I remember one time, bitamp was significantly behind the latest block mined so I'd check that first, perhaps when you logged in, it was the case? because It's a bit odd that there is no single transaction in your history. I would also check if I'm on the correct derivation path -- do you at least remember what address type did you use? what letter does it start?

Anyhoo, I hope you did not store much money on this wallet because it's web plus you have to enter your seed/private key every time you log in which I don't consider secure especially if you intent to login couple of times.
162  Economy / Gambling / Re: does betonline.com send an sms when you sign up? on: March 30, 2024, 03:28:41 AM
anyway, @Potato Chips, since betcoin.ag is betcoin.com, yes, I visited the website live(I needed to use VPN to access the website). sorry I didn't noticed that they domain has been changed and that you went all of that trouble trying to access betcoin.com.
No worries! plus that only took me a couple of minutes  Grin

Anyhoo. It would have been nice if they made the .com domain redirect to .ag since they spent a good amount of time on the .com domain.

It's interesting though that .com domain is expiring in a month or so
Expires On:2024-04-23

It'd be alarming if it went to a bad actor as it is likely gonna be used for phishing.

Even if you use a VPN and a fake phone number, they will find about it sooner or later.
How?
The difficulty would depend on your setup + how meticulous is the platform/providers + perhaps luck as well lol.

For instance, perhaps you chose a provider that leaked your DNS. Being on a non-dedicated IP could raise an eyebrow as well if several users have already used the same IP.

I'm not sure about the virtual/disposable numbers but I guess some could be keeping a block list of known problematic numbers which they could be distributing across some services. Cheap phone verification services like smspva also recycles their numbers into oblivion lol.

Casinos being operated by the same company may group user data as well which they may use for cross checking.

I don't think I have any preference on this, tbh. I'd say enjoyment mostly boils down with the people you're with.

For instance, I think someone in a bad mood, tries to cheat or an unbearably salty person would def ruin the vibe. Although, from my experience, the salt are more likely to rub on people when there is money at stake lols.
164  Economy / Gambling / Re: does betonline.com send an sms when you sign up? on: March 29, 2024, 10:59:36 PM
base on the terms and conditions I quoted from their website, yes. according to the terms and conditions any attempt to circumvent the restriction they have will result to account closure and balance forfeited.

Were you able to access betonline.com live or was this from a saved webpage or some sort? I can't seem to access the website even after trying with several locations lmao. Third party website checkers like urlscan do not work too.

Another interesting thing is, the last archived date on the wayback machine for this domain was on 2020, see: https://web.archive.org/web/20240000000000*/betonline.com

It seems down 🤔
165  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Philippines bans Binance on: March 29, 2024, 10:18:58 PM
Is there any Binance reaction? I just heard the news but am still unaware of Binance's reaction. 

AFAIK, no official statement from binance yet and local accounts plus services remains working fine as of writing.

I've seen a few screenshots of conversation with binance support but it's all canned answers lol, something along the lines of we are aware of the issue yada yada.

Are other exchanges still accessible there? If so, Binance may resolve the issue even if they need to pay a penalty. Because they won't leave their customers this way.

My guess is, negotiations weren't as smooth sailing since Philippine SEC said they will give binance 3 three months with a possibility of an extension depending on the feedback they get.
166  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Freelancers to hire: Coinlancer.net. Anyone? on: March 29, 2024, 09:02:58 PM
If we were to assume that it is not a scam and for example, use escrow or other security measures to collaborate with them, do you think - as you know similar services - that the prices are acceptable?

I'm not familiar with the average prices TBH, but I suggest going to a popular freelancing platform and compare the prices.

I noticed they have a case study, so they have probably completed some work: https://coinlancer.net/articles/case-study-franzi-gewuerzekammer

Maybe, or maybe not lol. It's hard to tell if it's an actual client or not just from the pictures.

