I'd put money on it that it is a complete scam.

They use shills and bots - so they are indulging in consumer fraud anyway.

In reference to my post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4937282.msg44501150#msg44501150) in the thread from Shawn_alter you mentioned,
I don't believe him on the matter that he got framed from that two accounts for plagiarism, simply because the cached version from Google shows that the post
from Ini35 on August 12, 2018 was the same as his version from August 20, 2018. Plus the post from Ini35 wasn't modified on that date.

That's not a simple misquote.

But I get what you mean, we need to make sure to report only clear plags and double check for potential misquotes.

I just want to get things up, since I reported this two profile (thedarknight789 and Iyum) here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1926895.msg44119221#msg44119221)

Where in fact that I can still see that they're still active and can post anywhere they like in any ann thread, posting such copy-pasted posts from icobench rating page where they didn't even quote or credit the original posts/poster tho I see that their post I reported was removed.

Can any mod explain why this 2 users still can posts where plagiarism is such a huge case to get permaban on this forum?


~~~

According to bpip.org (credits to vod for this amazing site) both users got some of their posts deleted, so I guess there are some of your reported posts in it.

Like LoyceV said, it depends on which mod handles your reported post. In my experience, the most of my plag reports got banned, but some of them only got their posts/topics deleted, which is a bit frustrating,
because I invested a lot of time investigating it.

In that case, I would report both users again, 'cause they are still copy/pasting content:

for example.

In difficult cases, where text spinning is involved I also insert a link to my post here in the report.




Am I right or should I report this in some other way?
It's up to you but I always use the report to moderator link first and post here if either it doesn't get handled or it is too complicated to explain in the report text.

Edit:
Also always check on BPIP https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=maremostro

This one is already banned.

Thank you for the answer and explanation.

You said that this account is already banned but when I check on BPIP page link you provided with his account, I see that this member is not banned and was active 11 hours ago.

Are you sure he was banned?

Maybe he was lucky to unban his account, I don't know.


Look at the right site in the security/moderator log section, it says "Profile has been Autobanned". So the user was able to log in, but he can't post anymore.

As a cryptocurrency exchange, Blockchain.io will play a major role in the Internet of Value’s ecosystem.

In Blockchain.io’s vision the Internet of Value is the next level of evolution of the Internet.
The internet of value enables users to securely trade assets, rights, goods and services,
globally and around the clock, without the involvement of a centralized authority, or
traditional financial intermediaries, or so called ‘trusted’ third-parties.
The Internet of value is built on multiple decentralized, automated, transparent, and
secure blockchain-based value networks. Different networks operate different versions
of the blockchain, which in turn are fueled by different cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin,
Ether, or Litecoin. Each network meets the needs of certain types of transactions, such as
high-value payments or title registry, or the needs of specific trading communities, such as
a network of autonomous objects or an industry sector.
Blockchain.io as the leading exchange in the Internet of Value will enable users to trade
across all these value networks.

Everyday we see threads about hacked/locked accounts, which are not only beginners' accounts but also for Legendary members'.  In addition to the brute force hacking risk, there are peculiar risks in the current system and by data breach in 2015.  The security of the forum account has been one of the biggest issue.  The improvement of security, e.g. requiring email verification for changing password/email, introduction of 2FA, automated account recovery system, and the new forum software with stronger security would be ideal.  

Meanwhile, until these features are implemented, what we can do now is to learn how the current bitcointalk system works, how to improve the security of your bitcointalk account, and also what you should do in case your account is hacked/locked.  In this thread, I tried to provide a thorough guide about these topics.  I hope it helps to reduce the number of hacked/lost accounts.

Bitcoin prices hit $ 300 in just under a minute after nearly 48 hours of trading on the sideways, at the same time as the BitMEX platform .
This "extraordinary" incident occurred when the BTC jumped from $ 6,466 to $ 6,745 in a one-minute candle on Bitfinex, and Bitcoin has since continued to rise, surpassing $ 6,800 and peaked at $ 6,899 before falling back to $ 6,840. at the time the post was made.
