Yeah this is not rare. I saw my twitter account which I had used for some bounties at one time to be used in some unknown users application form. But since there is no way to stop users from copying other users there is nothing that can be done about this.

Besides if the manager does not probe and check them then it is mismanagement from their part.

Imagine someone signing up on a twitter bounty with my twitter account as applied since it has 5k+ followers (shabby I know). There would not be anything posted on that account to complete the bounty at all because I am not using it to. So essentially they are getting into the campaign but not getting paid anything.

These little kids think that they can get away with anything.

I mean the user has a Type1 Flag on his face and some negative feedback. Do you not even check anything before you trust someone with your money or do you think the trust system here is so broken that dirtbag scammers are going to go scot free after being know to be scamming?

If you are so careless about trades in this forum then nobody can help you.

BTW telegram messages are not considered as proper proof but only circumstantial or even less.

Majority are, and then the numbers reach upto 99.99% we can easily say "all".

The word "good" is relative. We dont see bounties paying out millions of dollars to every participant. While that if happening would be called a "good" bounty by any hungry bounty hunter to someone else that might not be the case. Some users are so foolish even today that handing them out some tokens of zero value and false promises is going to fetch their trust and they will endlessly shill that project. Regardless of whether the project is a failure or a scam.

Nobody does that though. Majority of the hunters here are from low income countries and they dont bother to check the "Scam Accusations" section of this forum. Neither they do they want to learn how to detect scams.

Also the point what I said in the first line, it ends up being a goose chase so they hunters try their luck on every bounty essentially spamming all of them and getting zero worthy tokens in return or worse, none at all.

Cheaper listing fees are always with DEXs and not CEXs. Like Binance has been known to ask for fees of the range of 4BTC and then when the backlash came from public they say they are giving it to charity.

Use the DEXs that the above users suggested. But also keep in mind that users always prefer ease of usage so ask your users who are using that token about their choice too. Like if you are from a team then ask in their social media groups.

This will prevent a backlash that happens with some specific fanbois of certain exchange asking the question "Why not "this exchange"?" Although not everyone can be made happy but you can at least do a survey to make sure everyone gets their chance in putting their vote.

Give it some time. Changes to things that we are used to move us from out comfort zones and initially become difficult to take it but it grows on you with time. I have seen FJ since the days when the even older site was functional in pre-2016 era. The one after that was even better and the new one is another step.

This happens with every user on the older site as well. Some specific time of inactivity automatically logs out the user. I am not very welll versed with it if it just happens with specific browsers on Private Browsing or to every browser.

You do something for free and then you start raging that the person whom you did it for should be expelled? Sounds logical?

Its about time some of the bounty hunters understood that running after bounties is a waste of time now. If you want to get paid get a job or gain some skills and apply for jobs in real life.

Again merit sources are partial towards those who have been spamming the bounty sections. However we have many users who started as bounty hunters but became well known/well awarded with merits in the longer run. Why not strive to be someone like them?

Anger will not get you anywhere. But it is normal to be angry but this is a reminder that no payment that is worth enough money is ever promised for a project specially because the altcoin market is another pump and dump to larger scale and coin offering are non-legal securities - it is not even worth calling them securities at all.

You will not be getting any sympathy from other users here, rather more bashing that you should suck it up and move on. Sorry to say but it is true.

I guess you have nothing else to do but wait.

It reminds me of the waiting for transaction confirmation on other wallets in case you use a lower fee. Here it is the opposite side.

But of course for coinbase this can be a sort of customer dissatisfaction issue. Not sure how they handle such cases by just telling them to "wait it out", but from the perspective of a person who is less knowledgeable for blockchain and transactions this can be a panic situation.

Are the fees fixed for coinbase transactions? Because I use desktop wallets only. If this would be the case then I think it will help users tag the wallet addresses personally as "Username - CB wallet" or otherwise so it will save time and hassle.

For a second I thought you were in trouble, You really didnt need that though, there are users ready to help with info.

You can trust some users on the forum to do paypal exchanges but yes it is at your own risk and I know that is sounds a circle back to square one in terms of fiat vs crypto but hey, your needs are having higher priority than some ideology.

Many ICO projects actually did set up bitcoin debit cards but they all had the same problem : users have to buy their services and get a card, give their KYC and use it. Gradually they have lost importance.

It is better to verify yourself and check with your bank so you can sell your bitcoins on exchange and use that to fill up your bank balance and use that.

A "faucet" for trial like play money is good enough but gets medium importance to me. Some users who are developing bots and trying to run homebrewen strategies might like it. Did you get that name from the faucet dispense of crypto-games?

The UI looks good but just an image will not do, lets hope that the beta version will be made available for testing out in near future.

What are the deposit/withdraw options available? Are you going to register yourself as a business somewhere? It is a DEX I assume for now.

Seems minimalistic - which is not a bad thing. But some traders like to have all sorts of indicators in one place so you might face some backlash from them, might want to keep some room for that.

Overall I think it looks good but trying out the real thing would bring out more suggestions from users.

One of the reasons why some investors get burnt is that they lack the patience to focus on one sector and do jumping around to other sectors hoping to make profit everywhere. It is fine as long as you know what you are doing and have experience in that. For your case I take it that you were less experienced in forex.

