I'm not very familiar with Bitco.in website, but seems it's another Bitcoin forum. So, probably you're asking in wrong place about your issue. I guess it would be best to contact admins of this forum, maybe they will help you to recover your account.
I think the site OP is trying to refer to is freebitco.in

Bitco.in is another unpopular forum which seems to have been created to shill Bitcoin Cash and bash Bitcoin according to what I am seeing on the front page

@SeraaMasumi try contacting Freebitco.in's support (I don't know why they don't have contact links on their website, yet they are one of those old crypto related websites)
TheQuin is always active responding to issues in Freebitco.in's gambling thread, maybe you can post your question there or PM him

It would be nice if you show with the help of charts and technical indicators how you come up with the buy, sell price and stop loss. By doing so you will be helping lots of traders learn how to "fish" for themselves and not just have to give them fish every other day they feel hungry

For me, I don't like trading signals where someone just says, buy from this price and then sell at this price without any explanation or interpretation about how they came to that price.

So I guess it's just a display error on Safepals app? Worries me to the point to where idk if I should really trust safepal.
Yep, it looks like a bug. You don't really have to be worried about the safepal wallet if you already have the mnemonic phrase backed up and safely kept somewhere because those are your keys to spending the money and not safepal.

Safepal is just an interface that makes it easier for you to see your balance and spend after authorization but should you wake up one day when safepal is no more. All you have to do is restore your addresses in another compatible software app or hardware wallet, and you will still be able to spend your funds

3784  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cz taking advantage of the Nigerian government ban on bitcoin wrongly. on: February 07, 2021, 11:36:39 PM
Exactly, I didn't read much meaning into his tweet until I saw the tweet he was replying to. There's no way our funds on binance be it crypto or fiats can be more secured than that in the banks. I hate the fiat system but I think the crypto industry still has a long way to go before we achieve perfection. Currently power is been given back to the elite which are the few (Stake holders of Binance). They get the first treatment with the difference featured the exchange offers.
I noticed that type of character from him in the past. He's sort of an opportunist in all corners. I hope it doesn't lead to his downfall.

Now concerning the ban. Does this mean Nigerian traders won't be able to buy and sell cryptocurrencies using other Electronic payment methods that are independent of the banned banks like let's say Skrill?

It looks like the guy installed bitcoin miners on others' computers to build up his stash. As per the not your keys, not your coins rule, the German police is unable to do anything with it unless the guy (who got a two year prison sentence) will reveal how to unlock the wallet.

Only a 2-year sentence?
Hell yeah, I would conveniently forget the password too. Get out of jail in 2023, fly out of Germany to some safe haven and spend my $67.9 million or God knows how much the stash will be worth by then.
If He held those Bitcoins all that long minus spending them, then surely 2 years shouldn't be a problem.
3786  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cz taking advantage of the Nigerian government ban on bitcoin wrongly. on: February 06, 2021, 10:32:27 PM
Reading the tweet and what was quoted;
I don't think CZ emphasized anywhere that one has to hold their funds in Binance. I mean, they can convert NGN to crypto and hold it in an external noncustodial wallet.
Perhaps the purpose of the tweet was to alert Nigerian traders to convert their NGN as soon as possible as Binance may stop supporting it soon in a move to comply with the crypto ban by the Nigerian Government. Maybe the mistake he did was quote a tweet where someone was saying their money feels safe in the Binance wallet.

That being said, I think p2p exchanges will once again be away people from Nigeria will buy and sell Bitcoins. I am not sure whether there are other online money transfer services in Nigeria but Banks and other financial institutions will soon not be an option for receiving and sending money for crypto related trades.
3787  Economy / Exchanges / Re: storing BTC at exchange wallet long term on: February 06, 2021, 08:32:21 PM
Are people suddenly abandoning the idea of buying the dips and HODLing?

I don't understand why people are jumping into all this lending and DeFi crap. It makes no sense sending someone to hold for your Bitcoins all for just a less than 10% interest per Annum. On top of risking your assets with a third party, they are going to give you peanuts as your profits.

