Social media platforms like X is no longer to be trusted these days; even discord. X and Discord feels like the easiest to be compromised these days
I knew risk of social media and if we only rely on social media accounts for important information, it is wrong at the start. It's only time when nightmare will come with us.

You see, I recommended in my post that visit the official website is a first step, then social media. Or you can follow those services' social media accounts, just to get notifications. After that, you must verify those notification information by visiting official websites.

Quote
it takes just 1 link from a compromise account to screw a lot of users not to mention the influx of scammers on X that appears like the real thing or organization only to be scammers with phishing URLs. I almost feel for one yesterday even though I'm very security conscious. It's a miracle these days not to fall into any of these scams.
People only need to have basic knowledge to protect themselves from scammers. Sometimes they have knowledge but carelessness and greediness harm them.

Discord & scammers. Check user IDs and user colors of strangers send you PMs

Don't trust all information you received through email. Because if something is big, it will be announced on the website, social media accounts like X, blog and emails.

We must check information in emails with other channels and see is the information in email matches with other sources. If not, it is like the email is a phishing one.

Because you receive the email, you can check your email address with https://haveibeenpwned.com/

If Trezor allows you to change your email address, and if yours was pwned, changing that email address to a new one is helpful.

Poor Thomas Tuchel he surely realized if he lost another game he would be replaced for sure, that is why he is under a lot of pressure right now or maybe he already has seen the news that Bayern Munich has already talked to Xavi Alonso for a potential comeback to Bayern Munich as a new coach for Bayern Munich in the future
Tuchel was hired in the last season to help Bayern Munich in Champions League when Bayern Munich did not believe in Nagelsman even the club got acceptable result in Bundesliga. Tuchel failed with Bayern Munich in Champions League and only won Bundesliga with a late goal in the final match day. I don't see that title as an convincing one from Bayern Munich and Tuchel only got luck to win it.

In this season, even with Kane who is making a lot of impressive performances in Bundesliga for Bayern Munich, Tuchel fails to help the club dominates the league. It is another failure of Tuchel even in Germany league and with this poor result in domestic league, it is unrealistic to think he will be able to help Bayern in Champions League.

Many projects on Twitter have been copied with different twitter handle but same name, and the next thing you will hear is they are doing giveaway
It possibly comes from policies of X under Elon Musk which give more friendly conditions for scammers.

I see a new trend of scam. When I follow an X account, some minutes or hours later, there will be one or two X accounts which are impersonating accounts, will follow my account. Like you share, those accounts have same display names like the account I followed.

I guess they try to do this to make me confused between official account and impersonating ones, as first step to find victims for their scam later.

Not surprising to see these two teams leading in the Serie A because Juventus in the team they are not racing in tournaments like the Champions League and while they have many good and strong players in the team with a good coach, they also had good times for recovery and Inter Milan is the same team they were in the final match of the last Chmapnis League and they are still in the good format even after losing some palers like Lukaku. I think even Juventus can win the race against Inter Milan if they use the possible opportunities from the mistakes of Inter Milan.
It is only true with Juventus because they don't play in either Champions League, Europa League or Conference League. However it is untrue with Inter Milan because this team actually played in Champions League and they will have two matches in round of 16 against Atletico Madrid, a club from La Liga.

Inter Milan have been showing their strength and unbelievable stable good performances in Serie A even they had to decentralize their player resource for Champions League as well.

Juventus only have to play in Serie A and Coppa Italia and their players have more recovery time than Inter Milan players. In a long season, if Inter Milan continues to go farther in Champions League, it will become big advantage for Juventus.

I think that your question and the answers of others revolve around bitcoinCore, which we can say that the first developers were Satoshi and Martti Malmi, and after that the developers contributed to the open source code, which was not on github, but rather http://sourceforge.net.

The rest of the developers came after that
Rest developers are like Gavin Andresen who left the forum and joined other projects too. He talked about Bitcoin in front of CIA. Gavin was fooled by Roger Ver and Faketoshi Craig Wright but his contributions for Bitcoin in the past are undeniable.

And gmaxwell who is still here and developing Bitcoin Core.

429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 23, 2024, 05:47:21 AM
Girona is one of the new forces in La Liga, their impressive performance is of course not something that happened by chance, but they have made quite good preparations from various angles. I think Girona will become a new force in the long term because this team is a team that is part of the City Football Group where they have a majority stake.
They have a beauty season and are making a lot of impression in La Liga but it is too soon and not enough to say Girona already or will become a new powerful source in La Liga.

