2361  Economy / Invites & Accounts / Re: [SELL] Netflix account for $10 with full 1 month subscription plan HD on: April 07, 2023, 03:03:15 PM
No offence but doesn't it only cost $20 a month anyway for the highest plan? People are selling accounts on here for mere dollars do I don't think you'll get much interest here.

The price of course depends from country to country, and in my case the Premium UHD package costs 9.99 EUR per month, while the Basic package costs 4.99 EUR. If you believe the data on this link, in some countries the Premium UHD package costs as much as $27, while there is also a country where it costs less than $4.
2362  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: About Hardware wallet]  I am curious to learn; please help. on: April 07, 2023, 02:49:08 PM
~snip~
The Ledger wallet has a tamper-evident seal that covers the USB port and the edges of the device.
The seal has a unique QR code that can be scanned using the Ledger Live app to verify its authenticity.

I've bought several Ledger HW over the years and I've never seen such protection, so I'm not sure where you got this information from? Even Ledger explains on its official website why it does not use anti-tamper seals and what you should pay attention to in order to protect yourself from fake or modified devices.

Ledger deliberately chooses not to use anti-tamper seals on its packaging. These seals are easy to counterfeit and can, therefore, be misleading. Rather, genuine Ledger devices contain a secure chip that prevents physical tampering: this provides stronger security than any sticker possibly could.

So be careful and it should be on the official site for less worry.

Buying from the manufacturer is something that is recommended, but you still have to keep in mind that the device travels for a while, and that it ends up in the hands of various people, whether it's delivery people, customs or someone else. We know from the experience of some forum members that their packages containing HW were opened, although this does not mean that there were malicious intentions.

If you want to be somewhat safe, when you buy a device and generate a seed, first send a smaller amount that you can afford to lose and leave it like that for a while - and if nothing bad happens, assume that the device is safe.

@slackovic, I think that he will still remain in the national team and play in Euro 2024, because that competition would be perfect to say goodbye to the national team, especially if we manage to get a good result. Today the news appeared that Modric signed a new contract with Real Madrid, and he is one of those who publicly said that the club never prevented him from playing for the national team, and I don't think such a request will even happen.

It is true that Modric is the brain of the team, but it is also true that sooner or later someone else will have to take responsibility and become the leader. It will surely be an opportunity for Kovacic to show if he can play the main role in the middle of the field, but also for some other players who compete for those positions (Majer, Pasalic, Vlasic, Ivanusec).

THAT'S WHAT CENTRAL MARGINS ASK ME TO PAY....

Is it about this trading platform by any chance? According to everything that can be read about them, it seems that it is a classic scam in which victims are tried to be induced to invest as much money as possible, and problems arise when the victim wants to make the first withdrawal.

Obviously, one of the methods is the claim that the transaction is stuck and that some kind of "acceleration" should be paid. I hope the OP will tell us something more, but everything points to a scam.
2365  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers on: April 07, 2023, 10:29:32 AM
I think that Croatia must focus on the qualifications games and forget about the possibility of additional qualifications due to finish up first in the Nations league group phase. Croatia is winning even when most of their players are not at their highest performance. The game against Turkey is an example of this. We have a great goalkeeper and someone from the team always stands out. I'm just worried about games against weaker opponents like Armenia or Latvia. Croatia likes to lose points in those games.

I agree, but our mentality is such that we always complicate things for ourselves, and you only have to remember the qualifications for the 2018 and 2022 world championships, where we had big problems both times, and then won medals twice in a row. However, we rely a lot on individual quality, primarily the ever-present Modric, who is the brain of the whole team, and the great goalkeeper Livakovic, without whom we would not have beaten Turkey.

When Modric retires from the national team, there will be a big void in the middle of the field, and given that he is a bit of a miracle, it is unlikely that anyone from the existing team will be able to replace him. Let's hope that Modric plans to stay for Euro 2024 as well, and somehow it seems to me that he wants that because it will be a special European championship considering that our fans will come to the matches in large numbers.
2366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: THE RATES AT WHICH BITCOIN ATMs MOVES IS MIND BLOWING on: April 07, 2023, 10:04:24 AM
The bitcoin ATMs doubled this year surpassing 30,000 globally in the world today, more than double the estimation at the beginning of 2021.
~snip~

Is it good news for those who live in the US or Canada? I say this considering that there are over 30 000 crypto ATMs in those two countries, while the rest of the world lags far behind. Therefore, from a global point of view, the situation almost does not change, because more than 90% of all crypto ATMs are located on one continent. It sounds fascinating that this is so, but it seems that there is a demand for such a way of crypto trading, although this does not surprise me at all when it comes to the US, where almost all important companies when it comes to the world of cryptocurrencies are actually located.

