En fait F2b a fait une section LN dans son post sur les wallets
Son comparatif est interessant https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3033260.msg61374555#msg61374555

Pour ma part j'utilise Electrum (qui n'est pas mentionné dans l' OP) et j'en suis globalement satisfait.
En revanche ca semble encore compliqué de faire des mises à jour avec des channels ouverts, il faut donc veiller à bien les vider à chaque fois avant.

La Corée du Sud serait en train de devenir un veritable hub de tourisme sexuel pour femmes occidentales amatrices de k-pop et de dramas coréens, d'après le témoignage de cette journaliste-influenceuse.
La vaste majorité des touristes occidentaux à Seoul serait même désormais composée de femmes célibataires venues chercher "l'âme soeur" d'après son récit.

Quote
Upon traveling to South Korea, I expected to find many such pairings: western men with women from Seoul

HOWEVER

I was SHOCKED to find the OPPOSITE

I have seen literally HUNDREDS of western WOMEN here, in groups or doing solo travel, searching for and finding MEN!!
[...]
I was surprised to find next to 0 western men in hostels that I visited.

Instead, hostel travel in Korea is dominated by slightly socially “off” western women who stay in all day watching K-dramas or working remotely and prefer to come out at night. To hunt for a man

Any night of the week, western women can be found on Seoul street corners or in parks, waiting patiently, staring at guys

When a guy finally takes her out, the women can often be very touchy, which makes these men freeze up uncomfortably and pull out their phones avoidantly
[...]
Often, western women are very sexually aggressive and SCARE the Korean men who are not culturally accustomed to such behavior

Il y en a peut-être davantage sur le forum anglophone ? Il y a même l'élection de Miss Bitcointalk. Mais comment arrivent-ils à ces stats, c'est ça que je me demandais ...
Surtout ce sont des données relatives au public qui consulte, qui ne participe donc pas forcément. Et ça peut être des visites dues à de simples requêtes google notamment (Même si ça me semble tres élevé comme chiffre malgré tout).

En revanche je ne suis pas sûr que l'élection de Miss Bitcointalk soit un très bon exemple, parce que jusqu'à preuve du contraire personne ne contrôle les petites culottes avant de décerner le prix et quand je lis ce genre de post, je me pose des questions.

Has it really been four years? It's hard to believe that what started as a practical joke all those years ago would get quite this out of hand, but here we are. It has led to so much mischief and controversy of the sort perfectly becoming of a fox: a gay prostitution and/or pornography scandal, me winning Miss Bitcointalk twice despite confusion* as to whether I qualify, and many more shenanigans both public and private (including this one). None of this would be possible without the support of my loyal band of foxhole felchers, followers, and wannabes (you know who you are). And so, as promised last year, I am celebrating by offering a new peek into everybody's favourite foxhole. (Peek linked offsite because SENSOR SHIPS.)

*This thread should hopefully eliminate all pre-existing confusion and replace it with exciting new confusion. Wink

Une autre façon de diminuer le risk est d'échanger ses eth contre des btc. Smiley
La question qui se pose c'est est-ce que ça ne serait pas justement la tactique du hackeur? Il se concentre sur ETH et épargne délibérément BTC pour l'instant, pour pouvoir convertir ses ETH volés en une crypto qui garde un prix stable en cas de crash de l'ETH dû au retentissement de ses hacks? Mais une fois qu'il aura vidé ce qu'il peut vider sur ETH, rien ne l'empêchera alors de s'attaquer à des wallets BTC...

They is a saying that; “what you don't know is bigger than you". We all know about hardware wallets and different kinds or types of wallets; cold and hot wallets etc and because we know these things we assume that the millions of people into the cryptocurrency market are aware of them too. I've had an argumet with a close business partner and he meant it eye ball to eye ball that blockchain.info is the best wallet and even the only wallet in the cryptocurrency market. And he draws the line because the name began with blockchain. I had to explain to him that they're other wallets like Electrum which are better than what he thinks is the best. A week later after doing his research he came back to me and testified that he was wrong. I understand the feeling but what you know, others don't know a tip of it. That's why when they make these mistakes they tend to leave the market because it seems complex to them.
It's a nice story but unfortunately Electrum only supports one cryptocurrency currently : Bitcoin, and they don't seem to be ready to add any other cryptos for now, so it can't replace multi-coins wallets like the one of your business partner or Trust Wallet. Today, if you want to avoid leaving your crypto assets on platforms you need to have a multi-currency wallet. Unfortunately only few of those available are really reliable and trustworthy.


