I never heard about that I'll check it out 0.0025 BTC worth of spin is a good promotion. Do they have special requirements for that for example do I need first to verify my account before I can get that promotion or any new created accounts can claim that 300 spins?
No, you don't have to verify your account (as long as you don't do anything suspecious that requires identity verification such as logging in from a restricted country). The minimum deposit to be eligible to claim the free spins bonus is 0.6mBTC and the number of free spins varies depending on the deposited amount.
The free spins are available only on Aloha King Elvis slot game and the only requirement is to wager 1x the deposited amount to enable withdrawals.
check their bonus terms and conditions for more details.

I've only just figures out that the cost of transferring cryptocurrencies depends on which crytptocurrency I transfer.  Is that correct?
That's correct. Transaction fees vary depending on the coin used. But you have to know that it also varies for the same coin from time to time depending on the coin's network status: the more congested the network is, the higher the fees you have to pay (this applies to networks which use the POW algorithm, not sure about the others).
Also, some custodial services charge flat fees which are usually way higher than the real network fee paid to miners.

I agree with hosseinimr, those transactions IDs do not prove or mean anything.
The first thing you need to do is to prove that you issued those transactions and that the receiving addresses belong to godex.io. Then you need to provide more details and explain how you got scammed.

Did you try to contact their customer support?
They have an announcement thread here (although it han't been active for a long time) and an official representative on bitcointalk so try to reach out to him via PMs.

i set up a standard electrum wallet with my seed phrase from blockchain.com and realised that  it's the imported addresse's private key that i must export not the seed phrase ,do i have to set up another electrum wallet to export the private key
Just a heads up, although a bit off-topic, when you import your blockchain wallet seed directly into Electrum, in most cases it will not recognize it as a valid seed and if it does it will generate a new wallet with addresses different from the ones you have on your blockchain.com wallet.
This is because blockchain.com follows the bip39 standard while Electrum has its own standard.
To import bip39 seeds into Electrum, make sure to tick the bip39 checkbox.

Very good !! go delete all people who sells accounts !! c'mon !! no one have negative like people did this to me !!!
As explained above, buying/selling bitcointalk acounts is frowned upon by the community since it encourages spam and scams. And, afaik, anyone who have been caught selling/buying bitcointalk accounts has been tagged. So, your case is not an exception and don't expect a special treatment.

You should also know that trust is not moderated so even mods can't help you remove those negative feedbacks.

2446  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: FAKE Coin Market CAP ICO coinmarketcoin.io on: April 07, 2022, 12:26:18 PM
To add to the evidence you provided, if you look up their eth address on etherscan.io you will get the following warning message: "Warning! There are reports that this address was used in a Phishing scam. Please exercise caution when interacting with this address." So, no doubt that this is a scam.
This, at least, proves that reporting scams is not useless or a waste of time as some may think.
Other than reporting the fake website to google, we can also report it to the domain registrar (Sav.com) and to the hosting company.
2447  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 WINZ.IO 🚀 $50,000 CANDYLAND QUEST 🍭 WELCOME BONUS: 300 FREE SPINS 🎁 on: April 06, 2022, 10:18:24 PM
They claim that they have no wager requirements for the free spins. But you have to wager your deposit .5x or 1x I think. If you do so and then withdraw your winnings or your initial deposit they restrict you from receiving further promos. Seemed sus to me back then and is still suspicious to me now.
The wagering requirement is 1x the deposited amount only not your winnings from free spins. So, technically their claim about no wagering requirement on free spins is true.

Honestly, I don't think there is anything suspicious or shady here. Their bonus terms and conditions clearly states that they have the right to ban you from participating in their next promtions if they find out you are making deposits only to take advantage of the free spin bonuses and cash out as soon as you meet the wagering requirement (playing low risk games):
Should the player claim no wagering slot bonus and circumvent payout wagering requirements via low risk betting in table or live casino games, this could trigger thorough KYC, removal from further promotions participation and depending on severity of policy breach – account suspension.

I haven't used blockchain[dot]com for years so not sure what's causing the problem or how to fix it from the platform itself.
But since you said it' an imported address then I suppose you have access the addresse's private key! If that's the case then try to import it into a better wallet such as Electrum (make sure to download it from the official website: electrum.org), then create the transaction and broadcast it from there.
2449  Other / Meta / Re: Phishing warning on PM on: April 05, 2022, 11:19:07 PM
Clearly, this feature was added recently after the noticeable increase of phishing attempts via PMs and the so many topics complaining about it.

I made few tests (by sending messages to my self, didn't try image links yet) to see when the warning will appear. What I noticed so far is that the warning message appears when an image is used as a link or when the link text is a URL and it does not match the real link's destination.
Also, if the link text is a bitcointalk's URL, the message will be edited to display the real link's destination (omit url tags).

