Dear yahoo62278, I am also sharing The Sceptical Chymist's thoughts and fears. Think also at the examples he mentioned. Only very few people on this world can not be influenced by money. Maybe you'll reconsider this, as it's not a simple extraction of a tooth, but a very complicated medical procedure... Perhaps you can try to "test" the doctors, at least, and see if they are open to this idea. Try with some gifts - flowers, chocolates, sweets -- anything. See if their attitude toward you changes (in good). If there is no change then, probably, they won't take any bribe. But if they will give you more attention then maybe a money gift will speed things up, maybe you'll get a status 2 again or sooner... Who knows? It'll cost you (almost) nothing to make this test on your own, but maybe it'll give you some important answers...

Se pare ca am fost atat de bun samaritean, incat am postat mai intai aici concursul si mi-am zis ca voi selecta ulterior un loc, doar ca am uitat sa mai fac asta Mi-am amintit insa intre timp si am facut-o.

Huh?  Pe langa ciudatenie in sine... de curiozitate intreb: despre ce premii gratuite era vorba? Bilete la meciuri...?


Ma bucur pentru tine! Felicitari! Iar pentru lipsa KYC-ului -- respect, Betnomi!

Moa cat de tare e concursul acestaaa  Merci pentru postare, NeuroticFish! Am reusit sa prin un loc liber! Foarte tare ideea ideea lui Frank... De asemenea, si design-ul card-ului e foarte tare... Ma refer la partea aceea cu "Don't get Yogged". Cred ca "Yogged" o sa devina un nou verb in crypto (sau, cel putin, aici pe forum). Si numele e amuzant - COLDSCAM! Mi-as dori sa castig la acest concurs!

Dear nutildah, first of all, welcome back I know you left the forum for a while and many were sure you left forever these harsh territories, which are so difficult for living that even Satoshi is banned

Second of all, thank you for your update. I checked your analysis and I've made some changes.


Now let's see...


Amen, brother!


But he is not alone He is the gang leader. However, he has some adepts:


Besides, don't underestimate the highlighted part


I moved this gang to Defunct section:



Wait... what?! No way, Clowns Cartel still exists! It must be so! Otherwise I lived in a dream for almost 11 months now! I thought I was there too, together with all good guys like wolwoo, Timelord some other clowns... Was I dreaming? I thought I was there, in their tiny car!!!


Well, hilariousandco offers a monthly update about how many reports were made. Their number decreased, but the gang is not yet dead. For example, I (almost alone) cleared all 200 threads which were full of spam from Rikafip's topic Oo


This band was sort of erratic even since I wrote this topic, as ICOEthics was not active before the existence of the topic. Its members seem to act chaotically, but they still do a good job. Take lovemayfamilis, for example. Or take yourself  


Cult of Lauda is already at Defunct section, for a long time now...


If I am allowed, I would also sign-up for this gang and worship you as its true leader! (I am always asking for help when I have to deal with BBCode tables  ).

Glad if they were worth reading


Without having the technical skills you have, from what I just read, I understand that at code level the work is not so much as I (and others?) thought it could be. This is good news! Regarding the idea to test this change on SMF, in order to see if it's worth implementing it on the new forum software -- again, it makes sense. And I also think that rPoints sound better than rMerits, as this name would make less confusion than "rMerits".

It seems you have all settled Now we need to see theymos' oppinion...

---

I'd make a mention here: as a dedicated reporter which I am, from my own point of view, I can say that there are not any low-effort strategies. I understand that a report breaking the rule related to plagiarism may be considered as way more valuable than a report for multiple posts in a row. However, if a reporter is skilled on plagiarism issues and he manages to get a few cases per month (per year?) should not be seen as God-a-like compared with a reporter which did not find any plagiarism issues but, instead, made 5000 reports of zero-value posts or of double bumping or of multiple posts in a row. The reports made by the lattest may have a lower value (taken one by one) compared with finding a case of plagiarism; yet, in order to make 5000 (good) reports of zero-value posts, this reporter would spend dozen of hours.