I don't know what ranking will be an ending one for Girona but to become a new powerful force in La Liga, they will need to have some good seasons. Girona will have a difficult summer next months and I don't believe they will be able to keep their best players after the summer transfer. If they lose best players, we can easily imagine how Girona will play in a next season.
430  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying houses with BTC on: January 23, 2024, 01:34:44 AM
I have recently watched a video where the guy says that it is safer to buy a house with BTC (and other cryptocurrencies) than buying through one real estate agent.
You must make the trade with Escrow because I am sure a trade to buy a house is a big one. Without Escrow, you will take very high risk and potentially might lose your BTC but in return no house in your ownership.

Use Escrow.

Because value of the trade is big, make sure you wait for some confirmations like 6 or 10 confirmations before consider that on-chain transaction is 'completed' and safe enough to complete the house trade.

How many bitcoin confirmations is enough?
Quote
1 confirmation: sufficient for small payments less than $1,000.

3 confirmations: for payments $1,000 - $10,000. Most exchanges require 3 confirmations for deposits.

6 confirmations: good for large payments between $10,000 - $1,000,000. Six is standard for most transactions to be considered secure.

10 confirmations: suggested for large payments greater than $1,000,000.

Use this tool to calculate risk from 51% attacks with different hashrate and number of confirmations.

432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 22, 2024, 08:30:28 AM
It is true that Liverpool showed a very good performance in this match and their consistency still looks the same and has not changed. Without the presence of Mohamed Salah, they were still able to win the match against Bournemouth and the team worked together very well to score a goal, even though the opponent looked very easy for Liverpool.
It's not easy for Liverpool but Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez brought them to a winning in the meantime to wait for Mohamed Salah to come back. Good performances of Jota and Nunez are very good for Liverpool and can help them even Salah returns. Only Diaz seems to have a disappointed match and he needs to score some goals to get his confidence back.

Quote
This victory certainly makes Liverpool very hopeful that they can maintain their position at the top of the standings while maintaining a points distance from Manchester City.
Manchester City very likely will win their match and reduce the difference to only 2 points less than Liverpool but this winning, at least Liverpool completed their job well.

Quote
If Liverpool want to win the title this season, they must really maintain their performance and playing consistency, so they can maintain their victory and maintain points to stay at the top of the standings.
They completed their task well and only have to wait for result from Manchester City's match. The competitor actually creates a lot of pressure on Liverpool and with impressive return of De Bruyne, Liverpool will have to be more careful with each of their matches as Manchester City can take over a first position if Liverpool have one or two bad matches.
433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: January 22, 2024, 01:55:31 AM
Al Hilal is now in first place and is the only team that has not been defeated in the SPL, even without Neyamar, Al Hilal remains consistent. So losing Neymar is not a big problem for Al Hilal. I also think Al Hilal is not thinking about financial losses because Neymar can't play because they are a team that has a lot of money.
Al Hilal can play well without Neymar and they can end the contract with him without big effects on their squad and performances. Keeping him and paying him lucrative salary while they don't get appearances on field from him, is not smart money use.

It makes sense if Al Hilal makes this big decision which can shock some people but with me, it can be expected with Neymar's physical conditions.

If the player is a little different, it's not only money that is wanted. what's more young players and careers are still long. that's why top players are still young and star players have no interest in playing in the Saudi Arabian league. For example, Mbappe was offered a very lucrative contract and was not interested at all in playing in the Saudi Arabian league.
Young players and players who are at golden times of their career will feel so hard to leave Europe and join Saudi Professional League. Mbappe belongs to a second type of players in this example. With latest rumor that some players want to return to Europe, Mbappe will have more reasons that moving to Saudi Professional League is not a good decision for his career.

I believe Mbappe will not move to the league but still unsure what club he will play for in a next season, PSG or Real Madrid, we will have to wait for some more months.

I did not see any notification from MEXC to do KYC. No notification that they turn to mandatory KYC now.

An unverified account has withdrawal limit like this.
Quote
Current Withdrawal Limit: 30 BTC in 24 hours

Complete the verification process to increase your withdrawal limit

Two KYC levels: Primary and Advanced
Quote
Primary KYC
Increase your 24-hour withdrawal limit to 80 BTC

Personal information

Advanced KYC
Increase your 24-hour withdrawal limit to 200 BTC

Personal information
Facial recognition

It is bad if MEXC did shady things to liquidate user positions to get benefit for their exchange. If it is true, they will lose customers to competitive exchanges soon but they might not die.

In the past, Poloniex in 2017 and 2018 made many shady liquidations but their exchange still operates in 2024 but losing their leading position. Now with the owner is Justin Sun, I don't believe in Poloniex and did not use my account on that exchange for some years.

