@BitcoinBrabant@COLDCARDwallet Send them back to Coinkite and demand your money back. Sue the hell out of them if they refuse. The case for negligence is clear.
Grok is a bit too trusting using the accused perpetrators as a source. All possibilities still exist including an intentional inside job that was patiently sat on for years while wallets built up higher balances. Could be a 'retirement hack' similar to what happened with the RSA 'hack' from 2011
@Rajatsoni Exactly. Only secure protocols will protect you. Not unnecessary layers of tech that can have bugs or hidden back doors. ALL hardware wallets add risk. ALL exchanges add risk.
@jackmallers@BitmundFreud Bitcoin lives on the blockchain and is not subject to the UK's jurisdiction - ignore them or it will only get worse. It's time for all Bitcoiners to hold our ground and remember why Bitcoin was established in the first place: to give govt's, banksters and regulators the finger.
You can't answer a question that isn't being asked. All you can do is wait for them to come to you and offer guidance. Then, you have to let them come to their own conclusions. And most important is to support them in whatever they decide to do. Words do not teach - only experience.
@StrangeTimes987@100trillionUSD You're right. It's not gold. It is better than gold. Gold is 'scarce' and it's authenticity has to be proven. Bitcoin is 'finite' and impossible to fake. And it doesn't care what Basel, you or me thinks about it.
Fiat "stable"coins pose the biggest exestential threat to bitcoin. They are worse than even CBDCs because they operate outside of the legal framework. They are the NGOs of crypto.
@Rajatsoni@saylor And how come @saylor seems to understand everything about bitcoin except the most important thing -Not your keys, not your coins - Coinbase custodianship is his Achilles heel.
@KurtMariano101@Rajatsoni All except for Bitcoin in which the energy invested in the network will still be powering the global economy a hundred years from now.
