Amazon is so big it can pretty much act like a monopoly. If you want to sell at Amazon, you may have to lower the price or even sell at a loss. Many think that their products being sold at Amazon is a commercial by itself.
So it's a complicated issue and I would not be surprised that everybody who sells at a loss at Amazon, will try to recover that loss somewhere else.
Maybe this is what "California" is implying? I don't know. It will be a very interesting case, however.

Merit spree ongoing now. Again. Quite early after the previous one (which is nice and interesting).

1. The first possible "culprit" would be your signature campaign. There's a very high chance the signature campaign money comes from the casino you're advertising.
2. One good way to get rid of warnings from "local wallets" is to actually install and use a proper wallet instead of using custodial web services where you have an account and they call it wallet. (Also I advise you use hardware wallet if there's a meaningful amount of money there).
3. You should read very good the ToS of the service you use (i.e. "local wallet") because there's a good chance that if they don't like casino money they may like even less the mixed coins.
4. I know that it can look biased because of my signature, but ChipMixer is mixing for free as long as you pay attention to the help page and send the correct amount of coins. Of course, this means also that you will have to download and use Tor browser. Also make sure you go to the correct address (see chipmixorfly address in my signature or look for CM's announcement topic).

Of course, it's up to you which mixer you use, if any, but I recommend stand alone wallet (maybe with hardware wallet) as the main step.

Since OP is using Ledger also for altcoins (see his second post in here // HBAR), I think that this advice is not OK/enough for him.
There may be a proper HBAR wallet around there that works with Ledger, but I don't know. Electrum/Wasabi will probably not.

I think that it will work fine. The problems may start if one start using "accounts" in Ledger (which are different derivation path). Plus I expect that if one starts using his Ledger with Electrum, he may not go back to LL.


This is imho the cleanest solution, but I will add that of course, if one just picks addresses from Electrum's Addresses tab, it would be nice to label them so he knowns which is for what, so he can avoid confusion.

It's nice to see new features (and this is an interesting advertising for your page), still, imho some points are missing (or not great for me)
* my home currency (RON) is not in the list
* I'm not very fond of CMC/Coingecko as price source (is it that they don't update as often as preev used to?)


Heh, same has happened to me and I concluded that one has to type the coin name, not its ticker in order to get somewhat more useful result.

In the same way some try to sell here now and then reddit or Twitter accounts, for example, they can try to sell bitcointalk accounts on other bitcoin-related social media platforms (other forums, discord, telegram channels, whatever). Probably some even do that (i.e. right now) to try to go under the radar, I don't know. But the (bitcoin) world is bigger than just bitcointalk (although most "places" may not deserve attention, this is still a reality).

You seem to have missed what I wrote above that, so I'll quote it again:


So declaring it "against the rules" would do nothing good/useful.
On the other hand, the risk of getting red tag on those accounts (i.e. the accounts that changed hands) is quite a discouragement, isn't it?

As it was said multiple times in the past, if the forum would disallow this or would impose some more difficult rules, people will just sell their accounts somewhere else.


Yeah, this is not gonna happen. Since buying/selling accounts is usually for shady reasons, nobody would say that publicly, since red tag will follow sooner or later.


This may not be such a bad idea. Would certainly make hacks less worthy/fruitful.
But this means that everybody will need to have a bitcoin address stacked, since it's the only clear verification the forum has. And this is not a requirement now.

While there are valid clues in this direction, other clues go to something way different.
I've read few days ago an analysis made by Jameson Lopp on Satoshi's mining (an interesting read, btw) and one of the conclusions was:


So... a Londoner living in LA area or in British Columbia?  

While I agree that (at least some) wallets could become more newbie friendly, your problem is not about the wallets imho, it's about how stupid the users are.
[1]
Connecting a wallet holding significant amounts of coins (as value) to a platform to gain a couple more cents is usually a bad idea.
Using the same wallet for holding life changing amounts and for daily operations is usually a bad idea.
I will add that many keep thousands of dollars worth on exchanges and web wallets instead of investing 100$ in their security and buy a hardware wallet.