So we have a first reporter, which works a few hours the entire year and reports a few (good) cases of plagiarism -- all good, bravo to him! But the second one, although he made reports with lower value, worked much, much harder than the first. Does this make any sense?

Maybe reporting 50-100 zero-value posts is easy. But if someone reports 10.000 - 15.000 - 20.000 such posts, just imagine how much time it takes to do it (first of all, finding them; second of all, analyzing them into the context of the topic; then reporting them; writing a comment for each report etc.). I, for one, know how much time it takes. In some days I reported 800 posts. But, for doing that, I needed 12 hours or so, in a context when I already had prepared all those posts and I just had to hit "Report" button. If we count also the time needed for finding them and analyzing them -- you do the math

Congrats for confirming again your high moral standards and your good level of education!

Just a side note here, if I am allowed: "Gazeta" means "Newspaper", not "Newsletter". It's just a small difference, like the one between "duke" and "douche". But again, don't worry too much about it. Your main problem is not the poor knowledge of English. What's really embarrassing is the fact that you don't know even your own language.


Yes, they are. If you are not sure, feel free to go to ANAF headquarters (ANAF is the Romanian IRS) and let those inspectors know that you are doing their job. I believe they'll be happy to hear it.


Oh, no!


I may be; yet I am not.


Nobody forces you to like GazetaBitcoin.


Skipping the poor usage of English for arranging the words inside the sentence, to answer to your question I'd say to be transparent and make the deals inside your topic.


I am not sure you know the difference between "vouch" and "voucher". According to WikiDiff,


(I highlighted for you the part which is for your interest, as I am sure that otherwise you would have missed it.)

---

This is even a greater signal for being a scammer: selling something that's free?! Oo


Similar, I also did not say that he is a scammer. I said that he may be and, by outlining some of his actions, I wanted to make people aware of who they may be dealing with.

---

Is that the analysis pointed by BlackHatCoiner at your Trust page?


BlackHatCoiner's last sentence is close to what I said. However, about your precious analysis (although I have my doubts about the outcome of an analysis made by an imbecile), I am sure that dkbit98 will feel very flattered.


And you are among those 95%, right?


They do?


Really?


Can you name some?


I beg your pardon?


It is testnet or mainnet? Now I'm confused. You say here they use testnet, but a few lines up you said they have mainnet. Make your decision, will you?


You are an imbecile and this is another fact.

---

And the retaliatory feedback brought him another feedback from me. Still, a neutral one. But he's getting close to get a negative one. Each post he makes he's one step closer

Yup, I just noticed it now.

---

I understand what you mean and I agree with the principle. It's same as in software or games testing, where reporting a bug for a flickering texture has a lower severity than a crash of the application or than a bug which makes you lose the progress you had so far. However, in testing industry, differentiating the severity of each issue was implemented from beginning and all bugs reported simply followed the reporting procedure: bug type X is considered blocker; bug type Y is considered as Critical; bug type Z is considered as Major; bug type XY is considered as Minor; bug type XZ is considered as Nice to have and so on.

Basically, you are suggesting a similar system here, for classifying each type of report, based on the impact on the forum of the reported post. But the difference between us (the forum) and the system used in bugs reporting is that here no such system was designed from beginning. So, in order to have a similar system a lot of work has to be done:

- classifying each type of report. But who will do that? theymos? theymos and mods? theymos and mods and users?
- how will this classification be done? Based on Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules & guidelines?
- after first two steps are completed then others come up -- educating mods to learn the new report severities; educating users to correctly use the new report severities (what will happen if mods will confound report severities when analyzing reports?)
- last step and, maybe, most difficult: how will be implemented this system? By changing the code of the forum?

As you see, although the idea is good, I don't know if it's also technically possible. Thinking just a little about it and so many questions appear. If it's too difficult to do it (although it may help a lot) then is it worth doing it? (Or, at least, trying to do it?) And so on...

