3001  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Another fake stellar airdrop on: September 29, 2020, 11:42:43 PM
Just curious how they linked to your email address and send you an email, is this was sent to your spam inbox, if so, I usually ignore the message that sent to my inbox. Because I always think that they are scam and it seems not to be trusted especially if comes from strangers.

Thank you for sharing, I also reported the scam website link.

This is the reason why I don't use my personal email account on any airdrop activity, use a dummy instead that intended for the airdrop only and the email in your crypto wallet should always be separated. Scammers nowadays are willing to do everything just to fall lazy and naive people.
3002  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If all BTC Gets Bought Up? on: September 29, 2020, 10:43:43 PM
I am happy if many whales buy Bitcoin, because it will definitely make the Bitcoin price go up.
If you're a Bitcoin holder you might be happy for that news and it may have a bullish trend once the demand will increase. But if you are accumulating or your late investor, no you can't. Because you think that Bitcoin is very expensive if the demand will be increased. I don't think if there is a whale accumulator of Bitcoin that can do that, it is hard to play a game in the Bitcoin market if the demand will get higher, for sure the price will increase too and I don't know the whale can still manage on it.

I don't know if there's 1 person who will get bought up all Bitcoin, even in this Cointelegraph article asking "If Jeff Bezos Bought All Bitcoin in Circulation", it will probably stack on the miners.
3003  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: New to signature campaigns, questions. on: September 29, 2020, 10:13:00 PM
Signature campaigns are a good source of side income, not as a main source of earning of course because, anytime they can end.
This is it, it might a good source of income but never depend on it as your main source of income. This forum has good benefits to the users who established their accounts very well, through their effort giving good discussions makes them easy to rank up and I think that was the OP is. Even me, due to the interest to learn about blockchain stuff, I'm still here in the forum even though I have a job outside, as matter of fact, they aren't conflicting with my schedule. I have time to give and share ideas in the forum and including signature campaign is my extra earning aside from my main job.

If you're a newbie and a member that didn't even earn merit to rank up, forgot getting profit on the forum. Instead, focus on learning in the forum and blockchain stuff. Just focus and try your best in the forum, being a well-established member will easily have spotted in any campaign that you wanted to join.

Lol, story. Unfortunately, the one who tried to scam you were got nothing but the good thing is, it helps you to know that you're eligible for claiming UNI which is a pretty good amount and which is free.

I've done this before, it's good playing someone who tries you to scam. It is similar to what I've experienced, asking me to withdraw his 3.6 Bitcoin on exchange and the rest of 3 will be mine. If you were smarter, you may think why someone willing to give you that amount, for sure it has an exchange that has a good benefit to them.

Congrats you didn't fool by him, it's a well-played.
3005  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where do you store your seed? on: September 29, 2020, 04:03:48 PM
Someone mentioned they leave the other part of the seed in their vacation home.  Well... who lives in the vacation home when you are not there?  What if there is a natural disaster or theft?  Now what if the thief just takes a whole bunch of stuff and the seed paper is there.
We can use our common sense upon storing our Bitcoin seed to avoid all costs that you have been mentioned above. If you don't feel comfortable with the piece of paper where you wrote your key because of possible natural disasters, why did you not make a piece of thin metal that you can engrave your seed and a key to preventing natural disasters? There are certain ways upon keeping your seed and that's our responsibility to keep them safe.

About the theft, if you can afford to buy a huge Bitcoin amount for sure you can also afford to have security at home. We are now in modern technology at every household can afford to have CCTV cameras, I don't theft will not easily spot if you have this at home. You can buy also a large vault for all your valuable things including fiat for the theft can't easy get them. Next is set alarm system at home, anytime you will be warned if there is a theft.

In any problem, there's a solution if we will use our common sense.
3006  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it worthwhile to trade the cryptocurrency on IQ Option? on: September 29, 2020, 03:27:20 PM
I never use this exchange but commonly I saw their ads that always pop up on my Facebook page, they actively have ads there.

If you meant that worthwhile to trade, I probably say yes, but trusting them to let my fund sleep on their wallet. I will not do that, and I will not trust any exchange to keep my fund for the purpose of holding the long term. I suggest that you can try to use them at least with the start of a small amount if you want to know their worthwhile.

Here is my insight into them.
  • According to the Who.is, they'd founded year 2013 and operating business for how many years
  • They are CySEC regulated
  • Have a Free Demo account
It's up to you if will trust them, just do your own research furthermore, because I was saw them in the TrustPilot review, they gained bad rep there.
3007  Economy / Reputation / Re: Livecoin Signature is back on: September 29, 2020, 02:57:57 PM
Bumping this thread since Livecoin Signature campaign live once again. Here is the announcement, recruiting 25 participants again. It's just a reminder that there was some issue regarding Livecoin exchange. Here is the scam accusation and Livecoin hasn't solved it. I am assuming forum moderators will be quite busy to prevent spam after run this campaign  Wink
Unlike usual, they have to send applicants via PM, can this be considered good or just want to avoid the pressure before? If there are still unresolved accusations, of course, those who participate in this campaign will be very worried because they will be impacted by the moderators for promoting a scam project.
If there is someone who will promote them or wore the signature while the had still unresolved scam accusation, those accounts who will be promoted to this livecoin will might in risk by having a negative red tag under their profile name. Scam projects aren't moderated but for sure you will receive negative feedback from DT members or get flagged and that is a good indication that no one will fall to this project or even promoting them.

