Though each Bitcoin transaction is recorded in a public domain,
I think a more meaningful word you are looking for here is a public Ledger, also what is referred to us the blockchain. Public domain sound a little too vague.

While that keeps users transactions private, it also lets them or sell anything without easily been traced back to them.
The transactions are not private, though. It's a public ledger, remember? Any can see the transactions in and out of the address through blockchain explorers. What the people may not know is who sent or received the transaction.

I agree, though perhaps coldice doesn't have the knowledge or tools to do a deep dive into the fakery that was employed here--I don't know what was going through coldice's mind when he decided to endorse the project, but I'd be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt so long as he knows better next time.  Maybe lovesmayfamilis could share his research methods with him so that he doesn't end up in a situation like this again (assuming, of course, that coldice doesn't know what to look for)?
He has been advertising many scam projects if you check his post history. Most over the threads were deleted/edited on the 21 of Feb 2021 but luckily, there are archives.



coldice seems to have been hacked sometime back and probably changed hands a couple of times. The most notable password change being on 2/19/2021 7:25:14 AM according to bpip - https://bpip.org/Profile?id=389324

Posting style changed after a long break and 2/21/2021. Most of the posts, got edited or deleted. Nobody should trust the current person behind the account.

I didn't realize There are these accusations until today. I have learnt my lesson. Have removed the scam projects.
What a way to mess up your Hero member account for a couple of bucks.

Don't tell me you didn't know have to make research about projects you are about to advertise until today. There are search buttons and search engines everywhere, how could you miss that?

In this era, even a 10-year-old knows how to search for something using Google. Come on.

You used 2 different valid IDs, but details are the same, right?

Like your name, your face on the documents, date of birth etc. Basically you are the same person (a citizen of the US) owning both accounts and one of the platforms clearly states in the Terms of service that they don't want to do any business with a US citizen.

They may not block your binance.com account right now, but with increased activity in the future, they could connect the dots. All I am saying is just be careful. It's no guarantee thing will stay them same for long.

I was really afraid when I saw Eriksen falling to the ground. They gave him CPR and I was really relieved to see him alive while they were taking him. I hope that Eriksen gets well very quickly.
It was really a very tense moment, especially when I saw one of the medical personnel giving him CPR. All my good weekend mood died instantly. I am however a bit relived to discover that his condition stabilized in hospital, according to reports.

Disappointed, the match had to be played with in a couple of hours later after all the trauma and shock the players and fans faced

I wish him a quick recovery.

The punishment for Plagiarism is usually a "permanent ban" which means there is almost no room for second chances. Like 99.9% of cases of permanent ban will never be unbanned.

There are very few have been cases where users were unbanned, but it was mostly members who heavily contributed positively to the forum in the past.

Then how about just turning it on for a week then some users will have the right to keep their moving avatars here from there, example is the licking boob of Vod. Some old users would still prefer their old avatars that represents them from the start up until now, and  think that's for sure.
I think once this forum is migrated into Epochtalk. All user settings remain the same, otherwise, what would be the purpose of the database that admin keeps backing up?  Wink

Those who have animated avatars here will still have them over there unless Theymos just decided to turn off everything concerning animated avatars.

Did you back up your account before the incident?

If yes, then you can still regain access to your funds using this link: https://login.blockchain.com/#/recover. You will need to fill in the 12-word phrase. Please note that this process will create a new wallet ID

In order to answer your question, I need you to first answer my question. Beginning with the subject title.

Do you have any idea how much of the environment and ecosystem has been destroyed and degraded for centuries, all in the name of mining the precious metals?

Why is it an issue now with Bitcoin mining using just a small part of energy, most of which I believe is not even from fossil fuels?
2731  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Ticket 280067 freewallet scamming me on: June 11, 2021, 09:31:54 PM
Of all wallet available. I still don't understand why you chose to use freewallet. Besides it being a custodial wallet, it's one of the worst wallets you will ever use in the crypto world. Lots of scam accusations and complaints about it everywhere.
Take a look at the reviews on trustpilot - https://www.trustpilot.com/review/freewallet.org
2732  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM ALERT] FORBIT.LTD on: June 11, 2021, 08:46:33 PM
This is a scam and it requires common sense.

1. Would you win a prize from a competition or draw you never participated in?
2. In this current situation, Is there anyone who just wakes up one day and hands over BTC worth $26,000 to a random discord user?
If he/she is that generous, then why do they need to send them BTC to "verify the account"?
2733  Economy / Exchanges / Re: LiveCoin.net >Buy/Sell/Exchange>New pairs:BVK/BTC,APOD/BTC,KTETH/BTC on: June 11, 2021, 08:33:51 PM
What's with all this brand-new accounts and low ranking inactive accounts waking up to just come and post here that they received a refund of 50% of the funds  Huh

Does Livecoin or anyone behind these sock puppet accounts think we are too stupid to believe such nonsense here?
2734  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Xapo Wallet on: June 11, 2021, 04:49:10 PM
Almost opened an account with them back then in 2016 when I was a newbie after a suggestion from a friend, but then I stumbled upon coinbase. I think it was a popular service back then before they started to fuck things up.

