Let's take it to the outside world, celebrities like DJ Khaled, May weather etc in 2018 was charged for promoting a scam project using their social media platform. These people are influential in the society and can easily be detected if they do anything fishy with their influence on people. In such situation they'll be considered guilty and fined for misleading their followers.  Here in the forum, you are not having followers, but people can trust you, therefore trusting any company you promote here too, if need arises for investigation on you for promoting a company, you'll be charged according to what you got paid. Though, it's rare because how would all the participants get charged to pay regarding the difference in locations and identity.
Don't compare yourself to celebrities because laws are different for you and for them. Okay, let the police forces arrest you for possession of hard drugs and then compare yourself to the celebrities who were arrested for the possession of hard drugs. You'll easily end up in jail but celebrities will still be free because it's the fame, status, money that protects them from everything. Imagine Lionel Messi decided to use drugs, do you really believe that any government ever arrest him? Can you imagine what would happen in the world if any police force arrest him?

Wearing the signature on this forum to me looks like wearing a company's t-shirt in public. How can anyone arrest me if I wear some company's logo and url? Even if I print amphetamine logo on my t-shirt and paint a tattoo on my face, I think I'm safe.

How many years is R Kelly in Jail, Kodak black served, 6ix9ine served, Surge tupac's boss still serving his jail time. What do you think of celebrities; little gods. Indeed it depends on your environment and the emotions you've got for these people. Law is above everyone depending on the level of evidence used on them. Nothing would happen in the world if the Police arrests Messi, his reputation would collapse like Terra. These are not even Government officials.

Are you paid to wear the company's Tshirt in street? so it's quite different from the forum signature since you're being paid to insert it on your signature space. Moreover, putting any code or url on your signature space doesn't guarantee payment.


That won't be feasible in the forum since the forum cancels any project once it's dictated to be a scam project.
I didn't say the project scams. I said it launders money. The former can be instantly detected, while the latter may not be detected ever.

I think the law enforcement agencies only focus on the advertisers if they promote a company which has been classified scam.
I'm more than sure that law enforcement will focus on the prosperity of a service that is proved to launder money.

You don't have any reason to be a part of the money laundry case, the law enforcement focuses only on two parties the company owner and the people that used the company to launder money. For instance, the recent news that Binance is used by drug cartels to launder money. Does it mean everybody that promotes Binance would be arrested? even the direct employees has nothing to bother about other than losing their jobs. CZ is the person to answer for it as the CEO, and if he can provide the names of the drug dealers he can go scot-free; proving to the court that he doesn't work for the cartel. That is if he's arraigned.
2522  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Minimum deposit and minimum withdrawal. on: January 18, 2023, 08:36:41 AM
Someone with a strict budget of gambling with $10, decides to start online gambling after been told by a friend, but on signing up discovers that the minimum deposit accepted is above the amount budgetted for gambling. Does high minimum deposit fees from online casino discourage gamblers who want to stick to a budget and influences them to gamble with bigger amounts? If yes, and that perhaps is a reason behind many other online casinos keeping their minimum deposits as low as $1, Could low minimum deposit be an encouragement for people to come gamble regardless of the money they have to gamble? Does minimum withdrawal encourage players to try again and keep gambling if they don't win up to the minimum withdrawal?

You know that usually in crypto gambling in the industry, the minimum deposit is 20$ or more my knowledge and experience of gambling websites.

    Maybe for others the 1$ lowest deposit is encouraging to gamblers who hope to grow their small gambling capital, but for gamblers who want to gamble in casinos, I think that if they want to gamble it will make a way for them to only be able to gamble in crypto gambling.

I don't see anything wrong in having a high minimum deposit, his money is not lost until he stakes, the person always has an option to check other casinos that accepts lesser than his budget or add up some funds to meet up their minimum deposit then stake 10 dollars at the moment, another day he can stake the remaining. But such a person is not yet ready to gamble, because it's like paying for a hotel bill that's above your budget and starts bothering if such bill discourages other people or encourage them to pay higher. Gambling is fun and recreational, and if you can't meet up with a specific casino price try other ones like the 1 dollar minimum. What matters is going there and coming out happy. Regardless of win or loss.