There is a sign that this price movement, which began at the moment of sudden drop in trading volume, is not entirely "natural". This is because the BTC has risen at the right time at BitMEX, a leveraged electronic money platform that spans billions of dollars in electronic money margin each day, announcing a temporary Interrupt operation for system maintenance purposes.

The bitcoin price took a major leap on Wednesday morning, spiking nearly $300 in less than a minute to break out of what had been two days of mostly sideways trading for the flagship cryptocurrency.

The incident in question occurred at exactly 1:00 UTC, when BTC leaped from $6,466 to $6,745 during a single one-minute candle on Bitfinex, and the bitcoin price continued to increase from there, rising above the $6,800 mark and peaking at $6,899 before settling back down to a present value of $6,840 at 1:34 UTC.

Early indications suggest that the price action, which came during a period of relatively-low trading volume in the cryptocurrency markets, may not be quite organic. That’s because it occurred at nearly the exact moment that BitMEX, a leveraged cryptocurrency trading platform that handles billions of dollars worth of contracts daily, went offline for scheduled maintenance.

Because Bitcoin is on the internet, they are even easier to steal and much harder to return and trace. Bitcoin itself is secure, but bitcoins are only as secure as the wallet storing them.

~1. Offline Mode:
The offline mode of securing bitcoins is called cold storage.

2. Backup:
Backup your entire bitcoin wallet early and often. In case of a computer failure, a history of regular backups may be the only way to recover the currency in the digital wallet.

3. Software:
Keep your software up to date. A wallet running on non-updated bitcoin software can be a soft target for hackers.

The offline mode of securing bitcoins is called cold storage. Cold storage wallets are not connected to the Internet and are thus less susceptible to hacking. Since accessing a cold storage wallet can be inconvenient, it’s best to split the bitcoins you own. Keep a small amount of bitcoins in an online digital wallet for daily trading needs and keep the rest in cold storage. Cold storage takes the private keys in an offline mode, thus decreasing the chances of theft. The practice of using cold storage is not only popular with individuals but even with cryptocurrency exchanges that deal with huge sums and are often under constant threat by hackers. The popular cold storage methods are paper wallet, sound wallets, storage devices (like a USB drive), and hardware wallets.

Cryptocurrencies can feel secure, because they decentralize and often anonymize digital transactions. They also validate everything on public, tamper-resistant blockchains. But those measures don't make cryptocurrencies any less susceptible to the types of simple, time-honored scams grifters have relied on in other venues. Just this week, scams have arisen that divert funds from users' mining rigs to malicious wallets, because victims forgot to change default login credentials. Search engine phishing scams that tout malicious trading sites over legitimate exchanges have also spiked. And a trojan called CryptoShuffler has stolen thousands of dollars by lurking on computers, and spying on Bitcoin wallet addresses that land in copy/paste clipboards.

for me, a key step to protecting your cryptocurrency is to store anything of significant value in a hardware wallet -a physical device like, a USB drive, that stores your private keys and currency locally, and isn't connected to the internet. Expert caution against storing large amounts of coins through cryptocurrency exchanges, or in digital wallet apps on your smartphone or computer.

One of the main differences between Bitcoin and Litecoin concerns the total number of coins which each cryptocurrency can produce. The Bitcoin network can never exceed 21 million coins, whereas Litecoin can accommodate up to 84 million coins. Although in theory this sounds like a significant advantage in favor of Litecoin, its real-world effects may be negligible.

The cryptocurrency market has attracted the attention of many people and continues to gain popularity. The most advanced cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Verge, have grown tens and hundreds times in just a few years. The Internet is full of stories about lucky people who successfully stocked up with Bitcoins or Ethereum at the right time.
Many new investors are interested in getting into the cryptocurrencies, but there are significant risks involved. The market may correct 50–70% in a matter of few days, and the ones who are not experienced enough can suffer severe losses. Therefore, it is important to understand the factors behind the course of the currency, and how this can predict the movement of prices.
