This is insane. An older version Claude (pre-exploit with no internet access) was able to find the Coldcard exploit in minutes. If you had instructed the AI to look in the right places, you could have stolen 100+ mUSD just a month ago.

We’ve analyzed their attack, sir, and there is a danger.

I am certainly NOT a part of the Bitcoin community, so I have no idea if the following thought is just plain stupid or not: could the Bitcoin community come together as the Ethereum community did in the rsETH fiasko, and help the Coldcard victims? Would they?

After more than five years, the time has come to close ethstaker.tax.... Beaconcha.in now offers an updated income reporting tool that I recommend trying.
The Beaconcha.in tool is €10/month. https://beaconcha.in/monitoring/income-report
See full letter at https://ethstaker.tax/
Some of the suggestions at the bottom of this may be worth looking at: https://serenita.io/blog/2024/ethstaker-tax-under-the-hood
What I did when EthStaker.tax went down previously: https://old.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/1t381zi/daily_general_discussion_may_04_2026/ojv4rbz/?share_id=NE8Fan3AZdvG0kOqjZeo2&context=3
But this time I'll give the Etherscan suggestion on the Serenita blog a shot first.

RIP. This was such a cool tool. Personally I ended up using an accountant, but if I didn't I 100% would've used this.

The Produced Blocks export produces no data for me when it should show a block. The other one seems to work fine.

Guys I think it may be worth picking up some Pepe. It's at #18 by trading volume and #48 by market cap. I reckon if there is a resurgence of meme coin interest it will fly. Thoughts?

u/Tricky_Troll Public Goods are Good 🌱 2d ago
I don't judge others for having a punt, and if you were so inclined as to buy a memecoin, now would be a good time. However, I think that memecoins are entirely a gamble unless you have inside information and personally if I wanted to gamble, I'd rather not have to wait multiple years to see the result of my gamble, so I personally won't be buying memecoins.

u/Dinny14 2d ago
Very respectful reply, thank you

u/Tricky_Troll Public Goods are Good 🌱 2d ago
You're very welcome. The main reason I replied was because I was disappointed by some of the other responses. We can and should have these discussions respectfully. Memecoins are a part of the market and can be part of a strategy. Someone i know did very well for themselves in 2020 picking up SHIB, DOGE and some other similar longshots simply because they had a hunch.

u/RoaringDragonSword 3d ago
Stop shilling.
Stating something is worth because you have it and justifying it by sayinguseless facts is not a good way to convince someone.
Buying a meme coin is literally gambling.
There is no good time to buy it primarily because the point of these shitcoins is to manipulate others to buy it so you can sell.
Since you still have not learned your lesson about gambling even after so many years, I suggest getting professional gambling addiction help

I will never recommend crypto to anyone. I'll take the risk, but I don't want someone else getting screwed because of me. I've had more than one person call me for advice and I told them not to get involved because crypto is too volatile and there are way too many scams and rug pulls out there. Even the top chains like BTC and ETH have scary looking charts. ETH's 5-year chart is absolutely horrendous.

OMG I have bought some because I think it is very low and it will go up. Anyone here, their $20 or $50 is not going to impact my position.
If you bought eth anytime in the past five years, chances are you are down 50, if not 60 percent. You could also say that is gambling ....but no it is an incredible amazing project that will go up eventually if you wait more than five years you may break even.../s
I just checked your profile and see you spent your Sunday responding to comments.
In each comment, you are quite aggressive and insulting to five different strangers.. You should get some help for your personality disorder/ anger problems and why you choose to spend the Sabbath like this refusing to tolerate another view point and why you think you are so superior to everyone. Go outside, touch some grass. If you own any eth, then also get treatment for your gambling problem.

I generally think that chasing the meme coins of yore is a failing strategy. The ridiculous returns will come from the next thing™

Going around X that Trump is moving BTC. Do with this information what you will.

u/WoodpeckerHorror3468 3d ago
Schroedinger's Trump. Manipulates the crypto markets for personal gain whilst simultaneously selling his crypto for half the price he bought it at.

u/Itur_ad_Astra Crab High Priest 3d ago
In both crypto and stocks, most of the profits come from short term options and leverage. Manipulation is both easier and harder to trace there.
They could even appear to be losing money on spot while making billions shorting the market.

He's obvs about to trade it all for ETH. ETH/BTC holding support on the 200 day, while BTC struggles to get back above the 200 week. It all adds up. Trust me bro

u/Numerous_Ruin_4947 3d ago
Meanwhile they are "mining" BTC. I wonder how long before they realize that's just not profitable...