Recently while watching some crypto documentary on Alijazeera, one of the people who was interviewed was Wences Casares, their CEO and Cofounder who claimed that they have a custodial service which is keeping Bitcoins worth billions of dollars for their clients in a secret decommissioned military banker.

Now, if this is how a service claiming to "securely" keep such amounts of money treats other customers, then it's really something very sad.
2735  Economy / Exchanges / Re: P2P Exchanges and vendor country location on: June 10, 2021, 08:58:43 PM
Presumably, provided the vendor has plenty of good feedback, then their country location isn't something of particular concern?
Yeah, there's no big concern so long as the payment method is supported for both countries.

I have personally traded with different traders from across the boards with no problem. Using Bank transfers too, though not so much like other payment methods.
2736  Economy / Reputation / Re: Action against: @AssistentYoshieAndFriends. on: June 10, 2021, 03:28:22 PM
Looks like one of those butthurt scammers or multi accounting bounty cheats that you and lovesmayfamilis may have exposed and tagged in the past are trying to take up some revenge by impersonating you to destroy your reputation. Little do they know that they are just wasting their time.

It's great you put out a warning here.
2737  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Peer-to-peer exchanges - first/last name question on: June 10, 2021, 03:07:44 PM
d) LocalBitcoins

It would appear that only d) localbitcoins.com asks the following:

1) Enter your first names as they appear on your identity documentation.
2) Enter your last name as it appears on your identity documentation.


If one of the main draws to using such exchanges is to prevent personal data being stolen in the event of a hack, I was wondering what thoughts are on this? Would you just stick to the first three exchanges due to this?  Huh

For your information, LocalBitcoins is no longer part of the non-KYC p2p exchanges. It should not even be in the list because you will have to first verify your account before you use their service

I would stick with the other 3 if I totally didn't want to get asked for KYC verification.
2738  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What is the deal with Coinxtraders? Surely it's a scam, right? on: June 10, 2021, 02:19:00 PM
Normally I 100% agree. But in this case specifically its so damn convincing. I've been scouring the internet looking for someone calling them out and I find nothing surely someone would have said something about it by now. All I can find are positive reviews dating back to 2016.
How can you get convinced by someone who gives you 0.5 BTC for free out of nowhere but then asks you to send him 0.22 BTC in order to be able to own the 0.5.
That alone should be enough to alert you that it's a scam. Positive reviews can easily be faked. Don't trust them.
2739  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Pundi X - Any store can buy, sell and accept Cryptocurrency on: June 08, 2021, 09:52:43 PM
As expected, especially if they still have no big development, but it's still good though as long as they are listed in big exchange as the hype is always there during the bull run. If the bull run is indeed over, we can wait for next time, but hopefully, this coin would still survive so it will have a bigger run in the next bull run. Most coins actually that have a good volume especially listed in Binance have a big chance of betting hype.
Pundi X has a chance of being a very big coin, but the team messed the chance up. Even a market pump or having some of its pairs still listed on Binance won't resurrect this coin. It will always continue to go on the downward path in the long run.

I was one of the early supporters. I am glad I abandoned ship before it sunk. I wonder how many coin swaps they are going to make in its entire lifetime.
2740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: June 06, 2021, 09:56:03 PM
Chelsea and Villareal will be going to Pot 1 UCL in the next session together with; Atletico Madrid (1st rank LaLiga), Manchester City (1st rank Premier), Inter Milan ((1st rank Serie A), Bayern Munchen (1st rank Bundesliga), Lille (1st rank Ligue 1), dan Sporting Lisbon (1st rank Primeira)

Pot 2; Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus, Paris Saint Germain, Manchester United, Liverpool, Sevilla, Borussia Dortmund.

Pot 3; Porto, Ajax, RB Leipzig, Atalanta, Beşiktaş, Dynamo Kyiv, Club Brugge, 4 winners playoff Champions Path 2 and winner playoff League Path

pot 4; AC Milan and VfL WOlfsburg

* I just seeing which hell pot - Pot 2 - the club which tight competition

https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/

Nonetheless, they are in Pot 2 because the Pot 1 chaps overpowered them last season, didn't they?

I don't see any tight competition, Pot 2 teams are not going to play against each other, at least not in the group stages. Group draws have to be first made. I am not sure when this will take place