And, excepting all of the above, having in mind that theymos will change, at some point, the forum software, the question about the usefulness of the effort come back: is it worth working on this old forum code to implement this feature, since the forum will be renewed in the future? (And, if it will be changed then all this work may have to be done twice?)

Then, maybe, in this case, you should consider also trying to bribe the doctors...? I am not sure what are the customs in your country regarding medical system, but I know this is a "normal" custom in my country... especially when we talk about a very serious intervention, such is your case... Please don't get me wrong; as I said above, I am against such practices. But, sometimes, you simply can't get things done without bribing and this is a sad reality of our world... Maybe your doctors are waiting you to give them something (assuming they are not incompetents and only greedy)...?

Maybe, if you take this in consideration too, don't give them money upfront... Maybe you can try "to be nice" with them first? Offer them something... Like a bouquet of flowers for the nurses or a box of candies for the main doctor...? I don't know how things work there, I am just making assumptions here, you know best how to treat this case... But I am thinking that trying to be nice with the doctors may put you in a more favorable position... You can try, at least...

Aveam impresia ca raspunsesem la ce scrisese PrivacyG dar, cumva, nu mai gasesc postarea... Oo


Asta inseamna ca si noi suntem milionari? Ca si noi, ca si ei, avem... nimic


Pai si BitConnect si OneCoin functionau similar. Mai aveau si piata aceea interna unde -- chipurile -- puteai cumpara produse folosind acele asa-zise monede. In realitate, nu puteai cumpara nimic.


Evident. Insa cum sa explici treaba asta, celor care -- vorba lui NeuroticFish -- trimit bani site-urilor care promit ca le dau inapoi dublu?


Ceva de genul ne juram pe carne de porc ca o sa facem pe bune moneda asta -- cam asta spun dezvoltatorii. Vorbe care au tot atata valoare cat aveau expresiile noastre din copilarie jur pe rosu si altele de genul. Totul e o balarie, praf in ochi, nici macar frumos ambalat, dar care reuseste, totusi, sa stranga adepti. Incredibil.

Bolovanul nu cunoaste riscurile asociate cu KYC si nu intelege concepte crypto la mintea cocosului. Probabil ca nici nu a citit topic-ul lui 1miau De ce procesul KYC este unul deosebit de periculos – și inutil. Desi nu cred ca o sa bage ceva la cap, ii enumar si lui saxydev cateva din pericolele la care se expune cineva caruia i se fura datele personale (sau care si le preda singur):

---

Nu e asa -- cum? Au schimbat povestea -- cine? Si ce poveste? Si cu ce? Invatam si noi sa ne exprimam coerent? Esti si tu capabil sa scrii o propozitie cu subiect, predicat, atribut si complement? (Vezi sa nu confunzi complementul cu complimentul, daca asta urma sa scrii, ca iar te faci de ras.)


Ei, nu zau?! Si acum ai realizat si tu asta?


Pe bune??? Moama! Multumim pentru lamuriri! Noi credeam ca au scos direct un mainnet, fara a mai trece si prin testnet. Bine ca ne-ai deschis ochii.


Pe ce mainnet, daca mainnet nu exista?


Wow! Pari foarte popular! Oi fi si tu un miez din dodoasca, huh?

PrivacyG, acum intelegi de ce vezi atatia batuti in cap? Uite, asculta ce le zice unu` ca saxydev si-si ruineaza apoi oamenii vietile...


Serios?



Cunostiinta?


Cu alte cuvinte, ai reusit sa scoti bani din piatra seaca! Bravo maestre! Ai reusit sa vinzi un nimic pe 4000 euro.


A facut KYC trecut prin KYC, s-a aranjat pe viata...


... i-au dat monedele inexistente; tu ai vandut apa deshidratata (adica nimic cu nimic); apoi i-au anulat si trei sferturi din nimicul obtinut anterior cu pretul unui KYC. Buna treaba!


