1161  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: XQtraders turned out to be scam on: September 19, 2023, 11:09:09 AM
You need to close the other new thread you've made: Xqtraders company founder
It's because part of the forum rules.

12. No duplicate posting in multiple boards (except for re-posting topics in the local language boards if they're translated and re-posting marketplace topics in the altcoin boards if altcoins are accepted).



According to bbb.org and sunbiz.org the company was founded by Kevin Russ and Nicholas Spurlock. I just want to know if the scammer used a fake name or taking information from that company claiming to be that company? According to sunbiz.org the company was dissolved last September 2022. I believe they registered online from abroad to appear more legit.

 Another question is how come the domain was registered for ten years from December 2020 to December 2030 according to Whois? So the  scammer created that domain to appear more legit? Lunofund and Xqtraders are same crypto scam company created by Nigerians because both website was taken down on October 2022 claiming to have issue with original host but they ran away with the money.Both website were reported by users for illegal activities.
Now that you're talking about their domain registered until 2030. It's not a big deal because someone can do that for them or those names aren't really the name of the owners and they've just used a stolen identity or paid for someone to do that for them. I am still wondering how you guys are ending with these websites or groups that are likely to be scam.

If it's not broadcasted on the network then it didn't happened. Unless you did this through offchain like the seller's account from an exchange and your account from the same exchange. That means that if it's just shown to you that the balance was there, that doesn't mean that it was transferred to you. Maybe that guy just shown you his walllet and that's what he has sold to you but if that's the case, that's not in your custody because he still knows the private keys of that wallet. But it's best if you can add more details on how did actually happened. Either hacked, setup by the seller or you're completely have no idea what the heck happened and you can't explain it.

i sent to BC.game official a dm here but i got ignored.

do i need to make a thread about my problem too in the scams sections?
I saw your thread and it's closed now, the good thing here is that at least also update this post of yours that the bc.game has helped you out and got your deposit back although it took 10 days but it's been resolved. As for that mistake you've made of forgetting the memo, I guess if that happens for the second time around, it's your fault.

I think there's no harm in waiting for the bc.game team to respond to you again and solve your case problem so that it can be resolved immediately and there is nothing that makes you uncomfortable playing there, sometimes we need to be patient to solve problems and maybe they will reply to you immediately if they come back again.  Wink
Yup, just take puregrinding's case for example. It took time for him but everything has been well and resolved.

Can you impact us how to eliminate this spirit of fear in crypto investment by sharing your idea or experience
Just look at the ones that have been successful investors. They're the most patient people in the world and doesn't look at the crypto market in the short term. There could be some rare cases that looked on this market in the short term, invested and then profited from it.
But that fear will only be removed if you ever experience how the volatility of this really is removing those that have weak hearts. If you happen to survive that moment, the bear market, then that has made you stronger than ever and that fear could be removed already if you ever witness that.

I'm ready to learn crypto so that I will be bold in any season I will come across in the future.
I'm sure you do and you have a stronger feeling emotionally and that's what you need to prepare for.
1165  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Not banned, yet not accepted on: September 18, 2023, 04:33:49 PM
Those people that uses bitcoin or has it while the law states that it's banned and any use of it are breaking the law. They're aware that Bitcoin is banned there but they're also aware that they can't be traced because it's not gonna happen unless there are already some samples of it. Like publicly reported and caught due to it. As long as there's no one that has been caught by the law and it says that it's banned, they'll keep using it as long as there are ways of doing it.
I have friends that are working in Cybercrime divisions and let me tell you that one slip up on bitcoin transactions and they're able to find out who you are especially if the bitcoin that was tracked was converted to fiat they can just do some tech stuff that they are expert in and from there it's easy to identify who is the person.
They can determine where it's sent and what exchanges they're able to sell those? I know that there are ways of tracking it but I'm out of it and don't want to dig on it. But to say about doing some tech stuff or so, I think that's not enough to prove it. Even so, I do believe that it's possible if they will really have to do that but it's gonna take time not unless those receiving addresses have been recorded that's from an exchange. And from there, that's how they're going to start the tracing as they can ask info upon verification of that exchange.

