301  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: DCA: calculating orders size to cover current loss? on: October 10, 2021, 07:05:55 PM
Problem: I have a position in loss, position size $100, x5 leverage, -50% PNL,  Binance.

I want to do DCA, what should be my limit order size so I can cover the current -50% loss? Cheesy
What exactly is your goal? When you DCA when the price is lower than your current average purchase price, you will lower your average purchase price but you won’t be able to make your trade profitable without the price subsequently moving in your favor.

If you are down by 50%, you can buy nothing and you will break even once the price doubles from where it is. You can double the amount of bitcoin you hold by buying an amount of bitcoin that you already own at 50% below your current purchase price, which would lower your overall purchase price by 25%, and you would need the price to increase by 50% for you to break even.

One of the staff tried this site 3 years ago and warned us here
It seems that this website has been in the wild for years already and could have caught a lot of victims:
The address the scam site bitcoinqrcodemaker.com is currently producing on their QR codes currently does not have any transactions, although it is likely that it has used different addresses over time.

This is one example as to why it is important to search for scams prior to interacting with any bitcoin related website or service, especially "free" services.

When I started with the campaign, there was already a delay of about 5 weeks in paying us, then it went up to 6, then 7. Someone who had been with the campaign for a long time explained that in principle the payments were supposed to be weekly, but it usually took 2 weeks to pay, then 3, then 4.

It has to be said that when he pays with a backdated payment he gives a small bonus. The longer the delay the bigger the bonus.
Just to clarify that although I am no longer part of the campaign, I am somehow involved because I have been owed two weeks for more than two months. We are quite a few people in this situation, we left the sig campaign when the rates went down about two months ago, but he still owes us money.
Are you still owed money? If so, you would have standing to open a scam accusation against Lightlord that should result in negative trust given that he is apparently 10 weeks behind in payments. Any negative trust he receives should be removed once he catches up on payments.

Given the "bonus" being given for late payments, I would encourage those owed money to remain patient. Although at one point I would suggest that participants leave the campaign until/unless payments are caught up.

I have made a mistake, how can I change my forum name?

You might be better off just making a new account and moving on.
Unless your current name is somehow going to lead to you getting doxed, or otherwise endanger you, the above is the right answer.

If either of the above applies, PM Theymos and he will likely change your display name (assuming you can document the above).

Welcome to bitcointalk. I am sure you will enjoy your time here, learn a lot and eventually help others learn about bitcoin.

My advice is to not look for “alt” accounts. Don’t be a forum “cop”. Instead, read threads that interest you and respond with questions about what is being discussed and add anything that you can add to conversations.

Forum police are very high profile, but over the long term contribute very little to the community on a net basis.

Find sections that appeal to you, read many threads in these sections, and post when you can make a meaningful contribution. Ask meaningful and insightful questions.

All other links allowed in a user's profile can lead to outside the forum. I don't see why an avatar link shouldn't be able to lead to an outside link.
True. Well, it'll just make things worse then.
All other links on a user's profile at least have the ability to have a description of the link. If you have a website link in your profile, you must have a website title, and any link in your signature must either be a "raw" link or have some kind of text if using the url= bb code.

If your avatar contains a link, there would not be any text, only an image.

Also, the forum has been hacked via the avatar system before, so I doubt that theymos is exactly eager to be making changes to the avatar system.

Anyone can also add a short link to their personal text. It would not be clickable, however it would be nearly as good as a clickable avatar.
309  Other / Archival / Re: Hyperlink under the avatar on: October 02, 2021, 02:22:32 PM
It's a nice idea, but only if the link is not outside the forum. Otherwise, it'll just be another attempt to make the forum a better place which will be then abused by bounty hunters.

If links must lead to forum threads/links, bounty hunters will simply have the link set to a thread for the project they are supporting.

You paid $8000 for two forum accounts? I’m sorry but there is just no way a reasonable person would justify that price. Circa 2014, forum accounts would go for roughly the amount they could earn in one month via signature campaigns. This was when trading forum accounts was more accepted than it is today, so there was little risk of receiving red trust when your account is discovered to be sold.

Also, you are claiming that you used escrow but never accessed the account. Did you instruct the escrow agent to release the bitcoin to the seller? If so, why? If not, did you complain to the escrow agent? What was the outcome?

It looks like the body found was Gabby’s, and the initial cause of death was homicide (source). It’s too bad, I was hoping she would turn up alive somewhere, maybe wanting some alone time.