On the other hand, only gambling newbies will get carried away by the 1$ minimum deposits. A player should have in mind how much they'll want to gamble for the period of their stay in the casino and they're no need to bother about how much the minimum withdrawal is, the money there is meant for gambling and a player shouldn't be in a hurry to withdraw his funds, that is, if he truly budgeted the funds he deposited on the casino for gambling purposes.

I hope "skills to mills" is not going to take that same path."

I think the website is just starting and the advise should be one step at a time, Op needs to attract more traffics before getting lobbied to write on projects that may not be good for his audience. Having said that, which he claimed not to be a part of such practice. I'd say that Op should work with high DA sites on the cryptocurrency niche for guest posts and building back links. It's a long process, but it'll pay off on the long run considering the number of cryptocurrency blogs that shuts down on daily basis. Staying in the market, OP, is your greatest weapon, and even if you don't want to run the site again, it can be sold for a good amount. In addition, I love the simplicity and the speed of the webpages they are good and it'll help readers to stay longer on your site which will help the ranking of the pages. Keep it up and don't stop.

What really happens when you try to login, does it open and crash immediately? Or did the app disappear completely from your phone? If so try running it from the app files or restart your device. Have you checked your wallet address on explorer to know if your funds are intact? Just to be sure your phone didn't get a malware attack. Sorry about the incident, if the keys are written on a paper it'll be hard to find it, do you recall accessing your wallet with another phone? It can be of help accessing your wallet again with that other phone. The problem is mainly from your OS it may no longer be compatible with the app, that's why an update is always required.

It's okay to have other sources of income as a bitcoiner it'll help to keep your bitcoin safe. But, if a person has no other source of getting fiat except selling their bitcoin it's not a bad Idea. Since the aim is to make money, it should be spent as well. The truth why it seems hodl is the major advise is that it helps everyone to make profits, once people starts selling the price will be going down, which doesn't help the growth of bitcoin. Having regrets over not taking people's hodl advise depends on how you feel about the market trend. Sometimes after selling at 17k the price hits 21k, as human, you'll have a bit of regret in you for not having patience. That's why we're told to hold, the price can move further and those that didn't hold would regret selling low.
2526  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin & China time to time waving History on: January 17, 2023, 11:00:03 AM
You forgot to mention the Chinese ban of cryptocurrency accounts on Wechat. China has been a torn in the market, but the market don't need them to succeed. Bitcoin price would still go bullish with or without them. However, given time the Chinese government may consider lifting the ban on bitcoin as power could change and their next administration can consider using bitcoin again. Many businesses would prosper in China if bitcoin is accepted again within the country. Hence that doesn't stop the citizens from having cryptocurrency or investing into the market just that they are lesser amount of Chinese in cryptocurrency after the general ban on the currency. The ICO era was so drastic on investors around the world not just the Chinese, though some Chinese developers had their own ICO telegram groups, which ended up as Scam. Their Government is just doing this to promote their own digital currency and make money out of it.

2528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you handle your losses on: January 17, 2023, 03:25:54 AM
Personally, if I have some cash left I'll switch game. It keeps me balance to think differently and focuses my brain on winning again. I've noticed that continuously playing a game while losing can leave an instinct that you lose again. So, tackling my losses won't be to stop gambling or calm my nerves down, such idea wouldn't stop me from losing further bets.


If losses are stressful for you, then stopped doing gambling. What's the point?

The fact that you need to undergo lots of things just to handle your losses, that's a problem already.

No offense but gambling is not for the weak. If experiencing struggles to bounce back after a loss then gambling it's not for you.

