I just realized that examplens' PM was indeed sent, but it doesn't show up on LoyceVs' PM publisher page. So I'm posting this screenshot as proof of his prediction :





Everyone has sent their PM, so here are your predictions for round 16 :


   Name      Prediction      B/M   
   Hypnotizer      75 098,45      0,25% malus   
   Leahized         75 120,00         
   Pmalek         76 407,00         
   cryptofrka      76 750,00         
   ESG         76 930,84      0,00% malus   
   examplens         78 260,00      1,00% malus   
   LoyceV         82 194,65         
                  

And the user protected by LoyceV is... LoyceV !! It’s easy to see why he’s so courageously bullish this time Smiley.

Quote from: joker_josue on Today at 06:40:54 AM
The same applies to posts.
What does it matter to hide when you were last online, if you have a post that was made 10 minutes ago?

This function is only viable for those who want to visit the forum just to read and not interact with it. Because if you interact, you will be exposing your presence.

i like to read the forum. i like to merit posts. i go many days without posting.

so the current "Recently" on "Last forum visit" in my profile is useless. the merits give me away.

LoyceV had a good suggestion; the forum/script collects a users merits to send as he reads them and only send them the next post. as posting obviously needs to be real time. but me sending merits does not have to be real time, they can wait till the next time i post. so the merits from me to others would suddenly pile in at once.

however the forum currently lacks this capability. odd for such a wealthy forum.

I've had such problems with Mycelium in the past, and in those cases it took a while for the balance to show. Maybe the server is lagging
I added the server when I wanted to know if Cake can pay sub 1 sat/vbtye fee but it was not able to. I have changed to 2 other servers and one other that has the name of cake wallet but all are not working. I decided to leave it on one if the servers and I restart the wallet and it showed the balance.

But I am confused because the node I added which was the last on the list was shown to be working:

Quote from: Karl_3000 on Today at 07:13:00 AM
At first it was not synchronizing but later it showed the coin that I received on the history but the wallet balance is not shown.
This also happened to someone that I know but I told him to use another wallet to send the coin and he did that after he imported his seed phrase on another wallet, made the transaction and it was successful.
It's not a big deal it's sometimes either a derivation path issue or a syncing problem. All the times I've faced this issue on cake wallet you just have to continue refreshing the wallet it will eventually display if it doesn't you can close the app and re open it probably a couple times it fixes itself.

You should move (bottom-left) this to Wallet software.
Anytime I hear mycelium I get a stomach ache lol... It's literally the king of derivation path issues and that's a newbie killer. Nonetheless the only wallet I've never really had similar issues with is ELECTRUM.

It would be a difficulty trying to teach the younger generations about excluding some personal information from social media mostly when now social media has almost become a work place for many and they expose themselves all because of likes and fanbase to top a man made chart and earn passive income by doing this and have not even included the rise of AI inclusivity which is making things more complicated.
They can join social media for finding job opportunities and can use their personal photos, with information about their occupational skills and previous job positions. These things are necessary for their accounts but if they care more about privacy, they won't post more sensitive personal information than these ones, and DON'T flex their lives on social media more than what is most necessary for job finding accounts.

Like LoyceV once posted that he taught his kids don't post personal photos on social media.

Privacy is really hard to protect especially with Internet and many social media platforms now but there are things to learn and apply for better privacy.

Quote from: NotFuzzyWarm on April 21, 2026, 09:48:16 PM
Going OT here... Came across a good paper from Jan 2024, https://research.mempool.space/empty-block-report/ Seems that up until publishing date both mara and Foundry have not ever mined an block.
You may want to correct your sentence to include the crucial missing word: "... have not ever mined an empty block."

Recent data on this page https://mempool.space/graphs/mining/pools shows that MARA Pool has mined 4 empty blocks in the time frame of last 6 months. So, naturally your cited report from 2024 is outdated. Foundry USA has indeed so far never mined an empty block. Only 4 empty blocks for MARA is still a pretty low value. And yes, it's a bit off-topic.

@LoyceV
I have no data and evidence that Foundry suffered a network disruption. Foundry saw both later staled blocks from competing pools, even mined shortly on top of them (it's briefly mentioned in 0xB10C's blog according to broadcasted Stratum work jobs by Foundry). But for some reason Foundry quickly abandoned mining on top of foreign blocks.

