I just want to ask, I am a newbie, can I join some bounties like social media bounty, translation and blog bounties? Even I am not a copper member?
Social media bounties probably require a big influence on social media like twitter or facebook, your rank on this forum is not that important.
If you are a translator or blog writer and can prove that you are the creator of said content you can apply for those type of campaigns. But since your rank is Newbie you will not be able to post pictures. So if a campaign requires you to post pictures in your thread you wont be able to do that until you reach Jr. Member rank or purchase a copper membership.

If the campaign manager allows newbie ranks, you are free to apply. But there are no official Bitcointalk guidelines and it depends on the bounty manager I guess.

Do you know, it's called San Siro when AC Milan play, next week, when Inter come here, the same stadium was called Giuseppe Meazza. So, two clubs, same field and two names. Is it normal? Just think what it will be if Man. United and Man. City play on the same ground or Liverpool and Everton to share one stadium. No way.
The name of the stadium is actually Giuseppe Meazza. Meazza was a renowned Inter Milan player and the stadium bears his name.
San Siro is a district of the city of Milan where the stadium is located. So when you see the name San Siro it is actually the part of town where the stadium is located. Milan just prefers to call it San Siro and not Giuseppe Meazza because it is a reference to a rival player and club (Inter Milan).

@slackovic i drugi seniori bez kampanje

Evo vam jedna btc kampanja. Možda će trajati samo tjedan dana ali ako ste ionako bez kampanje malo free BTCa vam valjda neće škoditi, plaćanje je vrlo solidno za trenutnu situaciju na forumu. Kada bi trajala više i ja bi se prebacio ali mi se ovako ne isplati. Jedino mislim da je manager onaj koji nas je jednom zaje.... u nekoj altcoin kampanji (DBC ili kako se već zvalo) kada su odbijali tjedne samo tako. Znači ako se netko prijavi držite se svih pravila.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5164827.0
Još jedna stvar koju treba napomenuti je da ovaj bounty manager traži da između postova prođe najmanje 30 minuta. To mi djeluje kao previše strogo pravilo. Maksimalno 2 posta u sat vremena.

This is a good reference point especially for new investors who believe that it is a good idea to keep your money on exchanges. Exchanges should be used only for what the name suggests - the exchange of currency A to currency B and once that is done the money should be withdrawn to a safe device. 

For better visibility I am going to add the list of hacked exchanges so it's visible in this thread as well. I think it is important as there are many well known names in that list.

Maybe I'm missing something but why would anyone recommend a desktop wallet of any sort? It's not something I've ever considered for a second. Your online computer is a gaping hole waiting to be plundered. A Bitcoin wallet is just another program sitting on there ready to be ravaged.
Using Electrum together with a Ledger or Trezor device is one reason. Electrum is much more user friendly compared to Leger Live for example. It has options that Ledger Live lacks such as RBF. And when you connect the two there is no need to input your seed so you are as safe as when using Ledger Live with your device.
12266  Other / Meta / Re: [Proposal] What to do with hardcore spammers/scammers/shitposters? on: July 14, 2019, 07:52:26 AM
To simplify this; a well know spammer/"almost scammer" has received a flag, and made some negative trust retaliation; which is quite useless, but has also been spamming threads created by people supporting the flag.
Mods have deleted most/all of the spam replies, but that doesn't feel like enough (for many).
Spamming is against the rules and that is why reported spam posts got deleted.
Scams are not moderated and therefore mods wont ban scammers unless they broke some other rules in the process.

Your suggestion of users coming together and 'arranging' for another user to be banned is not the way it should go and is pretty controversial. It is like oppressing a different view on things. The 30 of us 'arrange' for you to get banned because we don't like you even if you didn't break any rules.

Like suchmoon said, if you don't like someone put him on ignore and don't talk to him.
If he is a scammer open a thread in the appropriate section, post all the proof and have him tagged.

12268  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 14, 2019, 07:14:59 AM
It's a nice move, but I think it's not enough. Italian football league have a deeper problem than a high tax on salaries. There are no attractive games, usually, they play too much defensive and it's not attractive for the audience. very few matches played where used is more than 60% of stadium capacity. I think English second league have more visitors than Serie A. Also corruption tendency and scandal like Calciopoli was not helping.
Why will someone watch the game, where is already known the result.
The problems with Italian football are present not just because of their defensive mentality. I don't think that mentality will ever change, that is what makes them what they are.
The problems are in the infrastructure and the stadiums. Italian stadiums are old and unattractive. They look like huge concrete prisons and not a place where you want to bring your family to enjoy a football match. Italian clubs don't own their stadiums, except Juventus. They rent them from the city.

Take a look at this, is this how a stadium should look?



Then there is the problem with fake merchandise that is being sold close to the stadiums which is actually unbelievable in the first place.
The President of Napoli talked about this when fans asked him why he doesn't invest more like Juventus does with Ronaldo. He told the fans they need to change their 'cheating' mentality and support the club instead. Stop manufacturing and distributing fake Napoli shirts and instead buy the official merchandise from the club. He also mentioned that Napoli fans are paying off the stewards who are checking the tickets to let them in for free.

There are so many things that need to change for Italian football to again be competitive.

That is not good advice and OP should not do that. He will not get merits by begging merit sources and might end up with a negative rating instead with a red text box saying 'Merit beggar'.

This forum has several 100.000s users, you want to suggest that someone should store personal information of alllll these members in a centralized way somewhere. What if the database gets hacked, who would be responsible in that case?
It is too much of a responsibility for one person and it goes against the pillars of Satoshi's vision and general privacy.

It is actually not that hard to do, all you need is a pair of Official Bitcointalk Multipurpose Merit Hands.
Once attached and set up each finger can be configured to merit a separate user.

Media in Italy are now talking about a tax reform that will come into affect starting from 2020. It is believed that this could be the beginning of better days for Italian football. Thanks to the new law clubs could now receive tax breaks.

If a player earns €10M the clubs have to pay a total of €17.5M with taxes but with the new change a player would now cost the club only €12.7M. This means that Italian clubs could give higher salaries and attract bigger stars.

It is explained a bit here:

People who earn 'easy money' from gambling don't value that money because they didn't have to work hard to earn it. They won it being lucky. That is why it is so easy for them to spend it, throw it away or gamble it. Those people who have to bust their asses to provide for their families value every single penny and they wont even try to gamble with it.

"Be your own bank" sounds nice again, in theory. But I've heard of more horror stories of people losing hundreds of thousands of USD because they somehow ended up in a situation where everything was either stolen or missing IRL -
That is why you need to to take necessary precautions to avoid getting yourself in a situation where your funds are stolen. Be it paper wallets, hardware wallets or air gapped systems, whatever you are comfortable with.

The #1 thing most people will tell you here is "Not Your Keys - Not Your Money! That means don't leave any money on exchanges no matter how trustworthy they are or seem to be. Different types of hacks have happened and can happen again in the future. There were also incidents like exit scams where an exchange would simply shut down, take the money and leave for good.

Also whenever i typed electrum in google, i dont think i ever seen any fake electrum wallets sites under google search on the 1st page... unless you are talking about those google ads where they list electrum wallet at the top which are most likely fakes? 
You don't see them because they get reported and then removed by Google.
Never trust the AD results! Currently there are none for Electrum and lately they are hard to come by even for famous exchanges. In the past googling Electrum or Binance would show you an ad as well. The lack of crypto related ads is probably Google's way of fighting crypto.
