It's time
proxyimages.bitcoindata.science can go to 38.102.86.40 again

Talvez, não me tenha explicado.

Estava a dizer é que, se o objetivo do Bitcoin é ir contra o sistema inflacionário e de controlo, não faz sentido dizer que ele foi criado com o objetivo de comprarmos a moeda desse sistema.

Mas, pronto, isso já é outro tipo de debate.

A ideia de produtos supérfluos é outra questão.
É o mesmo de pagar um pão com um cheque ou com dinheiro vivo.

Se queres fugir a inflação ou ao controlo da rede, não é só usar o Bitcoin com forma de comprar mais moeda que gera inflação ou controlo de rede.

Porque se fosse apenas essa a ideia, nunca teríamos tido o Pizza Day.
Mas, isso já é outro debate.

Mas ter ETF Bitcoin, não é usar bitcoin. É apenas beneficiar da sua valorização (ou não).
Igual a ter outro ETF qualquer.

Isso não é usar bitcoin.

Sim, era essa a ideia do Nikolas Tesla.
Por isso ele ter criado o projeto Wardenclyffe.

Mas, claro, energia gratuita e abundante? Nem pensar. Tudo coloco na gaveta...

Também comecei a ver e parei na metade.. alguma hora preciso acabar.. mas é isso ai, parece que os caras tem tesão em ditadura, não tem outro assunto.

Você pode pedir para o Google borrar a sua casa. Fonte: https://support.google.com/maps/thread/212176423/como-fa%C3%A7o-para-remover-e-desfocar-a-minha-casa-no-google-maps-vista-do-c%C3%A9u?hl=pt

Mas na minha opinião, isso chama ainda mais atenção.. dá uma olhada na história desse cara suspeito de ser o Satoshi Nakamoto:


Às vezes o melhor disfarce é se juntar à multidão e agir normalmente.

You need to have a deposit in the last 7 days to claim Bitcoin faucet and Calendar

Congratulations to you bitmover, I know you could also make it again with more opportunities when it comes to gambling, and as long as you never give up attempting to win, let's see how things go from here forward, I hope you can get more and stack them until you are fully ready to start enjoying more fun in playing.

Trust me Bitz casino is actually doing a very great job, thanks to Bitz for this wonderful contest and am still hoping to participate again in the future.

@knuckey, slot 3 already picked.

Available slots.

I agree--never would I have thought mainstream financial publications (not to mention the average news broadcast) would be reporting on bitcoin other than to give an example of how volatile it is, or used to be.  But that did change, and its daily price gets reported right next to all of the currencies and commodities that have filled columns in papers like the WSJ for decades. 


Yep, that too.  In particular on the forum, I used to be one nasty hothead that teetered on the fence toward trolling.  I think I've cooled down a lot with time and have been more accepting of people trying to earn bitcoin here--though I still would like to see every shitposter gone and the Bitcoin Discussion section purged to the point where every thread is coherent and contains nothing but non-trivial topics.

Pretty sure that last part is never going to happen, but at least things have gotten better since the merit system was implemented....hey, there's a date I ought to look up, and the day before it, too.  Things were on fire all over the forum.

We're entering the final week of the Swap Frenzy!

This will be a shorter one and as per rules will finish this Friday - May 15th, EOD UTC time.

Therefore I'll tag one last time - just those that made at least 1 swap in this competition.
Maybe some of you forgot you can still fight for the prizes, and if nothing else to say thank you for participating in the contest


That being said, let's continue with the weekly raffle!

The raffle for Week 12 is ready!

We're drawing 3 winners, every 5 swaps gave 1 raffle ticket. A maximum of 3 tickets per person were possible.
The reward is 25$ per winning ticket. All 3 prizes can be won by the same person.

Ticket holders are:


The link to the raffle is here!

Current block: #948892
Target block: #948935
Estimated time of the raffle: in ~7h.

All following swaps will count towards the next raffle.

Week 13 - ACTIVE

Qualification: A 100$+ swap equals 1 raffle ticket. Maximum 1 ticket per person possible.
Winners: 3 - 25$ per person. Multiple winners.

