If i encrypt a message (either using symmetric or asymmetric encryption), it's either only the receiver that holds the private key that can decrypt it (asymmetric encryption) or both sender and receiver can decrypt it (symmetric encryption). The medium you use to post an encrypted message doesn't matter for the technical encryption and decryption part. If you send an encrypted message over an non-ssl encrypted connection, it should still be secure (if you chose a good encryption scheme)... The only difference between sending it over an ssl encrypted connection and a non-ssl encrypted connection is that in the first case, only you and facebook/twitter can decrypt the package going over the network, and in the latter case anybody can read the packages going over the network... But the encrypted message is posted on a public page anyways...

That being said: if you use a platform like twitter or facebook, you are right... It's possible they won't like it when somebody posts encrypted text... I don't know... that's completely up to them... Also, if you don't take the proper precautions (like using tor, or a vpn), they'll know the ip of the sender and the receiver (unless you use a thirth party to post encrypted messages and receive them... In that case the thirth party probably has your ip).

This idear seems like a big hassle to me... Why put a big company that keeps loads of logs in the middle between an encrypted communication channel?
I'm satisfied with this explanation, I lack some knowledge about the decrypt part so thanks for sharing. It thus look like something that will work out, I will definitely spend more time on the project before spending a penny.

I like new innovations, I do, but some needs to be questioned because this days many are running after new ideas and they are ready to throw money at any, that's not me, will it work? I have every right to ask questions, so famz please follow me on this ... A minute of your time is all I ask

Have your heard about Mask Network? With Blueish icon and smily face?



This project claim it allows it's users to Send encrypted messages over Twitter and Facebook, it acts as a bridge between the internet and a decentralised network.

Trying to run decentralised encrypted messages on twitter and Facebook which are both fully centralised doesn't make sense to me, this can make the project a target from the centralised side of power hungry entities, you know what I mean.

It will become a threat faster than anything, like I've said, this could be a childish guess, maybe there is more I don't know but imagine sending encrypted messages on Twitter which can't be traced, they aren't gonna like that.

What's your take on this? 🤔🤔🤔
1623  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What's your opinion on the future of Decentralised exchanges on: December 08, 2022, 08:42:07 AM
Will decentralised exchanges get more attention now that FTX secrets is all out? Will people now trust decentralised exchanges more than centralised exchanges? Cos the only thing still standing tall right now is Binance, I believe this is the only CEX people still give full face 😂  but it seems like Uniswap and Pancake will take the lead in near future?

I think by now you should have heard about the FTX project as well which is one of the latest scam that has happened on recent time, should in case you don't know the forum had got over 20 threads already that talks about this same scam with FTX bankruptcy, my advice for you is to reduce your hunt for crypto projects being a newbie because we have them in numbers failing already, as far as they are concerned we regard them as centralized projects and many of their kinds have also fallen in the past, why not create a start with bitcoin to create your own learning ground, just a subtle advise.
I am not a crypto newbie

FTX is not a decentralised entity and that says it all, if you read my question very well I stated that how risky are Decentralised Finance projects, FTX is a crypto exchange running as a fully centralised platform.

Bear market is not a easy season, many will make promises of buying and holding some good projects but as time goes on and things look even more brutal they will eventually give up.

Bear market is best for those who are fully prepared for whatever may happen, that's why it's safer to always invest only what you are ready to lose.

It's not going to be easy.

How risky are Defi yield projects?

If you are a crypto fanatic please look into Umami Finance for me and drop your opinion, any will be welcome and if you have a better one do let me know, I just want me a serious Defi project for long term hold.

I have a question and I don't want to create a new topic for it.

Is there any rating website or platform that rates gambling websites? We have coinmarketcap for crypto projects and people trust top 100 projects that those under top 100, is there something similar with gambling and online casinos?
1628  Economy / Economics / Re: Share Your Best Money Advice Based on Personal Experience on: December 07, 2022, 07:49:16 AM
Do not be afraid to make mistakes, this is the best way to grow, people are stagnant in life because they are too afraid of making mistakes, they want the top notch advice that will set them up for life but that's impossible.

I found my own way the day I stop listening to people, I was anxious on every move thinking maybe I will fail? Maybe this won't favor me? Maybe this isn't the place I should be.

In the end I just zero my mind and took the bull by it's horn
1629  Economy / Economics / Re: Central Bank of Nigeria to limit cash withdrawals on: December 07, 2022, 07:06:39 AM
This new set of rules will only work on the poor to mid range business men, what about the rich? What about those politicians? What about musicians? What about those who always spend big every blessed days?

I doubt this will fix the problem of the country, the truth is always bitter, the problem of Nigeria is the people, the way people treat themselves in that country shows that everyone is not suitable for any powerful post.
1630  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about Dogechain (DC)? on: December 06, 2022, 07:32:46 PM
It is expected that many people will underestimate Dogechain, doubts and questions will arise, but I wonder why such projects always prevail in the end, it's all shiba inu once again.

