101  Economy / Lending / Re: [W] $300 [H] Jewelry [Germany] on: October 09, 2023, 01:41:30 PM
Who moves to another country without having $300 to spare? This looks very much like a scam selling stolen jewelry.

In 1975 my dad moved from Palestine to the US with only $35 in his pocket.  That was his entire net worth at the time.

A package from Germany to Japan, with insurance and airmail is around 40-50euro. So a package to France for example is around 15euro, insured up to 500euro.

None of those countries are surrounded by war or threats of bombing.  I was in Jordan last year, and I can tell you that DHL has little presence even in a peaceful Middle Eastern country like Jordan.  Earlier this year I wanted to send two used laptops to my aunt and uncle in Jordan, but logistically it was a nightmare to get it done.  I ended up waiting until another relative was going back for visit, and sent them with him instead.

I'm not trying to defend the OP or support his claims, but this attempt to discount them isn't accurate.

Do you agree?

103  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger's laying off employees. Thoughts? on: October 06, 2023, 12:13:24 PM
In other words, do you think Ledger has already got something akin to a master list of every Ledger user's private keys?  Just thinking out loud here, you know?

Whether they do or don't doesn't matter.  The question that one should be asking themselves if they can or cannot.  Obviously the answer is they can.  Why would anyone sweat and fret about the other questions when the most damning answer is already known?

People should stop using Ledger, it's obvious that they think of their clients as nothing but a number and an income stream.

As soon as the Democrats steal the next election.
105  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor New Hardware Wallet _____! on: October 05, 2023, 03:57:44 PM
Subscription for seed recovery LOL

Lol, I think they know better.  I've always been under the impression that Trezor management team are laser eyed maxies themselves, and tend to steer more towards keeping their base happy.  I imagine they witnessed how Ledger's attempt at "shared self-custody" blew up in their faces, I don't see any other hardware wallet making such a bonehead mistake.  Except Jack Dorsey, he's boneheaded enough to repeat such a retarded mistake, I guess.

For amateurs, it's a good pitch.

Any feature that makes use of a secure hardware wallet easier would help with mass-adoption, so hopefully they've figured out a way to make even more user friendly without sacrificing security and self-custody.


I'm still a bit salty about Trezor imbedding Wasabi into Trezor Suite, so I'm not sure if I want to spend any more of my money with them.  I'll decide when they release the new product and scrutinize it's features.
106  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor New Hardware Wallet _____! on: October 05, 2023, 02:25:47 PM
Can someone guess the name for new Trezor device?

I hope they call it the T800.  If so, I'll be back.

A new model with their own secure element? Is that actually something they talked about before?

I seem to recall this being a sticky subject in the past, and I assume it's something they've wanted to implement to keep up with the competition (i.e. Passport and ColdCard,) but I don't recall any Trezor communication stating they're working on it.

I'm really wondering what are the important features they are missing, that would require them to release new hardware for them to implement.

Market share, lol?  Like any business, they need to innovate or die.  To venture a guess; I bet it's going to have a larger touchscreen than the T2, like a small smartphone form factor.  A secure element that resolves Trezor's known vulnerability would be a significant upgrade all on it's own, IMO.

There are a lot of red-flags here.  The git for Radium has no repositories to view, no releases to view, and the only link that has any function is the download link.  That's not how any legit coin would start out.  And, as Cantsay mentioned, deleting posts in a self-moderated ann thread is another red-flag.

Speaking of flags, newbie flag created: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=3217
109  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [SOLVED] Debug builds on: October 03, 2023, 03:04:43 PM
There are no beta builds of Electrum, only the nightly one on the master branch which DireWolfM14 already pointed out.

It does appear that the site linked to by the OP auto-compiles binaries every time there's a new contrib.  The Electrum master includes a .cirrus.yml file, which defines the docker container that builds the binaries.  You learn something new everyday.

Nevertheless, the skeptical cynic in me prefers to build the binaries myself.


