Feel free to report plagiarism in this thread. But please make it easy on the moderators by checking modlog the next day (or a few days later) and edit your post when the account has been banned. Example: username banned! UpdateBelow is the answer by mprep (Global Moderator). 33. Posting plagiarized content is not allowed.[e] - Does this rule apply to images? AFAIK no, it doesn't apply to images.
Thank you, can I quote you? Feel free.
UpdateTheymos wrote this: Nobody is banned strictly because of "the rules"; it's always handled case-by-case, but almost always, plagiarists deserve to be permabanned.
If you think that a ban should be ended, make your case in a new topic from a "good for the forum as a whole" perspective.
Most plagiarism from copy/pasting spambots or shitposters deserves a permban. However, Admin can make exceptions if it's better for the forum if the user in question returns. Example: redsn0w got a 30 day ban, and 2 year signature ban. Signature bans are displayed on the profile page, and have been handed out before. I'm quoting the image to draw attention to this update: You can use Vod's BPIP.org to check if an account has been banned (thanks Veleor). Update to this topic See |LIST| Banned users for a list of 159k banned accounts. See which one suits you best, so we don't report them again. I just stumbled upon a proven case of framing someone for plagiarism:The scammer can take the original text from the forum, post on his website changing the date and write a complaint, and also delete it by editing it. We need to study this problem. After investigation, and with help from the rest of the mod team, I've determined that inbizin = bitkoinguru$$$. He created that blog post (registering the domain in June) and then made that post in Meta in order to frame you. The moderator who actually did the banning was not a Russian moderator, but was acting upon what seemed to be a clear case of plagiarism. The thought of this type of attack had occurred to me before, but this is the first time that it's actually been done successfully. I'll have to think about countermeasures.
Users lhmrij and xca900174 deserve a permban. Update: banned. lhmrijI noticed this post ( archived): I wonder how the recent BTC TX backlog will affect future byte distributions.
This is a direct copy/past from this post ( archived): I wonder how the recent BTC TX backlog will affect future byte distributions.
I checked the post he made before this one ( archived): Blackcoin's growth is actually quite modest compared to many other alts. I wouldn't read too much into this without context.
It's also a copy/past from someone else ( archived): Blackcoin's growth is actually quite modest compared to many other alts. I wouldn't read too much into this without context.
Edit: xca900174This user does the same. Copy/paste ( archived): i have two questions, when the next distribution will be? and can i link the same bitcoin address to another byteball address for the next distribution or i need more bitcoin linked with new address
Original post ( archived): i have two questions, when the next distribution will be? and can i link the same bitcoin address to another byteball address for the next distribution or i need more bitcoin linked with new address?
I doubt they speaks English. Both are Chinese, both use the same SONM ICO signature.

There is one flaw in your service: how is someone going to pay you for your service, if paying you can take just as long as the original transaction takes to confirm? I suggest migrating to a better wallet with less inputs.
The wallet has no influence on how many inputs you received. Do you even know how Bitcoin transactions work?

I recently paid $11 for a $20k transaction. I still think that's not too bad. I also paid $24 for a $50k transaction about an hour ago.
On a big transaction it might not matter much, but that doesn't change the problem high fees cause for small transactions. The amount of money you send has nothing to do with the fee you pay. I can show you a $550 transaction with $27 fee, and at 231 sat/byte it's not even enough to confirm fast. needless to say the days of making paper wallets of .1 BTC and handing them out to people are gone with these fees. When Bitcoin was worth $200, a 0.1 BTC paper wallet was a nice $20 gift, and could be spend without fee at all (if the coins had matured enough to have medium priority). Now 0.01 BTC is (almost) $20, but it requires $1 on fees. And another $1 when the receiving party wants to spend it. I'm using what I believe will be bitcoin's replacement, XEM, for cold storage wallets This one (and many other altcoins) goes up by many (dozens of) percents per day. You don't need cold storage to make a quick buck there. But I think the rise of alts is mainly caused by Bitcoin's limitations. Everybody still wants Bitcoins, but it's much cheaper and faster to use altcoins.