I do not know on what basis you made such a conclusion, but the official Trust Wallet website states that "Trust Wallet is a community driven, open-source, multi coin crypto wallet" - https://trustwallet.com/developer/ Are they blatantly lying to us?
It's not fully open source even if important parts of the code are publicly available. But if you can't build yourself the app from the code you can't be sure which code is actually used inside of the wallet you have downloaded.

What’s bet drinking in your statement? Also by how far minimum bet you can get when using IDR currency since INR already provides a minimum bet that is already way too low for me compared when I used the typical currency such as USDT and Bitcoin.

Perhaps you need to gather your community that use IDR currency to play in livecasino since the demand is what makes the casino add the currency. Encouraging your peers to play here will be an easiest path to see this currency on the casino if you are that interested on using it here. Honestly, 0.1$ minimum bet is already sufficient for me since play way low than that will give you more exposure on house edge.
Sometimes it's not a bad thing to be more exposed to the house edge, especially if you are trying to get a bonus, a promotion or a position in a tournament because it can let you avoiding to go bankrupt before reaching your goal, so I wouldn't be against games with a minimum stake below $0.1. CMIIW but you can find few of them when you play with Japanese ¥en JPY but it's still worth around $0.07-$0.08 though.

I agree, it is much safer to use a licensed casino than a reputable non-licence casino because the latter is not bound by the law.
It depends on the issuer of the license and on the gambling authorities monitoring the compliance with the requirements of the license. So if the casino is licensed in an european, north american, or even a small western country you can be rather confident but if its license comes from a carribean or a small latin american country, I don't think it's highly relevant to consider it as more trustworthy than a reputable non-licensed casino, because it's more likely to avoid any trouble if it pays the price to the good guy.

Not only you. I believe most forum users don't know what is hiding behind their TOS Power. Their TOS is their power. I had a little conversation with o_e_l_e_o here, and then I decided to create a new thread to give a warning to forum users about the TOS of Centralized exchanges. You can find it here; Do you know what is hiding behind the Centralized exchanges User Agreement?. Guess what? Very few people read that, and I don't think people are interested to know what is hiding behind their TOS.  

Still, I hope people will search on the internet, and I hope they can find my topic in one of the search results. I can scream and write TONs of words on the internet, and people won't read and hear me until they suffer from the same thing. At least you read and responded here. Many people don't.

You always have options on the market. Centralized Exchange's trading volume is huge (Over 99%). You shouldn't hold your funds there. You can use them to exchange your coins unless you do not have any options out there. Still, I would suggest avoiding them if you can.
It's an interesting thread but we shouldn't confuse theoretical legal terms with reality IMO. Exchanges need to protect themselves against abuses and lawsuits but they mostly need to make business, and fortunately you don't attract customers with nasty commercial behaviours, bad reputation or scammy practices.
For example, you've quoted the ToS of Binance in first place but actually they seem to be far away from applying those terms so strictly according to the CFTC.

Quote
104. Internally, Binance officers, employees, and agents have acknowledged that the
Binance platform has facilitated potentially illegal activities. For example, in February 2019,
after receiving information “regarding HAMAS transactions” on Binance, Lim explained to a
colleague that terrorists usually send “small sums” as “large sums constitute money laundering.”
Lim’s colleague replied: “can barely buy an AK47 with 600 bucks.” And with regard to certain
Binance customers, including customers from Russia, Lim acknowledged in a February 2020
chat: “Like come on. They are here for crime.” Binance’s MLRO agreed that “we see the bad,
but we close 2 eyes
.”

