At the end of the day, I can't make you change the feedback. It's your opinion and that's fine. However, can you answer for me why my pre-hack signature is not enough?

Thanks.

Most of those addresses were in an old blockchain wallet that I no longer have. I'll double check later to see if I can provide a signature, but that post IS from before the hack so I'm not sure what the issue is. Unless you believe my account was hacked twice and thus has been accessed by three different people, that post verifies that I am the legitimate owner.

I understand you are just being cautious, but I'm not quite sure why there seems to be some animosity. You can leave the negative trust if you wish. I just thought I'd ask.

EDIT: If you look at your screenshot, you entered the signature in the message box and the message in the signature box. That's why you can't verify it.


I was unaware of the hack until visiting the forum this year. I had not checked in during that time. I no longer have his signature (and obviously don't have the address he was getting payment at). The dates my account was hacked are in my signature (approx, based on last legitimate

I am able to verify my signature from Razick is my account https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1028029.0 in Bitcoin Armory. Could you please try a different client to verify? Also note that for some reason, and I am sure I am doing something wrong, I cannot generate a valid signature block in the format you've requested. I'm using a bare QT signature. I'll post it in the same format as my post from 2015.

Note that the other users and the recovery team were able to verify my signature.

Here's a new one:

"I Razick am the sole owner of the address 1vayZZw4U1pKQic2FjZ7aYg8e1qDSNxCC. Today's date is 6/9/2020."

Signature: HEstMca7FsXTTzIj8xgQmKA2dW4gtMGXb9+6iAizcDRwk8ytf+DCZUXWjdHIR1WNl5CIOFRwzaTDvpWJ2x/Doz4=

Exclude quotes to verify message. Bare Signature (QT Compatible).

I was unaware of the hack until I visited the forum this year. I have removed the signature and replaced it with a warning about the dates the account was hacked. I would remove those posts, but clearly the hacker was in the business of quantity over quality. I don't have time at the moment to delete them, and some of them I am unable to delete due to the forums they were posted in. I'll post another signature as requested.

I don't stand by everything I said in the past. Like anyone who cares about the truth, my opinions, particularly political, have changed and evolved over time.

I was recently curious about how Bitcoin was doing because I don't really follow it, and saw someone scamming people under my account. That's my concern and why I recovered my account. I do apologize for the accidental spamming. I only intended to send one message but I was messaging multiple users and must have gotten you twice by mistake.

I have one Armory wallet and no, I unfortunately don't have PGP or access to those 10,000 addresses which I generated for.... well, I have no clue why. I think perhaps I was considering using the addresses for a web development project which would have used a new address for each transaction (obviously not the right way to do this). I still have my Rasperry Pi, but haven't used it in years.

I used the 1vay address for recovery because it's the one I signed years ago. If you read the hacker's posts, they are clearly a change in tone.

Yes, I did try my hand at a few failed businesses/hobbies, including TxT Paintball (paintball, not guns and ammo), fuel cards (which failed due to the site banning me due to fraud suspicious, which is understandable since I was buying large cards to send to other people's addresses. Note that I did fully refund the 1 person that sent money.

If you read the post about double spending, you'll see the attempted double spend was when I was trying to determine how to over-wright a stuck transaction (to get it to go to the person I originally sent it to). It eventually went through, and then the same seller scammed me on a subsequent transaction. I was not trying to commit fraud.

I have never hacked or attempted to hack anyone without their authorization. And I don't have the skills to do so successfully in most cases even if I wanted to. Finally, yes, I did earn $10,000 and sometimes less as a fast food worker during college. Is that so unique? I'm in the financial industry and earn a decent living now if that matters.

I'm not sure what your concern is, but obviously you don't buy my story. That's fine. Feel free to leave the negative trust if you if you like.

Account recovered, thanks all!

I thought its dominance was 70%. Realistically, it's possible that more people have Bitcoins on exchanges then we realize. Anyway it's mathematically inevitable that altcoins will take some of that dominance. It's like saying back in 1998 cougar would only be the only search engine. Actually, that's a bad example because Google pretty much is the only search engine. Baby Bitcoin will still be this dominant in 20 years.

Your comment makes absolutely no sense. What are you even trying to say? It sounds like you just typed random words because OP set space and NASA in the title. well maybe I'm wrong maybe English as your third language or second language. No offense.

You should use localbitcoins. Even in third world countries, you can use localbitcoins to buy Bitcoin from people near you. All you have to do is follow the instructions for whichever method you choose to buy Bitcoin, and it's a very safe process because localbitcoins escrows it so that the seller can not just run away with your money. Hope this helps.

the best way that you can cash out Bitcoin anonymously is if there is a Bitcoin ATM in your local area which doesn't require identification to buy and sell Bitcoin. If you buy and sell Bitcoin for cash, and ID is in required, then it is for all intents and purposes, anonymous.

it's only natural that the number of Bitcoin ATMs will multiply each year, because only a small fraction of the world population even knows about Bitcoin and still to this day. There for businesses and investors around the world are going to jump on this opportunity to get into the Bitcoin space.

You can only make so many gains trading before you will end up losing. There isn't any exchange which you can make unlimited trades. They only have so much Fiat available to play with. In terms of exponential, well that's just completely unrealistic dot-dot-dot because you can expect to always profit, let alone make exponential gains.

I don't know if it's a business but technically crypto trading is relevant to the government. If you haven't registered a business, then it is not considered as a business, but it is still considered as income if you profit from trades,.and you need to report it to your government.

Blockchain has already produced a massive boost in our economy, and all signs show that it will continue doing so. then technology is revolutionary and is helping people all around the world to come out of poverty.

Bitcoin can boost the country's economy or it can break a country's economy, depending on how they manage their investment. If they try trading it or don't take care of it then they could lose a fortune. Alternatively, they could get hacked by different foreign nation and lose their investment money, which could cripple their economy.

Well it's a good idea for any economy to hold cryptocurrency because the upside is much greater than the minimal risk that comes with investing in it. Hopefully it works out for Venezuela and their current economic nightmare changes for the better!

The downtrend is across the entire crypto industry. You need to look at the big picture instead of just focussing on aetherium or any other single cryptocurrency. If you look at all the cryptocurrencies in the past month, will actually the past few days they have dipped a lot. For example, Bitcoin was worth $10,000 a few days ago, and now is worth only 8,000.

day trading is risky business bro. I don't know about that whole leveraging to accumulate small amounts of crypto at a time because playing the large market swings has worked out better for me and I think it's better overall more people would agree that it's easier making crypto this way then day trading.

Doesn't the hash rate affect the price because the more miners the higher the price generally of a coin, and the last miners who focus on a coin then the price goes down. The drop in hashrate is probably a negative sign for the price in the short term.

in my country we have Bitcoin ATMs and they definitely help increase adoption because people see them in stores and it spreads weariness of Bitcoin at the very least, but also many people use them to buy their first Bitcoin or even invest in more cryptocurrencies if they so choose, and they don't have to trust random people online.
