It seems that Mauro Icardi will stay at Inter despite all the problems and transfer speculations lately.
I read some headlines recently where he confirmed that his wife is pregnant and at the moment it is not the time to move elsewhere. It will be interesting to see if Conte counts on him at all or if he will be suspended and watching the matches from the stands.

You should seek professional counseling. If it is available in your country - do it. You gambled away a lot of money and put your future in jeopardy. You have admitted it on this forum and now it is time to do it in real life. I hope you can get your life together and never do it again.

Good luck!

I pay in like 30BTC i can proof you this on Telegam...
Why cant you prove it here but only on Telegram, what is the difference?
Post proof of that 30 BTC transaction if it is not too much too ask, but here, not on Telegram.

If you want to be taken seriously you need to make a proper appeal otherwise this is meaningless.

There are some perfect time periods to move coins each day with low transaction fees.
I think it was Loyce who said in a post somewhere that the best time is in the morning hours and especially during weekends when there are less business and institutional transactions.

Quiz/test knowledge messages can be used for:

- Registration  (to prevent bot/spam users asking them to read forum rules and basic Bitcoin faq, and then answer them)

We have users on this forum who don't speak a word of English and we will probably have more in the future. With such an implementation you would be limiting Bitcointalk to only those who can understand English well enough to pass the test.

Take a look at his post again. He claims that he has written down his mnemonic phrase on a paper notepad.
Maybe you are right. The way I understood it is that he saved it both in Notepad on his PC and on paper because he put a comma between the words.

phrase-the key was recorded in Notepad, on paper!

But anyways, a lot of information is missing especially the origin of the downloaded Electrum wallet. Even if he downloaded from the original website we still don't know his online habits. Has he used the computer where the wallet is installed in connection with pirated software, torrents, illegal downloads, pornography... prior to installing the wallet which could have resulted in malware being installed on his system.

Still no info about the contract and a possible buyback for Juventus lets see if something new will happen on the Juventus press note.
There is no agreed buyback fee. But it seems they made a gentlemen's agreement that if Everton receives an offer for the player they will inform Juventus about the offer and Juventus will have the option to match the bid that will be accepted by Everton. I can't remember if I read this on the official site or somewhere on Facebook.
12168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 05, 2019, 09:08:58 AM
The Dybala - Lukaku exchange will not happen.

Sources close to Juventus reported a number of issues with the deal.
One being the image rights for Dybala that are pretty high.
The wages that Dybala desired were higher than what Man U was prepared to offer.
United included a salary cut of 25% in case they don't qualify for the UEFA CL next year - Dybala was not OK with that.
Too big commission fee for Dybala's agent.

You should never have done this. In case your computer is compromised anyone who opens that notepad file has access to your funds.
Anyone using your computer has access to your funds.

Where's my money? You stole $ 600 from me and you're trying to make me look guilty!
You lost your money because you didn't take the necessary precautions to safeguard them. At this time you should consider your computer compromised and for your own safety consider reinstalling your OS.

You have not answered any of the questions that were asked and instead you are putting the blame on the developers. 
12170  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: I just had all my bitcoins stolen and I don't understand how it happened on: August 04, 2019, 07:43:12 AM
I believe we should start up a campaign (not speaking about signature campaign) where we should make newbies aware of such vulnerabilities to save them from becoming a victim for those hackers who just want free money and don't really wanna work for it.
I am afraid that wouldn't change much.
If you browsed through all of these threads that were opened where members had issues involving their wallets many of them have one thing in common:
Users are not sure what they are doing but they do it anyway before understanding the risks involved.

Usually it goes like I didn't use my Electrum wallet for 2 years and when I opened it I needed to download Electrum 4.0 which I did. After that all my coins were gone.

It is like people are afraid or in too much hurry to ask questions and they usually do it when it is too late.
12171  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: missing funds on: August 04, 2019, 07:25:18 AM
What wallet did you use exactly and what version?
Which exact site did you download it from and have you verified the signatures for the wallet, if you did how did you verify them?

It seems that you either downloaded a fake wallet or someone has gotten access yo your seed or wallet file.
What precautions did you take to protect your seed and the wallet file? Did you also encrypt it?

I am not familiar with radikal.ru site where you added your image so I am not going to click on it. I suggest https://imgur.com/ which is widely used on this site.

Question: Why do we need to worry about change? Shouldn’t it be enough to send the exact amounts plus fees? That’s what I do with all my transactions at least.
You do it with Bitcoin transactions or are you referring to another currency?

