Dude, I have four kids and make 250K a year as an executive director in a major banking concern.  I have 6 direct reports and an org of over three thousand people.

So, wrong.

Maybe you're just a retard who can't walk and chew gum at the same time?

""It's a bad practice for you to memorize your seed phrase because if there's any accident that affects you head, you might lose your memory and your seed phrase is gone likewise your funds.""

At least read the post before commenting.  Don't just read the title and then type a knee-jerk response.

Yes I Memorized My Seeds

Yes I memorized my seed phrases. 

Of course I have them backed up as well.  All the typical ways.  But my PRIMARY way is my memory.

Anyway, this is how I did it. (I'll use a 12 word seed as an example, but I actually did it with a 24 word seed phrase).

FIRST, I wrote them down (of course).  Tried to repeat them back.  Failed of course.

Then I split them into three four-word groups.  Wrote each group on a notecard.  I concentrated on learning the first group of four. Once I could recite those four words back, I went on to the second group. And the third.

Woke up the next morning, could only remember the first group.  Repeated the exercise.  Over and over.

Finally, when I had burned all three groups into my memory to my satisfaction, I made a new set of three cards.  This time with only the first letter of each word.  So, each card had only four letters.  This enabled me to further burn the words, with repitition, into my memory.

I tried repeating (in my head) the full seed every morning upon waking.  If I failed, I consulted the cards with only letters.  If I still failed, I went to the cards with the full words. 

Eventually I really no longer needed the card with the words.  So I burned those, and created a single card with four letters, the first letter of the first word of each group. 

I went on, repeating (in my head) the full seed every morning upon waking.  If I failed, I consulted the single card with only four letters.  If I still failed, I went to the three cards with the four letters each. 

Rinse and repeat.

Eventually I no longer needed the three cards with four letters each.  I burned those.  At that point I only needed the single card with four letters, the first letter of the first word of each group. 

.............

I still repeat my seed phrases in my head every morning when i wake up, and havent had to look at that single card for a loooong time.  It's also been burned.

Anyway, that's how I did it.

How do you keep the process fun when the initial thrill starts to dip?

That's the rub, isn't it?  I have no ideas.  I just kind of forced myself to write every night before bed.  Sometimes I'd only do a few lines, but sometimes I'd get into a groove and write for hours.  I'd get a spark and off I'd go.

This is a funny thread.  If it can break bitcoins encryption, it will have already long taken control of all the nukes on the planet, all the biolabs, everyone's bank accounts, etc.

In other words, we won't even notice.

Bitcoin is AGAINST centralized power

And that's why right wingers like it, as they are mostly against centralized power, too.  Less regs, less taxes, less government intrusion, etc.

It is the left wingers who want to control everyone.

With this, there is no anonymity in such system as you are looking for.


Again, not true.  I bought btc yesterday without KYC at around 5 percent.

It depends where OP is, but as a blanket statement, what you said is simply not true.

Re: Which of the BTC wallet should I choose?

Paper wallet is good but old and if not properly store might be lost to damage

You don't have to keep "paper wallets" on paper.  They never have to go on paper at all.

OP

1. Buy old phone.
2. Return to factory default, put on strong password.
3. Turn off wifi, BT, etc., turn on airplane mode.
4. Download Ian Coleman's tool, put on newly-formatted usb stick.
5. Put tool on phone
6. Generate your wallet in the tool.  Write down and save seed phrase.  Put extended public key onto the usb stick.
7. Create two SW wallets on your PC. (I use sparrow because it can connect to my node, but you can choose your own)
8. On wallet #1 import extended public key from the usb, and destroy or reformat it.  This will be your "watch" wallet.  This is where you will generate public keys so you can get btc.
9. On wallet #2 put a few bucks worth, just so something is there.  This will be your "spend" wallet.
10. When you need to spend btc, open the phone and copy one of your private keys manually in the "sweep private key" function of sparrow  (from an address with some btc on it, i never put more than a thousand or so on each addy). Make sure to put in a date before the transaction date of that address.

Now you can spend what was on that particular address.  If you ever get hacked, they will get only the money from that one address and not the rest of your stack.

Bitcoin ATMs are the worst that you should ever think of

My whole stack was built on atms.  I pay around 5 percent, can buy up to a thousand a day with no ID or phone required.  Yes, they probably have my picture, but my money is earned legally and I save all receipts.

I just wanted non-KYC because I'm an ornery cuss.

No way in hell would I risk some sketchy p2p thing at the moment.  I'm fine with paying percent.

No.

Probably yes.  If it goes to ten I'll definitely be living on a boat off the south of France.  Maybe retired, maybe not.

It just sucks that this economic/political decision has stopped (for now) bitcoin's journey to more aths.

Stuff like this affects the value of investments.  It always has.  This is not a new thing you're seeing.

I'll start using bitcoin as a currency when I start getting paid in bitcoin.  Until then it's a store of value. 

That said, if it goes to a zillion million, then yeah I'll get me a yacht with it.  But it's too dear to me right now to use it for something like lunch.  I'll use ever-degrading fiat for that.

Re: Is This A Good Idea? New Bitcoin Pricing Model - Pricing In Sats

Do you think pricing by sats is a good idea?

No.  Come up with a name for one tenth of a bitcoin and use that.  .1 bitcoin right now would cost 11 thousand dollars thereabouts.

Re: What year will the last bitcoin be mined?

What I mean is, if everything remains about the same as it is now, and people keep mining even though their reward is small for finding the next block, what year will the last bitcoin be mined?


Cool

If you just googled "What year will the last bitcoin be mined?" you'd have the answer faster.
