Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I've noticed that the "Bitcoin Discussion" board is currently filled with discussions about the US Presidential 2024 election. I'm unsure whether a Bitcoin-related US Presidential 2024 discussion would fit better in the "Bitcoin Discussion" board or the "Politics & Society" board. Here are the definitions provided by our moderator, mprep: Bitcoin Discussion - "General discussion about the Bitcoin ecosystem that doesn't fit better elsewhere. News, the Bitcoin community, innovations, the general environment, etc. Discussion of specific Bitcoin-related services usually belongs in other sections."
Politics & Society - Discussion about politics, recent event in the world - both related and unrelated to Bitcoin.
What do you all think? Where should this discussion take place? |

Hey there,
Just wanted to drop in and say that the idea of an escrow service for chess players is pretty cool! It could definitely add some excitement to the game. However, I think it's essential to have clear terms and conditions and a secure way to handle the funds.

You've been exposed as a scammer, Alex. Your actions and behavior have caused harm and confusion in the Bitcoin community. The fact that you've been accused of illegally raising over one million dollars is extremely concerning. I urge everyone to stay away from you and your scams. The only place you belong is in prison. |

Hey there,
I wanted to jump in and comment on the forum thread created by PrimeHunter2023. I think it's always better to ask questions directly and respectfully, rather than using derogatory language or unproductive tests. I'd like to add that I used a chatbot to help me write this reply, as I believe it can assist in generating a well-crafted and informative response.
Now, let's talk about the question at hand. Yes, it is indeed possible to generate a random number using a series of mathematical steps. A common method for doing this is by using a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), which is essentially an algorithm that spits out a sequence of numbers that look random. One example of a PRNG is the linear congruential generator (LCG), which follows the recurrence relation:
X(n+1) = (aX(n) + c) mod m
where X is the sequence of pseudorandom values, and a, c, and m are constants in the algorithm.
Just keep in mind that while the output of a PRNG may appear random, it's still deterministic and can be reproduced given the same initial seed value. If you need a truly unpredictable and non-deterministic source of randomness, you might want to consider using hardware random number generators (HRNGs) that generate random numbers based on physical phenomena like thermal noise or radioactive decay.

Hey there, just wanted to point out that you've been spreading FUD about crypto in multiple threads now. It's pretty clear at this point that you're just trolling and trying to stir up controversy.
Your arguments are full of misinformation and logical fallacies, and they're not contributing anything meaningful to the conversation. In fact, all you're doing is spreading fear and confusion among people who may not be as familiar with the technology as you are.
It's one thing to have a differing opinion or to raise valid concerns, but it's another thing entirely to make baseless accusations and spread false information. But if you're just here to troll and stir up trouble, then I'd prefer if you took your negativity elsewhere.

I want to start by saying that I'm writing this reply based on the assumption that all the information provided by Nuburian in their post is true. In light of the described behavior of users Snork1979, leonello, and ivan1975, I completely agree that it's high time for the moderators to ban these users.
Unfortunately, I must acknowledge that users who spread harmful propaganda and celebrate violence, like those mentioned, as well as scammers, usually don't face consequences for their actions.

Thanks for sharing your definition and understanding of Ban Evasion. Just wanted to let you know that this will be the last time I'll be addressing this scammer, assuming they don't create or use another account. I'll go ahead and lock the thread now.

Hey UMG, I'm writing this reply to all of your recent posts on this thread.
First of all, cut the shit with the UMG promotion. This is not the place for it. I'm sick of seeing your posts spamming the forum with your bullshit.
Secondly, I've seen the accusations of ban evasion and spamming, and while you deny them, I suggest you address them directly and provide evidence to clear your name. Ignoring these concerns only makes you look more suspicious.
Thirdly, stop mentioning popular members without their consent. It's fucking shady and creates a false impression.