@BoaTingacCident

Sorry I forgot about this thread, but here's the thread where I posted instructions on how to compile the binaries yourself: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5224252.0

I don't know why you think you need a whole testnet bitcoin, most experiments with testnet can be done with fractions of a bitcoin.

Anyway, here's a reliable testnet faucet that will send you a reasonable amount: https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet/
111  Economy / Lending / Re: [W] $300 [H] Jewelry [Germany] on: September 30, 2023, 04:49:02 PM
The only critique to this offer I have is that the retail value of the jewelry is no longer applicable.  Assuming it's authentic, the re-sale value is unlikely to be evaluated as much (if any) more than the value of the precious metal from which it's made.  Being that this is designer jewelry, it's safe to assume that new, retail pricing is far and above the value of the precious metals used to make it.  That may make your offer less appealing to a potential lender.  I would recommend to any potential lender (or escrow agent) to have the jewelry evaluated and appraised, which could add costs and time.

Also, it may behoove you to rephrase your offer to accept lenders from around the world, but you will need to find a trusted escrow agent in Germany.  I don't know if it'll make much difference, but it might.  I wish you luck with the help you need, but I doubt your offer is going to get much traction.

Maybe your brother can help you with the loan, since he's already in possession of the jewelry and aware of it's authenticity (not that he would need collateral since he's your brother.)  Have you asked him?

116  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: [SOLVED] Debug builds on: September 29, 2023, 03:03:24 PM
I've never heard of that site to which you provided a link.  Be very careful, Electrum is one of the most common targets of malicious wallet scammers.

There are plenty of resources on this forum to help you learn how to compile your own binaries.  It's been a while, but I recall posting some instructions myself on how to do so on Windows.  I'll see if I can dig them up a little later.
117  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Debug builds on: September 29, 2023, 02:31:53 PM
Yes.

The nightly commits are published in the master repository on github.  You'll need to compile the binary yourself.


ETA:

NO!  The link you provided is not the official Git!  Be very careful not to download a malicious version!
Code:

The official git is here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum

118  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Sportbet.one just stole $5k usd from me on: September 28, 2023, 10:09:48 PM
I wouldn't say it's a famous sportsbook but saying they are not known by anyone here is not right, they have an ANN thread here since 4 years and they have already sponsored few pools afaik, other guys from this thread seem to know them. It's one of the first decentralized sportsbook, maybe the first one actually, you can bet there without opening an account if you want, directly from your wallet, without any way to lock your funds unlike traditional bookmakers, if you use this feature. I don't know if they are scamming OP here, but saying they are just impersonating "sportsbet.io" since 2018 is a little bit unfair IMO.  

Thanks for the correction.  The look of their website doesn't exactly convince me that they're not attempting to impersonate Sportsbet.io, but the fact that they've been around for 4 years and this is the first complaint I've heard about them does lend them some credibility.


I believe it's a small misunderstanding, DireWolf has no intention of harm, he just missed that there's a platform with a quite similar name to the one that's quite established, and he's just being cautious if that's an impersonating website.

It was indeed a misunderstanding on my part, but I don't think Saint-loup meant to insinuate anything by his comment, merely providing a correction.  At least that's how I took it.
119  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: I have a project, I expect your support. You can be a partner. on: September 28, 2023, 09:31:46 PM
The application I'm talking about can be created by Mobile for only $2000 or VBULLETIN sites that require special security software for $180. As I Mentioned, Many People Using Crypto Binance Will Follow This And Use It. Tokens Arriving on Crypto Sites Every Month Will Queue for Advertising. I think you can open your horizons. If you believe, everything will happen. .

If you can do it for $2.2k then why is your broke ass begging for ten times that amount?  You're not a developer, you're a fucking scammer.  Anyone with moderate coding skills can download free forum software and integrate APIs for CEXs or MetaMask.

The only point of this thread is to make your attempted scam appear somewhat legit.  Piss off, already.

The species from which my mother hales has nothing to do with your attempt to scam, nor my ability to recognize a piece of shit when I see one.
