Please nuke Newbie huynhnhatlinh, he copied my post:

That's because it's still experimental and there is a chance to lose all funds you put in there.
I'm curious to see how this will develop in the future: if many exchanges support LN, I see no reason to keep any funds on a non-Lightning hot wallet anymore. It will be directly from on-chain cold storage to LN and if needed back to on-chain cold storage. Wink

This member Adine.lablab deserves to get banned copied and pasted his/her reply from a mining guide site called bitcoinmining.com


Adine.lablab's post

Where do bitcoins come from? With paper money, a government decides when to print and distribute money. Bitcoin doesn't have a central government.
With Bitcoin, miners use special software to solve math problems and are issued a certain number of bitcoins in exchange. This provides a smart way to issue the currency and also creates an incentive for more people to mine.

Newbie Katebell001 is no doubt a scammer: he copied a testimony for one service and changed the service name to something else. That's as untrustworthy as it gets.

I'd like to share my positive experience with recovering lost password of my wallet.dat file (btc-core client).

Let me start from beggining, but I'd try to keep it short story.

Copypaste plagiarist and probable bot #1840335 “Abrham1123” (reported to mod and archived for reference; list of recent posts archived for reference):



who creates testnet coins?
You. Your wallet can mine it. Anyone who cares to keep the test environment alive.

If they have no value, I'm sure there would be no incentive to mine them
The incentive is the safe testing environment.

- so where exactly do they come from? Who holds them, and why?
From mining. Anyone can hold. You can get 50+btc testnet coins if you like.

What is the testnet supply cap?
Same as BTC

why doesn't the testnet coin immediately gain some form of value (since it is scarce and acts exactly like BTC)?
Because it's only for testing. No one will accept something that can be reset, recoded or rewritten at any moment.

On average, it takes about 10 minutes to find each block. The average block time can actually be slightly shorter or longer depending on if the total hash power of the Bitcoin network is growing or shrinking. Ignoring this detail though, this is why 6 confirmations take about 1 hour on average.

Few places in the world accommodate profitable cryptocurrency mining. With most governments not taking kindly to Bitcoin, there are fewer locations available. In Canada, the Powerview-Pine Falls are suddenly of great interest. More specifically, the community of 1,300 residents has seen an influx of cryptocurrency miners. It is a surprising turn of events, yet a welcome one for the small town. Since there is no real use for the power line, it was never fully decommissioned either. The mayor admits most people forgot it was even there to begin with. Luckily, it now gets a second lease on life thanks to cryptocurrency mining firms. Low temperatures and hydroelectricity in abundance create a profitable environment for these types of ventures. With the value of Bitcoin and consorts soaring, cryptocurrency mining has become a lot more popular. Especially Chinese operators show a big interest in this particular location. Bitmain is rumored to be in talks with the Quebec authorities to set up hop. Toronto’s own Hut 8 mining Corp is also involved in some discussions as of right now. All of this is positive news for Powerview-Pine Falls. A new type of heavy industry will create new jobs and put old infrastructure to good use.

For now, nothing has been set in stone yet. There is a healthy mix of operations, both large and small. One firm even offered to sue all of the available electricity and pay good money for it. Whether or not any deals will be inked, remains to be seen. It is an exciting opportunity for Powerview-Pine Falls, although it remains to be seen what the future holds. Its hydroelectricity and dedicated infrastructure certainly make for an appealing location. Additionally, more jobs can only be considered to be a good thing as well.

In Canada, the Powerview-Pine Falls are suddenly of great interest. More specifically, the community of 1,300 residents has seen an influx of cryptocurrency miners. It is a surprising turn of events, yet a welcome one for the small town.

One has to keep the brief history of Powerview-Pine Falls into account. The city used to provide a lot of jobs due to a local paper mill. When it shut down in 2009, a void was created, resulting in 250 unemployed individuals. Additionally, the tax base took a massive dip by as much as 40%. Recovering from such a situation is never easy. However, the transmission lines providing 84 megawatts of electricity to the town.
Powerview-pine Falls is of Great Interest

It is not surprising this has caught the interest of cryptocurrency mining firms. Since there is no real use for the power line, it was never fully decommissioned either. The mayor admits most people forgot it was even there to begin with. Luckily, it now gets a second lease on life thanks to cryptocurrency mining firms. Low temperatures and hydroelectricity in abundance create a profitable environment for these types of ventures.

Off course I will maintain in disclaimer, that where I posted this article first and direct link to that forum.
I can't speak for the Mods, but I think this should be okay. If you can establish some sort of proof that the other forum's account belongs to you, it's by definition not plagiarism.
You should include a link and short explanation to all copied posts, to avoid confusion. Or just use quote-tags anyway.