105. Lim’s internal discussions with compliance colleagues illustrate that Binance has
tolerated Binance customers’ use of the platform to facilitate “illicit activity.” For example, in
July 2020, a Binance employee wrote to Lim and another colleague asking if a customer whose
recent transactions “were very closely associated with illicit activity” and “over 5m USD worth
of his transactions were indirectly sourced from questionable services”
should be off-boarded or
if it was in the class of cases “where we would want to advise the user that they can make a new
account.” Lim chatted in response:
Can let him know to be careful with his flow of funds, especially from darknet
like hydra
He can come back with a new account
But this current one has to go, it’s tainted

106. Lim’s instruction to allow a customer “very closely associated with illicit
activity” to open a new account and continue trading on the platform is consistent with Zhao’s
business strategy, which has counseled against off-boarding customers even if they presented
regulatory risk. For example, in a September 2020 chat Lim explained to Binance employees
that they
Don’t need to be so strict.
Offboarding = bad in cz’s eyes.

My personal view is that it's about increasing profits. Once companies are grown enough, they will try to increase ARPU. Get user growth by giving incentives first, once platform is grown big enough, bank off the growth.
I don't think it's the right explanation because the turn-over at online casinos is very high since players making profits without getting banned or restricted are few and the number of people bearing losing money over years is small too. It means they constantly need to attract new players (that's why they are still heavily promoting their casino here, with such a large signature campaign). But unfortunately for them they've recently been banned from Twitch, and they don't seem to be welcome on Youtube too, it seems streamers were very good at converting gamers into casino gamblers though. So they've lost their main marketing mean, and testimonies showing unprofessional or dishonest conduct from them are accumulating over internet, in top of that. Their business model can't be as profitable as it used to be then.

Quote
The client becomes loyal to the company after making at least six deposits. However, only 20% reach the sixth deposit, that is, one out of five people: this is where a considerable loss of money happens. From the moment of making the first deposit to making the second deposit, gambling companies lose half of the players.

Bitcoin price prediction bets will close for that you should bet from now only a few hours because the outcome odds are quite interesting for a price prediction of $ 25,001 - $ 27,500 with ODDS 3.73 and $ 27,501 - $ 30,000 with ODDS 2.24 I will choose $ 25,001 - $ 27,500 because it looks like the weekly charts will experience bitcoin price drop below $25k, I'm not sure bitcoin price will be above $30k.

But everyone returns to their respective predictions, right now what we see is the movement of the bitcoin price is falling so to bet on bitcoin price predictions it's best to do research and analysis first because there is still time to do that before betting or more easily betting for FUN price predictions easier to predict because the price movement will not go beyond the price of $ 0.005001 - $ 0.007500
You could even place a bet of the same amount on the 2 ranges together because the smallest odds of the two, is above 2.00. It means even if the 27,501-$ 30,000  range wins, you would make profits, because you would more than double your stake while losing it one time on the other range. Then you would get 1.24x your stake at the end, and 2.73x if the $ 25,001 - $ 27,500 range wins.

A correction which is valued about $4000 is not small and Bitcoin will need a few days to show its next movement. If you are unsure what will be the next market movement, you can wait for the confirmation. I believe it will become more clearly in next 7 days.

You should not hurry with your bet. Wait for a while and make your bet which should be based on some better thinking and signal from the market.
No he can't way more, neither you, because if you still haven't noticed it, bets on cryptocurrencies prices usually close one week at least before the end of the month. So it currently only remains a bit less than 15 hours to place your last bets on BTC, ETH and FUN token prices, you have to hurry up. Last soccer bets of the week on EPL, La Liga and Serie A are also closing in very few hours from now.

1293  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What could make an exchange to seize users assets on: April 22, 2023, 11:59:05 PM
Generally the exchange authorities do not easily freeze the funds of their customers or users, but sometimes for special reasons they can temporarily freeze the funds of the customers.
Personal information ,If a customer has placed the personal information wrongly i.e. if he has submitted wrong information while doing KYC, then the exchange authority can freeze his funds temporarily.
Illegal funds,If a user transfers funds from an illegal source, the exchange authority may freeze the user's funds permanently.
Location,Many times, if the user's location is in the restricted list of the location of the exchange, then the exchange authorities can temporarily and permanently freeze the funds in the user's account while transferring funds to that location.

