Moral of the story: always be sure to double-check what website you're visiting before entering in any information. Same goes when you plan to connect to a website with Metamask...

lol.

sorry guys but you should have listened to me.

I'm the only person who commented in this thread with any credibility whatsoever. I really was just trying to help you -- to help the little guy not get sucked into a con.

Now the coin has fallen from #70 in the rankings to #839, in the period of 1 week! That has to be some kind of a record.

To me this kind of sounds like a backtracking. He first apologized for his statements about bitcoin in January:

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/09/jamie-dimon-says-he-regrets-calling-bitcoin-a-fraud.html

We have to remember this is the same idiot that said this about bitcoin in October 2017:

"If you're stupid enough to buy it, you'll pay the price for it one day."

Like duh, you're always "paying the price" for it, its never free. On top of that, the timing of his comment was woeful.

This is also the same bozo that helped bring us the great recession and one of the bankers that absolutely should have been jailed for his role in furthering the collapse of the stock market. If I'm not mistaken he is stepping down from his position of CEO at Goldman Sachs by the end of this year. At least that's what he said he would do earlier in the year.

who gives a shit about  Jamie Dimon's personal opinion?

People care because the idiots that comprise Wall Street are glued to his every word as if he were Moses or something. Needless to say, if he mutters the words "buy bitcoin," a bunch of morons with money will start throwing it at bitcoin. That's why people care.
8764  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for big lists of leaked bitcoin private keys & addresses on: December 10, 2018, 01:43:03 PM
Every Bitcoin and Ethereum private key is on this website - keys.lol

This site is awesome. Sometimes I click the "random" dice button just for the hell of it, though I know my efforts are utterly futile. What's funny is you can see that it actually is pulling blockchain data if you go to:

https://keys.lol/bitcoin/1

The first key listed has over 99 transactions. Unsurprisingly, there is also a used key on page 69, 10,000, and 1,000,000. And the very last page as well.

The people that run the Large Bitcoin Collider have analyzed over 50 trillion keys thus far and found slightly more than a bitcoin.

In case you're wondering, there are over nine hundred and four trevigintillion keys, or 9 followed by 74 zeros, rounding down.
8765  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: TechCrunch throws shade at Coinbase on: December 10, 2018, 01:29:14 PM
Lol, that is pretty funny.

Let's go through them one by one (OK, only the ones I have an opinion on):

Cardano (ADA) - this coin is a brain in a hat, and that's all. Zero real-world utility.
Dai (DAI) - stablecoin. The way it gets there (see MKR) is kind of questionable but it seems to work
district0x (DNT) - seems to work, people like it, let it be.
Kin (KIN) - who actually uses Kik? anyone?
Decentraland (MANA) - kind of a cool idea if they can keep developing it into a full-fledged virtual world
Maker (MKR) - don't understand what makes it valuable (see DAI), correctly allocating collateral?
NEO (NEO) - has potential
Po.et (POE) - a big nopetoken.
Augur (REP) - one of the oldest "oracle"-type platforms, still under development. if they could get it to work, it might actually be pretty cool
Request Network (REQ) - not even in the top 100, don't know what they're thinking here
Storj (STORJ) - the original filecoin... i wish them luck but wouldn't invest in it
Stellar (XLM) - adoption issues: who actually uses this coin, and why?
XRP (XRP) - only cool because everyone else is doing it, and, banks...

All the others I consider to be of too low importance to have an opinion about.

That's why we elected Obama in America. He was a clown. At least Trump is serious.

Cool

The only thing Trump is serious about is tweets. Man hasn't done jack shit. If you think he's anything more than a placeholder (like most other presidents) you are sorely mistaken.

Also, about Putin being a criminal, well, no duh. We've never suspected otherwise.

8768  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Real "Miners" shutdown the Mine, Unless they can make a profit on: December 09, 2018, 02:12:39 PM
Nobody brought up the fact that there is no set cost of mining.

While mining is concentrated in certain areas of the world, for sure, electricity costs vary dependently from country to country, state to state, county to county.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/15/the-cheapest-and-most-expensive-countries-to-mine-bitcoin.html

This guy posts nothing but troll, doom-and-gloom drudgery anyway.

When moon?

Pretty sure we've been there 3 times already. Every time the line crosses the trendline* going upward, that's moon territory.



So, potentially, theoretically, $100,000 by 2021.

*exponential trendline. And I realize nothing goes up exponentially forever.
8770  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I got my handmade Swiss Bitcoin watch and it is beautiful! on: December 09, 2018, 11:27:05 AM
It looks beautiful but is too expensive for me...  Grin
I have my own watch too but is only $40 (it called Xiaomi Mi Band 3 and without BTCitcoin logo like your watch) Grin and it's pretty good enough for looks stylish...


But you can already see the time on your cell phone... I guess I don't get it.

There is some reason why many people still buying a watch, is not only for see the time but is looking you look more stylish too...

Yeah but couldn't you get the same effect with a watch that was 10x cheaper? Nobody knows his watch costs $9,000, until he tells them, which I bet you he's itching to do. Lol. If his watch doubled as a BTC wallet that could perform transactions, that would be another thing. Still, maybe $3,000 total...
8771  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Large Bitcoin Collider (Collision Finders Pool) on: December 09, 2018, 07:07:12 AM
I'm curious, has anybody outside of the pool randomly found a priv key with a non-zero balance associated with it?