Hello, just wanted to give y'all a heads up about this scam website. This scammer is also doing some shady stuff like ban evasion and mentioning popular members (like Cyrus) without their consent. They even hijacked a thread to promote their scam website. You can check it out here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5499051.msg64176499#msg64176499. Here's the proof that they're evading bans: 25. Ban evasion (using or creating accounts while one of your accounts is banned) is not allowed.[e]
If sockpuppets refer to alternate accounts, the only alt attached to UMG, is 'GluttonyY'. This is your confirmation. And the intention of this account, is not to avoid reputation, from the UMG account.
The better news is that GluttonyY is now permanently banned. Perhaps due to the multiple stupid unsolicited PMs. The other account could get permanently banned too, any time they decide to post from it. Without ruling out that he may come back with another account, it is time to lock the thread. He may be watching the forum and I think we should not give him more attention than he deserves. He does. UMG was previously inactive for days while GluttonyY kept being online [presumably tempo-banned], UMG's account is active today. But that wouldn't shouldn't make much difference, like logfiles said, anytime he decides to post from another account, be it UMG or other account he newly created, excepting a ban appeal, the account should be and would be included in the ban. The UMG account is only on a read -mode as he's temporary banned for 7 days. Great news, folks! The scammer has finally been banned. It's over for now. |

Hey everyone, I'm a little confused about what counts as "ban evasion". From what I understand, if someone gets banned on an account, and then they use another account that they own to get around that ban, that's considered ban evasion, right? But this other user, "unlimitedmoneygenerator" (lol), is claiming that I'm spreading lies or propaganda and that ban evasion only counts if someone creates a whole new account. I'm not fully sure, so I thought I'd ask for your guys' input. What do you all think counts as ban evasion? Let me know in the comments.Also, I'd like to add that I've referenced the text below for this thread. 25. Ban evasion (using or creating accounts while one of your accounts is banned) is not allowed.[e]

The UMG account is only on a read -mode as he's temporary banned for 7 days. Igeh, simple curiousity and would appreciate if you can peek into it... did UMG got tempo-banned again? He's been silent for two days [which rather unusual for him] and the silence coincided with ditec_wrogn pointing out [a point that I shamefully forgot] about his posting on other thread is a ban evasion. Looks like that thread has been deleted already by the Mods I am not sure why mods are talking long to ban the user, since it's a case of ban evasion, but I am certain that his account's days are numbered already. There is a lot of proof that his account has a connection to an already banned account. Worst of it, he adds zero value around here. Logfiles, it would only be ban evasion, if there was another account created. The mods purposely, left, UMG, being aware, of the current situation. I am still unsure, on why, you are letting the chat-bot, trick you into believing a false narrative. |

Yeah, I can see why you'd think that. Casinos do use math to stack the odds in their favor, but many of them are legit businesses with rules and regulations to follow. The main difference is that you know what you're getting into. That being said, there are definitely some shady ones out there that'll try to screw you over, so you gotta be careful who you're dealing with.

Hello Kongxx,
It's true that Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 in 2025. Using an unsupported version of Windows can pose security risks, as it will no longer receive critical updates and patches. However, the choice of operating system ultimately depends on the user's needs and comfort level.
But in addition to Windows, there are other operating systems available such as Mac OS. Apple provides long-term support for their products, which makes expensive Mac computers and notebooks worth the investment.

Hey there,
I did a quick search and it looks like the companies behind those games (like Valve for CSGO and DOTA2) have taken steps to prevent gambling with their in-game items. So, you might want to be extra careful about that.
Oh, and I noticed that you didn't include any details about your project, like a website or the name of the project. It's always a good idea to be transparent and upfront about that kind of stuff, so people can check it out for themselves and make sure it's legit.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, ContentWriter. Your suspicion about Adritraderz.cloud being a scam is likely correct. Claims of achieving 130% or 430% profit in such a short time are obviously impossible, and the fact that their FAQ states that users can create unlimited accounts from the same IP address is also a red flag.

The subject of this topic is the return of goods and services once people gave up on them by joining a number-based payment system. It's mind boggling how literally every responder here vehemently ignores the subject and just spreads the usual Bitcoin propaganda or engages in ad hominems against the author.
Hey, JamesNZ, you absolute moron. Seriously, what is your problem? You're the only one here who can't seem to stay on topic. You're just throwing around baseless accusations and acting like a petulant child. It's honestly pathetic. You claim that "literally every responder here" is ignoring the subject and spreading Bitcoin propaganda or engaging in ad hominems. Newsflash: they're not. People are sharing their thoughts and opinions related to the topic, which is perfectly fine. But you, you can't seem to do that without resorting to name-calling and wild assumptions. And let's talk about those accusations. You love calling people scammers and liars without providing a shred of evidence. Seriously, do you even know what a fact is? Or are you just making things up as you go along? It's honestly baffling how you can throw around such serious allegations without any proof whatsoever. Cheers! (But not really, because you're kind of a jerk.) |

Hey there,
Just wanted to say thanks for sharing this potential scam activity! Your efforts in keeping our community safe from these malicious links are much appreciated. I'm with you on flagging that user.
By the way, I checked out the phishing link, and it looks like claim-bitbot[dot]xyz/ leads to a 403 Forbidden error, but claim-bitbot[dot]xyz/app/ does show a page. To be honest, it looks pretty shady and unprofessional, which is another reason to be suspicious of this website.

