Could more be done to include the older generation?

I didn't think there was any doubt about that question. Not because it was specifically designed for the younger generation, but because of what it was truly designed for.
That is, if you had that answer clear, it would completely eliminate your idea on throughts.
So, you have to understand why this innovative idea is among us, then to summarize, perhaps we could say that it arrived at the 'right' time and only seeks to change the traditional banking paradigm, hence it doesn't matter if you're 99 years old, you'll understand it. It doesn't matter if you were born yesterday; of course, you'll understand it in the future.

The idea is simple, I think it's you who makes the  ​​what Bitcoin is confusing.

What would happen to Bitcoin’s value if all countries banned crypto exchanges together ? Can it survive such an action ?
If all countries ban crypto exchanges together, then the price of Bitcoin will definitely be affected and will decrease a bit. But I will tell you that such thinking will never be successful. Remember that no country will ban crypto exchanges together. It is a kind of foolishness to think this way. Instead of such thoughts, think positively. Always think that the more the world is updated, the more people are getting to know each other and people are moving forward with very creative thoughts.

This is quite reasonable. Bitcoin throws a challenge on the ideas held about money, authority, and trust, therefore it expected to see lots of people struggling with it. The changes in paradigm are first difficult to handle, just like the internet in its beginning days. A well given explanation, just like the one you cited, may enable users join the dots, yet complete grasping normally happens with time and from individual curiosity to know more.
Well i think will agreed on this Bitcoin's impact on traditional notions of money, authority, and trust can be challenging to grasp, especially for those who are new to the concept. The idea of a decentralized digital currency can be difficult to understand, and it's natural for people to struggle with it at first.

Well that turns to be correct i think the comparison to the early days of the internet is apt. Just as the internet required time and exploration to understand its full potential, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are likely to follow a similar path.

As people learn more about Bitcoin and its underlying technology, they'll begin to grasp its implications and potential applications.

The primary reason for creating this topic is that 86 million bank accounts in Vietnam were shut down due to biometric discrepancies, but a similar issue is also occurring in the Bitcoin space, and some people are unaware of it.
And what similar problem is there with bitcoin? Who can block all BTC-user's wallets with the click of a button?

I saw a description of this news online that "what happened is the best advertisement for bitcoin".
The similar problem is that some centralized Bitcoin exchanges are doing the exact thing traditional banking is doing, and it's a drawback for privacy enthusiasts.

I could remember years ago when CoinBase introduced a tough KYC procedure, and all the users of the exchange who cant comply with or execute the harsh KYC cant access their funds.
So shouldn't have used centralized exchangers. P2P is the "key to freedom".

Did Satoshi "instruct\bequeathed" BTC-users to use exchangers? There wasn't a word about that in the WP, right?
Yes, there was a word about that in the whitepaper, but some words are provided in the WP that literally discourage the use of a centralized exchange as storage. An example is the first phrase
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. "

We had a talk about Bitcoin and I asked why he is not in bitcoin yet he said the Internet says is money suited for crimes I did some research myself and I found the same thing online.

Tool for illicit activities: Bitcoin's pseudonymous nature and decentralized structure have made it a favored tool for criminals involved in money laundering, terrorism financing, drug trafficking, and ransomware attacks.

This is why my home boy don't want to get involved with Bitcoin, I don't want to say much because I am considering his age, he is still 14 years old and he is spending money on useless things, it was where the idea came from, I mean the whole talk about Bitcoin.

I told him that Fiat is more suited for crime than Bitcoin, dirty politicians can have money move around in fiat and hide it because they are in power but the blockchain is public, is there any point you guys can contribute to add up?

Yeah it can be confusing if they only do one sided research and people don't know how to check multiple sources on where they find those information since they would really get confused about those situation.

But for sure for those bad things created on Bitcoin there are lot of good articles tackle its great use or other useful aspects. That's why numbers of people using it still growing since those negative information shared didn't bother many people to try to invest on Bitcoin.

