501  Economy / Speculation / Majority Admit "Bitcoin is a Failure" but Preach on "BLOCK-CHAIN", its SHIT TOO on: December 07, 2018, 02:45:06 AM
Well everybody now admits that bitcoin sucks dick,

It's price is dropping like a rock,

It's not safe, its not private, its not free to transfer,

But the current bullshit is, but "BLOCK-CHAIN" will live on,

Why is this so? What is special or unique about the block-chain, its just a peer2peer public linked-list data-structure, this is just generic C/C++ code, Satoshi wasn't even a programmer he was just a math guy, and his code shows it,

So all the urban myths of BITCOIN have turned out to be LIES,

Now we only have this one lie left, that block-chain  is the the future,

NO its not, because in its ten years, it hasn't knocked one database company out of biz, and not one commercial product of any significance other than shit-mother bitcoin has exploited this so called technology.

Block-Chain is just another word for linked-list to  programmer, but they had to market it to the suckers like it was new technology, and like everything else the liars never give up, their urban myths.
502  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 07, 2018, 02:39:00 AM

HODLING is for idiots who do not understand the fundamentals of investment, how to make money off of trading and who can't differentiate between the concepts of investment in stocks vs crypto.

I had said back in December last year when people were falling over each other acting all crypto experts and proclaiming cryptos about to take over the world - I had said at that time that it's a speculative bubble that will burst soon and most coins will be left eating dust by mid 2018. I had also said that only a handful of top tier coins will survive with a meaningful utility. Most laughed off at that time and these are same ones who are now crying blood through their eyes, opening up threads after threads screaming "why ... why?" and desperately pleading with people to go and buy more coins as this is the "buyers market"   Grin  Grin

Blockchain technology and crypto coins are two distinctively separate entities. Blockchain does not need coins to sustain itself. There are software companies who have already successfully deployed tools using blockchain technology but without the nonsense of crypto coins.

Crypto coins on the other hand, have no practical use in our daily life other than a novelty. What is the business case for carrying 200 different types of crypto coins to carry out your daily activities when you can simply use existing fiat structure with much less hassles? BTC and few others may get mainstream traction but to think they can replace existing banking, financial and fiat structures is nothing more than a dumb fool's daydreaming.

Well there is an intelligent man in the building.

So I will ask this question, What is the 'successful deployment of bitcoin' name one, or two, or three;

I'm a professional developer, thus I would like to know about this 'success' you speak of, to me block-chain is just peer2peer networking hobby, like torrent; Yes, successful, but in terms of creating real jobs say like Oracle,  much of what I see is VC startup's trying to use block-chain to run the next unicorn, but largely just burning other peoples money. Block-Chain like bitcoin has largely become just another con-artist buzzword to sell 'shit'

IMHO this is another "Urban Myth of Bitcoin, that block-chain is Unique, or valuable"

Yes, we don't need shit-coins, but sadly we have +2100 shit-coins and their mother begat shit, so what that make her? ( Mother btc, father a NSA/CIA ghost name satoshi, but supposed to return like Jesus )

I believe the correct phrase you wanted to use was successful deployment of blockchain. There's no such thing as deployment of bitcoin.

If this is the extent of your understanding about blockchain technology, then you're far from being a professional developer.

What is blockchain - in the simplest term, it provides an underlying infrastructure to record and move information in an indestructible, transparent manner without any external influences trying to manipulate or corrupt the data. This information could be anything, be it financial records, regional weather reports, energy consumption, health records etc. And none of this require use of any crap coins in real world, serious applications.

To think it's just a hobby project shows your naive understanding of a serious technology. Currently there are big names like IBM, FedEx, Qualcomm, Walmart that are implementing information delivery solutions based on BC - you think these multi-billion dollar companies are just playing around with a hobby project? LOL.

Heard of Hyperledger? an open source consortium bringing together big name players from across broad range of industries to develop standards and deploy tools and solutions based on BC.

Naive dweebs hear blockchain and they  instantly think of crypto coins because that is the extent of their understanding of what blockchain technology is capable of. Like I said earlier, 99% of these coins along with their fanciful 100 page whitepapers which are nothing but pile of shit will soon be disappearing and left to eat dust, lot of them already have.



You talk a lot of shit, and dump company names but NAME a real product.

