Is laszlo back?

Let the Legend make a post here. It would be interesting to have him in a discussion.

I agree with you @Little Mouse let the legend make a post here. Having him in a discussion is going to be an interesting one, let him come and give us legendary vibes. Am really happy seeing someone like laszio back in our midst again, although I was not here when legends like him where active, but having him back make me look like a legend too, because I we now he having discussions with a legend like laszio. Welcome back laszio we miss you and love you.

It was when I was reading through the comments on the pizza day announcement thread that I saw that someone had noticed that he came online recently, but no post had been made yet. A profile like that could be a high target for hackers.

By the way, I saw that Laszlo's profile revived a few days ago and he's back reading the forum. We could honor him with a warm welcome back.
He hasn't written anything yet, but it would be nice if he could express his thoughts on this contest.

Checking the recent activities, the account has either been recovered by the real owner or hacked. Until there is any suspicious activity, all eyes will just be on the watch to see how and what's next with the account, if the real owner will make a post, or if it has changed hands.

Last online of Laszlo is july 14, at 3:57 pm which is pretty sure that  the owner himself will have the access. Cause if not then the admins will take action of it. We all know how the admin strict on that kind of scenario and also Laszlo is one of the high profile here in Bitcointalk not just in Bitcointalk but all over the internet  industry cause what he made in History is very clear to us that he is a legend.

Now hoping that he will create a thread himself and start engaging with us. For sure that is very interesting.
Maybe next time Satoshi will back here too.

This is what we all hope for, that Laszlo will return to writing and interacting with us.It would be much appreciated by the whole community
Unfortunately, things won't be the same for Satoshi. His account has been deactivated, and honestly, if he were to interact with us again, I'd expect Bitcoin to collapse completely, with everyone panicking.He left for the good of Bitcoin and I hope it always stays that way.

laszlo is back and I hope that the legend will share more details about what he did many years ago with his bitcoins for pizzas.

Did Laszlo Hanyecz exchange 40000 BTC for 8 pizzas, not 10000 BTC for 2 pizzas?
He said something about this in a following interview

[As-Soon-As]

If I'm not mistaken, I can definitely say that Lazlo is not dead yet, but it's not unfair for him to come back to the forum. This is a more positive sign for us, because he is experienced in Bitcoin and he saw Bitcoin reach its highest price, which is why he seems to want to be active and congratulate us. We are happy again because we have another old member alive among us.

I am not sure whether he is going to break down silence because he is already one of legends in Bitcoin history for his Pizza spending but also after watching this price $120K he is also regretting about his decision not hold anymore.

Having huge amount of Bitcoins and not holding is also regretful for anyone because he could be above millionaires if he is able to hold and enjoy these early days but now all ended and things are going on many changes their lives due to this and many are feeling sad they have done not right decisions about this, but now he could be remembered in Bitcoin history for his this action.

If the account has changed owner, I think it should be flagged, as the risk of scams could be material.

Anyome has more insight on what it is happening?

Nothing to be suspicion about in the main time until the user accessing the account comes with something fishy.
So for now let's just assume it's the same official Laszlo that went active with the account. Like as _Act_ recently said, if Laszlo is still alive, of course there's possibilities that he'd sometimes come online. It's his right and decision.
I think such of this skeptics triggering doubts and questionable mindsets of us is why Satoshi may have decided to stay off all these while.
I just think about the forces that it may result if Satoshi shows up here somedays. Really going to cause lot of trafics.
So Laszlo was probably active of recent just to check out the activities of the forum. I guess he expected a lot to had happened since he was inactive especially in the current time that bitcoin has caused global golden insights following the current Aths trends.

After being inactive for 11 long years, he is suddenly active, but so far he has not shared any of his experiences or opinions on the forum. After becoming active on July 14th after 11 years, today is another day, but in the last two days, he has only been active but has not posted anything. Today, July 16, this post is still active, but there are no new posts on his profile. We are eagerly waiting to hear from @Laszlo. Hopefully we will get his feedback very soon.

