4001  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [Scam alert]Pre-sale Paypal token ads on facebook on: February 10, 2022, 04:09:10 PM
Unfortunately, you will find that some are victims of this type of scam because they are present on Facebook (if it was scam, the platform would have removed it) and because it bears the name of a well-known product, which is PayPal.
Report it directly to the PayPal/Facebook and they will delete this content quickly due to the ease of checking for scam.
Unfortunately, the survival of such sites for a few minutes is enough to make some believe in such cheap scams.

Your guide is good and appropriate. You just need to do some formatting and it will be perfect.

The funny part is that you haven't put any link yet ---> blockchair.com.
The features of this explorer are:

 - TX statement[1]: Just as explained above, you can get these same features for the wallet.
 - Anonymous portfolio tracker: you can track your portfolio without using any third-part apps.
 - Tor features: to enhance privacy, most explorers do not enjoy such privacy.



Does anyone know if there is a way to add the exchange rate for a country that does not exist or to modify fiat exchange rate (some countries have more than one exchange rate VS USD.)

4003  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: QR codes vs NFC in Bitcoin Wallets on: February 10, 2022, 03:14:58 PM
At the moment, QR codes are the most popular because most phones can read them more than NFC tags.
The short range of NFC, which is currently 1.5 inches, may not give it an added advantage in Bitcoin transactions, but it is better in terms of sharing data and bank card addresses.

Perhaps the only downside to QR is privacy but most of the time they are addresses for making payments, these addresses are not private.

anyway i think we should compare NFC with Bluetooth Low Energy
4004  Economy / Economics / Re: Impact of Bitfinex hack on the economy on: February 10, 2022, 01:48:05 PM
The issue of arresting them does not seem logical because hackers have technical knowledge that makes them keep that money in cold storage instead of this method.

Bitfinex was hacked by two Israeli brothers, and the people in question are just trying to launder that money - although there is no doubt that there is a connection between them - but those who devised the hack are still two brothers, one of which belonged to a special section of the Israeli IDF army.

Perhaps this story is more logical because I think hackers are smarter than that in general. Let's wait for more details, because it seems that what happened may be a coincidence or related to another case.


What impact do you think this will have on bitcoin price if the total seizure were back into circulation?

It will not have an effect. On the contrary, the effect will be positive. The seized money often takes a while to return to the platform, and after paying taxes and others, the matter may settle from one to three months.
Thus, when it is pumped into the market, the price may have gone up already.

I can't find any ecash wallet that isn't web wallet or centralized wallet please if you are mining ecash kindly share me the wallet you are using I have an ASIC that I can use to mine as many as possible ecash coin.
If you have been following Bitcoin for a while, a hard fork has taken place to produce BitcoinCash, which also had another hard fork BitcoinCashABC aka ecash.

Electrum wallet is an open source wallet and has been well reviewed, but ElectrumABC[1]'s version has not been reviewed like Bitcoin version, although it is open source and looks good in general.

you can also try https://viawallet.com/ which is another good option.

about Mining it you can read this ----> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5144362.msg57585522#msg57585522  or PM @philipma1957 he has previous experience with mining it and may help you (be nice when asking)

The problem lies in how to prove the physical activity and ensure that it is not tampered with, in the end either you will trust certain sensor devices (and thus the currency will be central) or you will trust any sensitive device (each sensor has an error standard and may increase or be manipulated) and so the activity The physicist would be useless.

The best you can have is an interactive game in which data is recorded in central servers, validated and then individuals are rewarded with dollars or cryptocurrencies.


The verification will be done through visual and audio recordings and converted to nft, ai will verify activities. I need a qualified coder who is able to code such a algorhitm.
+ What is the role of NFT tokens here?
It is not an algorithm, but an interactive platform.
4007  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Need some marketing strategy on: February 09, 2022, 02:28:14 PM
Hello!!
Seems this question is quite childish but it's reality that only project and development can't lead in market. marketing is the most !!

As you mentioned, marketing is an art and therefore you need to hire a specialized person to achieve success, just as if you were looking for qualified developers or an integrated team.
Think of it as the sides of a triangle. If it's not perfect, you won't be able to succeed.

We cannot give you ideas because marketing means spending money and of course spending money means a short-term and long-term strategy that needs proper planning, the tips we will give you will not be ideal for developing such strategies.

so please provide the best suggestion of marketing, promotion, advertising and different platforms. except bounty campaign !!!

