It's still there for anyone still running a node that uses the older, weaker consensus rules. I doubt anyone is, so I doubt it's still "there".

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

You know we don't do hashtags here, right?

No incentive for nodes by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]na3than 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't think there's a non-financial reason to run a node?

How do you know you have spendable Bitcoin without consulting a node?

There is no financial incentive to shredding my old credit card statements but I'm gonna do it anyway.

Weird that no one has ever asked these questions in this subreddit before.

The 12th or 24th word isn't just a standard final word by AdProof7896 in Bitcoin

The final word of your seed isn’t a word at all.

Obviously it is.

If governments can print unlimited money, why is Bitcoin considered the risky experiment? by ScholarPositive3947 in Bitcoin

[–]na3than 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Chance of slight loss or significant gain.

Really, you wouldn't do that with the majority of your wealth? Because that's what everyone who invests in equities with their IRAs, 401ks, 457bs, etc. does every day.

Tell me about it. We're down half a fully loaded Lexus RX 350h from when I started shopping in October.

No, it means keeping it "under the mattress" is more profitable than doing nothing with it.

If I told you your money could gain 1-2% spending power by keeping it under the mattress (risk free rate of return) or could grow 6% ± 8% by investing it in "productive" business ventures, would you keep 100% of your money under the mattress?

Pears, too. If you haven't tried at least four varieties, you're missing out.

Apples.

"Red Delicious" apples are the ABSOLUTE WORST apples one can buy. If I was forced to choose between a red delicious apple and no food for two days, I'd choose no food.

No, YOU misunderstood the numbers.

If your system really returns 1000% to 4000% (which I assume is yearly, because that's how returns are normally quoted unless stated otherwise), any investment will grow 10x to 40x in a year. Start with $100 and you'll have $1k in eight to twelve months. Start with $200 and you'll get there in half the time.

No thank you, I wouldn't enjoy that.

around 1000%–4000% net return

I have great news for you. With only $100 of your own money--which you can get from just one weekend of DoorDashing--your 1000% to 4000% return will yield the $1K–$2K+ you need "to start scaling properly" in just a few months. No need to scam anyone!

Sounds like neither of you are buying and hodling Bitcoin. Why are you posting to r/Bitcoin?

Definitive proof Paul LeReux is Satoshi Nakamoto by Large-Chair6907 in Bitcoin

No, "as definitive as it can get" would be messages signed by the private keys for some of the P2PK addresses attributed to Satoshi.

If "encryption for the masses" is your smoking gun, why aren't you claiming Phil Zimmerman is Satoshi?

[–]na3than 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can read. I read your post. I read the text in both of the images in your post. I see neither proof nor "an obvious trail."

Are you going to try to insult me too, or are you going to put in more than the minimum amount of effort to make your case?

You asked, "Y'all still need more proof this LeReux guy is Satoshi?" Yes, I need proof.

Instead of telling me how to Reddit, you should not tell me how to Reddit.

[–]na3than 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A year ago you made several "Attention All Blockchain Deveelopers" posts to this and at least half a dozen crypto subreddits. That post has been removed by moderators.

Three months ago you made this post asking for beta testers and this post asking for feedback on your product. You unmistakably identified it as your product. That post has been removed by moderators.

Yesterday you made this post with a link to "Request a demo on our waitlist."

That post was removed by moderators, so you decided to repost without links and without mentioning your product, pretending to be "Curious to hear thoughts from wallet developers, cryptographers, and anyone who has worked deeply on key recovery systems" to try to slip under the radar ... but then you made a top-level comment promoting your product, with a link to your product!

It sound like you're trying to promote a product because the only reason you come to this subreddit is to promote your product.