Maybe laszlo came back because he saw we recently had Pizza challenge in Bitcointalk forum
It would be cool to see him posting something again after not being active in forum for more than eleven years.

I am not sure the legend will everly post. He might decide to be in the read-only mode. If he drops a thread, it will be crowded by many people. He will receive some direct attacks by those who feel he made a mistake in the past. Opinions will be highly truncated and dramas could be arise.
One good thing I will enjoy is that some OGs will discuss in his thread but the new members like us will definitely water down the vibe.

All eyes on the legend to see when he will drop a post.

The address on his profile page was last used in 2018, so that must be 4 years after his last post in this forum.

Holding the keys to his address for 4 years, makes me comfortable enough to say that he can still have access to his forum account. Besides, his story has been spoken a lot, but if you think about it, it's only the timing that made his story so compelling. I have paid for cocktails a week ago using LN payment, but nobody cares about me  (obviously I love his story a lot, I am just kidding)

Only 4 years? I still believe he holds keys to any address used over 10 years ago so I personally have very high faith that he is the same person behind his account and all the addresses.

I mean, what could make a person who said this change his mind at all?

1 BTC sent your way you Bitcoin legend  

Wow thanks, I do still have access to it.  You should never delete a wallet, even if you've spent what was 'in' it.
I appreciate the donations, but nobody owes me anything.. I generated my share and I spent it, it was just at a time when the value was lower, but so was the generation difficulty, and the block reward was 50.

Laszlo

[SamReomo]

He is back but he hasn't yet posted on this thread. It seems, he has forgot about using the forum the way he used it back in those days. It'll be really amazing if he comes here and post something. Many people will love to hear his words on this thread. Possibly, we can welcome him back via this thread.

Actually, he lost access to his forum account, and there was help from moderators trying to recover it.

First, it's not true, as he gained his BTC stash with a GPU-mining software, whose code he was the first to program.
Secondly, the timing is exactly what is different between Laszlo and everyone else.  where we were when he bought those pizzas?

In fact, for me, he was a visionary in some ways! When no one had yet dared to spend their Bitcoins to purchase a good or service, he did it. That's the best part of the story! It was perfect timing, and we're all benefiting from it. Most likely without that event, Bitcoin would have been slow to achieve all the success it has now.

@Laszlo This gentleman became active on this forum for the first time on July 14 after being inactive since 2014. But he has only been active but has not posted anything. Again, the gentleman became active a day later on July 16, but he did not post anything that day either. So, after being active for a long time, he has been inactive for two days without making any constructive comments. We are very interested to know the comments of this gentleman.

[fillippone]

I tried to tag him on X.
Maybe I am wondering if any of the OG have a way to contact him in other ways, so that he can confirm he is back.
It would be extremely interesting.
Not that he needs to post anything, just to confirm the profile is legit.

I am just thinking out loud how overwhelmed he would feel seeing all the excitement about his return to the forum. I am sure that he never thought that logging into the forum once again would cause this much jubilation. Now he knows he is loved by the Bitcoin community. I just want to interact with him for the first time so history will have it that Floxynice interacted with Laszlo, the man who bought two Pizzas with 10,000BTC. He is a legend indeed.

While we all celebrate his return; I still feel that there's need to confirm if that is actually Laszlo. I can see that fillippone is already making a move and that is very good.

We have already seen that Laszlo's account was activated. And fillippone posted in his first post with a screenshot of the profile's trust options and BPIP. Was it really necessary for you to post a screenshot of Laszlo's profile here? A post like that is enough to dirty the topic.

I tried to tag him on X.

How can you ensure what is the Laszlo real X profile? i think this is totally impossible to ping Laszlo via X tagging.

My Bitcoin address is 1XPTgDRhN8RFnzniWCddobD9iKZatrvH4

His Bitcoin wallet was last active in 6 Nov 2018 and he done a transaction at that day and since then he has stopped using his Bitcoin wallet. The only way to verify that he is back is if he clears up the matter by posting on this forum. Although I already believe he is back here. He activated his account himself.

Educated guess.
I tried the less scammy address available on X.
But it is only part of the story. I will keep you updated if I get any feedback (low probability).