I saw the list of "trophies" section on the website, and at the time of the last recorded discovery of 0.54 BTC, that was about an $8,000 haul (assuming whoever found it kept the entire amount). Not bad.
8772  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not be this type of Bitcoiner on: December 09, 2018, 04:40:12 AM
Social media posts usually sound more radical and extremist,in order to get viral (more shares,more followers).
I don't believe that this guy is such a bitcoin fanatic.He just wants to spread awareness around the noobs,that bitcoin "is the future".This is more like a propaganda thing,instead of an honest statement.

You're right, this guy is more interested in collecting twitter followers than anything else. He knows how to push peoples' buttons by putting together combinations of buzz words.

He also fails to realize that you can't have bitcoin without a healthy economy. If the economy collapses, bitcoin is going down with it... It may resurface if a solid power grid and internet connectivity is still around, but its going to be one of the first high-risk investments sold off in the face of an oncoming stock market crash. Which people will then, however ironically, pile into fiat as a safe haven investment.
8773  Other / Meta / Re: Analysis – net posts created/destroyed in a month per rank on: December 09, 2018, 03:51:20 AM
Combining all that data, it looks to me that there are less Heroes posting than expected really (and I’d say that the 500 Merit difference to rank-up is massive as things stand, and works psychologically as a deterrent and not an incentive for Heroes).

I notice a lot of bounties combine Hero/Legendary into the same camp. Yeah I'm not sure I will ever get 500 merits. Maybe in like 3 more years of posting near every day. The 500 merit gap definitely is a deterrent. Interesting to see such a drastically lower % of Heroes active than Legendaries, but totally understandable.

8775  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees on: December 08, 2018, 11:20:09 AM

Will never happen. Is a pipe dream, just like everything that comes out of this 2-man bowel movement. Nobody wants SV. How come you guys just don't get that?

Craig's whole philosophy to his approach was, "We'll shove SV down everybody's throats by sheer force." Nobody wants to deal with someone so egotistical, mean-spirited and unhinged from reality. It creates too much unpredictability which is bad for business.

Show is over, SV lost and will never be "the real Bcash." there's nothing left to see. I'm retiring from commenting in this thread.
8776  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees on: December 08, 2018, 09:13:00 AM
Craig Wright may be receiving 1 million Bitcoins in BTC-Segwit & Bitcoin Cash & Bitcoin SV on Jan 1,2020 .
In that case he will have the ultimate economic power over all Bitcoin Networks.
In other words, he will be Bitcoin's Daddy whether he is Satoshi or not.  Wink
https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/satoshi-nakamoto-craig-wright-dave-kleiman-phil-wilson-bitcoin-creators-revealed/

Looks like the Ozzie, will be able to decide which Bitcoin is the winner by just selling the ones he wants to lose.  Cheesy

There's a few things you should know:

1. The story was written in August. Its not new news.
2. There's absolutely no proof that the "Tulip Trust" exists.
3. If it does exist, it presupposes that CSW is Satoshi, which he assuredly is not.
4. The number of BTC mined by Satoshi has been revised to ~600,000. Which is still enough to crush the market, but Craig is not moving them, on Jan 1st 2020 or at any time.

8777  Other / Meta / Re: Analysis – net posts created/destroyed in a month per rank on: December 08, 2018, 07:12:18 AM
This was really interesting -- I like seeing these types of analyses.

I'm wondering if the Legendary member count is so close to Hero because they are incentivized to post by being Legendary. Also its interesting that there are more Members than Jr Members. I guess Jr Member is sort of a short-term purgatory for those clearly set on advancing in rank, however it is never cleared by many.


-   Newbies are the largest creators of content (so as to say), being responsible for 309.351 posts in the period of time analysed (38,84% of all posts created).


 Cheesy

Yeah I would have also put quotations marks around "content"... that term is used pretty loosely. Its more like drivel at best and nonsensical spam at worst.
8778  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Make Bitcoin Great Again on: December 08, 2018, 06:44:45 AM
Today, the price of Bitcoin has gone down too much. Some of the people are getting some damage from it.i think that the price of Bitcoin will soon increase. Which would make us proud of Bitcoin.

This is absolute drivel. Whoever hired this idiot for their bounty campaign should seriously consider implementing some quality control measures. Same goes for the vast, vast majority of other posters and bounties.

What would really help bitcoin be "great again" (its already great now) is if it could somehow stop attracting greedy retards, however I do realize this is just a pipe dream.
8779  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees on: December 08, 2018, 04:10:17 AM

But yet it's still listed on numerous exchanges, how much more of your stupidity are you going to reveal?

Which ones decided that SV should hold the BCH title, as was your Master Craig's intention? Zero. I could ask the same question to you.
8780  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees on: December 08, 2018, 04:07:58 AM
That was all fake transactions

In bitcoin, there ain't no such thing as a fake transaction.

You're being willfully obtuse. Average SV blocks are smaller than BCH blocks, because nobody is using it.

All of the top 5 coins are up today. SV is down. Coincidence? I think not. SV will only fall from here.

The funny thing is I don't even like BCH but you SVtards are making me fans of it pretty fast.
