Bitcoin Forum

With most users knowing Yobit having such a shady background why do members that have been around a long time continue to promote Yobit?

For users, is it simple just about monetising their banner space or are there any other reasons?

Let's start with, this thread does not belong in services section. If you'd take a look in reputation a thread on this already exists. I just woke up and am aware of what changes have been made as well as still processing and deciding the next steps to take.

Best course of action for this thread is to lock it and refer to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5211902.0 that thread for updates. Let's try to reduce the spam arising from this campaign to as few threads as possible.

Greed blinds people to the blatantly obvious - or they simply don't care & have no problem prostituting themselves for a few bucks so that others get scammed. Scam promoters are just as bad, if not worse than the scammers themselves & are the reason this forum has become the go-to place for scammers to operate.

It's about time this forum banned Yobit completely & anyone who promotes them can expect to lose whatever reputation they had, if any.

this troll is ignored me too. i don't have yobit signature LOL :D:D  and she/he is trolling my topic too, that's is why i opened a self moderated topic. what a kind of organized hatred.

i have cryptotalk.org and it doesn't pay if you don't update the sig.

what a shame..

An excellent reply, thank you for the detailed response.

I think the general consensus across the board would probably mirror most of the same response you gave though there would be no-doubt exceptions but I would like to ask others for their views to the specific questions asked in the OP so more views (in agreement or opposition) can be expressed.

Before I posted this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5212100.msg53427173#msg53427173) in your self-moderated thread, I was pretty sure you were wearing that yobit investbox x10 signature. I didn't bother archiving at that time since think I didn't you would backtrack after my comment.

quoting in case it gets deleted
 

@rosezionjohn  i have same opinions about x10 coin. it's extremely dangerous. and high risk of losing money. Also, i think most of ICO's are scam. lots of people lose their money 99  percent.

but in different case, i will test it for 1 week and i will write my opinions. i guess that price will bu dumped. its looks like a shit coin. everyone knows that. but its a guess. i m trying to understand how it works. i want to see it and write my opinions.

are we cool with that?

read the edit3.

have a nice day :)

I guess we are making things worse if yobit's intention is to scam people by creating multiple threads about yobit all around the forum which gives more exposure then their campaign with free of cost.

When someone claims that they lost their money from their scheme then its worth to tag people who promoting it but until we have no other choice than believing their words. :D

Thank you for the post and images.

Without a shadow of doubt the whole x10 investment plan is nothing more than a disgraceful attempt to lure in investors knowing that they will lose their investment which leaves Yobit as the only winners.

Nope, I don't think there are any deeper reasons than people just trying to make money. 

This whole investbox thing has left a bad taste in my mouth since I've had some time to actually think about it.  I don't like how Yobit changed their campaign signature from cryptotalk to the investbox one, which is asking members to advertise something completely different and at the very least smells very fishy. 

People might very well be tempted to buy some of those non-existant shitcoins with "investment plans" on Yobit, in which case they're probably going to lose money when they try to sell those on the market after Yobit ends the plan earlier than the person thought.  They're only going to let you earn 5% interest daily for a few days at most--and notice how you can't withdraw any of those coins or even find much info about them.  It's all a load of crap, and any lingering respect I had for Yobit has basically flown out the window in the past week.

It is very sad to see a handful of these users without any morals using any words they can trying to justify them promoting a tainted brand and for what? Just a few pennies...

I was never impressed by them and what they had to offer.

The investment plans are a great way to maximise them receiving user funds and then leave the option for them to either exit scam their way out or stay put and tell investors their investment failed.

One of my forum related wishes for 2020 would be to see no more Yobit promotion in signatures.

With the amount of money they are paying campaign participants either they are doing well making money with their scams thus can afford the payouts or they will run out of freebie give-away cash soon and shut down.

I hope 2020 will the year Yobit and those related to it stop using this forum as a tool to scam investors.

I would like to power up your wish, unity is power..

Having such an community welfaring wish on 2020 makes one an highly visionary man. Keep it up.

And a very happy new year to you !

Sadly the number of users promoting Yobit shows no sign of abating no matter what many of us say.

