So you expect us to believe somehow, you managed to find a platform ^{[by accident]} on its first few days after its creation, prior to recommending it here? Yeah, right!
^{- It's interesting how you "never logged back in" after creating this topic.}

I'm not sure about it but I think the PMs does not go to the mods for to handle but to the admins. And if theymos or Cyrus have to check and delete it I guess it will take time.

Agreed. I gave up reporting in that board - there is only so many times I can report the same 5 or so accounts over and over and over and over and over and over before I want to stick forks in my eyes. If we aren't going to ban the obvious bots and chronic spammers then there is no point keeping the board open since it is simply used for free advertising by these low quality blogs and "news" sites.

Either assign a moderator to clean it up properly or just close it. Because whatever we are doing at the moment clearly isn't working.

A lot of us think the same and have asked the same but nothing has been done, and to make things worse every single piece of semi-important news gets about 10 topics in bitcoin discussion and at least one in economics and in speculation. Unfortunately at this point, that board is almost useless, all that is good for it is to scan the titles and use it as RSS feed.

Oh, and speaking of moderating that board, I have an opinion that might really be unpopular (for spammers), assign frodocooper
to it...and grab some popcorn. 

It's one of the rare sections of the forum not to be infested with shitposts where we can get a 'normal' discussion, unfortunately, the moderation is inexplicable.

they only offer bank transfers---no paypal. in fact, it sounds like they may only support ACH transfers (no wires), which probably means no foreign bank accounts either. robinhood is only for USA citizens and residents so i wouldn't be surprised.

The Press section is an unmoderated mess. The fact that the CoinIdol News bot is still spamming their links and hasn't yet been permabanned is proof enough that no one cares about it. Time to close that board for good.

It had nothing to do with Peloso or anything related to the community. I had a COVID-19 patient in the family. From 18th to 24th he was in hospital. On 20th we moved him to ICO. From 21st he was in life support and on 24th he passed away. So, you can imagine how hard it was for me to think about anything else.

The entire family is still in risk although the test result came negative for all. But still we are not safe. We will wait one more week to have another round of test to ensure that we are clean. I and some other member were in direct touch with the patient, after all it's family. You can not just stay away and watch him passed away.

That was what I was going to write myself, but apparently I missed this thread for a week and you beat me to it. 

If you're looking to buy bitcoin, buy it from a crypto exchange--and Robinhood is not a crypto exchange.  I see them as more of a bucket shop for crypto, where you can speculate on the price of bitcoin (and whatever else they offer), but you never actually own the crypto you paid for.  You're basically just betting on whether bitcoin is going to go up when you buy it through Robinhood, as I don't think they offer the option to short it.

Robinhood did one awesome thing since they went into business, however: they forced online stock brokers to basically do away with trading fees, which I find amazing.  So even though I'm neutral toward them as far as bitcoin goes, I applaud them for disrupting the stock brokerages' fee structures.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'overwhelming' but I do know that trading options takes a bit of time to get used to.  I've never done it, but I do know that it can get very complex--and personally, I'd rather own a stock outright than just bet on where its price is headed.

An update to the thread:

Is there any way to withdraw robinhood funds to a paypal or a non US bank account? Please let me know.

Yes, no, maybe. These centralized exchanges are neither open nor honest about how they reach the decision to lock an account, about what triggers their automatic algorithms, about how far forward or backwards they trace withdrawals or deposits, and so on. They obviously can't trace every withdrawal ad infinitum, but who knows how many transactions they do trace, and this number will vary between exchanges.

I would expect that a single hop between exchange and mixer, especially if you are just making one-input-one-output transactions, isn't going to make much if any difference to the likelihood of your account being locked. Probably best to find other people who are using the same exchange you are and ask their experiences.

I need a link.

Sometimes theymos miss points when he investigate but later when he is asked to review he does. I think not long ago there was a case and he removed the advertising.

Agreed.  I've been forced to leave negative trust for users because they are posting self-moderated in project development.   I've never traded with them, they have never scammed, but they probably will unless I warn others.

A fresh idea for a change!   However, changing readable HTML into garbage would reduce search engine rankings.  :/

It's somehow sad to see in which way nullius is about to ruin his reputation here. 
His technical topics are outstanding but his recent off-topic, fraudulent-themed spam-posts are totally annoying. People disagreeing with him will be hit by spam-walls immediately or even getting an own topic (of course self-moderated), getting rants and complaints about his "issues". 

Mr. Free speech aka. Censorship has definitely too much free time.

we need to make a distinction between binance.com and its more tightly regulated fiat exchanges. there was a highly publicized case in late 2019 where a binance.sg (singapore) user had his account frozen for sending coins to wasabi wallet and engaging in coinjoins. in response to all the drama, CZ published a blog. if you read between the lines, he is saying binance.com is unregulated and as such, doesn't engage in the same practices:


if you look in binance.com's terms, they don't mention mixers or coinjoins. i'm not aware of any issues there yet.


in terms of liquidity, it's definitely not like LBC was back in the days, but i've had nothing but good experiences on localcryptos. it's the only place i've been able to find p2p cash trades for the last year or so.

Depends what criteria you are judging it by. If you judge it by how quick it is to make a trade on a centralized exchange such as Binance, then no DEX will ever be better. However, I do like LocalCryptos and would certainly call it a good DEX. They have a nice escrow system in place, which rather than using multi-sig uses a smart-contract like script which allows parties to share secret codes which each other offline or online to be able to sign the release transaction. You can read more about it here: https://blog.localcryptos.com/how-bitcoin-escrow-works/. It has end to end encrypted messaging by default. It's not quite as good as Bisq from a privacy point of view for obvious reasons, but it is still a good exchange.
