    Bitcoin Philosophie oder Bitcoin Profit

    Bitcoin Philosophie oder Bitcoin Profit

    Liebe Leser,
    bei diesem Beitrag geht es darum, wie Ihr Bitcoin betrachtet. Als ich Anfang 2017 zum ersten mal mit Bitcoin bzw. mit Kryptowährungen in Kontakt gekommen bin habe ich gar nicht verstanden worum es geht und es nur als eine Geldquelle gesehen mit der man so par Euros verdienen kann. Ein halbes Jahr später, nachdem ich einige Bitcoins verloren habe ( durch Scams ), wollte ich wissen worum es eigentlich geht und hab mir einige E-Books und Bücher bestellt.

    Was soll ich sagen? Ich habe die Bücher verschlungen. Vor allem das Buch von Aaron Koenig (Bitcoin - Geld ohne Staat) kann ich jedem nur empfehlen. Ich habe dadurch soviel gelernt. Wie korrupt das Finanzwesen ist und wie wir jeden Tag von den Banken und Staaten betrogen und ausgebeutet werden. Seitdem her habe ich die Eigenschaften des Bitcoins, wie dezentralität, im mein Leben eingebaut. Aber muss es jeder tun, der Bitcoins kauft/haltet ... usw.? Muss jeder der wirklich was mit Kryptowährungen zu tun hat voll und ganz dahinter stehen und Fiat abstoßen und sagen nein das ist das Geld der Banken und damit möchte ich nichts zu tun haben?

    -Ich denke nicht. Man sollte immer einen gesunden Mittelweg gehen. Kryptos sollten nicht Fiat ersetzen sondern ergänzen. Die Menschen müssen sich ändern, nicht der Markt oder das Geld. Menschen die Kryptowährungen nur dafür benutzen um mehr Fiat zu machen haben genau soviel recht den Markt zu benutzen wie Menschen die die "Ideologie" des Bitcoins/der Kryptowährungen angenommen haben. Immer wieder lese ich in Foren, dass die eine Seite versucht die andere Seite fertig zu machen. - Total Umsonst. Warum nicht einfach machen lassen? Vor allem der Markt der Kryptowährungen ist sehr frei (freier Markt). Klar können Staat und Großinvestoren Einfluss auf den Preis haben, aber auf die Funktion habe ich bis jetzt keine weltliche Macht gesehen, die darauf Einfluss hatte. Darum sollte jeder frei agieren können und keiner sollte sich gezwungen fühlen sich vor jemanden rechtfertigen zu müssen.

    Jeder hat das Recht auf gutes Leben auch in finanzieller Hinsicht. Der eine will es so machen und geht diesen Weg der eine will diesem Weg folgen und macht deshalb dies und das.

    Leben und leben lassen (Y)

    Help me to decode qr code for private key by hand

    Help me to decode qr code for private key by hand

    Few days ago I found an old post from Ryan Castellucci about decoding this qr code:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1r044r/im_curious_to_see_if_anyone_can_recover_the_key/

    Probably the qr code that posted Ryan has not enough information to be decoded, but I decided to give it a try just for fun (I know the address has 0 balance).

    I did never decode any qr code by hand, and a few days ago I didn't even know how the information in qr code is encoded.

    After reading the internet and watching videos on youtube I learn a few things about qr codes, but the information posted there are not accurate I believe. First thing to mention here is the Error Correction and mask information bits. Some websites say that the EC and mask needs to be XOR'ed by 10101, some other like wikipedia says nothing about that.

    So the first question here is, what mask do have my qr code below which has similar meta info to the Ryan's qr. Is it 111 (no XOR) or 010 (with XOR)?

    The second question is about mask patterns, these are also not the same on internet. For example Wikipedia says that the mask 111 has pattern (j % 3), but other sites tell it is (((i*j) % 3+i+j) % 2), so what mask pattern has the image below?

    I also tried to debug the zbarimg library to see if I can extract some usefull information about the scanned qr code and came to the place in code, where it says that data encoding in this qr code is: Byte encoding (8 bits per character), but after demasking this qr code with different patterns it just does not fit.

    Also it would be nice if there was some tool, that could tell all the information about qr code, for example what mask pattern it uses and all other meta information. Is there somewhere such a tool?
