1561  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Why not to buy inexpensive "exotic" open source hardware wallets? on: October 10, 2022, 07:14:15 PM
I feel safer with a Trezor due to its open source nature and the fact that it’s made by a reputable company, but if more attractive options are available, I would not hesitate to buy one. But I would look more at features than aesthetics. In the end, no one wants a hard-to-use or uncomfortable wallet, regardless of how polished or pretty it might look. The most important thing in a hardware wallet is that it is secure. Trezor is the most well-known hardware wallet, it is been around for a while, has a reputation for quality and security, and is endorsed by many cryptocurrency experts.
1562  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not all new Projects are bad, So take the Risk on: October 10, 2022, 06:53:55 PM
A lot of new project has yielded x50 of my investment to me most of the time,

"A lot" is a relative term. If we are talking about the entire industry, then I would say that two or three successful projects out of thousands of unsuccessful ones is not a lot.
So, if you consider the entire industry as a whole, then I would have to say no, not really.

I do not mean to discourage anyone from investing in new projects or coins. So if a new project has something that no other project has, it might work well. Each individual should always do their own research and make a careful assessment of the risks involved in any project. However, in my opinion, most new projects will fail. The number of ICOs is growing every day and many projects are more focused on getting funding than they are on creating a product that people want to use.

I'm getting ready to sell when they headline "Bitcoin is a great technology", when they say "Bitcoin is a terrible ponzi" I prepare to buy...

Yeah, the key takeaway here is: when we are in a bear market - don't despair! While this might seem like a toxic environment for Bitcoin adoption, it actually presents a great opportunity to get in at a lower price, especially since the fundamentals of cryptocurrency are stronger than ever before. In other words, the best time to invest in Bitcoin is when everyone is saying it is dead.
1564  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC price manipulation on: October 09, 2022, 09:49:10 PM
Is BTC price manipulation possible? Maybe, but it would likely take a very large sum of capital, or multiple people working in conjunction to do it. For all of the worry and concern, it is unlikely that any one person or organization really has any significant power to impact Bitcoin's overall value significantly. While BTC price may still be possible to manipulate, movements are far less pronounced than they were a few years ago. In the end, I think it is important to remember that someone will always be working to manipulate the market. But when it comes to Bitcoin, this is not an issue worth losing sleep over.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=24196.0

p.s. I haven't read the topic to be honest

That thread is from 2011. I am not sure if forum rules even existed back in 2011. Do you have anything more recent?
Why hasn't the thread been deleted yet? I do not know. I am guessing it is because no one has reported it to the moderators yet.
1566  Other / Meta / Re: Ban Appeal For naim027. on: October 09, 2022, 04:30:42 PM
I had no choice other than writing it here because of the ban evasion.
I think it's better if we rewrite the ban evasion rule. It should include Scam accusation with appeal option in Meta.

Either that or the moderators can make an exception in this case. It would definitely be better if this accusation against FlushCasino was in a separate thread and in a proper board for better discussion. I hope one of the moderators will look into this.
1567  Other / Archival / Re: Bitcoin or Netcoin ? on: October 09, 2022, 04:05:14 PM
If we look at the two nodes that were developed, then Netcoin was developed one day before Bitcoin. Netcoin on the 17th and Bitcoin on the 18th of August. I assume that the Netcoin nodes are only for testing the main Bitcoin Core network system. But Bitcoin is also developed in a testnet version so it does not require Netcoin as a test network. Another assumption is that someone is trying to imitate Bitcoin with the same node but a different name, namely Netcoin.

What the hell are you talking about? There is no "Netcoin node" or Netcoin test network. Where did you get that from?

If we check the netcoin.org site registration, the site registration year does not match what is stated in the code. One year after the code was developed, the website was registered.
Unlike Bitcoin, the year of registration of the website is 2008, while the launch of Bitcoin is 2009. This is more real than Netcoin.

There is nothing about the netcoin.org domain listed in the code. You got something wrong there. The only connection between the netcoin.org and bitcoin.org domains, as stated in the article, is that both domains were registered at the same time and with the same registry from Japan.
1568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why BTC can not zero at present time on: October 08, 2022, 09:37:45 PM
And there you have it. Because of the reasons laid out above, bitcoin is almost certainly going to stay in existence for the foreseeable future. And if BTC does meet an unfortunate end, it will likely be slowly supplanted by a better version of it or by another cryptocurrency anyway. It is always possible that some new technology will come along to render bitcoin completely obsolete at some point in the future - but that is true for many things that exist today too. No one knows what the future holds, but it is more likely than not that bitcoin is here to stay for at least a few more decades. Besides, bitcoin has experienced several massive crashes in the past several years, and its value has always recovered significantly. Sometimes the recoveries have been slow, but they have always occurred eventually.

