They’ll give tips on how to migrate to the new type of wallet but the majority of my coins are in Legacy addresses.

Anybody else got thoughts on this?

Just don’t update your client LFC, it will remain working just fine.

Experimental Descriptor Wallets
Please note that Descriptor Wallets are still experimental and not all expected functionality is available. Additionally there may be some bugs and current functions may change in the future. Bugs and missing functionality can be reported to the issue tracker.

0.21 introduces a new type of wallet - Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets store scriptPubKey information using descriptors. This is in contrast to the Legacy Wallet structure where keys are used to generate scriptPubKeys and addresses. Because of this shift to being script based instead of key based, many of the confusing things that Legacy Wallets do are not possible with Descriptor Wallets. Descriptor Wallets use a definition of "mine" for scripts which is simpler and more intuitive than that used by Legacy Wallets. Descriptor Wallets also uses different semantics for watch-only things and imports.

As Descriptor Wallets are a new type of wallet, their introduction does not affect existing wallets. Users who already have a Bitcoin Core wallet can continue to use it as they did before without any change in behavior. Newly created Legacy Wallets (which is the default type of wallet) will behave as they did in previous versions of Bitcoin Core.

The differences between Descriptor Wallets and Legacy Wallets are largely limited to non user facing things. They are intended to behave similarly except for the import/export and watchonly functionality as described below.

Creating Descriptor Wallets
Descriptor Wallets are not created by default. They must be explicitly created using the createwallet RPC or via the GUI. A descriptors option has been added to createwallet. Setting descriptors to true will create a Descriptor Wallet instead of a Legacy Wallet.

In the GUI, a checkbox has been added to the Create Wallet Dialog to indicate that a Descriptor Wallet should be created.

Without those options being set, a Legacy Wallet will be created instead. Additionally the Default Wallet created upon first startup of Bitcoin Core will be a Legacy Wallet.

I think the fear is for the shorters now. They come here with the hope to share some of their own fear in their utmost stupidity that some people will be afraid to buy now. This will destroy their plans, hence so many of them appeared like a rain worms after a rain here. I know that nobody here is afraid to buy at dips. I am no exception. I bought yesterday with half of my savings, and leaving the rest for 2 weeks, in case some unexpected expense arises. Guess what! I've sent today the money and I am also preparing some extra income for the next week to be used for Bitcoin. Let's punish the manipulators, dear fellow bulls! I don't care really about the price but when someone is trying to manipulate the market, I can sense it and the statistics prove it. Open season for bear hunting starting in 3....2.....1!

For years now science has proven that bears will win with high leverage shorting maneuvers. Bitcoin is most profitable as a shorting instrument, and you can see it clearly in the mathematics of market science as I've already indicated and confirmed above.

Eeeeeeuhm updates fear and greed

Update math’s

Thx

Will past wallets still work?  If so then you can always download a previous version and move the coins.  No biggie.

On the other hand it could take some of the scare away from the Satoshi coins moving ever, lol.

by the way.. were I holding lots of teeny utxos especially tied legacy addresses I would be consolidating those pretty soon.  Like this Sunday maybe?

Looks like the train is not stopping at the station.
All aboard!

This is certainly a revolutionary moment in BTC history.. if they do it right!


Crypto zombie had the aftermath of the paypal-pocalypse and it doesn't make it sound as bad I thought it would be actually.

From what they had put in their advertisement they will allow you to sell your crypto, but my question to that is: at what cost?
Atleast you will be able to purchase goods with the crypto you will purchase from them.

Buying from Ebay will be better cause I have had to sell my crypto at a loss to get paypal. If it is atleast 5-7% of the bitcoin value than I will be fine with that.

Paul Tudor Jones likes his inflation hedge better than when he bought the corn. Because he now starts to better understand what he bought in to. Like all of us.

This is my take about PP:
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

We have been gifted something which allows us to be our own bank and I do not care if Bitcoin is hard to be understood and used after eleven years.

I may concede that this could look like a battle won nonetheless if we can't bring more people on the real deal, eventually we will lose the war against incumbents which are slowly marching upon us.

Am I the only one here who thinks like this?

Not really. I've been with the Internet since CHAOS days. Granted when AOL came onboard it fucked a bunch of things up, but the basic premises of the net is that anyone can host content. Yes lots of people use stupid ass services, but I can still run a mail server, web server, TOR server, and it's just as valid as Google's trashpot.

Same with Bitcoin. People who want the real deal will still be able to get it, this is a convenience layer on top of it.

No the problem is too many agree with you.  All or nothing purists which come across as fanatical people.  At the moment I think you should understand an all or nothing attitude is not needed.   I am 98% in my own wallets. To not realize and argue against 98-02 ratios is not the best method.

They are doing this for the sole purpose of being a contender to square and microstrategy, they are just following them at this point and everybody can call it a copycat move if you are so hardpressed to express your option.
BUt even if you do it won't stop them from doing it. You can use it or not, that is your choice.
There are many with the same rebel against the system mentality and have swarmed on to reddit about it:
https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/jfiyvj/psa_paypal_is_a_terrible_custodian_of_both_funds

Some very valid points but it will not deter the powerhouse of paypal regardless.
They do have all of our information and there are alot of people who are onboarded with them from the very start.

Pivot into the momentum from advertisement awareness, use it as an opportunity to educate.  Monetary sovereignty remains the goal. The growing nest of honey badger maximalist will keep this train on course.
