Bitcoin Forum

Does it work? I'm kinda curious. I see lots of bitcoin generator  videos on youtube  and I must say it looks "functional"

Sure it is.

If you believe that, I got some magic beans to sell you to grow your own beanstalk that'll create a Brooklyn Bridge to Nigeria.

Where a Prince will meet you and offer you a large amount of cash to help him recover his inheritance.

I am not sure what you mean by a bitcoin generator. Since you posted in mining subforum. I assume you mean a bitcoin miner? The software you use to mine bitcoin with your CPU or GPU?

Mining software does work and there are quite a few of them, but the days when you can mine bitcoins with CPU or GPU is long gone. You can still mine altcoins such as Litecoins with GPU, but just barely. The difficulty has gone up so much that you need dedicated hardware called ASIC to make mining worthwhile.

Hey... we had the start of a nice story about magic beans and Nigerian princes.  Why'd you have to go wrecking that by asking serious questions? :P

Ruined the momentum....FAIL!   8)

Nigerian prince said it was legit.
srsly dude, dont buy every trick they sell you.

bitcoin is quite new, and lots of profits are being made, but rise in the schemes to rip off people rise twice as much.
good thing that you asked before taking action, you should allways explore those gold mines, because if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

cheers

if you mean is bitcoin address it possible
but if you mean is bitcoin amount i dont think so a lot on youtube is fake its only client side but if you see from blockchain he got nothing
because bitcoin only can receive with mining

I have not tried and will not try
because it is not possible to get bitcoin without doing anything

I knew it was bogus but I just had to ask ;D

I just 'Youtubed" this generator…….um….I think I will go with the Nigerian prince's magic beans instead.

BTW….I have $250000 I need to get into the country, all you have to do is cash a check I send you and give me the money minus a fee for you service…….hello?... anyone there?

Damn ..I knew I should not have used proper english and punctuation, it was a dead give away

i just checked on youtube, looks fake to me

also saw this on youtube some weeks ago and they keep posting the video over and over under different user ids... wonder how many people they have scammed with this....

Looks a scam

 ;D thats crazy when people are blind by greed they will believe everything

I know

It is a scam, but imagine something like that in the future. If you will with one click get infinite amount of bitcoins. Maybe it is doable somehow.

Don't search for information about Bitcoin on youtube.

The alleged bitcoin "generators" are fucking disgusting.
I can summarize how they work below.

• 1 - They make a piece of shit VisualBasic executable that looks enticing and functional.
• 2 - They make a video of the piece of shit exe "working" which includes either a forged or unrelated bitcoin transaction on an explorer.
• 3 - They buy views and likes.
• 4 - You, a person of average gullibility, downloads the "program" from the description.
• 5 - You must complete a "survey" from a list of surveys.
• 5a - The survey you complete gives your contact information or demographics to a central server that sells it to pretty much anyone.
• 5b - The person who sent you to complete the survey - in this case the creator of the "generator" - gets a stipend, usually $2.
• 5c - Now that your phone number/email is being sold to pretty much any company, you will get spam for the rest of your life.
• 6 - After completing the survey, you get the download. It's an encrypted RAR with a text file saying the password can be downloaded at a certain link.
• 7 - *click* - downloading the password requires going through number 5 again. Then you successfully unzip the archive.
• 8 - You run the executable which, when it doesn't work, suggests you may have downloaded a bad copy or something and asks you to start over from number 4.
• 8a - Also, a VB app can do a lot. You, "knowing full well" that a program like the one you just downloaded is used for "interesting" purposes, tells your virus scanners to bug off and ignore the program.
• 8b - Well, now you have malware.
• 9 - The creator of the baloney product now has some free money from idiots like you* downloading their shit.
• 10 - They buy drugs or some shit.

No, I never downloaded a "generator" but I do have knowledge of the field (a [former] friend of mine made a Millionaire City premium currency generator and a RS 2007 partyhat generator - the latter was technically a phisher) and I sincerely hope none of you fall for this shit.
^{PS - this "friend" of mine scammed me for 0.2 BTC. So, yeah.
*assuming that you got this far.}

"functional". If that is really functional, I bet the value of BTC would only merely be a few mili cents. They are either trying to spread a virus or trying to troll you. They can be stealing your wallet or even mine Bitcoins using your computer hardware.

This thread started out really funny.

Magic Beans. LOL!  :)

On a serious note, I see those videos on youtube all the time...scammers gonna scam. Be very wary of things that sound too good to be true.