It is known that the dynamics of the exchange rate is determined by the supply-and-demand. “Price takes all into account", ?that is what one of the basic rules of trading says. These laws are universal for any market. But this is a generalized representation. It is necessary to identify the main criteria that influence market trends in projections for short and long-term prospects for a deeper understanding.

ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings) have become a popular way to fund cryptocurrency projects. An ICO is an event in which a new cryptocurrency project sells part of its cryptocurrency tokens to early adopters and enthusiasts in exchange for money today. ICOs provide a way for cryptocurrency project creators to raise money for their operations. Most ICOs raise money in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.

The ICO usually takes place before the project is completed, and helps fund the expenses undertaken by the founding team until launch. For some of the larger projects, part of the ICO money goes into a foundation that provides ongoing support to the project. They also work as an initial distribution model for the cryptocurrency tokens, especially those with a proof of stake consensus algorithm.

The ICO participants are invested in the success of the project. They can help get the word out and raise awareness in the broader community. They also provide early liquidity for the cryptocurrency tokens when they start trading. The ICO participants are also usually motivated by a profit potential if the project takes off and the tokens become worth more than the ICO price.ecome worth more than the ICO price.

2. Make sure to set a really hard and long password, and you are the only one to access it from a piece of paper that you control.

Blockchain and cryptocurrency are two different things but they are inseparable. Cyrptocurrency is digital currency which can be used in financial transactions and those transactions are automatically recorded in digital ledger called blockchain. Every transaction should be recorded properly for monitoring and transparency of records. The good thing in blockchain is, it is made publicly and cannot be corrupt by hackers. Blockchain protocol tokens serve two purposes today: they protect scarce network resources without introducing centralized gatekeepers, and they incentivize desirable behavior in network participants.

The cause of someone experiencing Deja Vu :

1. Ever been in the same place before
A 2009 study published in the journal Psychonomic Bulletin & Review shows that when volunteers enter a room filled with furniture, volunteers are very similar in shape, position, and content, they feel deja vu. They think they have seen before. The researchers concluded that there was a connection between Deja vu and feeling used.

2. Frequent travel
People who travel and people who can remember their own dreams will have a greater chance of experiencing deja vu, than those who always stay home or don't remember their dreams. They can draw a wider range of sources including from their own imagination, so sometimes they feel they have experienced it before.

3. There is something with the brain
Some people have symptoms of temporal lobe epilepsy. Epilepsy occurs in parts of your brain that handle short-term memory. Usually the symptoms of epilepsy occur if a memory or memory in the brain is activated to be remembered. And the effect caused by the sufferer is a seizure. Some researchers think deja vu is triggered by a type of interference in neuronal firing in the brain.

Researchers tested that theory in a 2009 study published in the journal Psychonomic Bulletin & Review. They showed volunteers images that had nothing to do with one another—a fenced-in courtyard, and then later, a locker room—and the volunteers felt déjà vu because the images were composed in a very similar way. The researchers concluded that there was probably a connection between déjà vu and the feelings of “familiarity.”

You travel a lot
People who travel and people who can recall their dreams are more likely to experience déjà vu than those who stay at home or don’t remember their dreams, according to the 2003 review. These people can draw on a wider range of sources (either from, say, their adventures Europe, or just their own imagination), so it makes sense that they should think other environments feel familiar, too.

Spam/Crap/poor: If you seen anyone posting crap, this would signal to the member that their posts are not really what we are looking for, and depending on the person (i.e. if they have a good attitude) it gives them a chance to change their posting habits to get on track.

Define "crap". If the post is spam, report to moderator -> post gets deleted.

I don't see the point in having a traffic light system for spam posts.

Seems that you've spammed the forum with threads and posts in other threads about some ICO.

