Is Antivirus still a good way to avoid some malware on my PC? I want to start working on my PC online but I don't have any Antivirus or security on the system since it's been year's since I work on PC last, also I have two to three crypto wallets on my PC.
Antivirus or Internet security softwares can not protect you completely from all threats on the Internet. You should be responsible to protect yourself first with your healthy web-surfing behavior.

It's bad idea to store your coins in wallets on a device that is used daily and with daily exposure to the Internet. Your coins, wallets should be store offline, air-gapped if possible. The best practice is only connect your wallet to the Internet when you have to broadcast transactions.

Remember, even after installing a wallet, when you create seed for a specific wallet, you should do it offline.

I don't know about the marketcap but you can check here the price history of bitcoin https://www.investopedia.com/articles/forex/121815/bitcoins-price-history.asp

And check this for the first transaction made on history of bitcoin https://coingeek.com/13-years-ago-satoshi-nakamoto-sent-hal-finney-10-bitcoins-in-bitcoins-first-transaction-ever/
It is the first transaction ever between two people, sender and receiver. It's between Satoshi Nakamoto and Hal Finney. They both have accounts on the forum.

However it is not the answer wanted by OP. The first buy (or exchange) transaction between two people is what results in Bitcoin Pizza day. This

Lightlord already clarify that he had recovered so there is nothing we need to ask for his health.
He said so but after that, in latest months, he has been less actively on the forum. Less log-ins, less posts, significantly less than normal. I am not sure he actually recovers well from this health issue.

If his casinos don't have issue with payment for users and hot wallets are not emptied and can proceed payments, I don't think we have valid reasons to ask about his casinos and his health. Especially his health issues, I think we should give him peacefully to recharge energy. I only see strange that he made a few posts, less than 5 maybe in last few weeks. Strange to see he does not post any update in BitVest and 777coin.

If any business owner cant get profit from a business then the owner of the business will not invest on the business. And for this case if lightlord cant make profit by the signature campaign on bitcointalk then they may not run the signature campaign on here. But overall it is true that the war between ukraine and Russia affected almost all the business and for gambling the price of crypto is also affecting.
I think he will only run signature campaign when all things are good in his side (if there are actually issues). So far, I don't think he will do it in near future.
2164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Final! on: May 28, 2022, 01:24:40 PM
If we look at the performance of Real Madrid in the process of reaching the final round, it can be considered that their journey is very tough, where they managed to beat PSG, Chelsea, and Man City. Well, even though Real Madrid can get rid of a lot of big teams, that doesn't mean they can easily beat Liverpool because I think both Real Madrid and Liverpool are at the same level, so they both have an equal chance of becoming the Champions League winner.
Real Madrid have done many impressive comebacks against strong opponents, PSG, Chelsea and Manchester City. They have strong belief in this final that they can win it even if Liverpool has leading goal first. With such strong mentality, it is very hard to beat Real Madrid.

In addition, some of Real Madrid players know that in the end of their career, they likely have their last final match in Champions League. Modric, Benzema knows that they should win it because in future, they might not have any chance to play in final match in Champions League.

I don't think this final will require both teams to decide victory on penalties, although it's possible but I really don't expect it to happen. But I have doubts about that. I didn't expect the final to result in a lot of goals even though it looks like both teams can score. Liverpool have hopes of winning the match, so do Real Madrid but if I had to choose then I think Liverpool looked more deserving of the favourites tonight.
Real Madrid will have more difficulty with their older players than Liverpool but Real Madrid actually have some good young players such as Valverde, Rodrygo, Vinicius, Camavinga. They can be helpful players and substitutions for them if the match goes to extra time.

Although Liverpool have a younger age in average so they will have more advantage if the final goes to extra time, it does not mean The Kop will easily to beat Real Madrid in extra times. Their opponent are experienced enough to play defensive aggressively and wait for opportunity to score decisive goal if The Kop play carelessly in last 30 minutes of extra time. We see it in football many times. A dominating team will want to finish a match without penalty shoot-out but sometimes they were beaten by very late goal of opponent.

I have a better idea for this. You can identify if a VPN is reliable or not just by looking at their website, and their "Free tier" offering.

When either of these are badly looked after (a crappy website UX or extremely limited servers in free mode), its an indication that there are probably other websites out there that have better paid plans than what you can get in these places.
Thank you. It is a good trick to get an overview on quality of a platform. I bookmark it for quick checking on my side. Anyway, for Bitcoin-vpn, as a review site, I think my suggestion for them still makes sense. They should give an easier overview for guests by one way or another.

