13 years on bitcointalk…

[OgNasty]

13 years ago I signed up for a forum to ask some questions about mining Bitcoin with my home computer. I didn’t realize the journey I was heading off on at the time, but I have to say that things have gone just about as well as they could have. Mainstream acknowledgement, ETFs, giant market caps… These were pipe dreams. So glad I stumbled on this little hobby of ours and decided to try and help change the world.

Congratulations OgNasty. You are a popular figure in this forum and your contribution and impact is visible. 13 years is huge and I want you to be proud of what you have contributed to this forum, the recent being the 100 pushups per day challenge that is helping many in their health already.  As a donator,  you helped in making this forum what it is today. We are proud of you and once again, congratulations.

Nice work @OgNasty.

13 years on Bitcointalk is not a day thing, and I like your badges because you are also one of the most recognized, most merited and lot more. 13 years on Bitcointalk shows that you have achieved a lot of things in this forum. However, congratulations to you for staying this long in the forum.

I'm glad OG posted in reputation, so I can test my signature while adding to the discussion.

OG has one of the worst reputations on the forum.  Two ponzis, theft of community funds, and the worst trust rating of anyone on default trust.  

So, after posting your "congrats" message, go read about some of the things he has done.  

Edit:  it worked.

Congratulations Og. You are the real OG which means a person who is highly respected and influential in the community. And in the forum, I respect you and consider you as one of the most influential figures on the forum. If not for anything you have "Donator" added to your profile. I learn from the lot of you and hope that in some years to come, I can put up this type of topic. Congratulations.

Congratulations OgNasty, 13 years on this forum is not an easy journey as some who started with you are no where to be found, either they lost interest in the forum, died or moved on to other things just like Satoshi Nakamoto did but you stood stronger and determined to have and share this adventure with everyone of us here therefore i commend your resilience and hard work and i wish to also have same experience in the future.

If everything be equal, everyone deserves a second chance regardless of breaking the law directly or indirectly. I don't know in details of how Ross Ulbricht got convicted and condemned to rot in prison but however, jail is what I don't wish for anyone be it culprit or an innocent person.

Each time I see people who believed in Bitcoin when it was nothing, I show them so much respect. These set of persons believed in a strange currency that was worth nothing and had hope that it will be beneficial to them in the future. Some people mocked them while others saw them as lunatics. But they kept believing in Bitcoin and today they are now celebrities. Congratulations to you, @OgNasty, for your patience and bravery all these years. I wish you more prosperous years in this forum and the entire Bitcoin industry.

I think everybody deserves a second chance so I signed the petition seeking for clemency Ross Ulbricht. His crime might have affected so many lives negatively, but he deserves to be pardoned. He is a first offender, and his crime is not a violent one; he should be given a second chance to correct his wrongs. With his past experience, he can be a great asset to the world.

time flies. during that time some people are also joined asking whether the USB miners still are working. a lot of people jump right in after the first bull run. ETF wasn't in the mind of the users but now it seems like it's a crypto election coming. it's definitely going mainstream despite Biden vetoing the bill.

congrats Og and Trump for the win!

It's great that even after these years, a BTC-grandfather like you continues to remain active on this forum and are willing to share your wisdom of the sage and knowledge.

After 13 years of being involved in this little hobby, what parting words do you have for those new to the crypto industry? I just ask for something original, and not the banal phrases that we can see here every day. I demand wish to hear something priceless from the old bitcoiner. You'll make us happy, won't you?

Perhaps his release is feasible if Trump has spoken about it.

Congratulations OgNasty on this milestone. You have been a good contributor to the forum and there is no doubt. 13 year of being  active is enough to prove that you have contributed wholly to the forum thanks for your efforts, I have learnt enough from your posts and I hope you keep this record going as one of the important personalities of this forum.

Its been a long way coming and it's amazing how active you are till now I guessed this is something easy for folks especially in WO, who have built a family discussing about bitcoin and other stuffs that are interesting to them,  it's not easy getting to you guys are now from criticism to becoming possibly millionaires now. Great though congratulations, your curiosity brought you here and now you made a family from it beautiful.

