Mainly because they want to avoid stuff like this that happened yesterday. You may say it's not a big deal, I can wait later to get my money out, but it may happen when you need the money asap, like it happened to one of my friends yesterday. He planned to pay for some service which was important for his business, but he couldn't do it for hours, delaying the work for a whole day.





So yeah, not a smart thing to use Coinbase/Binance or any other centralized exchange to store your crypto. At least not a big amount, and especially not for too long.

Yeah I warned him that what he is doing is not the right way. Looking now at his post history, seems like he did use quotations properly from time to time, so I guess he either became lazier, or simply wanted to appear more knowledgeable than he really is and squeeze more merit.



Wouldn't he first get temporary ban, if its because of low quality posts? Since he got perma banned, I guess he forgot to include links for some of his topics


Pretty much this; they get merit couple of times, and then they start doing all kind of shady work, skipping using proper quotes because then it would be obvious they just copypasted majority of the text.

One of the examples of that is his topic Privacy while making use of Bitcoin for which he got ~40 merits. At first look it seems like he wrote that topic using his own words as there are no quotation marks whatsoever, while there are some reference link at the bottom.  If you check it bit more thoroughly, it is obvious that topic is a combination of his own words, paraphrasing and direct copy/paste, but it's mixed up all together in a way that it looks like his own words. So no wonder that he continued with that practice as he saw it works and brought him tons of merit for not too much work.


edit: @lovesmayfamilis thanks, sorted.

It's funny that those two are among most popular bounty managers. It makes you think how competent other bounty hunters are when those two  are creme de la creme of bounty world. It's no surprise that bar is set so low as that has been the the case for the whole altcoin scene, from the top and creators of shitcoin projects to lowest in the chain, bounty hunters.

Then again, it's maybe just a case of zero fucks given as they are not paid enough to work hard, or they know that if they eliminate bounty cheaters client might be unsatisfied with the numbers.

Mislim da bi solidan broj ljudi ostao ovdje, ali razlika bi bila u tome sto nitko od nas ne bi bio jednako aktivan kao prije. Oni koji kazu da bi pisali slican broj postova i da se kampanje ukinu lazu ko psi. Bilo bi manje palamudjenja i ljudi bi pisali samo onda kad bi imali nesto za reci.


Takva je situacija i kod mene, nisam placen za pisanje ovdje zadnjih godinu i pol otkad sam u Best Change kampanji te mi ne pada na pamet zbog toga ne biti aktivan ovdje. Doduse, ne bih se bunio da se priznaju i ovdje napisani postovi, ali sta je tu je.



Sa ovim se slazem, mislim da bi nas lokalni board puno bolje podnio ukidanje kampanja nego engleski dio foruma.

Talking about managers, this is just another example of their negligence, at the expense of their client and all the bounty hunters who invested their time and made videos. Out of curiosity I took a look at the videos submitted by this bounty cheater, and it took me exactly 5 seconds to realize that all videos have been made by using voice generator, in various languages.

Few examples:
Name of the video in Russian, English voice generator. Nothing suspicious for our diligent bounty manager https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci0rz3owIDk
Name of the video in Portuguese, voice generator of some Asian language https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvtsafPMykY


It baffles me that @Murat decided to gave tokens to such a lazy attempts, and just proves that it doesn't pay off to do bounty campaigns as you will be screwed by cheaters, managers, or project owners. And in some cases by all previously mentioned.

I don't know whether you are fooling yourself (or trying to fool potential clients) but those shills are pretty obvious to everyone that has more crypto experience. I pop up occasionally in some of the Telegram groups that you mentioned and they are full of fake conversations in which various altcoins are promoted.

I mean, I have no doubt that you tactic can work on newbies (if done properly) the same way noobs listen to twitter influencers and random people telling them what to buy/check out, but it's far from unrecognizable compared to non-paid conversations.

First to ask you; did you take the profits, or you are still in those memecoins? I am asking because unrealized profits are not profits at all, and many fail at that part. I had the same issue couple of years ago, I simply didn't know when to exit shitcoin and take the profit, so I stopped with that practice.


If we are looking at last ~12 months or so, DOGE oupterfomed both BTC and ETH, but I think that will last only until bear market. Once we hit that, I expect it go below, as in  last few months DOGE lost 50% value compared to BTC and that trend will probably continue.

Vrlo vjerojatno najzabavniji SW jos od originalne trilogije. Cak i moja zena koja organski ne moze podnijeti SW filmove je gledala Mandalorian.



E bas sam to htio napisati, da mi je jedina mana sto sam imao osjecaj da su neke epizode bile cisti filler, bez da se ista pametno dogadja. Ali nema veze, serija mi je bila bas gust, jedva cekam novu sezonu koja bi trebala biti vani slijedece godine.

Dok cekamo novu sezonu, vrijeme ce se moci kratiti sa prvim spinoffom, The Book of Boba Fett koji bi trebao biti vani 29.12. Ocekujem hrpu ovakvih stvari u buducnosti ( vec su potvrdjene jos 2 serije) jer nije Disney bezveze platio Lucasu 4 milijarde dolara za LucasFilm  iscijedit ce oni SW svijet maksimalno.

