Can't wait to get my second shot in a couple weeks.

What are you doing with this thread really, other than trolling? You're hoping you can troll him into coming back? Why? Just be the bigger man and leave it be.

I would delete this information and be careful with what you post here. Scammers might pretend to be you, or worse, pretend to be from support while tricking you into sending them... whatever. There's a lot of scamming fuckwits that monitor these types of threads looking for easy prey.

There was never a refund process. Consider whatever personal information you provided them with to now be for sale on the darknet.

Livecoin exit scammed with all of their user funds.

This is a fun idea for a thread. Well let's see, I've seen some pretty rancid shitcoins in my day but the worst of them all are the coins that manage to rake in money and even build a "community" without ever launching a coin at all. The biggest of these offenders would be OneCoin, which, as far as I know, didn't even have a blockchain, and was just a ponzi based on the awesome future of cryptocurrency (which never actually existed)

Ruja Ignatova, OneCoin's founder or president or whatever, apparently made off with billions, then vanished.



Rumor has it she was offed by the Russian Mafia, but who knows what really happened.

LOL! This is the most cheeseball turnaround I have ever seen. What a fucking joke.  How does this wallet continue to have users??

Happy for OP that he could withdraw his coins.

I wonder what draws people to use this wallet when there's so much clearcut evidence out there that it's a selective scam, at best.

Well I mean, at least you're not doing the whole "fake bids" thing.

Can I make a suggestion? You should make just 1 NFT edition of each print. You've made 999 and are selling them for $5k a pop... Kind of takes away from the specialness of something when there are 998 copies of it out there for sale.

It would also be a good idea to make some sort of descriptive back story for the piece: how did it come about? who made it? what's the artist all about? what does this piece mean?

Just my 2 cents.

When I see an ANN for a new project, I assume its a scam or future failure by default, as that is the statistically appropriate thing to do. Bounty hunters look at a fresh bounty and think "I might be able to get some money from this and I don't care about anything else." And it shows in their work. It's a narrow-minded, short-term point of view, and a waste of time given how much employment potential is out there for people who can demonstrate working knowledge about crypto.

Exactly.


Its up to you whether or not you want to take Trump's word seriously. Fact is he said it. Whereas Biden has been mum about bitcoin. Therefore a conclusion can be drawn based on these two facts alone, regardless of whether or not you desire to make it.


He didn't "increase taxes like crazy." Nobody who makes under $400k a year will pay more in taxes, which is the vast majority of Americans. Besides, he hasn't actually done anything yet! This is what I'm talking about, you're getting amped up over a non-event. You should ask yourself why.

If you want to hate on the government equally then that's fine with me, but I don't understand what the point of pretending Trump is better on the issue of bitcoin than Biden is when the available evidence suggests otherwise. Why people enjoy being puppeteered as political attack vectors is beyond me.


If you look back at what I said, I never claimed Biden is "good" for bitcoin. I just said he wasn't as bad as Trump, and it makes no sense to attack Biden when he hasn't said peep on the issue.

Let's start a petition to bring back fNFTs. If we all sign it theymost will have no choice but to make it so. It's part of the democratization of the forum, after all. We need to form a sophisticated forum government so we can basically order him around.


Bro wut? 

Don't drink and post, kids.

That bounty hunter you quoted... Who is that guy really kidding if not himself... Classic hardcore denial of reality, lol.

The whole thing reminds me of Ethconnect, one of the cleanest swindles of all-time. Hot off the recent successes of Bitconnect, this coin was, you guessed it, Bitconnect but on Ethereum. The main difference is Ethconnect never even existed!  

It conducted an ICO on the premise that its tokens would be used for a Bitconnect-esque "lending system." They had an almost neverending token sale, which continued well after it was exposed as a scam, and then packed up shop and rode off into the sunset without distributing shit.

This is most certainly not a valid excuse to withhold customer funds. If you won't let the customer send their funds elsewhere, they should at the very minimum be able to send them back to the address that sent the initial deposit. It's amazing that your website hasn't been confiscated yet.


That's the problem: we all know this already, but good luck.

Well I mean the thread title does have the word "Biden" in it, but this issue is indeed more about bitcoin than politics. Here's the thing: my assessment is based on concrete evidence whereas yours is based on assumptions. When Biden comes out with a FUD tweet about bitcoin then I'll re-assess my assessment.

Any government in the world would have been in favor of shutting down Silk Road. Interpol works with various law enforcement agencies around the world to shut down darket markets, with just as much impartiality as U.S. LE agencies do.

Ironically I'm the one here attempting to call out the effects of political brainwashing. My beef isn't with Republicans, its with people who get afraid of things that aren't actually happening.

It's only been a couple of days since the deadline passed, but yeah it looks like another hit-and-run scam. So they just did a token sale and then deleted everything, how nice. At least they couldn't be bothered to delete the bounty thread.

I was looking for an ETH address belonging to them to see how much they raised during their "presale" and couldn't find it. I did find an archived version of the white paper. It was shamelessly copy/pasted by hoards of bounty hunters on other mediums across the web.

The WP language doesn't appear to be plagiarized, it's original content. Whoever it was went all in on making a realistic-looking DeFi platform. Spared no expense. Except scams are expense-saving by nature, and they didn't even spend the ETH to make the token. LOL.

First of all, don't respond to anybody who sends you a private message here, especially if they are a Newbie, they are likely a scammer.

Down near the bottom of the email, you should see the words YOUR WALLET ID

Below that is the code I was talking about. If you don't see it, you can request a new email with it here:

https://login.blockchain.com/#/reminder

That code is your login name, basically. So, that's half of your credentials. The problem is if you didn't save that password anywhere, blockchain.com won't help you log in to your account.

If by any chance you saved your 12 word mnemonic, you can recover your account that way. Can't think of much other than that unfortunately.

That and the fact that bitcoins were a lot cheaper back then. In addition to paying a transaction fee of zero, you could buy 1 BTC for less than $14 up into the first month of 2013. Bitcoin simply is no longer practical for tipping. So it's not the forum that's "fallen from its original intent," it's bitcoin.

BTW, not to brag, but last year I did get an anonymous donation from somebody, and I've never asked for donations. That was pretty cool of whoever it was.


Merits are a fun tipping mechanism but being able to tip posters fNFTs would be better.

Do you have an email you received from blockchain.com? (Maybe it was blockchain.info back then, I forget when they switched). Your account #, a hyphenated series of numbers and letters, should be somewhere in the email. You can use that in combination with your email address to recover your account. Pretty sure, anyways.

Right, I'm not offended if that's what you want to believe. I kind of hope Biden never says anything about Bitcoin. That would be ideal. My overall point was that the same people who are quick to hate on Biden are the same people that are quick to support Trump. IMO that renders their judgment extremely suspect.



I can't put aside either of those things because that's all you need to know. Biden is de facto better on bitcoin as Trump has denounced bitcoin and Biden hasn't.

No, Trump didn't do something similar. Trump straight up said he hates Bitcoin.



Meanwhile, Biden hasn't actually said anything on the subject. So it makes no sense for Trump supporters to chastise Biden on his Bitcoin policy when

a) he doesn't have one, and
b) Trump's policy is provably worse.

This is the third time I've posted that tweet. It's like peoples' eyes don't register what it means or something.
