1861  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Something I noticed when sending USD from Coinbase to my bank account on: July 19, 2019, 09:36:31 PM
It's probably for fraud and AML checks. Once the bank transfer settles -- especially wires -- they can't claw the money back. If your account doesn't get flagged for suspicious activity in those few days, then they release the funds.

It's annoying but I've never faced any issues. They've always been upfront about the delay.

Yeah, but in OP's case he's withdrawing from Coinbase to his bank account. If it was the other way around that would have been understandable, but in his case it doesn't make sense unless it's the fault of USA's antiquated banking systems taking their time to process bank transfers.

Wow. What was he thinking traveling outside Russia/Russia-aligned countries? Or he's already consulted lawyers who told him there isn't enough evidence for him to worry about.

It's funny and irony, a programmer offers their services or software to crack bitcoins with some money. So why don't they crack Bitcoin themselves, I'm sure those crack software makers will get more profits.

They might not have enough hardware (or money for said hardware, don't you need in the order of terabytes of memory at this point?) to grab the remaining keys so they're better off selling the software.

Did you go through KYC with the same exact ID anywhere else, ICOs, exchanges, etc.? Perhaps pinpointing who leaked or made use of your ID is possible.

The charts show the entire Merit history since the system's inception?

And red charts show sent merit points, and blue charts show merit points received? It wasn't mentioned anywhere, and reading 'two color options' my first impression was there are two colors to choose if someone doesn't like either of them Wink

I keep wondering why this thread was moved to off-topic section?
There are so many threads like this one in meta section and I see them there for a very long time and never moved.
I would do nothing but there are plenty of such stories about self-made senior, hero or legendary members and they are not removed from meta.

Probably because Meta is supposed to be for discussions about the Bitcoin Forum, and other threads weren't reported yet.

Why my thread is different and constantly moved to the off-topic section where is no activity at all?

Off-topic is actually more active.

It hasn't been decided yet if Bitcoin is going to be banned in India, but it makes for a good FUD. Even countries which are on the list of countries which banned Bitcoin haven't necessarily banned it if you look closer.

Lepiej dla nich jak sobie zostawią otwartą furtkę niż później denerwować się jak ktoś będzie się powoływać na zapis z roszczeniami. Póki nie są spółką publiczną i prowadzą biznes w przychylnej jurysdykcji to i tak mogą sobie na względnie dużo pozwolić.

O regulacje bym się chyba aż tak nie bał. W końcu binance założone zostało w Chinach. Potem przeniosło się do Japonii, Tajwanu, by skończyć na Malcie. Jeśli Malta zacznie robić problemy, to znajdą się jakieś Wyspy Komodo lub cokolwiek innego, co z otwartymi rękoma przyjmie Binance. Chłopaki mają głowę na karku.

Nikt nie wie czy za parę lat FATF lub nawet ONZ nie przyczynią się do wprowadzenia regulacji AML efektywnie zabijających biznesy okołokryptowalutowe. Jest to ryzyko, z którym trzeba się liczyć.

Nie jestem jednak pewien, czy rynek świadomie wycenia BNB na 5.6 P/E uwzględniając wartość wynikającą z zysków i redukując o ryzyka. Przecież ten sam rynek wycenia marzenia bez zysków czy nawet działającego produktu na 1.4 mld $ (cardano) lub 790 mln $ (IOTA). Moim zdaniem rynek postrzega BNB tak samo jak każdy inny token. Widzi jego wartość w hypie, eventach, spekulacji a nie zauważa, że fundamenty już dawno przegoniły cenę spekulacyjną i zaraz wkroczą poważni inwestorzy fundamentalni na parkiet.

Ryzyka występują na każdym rynku. Czy mniejszym ryzykiem dla Netflixa (130 P/E) jest powstanie licznej konkurencji, która już teraz rośnie w siłę? Pojawienie się nowego produktu z obszaru rozrywki, który skradnie część rynku? Podobno Netflix ma stale problemy z płynnością. To tylko platforma do oglądania filmów a wyceniana jest 23 razy wyżej.

Cardano, a zwłaszcza I(D)IOTA nie reprezentują sobą nic poza hype'em, ale nie są silnie przywiązane do jednej firmy, więc teoretycznie kiedyś tam mogą być (dużo) bardziej przydatne.

Netflix korzysta z first-mover advantage, dzięki ochronie IP udało im się urosnąć na giganta swojej branży i żeby się utrzymać prężnie inwestują we własny content, aby nie być zależnym od IP innych wytwórców, którzy chętnie własne platformy streamingowe zakładają. W warunkach wolnorynkowych w takiej postaci nie byłoby miejsca dla tego typu firm (nie byłyby tak wysoko wyceniane).

I'm not sure how to report the app. You should probably go to the google store. Also, you should not post links to malware. It is against the rules.

Click 'Report abuse':



And then select 'Harmful to my computer or data'.

