362  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Lost email address for Blockchain on: March 10, 2024, 10:09:28 PM
Just an update on this.

In the email address that I originally thought was associated with the account (and one which they deny is linked to the account) I have found a number of emails.

The first, in 2014 was a welcome to my wallet email. This has the wallet ID which matches what i had written down.

There's another in 2017 asking me to verify the email (whether I did or not I have no idea)

Then there were two emails in late 2017 asking about attempted log ins from a mobile phone.

A final one was sent in 2018 regarding EDPR updates.


So I have sent another message to blockchain customer support.


If you say the last message was in 2018 and you may not have logged in since then there is a high possibility that they deleted your account due to not logging in for a long time or due to new wallet updates.
This is a message I received stating the need to activate the email:

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/03/10/yimtJ.jpeg

Or there is another possibility, since you say that you logged in from a mobile phone, perhaps someone other than you logged into your account and changed the associated email.
Make sure to check if those emails are from the official blockchain.com/info domain and email. Because I've got an email that have been never published to the public but after registering to websites like them, I've received the same email phishing attempts and I have never confirmed and clicked any of those links when they ask me to. It's best for osiris to just confirm it with the support so that he won't be a victim of any potential threat of phishing/scam. Good thing for me that before everything and realizing things for this web wallet, I was able to withdraw everything from them. With all the migration and upgrade that they do, I've seen people had problems coming from their mnemonic/recovery phrases to emails, to ID # wallets and all of those login details that they don't even provide retained solutions for the old users and dormant accounts.

Experience in life will humble them. Those that are giving advise, good advises on how they should be wiser with their habits financially have been through tough times. It's actually a good thing that they're sharing their knowledge and life experiences so that whoever is listening to them will be able to skip that trouble. But even if you're showing them your are concerned about them and they don't appreciate it, once is enough of telling them how reckless they are with their money. If they don't listen, that's enough and you don't give any life advises anymore whether it's related to financial matters or with their life decisions. Not at all times we're too generous to give advises to the ungrateful people that don't even lend their ear to listen.
It's true, the people who can then give advice are usually people who have experienced mistakes from bad habits in managing finances, from there they already realize that it is something wrong, then we will share experiences with the aim of preventing them from doing it. the same mistakes we made in the past, even though that person was no one or just a friend.
When we have given advice and they don't want to listen, we have actually done what we should do, and if we prefer to remain silent when we have given them advice then that is not wrong. It depends on us, whether we will continue (giving advice) even though we get a bad response or whether we will stop because we feel we have enough to remind them.
As long as the tip and advises have been dropped already, it is for the listener to think if they will obey it or not. But those people that are full of life experiences and had a lot of debts and financing troubles that are able to overcome it, honestly they are the ones that are best tip advisers. And they are not going to repeat what they've said because they're also done with people that don't want to listen and yet they keep on talking about such advises. But when they see someone who's too eager to learn and are experiencing the same problems, they're for sure going to be there to help not with finances but with life advises on how to overcome those problems that they're dealing with. It's hard to find such people nowadays especially when everyone just think of how to overcome the toughness of survival.

Don't forget about the fake airdrops and giveaways. Many are still becoming a victim of these schemes because they think that it's not going to spend them money. But with such airdrops and giveaways, many of these scams are wanting the participants to spend for gas fees and on top of that, there's a probable commission from them. That is why I am not fond of these because those that have a high risk appetite are the ones participating with those and sometimes, out of ignorance, there are victims that are even filling out forms and they voluntarily give their private keys as if it's really a requirement.
365  Economy / Economics / Re: Banking on people's ideas, visions, and talents. on: March 09, 2024, 10:08:38 PM
Have you ever met individuals with insane and brilliant ideas that got you wondering, how come he knows all this and it's not even reflected in his life? Some could give you real business ideas that could change a whole generation but that's all they can do, they can't bring it to reality and all their ideas only end on the discussion ground and never come to life.