Nothing is impossible or beyond in marketing. Therefore, any way to make profits is possible and acceptable.
Remember: you will not be successful in marketing without money unless it is something unique that will change the world or solve a real problem.
4008  Bitcoin / Legal / Russian gov agreed to regulate crypto like currencies, not not assets on: February 09, 2022, 01:49:03 PM
From this newspaper that is nationally distributed in Russia: https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/5206307

The Russian government and the Bank of Russia have agreed to regulate cryptocurrencies like currencies, not assets

before February 18, they will prepare a draft law on the circulation of digital currencies in the Russian Federation, in which cryptocurrencies are recognized as an analogue of currencies, and not digital financial assets (DFA).

Their circulation in the legal sector will be possible only with full identification, through the banking system or licensed intermediaries. Operations equivalent to more than 600 thousand rubles must be declared, transactions outside the legal sector for such amounts will become a criminal offense and an aggravating circumstance under the Criminal Code, fines will be introduced for the illegal acceptance of cryptocurrencies as a means of payment. Mining and related issues of DFA are not affected by the concept within which the project is being prepared.

The government, after meetings with Deputy Prime Minister, Chief of Staff of the White House Dmitry Grigorenko, published the approved "Concept for regulating the mechanisms for organizing the circulation of digital currencies."

The details of the "transition period", as well as mining, are not discussed by the concept.

Sorry, I did not quote the text above, but the topic published by u/dimitrisnikolaou is worth reading, so I advise you to visit the link for more details.



It seems that what is happening here is huge and bigger than El Salvador's adoption of bitcoin as a currency, people still need to KYC but that may not include HODLING (buying bitcoin and not using it for several years)
4009  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BTA.lk - Official unofficial Bitcointalk short links on: February 09, 2022, 01:37:57 PM
I like the idea and I have a few suggestions:

 - Add the username: for example instead of https://bta.lk/user/3 you can use https://bta.lk/u/satoshi redirect to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3.
 - Add archive: This can be done using userscripts but it will be amazing if you add /archive or /arh such as bta.lk/t/178336/arh or bta.lk/t/178336/archive
 - List of important topics: such as bta.lk/t/SatoshiFirsttopic or bta.lk/t/rules or bta.lk/t/reset_account

You have a problem with the link at the end of the page https://bta.lk/ It redirects to Bitcoin Core 22.0 Released

Please check it out and would appreciate any feedback on how to improve it.
https://bigbear.cx

Does the platform provide proof of payments? Address signature to prove that you own those coins or PGP[1] signature?
Who are you and what guarantees that you will not speed money?
How do you ensure that both parties are honest, meaning that you are not hosting a messaging service.
Why is everything done centrally? Meaning why not have a multi-signature address so that users can release money without you.

4011  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin from the economic perspective on: February 09, 2022, 12:51:01 PM
This benefit will not be achieved unless:

 - State buys a few bitcoins
 - Sets laws to track currencies, thus ensuring tax collection and the absence of any tax evasion

All is good, but it needs some acceptance from politicians and expenditures in infrastructure, which is something that is contrary to the current financial trend that is managed by central and commercial banks.

The best that many governments can do is classify cryptocurrencies as assets and thus be able to impose high taxes on them (income tax and exchange tax) or even accept to pay taxes using those currencies.

The increase in popularity among the population and the possibility of using them just like stocks will facilitate the acceptance of them by countries as legal tender, although I expect them to be used as a store of value and for trade exchange between countries.
4012  Economy / Economics / Re: Perfect solution to keep markets alive and pump going on repo idea on: February 09, 2022, 12:36:52 PM
What is the point of that, there is no direct correlation between interest rates and Bitcoin? This may be understandable for treasury yields, forex trading, etc., but bitcoin is more likely to look for support/resistance points than interest rates.

Second, how much ROI will you achieve? 5% to 15% at best (without leverage) This fluctuation is normal in Bitcoin.

Finally, we are still on the upside season and the possibility of a return to levels of $70,000 is still valid, so it is better to stick to Bitcoin during the next 3 months, especially in February.
4013  Economy / Economics / Re: Fungibility on: February 09, 2022, 12:15:48 PM
Money should not be classified as "clean" & "dirty," but rather the activities from which the money comes and then it is confiscated to the government and returned to the citizen again, meaning that the dollars you spend may have been traded to buy drugs or porn.