Hell even Taleb and Friedman frequently comment, "BLOCK-CHAIN has not produced one single useful product, other than bitcoin, if you can call that useful'

How in the hell do you think that Block-Chain is something new, there's not a single thing in the code revolutionary, the only novel thing about satoshis white paper was his solution to the double spending problem, a system of +51% trust,

But the actual code, for christs sake name a damn sub-routine call in the code that's revolutionary?

Its just a linked list of blocks of hex code (transactions), not a damn thing new at the time, data-structures are not new, crypto was all NSA public algo's so is the hashing,

This is why high-school kids can clone BTC, because its trivial code if you understand how to read C/C++.

Proof of Offal (Poo)

A shitcoin detector, I suggest you use LSTM/RNN 'text dictionary' and run it on this forum, using HODL as the main vector, 'Proof of Sentiment "SHITCOIN", but I still think that POS mean 'Proof of Shit' (ETH), like in 'no shit, sherlock, its a shit-coin'

Yes, ETH can also be hacked, but its not worth the effort,
504  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Inflection Point POC; "Proof of Crack" - Scanning more profitable than Mining on: December 07, 2018, 12:19:29 AM
I swear people will stop coming up with pointless new proofs one day.  The reason no one has found anything more reliable than Proof of Work is because it's actually quite good.  There's an equilibrium between incentive and responsibility that other proofs have yet to match, let alone surpass.  

Also, this one needs a new acronym.  POC has been in use by "Proof of Capacity", or HDD plotting, since 2014.

Well I like 'Proof of Crack' Capacity is so 2014, like 'Stake' is 1990's progressive political BS.

Work is a waste of resources and its no long profitable, so its game-over, you can talk all you want about how 'beautifu' work was, but going forward it will be seen as a waste of resource ( electrical, computational, ... )

If I throw scrabble letters on the floor, eventually I will generate an intelligent sentence, what of it? That's not much different than running SHA on TX-List, and incrementing a nonce, hoping to find N leading Zero's, what of it?

The FAD of 2017 was the ASIC-PROOF "POW" and BITMAIN replied, You code it, and our hardware will crack it, ... now all alt's that have value in top-20 CAP bitcoin miners, and GPU's are now out of the game for mining, but in the POC world GPU's are the real-deal.

What off it? So we quit mining ZCASH, or ETH and run INTELLIGENT-SCANNING ALGO's to solve DLP, at least that is noble of a fields medal.
505  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Inflection Point POC; "Proof of Crack" - Scanning more profitable than Mining on: December 07, 2018, 12:13:28 AM
The cost of POC is higher than POW because it is less efficient. So, if you can't make a profit with POW, you certainly won't make a profit with POC.

POW is dead, its a losing proposition that's not coming back, right now 'IF' you run an S-9 ( jet engine ) for 2+ years you 'might' get a bitcoin, I think if you intelligently scan for 'lost coins' using intelligent (DLP) methods and NOT dumb LBC methods, then your way ahead scanning.
506  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 07, 2018, 12:11:17 AM
YES Smiley

...

Great Answer, we have found the last man standing Smiley Just like the movies, ... The last man standing, is the real winner

IMHO if you want to be that last, you need to BUY-LOW/SELL-HIGH, but for right now we're heading towards the $1k floor and then will test the $400 floor.

HODL is the last thing you want to do, when you know that your near the top of a parabolic-rise, and its NOT coming back,

The only chance of a future parabolic-rise, would be if BTC goes back down to near $100 and which may or not be a bargain, even then, as its has no intrinsic value.
507  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 06, 2018, 11:46:09 PM
Good day! If you have good alts and with the current situation now, I would suggest hold of course than selling them at a loss. Cryptocurrency is a gamble and we should not put all our money here. Learn how to make profits from small capital. Start to 10%-20% gain to 100% profit which you'll earn usually by patiently waiting. But if course invest and trade only those coins that have potential.

All your alt's are down -10% today, ... I hope you enjoy buying on the dip,... sure way to the poorhouse.