I can understand that because AFAIR Foundry found pretty quickly an own block 941881 (anchored to their own 941880) very shortly after Antpool's 941881. After this I don't remember atm the further facts.

If I didn't get it wrong, it makes no sense to me if and that Foundry saw ViaBTC's block 941882 (anchored to Antpool's 941881) and presumably mined very briefly on top of it depending on the timestamps of arrival of Foundry's 941881 and later Foundry's 941882 and ViaBTC's 941882.

To better argue, I will need to find the time and passion to compile timestamps from others what was published in the blog posts I provided links for.

When Foundry found their block 941883 and later 941884 plus 841885 anchored to their own sequence of blocks, the fate of the foreign pool's blocks was sealed and the "foreign" two-block chain branch got staled.

Quote from: VashaUdacha777 on Today at 12:45:54 PM
...
Foundry likely got a bit lucky, but there's still something odd, IIRC. But I need to compile the timestamps to better see the picture. May take some time as it's not the most urgent thing for me.

My point is not to accuse Foundry. I just find it interesting and in the last few years where I watch and monitor the blockchain somewhat more closely a more than one stale block branch hasn't happened. It's very very rare and that makes it interesting to look even closer. Thank you all for your patience and contributions so fare here.

Good contributions does not hide, they're always recognized and the forum does that yearly  which the community votes their choice
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5569520.0
I strongly disagree. That is just a glorified popularity contest IMO. It's fun for the community to participate in and I think the community enjoys it.

Users are definitely recognized via merits, some users are added to trust lists as they have demonstrated good judgement and have shown to be trustworthy, others like LoyceV have tons of information threads that people reference when others have a question which IMO is a great way to recognize a persons contribution to the forum.

At the end of the day, most of the well respected could care less about the pat on the back recognition, but the guys trying to come up are looking for a pat on the back. Do they really need it? You do good, you act accordingly, you help out where you can, you'll be known as a good user. Simple really.

Quote from: Itz-prisigold on Today at 10:20:04 AM
This leads me to the question: do we need any other form of rewards other than merit?
What we need is something like demerit.

Quote from: theymos on January 24, 2018, 11:00:11 PM
There is currently no such thing as a "demerit". I'm hoping that the positive merits alone will be fine. I could add demerits pretty easily later on if necessary, though.

Quote
Currently, the sole actual system of rewards is merit, but being a contributor to a forum can go beyond just receiving merit.
Legends even did not need merit to contribute to the forum years ago, and merit system was launched only because of spamming in the forum escalated to very high annoying unacceptable level in 2017 and 2018.

Quote from: notocactus on November 19, 2018, 01:46:54 PM

Quote
There are always some users who will always assist others to report spam, or initiate some useful discussions, but they are not always rewarded accordingly.
Forum needs demerit source applications against bad merit sources and official demerit too.

High priority = I want my transaction confirmed in the next block and I don't want to risk having to wait longer.

They recommend 2 sat/vbyte, you pay 0.5 sat/vbyte and gets a quick next block confirmation, sure. But there was probably a non-zero risk of having to wait 10 extra minutes for a second block. Cheesy

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 06:38:14 AM
Personally I've been using Electrum recommendation for weeks now. It probably helps that most of my recent txs don't have to be confirmed within the next 30 minutes or so.
Does Electrum recommend fees under 1 sat/vbyte yet? If not, you could pay a lot less by manually adjusting the fee.
Right now:

-Mempool-
No priority 0,2
Low 0,2
Medium 0,5
High 1

-Electrum ETA-
Next block 3.2
Within 2 blocks 2.1
Within 5 blocks 1.2

I couldn't get < 1 sat v/byte with any option (i.e Mempool).

You're looking at the mirror site under *try*rooli.com, that one is there for everyone who wants to learn about the brand (also some improvements still needed there) and it's not restricted.

I honestly don't care what stupid metamask wallet is doing
I'm surprised so many people use browser extensions as wallet, and worse, give it access their entire browsing history!
There are different reasons for using it, for me, it serves as a kind of bridge. For example, in order to use Zenland (escrow platform) I have to connect a wallet, and I use Trezor for that. The simplest way for me is to connect Trezor (address generated only for this purpose) to Metamask and then connect it to the Zenland platform. This makes it easier for me, because I don't have to keep any keys from MM, and the funds are quite safe.

