Their team section is completely disappointing. They have got 3 team member and 1 advisor. It is to notify everyone that they have used 2 team members photo on their website which are completely unrecognizable. These photo's are most probably AI generated or edited heavily to hide their actual identity smartly. Another 1 team member and advisor's profile photo is missing. Most interesting part is that you will not be able to find any profile link or source on their website to know about their team members . Lets take a deep look here,,, Team sectionNow lets see the real photo and let me know your opinion about this picture.

United States government has always been against using bitcoin. What is the reason?
They say bitcoin is used for illegal transactions. What do they mean by illegal transaction? Do you think they mean buying and selling drugs?
I don't think they worry about this. We all know drugs are easily bought using fiat.
Not only US government is trying to stop drug selling but also other countries are doing their best to bring a solution. If those countries law makers think that bitcoin will increase drug dealings than i am not gonna agree with them. If you want to make a better change on this ground than obviously you have to follow proper way to get best results. Lets think there is no bitcoin in the world then how those drug dealers are continuing their transactions everyday. They are using mulitple payment option for their deals otherwise it was impossible to run their businesses. Its urgent to find the source of drug and destroy them first. Without reducing its production and import you will not be able to find a proper solution just by creating laws to freeze bitcoin transactions. |

As a beginner on trading its a common thing to face this kinda situation. You should gather proper knowledge's about best trade able coins which are listed on your desired exchange. Choose best coins which are stable enough to give you handsome profits from regular trading. Don't run after sudden price bump. On the other way you can pick some coins by researching their project carefully and invest your fund for long time.
For new traders long term investment is much better than day trading. At the very beginning honestly its slightly tough to make profits from day trading. After building necessary trading skills and experience day trading can be a good source for making profits but not in the very early days.

" realbitconnect" what a cheap trick to plant money stealing trap again. I think you misunderstood something OP  (Just fun buddy). Yes they are "realbitconnect" the real scammer. I am damn sure that they are not gonna get any investor with this name but if they would keep it " fakebitconnect" then there could be little chances because people know that realbitconnect is a mega scam. Flag supported from my end. |

I have no idea why Yobit sets their maximum so high. All a 20 post maximum per day does is encourage people to post crap.
Its nothing but encouraging forum members to be a spammer. Actually its came from their cheap promotional mind which already proven couple of weeks earlier. Still they haven't got the basic knowledge of effective advertising. One quality poster's signature reflects thousand time better than bunch of spammers. |

Recently, I have often come across such sites. They were created recently, and developers can justify that the sale has not yet begun. A team photo is a photo from a site template. Well, it's good that you put your suspicion here. So, it will be easier for us to monitor their further actions.
Yeah, these guys are running their ICO with cheap photo stealing ideas. Entire team is fake and ICO is LIVE. Their whitepaper link is empty. All team members profile link have no redirect link. Its a complete garbage IMO. |

You guys haven't noticed that you're being trolled by OP? There was no problem to begin with. Yeah getting smell kinda like that on his above reply and you got it right. |

But confirmations Still slow if u Don't pay higher fee!
Bitcoin can borrow Something from xrp wich is speed
As you mentioned that you are facing this situation when you are making transaction with exchanges and confirmations are slow. At first i wanna let you know that Sometime it happens because all those exchanges integrate their API to generate btc addresses for every single deposit or withdrawal. Every user get their addresses separately and that maintain a serial to be confirmed with funds. So usually single wallet addresses are much more transaction load-less than merchant API users. You have to keep it on mind that time frame priority always depend on fees what senders are paying and without this system its not possible to handle millions of users transaction in one scale so swiftly. Making comparison with bitcoin and altcoin's transaction speed will not be a good idea if we just look at worldwide btc users community. |

Its really sad to see someone got scammed by this way  . After trying all the way to steal peoples fund those bitches are now active with fake mixer ideas. Basically i am not going to give all the credit to scammers for this incident where OP didn't feel it necessary to research properly about trusted mixer platforms before sending his btc. By the way at least he tried with the small amount to be ensure and got the real thing. In recent times its pretty much common to see this kinda scam, phishing, clone sites on the browser first page after clicking the search button. Normally they keep all the design exactly similar with the real one and slightly change the domain to make visitors fool. Their main target is to keep their sites on top of search engine recommendation by spending money for best SEO services. In some cases its really interesting to see their websites get visible above the real one. I have seen something similar for " Bittrex" and many traders lost their fund by visiting bittrex's phishing site as we all know. In this situation some new users like OP make their first mistake by trying to find best mixers through Google, Yandex or similar search. |

Its common that after revealing this kinda scammers face they got nothing but meaningless excuses. Its not a new drama mate tvplus006. Just we need to build the habit of fighting against them until they stop their argument.

