12421  Other / Meta / Re: [Suggestion] Locking thread after receiving specific/straightforward answers on: June 09, 2018, 02:03:06 PM
The author of the thread can lock his thread whenever he wants. The problem is that most of them don't know about this or don't care.

This has already been discussed a lot. Actually, last week someone created a thread with a similar suggestion: Threads should be locked after a certain time

Everybody knows that threads should be locked after being answered. But how should we enforce this? What is your suggestion?
12422  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Mixing services on: June 09, 2018, 03:20:15 AM
I know theres no evidence but saying that it makes no sense is wrong because you know tainted coins from the darknet use mixers to hide their trail from the criminal source.

Having that said, other uses for mixers by users who are not criminals would be to hide wealth from the IRS or hide wealth from the wife which is worse than the IRS lol.
 
So? It still doesn't make sense. You think there are more "evil people" than good people mixing their coins. But who are you to say this? Where are your sources, research and/or data to corroborate with your "analysis"?

Saying that only criminals only use mixers is the same thing as saying that only criminals use Bitcoin. And we know as a fact that this is not true (p.s: an ACTUAL fact): Report: Less Than 1% of Bitcoin Used for Illegal Purposes

And please don't use the "they don't have anything to hide" bs excuse.
12423  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: So, do you guys remember Lumi Wallet? on: June 09, 2018, 02:15:34 AM
I was looking for a thread like this one (to see if anyone had already posted this article, otherwise I would).

Unfortunately, you posted this in the Bitcoin Discussion board, where the spammers never rest. Because of this, your thread has 0 replies and isn't even on the front page of the board anymore (it got buried pretty quickly by the SMT being pumped every few minutes). Why don't you move it to the "Web Wallets" board?

Now, back to the topic: this was all the Lumi Wallet team said after the article came out:

Quote
Dear Emin, Thank you so much for spending your time and helping us make @Lumi_wallet more secure. We would love to get you on board and work together on better product. Please check out our mobile wallet as this is what we concentrated on and where we have most of our users. 💙
https://twitter.com/Lumi_wallet/status/1005172315909492738

They didn't even deny it. So I assume the wallet is (or will be) a scam.

They also "deleted" their ANN thread when they got called out by Loyce and Lauda (who neg trusted them).

12424  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Problems with Yobit API on: June 09, 2018, 01:33:24 AM
So are there any methods which allow you to get info about all pairs from one request?
Probably not. They say this will be available in the API v4 (no ETA).

For now, it would be better to make multiple requests with the maximum number of pairs possible per request.

And what are the limits for sending request to yobit api?
From their FAQ, about 100 per minute.
12425  Other / Meta / Re: Watchlist shows posts which are not on my watchlist on: June 07, 2018, 08:38:42 PM
There is no such thing as "promotional posts".

Go to the Watch board and see if the Announcements board is there. If it is, type the id (159) in the textbox and press "Unwatch board".

OgNasty is currently holding 500BTC ($3.843.000) for the forum in this address.
There is also an auction to advertise in the forum every couple days (~1 week), which earns the forum a few BTC per round. Last round, it was 3BTC (for 1 week of advertising)

They have money.

I'm not sure about the other 2, but this was (at least one of) OP's post (now deleted):

In it to win it!

Sounds like a great project and have signed up.

Not that high quality tbh.
12428  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: twitter audit. I can pay with eth. on: June 07, 2018, 05:36:39 PM
but this method only show the audit score of new user name only? isn't that  Huh

Yeah, you're right... You can use this method only if you want to have your result for youself, but if you need it to show it io your bounty manager, it will not be a solution.
No. Both you guys are wrong.

What's so difficult on trying before posting that something doesn't work?
12429  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is Mainnet? What is Testnet? on: June 07, 2018, 11:02:39 AM
I heard the information TRON and EOS coming out the mainnet, then the CMT ran the testnet. What is the mainnet? and testnet?
Mainnet = official chain where the real transactions happens.

Testnet = like the name says, it's a testing chain with worthless coins.

 
Quote
Why are coin prices increasing when mainnet is launched?
Obvious reason. Because this means that it's (teorically) a working product.

Steemit has its own blockchain. You can also use it to earn money with your articles.
12431  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Learning how to safely escrow with BTC? on: June 06, 2018, 05:26:05 PM
I have question, how can anyone start his own escrow service. Where do you get that kind of trust
Usually, you gain reputation with the time as you do trades, help the community, etc... Then, when you are a known (and trusted) member of the community, you can decide to start a service like this one. There is no formula to get a reputation.

whats the most trustful "institution" which still can be anonymous?
Idk.

12433  Other / Meta / Re: https://thebitcointalk.net is it a phishing site ? on: June 06, 2018, 04:35:01 PM

The same happens in the bitcointalk(.)to

what are they phishing?
Accounts?

"Phishing is the attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details (and money), often for malicious reasons, by disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing

By cloning the BitcoinTalk forum and buying a similar domain, they are pretending to be the official forum (and possibly logging the username and password of those who try to login).
12434  Other / Meta / Re: The Bitcointalk 50 BTC VIP club. Where are they now ? Complete list. on: June 06, 2018, 12:15:40 PM
There are a few missing. For example, where is:

Mt.Gox Support
MagicalTux

edit: Forgot Hal Finney Shocked
12435  Other / Meta / Re: https://thebitcointalk.net is it a phishing site ? on: June 06, 2018, 12:07:20 PM
Phishing site.

BitcoinTalk.org is the ONLY domain the forum has.
12436  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: twitter audit. I can pay with eth. on: June 06, 2018, 12:04:55 PM
I m not sure that your method is efficient sir. It seen like when you change your username, you have to wait 90 days before change it again.
That's not true. I don't know where you heard that.

You can change your username as many times as you want without any cooldown.
12437  Other / Meta / Re: No recovery e-mail on: June 05, 2018, 11:36:33 PM
Hm. Adresses I used in the forum are long gone, so no way to reset my password then, I guess.
There is. By signing a message with a staked address.

12439  Other / Meta / Re: Reporting topics, opened with 2 lines, copied from an article + after the link? on: June 05, 2018, 09:15:44 PM
I also asked this a few weeks ago.

Some people said that if that's all the user does (his whole post history consists of this kind of posts), you should report it and tell the mod to look at his post history.

Is it possible to restrict at least e.g. the Bitcoin Discussion thread itself to member rank and up? (to open topics, I'm not talking about posting now) Newbies would have plenty of room elsewhere to spam with new topics...
They would just move to a different board (and start spamming it). Then, we would need to restrict the other boards, until there is none left.
12440  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: twitter audit. I can pay with eth. on: June 05, 2018, 05:02:06 PM
1. Change your twitter username temporarily;
2. Do the audit with the new username;
3. Change it back to your original name;
4. Done! Free re-audit!