I've spent 60k over the last 8 months, which is 3/4 of my life savings. That investment is now worth 29k. Its been all down hill. I'm not to worried though. I believe in the idea of crypto and where its going. Every government & every large investment company out there are getting ramped up for it. Its going to hit big someday. It may take a year or maybe even 2yrs but its coming. In the last 100 yrs we have gone from no electricity to sending people to the moon. Technology is growing at crazy speeds. Crypto is part of that.

Investment Strategies: Let’s Make Something Clear

How do investors make decisions they want to invest in real estate or stocks? Do they start making investments the moment they think about it? My guess is that the answer to that question is – no!

Before you invest in anything, you need a clear understanding of what your investment goals are and how you will achieve them. You want a good idea of how long you are prepared to keep your investment open, and what amount of profit you are happy to take.

You should have the same mindset with cryptocurrency investments. Before you decide what the next cryptocurrency to invest in 2018 is for you, let’s discuss the two main types of investment strategies for cryptocurrencies.

The traditional banking system works on regular Fait money.Meanwhile, Bitcoin, as a peer-to-peer (P2P) settlement system, was able to process over $1 bln worth of transactions, and more than $7 bln worth of Bitcoin was traded on a single day. Regardless of holidays and weekends, users of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Ether can freely transact on a peer-to-peer basis, through the utilization of wallets.

Non-custodial cryptocurrency wallets enable users to remain in full control over their funds, by only allowing users to gain access to their private keys and no other centralized entity or platform. As such, Bitcoin wallets likeBlockchain, Trezor and Ledger cannot refund transactions or recover user accounts once the private key is lost, encouraging users to be more financially aware and responsible.

As emphasized by Bitcoin analyst and RT’s Keiser Report host Max Keiser on several occasions, financial freedom and independence provided by Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the market are largely beneficial and crucial for individuals and businesses operating in regions wherein government entities control banks and financial institutions.

As you told you already lost the 80% of your initial investment. If you for the option sell then just 20% like nothing. Just take the risk and hold for more time. Those three coins will be on the moon soon.

  • Although Stratis has received some criticism from the users in the past few months, the features of the crypto-coin are worth investing in it. In fact, the development team recently issued a statement saying that they are currently focusing on the marketing aspect signals that the coin is preparing for future. So, It really depends on the team how good they upcome with their new plans.
  • As the beginning of 2018 was veritably devastating for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, various Altcoins especially the less familiar ones started using it as a golden opportunity to make inroads in the existing market.

I have about 400 different cryptos. 40% BTC, 25% NEO, 12.5% GAS, 5% BNB. The last 17.5% is mostly spreaded in the top 100.

My bet is on the market overall. BTC used to be 70%+ of my portfolio and I got invested big in NEO this year. A lot will say that I am a little too big on NEO, but I'm going with my gut feeling, same kind of feeling I had for BTC years ago.

My Bitcoin is 41.82% and Ethereum is 10.98%. I want ETH to be closer to 14%. I'm having trouble letting go but know I need to whack it down to less than twenty, because each one requires you to keep up on it and I'm pretty sure I'm missing crucial points in the trading history of each one because I'm too busy looking at something else.

With over 2000 altcoins glutting the market a bloodbath is inevitable
2017 and 2018 were wild years in the crypto world. The number of ICOs exploded and with it the number of altcoins. As of this summer, there are over 2000 cryptocurrencies available. However, many of the new altcoins are weak in terms of creativity and vision. I’ve been tracking ICOs for the past two years and have seen a lot are based on recycled technology and unworkable ideas. This, along with the low success rate of startups in general, suggests that many if not most of the new altcoins don’t have a future.

Before panic sets in it is important to remember there are altcoins that will survive. Below is a list of 10 that I think have the best chance. Note Ethereum is not there because I don’t see it as an altcoin. I think Ethereum will survive as a store of value along with Bitcoin.

There’s a common misconception about cryptocurrencies that goes something like this: Blockchain is a revolutionary new way of sharing information and is clearly a valuable and transformative technology—but cryptocurrencies are just a fad, the latest bubble from tulips to tech stocks. So, why care about cryptocurrencies at all? In truth, the two are inseparable.