Byteball White Paper Page 1: .. Witnesses are reputable users with real-world identities, and users who name them expect them to never try to double-spend. ..
Byteball White Paper Page 9: .. some of the participants of our network are non-anonymous reputable people or companies who might have a long established reputation, or they are businesses interested in keeping the network healthy. We’ll call them witnesses... (I would also recommend anyone to read till page 11 ..)
ByteFan is posting his witness on a French server in this topic a lot. He registered his account on Bitcointalk just last month, which is no where close to being a reputable person or company. Posting it over and over again seems to be his way to get people to use his witness, but I see no reason for trusting him. It could be he's just a honest enthousiast, but I can't know for sure. What would be more interesting is to be able to decide how you can trust a witness. A high level green trust Bitcointalk user could work, but also exchange Bittrex could decide to run a public witness.

I can do this, but let's keep it in public for the sake of discussion. After all, you're a Newbie with zero trust. I am looking for alpha testers for a new bitcoin mixer. Required: - you can use Tor - you can use Bitcoin I love your last requirement If you are interested send me PM with following information: 1. Which wallet do you use? Core, Mycelium, Electrum, Blockchain.info 2. Do you split funds to multiple wallets for privacy? Say I have 1 Bitcoin, and I split it up to 3 different wallets. That barely improves privacy. If anything, it links those 3 wallets together. 3. Have you ever used other mixers? I don't use the ones that call themselves mixers. I have used several other methods to "mix" coins though. 4. Have you ever used Bitcoin private keys? Let's put it this way: if you don't have the private key, you don't own the Bitcoins. However, this has nothing to do with a mixer. Why do you ask? I am looking for testers with mixed ability and experience. Responding "no" or "i do not know" to one or all questions does not disqualify you.
I will contact only selected testers with service address and additional information. Here too: keep this in public! If you think people will start sending funds to a random address a Newbie calls a mixer, well, you're probably right, people get scammed in many different ways. I will pay 0.01 BTC for your opinion about idea, functions and usability of new service. Original and insightful review may get tip of another 0.01 BTC.
Once again: why hiding in PM?

The signing-problem above was solved in a separate thread. I currently have 1.3 BTC linked for the next round. I might add Stellar Lumens to this thread, starting from the end of June.

CLOSED After running for nearly a year, this giveaway has ended. Thank you all for joining! A total of 1.933 BTC has been won from Free Lottery Tickets, currently worth $3,611.29.
The Lottery Results show less and less people join our Lottery by buying Tickets. In many recent Draws most tickets came from this giveaway.
It's time to change things: We're now moving the Free Lottery Tickets Giveaway to Rollin Chatter Box. We'll experiment with 2 options: 1. Donating to Lottery directly, making it EV+ 2. Raining Lottery Tickets to users in Rollin Chatter Box.
If you're there at the right time, you can still receive Free Lottery Tickets ever so often.

But it isn't free. All this talk about transaction fees and what they should be just shows how the modern financial systems makes everyone dumber. Somehow because it shows zero fees on a European bank transfer you imagine the bank buildings cost nothing and everyone there works for free? Everyone else pays for your free transaction.
No need to attack me on this. We barely have bank offices anymore, most of it goes online. It simply means transactions are completely automated which makes the cost per transaction very low. But if you insist on putting a fee on each transaction, you can look at what banks charge businesses. When I make a SEPA withdrawal from kraken.com, I pay 9 cents (0.00005346 BTC) fee. How much does it cost to open a European bank account? Or how much do you have to leave in it? What kind of identification and contact details do they request from you?
Here internet banking is the most common payment method for bills. The cost of a bank account varies per country and per bank. It used to be free (AKA the bank was happy to get you as a customer), some still offer free bank accounts, but most charge a few euro per month. That includes internet banking and a debit card for ATMs or to pay in shops. We don't have a minimum balance required on bank accounts. The bank does require a legal form of ID to get an account.

I don't know what you think it is. But it has never been what you describe. It is its own network and currency. Which is still cheaper than wire transfers and faster than clearing checks.
I often read this reasoning. Is it an American thing? Who uses wire transfers and checks? Within Europe I can pay anybody by bank without any additional fee.

$5000 every 10 minutes to store 1 MB data, meanwhile losing Bitcoin market share to altcoins and breaking Bitcoin for small transactions. Miners get millions of dollars each day, for something that could basically be done by a 5 year old PC if not for the high hash rate.

