Right, you're not a "boot", you're a human doing the work of a bot. And nobody believes anything you have to say. Whoever hired you is wasting their money.

The last bots that unsubscribed there at the end of April were so lazy that they simply copied the report from each other, word for word. Of course, no one believed in this theatrical performance of compensation for victims and laudatory reviews.

Good.

I can't believe they think people are stupid enough to fall for this nonsense.

@Ratimov Do you tend you think it was an inside job that took the exchange down? That's what it looks like to me. I'm just trying to imagine why they would bother even pretending to do a distribution... So people will stop asking for their money I guess.

Well, they'll never stop asking.

He's pretending to be Biden while also joking about it... who would do such a weird thing.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8921677/Meet-75-year-old-Joe-Biden-impersonator-Kevin-Dalton.html

If you get paid enough, you might surprise yourself about how far you would go.

Cool

How much is enough to post thousands of links to fake news/conspiracy/pseudo science sites on the internet?

Clearly we failed to consider that Kevin Dalton is both Biden and a Biden Impersonator contemporaneously. Just because he got hired to be fake Biden, it doesn't mean he has to quit his other job as fake Biden.

I heard he got a third job recently: playing the role of the guy who is supposedly fake Biden.

ive been invited to take the AstraZeneca vaccine this week. I already had covid tho last year...would you still take it?

That's a good question. Personally speaking I got it because it will help immensely should I choose to travel. You should just get it as the worst thing that will actually happen to you is a sore arm.

Yes, same. I live in two countries Australia and Indonesia so need it in order for Australian regime to even consider letting me out.

Really? They won't let you leave the country without a vaccine? I'm waiting for the Philippines to reopen and it doesn't seem like it ever crossed anyone's minds that its OK to let vaccinated travelers back in. Waiting for the situation to evolve is frustrating.

"Updated. 1,189x before interest."

LOL what does "before interest" mean? You can't add amounts of coin to a price, they are two separate units of measurement.

Think about it:

Your 10 shares of McDonald's are worth $10 each. They do 10x in 10 years and are now worth $100 each. The whole time you are earning dividends so that in 10 years you've earned 1 extra share. So you now have 11 shares that you paid $10 a piece for. The price of the 11th share still went up by the same factor as all the rest... So you wouldn't say McDonald's did 10x "before dividends." It's the same concept.

Clearly this is not a token for critical thinkers.

where to buy Dogeparty?

You can't buy it anymore as all the servers went down. The dev sold a lot of tokens (with the help of Adam Levine from Let's Talk Bitcoin), ran the server for about a year, and everything was cherry -- it was an awesome concept. And then one day, poof, gone. No real explanation or anything.

I'm lucky I saved my private keys for the Dogecoin addresses I used to make Dogeparty tokens. Unfortunately I sold the doge in there several years ago, though.

Sorry about the experience. It's definitely my first time hearing about the casino (would you mind sharing its link?)

There is nothing much members here can do to help recover your money especially if you deposited in crypto.

https://mybcasino.ag/

I was surprised by the title of this thread as MyBookie is a pretty bigtime operation; of course their URL is different:

https://mybookie.ag/

Turns out the casino is owned by MyBookie, at least according to this review.

They advertise on a few podcasts I listen to... they spend a lot of money on advertising, too bad the hosts don't know they have such an awful reputation.

On 27 January 2021 Openledger ApS was declared bankrupt and attorney Søren Aamann Jensen was appointed as trustee. I am handling this case on behalf of Søren Aamann Jensen.

During my handling of the bankruptcy estate, I have been informed, that the platform operated by OpenLedger ApS containing bitcoins etc. has been hacked, and all bitcoins and other crypto is lost. During the handling of the bankruptcy estate I will try to confirm the information about hacking and see if I can find more information about the bitcoins etc.

For now, I will register you with a claim towards Openledger ApS in bankruptcy. In order for me to do so, please send a specification of your claim (how many bitcoins did you have etc.), and documentation proving your ownership to the bitcoins.

"Hacked"... suuure they were hacked. You probably don't believe them either. Its actually pretty simple to see who was hacked and who wasn't via the blockchain. You just have to know what to look for.

The information they gave you was pretty vague, but I'm pretty sure they are referring to a hacking event that took place after this:

https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/openledger-dex-compromised-phishing-attack-account-activities-suspended/

In any case, I wouldn't believe them, and I would go hard with the legal route until this guy coughs up your funds. He certainly shouldn't be allowed to proceed with any business ventures after this.