McAfee  was wiling to shill just about any shitcoin that offered him enough money. Iirc, he even had something like "altcoin of the day" series of tweets in which he shilled one altcoin each day. So if someone offered him 10 BTC (when price was in 10-20k range) I am pretty sure that he would accepted no matter what kind of scammy shitcoin it is.

By the way, are you sure that you didn't confuse McAfee and Antonopoulos? I am asking because because he is the one that was offered 10 BTC to promote that ponzi scheme HEX and to help them appear more legit, which he refused of course.



Not just on Twitter, it's the same situation everywhere, but Twitter is probably the most popular (and efficient) way to promote. And basically everyone is doing it, both legit and scammy projects, that's just how it goes on the crypto market. The only difference is that legit project will give tokens that are locked, and released periodically (6-9 months) they  can't be dumped instantly, while shitcoins like in the OP example don't care much about that and will give their tokens under any circumstances.

In short, trust no one.

I don't see anything wrong with it, what is he supposed to do since he is paid in fiat? Take that fiat and buy BTC, and then do KYC on some of 3rd party service to be able to use their card and pay for groceries, utility bills and all other everyday expenses? He wouldn't accomplish anything beside loosing percentage of that money through various fees.


Using that logic, anything you buy as an investment is pyramid scheme, which is not true of course.

It's pretty much the same thing everywhere when it comes to the average age of Facebook user.


There won't be any big changes in that regard; Facebook app will still be called Facebook, it's just that parent company is changing name. So from now on parent company of Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp will be called Meta (instead of Facebook) and that's about it. At least for now.

Yeah I know, hence my comparison with Facebook as I expect people to stick to that name, instead of Meta. Unless they push it hard and invest shit load of money into marketing, something that Google didn't do (as far as I know).

Talking about changes, I heard that they already implemented some changes, as if you "Facebook" set as a workplace (for whatever reason) in profile bio, its changed to Meta. I tried to do the same, and it seems like its true; you can't set "Facebook" as a workplace anymore, you get message saying that name is not supported.

+1

Pretty much the same thing (AFAIK) happened in 2015 when Google changed the name to Alphabet as they were expanding the business. That name didn't stick though (at least I never heard anyone calling parent company "Alphabet) and I guess it might be the same thing with Facebook.

Dunno, maybe you are overthinking it, or setting standards way too high. If you have troubles finding good posts that don't have enough merit, you might wanna check your board's most merited posts and topics via @DdmrDdmr Merit dashboard, so maybe you can find some good posts that can be used for application. It's set at the last ~8 months, but you can adjust it as you see fit.

E i ja sam negdje izmedju, tj bilo mi je zanimljivo, ali ne mogu reci da je neka ekstra kvaliteta u pitanju. Fan sam juznokorejske kinematografije, pogledao sam hrpu toga u zadnjih 15-20 godina tako da sam vec navikao na preglumljivanje i patetiku koji su njihov trademark ali da, kvari ugodjaj.



Bas mi je jedan frend neki dan preporucio ovu seriju tako da sam ju stavio na watchlistu, gleda se sigurno cim uhvatim malo vremena. Pogotovo sto je na Netflixu pa nema zajebancije oko skidanja.

---

Sto se tice serija, trenutno gledam Seinfeld po valjda deseti put, sta cu kad se pojavila na Netflixu  . Ovaj tjedan je krenula i nova sezona Curb Your Enthusiam sto se isto ne prousta te gledam cetvrtu sezonu The Sinner. Nova The Expanse sezona (nazalost ujedno i finalna) izlazi za cca mjesec i pol pa sad kontempliram da pogledam opet prvih 5 sezona, ali tesko da cu stici pogledati 60 epizoda u tom roku.

Since I have a rule that I am not adding threads retroactively (and I see that those two threads are not active anymore), I won't add them to the list. Reason is simple; there are so many threads that were being bumped in the past and if I add each and every I ever come across, list would probably be five times bigger than it is now.



Yep, that's how it starts and we can expect more shitposts soon.

You are right, my bad. Still drinking my morning coffee

Numbers are down across the local boards and forum in general so what's happening in Phillipines board is not so different than in others.


It's sort of catch 22 -  There is a less merit shared in Phillipines board because people write less, but then again people often write less when its harder to get merit.


I don't know about other local boards, but we don't have anything like that in Croatian board. What we do have is a topic where we can report good posts, and those get the merit if they meet the requirements. So something like this in Reputation board.

Looking at his post history, that guy just woke up after two years break, saw that 777Coin is marked as "Open" and applied, without thinking much about checking what's written in the posts before his application. At least he is not wearing the sig.

Why not? I see it as another fail-safe mechanism, as even something stored offline can be lost/destroyed. After all, it's not like it hasn't happen already to bunch of people, even those that had shit load of BTC.

@grondilu an interesting topic, exactly at the time when I was thinking about some thing like that.
