At this point do you think the incentive is large enough so someone in the supply chain has included in hardware, eg in Apple silicon or similar that looks for and sends crypto-sensitive info back?
eg screenshots, privkeys, passwords to unlock encrypted wallets, keystrokes, copy buffer or something.
Eg even if you turn the wifi off it stores keystrokes and compy buffers are stored and set or similar.
Or it is written to a USB that you plug and that usb broadcasts when it has a chance. Eg, the same supply chain provides borh.
is a solution to use a pi and tails? or similar.

there is some funny business going on here.
NXT and Peercoin serve as reminders as well as the dumpage from master coin in maid safe at the expense of BTC holders.
It seems there is an infinite dump on XEM at the moment.
My read is they are maeking make it too unstable to buying and collecting at the price now.
Then they can buy up really cheap having made their money before snapshot and either dump or hodl at no risk being in profit already.

There are multiple ways to unlock an iPhone without passcode or face Id but I am sure it can't be done with basic details like name and IMEI number. Or am I wrong? He handed his phone over to a third party and left it in their possession. Maybe he unlocked it in the shop and his PIN was seen by a staff member or recorded on their CCTV. Maybe he used fingerprint unlocking, which is completely stupid since his fingerprints are all over the phone and could be cloned from the phone itself. Perhaps there is some vulnerability which means they can bypass his lock screen. Perhaps they installed some malware on it. Who knows. If you ever put your phone in for repair, wipe it before you do and wipe it when you get it back. It's the only way to ensure your safety. No I was very careful to lock my phone before I gave it over, still a brain failure though to do so. anyway, I went back and said I had my phone number and imei really wrong (not just one digit), to some other guy working there and gave them completely wrong ones. I saw him enter them into his system overwriting the old details. So it seems to be ok. I think they were taking them because people were coming back with a "broken" iPhone screen after they had repaired them and were trying to get a second one reparied for free.

XEMUSDT perpetual contracts with up to 25x leverage. https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/b132dae5b04341459d8209f29b90c202That's a risky bet, there's a good chance of getting squeezed. A little over a week and Symbol launches. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/symbol/I will hodl both XEM and XYM. Selling XEM or XYM post snapshot is shortsighted. NIS1 will be actively developed. https://nem.io/join-us/NIS1 will be open source. Coinbase listing is imminent. https://www.coinbase.com/price/nemThe main benefit of holding is the passive income. +delegated harvesting +earn staking rewards with stakedXEM +earn 5% roi with a supernode +watching the marketcaps expand After the snapshot XEM price will correct, the ones here for the freebie will be very eager to sell. I don't think we will return to the 2019-2020 price levels. Those days of 5 cent xemmies are gone. Overall the XYM airdrop will grow our community and bring awareness to NEM. wait you mean NEM will be independently developed to XYM after the airdrop?

So I gave her my name and my phone number but a fake IMEI (out by a few random digits as I read them out) My experience of these places is that they ask you to unlock your phone or remove your screen lock PIN/password/biometrics when you hand it over to them. Did you do this? If you've handed your unlocked phone over to them, then they can already have your IMEI and access to your 2FA codes. Is it possible with a Name and Phone number and IMEI to fake your iPhone download google authenticator, or authy, and get into your Binance wallet accounts? With a name and phone number, they cannot replicate your Google Authenticator, but they might be able to replicate your Authy if that's what you use. Authy store all their codes on their servers, and so if someone can convince Authy they are you (perhaps by spoofing your phone number or executing a SIM swap attack) then they could access all your 2FA codes and therefore attempt to hack your exchange accounts. This is the main reason you should not use Authy. If you ever hand your phone over to anyone else for repair or anything else, then you should export all your data to a backup and then wipe it before you hand it over. Do you also have exchange apps such as Binance on your phone? Do you also have an email app that is always logged in to which they could have received password reset emails? Ok so I have disabled that phone as a trusted device for my wallet app. I have also taken out the email password so that the phone no longer knows or store the email password on the apple server. They did not ask me to unlock the phone, infact I made sure it was locked before I gave it to them