Users James Newman and Damian Banks, both registered at the same time, both simultaneously copy-pasting from /r/btc FAQ:

The original Bitcoin client didn’t have a block size cap, however was limited to 32MB due to the Bitcoin protocol message size constraint. However, in July 2010 Bitcoin’s creator Satoshi Nakamoto introduced a temporary 1MB limit as an anti-DDoS measure. The temporary measure from Satoshi Nakamoto was made clear three months later when Satoshi said the block size limit can be increased again by phasing it in when it’s needed (when the demand arises). When introducing Bitcoin on the cryptography mailing list in 2008, Satoshi said that scaling to Visa levels “would probably not seem like a big deal.”
This is a question we are seeing a lot of since Bitcoin hard forked on August 1, 2017. Bitcoin Cash (symbol: BCH) is just a newer version of Bitcoin that split in August in attempt to solve the scaling problems that have been plaguing Bitcoin for years. At it's core Bitcoin Cash is just a continuation of the Bitcoin project that allows for bigger blocks which will give way to more growth and adoption. You can read more about Bitcoin Cash in this mega thread or learn the difference between legacy Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.

Not only is he copy-pasting, he is bumping up ancient threads.


Yes of course the crypto currency has reached a new record. It is due to the high confidence, investing and trust of the people of the world. ifpeople would not take any interest then the price of the bitcoin will not so high.

And it will increase more and more with the passage of time and then it will make record as high as no other crypto currency will even think of reaching to that position.

I think this is so because of the awareness among the people and the concept of virtual currency. Those who know about crypto currencies and their uses have started investing in bit coins as it is the most stable and exponentially growing currency in the digital market. And a lot of investments in it has taken the crypto currency market to the new records.

Bitcoin clocked six-day highs above $9,000 over the weekend, but a long-term bull market revival may not be on the cards, yet. Having clocked a high of $9,070.64 on Saturday, prices again fell back below $8,000 briefly on Sunday before climbing again. CoinDesks's Bitcoin Price Index (BPI) was last seen at $8,772. The cryptocurrency has appreciated by 9.70 percent in the last 24 hours, as per data source CoinMarketCap. Bitcoin (BTC) is also close to 40 percent above last week's low of $5,947.40. So has the cryptocurrency bottomed out?

One uses of bitcoin is to transfer money, Bitcoin is more efficient and cheaper way to transfer money across borders, and several remittance startups make use of this feature. Bitcoin’s cost and speed advantages, though, are being eroded as traditional channels improve (and the network’s fees continue to increase), and liquidity remains a problem in many countries.
Also, a number of large and small retailers accept the cryptocurrency as a form of payment, although reports suggest that demand for this function is not high.
when you hear about bitcoin “mining,” you envisage coins being dug out of the ground. Bitcoin mining is similar to gold mining in that the bitcoins exist in the protocol’s design (just as the gold exists underground), but they haven’t been brought out into the light yet (just as the gold hasn’t yet been dug up). The bitcoin protocol stipulates that 21 million bitcoins will exist at some point. What “miners” do is bring them out into the light, a few at a time.
They get to do this as a reward for creating blocks of validated transactions and including them in the blockchain.

Crypto investors are seeing red this week. Bitcoin plunged to two-month lows on Thursday, dipping below $9,000 for the first time since November. At the time of writing, Bitcoin had bounced back up to the $9,200 level, down from weekly highs just above $12,000. This week has seen coins across the board in the red — a sign that investors are jumping ship to fiat currencies this time instead of swapping into altcoins as we’ve seen in the recent past. At the time of writing, the total cryptocurrency market cap weighed in at $459 billion, down from January highs around $830 billion. It’s a contraction to be sure, but not a low for the last 30 days (that low came on January 18).
Cryptocurrency die-hards expecting the price to bounce back, even partially, will see these tanking numbers as the perfect entry point for getting in low and maximizing gains. Late speculators who got in during the mass crypto hysteria of the holiday season aren’t likely to have such steady hands, a factor that’s likely contributing to the slide.

I was thinking about the times my browser crashed, and I had to start typing my post again. I can imagine overlooking a post that went through that way.

It's just pure lazy sig spam. Not much different than copying someone else's post really and if you see his feedback from yahoo it's not the first time he's done it (though he's deleted that post). If you go through his posting history you'll likely find more but they're all one/two liner shitposts anyway so I don't think he deserves any mercy here.
He didn't have red trust from yahoo yet when I posted this (yahoo refers to the same 2 posts).
I agree he won't be missed.