I've met some of them and I must say, they are the backbone of so many successful businesses. Always with brilliant solutions to hands-on problems but can't put things together all by themselves to create a company of their own.
If it remains an idea, it won't matter at all. Whoever goes first with the execution is the one that shall benefit from that idea. And that's why there are angel investors that are just trying to get into other ideas that haven't been executed yet and those doers with money, upon knowing some crazy and good idea if they happen to see the advantage then they will be the first one to do that idea than the ones who have originally thought of it. But one thing here is, this is why many lawsuits are being filed because of ideas. You don't expect that you have the only unique idea out there, somewhere in any part of the world has also the same idea as you.

I believe nature is fair to all and while it gives some people that quality, others can bank from these brilliant ideas and bring it all to reality by supporting the ideas with the needed finance, resources, and coordination required to have a successful firm.

What do you think?
That's true, that's why many startups are asking for crowdfunding for them to bank on their own ideas. The owners of these ideas and as they execute it, they are valuing their idea through having these investors that are believing on the concept and idea that they have. But some of them are overvaluing them and when the money is already on their bank for pushing that idea and business that they have established, many of them cut their slack off because the money is visible on them as that stops the motivation. With that, it's best to always check out who have the reputation into these concepts.

There are people that don't want to get noticed with how reckless they are with their spending habits. Instead of giving thanks to you for reminding them to be wiser with how they spend money, they're going to tell you to stop doing that and mind your own business. Well, the concern is there and if you're a true friend, you'd definitely be happy that someone is looking after you. Because if not, no one's gonna be there to correct you out with these mistakes that you do. Other than that, you know that all actions that we do have an equal reaction to our lives. So, if you do good then you know that something good is going to comeback to you.
Not everyone can accept advice, even if it is someone close to them, but if that person cannot accept advice then it will make him upset. especially in financial matters, they will definitely think that they are using their own money without harming anyone when they shop excessively. That's what makes them not accept any advice from other people.
Yes, actually there is nothing wrong with that, because it also doesn't harm us. However, this is a form of our concern for them so we want to remind them to be more regular in spending money. We can remove things that shouldn't be too important from the shopping list.
Experience in life will humble them. Those that are giving advise, good advises on how they should be wiser with their habits financially have been through tough times.

367  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Nano X Firmware 2.2.3 Is it secure to update? on: March 09, 2024, 10:46:19 AM
They will simply say that it's for the sake of safety update and that's why everyone has to do these firmware updates, in the end, it's just all about the ledger recover update. But even their older version, they've said that they're not going to let it have that feature but then, they're all forcing their versions to have an update and said that the older nano s will have to retire soon and that's why everyone should update their firmware.

Thank you for quick reply. I will buy another HD wallet.
Much better. We've got plenty of choices nowadays.
368  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: SCAMMED by HitBTC on: March 09, 2024, 07:06:26 AM
Thank you all for the support. I am confident that I will succeed, not only to withdraw my remaining coins, but also to recover the rest that were stolen.
I think that by making everything public maybe something positive will happen, not only for me but also for the other victims.
Good luck with that, you're too optimistic even if they have a bad history on how they handle things. Making some noise through public is actually going to take their attention.
Aside from making threads in here, why not also go to their social media accounts and as well as their sub-reddit community? Although based on the posts there, most of them are also concerns and troubles about them: https://www.reddit.com/r/hitbtc/
That might give them some knock if ever one representative of them have been lurking into their communities and is able to read concerns like yours.
369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many satoshis are there per person in the world? on: March 09, 2024, 05:57:54 AM
What I've noticed is that the decimal for satoshi per person is dropping in seconds and the same goes for the world population and moving a lot increasingly per second. While with my simple research, there are 4.4 people that are born every second. The website tells more than that based on its move per second. Anyway, that's not the important point but if there's a basis and API with this metric that the owner of this website did, it's actually a good information and it just made me remember the websites like preev.com that I've missed already although it tackles differently as it's more of the price of BTC only and some other altcoins.
370  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Nigerian Telcos Have Blocked Nigerians access to all crypto exchange websites on: March 08, 2024, 11:47:43 PM
I guess it is time for you guys to utilize whatever access is given to you by telcos, do you still happen to access decentralized exchanges? Like uniswap, sushiswap, etc?