No one can tell you where to invest your money, the choice is all yours but I believe that Dogechain is worth the try.

Whatever Elon Musk says is his own opinion, he is not a crypto guru but a business man, even crypto gurus can't predict bitcoin right.

I won't believe in whatever people are saying, nothing is going to happen until Bitcoin halving is near the corner. I heard that Elon Musk is bringing some altcoins to twitter payment I think that's why he is bullish.

Op I will like to know more about the information you gathered about mining on a Xbox series x because I have one and I got tired of it, now I play games on PC, I know that the series x have a very good GPU but I can't find any information about using it for crypto mining.
1633  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Casino tokens such as BFG, OWL or TFS on: December 06, 2022, 08:50:54 AM
what are your assessment to HUNNY tokens?
they have 65% APR here are the list of pools https://hunny.finance/#/pools
found out they have multiple projects like hunnyplay.com and hunnypoker.com

you can see i'm wearing the signature. its logical to just shill it here presumably the users in this thread are more than likely interested to casino tokens like this one. history shows that the price ATH last year was $1.36. now its down to $0.006. it must be the bottom.


From 1.36$ to 0.006$? Bro that's scary, most good altcoins withstand 0.01$ minimum from such ATH, this shows that gambling tokens are more volatile than mid range popular altcoins, anyway this is also a good entry point but God only knows if price will see ATH again in future.
1634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is pay to earn considered gambling? on: December 06, 2022, 07:11:46 AM
It's gambling from one part and a competition from the other part.

When a group of friends come together I challenge themselves using money ( winner takes it all ) we easily consider this as a gamble.

when it's more international where a company decide to bring top players together to compete and win a price we all call it a competition but honestly it is still a gamble 🎰.
1635  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Someone sent ERC20 from my cold storage on: December 05, 2022, 07:24:18 AM
If this is just an old way to scam you then better not to look at it, or ignore it because many says if you make transaction about that specific token, then your details will be corrupted and you’ll get hacked.

Those who do it know what they want to achieve and it is something that will not favour the wallet owner. I have noticed similar thing in my trust wallet and it used to scare me until I understood that since am not claiming the suspicious tokens nothing bad happens to my wallet. I have learned to just ignore it whenever I notice it nowadays. Criminals everywhere online seeking who to swallow.
You did the right thing, also trust wallet devs are aware of those scam tokens so they won't appear in your wallet as a valid token, you won't even know that you have such token unless you use ether scan to scan your wallet address.

I'm going to use the same Binance exchange as an example.

If you are trying to buy BTC secretly do not use your credit card to purchase, do not use your bank account either.

Use P2P on Binance exchange, you will send Money from your bank account to someone you are paired with, the receiver will drop their bank details for you and you send them fiat and they will give you BTC in return.

e.g you send 100$ in Fiat you will get 100$ worth of BTC.

Do not write any crypto related words in the Description/ Comment space, this is the only way that your bank will know that you purchased crypto.
1637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / How true is an NFT pow based project? on: December 04, 2022, 02:10:39 PM
I don't know how true is this rumour, I heard from someone that there are few NFT projects that you can mint using proof of work/ GPU to achieve? Is this true?

It sounds crazy that I turned that person away because it sounds like a red flag to me, what do you think 💭  .
1638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's with the Star Atlas rally ? on: December 04, 2022, 07:58:10 AM
In a bear market if a project keeps following their development roadmap and also bringing in new partnerships they will be noticed and it can boost the project's adoption.

Don't get carried away with the recent pump for we are still in a bear market so downside is very possible, there is a lot of time left for more accumulation. As for those selling their POLIS tokens you are doing it wrong.

This project is very active and there are few others like it, e.g Everdome and Illuvium.

Good luck everyone.  👍

I've been in the crypto space since 2019, and have Been on all the highs and lows, I recently won 2.2M on Stake.com. I have no idea what to do with it or how to use it. I'm thinking about starting to make a really good affiliate book on stake, as I noticed it can get really good, Of course, I would be doing giveaways leaderboards and all that, I also need help to navigate a bit as I'm new here, Heard of bitcointalk in 2020 but it looked really confusing, Still kinda is  Cheesy . Anyways If you guys have any suggestions of what I should do let me know, Cheers. Smiley
Isn't stake a gambling platform? If thats a yes bro use that money to start a business and invest some in crypto like Bitcoin and few others.

Just because you won that 2.2m doesn't mean stake website will be alive like Bitcoin.

If your hands are itching then write something about Bitcoin, build books about Bitcoin, not a gambling website that could ruin your rep in future.
1640  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coinbase wallet stops support for XRP, ETC, XLM and BCH on: December 03, 2022, 09:56:44 AM
The reason behind the delist of these coins is because of lack of adoption from coinbase wallet users, thats what I read online, I think the coinbase team don't understand that doing this is like trying to be in control of what coinbase wallet users should be buying.

This is another reason why centralized projects sucks, because still buy lots of XRP, ETC and BCH but just because people are not storing these coins using coinbase wallet they decide to delist. This is lame.
