Depending on why you need tBTC, regtest mode will cover almost all things you need to test software you created. If you're not sure how to do it, you can check this guide https://bisq.network/blog/how-to-set-up-bitcoin-regtest/ (i find this guide is most straightforward about using regtest mode). |

Newbies build/work towards your own prediction/speculation by using instruments -news/information/questions-
And make sure you use multiple source to prevent bias or fake information, i've seen many people only rely from 1 source and turned out the source is biased on specific topic. |

AFAIK there's no fork and my Bitcoin Core are able to sync without any problem. Did you run any command that might break Bitcoin Core such as : invalidateblock 00000000000000000007b86426ffa671d5f52a0cf22eb1a03a73c114695983c8
Edit : if you do, try to run command shown by @ranochigo |

If someone don't know, "Pay to Many" is also a good option for sending change to personally selected own address/es which can be chosen from "coin" menu. Just write into the relevant field that address and instead of sum put down the exclamation mark to ensure the rest of the sum would go to that address. One may even split the change between a few addresses. Will that trick (in someextend) the "surveillance" software?
The good thing is Electrum have multiple change address feature (which is disabled by default), so you don't need to do it manually with "Pay to Many". I doubt it can fool latest surveillance software though. |

1 private key create 2 public key (compressed and uncompressed), which creates 5 type of addresses (P2PK, P2PKH, P2SH, P2WPKH & P2WSH). Take note that P2PK technically is just your public key.
However, there are various limitation which prevent specific public key/address combination, but i can't remember it.

Hey so I figured it out. For some reason the memory was the bottleneck. I stopped the vm and upped the mem to 30 from 4 (GBs) and restarted and now its running like a champ. Wanted you to know so you let others know. Thanks so much for your help.
30 GB seems overkill, unless you configure dbcache to use most of your RAM. If you're not sure how to do it, you could either : 1. Add -dbcache=N (N is total of RAM used in MB) if you run Bitcoin Core from Terminal. ./bitcoin-qt -dbcache=20000
2. Open bitcoin.conf (located on folder where you store blockchain) and add dbcache=N on new line. If bitcoin.conf isn't exist, all you need to do is create new .txt file and rename it as bitcoin.conf. |

Not surprised, even when they announce their service for first time, there are some fishy things that @_DarkStar and myself found out. P.S. maybe this thread should be moved to Scam Accusations |

Unless theymos gonna make or use AI which can detect whether a message is written by AI/not, there's nothing much we could do aside from reporting posts that doesn't make sense.
There's simpler & good horrible solution for this problem, which forcing user to solve CAPTCHA every time he made/edit message.

3. The primary aim of MS is to merit posts that are worth giving merit and hasn't recieved enough, is there an additional/secondary aim?
No, but merit sources have freedom to achieve their own aim (while remain merit underappreciated post/thread), such as focusing post/thread on specific local boards. Many merit source openly says they'll focus on specific local boards, which is fine. Sending 50 for a single post - I will never believe there is no shady actions behind this.
I guess theymos is doing shady action since he sent 50 merits for many 10th anniversary art contest ( 1, 2, 3 & many more) and even technical research ( Anonymous Atomic Swaps Using Homomorphic Hashing)  |

It'll be used as censorship tools or excuse to scam honest users who wants to have privacy. There's another problem such as innocent user who didn't know that his Bitcoin is "tainted", even though he earned it legally.

Since this forum uses CloudFlare to prevent DDoS, i think OP's question also applies to CloudFlare as well.

as for status, sometimes BIPs aren't accepted by the community or remain unused so they never reach "final" even if a long time has passed.
And not all BIPs are good BIP or relevant with today's condition. |

there was one case which may be categorized as a roll back but it was mostly a group of nodes that went on an invalid chain. it happened in early years and it is referred to as the "overflow bug" where due to a bug a miner created a bigger than allowed number of new coins which made its block invalid and other miners built on top of that invalid block and created an invalid chain which had to be discarded. in my personal opinion this can't be categorized as a "roll back" because those blocks were invalid. Further update: Binance CEO Zhao said the company will not pursue a rollback of the bitcoin blockchain. this is a lie that they spread to cover their embarrassment. they didn't stop pursuing rollback! they faced the reality that is is not possible to do so and every miner they tried to bribe laughed at their proposal. You forget rollback when bitcoin-qt 0.8 is released, which turns out isn't backward compatible with other full node client. IIRC some miners/pools kind enough to agree with the rollback to bitcoin-qt 0.7 knowing they'd lose some Bitcoin they mined with bitcoin-qt 0.8 See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152030.0 |

You don't mention how do you solve "The Oracle Problem" in smart contract. If you want to help farmer, there are better ways such as enforcing laws for fair prices and removing middleman as much as possible.

Bitcoin can have "DIY smart contracts" (no code, no forks, no extra software) as in this example. While you shared a bit interesting blog post, it doesn't utilize smart contract, let alone bitcoin script. If you're looking for example, you should check Rootstock instead, even though the smart contract happens on side chain. |

Yes, it's possible. In fact, there are many people who fell for such scam tactics.
But what they actually they do are modifying unencrypted part of the wallet.dat to show address which doesn't have it's private key pair.

p.s. Coinomi is closed-source, but who is really going to review their code?
anybody who cares a tiny bit about their security and privacy. any of the open source and semi-popular to popular wallets that you check have gotten active contributions from at least a couple of dozen developers and have been reviewed by a lot more whether a complete review or partial. for example i myself have one through the code of bitcoin core and electrum both of which i have used and trust. meanwhile nobody has any clue what Coinomi does and that is a serious danger to your security and privacy both. Additionally, 1. You can choose to trust other people (who's more likely being honest/neutral) who have reviewed the source code if you can't do it yourself 2. Anyone can hire professional to audit source code of the wallet. Monero community often do this and the result is available publicly even though they usually audit their cryptocurrency protocol / implementation rather than wallet source code. meanwhile nobody has any clue what Coinomi does and that is a serious danger to your security and privacy both.
Serious danger? Your privacy is pretty much nonexistent when you closed-source wallet, since you're connected to their server and it's likely they log everything (where there's no way to prove it's true or false). |

From more technical side, some reason the community opposes smart contract on Bitcoin are :
1. High complexity, which could leads to bugs
2. Smart contract is only as smart as the creator
3. Increase node burden to store and verify the smart contract
Regarding 1, according to Satoshi, it wouldn't be too difficult... 2 and 3 are totally understandable. Looking at ETH and various bugs related with smart contact, i would say otherwise. |

I want the steps on a video with explaining in order to know how can i run it i am not a programmer to understand commands and visual studio etc. even the screenshot on the first page i didn't understand anything from it.
It's not as complicated as you think and you don't have to be a programmer to be able to run the BitCrack. Basically what you need to do are : 1. Download BitCrack from https://github.com/brichard19/BitCrack/releases. If you're not sure, just download clBitCrack.exe2. Open application called "Command Prompt" and move to directory path where clBitCrack.exe is located 3. Type clBitCrack.exe on "Command Prompt" If you never heard or don't know how to use "Command Prompt", please read this guide https://techtipvault.com/windows/command-prompt-windows-10-cmd-guide/P.S. i can't make screenshot since i don't use Windows OS |