I believe that Croatia will be the first, and Wales will be second and Turkey will be the third, but we still don't know how it will be for sure. We need at least a few more games to see how the teams will play, before we can judge them about the end result.

Even if Croatia is not first or second in the group, it has a chance for additional qualifications in March 2024, given that it won first place in its League of Nations group. I wrote earlier that there is even a chance that Croatia will go directly to Euro 2024 if it wins the Nations League, but I think that may not be true (I can't find such information).

Teams have been placed into ten groups of five (including those containing the four UEFA Nations League Finals participants) or six. Sides play home and away in a round-robin format, with the group winners and runners-up advancing directly to the final tournament. The remaining three teams will be decided through the play-offs, featuring 12 teams selected based on their performance in the 2022/23 Nations League.

~snip~
Can you please recommend an Antivirus reputable for this, I am sure there are fake antivirus out there that will worsen this case of malware.

I won't say that good AV is something that won't help, but you should ask yourself how you infected your computer with that malware in the first place? If you use pirated (cracked) software, download torrents or visit websites through which malicious programs are most often distributed, then nothing will help you protect yourself. The best thing you can do is to separate all of the above from everything related to cryptocurrencies.

Anyone who owns cryptocurrencies becomes a target, and if you want to avoid getting hit, you have to stay one step ahead of the bad guys.
2369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [NEWS] Elizabeth Warren says she’s building an anti-crypto army in new campaign on: April 06, 2023, 01:57:40 PM
Another reason why the government wants a crackdown on the cryptospace is it might be hard to tax because cryptocoins are easy to move and hide hehe.

The tax is paid on the profit, which means that those who bought Bitcoin and did not sell it have no reason to pay tax, unless there is some country where you have to pay tax just because you own Bitcoin? In addition, everyone who buys Bitcoin through CEX has done KYC and uses their bank accounts for deposits and withdrawals, and then it is up to the state institutions that monitor such things to catch all those who avoid paying taxes.

It is stupid to say that Bitcoin is used by those who want to avoid paying taxes, because in reality nothing can be hidden from the authorities today.
2370  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Microstrategy bought more bitcoin on: April 06, 2023, 01:46:07 PM
OP, there's also that other thread all about MSTR in the Economics section you know.  I have no doubt this news has or will be posted there, and that's kind of the main thread dealing with Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy, and their bitcoin dealings (even though Economics seems like the wrong section for it to be in).
~snip~

I'm sure he knows, but why not open a new thread every time MicroStrategy buys Bitcoin - when you're the OP, you definitely get more exposure for your sig campaign, and maybe some merits come in too. The main thread in Economics serves its purpose and contains all the important information thanks to @fillippone.
2371  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is the significant of bitcoin halving on: April 06, 2023, 10:54:38 AM
1. Bitcoin is a long-term investment, there is no get-rich-quick scheme investing in Bitcoin.

Bitcoin was not created to be something that people invest in at price X and then sell at price Y - because if we all think like that, then Bitcoin will fail in the future. Given that the majority of investors have their exit price, and that there are those who have so much money that they can buy most of the BTC that will be offered on the market - will we have a situation in 10 or 15 years where most of the coin will be in the hands of a few dozen companies or rich individuals?

3. If you accumulate Bitcoin in a bear market, there will be no need to worry about price fluctuations.

Maybe that is true, maybe not - because past events do not guarantee that the past will repeat itself and that those who invest today will not have "problems" with volatility.
2372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ultimate (simple) guide on when to buy Bitcoin. on: April 06, 2023, 10:36:18 AM
if you were starting buyng bitcoin when it Was at 60000, now probably you were not happy.

Those who buy in the middle of a bull market or near the end have their own fault if they are unhappy today, and if they don't understand some things, the same thing will happen to them again in a few years. For those who want to invest long-term (at least 2-3 years), the best time has already passed considering that the price was below $20 000 for months, but the second best time is right now and in the months to come.

In general, looking at the situation of buying at $20k or $28k considering the potential growth, there is not too much difference, and I mean those who invest smaller amounts and their possible profit will not decrease significantly. For those who buy 1 BTC or maybe 0.5 BTC, of course there is a difference because it is about $10k or $5k that they could have saved, but for the majority who invest a few hundred $ a few $ savings will not mean a big difference.
2373  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another scam email attempt on: April 06, 2023, 10:23:06 AM
Initially I haven't checked his address because I thought that he would make new address for each potential victim. Now I looked into it - now it's empty, but it received in total over 0.024 BTC in 2 transactions.

Then at least one thing is clear, and that is that the scammer does not use a unique BTC address for each victim, because that would mean tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of unique BTC addresses and editing every e-mail that is sent. You can also check if the e-mail was sent only to you, or if it contains multiple recipients.

