Somehow I got logged out. The capchas on this site are ridiculous.
I use a VPN and I find the captchas everywhere ridiculous - especially on Google. I don't think it really has much to do with security... they just want to know exactly who you are and hate it so much when they don't that they want to cause you max pain in hopes you'll give up on privacy. Duckduckgo is my best friend for searches now. duckduckgo uses google search so I've been using https://www.webcrawler.comSomehow I got logged out. The capchas on this site are ridiculous.

Duckduckgo is my best friend for searches now. Startpage is also a good choice. They have been proven to log you. Very quickly tried to look for sources of this (not using Startpage!), but could not find any. If you have a link, please post it for us. Privacy Tools lists both Startpage and DuckDuckGo in their Best Private Web Search Engines (if this means anything). I guess one can never be 100% sure of who's watching... Tor, maybe?

You coming off as somewhat crazy... Binance is currently coopted by the US Govt, under strict surveillance.
Everything is completely on the up-and-up there then, for sure. Remind me why we have a distributed peer-to-peer currency again? I was not suggesting that everything at Binance is on the "up and up" but instead that any kind of analysis of the various kinds of shenanigans that might be going on is going to be way more complicated than to say that they are just like FTX, which surely is a lame-ass talking point from previously, and even that earlier talking point was not true.. prior to Binance agreeing to the monitoring arrangement that they are in currently. a true storage gourmet
Speaking of which, a lot of people here might not know of the accomplishments of Joe Breher. They see his Picnic Bear avatar and think of him as a grammar/spelling-obsessed grinch big-blocker. In the world of data storage he was a hero, developer of many systems, storage engineer extraordinaire. A living legend that we like to beat up upon in these here parts, especially when he was pumping some of that BIGblocker bullishit and also BSV.. don't forget so easily how retarded BSV had been the whole time.. what reasonable person could have had taken BSV seriously? even back in when it was first started in late 2018?.. ... .. which is one of the great things in regards to a quasi-anonymous forum in which the contents of your posts might also carry some weight.

I think he mainly stayed in real Bitcoin though. ....
I hope so. I will admit he did have me actually teetering there for awhile back in the day with all that fucking forking nonsense, as I respected his opinion and intelligent posts. Regardless, I went with my gut instinct and dumped all my free be-trash for the real Mcoy... King Daddy. Thank goodness. ..what reasonable person could have had taken BSV seriously? even back in when it was first started in late 2018?.. ... .. ....
Obviously the fraudsters who were in on it.

Obviously the fraudsters who were in on it. jbreher was pumping BSV too.. so that was the context of my making that above-quoted statement, and many of us considered him to not be a fraudster.. so yeah, it is a problematic part of his history. He used to come into the thread quite regularly maybe daily or every few days, and just say that he was coming in to correct the record and blah blah blah.. which largely amounted to pumping BSV. Of course, we have rights to have our own opinions and to express them in this thread, but surely many of us know that it is a slippery slope to be pumping shitcoins in a thread like this, and so if some of us might be bashing on various shitcoins, including BSV, but then if someone like jbreher came in to defend BSV. it just seems quite a problematic position for him to have had been taking, and of course, many of us know that he does not seem to be any kind of dummy.. which can make it even more dangerous when guys who are persuasive in their position support and/or promote seemingly obvious scams like BSV (and the scam level was even known then), and sometimes he would even try to suggest that there were ways to still support BSV but not necessarily think believe that CSW is satoshi and other nonsense like that.. (which is additional muddiness, at best), and so yeah, some of us find those historical attacks on bitcoin to have had been problematic. and we thought that they were problematic at that time too.. .. in 2016 and 2017 with all the bcash bullshit, and then in late 2018 with the distractions of one bcash (abc - or BCH) and the other bcash (sv or BSV) splitting up and causing more drama... and likely lured some innocent folks into supporting those shitcoins (at least until the gullible ones would some times end up learning better after they had been tricked and fleeced).

This thread is always at the top, no need to pin it. And besides that, I dont think this thread meets the criteria to be pinned - for what reason?
