Hell, that is one hell of a stupid move. Why would they send private keys unencrypted anywhere? there are already some people complaining about lost funds. I don't question that this google spell check is a stupid move, but I don't understand how this should leak the private key? the google spell check is (hopefully) a https requests, which is encrypted. and google will not leak the keys for sure. so what did leak the keys? he claims that someone at Google extract and used the passphrase after HTTPS decryption and not in between as I understand it. RecapTo recap the events for further investigation: - My first passphrase attempt was sent to googleapis.com through Coinomi wallet was on 14th February 2019
- Google’s employee or whoever has control over the data that are sent to googleapis.com processed the data that had my passphrase and that was between 14th and 19th February 2019
- My crypto assets were stolen on 19th February 2019 starting around 3:30 am UTC and the transactions continued for 15 minutes. At the end 90% of the assets were gone and remaining assets were only left because these assets were supported by Exodus wallet but NOT Coinomi wallet (what a coincidence you say!)
Please note that I took all the security precaution to keep my passphrase and wallet safe. I have a separate isolated virtual machine for it with Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware and firewall installed. I also had other wallets on the same virtual machine for years. Nothing was stolen except for the wallet which I recently used my passphrase in, which is Coinomi wallet! That would be a very bad publicity for google if this is true. It's also possible that the anti-virus/anti-malware software is the cause of this leak. they "open" encrypted https requests and look inside to search for possible threats. Since when is google a bank? Since when it's a good idea to store your private keys in a cloud? How is this a bad publicity for google and not the incompetent wallet? |

Yep, working as designed. |

Africa (the unbanked) is where we really need to push adoption. I guess the issue is not having the internet (wifi or 4G). Imagine if even 1 in 1000 people had a mobile phone & a BTC wallet or something. Need solid lightning set up in place before true adoption, otherwise it'll be killed off again once someone decides to bump the fees to $10+ again |

bcash just dropped to 6th place on CMC. A bit lower and it'll go bellow litecoin. Feels like someone liquidating a ton of BTC for cash, CW has been kinda quiet lately could he be filling up for the final push  |

Did anything happen?
Heard Bitcoin just died  |

 Credit where it is due that narcissistic psychopath chose a great timing for his evil plan. And the only ones that could do some powerful move to fucking send him back to his cave are not doing anything yet. They need to dump their BTC to support their shitcoins, so why cash them out at $20k per their coin. Let them dump |

Huh and bcash SV is up 16% i wonder what's going on...
CSW actually might be the best thing to BTC in last year. He's managing to get himself and bcash crew out of BTC! Pull that bandaid off!
Both sides have savings in BTC so now it's a race of who can sell first for top dollar to prop up their alts. The sell off will be rushed, but so will be the recovery

It is interesting how close to a BTC difficulty change the BCH fork and hash battle is occurring however. Provocative.
Yes. What a coincidence. Go figure. Even more provocative - ABC seems to be kept alive due to a black_hat/white_knight act of Roger. He has redirected 4 EHash of power on the Bitcoin.com pool from BTC to BCH. Spicy! Wait, are you trying to tell me that CSW's whole plan relied on Roger sitting by idly looking at his pool mining BTC while all of his work and savings in Bcash are destroyed because there wasn't enough hash to support Bcash? Of course not, silly. I'm merely forwarding actual information not yet entered into discourse here. What is _your_ contribution? Though an autocratic redirection of BTC pool power without assent of all participants is kind of interesting in its own right.More info in the Bitcoin Cash thread. The "small" hashrate redirected by ANTMINER is probably their own. Bitcoin.com can redirect the hashrate at will as stated on its TOS AND also clearly publicly announced its intention to do so. We could try to argue about the details, the ethics or whatever... but in the end he (Ver?) did it because he CAN. Everything went as (probably) expected and there were no surprises... obvious suspected bluffs from Wright side became factual bluffs. Only a blind wouldn't expect that. In other breaking news, the sun has came up from the east today and appears to be settling in the west, more details at your 10o'clock news hosted by jbreher! Anyone can show some numbers on how much it's costing CSW per day to keep that hash power on SV chain? As a ballpark figure straight from my ass (could be as much as one order of magnitude off) I would say around $1 million a day. Not much..... And it is probably coming from Calvin's pocket mostly not CSW. Unlike CSW, Calvin already left the door open to join the largest chain. The most probable outcome is that he will announce defeat in the next hours/days if SV keeps dropping in price and become economically unsustainable for him. I'm getting a bit less than that. Before the fork bcash was trading at ~$450 so mining 1800 bch/day puts it at around $810k, so to 51% would require $405k, but looks like the hash rate doubled since they started the race, so that puts him back at around $810k/day. Or to go about it the different way whats the going rate per exahash? |

