Both Coinjoin and Lightning come with limitations when it comes to achieving completely untraceable transactions. Monero has some fancy encryption stuff going on under the hood to keep things extra confidential.…

I reckon some type of stablecoin's gonna stick around, no matter what happens with central bank digital currencies. We still don't really know what CBDC's gonna look like or how itll work. And will everybody actually be…

I believe the transaction can be rebroadcast indefinitely, and it may never get confirmed. Contact the sender and asking if they can bump-up the fee. If that's not an option, there's not much else you can do, especially…

The government would find it practically impossible to implement it, even if that were true. There is nothing more to it than just a FUD.

There's not really a good reason the destination address would get switched unless you got malware or something. Maybe just show us the transaction details so we can see everything that happened. As long as posting that…

If you ask me, using air conditioning to cool a side room instead of the garage itself might seem silly. You should think about efficiency. The goal here is to get rid of excess heat without spending much money to do it…

Was that even a thing? I always thought you needed the Bitcoin software installed (it was called Bitcoin-Qt at the time) to be able to solo mine on a PC.

A 2-hour block is not unheard of, it has happened before. According to u.today, 2021 also recorded one of the longest times between two blocks in almost 10 years. It took 122 minutes to mine block 679,786. Read more on…

How is this different from Monero or Zcash? They're already established privacy coins with tons of users. What makes SBB the better option? This whole post talks about privacy and security, but it's all vague. Tell us…

Stupid? Definitely! But also a bit unlucky. He probably did not expect the power company to deliver such a shocking performance.

Wow, that's quite a situation! Those super cheap electricity prices gotta be bringing in some monster crypto mining operations. Makes me wonder: How often do people around there end up setting up mining rigs in their…

Yes, there are paid services to speed up an unconfirmed transaction (for example, ViaBTC offers both free and paid service), but unfortunately the amount of your transaction is too small to be worth it. I think it is…

No, it doesn't work like that. how can you sync your wallet with the blockchain if you don't enter a password? But another problem is that your transaction will not be automatically broadcast to the blockchain just by…

Hey Joe-Bloggs, the process you laid out for using an offline wallet doesn't actually get you any of the security benefits of keeping a wallet offline. You're just kinda shuttling the wallet file back and forth between…

This is actually a great suggestion! Many of us have made some stupid mistakes or witnessed some stupid mistakes that newbies make and lose their money. OP, if you are not sure about what you are doing, it is better to…

Yeah. It'd make for an amazing Christmas in 2024 if Bitcoin hit $100,000. The way Bitcoin took off this past year, I can see it marching steadily skyward the next couple years too. But it's anyone's guess. Bitcoin's…