BUY any crypto is a  roll of the dice, 50/50 and the trend is now solid down, but do go all in, Darwin needs fodder
508  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 06, 2018, 11:43:57 PM

509  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 06, 2018, 11:38:50 PM
You need to do your own research before you want to buy bitcoin, there are risks that you need to know before you invest, and yes we ask everyone to hold when the situation got bad because we don't want to cause panic sell and we also don't want to make the situation worse, but if you still insist want to sell then its your choice, dont blame people when you lose money in investing, nobody force you to invest

"We don't Force you, we just tell you what to do"

People on this board are told 24/7/365 to HODL, that everything will recover, that is an absolute lie.
510  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZEN] Horizen: Bringing Privacy To Life [EX ZenCash] on: December 06, 2018, 11:24:28 PM
Horizen has lot a lot of value in the last weeks. Today is 117th at coinmarketcap.
Every day is further from the first Top 100.

A lost of 80% od its value in the last months in not healthy to say at least.

MedaR talks about that Horizen is a system, not a coin, and i agree, but what services or products were developed inside Horizen? i canīt see no more than promises.
Shitty message channel inside wallet does not count as application, to oldfashioned to compete with Whatsupp and Telegram. Need to pay to use, people want free message apps.

I  thought that the fall od Horizen price will be sustained at USD8,00, i was wrong. Some predicted here Horizen at USD 1,00 and i start to believe in that number.


When devīs leave project for not profiting with it anymore?



This project shoiud  look to XYO Network, that has starting to build real world utility with top university lab.



Wow somebody gets it, down 10% right now, ... just keeps going down,

I think the DEV's have left the boat, and turned the over to the marketing fools, its clear these guys know its game-over for the moon-shots,

ZCASH is looking like gold, so the entire z-universe isn't hurting,

but poor zen-cash is becoming a shit-coin that has been abandoned by its own mother

IMHO TEAM-ZEN is taking all 30% of dev-fees on mining and putting on 'marketing', in plain language, the end is near
511  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Holding BTC at this satge is a bad idea? on: December 06, 2018, 11:18:37 PM
BTC is showing weakness and loosing ground day by day I think it is the time for the investors to book profit who are on profit and minimize losses who already suffered a big loss. Can anybody enlighten me on this issue now?

About three days ago I did a survey here,

90% of commenter's agreed that bitcoin is heading to $1k, and will test that floor before heading to $400, now here is where the cognitive dissonance becomes unreal, they all TELL OTHER TO HODL

You can be sure if one our day-traders here is sure BTC is going to $1k, why not sell now at $4k, and then pick up 4X btc in jan/feb post collapse ( I'm assuming the next collapse will come post xmas/new-year, just like this year )

Enlighten you with the TRUTH?

Everybody here knows BTC is going down and hard, but everybody here tells the OTHER GUY TO HODL, which is sociopathic, which means that the majority here want to see other people get hurt.

...

This is a common psychological problem with stocks, people buy with no firm loss in mind on the way down, and worse is the 'noise' of millions of assholes saying "HODL"

The problem is 'drawdown' if you already lost 1/2 your stake, then why not stop the loss, its going down, then you could buy more if your stupid enough to think its going back up,

Problem here I have asked now two weeks and never get an answer "Where in the FUCK is the new sucker money going to come from to reinflate the crypto bubble?" $800 BILLION USD has 'evaporated', almost a Trillion Dollars would have to COME-BACK to bring BTC back

They can't answer the question, because there is no new money coming to BITCOIN.

Lastly, most likely all these are BOTS posting "HODL", just like this OP "SATGE", it seems that the morons love to mis-spell, as a sign of intelligence. Most likely here we have BOTS feeding BOTS, but the subliminal is all the same "HODL" ( whatever the fuck that means, ... ) I guess in court when exchanges are sued they can argue that HODL, didn't really mean buy&hold.
512  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am a loser. My only question now is, how do I tell my wife on: December 06, 2018, 10:52:57 PM
It's not that you are a loser. The fact is that you did a terribly stupid act. A loser, this is when you do everything right, but circumstances that do not depend on you are not in your favor. And I can't even imagine how it was possible to mortgage a house and invest money in a cryptocurrency. This is a very, very risky event. I sympathize with you, but luck has nothing to do with it. You have done a very stupid act, and I hope that cryptocurrency will soon start to grow, so that you stay with your home.

Your like the only BOT here telling the truth? Why is this??