Here is the winners of free raffle round#5


Verify

We have 6 winners from this round. Best of luck for next round.

If you change it to my new IP, it should work again?
But that means it needs to be changed again if my new server gets it old IP back.

This one is on me:
The new server is ready, if they restore my old IP-address on the new server, nothing else needs to change.

@LoyceV and @bitmover
The images in my thread are down again. But this time it wasn't me mentioning the website I am not supposed to mention that caused it.
https://bitcoindata.science/ looks fine. http://proxyimages.bitcoindata.science/Pmalek isn't loading and it's giving me an error:

Both the Trezor One and Trezor Safe 3 come with a 0.96" OLED screen. If you only consider the display, you don't get an upgrade moving from Model One to Safe 3.

Trezor announced that they will continue to support the two oldest models (Model One and Model T) until at least 2036. Of course, this can always change. But assuming they stick to that plan, there is no reason to worry about end of support for Trezor Safe 3 for a very long time.

Just get the universal one. You can still decide which firmware version to install on it. Both the Bitcoin-only and the Universal firmware work with the Universal hardware devices from Trezor. The Bitcoin-only model looks better with the orange backplate. I would rather go for the Universal one to be able to store altcoins on it as well if I so choose.

Without such things, Bitcoin market is a zero sum game so capital in Bitcoin market is already circular, it's just not perfect like natural circles such as water circle and there are capital inflow and outflow with different balancing skew towards either inflow or outflow during different period and phase of Bitcoin market. It's for macro vision of the market capital but if it is about individual capital, it's more circular.

People can take a look at this withdrawal strategy from JJG and bitmover to withdraw their profit gradually over time while don't affect their Bitcoin portfolios.
[ANN] JJG Sustainable Bitcoin Withdrawal Strategy
https://bitcoindata.science/withdrawal-strategy

That's the assumption, that's why it is recommended to have different passwords. But technically, websites especially newly created ones have standard way of hashing passwords like Bcrypt or Argon2i which cannot be decrypted or what you ever call it. But let's just assume that's that for safer routes and practice security when creating passwords.

I didn't have my hands on many HW, so I don't have a really good suggestion.
I like the concept of SeedSigner, but I never had one in my hands, so I cannot tell if it's indeed what I need. But apart of that, Trezor has passed the test of time, so it's a great plus.


That's what I also have. And, although the font could be bigger, I am happy with it for now. And I've also used a Nano S before that


I didn't research for that, I don't know. Trezor advertises hard their Trezor Safe 7, but I didn't read of thoughts on getting Trezor Safe 3 discontinued.


Less chances to get the wallet linked to some strange exchange apps that can steal your funds?
I don't play with many altcoins; last time I've checked Monero was poorly handled by Ledger and I've almost lost mine, since then I never tried another HW with Monero. So I don't care if a HW works with altcoins or not.

Maybe. But I think that it's just a feeling. I mean that you can easily buy a new device that doesn't have all the (unnecessary) "convenience" "features" and will be just properly secure. It will even be cheaper, lol!


Good call (on taking your time).
And imho the only minus of Trezor Safe 3 is the rather small font.

I guess you mean bitmover. What's my alternative right now? Ledger is the only hardware device that I currently possess with multi-coin support. I need to keep the alts there. Should I move them to a software wallet on my desktop or mobile or an exchange? No thanks. I have small amounts on my phone. I have a Trezor One that is intentionally set up with bitcoin-only firmware. So they can't go there either. Until I get my Trezor Safe 3 the alts will have to stay where they are.

It's still safer than Windows. But if Linux had the number of users that Windows has, there would be more incentive for the bad guys to attack it and find ways to breach it. Everything can be broken. It's just a question of who is doing the breaking and how hard they want to try.

Well, hopefully the user is using 2FA or another method for obtaining access to those other services. Otherwise even with different passwords, the security is lacking and could eventually become compromised. Using the same password is only one way for hackers to get easier access.

And once it happens, the services are usually not held liable.