You mean it wont be the equivalent of a money tree?  My dreams are shattered, I hate you smoothie!

The only people who fall for this are those who can't read.

I just thought it was interesting question to ask, that's all

WOW! That's a pretty good description of what happens!
Stay away from these kind of programs! They can also steal your btc with keyloggers and rats!

Don't believe everything you see/read on the internet.

Youtube views/likes/comments can be purchased.

This is a scam.

I also found a lot of videos on youtube on BTC generator. But i haven't try yet.

I mean, Bitcoin generator, you ve gotta be joking. Pls tell me this is a joke and you re just trolling us.

It's like a Bitcoin Tesla Coil, only it came to fruition.  I think Helicopter Ben had one.

I'm sure scammers are just really smart people that got scammed once and try to pass it on to others.

  I can't see any sane person going on and write a scam program called " bitcoin generator " and expect people to buy that crap. but it works though.

Reminds me of those "FREE IPAD GIVEAWAY" on facebook. That has always amazed me, how hope can make people forget their self esteem and do stupid shit...

Because in this world intelligence is not require to obtain wealth.  The scammers utilize this group as their tool and are capitalizing on their victims lack of intelligence or due diligence.

make sure you always run any .exe you get from these generators and don't scan them for any malware

For anybody new to mining that was sarcasm.  Noruka isn't aware of the fact that if you say such things in this forum some user will actually do that.

Even if the "generator" would not steal the other types of coins that you have mining altcoins is horribly unprofitable.

It is a scam and a malware when download is a file called "Setup 100% Working.exe"

Basic rule for Bitcoin and any crypto currencies is that if it sounds too good to be true it is a trap or a scam.  Unlike regular bank deposits, crypto requires your own security as opposed to a bank's to keep you money safe.

BTC generator? I doubt it very much.. Hey,just my 2 cents :)

The funniest thing about these "bitcoin generators" is how easy it is to find out they are a scam so it's hard for me to sympathize with anyone who falls for this. Just do a Google search of the link before you download it and you'll find out just how ludicrous the scam is, often targeting teenagers etc, Bitcoin is just the tip of the iceberg here.

Has anybody got scammed by this?

I'm pretty sure there are some very new newbies who don't have a good knowledge of bitcoins and good security got scammed by this.

Bitcoin generator, It sounds like a shit for me.  >:(

Well yeah, they're called 'miners'... It's quite funny to find a post here in this sub-forum called... well... 'Mining'  :D

Quoting so peoples on page three can see :)

I doubt it's just for the author  ;D

Sadly this is true as there are a lot of people who simply are too trusting

It is so hard to feel bad for people that see these things and say "oh yea here we go baby". They say that a sucker is born every minute I find that to be true. I have seen it multiple times and even on this forum.

like who?

read the first page, I think it is funny

They are fake ... Keyloggers or PPD sites in which you need to pay.

Depends on what you mean. If you mean generating BTC adresses then yeah there could be, but it's better to use an offline wallet to get new adresses and be more safe overall.

There's also Bitcoin mining, you can get Bitcoins by using your PC and doing that process, if you wanna learn more just search on google, YouTube or look on this forum.

If you mean something that will magically make free Bitcoins for you then I'm sorry to tell you but that doesn't exist. The closest things are pages called Faucets, you gotta enter a captcha and your BTC adress and they'll give you a very small amount of BTC.

Don't download applications that promise you something for free, they're probably virus or scam.

"I see lots of bitcoin generator  videos on youtube  and I must say it looks "functional" . He asks if there is any working bitcoin generators because he found a lot of videos in youtube about it . Really they are fake ones.

If you are new to bitcoin, you tends to fall for the this scam. I knew it was scam

Thing is, people new to Bitcoin see this on one of the biggest social media sites in the world, and think.. "If this is real, and if people can do this, why invest?"

I will not invest in something, that can be "knocked off" / "faked" / "pirated" ..........

Or they fall for that, and they become one of the many haters. {They will never admit, they were too stupid to fall for the scam, they will just vent their negativity towards bitcoin in public, and this will have a negative effect on all of us, who know the true worth of the currency}  >:(

one of the myriads of scammer out there, don't bother

If any noob just took 5-10 minutes to read up on Bitcoin or watch a few educational youtube videos, they'd know there's no such thing as a "Bitcoin Generator".

Closest thing to a Bitcoin Generator, is a Bitcoin miner, but that's a whole other thread's worth.