IMHO this story probably not true, but people like these kinds of story's, whether they be true or not, and what's most interesting is NOBODY has came out and said "SELL, RUN"

You got 99% here, that don't even read, they're talking about BTC, and the OP is talking about ETH, which leads me to believe these are just bots triggering on a sad crypto story,

Most likely the exchanges are paying bots to post "HODL" story's, so no matter how bad your loss your still supposed to HODL, cuz they ( exchanges ) told you so,

YES, STUPID crypto's are a dice roll 50/50 even or odd, you bet all on a roll and you lose all, its called 'gamblers ruin', if this story is true, most likely the OP is  a compulsive gambler ( or village idiot ), especially the part about the house being free&clear, these kinds of people (gamblers) are always in debt to their nose, ... me smells much bs in this post.

Village Idiots don't live  in free&clear houses, and if they do, their custodians don't let them hold title so they can be swindled.

Lastly, who tells you ETH will go up? This is a shit-con, and the TECH of ETH sucks, its much worse than bitcoin in terms of inability to scale, and its internal programming language is a dog, ETH is what you expect of a high-school genius to write software and get rich, now that BUTERIN is an adult, maybe he can start from scratch and create ETH-2.0 that has a future? No matter what these professional LIARS tell you high-school kids don't have the experience, and math skills to develop a bomb proof crypto when they're just coming out of diapers, this is a multi-discplinary field, and what BUTERIN did is that he was first, and got a following, but his code ( REV 1.0 ) has no future.
513  Economy / Speculation / BTC will not DIE, People Die; Will you be the Last Man HODLing? on: December 06, 2018, 10:38:19 PM
People go on here about the 'death' of btc, but they ignore suicide, and massive depression that BTC has caused.

Gradually as people are destroyed, they walk away,

It's common when people are ripped off they don't report to the police, they're embarrassed, and they embarrassed on this forum to admit they got fucked by the btc 'community' of common  criminals.

BTC will never die in our lifetimes, because it will have novel collector value, just like 1982 IBM pc's or early apple computers, or Lotus 123 spreadsheet(software)

But the PEOPLE, these people who put their entire life savings down on the table, and followed the MANTRA of "HODL", those people will be dead men walking, they will have died.

Does the community ( CIA, traders, exchange criminals,... ) do they care? Of course not, this is standard sociopath behavior, Darwinian selection.

Like I have said, Every time somebody tells you to "HODL", ask them to send you a check, so you an recover your losses, or ask them to send you some BTC, so you can sell and pay off your DEBT to BITCOIN.
514  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Inflection Point POC; "Proof of Crack" - Scanning more profitable than Mining on: December 06, 2018, 10:18:20 PM
We have POW, POS, now we have POC

POW is a waste of electricity

POS is stealing,  just a new way like ICO's to separate morons from their money, .i.e. a criminal venture highly endorsed by crypto-community.

POC is mathematically challenging, its low cost power entropy, and it will  lead to a stronger crypto-currency.

What has POW begat? NADA, just lies, and broken promises, and economic ruin for 10's of 1,000's and growing daily.

What has POS begat? Bullshit, just snake-oil, in a new container, they knew POW was over so the parasites created a new revenue model

Everything about BITCOIN has been a BIG LIE.

1.) Its NOT  SAFE
2.) Its not secure
3.) Its not private,
4.) It's not 'free' to transfer, or even 'nearly free'
5.) It's not a tool for 'little people', its a trap that big-people use to 'catch' little people
6.) Gov say's its ok for GOV to scan block-chain, but bad for little people to scan block-chain ( so much for open block-chain p2p, .. )
7.) BTC was to be +51% p2p little-people, trust came from lack of monopoly, ... fact is +90% all crypto-miners for a cryptos comes from one chinese company, called 'bitmain', so much for the 'lies of bitcoin'

POW - proof of work, hamster running in cage, count revolutions
POS - proof of stake, send 'founder' lots of money, and you can be better person, 4-legs good, 2-legs bad ( animal farm )
POC - Proof of Crack, hacking bitcoin, Just-Do-It to quote Nike, cuz its fun, and more intellectually interesting than POW or POS

...

To quote the 'joker' on "Batman: The dark knight" ... SO HERE WE GO  ...

I have long predicted that scanning, metal-detecting for lost coin, would be far more profitable than mining, once mining cost more than the cost of power, we're they're today, running an s-9 is a negative profit, anywhere on earth less than 0.05 Usd/kwh, and no where on earth has power this free, so only people who 'steal' electricity, can mine for  a profit now,

That leaves 'scanning'

Now people talk shit about 'ethics', but let's take a step back here, first fools have long promised the world and said "Bitcoin can't be hacked" from the very beginning in 2009, ... all the way to 2014, and how many people warned about 'brain wallets' even on this forum?