If you have 1 BTC at an address and you need to spend 0.2 BTC, imagine that your 1 BTC is in the form of a paper bill. You need to spend the entire bill/1 BTC because you only have that one bill and no smaller bills. 0.2 BTC is going to the destination address and the rest (- the fees) is the change in the form of a new paper bill, worth 0.8 BTC that is now going to a new address/another one of your pockets.
12173  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: I am guessing my money is gone on: August 04, 2019, 07:05:49 AM
$1600 in an exchange long term? That’s pretty crazy considering the exchanges that has been hacked. How’s an exchange going to be any safer then all the other methods?
adaseb probably means that a Top exchange is a safer place to keep your funds unless you have proper means to safeguard the money yourself.
We have seen users not taking note of their private keys, entering and forgetting which passwords they used or falling for the Electrum phishing scam.
All these would be prevented keeping the funds in an exchange but in that case we are open to other dangers arising from keeping funds in an exchange.

Although I don't agree with keeping funds in exchanges I understand what adaseb is talking about.
You point is also valid.
There have been so many hacks, exit scams that it has become like a lottery. A spin of the wheel to see which exchange is next.
12174  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: When will they fix Ledger Nano S firmware? on: August 03, 2019, 08:49:35 AM
Ledger Nano S does not even allow some computers to work with it. Their company will probably just say, go buy a new computer, and also buy a new Nano X.
You need Windows 10 to be compatible with the Ledger app. So if your computer can handle Win 10 you are good to go. The only other requirement I know of is a 64 bit OS but that is also pretty standard nowadays and a lot of other software doesn't work on 32 bit OS anymore, like Adobe products.

What other requirements are there? 
12175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 03, 2019, 08:35:34 AM
There is more and more talks that Man City and Juventus will exchange right backs. Joao Cancelo could go to City with Danilo + X amount of € going in the opposite direction. 

According to https://www.facebook.com/AroundTurin/photos/a.600498080038131/2440578709363383/?type=3&theater even if Dybala wants to stay at Juve he will still be placed on the transfer list and they are still trying to make him accept the offer from Man United.
12176  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What to do to avoid phising sites on: August 03, 2019, 08:22:39 AM
Best is to use Google chrome and adblocker, also keep track on HTTPS
10 years ago that would be enough but today HTTPS is no proof of anything. It costs only a few $ or is even free and all it does is it creates a wrong sense that the website in question is legit due to the encrypted connection.
12177  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Project Opportunities "Too good to be true" on: August 03, 2019, 08:05:18 AM
I also get invites sometimes as a translator and they said they'll pay me with their tokens.
Wait... I thought that all these bounty campaigns pay their participants in their native tokens. I am not counting those that pay in Bitcoin, like signature campaigns, but is that not the standard way these bounty campaigns do business? Maybe I have been asleep to long and something changed.
12178  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Telegram is a very risky place on: August 03, 2019, 08:00:27 AM
The whole Internet is a risky place if you don't know what you are doing, if you are gullible, don't use fair judgement and believe anything you read it is only a matter of time before someone scams you.

Telegram is not to be blamed. It is just a medium for communication. The blame is on the unsuspecting users looking to make a quick buck and the scammers taking advantage of them.   
12179  Other / Meta / Re: Forum, sex, crypto. Are there chances to see growth of sex industry adds? on: August 02, 2019, 09:38:54 AM
My reply is a bit off-topic but the privacy altcoin Verge has a partnership with PornHub. I remember seeing videos of Asa Akira promoting Verge in NYC. I don't know how good it went. By looking at the value of Verge one could argue that it didn't go well at all.

Privacy coins and sex related services could become a thing in the future due to the anonymous nature of the transactions but I doubt we will ever see such ads on Bitcointalk.
12180  Other / Meta / Re: What happens after recovering a hacked account on: August 02, 2019, 09:28:30 AM
There aren't any official guidelines for that. You would need to post enough evidence, like others said, that your account got hacked and how long you didn't have access to it. Regarding the blacklisting and possible negative feedback left on the account it is up to each member individually if they want to remove those. You would have to talk to them one by one, explain your situation. Some would probably understand and if everything you say can be verified they could remove your 'restrictions'.

If the account was used to scam someone that person might be harder to convince and could even ask for compensation or an explanation why it took you 2 years to realize that your account got hacked.