Seriously? Plz tell me you can come up with something better, i'll even take "This was his plan all along and he's just trying to outspend ABC long term" at least that'd be something, but don't try to feed me this BS! You're gonna get fired if you don't pick up your game  |

so...can we all go home now? I'm cold
i kinda wanna know the price impact... now SV will probably go into war of attrition mode |

Can't wait until BCash SV gets forked. Wonder what they'll name it?
Bitcoin Cash. Nah, that name's been taken. BCash DEF? BCash XYZ? BCash 123? BCash Phoenix? BCash SS (Slim Shady... get it?) But then what if that too gets forked? Oh noes...it could go on, and on, and on, and... BCash Phoenix.. LOL  .. Bcash fork is maybe bad for BTC. instead of one, now we need to deal with 2 impersonator of btc. No that's not how things work. bcash fork is amazing for BTC. The more those players cash out of BTC now the better it is for bitcoin |

Is Craig Wright really satoshi nakamoto? If so, he could send bitcoin price down to 1000usd  This is scary... Whether he is or not is really irrelevant, no one really cares about him, what's important is if he has access to Satoshi's private keys. The thing is, the market would crash hard the second a single satoshi is moved, on top of that he'd probably drown in lawsuits the second he tries to move that satoshi. So assuming his alleged BTC1MM holdings (most likely much less -lawsuits -bcash fork costs), at $1k it would require $1billion to completely buy him out of BTC and let him go play in his SV sandbox. This would be the ideal solutions as it's better to take a hit now and remove the risk at this stage. Which sort of baffles me, because of such high amount he knows his holdings are illiquid so buying up another mil from Bitmain + other ABC holders would make bcashSV so toxic no one with brain would touch it, regardless how great his ideas might be. If he has the keys the SV fork should go smooth and he should be able to take over ABC easily with little effort. But I'm expecting his SV to be a failure which would just burn through cash (he's already cashing in BTC just to fork bcash) so he won't be able to sustain it for much longer, without tapping into those reserves. But the most likely scenario is he doesn't have the keys, in this case he'd try to drag this game out as long as he possibly can trying to create as many controversies as humanly possible to try and stay relevant in this space. |

yep.....looks like Craig Wright has gotten his way and will soon be in control of Bitcoin Cash after taking over more than 51% of the BCH network.
Absolute fucking lulz. I have to imagine Roger Ver is literally in tears at this moment. Babies are dying, etc... Unless he really has BTC1MM (or whatever will be left after fighting ABC) and is actually insane enough to believe he can take on BTC i really don't see his end game. So Bitmain will unload their 1MM in bcashSV to him, and if we to believe that he already has 1MM in bcashSV that'll put him at over 2MM+ in bcashSV. A shitcoin with even less support than bcash and a ton of enemies WTF is he planning on doing with that? His view is quite obv imo: He builds a better product than the rest and therefore generates demand. If Reddit, Twitter or Bitcointalk like him or not won't be decisive for success or not. Now you can obv disagree if the markets will agree with him or not or if he really will have a better product but you asked for his "plan" and here you go, that's his plan. Step 1 pretend Satoshi, Step 2 buy big into fork while cheap step 3 use some of the personal funds to intimidate during fork, Step 4 control shitcoin and pretend it's new Bitcoin Step 5 be richer than at step 1 Nah this power move is definitely costing him a lot! In fact since he pretty much controls every aspect of SV it doesn't even makes sense for him to keep the value of it up and let Bitmain cash out. It'll be cheaper for him to keep the miners running but let the price crash, not much goodwill left to be lost to justify propping the price |

