I'm sure that someone in the Chinese government will stand to benefit with this cash limits in the future and I don't think it's all abouy corruption since just by the thought alone on having a more digitalized mode of transaction you know it will be much more easier for them to access and know all of our transactions. The government might be going digital because of this where they want to monitor everything and they don't want their citizens to be messing around with regards to their taxes and doing illicit activities at least by going digital they will easily see what's going on in everything they have access too.

It's that, and probably also making it harder to avoid capital controls; due to lack of rule of law, Chinese themselves don't feel like their country is the safest place to store their wealth so a lot of them try to keep as much as they can abroad.

Does anyone know why Bitcoin Wiki mods don’t have mod/staff Position? SomeoneWeird and others

They aren't staff afaik just like Wallet software child-boards' mods, they just have mod privileges in that one section (Bitcoin Wiki).

What for? I would say it's better if the user discovers on their own whose Trust ratings and flags he can trust.
1144  Other / Meta / Re: Are we giving Red trust feedback to easy? on: December 07, 2019, 03:46:16 AM
Negative Trust ratings themselves don't mean as much after the system has been revamped and flags introduced, so some might be giving out red Trust more liberally than previously. You can always distrust these people, or talk with those who have added them on their Trust lists to remove or distrust them. You can also start a relevant topic in Reputation.
1145  Other / Meta / Re: Why not tokenize the forum? on: December 07, 2019, 02:55:44 AM
But mentioning merits (in the context of tokens) was probably a mistake on my part as it seems to be utterly misleading. The forum blockchain in the form of a bitcointalk.org client (like Bitcoin's client) is to be run by the forum members, and its purpose is to extend the forum into the world (as I wrote in the OP). You could do fancy things on it

What sort of fancy things?

As such, it won't affect the forum itself from the inside (read, everything here will remain as it is, merits included). Think of it as bitcointalk.org taking over the world beyond what it has already done (and taken), as a further expansion. The idea, if done right, is certainly worth it. You will remember me when someone implements it elsewhere

No one's stopping you from creating such a token yourself. I just doubt theymos will want to get involved himself in this initiative.
1146  Other / Meta / Re: Why not tokenize the forum? on: December 07, 2019, 12:53:51 AM
The primary motivation behind a tokenization is the transfer of wealth from the clueless to the clueful. Bitcointalk.org/theymos has more than enough bitcoins saved up to sustain the forum for a very long period of time, even if the forum got rid of the few unintrusive ads it displays and the price tanked by 90% it would still last for quite a while.

And all details we can subscribe offline, this is not scam situation. We have company, history payments and more another details.

No one knows you, you have 0 credibility here. You could start by posting some of your price predictions, if they're accurate then I'm sure it will work in your favour when it comes to finding investors.
1148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nearly $10 billion worth of BTC moved in just 15 minutes? on: December 06, 2019, 11:59:33 PM
Could be some sort of fund, not sure why a single person would hold that much at an exchange. Or it belongs to Bittrex themselves.
1149  Other / Meta / Re: Newbie gives a suggestion on: December 06, 2019, 11:56:32 PM
A warning is visible to either everyone or to most users (including visitors who aren't logged in) if the newbie account's gets flagged. Previously a negative Trust rating from a DT member was enough, now there are more steps so less people do it. I think I'll have to start doing it then.
1150  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Are You Afraid of KYC? on: December 06, 2019, 11:52:33 PM
What's there to be enjoyable with wasting time on such useless activities? Think of all the people who can't even pass KYC because they're from a 'bad' country.
1151  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: December 06, 2019, 11:44:14 PM
Different browser, incognito mode - chipmixer.me is also the first result I get. That's not good, there are probably a lot more victims who won't even bother to post anywhere. Hopefully namecheap suspends their domain (email abuse@namecheap.com).
1152  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: new to bitcoin, how do i buy? on: December 06, 2019, 10:53:54 PM
Depends where you're from / which countries you're "connected" to (have passports, bank accounts, etc.).

This site can provide a lot of suggestions where to buy bitcoins from: https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/
1153  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: People’s Bank of China Announces Test Program to Limit Cash Transactions on: December 06, 2019, 10:51:08 PM
No one who's given it a few seconds of thought should agree with it but it looks like hundreds of millions of Chinese folks have voluntarily gone cashless so won't care. I wonder if these provinces are rural or urban. If rural that could be a major pain.

