3001  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Communities on: April 30, 2021, 01:37:50 PM
Have you heard of similar Bitcoin communities? Share them here. These small communities would serve as a sort of a case study for Bitcoin's viability.
I did some digging and I think I might've found one more, but it's on a smaller scale compared to what you've included in your post: Everyone in This Village Now Owns Cryptocurrency

In a small village in Ukraine, all residents are now owners of cryptocurrency, thanks to an initiative by the head of the village council. Cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin and ether, can also be used in the village to purchase items such as eggs, lard, meat, and milk.

Because of the current pandemic, I'm expecting to see more of these smaller towns or villages popping out [due to such limitations] and that shows how important BTCitcoin could be if we try to use it for the right reason/cause.
3002  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I made a YouTube video "HOW TO USE BITCOIN PRIVATELY - 2021" on: April 30, 2021, 11:46:59 AM
Any feedback is much appreciated.
I skimmed through that video [mostly; can't comment on what you said] but I did notice the lack of having a walkthrough/demo [I did saw a few screenshots but those aren't enough] for each of those parts [mentioned also by semobo] and since you're targeting newbies out there or those that are specifically searching for those terms, then you shouldn't limit your video from reaching its full potential [that's its current state at the moment].
- If I were you, I would've divided your video into several parts so it'd be shorter and would've integrated the above line as well.

Transaction via escrow
Even though that's a good sign, that's also a false sense of security for the buyer since nothing stops you from recovering/retrieving most of the online accounts out there, and your ML account is no exception.

Moving conversations away from this forum is already a red flag in itself.

Do you miss the Bitcointalk user VOD?  
Personally, I do [FYI, I'm straight] and on a serious note, I felt an emptiness when frequenting the "Project Development" board [for the past couple of weeks] and it's a shame that it took a thread/poll like this to make me realize that one of our best assets is missing [SMH].

the only complaint I could have would be the unnecessary drama between longtime forum members. Everyone isn't always gonna get along, but the back n forth drama could be handled better.
Amen to that!

You might want to mention if you're willing to use one of the escrow providers [except me] for its sale.

I dont know why I cant post pictures here with my username.. ?
You can post pictures but it'll automatically change to links [rank limitation].

I'd suggest keeping the conversation in here since those apps are a safe haven for scammers.

I requested the refund and shortly after they sent me to I wondered if anyone had any experience with their website.
You forgot to finish your sentence but unfortunately, I think you've been using a platform that was meant to scam its users...
- They "claimed they've started in 2016 [archived]" but that's not the case.

  • You made two mistakes:
    • Not doing your own research prior to using a new platform.
    • Purchasing the wrong product.
3007  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Start Dates of Crypto Exchanges on: April 29, 2021, 02:53:54 PM
Hi, is it possible to know the dates when each crypto exchange (Binance, Coinbase,...) started operating?
In addition to BitMaxz's suggestions, you can also refer to the following thread: Crypto exchanges comparison [trade fee + listing fee + age + mobile app + more!]

Note:

  • It's outdated [almost a year] so it's probably missing some names.
  • Only some of the launched dates included months as well.

If so, how can I get this information?
Alternatively, you can use something like "Whois Lookup" in order to get their exact creation dates...
- Having said that, creation dates shouldn't be considered always as the exact operation dates.

3008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Phenom Mobile Crypto Application on: April 28, 2021, 08:43:21 AM
Is it profitable?
None of the mobile mining apps out there are profitable by any means; That has been the case for the past few years and on top of that, you risk damaging the components inside your mobile devices [apart from the possible hacks and other stuff].

It has some packages starting with 100 USDT.
If it's really a mining app, then why they're selling packages of that sort?
- Nonsensical [another red flag].
3009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: coinex-change.com scam? on: April 28, 2021, 07:42:55 AM
Those have to be the worst excuses ever made by scammers out there Cheesy

or some of you already encountered with this one (i mean the very site: coin-exchange.com) ?
None of us could've had an encounter with that scam exchange since it's just 6 days old, even though they mentioned [lied] launching back in 2017:
- I'm sure I'd be able to find other things [e.g. plagiarized parts and etc...] but I don't think it's needed at this point.

3010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: George Residence becomes first hotel to accept Bitcoin in Nigeria on: April 28, 2021, 06:00:11 AM
“Bitcoin permits our guests a faster and more secure way to enjoy the comfort we offer. Our residents desire simplicity, and we are excited to be able to offer that to them,” the CEO had stated.
I'm not sure about the current situation when it comes to traditional means of payment in Nigeria but is it really that bad [slow, insecure, and complex]?
- Having said that, I did enjoy reading the above line.

However with the increased transaction fee initially the hotel won't receive more payments settled with bitcoin.
The downward slope has already begun Smiley

How is the hotel going to adopt bitcoin if banks there aren't allowed to deal with crypto currency?
In addition to Upgrade00's post, in that article, it also mentioned that they've partner with a "brokerage firm [Coinvest Africa]".

Due to your previous history, I was hesitating to view your news platform at first, but it appears to be just an aggregator of some sort so perhaps it's fine to an extent.

You mentioned "products comparison" but I had no luck in finding anything in regards to that; Care to point me in the right direction?

Though if the comic's author has statements that this named character is really based on satoshi nakamoto (bitcoin creator), then that's great.

3013  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Unable to withdraw small amount of bitcoin from CEX.io - on: April 27, 2021, 06:46:47 AM
Since they have a withdrawal limit of 0.18598622 ($10,000 right now),
Are you sure about that? I'm not one of their users but AFAICT, their minimum withdrawal is 0.002BTC [link].

  • Other possibilities:
    • You're using a phishing website.
    • You've mistaken the daily max withdrawal limit for their minimum limit instead.

they are not letting me withdraw my BTC, even if I decide to close my account.
~Snipped~
After ignoring a few of my messages, they responded stating they will not lower their withdrawal limit.
Can you provide screenshots of your conversation with their representative?

Does anyone know how I can solve that issue?
You might want to contact CEX [representative] or post in their "ANN thread".

Interesting chart but for some reason, as soon as it loads on almost all of the browsers [except Tor], it changes to a blank white page [tested on Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Edge].

  • Suggestion:
    • Ability to highlight a certain period as opposed to available options [30D, 6M, YTD, 1Y, 5Y, and MAX].

annotate news that affect price.

  • You can also convert these cryptos to the following FIAT: BRL, CAD, CNY, EUR, GBP, JPY, NGN, USD
As it stands, we can only use it for cryptocurrency to fiat conversions as opposed to also doing the crypto to crypto conversions.
- You might want to consider adding the latter part that I mentioned above and also include more cryptocurrency and fiat options.

Btw, from where you're fetching the BTCitcoin price since you mentioned prices for some are based on it?

I think there might be something that's affecting the results since I got inconsistent results:

  • I used a random unconfirmed TX and got the following results [a bit similar to bitmover but I only used a "single" transaction]:

Also, images and layout WILL break if you do something else than testing the feechecker
I didn't do anything else apart from the feecheker but it still affected an image [above SS].