Sometimes I have to receive random tokens, like BNB or pegged BTC in BNB chain, or USDT in solana chain or whatever... there are so many tokens and blockchains around. Metamask supports basically anything. You can also connect it to a hardware wallet. It is a good software...

LoyceV, you think you are being smart, but well... ok you are the smartest one in this round. Here's 50BTC. Make good use of it.

Cryptofrka, are you the Chosen One ? Because when you do something stupid, you dodge bullets like Neo ? This time, it’s a random chance caused by LoyceV that save your butt. You avoid elimination.
This round needed a victim, and it’s you xLays, who’s paying the price. You are finally free, you are now eliminated. But before you leave, you must use your Last Will card. Give me two names from among the remaining players to whom you will give 34BTC.

Now let’s talk about round 16, the last of the three bloody rounds.
The previous rules apply, and ESG suggested an idea to me. And this is the perfect time to implement it.
As with one other round, you can only make one prediction via LoyceV’s PM publisher.
But in addition, the last three people to submit their predictions will receive a malus (0.25%, 0.50%, and 0.75%).
Don’t blame me, blame ESG for this round. We will see if your math skills are useful.




Round 16 : The return of the Bloody round
What will be the price of Bitcoin at April 26, 2026, 12:00:00 AM (BTC closing price on 20/04/2026) ?
Submit your predictions before April 23, 2026, 06:00:00 PM.
 
Cash shop: OPEN
 
Special rules :
The two players with the worst predictions will lose a life.
LoyceV has to protect someone.

The fee is not stable, you can see 0.2sats/vbyte and used that for your transaction and the next minute you broadcast it to the network, you see transaction surge from other people with over paid fees and it jump to 4 sats/vbyte. Most often, these people that fight for block confirmation don't care about the fees to include their transactions to the next block.

If you are not in rush and can wait, you can wait until the fee drop and your transaction will get mine as quick as possible but like I said, it's not stable. There are days your transaction might get stuck for days before the fee dropped, that's why it's encouraged to use RBF enabled for your transaction to bump the fee later if after waiting for long time.
Cookdata, you do not understand this at all. What other site are you using to check fee? I think you do not know about this. Many people in this forum are only using mempool.space. It is time for us to educate people not to be overpaying. I know this thing pretty well than you think. The fee stayed at 0.2 sat/vbyte. I think people like LoyceV and hosemary should check what I am saying.

It is cumbersome but it can become easier if it is done by bot.
DdmrDdmr has such a bot and he has used it for merit distributions very well. If vapourminer is interested in the bot, he can send a PM to DdmrDdmr and try to get any help.
I think this isn't exactly what vapourminer was meaning to say and LoyceV  has a nice idea for how they could possibly keep it kinda hidden. In all it's a lot like vapourminer is looking for something similar to silent payments but in this case for merit which makes some sense considering his online time too.

But even if we eventually get a script like that what actually are the chances that the admins will implement it? There's still a long waiting list of features like these on the forum.

I've never used it, but when I Google it, the first thing I see is this:
Quote
MetaMask is the world's most secure and flexible crypto wallet, trusted by millions of users to buy, sell, and swap digital assets.
I don't trust anything that claims to be the most secure, and common sense tells me an online browser extension can't possibly be more secure than, say, cold storage.

Metamask can work just like electrum. You can connect a hardware wallet there and use basically any coin you want.

They recently added bitcoin support, supporting even NFT in bitcoin blockchain.

I am not sure if it is the "most secure", but for altcoins it is the best option I know.

Does that mean you've installed "metamask" in all your browsers?
No, only Firefox. Tbh I haven't used it in years as I rarely deal with alts, but for whatever reason I didn't disable it.

It might be a good time to actually remove it

How many shitposters have you tagged, Ignored and keep an eye on for improvement? I'm not going to waste more time on them, but feel free to check my Sent feedback to see which shitposter you think turned into a great asset for the forum. I can already tell you you're going to be disappointed.
Like Nathrixxx that was a plagiarist, was banned permanently before Cyrus gave the user a second chance. Ranking up to Sr. member while post quality is still shitposting level and he will continue with that while getting merit is not his problem.