It's common amongst players, win or lose makes up the game and the question is focused on one side. How do you handle your winnings questions rarely or doesn't pop up because the casino has to worry about it alone, when one win they'll forget to bother about it. Same way should be applicable to losses, it's a game and one term shouldn't be considered painful than the other. When a player is losing, the casino is winning and vice versa. Though, people differs and are in the game for different purposes, they can't avoid losses, so they'll need a way to calm things down maybe the gambled money was not meant to be gambled. I think that's the purpose for the thread. Players against Casinos.
2529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is It good For The Casinos And The Accusers If .. on: January 17, 2023, 02:17:49 AM
It's a poor customer service not to take accusations here as many players who wants to use the casino would want to know better about the Casino before signing up. Referring accusations to arbitrary sites may not help players in this forum who don't use such site for casino reviews. If it's good for the casino and not favorable to the accuser then it's not proper, disputes should be tackled here for all users to see. However, according to Pmalek response, if they don't want their sports book to be investigated then its not a good idea for users as they're not getting a complete version of services from the casino, and its risky to use such platforms as issues may not be resolved in a manner that'll leave the player happy. Every player should get a satisfying solution to their problem with a casino.
2530  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are we legally associated with advertised services? on: January 16, 2023, 04:14:29 PM
I think it will depends on how popular you are and what's your power/position on that's project.


That won't be feasible in the forum since the forum cancels any project once it's dictated to be a scam project. I think the law enforcement agencies only focus on the advertisers if they promote a company which has been classified scam. According to OP's complaint, I'd say if the project is working fine and you promote them it's not a problem. The problem begins when you promote a known scam that's wrong. It's not your fault if a genuine company turned a scam in future. You are not guilty by any means. Look at 1xbit the promoters are getting negative reviews in the forum for promoting a known scam it's actually their fault and members can be considered guilty for promoting them, because they help in deceiving people.

Let's take it to the outside world, celebrities like DJ Khaled, May weather etc in 2018 was charged for promoting a scam project using their social media platform. These people are influential in the society and can easily be detected if they do anything fishy with their influence on people. In such situation they'll be considered guilty and fined for misleading their followers.  Here in the forum, you are not having followers, but people can trust you, therefore trusting any company you promote here too, if need arises for investigation on you for promoting a company, you'll be charged according to what you got paid. Though, it's rare because how would all the participants get charged to pay regarding the difference in locations and identity.
2531  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Pumping After The Arrest of Sam on: January 16, 2023, 03:27:34 PM
However, this cannot be the reason for the price improvement, because it has occurred since the beginning of last month.  Moreover, stopping him does not solve the crises in which the market occurred because of him, because he simply cannot compensate for the losses because the value of his property and the property of the platform exceeds the compensation that is supposed to be paid to the direct affected users of the platform.
 The improvement in market prices in recent days may be caused by the announcement of the start of disbursing compensation to those affected by the mtgox scam, starting next March, and the announcement of Ethereum about the fork, which will enable the beneficiaries of staking services to withdraw their money.

It's easier to predict the reason to a plunging bitcoin price compared to the bullish bitcoin price. They are many criterion starting from the market makers, whales and individuals in the market who can impact positively to the market price. I think we should be more concerned about how far it'll go and worry about if it'll go back bearish. Guessing over the reason we are making profits shouldn't be a problem as we may be predicting wrongly.

As for SBF's arrest being the reason to an increase in price it's wrong, if he has been tried and accepts to refund affected customers their money then it could help the market go back in place. Since the crash of his company affected the market price, fixing his mistake can help the correction of bitcoin price. I think at the moment, bitcoin price has not moved so bullish to call it a bull run we are still bearish. Wait for 30k
2532  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One of the largest US colleges to teach students about bitcoin on: January 16, 2023, 02:45:00 PM
If done right it could help to really improve bitcoin literacy among the younger generation and also improve their financial knowledge. My only reservation is if the teaching would be done in the proper manner, showing the decentralization, anonymity and control the holder has and not as a way to promote centralized platforms or spread disinformation or propaganda.
This reservation stems from the fact that the school is a centralized system and the curriculum would need to be approved by the government.

