Don't hurt your head thinking over it. The reason could be very simple. Maybe he just copied your proof of authentication post , changed all the details but forgot to change that address part.

If you sees the POA post again. You can clearly see that he edited the address in one part and forgot the other which makes no sense if he was intending any malice. Please send him a private Message about the mistake. He may not be aware.

You think day trading is always about making profits?

Well, tell that to millions of traders who at one point tried day trading. A big percentage of them(we are taking about over 90% don't make profits day trading)

Whereas for Holding, you just have to buy Bitcoins at the perfect time (during the dip or bear market) and then relax for a few years. There's a certain guarantee that you will always been in profits. If you are doubting this. Go look at the BTC charts since 10 years ago and see how the price has been rising.
3323  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop losses on: June 22, 2021, 11:29:21 PM
Just curious, do any of you set stop losses and recollect again later? Or do you just HODL regardless of what the dip is.

I don't know if you understand the meaning of HODLing but this is when you keep your coins until a target profit point and you don't bother selling them off regardless of how deep the price drops so it doesn't require stop loss.

The best thing to do is buying bitcoin during the dip like one where it was was $3K and then you HODL, if the price reaches $100K and then drops back to $10K, you won't be bothered that much because you bought the Bitcoin at $3K and you will have hope that it will rise back up during the bull market.

Stop losses are more applicable in short term trades.
3324  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: This sh*t ain't for the faint of heart! 😭 on: June 22, 2021, 10:16:10 PM
Depends on what your trading strategy is.

Are you going in long term, short term or Just day trading.

For Long term you need a lot of patience. One can buy even right now but they best time would be a complete bear market dip or what they call the bottom and be ready to wait for 4 years plus just incase the bear market goes on for so long.

Short term, very risky right now, Price might drop further to even $20K

Day trading (spot market) - decision should have been made to buy in the afternoon when it touched $28K and maybe take profits right now.
3325  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Clamcoin for sale heavily discounted from pricing on CoinMarketCap! on: June 22, 2021, 09:10:10 AM
The other exchange referenced on coinmarketcap in Yobit. One exchange whose prices you don't want trust is yobit. So I logged in and tried checking out the markets and orderbooks and it's disappointing
1. Zero 24 hour volume for all the pairs (CLAM/BTC, CLAM/ETH, CLAM/DOGE)
2. Bid and ask orders on the orderbook are so small. If you managed to deposit like 100 CLAM and tried to sell the off, you would plough through the buy orders like nothing
3. The wallet is on "maintenance". One can not deposit or withdrawal clam tokens... So the price difference shown by coinmarketcap is useless.

Anyone else US citizens still using binance without an issue overseas?
Assuming you open an account overseas, use documents issued to you in that overseas country to verify you Binance account and trade from there then yes, you won't have any problem.

Trying to use your overseas verified account in the US will subject it first to an IP address block, consistent use of your account may put it in the risk of getting banned/blocked

You aren't giving us all the details about what happened. For example:
- What the name of the tokens that were missing?
- What were you trying to exchange?

I suggest you open up a scam accusation with the necessary details using this format

Reporting the post is enough at this point. Flagging the user for this is not necessary. I can see the threads have not been deleted yet so I  suggest everyone to report the same ASAP and those who can see older reports can see if they got marked as "GOOD" or "BAD".

Possible the account could have been hacked in which case the red tag and the flags become overkill. >>
Code:
This user recently woke up from a long period of inactivity.
It's not an overkill. That's pretty much the standard procedure for anyone who posts scam websites or links here whether hacked or not.

Besides you can't accurately gauge that an account that just woke up minus even any password or email change was hacked unless the owner complains about it in meta and attempts to recover it. The Red tags and flags are meant to suggest that the person behind the account cannot be trusted.


However I am not suggesting removing them right away but if the posts get deleted then of course they should be removed. Just my two sats.
So that they continue posting ANNs containing phishing links/scam links with no warnings to guests and newbies  afterwards?
3329  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Gas fees already very low, so I think 1559 wont be too bad now on: June 21, 2021, 11:04:47 PM
In 2019 my 5700s were making .50$ a day.
Could even be worse, have you thought about the number of people who were mining ETH in 2019 vs people mining ETH right now due to how profitable it has been?  Cheesy

All of us mining ETH has seen a major drop in payouts over the past several weeks.  With Gas prices soooo low, when 1559 gets implemented, will it be as painful as it woulf have been say just a few months ago?  
It's because the ETH price is still holding the pieces together, that why you don't feel the pain. wait when it plummets to $300 which is very possible in a long bear market.

In the first place dude, may I know what altcoins are you planning to store it at the cold wallet?
Because so far the only wallet in which I used now was MEW, and Trust wallet and Metamask, and
I had been using this wallet for a couple of years now, and so far so good I didn't encounter any
problems while using it and keeping all the altcoins that's been there for a years now.
You certainly weren't paying attention during the time =https://qz.com/1261540/mew-ethereum-hack-the-internets-infrastructure-was-compromised-to-target-myetherwallet/myetherwallet's DNS servers where temporarily hijacked
People lost money and it's one of the reason why web wallets are not encouraged

Software wallets should also be used when storing small amounts of coins. One of the best options for a cold wallet is a hardware wallet. Most hardware wallets support multiple cryptocurrencies.
3331  Other / Archival / Re: Are shorts much easier for speculative trading? on: June 21, 2021, 10:24:53 PM
Hello everyone. The topic may seem subjective and will be based solely on your own observations. I would like to share my thoughts that in the crypto market, due to its volatility, it is much more profitable to get short than long. For 4 years of my activity, my short trades make up more than 70% of the total number of my trades. Profiting from a short is much easier, faster and easier to predict. The topic is more suitable for speculators than for holders.
Finally, someone who has the same thoughts like me when trading crypto futures  Grin

I realized this too sometime back and I know it's weird but even during the Uptrend in the past months, I was shorting and I could still make some 10-20% profits  with the pull backs whenever Bitcoin prices hit the resistance levels.