It's kinda annoying and a serious limitation that I can't see back open trade orders I made in the past. Once in a while it now buys something I don't need anymore. I could move my balance to another account, but even that doesn't close the open orders, so if I move back my Waves the orders can still process.
I was hoping this bug would be fixed soon, but it still exists. How can DEX be any serious exchange if I can't even see my open trade orders in the Waves Lite Client to respond to market changes?

Now if i am A and i want to transfer 100 BTC to E.
B, C, D would require 200 BTC + fees deposit?
A big transfer like that could still be handled on-chain, you just pay the normal fee.

I've read many "bits and pieces" about LN and SegWit, and seen some videos. Franky has a nice explanation too. But still, it's not entirely clear to me how it works. I see some benefits, but it also seems like a lot of extra (programming) work for something that is as simple as adding a few bytes to a block now. You can cash at AT ANY TIME without the permission of the HUB. The whole point is that you both hold valid TXNs that you can publish at any time should you wish to.
This is called 'Closing the Channel'. Couldn't this be abused by spam? Join all payment channels, then close all. Do this over and over again, and the 1 MB blocks are full again. I hope I'm wrong though. Is there anything in LN that prevents a spam-attack on channels?

I first saw Favour's Lending Service thread when he had already realized he was going to lose his money loaning more than the "sales value" of the accounts that took a loan. I was surprised a thread like that existed, that whole thread was almost an invitation to get scammed. I was expecting mainly people who don't value their account to join, and indeed, most of them don't care about red trust after taking the money. Usually I only read the Reputation-section/trust-fights with a big bag of popcorn, but since you asked for opinions, I'll give you mine. I got some time to spare, let me make a timeline first: - You took the loan on April 2, and had to pay back within 7 days. Interest on 0.05 BTC should have been 0.0105 BTC for 7 days.
12 days later you said you didn't pay back yet and "asked for more time" without getting a respons. This means you didn't get more time, but you took it anyway. You did not pay here. 5 days later favours says you didn't discuss anything. - On April 17 you got alerted by trust on your profile, once again saying you'll "repay in a few days". You did not pay here.
- On April 22 you made a "public apology" asking if it's okay to send the payment right away. favours accepted. Right after this you mentioned you agreed for 0.055 BTC, lower than what would be expected based on the thread, but I can imagine favours agreed to this only in the hopes to get at least something back. You did not pay here.
- After favours opened a Scam Accusation thread, on May 9 you asked for 24 hours to repay the loan. You did not pay here.
- On May 10 you argue the lender is happy so you should get more time. What made you think he is "happy" chasing his money for 5 weeks? Minutes later favours says "your time is up" and - as expected - he doesn't sound happy. You got yourself another 12 hours to repay. You did not pay here.
- On May 11 you ask for the address to send the bitcoins "right away". So all this time, when you were claiming you would pay back the loan, you didn't even know the address to send it to.
- On May 12, you paid back 0.0625 BTC
I might have missed some details in the timeline, but the overall picture is clear. This leaves me to conclude you only paid back because of the red trust, hoping it will disappear again. And although that's entirely up to Lauda, I think you deserve it. You have shown many times you don't keep your word. If you would have done this to me, I would never trust you again. Your personal vendetta against Lauda doesn't make your case look any better either. How would you feel if you have to beg someone for 5 weeks to get your own money back? This thread once again confirms you only paid back to get the red trust removed.

Favours, can you remove this line from the OP? It confused me while looking into this thread, as clearly he's an innocent here: Hello!I never took a loan from you but you have left me neg feedback.Can you explain what this is all about?
I'm really sorry. Yes, you have not taken a loan from me.

Bitcoin transactions are instant. It's the confirmation or inclusion in a block that takes time. Once you see a transaction paid to you (or to anyone else), and nothing fishy comes up after 5 to 10 seconds, as long as proper tx fees are paid, you're almost sure of it. If you receive Bitcoins from a source you don't trust, the statement above is not enough. A transaction with proper fee (but still a bit under the minimum required for near-instant confirmation at that moment) can easily take hours or days to confirm. That gives more than enough time to double spend it (by sending the same Bitcoins with a higher fee to another address). If you trust the source it's not really a problem, unless you need the Bitcoins urgently. But the whole point about Bitcoin is being able to make trustless transactions. Remember Satoshi recommends to wait for 6 confirmations before accepting a transaction as being confirmed.