I have a different view: a "free" VPN means you're the product. Unless they use a limited free account to promote their paid account (like Protonmail), I'd assume they could be selling my data to earn from me.
In fact, there is no free lunch. Personally, if I try to get experience a new platform, I would prefer to use my throw away email for registration.

Mullvad used to offer 3 hours for free on new accounts as a promotion, but stopped doing that.
Did they write about reasons they stop it?
2166  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Bitcoin-vpn.com - a huge list of Bitcoin and other crypto friendly VPN providers on: May 28, 2022, 05:42:50 AM
I would like to see a list of your reviews ordinarily from the best to the worst, based on your own review criteria and total review points. It is my suggestion because for people who don't have experience with VPN providers, it is difficult for them to read all of your reviews and choose a best one even just based on your reviews.

Is it possible to have it on your website?
It can be a table or just an ordinal list based on rankings.

Bitcoin is for the 100% or in other words, for everyone.

However, it is a zero-sum money game. So everyone are free to join but there are winners and losers in the game at specific period. In future, more capital will flow into Bitcoin market that will contribute to its higher marketcap but the zero-sum money game is still the same.

Hype, FOMO are parts of this game. It is an explanation why each four years, there is massive hype around Bitcoin even people know very well even years ago that halvings are scheduled each four years. They also know about the Controlled supply of Bitcoin. [1]

There are many exchanges were hacked, went bankrupted or exchanges made scam exits. One of famous exchanges that were hacked and disappeared is Cryptopia. They have an announcement thread on the forum.

You have your money, use it to buy cryptocurrency but you only own your coins if you store them in non custodial wallets in your own devices. If you leave your coins on exchanges, you don't actually own your coins.

But I believe that this will be serving as good example for all who wanted to start their casino to use this experience and will never happened again in the future.
Rules are clear on good platforms in Terms of service, FAQ, Terms of condition, but cheaters don't read or they read and ignore it all. They believe that they are skillful enough to cheat successfully.

Quote
I also believe that there are group of people that i have read before on who's doing this cheats and if they did not get what they wanted? then will start attacking the site .
Then in the end, when they get caught and accounts suspended, frozen and can not withdraw money, they call a platform on which they cheat a lot, is a scam one. Such scam accusations end with Negative, Fail for cheaters. Rarely see but in some cases, there is need for mediators to investigate proofs from platform and user, then final result will be made with agreement from three sides: platform, user and mediator.

so Good luck to Bitlucy team as they will surely having tough time in restarting their site.
Good to see they are back, and become better with latest upgrade. I am waiting for a partnership between BitLucy and a project I am working with too.  Cheesy

Where do you know that Real Madrid are the favorite or it is favorited by who? Average odds in most bookmaker shows that Liverpool are the favorite to win with odds 2.00 while Real Madrid with odds 3.5. Looking at the overall performance of both teams in Champions League, Liverpool are better than Real Madrid. However, we cant deny the fact that Real Madrid has better experiences in Champions League than Liverpool. For me, there is no favorite for the final match because I think the chance for them to be the champion is equal.
You are right about odds over bookmakers but let me remind you that the odds don't reflect real strength of two teams. Real Madrid and Liverpool are not too different in quality. They have very good players, good coaches and quality is almost the same. Experience is mostly the same and Real Madrid even have more experience from players to coach than Liverpool.

We see Mourinho made history with Roma in Conference League as a first coach who can win Champions League, Europa League and Conference League, a third one who win European titles over three decades after Alex Ferguson and Trapattoni.

Now Ancelotti will make his history as a first coach who can win 4 Champions League trophies, the first ever in history of Champions League. He already manages his teams (AC Milan and Real Madrid) to win 3 Champions League, 2 with Milan and 1 with Madrid.

Liverpool have already eliminated one of the most toughest Spanish football club Villarreal in the Uefa Champions League this season, Liverpool will just need to beat one more Spanish football club Real Madrid in order to claim the Uefa Champions League trophy.
Villareal are weaker than Real Madrid and they ended this season in La Liga beyond top 4. In reality, Liverpool got lot of troubles when they played against Villareal. We can not use these two matches between Liverpool and Villareal as well as general performance of Villareal and Real Madrid in La Liga to say Liverpool will be beaten by Real Madrid. But it seems they will have a stronger opponent in the final.

