What's with the specific number for profits? 1.2 and 1.8% are really odd numbers to choose from. If you want a catchy marketing slogan, I think "more than 1% daily profit" is a better term. Without the guaranteed promise of course, unless your product is just a ponzi.

Everybody is definitely interested in a good tool to make daily trading easier. If your software is built properly, it will definitely have its use. But if it is just a scam tool, you'll probably get a ton of negative feedback/trust. Try to share the code for the basic version, then you can gradually build a premium one. Going open source is a good idea, especially when there are many open-source tools available that do more or less the same thing without any shady promise.

The site sees to be online for most places right now, but currently down in Netherlands and Pakistan. Check it here: https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/[banned mixer]
Thanks for the info. Is the site reliable? I'm more familiar with other 'is it down for everyone or just me' tools, but it is nice to know another one. What's the chance the down part is just the DNS provider blocking access to a specific domain btw?

If your VPN allows it, you might be able to swap on over to a country where the site is working, if it's out in other locations. It's probably pretty rare though that the site will be out in your country but up in others.
If you have access to Tor it is probably better to try using ToR. And don't bother using a free VPN since most of the time they will collect your data regardless of what their privacy policy told you.

Nope, we just moved clearnet domain to another provider, because previous one couldn't handle ddos, now everything works fine.
Good to know that. Hopefully, it will be able to handle another attack without any problem.
1583  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Does blockchain have alternative keys or password? on: March 15, 2023, 11:52:10 AM
In some cases, blockchain systems also support the use of alternative keys or passwords. For example, some systems may allow users to set up multi-factor authentication (MFA), which requires users to provide additional authentication factors beyond just their private key, such as a password or biometric verification.
Are you referring to a wallet protection mechanism, like Electrum with its 2FA support? Using "blockchain" to refer to that is kinda misleading IMO. Things can get confusing pretty quickly if you start using wallet and blockchain interchangeably. As far as I know, there is no blockchain that requires biometric verification to publish your tx. Those features you describe are present in many wallets though.

1584  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to choose the best cryptocurrency payment gateway for your business? on: March 14, 2023, 12:13:06 PM
1) Support for multiple crypto coins :  The payment gateway should give the flexibility to buyers to pay in number of cryptos. Different people have their own preferences and it increases conversion rate for sellers.
This really depends on what your business needs. BTCPay server is quite popular even though it only supports BTC, which means many businesses are fine with their features at the moment. They also support plug-ins that help with fiat integration, plus they are open source that allows businesses to customize the application depending on their needs. Don't sacrifice security and reliability with extra altcoins to play with.

If you are running a popular platform and considering adding crypto payment with good control, it can be an option to just run BTCPay server without paying extra fees. Another good thing is that you can simply add another payment processor to process your altcoin payment if that is really necessary, without giving up any control over your BTC payment processor.
1585  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitget exchange on: March 14, 2023, 11:16:53 AM
I just heard about Bitget today, and when I searched it, Bitget doesn't listed on my Ministry of Trade country, so I will avoid it.
The list you're referring to also doesn't include Binance afaik, so it is not the best list if you want to compare the "trustworthiness" or reliability of an exchange. Most of them need active registration plus an office in the country, so it is understandable that some big exchanges would rather 'ignore' it and just use a proxy to get customers from the local market (like Tokocrypto and Binance for example). Still, I've never heard anyone mention Bitget either, so their marketing is certainly lacking for some markets. CMIIW.

There's no way to verify any centralized exchange, trade Bitcoin P2P with other person is also need a trust since you need to make the person will send his coins when you've send your coins first. The only way is using decentralized exchange or P2P which act as an escrow.
Other than making sure we visit the right address and judge whether a statement is wrong or not (which includes many things, such as marketing materials), I also think it is hard to 'verify' an exchange. A better term is probably to look for reviews from other members, or try it with a throwaway account if possible before you decide to use it as one of your main exchanges. It is impossible to remove trust completely, but at the very least we should be able to control our funds even if the platform we use went bust. I don't think an exchange fits that criterion though.
1586  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase to Suspend Binance USD (BUSD) Trading on: March 14, 2023, 10:45:23 AM
So, does this now mean that binance and coinbase are no longer friends and won't support each other in any further crisis in the future ? The crypto space is gonna get divided badly
I'm not sure how they become friends in the first place. I'm pretty sure if one of them goes down the other would just happily use that opportunity to increase its dominance in the market.

Btw, Im just curious whom do you guys support if you wanna have stables (just for trading purpose)? USDC or BUSD ? Im pretty confused but I do use binance myself here currently.
To be honest, all of them are shady as hell. If it is limited to those two maybe USDC is better, not to mention it has larger volumes in my preferred exchanges. Other than that, maybe USDT if it is not yet dead by the time I need to swap to stablecoin. That being said, trading BTC and altcoin directly is probably the best way to do it if liquidity is good enough to do that, no more hopping around stablecoins that can go down anytime.