I agree 100% that multi-accounting takes a long time. I don’t know a thing about casino play. I’m just talking sports betting where the bet is a win or it’s a loss. No negotiations are needed and a win means winnings should be paid. Holy says a book can take winnings and that’s when we argue.

Putting all that aside, holy hasn’t met the standard posted by LoyceV for negative trust.

I do sports disputes here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=717790.4440. It takes days. A book makes an allegation. They have to prove that allegation. If they can’t , the player gets paid in full.

Edited to shorten.
Why would you or any member want to use a standard for tags that was created by any member when the rules are already clear?

I spoke with holy on telegram and gave my opinion, then Ratings Place via pm and both were nice but as you see neither listened. The red tag from holydarkness is borderline trust abuse IMO and should be a neutral.

Rating Place is showing how obsessive and , for lack of a better word, ignorant he can and will be over the tag. No-one wants to read or cares to read the walls of text that he is posting trying to get his point across in a poor manner. It's hard to follow as part of it I feel is only a partial quote and people would need to read each situation to even really get a good sense of what is going on.

Regardless of my opinion, these users are still able to do what they want with their tags or posts. I think putting rating place on ignore is the way to go at this point from the way they are handling the situation they are not going to stop acting insane til the tag is removed and holy doesn't appear to be removing it. I am removing myself from this thread after this post regardless as it's useless to keep giving input on an endless situation.
If you browse the thread you might see the reply. It is a pity that your efforts engaging with both parties did not lead to a mutually acceptable resolution. This thread has descended in to a complete farce. I will follow you out of here and will unwatch the thread as contributing anything seems to be nothing more than a waste of time.

Most of you kids don't know any better and that's fine. But Vlad was an early altcoin supporter - IXC was the 3rd altcoin ever - and he is also known as creator of the world's first "Shit Coin", in 2013. That matters to me, because if he didn't, I would have been #1.

Anyway.

For the longest time I never really understood him, and I still don't, but with so many Fake OGs out there, the forum could use a real OG back, and that is Vlad.

If Vlad2Vlad promises to start abiding by forum rules (multiple-posting seems to be the biggest offense), then I encourage moderators to give him another chance as he is a unique voice in a sea of similar voices.

Petitions from gangs are unlikely to be considered.

Actually I care. IXC is the 3rd altcoin ever. Its okay for people to care about it from a historical perspective.

Seems like nobody gives a f**k about anything you feel, say, or believe in. Smiley

Wow. What a complete asshole of a thing to say.

wow, thanks Nudildah.  I started using edit to avoid consecutive posts, i tried explaining myself but it was such an obviously coordinated attack on me i finally gave up. 

I didn't wanna start trouble i just wanted to be able to post on my old threads if that was ok.  If not then a no would have been fine but instead i got bombarded by a bunch of noobs with 20,000 merit points.

thanks for the voucher.  I can't believe the other guys i've know got over a decade didn't step up.

Basically what LoyceV wrote. People can check your merit score if they are particularly alert and then go to the Merits page to see the post and sender.

And then that particular person watching basically knows the merit transaction but other, less casual surfers won't.

But all of this is moot anyway when the transaction will be fully visible after 3 days.

I am curious though, he has received a neutral and red tag before the tag holydarkness gave yet he has not complained about them.

I cannot be the only one, going through this thread is difficult for the eyes. The endless long posts and scrolling involved has to be taking a toll on other members too. That has to be the reason why there is very little input here from members.

I am removing myself from this thread after this post regardless as it's useless to keep giving input on an endless situation.

Just to keep it straight, I was about to write here about four hours ago, after Rating Place finally address a point that is relevant to the title of his topic instead of wall of irrelevant text. I happened to get a phone call from a friend for a quick lunch, thus I can only write this after I'm home. Just to be transparent that I'll address the matter regardless a post or two.

About whether my feedback is an abuse and didn't go in line with LoyceV's guideline, I would beg to differ. I do write to you, yahoo62278 that I'll mull over it, and when I wrote that, I was hoping Rating Place finally address the matter that will "force me" to change my tag to neutral, as I abide forum rules.

