Title: Cointrust.xyz site what is this site used for
Post by: Ryland R. Taylor-Almanza on April 19, 2017, 10:28:44 PM
Has anyone heard of this site cointrust.xyz?

It does have a rather strange domain so I am weary to believe in anything they have listed on the site. Even with the word 'trust' in the sites's name is often a telltale sign not to believe into what the site has on it either.
I think it's a rating system from the way others were taking about it on some bitcoin sites.
But I am not really wanting to check this from where I am at the moment not being on a secured connected system.

I haven't heard of it before, obviously. But I have visited the website, and it seems to offer some kind of a profile table to let people know who is trustworthy and who is not in the crypto community, especially for loaning.

-> Yes that domain is indeed an insecurity.But lately,reputed business have started to use it since your fav domain name is always available  with .xyz instead of paying high amounts for premium domains.

->From a rough overview of the company,they seem like a business to keep track of scammer records in the bitcoin community.

->Kind of interesting,they have an API and scammer profile archives.

->You should have easily able to figure out what they do if you read through this : https://cointrust.xyz/how-does-cointrust-work/

->Are you just promoting the site by any chance?

It does really like an advertising to me because instead of giving some reaction about the site he does make question into the public which the answer is really an obvious one and when I tried out to read up  https://cointrust.xyz/how-does-cointrust-work/ I did say to myself that they are trustable at all.  8)

Honestly we could not do anything about that when owner/affiliate promoter hiding himself as an user. I believe there will be nothing wrong as long as they are not promoting any ponzi still discussing about crypto currency related services.

I guess if they would have chosen some other domain extension for their site, they would have got much better attentions.

I am finding this similar to badbitcoin.org, maybe useful for people who are actively looking for crypto related earning/investment opportunities.

There is no worse or better domain. I evaluate service/website by its content and you should too.
Would you rather trust this site if their address would be cointrust.com or cointrust.io?
.yxz is one of new generic top-level domain names, that's all. Even google is using it - https://abc.xyz/ (https://abc.xyz/)

Despite the annoying domain, there's no reason that it would be a problem.  It's some sort of site for whether or not you should trust certain sites.  For all we know it could be a scam in itself and just paid by scam sites or something, but there's no real reason for us to think that it's not legit.

Not promoting it as patatas speculated. Just asking because I never heard of this domain before and i do not go to sites I do not trust as I mentioned several times in my opening post. So I prefer you do not put a sign saying I am sponsoring or in affiliation to this site. I thank you for your concern for the community and their clicks who go there or even to google it. Which I did not want to waste the time doing if someone who actually uses the site can tell me in less than 10 seconds of posting a response. Thanks.
But from what I did discover that it is a site by the creator of a group for bitcoin gambling whom is of the discord community.
That is as far as I have spent any time doing any sort of detailed investigation on this site and want to invest any further time into.
But if it helps someone from trusting in their so called reviews on the members of the bitcoin world then it's enough of a thanks for me I care to take.

I never heard about this site. Now I checked it and first thing that I didn't like is .xyz domain. It doesn't looks very serious and professional.
But whole website looks good and professional. It looks that they avoid fake accusations because solid proof are necessary to submit review. But as always, final desicion is yours, you have to decide does person looks trustful or not.
P.S I wanted to test "submit a scammer page", but it's not possible to submit review becauce it's impossible to solve captcha due to invalid domain key error.