I mentioned in another thread that I will start creating self-moderated threads in future so I can keep my threads tidy without them being flooded with those promoting Yobit or any other scam, maybe that is the best way to confront the situation until or unless something changes.

I am not sure whether I should continue to raise my opinion on this topic.
I know many people really hate what Yobit did in the past and even in the present, but that's not all, it's not good if you create a self-moderated topic and delete all comments from people who have Yobit's signature. Personally I think that as long as we don't advertise things like Investbox or daily profit, signature still good with Cryptotalk, even Airdrop is still not a scam. So it doesn't matter if you join a campaign without cheating anyone. I mean the campaign, not Yobit

This guy's a liar and a crook. He's a slander who tries to look good to people. I don't take advice from the crass who gives false news.


Don't erases my posts, Show proof. Prove it

You could have wished for scam and spam free 2020 and not just related to Yobit and their Signature participants. They tried to promote the invest box scam scheme but they were not let them promote the ponzi scheme. Cryptotalk and free yobit coins do not directly relate to any scam. People should be knowledgeable enough to know where to invest and where not to invest.

You are right, please accept my apologies for not expanding on wishing the same for other/all scams but this thread was more about the Yobit signature campaign than anything else.

I did however mention a hope of all scams being stamped out in another thread by stating the following:

"We all should also hope 2020 will be the year the forum owners/operators will clamp down on the scammers that are using this forum as a vehicle to carry out their scams and modern day thefts by using Announcement threads and signature campaigns and promotions to spread the lies and propaganda to carry out their scams."

I have a bunch of those yovi rise only coin, i got tricked because i though that i can sell them easily later in the future but when i tried to sell i realized that only can open a sell order at a higher price and only a small amount,

So i been selling my bags since 2015, its a clever scam, they made it legit with misinformation about how to sell their shitcoin

I started a thread, I think it is my first self-moderated one and basically added that Yobit signature promoters will find their posts deleted because any newbie or gullible investor might fall victim to their scam if they see a flood of signature campaign participants posting there.

What Might Be The First Exchange To Close Down or Exit Scam in 2020?: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5215408.0

So far so good in that thread  ;D

Holy smokes!
I just references this yobit scam a bit ago because I remember it happening/starting.. I think I remembered it as the first time I knew yobit was a scam..

So you actually bought in to that WAYYYYyyyyy back then .. and ... .. . let me get this right  ... . Still selling the bags since 2015!!

That's quite incredible..

You ROI yet? How's your ROI prospects look after all this time?

I wouldn't take much notice of anything that the account fratoshi says - it's an ex-tradesatoshi shill account. Take a look at the reference thread in his feedback:

When i promoted Tradesatoshi?
Please post proof that i deleted any of my posts like you said.
I have archived this thread here https://archive.md/wip/Ol9Tk

More details (but you knew this already):

Deleting your posts from their thread then trying to bribe BCT members to remove their negative feedback didn't work either, did it.

I don't have the time/can't be bothered to argue with you. Back on ignore you go.

That link that you posted with the quote from nutildah doesn't proof anything.

1) I have never deleted any post, but i have some post deleted by the mods and i don't know why, maybe someone reported, i have no control about that, but if you are so sure that i did deleted a post when i am shilling Tradesatoshi, please post the archive link, i want to see.

2) I never promoted Tradesatoshi, someone was spamming some of the discord channels i was in with some links, one of them was that Bitcointalk link so i did some comments and continue to troll. When i did my post here i was just following a conversation from discord, i though that one of the person in that conversation was the same from the discord. If you have archived anything from me saying that i have promoted Tradesatoshi please show it here, example: "Join Tradesatoshi" "Tradesatoshi the best exchange ever" please show me where i promote Tradesatoshi.

3) Yes i bribe a Bitcointalk member, i was an old member that was away for some time and i did not know how the new trust system works, i panic a little because that negative trust left on my profile i found it unfair and i wanted to get rid of it, then after doing research i understood how it works.

-- Nothing personal IconFirm, and nothing personal to anyone here, much love and peace for all of you, the only thing i accept is the bribe, and i apologize if anyone here on Bitcointalk got hurt about it.
