• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

What sort of cost is it to take an online class like that?

$3500 - but at the end you do get a certificate. I know thats probably worthless, but if you were ever looking for a job it could be worth something.

There are 4 different courses I believe all related to blockchain technology and you have to do them in subsequent order. You have to finish the first one in order to get to the next one. There are 4 different 2 week sections .... The total for all 4 subsections is $3500

Any thoughts or advice on transferring a traditional IRA to an Hbar crypto IRA or is it even available?

My advice would be don't do it.

Why not just invest your taxable dollars in crypto? After all there are ways to get around paying taxes on your crypto gains. You eliminate that possibility / necessity by having it in your IRA.

Plus these technologies are so unproven, hard to justify holding it as a retirement investment.

Woah woah woah. Can you clarify what you're referring to here? Unfortunately, I don't have any realized gains since I haven't sold much, but want to hear about what this could look like

Sure, there are a couple ways that i know of. There is BTC out there that has never touched KYC (know your customer) banking. If someone has BTC that has never touched KYC then you can take a couple extra steps (getting a wallet not attached to any of your other KYC accounts) and it won't be traceable. There is a lot of this out there (I could buy this kind of BTC from a friend tomorrow if I wanted)

Another way is to mine your own currency. When you receive the currency through mining (BTC at least) it never touches a KYC account. Boom, you have untraceable BTC.

If your BTC has touched a KYC account you better be paying taxes on it (espescially if your gain is $20k +). Even though BTC is supposed to be anonymous, there are ways they can track accounts through process of elimination and other methods.