A person who bought the deep in March 2020 when BTC reached around $5K and HODLed in his safe noncustodial wallet has already made x8 (800%) profit  Cool as of today while the DeFi gang is still waiting for that 10%  Sad
3788  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Kucoin XRP Deposit <they ask for extra 10 USDT> on: February 06, 2021, 04:25:58 PM
The complication that I mentioned is that after you paid the money, they would return it to the platform you were sent to? Why not update your account balance as long as they are sure that the money belongs to you?
it is easy to update your account or access the private key and refund you?
The destination tags help them to know which account the deposit was made to. XRP unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum can use one address for thousands of accounts. What helps differentiate who sent how much is the destination tag.

1.  Accountability and Records: So If they just keep crediting accounts without tags and keep that untagged xrp in there, it may create problems for them in the long run when it comes to records and auditing. Just like you could have forgotten to use a tag, just know there are other people who may have done the same mistake in the past and more will do it in the future.

Now think about a scenario of a hack, like one that happened recently to them where someone got hold of private keys and started making transfers out of the hot wallets. How will they be able to make accountability for the accounts they credited minus the destination tag transactions.

2.  Security: You can never be so sure when it comes to all this online stuff and cryptocurrencies. The XRP ledger if public and one can easily see transactions that have destination tags and those that don't. Imagine I am a thief and I hatch an evil plan of sniffing around the exchange XRP addresses and look out for transactions with no DT. As soon as I see one, I contact support and tell them I made  a mistake and sent a transaction with no DT and within the 24 hours, they credit my account and I cash it out, meanwhile the real person who made the transaction contacts support after 2 days claiming the same thing. Someone innocent ends up losing money that way.

So to avoid all this, the best way is resending the funds back to the address of origin. They get to keep the ledger balanced or records intact while being very sure that they sent back the XRP to the genuine owner.


And the option of sending the $ 10, why not have one address for all refunds that you can get in general instead of sending it in private? With all the scams, asking for an amount from users seems strange.
I never experienced this but it surely looks fishy. Maybe try contacting them through different avenues and see if the response is consistent.

Does any of you know if they have Bitcointalk account? I sent to@KuCoin Exchange but I don't know if it's an official account and I will try to create a topic on Reddit.
It's their marketing representative here, He will just tell u to write to support.

Honestly, I don't know any pump and dump bot and even if they are there, they are probably scam. OP, why not just trade ethically, make your small profits and increase them progressively with time instead of trying to be very greedy and trying to get rich quickly and ending up getting scammed

Have you tried to search on the forum?

There is a big list of trading bots here on the forum you can read it from this topic below.

Great job OP. To be honest, I have never made such profits percentage wise within 1 month while spot trading. I always found it harder to make over 150% in profits as compared to my margin trading results. That's one hell of achievement for you! Whatever strategy you are using, it must be awesome  Wink
Keep up the good work and remember to be a disciplined trader through you journey.

    It's not as advanced as you think once you get used to its bro. I first learned technical analysis using tradingview while watching some YouTube videos and reading some trading blogs. With time, you find yourself getting used to the tool.

    i would also like to suggest a few alternative market analysis you can use depending on your interests;
    3792  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Kucoin XRP Deposit <they ask for extra 10 USDT> on: February 05, 2021, 10:50:43 PM
    What is this complex process? Why don't they deduct the amount from the amount I deposited? Or at least they tell me that I lost it forever.
    I will send 10 USDT they will return me the coin  Huh Huh

    I don't know about the recovery process and how complex it is but a number of exchanges ask for "a processing fee" to have your assets recovered. Apparently the process of recovering the wrongly sent asset from their wallets is risky, hence the fee.

    Some exchanges don't even bother telling you if there's a possibility of recovering your assets. They just tell you it's impossible. I have seen at least half- dozen such stories. Consider yourself fortunate that Kucoin said they can do it for a fee. Try pestering them without paying the fee. If they insist, then I guess you will have no choice but pay or give up on the assets.
    3793  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: tradingview best indicators? on: February 04, 2021, 01:00:18 PM
    what is the best indicator to catch a coin that it practically going up and down?
    If there was such an indicator then don't you think almost all traders would know about it by now?
    Don't you think we would be having far many traders who make gains than those who lose trades?