In my country, bitcoin is still a grey area when it comes to the discussion of it's legality because the Senate and other government bodies that are involved in this kind of discussion hasn't raised up that topic yet although the police and cybercrime divisions warn people from time to time the different kinds of scams that are using cryptocurrency but that's all there is to it. I hope that they're too busy to make some discussion on it because I kind of like the freedom that bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general is still in the grey area in my country.
Much better if it's on the gray area rather than the government is putting pressure to its citizen to avoid Bitcoin as they're placing a ban on it. And typically with the scams, they're all over the internet and they shouldn't focus only with Bitcoin if it's about it.

Bitcoin is only restricted in a few countries, and even with the restriction, I don't see people being bothered; people will still look for ways to get engaged. Nobody wants to pass up a chance to make money. Even the fact that it is illegal in there own region i say some country legalizing it so its a breakaway for other countries to start adapting all in a matter of time.
Yup, that's true. We've got forum members that are from those countries where Bitcoin was banned but it's not a problem on them and they've got solutions about it.

Am sure even in banned country nobody will bother reporting anyone considering  the nature of the economy, everyone is just trying to survive nothing more.
There could some, those that are jealous with that person that finds himself better and becomes successful through investing in Bitcoin.
1166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When the fun stops on: September 18, 2023, 02:54:11 PM
Online gambling platforms exists not only to get you some lucky wins, it's also another form of entertainment,  but I will like to ask if truly you people are getting that entertainment from gambling?
Yes. A gambler can reason out that he's for gambling and entertainment but someone can also admit that he's literally doing it for fun. But regardless of the answer, it is for sure that we're getting the entertainment value as we gamble.

We can see what the world is becoming now, things are getting harder and what's on peoples mind is how to make even more money, there is no time, there are too many responsibilities,  are you sure you getting entertained?
Yup, we've got our own ways to satisfy ourselves and I can say that it's definitely entertaining. Whether I lose or win, you can choose your own happiness from those scenarios but of course, it's a painful entertainment when we're losing.

Some people already feel like they are not having fun, because what they have in mind is making money, to all people that feels this way, If you feel like you aren't having fun I believe for the greater good, it's better to take a break from gambling and do something else.

Do you agree or disagree?
I agree, when you're not having and it's a disaster that you're just getting for this day and you've been incurring a lot of lose so you're basically on a losing streak. It's best to stop and give yourself a break.

1170  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitunix: KYC solution? on: September 17, 2023, 05:28:58 PM
In response to the increasing need for privacy, non-KYC exchanges like Bitunix have emerged.
I haven't heard anything about them and I only heard about it just because you've made a thread about it.

It serves as an alternative for users who prioritize facelessness and wish to bypass the traditional KYC process.  Although the exchange allows traders to avoid KYC requirements for transactions of over 500,000 USDT, for larger transactions, it acknowledges the need for heightened security and KYC becomes necessary.
Now, after spelling out the importance and the problems of KYC, do you see Bitunix's new trading option as its solution, or do you think there may be a better approach to solving the problems of KYC? Also, it's possible you don't see KYC as a problem at all because of how crucial it is , just state whatever your thoughts on the KYC policy are.
Thank you
Honestly, it is contradicting to what you're claiming that they're a kyc solution if you're pointing out that there's a certain limit and then once you hit that, you're required still to kyc. This exchange is not even different from the usual ones that we're using that haven't required kyc before but then changes their terms to mandatory kyc. While some are still fine for not requiring kyc but that seems to be the consolation that they're doing for having a limit and then kyc is next upon reaching or going more with their threshold. There's no better approach with that because even the know P2P markets, who knows if soon they're going to change their terms as well. They probably as good as no kyc now but we've seen series of these exchanges changed that policy.
1171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Knowledge vs hodlings on: September 17, 2023, 03:04:50 PM
In general, in every investment, technology or anything that you wanna to get involved and venture, it is a basic need to have the knowledge of it. Even the most basic ideas and knowledge are required for you to understand what you are up to and what's happening with that venture you've just taken. While we also see people diving into Bitcoin without proper knowledge and they've just heard it somewhere that it's okay to do that because all they need to do is to hold. If we're going to analyze that, that's already basic knowledge because of what they've heard from other people and that shortcut and basic idea could bring them to the right path. It is because that will push them to learn and understand more about it once it is already on their hands. I'll compare this to online courses, if you've taken free courses - you won't be pushy about it and won't probably care to finish that in time because you've acquired that for free. And with paid ones, you're obliged to finish it and it is on your mind that you need to get its worthiness because you pay hefty money on it.