@OP, According to the information provided by you, the female user has committed any illegal activity against the Coinbase rules or against the terms and conditions under which the exchange must be used. Because of this, the Coinbase authorities have permanently frozen the user's account funds.
I agree with you, for unknown reasons some people are spreading FUD against them and all other reputed CEX but actually they are very unlikely to seize your funds just because you're using them to play at a casino, to buy adult content or some medications with them. They can close your account, but they are very unlikely to seize your funds for that, otherwise we would be seeing many complaints against them in the Scam Accusations section. They may lock your funds if the KYC is missing, but it's very uncommon to happen for an improper use or because they have been sent or received from a blacklisted address.

Well I see 4 whole pages of talkings here, but unfortunately no DT bothered to leave a feedback to the OP account, at least neutral, saying it's very likely to have been hacked, and the likely true account owner admitted that some of his private keys could have been compromised. What will happen, if the hacker one day manages to recover the account, deletes the last posts regarding the hack and uses it to scam people trough PM or subsections not used by people remembering the case ?

Bpip doesn't even say that the account is still locked https://bpip.org/Profile?id=93844

the dude is not even close to looking like jake paul(at least that is how I see it), the only resemblance I see they have is having blonde hair and a similar looking beard. I don't know why, but why do I feel like this fight was just a stunt to garner more attention for the incoming fight? popular fighters like them getting into a fight like this is very risky and could get in a lot of trouble.
No I don't think it was a fake fight because it obviously happened into an open street. And US federal and local laws are very strict for this kind of things usually, Nate Diaz could be prosecuted for that and put into jail along with being condemned to pay a very high fee. In addition the guy really seem to have finished unconscious, and it's hard to fake a thing like that. Nate Diaz is known to be an aggressive and nervous brawler on top of that.
1296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you agree with ChatGPT on the club that might win the premier League? on: April 22, 2023, 09:13:33 PM
If I'm not mistaken, the AI is a bit stupid in this case and anything that has anything to do with anything after the end of 2021, because it has data that only goes back to that period. At the moment when the AI is "online" in the sense that it has all possible data, then it will probably be able to give much more accurate and precise answers.

This could be a problem for bookmakers, because players will have a very good tool for analyzing matches, and thus a greater chance of winning.
Actually the new version of Bing is integrating the ChatGPT technology, but you can only access it through the Microsoft browser, MS Edge.
If you ask the same question to this tool "Which football club do you think will win the premier league this year and why ?", you will get a very different answer than the one of the OP, way more accurate and up to date actually. But if you look at the arguments, you will see it is still far from being able to beat any serious bookmaker for now though.

in comment of this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0rNhLySb0k

do you think, this is possible or they are already doing it? popular game providers like evolution, pragmatic, etc.
This video is interesting but they don't tell where come from those footages. I'm sorry but if they've found that a live casino provider is cheating players they have to clearly say who is it. They can't just suggest things. I wouldn't be surprised if a small land-based casino was rigging its games despite the house edge giving them a guaranteed income actually, but I highly doubt a big casino provider could do it, because it would be a suicide. Millions of players are gambling at those casinos around the world and can record their games. And in addition of instantly killing their business and having to close their doors they would have to face lawsuits from the online casinos they are working with, along with the final customers.

It seems that Nate Diaz fought a Jake Paul's lookalike in the streets of New Orleans last night. Even Dana white thought it was the real Jake Paul when he watched the video during a live stream from Adin Ross on Kick, while playing Blackjack at a land-based casino. Nate Diaz chocked the guy until he fell unconscious and heavily dropped onto the ground.

Quelques hypothèses évoquées (certaines farfelues) :

Metamask failure ?
zero-day vulnerability disclosed in chrome ?
password manager hacks (LastPass, KeyPass, ...) ?
some backdoor in some wallets ?
a widespread malware that searches for seedphrases on devices ?
ChaosGPT ?
Nort Korea ?
access to clipboard history, via an extension ?
brute-forcing keys ?
Y'a un autre truc qui je pense peut produire un siphonnage massif un jour et qui concerne BTC également, c'est l'archivage par inadvertance (ou parce que la personne ne se rend pas compte de ce que c'est) de sa seed dans un dossier "OneDrive" de Windows. Le manque de warnings de Windows à ce sujet peut rendre le phénomène massif dans les années à venir. Un hackeur ou un employé mal intentionné pourrait alors accéder aux seeds archivées dans le cloud OneDrive.