You can link to malware as long as you aren't trying to entice others into running it, but I'd add a red warning and make the link non-clickable.
1870  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Countrade.com is a SCAM 600$ LOST !!! BE CARREFULL on: July 18, 2019, 09:18:14 PM
It appears the scammer probably got his account nuked for spamming. I believe when a user is nuked, they don't list each individual topic/post deletion in the mod log. If that is the case, it would probably be redundant to flag them.

Yes, he gets nuked for spamming and scamming with his browser add-ons. He gets nuked anytime he posts if a mod encounters him, and a nuked user's posts and topics won't show up in the modlog.

Bardzo ciekawe Smiley Szkoda, że warunki sprzedaży giełdy nie były publicznie dostępne, co by użytkownicy mogli sami podjąć decyzję czy warto trzymać na takiej giełdzie środki...

1872  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: E-Commerce, Fiat to BTC on: July 18, 2019, 05:07:58 AM
I doubt there would be much interest for such a service, businesses can typically pay for most of their expenses only in fiat currencies, getting them to accept BTC to be converted automatically to fiat money is already a challenge.
1873  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: "we wont let crypto become the next numbered anonymous swiss bank account" on: July 18, 2019, 03:26:50 AM
Do you want bitcoin to remain just as illegal drugs?? Without regulation, bitcoin will never grow! It bitcoin remains illegal, mass adoption will never become a reality! FATF guidelines are there for a good reason and might just mitigate the risk that comes from anonymity. You certainly would not want ISIS to declare bitcoin as their main currency!!

So far most cryptocurrency regulation is about erecting new barriers of entry towards users and businesses, and no it isn't illegal (yet), so why are talking about it 'remaining illegal'? FATF guidelines are there to exert control over people, and it's disappointing to see non-Newbies fall for boogeyman memes.

1875  Local / Alternatywne kryptowaluty / Re: Fenomen BNB (ALT/USD) on: July 17, 2019, 04:00:03 PM
Rynek na tyle wycenia tego tokena, tzn. z tak niskim wskaźnikiem P/E ze względu na branżę w jakiej działa Binance. Aktualnie ludzie ufają tej giełdzie, ale 'pewny' biznes w swiecie kryptowalut to dalej bardzo ryzykowna inwestycja w porównaniu do spółek notowanych na dużych i znanych giełdach. Jeśli giełda nie padnie ofiarą jakiegoś dużego scamu czy hacku/inside job, ani uciążliwe regulacje nie będą wprowadzane i egzekwowane (duża niewiadoma długoterminowo), to tokeny BNB mogą być bardzo dobrą inwestycją.
1876  Local / Polski / Re: Nowy Bitomat w Warszawie, Międzyborska 75a on: July 17, 2019, 03:19:13 PM
Jakie prowizje względem kursu z jakiej giełdy tam macie? Jakieś inne opłaty?

Max. kwota jednorazowej transakcji, to zgodnie z przepisami 4000 zł.

Jakimi przepisami? Póki co na rynku w Polsce najwięcej bitomatów mają shitcoins.club oraz Flyingatom z limitami 20000-60000 PLN.

Your computer/phone might be compromised if you keep getting hacked all the time. Get a new computer/phone or SSD/HDD at least and exercise more caution/pay more attention to what you click on.
1878  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: OTC crypto trades with cash on: July 16, 2019, 06:27:15 PM
Trying out OTC trades is much more riskier than buying crypto from a reputed exchange.

With all the exchange hacks and scams?

Legality plays a major role in carrying out such a trade in a successful way. In most of the third world countries, bitcoin is illegal and you wouldn't be able to find a trusted party to trade with. Here if you are residing in any of the countries where bitcoin is illegal you could better go with localbtc and trade with trusted individuals rather than trying out random in person traders. USA, Australia and other well developed countries have various exchanges where you can buy btc with cash. Coinbase offers various opportunities to buy btc with cash in the countries where btc is legal.
Apart from that you can even try out services which this forum offers as a whole in money exchanges. There are a lot of trusted forum individuals who sell btc for PayPal or skrill. You can try their services and start buying.

Bitcoin/cryptocurrencies are illegal only in a handful of countries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country_or_territory

Localbitcoins no longer permits in-person cash trades, so that's off the table.

Coinbase works in less than 40 countries, most of the world can't access Coinbase even if BTC is legal where they reside.

Members should be sensitized on what constitutes a 'good report', then most of the effort wasted in reporting inactive threads, could be used in cleaning up spam from the forum.

It's not that in these cases, it's about wanting to raise their reporting accuracy by a notch. They're still valid reports so I'll act on them, but Global mods have more scrolling to do until these reports are handled.
1880  Other / Meta / Re: [FARM SUPPRESSION] Clearing the Horde of Spammers on: July 16, 2019, 04:44:33 PM
Are people actually reporting threads older than a year? It's more difficult for me to find those threads than it would be for me to find spam across the forum. Ż\_(ツ)_/Ż

Yes. Even as far back as from 2011. It's generally not spam, as that would have probably been taken care of since then, but things like topic in a wrong board (or it was in the correct board at the time, but with new child-boards added over the years it no longer is in the right board).