Hmm so bcash needed those insane capital injections just to be at 7% after a yr. Even if he is so delusional, and believe that his product is so much better he must realize the resistance thats building up, the spam, the DDoS, pissing off a bunch of ABC devs etc... I mean he twitted himself that he'll have to dig into his BTC reserves just to take over 51% of bcash which is at 7% of BTC, he seems to be struggling to raise ~4% of BTC hash as is |

So all of this crash was because 2 guys and some more are fighting on twitter over hash power? Ridiculous market.
Can you explain why the whole market is dropping because of a coin that no one give a f about it? A coin in which two children are fighting lol The children are selling vast amount of their many bitcoin’s to keep up their shit show ...which is long term great for bitcoin! |

So you back the SV camp?
I have a slight preference for the SV branch of the fork, this is true. Emergent consensus on the block size, restore the original opcodes, eliminate churn of pie in the sky, dev driven, so-called 'innovation' with no proven value (more properly, 'lets throw it against the wall, and see if it sticks'). Check. I could have lived with the ABC fork, probably. At least it would be free of The SegWit Omnibus Changeset trojan. But what with 'benevolent dictator' calling for preparing an emergency PoW change... just no fucking way. Personally I think Monero is much closer to "Saatoshi's Vision" than anything CW has anything to do with...
I think you are way past cracked out. I like Monero as well. But I have no delusions of it being anything near closer to satoshi's vision. Make the case for me?  |

 At least he's a nice guy, wishing us all a nice day. A nice day for mass suicides. What he really was trying to say is that miners should avoid mining BCH or else... DOOM?  WTF? Anyhow, I see lots of cheap coins, stock up gentlemen and get ready for the inevitable launch soon  Just gonna leave this here If anything I see the BCH fork as bullish for bitcoin. People are presumably going to either cash out their shit fork coin to fiat or/and convert it to bitcoin.
I think we’ll see the bitcoin price go up on the day or a few days after their fork.
Well bcashABC and bcashSV is a closed system, so them exchanging their alts for each other, from the outside, is a zero sum game. Now the big question is inflow/outflow from the outside capital. Do you expect the loosing side just simply watch as they're loosing or do you think they'll try to put up defense and prop up their side? Both sides have their reserves in BTC, so i don't think it's unrealistic to expect them to burn through their BTC stashes to support their side. That's why after the fork the sum value of both chains is usually higher than the initial chain, as both sides brought in outside capital to prop up their visions. I think CSW already proved that he's willing to burn money on hash rate when mining his useless chain, and i don't believe he's a complete idiot, so he'd also need to prop up the value of his chain at some peg as well. But i believe that was already going on as both sides were planning for this and have been gradually cashing out their BTC in preparations for this event. Thats why BTC has been trading sideways for last few months. But in any case this is good news for BTC, the more those geniuses reduce their BTC stashes fighting each other the more irrelevant they become to BTC. tl;dr maybe a bit more short term sell pressure on BTC while both sides deplete their BTC reserves in the last battles of the bcash war Translation he underestimated ABC's power and over estimated his. Now he needs to burn more BTC than he expected to prop up SV. Any day CSW cashes out of BTC is a good day! |

"Craig Wright says he has an exploit to take down Bitcoin (BTC) by end of 2019. Does he? Or all talk?" https://youtu.be/4TOnHAlI_VgWTF? I hope it's just Craig Wright talking out of his ass... CSW's whole thing is to exploit how people tend to believe that things aren't total lies. So when he says he's Satoshi, people think "Well, I don't believe he's Satoshi, but maybe he knew Satoshi". Or "He failed to destroy BTC with mining power like he said he would last year, but maybe he still actually has a bunch of mining capacity hidden away somewhere." Or "There's no technical way for him to irrecoverably screw with SegWit transactions, but maybe he found some bug somewhere." But really he's completely full of shit; the vast majority of claims he makes are complete lies from front to back. (And often just a tiny bit of research will make this obvious.) He found a bug that no one has yet found and somehow he's confident that no one will find it in the next year so he can exploit it at the end of 2019? Anyone taking him seriously needs to get themselves checked. He's just doing a power grab and trying to make himself as power full as possible to minimize his losses and this retarded move. I mean you burn tons of BTC to CryptoRaid bcash  congrat now you got bcash with even less of support than before  |