Hai ca, incet-incet, incepe sa ti se miste singurul neuron. Hai ca se poate! Incepi si tu sa vezi ce e in spatele Pi Network! Daca mai vii cu doua-trei deductii din astea o sa pot sa iti spun, cu toata inima,


Pana atunci insa, nu it pot spune decat

True. As I said in my earlier post, we are lucky to have a context offering some hands of help to those looking for anonymity and those which want to keep govern's eyes away from them:

- centralized exchanges should be avoided no matter what, for all the reasons I mentioned in OP
- decentralized exchanges are more and more; they started to become also more user friendly
- private wallets are a must, in order to be the owner of your private keys; preferably, users should choose those with open source code
- exchanges between a coin and another one should be made either through peer-to-peer transfers between users or through atomic swaps
- bank accounts should never be associated with crypto
- cash-in / cash-out anonymous crypto ATMs should be also used; they can be found through www.coinatmradar.com.

By following these easy steps we can maintain our privacy. The important part, though, is to have users willing to follow these steps and to leave behind all their unhealthy habits (using centralized exchanges, associating bank accounts with crypto accounts, giving personal information to third parties, using custodial wallets or wallets with closed source code etc.).

So the scammer strikes back. I expected that.


Thank you. Your statement reflects your high level of education.


In multiple occasions I, NeuroticFish and PrivacyG asked you what specific issues you are talking about. You never replied. Reference: [1], [2], [3], [4].


I said that you may be but, most likely, your poor English skills prevent you from understanding the difference between "is" and "may be".


Thanks again. Again, a high lever of education and moral standards.


Probably you don't know how to properly use Trust feedback. If you look at the description of Neutral feedback you'll see: "Other comments".



This is exactly what my feedback is. For more information you can alsu use LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system.


I am not incriminating you yet. For the moment I am just raising alarm signals about you.


No, you used Google because you don't know English. Sadly, you also don't know Romanian.


Be my guest.


If JollyGood has more information about the way you are trying to scam people, I am kindly inviting him here. I feel though that saxydev will be walking on very thin ice if JollyGood will come here.

Obviously. Needless to say, AML checks are allowed only to institutions authorized by authorities. Nobody would authorize an underclassman for performing AML check. My warning to other users is this in fact: as long as someone is illiterate enough to not be able even to spell his name, be very cautious. If the person is an imbecile then certainly a deal can go bad, as he does not understand what he's doing. If he knows what he's doing then his very low intellect may lead to other problems. If he's just an underclassman but agile in shenanigans, then most likely he'll try to scam you.

---

Oh no! Almost crying here. I'm sure shasan feels the same.


Probably you wanted to type "his post" instead of "he's post". Then again: when you are an illiterate is difficult even to spell correctly "a-ha".


AML checks are illegal, as long as they are not authorized by the govern. AML checks are not scammy but you are scammy. Last, but not least, AML checks are not dangerous; dealing with you is dangerous.


For other users the post was constructive. Same as this topic is.


What is the insult?


Now I'm really crying.

I'd like to raise awareness about a possible Romanian scammer, which is trying to fool people that he can offer money laundering check. I am not sure if he managed to scam anyone so far, but what is certain that he follows all patterns of a scammer.

What happened: the scammer alleges that he has thousands of BTC, ETH and TRX addresses addresses which are marked for being used in illegal activities / unusual behavior. He asks money for checking if client's (BTC / ETH / TRX) funds were used in illegal activities.

Scammer's Profile Link: saxydev

Reference Link: Anti money laundering service checks
Amount Scammed: unknown.
Payment Method: the scammer is willing to make deals only through PMs or Discord, not in plain sight.
Proof of Payment: N/A so far.
PM/Chat Logs: N/A.

Additional Notes: saxydev appeared recently inside Romanian board, starting to say various ridiculous things inside the translated topic of 1miau's Why people should be using SegWit addresses. OP declared himself against SegWit, signaling that it has all sort of problems, but without specifying anything. He tried to act smart, like talking in riddles but, in fact, it was clear that he is a mere illiterate underclassman, probably barely able to spell his name. Although I, NeuroticFish and also PrivacyG tried to reason with him, explaining that, if you have something to say, make sure you say it clearly, he did not act accordingly at all.