I was just looking through my old posts in this thread and while I was a dick (and still am) I was never an ounce too harsh on this shitmeister. Weird how he can still get paid for bragging about his crypto fund and telling people how to avoid crypto scams when he himself is a bonafide crypto scammer. Wonder why no one ever brings that up.
3170  Other / Meta / Re: P&S moderator? on: May 13, 2021, 08:55:39 PM
I've reported a couple of posts over in the board and they remain unhandled.

I think someone will handle those reports. I haven't noticed any significant issues with P&S reports, I guess global mods pick it up when they can, although having a dedicated moderator would be better. I would have suggested to appoint squatz1 but he's been inactive for a while too...

squatz would be a good pick; from what i can tell he's a pretty open-minded and even-keeled guy. hope he comes back and accepts the nomination for the position.

I don't know what happened to FH; we communicated pretty regularly for a couple years. He had been expressing increasing disinterest in forum ongoings for a while, prior to his apparent departure.

Definitely looks like a case of a hacked account. Addresses are fresh, and, wouldn't you know it, they just applied for a ChipMixer spot. How quaint.

The former poster definitely put some thought in their posts and was passionately engaged in several different discussions... The new owner doesn't give a shit about much and has the personality of a door.

Hello can you review your feedback? The feedbacks are from a group of indians whom are in competition with me. This is why no picture or proof was attached. Now they dont work in this field anymore this is why they never posted again since march

OK I deleted it as the evidence is ultimately insufficient for a tag.

Haha... This is great. I was sketched out opening it at first and used Tor. But it appears to be a legit complaint site about Livecoin. This is one of my favorite parts:

Quote
With fairly drastic checks for the 1st 50% and compliments on social networks and forums for the second half.

The calculation is quickly done : $ 1 billion worth of cryptocurrency stolen on December 24 is now worth + 500%  =  $  5 billion.

For the moment they are at 616 half payments or 308 victims (small carriers) reimbursed in 80 days and less than 100 000 usd (crumbs!)

If they reimbursed all the victims at this rate it would take 170 years !

And there has been no refund for 15 days   !   (   https://etherscan.io/token/0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7?a=0xf99dddd7153b9f2ed44d41429ede1ab71232aee0  )

They are right about the $100k being "crumbs"; even if the number is now closer to $200k that is still almost nothing compared to even just $100 million ($5 billion is a bit high, they were probably somewhat insolvent when they went down... actual figure is probably far less than $1 billion).

The website is a good initiative and while I don't totally trust it people affected by the Livecoin scam might want to consider taking up some of its advice.
3174  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: "HCP's ongoing experiment of the BotHIVE.io Trading Platform"™ on: May 12, 2021, 07:54:40 PM
Thanks for coming back. I'm just wondering how you could go from this:

HOW TO
1. Create a Bitmex account
2. Deposit the initial investment
3. Generate an API KEY, valid only for order placement and cancellation ( NO WITHDRAW)
4. Send me the API KEY and SECRET via telegram so i can setup the bot.
5. Rent a VPS for 10$. VPS is necessary to always keep the bot running.
4. Enjoy your month of passive income

To this:

(2,000+ word manuscript explaining why its the customer's fault)

What you are describing sounds like the furthest thing from passive income imaginable.

Under the "WHY" section of your one-pager:

Quote
6. NO STRESS: Trading and even Holding any asset can result in a lot of stress which
impacts the lifestyle. By securing funds in a cold and tireless bot managing the risk
24/24, you will never have to worry about the frequent and violent market moves of
the crypto-universe
.
7.PASSIVE INCOME: Long term safe passive income baked by 2 years of data, trade
history and documented trades easy to verify via API access to our live demo account.

So is the income "passive," or not?

Seems what's more likely than your customer being wrong was your reliance on conclusions biased in your favor, loosely drawn from a limited data set. You made the fatal flaw of assuming backtest data was the same as actual trading data -- it is not. Similarly, talking up a huge game based on unfounded arrogance did not contribute to your success.

You are a Hero member here with Activity: 1190, Merit: 754, Posts: 5568. The day you bought this account from that day how many posts you have made, how many merits you have earned and how many activities you have gained? Do you think it was enough for you to be a Hero member if I remove the old data? I guess no, but you are still getting paid for a Hero member in the signature, you are still considered as a Hero member and enjoying the privilege of being a Hero Member.