I had strong doubt 2 days past that they will come back to this post, one of the high rank user shilling their announcement and I was right on my doubt, they are here now.
3008  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: FORTUNEJACK SCAM on: September 29, 2020, 02:40:36 PM
It's a baseless accusation if you don't have enough solid proof on this, as they said above, you need to compile documents to prove regarding this. Screenshot of the conversation and the date should be visible and please follow the right step on how to create a scam accusation thread.

You might also contact FortuneJack for further verification regarding your issue, they might help you to solve this issue.

I saw you already posted this the same content their ANN thread, hopefully, it will sort it out.
3009  Economy / Speculation / Re: Predict the bitcoin price range as we enter the New Year on: September 27, 2020, 11:21:42 PM
It looks like I'm very optimistic here and I'm only the one who voted $16,001 - $18,000 range price.

I don't see any reason Bitcoin will dump at the end of this year, besides, I still believed that there is a good result after the halving. It's been a month halving successfully launched but I didn't convince the effect on it in the market, as the previous result, it took more than 6 months before the market shows a bullish trend.

Regarding the US election, I didn't see that this will may affect the Bitcoin price.
3010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin for Christmas on: September 27, 2020, 04:27:46 PM
There are too many things to consider before you will decide which gift that related to Bitcoin to give this Yuletide season. That isn't a bad idea and it might be remarkable to them and keep this as a treasure for them. Buts it should be techy on blockchain technology or which means have an idea what is Bitcoin and how does it work.  

Your gift it could be,
  • Bitcoin physical coin by Casascius.com, a souvenir.
  • A Bitcoin wallet with Bitcoin inside(worth of hundred bucks)I prefer to use Hardware wallets (Trezor or Ledger), a paper wallet is very crucial to redeem.
  • Sports Apparel wear that has a logo design of Bitcoin.
  • Most affordable that I wanted to give this Yuletide season, is Bitcoin tented gold KeyChain.
3011  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Kucoin hacked on: September 27, 2020, 02:59:28 PM
~$150M is too much money even for them,though, and am not sure if what they have in their insurance fund will be enough to cover it.
Fortunately, they just announced that anyone who has an account in kucoin that was affected by the hacked is covered completely by their insurance fund. Just don't know if the total hacked funds were covered enough as well.
As the KuCoin Global CEO Johnny Lyu said on his livestream said that.
Q4: What’s the percentage of the assets being affected?

Johnny: The funds affected contain a small part of our total assets holdings.

It's quite big on us but for them, he said that it is small part and I don't see if there is an exit scam for this hack incident. Besides, they are willing to pay thousands of bucks ($100,000) to point out who is the hacker that can trace and provide valid information to them.

Until now that case was still under investigations and the withdrawal and deposit function was disabled and Kucoin CEO said it's approximately take 1 week before the operation will back again.
3012  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Livecoin has been in 10-15 minute maintenance for over 12 hours on: September 27, 2020, 02:29:38 PM
Do you have a link to this announcement?
Is that livecoin.net exchange? Are they still alive and still operating?

I search all social media that Livecoin had but it seems there's no announcement, Twitter, Facebook and Telegram are quite inactive for them, even the Livecoins news list last announcement is last week September 22. Looks like their ANN thread is inactive too here in Bitcointalk.

The whole thing I know they are no longer operate after multiple accusations and also social media stop giving announcements since last year.
3013  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Not your keys, not your Crypto – Kucoin Hacked! $150m Stolen. on: September 26, 2020, 04:39:50 PM
Another scammed exchange that makes the cryptocurrency becomes fraud to the eyes of people who dont know crypto-related stuff.

I followed their Twitter social media accounts and it seems they had frozen USDT and suspended some altcoins pairs to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Probably it's better if they will suspend all transactions, just like the withdrawal and deposit should be initiated immediately so that they can focus upon tracing the hacking incident.

One of the closest competitors to Binance exchange is Kucoin, but now, I don't think if there are someone traders who will still trust on them, it might always doubtful. Fortunately, Kucoin user's fund is safe and probably they aren't worried now.

3014  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: For your ready reference on cryptocurrency exchange! on: September 26, 2020, 03:57:19 PM
I think you need to improve your compilation thread of the list in all exchange, the images look good if it is resized in the same size. See the example below,
Code:
[img width=100]https://i.imgur.com/XjdKFpd.jpg[/img]
I added "width=100" or it will depends on the size of the image.

It should be readable than the larger images that bother on the eyes of the reader.