Later he joined another Romanian topic, defending the imbecility called Pi Network. He just writes idiotic stuff and, together with his level of very low education reminds me a lot of another Romanian imbecile, andulolika, which, among ban evasion and making death threats on the forum was also trying to scam forum users through various schemes (you can check the feedback I left him).

Make sure you read OP's Trust feedbacks -- saxydev sells "input analysis", which besides being fundamentally pointless, is against Bitcoin, as he treats the currency as non-fungible. I don't say he's a liar or a scammer; just a neutral warning of what kind of person you're about to be dealing with. (from BlackHatCoiner)

Excepting all of the above, I wrote this warning inside his thread, but my post was quickly deleted. Most likely, saxydev created his service topic with self-moderation to be able to delete any post incriminating him. My deleted post can be seen below.

---

---

Although I have no clear evidence that he is a scammer, all these hints suggest me that it's better to avoid OP. If you are interested in dealing with him, approach him with very high caution!. Be it andulolika's alt or not, saxydev seems to run enough shenanigans for being safe to avoid him.

---

Update (Jan 27th, 2023): the scammer exposed himself as being a scammer within this thread, after scamming user dkbit98 with 0.1 BTC representing a deal not honored by saxydev. As a consequence, I also updated topic title from "Be careful with saxydev; he is a possible scammer" to "Be careful with saxydev; he is a scammer".

What happened: dkbit98 made him the offer to prove that saxydev is selling a service which is free for the Internet; the offer was to have dkbit98 post such a website and, in case he will do it, to have saxydev pay him 0.1 BTC; saxydev denied that such thing exists and accepted the deal, after trying twice to cancel it unilateral.

Scammer's Profile Link: saxydev

Reference Link: Be careful with saxydev; he is a scammer
Amount Scammed: 0.1 BTC
Payment Method: BTC
Proof of Payment: N/A so far.
PM/Chat Logs: the agreement was sealed at post #20 of this thread.

I am sorry, my dear Rikafip... perhaps you missed my earlier post...

---

Looooooooooool!

---

Hihi! Perhaps I could add you to the statistics, as The most innocent runner-up: Maus0728, which did not know (even one year later!) that he ended on second place at Craft Master category


I am glad I was able to make you happy!

Dear yahoo62278, your update brings much sadness. Your situation reminds me of medical system from Romania. Romania has two medical systems: one is public and one is private. Those using public medical system have to face insalubrious facilities, hospitals infected with various germs thus you go there with a disease and leave having another one. The most important aspect is that without consistent bribing nobody even looks at you. Private medical system has modern facilities, does not accept any kind of bribes, but it's full of incompetent employees, from hospital managers to doctors, nurses and so on. And, as a plus, it's so expensive that only few people can access it. Practically, wherever you go you have to deal with some problems that you never heard before...

Besides, your case also reminds me of a 2005 Romanian movie, named The Death of Mr. Lazarescu. According to imdb, the story is about "Mr. Lãzãrescu, a dying old man, is shuttled from hospital to hospital by a loyal paramedic as doctors refuse to operate and no one can agree on a diagnosis.". Spolier alert -- the man dies in an ambulance, while being carried from a hospital to another one. Again, all happened because incompetents working in medical system.

I did not think that such cases can happen in well developed countries, such as U.S. (I believe you are from this country). The way you are treated inspires me two things: either there are also incompetent people or they are looking for a bribe... Maybe you can try to be moved to another hospital...?

While votes counting is still in progress, I thought to take a look in the past and see some nice statistics from previous two editions of BitcoinTalk Community Awards!