Interestingly, I've been coming across more accounts that get banned because their previous owner was banned for plagiarism after the sale took place. The most famous case of this happened with bill gator.

But the reason I bring it up is because, as you point out, (unless they specifically make it clear otherwise) they assume all the characteristics of that account's former identity; for better or worse. Once you take that account you basically become that person. If they didn't have much in the way of a personality, then you have a lot of room to run in developing a new one.

I could theoretically give my account away to a shitposter as a goof, just to see how many posts they could make before somebody spotted that it changed hands. What would the under/over be? I give them 2 posts.
3176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I regret selling BTC for entering DeFi. HODLing is the way! on: May 12, 2021, 05:51:44 AM
Never regret spending your BTC. That's what it was born to do. The purpose of bitcoin's life is to be spent.

Sure, it's also a great investment, but in the meanwhile and if you have some to spare, spend that shit. Enlighten its existence. Fulfill its prophecy.

Thou shalt not buy or shill a narrative-based* coin unless you have a specific reason to think it has value.

Just a fun idea.

* narrative based - see Dan Helds article: The Rise and Fall of Crypto Narratives

LOL all Dan Held does is wave pom poms for Bitcoin. I'm not sure he's capable of penning a tweet outside of the maxi narrative.

His tweets always follow a formula, like "Its not what you can do for bitcoin, it's what bitcoin can do for you" and then a dozen or so bots say, "WOW. Stunning, yet so brave."
3177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Dogelon Mars: Alt Season at the height of decadence on: May 11, 2021, 10:15:48 PM
Took a look at CMC this morning to see how things were going and immediately spotted a few coins on the first page I'd never heard of before, and in high ranking positions too. But I'm not here to blindly discuss them without any sort of prior knowledge. I'm here to talk about some real shit-coiny shitcoins that have started to creep up the ladder for no reason other than pure hype.

For example, look at this, but please don't buy it, and certainly don't regard this as an endorsement of it:



A closer inspection of Dogelon Fucking Mars reveals it is an Ethereum token with a total supply of 1 TRILLION tokens.



The smart contract is a standard, boilerplate solidity contract. In other words, there's absolutely nothing innovative going on here except for the name.

At a current price of $0.00000191, it requires literally millions of tokens to equate for the ETH gas fee to make a transaction. Its one of these tokens that tries to make buyer feel powerful by letting them become hundred millionaires or even billionaires. People like the feeling of buying a shit ton of a coin and then just say, "when it gets to a dollar, I can buy a castle."

Meanwhile the market cap of the token would have to exceed that of Ethereum itself for it to ever have a price over 5 cents.


Why bring this up?

This and similar projects sound an alarm bell in my head that says alt season is just about finished. These kinds of projects creeping into the top page of the rankings lead me to believe the altcoin space is in serious need of a correction. I give us another month, tops, before the market starts to tank, potentially coming out of it only late in the year...

So taking over one company by another and using its brand is a scam and a crime?

Yes, if the company is misrepresenting itself. The analogy doesn't really hold though because in the real world acquisitions don't take place because the parent company is planning on running a scam with the acquired company. Did you mean to post this message from this account? LOL.
3179  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: HEX is your last chance at a 10000x crypto. on: May 10, 2021, 09:23:52 PM
Its interesting, so basically HEX is a tools to deposit your wealth and the longer you lock it the longer you will earn?
But im curious, where the interest funds came from?

In bitcoin inflation is paid to miners that dump their btc to pay electricity bills. In hex the inflation is paid to stakers that lock up their coins, they don't need to dump to pay for electricity.

Did you know that HEX is an Ethereum token, which is proof of work?
3180  Economy / Reputation / Re: This 2 account Connected on: May 10, 2021, 11:05:54 AM
Thanks for the invitation.

I came back here to reveal my new revelation about account purchasing in general, which is this:

If someone is purchasing an account rather than starting their own, its because they want the benefits of the reputation of the account, without having to work to get it where it is. So, if there's something that the original account owner did that the new account owner doesn't know they're inheriting, well I'm sorry but they purchased that as well. If you pretend to be Ted Bundy because you want to get hired as a crime prevention consultant (a profession he actually held as a mass murderer), well I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to treat you like you're Ted Bundy.

Or something.

Anyway.
