I have two stuck coins I have been trying to free since 2016.
What's up with them? Why are they stuck? mEth not btc it happen when morons forked chain to fix the fuckup in 2016 it was pretty painful to see them sitting there when mEth approached 5k. When it happened meth was at six dollars. I did not bother trying to unlock the bad wallet no time for 2x6=12 bucks which was what they were worth. At this time I think my clones of the wallet are all corrupted and I pretty much gave up on trying to get the wallet unlocked. no worry about stuck coins... supreme meth head leader Gaytalik will increase the supply when he sees fit... thanks Paashaas for your many positive posts recently... helps coping with this dull price action...

Ted Kaczynskyi died in prison yesterday at 81. The FBI website designates him a terrorist but it is believed the CIA created the monster by subjecting him to mind control experimentation over a 3 year period under the code name Project MK-Ultra.

... Recently we were visiting London. I had read somewhere that the UK authorities had banned BTC ATMs because, well, reasons. coinatmradar.com did (and still does) show some +/- 10 such BTMs in greater London. So, being the sort I am (I did not want to hang around my wife and her friend doing boring tourist stuff) went to check one out. Well, it turns out that I found one that would sell me BTC without asking for ID or even an SMS by cellphone. Just put your money in, and get BTC out. Worked just fine. BTM located in a market with an ethnic name close to the Angel subway station ("Northern Line"). When I travel to other countries, I like to buy BTC as a souvenir, smile. It also gets me to visit places I otherwise would likely not visit. Very interesting. Bear in mind re: SMS verification, that in the UK you can buy SIM cards without showing ID.

Some people in bitcoin speak like it is some kind of a cult. Does it matter? Not really, as there there could be all kinds of justifications to buy bitcoin. If someone wants to proselytize the "DCA army", so be it. Not my cup of tea, though.

They had a know synching issue when moving the wallet past the “correction” of the exploit I worked at it for months in 2017 when meth took off and the 12 bucks had turned into say 2600. I dont even know where I put the old clones. All these years with btc I never lost a coin or fraction of a coin. actually the meth was the only coins ever lost by me. In my case mr v can either die of natural causes or apologize via pm and give me 2 coins. Single biggest reason I do not give two shits about eth. I have a longer list why they suck but thats for a different thread.

Nassim Taleb also called bitcoin a cult the other day. It becomes a bad habit. In my opinion, bitcoin is something just the opposite, because it does not force anyone to do anything, but gives the freedom of one's own choice. Even if someone talks too enthusiastically about it.

WHAT? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Really?, i really dont know you can made that in the UK. So in the end the City of London (and im talking about the "financial" microdistric inside London) its also have his side on BTC, you can buy BTC in a ATM without nobody knowing. tax haven like "City of London". Really good fact to know guys, thanks for that, next travel to London can be used to buy some BTC......

if the SEC forces shitcoin scams to register and disclose all of their actions and holdings, that's fine with me.. would love to see how mETH dealer Vitalik discloses what a centralized staking garbage he is peddling
Well, all I can say is Vitaik's meth creation allowed me to "mine" bitcoin profitably with ancient GPU cards for quite a few years. I played the game, I made the gain. When it went to that staking thing nonsense, I finally put my mining gig to bed. Yeah, 9 years of "DCA" mining various <redacted> was fun stuff. <batslappening.img> Especially the first year, when I actually mined the real McCoy, King Daddy with 2 used S4's. That chunk of change was converted to my new garage. that's all cool, because you are able to differentiate between the real McCoy and shit. But for noobs gaining that insight can take years. And many don't make it that far because they loose their money with shitcoin scams first. I know at least 10 people I talked out of buying shitcoins and prevented them from getting bent over.. And even though my BTC stash increased because of various airdrops and forks (not gonna mine or buy that shit), I rather had a market without these scams that direct substantive investments away from King Daddy Believe me bro, I would like nothing better than all the shitcoin scammery to go away. But sadly, it's not gonna happen. Pandora's box was opened years ago. So I made the most of it. When I first started playing in the cesspool of shitcoinery 10 years ago, it blew my mind how much easy money was floating around. I knew it was all a big scam. I even scammed the scammers, but that's another story for another day in a different thread. But it just kept rolling. So I rolled with it. My only regret was cashing out way to early. Those plethora of airdrops were all free money as far as I was concerned. (As long as you could navigate through a few mouse clix without being hacked). I held <redacted>as long as it took me to get it on an exchange and convert it to bitcoin. Just unbelievable when I look back on it. Memories

It is the single worse loss I have ever had with any coin of any kind. And when it happened it was only 2x6=12 dollars. I sent a lot of requests about this to a lot of people and finally gave up. Could be worse it could be 2 BTC.

I think I lost half a bitcoin back in 2015. My worst loss. Live and learn. That sucked. It was like $100 at the time. I just shrugged and chalked it up to cost of playing with fire.

If I knew in 2015 that btc would be at 25K 8 years later (with 69K peak), I would max up the credit cards (or used my 401a funds), obviously. But...you never know. I am saying that in both cases losses could have been easily remedied at the very moment they occurred, right? We always have regrets for something that could have been bought small and then blew up gigantically. I bought quite a few AAPL shares in 1997, but sold them in 2000 when we entered the bear. Made about 10X, 'lost' another 180X of appreciation, was actually thinking of re-entering at what is now $0.32 (split adjusted) in 2002, but somehow did not. Does this eat me: absolutely not because you cannot reverse time. I am telling this just as an anecdote. Your decisions are part of your life. You never know what you would have done with those 2 eth and/or 0.5 btc, right?. I am almost 100% sure that I wouldn't have held AAPL for another 23 years as I am not Warren Buffet, but, subconsciously, maybe I have learned something like this: never sell your winning investments because they could keep on winning for decades.

I like you mindset, and i also think its the mindset everybody needs, not only to be healthy and to no regret their decissions but also because i dont like that greedy people who always think in the other direction, thinking always they win or they are gonna win more, because yes, with the time passed we know you can win more, but in the time when you made the decission all was unclear, and a 50/50 chance to go down or go up. I know we see a lot of the examples of people being rich for hit one of that holds, but we always dont see the big number of people who go bankrup making the same but not having the good fortune on their side.