Manteb info baru, tp saya msh sedikit rancu jadi recycle boardnya itu di aktifkan/enabled sebagai fitur yg muncul di interface kita (member forum biasa) atau seperti kata @Lauda (dari link thread yg agan kasih) itu sebagai "kekuasaan/kewenangan" hanya level staff keatas yg bisa lihat ?
Yang ane pahami sih hanya tersedia untuk member dengan role khusus gan, seperti yang sudah dijelaskan oleh beberapa member di thread tersebut. Namanya juga fitur untuk moderasi konten forum, kalau bisa diakses semua orang bakal kurang efektivitasnya. Kemungkinan bisa saja dibuat custom dengan membuat trash bin privat, dengan kata lain post yang agan hapus sendiri bisa direcover manual, tapi kayaknya di forum ini tidak ada hal tersebut.

Kecuali post yang agan hapus itu sangat penting, misalnya signed message, bukti kalau agan membuat transaksi, dan agak tidak bisa membuat posting lagi karena satu dan lain hal, dsm, kemungkinan besar permintaan recovery juga ga bakal diterima sih. Apalagi kalau kasusnya agan kurang 1 post untuk kuota sig campaign harian. Ga ada opsi lain selain bikin post baru, atau ya memanfaatkan draft sebelum posting sebagaimana ane bilang diatas. Atau ya menggunakan tool archive yang dibuat loyce di atas untuk membuat posting baru.

Tanya CS, saya dimintain tujuan penarikan+SS ke wallet mana. Duhh ngeri sampai hal pribadi pun harus sampe tau.
Sampe skrng masih pemeriksaan, rencana abis WD.... mau delete account tokocrypto.
Kalau user lain tidak mengalami hal yang sama, kemungkinan mereka melihat aktivitas akun agan mencurigakan. Ane bukan pemakai Tokocrypto jadi ga bisa memberi feedback, tapi rata-rata yang beginian sih melibatkan riwayat deposit dari alamat yang dilabeli address mixer (kalau tidak salah sudah ada yang share akunnya harus direview karena dia deposit lewat mixing address), gambling, dst. Coba dicek apakah input agan ada yang punya koneksi ke alamat" yang bersangkutan, karena bisa saja mereka menganggap itu semua aktivitas agan, walaupun agan hanya nerima bonus/dibayar dari orang lain misalnya. Bisa juga volume WD agan besar sekali sampai mentrigger flag khusus.

Sejauh ini di Pintu sih ane belum pernah mengalami kejadian serupa meskipun beberapa kali deposit dari hasil mixing. Entah Pintu yang lebih longgar aturannya atau mereka tidak menerapkan chain analysis seketat Tokocrypto. CMIIW.
1589  Local / Altcoins (Bahasa Indonesia) / Re: Adakah Mixer Untuk Altcoin? on: March 13, 2023, 03:01:18 AM
Karenaku tak begitu paham mengenai honeypot atau sejenisnya, menurut agan joni, apakah mixer yang kita pakai ini juga termasuk ke dalam itu?.
Honeypot bisa dibilang jebakan gan. Di ranah mixer, gampangnya mixer yang agan pakai itu dikelola oleh pemerintah/organisasi tertentu yang mencatat semua transaksi agan dan alamat yang agan gunakan. Apakah mixer yang agan pakai termasuk honeypot atau bukan agak susah kalau tidak ada bukti yang mendukung. Apakah ada potensi? Tentu ada, rata-rata tim mixer kan juga anonim. Sebagai antisipasi agan sendiri juga harus aktif melakukan aksi untuk memastikan informasi privat tidak terekspos begitu saja ketika menggunakan jasa baru ataupun jasa lama. Kalau mau benar-benar privat dan tidak bisa yakin plus risiko memakai jasa anonim terlalu besar buat kebutuhan agan, bisa melirik koin yang memang didesain khusus untuk privasi seperti monero.

