901  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: I have a project, I expect your support. You can be a partner. on: September 28, 2023, 03:20:41 PM
Our site is under construction. Mobile software is out.

Required Update I did it on the site.

No matter how successful the first launch of your project is, it is difficult to obtain a return of 1 BTC from advertisements during the first two months, which makes the opportunity to obtain a loan without collateral very difficult.

Are you the main developer? If you are a developer, why do you use general sentences? For example, Project Special Software Forum Site. There is a free, open-source version of SMF that fulfills the purpose with some modifications that can be made to it for a freelance developer for $2000.
BTC and ETH Supported Forum Site Setup is easy. You can use BTCPAYserver unless you plan to accept customer funds or generate unique addresses for each address. Then it would be easier for the user to print his donation address below every response he makes instead of relying on you.

Makes no sense, and makes even less sense that they are experimenting with this kind of thing on mainnet and not testnet.

Actually it's a bug, @0xB10C on Twitter noticed on Sep 26, 2023 that there was Frequent invalid blocks being relayed on testnet in the last hours so we can say that they have MARAPool had a transaction ordering issue


tweet source https://twitter.com/0xB10C/status/1706695449598402868

So I think they were testing something on testnet and they did it again on mainnet
903  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Marathon Digital Holdings failed experiment on: September 28, 2023, 12:33:58 PM


Not sure what kind of experiments that they are running, but it good that the network rejected it. According to them they are doing some experiments to optimized their operations.

According to their assertion, the error was not intentional, and if it was intentional, you can think of it as a double attack from a mining pool that does not own more than 51%. Therefore, the block will be rejected and he will lose 6.25 Bitcoin + the transaction fees that were included. Some transactions that were confirmed within the block may be re-confirmed. The biggest loser is the mining pool, so it is difficult to believe that they did this intentionally because they are achieving anything here and it is not proof of anything.

I just imagine printing that method on A4 paper without using a metal seed.
Are you serious? At least you can say Fireproof and Water Resistant A4 paper is easy to tear, burns quickly, and I don't think a wipe will be enough to be able to read the words well.
905  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Telegram the den of scammers and hackers on: September 28, 2023, 11:50:41 AM
Modify the Telegram settings so that no one can add you to any group unless you have registered its number. Search for options to enhance privacy and choose the one that suits you. Since you do not provide a service or sell products, you do not need strangers to communicate with you.
Telegram is full of scammers and they always find a way to convince you and they are ready to put in a lot of effort for one dollar, so do not let greed control you and stay away from joining any channel or bot related to money or that promises you profits.
906  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bad Experience in Bitcoin Peer-to-Peer in CEX. on: September 28, 2023, 11:43:44 AM
For p2p I prefer to use stable coins in which the price is fixed and confirmation times are immediate, or try to make payments with high rate users. This is a situation known to people who have many transactions in P2P, so be careful to find a reliable seller and deal with him, even if his fees are high compared to choosing the best price, which Often an unprofessional seller.
The experience will vary depending on the liquidity, the nature of the P2P, the speed of the support team’s response, and how seller’s warranty rules
907  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How do centralized exchanges tolerate Monero transactions? on: September 28, 2023, 10:39:29 AM
Rarely does a centralized cryptocurrency platform have a deep blockchain analysis to know the details of transactions from the moment of mining, otherwise they will find that a good share of the coins in circulation may be suspicious so they do a simple analysis of the recent transactions, if they are from suspicious sources they will suspend the account and they rarely do that.
Part of the cryptocurrency platform's license is knowing all the information about the client, so most KYC exchanges prohibit Monero transactions.
Some CEX are trying to increase the number of users by listing Monero, but they are cooperating with the authorities and may close your account at any time, so if you are concerned about your privacy, use DEXs.
908  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Let's start the journey of working with Bitcoin by following the forum rules. on: September 28, 2023, 10:28:03 AM
Bitcointalk rules are the same as those you might find in any forum, but the administration here is serious about implementing them, unlike other forums. The plagiarism policy is very strict, with less severe policies for spam and AI posts, in which you receive a warning or the post will be deleted. The only unusual thing that you should be aware of is plagiarism, which leads to you being banned without any warning, but all the other rules are simple and should be followed by anyone who wants a healthy discussion.
909  Economy / Speculation / Re: After the bull-run plan. on: September 27, 2023, 11:54:37 AM
If I had the possibility not to sell my bitcoins, I would not do but those who sell either need to spend that money or they are planning to buy again after a year or two when prices are very low. most of those who want to keep Bitcoin in the hope of selling it at the highest price end up with not sell it at a high price, and they may sometimes sell it at the bottom instead of the top.
Without a good strategy, the best thing you can do is to sell as much money as you need and leave the rest until you need the money. $17,000 was a dream in the past, and after four years, this has become a very low price for Bitcoin.
910  Economy / Economics / Re: Is academic pursues enough to get incomes? on: September 27, 2023, 11:45:18 AM
Obtaining more academic degrees opens up an opportunity for you to have more social relationships. These relationships sometimes provide you with material gains if you exploit them well.

