Seriously though, it turned out it wasn't a good idea to share this data, so I'll remove satoshi (and 400,000 other users) from my list.

Why was it not a good idea? Maybe just remove satoshi?
4402  Other / Politics & Society / Re: 'Trump Designates Antifa "A Terrorist Organization"' on: July 12, 2020, 01:52:22 PM
Yet that is exactly what you do when you assert my premise is not true. Your argument consists of

"These facts aren't true because these other independent facts over here exist."

That is the post YOU shared BTW, and didn't even bother reading the Wikipedia link you posted. This is your source.

Your disconnect from reality seems to have kicked up into the next gear.

On another note:



You're definitely the one who shared it. Let's break it down:

"This is convicted terrorist Susan Rosenberg" = ok, I have no problems with this part; she was part of a terrorist organization, she was convicted of a pretty serious crime, and that is her.

"she sits on the Board of Directors for the fundraising arm of Black Lives Matter" = not true.

"She was convicted for the 1983 bombing of the United States Capitol Building, the U.S. Naval War College and the New York Patrolmen's Benevolent Assoc" = none of this is true.

So to be fair, its 1-for-3 in terms of truthfulness, which still renders it generally untruthful.
4403  Other / Politics & Society / Re: 'Trump Designates Antifa "A Terrorist Organization"' on: July 12, 2020, 12:44:27 PM
[Shes not a terrorist! She was only convicted of having hundreds of pounds of explosives! Don't look at that though, look over here away from the inconvenient facts and look at the squirrel over here.]

You denying Thousand Currents directly funds Black Lives Matter doesn't magically make it cease to be fact.

The weird thing about this is I literally said none of it. I was merely pointing out that the "facts" stated in the post you shared were incorrect.
4404  Other / Politics & Society / Re: 'Trump Designates Antifa "A Terrorist Organization"' on: July 12, 2020, 11:56:56 AM
The charges were not dropped, her sentence was commuted, which is only an ending of a prison sentence, not remedy from guilt. She was still convicted and guilty of terrorist activity.

The bombing charges were dropped, contrary to what was stated in the post you shared.

https://www.nytimes.com/1990/09/06/us/3-radicals-agree-to-plead-guilty-in-bombing-case.htm

Quote
Bombing Charges Dropped

As part of the deal, Government prosecutors agreed to drop bombing charges against three other members of the leftist group who are serving long prison sentences for possession of explosives.
...
Lawyers said a Supreme Court decision in May in a New York case on the issue of double jeopardy figured in the Government's willingness to drop the charges against the three other radicals, Susan L. Rosenberg, Timothy A. Blunk and Alan Berkman.

Also, Thousand Currents isn't the "fundraising arm" of BLM. So, the post you shared remains wholly incorrect.

4406  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Evoxes - fake team members! on: July 12, 2020, 08:19:03 AM
Definitely a scam. From the website:

Quote
10% Daily Staking

Example:
You make a deposit to the staking wallet 10$,after the end of 5 days you will receive 15$ back to your wallet (10$ your deposit and 5$ your % for staking)

Min deposit amount - 0.041 ETH | 0.00038 BTC | 1900 Dogecoin | 5$ Payeer

Max deposit amount - 0.19 ETH | 0.0019 BTC | 8900 Dogecoin | 49$ Payeer

Each participant can activate the staking only once,which means that you cannot re-make a deposit

The withdrawal from your staking wallet will be made automatically in 5 days

What's funny is they "gift" you with a free 0.03 ETH. Of course you can't withdraw it or do anything with it.

Here's another Ponzi aspect:

Quote
Invite a friend and get 5$
Terms of participation in the promotion:

Your friend/referral must activate the staking (make a minimum deposit) and after activation,you will receive a bonus of 5$ to your account. Also,your referral will receive an additional 2$ to the wallet from which he made a deposit to activate the staking.Bonus funds withdrawal is available without restrictions and at any time

I did run a VirusTotal on the URL and it came back as "clean," so its just a run-of-the-mill Ponzi / fake wallet scam. Who knows if they would ever pay anybody anything. Tagged.