Yang jadi pertanyaan sekarang ini, kenapa tidak begitu banyak mixer-mixer selain bitcoin?, padahal menurutku peluangnya cukup besar, karena marketcap altcoin selalu beriringan dengan bitcoin.
Saya sendiri tidak begitu yakin apa sebab pastinya, selain tentunya keuntungan tidak terlalu besar. Kalau profitnya gede ane rasa bakal banyak mixer altcoin di pasaran. Ada juga kemungkinan mendapatkan altcoin yang bersih dari riwayat transaksi orang lain susah, mengingat rata-rata menggunakan PoS. Mungkin member lain lebih tahu masalah ini, khususnya yang lebih berpengalaman daripada ane seperti agan etf.
1590  Local / Altcoins (Bahasa Indonesia) / Re: Cuan Besar dari Shitcoin on: March 13, 2023, 02:33:57 AM
membuang koin yang tidak memilki nilai moral.
Berarti dia buy sejumlah koin baru dan menahannya, setelah itu baru dia lakukan cuci gudang.
Pernyataannya agak gimana juga ya. Memang benar kalau rata-rata shitcoin itu bakal ga bernilai nantinya, tapi dengan penjualan ini berarti Vitalik sendiri mendapatkan keuntungan dari buyer yang entah sengaja beli karena tahu itu shitcoin atau benar-benar tidak tahu nilai yang sebenarnya. Opsi alternatifnya kalau ingin membuang token semacam itu mungkin ya dibiarkan di satu address khusus dan diinforkan kalau token yang ada di wallet itu semuanya shitcoin.

Sesuatu yang logis om. Meskipun belum tentu benar, tetapi itu seperti sebuah uji coba sebuah token dan sengaja dikirimkan ke addres Vitalik mengingat penjelasan dibalik pengiriman shitcoin tersebut secara cuma-cuma.
Memang marketing yang paling mudah dan bisa dibilang efisien mengingat hampir semua orang yang tertarik dengan kripto tahu Vitalik. Plus developer ga mengeluarkan duit sama sekali kecuali mungkin gas fee. Walaupun nanti bakal dibilang shitcoin sama Vitalik, ga ada masalah kalau udah dapeting volume dan untung setelah ngelaunch token.
1591  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Crypto Nest | The Home of Cryptocurrency Hardware on: March 13, 2023, 02:00:27 AM
Perhaps, offering a collection service or delivery to local collection points could be a solution for this? Alternatively, we could permanently delete customer information a short period after they've placed an order.
If the user has easy access to a local delivery point, that might be an option. Regarding personal information deletion, how would we verify that our info is deleted, and not stored in another storage for example? How would you process if a customer has an issue with their order too? Deleting after 7 days or a month can be a good idea, but again we won't be able to verify it. Even if we use an anonymous PO BOX to receive the order, you or somebody still has the records.

While trust is unavoidable if someone needs to use your service, perhaps you can think to solve this issue. If there is no reliable method to verify, personally I would not use your service even if I have to pay more to buy directly from Ledger/Trezor, etc. Adding another data point that can be exploited by malicious parties is a terrible privacy practice imo.
1592  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Trust wallet update on: March 13, 2023, 01:37:22 AM
Does this 'problem' still exist? I've been opening my Trust Wallet in the past few weeks but never got any notification. That being said, I've always updated it whenever a new version is available. Probably gonna uninstall it soon since I no longer find it useful.

Since you installed the correct genuine trust wallet at the first place, if the app prompt for an update, it will be genuine too. That's my understanding as a genuine app can't send a notification to update and overwrite with a scam app.
That's usually the case, but there is no harm in checking their social media or support if we never get any notification of a new behavior beforehand. Not to mention Android is generally not that safe with fake apps. God knows what new exploits are being used to inject an in-app notif with malicious code even if you download it from Play Store. Especially crypto apps that have been targeted many times by scammers.

Using the trust wallet without update for 2 years is not a good thing in my point of view.
AFAIK your phone will automatically download the latest update unless you turn it off or make an exception. So, if you never open your app for years, maybe you should uninstall it. You no longer use it anyway.
1593  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: My consternation regarding the monitoring of Bitcoin transactions. on: March 13, 2023, 01:04:23 AM
Other ways you can improve your privacy other than never reusing an address are to never post your wallet addresses online, use throwaway accounts and addresses if you want to participate in raffle/giveaway, utilize privacy tools like coinjoin, etc. Keep in mind that some implementation of coinjoin or mixer is not good, hence why exchange or other services can block and identify them. Make sure you do your research before you use them. As far as I can see, social media/forum posts are where others find out which users own what addresses.

That being said, if you do all of those things but you still use centralized services that require KYC, it would be meaningless imo. Try to use DEX or go P2P where KYC is not used and they have other means to make sure your deals are processed successfully such as using deposit/multi-sig. CMIIW.

