Bitcoin is the currency of the Internet: a distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money. Unlike traditional currencies such as dollars, bitcoins are issued and managed without any central authority whatsoever: there is no government, company, or bank in charge of Bitcoin. As such, it is more resistant to wild inflation and corrupt banks. With Bitcoin, you can be your own bank.
Wallet of Satoshi is now going full non custodial by implementing the Spark Protocol. If you want to keep using WoS, you have to generate a Spark key either with them or any other Wallet that has Spark implemented. The Spark Protocol allows you to use the Lightning Network, but you own the keys (normal lightning you dont) submitted by /u/FunWithSkooma [link] [comments]
Very painful guys. Finally accepted my fate, but how unlucky can someone be? FTX & CC hack took 6 years of stacking away from me. Should have bought a car instead. Anyone in similar shoes and still stacking? submitted by /u/BPC5415 [link] [comments]
Considering the decreasing return every cycle and the decreasing drawdown every cycle, what is your realistic progression of bitcoin in the 2030s? It’s been a mathematical regression until this point and I can see one more cycle going to the 170 k - 200 k usd by end of 2029 but the drawdown of 60 % would likely have bitcoin at around 90 k in 2030 and the next cycle after that will likely only go…
I'm trying to switch from Coldcard Q to Blockstream Jade Plus. But it's difficult to enter a lengthy passphrase in small Jade Plus with two keys, and I'm afraid I'll type something incorrectly and create a wallet that I can't get back. Is it okay to create a seed with dice and enter the seedphrase and a passphrase both in Coldcard Q and Jade Plus, connect coldcard Q to Sparrow in QR airgap mode,…
I've been building a trading platform for retail traders, and I'm at the point where I want to get some honest feedback from people who actually trade. The idea isn't to build another “magic trading bot” or sell signals. The problem I'm trying to solve is the amount of work and decision-making scattered across different tools when you're trading. My current workflow looks like this: 1. Daily…

Looks like approximately 70 day until a new bottom is set as we teeter on support in the low 60’s ..,it’s going to play out like if did last time. Would not be surprised if if went as low as 47-49k before moving up to 230-250k by Sept 1 +/- 14 days Oct. 6, 2025 → Sept. 1, 2029 = 1,425 days.) **• Previous cycle high:** November 11, 2021 **• 2025 cycle high:** October 6, 2025 **• Elapsed time:**…

I believe keeping cryptocurrency on centralized exchanges is actually a solid choice. The barrier to entry for cold storage and hardware wallets is extremely high, and a single moment of carelessness can leave you vulnerable to hackers or costly mistakes. Just look at the recent on-chain transaction where a user lost a fortune due to a massive fat-finger error on gas fees. I know the…

Before the hack their marketing frontpage (using last snapshot pre hack event, July 13, 2016) in page was using: "harder to fake" "real to survive real mistakes" and treated dice-roll entropy as an optional extra for the truly paranoid, even saying that if not done right could be risky. After the +$100M was stolen because most users didn't roll dice, that same language quietly has been modified in…

Posts on that subreddit are genuinely in confusion this week at how the price hasnt crashed. when Bitcoin’s price doesn’t move the way they expect, they assume something weird is happening. they cannot wrap their head around value if they can’t do anything with it, intrinsic like land property or machinery. many midwits on there “short circuiting“ rn that the price didn’t tank submitted by…

Rodolfo Novak is is doing still many nasty things presenting himself as neutral educator through several proxy websites that he does not discloses clearly to visitors that he is the maker of a Hardware Wallet. (Funny enough not even a small update on how a bug in a hardware wallet firmware can drain your funds?) If regulators in USA and Canada will not take a step over users that were mislead by…

I just bought Bitcoins for the first time yesterday from Kraken but so it's tied to my identity. I do not wish to have bitcoins publicly tied to my name as the privacy is the fundamental of the cryptos, so i would like to anonymize it, I saw what happened to Samurai/Tornadocash getting persecuted and it's sad so unusable protocol now. Where do you make your bitcoins private? (It's not a tax…

It’s been 10 year of stacking. Just over 10BTC. With an average buy price right at $5700. All for some stupid house for these dumb ass kids and this wife thing I got hanging around. I know this was the whole point of it all but man it’s like losing a friend in a way. BTC has been around than a lot of my relationships I currently have. I’ll still stack but man am I sad. submitted by…
