Just a heads up, someone started scam accusation against bitblender .me (note different domain): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5025718.0It could to worth to warn users about scam sites pretending to be you (I assume that's what happened).

I've never used their service, but have seen them advertising here for quite a while now. Quick search tells me that the correct address is: bitblender. io not bitblender. me as per ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=436467.0Looks like you fell victim of scam site posing to be the trusted one. If so, no wonder you got no reply from customer services. I feel sorry for you, there's close to zero chance of getting your BTC back.

Do you participate or invest in HAZZA? It is real scam ICO. Since six months ago no news about the project and the coin worth nothing.
That's sadly the norm, apparently only 44% of ICOs are still active after 120 days following successful fund-raise. See this topic for reference. And to start scam accusation (I don't expect it will be of much help), you need to point out where's the actual scam. Have they actually promised anything within specified timeframe? I would expect many ICOs to have a clause in their T&Cs that nothing is guaranteed and you don't "invest" but "contribute" to the project - no one reads such anyways and it could be very handy for them if it somehow goes to court.

It might be a simple thinking. But look, with the current issuance rate, you have somewhere around 4 percent inflation (if I did the math correctly, that is - with slightly over 5 billion DOGE coins minted every year). USD has an average annual inflation of 3 percent. It is not hard to see how the buying power of USD has deteriorated over the years. It's closer to 4.5%, but percent amount will be declining as the total supply increases. For comparison Bitcoin's current issuance rate is ~3.8% - not a huge difference. Yes, BTC will eventually hit a hard cap, but none of us will be alive when that happens. Yes, USD, just as any other national currency, is subject to inflation, and that's intentional and it's for a reason. All I'm saying is that 'hard cap' is massively overrated and that it has mostly psychological meaning. That being said, I agree that DOGE issuance model is not optimal, imo it should have at least one more halving.

IMO, it's just a pump. I have never owned DOGE because to me it defies the basic principle of a good currency, that is, to have a limited supply. With DOGE, every new block you mine produces 10.000 DOGE coins forever. So, with this unlimited supply, I can't see how they are supposed to make their coin valuable long term. The current top 20 position therefore doesn't mean anything.
That's a very simple thinking. It's actually the opposite, healthy inflation makes a currency better, as it takes away incentive to hoard and encourages spending, so something currencies are made for. If DOGE was meant to be used (not to be a speculative, appreciating asset), the decision to leave it uncapped was reasonable. There's another upside, having constant block reward means there will always be incentive for miners, while with Bitcoin - there's a big question mark on how will things pan out when block rewards are insignificant.

Sometimes turning the equipment off and waiting for better opportunities is the best bet. When you can buy more Ethereum with your electric money than you can mine then it's time to turn off the equipment. I have actually stopped mining altogether as it's impossible to compete with the zero electricity miners.
This. If it's not profitable and you can't switch to other profitable coin - switch it off. It's funny that there's still a lot of amateur miners with a mindset "I'll keep mining below break-even point, maybe the price will go up". With that logic - just buy it with saved electricity bill money. You'll save some money + extend equipment's life.

Press board should definitely be added to the list. It has assigned moderator, jgarzik who was inactive for a long time and came back just to participate in his own altcoin's thread. If I understand the purpose of that board correctly - posting press hits from mainstream media about Bitcoin - then most of the content is pure spam: non-bitcoin or even non-crypto related links, links to crypto-related news sites (what's the point?) or some niche blog posts, hardly anyone is sticking to the advised format + there's a spam even in sticky posts.

I reported it to moderator as a death threat and it got marked as "bad" so apparently the mod disagrees.
To be honest, the translation in the OP doesn't look like an obvious threat and hardly make sense (google translate didn't help much), especially the "life sentence" part. Is FinTechEU allegedly saying that he will put OP in prison for life or impose a death penalty on him somehow? It's not even clear who is that post addressed to. There are 2 names mentioned but I don't understand the context. ...
I PM'd Xal0lex and asked him to have a look at it. A Russian moderator will understand it the best.
Wasn't it a Russian mod who marked suchmoon's report as "bad"? I'd expect local board reports to be going through local mods.

Strange, I always thought only organising giveaway threads was a bannable offense, not participating in such. I was wrong though: Most giveaway threads are no longer allowed in the Alternate cryptocurrencies sections. From now on, posting or replying to such threads could result in being banned. ...
If so, you're not the only one, there are over half a thousand replies in there Strangely, the topic is still not locked by the mods. Maybe they want to keep it open as a honeypot...