If I may ask, is there any particular reason why you're leaning towards a relatively new platform? perhaps some may be able to suggest an alternative.
167  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What's your take on all CEX being regulated? on: March 29, 2024, 08:03:58 PM
If not DEX, then I think there is no way we can completely eradicate the issue of fraud from CEX except if they are in total compliance to government authorities.

It's impossible to completely eradicate fraudalent transactions because there is no system that accurately filters such transactions.

People have also been bypassing the KYC imposed by exchanges for years -- buying and selling of verified accounts are rampant. It'd be interesting how things would change with AI/deepfake tech rapidly improving. Faking documents has existed for decades but AI tech is expected to provide more accuracy with far less effort needed and probably will be more accessible to average people.
168  Economy / Gambling / Re: MEGA:PARI |SPORTS & CASINO| SIGNATURE CAMPAIGN on: March 28, 2024, 10:21:04 PM
A few years ago I deposited on this site via bank transfer. But It never made it to my account. I contacted them and they asked me for some proof, documents. I sent them all but they never answered me back. After a few month and countless tries to contact them again. I gave up on it because it was a small amount($20). Long story short, they scammed me. Don't trust this bookie.

Could you provide us supporting evidence for your claim?

TBH, I don't see megapari completely ruining their reputation for 20 bucks, so you'd probably get it back assuming there are no other underlying issues.
169  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Two Kucoin Founders accused of violating anti-laundering laws etc. on: March 28, 2024, 10:04:28 PM
TBH, kucoin has been lax with US users, so I'm not surprised US has come for their ass.

1. There was no geo-blocking for a good amount of time -- it probably came late.
2. Countless reddit posts of kucoin mods subtly encouraging US residents because KYC was not mandatory.

e.g.

OP: Can I kyc to protect my account. If i managed to grow a nice balance on one of my accounts i want my name attached . Is that available yet?
kucoin_moderator: US is not included on our KYC country list, however, KYC is not mandatory.
170  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: https://klaspi.com/ on: March 27, 2024, 11:41:47 PM
It's the typical too good to be true scam.

Technically, they're not giving you any money because the $9K is just a number on their website. Once you actually KYC and deposit money, consider your money pocketed because no genuine platform asks for a deposit first in order to withdraw their supposed balance.

172  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Philippines bans Binance on: March 27, 2024, 10:23:28 PM
So far we can still access Binance even on regular IP without the use of VPN.
Perhaps we need to wait for a couple more days? because PH NTC did give five days for the ISP's to comply

Update #2: The NTC is giving the Internet service providers (ISPs) no later than 5 days to block access to
But then again, a domain level ban is pretty easy to bypass.

That's what we will tune out next. After hitting Binance, will our government chase the other international exchanges? We don't know but I'd agree about them being ignorant and incompetent.
According from a previous interview, they apparently have a long list

For the other unregistered exchanges, the SEC said it still has a long list that will come out targeting them, but also doing a “wait-and-see” approach if they will register.
But a wait and see approach sounds like it's not gonna happen anytime soon lol. The next exchanges to be issued a warning were obscure to me as well -- OctaFX and MiTrade, or are they supposed to be popular for the locals?
173  Economy / Gambling / Re: JustCasino.io | Get the Best Crypto Casino Experience on: March 26, 2024, 08:51:17 AM
Well, a bit surprising and confusing while they said that they are going to close the service down sometime ago but they sent promo email to players lately. What promo email did you receive?
Just another deposit boost bonus which I have no use because my place is banned from any promotion on their platform lol.

Is it about the Crash and Win Network promotion which is a global promotion by Pragmatic Play or a different promotion that comes from the house (justcasino)?
Technically, it is by pragmatic play but from what I understand, participation is optional for casinos so it'd be odd to participate to a 3 month long contest if you're sunsetting your casino soon.

It is interesting though that announcement about a possible shutdown came on March 2 -- posted by Little Mouse -- and according from the fine print, this tournament started on March 6 unless it was posted late.