Wow, I guessed I need to go read more about Silk Road but all I can say now was that his punishment seems too harsh to me.

Do you think Donald Trump will stick to his word or just doing all this since he is trying to get full support of those supporting cryptocurrencies and bitcoin while Biden as been so much disappointing in general especially in this space.

It seems Donald as been against bitcoin before and recently changed because of the election while even Biden is also trying to do similar but it's obvious he won't get reelected after all the mess he has done.
I have learnt not to trust politicians especially those aspiring to become president, they can say anything to get to that position in their manifesto.

Congratulations, for 13 long years you have been in this forum with repute. (1 Yuga One Year) It is a long way you have come, may you have a good journey.  You are one of the few experienced people on this forum, so I wish you the best of luck in the future. And you have gained a lot of reputation in this forum just by your experience, you are a great person of course.

Thank you OgNasty has been on this forum for a long time, thank you most of all you have believed since 2011.  When Bitcoin was new, you collected Bitcoins on faith.  So thank you for your bravery and risk-taking, which is why you are the most faithful of the old at this time. You are one of the few old users available in this forum, because you have the most patience as you have been alive in this forum for a long time. And you will live on with us in the future, so thank you for coming this long on this forum.

13 years ago 50btc per block...but now 3.125 btc per block..
Congratulations OG.
Time cannot be framed in any way. You've seen a lot more change today than you saw in Bitcoin 13 years ago. Bitcoin ETF was a dream in the past but now Bitcoin ETF is a reality. In the future there will be more development on Bitcoin and we will see more Bitcoin revolution.

There are very few old users on Bitcoin forums, but I respect you enough as a 13 year old. Because you have achieved total six batches in 13 years, these batches are not visible in everyone's profile. Yet you live in truth and have a long way to go. Thank you for that and congratulations.

Having cheated once, it is best not to give him a second chance. Because he committed enough crimes to go to jail, I think it would be best to avoid it.

I entered this website of yours, it is definitely a good website, but I will spend enough time here.

Congratulations @OgNasty for successfully passing 13 years with Bitcoin on the Bitcoin Forum. You are a popular person and a donor in this forum. Your contribution will be remembered by members of this forum for life. It is only because of people like you that I have followed this forum that it has remained popular and is becoming more and more popular with people. You've gained a lot and lost a lot from this Bitcoin forum in your 13 years. Anyway, hope you keep up the way you've been holding this forum and we'll be under your shadow. Finally I wish you long life may the creator give you long life and also I wish long life to all your family members.

[Bravut]

Happy 13 years of great contribution, impact, love to the community so far @OgNasty, indeed you deserve your flowers for all the good work and ideas you have shared to the community not excluding myself you are among the High rank members with core value I believe everyone look up to.
It was worth signing up for, congratulations once again.

[Essential10]

@OgNasty Thanks for all you do! In your 13 year long journey you have played a major role in this bitcointalk forum community. Since almost the beginning of Bitcoin and the forum, you have been a loyal guy as an old member. The forum goes so far because of people like you.  Been there since the beginning of the forum so you have been through all the storms of the forum to prove yourself to be the best. As you have passed 13 years I hope you will contribute more to the forum in the years to come, I think it will be your duty as you are the veteran of the forum whom everyone follows.

7 years earlier your know the forum than me, that was an extraordinary experience and gift, I still imagine the price of Bitcoin 13 years ago, maybe if it was still stored at this time it would only be 100Btc, it's unimaginable, forget it.

You are an innovation for beginners, that's an honor, I remember getting my first (achievement) from you, that's a source of pride for me, 13 years you have been here as an artist for beginners, I pray for you to have a long and healthy life.

Cool, it's work that not everyone can do, it takes special skills to start it, cool work.

[SamReomo]

It's really amazing to see that some people are using this forum even if they were the ones who adopted Bitcoin at its early days. In 13 years baby can be somewhat young and it's not a short duration. I believe some OG's will stay with us for much longer time than 13 years and I'm sure Philipma1957 is one of such people.