No. This is a separate coin, the only thing in common with DOGE was that the initial distribution was made to DOGE holders as per snapshot block. Also, as mentioned somewhere above, it's got also nothing to do with dogethereum bridge. Plus, there's no such thing as "official" Dogecoin team at all.

OK, what the hell is going on? Have traders just spontaneously decided to escape from losses into DOGE? Is DOGE the new Tether? This can't be just coincidence. I seriously feel like FOMOing in...

When everyone knows about cryptocurrencies activities I think no more jobless people out there.
Sure thing! And then the people who do have jobs will quit and go 100% into crypto because why would they spend huge chunk of their life wageslaving. The whole world will be making money on fucking airdrops and bounty campaigns!!! Totally sustainable r...right guys? Seriously, do you people act stupid or are you seriously that clueless about how the world works?
ps. For those who don't know - 3rd world country people trying to earn on crypto is precisely the reason why we have restrictions on ranking up in a form of Merit system.

I used to use this exchange Bitpanda. I was able to deposit Crypto and sell for Neteller Euro. But after your upgrade Bitpanda, i am not able to do that anymore without verification. I can not deposit crypto without verification and can not access withdrawal Neteller and Skrill. What do i do?
Verify.

"FOX" tokens? What are they supposed to be?
Everyone and their mother are issuing own tokens nowadays. It's the easiest way to make money in the cryptoworld. Weirdly enough, there already are "Fox Trading" tokens, with FOXT ticker. Good luck not getting confused. If they are now going to allow registration, meaning "send your ID to us" in order to exchange larger funds then it means they will alienate a large part of their customer base.
From the article linked above I understand that for low levels accounts you'd only need to submit basic info, probably just name, email and country.

The Founder and CEO of ShapeShift, Erik Voorhees, has announced that the exchange is launching a membership program and soon, anonymous trading will not be available. For years, ShapeShift has been an easy way for cryptocurrency users to convert cryptocurrency into other types of cryptocurrency.
Not having to register and create account was Shapeshift's key feature. Without that, they'll lose most of the appeal and will become not much different from any other crypto exchange out there. If they made such decision just to be on the 'safe side' of unclear regulations, they should make sure it's absolutely necessary.
Edit: source: https://news.bitcoin.com/shapeshift-membership-user-information/Voorhees described five levels of membership. “Level 1 is available now, and is free and open to everyone,” he confirmed. The transaction limit for this level is $10,000 with a $50,000 monthly cap on volume.
“Levels 2-5 will be available later, and enable benefits on higher amounts of volume,” Voorhees added. These levels “are optional and require FOX tokens,” standard Ethereum-based tokens “which will have a number of features and functions when they become available,” Shapeshift’s website clarifies. Oh, they're creating tokens now...

I don't know about that particular one OP (is "bitcoin mining network" their name?), but see this old thread with good tips how to spot a scam/ponzi mining scheme: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=878387.0And never send any money to some newly created website. Any legit cloud-mining business would likely have a dedicated, official or unofficial thread on this forum or other platforms + always google search the name and search for reviews.

Hi, is there a specified date for the launch/distribution on NXY tokens? I believe it was meant to be sometime in September, if memory serves me right.

... A lot of people are beating inflation by relocating to third world countries where the Bank interest rates are higher than the first world countries. A uncle of mine worked in a first world country for 30 years in the Post Office and on his retirement income, he would barely survived. His solution was to relocate to a third world country, where he got more interest on his savings and also a favourable currency conversion for the money that are coming from his first world retirement fund. He is currently living like a King in a third world country, with his Post Office pension fund income. <He is also getting 8% interest on his savings> That's definitely something to consider Sounds like a solid plan 'B' if everything else fails. As always there are some downsides and obstacles: you'd need visa/residency permit etc, there's language barrier, and the higher interest rates almost always come in pair with high inflation and general instability.

How do they define whether project is active or not? It's not stated in the abstract and I don't feel like creating an account just to download the full paper. 120 days after ICO completion doesn't seem long enough to jump into conclusion that devs abandoned it and run off. This is such a bad news to hear but in turns what is going to happen is people will learn their lesson.
? The average returns are still enormously high as compered to traditional investments. That means you could just be throwing equal amount in every ICO without any research whatsoever and still make huge profit. That's insane and cannot last.
