2541  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are some interesting ways you've introduced bitcoin to your friends? on: July 06, 2021, 02:09:01 PM
Case #1 [2016-17]
I remember dragging an old friend of mine into a park, then we discussed in regards to how he could and should store it and some of the earning methods. Guess what happened next? I never saw him after that Cheesy
- I admit, it probably had to do with the way I introduced it [perhaps I sounded like I was doing something illegally].

Case #2 [late 2019]
One of my friends wanted to start a business together, so I came up with the idea of importing mining rigs [half of them for ourselves and sell the rest for some profits]... We planned everything for a couple of months [the introduction part was included in here] and almost went with my idea but at the last minute, we ditched it and went with another business idea that eventually led to a significant financial loss [FYI, what happened it was out of our hands].

Thankfully, I no longer have to approach them because they're approaching me instead [less pressure for me, and technically I'm just pushing them in the right direction as opposed to introducing it completely from scratch].
2542  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Send money to India with Crypto. Fast and Simple. on: July 06, 2021, 09:24:05 AM
The fee part on your "Q&A" page is a bit unclear. How much you'll be charging [%] for offering your services?

and cash in person can take 1 or 2 hours.
I've checked your "location" page but there's no evidence that you have stores in each one of the mentioned locations [it'd be nice if you could provide some].

You'll probably get more responses or clients if you move this thread to the "Marketplace (India)" board instead ["move topic" button is in the bottom left corner of the page].
2543  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: hot wallet \ buying bitcoin on: July 06, 2021, 07:32:05 AM
There is a way to check if my wallet address realy work befor buying bitcoin?
If by working, you meant if it's a valid address, then yes; there are a few ways and the easiest one is to copy your address into any of the explorers; If it's valid, it'll show up...

Add your address to the following link:
Code:
https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/

Take note of the "above two posts".
2544  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Feedback on the Blackjack Trainer by Bojoko on: July 06, 2021, 06:35:14 AM
We'd love to hear if any of you have tried our Blackjack trainer already and what you thought.
I'm a newbie when it comes to most of these gambling card games and I've tried learning it on other platforms before but yours is much better than the other trainers out there...
- Initially, I had a hard time understanding the "basic strategy chart" while using the trainer itself [that's no longer the case, thanks to the complete guide section of your website], so I'd suggest adding a short explanation for each of the recommended moves [e.g. a hover effect with brief explanations would be nice].
2545  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: selling btc coinbase rate on: July 06, 2021, 04:28:58 AM
I am looking for a serious buyer who is willing to buy $1000 worth of btc
And yet you "commented [for "$10-15"]" on a thread that by your own standards ["$1000 worth of btc"] it isn't considered as a serious buyer Roll Eyes

How are you supposed to get an interested party if you haven't specified the type of payment you would like to receive from them?
I think he/she intentionally left that part out [good conversation starter], in order to shift the conversation to telegram instead.
2546  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Beatzcoins exchange on: July 05, 2021, 05:21:12 PM
Scammers Profile Link: https://beatzcoins.com/
Always remember to provide an "archived version" as well.

It's scam. For some time, they would create clone sites of Cex.io with the very same design over and over again. Other times they would claim one has won some BTC in one of those sites, but would require that person to first deposit the BTC in order to verify the account.
It seems that one of their new tricks is to provide contracts with various fake returns [e.g. x1.1, x1.25, and x1.5 (archived version)].

well has anyone reported this scam site?
Just did:

2547  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: New Online Bitcoin Treasure Hunt - Live on: July 05, 2021, 02:41:30 PM
The following part caught my attention while I was reading through the description part of the video in question:

Quote
"I am the only human alive that knows the bitcoin private key hidden in this video series. I will take the secret to my grave if I have to."         J.R. Forsyth


From what I've read so far, they refunded [coin value] those that approached them, but despite that, I'm not sure if I could trust his ability for keeping that private key safe [perhaps it's just me but good luck to anyone that would try solving it].
2548  Other / Archival / Re: @amazonsess_sell telegram name is same like mine Remi Guile on: July 05, 2021, 01:26:20 PM
I have mentioned my real telegram ID everywhere and posted warnings about imposters in my signature. I dont know what else to do.
If you already did what @hugeblack suggested [report part], then I think there's nothing left for you to try [unfortunately].
- I feel bad for the victims but they should pay more attention.

Guess who sent me a PM a few hours after I commented in this thread? @nogevl [AKA Trespasser] did and asked for my Telegram username Roll Eyes
- There might be some connection.
2549  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did Twitch secretly end payments with Bitcoin? on: July 05, 2021, 08:45:35 AM
In the past, I have often paid for a subscription to streamers on Twitch (part of Amazon) with Bitcoin. I wanted to do this again today, but I can no longer find the payment option for Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general. I also could not find any announcement about ending this option.
I couldn't find anything either but have you checked the "See More Methods" option?

See More Methods will allow you to also choose from a wide range of Xsolla options, including Apple Pay, bank transfer, paysafecard, and digital cryptocurrency depending on your region.

Does anyone know if Twitch has permanently removed the Bitcoin payment option or if this is just temporary?
I wouldn't be surprised if they've silently done [add/remove] it again.