The block-chain is public the GOV (CIA) frequently uses the block-chain to track INTL flow's of money, everybody reads the block-chain, and scans the block-chain, the fools of BTC, want it both ways, they want the GOV to track the citizens of the world, but they don't want the little people to have the same power as the GOV.

...

Now to the ethics of hacking, well as long as you don't actually use the funds, I don't think you have anything to worry about, I know there are issues, as some coders have got into "Imperial Problems" ( star-wars talk for the nazis who think they control earth ) about say writing software that hacks the internet. But again, white-hats do it on gov dole, and black-hats are what? anybody that isn't on gov dole, ...

All this is about power,

Which is back to btc, one of the other lies is that btc was to enable the little guy, but how is that if he's not even allowed to read the block-chain, and interpret that data as he wishes?

...

It is what it is, GPU class machines are now cheap, and they can and do hack bitcoin, and this thing will scale,

Now as to btc, let's remember that both ecdsa & sha that were chosen were NSA, and at no time in NSA history have they ever made public an algo that didn't have a backdoor. Let's also remember that in time the backdoor is found, just like recently on the INTEL chip.

I have seen dozens of NSA algo's cracked since the 1970's, this shit is highly redundant, hell I remember the time when if I coded an algo the NSA couldn't crack, they could label it as a 'bomb', seriously its like alice-in-wonderland, the Imperial power can make up words to mean anything they want.

...

Talking about "STEALING"

The biggest criminals on bitcoin are the exchanges, they rob people daily nothing is said

The next biggest criminals are the day-traders, they have destroyed bitcoin,

99% of all btc theft is in your face, but the protectors of BTC ignore it, ...

IMHO the kids who take this stuff to the next level aren't motivated by money, study philosophy study old YOGI texts, or advanced buddhism, "If your really good at something the money will come", those who ONLY WORK for money, always LOSE.
515  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am a loser. My only question now is, how do I tell my wife on: December 06, 2018, 10:10:07 PM
I mortgaged my house to buy $300,000 of ETH at 800.   I dod not tell her.   This house was paid off in full.  Now I cant make the mortgage payments with my job.  I cant even sell the ETH easily because I live in NH.   Should i keep holding?   Tired of making excuses about wherr all the money is going.   I guess I'm what you call a loser.   Thanks everyone.

Ask everybody on this forum that say's "HODL" to send you a $10k check usd-fiat, pay off your mtg, dump you eth, and stay away from the crypto-crimininal enterprise.

ETH is a dog, buterin was a man-child, when he wrote it, and he's already cashed out and done, ETH like all shit-coins, including btc are heading fast towards zero.
516  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Super BrainFlayer 2019 - Enormous Blooms, Gigantic Text-Files, all BTC ADDRESSES on: December 06, 2018, 09:43:50 PM

I have lost interest in this subject after 5+ years of hacking btc, so I'm just looking for students interested in this crap. Sort of like Ed Thorpe teaching MIT kids how to count cards.

Why are you giving the tools to hundreds to hack Bitcoin? If you have lost interest then leave it be. You don't need to give tools to the masses which will be used for malicious purposes. It seems that even you were using it for malicious purposes. Counting cards is a little bit different to what you are proposing to give out. Counting cards actually takes a great deal of skill and shouldn't actually be illegal in Casinos. Its just a way of reducing the odds.

Hacking into other peoples wallets though? That is illegal and shouldn't be distributed. Also considering you are a hacker and you've developed this code. Whats to say you aren't spreading malware through this? Sure it could be checked but the first few hundred people excited that they could earn a quick buck could be compromised.

I would say leave it. You don't need to release this. Brain flayer is out there which can be used for educational reasons if people are interested in our unsecure brain wallets can be and how they can be subject to hacks. We don't need you to release something with the sole purpose of reducing the amount of time that a brain wallet could be compromised.