More education means more knowledge and the ability to analyze and deduce, which means you will have a better chance in the job market.
When you are employed, a higher degree means that you will be qualified for the job compared to someone who does not have a degree, but all of these data are related to the labor market and the availability of jobs. Is the competition to obtain these jobs fair or is it through mediation and the nature of competitors, as the more specialized your field is, the fewer people may want to learn it.

My advice to you is to have good knowledge about everything. Examine postgraduate studies and experience certificates in a field related to your studies in the lower degree, but it is not specialized, so that you have the opportunity to apply for several jobs if there is no job available for your degree.
911  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: [Discussion] Spiderchains on: September 27, 2023, 11:37:20 AM
I don't like the idea of having a peg, because that tends to imply "here are two different coins you can trade separately" which is usually the case for other pegs.
It is true that it is not a 1:1 connection and is not dependent on a third party (BitGo) as in the case of pegged tokens, but any Orchestrator will receive a slashing reward as long as this equation is adhered to:

BTC secured< ((4n^2)*s)/9 where n = number of signers and s = stake size per orchestrator

With this equation, we can say that if there were 5 signatories, each staking 5 BTC, then the maximum “safe” amount of Bitcoin in the multi-signature would be ~56 BTC, which is not good since their total Bitcoin is 25 BTC.

But if there are 30 signers each staking 30 BTC, you will find that the “safe” amount is ~12,500 BTC while the currencies being bet with are 900 BTC.

So the more Orchestrator nodes there are, the smaller the probability of having a large number of malicious Orchestrators in the same multisig.
But the question is what would anyone pay to run an Orchestrator node as income can only be earned from transaction fees which are supposed to be cheaper than on-chain fees.

This is a good explanation https://blog.lopp.net/an-introduction-to-spiderchain/, including the equation above

912  Economy / Economics / Re: Chase Bank New Policy On Crypto - Users Beware !!! on: September 27, 2023, 10:28:33 AM
Do you expect a financial and banking services company to encourage investment in Bitcoin? They will not do so, and if they notice that there is a high demand from customers, they will create an investment portfolio related to Bitcoin, and they must have the appropriate motive, which is to protect customers’ money from scammers. this investment portfolio will be centralized and you will not be allowed to withdraw funds.

I began to be optimistic about the price, as this news always appears at the end of the downward curve, and in how many months such news will disappear, to be replaced by real positive news and exaggerated positive news (as confirmation of the end of the upward curve).

913  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: [Discussion] Spiderchains on: September 27, 2023, 10:16:35 AM
I still have not seen how 2-way peg will be decentralized, as the network still needs a completely central intermediary in the first stage, and even if it is developed, it will be a distributed network of orchestrators with a limited number (the number cannot be greatly increased due to the volume of multiple signatures). It is closer because It will be decentralized and distributed. It is true that it will be much better than alternative currencies, but pegged 1:1 with BTC with blocks being mined every 12 seconds will create a finality problem.

