@AmerEmad: When you unlock the wallet for 10 minutes, you set the last parameter of the walletpassphrase call to 10 or to 600?

Hi Amer, your screenshot shows that you successfully unlocked your wallet at 10:08:33, and then it is locked at 10:08:51. The last parameter of the walletpassphrase command specifies how long you unlock the wallet: i.sstatic.net/f3LqSt6t.png The example in the help text above suggests setting 60 seconds. Is it possible that you unlocked the wallet for less than 18 seconds?

@RaghavSood Yeah, that’s fair

@RaghavSood Maybe/hopefully some secondlayer thing?

@RaghavSood I’m secondguessing whether I should have ever made that dashboard to keep track of that activity or whether paying even less attention would have been better ;)

The grey transactions all have Runes outputs

dune.com/queries/2962509/4908034

Yeah, we have been getting a ton of new nulldata outputs recently, too

I see

On the opreturns page I got:

@RaghavSood Yeah, that’s what I think, too

"Due to a bug in the original implementation of Bitcoin, the genesis block output was never added to the UTXO set and was unspendable." Or on purpose, we will probably never know

Oh, nevermind, this is actual Satoshi spends, not the million coins ^^

The Patoshi pattern is just Sergio’s conjecture

"that are known to be controlled by Satoshi." ↦ Hypothesized to be controlled by Satoshi

Sounds good

It just zoomed past 777,777 ;)

@RaghavSood Cool, looking nice

That’s one strange transaction

It would be cool to add a line for "now" in this chart! burned.money/schedule

@RaghavSood Ah, I see that’s cool

Sleep well

@RaghavSood Sounds fun, and if someone can actually help all these poor souls that misplaced their wallet backups, or at least inform about it, that would be neat ^^

@RaghavSood There are a bunch of interesting new BIPs or BIP drafts to be read, though

@RaghavSood Samesame, pretty much. Few people are asking interesting questions, lots of people lost their wallets or getting scammed, and tons of spam ^^

I’ve reached out to the author.

@gelenor Oh no, yeah, I think that is wrong.

@RaghavSood Hey Raghav, nice to see you :)

@Mercedes You did? Do you mean about the BIPs improvements?

@RedGrittyBrick Great, thanks. I converted my topic to a community wiki and folded your answer into it

@RedGrittyBrick: Hey RedGrittyBrick, what do you think about me turning this answer into a community wiki and adding your point to the list? bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/122482/5406

I guess the rumors of someone using signet coins as the criteria for getting some altcoin drop must be true

Wow, the question how to get signet coins got over 1000 views since I asked it yesterday

I think they are copying the answers from ChatGPT, though, there are often gratuitous numbers after words as if there was a reference or footnote that they just copied along

I’m seeing a bunch of "Cryptex" spam lately. They’ve gotten pretty good at writing some useful answer and inserting Cryptex (some blockchain explorer or smth?) somewhere in it.

@VojtěchStrnad: hah, I had searched a bit and thought we didn’t have that question yet, but it turns out that I even edited it 2 years ago.

@PieterWuille: I think you may have pre-emptively answered all of Hurry Walk, LeaBit, and Cosmos’s subsequent questions in one swoop. It would be wonderful if we were to establish this approach as a more time-efficient way of dealing with "please review my understanding" questions generally: Ask a better question and answer that instead.

@VojtěchStrnad Sweet, thanks

@VojtěchStrnad Your passionate advocacy made me undelete them, but in return, I ask you to aid our struggle to get rid of visual clutter by flagging at least 6 obsolete comments 😁

@VojtěchStrnad Thanks

@VojtěchStrnad: Any feedback on mic vs phone?

@VojtěchStrnad: I really enjoyed this excellent answer: bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/120845/5406

Ah, seems to work again

:(

Mh, seems like the advanced search only works if your in the "most relevant" tab, but if you set it to newest, it shows no results

The Election is linked in the Election Result post anyway as well

@VojtěchStrnad Good idea, done!

@HannahVernon: Thanks for the heads-up