Quote from: Bitinity
Anyway if they have this Crash and Win Network by Pragmatic play that will run till early June, it seems that they have changed their previous decision about the closure. Or maybe they will wait until this promotion end first before closing down?

IMO, anything can happen at this point but because we're still early, I think it's more likely that they're just testing the waters.
174  Economy / Gambling / Re: JustCasino.io | Get the Best Crypto Casino Experience on: March 26, 2024, 06:57:37 AM
I was checking my emails and found justcasino.io sent me a promo email couple of days ago  Shocked

Further, they're also running a new contest on their website that will run for a couple of months

The Crash & Win Network Promotion will run from 6th March 2024 to 5th June 2024.

I think they have reconsidered sunsetting their crypto arm, at least for a while.

177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are crash games profitable??? on: March 25, 2024, 11:09:06 PM
Jesus I was so confused since it was my first time seeing crash described as an "aviator" game so I was really confused lol.

OP was probably referring to a particular crash game named "aviator" by spribe. Personally, haven't had much luck with the game in question. I think, the highest multiplier I've seen was around 20x to 30x during my sesh. But nothing surprising since it's all about luck at the end of the day.

And continuing in this system will make you an addict,, protect your financial life at all cost, stake what you can afford to lose and be disciplined

Yeah, all about self control and/or financial literacy. mom has been doing lotteries for a decade or so and no signs of addiction since shes only paying with pocket change.
178  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Kucoin becomes the first FIU-compliant global crypto exchange in India on: March 24, 2024, 11:58:58 PM
What changes it will create? The people who are using crypto they are using some kind of exchanges that they need to do their transactions either letting it to know to the authority or without letting them know.

Oh there's surely gonna be weighing of options because of the high taxes which AFAIK remains.

But I'd like to make an emphasis about the future. Imo every known global exchange making an exit does not place the country in a good light. I also think, it's only a matter of time until the decent no-mandatory kyc exchanges removes such rule and the only ones with laxer kyc policies are the nearly obscure exchanges. If it were up to me, I'd choose a reputable exchange with mandatory kyc any day. NO KYC exchanges are still pretty limited in terms of liquidity + market products available -- a lot are p2p and instant swaps.

By the way, does it means kucoin token will have stronger value

I suck at price speculations lol. But I do think we need to watch more. IIRC, when coinbase tried to explore the indian market, it was like a whirlwind, they exited shortly -- only took them a year or so?

If Kucoin is approved, does this mean that we may hear the return of more exchanges and their approval, or is the government’s plan to maintain only one or two exchanges?

IDK lol. I'm hoping for the first one tho and maybe a laxer approach from the regulatory bodies.
179  Economy / Gambling / Re: Parimatch Aviator- Play cash game in India on: March 24, 2024, 11:19:55 PM
Also if he says it is an aviator gaming site for India, why does it have a Curacao license and not an Indian license?

They most likely don't have one hence the off-shore license.

Quick lookup and laws can differ per state in India. Further, online gambling appears to have plenty of gray lines on a legal standpoint:

even though Indian casinos cannot promote or have sites that promote online gambling games such as casinos, sports betting, and bingo, it is not illegal for non-Indian casino companies (so-called offshore companies) to have sites that focus on Indian players. The only legal requirement is that the offshore casinos have to offer Indian Rupees as a payment method for Indian players. Although this is not accurate anymore since January 2020 as the states Telangana and Andhra Pradesh banned all online gambling for Indians.
180  Economy / Gambling / Re: GETSATS.CLUB, a new NO-KYC, lightning network, onion casino | LIMITED FREE BET on: March 24, 2024, 10:00:16 PM
I suggest listing your casino on https://lightningnetworkstores.com/ -- it's probably the most popular merchant directory for anything LN. Folks interested could also find exchanges there that does btc native/altcoins to BTC LN swaps.

In addition, I also think it'll be a nice touch if the scratch surface is an image rather than a solid color.
