I'm doing some work on the bitcoin transaction graph and there's some stuff I don't really understand.
- How are there transactions recorded on the Blockchain that send money without recording what the recieving address is?
- Why are there known burn address and why would you send money to one?
- Why have I found multiple transactions in an recent block that send money back to their own address repeatedly? Block 844035 FYI.
These are all things I have observed from looking at the actual bitcoin Blockchain data. | r/bitcoin | I'm doing some work on the bitcoin transaction graph and there's some stuff I don't really understand.

I have entertained the idea of having some small change that could be used like we use dollars today. Closest thing was Opendime but I don't quite thing is the same concept.
My idea would be to create physical tokens of specific denomination 100 sats, 1000 sats, etc. that were backed by actual sats in a controlled address pool. Each token could have an address link you could check to ensure the token is really backed. If someone were to return this physical token to an entity it could exchange them for a sat transfer, but since the amounts would be small it won´t make much sense to exchange these all the time as it would be used as pocket money. Of course this doesn´t replace the idea of bitcoin and you would have to trust a third party that would guarantee those sats, but it would allow for off-chain transactions that don´t really need them.

I remember a friend telling me about Bitcoin back in 2011 so I got online to find out more information, checked into it, took a while for me to wrap my head around it, and I think I bought some but I really can't remember for sure if I did or not. My question is, how and where would I have had to do that back in 2011? A web site or a platform or exchange of some sort? I still have the computer that I would have used to buy it back then and it works and boots into Windows. Anyone that can provide me any info on the possible "how's and where's" that were available for buying Bitcoin back in 2011 would be very helpful and appreciated. If I'm able to uncover that I actually DID buy some bitcoin back then, and if I'm able to access it, I will make the person that provides me the "how and where" info that ends up in allowing me to find and uncover it, well... let's just say that I will make that person very happy to have helped lead me to the right place. | r/bitcoin | I remember a friend telling me about Bitcoin back in 2011 so I got online to find out more information, checked into it, took a while for me to wrap my head around it, and I think I bought some but I really can't remember for sure if I did or not.

so I have bought bitcoin a bunch of times but haven't figured out where do I buy them the cheapest way?
sometimes they say no fee but I noticed when they reach my wallet it's not the same amount that a payed so I guess they just give you a bad exchange 💱 rate?
so tell me once and for all where do I buy?
and I'm not interested in P2P I know there you can get even under the cost of bitcoin sometimes but I don't like it because it takes too long. I like a site where I can just enter the amount and pay with card or PayPal and be done with it.

I’m pretty excited about this and wanted to share. I found a store that only sells organic, locally grown foods, straight from the farm. You can buy their products with bitcoin! I don’t have the right exchange BUT I’ll be taking care of that right after I post this!
Where else can we use Bitcoin in Tennessee?

I hope this is the right place to ask this. Basically in the past Ive been able to pretty easily transfer BTC from coinbase to blockchain.
However, today when I clicked on "receive" on blockchain the BTC wallet doesn't seem to be there. Instead it has things like TBTC, EBTC, renBTC, HBTC, BTCE and many others with btc in the name. as a relative rookie to bitcoin, this is a little confusing. I don't know what they are.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to move BTC from coinbase to blockchain?

Sounds like you're having a bit of a mix-up. When you click 'receive' in your Blockchain wallet, you should be able to select 'Bitcoin' from the dropdown menu. If you're seeing other types of BTC like TBTC, EBTC, etc., those are different types of tokens pegged to Bitcoin, but they're not the actual Bitcoin. Make sure you're in the right section of your wallet. If you're still having trouble, it might be worth reaching out to Blockchain's support for help. | r/bitcoin | Sounds like you're having a bit of a mix-up.

Does anyone think there would be value in that? I work in real estate and I have already adopted a bitcoin standard in my own life. I see a lot of old time landlords and real estate investors who are just bleeding money. I understand the cashflow aspect of real estate investment properties, however with current economic conditions and the trends I am seeing with monetary fiscal policy, government spending, money printing, etc... I do not see this being sustainable and I also don't believe real estate will continue to give the same risk/reward incentives to even invest. If that becomes the trend where more high net-worth individuals and real estate investors wealth flows into bitcoin, will there be a need to help consult businesses and property managers to try being open minded to Bitcoin and maybe building a treasury reserve.
Are there any non-tech savvy people who would pay just someone to install, lets say an umbrel server at there home or business so they can run a node or accept payments?

Could be sure, but based on reaction on last month ath I doubt.
If anything I'd assume the 100k USD psychological barrier could be a catalyst.
It's also entirely possible nothing will. Bitcoin already exploded in mainstream media last cycle, at this point it's old news, public interest might have already peaked.
Not necessarily a bad thing either, I'll take slow steady adoption and stable purchasing power of btc over big burst and fall any day, I don't really like how Bitcoin has become a speculative asset instead of actual currency with a well standardised layer 2. | r/bitcoin | Could be sure, but based on reaction on last month ath I doubt.