Therefore, the classification of currencies per se as being clean or dirty is not accurate, but rather the classification of services.
As for the high-transparency cryptocoins (Bitcoin)  because you don't need KYC to use it, UTXO is good and then mixing services must be enhanced so that it becomes impossible to trace those coins.

We have also seen some cryptocurrencies that focus on privacy, such as Monero, or add privacy features, such as Litecoin[1]. Creating a decentralized exchange may solve this problem.

4014  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto mining isn't for everyone. on: February 09, 2022, 11:24:53 AM
Don't venture into mining if you aren't prepared for long term mining and holding, don't even bother to buy equipments if your electricity bill is extremely high, a real miner is someone who is always ready for the dry season and rainy season, if you are a newbie and you don't know much about mining please do research on the advantages and disadvantages of crypto mining first.

Mining is linked to strategy and seizing the opportunity, as you need to balance between short-term and long-term profit, and the possibility of mining more than one cryptocurrency for the same device, it is science and depends on a little randomness (luck), so it must be accurate.

The most important thing is to recover the capital, as soon as you put in place a solid plan to recover the capital, then you can risk mining as the cost of electricity for the return will be very small.

Therefore, the first 6 months to year are the most important, especially in Bitcoin mining, and then as soon as you can recover the capital, you can take the risk in the future.
4015  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto-Currency in Africa on: February 06, 2022, 03:10:51 PM
Statistically, about 80% of inhabitants in Africa can't access Internet plus high cost of devices.
I don't know where you got these stats from but you need to update your information on internet coverage in Africa.
It has increased since 2019, and most of the countries that make the Internet coverage rate in Africa low are in number, but many countries have coverage of more than 50% and the indicators are increasing.

https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/IT.NET.USER.ZS?end=2019&locations=ZG&start=1990&view=chart

Some financial services have succeeded in that African country, and therefore I think it is time to add a dimension of digitization, especially since many African countries are open to this technology.

Digital currencies & cryptos will contribute to changing these countries, but the resources that these countries possess, with the absence of infrastructure and with the large area of ​​the continent compared to the population, we expect more positive adoption during the next 10 years.

4016  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How is my new website? Coinmarketcap killer on: February 06, 2022, 02:29:40 PM
If you want to k!ll CMC, it is better to present a model that differs from it with some new features.
To make it easier for users and for promotional purposes, why not prepare an infographic that explains all the technical details of the difference between CMC and coinriders.com.

The site is clean and the interface is good, but I prefer:
 - A list of new projects to be expected after being reviewed by specialists.
 - List of price differences between platforms.
 - The possibility of creating an account to track the balance.
 - View transfer fees

if you add the ability to display charts like cryptowat.ch, it will look great.
4017  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Legit Btc Mixer/Washer wanted on: February 05, 2022, 04:34:52 PM
There is no legal mixer because the mixing service is based on anonymity, which is something that many governments do not prefer and do not give anyone a license to make tracking money more difficult.

There is a reliable blender/mixer and the reliability comes from that they run a profitable business that makes them not think of scamming you, and therefore the longer the blender is and the fewer technical problems, the better for the average user.

Most of the members here recommend Chipmixer, they have been working since 2017 without any unsolved technical problems.

you can check if Binance link is offical using ---> https://www.binance.com/en/official-verification
Unfortunately, Binance manages several domains besides the dot com domain and therefore users will find some problems when the site is official and different from the .com domain.

Generally, scammers try to find people who do not have any technical experience.
4019  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What's a pleasant way of marketing? on: February 05, 2022, 03:00:36 PM
Marketing is a science and an art and therefore even if you have done everything well, you will need some art (thinking outside the box) in order to make a profit.


NFT tokens are hybrid now and a lot of hype around them so it is easy to gain followers and many sites have excellent programming interfaces that allow the user to create and manage tokens without technical expertise.

 - In short, like any project, there is a risk factor and you need to manage it in order to make a profit.
 - Any delay may not be beneficial and rushing may mean wasting money.

You are now entering an area where you need to prove the allegations above and then people can ask you about the rest of the details.

Providing all you can of proofs, previous projects, experiences, etc. is necessary, especially when you are doing this from a newbie account that does not have any experience history.

It is the same as applying for a job, you need to present your previous experiences and experiences and then enter in the previews and then get the job.