There's this 2019 article that says it's been removed -
They brought it back in June Cheesy Amazon-Owned Twitch Quietly Brings Back Bitcoin Payments
- And this one from last year: Twitch Doubles Down on Crypto, Gives Subscribers 10% Discount
2550  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there a one stop crypto news source? on: July 05, 2021, 04:37:15 AM
An app or a widget would be nice.
You can easily achieve such a thing with an RSS feed reader of some sort [e.g. Feedly].
- By doing the above thing, you have the ability to only add the sources that you truly trust.

If you still prefer to use a content aggregator website, you can try the following in addition to what @Lee_Mire suggested:

2551  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2021-07-02 coinrivet - Football team AZ Alkmaar to hold BTC on balance sheet on: July 05, 2021, 01:20:50 AM
The sponsorship deal will be finalized entirely in Bitcoin, and the Dutch club has promised that it will keep the amount in BTC on its balance sheet.
~Snipped~
It is unclear whether the player will be paid in Bitcoin or not as I could not find any confirmation.
Bold move by AZ Alkmaar and since they mentioned "keeping it on the balance sheet during their partnership" which lasts until 2024, then it's safe to say that players will not receive their wages in BTCitcoin.
- Even if they want to, I don't think their current contracts would allow that to happen [perhaps it'll be possible for their new signings].
2552  Local / Pamilihan / Re: PSE plans for crypto exchange on: July 04, 2021, 05:16:19 PM
Anu opinion nyu dito sa balitang ito mga kabayan? Like its pros and cons?
Maganda sana yung balita but based dun sa mga nasabi ni Monzon, feeling ko magiging Coinbase 2.0 ito [a custodial exchange with way too many ridiculous rules].
2553  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-07-03] Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Records Largest Drop in History on: July 04, 2021, 03:17:59 PM
Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing similar or higher drops for the next difficulty adjustment as long as everything happens on the last day...
- Despite how the title of this thread looks like, the actual results aren't that bad and it also brings a few positive things to active and soon to be active miners.
2554  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Blockstream Jade - fully open source hardware wallet on: July 04, 2021, 01:10:20 PM
Among other things it's interesting to see Jade size comparison with other hardware wallets like Coldcard, Trezor One and Ledger.
That's one of the few things I like about Jade but having said that, I wouldn't be ordering one [regardless of it being out of stock or not] if everything stays exactly the same [I do know there'll be more software updates and support].
- One side of the box had a "DontTrustVerify" tag but looks like I have to trust something.
2555  Other / Meta / Re: Stake your Bitcoin address here on: July 04, 2021, 11:36:28 AM
The multi-sig address I previously posted starting at 3 in 2016 came from a custodial wallet so I was not able to sign it.
But since there have been activities on that address up until March of this year, is it safe to assume that you still have access to that "custodial wallet" and as proof [whenever needed], you could transfer its funds to your newly staked address?

And the one that starts with 1 from blockchain.info or .com as far as I remember, I haven't used it for a long time and I've lost access because I haven't held its private key since my old laptop was damaged and I was unable to recover.
Just to be clear, are you referring "only" to the exported private key on the hard drive of the damaged laptop or the ability to access your blockchain.com [formerly known as .info] wallet?
2556  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Magdagdag ng bagong coins si Coins.PH!!! on: July 04, 2021, 09:31:53 AM
I’m not sure pero based sa mga comments it’s USDC, KNC, and LINK.
USDC is a good choice, but I doubt on the two options but again this is still a good thing.
Almost tama yung unang hula ko [except for KNC] and based dun sa mga dinagdag nilang outlines, mukhang KNC tlga yung nasa gitna [not also a fan of the other two]...
- I'm surprised na hindi kasama ang USDT sa choices nila.
2557  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Thai SEC files criminal complaint against Binance on: July 04, 2021, 07:29:09 AM
The watchdog said in a statement on April 5 that it had warned Binance and requested a written response, but that the exchange had not responded to the letter within the specified time.
As per their statement, it is their policy not to respond to regulation issues but they definitely work it out with them.
In other words, they could've avoided this but for some weird reason, they chose the harder route instead [doesn't make sense]!

It makes me wonder why all of these countries suddenly have a problem with Binance.
Same here, I don't think it's a coincidence...
Not sure about the exact time Binance started having any type of activities in there, but perhaps they just wanted to milk [regardless of the mentioned fine amount] one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges that have been around in the past few years.
2558  Other / Meta / Re: Question for admins: Add one more post in my thread maybe? on: July 03, 2021, 08:30:57 AM
Would it be possible for the admins to add a new post in my thread and give it to me just below the #2 post, and kind of push all other posts one step lower? This sounds stupid even while I am writing it. Roll Eyes   
Yes, it's possible; IIRC, Lauda had a similar problem on "this" thread, and one of the admins inserted a few posts on his/her behalf...

Post #5 = December 03, 2016, 09:47:44 AM
Post #6 = November 18, 2017, 10:23:09 PM [was added after ten and a half months]
Post #7 = December 03, 2016, 10:05:45 AM

going to add one more item - winner can pick one astronaut from the colors below.
This is the first time I'm seeing one of these... Did you make them yourself?

2560  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Soros Fund Management CIO Hints at Bitcoin Ownership on: July 02, 2021, 03:56:20 PM
I have a really bad feeling about this [not for myself] and I'm already picturing most of the "new" hodlers panicking after seeing SMF suddenly dumping a huge amount [assuming they'd buy a significant amount at some point].

He didn't say YES when asked if he owns Bitcoin but he knew substantial information about Bitcoin,
You might want to refer to her as "she" [Soros’s CIO] Wink