I think if you bother to read my website www.inflection.top, that all this software has been free since last year to anybody in a 3rd world country, that want's to learn about btc

I think the next gen btc will come from a person who has a DEEP understanding of the failure of bitcoin, and no better way, that studying the bowels of bitcoin, than hacking bitcoin, and learning how to crack it,

In summary 'inflection' is when mining became non-profitable, and scanning became more profitable, IMHO more hw in the future will be deployed to find 'lost coin' than to mine the new, as the mining is now a negative profit


Is it legal to run a computer? Is it legal to add two numbers? 2+2=x, I think there are many control assholes on earth, who have long demanded a license to code, and tax to own a compiler, that a fee be paid if you 'write a program'

don't use this damn word 'wallet' with me, there is no wallet in this scope, were talking raw ECDSA data here that is all gleaned from the public block-chain

I myself don't even own a bitcoin exchange account, I don't care about your US-Dollar, I just care about mathematics

We hack bitcoin because assholes say we can't, that it can't be done, .. blah-blah

I don't care about the price of btc ( eventually going to zero ), I don't care about the people who use btc to 'get rich'

I think crypto-currency's may be useful, if they are truly secure, private,  and safe, ... BITCOIN is NOT.
517  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Super BrainFlayer 2019 - Enormous Blooms, Gigantic Text-Files, all BTC ADDRESSES on: December 06, 2018, 09:36:10 PM
Here's an overview of the new brainflayer-2019, I wrote much of this code in 2017, but essentially rewrote brain-flayer,

first some terms there are keys ( private keys, usually hex, but often in wif (base58) for humans, there addresses which are public-key, which are frequently hashed and converted to base58 where they become the common btc-address, in 'hacking' its best of course to work in the world of pure-hex for everything,  the WIF both addr/priv/pub keys that display is just for user usage. Of course if your going on line you need to generally use WIF format for most online database's to display history address,
What's new

1.) Full support for 64 bit, that includes the bloom filters, before they were limited to 4gb is which  a search space of about 50 million keys, now with 16gb blooms you can search 200M addresses all at once ( remember here the GOAL of brainflayer is to run through possible key-space and look to see if that key's address is 'hot', but 'hot' I mean containing any value in history

2. Extensive work in addition to new hoptions -H and -P, where -H is for halt, and -P is for private key, the -H option tells brainflayer how long to run in terms of input before it re-cycles, this is important for batch file automated running, where you don't want endless running. -P causes BF to output all private-key information this is very important to to build a database of all Address/Private Key 'Pairing'

Remember what we're doing here is building a database to relate all btc addresses used in history of btc, and they're private-key/public-key information.

Also important is the public-key, as often it is ignored, but for advanced hacking I call 'super-van' because essentially I completely rewrote and gutted vanity gen, and gave it a single purpose of GPU hacking, but it needs the data from super-flayer.

...

Sometimes I will write, brainflayer sometimes 'super-flayer', there are many versions, I think this is the 3rd iteration of the BF re-write, all options have been modified

What's import

-b , the bloom filter your using is very important

-c u,c,x ; u & c of course are common in BTC, but 'x' is very important because that is the raw format, and often the 'raw' is the best information

-t sha256 is is most common a default, most of these are no longer used, the keccak does work, it is possible to hack ethereum using this tool, I did it, but there is so little 'coin' worth finding, its really not worth the bother

-x is very important here we tell SBF ( super BF  ) that the input is 'hex', now what this means is that instead of converting 'passwords' we're passing the 'hex' for the passwords directly, this means you can use your own encoding scheme and then let SBF see if that 'key' was ever used to generate an address. This is very important for hacking the new 2048 scheme where you have 8-words from a dictionary, and they're hashed and combined

-k, -n are useful for baby-step, giant step DLP algos where you have a plan to hack a particular private-key ( address pair )

-B batch say's how many private-keys do I process on every cycle default is 4096 which is fine, if you have a 32GB or larger ram system, then go for 32k o as you wish, when using huge arrays it can make the ESDSA algos more efficient but you need massive memory.

-I I think this is too slow, essentially this is just telling SBF to run from nth private key and increment ( can be controlled ) and see if that priv-key matches anything in the bloom filter ( your list of addresses of value ), super-van is much better than this and 5-10x faster than the CPU

Actually using SBF requires that you have built your bloom-filter files, its best to have many blooms, like 100Msatoshi.blm, 10BTC.blm, 1MSatoshi.blm, I think there are 100Million satoshi to a btc, so 0.01btc is 1m-sat, which gets down to almost dust, but I like to go for any address ever used that contained any kind of value, as in fact they do get user again, and over&over,

-w is worth playing around, I think its designed for older pc's with limited memory and power
-m is much the same, when your running SBF for hours like this model is designed, it doesn't matter to pre-compute the tables

Remember the original BF was designed to take a database of passwords, and convert them to hex with SHA, and then to use that as a private key, and look up the address with Ecdsa, and then if an address match is found in the bloom the private-key/address/password is printed to screen that was the original model.