Your title is top 5 but you only mentioned three so I guess you want us to go to that link for us to see the remaining two.
You nailed it.

Well, i say strategies are personal and it depends on every game. I might work on others but it doesn't it will work to you. You don't need to reference others experience because it will be probably different from yours.
What i say is make your own strategies, not by its name but all your reference, like when and where to bet, how often, etc.
The basis of most of us when we see effective strategies is from others and we think that it's going to work on us. It's fine to test it and see if they also suit us as we've got different ways to gamble. But since it's just a test and trial, don't expect too much from it because if you do and then it didn't worked then that's your problem to be made in your mind as that's going to give you hard time in moving on. And if you don't expect a lot and you're just going with the flow and that didn't work for you, just move on and try another one and you're right to try or make your own.

vbetFTN.com | Leading Online Gambling Operator Signature Campaign managed by Hhampuz has 1x Hero/Legendary positions open.
This campaign has already been filled with its last one slot yesterday, so it's back again to CFNP.

We are once again CFNP.



After announcing early today the payment for the first week of the campaign, manager LM announced minutes ago that the campaign has been paused and participants can remove their signatures:

Unfortunately, the campaign is paused. You are free to remove the signature and avatar.
Yeah, that didn't last long when it should be out of the PNYC category. This means that Nitrobetting signature campaign has ended its campaign. Ralle will soon update the table.
1174  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Franklin Templeton files for a spot Bitcoin ETF on: September 16, 2023, 11:34:01 AM
No idea about that company but I guess that we're all getting the vibe here that the next bull run will be pushed by all of these soon-to-be approved Bitcoin ETFs.

I do agree, it seems that the timing is that at least one of those who have applied for a spot Bitcoin ETF might be approved or soon to be approved in the bull run. And if this case, it will trigger a rally, so we shall see.
It is most likely that BlackRock's application will be approved first but there were some news that it's gonna be delayed. Well, these applications are all floating but there's this thought that if not most of them but many of them are likely to get rejected.

Everyone is exciting to see news like this, maybe it didn't have a huge impact on the price in the last 24 hours
When there are news like this, I don't expect that they're going to be impactful within 24 hours. But the result of it will surely be big in the long run once they're approved.

but at least we have maintain above $26k already and so that is very positive, at least for the month of September.
Yup, the support around $25k-$26k is already good if it's being maintained prior to the awaited push that we're tuning in.

There was a time when every financial institution in the USA was against Bitcoin. Now, they all want to get their hands on Bitcoin through ETFs. I wonder what all these big names are cooking behind our backs. I am certain there is a great deal of money and control involved plus they are all certain that the SEC would accept their application.
That's right, many of them have backlashed Bitcoin before and they're known household names and personalities in the finance sector. But then, here they are, many of them are starting to show interest and like for Bitcoin. There's only one drive here, they don't wanna miss the train and they have an idea on what's next for Bitcoin. It's all about the bull run and the profit that they can't ignore when it's there.
1176  Economy / Economics / Re: Tim Gurner wants Unemployment to increase. Employers have lost their power. on: September 16, 2023, 07:46:44 AM
With the adoption of work from home setup during the height of the pandemic, this has also retrieved the freedom of many employees to be with their families while working and putting food on their tables. While it's true that many of them have been demanding because it's hard to go back to the setup that they used to be in an office setup. But this is easy, the policies of the companies should still be followed by employees. If they don't want to RTO then they're free to resign if their demands can't be provided by the company. But if they can be given that opportunity to continue working at home then it is a blessing. Anyway, it's always equal, whether WFH or office setup having a job is the true blessing. On the other hand, it's just hard to get back on the setup that they've been used to be comfortable and that's the WFH setup. With this Gurner's point of view, this is something he shouldn't wish for. The world is struggling and many have been laid offs and it's not going to stop everywhere. He should just give an opinion about employees helping their companies through returning-to-office if that's the setup he wants most employers wanna be.
1177  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will there be a boom again? on: September 15, 2023, 10:11:55 PM
Should I invest my savings in Bitcoin?
If it is your life savings before investing think of it for many times if you can bear to invest with the fluctuation that happens on it every single minute.