The real challenge is their success in attracting a large number of Orchestrator nodes running. If this happens, then this may change, as spiderchains  are compatible with EVM, and it may mean attracting more projects.

How about this website?
Some of these sites are either closed, such as https://www.acceptedhere.io/, or are in maintenance, or need to update the list, but I think what @OP is looking for are services that design or print Bitcoin-related things, such as T-shirts, clothes, pens, books, artwork, and other accessories that you can find under the links to stores of YouTube channels.

916  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Wallet RBF Feature on: September 27, 2023, 09:16:32 AM
One block you get 26Sat/vbyte fee and the very next block is mined at only 7 Sat/Vbyte and this has been happening all day today. Don't know any special reason for this  Huh
these three blocks are

  • Block 809446 Timestamp ‎2023-09-26 17:24 Median fee ~11 sat/vB
  • Block 809447 Timestamp ‎2023-09-26 17:27 Median fee ~7 sat/vB
  • Block 809448 Timestamp ‎2023-09-26 17:42 Median fee ~26 sat/vB

Mining block 809447 took 3 minutes after 809446, which contained 2994 transactions. mining pool will not risk waiting for new transactions to come with higher fees, will broadcasting the mined block and earning 6.25 BTC instead of waiting for high fees that may be less than 0.5 BTC.
While block 809448 was mined with enough time for there to be many transactions with higher fees.

In fact, if two blocks were mined with a small time difference, many transactions may not be included in the new one because  block reward is higher than fees and this has happened many times
917  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Some information on Bitcoin on: September 27, 2023, 07:47:08 AM
Among the many countries that support Bitcoin are: the United States, Canada, Australia, and many European countries.Finland, Iceland, Spain, United Kingdom, Mexico, Germany, Japan, Denmark And some of the countries that don't support Bitcoin are: Bangladesh, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco. At the age of 2023, this number of people who have not yet supported Bitcoin has been given to Bitcoin.
This is your personal opinion, but at the national level, supporting Bitcoin as a legal tender will not be positive for countries, as countries are trying to centralize their economy and control all the money, but adding Bitcoin to the reserve and using it in international trade will have greater economic feasibility and imposing taxes on transactions and activities related to Bitcoin.

For individuals, purchasing Bitcoin may lead to a change in financial conditions if Hodling it in the long term, especially in developing and poor countries.

Take a look at Where to spend Bitcoin? by Ratimov to know where you can use crypto for getting services and many other stuff.
it's a great list, but some of it may need updating as services are encouraged to accept Bitcoin and when they don't find enough support they stop, so buying gift cards is the most stable solution.
This is a list of services that sell gift cards that enable you to buy almost anything with Bitcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5208530.0

When was the bitcoin white paper first published on bitcoin dot org ?
Was it published elsewhere also?
Do you mean before 2008, or the sites host it after that, or now?

After this message and in February 2009 the first talking about it in the P2P Foundation forum by Satoshi with a post titled “I’ve developed a new open source P2P e-cash system called Bitcoin.” I remember that the name was discussed in emails between him and Sirius, a.k.a. Martti Malmi
920  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you deal with financial stress? on: September 25, 2023, 03:23:47 AM
It is true that there is complaining or that the prices of products have begun to rise, but the nature of the people and individual actions will determine the degree of your tolerance. We have a prevailing culture in society of the importance of saving, so you will rarely find a person whose income = expenditure, but we save, and saving over the past years has made the impact of the shock much less than in many cases. Among the countries in which the citizen benefits from debts to provide luxury, the interest on these debts began to rise, and thus the money available to many became less.
Spending priorities may vary depending on the country, but the more skills you develop and start saving early, the less the impact of these crises will be.
