Unlikely. Normal wallets can't send transactions under the dust limit (1 sat), and 1 sat/vbyte isn't enough to get it confirmed. The receiving address format reminds me of Blockchair's interpretation of OP_RETURN, but those can't send funds anymore. That makes me thing it's Taproot-related, but I don't know the details.

After seeing this topic (which points to transaction 1 and transaction 2), I am now curious what the difference is. This looks like someone with mining-access playing around (1 sat/vbyte and 0 sat/vbyte), but I don't know why.

If anyone wants to play with it without running Bitcoin Core: download mempool.hex. If there's demand, I can do regular updates. I created this dump a few minutes ago from my pruned Bitcoin Core.

And roughtly the same amount as sent by Merit sources can "trickle down" to other users to send.

In the past 8 weeks, 43568 sMerit was sent:

That translates to about 23600 sMerit per month. I don't know how many of those came from Merit sources, but it's far from the maximum.

Of course, there's also this:
Either way, Merit isn't scarce. Good posts are. Prove me wrong!

I think this applies:

@OP: In your Bitcointalk Profile > Personal Message Options, you can allow Newbies to send you PMs.

A (partial) solution would be to require moving all coins to a new encryption long before Bitcoin is at risk, and burning anything else after a certain amount of time. But it goes against everything Bitcoin stands for.

Do you have a source for this? I can think of many more reasons to delay their CBDC plans, and I can also think of many more worries concerning the rest of the banking system than just CBDC.

Once more than one actor has access to enough computing power to steal Bitcoins, Bitcoin becomes worthless to them (and anyone else). Let's say someone steals 10,000 Bitcoins using quantum computing. Then he wants to use it, and makes a transaction. Now someone else steals the Bitcoins, after which the process repeats itself. This won't lead to stolen Bitcoins, it will destroy Bitcoin.
Unless, of course, the protocol gets an update long before this scenario becomes a reality (in the distant future).

They're not It's something Blockchair made up:

Actually, it's a "vouch" of not getting caught in any of the crimes they may or may not have committed. That's a subtle difference.

Is this what you're looking for?

Then why do you need a 15 LTC loan? If you could do what you claim you can, you wouldn't need a loan. Tell me: how much money did you lose at Stake while wagering $99,950,265.16?

I've seen it all, and it never ends with laughs.

It sounds like you're selling Snake oil.

I'm Dutch, and Kraken works for me. Germany is close enough so I expect it to be allowed.

That's cute. You earned $134,648 the day before you needed a loan?

Basic knowledge about casinos should be that their conditions are never "favourable" to the player. The entire system is designed to make the casino rich.

This is just an addicted gambler preying on the greed of gullible people.

"Investors" in a "business" that's designed to make you lose money? Lol.
This looks like a classic Martingale: OP will make profit until it fails, and in that case someone else's money takes the hit. If his "system" would work, he'd be rich enough to gamble with his own money.

I don't know the site. Maybe this German topic helps you.

Let's read the descriptions:
I have a hard time matching both descriptions to one person.

You're asking the wrong question.
Dollar (USD) is going down forever? The answer is yes. Which, by deduction, means Bitcoin is going up forever.

This started long before you joined, see my reputation thread. But, despite the seemingly overwhelming evidence, KYC verified I'm human.

This one is amazingly close to $1000:
At #38, it's in the bottom 10%.

Meanwhile, the only one that really matters:

It sounds like you're looking for my notification bot: no email, no Telegram, Tor friendly, no add-ons, no browser-integration, just a static web page that gets updated every 6 minutes.

I'l be impressed if they can get Bitcointalk notifications on said pregnancy test

I looked it up: he swapped the screen and controller, and added a keyboard. That's not playing Doom on a pregnancy test, that's installing a small Doom device inside a pregnancy test. With the same hardware you could claim you installed Doom on a lighter or a piece of wood.