Setahu ane juga tidak ada fitur semacam itu gan lopes. Sejauh ini ane pribadi memanfaatkan fitur draft kalau post & thread tersebut belum pernah terposting, jadi kalau misalnya ada apa-apa post yang ane tulis tidak hilang sepenuhnya. Untuk memanfaatkannya juga cukup mudah, kalau agan pake quick reply tinggal klik preview, tulis post agan, terus klik preview lagi sebelum posting untuk memyimpan di draft. Hasil draft postingan agan akan berada di https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=drafts selama kurang lebih 7 hari.

unfortunately, this is a new project that has been employed only once by an Iranian company and I cannot ask them since they will not be trying to solve my issue. this OS has 8 hashboards
But you have access to these devices, right? If not, how did you run the mining software? Remotely? I don't think you need permission or help from them to dump the log files unless it was gated in one way or another. Or do you mean the log files are customed for their needs so nobody other than them can understand the files?
1596  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Technology to aid bitcoin mining on: March 12, 2023, 08:23:43 AM
Also bitcoin is considered a commodity, moving from PoW to PoS would make bitcoin a security. So for bitcoin to move from PoW to PoS, it won't maintain its natural state of being a commodity.
So this is the reason Vitalik Buterin innovation on bitcoin was not accepted?
AFAIK using PoS does not mean the coin/token is a security, but it makes it easier to centralize it and that definitely does not sound like what Bitcoin was meant to be. I'm not sure what innovation on Bitcoin you're referring to here other than switching to PoS, since Vitalik does not contribute to Bitcoin development iirc. CMIIW.

I don't know if there will be a cheaper source of electricity in the nearest future which might enhance mining activities, but presently there it is no cheap electricity,which is the major challenge to miners.
A better wording is probably not every miner has access to cheap electricity. Some miners do have one, and some build one if my understanding is correct based on reading on this sub, but most are constrained by location, devices to generate it, etc. That being said, as mentioned above, even if it becomes cheaper and easier to find electricity, the market will likely adapt and change the equilibrium between difficulty and profit. So basically, the condition won't change much.
1597  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Japanese banks to launch, test stablecoins on ‘Japan Open Chain’ on: March 12, 2023, 07:52:57 AM
I mean why made new chain when you can find a dozen of it in crypto but if the chain is public is a progress. and this different from their CBDC right?
A quick Google translate shows that this is their own version of CBDC[1], that's how I understand it. I mean, the assumed use case of the pilot project and probably future implementation of this digital Yen are including but are not limited to:
- Payment networks for individuals and businesses like SWIFT network
- Any online payment that charges fiat from your credit card
- Digital stable coins issuance
- etc.

At the very least, this pilot might serve as a basis for the central CBDC. I can't imagine how troublesome it would be if they have many chains with different kinds of digital coins being issued by different parties. Unless they can converse one token to another in an instant or build a proper bridge that has good security, the risk of hacking and so on is too high IMO. Building a private chain is understandable to avoid unnecessary exposure, let's see how they handle international transfer though. I doubt other governments would agree to store their yen reserve on a chain owned by a single entity.

1598  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: MYSTERIOUS BINANCE WALLET on: March 12, 2023, 07:40:38 AM
You're jumping from one conclusion to another without any solid basis. Why would a wallet that has transferred many bitcoin mean that CZ or whoever owns that wallet is satoshi? Not to mention the age of that wallet is not that old, and the number of people or groups who have the ability to transfer that many are not limited to Binance/CZ either.

how it could be the heaviest transaction all time than other wallet..still can't figure it out...total in and out with spectacular transaction.
Check out other exchange addresses and you'll see more or less similar behavior. The number of BTC might be lower of course, but that doesn't really matter considering the number of Binance users is likely higher too. Unless you find an address that has solid transaction history to old satoshi addresses, it won't be enough to convince people that the address is owned by satoshi, especially if it is owned by an exchange.
1599  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Can you tell me which one you will choose and why? on: March 11, 2023, 02:54:19 PM
Same, my Bank is located in my city, I can get down to the location and make complaints, they take responsibility for the loss of funds, if the fault is from their side,  they can't exit and vanish, Binance could easily blame hackers for loss of fund and escape with the whole mess, 
I just remember there was a bank in my country that collapsed and the money their customers' store was never returned, or at the very least still in process, unless I remembered it correctly. I guess it also depends on where you live and how strict your government is regarding banks' security. At the very least, most public banks (the majority of the shares are held by the government) have the ability to get funding support just in case something went south, CMIIW.

Personally, I don't trust anyone, but it is not practical to hoard fiat in my house either. Luckily I can store crypto just fine with proper setup. I think most experienced crypto users in my country would do the same thing unless they are day trading. After the FTX fiasco and probably more in the future, I can see many users withdrawing their assets and storing them offline.
1600  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Intel Tapes Out Chips on 1.8nm and 2nm Production Nodes on: March 11, 2023, 02:33:38 PM
Intel has been missing a lot of deadlines lately, don't they? IIRC, their latest server & supercomputer process is delayed, or changed from H12024 to H22024. I won't be surprised if we will see the first 2nm product in 2025 or later. Leakers that I follow on Twitter also share more or less the same sentiment, that their GPU & CPU products are likely going to arrive later than expected.

Even if they arrive soon, is there any profitable mineable coin other than Monero?