Roma winning Hellas Verona was a welcome achievement for Danielle De Rossi who just took over the managerial role for AS Roma and with the fact that he developed most of his career and talent at the club will make him to give in his best in other to achieve positive results with the club and considering the fact that lots of people were doubting his competency when he was appointed as Manager for AS Roma after Jose Mourinho was sacked by the club's management but with this impression that Danielle De Rossi has created, possibly he can do well for the club as their new manager.
The race is very hot and tight as from Fiorentina to Napoli, there are only 3 points in difference and Roma now are only 2 points less than Fiorentina. I feel happy for Daniele as he got a first winning with Roma but honestly I am very skeptical about his ability to bring Roma to a happy ending in this season.

People have many reasons to doubt about his ability as a coach after his failure in the last season in Serie B and with this situation of a very competitive race in Serie A. It's very big challenge for Daniele even he came back home and took this mission because I am sure he won't be able to refuse this call from Roma.

I think it is a big deal that AS Roma won against Hellas Verona especially for Danielle De Rossi who is now the manager of the team. De Rossi has spent a lot of time playing for Roma and has gotten really good there. So he probably really wants to do well as the manager. Some people weren't sure if he could do a good job when he first became the manager after Jose Mourinho left. But this win shows that De Rossi might be really good at his new job. I think he can lead AS Roma to success.
Daniele De Rossi can help Roma to win a match or some matches but he won't be able to help Roma to win a battle or title. It's different than Jose Mourinho who could help them to play in two final matches in UEFA Conference League and Europa League and won the Conference League.

It is anyway a good debut for De Rossi as a head coach of Roma. Welcome home, Daniele and congratulate him for a first winning as a Roma coach.

o_e_l_e_o already posted his last post and locked his thread. It makes sense to don't dig into reason why he announced about it as he already limits what he can share with us.

With my respect to o_e_l_e_o, this thread should be locked too. You can PM him as he posted he will keep replying to some last PMs before he sends a request to theymos for locking his account.

I've got a few more PMs to send over the coming days, but this will be my last post. Farewell everyone. Smiley

I also saw another thread in reputation board about him and I see that one should be locked too.

You agree with me or not, I will not reply about this because it potentially causes more drama that I don't want to see.
438  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? on: January 20, 2024, 03:20:55 AM
Are there still people who ask this kind of question ? like don't you have Google in your devices? google is your friend and if what you read about him isn't enough you can go find him yourself and when you do so help me say hi!
Google is very powerful search engine but it can not answer all questions. Because they only have power to collect available information and even a stronger engine like ChatGPT, AI only can summarize information they have.

If Satoshi Nakamoto joined and left without trace, there is no available trace for Google, ChatGPT to give us an answer about identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

Quote
I keep wondering why people still wants to know who Satoshi is when they have heard that he disappeared for over a decade now and yet governments can't find him. Is it just an individual that is supposed to know him? Well I don't really care to know him but since I'm using his invention I only got to appreciate his work than ask questions that don't have answers.
I am quite sure that every beginner in Bitcoin market will be very curious who is/ are Satoshi Nakamoto. It is very normal curiosity because if they are responsible with their capital, they will have that reasonable question.

This question is only abnormal for people who were already in this market for some years and still need to know identity of Satoshi Nakamoto or they only try to bring this question back to the world, to fud the market.
439  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 20, 2024, 03:16:12 AM
It was unexpected that Almeria could draw 0-0 against Girona even though they played to a draw, but it was a good achievement for Almeria considering that the two teams were very far apart in the standings.
Before this season start, Girona was not considered as a candidate to win La Liga and it was normal to consider Girona and Almeria at similar level in quality. Anyway this draw, after Girona's impressive performances so far in this season, is actually a shocked result for all.

Though Girona have beaten many predictions and gone through more than a half of season with a ranking in top four and even managed to stay at the first and second position, I really believe sooner or later, they will fall down in ranking. This draw is a temporary disappointed result but their fans will have to prepare for more in rest matches of the season.
440  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: No one has gone broke taking profits, always take profits. on: January 19, 2024, 10:26:46 AM
I started learning how to trade and my teacher just told me this advice that no one has gone broke taking profits when trading.
It is true but to take profit, you must be taught to cut loss and to exit your position if the market goes bad. Because in trading, with a trader, initial capital is most important. If you can not protect your initial capital, you will not be able to get profit and soon will get broken from trading.

With discipline to enter and exit the market, and with priority to defend initial capital, you are on a safe trading way to gain profit.

One of best weapons in trading.