So what to do? The user has to make sure their account is secured with more than just a password. It is up to us to keep ourselves, our data, our money and etc. safe. Everything else is an illusion.

Yeah, so correct. And these days, we are more connected to Google services, meaning that Google has access to our most personal information. Yesterday, when I was using Google, I randomly placed my BTT username in the Google search engine, and it literally surprised me that even Gemine knows who is snowpega. It also tells me about my BTT activities, like I recently completed the Bitcoin node challenge.


Then I just went back and asked GemenAi about my personal information, and then it started to tell me about my doings, experience, and future plans. And that gave me another shock. It also tells me that it has access to my contacts. Then I did a little research and feel that i think i need to change the Google and its AI settings so that I won't be able to collect more information about me in the future.

I also checked your name in the Google search engine; your profile is also indexed at the top, just like mine, but AI is not giving any further information about you. Maybe you have already restricted AI and Google from collecting your personal information.

And what if Google's database gets compromise all of our information that is connected to Google will be accessed by hackers. In this case, everyone's property and assets will have a bad damage. So, I am getting more attentive in this case as well and restricting my Google settings so that it does not to collect any single piece of information about me and my actions from the next time.

People use same password for different accounts just for there own comfort, so that they don't have to memorise different passwords for different accounts. The technique can work well for you unless something bad happens with you. It's better to accept this reality in advance that using same password for different account is a serious cyber security flaw because if somebody finds your password then he can access all your accounts. Prevention is better then cure.  

Let me start sharing mine first here

For the throwback

Time flies so fast, and it's nice to see that you can update old threads if you have any updates on them.

I thought the same years ago, when I consolidated at many sats/vbyte But as always, fees can only go down so much, while there's not really an upper limit. Now is a good time.

Optimistic timeline:
I'm hoping to get my Electrum server running again today. Moving many files from slow storage just takes a lot of time.
I'm also hoping to move my old IP to the new server within a few days, so everything will be back to normal.

How will it get to zero since not all addresses are vulnerable. People whose public keys aren't exposed are actually going to Hold. But I don't believe how people are projecting this quantum threat like a solutionless threat. I believe that a clear solution will suffice, if not a hard fork will solve the problem.

Forget about the projections, it could be nearer than you think. And I am buying into the idea of BitGoba that banks will first fall victim before bitcoin. This is my first time hearing this and it is giving a resounding hope.

I meant that you and everyone who wants a secure post-quantum address will have to make a transaction to those new types of wallet addresses.

Not that the people with quantum computers will hack the coins and transfer them.

I observed some people are picking already picked numbers, so that is why I have taken my time to compile the names and numbers already picked as below to help people while making their selection as this raffle is closing tomorrow.


@knuckey, pick another number as 66 has already been picked by someone.
@Kadelvibess, pick another number as 25 has already been picked by someone.

I have to say that the work that Claude is doing lately is truly noteworthy, i don't know what you use it for but i can assure you that it's not just for coding, in fact i have to say that lately it's evolving a lot and they're dismantling many dogmas, things that we thought could never happen, simply incredible.

You're welcome. We're patiently waiting as everyone understands that you're a busy person. We hope to have something better as you do always. We hope to have it sooner than even next week if your schedule permits. [

When I see in the Local Board Post Race that at the end of the month we Nigerians are in the top position because of making the highest number of posts, it really feels good. Even though being at the top is not something new for our board, staying there by making the highest number of posts gives our Nigerian board a special kind of recognition. We need to keep this consistency going and maintain our identity by continuing to create high-quality posts.

I would ascribe this success to the effect of this monthly update that we receive from Amphenomenon here because it prepares one's mind to work harder in the following months and thereby having a good place in the meta section from Bitmover. It is a collective effort and we must uphold the record monthly.

Thanks for the kind words and the push to make an even better job. My final target is to convince you and other users that using my theme rather than the traditional, classic theme is a compelling necessity!

I'm used to accepting Bitcoin for selling signature codes, and honestly, I'm not too concerned about short-term volatility. I think it's rare for someone to need liquidity faster than the average confirmation time just to procure new inventory of digital goods.

