I can donate one i3 laptop (old as well) for the good cause. Thanks for the offer, but my long-term plan is a VPS. The netbook is only meant to move it away from my main computer, while taking away the need to do things manual. I still start my big updates ( Merit and Trust) manually (on my i3, the netbook can't handle it), but all the daily or more frequent updates run on their own. And anything that requires posting isn't moved to a bot yet. BTW you messed up the quotes Dinner called ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Any chance we can have an adjustment for the post counts to exclude those that are in the WO thread? No (sorry). My current setup doesn't allow for it, and it's already quite CPU-intensive to do many daily updates on my slow old netbook. I already reduced the update because of this.

I don't understand how Yobit can afford this amount of bounty. Even for one week, it will represent a huge amount while this campaign won't even bring back money since it's for a free service. So I'm a little bit skeptical. Yobit has $18 million in total volume. I'm not sure what their trading fee is, but even if it's just 0.2%, that's $36,000 per day. Probably double, because maker and taker both pay a fee. And there are some scam accusations against Yobit.

Well, if you don't have at least 1 flag on your Trust page, then you aren't doing anything very interesting... Guess I'm just boring.

Can we get a new list of the current participants? I needed some users to report, so this will be useful for both controlling the campaign and disincentivizing spam from each individual user. Not a lot of people like it when 20+ of their posts are deleted in one fell swoop. I don't check signatures, but I do have a list counting all posts per user in the past 24 hours (updated 4 times per day). Many of the users with 20, 19 or 18 posts joined the Yobit campaign. I'm also prioritizing my list of posts made by each user. It won't be finished today though.

I saw a gig on the fiverr with Merit sell. Seeking $15 for each merit, which is a very expensive. That means it will cost $150 to build a member account. ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) It also means I gave away over $90,000 worth of sMerit ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) That just means the buyers really can't create any decent post, I don't have high requirements for new users to send them Merit. All I want to see is someone who doesn't look like a spammer. I love how spammers just can't make one good post ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Wouldn't it be a better business to sell decent posts? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) That gives the risk of plagiarism and thus a ban for the buyer, so it's risky business too.

Can you post a list of participants (just userIDs is enough)? If you do, I'll get you some stats on them.

He's a funny guy: Tell your scam team that sent you to write this topic that Vadi2323 crushed them, crushes and will crush, and no sophisticated trick, no complaints to hypocrites will frighten Vadi2323. Reminds me of Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf. Just ignore his PM, that's what I did ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I don't think he'll be banned for this, there are far worse trolls still roaming the forum.

I think flags disappear after, what was it? 90 or 180 days without support? I haven't read that before. I don't think Flags ever disappear, although type 2 expires after 3 years, and type 3 expires after 10 years. Type 1 is forever!

And this time, they are not promoting Yobit itself. They are trying to promote new another crypto-related forum in here Bitointalk. It is funny, they are hoping good things from their own biggest competitor. Wouldn't it be great if they lure all the spammers there? They should pay more for posting on their own forum than they pay for posting on Bitcointalk. By all means: take them ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Back to the beginning: I recovered my my account with that 12 words but it just displays only my 1st account which has exactly 0BTC on it. Does it show any transactions in your first HD wallet? There must have been some, before your balance went back to 0 again and you created the next HD wallet. Maybe I overwrote my old 21 or 22 HD Wallets from the previous phone by creating on the new phone 22 or 23 new HD wallets. That's not how this works, a HD-wallet is supposed to be forever, as long as you have the correct seed and derivation path.
Yes I have used my old HD Wallets for BTC ATMs. These BTC ATMs often require new wallets, because there are 24h limits. That is the reason I created those 21 HD wallets. For future use: a new address is probably enough, instead of creating a new wallet each time.

Hmm.. you might be right.. but that's quite an unfair duel. LoyceV is offline for almost 2 hours now. I guess he is charging his batteries. I'd love to see a 1v1 scraping duel between those two tho ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Suchmoon can have this one ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I don't have tools ready to check signatures, and unless Yobit is going to pay me insane amounts of money, I'm not going to do this.

Reminder: No spamSelf moderated to stop spam. Don't go off-topic. Don't challenge the accused in this topic, do that in your Scam Accusation.

Warning: New users have been scammed through PM! Don't trust anyone who sends you a private message about this.1) Generate 21 more HD wallets in mycelium for your 22nd to show up I think this is the safest and most foolproof option.

Is there any action at all that be taken against the authors of these vexatious claims? I'd say Opposing the Flags by DT, and maybe excluding the users from their Trust list is enough. They're unimportant to the Trust system.

It's no surprise which campaign has the lowest percentage of deleted posts ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I don't even recognize most of the campaigns with a high percentage of deleted posts. I guess because most of the spam happened on the Altcoin boards. How active is for instance deeponion's signature? Could it be abandoned, but many inactive accounts still wear the signature and a few of them made some posts in the last year? I haven't seen much of it anymore, while it was the worst spam-campaign at some point during it's peak.

So, what do you think about the key generation through the 256 coin flips? [my opinion - is is the most secure way nowadays] As long as you're certain the software you use actually creates a private key from your coin flips, this could be very secure. I'm saying this because of the paper wallet website that was compromised recently: it generated pre-defined private keys, even when used offline, and people are still losing funds because of it. If you're using coin flips, it doesn't hurt to create the private key with different software on independent systems, and ensure they're the same (and always on air-gapped hardware that won't ever go online again).

Since it's my topic, I think I can bend the rules a bit ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I stumbled upon MrFreeDragon, who created his account last month. I think he's one of the rare knowledgeable new users who should not be restricted by the Merit system, but deserves to Rank up as quickly as Activity allows. So, please just check his post history.

What is his purpose? I figured I'd just ask on Telegram, and the answer is: "For campaign". That doesn't tell me anything ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ... Or start bumping service with those high ranked accounts, if they have merit then the bumping power will be higher and there you go, nobody cares that those accounts are with red trust. I was suspecting that this might happen and here we have a fresh example. The bumping power doesn't depend on rank, only on Activity and Merit earned in the past year. If he wants Merit or sMerit, I'd expect that to be specified. I kinda expect the accounts to be used to shill for a project, but who's going to believe a thread that has many higher ranked accounts with red trust posting in it?
