Wow. The butthurt is strong with this clown. Cheesy

Butthurt how? I'm smart enough to see whats coming and have got out.
If you don't want people to think your butthurt, stop acting butthurt. It's very simple really.

lol how's your butthurt today? $50 down in 10 days.

Well if the price dropped to single digits I'd might consider selling, for a very tidy profit indeed. Cheesy

Sorry to burst you bubble son. No butthurt here. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

First stage of loss is denial.
Just look at all these bag holders still trying to plug their sinking ship.
Decentralized hey?
You mean centralised by the Farms.
Nobody is stupid enough to buy this crap anymore.
Daily market cap shrinking tells the real truth here.

Bye bye virtual millionaires! Or from the BTC camp its buy buy stupid public, its still Q1 in our world.

I run a full node 24/7, but having problems with my ISP keeps changing my external IP address. This happens at random, perhaps every few days, other times twice a day.

This upsets the node, causing connections to drop to 8. Only way is to restart daemon. Then I'm normally connected to 40 - 50 peers.
Until they change my IP again.

Hey man thAnks for the video but by reading your posts im sure im more familiar about bitcoins than you.
Started trading in 2009. What makes you so confident that btc is a winner over fiat?
Cant even get a bigmac with btc right now

Sound interesting. Who was you trading with?
1727  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So the early miners has the most bitcoins? on: July 20, 2014, 06:39:07 PM
All the bitcoins that we purchase with cash, eventually the winner (for nowdays at least) will be early miners

I don't understand what you mean by 'winner'?

winning all the fiat cash.

Surely the winner is the one who just dumped some dirty fiat in exchange for a decent currency.

The correct way is to install a fresh OS (such as Linux) onto a drive, install Bitcoin armory, backup wallet at multiple places (offline places of course.) Once backed up, coins can be transfered to wallet. Optionally, you can then properly erase the drive leaving only the backups.

*At no point was the machine connected to the internet.*

This is a cold offline wallet.
1730  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My wallet is stolen! (10 BTC) on: July 20, 2014, 04:28:43 PM
what the fuck just happened. I thought cold wallets are safe..

They are. This wasn't a cold wallet.
1731  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My wallet is stolen! (10 BTC) on: July 19, 2014, 02:35:53 PM
It is not an offline wallet (cold storage) if it was created on a computer connected to the internet.
Well that is rather easy to hack then, isn't it.
I just ask myself how do they find these individuals holding a decent sum of coins.

My guess is people who are running bitcoin nodes are targeted. A list of current nodes is trivial to obtain. It makes sense that the probability is greater that these machines could contain coins rather than just selecting a machine at random.

This and like Gavin said recently, you should assume your IP is associated your transactions. If this is the case then anyone with a significant amount of coins could be targeted when they broadcast transactions to the network with an address that holds alot of coins.

Luckily it trivial to hide your IP during transmission of a transaction. Simply go here using TOR : https://blockchain.info/pushtx and post the hex of your signed transaction.

That is actually really cool, I did not know you could just paste a signed TX into Blockchain.info. Thank-you for sharing this URL!

Yes. They then just transmit it using their node.

Before ever making a cold storage wallet, scan your pc thoroughly, use up2date antivirus, and also scan with Hitman Pro after that.

Or just use an Linux OS, no need to mess about with any of that nonsense.

PHD Candidate Bitcoin researcher had ~9000 BTC stolen while he was using Linux. CDecker on this forum. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=49

Your meant to keep the machine offline. Looks like he had it online, which is asking for trouble using any OS.

so... how did the hacker find said link? where did he get it from?

That is a million $ question, which still seems to be unanswered.

My assumptions, also, as seen from the second thread of this incident.
hacker was someone Klee knew personally. I read it was a short brunette in her 30s.
So, it seems that the person, or a group of persons, knew what klee held, and in a personal meet, planted a trojan on Klee's system.

If all this is true, than that is a SEVERE breach of trust. pathetic.

So it was internal and someone klee knew
That explains their worry about detection
Keep munching popcorn

If this is true it also highlights another lesson for everyone.
You should always keep quiet about what you've got in life, because the "have nots" will always want what the "haves" have got.
Obviously this isn't always possible, such as the house you live in or the car you drive. But you get where I'm going.

Nobody knows how many bitcoins I have. NOBODY. There's no reason for them to know.
1737  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My wallet is stolen! (10 BTC) on: July 18, 2014, 02:09:03 PM
There have been lots of stolen coins these days i can see a thread created by klee which he lost about 1700BTC and thats more than 50x to yours and right now he still haven't got it back.

Klee's wallet wasn't offline or secure.

The "law" is comprised of arbitrary scribbles of men who think they have the right to tell YOU what is right and what is wrong.  Don't fall into the trap of accepting what politicians say as absolute truth.  Their "law" is flawed.  If you're not hurting anyone, you're not committing a crime.

This may well be true, unfortunately in the real world just because you may disagree with a law, certainly does not invalidate it. If you break the laws of the land, and it is serious enough, you get sent to prison.

I still feel, we need to support Klee in every way we can, because WE might be the next victim, and then we will need the same support from this community.

I'm finding it difficult to muster up sympathy on this one. Klee wasn't tricked or scammed, he left the gold on the windowsill, in plain view, window wide open for anyone to take. Which they did.

That's like saying that a girl that wears a dress invites rapists, so its not the rapist's fault if they rape her. It's insane...

Klee didn't TWEET out his private key, he kept it secure in a dropbox that only he had a password to...Not the best security practice but not worthy of being stolen from...

No I never suggested theft was justified at all. Theft is theft, nobody is disputing that.

I find it disturbing the words 'dropbox' and 'secure' are being used in the same sentence.