I don't think that every single time crypto related positive news can open chances for traders actually. As a trader its not going to be a wise decision to wait for this kinda news every time to buy or sell. To be a successful trader you must have to build the knowledge of market analysis by your own. Whatever you say behind every investment experience always play a significant role and same for the crypto investment too.
In some cases genuine news make a big market influences and it happened so many times in the past. Nowadays some new cyprto blogs spread sudden news about crypto currency world to get subscribers on their website. From my opinion its important to choose the right and wrong one. Just follow the genuine one and blend it with your own prediction to continue a better trading

Thank you for your initiative in helping new people. Now I need real help. I am actively working on releasing some valuable content about Merit's acquisition, but these don't seem to get attention and improvement, but I still want to thank you. You, let the new person see the hope
I have already checked your post history and you are completely new on the forum. In one of your post you are asking for merit indirectly and it proves that still you didn't feel it necessary to read forum rules before starting your activities here. AFAIK getting merits isn't a funny game. Every single merit comes as a reward for good contribution. Expecting merits too early from your situation wouldn't be a good idea. For this time i have got only one suggestion on my brain and that is "Try to read forum rules before starting to post anything, anywhere" |

In current virtual world its pretty much tough to stay far from malware attack. Being agree with bob123 i wanna add some more for your kind information. Most of the times we get malware from unknown sources. Nowadays its pretty much common to get affected by unwanted redirecting, force click, phishing site, reward popup, force device update, force download and many more cheap trap of hackers. In all those cases their main intention is to plant an malware on your device because for getting coins hackers just need access not the device. Interesting thing is that after getting malware on your PC you will not find any difference or weird activity on your system. But during your wallet access it will make the damage just in couple of seconds.
You have to keep it on mind that core will always keep your coins in a strong protected zone but staying far from getting malware in your PC is your responsibilities. So in my suggestion obviously you can use bitcoin core as a secure wallet for storing your fund but before start using its important to keep your PC malware free anyhow. AV can't give your 100% security as far as i know where you have to be more careful about your browsing destinations.

The bounty participants seem not show any concerns so what's the need of debating on the issue.
Bounty participants are on a rare situation from where they are still expecting their rewards and that's why they are silent. At least we can't. I think it will not be a wise thing to take this issue just as a topic of debate. Its a matter of entire forum's fame now. If we forget this issue easily and let them flee away then its going to rise so many questions. I wish you got my point mate. Scammer is always scammer. It doesn't matter what he did in the past. I agree that participating bounty campaign is totally depend on hunters. But when someone got scammed in front of our eyes then i think its not a waste of time to reveal scammers face. It is not true that nothing can be done, we have on this forum their photos and names, and user xtraelv is have some extra info about their teams. They should be publicly marked as scammers, so they don't get a chance to cheat on someone in the future.
Completely agree with you. We can't let them do their fraudulent activities again. |

As a forum member i am so proud that i have got community friends like you all guys. From the beginning of my forum journey i always tried to tell about this forum is that we are not only community members here, we are a family together. I am blessed that i got same kinda behavior from all the members i discussed or seeking for help through PM. Because of my personal life or workload sometimes my activity wasn't so highlighted but whenever i engaged myself with anything that relates with forum i tried my best to serve. I will try my best to continue it in future too. I wanna say something for our newbies or upcoming users. Please don't lose your hope. Every single section of this forum is full with valuable knowledge's. Try to build your knowledge vault stronger by spending quality here. Be greedy to earn knowledge rather than earn money at the very beginning of your forum journey. I always believe that its not possible to buy experience through money. Whatever you learn from here its all yours. One small little tip I'll give you, is to try and resize images to a smaller format when you add them to a topic.
I've been using an open-source screenshot tool called ShareX for that, works great and also automatically uploads images to imgur, plus you can resize them from inside the app.
Thanks for the great advice mate. I wanna let you know that i usually use big images to make it easier for viewers. Sometimes they can recognize scammers and real persons face without visiting the source link  . |

Expecting our community members attention for a proper solution about this rising issue. Personally i think its not a simple issue to take quick decision without investigate the whole matter. After feeling its importance i feel it necessary to move this thread here.
I believe our experienced forum members will find a proper solution for this issue which will encourage worldwide crypto projects to continue hassle free bounty campaign on bitcointalk.