First of all, let's remember the winners and the runner-ups:

2020 edition


2021 edition


- there were 16 unique winners during both contests: hilariousandco, suchmoon, Rikafip, CryptopreneurBrainBoss, Ratimov, o_e_l_e_o, LoyceV, Hhampus, Lauda, satoshi, theymos, TryNinja, n0nce, lovemayfamilis, franky1 and Foxpup

- 6 of them managed to earn two prizes at different categories; from these, 3 managed to win at different categories: hilariousandco (Best Moderator in both years), o_e_l_e_o (Bitcoin Geek in both years), Hhampuz (Craft Master in both years), Ratimov (Discovery of the Year - 2020, SpamBuster - 2021), LoyceV (BitcoinTalk Ninja - 2020, Golden Feather - 2021), Lauda (Antihero, Miss Bitcointalk)

- curiously, while many expected TryNinja to win at BitcoinTalk Ninja category, he did not succeed in 2020; he took his revenge though, in 2021, by winning

- most votes a winner had: Ratimov was elected in 2021 as Best Spam Buster with 157 votes, followed by Hhampuz, with 151 (winner at Craft Master category) and TryNinja, also in 2021 (winner at BitconTalk Ninja category)

- smallest number of votes a winner had: o_e_l_e_o was elected in 2020 as Bitcoin Geek with 21 votes, followed by Rikafip and Ratimov, 2020 winners of Scambuster and Discovery of the Year Category, both receiving 31 votes

- biggest difference between first place and second place: 102 votes difference between Hhampuz and Maus0728 (Craft Master); 74 votes difference between Ratimov and actmyname (Spam Buster); 46 votes difference between TryNinja and LoyceV (BitcoinTalk Ninja) and also 46 votes difference between theymos and satoshi -- a sort of clash of the titans -- (Hero of Good). All these differences were recorded at second edition of the contest.

- smallest difference between first place and second place: 1 vote difference between theymos and satoshi -- again, a sort of clash of the titans -- (also at Hero of Good category); 2 votes difference between Ratimov and fillippone (Discovery of the Year); 4 votes difference between o_e_l_e_o and theymos (Bitcoin Geek). All these differences were recorded at first edition of the contest.

- unluckiest nominee: DdmrDdmr, by far. He was elected once on second place (Golden Feather - 2021) and four times on third place (Discovery of the Year - 2020, Bitcointalk Ninja - 2020 & 2021, Craft Master - 2020) each time being close to win but without succeeding. Needless to say, he also got fourth place twice and once a seventh place, at other categories Oo Maybe he'll be lucky at third edition of the contest?

That's all for now, let's return to votes counting

Thank you for your input and clarifying things up, my friend! Now this explains it.

The quiz was blocked twice, as twice we reached its upper limit during the third edition of BitcoinTalk Community Awards! I am glad to see that so many users tried the quiz in this interval and, more important, they also learned a lot while going through the 21 questions.

Excepting that, icopress and I also offered some merits to those which performed the quiz and, for many of them, those were their first earned merits. Thus, together with the required activity, they were promoted to Jr Members. Congrats to all! Some of them also offered some valuable input regarding the quiz (bugs, glitches, answers which needed to be updated etc.) and, in their case, our generosity was bigger. Together with these users the quiz was updated and it reflected accurate information.

I've seen many similar quizes in the past years but, I have to say, none of them ever got the traction this quiz faced. This is really incredible. Most likely, this also happened as there is no other active quiz, as far as I know. Still, participation rate was (and still is) at a very high rate.

While this is a very nice (and kind /s) invitation to be wise, educate yourself, act with honor and so on, I could not refrain from staring at the very educative name of the topic:

---

While having to agree with OP, as it's normal, after all, that if someone did something wrong once -- then certainly everybody does it (again, /s) -- still, topic's title brought me back the interesting ideas of another iconic figure of the forum:



So it seems that, somehow, three years later after wolwoo spoke the truth acted like the village idiot, someone else reaches same conclusion about the forum being a mafia clan. That makes sense, doesn't it?

