year old people to gamble. So the thread was locked to protect the website. I answered you with the correct answer which is to stop and save yourself years of heartache. You next reply was I am going to continue to gamble. So If this was my website I would lock you out. Due to your age. |

Precisely. I actually do use a dedicated tablet for that separate from my phone and other computers. It stays turned off and stored in a secured/locked, non-disclosed location when not needed, and I only turn on wifi for about 1 minute only to re-sync the google auth codes when needed every few months when I use it, and then turn wifi right back off again. The secret is stored offline and secured. I do all crypto related activity on a desktop only (with a hardware wallet), not on a phone. Actually never on a phone. It boggles my mind that most crypto people I read about do everything, including crypto wallet storage and also authentication to their crypto accounts, all on one single device: their phone. Are they fkn stupid? It's almost like they want to get phished/hacked/scammed out of their crypto. I will say one thing though: we will never achieve mass adoption of Bitcoin until storing and using crypto is as easy as having and using a bank account online. The masses will never jump through all these technological hoops in order to adopt bitcoin. They are too afraid of fucking something up and getting hacked. But you should have $1000-$2000 on your phone if you have a lot of $$ and they find zip on your phone it looks shady . They may go $5 wrench to unlock your phone and you do not have a dime on it. My father-in-law owned a bar he went home with 3 bank rolls. He would use 1 for the nervous thief He would use 2 for the calm thief and he had the third ready for the really smart thief He never needed the 2nd or 3rd bank roll. |

Chia is an interesting thing.
It just dropped prices for HDD. At least in my country.
Because it was a hype-period when all was purchasing HDDs at overprices.
And now as it becomes not such profitable, many-many used HDDs (but with 1.5 - 2.5 year varranty left on it) are on po market.
I was even able to purchase some 4Tb Seagate green new condition for just 50-55 USDs.
It is now farming XCH on Hpool.
Very soon will be time for gpus to crash so hard, idiots have been buying overpriced gpus no stopping, making huge farms and all those gpus will be resold 10 times cheaper than they are right now. Nope you called the crash since jan of 2021 it is now sept 2021 so far you are eight months off. Gpus are simply not crashing till late 2022 or early 2023. you made a good call on the 2018 crash. you warned about it dec-jan 2017 So far you crash calls for 2021 are a fail. take a break and start the crash call back up in feb of 2022. |

Microsoft Authenticator app, Windows Hello, a security key, or an SMS / email verification code instead of a password Pro tip: Never ever ever ever ever ever use SMS authentication. Why in the world do they offer that as an option??? They can't get google auth to work properly or something. Or there are certain apps like Authy that require all sorts of voodoo to work and I prefer to just get the secret code and not require this particular app. Why can't they just show the secret at the time you activate it? I mean, some legacy trading platforms and banks use SMS, and I don't mind, because they're ancient. google auth has issues if the phone breaks. sms does not have the issues. So they use sms. If you are locked out of your account due to a broken phone and have sms. Buy a new phone port the old number and you have sms working. If this happens with google auth the new google auth does not work as it will not be synched. Sms can be made secure more secure if crossed linked to an email and the email is crossed link to a password. |

Op at 14 I used gamble way over my head.
I gambled over my head for years and finally stopped at the age of 33.
So stop now and save yourself years of losing and feeling bad for your self.

Pretty safe after all they are still running 3 or 4 years later I think they are from 2017?
TDP does not mean much as temps trump it.
Lower TDP with good cooling lowers temps.
but if you pull 100 watts and are 85c
it is worse then if you pull 110 watts and are 75c.
=== bad cooling may be why if a 100 watt draw runs hotter then a 110 watt draw. =====

A lot of 48's and 49's and a few 47's
Maybe we can push 47,980 off the list today.
We still have time to move to all 50's
as there are 25 days of 47+48+49. and over 105 days left to move them all out.
It's feat in and of itself how you (or anyone else for that matter) could squeeze 105 days out of a 100 day chart, without leaking into any of the other charts.  Well the internet can make communication hard vs easy. Sept. 15-30 = 16 days Oct. 1-31 = 31 days Nov. 1-30 = 30 days Dec. 1-31 = 31 days total of 108 days left. Seems to be over 105 last I looked  So 108 shots to knock out the 25 days of 47,48,49k. |

anyone actually running the numbers to check these claims?
Actually since I mine and do not buy and hodl the people that compare the two are always wrong. They are not comparable other that they involve crypto coins. Best example is this put $1,000,000 usd in the bank and collect interest = buy and hold. put $1,000,000 usd into a fleet of limos and open a wedding + party service. they both involve 1,000,000 usd that is all they have in common.
Same as buying $1,000,000 in btc and holding It. or buying a $1,000,000 mining farm. they both involve 1,000,000 usd to start up that is all they have in common. Now you could compare putting 1,000,000 usd in the bank and collecting interest on it to buying 1,000,000 usd worth of btc and getting interest on it from an exchange |

BTC price: $47,035. Looks to me like it's going to be an increase, though not be large (i.s. ~2% ). Nah we go to 3-4% and price drifts to 49-51k but what do I know not much. |

These steady 45-47 numbers are working along with gentle diff raises . I feel there is a controlled dampening of price due to lack of chips. |

To give an idea of a 2eh investment look at nice piece by fillippone
...
This is a very nice answer to give to someone asking "is it profitable to mine at home?"
Sorry, this is a great example of "back of the envelope calculation". I have to steal it.
...
Damn I did all this cropping and forgot what to say. oh I know mine with gpus at home convert the eth to BTC My power bill was 1700 July 1 to Sept 14 in my home. But I mined 3700 worth of btc on nicehash so 2000 usd in 75 days. all in my garage. with 16 cent power . The difference for me is if mining falters I can move the gear to our main location. |

To give an idea of a 2eh investment look at nice piece by fillippone https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5359284.msg57904934#msg57904934from above each window is 13x12 = 156 pieces so 20,000/156= 128 windows were added world wide in the last 7 days.  now that is based on 50-50 new and old gear just saying the new is 128 windows the old would also be the equivalent so 256 windows like the photo above translation big money companies are investing in infrastructure and gear = very bullish. |

We are getting back to 47k. Current diff is very bullish. +2.49% https://www.bitrawr.com/difficulty-estimatorLatest Block: 700539 (11 minutes ago) Current Pace: 102.4905% (988 / 963.99 expected, 24.01 ahead)Previous Difficulty: 17615033039278.88 Current Difficulty: 18415156832118.24 Next Difficulty: between 18788753691860 and 18923655404394 Next Difficulty Change: between +2.0287% and +2.7613% Previous Retarget: September 7, 2021 at 8:05 PM (+4.5423%) Next Retarget (earliest): September 21, 2021 at 11:55 AM (in 6d 23h 10m 11s) Next Retarget (latest): September 21, 2021 at 2:02 PM (in 7d 1h 17m 34s) Projected Epoch Length: between 13d 15h 50m 6s and 13d 17h 57m 29s this indicates large money being put into new gear. along with relocation of older gear. Both are bullish signs. 2.5% means 4eh in gear Pretend 1/2 is new and 1/2 is old so 2eh in new gear. if it was s19j only it would be 20,000 of them or 200,000,000 million usd worth of new units along with the infrastructure to run that. about 20,000 x 3.3 = 66,000,000 kwatts of power or 66 mega watts hourly . |
