+1. Probably a lazy scam attempt. He didn't even give his wallet address for us to check that he really owns a lot of BTC and why would someone rational sell his BTC for half the present price.

But if he's willing to do escrow or willing to send first then people might do a transaction with him. His account Antonopoulus is basically made solely for this deal and his email which is from outlook having the username aantonopoulos3.

I have an idea on how to do this. How about he just look at the transaction history of the address given by unpix and just pick a random user out of that list of depositors. Since he posted this thread in reddit and in this forum, then he can easily inform the depositors about the rules. But the picture of QR code already has a depositor/s.

Maybe you move the 0.05BTC to another wallet. So even if they get the private key of the given wallet, there will be a raffle first. Just a suggestion though.

Yep there's proof that address has 0.05BTC inside it. But we have no idea if that QR code is really the private key of that address. It can be another wallet's private key or some random QR code. Also, can you please sign a message for that address to prove that it's yours? (Actually it doesn't matter if it yours, The code is the one that is important here )

Some people will probably think this is a scam attempt.

Yup, the new rules of YoBit is like the best decision that they've made. The local board is full of topics that has the same reply over and over and a single questions is being answered by the whole population. Take a look at the Philippines local board now and compare it to what it was before. Now it's almost a ghost town. They are only here for YoBit.

Also some people here are posting about YoBit spammers. They are doing a good job removing the spammers of YoBit. Half of YoBit members before only post 1-2 lines of not-so-insightful replies. They make 20 posts and move on to another account. Pretty sure it made them sad when the new rules were implemented. Now YoBit has a moderate to very little number of spammers.

I fixed it for you:


Pretty sure you're just trolling. But this makes some sense though. You have to know the basics about bitcoin, atleast know the difference between a mnemonic code and an address.

If you know nothing about sending bitcoins, then you accidentally send it to the wrong address, then you're never getting your bitcoin back because there's no cancel button.

Just use a wallet website that allows you to enable 2FA security. Your wallet will not be hacked unless the hacker has an access to your phone or to the QR code that you scanned. Printing a paper wallet doesn't assure that you'll not get hacked in the future.

I am using coins.ph now and there's no hassle at all for I am using a 2FA security. They also enabled 2FA using email but now you can only do 2FA using your phone.

If you're new, I recommend that you do faucet. TBH, it's a waste of time if you just click and solve captchas to earn. What you should do is make your own website or even just a webpage and put your referral links there. Explore and collect a list of paying faucets. Probably do Xapo and FaucetBox faucets.

You can make a thread similar to these threads: thread1,thread2. You have to update and bump your thread everyday. And also don't stop looking for more faucet sites. Promote your website as well in different crypto-related forums.

I also noticed that minidump. It was ~Php21,000 when converted to my country's currency and now it's just ~Php20,000. Lost ~Php1000 in a week. Relax, everyone. It will surely go up once again.

I've never heard someone said this before, "I feel you are not a scammer." Seems shady to me. After all these negative comments about his collateral, you're trusting him. He said on May 19, 2016, 03:39:25 PM that he'll send you the details in 6 minutes. So that means you should've received it on May 19, ~03:45PM. 11 hours has passed. How was your deal? When having a deal with a Newbie, it is advised that you do it in this thread not in PM so that people can see the agreement of you two.

Just like you said, this is an auction. If you want to get the account, you have to place a bid higher than the previous bid.

It depends on the price of bitcoin. If the price is considerably low, then I prefer buying bitcoins because I know that someday the price of bitcoin will go up once again. That will give me profit. If the price is high, then I prefer selling bitcoins because I've waited for that time. Basically just leave some USD and BTC on your wallet (if your wallet has that feature) so that you're ready to buy or sell if there's a spike. Check the price regularly because you don't want to miss a spike.

Just use an escrow if the both of you don't want to send first. Another way is the buyer sends half the price and then you send him the account. And then if he confirms that the account is good, then he will then send the other half of the price.