What is interesting is that the warning doesn't appear when the phishing link is inside quote tags! theymos need to fix this since it can be exploited by scammers to bypass the warning system. or whatever its name is

هم اعداء ما يجهلون.
للاسف بسبب جهل المشرعين لا توجد قوانين واضحة و بسبب عجز المسؤولين و الاداريين عن فهم هذه التقنيات الحديثة و ضعف كفاءتهم (لاسباب نعلمها جميعا) فانهم لا يستطيعون اتخاذ القرارات الصحيحة و السليمة و الحل الاسهل بالنسبة لهم هو المنع و الحجز.

المشكلة ان المواطن البسيط ليس بيده حيلة و كما يقال "لمن تشكي اذا كان خصمك القاضي!"
بالنسبة لهذه الوضعية، اعتقد ان الحل الانسب هو الاتصال بادارة الجمارك مباشرة و محاولة الشرح للعون هناك فربما يفهم و يقوم برفع الحجز و تسليم القطعة لصاحبها. على الاغلب قيمة القطعة لا تساوي المجهود الذي سيبذله، للاسف.

العديدون في بلدي يلومون الشباب على هجرتهم الى البلدان الاجنبية، سواء بطريقة شرعية او سرية، لكن لو شاركتكم بعض الحوادث التي تقع بشكل يومي هنا لما لامهم اي احد بل لشجعهم الجميع على الهجرة باسرع وقت ممكن.

في بلدي، اضافة لعدم وجود طرق دفع دولية فانه حتى ان وجدت طريقة لذلك فعلى الاغلب سيتم حجز المنتج او ستظطر لدفع اداءات جمركية تفوق قيمة السلعة بعدة اضعاف.
وقعت معي حادثة هنا في المنتدى مضحكة مبكية. منذ مدة شاركت في مسابقة مجانية و فزت بقطعة تذكارية و عندما ارسلت عنواني لمنظم المسابقة لكن الصدمة كانت حين اعلمني ان شركة الشحن ترفض الشحن لبلدي و السبب هو: كثرة عمليات سرقة البضائع من قبل الجمارك!!!
للامانة منظم المسابقة، مشكور، اقترح علي اختيار ارسال القطعة لاي قريب لي في بلد اخر.
تصور مدى الاحراج الذي احسست بسبب امر ليس لدي فيه اي دخل!
ترددت قبل مشاركة هذه القصة لكن اعتقد انها تلخص الوضع في بعض بلداننا للاسف.
2451  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Exchanges - How many people have access to Cold storage Private keys? on: April 02, 2022, 11:53:34 PM
The private keys for cold wallets must not be in one single man's hands for security and safety reasons. Here is an example why it's not recommended:
A crypto exchange may have lost $145 million after its CEO suddenly died
A multi-sig set up is a must so no one (even the exchange owner) can run away with the customers funds and if one of the private keys get compromized the funds remain safe.

Exchanges are not wallets and no one should use them to store his coins, not even for a short period of time.
2452  Economy / Exchanges / Re: I am worried about SCAM. I am newbie and opinions. BTCSquare.com vs .net on: April 02, 2022, 11:22:50 PM
When I try to withdraw it says the running bill is insufficient.
Do they have a minimum withdraw limit? Do they charge fees on withdrawals? One of these is usually the reason why you would get a not-enough-balance error message (in case the service is legit).
If your balance is higher than their minimum limit and you have enough to pay for the fees and they are asking you to deposit more, then this is definitely a scam. Do not send them any more money!
2453  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake charging $3.09 on a $1.69 withdraw on: April 02, 2022, 10:28:53 PM
BTC is just not okay for gambling anymore, it is too slow and too expensive and totally useless, stablecoins are the way for me.
Sorry, but I don't agree with this especially saying that using bitcoin is useless! There are many solutions and workarounds to all the issues you mentioned such as accepting instant deposits, batching withdrawal transactions, using the lightning network... But, unfortunately, many crypto businesses are too lazy or incompetent to implement them.
Besides, for the past few months, most of the time 1-5 sat/vb is enough for a fast confirmation.
For more than three years I didn't use any cryptocurrency other than bitcoin and I can't complain.
2454  Other / Meta / Re: An attempt was made to steal my password on: April 02, 2022, 09:29:42 PM
I wonder how these scammers come up with the clone sites. They do spend some money on all this stuff in order to gain access to people's accounts???
No, not really. You can buy a .com domain name for as low as $0.99 on the black friday sales for example and you can host the phishing page locally or on a free web hosting service. So, it's not really that costly.
Scammers add sub domains that look almost like the legit domain to fool the visitor. Something like this:
Code:
https://legit-domain.xyz.phishing-domain.com