On another note:


A quick fact check:

Susan Rosenberg wasn't convicted for any bombings. She was convicted of possessing more than 600 pounds of explosives in 1984. The bombing charges were dropped against her in 1990. She served 16 years of a 58-year prison sentence.

Also, she doesn't sit on the BLM's "fundraising arm" board of directors. She is the Vice Chair of the board of directors of Thousand Currents, "a non-profit foundation that sponsors the fundraising and does administrative work for the Black Lives Matter Global Network, among other clients."

Hi guys update ko lang kayo na puwede na magtop up ng GrapPay points via Coins.Ph, just tried it and ayun pasok na siya. Mas madali ng makapag lagay for grap pay points and no need credit card. Same like paymaya and gcash na puwedeng pambili ng grab points.

Ah, perfect. I just checked this thread to see if anybody had used this feature yet as I use Grab all the time. Glad to see that there's no fee.

Then I just have one more question: do you guys know if M Lhuillier is open on Sundays? I know here the LBCs are closed on Sundays, don't know if its because of covid or if its always like that. Thanks.

Whether other members of this group may still be active in this forum will we probably never know, nor is it so important actually.

Maybe he already came Back and left again.

ps Its kind of ironic - I got emails from Satoshi in 2008/2009 about
hashcash & inviting comments on his paper, and to try the alpha
software; the irony that I invented the hashcash function all the
CPU/GPU and ASIC miners are burning 40MW on and yet I dont own (nor
ever have) a single bitcoin.  What a foolish person Smiley Surely I
should've tried it out mining at the beginning like Hal Finney did.
Well I'm going to fix that via mtgox & an asic miner but there's no
way I'm going to get to Satoshi's $100m genesis hoard level as a late
late player Smiley

OK thanks Hairy. I don't quite understand what you're talking about, but I appreciate your response.



The forum is so harsh that even satoshi has been banned.  Shocked  This is mistake?

Dark. I think you might like it.

definitely dark

I did watch the first episode about a week ago, and then watched the second last night. I can tell its a slow-building show. It looks promising, will try to watch the 3rd one tonight. 8/10 on IMDB is pretty darn good.
4412  Other / Off-topic / Recommend me something on Netflix on: July 10, 2020, 01:47:35 PM
I'm celebrating having good wifi after months of not having it by watching a lot of Netflix. I've seen a lot of stuff but am always on the lookout for a good show / movie.

Let's see, someone in the WO thread recommended The Platform not too long ago. I watched it, and it was quite good. To give you an additional idea of my tastes, I've also liked the following from Netflix:

Black Mirror
Stranger Things
Z Nation
Black Summer
American Horror Story
Rick and Morty
Trailer Park Boys

What else is out there on NF that I might enjoy? Movies or shows is fine.
4413  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin network knowledge poll on: July 10, 2020, 12:26:42 PM
For reference to future readers (I'm not sure how often you update the poll), the question is:

"If you don't run a full node and validate your own transactions, are you actually using Bitcoin?"

The whole premise is a bit snobby. Not everybody has the capacity, bandwidth or time to run their own node, nor should they have to in order to "use Bitcoin."

If you use a private key to sign a transaction that gets sent to the network because you initiated the transaction, you are using Bitcoin. Arguably people who use services like Coinbase or other custodial wallets to send bitcoin are "not as" using it, but they are still using it.

The people who voted "No" are like the DJs who think you aren't a real DJ if you don't spin vinyl. If you use any sort of sound system to mix one song into another in front of a crowd, you can get paid as a DJ, or people can refer to you as a DJ without controversy. To complete the analogy, people who use custodial wallets are like DJs who use completely automated mixing systems and don't even bother to wear headphones.

already verified myself with shasan, can also provide my pms that i am trading only via private messages and also using sebastianju escrow only with private messages. no problem for me. i am myself and i can prove that easy Cheesy
edit: i don't have and i don't need other accounts than mine. and it is funny i wasn't around so many months and being attacked by random newbie.
it is fun how you saying i am someone else, consider even after almost year using this forum, seems like i know less than a newbie Cheesy
it was hard for me to find the flag but you are familiar with everything around joined yesterday.
can you please share with us your other account?

shasan has nothing to do with this anymore, and mentioning another semi-inactive escrow is definitely a bad sign, as is throwing out a bunch of confusing sentences that have nothing to do with anything.
4415  Economy / Services / Re: [ANN] SebastianJu - Legendary Escrow Service - Escrowed over 8150 BTC on: July 10, 2020, 11:20:40 AM
There is another scammer on the forum who seems to be impersonating SebastianJu on telegram.

