I only commented once, but the admin immediately blocked me, agreed by the admin to approve my mistake, or my comment was canceled.
I appealed, but the admin did not answer via email.
Why do admins in this group never want to answer member complaints, I want the admin to answer my complaints.

It's still confusing tbh. Your reply on that thread and what you quote there is not related imo. Which account that was banned by the admin? Post the profile link here.

Is where it's going to. I'm the reciever

Your funds are safe. Looks like mycelium or connectivity problems. I think mycelium can't update or connect to peers to update your wallet status. Have you tried reinstalling mycelium? Use different internet provider?

If you have laptop/computer, try to import your wallet to Electrum or other Bitcoin wallet. If there are no problems on your internet connection, you should be able to access your funds.
1243  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: idea.. You Think its GOOD? on: January 17, 2019, 02:09:14 AM
I Think its much Better coz of no kyc.
is any demand for this Kind of Service?

There is a demand for that, but as harizen mentioned, you'll face trust issues. With the recent hacks on various exchanges, exit scams from ICOs, even abandoned exchange/DEX it is quite difficult for most people to blindly trust any new exchange even though they promised to provide instant liquidity. You might be able to do this if you can provide a smart contract. It should be able to receive/detects transactions from various blockchain and in turn send back what the sender should receive, or in other words, atomic swap.

Other solution would be to make a multisig address where you and someone trusted operate the exchanges, but this won't provide instant liquidity as it requires you to sign manually afaik. On top of that, you should address regulatory issues too. If you have high liquidity, there is a possibility that government will 'track' you down and requires you to follow the regulations for exchanges, unless you live in a no man's land.

The best solution would be to contribute to something that is already running, and not start all over again. But no one controls innovation, and it follows a course of its own.

It is not always the case. Sometimes you need to build from scratch because what's available is not suitable for what you need/wanted. Grin is a great innovation imo, no ICO, no premine, community based development and so on.

But I do agree that sometimes there is no need to make two or more projects with the same protocols, purpose and weakness. In case of Grin, Beam is considered their main competitors afaik. This probably happens because the developers doesn't know each other, or they have different goals in mind, so they want to make their own network.

I personally like this "Yu-Gi-Oh" development, it produces competitive space in cryptocurrency. As long as nobody gets scammed, we should embrace competition and innovation.
1245  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Linux - error installing electrum 3.3.2 on: January 16, 2019, 10:58:37 AM
Had exactly the same problem using Ubuntu 16.04. LTS Exact same error messages.

I tried to update python manually, tried to update pip, tried the 'sudo -H' ... nothing worked.

When I upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04. LTS the installation of Electrum 3.3.2 went smooth and without a problem. Probably it's the same problem in mint, the python version is outdated.

Have you tried Abdussamad suggestion above? Instead of installing it, you can try to update phyton and then run Electrum directly after extracting it from the source code. Or are you trying to say that python couldn't be updated?

I'm having the exact same problem trying to upgrade from 3.05 to 3.3.2 on Mint 18.1.

What have you done to fix it? If you don't share enough details it is difficult to help you.
1246  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Reason Why Cryptopia Is SCAM on: January 16, 2019, 08:49:41 AM
The media are surely enjoying this event. It has become the trending topic on my crypto community. Luckily I never use this exchange since last year.

Im 100% sure that they manage that, for sure that the ""Hacker"" is the owner of cryptopia.

There is no fact yet to support your accusations. If you have some proofs or at least evidence suggesting this possibility then feel free to share. In fact, there's still a 'dispute' on how much actually got stolen.[1]

Cryptopia is an top exchange and they cant store more than 50% of cryptocurrency on offline wallet ? how stupid can be ?

I don't think cryptopia is a top exchange, and even if they were, doing something stupid is quite possible. Maybe they make mistake here and there, and the 'hackers' use that.

If they got on to the computer where they were stored, it would be easy. Cryptopia should have had the funds in cold storage, not in a hot wallet

I honestly doubt they don't use cold storage, but it's just speculation without any basis. We can only wait and see, and if there's time, probably track the transactions on the blockchain.

1247  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How Do You Monetize A Site Like This? on: January 16, 2019, 08:30:52 AM
What about banner ads? I've seen several crypto review site allows project (not ICO) to publish ads on their platform, like Etherscan for example. It's not exactly paid reviews. You can also use paid short-link services such as clk.sh. It might be annoying for some users though, but it's worth a try.

On second thought, you can accept paid reviews as long as you can review objectively (even this is highly unlikely).
1248  Economy / Economics / Re: Belarus has launched a regulated bitcoin exchange on: January 16, 2019, 03:36:09 AM
Seems like there will be more exchange like this in the future. Previously, it is DX.Exchange, now this one. Both of them provide the opportunity to buy tokenized assets like shares.

Will the exchange hold the real asset so that each token represent 1 asset (or a fraction of it?)? Can users withdraw the tokens to their own wallet? Which blockchain they'll use for tokenizing the security/assets?
1249  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Non-Spendable on: January 16, 2019, 03:11:27 AM
Are you sure you imported the wallet correctly with its private key to your blockchain wallet? From this link[1], it seems Non-Spendable could mean that you only imported/have watch-only wallet where you can view the balance but can't spend the money.

If that's the case, you need to import the private key. I think you import a different address that doesn't have any connection to your address where your money is, which is why even if you import it your money is still 'non-spendable'.

