Amazingly a newbie got fed up with the forum after multiple responses didn't corelate with his expectations. The guy said he memorize all 12 private keys, and within him felt everyone would clap and cheer him up, and that was not what he got. A turnround comments on losing his brain or senses, that got me wondering why the Op felt so sad and asked that his account get deleted. The expectations is self made and it's driving newbies away.

Growth in here is slow, I noticed, even so learning materials packs up all the tasks on my desk, but it won't waste or evacuate the brain I believe. Reading and writing on a jotter boost the process of sticking bitcoin knowledge in the memory. Fast and efficiently works to save time and memorize in future.

For scam awareness the site is helpful, beside that I foresee a disadvantage, only reported malicious website is listed on the website. New scam operators will at first victimize people before getting exposed.

I'm the 11th member to say sorry, I'd rather use thank you for sharing. Their technique is not questionable for freshers, it made the bot appear easy to access. You have helped thousands of readers to learn from your mistake, a good deed that not too many people would do while lamenting on the sad experience.

I just checked to my surprise the 3 smerit I had is still there, when is it going to decay? Op, do you have a knowledge about how long it takes to disappear?

What would happen with nobody interested in an escape plan? The price might stay at a more stable rate with little difference from what we have now. Unfortunately, lots of buyers are attracted to profits, and won't stop until they've gotten it.

His mail may have leaked on the net, one way the malicious team scraped the mail address. The mail template is appealing, including the money. Greedy people will be at a disadvantage.

The debate on solidifying bitcoin's base layer to resist changes from developers is a burning controversy that has no sign of a solution. What is there for the both arguing sides to gain? Today, I read loops take on this struggle and the key point the 'Unknown' he wrote few more times that the future is not yet known. The world might change to a side where the Base layer gets required for a modification. Haven read other parts of his views and other writers, I'll conclude that developers are not convinced of the right choice. The two decisions have its cons and pros.

What do you think will end the debate ? Bitcoin deserves changes, yes, why not do it on layer 2 ?

scanned through some crypto groups and found developers listing out on the requirements for the submission of a crypto based app like wallets to be successfully accepted on app stores. Rules like submitting through a corporate account for any crypto app and wallets used for holding and exchanging crypto, must give details in a paperwork on how it complied with AML and KYC, made me search for clarification here. So does this mean that any app, software or website that has to do with crypto exchange, send and receive need to approve and comply with the kyc policy? And comply to the regulation for any region. This doesn't appear to be helpful as they claim for the cryptocurrency niche. Although it limits the rate of crappy blockchain softwares being shared on app store and stop scam app, but many crypto apps that bypassed such regulations still malfunction and people get to lose their money.

Simply here to correct the use of “an" for a consonant "h" is wrong. Initially thought that it was a typo, but was amazed to see it again at the bottom line of his writing. The first sound determines whether a or an would be used before some word. Honor is a better example.

“Beginners and help" two words different meaning. I consider this board as a place where all forum members visit to learn new ideas and information that both benefits newbies as well as old members. Browsing this forum, contents here don't only focus on learning bitcoin terms, it also teaches users about newly imposed ideas on bitcoin and how it'll help forum members. New fraudulent activities relating to bitcoin also get shared here to help save forum members from getting scammed.

A lot of informational help can be seen here. It validates your idea of old members coming to seek help in this same board. Besides, I think Op is asking for a childboard that focuses on newbies alone. Because some of the contents shared here are too vague for beginners to learn. The type of help you see old members seek here may not be easy for us beginners to comprehend the jargons and terms used in the thread. This shouldn't be a problem, beginners can scan through the pages for threads that solves their problem. But, Op only is bothered about the long pages one would go through before getting the right answer. I always get surprised how users easily share links to threads patterning to the question a user asks in the forum.

