I think this is likely the biggest risk. It is probable that for quantum resistant encryption to be effective coins will need to be moved to new "resistant" addresses. So old untouched coins will be vulnerable.

Stunning.

Is there any value in an induction hob with the glass top broken? I dropped a bottle (of oil) on our hob and cracked the glass in one corner. It still worked (after a fashion) but in a fit of impatience I bought a new one.

I now have the old broken one and before I send it to the tip I thought actually maybe this can be saved? Obviously by someone more technically savvy than me.

It's an IKEA unit 70-ish cm wide, four zones, perhaps 5 years old.

Any advice?

According to the diagram, yes, but what I have been sent is actually two of the crank attachment pieces.

I've got a set of the G Line pedals, is there a way to fix the retaining thingamajig to a standard Brompton or should I just use a velcro strap or similar for the pedal when detached? I think it gets threaded into the fork crown?

Definitely - I got a BTwin for my younger boy to take to uni - £80 delivered and its a frankly brilliant bike for the money.

That came from Retrobike, thanks to a tip from someone here so worth checking.

But as I read it, it replaces the 0.15% fee for accounts under £32k, so yes it's a bit more, but not very much more.

Edit: and as frankenbike says above nearer your balance to £32k the less difference it will make.

Wheelbox available in SW13.

Sorry ... 😉

The "price" does but the "market cap" does not as it is calculated by multiplying the price by the supply. It cannot exclude those "lost" coins, as you say we can't know exactly which are truly lost, but it is clear there is a significant number out there.

I don't disagree with what you say, but it's sort of irrelevant to the point I was making - which is that the "market cap" includes coins that (almost certainly) cannot ever be moved or spent, and hence worrying about the market cap and what happens to the "money" when it goes to zero is rather pointless.

Plus of course there are vast amounts of that "market cap" that would be impossible to realise in any reasonable circumstances - such as the coins controlled by the keys on the hard drive lost in the recycling centre; Satoshi's coins; other lost coins; etc.

Zenith today ...

Why does it need to go anywhere? Most of the market cap doesn't actually exist.

But no manufacturer ever (or hardly ever, sure there is one out there!) puts a black date wheel in a white or silver dial. If it were for contrast you would surely expect them to do that?

How often do you really need the date in such a hurry that you can't spare a fraction of a second to read it?

Absolutely loads of manufacturers put in a contrasting date wheel and I dislike every one! It just seems so lazy to me, that they couldn't be bothered to find a second date wheel.

Take these two as examples: I can't believe anyone would prefer the earlier white date wheel over the later matching design:

I don't like a contrasting date wheel, always looks jarring to me when compared to one that matches the dial.
The date window I just think is a bit cumbersome with the heavy frame.

That is so nice except for the date wheel (and window) - wish they'd do a no date version but don't think they have.

GS for me as well today.

That's lovely.

It'll never catch on.

Thanks. They seem to have hired Seiko's photographer ...

Some better pictures, here: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/the-zenith-x-collective-defy-skyline-cx-edition-live-pics

Not sure if I really like it having seen the pics. Fortunately it's so expensive it's a problem I don't really need to worry about.

That's rather nice. Is it an actual model or a proposal?

Thanks will get in touch.

I'm keen - will DM.