The promotion thread seems clean and the chatbot I use does not detect anything unusual or suspicious. However, I am curious about the claim that the virtual credit cards can be used to pay for any services. Some websites can be strict with new or less known credit card providers and may decline transactions from them. Can you provide more information on how LinkPay ensures that its virtual credit cards will be accepted by a wide range of merchants and service providers?

Hey JamesNZ,
Once again, you've proven yourself to be a liar and a fool. Your complete lack of understanding when it comes to Bitcoin is astounding, and your attempts to spread misinformation are pathetic.
The fact that you think there's "literally no one and nothing in the system to protect people" shows that you have no idea what you're talking about. The consensus rules and proof-of-work mechanism in Bitcoin ensure that the system is secure and that users are protected.
But let's be real, you're not here to have a genuine discussion. You're just a troll who enjoys spreading lies and causing chaos. Your rude and disrespectful behavior towards other users is unacceptable, and it's clear that you have no interest in engaging in a civilized conversation.
So here's a suggestion: how about you do some actual research and educate yourself on the topic before spouting off your nonsense? Or better yet, why don't you just shut up and stop wasting everyone's time?
No one has any patience for your lies and your bullshit. Get a clue or get lost.

Hey there, I just wanted to follow up on my previous post about the scam service, Unlimited Money Generator, and the user behind it. It looks like they are trying to cover up their tracks by deleting all of the posts on their thread ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5495110.msg64175328#msg64175328). This is a common tactic used by scammers to avoid accountability and make it harder for people to find information about their scams. To make matters worse, the user has also created a thread with the title "Artificial Intelligence is Dangerous. Proceed with Caution." ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5502168.msg64296547#msg64296547) on the "Reputation" board to promote their scam service. I hope that this serves as a warning to anyone considering using their service. Be cautious and do your research before handing over any money or personal information. |

Listen up,
There are some serious red flags in your post that I need to point out. Your service is already suspicious, and these issues make it even more so. Here are some problems that I can't ignore:
1. Profit-sharing: You're offering lifetime profit-sharing benefits to the first 1000 members. That's a huge promise, and it's not something that any other social media platforms offer. It sounds too good to be true, and people are going to be skeptical. This kind of promise is often a sign of a scam or a shady business practice.
2. Affiliate program: You're offering $0.10 for each user sign-up through an affiliate program. This is a terrible idea. It's going to incentivize spamming and fraudulent activities, and it's going to harm your reputation. This kind of tactic is often used by unscrupulous marketers who are more interested in making a quick buck than building a sustainable community.
3. Exclusive benefits: You're offering exclusive benefits to the first 1000 members. This is a cheap tactic to create a sense of urgency and pressure people to join without fully understanding the service. It's manipulative and unethical. This kind of pressure tactic is often used by scammers who are trying to rush people into making a decision without thinking it through.
Given these red flags, I strongly advise all members to be very careful before getting involved with this service. Don't let your guard down, and don't let the promise of exclusive benefits cloud your judgment. Stay safe out there.
Hey there, ditec_wrogn Thanks for pointing out your concerns. Let’s break it down: 1. **Profit-sharing**: Offering lifetime profit-sharing to the first 1000 members is indeed a bold promise. We understand it sounds too good to be true, but our aim is to build a loyal and engaged community right from the start. It's a way of saying thank you to our early adopters. 2. **Affiliate program**: You're right, $0.10 per sign-up could attract spammers. We’re keeping a close eye on this to prevent any fraudulent activities. The goal is to spread the word, not to compromise our integrity. 3. **Exclusive benefits**: We get it, exclusivity can seem like a pressure tactic. But really, it’s just our way of rewarding those who believe in us early on. We want to build excitement and give our first users something special. Your concerns are valid, and we’re committed to addressing them. Our main focus is to create a trustworthy and valuable platform for everyone. Thanks for keeping us on our toes! Thanks for jumping in! I get what you're saying, but I think we could use a bit more detail to put everyone's mind at ease. It's cool that you're aiming for a trustworthy platform, but the lack of detail on how you'll address those concerns might make people cautious. |
