301  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor mailing list breached on: April 04, 2022, 07:27:18 AM
Oh not Trezor too. All these hardware wallets had their user data compromised. I got an update notification from the Trezor Suite and I installed the last version yesterday, I hope it's not the case as the Electrum fake update from a few years ago.
I'll check it as soon as I get back home. Sad
302  Other / Meta / Re: [April Fools] The Officially Unofficial Bitcointalk IQ Leaderboards and Stats on: April 03, 2022, 07:57:43 AM
As I said I “cheated" as I edit my post many times and refresh it many times to answer those questions that I know the answer. I did some "shots in the dark" based on logic but I failed few times.
Unfortunately It was more fun to play the QA role here and find a way to go around without looking for the answers in Google.
The questions mostly were English and US focused at least those I got.
303  Other / Meta / Re: IQ testing now required before posting on: April 01, 2022, 12:09:44 PM
Ha, If you refresh the post before you post it, you get a new question, lol. Am I cheating?
304  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Goodbye, privacy, goodbye, it was nice while it lasted. on: April 01, 2022, 12:02:12 PM
So now seems that I have to move everything from my trustwallet, binance, and my Trezor into Bitcoin core to be able to be still free.
It's gonna be interesting how things will go with the collectables like Cas coins etc.
I don't like to KYC but if my coins will be locked and unusable probably will go trough the KYC.
You can always have some coins a side for extreme situations.
305  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin 2022 Conference on: April 01, 2022, 07:48:41 AM
Damn, when will I have the time and the possibility to go on any of those Conferences. I'm dealing with bitcoin since 2013 and still never been to a actual meeting Sad
Now with family and kids I don't see it happening in the near future.
If anyone's attending, please post pics, at least to enjoy it remotely.
306  Other / Meta / Re: IQ testing now required before posting on: April 01, 2022, 06:52:24 AM
lol that was fun, crazy questions for sure. That will be a bit of a challenge to post, Feeling like in "Who Wants to be a Millionaire "
307  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: mtgox issuing free NFTs to users... on: March 29, 2022, 09:10:23 PM
Who's gonna buy those NFTs after the tragic story of MT.Gox? People won't trust magicaltux anymore.
It is a step forward but when you ruin your reputation like Karpeles i still wouldn't trust him.

 
308  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin searches Google Trends 2009 on: March 29, 2022, 09:03:22 PM
using Google Trends I searched for the word "Bitcoin" in 2009 to see where it was searched.
There have been so many theories about who Satoshi Nakamoto is, although yours seems quite different from the ones I’ve been seeing so far. But we can’t really say that the guy you have said to be Satoshi is really the one. There are so many Other people that have also been said to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto. And just because Hal Finney was the first person to receive Bitcoin doesn’t really make him the Satoshi Nakamoto, although I do get where you’re coming from and it is also possible that he can be the one, but the thing is that we just don’t have the proof that he is really the one. There is also Dorian Nakamoto lol, and both has denied of being the one.

yes but there was a considerable volume of research from Phoenix/Temple during the first week that Satoshi presented his project here. A town of only 36K people, explain to me how it is possible.



Well, if you hear about an interesting project, you probably will share it your friends, but not only with those who are on the mailing list but with those you go out for a beer. This could be the case, if Hal told someone about bitcoin he met in person this person most likely would go to search for it online. This is also a possibility.
For me,  Satoshi is not among the living people.. unfortunately.
309  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin - Projected Bottom and Halving on: March 29, 2022, 08:19:58 AM
I think we need more time to determent whether we are heading to the bottom, but my feeling is that the bottom is not anywhere near yet. There's still momentum to go up.

After the big money came to play with all those institutional investors the previously working good indicators now does not trigger the same events as before.

The last check was the Bitcoin dominance over alts failed to play as expected and we went in the downmarket even tho we had a high volume to sustain it.

I have doubts now that after China is out of the mining picture that the halving will have the same effect on the price and bull runs as it used to have before.