I'm glad to have gone through a long read of write up on benefits that could get to me as a member of this forum. Offering a service at this level of membership is the best option, but trust is a factor. Besides what Op wrote, a response I read while scrolling the thread, left me with a better truth about this forum; knowledge. As real as it may be, the members here are thankfully happy for the information they share and receive in this forum. Which is an interesting purpose of the forum. Nothing supersedes learning and earning some reward. It helps people to always return back here to continue learning. Truthfully, the terms here are tiring to recall, but the rewards like merits is a byproduct that attracts newbies to continue learning on here.

Bitcoin is a long years of work achieved and being put to work. In previous years as you stated there were no KYC, enabling more scammers and rug pulls occuring in the market. In the few moments I've looked into this broad space of monetary investment I noticed the purpose of  government's involvement in the market is to safeguard citizen's money and help investors stay clear from infamy scammers. But, the government's hands on cryptocurrency doesn't make many changes in reducing scam projects.

On telegram lots of projects are not feasible, but made up to eat up investor's money. Please, how do you think they'll get punished on platforms like telegram? If the government's hand in crypto is stable and strong. I think more people will get interested in the cryptocurrency market. Thereby, skyrocketing the rate at which illicit players will operate, unless the government also finds a means of regulating platforms like telegram and discord. Where I have seen multiple complaints from users regarding cryptocurrency scam.

More needs to be done in framing reasonable illustrations in words for newbies like myself to relearn from their mistakes. Corrections requires efforts from the issuer or member to pass it on to a newbie, but some would perceive it as something that has gone over the line. I've read newbies who complain about how critics giveaway corrections in an annoying manner. Yet it remains a valid correction. How it was addressed or passed doesn't make any meaning, its usefulness relies on the indebt information concealed behind the criticism. Members here enjoy teaching or reading corrections tailored in this form. We all are humans, and can't get above making mistakes. I also look out for places to get useful by issuing corrections to other members, but not quite great at that. Still learning. Newbies should welcome and embrace corrections even if it came in a dirty bag.

The bitcoin node as I have been made aware adds to the decentralization of the network. looking through this article on the backslide of bitcoin node operators in updating their software. This thought sneaked in, why people who  run a software that authorize the order or mode of the bitcoin network are inattentive to upgrading their nodes. In his analysis he stated that it takes 3 years for 95% of bitcoin node operators to update their software. I don't run a node, yet, exploring and checking up on what's like to run a node engrosses me. What could be the distraction? Do they forget?

Envisioning the digital tech deeply the thoughts of privacy have died away for wants to track criminals. The privacy never stayed, staring at the responses above me. Not Trying to complicate the thread, was there ever a certain day where the network was private and people staying truly anonymous and untracked?

You mean the government will need a help of another Satoshi to set up a fresh block chain that'll be centralized before setting up their own coin? Since they won't dim it fine to build on the existing block chain due to its decentralized nature.

Read this fascinating story of a young bitcoin fellow named Jimmy who stole from silk road. The site happened to have a glitch and Jimmy withdrew 50,000 btc. The owner of silk road contacted him when it appeared to him, that 50k btc disappeared from his wallet due to the glitch, but Jimmy afforded him no help. Later, Jimmy transferred $800 to a KYC enabled exchange, and the cops were able to link it back to the stolen 50,000btc from silk road. How possible is this?

Satoshi, in his invention of the blockchain, had given us the inch, what is preventing other bodies or organization from taking the ell? Does it mean no coin hosted on the blockchain will gain mass adoption enough to bypass the users of bitcoin?

The government own billions of population, and by setting her face against bitcoin is a competitor, but doesn't seem to prove that they're a top bitcoin competitor without having a downward course in the process. Last question please forgive me, what stops them from building a coin on the block chain that'll bypass the total sum of bitcoin users, and regulate it?

Lightening network helps people with minimal payments through channels. With HSM Secret encryption on lightening network, does it imply saving of those funds on LN using the HSM password as a key to access the funds? Considering the expensive price of HSM devices would holding smaller funds on LN require the device. Could it be some cloud hsm service that's offered to the LN user or it's the hardware that's needed. I'm not clear in the case of the price of the hardware not balanced with the amount of money people hold on LN.
