    I think it's just mind blowing to know that this is a transaction that:

    • only requires 2 participants: a sender and a receiver. There are no middleman involved.

    • is impossible to censor. Nobody can stop this transaction from happening.

    • does not require anybody's permission.

    • requires no identity on both ends. Actually, it doesn't not even require a human being.

    • is unalterably written into history and this is even more so as time passes and hashes get stacked on top of them.

    • can cross borders just as easy as it can cross the internet. As a matter a fact, this transaction might just as well have been sent from mars.

    I won’t spend bitcoin until I’m paid in bitcoin.

    Posted: 03 Apr 2020 06:19 PM PDT

    I know there is a big push to get retailers to accept bitcoin, but as we all know, it doesn't work. Generally, retailers who accept bitcoin tell us no one uses it. I know I don't. The only way I would pay with bitcoin, is if I was paid in bitcoin. Until then, hodl on. In my opinion it's more important to get employers on board that retailers. What do you think?

    How we recovered over $300K of Bitcoin

    Posted: 03 Apr 2020 10:26 PM PDT

    Even though I'm in this mainly for the principle, I have to admit this movie line runs through my head sometimes when explaining to someone why Bitcoin is my personal favorite long term investment.

    Strange transactions in the mempool right now..

    Posted: 03 Apr 2020 10:37 PM PDT

    There's a large spike in pending transactions right now. I noticed in block 624299 that this address is making many small transactions of 546 sats then the remainder back to itself. They're also paying 70 sat/byte which is way too high. Currently, 2 sat/byte will get you into the next block..

    The only explanation that occurs for this behavior is to fill up the mempool (basically attack the network to try and ruin the user experience)

    Thoughts?

    Dead Bitcoin Millionaires?

    Posted: 03 Apr 2020 05:00 PM PDT

    Who are some notable crypto millionaires that have possibly left behind millions in now unclaimed currency?

    Weird question, i know but its always seemed funny to me that a persons crypto is usually carried with them to the grave.

    Good example of why you need to wait for one (or many) confirmations

    Posted: 04 Apr 2020 01:50 AM PDT

    Here's an example of a Bitcoin (testnet) TXN that will never confirm. Other than the fact that the fee looks low, for the most part it looks valid. You'd have to do a bit of digging to realize that its parent is invalid making all children TXNs (including this one) the equivalent of a voided check.

    The TXNs were exceedingly simple to create, required no programming experience and almost no technical expertise.

    is it worth it for me to spend $200 on bitcoin?

    Posted: 03 Apr 2020 06:26 PM PDT

    Hi!

    I'm an average college student with an above-average full ride scholarship that comes with a good portion of discretionary funds. I graduate next year-ish and I'm worried about the job market I'll be heading into, so I'm thinking investing now while I have passive income might be a good idea. I've about $2000 in savings currently.

    Should I take $200 out to invest in bitcoin? Anyone have advice on buying bitcoin as a college student?

    Thanks in advance. I'm not incredibly technologically knowledgeable, but I installed Ubuntu successfully despite a number of challenges which weren't my fault I swear so I think I can figure this out lol