Biased statements based on personal opinion.
The same statement would be the reverse for a well versed forex trader who tried their hand in crypto. Understood my point?

Fact that both types of trades exist means that both markets are profitable but is not for everyone.

The false notation of "Mine is good, yours is bad" is a exaggeration of biased opinions based on short term outcomes and should not be used to draw conclusions.

Why does it seem to you that some exchanges are not fully decentralized? Is there some evidence to back your claim, if so I am sure everyone would be willing to dig into it.

While a certain compromise may be done on part of the exchange but running so would be unethical or against their said terms. I agree that token swaps are the thing but then we have no other choice in the platter. If you want to simplest bitcoin<>altcoin change then a CEX is better in terms of both liquidity and ease but bad in terms of trading fees.

No trading fee would mean no earning for the exchange. They need to reap some profit otherwise they are going to go bankrupt.

Electrum does not give update notifications on opening the wallet does it? I said so because the OP says this:

Which is why I asked. I hope it was not the similar case and that OP has not lost any funds. But I would be hoping to hear from them again about whether the problem was resolved or not.

Just posting my opinion here, not trying to make someone look bad.

There have been trusted users who are raising money for donations - this is not a bad thing as long as you trust them. Point is that I believe in Karma. If they are scamming then they will be punished because the donators are giving in good faith, that is the least we can rely on.

It is like similar to the unspoker rules of the internet that "Every user on the internet is male unless you know them in real life" , similarly if you know them, well and good.

However I have never been a supporter of donations for poor. I have always followed the ideal of "Teach the man how to fish and he will feed himself". Giving money to someone might make you feel good but it does not solve the problem.

Anyway, the ones who are organizing these charities, good luck to them. It is the choice of the person donating to trust them or not. If they are making a wrong decision there is no way to find out easily, nobody forced them to donate anyway.

I guess it is fine to post some topics of generic interest in this local board. Because the number of new topics here are pretty low and the discussion is also very small. It helps get some new posts and generate some activity here which is the only way to get some merit distribution done.

I mean I feel bad seeing users younger (in terms of forum years) come here and already have reached legendary worth merits while many others still stuck. Their local boards are getting very high degree of merit cycling. #feelsbadman

Are the funds intact? There was previously a hack which allowed a false message inside the electrum window to appear and prompt the user to install a new version which was actually a malware created to steal your money.

You can read about it here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5090097.0

If you didnt get such a message or you installed the new version on your own then you should be fine. Again if you have not been able to restore the wallet.dat file you need to remember your seed words to help you restore it.

That friend of yours probably did not tell you what part of the TOS they were breaking in the first place. And you didnt bother to ask because, hey they are your friends right?

Mostly money laundering. I will not be impartial to hitbtc here, even though they have scam accusations. This can happen on any popular or less popular exchange.

Do not launder money or break their TOS.

That is a topic for another thread.

Every CEX will ask for KYC one day or another. Small cap traders whose daily traded volume is <1BTC should not worry about it.

DEXes dont ask for KYC but they are more risky to use in terms of getting hacked or seizure by authorities.

The image does not show the individual coin balances.

Is that what you have on bitcoin? If so then that is the only value of coins that you can withdraw.

Please post a proper image balance of the balance if you need help. Otherwise you are trolling here with a partial image.

The point when you sell needs to be predetermined before entering.

If you are hoping that a certain asset is going to get 10% gains, then once it does sell it. Dont think twice but sell it. To keep things as minimally traumatic to your brain, you can follow this process too. That is also how bots process information.

Next, if you are buying something for a long term gain, you have to predetermine the lock in period or a maximum gain at which you will be satisfied at the profit figures.

So basically two things are to be kept in mind - time period and profit percentage.

Point is also not to get greedy and keeping your expectations down to the ground. This is more possibly seen more in the fiat markets than crypto but applicable to both. No specific indicator is there for knowing when to sell though. You have to over-smart the market psychology.

The reason the list was made as similarly done with escrows, campaign managers, trusted lenders etc is to make a specific thread listing all those who are trusted and have been known to deliver quality service over time.

There is no specificism or favoritism here as to only these users are the ones or so. That is your wrong way of thinking which nobody can correct unless you understand that on your own.

Of course there are other people willing to be designers. I am sure if they gradually make a name for themselves the users who maintain the thread will be willing to add them to the list.

@OP if you are a designer yourself, be professional and stop the childish attitude, would you like if your customers would see this thread, your delusional way of thinking and make an opinion about you? You are very likely going to lose some gigs which you should have been able to complete.

Behaving professional on the internet does not take much effort.

I would say that an SEO expert would be better to handle this. There are traders and investors on twitter but these are mostly the low to mid-cap traders apart from retail investors. Bigger names in venture capitals do not waste their time investing on stuff promoted on twitter or so because they know that majority of them are worthless with time.

What they do to raise capital is sent prospectus to the bigger capital funds and set up a meeting where they discuss a lot of under the table deals. That is how the "advisors" are taken in. They have a lock in period and they will sell their coins after that. It is bad for the market but good profit for the bigger funds.

Another point is that social media buzz is often manipulated and inorganic, so the real engagement ratios might always be fake. Proper growth of a project happens through development and proper marketing, not just ad placements.
