    My perfectionism (and ironically lack of attention to detail) caused me to burn about $700,000- $1M in NFTs on accident...

    So I was a big collector of the Spells of Genesis cards on the BTC blockchain back in the day, and have been enjoying seeing NFTs take off in the Ethereum space as well. I was delighted to see that Emblem Finance had found a way to create vaults to allow trading of these old BTC assets on opensea

    I jumped on board and filled one vault with an entire set of cards. It's the only full set available on Opensea that I know of. I did a second vault with only 4 cards, including a satoshicard and an FDcard- two of the rarest cards in existence, and listed them for sale.

    HOWEVER- In the description of the second vault, I listed some erroneous information about FDcard, stating that it was not divisible like the Satoshicard. This drove me crazy, so I decided to claim that vault, take out the cards, and create another vault with the accurate information. So I created the second vault, but then once it was created I noticed there was a small grammatical error (I repeated a phrase). I hadn't put any cards in it yet, and the error bothered me, so I decided to just send that vault to the burn address and do it again. So I did.

    I then created the third vault, and got the text just how I wanted. Then I went to fill this new vault with the cards, and this is where I F**ed up. I apparently still had the tab open on emblem finance for the burned vault, and I took the BTC address from that one rather than the newest one. Each card that I sent I checked and rechecked to make sure the address matched, which it did... but the vault was in the burn address. So I sent away- a Satoshicard, an FDcard, a Satoshilite, and and Ethereumcard.

    One by one the transactions confirmed. And my vault remained empty. Refresh refresh refresh.... nothing. It must be a bug, I said. But then I pulled up the address on the counterparty explorer, and all 4 cards were there. And then the possibility of the worst case scenario leaked into my brain, and I rejected it. I had triple checked! But, I looked at the burn address account on opensea, and there it was. "My" vault, and "my" cards.

    Here they are if anyone wishes to pay their respects. "Fewer complete cards complete cards...."

    They have now been sacrificed to the Gods of Stupidity. I'm very happy that it was the 4 set rather than the full set. I can only look on the bright side and realize that there are now 198 Satoshicards and 299 FDcards in existence, so my other cards are more rare. And maybe I have a tax writeoff? TBD.

    Taking an ambien and going to sleep. I'll be ok, this really sucks but I'll put it in perspective. If losing some JPEGs is the worst thing that happens to me then I'll take it.

    Minimum allowable gas fee (Gwei) under EIP-1559

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 08:55 AM PDT

    Curious, what happens these days if you send a transaction that uses a super low Gwei value ... let's say Metamask suggests at least 40 Gwei but you manually overwrite it with 10 Gwei. (And 10 Gwei would be below the EIP-1559 base fee.)

    Would this TX remain in the mempool until eventually (maybe weeks later) someone mines it, or would it simply fail? If the latter, how quickly would it typically fail?

    For context, in other chains it's quite common that people just send a TX using the minimum allowable fee (e.g., 1 sat/vbyte in BTC) if they don't care how long it will take. In most cases these TXNs will confirm at some point.

    Which feature/software would you appreciate in an airgapped OS?

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 10:29 AM PDT

    Hi !

    I'm currently working on AirgapOS, a FOSS live Linux distribution made to prevent any kind of network connection in order to maximize its security.

    Cold wallets are one of my main use case. So, dear community, which software would you appreciate to find in such OS to securely manage your crypto assets ? (This question is not limited to Ethereum of Ethereum based tokens).

    Thank you in advance for your feedback.

    Ethereum 2 vs Competitors

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 01:53 PM PDT

    How does Eth2 compare against other Generation 3 cryptos? Adding on that, what will gas prices look like following the release of Eth2? And how soon will Eth2 be launched and when will we reach the 100k+ TPS promised?

    Understanding Transaction

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 09:10 AM PDT

    Hello,

    I am trying to learn how to read these blockchain transactions. Can anyone help me understand the following transaction?

    https://etherscan.io/tx/0x9de600b05f10b7462cb27f866388557c2abb2664c8ea4c382ae77db364b52c4f

    It transferred from Coinbase to a Polygon address? Is this correct? Is there anyway to identify or contact who holds this transaction? Basically I foolishly thought I could resend more transactions to the same address as before, which was

    Interacted With (To):

    Contract 0x7d1afa7b718fb893db30a3abc0cfc608aacfebb0 (Polygon (Matic): Matic Token) that address but unlike before it did not arrive where I believed it would.

    Straight up begging for Rinkeby Eth because faucets are not working (at least for me)!

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 04:30 PM PDT

    Title. Only 1 of the 5 faucets I've tried actually sent anything to me, 0.001 RINKEBYETH, which was not enough for what I wan't to test at all. I'd really appreciate it if a kind stranger could send me some. Anything helps really, thanks!

    Here's my address: 0xbe35B10B807667F7FCd233e4deE64e7b1bBe6E98

    It’s now or never — The US has to prepare itself for digital currency

    When ethereum switches to Proof of Stake (PoS), will existing miners be able to be repurposed?

    Posted: 26 Sep 2021 12:28 AM PDT

    I'm pretty knew to crypto and mining. Right now I only have a Minidoge, and another Doge machine on order. I've been considering getting into Ethereum, but with the pending switch to PoS, I don't know if there will be any value/opportunity for small scale 'miners'.

    If this switch does eliminate the small scale miners, doesn't that sort of undo one of the main points of crypto?

    I have a feeling the Feds will go after dydx hard, them and uniswap or both prior Q4 fiscal year end (or Q4). Time to prepare. This is the big one, the hill to die on. If the glove does not fit, you must acquit.