When it comes to a major drop like one that just happened in the last 24 hours, it even gets sweeter, on the 10x leverage,  I easily make 50% to 100% profit with in a few hours.

The reason why price drops are very aggressive is because combined stop losses on the Spot and futures market are triggered while for an uptrend, there are no stop losses above the price on the spot market. It's only a few take profits and stop losses on the futures market.
3332  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Webdollar mining on: June 21, 2021, 09:31:22 PM
If you are updated on crypto news, you would hear about the unknown Crypto that went up over 168,000% while btc was dipping, that unknown Crypto is called Webdollar.

On the 14th of June, a halving occurred rendering the coin scarcer and hard to be mined. This coin has the potential of outperforming BTC in 3 years and there is indication that it will be harder to mine than Bitcoin.

Aah, here we go again. Another day, another shitcoin claiming to out perform Bitcoin

The so called token sometimes has a 24 hour trading volume of less than $600. This is very laughable  Grin Grin
With a $600 24 hour trading volume, I could also afford to pump the coins price by 168,000% using just $10,000.

50% of the exchanges in which the token is listed in are scam exchanges. The other 50% it's my first time knowing about their existence today.

Actually webdollar has been around for quite awhile.

Ive periodically mined it, its not a scam.

Just because it's been there for a while don't mean it's not scam/fraud. Bitconnect lasted about 2 years and was still succeeding scamming people until financial law enforcement bodies had to step in
3333  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: atrad.io Scam? on: June 21, 2021, 08:45:00 PM
Yep.. it seems to be offline (non-responsive) for a while now.
https://atrad.io/  and  https://atrad.io/login  both timeout.
It's still online on my side which means that they are still scamming people.

You can use this site to determine if a website is really offline or just you - https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/atrad.io

This thread has more than enough information proving that Atrad.io are scammers.
3334  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what is the ideal price difference that people use to arbitrage bitcoin? on: June 20, 2021, 12:41:27 AM
Isn't that very risky though? If I understand this correctly, then you also need to transfer your coins between exchanges right? Are you sure the price won't change, or the transfer will make it through before the price change?

As far as I can remember, most exchanges require 1-3 confirmations nowadays, which is around 10-30 minutes (ideally).

Bots can usually bypass this by having funds in both exchanges which one thinks there's a price difference, so trades are executed as fast as possible before the price difference reduces.

Another type of arbitrage trading that doesn't require transfers or withdrawals is Triangular Arbitrage trading within the same exchange for example like Trading BTCUSDT then ETHUSDT then ETHBTC and repeat, in which the price difference can be profit.
3335  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what is the ideal price difference that people use to arbitrage bitcoin? on: June 19, 2021, 11:58:50 PM
Are you using an effective bot for arbitraging?

If not, then have it in mind that you as a person are competing against hundreds and hundreds of bots  Grin Chances  of making a decent profit are low especially on exchanges like Binance.

A few things i noticed about arbitrage trading
1. For pairs like BTC/USD or USDT, the difference is always so small. So those with huge volumes or high frequency trades make profits.
2. Most of the big price differences come about due to one of the platforms having technical issues like wallet for a certain coin being under "maintenance"(no deposits or withdrawals possible) so one can easily make losses if they rush to trade minus finding out what's happening with the other platform. Therefore, the bigger the price difference, the less likely you will pull it off.
3336  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: MyCryptoMixer scam exit? on: June 19, 2021, 11:49:56 PM
They have had a few issues in the past. Just check out their thread

There was also one complaint about 13 BTC that was lost in the Mixer, $600K at that time but it eventually got resolved.

Now I am not discouraging you from using the mixer but use it with care.

3337  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM ALERT] Tobbbrow account spreading phishing site in bounty thread on: June 19, 2021, 11:24:54 PM
it's great that you discovered the ANN as early as possible

Note: I hope the moderators to delete thread bounty immediately so that no one becomes a victim and this forum is clean from the spread of phishing sites
Do mods delete such posts too when reported? I always knew that scam is not moderated in the forum.

Regardless. I think a newbie or guest flag can  be quite helpful in warning newbies/guests looking at the ANN. So I created on against the scammer's profile.

3338  Economy / Exchanges / Re: order types appearing on heat maps on: June 19, 2021, 10:49:31 PM

So my question is, do both conditional buy orders and sell orders appear on heat maps above price, and if yes is there a way to know which is which?

Thank you
By the way there are 2 types of conditional buy orders. There's conditional limit buy order and conditional market buy order at least according the bybit that I have been using. Same applies to the conditional sell orders. Conditional limit orders will obviously go to the orderbook or what you term as the heat maps while conditional market orders will get executed at market price once the trigger price is reached.

There's no way of differentiating between a conditional buy limit order and a sell limit order in the orderbook(heat maps). Both order types are quite similar with just a small difference.

Key thing to remember - Any form of limit order will always appear in the orderbook regardless how long the name is  Wink
3339  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitpay $3000 limit without ID verification on: June 18, 2021, 11:58:24 PM
According to this article It seems that once you hit the $3K mark on a total of a transaction volume, you may need to verify before using the account again.

Quote
Why is Additional Verification Required?
Payments ≥ 3000 USD or refunds ≥ 1000 USD require users to provide additional verification (verification requirements may differ by region and/or amount) by obtaining a BitPay ID.

Same generic message as seen in the official livecoin thread. Lots of new accounts are being created to post that they have received 50% of their funds. This a dumb move if livecoin are at all the ones behind it.

Here are a few more simillar messages that were posted in their thread today