Any noobs still thinking about these Bitcoin generators please visit this site first:

https://bitcoin.org/en/

Click on every link, read front to back and watch every video 10 times, and don't come back here until you know what Bitcoin is all about!   ;)

This is an infomation that I need.

As I knew,mining bitcoin isn't simple & instant , need much resource & time to mine it

lol. I always wanted to get out of Nigeria... BUT i need a magic bean to be able to get out all my inheritage as the ex prince I once was!!!  ;D ;D ;D

thanks you explained it in very detailed manner

EPIC ...fail...

I have heard about one bitcoin generator btc4gen (http://btc4gen.com) anyone used it before?

please please dont get scammed by some "generator"  ::)

That is a blatant scanning attempt, it is impossible to make 0.2BTC daily with any computer. It is just a well designed scam who target people who have no knowledge of Bitcoin. If it works, would the price still be $200?

coingenerator was  one of them, they vanished after a bit, but they paid at first, standard ponzi

My understanding is that most of those BTC generators are either SHITTY cpu mining programs or trojans to steal your shit..

Don't use them if you value your computer.

Ok, so after some extensive testings, I found out wich generator works best for me.

Kepp in mind, that I tested over 10 different generators for a month or so, but the best one by far is btc4gen (http://btc4gen.com).

http://s14.postimg.org/n5gbay0b5/btc4gen.jpg

Its not all about post count, and cant you even see its in cash already? Even if it steals, I already made over 3000 € in profit with it, because I withdraw every 3-4 days, so the joke is on you ;)

You want me to install it for you and run it for you and what? Its available for free, try it yourself. I did a lot of testing myself...and no Im not the developer. If it was me I wouldnt release it to public :)

It sends automatically every hour or so to your wallet...

Haha awesome dude :D i always thought im the only one using it. dont know why you post in public because only more people Will use it and lower the price of btc...i earned about $400 so far, trying to save for some car parts :D:D do you have skype man ill add you..

Can you stop beeing annoying? Have you ever heard of virus scanner? Gosh...

Hey yes, of course. I will send you PM with my skype you can add me.

I also think it is clear scam website. Bitcoin generator webpage do not exist, you can only mine them  ;D

If it works then how does it do so.
Can anyone say.

There is no such thing as a bitcoin generator, no matter what the proponents of these scams would have you believe.  The only way new bitcoins are created is by mining and creating new blocks.  That's it.  You can't just run some random program on your computer and have it create bitcoins.

I saw real bitcoin generators when visiting Indonesia.

I went by a school and saw like 15 kids in there teens, going like crazy on their exercise bicycles. It was hot as hell so I stopped to see what what up.

Turned out that they got a lot of high-end computer equipment donated after the big tsunami in 2004 (?). Of course the computers was outdated now but they still used them for mining, both.

To keep down the electicity bill, and also becouse they got shot off the power supplyment at times, they had the pupils workout on these bike, which had been transformed to small power plants.

A class had +40 kids, and during school hours every class had a daily one-hour long gymnastics class. During that hour, the kids did 15-20 minutes like crazy on the bikes, and then replaced by a new kid.

There were also some competition among them, but I didn't understand the system.

Odd stuff!

Bitcoin Generator is not real so don't fall for it.

How is you so sures?

For one, there wouldn't be miners mining their ass off if they could just get it for free in a "Bitcoin generator", and obvious scam site.

because you cannot generate bitcoin in this way, without powerful asic, they are a blatant scam, they are probably using the power of your machine to mine, and to run a bot-net for mining altcoin and than convert those

but you will not recieve a great amount assuming that their software is a virus that plan to steal your wallet.dat

Because the only bitcoin generator are mining rigs. They're the issuers. 25BTC/block ;)

HELLO friends, what is bitcoin mining? i m new here...

Hey there goodway, you should read some of the threads here if you are new to bitcoin and mining. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0

watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UC_8NdR1To this should give you some idea about bitcoin

Bitcoin generators don't exist, unless if you are talking about mining bitcoins. What you could do is write or find a script for a bitcoin faucet

I'm wondering, how can a Senior Member believes that shit? :D

The answer is No Comment!


How Bitcoin Generators work:

they also tell you to download a file to confirms a code, bullshit they can give you that code thre in their website, just an excuse, that shit is 100% virus

I posted that question when I was newbi which was last year  :-\

This is not the only site doing this sort of scam.
I have found this one as well.

http://www.bitcoinplus.com/generate (http://www.bitcoinplus.com/generate)
http://instantbitcoins.org/ (http://instantbitcoins.org/)

Beware guys!