Private key is something like this (depends on the format):

1250  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22] on: January 16, 2019, 02:58:40 AM
Just want to find out how fast vanitygen can go, hashcat release benchmark & performance of lastest GPU card all the time, i usually use vanitygen to test my GPU card max performance when my family's internet cafe buy a new PC. I always wonder with these days strongest hardware, have we archive the speed of 1bil or even 1 trillion keys/s? Huh

I see. I'm not so sure about the speed but I really doubt we reach that point. 1 billion keys/sec is crazy.
At this moment I can't find the result on the internet either, so your best choice would be to try it out yourself.
1251  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22] on: January 15, 2019, 01:01:11 PM
Have anybody try to run vanitygen on Google's TPU cloud machine or any HPC service? What's the best keysearch rates has it archive so far? Huh

Why would you run it online? It is risky to do that because your data could be intercepted.
You should run vanitygen offline on a secure computer. Using OpenCL is fast enough for me.
1252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What is the best site to track Constantinople upgrade? on: January 15, 2019, 05:23:12 AM
Constantinople happens at block #7080000. You can simply use block explorer (like Etherscan[1] and see where we are right now). At this moment, the upgrade should happen at 17h Jan.

1253  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Feedback on Crypto Sports Project on: January 15, 2019, 05:17:42 AM
If I recall correctly, SportsBet is doing what you want to do right now. However, they use BTC as their main currency (AFAIK). I don't see any reason why you use stable con, except maybe to protect your users from inflation. Is this correct?

I don't know how many people use SportsBet, but it looks like they're quite famous. There are several options such as betting on e-sports or sports there. You should take a look at them and see how can you made your own betting platform.
1254  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Do you want to participate in a new project? on: January 15, 2019, 04:46:29 AM
It is paid with tokens of the application.

A professional project would never paid their team member solely by their tokens, especially if the tokens doesn't have any value. If you're really serious, you should at least provide fiat payments (or coins/tokens like BTC/ETH) to cover your daily operation.

For everyone who want to join this, please think about it carefully. Don't fall for big offers such as $4000 in tokens when the token is not yet on the market. It's better to get $5 weekly rather than working for nothing. You might get scammed and your reputation could get tainted too.
1255  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scammer [Running fake giveaway] on: January 15, 2019, 04:14:31 AM
You are right, we can't ban their channel and almost maximum time moderator doesn't delete this type of post.

They don't? Shame.

As stated on the forum rules, scam is not moderated. Red trust will give people enough awareness that he's scamming or at least has intention to do so, the thread doesn't have to be removed.

It might not be the best decision for everyone but as long as you're careful on your own you should be able to avoid scams.
1256  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: What framework do I need to learn to become a Bitcoin Developer? on: January 15, 2019, 03:50:49 AM
Yes, I can program the website (Javascript and PHP). I previously studied coding with Solidity (program Ethereum) also at the middle class, but I also want learning to explore Bitcoin.

That's a nice start. I guess you won't have many problems when you tried to learn about C (which is used for Bitcoin Core development afaik). Have you decided which part of development you wanted to contribute on? If you're expert on JavaScript & PHP maybe building block explorer can be a good learning experience for you.

Or if you want to educate people about Bitcoin & blockchain in general, building a website to explain about blockchain and things like that is also a great imo. You might not be a developer per se, but you help in the promotional/educational part.
1257  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Re-Broadcast Transaction (Need Help) on: January 14, 2019, 04:28:46 PM
As i said, i received this two weeks ago.

Since than its ob my Bitpay Wallet unconfirmed, it also dropped out of blockchain, i cant find the transaction nowhere else, every site tells me that the TX does not exist, can only see it in my Bitpay Wallet, no other informations i can provide

I thought you're the sender because you want to re-broadcast it, but turns out you're the receiver. My gut feelings tell me you've been scammed just like LoyceV said. Your transaction is not dropped out of the blockchain, it doesn't even enter it if I get it right (at best it stopped at the mempool).

It is weird though, how can your wallet detect the TX ID when every block explorer doesn't even know it?


1258  Other / Meta / Re: Plagiarism as a result of cultural differences on: January 14, 2019, 04:05:47 PM
In all of your examples of cultural differences all of them are about students doing school work in each of their respective country, do you think the same understanding still applies in the forum where they just copy/paste posts just to complete a bounty requirement?

Even the 'cultural' description on those students are wrong from my pov. I never remember we've been taught to not respect individual works or feels we should be uncomfortable when we cite someone on our papers. As collective as we are, individuals works are still respected ,even when we engage in online discussion.

One of the largest forum in my country, which is more 'carefree' than Bitcointalk still does not allow plagiarism. Even on Facebook, when some user posts a status that is similar to the status of somebody else, we 'bully' them. There is no cultural differences, we know plagiarism is bad.


1259  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: What framework do I need to learn to become a Bitcoin Developer? on: January 14, 2019, 03:29:52 PM
I hope there is also complete usage documentation on that framework

More importantly, you have to keep practicing / coding. Reading documentation won't get you anywhere if you never tried it by yourself. As a (want to be) programmer myself, I try to find a problem to solve first, by visiting some code challenge site like codewars. It will be difficult at first, but then you'll get used to it. From this point we can increase our skill in programming and hopefully get enough knowledge to start contributing on Bitcoin development.

Btw, do you have any coding/programming background?