Yup, newbie's maximum earning per day will be just some post of a higher rank members. But I think the reason why the rate for newbies account are considerably low is because if they did a higher rate for newbies, some people will just make a lot of dummy accounts and enroll on that signature campaign. Probably will just post spams.

My worst mistake is probably when I trusted different HYIPs. I never get the chance to earn my money back. All of them ran away. I also lost a lot of money from bitcoin doubler websites. They paid 3 times and then after someone invested 5BTC and 1BTC, they just ran away. After learning my mistake from doubler sites, I have come up to an idea of doing referrals on those websites to earn money though.

If you're a newbie, you will probably fall victim onto one of those ponzi scams as they are being promoted in most facebook bitcoin groups. The thing is, those people who are promoting those websites only want to make money out of referrals.

The bitcoin price has been very stable at ~450$ for the past month. I don't see any reason why would there be a big crash coming. There might be some minidumps but they don't count as a big crash. With the bitcoin halving coming, the price would probably first go up and eventually go down again until it reach the potential bottom price.

I didn't expect a reply like this as I thought I have connected my thoughts carefully.

To reply your 1st post: I assumed that he already knows how bitcoin works because he was able to find this forum for the first place.

Signature ad campaign is a part of this forum. Of course if he violated a rule of this forum, then he will as well get kicked from the signature ad campaign. So learning the rules of this forum also helps you maintain your membership in a signature campaign.

To relate your 1st reply to your 2nd reply, I said that he has to learn this forum's rules and regulation so that he can join a signature campaign, right? What I meant by that is that he has to be ready before joining a signature campaign because if he knows nothing about the rules, he probably will violate one or two of them. If he violates a rule, then he will get banned from the signature ad campaign.

There are two possibilities here: (a). OP doesn't want to sell the account in that price and is still waiting for a higher bid. (b). OP didn't notice your bid. Either way, you to wait for OP's reply. There's even no reply to the first customer (ravens) who says he wants to buy it now.

There are no signature ad campaign for Newbies (except for 777coin which is kind of inactive right now) because if there's any, then spammers will just create a lot of accounts and enroll on that signature campaign. People also don't trust Newbies here because most of them are likely to do scam/spam in this forum.

Probably this user was referred to this forum by a user who already earns from signature ad campaign. Guess what? You have to wait months in order to get a good amount of money from signature ad campaigns. Most newbies here already know about signature ad campaigns because they are only here to earn money from that (that's their main purpose at least).

I suggest that you either wait for months for your account to rank up or you go study and learn all the rules of this forum then buy a higher rank account. Probably learn to construct an understandable english so that people won't claim that they can't understand your posts. If you haven't tried the other stuffs on bitcoin such as gambling, trading, investing, etc, then you should try them while you are waiting for your account to rank up.

Just wanted to make this short and simple. Just quote this if you want further explanation.

Gambling is a game for those people who accept the fact that there's a possibility of losing a lot. They gamble in order to try their luck.

Gambling is an investment for those people who use autobet feature. They run a custom script. Some people actually do make some money out of this. They needed to buy or make a really good custom script. But according to most players, running a custom script in the long run leads you to bankruptcy.

Gambling is a business to casino owners (of course). The service they offer and the other stuffs that you buy inside a casino is what makes them earn more.

After all that has happened to me when it comes to investing, I would not trust any investment sites again. I've joined a lot of HYIPs and most of them ended up as a scam. I chose to invest in HYIPs instead of cloud mining because you can get your ROI in a shorter period of time. The thing is, they didn't even reach that ROI time. After getting some investors, they just runaway.

Cloud mining promises ROI after months or maybe even years. That's plenty of time for them to gather investors. Better invest in other bitcoin stuffs, like buying something and make money out of it than trusting some ponzi website out there.

There's a chance for you to actually get profit from HYIPs. It's when you invested a decent amount at an early date. If their website runs more than the time for you to get your ROI, then you'll earn from it. If the website is running for months already, and some people are starting to report pending withdrawals, then don't invest anymore.
