Feel sorry for you mate, there's a 1% chance to get your account back from what I've read from over the internet.

Be patient, but know when to take a loss and move on. Sometimes that's the best way to profit, it might go much MUCH lower.

If I had known that locking my account will be this hellfire I am experiencing now, I wouldn't lock it. After I locked it, I opened yopmail.com and saw that you can use any email you want there without any password, so I could reset my password and email, but I locked it and now I am in hell.
Just send me an email like:
"Your email has been changed"
"Your email has been changed to XXX, if this wasn't you, click here to revert the change."
It's so fucking simple.
"We've improved security by giving you a chance to lock your account forever, but we'll never EVER unlock it for you, fuck you"
I had a better chance of asking the hacker nicely to hand over my account..

The previous address that was on my profile was my Ethereum address, I can also prove ownership of that.
You can prove you own the account by signing a message with that address. Unless Theymos and Cyrus make an exception for you to recover this account , you have no chance. I read somewhere "mprep" saying Theymos did not give any guidelines for staked ETH address for taking as valid proof. It is bitcoin forum, Theymos will ask for bitcoin staked address only. Might your proof /validity may help in DT to tag that account. Lol, it was a bitcoin forum back in 2009, now it's a multi-coin forum and you can't expect everyone to have a bitcoin wallet. Supposedly any address of a decent altcoin (not easily 51%able) should do. It's not a multi-coin forum tho to be honest... the altcoin section was added because it was the only way to contain everyone coming in here creating altcoin posts in a Bitcoin forum, so out of convenience the containment board for alts was created. As far as you recovering an account without a Bitcoin address posted in a previous unedited comment/posted in a locked thread, it's next to impossible. There is people that have been waiting for months, even more than a year, and they signed not one but several bitcoin addresses, and theymos or Cyrus don't see these cases/simply cannot be bothered to recover the accounts. It is insane? indeed, but what can you do? it has been discussed several times that new staff should be doing this job to speed the queue up, attempts of such were unfruitful. I think there's no point in your case. I know there are quite a few accounts left unattended to and that is what I fear may be coming for me, from what I read 99% of the people don't get their accounts back. Considering that your account isn't an Hero account or above and you don't have the bitcoin address staked, unedited or in a locked thread, I wouldn't even bother to be honest. This guy for instance: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2251399.0Several verified messages on bitcoin addresses posted years ago, unedited or locked thread otherwise, all good. Apparently still no word from theymos or Cyrus. He will soon have 1 year of wait, probably a record, it's one of the longest waits I've ever seen with compelling evidence presented, and it's an Hero account to boot. So with examples like this, there's no hope for the average case of lost account unfortunately. The average case, right? That's more than a year's worth of activity lost. You know what grinds my gears? There's no security options on this forum, something like 2FA or verifying an email change through the old email... Not even sure if it's my fault I got hacked, this forum software is 10 years old.. |

Do you know how your account was hacked? My password and email was changed at a similar time, and I haven't logged in for a long time.
Also, my password is secure. Imho seems like there is a security issue with the forum in general?
I think it's a security issue too, because I saw quite a few accounts hacked by the same IP address. Password and email changed too. This is the address, 78.26.198.233. My email was changed to a YopMail email. This forum software is 10 years old so no surprise if it's a security issue. Lol, This happened because of the following reasons, - OP used his/her password somewhere else the one he used for his BCT account. - He got phished or social engineered. - He got rekt by RAT. I don't think there's anything else to happen, correct me if I'm wrong. I mean, that's the higher possibility, but this forum is anything, BUT secure. 2FA would've helped, email change confirmation would've helped. The software is 10 years old and yeah, maybe it's been upgraded, but this wouldn't be the first hack that happened to it, there are a few big ones that are public information. Yea 2fa should work for sure, It doesn't matter even if the software is 10 years old Theymos keeps updating the code himself. There's also a bug bounty thread for bitcointalk by theymos. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=309785.0I see, still doesn't explain why we don't have 2FA yet. |

All in all, you don't have to diversify.
If you have a small amount of money, let's say $100, it's not efficient to diversify it into 5 coins. Maybe two at most. Because when one of five rises you don't win a lot.

Haha why is that a Mcdonald's hat? That logo must be ask first before using it to any apparel. That's the joke. Not necessarily for McDonalds, but for minimum wage.
That's for making me understand this joke, it took me 5 mins to understand on what really it is. A joke you have to explain, is not a good joke.. |

Hello, if you don't feel safe doing business with a newbie, keep in mind that my account was hacked, you can see all info about that in my previously opened topic. I'd like to implement some kind of escrow, like a trusted user or a a website. Second option is you website stays on my hosting until you pay. I am a Web Dev and I mostly work with Wordpress, I can't make a full fledged WordPress theme if that's what you need, but I can modify a theme with CSS/JS to an extent. I go cheaper on the pricing when paid with crypto, because I know you like to HODL. I also sell web hosting, price usually about $60 per year or equivalent to a cryptocurrency of your choosing. If you want a lot of bandwidth or storage, price is higher. Portfolio site is currently in the works, but I'll link a few of the websites I've worked on: multishop.mk gvglive.mk traviti.mk destinations.mk There's more, but those are the ones I'm most proud of. A simple Website + Hosting would cost you around $130 or the equivalent in a cryptocurrency of your choosing, without hosting, it'd be around $100. If you want me to work for you, here's how you can contact me: Telegram: lakimensEmail: lakimens@hotmail.comDiscord: lakimens#8782 or you can contact me on this account on the forum. |

Are they creating a new forum software from scratch? There are plenty of complete solutions..
By the way, I can't access beta.bitcointalk.org.
Yea seems to be down. I believe they were building it from scratch, using frontend frameworks, etc; but I could be mistaken. You can check here: https://github.com/epochtalk/epochtalkThat seems like it would be a pain to get it working, so I'll wait for them to publish it. They did have it working at some point, so I'm assuming they've have it back up soon. If not, and I get the free time, I might just clone a demo onto my site to test. Please link if you do. |