I don't know about OgNasty and what happened with him in the past. I only talk about him, his contribution from my experience. Honestly, OgNasty has made some good initiatives to educate people about Bitcoin. This way, he truly is a Bitcoiner. Educational initiatives are good to boost Bitcoin adoption and not only this, education will help people to have better knowledge and be safer in crypto.

regardless of the defensive tactics used by Jose Mourinho, I think they deserved to win this, Mourinho and the Roma players have played very well on the Europa Conference League stage this season and in the final I don't think there will be any surprises, AS Roma are very favorites to play. won and they defended really well.
Mourinho has won 5 final matches in all 5 finals he has in European leagues from Champions League to Europa League and Conference League. He has good tactics and luck to help him achieving that perfect win rate.

Quote
after a long time finally Mourinho was able to present the title for AS Roma, and after that Mourinho firmly stated that he would still stay at AS Roma next season, and yes, I also think if Mourinho stayed longer at AS Roma there would be many more achievements to be made. can be inscribed, because Mourinho is a very qualified coach.
After this long season and taking into consideration how unstable and weak Roma was at beginning of season, Mourinho actually has done great jobs and improved Roma too much. Finally they get this third final in their history and a first title after 60 years in the Europe.

They have written a history for the club as Mourinho said. Deserved or not, let's the community say about it. I know there are opposite opinion in anything so some will agree and others will disagree.

what happened with dash Electrum wallet? I was hold some dash in my dash electrum wallet about a year ago. Recently I can not find the dash electrum wallet in my desktop. Lately I can know that dash electrum is no longer connected. I have the seed phrase. How can I recover my wallet now? Can any expert please help me in this case?
I did not know the DASH Electrum wallet was stopped!

Anyway, I search and get a guide from DASH team on how to recover wallets.
  • Wallet recovery
  • You see they ask users to determine wallet format that you know (I believe). DASH Electrum wallet is no longer available but have you ever checked to recover your wallet with Dash wallet for Android or iOS?
  • Specifically, this one can help you: 12-word phrase on Android

Quote
Backup is a phrase of words

  • If 12 words long, try to restore using Dash Electrum wallet or Dash wallet for Android or iOS, depending what you used to create the backup
  • If 13 words long, try to restore using Dash Electrum wallet
  • If 12, 18 or 24 or 25 words long, try to restore with the hardware wallet you used to create the recovery phrase

Congratulation to Roma, they win the only important Conference League ever, the first.
Mourinho made history for himself and for Roma too. They won their first European glory ever in their history. This final is their third in the Europe but it's the first time they won.

Quote
The future cups will be forgotten ASAP, people will remember only this one.
It's true. The first is the most important and memorable one for any person, any club. Yesterday, Roma made their first big glory in Europe, with Mourinho and some Italian players in their squad. To name, they are Pellegrini (captain), Zaniolo (scored the winning goal), Mancini, Cristante. I hope they will grow more after this glory.

In addition, it is the first title of Italian club in Europe since the last one from Inter Milan and Mourinho!

Users posting "joined" type posts when not required or allowed will be BANNED.

You are free to manage your bounty and Proof of Authentication posts or weekly report posts. In my opinion, you can require bounty hunters to make their first and only one proof of authentication post for their application in your bounty. For weekly report post, I think such one is very annoying and unnecessary.

Quote
Anyone posting info from their bounty application (usernames, addresses, etc.) or anything alongside the lines of "joined X", "looking forward to getting X", "thanks for the opportunity", "filled out form", "signed up for X", "applied", "following / liked / retweeted X" when such data is not required by the bounty / airdrop / giveaway / whatever (e.g. the bounty takes entries on a different website) or the requirement is against the forum's rules (e.g. when a giveaway requires users to post entries for low effort tasks) risk having their account banned. These are extremely low quality posts that generate massive amounts of spam, drowning out any legitimate discussion these threads may posses.

Don't borrow money for investment, that is a good advice.
Don't use your personal savings for investment, that is not right. If you don't borrow money, don't use your personal savings, what is the source of capital to invest ?

The copper membership does not mean that someone is trusted. It's a useful feature to bypass certain limitations, such as that of being able to post images in your threads. But it shouldn't be mistaken as a symbol of a trustworthy forum member. Not even a high rank means you are trustworthy.
Trust and reputation are achievement from what a member has done and contributed after a long time. The Copper membership can be gotten after one or several clicks (payment and activation) so it does not reflect reputation of one member.

Quote
On this forum, not even positive trust means you can be trusted with money or to fulfill the obligations of an agreement. It can mean all that, but not in all cases. We have people with plenty of positive trust, but none of the feedback was earned as a result of trades that involve money or goods.   
Every member in this forum are equally treated by (un)official rules of the forum. The Copper membership won't give you special and softer treatment if you break forum rules.