Hey. Looking for some advice and resource suggestions.
I took a punt and I bought a little bit of Bitcoin in 2016 and I’ve HODL’d despite not really understanding it a time and I did think I was going to lose it lol. I used coinbase by the way...
Now that my BTC has done well, I started to watch and learn more stuff about BTC and it doesn’t feel like gambling anymore like it did on 2016
I have most of my net worth in index funds (6 figures) and it’s surprising up 40% despite the 7% average (I know this can change next year) but “it’s time in the market” what counts as we all know, with that being said, I don’t want to dip into this fund despite the risks of it being “fiat”. I know that those 6 figures into BTC would have liberated me by now financially but easy to say that upon hindsight
I haven’t really stacked or DCA’d into my Bitcoin, it’s been idle, but now that my new business is starting to see some traction. I want to contribute to my Bitcoin stack as frequent as possible
I don’t want to have hundreds of resources to learn from, so please, tell me your one go-to:
1- Bitcoin YouTube channel to binge
2- Bitcoin book that is the go to bible
3- Bitcoin podcast
As much as contributing to my index funds is very sensible. I do feel like Bitcoin has the potential to become significant especially when the rest of the world jump on board
Also, should I contribute to coinbase or should I be using a better platform?
Thank you for suggestions and hope we all become stinky rich

Complete crypto idiot here, looking for hot wallet recommendations.
I've used Samourai for years, for the rare occasions when I need to send/receive btc - I never hold more than $200 worth of coin at any time, so I haven't bothered with higher security options like cold wallets.
I need to make another transaction soon, so I checked my Samourai balance and that's how I found out about the whole US government thing.
I imported my wallet to Sparrow for the time being, but I have no clue how to configure a bitcoin core node, so I connected via public server. Which, I'm told, means zero privacy.
And privacy matters to me.
As I have literally no time to immerse myself in crypto security documentation this week, can you please recommend the least un-private hot wallet for an absolute cryptidiot like myself, purely for the purpose of receiving/ sending a small amount of coin this week?
I promise as soon as I have time I'll do the work and figure out cold wallets and air gapping and nodes and stuff. Just looking for a quick and easy way to execute a couple of tiny transactions which I'd prefer to keep as private as possible.

I bought some BTC on an exchange and I was wondering if I can send the btc amount via lightning to a lightning wallet like Blink and then send from my lightning wallet to my standard on-chain address. Is that doable? | r/bitcoin | I bought some BTC on an exchange and I was wondering if I can send the btc amount via lightning to a lightning wallet like Blink and then send from my lightning wallet to my standard on-chain address.

Hi, I have been thinking of moving my crypto (mostly BTC) from my Coinbase wallet to a cold storage one. After watching some videos, I liked the Tangem wallet. It seems to be a good compromise between user friendliness and security, apart from one thing. I don't like the fact that the seed phrase is generated on one's mobile phone., which could be infected with malware, for example.
Is there another way to generate a (mostly) offline Bitcoin wallet? I don't have a completely offline PC. I have an old desktop which is mostly offline, but occasionally I do connect it to the internet. I would be grateful for any advice. | r/bitcoin | Hi, I have been thinking of moving my crypto (mostly BTC) from my Coinbase wallet to a cold storage one.

Hi there, I'm Venezuelan living here, crypto enthusiast.
Because the really low electricity price Venezuela has been a "good" option for mining crypto (no law is one of the disadvantages), last months the power failures and outage has increased a lot (I usually get service 16h daily, so 8h power blackouts usually in two rounds).
*As I always like to point the economic situation, monthly minimum wage is around 3 USD and with bonuses and things you might do 100-120 USD monthly, average wage should be around 150 USD monthly!*
So government took the decisions to shut down all the mining farms, remember this is a lawless state if you aren't OK with that they might just put you in jail and/or seize all your machines.
There is only one electric company (state owned of course) called CORPOELEC.
Last week they changed the president of CORPOELEC, which was a military (yeah, of course!) some people say he was getting some bribes to allow the mining farms.
I'm sure there is people mining at home (maybe 1 machine could go unnoticed) but big scale operations aren't anymore.
This is Carabobo state governor showing one mining farm: [https://x.com/ReporteYa/status/1791648681818570978](https://x.com/ReporteYa/status/1791648681818570978)

For those who don't know, an ISA in the UK is an 'individual savings account', and the 'stocks and shares ISA' type allows you to invest up to £20k per year tax free. And there is no catch to the system (correct me if I'm wrong).. you can sell whenever you want etc.
There isn't an approved BTC ETF in the UK yet. And to me it sound too good for it to become a reality.
PS. I know that this goes against the 'not your keys, not your coin' principle, but many ISA providers are probably safer than the average private key holder.