Loyce's guide to negative feedback is [I use RP's quote just because I don't want to hunt the original thread and I memorize the rough point, so I know he didn't manipulate that]:

Quote
Negative (shown as -1)
If you believe someone is a scammer, or someone is likely to scam, that deserves negative feedback. Please provide evidence.
If you really hate someone and he’s a terrible troll, that does not deserve negative feedback.

Scam is defined by Merriam-Webster,

a fraudulent or deceptive act or operation

My tag is:

holydarkness    2026-04-12    Reference    Take this user's statement with heavy consideration and fact check as the user has tendency to butchering words and spin statements into different narrative that meet his agenda. See my post in reference for an instance and read the whole thread [warning, massive wall of text] if you want to learn deeper (Delete)

Rating Place opened the thead with wall of text, a massive one, that I countered with even more massive wall as mine are supplemented with evidences and basis. I narrowed each part down for easy navigation by framing them into a question to Rating Place, that he can answer as rebuttal. None of it were answered. Not even the simplest one.

Now, let's move to the point where I think the negative tag is correct and is according to Loyce's guideline; the very first one:

Rating Place, the written contract is still available if you really want to enter and bind yourself to it and prove yourself, as you basically claimed all my statements are wrong and fabricated to side with casinos. Escrow that number, I'll show it here to the entire overseers of this thread that you dedicate to expose me. I have it in my hand that Betby indeed flagged that user for arbitrage, the flag come from the provider.

You can either take the challenge or eat your word and take the shame all over your stay in this forum for pretending to know everything, even when it is factually false.[...]

As it happened, in beyond abundant and redundant, Rating Place insist that I was misinformed and that he knows better, that flag from provider were just flag, [summarized and freely rephrased] a simple warning that sportsbook can ignore, despite my numerous attempt to tell him that it is not what he thought. I've seen flags from provider, I've asked my contacts of what'll happen if flag was raised by provider.

Now, this is the keypoint: Rating Place insist [and take pride on] that the fund of the flag were going into the casino's pocket and that casino can freely abide the rule or not, and by the sheer public pressure [that also involves in his art of snipping posts and twisting statements, of which IIRC fall under category "deceptive act"] he got the casino to pay.

THIS is where the negative flag instead of neutral tag is based on. His insistence that provider's flag is just a warning and not binding to casinos.

The way I see it, casinos through their representative accounts are also part of the forum members. Thus, they're entitled to the same treatment, protection, and fair judgment as other members. Forcing "someone" to pay, based on outdated knowledge that Rating Place insist as the truth [and that I know nothing about, that the casinos lying to me and I take their words easily], be it by sheer force of peer pressure as result of his "deception act", or [this is where things goes snowballed] the personal behind-the-screen cases and/or cases that he handled on his thread, where he get the sportsbook to pay the player because he deemed the flag by provider was not good, put the member of this forum [the casinos] in financial loss and if people not warned through tag, the practica will continue.

Yahoo62278, I stick to my words when I said I really value your input and would mull over to change the tag. Yet, Rating Place's insistence and negligence to address my points [or even just one of the seven points I raised], especially the one above, is why the tag stays and why I think it should be neg until he learn to stop deceiving people.

Rating Place, you insist that I lied, I can easily disprove that, I've offered this over and over, and you always backed down when you realize the stake is real. If you're so sure that you know how things works in sportsbetting and provider flagging, and that I was being fooled by sportsbook [etc. etc. etc.], why were you so afraid to take my challenge?

Escrow 1,560,000 USD, I'll show you the evidence in abundance. The amount shouldn't worry you as you'll get it back, it is escrowed, I was wrong all this time, now you've publicly proven that I have zero knowledge of sportsbook and provider, and I have to retract the tag.

What stops you?

Normally I don't like to answer you on these things since they proceed to long drawn out arguments. Most of the time I just ignore it. Once again most of what you said above is untrue. I don't think that anyone will read it but if they would like to know, I'll answer.

You gave me negative trust the day after I criticized BetPanda 7 times. You admitted to being bias towards BetPanda. We all know what happened.