You can also check these threads as you reference that I posted below, since some of them are outdated, probably you can make your own. It might be good if you compilation is well organized, you need to separate exchanges like, P2P, DEX and CEX, so that it is easy for them to find which exchange it is belong.

3015  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH 2.0 And High Transaction Fees.. on: September 25, 2020, 03:40:07 PM
The thing is, if the high fee still unresolved after 2.0 and people slowly leaving eth, the high fee problem will solve itself and the fee will become normal again since there's no traffic. What we expect from ETH is to somehow come up with a solution to solve the scalability problem for mass adoption but whether ETH 2.0 gonna solve it or not one thing is for sure that ETH not gonna die.
How sure about this you are? Eth will not die just because of high fees.

Yeah, the most anticipated event on Eth that most investors awaited is the version 2.0. But everyone was shocked when they saw that the transaction fee was so high just like Bitcoin. My theory is this, it goes the same network with Bitcoin. Due to the continuous expansion of Defi projects, the Ethereum network has become congested which makes fee higher that can able to pay miners in order the transaction gets confirmed.

Different arguments I had heard about the Ethereum fees, IMO, a fact that Ethereum and the smart contract that most likely Defi's project used are the technological foundations that people used for the payments and money transfer in a term of Decentralized Finance.
3016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The best platforms for writers to generate Altcoins on: September 25, 2020, 03:15:00 PM
The same altcoin earning platforms but it has different ways of earning altcoins. Read.cash accept only BCH and while Publish 0x supports a variety of altcoins such as  BTC, BCH, BNB, BAT, and LTC. These sites was also gain profit from readers, 90% goes to the author and 10% for the blogging site.

Anyway, here is How to actually make money blogging (on read.cash or anywhere).

in theory, writing articles is easy, you only need to know the opening words, content, and conclusions but in fact, writing interesting articles is difficult.
That's right, writing an interesting article isn't easy, you need to do hard work and it should be readable from the audience to make you a profit. Profit? But wait, if you are wrote an article today, don't expect that you will gain profit right after tomorrow or in just a week.

Actually, thanks for sharing this but I saw someone wrote an article the same on this OP.
3017  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Is there any app with notification when there's a transaction? on: September 25, 2020, 01:21:13 PM
As all that has been suggested above, the only tool that I like is, https://cryptocurrencyalerting.com/. The reason is they have different features of monitoring your crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price, coin listing, Blockchain metric alerts, and the most important that OP wants is a wallet watch, it will notify you when upon transaction confirmed. SMS alert if you are offline or away from the internet is the best choice and also, there is a free trial option of some service provider (and some did not) and after that, there is a charge.

I think mots of them need to register, I'm looking for an easy registration but usually, it is an email address and SMS phone verification.

I didn't try this but in addition to the suggestion above here is mine.
DYOR.
3018  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum not sending payment? Pending forever.. on: September 24, 2020, 10:28:00 AM
OP's problem sounds weird and there's no response yet from the OP. All questions above should be answered by the OP to clarify his problem furthermore.

1. Binance > Withdrew crypto amount into an address I did not even remember putting there, so this is were it even started going wrong (Binance cannot help me though).
Binance wouldn't help you once you already withdrew the amount from them, once the transaction is confirmed by the withdrew address, that's not their problem if you have control on this or even not on the address.

Can you drop it here the withdrawal transaction that found in your Binance account in the withdrawal history? If it is marked as a success, it means your Bitcoin was successfully transferred into the other address. So that we can trace if where goes your Bitcoin sent. If the address were under your control, you will unlikely recover it.

1. Binance > Withdrew crypto amount into an address I did not even remember putting there..
The above question is this, where the address generated come from? How came up you've sent your Bitcoin to that address that even you didn't have under control.
3019  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Blockchain.com Accounts Hacked in july on: September 23, 2020, 11:31:50 AM
My bitcoins are still in the wallets plus I didn't hear any news of hacked blockchain.
I believe this technology is hugged strong and there's no way to take it down. I request you to post any source link here so we can be more careful.
I think you need to heads up on this board, Web Wallets and use the search button engine on the forum and probably you will be shocked that there are too many of them who created a lot of threads towards this web wallet. Technically, this web wallet is very buggy and low response in support team, bunch of complaints against them. If you have huge of Bitcoin amount, I suggest to use hardware wallet.

On the other hand, don't trust wallet that you didn't the one who control the key (not your key, not your Bitcoin). Once your email account were hacked, goodbye to your Bitcoin.
3020  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Gibraltar Enables Itself to Comply with FATF guidelines on: September 22, 2020, 11:48:26 PM
I still remember the glorious days where people can enjoy cryptocurrency in any part of the world. But yes, it really has to be regulated.
I feel bad since another country is about to put a fence against the cryptocurrency. The FATF isn't that strict anyway. Cryptocurrency companies only had to comply with the regulations and they will be fine.

Just like FATF AML Regulation. This could be the fact that from time to time, there are too many changes by different tied up.