    From what I have heard, it said only less than 5% of the traders are successful. My point is indicators are not entirely accurate especially with cryptocurrency markets that can easily move in any direction in a blink. Sure you can use them to guide you but don't rely on them 100%


    Yoyo price trend? Is that a new trend or something? I never heard about it, and when I tried to find it on Google it shows the price chart for a coin called YOYO. Maybe you can explain it further?
    I wish there was a laugh reaction in this forum, I like how you innocently Google search and ended up with a YOYO coin  Grin
    3794  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance questions on: February 04, 2021, 12:39:11 PM
    1) Do they let your trade without KYC? What's the requirement like for their .com? I heard you can trade €5,000 worth of BTC a day without the need to KYC? Is this still the case?
    Yes you can trade minus KYC so long as it doesn't involve depositing and withdrawing fiat

    2) If so, then is it something that they say but later freeze your account with KYC demands even though you kept it under 5k and you didn't break their rules? I mean, sure it "could" happen, but is it common with them?
    It isn't common. I traded on Binance for 3 years, and they never froze my account.

    3) What are the requirements to do so - name, phone number, email only?
    That's pretty much it and maybe country and address.

    4) Can you trade as soon as you sign up (no KYC level)? How long is the signing up process? Does it require approval? Can you sell directly to them?
    Signing up take a few minutes, no approval needed except email verification. You can trade as soon as you set up your account

    5) Do they need KYC to withdraw?
    Crypto withdrawals below a daily limit of 2 BTC don't need KYC
    Fiat withdraws will need KYC

    6) Is it safe to get referral codes from strangers and use it to sign up?
    It's safe.
    3795  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trading Tips - Limit Orders on: February 02, 2021, 11:54:36 PM
    Your post is so confusing. It even got me confused for a few minutes. I wonder what it would do to a newbie.

    Correct me if am wrong, you cannot set a buy limit order at a price above the market price, or you can't set a sell limit order at a price below the market price or else it will Immediately get filled by the lowest sell (ask) or highest buy (bid) price

    Why not simplify things in your post by defining
    A buy limit order
    A sell Limit order
    A buy stop order
    A sell stop order

    You can use topics like The Basics of Trading a Stock: Know Your Orders as reference

    I searched about how to import wtch-only addresses, but all I can find is how to create watch-only addresses. Not what I need. I already have a wallet created and I want to import more watch-only addresses.

    Is this possible?
    Yes you can import watch only address. I am not sure what exactly is confusing you
    Go to New > Enter wallet name > Click Next > Select Import Bitcoin addresses or Private Keys > Copy and paste Bitcoin addresses you want to watch

    You can also use master public key;
    Go to New > Enter wallet name > Click Next > Select Standard wallet > Use a master key >  Copy and past your master public key > done

    3799  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet | Bitcoin Casino & Sportsbook | The No.1 Bitcoin Gambling Site on: February 02, 2021, 05:06:28 PM
    Just avoid the site at all costs guys.

    They scammed me for 0.08 btc and are ghosting me everywhere (including Curacao Gaming)

    Their explanation for this made no sense, they say they suspect that I used multiple accounts (which are not verified btw) and that's why they are locking me.

    Instead of just locking the unverified accounts they locked my winnings of 0.08 btc I made on a maistream bet Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder.
    If you didn't have multiple accounts on the platform, then how did you know that they were not verified?

    I think there various ways they can connect account minus particularly using verification documents. They can use IP address patterns, log in and log out times, betting patterns, browser data and user agents, transaction histories etc.
    3800  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Localbitcoins account verification on: February 02, 2021, 04:41:25 PM
    They have different tier system IIRC so people can avail 10K limit per annum by verifying their address and photo ID which is decent for someone who convert occasionally. And when our country doesn't really support cryptos or high taxes for crypto conversion then choosing the DEX is best even though the price offers are lesser.
    I think it depends on where you come from but seriously their additional questions for KYC are so strict and pointless. When I check it out on my account, It's Like an interrogation. On top of uploading your documents, they want to know about;

    - Your source of Income
    - How much you earn annually
    - Occupation
    - Source of your bitcoins and proof of the source etc

    I have a verified account on Binance for p2p trading, they have never required me to fill out such useless questions.