How about some userscript that collects and halts all Merit transactions created by you, until you make a post? I'm just thinking out loud here, and it's not something I can build, but if this would be possible, you could more or less accomplish what you're looking for.

this i like a lot. it only affects me as far as merits are handled, the only issue (which isnt one really) is if i wait too long before posting and triggering the merits its i may waste some if they time out (30 days till source merits decays). again thats minor and only affects me.

You've sent out double my number of Merit transactions, to more different accounts, and you often read and Merit old posts:

That's commendable, and takes a tremendous amount of effort. You must have one of the highest "sent Merit transactions" to "posts made" ratios on the forum, and that makes the privacy implications for you more than for anyone else.

It is cumbersome but it can become easier if it is done by bot.

DdmrDdmr has such a bot and he has used it for merit distributions very well. If vapourminer is interested in the bot, he can send a PM to DdmrDdmr and try to get any help.

Quote from: JollyGood on Today at 09:05:15 AM
Something that has an immediate effect on any member reading your posts is that many are mostly far too long with quotes and replies. It will help make posts easier to read and understand if you somewhat reduce the size of your posts.

If you genuinely feel he has not helped people have their money back in the previous two years, put that in a legible list of complaints/concerns and ask him to address the points.

Again, if you are alluding to holydarkness taking payments from casinos in order to collude against a complainant then you must provide evidence.

In my unbiased opinion, I can state that I have seen him engage on a regular basis with members that are making complaints against casinos as well as the casinos themselves. He looks at the information the accuser has supplied and asks the accused to provide a reply. Then vice-versa.

If we are being honest here, we both know there are many cases of multi-accounting and breach of rules by those making complaints but that does not apply to all of the cases. Most of them are closed on the basis of that accusation and when made, what is holydarkness supposed to do? How much evidence will the casino show him to support their claim when they are tied in to various data protection laws?

It is the other cases where casinos have selectively scammed members that deserve more attention.

As we both are aware, holydarkness is not paid for his time, he is volunteering his time in an attempt to streamline a process that expedites complaints against casinos and seeks resolutions. He is the so-called man in the middle, he cannot force either party to do anything. If anything, he can express an opinion to both parties but I fail to understand why you believe he can influence the outcome.

First off, thanks for taking this issue seriously.

My concern isn't money. I don't care how anyone makes their money through sig campaign or under the table. My concern is that players get paid 100% of what's owed. To be blunt, holy is incompetent and believes everything that a casino tells him. Because of his recommendations, I can't remember one time ( memory only, haven't fact checked yet) in the last 2 years where players have received their rightfully owed winnings based on holy's recommendation. Poster pressure has overturned holy's recommendations and winnings have been paid through forum pressure. This is sportsbook only.

Because I'm the biggest voice on the players side and holy's tendency to recommend for the sportsbook as far as winnings being paid, this has led to tension. The negative trust is based on holy trying to silence my voice.
I agree 100% that multi-accounting takes a long time. I don’t know a thing about casino play.

In business, you can negotiate a price. In sports betting it’s a win or a loss. Holy negotiates sports betting. If you negotiate sports betting, the player always loses because he gives up something. Holy losses a players winnings because he thinks the book is the middleman and must listen to the odds provider.

Putting all that aside, holy hasn’t met the standard posted by LoyceV for negative trust.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 07:15:26 AM
LoyceV, how do you collect merit information?
I use theymos' weekly data dump to get all data at once, and I use individual profiles if I need an accurate Merit count.

So, this data is already sent with dates/times, right?

If that's the case, then this omission ends up being of little relevance, because there's always an official record.



Quote from: vapourminer on Today at 11:18:13 AM
ok, so what about running a merit update once a day or some similar timeframe. only the sender gets an ack, other than that no one has anyindication of merit sent/recieved. then once per period (like a batch update) the forum then will list all the merits and exact time in the list, and also populate the actual posts with its list of merit and givers.

so basically no one will see sent or received merits besides the sender until the forum wide update. at that point everything is the same as it is currently.

better? worse?

Technically this is feasible, but it would involve a change to the merits system structure, which could involve a lot of work, and in the end I don't know to what extent it would be worthwhile and useful for most users.