I just Hodl, seems the best practice for now.
310  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Change the Code, Not the Climate" FUD campaign coming next month on: March 29, 2022, 07:58:38 AM
Nothing will come out of this, or maybe just another alt as BSV and the BCH claiming to be the true green Bitcoin. Probably just a new way for a quick buck for some people selling the news, and probably many newbies will be fooled by this new "green" bitcoin but the original idea won't change any time soon as it has proven as the best solution by now.
311  Other / Meta / Re: [Results 2021] Bitcointalk Community Awards 🏆 on: March 26, 2022, 02:26:50 PM
Finally, congratulations to the winners! Well deserved IMHO.
And big thank you for those who voted for me even when I wasn't active mutch during the last year.
Great work OP. Bringing more life to the forum:)
312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Russia May Accept Bitcoin for Gas Exports, Lawmaker Says" on: March 25, 2022, 06:27:35 PM
 Image now how the Western countries will jump to buy the gas with bitcoins  /s
No. It will be exactly the opposite. The media will turn the bitcoin into the bad guy for avoiding the Russian sanctions and we will go back in another year of bear market.
We almost cleared btc name form the "scammer's money" or "the criminals money"  titles now we'll go back to the same narrative again...
313  Other / Meta / Re: [CLUB] The SpamBusters! Busting rule-breakers constantly. on: March 25, 2022, 06:12:37 PM
I very often find  by chance group of accounts which recently woke up and started spamming same threads.
Those look like the old type of bumping services which delete thier post after 24 hours.
Seems like they still get paid for their useless service.
314  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Crypto ads targeted NBA? on: March 25, 2022, 09:31:07 AM
Some teams have crypto sponsorship, like Sacramento Kings have an partnership with ANKR. It's only a positive way for crypto.
Here some interesting statistics about NBA fans interested in crypto : https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/insights/article/2021/slam-dunk-how-crypto-brands-are-making-a-splash-with-the-nba-and-fans/
Just bullish on crypto 😎
315  Economy / Reputation / Re: Trust abuse on: March 23, 2022, 06:01:17 AM
I'm so glad to see that problems can be peacefully resolved if there's communication between the two parties.
That was the civilised way.
There was so many fights here which ended with valuable users leaving the forum, I'm so happy this is not one of those.
316  Other / Meta / Re: List of Meta suggestions for Bitcointalk Improvement on: March 22, 2022, 10:29:49 AM
Oh I see my name there too. My suggestion got partly fixed by BPIP team and now my More menu looks like this:



The down side is that you need to have the browser add-on installed to get this and other benefits so it won't work for the newbies, as I initially thought.
BTW it will be nice if I can add/remove links to that menu manually in BPIP. Just an idea Smiley
317  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 19 Million BTC in two weeks' time on: March 22, 2022, 09:30:19 AM
19 Million BTC in two weeks' time, then by 2027, 95% of the 21 Million bitcoins' limit will be in circulation. Then it will take 113 years to issue the last 5%.

Bitcoin fixed supply makes it certainly very deflationary with ramping purchasing power.

- remotemass

That's the greatness of the system, and the Satoshi's genius, there is no and there will never be any Jerome Powell printing bitcoins.
This is why man cannot be bearish on bitcoin in longer term. The governments cannot steal your wealth with their tool of inflation, devaluing your printed money with printing more and more money and those pieces of paper are not backed by anything, the same way as the toilet paper.

So buy and hold BTC and your grand kids will be independent.

From my viewpoint - I like both yogg and krog and it saddens me to see such strife between the two.

But no alt should be used to garner merit or trust or be used to exclude or even include anyone into a trust list.

To do so is an abuse - was it intentional? I dont know, but once identified, it should be corrected.

Interesting case really, I am in the same situation as you. I like them both, I had contact with both without any issues and both have given a lot to the forum and mostly to the collectables.
As well as I agree that having alt in the DT gives you an advantage which i think should not be used like that. Many DT users have alts like LoyceV and LoyceMobile (i think that's his main alt, the rest are bots) but only the main account is on the DT.
I hope you guys find a peaceful solution because as I said I like you both.

I'll keep an eye on the thread, seems that I need to read a bit more on the case.

Somehow I missed this thread. Great work!
I hope those bitcoins will go to the right hands and finally reach the people in need. When there is a government involved, there's always a question how they will handle the funds, like what happened with the Bulgarian government "holding" couple of thousand bitcoins.
320  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: SCAMMER FROM BULGARIA BURGAS AKA PLAMEN NENOV on: March 17, 2022, 02:09:07 PM
I see the OP posted on the Bulgarian board as well, but again, we cannot verify what you are saying.
Post some proof otherwise all is just a bedtime story.
Another thing is where you got in contact with the guy? On the forum or somewhere else?