Ok so I went to get my iPhone screen repaired at one of those smaller shops (not apple).
After repairing my Iphone, with a new screen the lady asked me for
my Name
my Phone number
my IMEI
I Said why? she said for our repair records.
So I gave her my name and my phone number but a fake IMEI (out by a few random digits as I read them out)
Is it possible with a Name and Phone number and IMEI to fake your iPhone download google authenticator, or authy, and get into your Binance wallet accounts?
Can they get all the apps downloaded that you have on their faked phone?
Does this seem really sus? for what reason does she need that info.
Will I be safe having given a fake IMEI?
I had a total brain fart I usually never give out details.

This stuff can be pretty important because it can set a precedent that the other side can just "assert" you have a large bitcoin holding when you don't which would then become a common tactic if it gets up.
Prolly worth a go fund me appeal or some such. A precedent that put weakens the balance of probabilities needs to be shut down

the main problem with the BETI as I mentioned earlier in this thread is it needs to account for the dilutional effect of all other crypto's
A rough real BETI would be BETI x BTC market dominance.

So I am trying to understand who holds the slashing power in the Polkadot system.
[1] What bundle of people get to decide to slash a nominator and how much.
[2] How do these bundle of people come into power and who are they what quora is needed
[3] or is it all done by an on-chain contract?
IF [1] and/or [2], then, what stops a court order forcing them to slash all stakes at 100%?
(I add the people could be jurisdictionally diverse, but still doable if the number in enough co-operating jurisdictions are high enough).

Then the simple answer is amazing, what answer you wanted?
If Bitcoin will reach $100K it will be one of safe haven asset (e.g. gold) since the price is high and have huge trading volume, many people will hold bitcoin to get ROI and Bitcoin will be adopted in many merchants.
Bitcoin will never be stable since it's not a stable coin, it depends on demand and supply... the price will changed every second due to volatility.
And Bitcoin will never fail to zero, at least it still have a value even got crash.
Bitcoin will be stable when it is the denominator, eg everything is calculated and paid for in BTC. Then it will be USD etc that are seen as widely fluctuating

Musk was involved with paypal, and has access to a lot of high tech and high tech advisors.
Why then was he so late to support BTC?
|
|
|
99% of everyone who was going to sell or short was obliterated in, 2011, 2013, 2017, 2021, and just then.
This is why I think maybe a lot of 'BTC' on exchanges are fBTCTM f= fake, so fakeBTC
There just are not enough sellers left to push the market down in any meaningful way.

|
|
no.
because there is no way to trade successfully.

One thing I will say,
Whenever someone says I am not competing with X, they are.
Polkadot is clearly competing with etherium.

Bitcoin can go to any price any time.
If you don't go in with that mindset you're pretty much screwed.
I went into it accepting my BTC could go to zero.

we will see a shakeout in the 20's but I don't think 42K was anywhere near the next / this bull run's high.
As usual, you face too many risks upside converting to fiat, sure you could double your position on a 50% down, but you don't know when the 10 x of is coming and if you miss out waiting for the dip, then your 5x behind, never to buy in agian.

So I think even if FUD, the tether story has sufficient noise in the net to affect the price.
I had been expecting tether to die a few years ago. The fact that it hasn't is plus in my book that tether is legit.
HOWEVER
the fact they have not been audited makes me think they are fractional reserve.
I also think most exchanges are fractional reserve in crypto.
In fact, except for signed addresses/crypto and dex/uni swap every other financial instrument is fractional, it's just a question of how much.
We have faked USD chaseing faked btc, so it should probably even out, excepting that real BTC is likely undervalued
I kinda wish tether would just go, take the BTC hit an carry on. However that's just wishful thinking, a new FUD will be invented and the cycle will continue.
Every Epoch will have its Gox.