[2]
Not all users are tech savvy indeed, but just imagine - for analogy - that there are some who give to unknown people all their credit card information, including the CVV code and so on, then they are surprised people steal their money (and please don't say 3DSecure is not avoided by some websites).
Now this same thing happens with crypto wallets, at a larger scale. Is the wallets' fault or is it users greed and stupidity?


So yes, you may have some points, but pointing a finger to the wallets is incorrect / not fair. Some may want to improve in a way the users understand better what they do, but they cannot do miracles. Also keep in mind that the best bitcoin wallets are free / open source projects, hence the developers work for free there.

Although trolling is not allowed, trolls are treated rather mildly (in many cases the referee pretends all is OK, knowing the spectators are too nice and won't assault the field).
Even more, such "reports", whether they're for real or not, are allowed here.

Imho one big problem is that we tend to take too serious everything and everybody, whether it's new account made for a specific purpose, to trolls, to various (useless) dudes on Twitter or the news.



Unless you have (and show) any proof I have no idea why some tend to take you serious.

Wasn't Ferrari basically the first ones solving the porpoising problem?
But, from my understanding, their fix is not OK according to the (new) rules, and since Mercedes has filled a complaint, now the cars have special sensors to verify exactly the porpoising, and the data goes to FIA.
So Ferrari has probably changed the floor of their cars and now they're more prone to porpoising than months ago.
(Again, this is how I've understood the situation and, in case I am wrong, I am happy to be corrected if somebody has more/better info).

* Be more smart and less greedy
        * Don't jump into a project/coin only based on the hype from advertisers (especially twitter)
        * Avoid any "too good to be true" investment
        * Avoid send me 1$ and I'll send back 2$ scams, no matter how reputable is the account calling for that
* Protect your coins (keep your coins on your wallet, use hardware wallet where possible, never give out wallet's seed, keep backup seed offline)

My advice is to:
1. Make some pictures of that coin, upload them onto imgur.com and add the link(s) here.
2. Move this topic into Collectibles ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=217.0 ) [the bottom-left link should work], those guys know this and some may not care of anything else from this forum.

As others already said, there are plenty of casinos accepting bitcoin.

I will add something others may have been missing: I won't want to scare you, but, I would like to advise you use your own wallet instead of using various centralized and custodial solutions (Exchanges, Web Wallets), since some (few, but still) may have in their ToS that they don't approve gambling, hence if you use those to keep your money and fund your casino account from there you may end up with the web wallet or exchange account locked (and also the funds you may have had in there).

Many people love to see their car can estimate how many miles their car can go with the current amount of gasoline, many love to see their car announce them when they don't keep the line, many would prefer more features like this.
Some know that this kind of complication makes the car easier to break and harder to fix, especially when some chips work erratically or not at all.
And some are just afraid or nostalgic about "how good were the cars <insert number here> years ago".


I am not sure what you say about China and the chips. I know that in there facial recognition is not just allowed, but used at an increasing scale, which can be a problem. In EU the laws seem to go in a better direction though.
But "digital concentration camp"? I hope you're not expecting Skynet get alive any day now...

Clearly. My point is that we should not expect them to implement the best setup/solution out of kindness, instead be aware that they may implement a solution we may not like, but brings them more profit.

The thing is not necessarily about the royal family and exempts. Imho 40% is a huge amount for any sane person, hence I am sure that especially the wealthy people do their "optimizations" as early as they can to avoid surprises.
Gold and art are the first things that come into my mind. Bitcoin is also nicely suitable for the job.

The law is something that has to keep up with the times. Imho it should be changed/improved.

You use strange words, possibly cause by some translation software you're using.
This makes it difficult for the people understand your questions, hence the answers are guesses.
You also didn't say whether your problem is solved or not. If it's not, maybe you try to ask clearer (more words at the very least) or maybe you also ask in the subforum for your local language...