The way that I used SBF is more to generate data, and patterns used for ML ( LSTM/RNN ) where you want to learn about real prior used keys, public-keys, and addresses and look for patterns, cyclic or FFT that can be fed into DLP algo's.

sure  you will always find BTC that has real-value, but IMHO that is not the goal here, this is really about learning the patterns of bitcoin private-key/address pairs

SVM can allow you to catalogue, the different systems to compute private keys, there are many companys that provide 'wallets', and this stuff can be correlated so you start seeing the patterns of different schemes used to generate the private-keys and addresses

Also much can be done with public-keys that are found in the early pre2012 block-chain, and these are the btc of real value on the chain

Well there seems to be a consensus here Smiley

1.) Nobody is Quitting

2.) BITCOIN is heading to $1k

IMHO Jan/Feb will be ugly, but after that if 'new money' can be found, or there is a war, or some justification for moving into crypto then BTC could maybe head back to $6k, or something like that, hell our 'investors' don't care they just flip the bitch,


Anybody making money 'shorting btc' on the futures market here? Or are the shorts too expensive to buy?

Until all these speculators "GO AWAY", quit I  guess is the word, bitcoin will continue to the roller coaster thing, but eventually it needs to stabilize for a long time near common mean-reversion price that the 'professional market' can understand, the current volatility, is just a sign of infantilism, and for a 10 year old to still be acting like a baby, is a bad sign.

...

The conflict in interest here is fascinating, just yesterday the majority of our HODL'rs were telling others to BUY and now they're saying the concur price is going down, so its sounds like there isn't going to be many buyers stepping forward anytime soon, unless our flock here is going to continue to tell others to BUY into a falling market.

Lastly, the consensus here is "Do as I say, NOT as I do", YOU HODL, I wait for the low entry price. This is exactly what the whales do, they SELL and cash out for real fiat, but tell the little fish to "HODL", then the little fish try to do the same thing with the moron fish.  If you go higher up the HODL food-chain you even find more liars, criminals, & ponzi-scammers.

To be part of the BITCOIN CULT you must really live in cognitive dissonance? Right?
519  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is your quit point for Bitcoin price? on: December 04, 2018, 11:41:48 PM
I dont have any plan about quiting, im just waiting for the very lower drop point to fill my empty bags, and it must be great if weak hands and most have panic investors dump their very last bitcoin so the price of it will fits to my price budget. I will be more wiser now than before, and dont want to miss the ride again.

So what is your 'entry target'?

IMHO btc will revert to $1400, but not until next Jan/Feb, like last year last 1/2 of xmas season btc trading seems to slow down, I see a major dump early next year, Then more consolidation above $1k, if that fails then the next floor at $400 will be tested.

That's easy, I think the hard thing for people like you will be at what price do you go in, and at what price do you exit?

BITCOIN is NOT going to go back to $20k any time soon, not for a long-long time, thus say when it goes to $1500 do you buy? Then you HODL and assume it starts climbing back to $6k? Then do you sell or do you HODL and watch it fall back to $1k? Just curious about your 'entry' plan

Note in REAL investing, when people buy into an asset they have a plan, a planned purchase price, and a planned 'take the profit' exit price.

BITCOIN seems to attract this HODL thing that all 'virtual currencys' revert to the moon, and that is insane, cuz the real world don't work that way,

So tell us, oh wise one, now that your wiser, what low entry point are you looking for, and what exit price will you follow up to sell, to take your profit?
520  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is your quit point for Bitcoin price? on: December 04, 2018, 11:08:54 PM
I really wonder at which point BTC investors give up and quit completely.
It depends on each investor. But I believe most of the smart investors are in the market for the long-term so they don't care about the current prices. But even if some give up there'll more investors ready to jump in at the lower prices as it could give them a perfect entry-point to maximize their profits in the long run.

but if the price goes under four digits then I might be reconsidering.
rest assured that the price won't go below 4-digits.

"Smart" & "INVESTING" & BITCOIN are oxymorons

There is nothing smart about buying bitcoin, it was always a 50/50 bet, a roll of the dice, up or down.

A speculative wager is NOT investing.