If someone you know got discourage about Bitcoin because of that matter then don't force him to understand and use Bitcoin because it will never bring any good result. Just let them think about that since for sure in future they realize that they made a mistake for not trying to know Bitcoin on more deeper and valuable sense.

Bitcoin is not only for the Young Generation, not for Old Generation. However, the Young Generation will get more benefits than Bitcoin. Satoshi Nakamoto Bitcoin Creation did not produce Bitcoin, considering only one generation, but Bitcoin was created because all generations got benefits from Bitcoin. However, in the evolution of time, the Old Generation is very interested in Bitcoin as well as the Young Generation. In the initially, all the investors who were in the initials were the Young Generation, but since the popularity of Bitcoin, all kinds of people and nations, from Old Generation to Bitcoin, have begun to emphasize Bitcoin.

Yes. In fact to answer this we must first understand why bitcoin was created. In essence, the main idea of ​​Bitcoin is to create a payment system that does not depend on third parties but on technology. So Bitcoin as a digital currency allows us to send money directly to other people via the internet, without intermediaries such as banks.

So with the concept offered by bitcoin, we can conclude that bitcoin was created for everyone, regardless of generation, ethnicity, religion, country and others. Everyone can use Bitcoin as long as you understand how it works.
Yes, Satoshi himself did not create Bitcoin for a specific generation, but rather to modernize the payment system. He made an important statement while creating Bitcoin, where he said that he created Bitcoin as an alternative to the traditional banking system.
Bitcoin is capable of removing all the barriers that exist in banks and paper money. Since Bitcoin was created to modernize the payment system here, it is equally accepted and applicable to people of all generations.
It’s for no one specifically however we should acknowledge that because bitcoin was created at this time then the upcoming generations are the ones that will benefit from it the most. Making bitcoin more accessible to that generation has become easier due to all the innovations and developments. Ones that we might not even have today yet.

If Bitcoin mining is done on the side without wasting the amount of energy that is usually wasted from thermal power plants and coal-fired power plants, then we will be able to do Bitcoin mining while preventing environmental pollution. This could be one of the strategies for reducing environmental pollution.

Since the only thing we need is electricity and mining equipment that will be powered by electricity, then there are several ways we can achieve that through renewable energy because there are many ways to generate electricity that are not the same with fossil fuels.

Hydro powers are environmental friendly, they don’t release carbon dioxide that will contaminate the environment, and now we also have solar energies that are now been been used to generate electricity, so we can use them to also power mining equipments also to get free environmental pollution.

Hi,

might be a stupid question this one but since there is no "save" option how should we start the program once we interrupt the work?
I have to switch off my PC at night (running on 2 rtx 3090) because of noise, heat etc... and the next morning I run the program again but it looks like every time it starts - it starts from the beginning?

I run it with the following parameters for #135:
RCKangaroo.exe -dp 18 -range 134 -start 4000000000000000000000000000000000 -pubkey 02145d2611c823a396ef6712ce0f712f09b9b4f3135e3e0aa3230fb9b6d08d1e16

And it always begins with
184K/647392446434K, Time: 0d:00h:00m/606620d:07h:59m

Bitcoin indeed challenge the option of centralized banking, but the idea of it total replacement of banks in 15 years time seems really unlikely. Governments, the regulation system, and the need for stability will make replacement difficult.
We should just stop  thinking bitcoin is going to replace banks, in 15 years or more, we not going to achieve that, and if we want to focus on fighting for bitcoin to replace banks, then we going to start creating more problems. Right from Beginning, bitcoin wasn’t  created to compete with banks, or to silent banks, bitcoin was created to serve as alternative currency, so let’s just allow bitcoin to serve its purpose.

We already having problem with the government already, so just imagine that people starts pushing for bitcoin to replace banks, then we going to start having serious problem which different countries, because the government is in control of banks, and they can’t control bitcoin, they can wake up any day, and print more fiat into circulation, but when it comes to bitcoin, it’s not possible. There are just lots of reasons why the government won’t want anything that will tamper with the banks.