We should find out more information about how she died soon.

She seemed like a pretty nice girl. She might have had some rough spots in her life, but appears to had been an overall good person.

I would not ban him for this post, but would see it as multiple low effort posts. It is clear that what he wrote was not his original thought and that he got the specific information from a single source. This is not something that was inspired by a source. He made changes to the syntax of what was written.

I would advise against accepting an account with tokens as collateral.

If you can withdraw the tokens, send them to a lender (or escrow) so they can sell them if you default.

I have additional questions for each of the parties. Hopefully they can agree on the answers.
1) Aside from the alleged loan, has there been any kind of lending relationship between the two of you? If so, what were the terms? What amounts were involved?
2) Is this the first time any kind of work was performed for legendsrer? What were the terms? Was payment made as agreed? How much was involved in terms of price?
I also have questions for maidak:
1) When was the alleged loan due? How much interest was being charged?
2) How much were you charging for the work you are alleging you completed? Did you deliver the work in question? If so, can you make said work public?


^TLDR
No lending relationship but I did some work for him, he paid me upfront as well, he paid me around $10K USD. I don't know who contact with me via telegram, but he has introduced himself as legendster and made a good relationship with me via telegram. Throughout the whole of May, he builds up good relationships with me and in early June asked 3k USD for testing something, most probably he mentioned he wanna test somewhat liquidity on an exchange. Since he paid me over 10K USD and made me trust him, I gave him the funds. He kept in touch with me throughout June and in early July I noticed that he had deleted his telegram account and all conversation has been disappeared. I tried to contact him but failed & noticed that he logged in to the forum regularly and his password was also unchanged at that time, when I threatened to create a flag against him via DM in the forum, he knocked me again from an unknown telegram ID and requested me not to create the flag, he explained he faced some problem that's why he forced to stope communication, he backed me $500 in coinbase and asked few more days time to repay the due amount. Though I didn't feel comfortable but I can't report against him due to lack of evidence and my business.


Are you saying that a random person contacted you on telegram claiming to be legendster and that you conducted no verifications? I’m sorry but that is insane.

If this person paid you $10k for work completed, I would say that it looks like he got a 30% discount. I don’t see you ever recovering any of the money you are owed. Based on what you are saying, despite the poor security on the part of legendster, I don’t see how any reasonable person would consider him to be at fault.

Good luck.

1. I've never interacted with this cunt before. In or outside the forum. Unless he's hiding his other identity.

2. Never met him. Never hired him. For the last 2 years I have been focused with marketing (and telegram/discord modding) work so not hiring any freelance coders or whatever.

There was no loan.

There was no work.

There was no deal.
Thanks for answering those questions.

I would like to hear if maidak agrees that there was no additional lending or business relationship beyond what he is claiming.

Do you have any evidence of the transaction? Other than your word?

Unfortunately not, that's why I didn't make any report yet cause I don't have strong evidence, surely that guy (real owner/hacker/new owner) noticed that and made this drama.
I just texted him to scare him that he might return the money for fear of reputation but the ultimate result is appearing in this hacking drama 5 months later.

He claimed his property was hacked last April and now 5 months later he is reporting about that.
I can give only screenshots from coinbase account but you know those are useless without tx fees & he will never pay me back.
You should post whatever evidence of the loan you have.

As someone who was “here” in 2011, IMO you should have done better in documenting the loan, but the evidence should still be presented.
318  Economy / Reputation / Re: WTF Maidak? on: September 14, 2021, 07:01:03 PM
Maidak, or "Maidak" has not posted evidence he actually provided a loan, or is otherwise owed money from you. If anyone is going to take him seriously, he needs to do so.
Agreed. @Maidak, please post screenshots of your loan conversation with legendster.

He has deleted all chat history from Telegram. Unfortunately, I can't see anything there.
What was the txid you funded the loan with?
Sent via coinbase email to avoid excessive tx fees.

Suchmoon has been talking shit for years. She is very well known to be a......well I don't need to be too specific.


TBH, your story does not add up. This includes creating this thread in response to being asked to repay an alleged loan.

Maidak, or "Maidak" has not posted evidence he actually provided a loan, or is otherwise owed money from you. If anyone is going to take him seriously, he needs to do so. The fact that legendster's account was compromised was previously public information, so it is not outside the realm of possibility that he is just taking advantage of the situation.

Both parties are acting like children, and should stop, as entertaining as it is to watch.