Quote
As per the above post, this person has sent messages to other users also, is there anyone who got affected by sending the password?
Not sure if anyone got phished but having a stacked address will help you recover your account if it gets hacked.
2455  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin-instant credit?? on: April 02, 2022, 08:41:49 PM
I don't think there is a gambling site that has  Bitcoin instant credit since it is prone to exploitation especially if your wallet has a replaced by fee feature like Electrum wallet. Most of them needs 1 confirmation which is around 5-10 minutes for higher fee.
Yes this feature is risky but there are few measures that the casino can take to mitigate such risk.
I already named two casinos which accept instant deposits (roobet.com and livecasino.io). I named only these two because I tried them myself. Other members named other casinos which have this feature too. I didn't try them but I have no reason not to believe them.
The double spending risk can be easily mitigated by crediting only transactions that don't have the rbf flag.
2456  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Always go through CMC when trying to find info about a project, avoid fake links on: April 02, 2022, 08:02:06 PM
I won't lie, when I was new to cryptocurrencies and didn't know much about it, coinmarketcap was the first website I visit if I needed some information about a coin or a token such ad its official website or on which exchanges it's listed. I used to use blockchain.info as my main wallet too!

But it didn't take me long to realize that they are not that reliable and there are better alternatives especially after their stupid April fools' prank when they listed a fake token (toilet paper) as #1 which got exploited by some scam exchanges and resulted in many users losing their money. I don't think I ever visited their website since they got acquired by binance.
2457  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀Moonbet Crypto Sportsbook & Casino | 💸Instant $250 Deposit Bonus on: April 02, 2022, 06:56:12 PM
I thought their deposit bonus as posted in the ANN was too good to be true until I saw their post about the rollover requirements. So a player have to bet a maximum of $7,500 before he could withdraw the $250 welcome bonus. Did I get that right?
...
I think Moonbet's team has made this decision after considering all aspects which will be beneficial for them. So I'll wait for the next campaign maybe they will offer something more.
To be honest, the 15 times wagering requirement imposed by moonbet is not that high. Many other casinos have a 30-40x rollover before you can withdraw your winnings from bonuses. So it's not really that bad.
Of course, the more you play the more you are likely to lose but it's free money after all and even if you lose it all that's not a big deal. Aside from that, it can help reduce bonuses abuse.
2458  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀Moonbet Crypto Sportsbook & Casino | 💸Instant $250 Deposit Bonus on: April 02, 2022, 05:27:02 PM
Welcome back Moonbet!
The Deposit Bonus is 100% up to $250. So, if you bet $50 you will receive $50 in bonus funds. If you put $1000, you will receive $250 as that is the maxiumum.

You can withdraw without KYC guaranteed until at least 2000Euros with of money has been deposits in order to satisfy requirement for our license. But, let's say you deposit $100, get the $100 bonus and turn it into $2000, you do NOT need KYC to withdraw your funds.
Thank you for all the clarifications. The 100% deposit bonus seems really tempting especially with the only 15x wagering requirement. I'll definitely give it a try.
***Must bet 100% of your original stake in order to withdraw your original stake.
So after finishing the bonus 15x wagering, we have to wager 1x time the deposited amount then we can withdraw the whole balance, right!

btw, avoid making consecutive posts in a row. it's against forum rules and may result in temp-ban if you keep doing it. Instead of replying to each user individually, merge all your replies in one post.
2459  Economy / Gambling / Re: how to choose best Gambling website for Gambling ? on: April 02, 2022, 04:33:05 PM
Another thing OP, since you are new to gambling, as you said, you don't have to understand all those advanced terms especially if you are not going to place a really big number of bets or make high amount wagers. If you are gambling for fun then a basic understanding of what rtp or he mean is more than enough. A small gambler, in most cases, won't notice the difference between two platforms that have different rtp or house edge.
My advice is to find a reputable and easy to use casino which offer your favorite games. Make sure to carefully read their ToS before creating an account and making a deposit.
2460  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake charging $3.09 on a $1.69 withdraw on: April 02, 2022, 03:13:20 PM
I will much rather deposit a coin with much lower withdrawal fees (like TRX) and then when I win, withdraw in TRX.

Stake is charging a Premium fee on Bitcoin (BTC) withdrawals because the miners fees can be very high some times. I think it is wise to charge a little higher fees on Blockchains with a higher miner fee, so that you can collect a bigger fund when you deal with transactions with high inputs.
Yes, using a different cryptocurrency which has lieer transaction fees is the best thing to do, whenever possible. The only drawback is that this is not always an option either because the customer doesn't have any coins in his wallet other than bitcoin or because the casino does not have an internal exchange so you can withdraw only in the same cryptocurrency you used to deposit.