Where exactly I can report this address? I saw similar kind of websites, but now I don't remember their names.

There are more of them and they are easy to find through search engines, for example 1, or 2.
2374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Another attempt at Bitcoin ETF..You knew it was coming once BTC raised above ATH on: April 05, 2023, 03:40:01 PM
ETF is not mentioned anywhere in the text, so regardless of the fact that VanEck is very optimistic when it comes to Bitcoin and gold, I wonder if the big players have already somewhat given up on spot ETFs? In the past years, a lot of dust was raised about this, even though the SEC was very firm in its positions, and somehow it seems to me that this will not change until the people who make the decisions change.
2375  Economy / Speculation / Re: When do you think Bitcoin will hit $1 million for the first time? on: April 05, 2023, 03:21:19 PM
We can only guess and nothing more than that, but I personally don't think it can happen in this decade. Of course, I take into account everything that has happened so far and some possible scenarios that could happen in the following years. Given that we live in a world that is changing drastically, all options are possible, but for the price of BTC to reach $1 million, some very positive things should happen that are not too likely to happen.

By this I mean the possibility that some serious central banks start buying Bitcoin, and that some big companies join them, which would cause a great demand, and we know that this would launch the price into the sky. Whether and when the central bank will make such a move is impossible to predict at the moment, but it is enough for one to move in that direction and the others will follow.

I am of the opinion that some things will be much clearer in about ten years when 99% of all BTC will be mined, and that halvings after that (maybe even before) will not have the same impact as today. Of course, all this is assuming that people are not destroyed by the third world war or that we are not conquered by artificial intelligence.
2376  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin open source wallets that support replace-by-fee (RBF) on: April 05, 2023, 02:54:43 PM
Click on 'Pump fee'.

In fact, it is "Bump fee" if we are to be precise, and that is what it says on the sample screen you posted Wink



I was thinking I will be able to pump the fee on mobile Bluewallet, but unfortunately I was not able to. Or is there anything I am getting wrong?

The matter should have been quite simple if you want to bump the fee of your transaction, the RBF option is enabled and you have enough funds to increase the fee. I've never had that wallet, but here's their little tutorial -> BlueWallet RBF
2377  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another scam email attempt on: April 05, 2023, 11:06:14 AM
@LTU_btc, have you perhaps checked the BTC address that was sent to you to pay the ransom for your alleged sins? It's already an old trick, but I'm really interested to see if scammers get away with it these days, even though I know that sometimes they send payments to themselves in order to convince potential victims that others are also paying.

In addition to the fact that such messages should be reported as spam, it would be good to report BTC addresses to some of the sites that collect exactly such addresses associated with various BTC scams - maybe someone will check the address and see that the whole story is fake.
2378  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin open source wallets that support replace-by-fee (RBF) on: April 05, 2023, 10:54:14 AM
When making a transaction, make sure the checkbox for "Final" is left blank (this is its default setting). This will enable RBF. Then, if you need to bump your fee, on the "History" tab you simply tap on your unconfirmed transaction, tab "Options" at the bottom left, and then select "Bump fee" and choose your new fee.

I would just like to add that the procedure does not end with choosing a new fee and signing the transaction, but the final step is to send the transaction by clicking on the "broadcast" button. I know it seems simple and logical, but some users simply overlook the final step and wonder why that option doesn't work for them.

AFAIK there are only two admins on bitcointalk so who is the remaining 3. Huh

If you had read a few posts before you answered, then it would have been clear to you that the OP is wrong and that there are not 5 admins, but that the other 3 are actually global moderators. It is true that all of them are listed as administrators in the report form, and if you want to see exactly who it is, go to your private messages and click on any report link "report to admin". There you will get a menu where you can see what it is actually about.
2380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ultimate (simple) guide on when to buy Bitcoin. on: April 05, 2023, 10:13:43 AM
Before anyone realizes that the OP is serious in what he writes, you should read some of the previous threads he opened and see that his assumptions are mostly wrong. From the fact that the price of BTC will remain below $22 000 for a long time, to the fact that it will "very likely" fall towards $15 000.

~snip~
So, to recap everything I said here: if you just don't care about timing and want to buy Bitcoin, then start buying it right now (but only by DCA), and if you care about timing and want to take a risk to get bigger gains, then wait for the FED to start lowering rates and for the economy to become better.

Those who invest in Bitcoin should not make their decisions based on what central banks are doing, especially not waiting for interest rates to decrease and for the economy to experience some sort of recovery. Even if this happens and money becomes cheaper, it means that the demand for BTC will increase and that will push the price up - and then what logic is there in waiting to invest? Your advice is actually bad and you have been misleading people for months.