You can explain to me well what jarimari and boropakna is rated due to the match

jarimari and boropakna who is given red for transaction

You are not making any sense anymore. Please be more direct in your questions, with correct grammar and spelling if you want us to help you.
Your accounts "jarimari" and "boropakna" have not been tagged for transactions, they have been negatively tagged for cheating in bounty campaigns by applying with multiple alt accounts.
1571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: They want your money by all means possible on: October 07, 2022, 09:04:29 PM
It is a pretty sad state of affairs for the cryptocurrency community at large when the vast majority of ICOs are nothing more than scams. Many crypto-enthusiasts have been living under the false belief that because the team  has proven to be legit and because the token is listed on exchanges, then they will never get scammed. But sadly, this is not the case. It is now more important than ever that investors take precautions and do their due diligence before investing in any coin offerings. Doing so will help ensure that you do not become a victim of fraud, but ironically, many investors still do not do this.

Before investing in any ICO, you should research the listed team members to make sure their past record is clean and that they look reliable. You must also ensure a scam-free smart contract by auditing it with a proper company, and yes, do your own due diligence on the project and its whitepaper inside out before investing even one satoshi towards it. While researching for ICOs, it is always a good practice to do your homework.

You just confirmed yourself that boropakna is your alt account, and since both accounts participated in the same campaigns, I am tagging you for bounty cheating.

Your mistake is that the winter number and the whole post is that no one's address and no one matches

There is no mistake. The only mistake is the one you made.

https://ninjastic.space/post/60966135

How do you explain this? This is proof that you posted with the wrong account (boropakna) and then posted the same content with a second account (jarimari) the next day. This is irrefutable proof that both accounts are controlled by the same person.

And you did it again in another campaign:

I'm wondering if @Stalker22 was meaning "use your reputation" as collateral? 🤔

That is correct. I was a bit vague there.

There are lenders who give loans without collateral, but only to trusted members of the forum, so in a sense, your forum account (that is, your reputation) serves as collateral.
1575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I find way to win on dice on: October 05, 2022, 04:20:27 PM
With all the gambling strategies being sold nowadays, it is not surprising to come across someone claiming to be making money by using martingale. It is a common misconception.

The martingale system is one of the most common betting strategies and is mainly used by inexperienced gamblers. The idea behind this method is that you are bound to win eventually and when you do, the payout will cover all your previous losses. However this method is a complete waste of time and money as you will never win against a casino in the long run.

The bottom line is: The martingale strategy is not the way to win in any casino game. It can comfort gamblers by winning their lost amounts back but they lose all in the end. My advice, do not try this method in any casino game!

When you become a high-ranking forum member with a good reputation, you can use your forum account as collateral for a loan. Forum loans are very hard to get, but if you qualify for one and make regular payments, it can help you build your credit history.

It's kind of interesting that there is still only one custodian, isn't it?

I do not know if it is interesting or not, because even if there were more custodians, I still would not trust this token with a lot of money.

I think you should understand that once you exchange your BTC for WBTC tokens, you no longer own the original bitcoin, but rather a token that runs on a completely different network, and that may or may not be worth as much as BTC in the future. If you buy WBTC, there is no guarantee that the value of WBTC will be equal to the value of bitcoin in the future. I do not know if this is possible or not, and I do not want to look into it, but what happens if the owner of the WBTC smart contract decides to rug pull?
1578  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: it can affect the price of bitcoin? on: October 04, 2022, 06:24:16 PM
it can affect the price of bitcoin?

The price of Bitcoin has fluctuated dramatically over the past few years and it is not going to stop anytime soon. This kind of volatility doesn't bode well for the future of Bitcoin as a currency, but that doesn't mean that there aren't ways to predict what could affect its price in the future. There are ways to make informed guesses and be prepared for these changes. These include how the market reacts to certain geopolitical changes, how Bitcoin continues to be used, as well as social and political attitudes towards the currency. This is why it is important to be informed about current events and news that affect Bitcoin. By keeping up with how the market reacts to these events, you can make educated guesses on how the trends will continue. You’ll also be able to take advantage of any opportunities that arise from these changes.
1579  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does everyone want bitcoin to be stable in price? on: October 04, 2022, 02:23:51 PM
<snip>. Bitcoin can become stable in value as a store-of-value, and it can do so without having a stable price.


Your explanation is making sense, and I understand the difference between price and value. Some products are over priced but undervalued which means a customer can pay high and get less value.
With respect to your last statement,  that bitcoin can become stable in value without being stable in price.
I know that bitcoin price is not stable, are you also saying that bitcoin value is also not stable for now?

I think that the Bitcoin market is still too young to be able to make such a conclusion.

For example, look at the gold price chart over the past few years:



Now imagine for a moment that gold is also a young investment asset and that there is no history to refer to, would you consider the value of gold to be stable? Would you consider it a good store-of-value investment?
1580  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think this is gambling? [Collectibles & Gambling] on: October 03, 2022, 09:29:03 PM
Yes, it's a form of gambling, but then again, many things in life are a form of gambling. For example, we gamble every day when we get into a car or take a bus to get to work because there is a possibility of an accident on the road. However, we accept these risks because we know that the chances of this happening are very small.

Personally, I would not do this if the chances of winning are very low. Instead, I might try to find a way to peek inside the package without opening it.