Does this method improve things? I don't think it makes much sense for new merits given in a post to only be visible at a specific time of day.


I believe the idea of ​​someone hiding that they were online is when they are online but not participating, so that others don't know they were logged in.
Making a post or submitting a merit note is participating in the forum. How do you want to participate while simultaneously not wanting others to know when you were last online? I don't think that makes sense.

At least, I can't see a situation where that makes sense.

I remember reporting many of Vlad2Vlad's posts for breaking rule number 32 and now he is doing the same thing again even though he is surely aware of that rule.
This user doesn't deserve a second chance.


I reported prodigal son's posts too.

I have no idea what rule #32 is, nor do i care, cause everything i posted on this thread was my personal views.  I guess with UBI merits comes communism.  Your commie opinion is duly noted and tossed into the dumpster fire. 

Thank you for posting, comrade community commie snitch.  🪆

funny.

It was deleted as LoyceV already pointed out.



Good to see it got (silently) restored. Thank you, whoever has done it.

I'm closing this topic as it served mostly its purpose. Some answers remain missing and I don't believe we or I will get them, anyway.

He also received some merits on February, 2026, which makes me wonder why we are allowed to send merits to banned users.
Merit is for posts, not for users. If the post is deleted, you can no longer Merit it. If the user is banned, and the post is still there, there's no reason to restrict it from receiving Merit.

Vlad2Vlad is a well known ixcoin community leader
That's #5686 on CoinMarketCap. Nobody cares.

long before many posters here even heard of Bitcoin
I find that hard to believe, but it's coming from someone who earned 3 Merits in 4 years.

I think more about a security lock on this account.
i explained this already and i am permanently banned
It makes more sense if it's "locked for security", as "normal" permanent banned mean you lose your signature. Unless there's a new type of ban I don't know about.

In the span of ~20 minutes i had hundreds of posts deleted, all
my ~7 accounts on bitcointalk banned permanently, and i was also banned for life from twitter and youtube.  I used to be a bad rule breaking type of person.
Which 7 accounts? What makes you think we want you back? Even in this topic you're breaking rule #32 many times already.

What's their problem? They're going to keep collecting data on when a merit send was given to someone.
Unless this data collection is done, I could see the list of merits sent/received by each user.

LoyceV, how do you collect merit information? Is it possible to collect this merit directly from the topic or not?

If really no one is buying they should be offloading them already.

I can imagine many companies shredding them for safety.

Usually a DBAN is more then enough for security.

It's the cost due to time.

If they pull the drives and try to get rid of the PCs nobody wants them. 6th gen units with DDR3. There is just no demand. So they go to ewaste and get $0.25 a pound.

If they spend the time and time = money then they are paying someone to wipe the drives and sell the PCs and they probably will not get back what it costs to pay the person to wipe and sell.

I tried to give away USPS large flat rate boxes of 1TB drives for the cost of shipping which was about $26 and got no takers. So I wound up putting them in the ewaste pile.

Have said it many times. Want some 1TB 3.5" spinning drives and are US based, let me know and I'll take a look at what I have left, probably only 2 or 3 at this point but for me they are just taking up space on a shelf.

Quote from: Yamane_Keto on April 17, 2026, 10:37:12 AM
use Bitcoin Core with pruning mode, which allows you to run a fully validating node without needing more than 700 GB of storage space.
pruning mode, mean approximately 50 GB of storage space.

to enable Pruning open bitcoin.conf locate bitcoin.conf then
 
Code:
prune=5000
Prune node does not require to download and store the full Bitcoin blockchain so it is lighter in storage for people who can not afford to store the full Bitcoin blockchain that is very heavy.

Full node or prune node, people all have to do the same Initial Blockchain Download aka IBD and it takes the same long time with same device. This one can help but there are risk and even LoyceV warned that don't do this.
Bitcoin Core pruned blockchain: download it here! (DON'T DO THIS!)

You should clarify this part: "they must wait for at least 1 week to 1 month after requesting the refund". It looks like a month, but technically it's just a week you're guaranteeing.
Once OP/Tomboi asks for a refund of the escrow balance, I will process their request only after a minimum of one week, and I have the right to ask them to allow me more time. If there's no scam accusation posted or nothing suspicious found from OP, I have no problem refunding after a week. Of course, the week will start from the moment of my public post here.
If any scam accusation is found, I have the right to hold the fund for more than 1 month, as stated.