They're introducing transaction limits, not bans on cash altogether, and it means there's just more paperwork if someone has to go over the limit. A lot of people start using wechat and alipay voluntarily anyway out of convenience (although I'm sure there's some behind the scenes influence from the Chinese government themselves to push people into using these apps).
1154  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Why has not any government stopped Bitcoin? on: December 06, 2019, 10:01:38 PM
Bitcoin still not become competitor for government and there are not their people have made a loss by bitcoin and why government still legal using bitcoin only for investing assets, when bitcoin have make something terrible in one country I think government brave for banned using bitcoin as investing but if bitcoin keep giving positive side maybe government will make bitcoin become legal currency payment.

If it becomes big enough to become a competitor to a major government's fiat currencies, then it will already be too late to 'ban' it.

1155  Local / Polski / Re: Ostatnie transfery na 1,210,000 BTC on: December 06, 2019, 09:37:00 PM
Jak wiadomo najwięcej Bitcoin jest w rękach:

1. Satoshi Nakamoto - ma ponad 1,1 miliona bitcoinów.

Nie "wiadomo", przypuszcza się.

2. Bułgarskie organy ścigania - przeprowadziły masowe naloty na zorganizowane podmioty przestępcze, co doprowadziło do zajęcia ponad 213 519 bitcoinów. Do czerwca ubiegłego roku,
    wartość BTC będących w posiadaniu władz bułgarskich wynosiła około 1,2 miliarda USD.

Nie spotkałem się jeszcze z żadnym wiarygodnym źródłem co do tej wielokrotnie powtarzanej liczby.

3. Federalne Biuro Śledcze - również jest jednym z najbogatszych posiadaczy bitcoinów na świecie. Od 2013 r. Biuro aktywnie likwiduje przestępczość zorganizowaną i przejmuje zasoby
    cyfrowe. Przykładowo, we wrześniu 2013 roku FBI zlikwidowało Silk Road. Tylko w tamtym czasie organizacja przejęła ponad 144 000 bitcoinów.

Sprzedali parę lat temu. Najpierw prawie 30k BTC w 2014, potem 144k BTC w 2015. Ogłoszenie prasowe wydali w 2017.

https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/acting-manhattan-us-attorney-announces-forfeiture-48-million-sale-silk-road-bitcoins

4. Cameron i Tyler Winklevoss - uważa się, że bliźniacy są obecnie właścicielami blisko 1% wszystkich bitcoinów, które aktualnie znajdują się w obiegu. Łączna wartość netto bliźniaków
    wynosi około 400 milionów USD.

Z tego co pamiętam było to 120k BTC, 1% wszystkich monet w obiegu to było parę lat temu. $900M przy obecnym kursie.

1156  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Why don't we have bitcoin smart contract? on: December 06, 2019, 08:59:41 PM
I remember there was one more language (besides Simpicity and Bitcoin script) for writing Bitcoin smart contracts. They often referred to it when Solidity came. Can't for the life of me recall the name or even find it anywhere but it was some sort of 3-letter acronym. Does anyone know?

Maybe Miniscript is what you're thinking about?

http://bitcoin.sipa.be/miniscript/

Or OTX (Open Transactions)

https://github.com/FellowTraveler/opentxs

Or colored coins (that one didn't pan out, IIRC).
1157  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Hardware Wallet Hacked? on: December 06, 2019, 08:27:42 PM
Can hardware wallets like Ledger Nano be hacked and their coins stolen?
It's not easy to hack a hardware wallet, unless of course you give your keys to someone.

If someone gains physical access to your hardware wallet, I also wouldn't be so sure... at least set up a reasonably long/complex passphrase if you're using Trezor for bigger amounts of money and are taking it into account that someone could gain physical access to it.
1158  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Mobile hardware wallets - are they really worth the attention ? on: December 05, 2019, 05:38:57 PM
Has anyone competent performed a security audit of one of these mobile hardware wallets? And to what extent are they open source?
1159  Other / Meta / Re: Trust feedback should be written in English. A must for DTs. on: December 05, 2019, 06:58:45 AM
Posts in Local boards count in the millions, and one of the reasons people posts there is because they don't feel their English is good enough to post on the main forum or worse. So you can't expect they'll be posting their Trust ratings in English. If it's in their own language then even if a dictionary/google translate/etc fails to do its job, a native speaker can still understand what the comments say. But if Google Translate (or other tool they'd use if they were to be forced to leave Trust feedback in English) mistranslates the comment then everyone will be left confused.
1160  Other / Meta / Re: DefaultTrust changes on: December 05, 2019, 04:34:39 AM
Is it possible to remain on DT1 when you're just sitting around quietly? And also would it be possibe to be on DT2 even if you're removed from DT1?...

If more than 100 users are eligible for DT1, it's not guaranteed you'll always be in DT1, but unless the numbers of eligible users increase significantly, you should be in DT1 most of the time as long as you fulfill the eligibility criteria.

And also would it be possibe to be on DT2 even if you're removed from DT1?...

Yes, it's possible.