These sites all work like some type of faucet, but they are all considered to be SCAM!

+1,

You'll have better luck kissing a frog and hoping it turns into a princess

bit coin generator? obiviously all of it is virus, if theres a generator the btc price maybe only $1 for 1btc XD

It's all lies and tricks dude. Bitcoin can be only mine. Otherwise, if this it will be true, now everyone will have tons of bitcoin and the reputation of bitcoin were be destroyed forever. Not everything that shine is gold.

The bitcoin generator is an innovative tool which is able to extract bitcoins from multiple mining pools. How this is possible ? As you probably know, the bitcoin has big price in the last period so a lot of people are crazy to get more and more. Because of that,have appeared lately a lot of poor mining pools with leaks and with a lot of vulnerability things. Bitcoin generator is able to connect with the mining pool databases from where will extract bitcoins every time when a new 50 BTC block is unlocked.When the process is finished you can send the amount of bitcoins to any address!

you can see at Bitcoin Generator Video Tutorial on you tube.

THIS GUY IS A SCAMMER, there is no such thing as a bitocin generator DO NOT FALL FOR THIS.

You will glady accept his offer and start a warm e-mail contact with a lady from Russia..

Wrong.  

First, you might want to understand how Bitcoin actually works.  Then, you might want to figure out how many coins are generated when a block is found -- hint it's not 50.

Even IF what you're claiming were true, then this isn't a bitcoin generator, it's a bitcoin stealer.

About time somebody brought this thread back to the magic beans and Nigerian princes. :P

are you promoting this scam? you know that this is a scam at 100%, otherwise what is the reasonb to download a file from their website at the end of the procedure to earn those cois?

i followed the entire procedure even i knew that it was a scam, at the end they ask you to download a file to verify your payment(like i said previously), why when they can simply send my bitcoin to the address that i provided?

they are just talking their way to scam you easy :)
who knows maybe it also has virus to gain access to all your accounts

I had downloaded same stuffs like this same.I.e., Bitcoin generator ". But after its downloaded and run on my PC, my pc got totally hanged up because of malware containing in that file. 

So, be aware from these stuffs.

Help me please. Link doesn't work. I have more that 13 referal, but link is broken. Somebody give me a archive may be?

the generator only works for the inventor of that generator.

i'ts fake?

You either didn't bother to read a single response to this thread, are unable to comprehend the responses you did read or are simply trolling.  Let me spell it out nice and clearly for you: it is a fucking myth, just like rainbow riding unicorns.

Hahahahaha!  I guess you really can find everything on the internet :)

If it is a myth, then why raise such a discussion?
p.s. i'm read topic with translator, i'ts hard :-(

Such a discussion is raised because just like every other scam out there, the people promoting it do everything in their power to convince you it's real.  Unless you have some counterpoints to the scammers, then people would have no other information and would believe the scammer's claims.  Even with the clear evidence that such things are as fake as the picture LiteCoinGuy posted, people will still click on them, download them, go through all the steps, etc.  Why?  Because greed is a powerful force.

We are trying to warn everyon that no such thing exists and when you see one call them out on their scams. 

This scam can be stopped, but requires constant vigilance and at least a few people doing the following everyday:

1) Within Youtube Search for "Bitcoin" and than select the <Filters> dropdown and select <Today> (Videos usually called generator or hack in title)

2) Right click and open in new tab 3 of these scam videos on the first page. (If you try and report more than 3 videos within 24 hours you are presented with a captcha which wastes your time... but if you want to do more good repeat)

3) Immediately click <More> and than <Report> in rapid fire under all 3 videos (to avoid the lame soundtracks)

4) Under "Spam and misleading" select "Scam and fraud", repeat in all 3 tabs

5) Paste a pre-prepared 1-2 statements describing the fraud/malware in rapid fire across all three detail fields and than click <submit>

This process I do most days takes about 30 seconds max when you get used to it.

Right now the scam artists make enough money conning people to pay for their views to promote their video and their time setting up the fake accounts and remaking more lame videos. If enough of us do this the scammers would start losing money and stop.

If you care about the bitcoin ecosystem and don't want the credulous to be exposed to a scam as one of their early btc experiences than you will occasionally do the above.

nice suggestion, Im one person who ever fooled by the video
I will report it now

Don't believe those. Are only scammers. Bitcoin can only be mine with the right hardware and with the right software. Everything else is false and tentative to sell fake tools.

Haha first reply was quite the zinger!!