Or should I lean towards altcoins this time? Which one?
Better to go with Bitcoin first if you're starting out. But you'll see people to suggest you the top altcoins like Ethereum.

I don't have health problems and don't have to worry about job security but it would make me sad to lose all the savings but life in Canada is getting expensive every fucking day.
The best approach you can do is to DCA. Every payday you can allocate a percentage of your salary and you'll do that continuously. Don't touch your savings if your lifestyle there is unsure and you have to bear with the inflation daily. Just DCA and buy it whenever you wanna buy or set a schedule like every payday, every week or every time you're comfortable to do it.
1178  Economy / Economics / Re: 1.34 trillion asset manager Deutsche Bank to offer Bitcoin service on: September 15, 2023, 05:28:20 PM
I remember when Credit Suisse was shaking, the news and people's attention turns to Deutsche Bank as they think that it's the next one to face a collapse. I didn't followed what's next on it but it seems that those were just scary thoughts from everybody that has been invested a lot to Credit Suisse.

Some people think that it is not secure to store their bitcoins by themselves, like some people think they cannot protect their gold, so they keep it in their bank lockers or with some custodians. They fear that they will lose their private key or hardware wallet, or they will die and their family won't get their bitcoin. People have different understandings of their surroundings, so those types of people who don't feel comfortable managing their own bitcoin wallet will use the services provided by the bank. Most of all, they will get a convenient environment to buy and sell their bitcoins.

I understand your concern about the potential risk associated with banks, but this can make some people's bitcoin lives easier. At least, this is what they think.
Yes, that's the actual use and service of theirs. Just like the typical investor that are not confident of their own skill but invests into asset management that has their own asset manager where they're responsible to keep their portfolios up and invests and spreads their clients money based on the decision of the manager. On the case of this custody service, even if we worry about those people that don't know much or don't like to setup their own wallets and bitcoin investments, that's their choice to choose services from banks like the Deustche Bank.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. OP is betting platform representative in the forum and might probably want to pull traffic to their site as expected of every casino site.
Yes, there's nothing wrong with that and that's needed for them to have their website impressions. We used to see that not just for them but also for other content creators and other gambling companies wherein they're pushing their audience that are curious with what they're sharing to the links that they put at the end of their articles and contents.

They even have active signature campaign going on.
Yup, I also see that and that's totally fine but let's just stick to the topic about the strategies that they're talking about.

Your title is top 5 but you only mentioned three so I guess you want us to go to that link for us to see the remaining two.

3. Go against the public
You won’t always win going against the public. You will make smarter bets in the long run if you always lean towards going against the public.

By lean, we mean handicapping public choices fully. The public is usually wrong. The public also loves to back chalk. So going against the public in many cases leads to better payouts and plays that have a much better chance of winning.
While this strategy is mostly for those that don't rely on the public. It's also like YOLO mentality for your bets. But if it's about the odds and you're into sportsbetting, those odds are like most of the time accurate. Yes, sometimes they don't but they do rarely happen like only a couple of times for most of the bets you do. But, you're the captain your bets and you can go against or be with the public anytime you wish to especially when you're following bet predictions.
