We will see how Musk responds (or doesn't). Anonymous can really do damage if they want.

That really was expected.

Ethereum is a top coin with many uses and with a solid team and a genius inventor behind it. Also it is going PoS and greener. There are simply no reasons not to invest in it.

Chess is a great offline game.

In the below 6-minute video, it is explained why Bitcoin is a fraud where a gift record is falsely presented to the public as a market item.

If anything - Bitcoin has the most transparent and verified way of working/existing as a system. The blockchain is awesome! Nothing to worry about.

With 10 quid you could learn how to do a transaction. Create a couple of wallets and practise transfering in between them. It's still very useful knowledge for a beginner.

Will you sell it for scrap now?

This is a sweet dream, but what are you planning to mine in order to be profitable?

What are you planning to mine? If you only rely on ETH, it will be "quite hard" after their update.

This is perhaps the easiest and the quickest way to lose your money.

Walking around the city. I have come to appreciate this activity much more recently.

In my option Bitcoin will always continue to live on. Even if it happens to fall to $10000, $1000, $1 or $0.10 remember that there are always going to be people resurrecting it. Because of the community, because of the idea, because of the recognisability.

I am so fed up with Elon, becoz of him I lost 50%. Whatever he writes and post have huge effect on BTC. Check this article: Elon musk shows in Green Bitcoin Mining operations helping BTC surge to $40k

If Elon Musk helps Bitcoin go green, this might turn out to have been worth it, for the long term.

This really doesn't seem long for a 14 year old laptop and a 6 letter phrase. Isn't it supposed to be more difficult?

Depends on whether you're searching for bc1 or 1 address. bc1 is not case sensitive which greatly contributes to faster times since the program does not have to consider every combination of uppercase and lowercase letter, but a normal 1 search is case sensitive.

Considering that 4-5 characters (+ case sensitive) can be found almost instantly, it's not surprising that 50% of 6-char search space is exhausted in a few days on old hardware. Newer computers have faster cores with more threads and can search the same 50% of space in several hours.



Thank you - this is really a great explanation right here.

A snake game on Trezor would actually be a great idea and it wouldn't be so hard to program.
17  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Best Second Hardware Wallet To Buy? on: May 29, 2021, 03:26:06 PM
I would suggest Trezor One as a great second hardware wallet. It's small and very user friendly and also quite affordable.
18  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: SafePal resellers on: May 29, 2021, 03:16:17 PM
For security reasons, I would always advice buying directly from the company's website.

How long is this going to take?

USB flash drive can still serve as a good backup device but should never be used as your only wallet.
