Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Best open source hardware wallets for BTC?
|
on: June 09, 2023, 01:02:51 PM

Does anyone know of any good hardware wallets that are open source? I've been using a Ledger Nano for years but not being open source is a deal breaker for me. With the Ledger Recover feature meant to help restore people's private keys/seeds by complying with KYC, the hardware wallet could be compromised as we know it. If it's not open source, it cannot be trusted. Any suggestions and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.  Just to make things clear, Ledger wallet's firmware is not yet open source, and somewhat controversial after the announcement of the ledger recover product. If you just want to store btc, then the Coldcard MK4 is your best option. |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why bitcoin mixers are only for criminals

Bitcoin mixers and coin mixers in general are only designed for criminals and are only used for criminals. It's very sad that this forum allows ads from coin mixers. People representing them in their signatures are also supporting criminals. This coin mixers are used to hide transactions made from deals like drugs and child pornography or any other crimes. And nothing else. All the instructions which can be found online are literally telling you how to avoid being trace and hide your money. All those coin mixers are illegal only alone by the fact that they are not even a company or anything. There's no single legal address. They have no financial license. And even all the scam brokers have one. And don't come with things like "Its also a use case for some poor guy in Iran who has to hide". That's bullshit. And you know its a lie. Everyone knows it but many don't want to accept it. They are accepting coin mixers because they think there now some rebellious guy. When you accept them and support them your making the world more worse. You should not give them a chance and support someone else. Support good things. Everyone who tries to find an contra argument will be sad because their aren't any  You are such a faschist! Just because I have nothing to hide, does not mean I am not entitled to privacy. |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Could this pump be attributed to Justin Sun or Binance?

After all he did say he wanted to buy the 7,000 btc with 40 million tether. Coincidentally it appears that most of this btc is being bought with tether indeed. Because of the way the price went up in bits and not all at once. My theory is that they are buying little bits with pauses in between, hoping for a reaction from those who bought say in the 3-5 thousand range want to take profits so they can buy cheaper. Binance is also under time pressure to restore withdrawals so the price actions makes sense to me.

Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Collection of 18.509 found and used Brainwallets
|

As been discussed many times before using a Brainwallet is a bad idea.
I disagree, I have never lost anything from a brain wallet but I have lost quite a few coins from failing hardware wallets and dying hard drives. I have to agree. It would appear to me that your Brainwallet will be as secure as the passphrase you used to create it. So if you choose a very difficult passphrase your brainwallet will be secure. I would assume it's the same as choosing a passphrase for your encryption vault. |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Will BTC and the Alts be easier to manipulate now

That so much capital left the market? Market cap was $220 billion 3 weeks ago. Today, we are barely holding on to $125 billion market cap. How much lower can btc go in price? 3k, 2k, 1k?
I don't feel like it's dead, but I feel like it is a lot more vulnerable than it was prior to a month ago, and I am not certain about a recovery any time soon.

The dump is not the fault of any many but the forces of demands and supplies playing out. We should all accuse ourself because we all benefits from cryptocurrencies when there was a very high upwards movement last year and since the market must make corrections we should then not blaming anyone or group for this.
Not true, The ones who started this had big stakes in Bitcoin Cash. The BCH fork backfired as well, or did it?? Maybe this was the trios true intention after all? Look at the combined cap of both of these coins. It's nothing compared to before. Roger Ver, Jiahn Wu, and craig Wright destroyed Bitcoin Cash, but they got the golden parachutes. They sold high to U.S. dollars. It's Investors who got left holding the bag. They created a domino effect in the market. The bottom line, everyone sold to U.S. Dollars. |

I think there's nothing to be blamed because from the start we know what volatility means. This is what is happening right now which shows not only about price increase but also in an opposite direction. As what we already seen for over the past years, cryptocurrencies behaves unexpectedly. People do transaction everyday which it comes from a different reasons so there's no point to whom we should be blamed.
wARREN bUFFET is protecting his interests. You can't be serious in valuing his opinion, can you? |

This is ever more reason for the SEC never to approve any ETFs. No way, will they anytime soon. They won't let unsuspecting investors get their hands on this stuff lol.
As long as 3 or 4 mafia characters as the ones below can severely manipulate the market and start a panic sell off, they won't do it.
Craig Wright
Jihan Wu
Roger Ver
and do I there add Charlee Lee to this list?

I did not suggest doomsday. I just asked a question because I wanted to see what everyone's opinion was that's all. The subject of this post is in the form of a question. I did not declare anything.