You're right about that, and it's very problematic. I recently had to accept USDT on the Tron network because he thought it was the cheapest, and I agreed. The problem was, my client sent it from an exchange that generally offers low fees, and I received it to a self-custody address that hadn't yet made any transactions. I had to sacrifice up to $4 in energy rentals. That really gave me a bad impression.

You have gone so far already, unlike me that is still back back. But I'm actually hoping to play more games today so that I can at least increase my points, because I still have some few dollars left. Last time I was lucky to have won only $10 and I try doubling the money by making some bets but unfortunately I lost everything and it was a little bit painful though.

But this time, I will try my best to increase my points so that I can win something good, but I will try not to allow the game take control of me just because I want to increase my points, once the few dollar I have in my account finishes, I will just quit and wait for the results.

Wishing every participants good luck though.

Você acha que os gringos não estão aproveitando esses juros altíssimos para fazer carry trade?

Toma euro emprestado a 2,15% ao ano (ou iene, dolar, outra moeda) e compra dívida do governo brasileiro pagando 14,5%..

Pesquisei um pouco e encontrei esse artigo mencionando uma análise do Bank of America:


Com o Trump enfraquecendo o dólar, também é dificil ver o real cair..

Não... é apenas uma forma de cobrar mais uma taxas. Talvez com a desculpa que serve para cobrir os custos de manutenção.

Nesse respeito de portagens (pedágio), posso falar sobre a minha experiencia em 4 países europeus: Portugal; um pouco de Espanha, França, Inglaterra.

Em Inglaterra, já fiz mais de 2000km de estrada e nunca paguei portagem, com estradas com qualidade. Apenas passei ao lado de uma via, que tem portagem, mas dá para fazer um caminho mais longo sem portagem.

Espanha, praticamente não há portagem em praticamente lado nenhum. Pelo menos já fui de Portugal até França e nunca paguei portagem. Na zona mais norte, sei que existe algumas vias com portagem.

França, paga! Fiz poucos km em França, mas nos 400km que fiz, paguei um absurdo em portagens.

Portugal, bem praticamente todas as autoestradas tem portagens. Recentemente retiraram de algumas do interior, apos vários anos de protestos. Mas, para entrar em Lisboa, via as principais pontes, paga uns 3-4€ em portagem. Se andar nas autoestradas circulares de Lisboa, paga portagem. Se viajar entre as principais cidades - Lisboa <> Porto - vai ter de pagar quase 30€ em portagens (em cada sentido).

Alternativas? Sim, pode ir de comboio Lisboa-Porto, o bilhete de ida e volta anda ao mesmo preço e demora o mesmo tempo de carro ou mais. Ir de avião pode ser opção, mas custa uns 100€, e com todo o processo de segurança demora o mesmo tempo.

Mas, não sou contra a portagem. Quem anda nessas vias, é que tem de pagar a sua manutenção. Salvo casos sem nenhuma alternativa, como é o caso das pontes de Lisboa, que obrigam milhares de pessoas que trabalham na capital a ter de pagar portagem todos os dias.

Entao me explica a questão da felicidade. Porque no primeiro mundo vc anda na rua e ve a morte na cara de muita pessoa? Nao to dizendo timidez ou falta de ambulantes, to dizendo literalmente que tem gente apagada que eu nem queria dar um bom dia por erro.

So alguns interiores de la que se salvam e ainda tem o problema que a idade media la é facilmente acima dos 50

Eu tenho uma resposta mas sendo que nao tem base economica é difícil comentar aqui aonde por muita gente tudo se resume em "maior PIB per capita".

Talvez so nos EUAs encontrei uma energia+economia um pouco melhor que no norte da Italia aonde vivi por mto tempo

Just that Bitz wasn't aware of the baby day, else you would have seen a post like;
Today is world' baby day, here in bitz, we bring you fun and you can claim sum SATS and bet on the number of babies you will have
I like bitz, and because of their updates, I never miss to visit this ANN thread.