Most crypto users in Nigeria are majorly traders,  who buy and sell coins,  the set of cryptocurrency users in Nigeria make up for the large total volume coming from the side, and only a few have the basic knowledge such as how best to secure your coins in a fully decentralized manner.

This is not the first time an ugly event and pronunciation like this will happened,  and each time the government got the approach wrong.
They were even recorded as one of the fastest growing country in terms P2P transactions in the crypto market and yet the government did this.  Undecided

Honestly, with how messy things are, I would withdraw my money on binance if I was from Nigeria and just come back again when the skies are clear.
I would also do that while they can still access it through VPN. The government is targeting them and I think that there's a reason why they're pulling over this scene. This could have something to do with the $3B settlement of Binance US and about being unregistered but operating in their locality and they also want to have that chunk for being not locally registered in Nigeria.

Thank you for your answers and support.
I contacted them from my personal email, from which I created the hit btc account, and they answered me the following:

Dear Trader,

Thank you for your reply.

I am sorry to tell you that additional time is needed to research your case. I have escalated your request to our team, and we are already looking into this for you.

We will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience!

I opened this topic so that there are no others in my situation.
I wanted to raise an alarm signal regarding these THEFT practices, without giving you the opportunity to withdraw your coins, without being notified in any way of the change in the regulation...
When it comes to replies like this, I always give enthusiasm to the person that's raising their concern to the platform that they've raised it. But this time, if it's hitbtc, I am sorry to tell you OP that they don't have a good reputation since long time ago. They're really terrible and I guess that they're even kind to reply you on your email telling that they're taking time to investigate on your concern. But sorry, no hopes with that as they're known for being notorious and you'd definitely going to be the luckiest person ever alive if they granted you your request for withdrawal. So, if you're thinking that they're going to give you back your money, they might but I doubt it that it will be the soonest and really terribly sorry for disappointing you but that's truly what hitbtc is like and just expect and consider it as a total loss on your end.

Now I am profiting from my Bitcoin investments then and one of my colleagues is now in dear need of financial help, he needs some help, not life-threatening but money, and now I am not ready to loan him any money as long as it affects my overall Bitcoin holdings.
You know the answer bud. You have to say NO because these friends of ours are just using us as an option even if they have another greater option. You have admitted that you're not ready to loan him and you have taken your want away instead of taking them close to you with that money of yours. You've sacrificed for how long and then there's this guy will approach you out of nowhere trying to loan you some money. Just say politely that you're not going to lend him some money or if you can give him a little portion of your spare money that you're okay in not getting paid with it so you just can get rid of him trying to ask you once in a while. I've been there and done that, they're quick to ask money but when you ask them to pay money, they're turning into dust and gone in the wind.  Tongue
agree with you, if the OP doesn't actually want to lend the money. it's better to say firmly that you can't give him a loan. You could say your money is being invested, so you can't give it away quickly and it will take a long time to withdraw it.
If I were him, I wouldn't disclose that my money is invested because that borrower will anticipate that you've got the money to lend and you even attain to invest and that's why there is a tendency that borrower will force you or will tease you to lend him because you've been well with finances as you're able to invest unlike him.

but if you still have a sense of humanity, you can just buy their goods. That way they are still helped financially, you can still have what they bought before. or just give away a small portion of your profits. It's time to share your good fortune with those who need it more.
This is what I am saying, as long as the amount is affordable and it's not a huge amount for you and won't considered as a loss, it's better for you to just give that help and tell him that's the best you can do and next time, it might be a no can do for him already because you've got a lot of responsibilities to cater.

374  Economy / Economics / Re: When luxury becomes a necessity. on: March 08, 2024, 11:33:48 AM
Macbook or any laptop for productivity isn't a luxury but it's an investment to be considered because you'd use that for your job and tasks which will earn you money. Luxury are things that you don't really need but you are able to purchase it extravagantly like you have tons of spare money and you have nothing to use for that. I'd go for the high quality things that I'll need for my productivity but I'll avoid spending money on luxurious things that I may just be disappointed later on because it has the same purpose as my other thing. Things like a macbook, despite being expensive but it's proven to be worth the purchase because you can use that for several years before you upgrade again.