Heard about that the other day. Very bullish news for bitcoin.
Not bullish in the short term, but slow adoption through education would be great for the future.

- Jay -

From the article, you are right, but they are two parties, and the both will affect the cryptocurrency market in future. One is the bitcoin development class and the other the bitcoin regulation class.

Quote
Adjunct Professor Thomas Hook of the University of Boston Law School recently told Cointelegraph that the law school is now offering a “crypto regulation” course for students

These law students will be built to understand why and how to regulate the bitcoin market, which may not be a good suggestion for the cryptocurrency developer's class. As they'll be a coalition of the law students in future to try regulating the bitcoin market and they may achieve that, as they started early to study it alongside the crypto development students who may be sharing some information to them, how such things can be made possible.  However, it's a welcomed development and new ideas can be harvested from the students reactions in class.
2533  Economy / Exchanges / Re: FTX Exchange might be brought back online - Would you use it again? on: January 14, 2023, 02:25:30 PM
If not for what happened about Binance sales of its FTT token that resulted to panic and leading to the exchange hack, the exchange might not have been hacked.


Yeah, on his recent substack post, he pointed out CZ as one of the causes of FTX fall. However, I'm not impressed with people that blame others for their failure. Such a person won't gain my trust even when awarded a second chance. SBF one bit never accepted he caused it, he keeps blaming people; calling names. What's wrong with CZ taking what belongs to him.

I agree that funds should be returned to as many people as possible, but I do not agree that FTX should ever start functioning again after everything that happened.


Sam already vouched that he would use his personal funds in Robinhood to pay all the customers, I think he is doing all this to reduce his jail term and melt the heart of the people. I agree, FTX shouldn't function anymore, as they're no certainty to not seeing another mistake by them in the market. That would be a bad reputation for the cryptocurrency market. It won't help anyone.
2534  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcointalk on the phone? on: January 14, 2023, 02:01:24 PM
Bitcointalk does not have a mobile view a lot of members to proposing to have this but some of them want to stick where it starts, there's nothing wrong with it, only way to make it is to pinch your screen to zoom in, also developing for the mobile view makes the hassle to the dev too since people here already used to it.

That's right. Bitcointalk does not have a mobile version, but you can still access it on your phone by using a mobile web browser. Some users prefer to use browser extensions such as "Reading Mode" or "Reader View" that can make the website more mobile-friendly. Additionally, you can try using a third-party app such as "Tapatalk" which allows you to access some online forums, although I'm not sure if Bitcointalk is still supported. I think I read somewhere that it doesn't work anymore.


Wouldn't the third party app be a treat to the user's password or private information in the forum. I've seen one in the forum that was said to be vulnerable in keeping user's details safe. I may not recommend third part apps for an anonymous a forum like BTT. However using the forum with a small screen resolution phone dulls the impression of staying to read responses word for word in the forum. I don't use it because of my eyes, those tiny writings on phone are not good for my sights. Though, when it's relevant to use the forum with a phone I'd do that, but that won't be when I have a PC around. The question should be would you use a phone to access the forum even when a PC is with you?

Playstore is not ideal for downloading applications, and always check the permissions requested by any app either downloaded on the official website, or on play or apple store.

- Jay -

Google is not concerned about what is listed on the playstore, as google is working hard to provide everyone with an answer to any app they're looking for in the playstore. But, to make things easier for users, the review page is there to tackle disputes like this. If a person reads through all the reviews written about an app (though some are lies) they'll find the truth about the app, whether it's real or fake. However many people don't care about reading reviews; such people get disappointed after downloading the file or app.

