My first thought was that he got locked up--I don't have much of a rational reason for thinking that, but he was obviously very smart and knew it, and he strikes me as the type of guy who would thumb his nose at the stupid cops.

If he's not incarcerated, my next guess would be that he just got bored with bitcointalk and moved on. As I said, he's very bright and articulate and those gifts are wasted on 99% of people here who don't have the literacy level to appreciate them. True, he got a lot of merit in a very short period of time, which is evidence that at least some of the members here appreciated his writing, but I have no doubt that much of his output few over the heads of the ever-present throng of shitposters--IF they even tried to read what he wrote.

He also could be deceased. Bad things happen to talented people all the time, but since I don't think anyone here knew him IRL, there's going to be no way of knowing this unless he returns.

I have a strong feeling guess #2 is the correct one.

I've seen nullius posts. He really seems wants to have fun on the forum and maybe you are right that he is not getting what he wants and got bored here. because of how the current forum situation is. Tho whatever that be his lessons were properly distributed and he returns then that will be a start of a new learnings for us.

Would you mind (if possible) giving some instruction. I am really interested to know how to do it. I am using windows 10.

Thanks in advance mate.

Sure. Once I have a desktop handy (in a few hours) I'll show you.

Or maybe he is using an alt account now or maybe he is waiting for his account to go to Hero Member and while waiting, he decided to have some rest and do some works.

We can't judge him to accuse using alt accounts maybe he has a problem for his real life maybe he got to engage with allia. Grin

But besides on that, he is a good model here in forum doing a good post and share to the community and I am sure probably he has an old account here.

I think the guy just wanted to troll spammers that they should stop complaining about merit system, new rank requirements by demonstrating newbies can get hundreds of merits if they can make good contributions to the forum.

This is also hit in my mind, and now the merit system issues were reduced and he is gone for how many months passed.

Maybe he is just busy in his Real Life or he is busy doing something to help in crypto space. Base on his post history, he is above an average member in the forum and his post are way too long and I can't understand some Cheesy

.

I’m not sure if he was a REAL newbie. He seemed far too intelligent, researched & well versed in the blockchain & bitcoin. I think he was/is an alt of an early adopter who is probably still active here.

Just my guess, no offence intended at all nullius if you’re reading.

I checked nullius's profile page and found that the last active day of nullius is April 24, 2018, 11:02:30 PM.
Honestly, the guy appeared as a shooting star in the forum.
As someone said, the account maybe an alt of someone in the forum. It is just a theory, but might be a true one.

I don’t know if it has to do with it, but he had a level of knowledge well above the average forum member. And I mean a responsible forum member, not a shitposter-spammer.

I remember the first post I read of him. It was on the bitcoin discussion board and he was replying explaining a technical issue with a post that was like 1.5-word pages long. He was a newbie back then, and I think the merit system hadn’t been implemented yet. I looked at his posting history and he had a few posts but all of them looked alike.

It is sad to say it, but maybe he had too much level for this forum.

You can use tor in regular browsers if it's open in the background. It's a pretty neat workaround you should try it (it's just setting a socks5 proxy to use 127.0.0.1:9050 (a tor data port)). Then you don't have to keep logging in.

Yes I have used it quite often.. but reCAPTCHA still takes time.. just now it took almost 60+ clicks

Pretty simple open you TOR browser and check the Network setting SOCKS Host in my case its
SOCK Host: 127.0.0.1 Port: 9150

Tor Browser:

Now open your regular browser preferably Firefox and set the same proxy details

Regular Firefox browser:

That's all your cookies and histories data should be there.

But again this isn't a solution to captcha problem.

The tor browser config bit is done automatically.
You just need to configure Firefox settings only.

Yeah I've been wondering about it too, just a few months ago a Very extraordinary poster who wields two pen in both hands just appeared from nowhere and made it to get 500 plus merits. From 0 to 730 which is now available to rank up to Hero Member. But suddenly, the way he mysteriously appear was the same to his mysteriously disappearing. I've been wondering why he's not getting online these past days, maybe he's busy or something but it's not enough (I guess) to not getting online even just a little bit of time. But who knows? And unexpectedly, someone here in the forum finally noticed it too.

I feel in my guts that someone from above is the owner of this account Tongue

But not a hundred percent sure.

Why it seemed like he appeared from the blues was because of the merit system. He was active before but then the merit system brought him to light as many people were now rewarding his posts because of how informative it was. I must say the guy is good and he was knowledgeable about everything he talked about.

Yuph, TheQuin is right. There's nothing wrong in using TOR as long as you were using an existing account. Creating account using TOR might cause for the account to have Evil Points or even may lead to proxy ban.

There is as i have been facing issues using tor.

I'm never able to pass the CAPTCHA using TOR... so i gave up and have been using bitcointalk normally... also using TOR every time you have to re-login and that's really painful... normally I login with stay login option checked and stay logged in forever....

I tried getting onto bitcointalk in incognito once and it took 30+ attempts... I used to like the old captcha system more.

Mountains in my mind.

I really liked his Github Repo for Generating Custom Bitcoin Addresses. It was Awesome. I don't know why it is not so popular.

Check out his article here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/segvan-segwit-vanity-address-bulk-address-generator-2934774

I would love to see such article more and often.

their post history seemed to me to hold ZERO clues Sad

If you've read his posts, you'll know he values his privacy. So obviously, you won't find any hints.

He's always had a difficult time to connect through Tor, and Cloudflare with captcha makes that worse:

Quote from: nullius on December 04, 2017, 11:07:23 AM

For the past few days, I have been unable to even get a CAPTCHA without changing Tor circuits.

Does the NSA like to see Tor users rapidly rebuild circuits to the same endpoint?

Then again, he's also hinted the NSA may be able to hack him:

As for getting doxed, I dare Quickseller and his schizoid Sybil army to try. That’s not empty bravado: I say about that the same as I do about hacking. The NSA could probably do it to me; Internet troll canaille can’t.

Then again, from his own statement, it's more likely the NSA did it. Which means he's in some secret black site prison now, obviously without internet.

Disclaimer:
This is entirely based on speculation.

@NSA: I didn't hack your stuff. Leave me alone!

Or he just got busy IRL, creating that many high quality posts takes a lot of time.

There are really some issues in Captchas when using TOR. If you're getting annoyed with it just use a simple browser like Google Chrome when logging in to Bitcointalk.

Also read this thread, you might get something useful and guides about this captcha issues in TOR.

Don't forget to check nullius's reply, it contains some links from his Thread where you might also get more information. Doesn't visited it yet.
