I am learning about segwit and something is still not clicking for me. When a segwit output is created it looks like an anyone-can-spend transaction to legacy nodes/miners. What is keeping a legacy miner from creating a block that spends this which gets validated by legacy nodes but rejected by segwit nodes, causing a hardfork?
Hi lads, First let me tell my story and then ask an important question. First time I had entered into crypto I put 500eur in far September 2017.... I had hold it during the winter crash of that year until mid-ends 2021, got a bit more than 3k that time as I got luck of putting it out just when it started dropping. Just to mention that the only investments that worked were btc and ethereum. Then I made some other investments for really long periods in altcoins (-60%now) and I am not worried about these as the investment was pretty small. Basically 20-50eur in each alt coin.
Here is the question, this year market seems like someone tries go pull down the price before huge economic crisis, here is my question: am I the only one that that this feeling? I am thinking to put some real money for poor European country (5-10k) in “safe” coins, do you think now is a good idea?
Bitcoin Short ETF BITI goes up when Bitcoin goes down. So if I short Bitcoin Short ETF BITI, then I have the BTF ETF I always wanted?
Title pretty much says it all. Can I look at something like a google maps and see locations that accept Bitcoin? Even better, does it list whether the company or local store owner holds the Bitcoin they receive?
I would love to start supporting Bitcoin merchants and a tool to specifically expose where they are could be a great catalyst to drive business their way.
If yes, then why?
If no, then why?
Edit: thanks for downvoting a question. Makes a lot of sense! Clearly, nerves have been frayed lately.