Thanks, LoyceV, for pointing out these. It will help me in the future. Setting up escrow terms is one of the most critical jobs lol, as many may take advantage of wrong wording/terms.

As far as I understand, those are only at risk after exposing the public key, although given fast enough quantum decryption that could be enough time to replace a transaction after it's broadcasted and before it's confirmed.
From my understanding biggest risk are for bitcoin addresses that already had sent coins in the past.
I am not quantum expert also, but someone with unlimited money printing could invest a lot in cracking this sooner than people expect it.
Maybe I don't agree fully with BIP-361 proposal, but doing nothing and just hoping quantum won't affect bitcoin sounds terrible to me.

Quoted.
You should clarify this part: "they must wait for at least 1 week to 1 month after requesting the refund". It looks like a month, but technically it's just a week you're guaranteeing.
And when that week start, you should probably only start counting from the moment you've added a big red warning to your 2 escrow posts, a new post in this topic, and a (neutral) feedback on OP to make absolutely sure people see it on time!
I like adding the week delay before paying back, it prevents exit scam scenarios like this:
Thank you for clarifying that point; I’ll talk to him so he can phrase it more precisely.

You should have used a new account with Copper Membership for this. That would have allowed you to base the name of your website on something that makes more sense than an old farmed Indonesian account.

For the record: if you share when exactly you became the owner of this account, I can leave you neutral feedback so there's no doubt about it.
I have been using this account since March 8 2026.


Дальше, вместо того чтобы цитировать каждый пункт по отдельности, я хотел бы выразить огромную благодарность за то, что вы протестировали наш сервис и подробно указали на его недостатки; только так мы сможем доработать наш сервис и сделать его лучше.


Based on feedback from other users, I’d like to thank everyone for their comments. We’ve taken all your feedback into account and truly appreciate it. We’ve already implemented most of the changes based on your feedback and that of users from another forum; rather than quoting your posts, I’ll list them here.

Here are some of the changes we’ve made:
1) We have extended the domain’s validity until 2030
2) We have added a warranty statement to the request page
3) We have implemented the ability for users to delete their own requests
4) We have displayed the amount in dollars on the request page
5) We have increased the payment window from 30 to 60 minutes
6) We added the number of confirmations required for the selected coin to the app
7) We implemented a QR code in the app

We are also working on the remaining suggestions received from users.

As for the coin pool, we will be expanding it soon to include other coins (in addition to XMR)

Freezing UTXO seems like thin line to dance on.
I'm not really looking forward to seeing 6.7 million Bitcoin dumped on the market. It's going to be one hell of an altcoin season if that happens.
I doubt they would want to dump everything once that would be stupid
It would be slow and I don't see it been in the hands of an average man.
It's like picking losing the coins forever and making Bitcoin total supply lower
And Letting it be and increasing Bitcoin circulating supply thereby affecting the price
But Not Your Keys, Not your coins I guess

The question is who is going to have early access to QC, who is going to control and for how long before it became a public tool. What if the government gets to decided who use QC? This are rhetorical questions that need to be fix before QC becomes powerful to break Bitcoin.

The Bitcoin community atmosphere is tense now but if people are objecting this proposal, what's the best alternative to make Bitcoin bullet proof to QC. We can't bring a proposal with "hope", its better to do something we can control. The same people that are wailing calling Lopp all sort of name will be the first to complain if the market is dump tomorrow.

I'm more concerned about people that hold Bitcoin and wouldn't transition even if there is deadline when existing signature becomes invalid than Satoshi wallet some people are using for excuse.

Can you elaborate on this? What did I miss?
I wrote about this before, and you can find plenty of information avaialable online, but proton is openly working with authorities and exposing.
In March 2026 Proton Mail provided payment information for an account linked to the protests in Atlanta to Swiss authorities, who than sent those information to FBI.
Few years ago they sent Spanish authorities information to reveal identity of owner, and before that they sent information to French authorities.
They are also known for canceling service to people without any explanation.
And I am 100% they are spying all IP addresses and transactions connected with their bitcoin wallet.