Have you bought something that people feel is rather too expensive and that you could have purchased a lower version of it? What was your inexperience like after that?
I think a car and also with devices as you've exampled it with computers and laptops. Those folks that are living in a country where commute is toxic, they'd rather purchase an expensive car and treat it as an investment because it is giving them convenience while they travel. We know that cars do depreciate over time but the value and convenience that it provides you is worth the buck. There's a lot to justify that but many of the members here live in a country where they have a better public transport and they don't see having cars as something productive but just rather an expensive stuff and luxury.

Hello all BTC
can we talk about the source behind BTC price
Demand.

yes there is only 21m btc but iI think that it is not enough
It's more than enough and that whole supply isn't mined yet. For us to see the entire supply of 21M get mined will take a century and more.

it make anyone reach just by bying and hodling it
we normally get rich by working, studying or something else but not hodling
You don't say that to the early adopters that have bought Bitcoin a lot with just a few spare of their money. That only proved that holding can make someone rich. You don't get rich by studying but the byproduct of it if you ever learned a skill or two.

there is that guy who keep all his time studying and working and get paid just to pay rent, food and his family (life should be like that)
there is that guy who never studied or work just get some btc and hodl it  Huh

thank's
I don't understand you really. What you have to understand is we've got all means of timelines and how we can get well in life and you're just in the forum where everyone will say that holding bitcoin is one of the best idea and investing techniques that we ever did.

377  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price is going to touch all time highs on: March 07, 2024, 09:05:05 PM
It is reasonable that it's going to touch $70k anytime soon, we've seen that it's so close from there and will also surpass that price. But for now, we have to wait until what will happen next. It was followed up by a huge dump that had shook the weaklings and those that have weak hearts. With that, for sure that the whales have taken huge profits as well while many retailers have been scared to death when they've seen that it had pumped to $69k and then within a few moments of their lives, it had plunged to $61k. It is no brainer that we'll back there soon and this is why many are counting on that this is the cycle wherein we'll see Bitcoin touching $100k anytime soon but most likely, next year.

Look for the real ones that have worked for a casino with this matter. They can serve as your consultant as well and can work with you with other things as you try to establish what you are trying to build up. Go with the ones that have experiences already into building a casino because this is the hardest part of whom you're going to choose to work with you until you get up there. At the same time, I know that believing in oneself is a big thing on this end but don't be too confident so that you just don't break your expectations and don't get frustrated when you're not able to deliver what you're expecting and thought of doing so.
379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Massive withdrawal of Bitcoin on: March 07, 2024, 10:56:10 AM
Anytime the price of Bitcoin skyrockets, there would be massive selling of Bitcoin and this practice(s) have always lead to the price of Bitcoin falling back afterwards. During the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs, it was observed that the massive selling of Bitcoin when the price got to $48,000 made the price to fall to $38,000, it was after the corrections that the price began to soar higher again till now that it has set a new ATH of about $69,210 and immediately, massive selling and withdrawal of Bitcoin was also noticed.

Wouldn't this continues practice of withdrawing and selling off whenever the price skyrockets going to slow the volatility of Bitcoin to continue skyrocketing? Since the price automatically starts experiencing a dip after every massive withdrawal.
It's normal to have these withdrawals to come whether we're in a bull run or not. It's for everyone to decide whether they want to sell or not and that can't be stopped when people wanting to sell what they are up to by that time. Just expect that at any price range of Bitcoin, there's always people that will massively sell their bitcoins and expect even the dormant accounts that has hundreds to thousands of bitcoins that have been held for a long time might also get into withdrawals and will eventually get sold. What you're worrying about is with these withdrawals and sell offs in the market when it's normal on any market to have these actions. You, as an individual of this market will also have to sell whenever it is necessary for you to do so and yet, other people aren't worried about you and us trying to sell when we need to do it.

I've heard them before that they're legit and operational in India. In fact, just like any other exchanges they also have their own token which is named after the exchange and listed on Binance: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wazirx/
But with all the details of how they've scammed you should be told and tell us more about it. I don't mean just because I've heard them long before and they have a token means that they're outright genuine. Though some problems do exists in every exchange for their customers when they're not satisfied with the service or when something goes wrong with their accounts and trading activities.