That is the life of a whale, you can lose all and still have a way to bounce back

Gente... licença de novo, mas na Italia eu falo com propriedade, morei mais de 20 anos ai e:

Os tamanhos sao diferentes, e na Italia não ha regiao amazônica. Se compararem EU/Brasil ainda assim é visível como o leste europeo ta mais atrasado e isso considerando que o EU é um centro economico interessante, o Brasil geograficamente se coloca bem distante de tudo.

Na Italia é toda rodovia expressa privatizada. E como o disse com preço la encima. Tem so a exceção relevante da Salerno Reggio Calabria. O resto é pago, e caro.

Sobre o artigo eu diria que direção defensiva salva muitas vidas, inclusive a minha. Rodei em muita estrada feia e tbm nao vou mentir, diferente da Italia não rodo de noite aonde nao conheço e sempre dou uma ida mais cautelosa nas novas ruas para identificar os buracos. É um atraso mas nao acho tudo isso de problema.

Dito isso. Nao quero romantizar a pobreza, so que nesses anos a reflexão que faço vendo Italia, Brasil, recentemente EUAs e outros países do bloco europeo é a seguinte:

Tem gente que com menos consegue mais felicidade aparente, se existe uma base de sustento minima (nem que seja uma casa de madeira no interior). Vao passar muito problema, saude, escola, etc... Mas nao posso esconder que é estranho rodar nas economias mais evoluídas, por ex. New York, ou uma realidade que conheço muito bem, Milano, e ver a maioria das caras cinzentas e fechadas. Nao deveria estar cercado de gente ao apice da carreira, feliz de ir ao trabalho e de ganhar acima da media?

Eu também estou, o brasil não é um lugar pra vc conquistar bens, construir família e carreira.
Na primeira oportunidade, tem que sair daqui.

Mesmo quando o bolsonaro ganhou em 2018, todo mundo imaginava que o PT tinha acabado, lula foi preso, mas aí veio a pandemia e o sistema se aproveitou de tudo que pôde pra destruir o governo, o sistema se reorganizou, bolsonaro foi bonzinho demais, a verdade dói mas é essa. Em 2018 ninguém imaginava que teriamos um descondenado na presidência e que todo esquema de corrupção voltaria mais forte do que nunca, com censura, autoritarismo, presos políticos, inflação e gastos sem teto, criminalidade nas alturas.

Nao digo o metro, mas a malha rodoviaria depois do DF vindo do norte (no caso Goiás, minas, SP, paraná ate chegar em SC aonde conseguir dirigir) eu achei bem digna

Eu rodei bastante em outros países e tirando parte de US e Alemanha que a estrada é boa e gratis, vc nao encontra muita coisa boa e gratis nos outros lugares. Um que eu conheço bem: Italia. Para fazer 800 KM vc paga 70 euros. Isso num pais que nao ha salario minimo e aonde o salario medio fica muito estagnado (diferente do BR aonde vc nem vai pensar de pagar rodovia se ganha 1500 reais, mas se ganhar muito mais que isso, o que acontece, o pedagio vai ficar muito menos pesado em proporção)

Oh now it makes sense to me. I didn't know that wallets have that checks built in. This is probably why my transaction was blocked instead of just giving a warning. This is basically a protection mechanism to prevent one from burning their coins on transaction fees accidentally.


So dust is basically a relay policy and not a concensus rule if I am correct. This means the protocol itself doesn't care if I send a little amount (considered dust) but the majority of nodes won't approve it.


This is the part I was getting wrong before. So in theory, I can run my own node with dust relay fees as 0 and mine my own block to approve it but practically, finding a miner that'll accept it is impossible unless I have a connection.

Now assuming I broadcast a dust transaction to my own node and a miner include it, does that make the UTXO spendable forever? Will other nodes see it as a valid if it appears in a block even if they haven't relay it before?
From everything I have read here I feel like there is no perfect solution. It's either you pay fees now to consolidate or you risk getting stuck in the future.
I'm more concerned now because I read some old posts as far back as 2017 where people were trapped with this dust of a thing after the fee spike and it cost them more than what the coins were worth. Thank you all for interesting feedback.
