Yeah all you need do is lock it all up nice and safe in a hardware wallet and wait 10-15 years

WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME

A friend of mine consolidated all his UTXO's in one and DELIBERATELY destroyed two words in his seeds.
So he's locked out from his funds, until a decent computing power comes at his hands (some time in the future required).
AND in any case cannot spend the coins overnight.


EDIT: Added disclaimer due to JJG concern.

Only two words? Considering one is checksum, that's only 2048 tries IIRC.

Why did he do that though?

Wow!!!!!(I am not kidding)  

There might be a method to the madness.  Only 2048 times, that is way fewer than I would have thought .

BIP39 uses a list of 2048 different words. If you have only two words missing, you can try each of those 2048 words and the other one can be automatically calculated so that the whole seed checksums correctly. At least in theory and assuming you know the position of the missing words.

Mhh,
still checking but i hardly doubt this is the correct answer.
Haring a whole word as a checksum would be so wasteful.
I guess the checksum and the entroypy are "mixed" before getting the words.

The mnemonic must encode entropy in a multiple of 32 bits. With more entropy security is improved but the sentence length increases. We refer to the initial entropy length as ENT. The allowed size of ENT is 128-256 bits.

First, an initial entropy of ENT bits is generated. A checksum is generated by taking the first

ENT / 32
bits of its SHA256 hash. This checksum is appended to the end of the initial entropy. Next, these concatenated bits are split into groups of 11 bits, each encoding a number from 0-2047, serving as an index into a wordlist. Finally, we convert these numbers into words and use the joined words as a mnemonic sentence.

https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039.mediawiki#Generating_the_mnemonic

So I guess the result is rather 2048*2048.
Still doable, btw.

Assuming he uses a 12 word seed.
The checksum is 4 bits.
So would that mean that there are only 2048*16 possibilities?
The next question would be whether you could write a script to exploit that angle.

When we passed $7.7k on stamp it marked the doubling of the bottom of $3.85k we hit at the peak of the covid-market-crash panic.

When we touch $8k, I'll consider that page turned.

Good riddance.

I sincerely have a feeling  that this spring's Covid Crash will end up being seen as one of the MAX PAIN turning points in BTC's history.

NEW VEGETA GAME








VEGETA GAME !!!!!!

$50 worth of BTC to one winner

0.018BTC prize for one winner

Right, we’ve been under $9,000 for quite a while now. I think it’s time to PLAY ANOTHER GAME !!!!!!!!

Ok, this time I’m going to be clear on two rules -

1.) When the price hits $9,000 on BITSTAMP you must post a Vegeta meme
2.) I also want a screenshot of the BTC price on TRADEVIEW from BITSTAMP to prove it’s hit $9,000

**If you post a meme but no TRADEVIEW screenshot - No win**

**You must post a Vegeta meme & the Bitstamp screenshot on TRADEVIEW so I can verify the time of your post against when the price hits $9,000**


Thanks & good luck!


Edit -

Increased prize amount - 0.018BTC to the winner.

Rules will be more strict this time (only one winner).
I’ll be more strict on checking the exact first trade at $9,000 this time.


THE PRICE SCREENSHOT MUST BE FROM STAMP’S TRADEVIEW (as fillippone advised last time) SO I CAN VERIFY IT PROPERLY (eliminates photoshop cheating)

Little reminder

Out of Merit at the worst fucking time. There’s loads of posts here I’d like to Merit, damn it.

Sent you another 10 merit fuel units. Keep rocking!

Good day otherwise....

[Toxic2040]

easy there tex

I have made ALL my trades in the last 4 months based exclusively on Toxic's fine charts

every single trade

[jojo69]

another fact

I never make losing trades

Cannot remember if 9,000 is valid or not.

Kinda like the 2011 Gox hack crash or the 2013 Silk Road bust crash that triggered the first run up to 4 digits?

I hope so. It really showed that the bottom was already in and there was nowhere to go but up.

Covid-19 new treatment ready

↑ those charts are about as useful as a fart in the wind

Fart in the wind you say, it's the real-deal then.

Just sayin ...

[Biodom]

Covid-19 new treatment ready  

good attempt, but it is already "not found for CV"...so far.
semantics, semantics

[LFC_Bitcoin]

lightfoot, Bob, fillippone - Thanks for the Merit boys, very grateful.

Edit - BitcoinGirl.coub too
Edit 2 - Raja_MBZ too, thanks
Edit 3 - El Dude also
Feeling loved!

Bob just sent me 10 so I will do them myself. Thanks a bunch Bob brother.

You got three more

Little reminder

I think you can host a vegeta game in service section. This will create a buzz for other section users too. It just randomly came in mind. Never mind if this is a worse idea LOL

Nice Cute comparison, 1 sideways (We can forget this  ) and 3 uptrend scenario... This chart guy/girl is good soul, keeping his/her good work in lockdown.
"If the #bitcoin price stayed at $7502 until the 3rd halving, this is how the cycles would compare."



"This is how the #bitcoin cycles align assuming halving prices of $8k, $10k, and $12k"