In a situation like this, users are advised to stick with the official website of chatgpt if they want to utilize their AI. Hence, some developers are also building apps with the GPT api, like the "ORIGINALITY", I think they are the sites listed on app store. Note: not all of them would be harmful to users. Everyone need to be careful with taking decisions. Moreover, openAI would be launching a premium version of chatgpt soon, maybe it'll reduce the spam. The site is lagging even at the moment.
2536  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin Market Place for Multi Vendors on: January 14, 2023, 11:56:13 AM


Any advice welcome, we want to start something mainstream which shows the masses that bitcoin can be used
literally for anything.

Thanks guys

Out of the above lists by bitcoindust, It depends on your budget, but paid adverts would get you immediately what you need. Working with SEO would consume so much money, and the results won't manifest easily. Get untop with google Adwords and expose the site to both parties, store owners and buyers. Hence, staying in the market for long term should be your concern, as the market changes it could change for the good of bitcoin ecommerce stores, and you won't get left behind. Another strategy which is not on that list is email marketing. It'll be wrong for clients to visit a store with few store owners. With the help of mass email from an expert; getting the attention of store owners could be of help to your growth. Consider scrapping emails on IG or company websites. It's more effective and you'd see more results.
2537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How wrongful can this go? on: January 14, 2023, 11:40:24 AM
I don't like giving out my private information for any project or platforms online and I have no choice but to provide wrong personal details in order to maintain anonymity, how bad can this get if anything happens to the website system?

Is this a wrongful approach to online casinos that requires KYC? Or any of you have a better solution? There must be someone like me on here that have their ways around this. Share ideas if you can.
Giving out your false information might cause you a trouble in the future, better not to put too much money on that so your account still be safe from any investigation.
If you are not ok with the KYC better not to gamble on that site at all and just go to other option since there are still site that are KYC free. KYC is slowly becoming a thing now, most of the site already requires a general information and that can allow you to gamble already there might be a limitation but at least you can start gambling by just giving out your full name.

No registered casino would want to be held responsible for money laundering, that's why KYC is a strict rule for most casinos. The government wouldn't mind if a casino is registered or not before taking them to court after getting caught of money laundering.

Although, it's possible for Op to achieve his tricks, but the possibility is thin and he might get caught. I'd say, Op, should focus on crypto casino; pays withdrawal in cryptocurrency other than bank. Casinos like Gamdom are so good without any KYC required for new users. But, if he persists about playing with one casino that accepts KYC then you can hire somebody or a partner to snap themselves and bypass their requirements. It works fine, but the person is meant to be available when next KYC is required. Some people don't care about giving out their data online, pay them to render such services to you.

What kind of contents do you have in mind for your book title? Indeed bitcoin is a new part of human life, but writing a book under the umbrella of other people's stories won't have any concrete background for your text. They should be a message you are passing to your readers then link it to the stories you'll get from people. They're only two kinds of stories in this market, just like the main aspect of the ecosystem bull and bear, success and failure. Stories will always be about " I knew about bitcoin and didn't invest ", " I wish I invested in bitcoin long ago " though, some people had a profitable experience of bitcoin. My story is about not hodling bitcoin when I had them at a cheap rate, when the price got to 50k I had a regret of not holding my coins a bit longer.

The AI will leave a lot of people jobless.

There will still be people remaining around to control and monitor the AIs though.

EDIT: considering Google's entire business model is threatened by ChatGPT, I'm also sure they will update reCAPTCHA to be a kind of anti-AI service - besides, they don't have any AI startup of their own to juice up.

Despite the threat Chatgpt has on people's career, I like the fact that google is getting a strong competitor with a unique feature other than bringing rules now and then to suffocate webmasters. No more monopoly on the internet, people now have a choice of search engine with a touch of interaction with the machine. Though, google is not threatened in any form as the world biggest search engine they can decide to flag any content from their search engine regarding chatgpt and de-rank its site. I think the live sperm of chatGpt can be shortened with just a few line of code from google. They also have the money to buy off the company, and add it to theirs. However, I won't be surprised to know that google has a hand in the chatgpt AI, they're quite quiet about it.