The only thing that I don't understand is how and why OP chose that particular thread, which is also a very old one. There are so many other ones which could be presented as proof for the forum being part of mafia:


Needless to say, the most recent scam -- yogg stealing the funds of Cold Key cards - My Cold Keys Just Got Swiped! All Halving Sets!!

Practically, while we have cases of hundreds, even thousands of BTC stolen, OP comes here pointing out a 4 BTC scam?!

While your idea seems very interesting, you have also to admit that it is very complex. And its complexity, together with the complexity of proper implementing it may lead to even more debates and more questions. "That way, mods can send you rMerit according to how useful your report was." -- what makes the report useful? What makes a report more useful than another? What report is useless but still leading to the reported post being deleted? And so on. Practically there should be also defined a system classifying each kind of reports (zero-vale posts, offtopic posts, spam, scam, referral links, plagiarism, double bump and so on) -- and this would lead to even more complex debates.

Still, the idea is interesting but I think it would be way more difficult to implement it in a proper way than simply create some badges.

And, speaking about badges, who do you think - seriously speaking - that would abuse somehow by reporting posts? It never happened before. I agree, this does not mean that it'll never happen in the future. However, I believe that chances are too low to take them into consideration...

Pai, e limpede: neavand nici blockchain, nici producere prin proces minier si -- evident -- nici mineri, nu este o criptomoneda. Este pur si simplu praf in ochi, asa cum au mai fost si altele. Presupun ca ai auzit de cazurile BitConnect sau One Coin. "Inovatia" adusa de Pi (care nici macar nu e "inovatia" lor; prin "inovatie" a se citi "minciuna noua") este faptul ca poti folosi telefonul pentru minerit (si spun ca nu este inovatia lor intrucat au mai aparut cateva "monede" cu moda asta; una dintre ele se numea Bee Coin sau ceva de genul). Aspect care, din nou, este inteles de orice om care are cat de cat cunostinte crypto ca fiind ori o aberatie monumentala ori o minciuna sfruntata. Bine, sunt de acord, poti calcula Bitcoin si folosind pix si foaie -- deci, implicit, orice alta criptomoneda, dar presupun ca nu face nimeni asa ceva. Daca, strict tehnic vorbind, poti folosi si un telefon pe post de miner, sansele de a gasi un bloc sunt, probabil, de una la un miliard de ani, daca nu si mai bine.

Sau, cum spunea NeuroticFish unui mai demult,





Pai fix asa erau si BitConnect si One Coin... Iti dadeau falsa impresie ca poti face ceva cu acele monede pe cand, in realitate, nu puteai face nimic. La partea de KYC, ce sa zic -- e noaptea mintii. Intr-o lume crypto care este destinata anonimitatii, inca dinainte de aparitia Bitcoin, din vremea grupului Cypherpunks si a lui David Chaum, tu vii sa ceri KYC pentru moneda ta? Cata minte sa ai sa faci asa ceva si sa ai asteptari ca lumea sa o si foloseasca? Si totusi, iata, sunt destui atat de incuiati la minte incat chiar sa o faca...


Da, pai nu cumva sa le stirbeasca imaginea


Subscriu. 110%!


Pai... unii sunt prea naivi si, totodata, si prea lacomi, crezand ca se pot imbogati peste noapte sau din nimic. Altii poate ca au niste cunostinte crypto, dar sunt precare, insa ei cred ca le stiu pe toate si ca sunt vizionari, cand spun despre o moneda ca o sa creasca foarte mult. Altii sunt trasi in piept de altii -- nu uita, la Pi, din ce stiu, se intra pe baza de referral (un alt semnal de alarma spre a fi o teapa). Altii sunt idioti; altii nu vor sa li se deschida ochii si tot asa. NeuroticFish explica mai bine, in postarea de mai jos

---

=)))))))) Cat de tare e vorba asta -- scam la scam! Am s-o retin!


Nu m-am putut abtine din a ma gandi la poza asta

Nu uita, si AtmByte iese din discutie


Asa sa fie! Dar, stii vorba aia -- la pomul laudat sa nu te duci cu sacul