Don't ever do escrow deals on telegram!

Wait for SebastianJu to respond to you here on the forum from his actual account before entering any deal where he has been named as escrow.


If you don't follow this rule, you will be scammed.
4416  Other / Archival / Re: OldSamurai is an alt of scammer/fake escrow impersonator Boombl4 on: July 10, 2020, 03:51:47 AM
I think you are on to something here.

Another similarity is the spelling of the word "Tittle"

Tittle says it all.

As tittle says.
Payment BTC/PP

He's also obsessed with escrow (despite only ever doing 1 trade) and doing deals on Telegram.

I will support your flag and consider tagging him if some more evidence should come to light. I went through his posts and I can't find a single on where he leaves a telegram name. There is 1 BTC address but its kind of a dead end.
4417  Economy / Reputation / Re: Request Support (or Opposition) for Flags here! on: July 09, 2020, 02:58:59 PM
Please support this flag to avoid any future scams.
Flag link - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=2128

Reference - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5260941.new#new

Here's the problem with your flag: you weren't actually scammed by Boombl4 (were you?). You should have opened the type 1 flag which is a yellow warning flag. The other 2 flags are for people who had an agreement with and lost money to a scammer. No doubt he is a scammer and he deserves the red flag, but you're not one of his victims (from what I can tell).

You can still open a type 1 flag if you want, in which case I will gladly support it.
4418  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinfirm? Coinbase hack on: July 09, 2020, 10:59:00 AM
I would see if Coinbase will help you get in touch with Binance, as all the funds ended up there.

1CosBm5Yf6zLAShP3PdsVgbu3rF2jVxP7S is the Binance deposit address which belongs to the hacker.
1NDyJtNTjmwk5xPNhjgAMu4HDHigtobu1s is the Binance hot wallet.

Binance has been willing to work with people who have lost money to hackers before. Neither side may be willing to help for such a small amount of BTC (by their standards), but its better to start with them than a 3rd party service (never heard of Coinfirm).
4419  Other / Archival / Re: user Boombl4 is a SCAMMER using fake bitcointalk monbux escrow to fool people on: July 09, 2020, 10:04:22 AM
What's this then? Just some kind of coincidence?

Recently I  was scammed by an Monbux Escrow impersonator in Telegram.

Seller  is a member here.
seller contacted me via PM and started conversation in Telegram.

Once deal for purchase of 4 miners was finalized Seller contacted escrow in telegram.

Telegram info:
My ID: @BTC_Explorer
Seller ID: at time of sales negotiation:   @boombl3
          at time of this post:               @aseksa
Escrow ID:                                           @monbux

BTC Payment made to Escrow TX:

a14cc8b0104e1764ede138966f054252b924bab6f50a9add520a5016652ebef8
91a6383be3625c4d696c651c0cecf8017dacc0e122c92c308576eb222185ebf1

Total BTC lost: 0.18426

I have sent PM and email to monbux on May 18 and received reply today that the Telegram escrow was impersonator.

The Impersonator in Telegram is still active and contacting me every day that i need to send him 0.1 BTC in order to get refund . According to him this is the escrow rule. Members here can elaborate if that is the case.

Monbux should reply to my PM and emails promptly.  This is how he wants to be contacted according to this thread.

To all members here Please do not try to engage any Escrow without properly following the contact methods outlined by the respective Escrows.

Trade Safe.


You had a good run but its come to an end. See you in your next incarnation.
4420  Economy / Services / Re: [ACTIVE] Monbux's Escrow Services | Since 2014 | Security Upgrade | Legendary | on: July 09, 2020, 06:51:54 AM
Hello, so I've been trading from a person on telegram named @visesento (he is the scammer). We both agreed on the deal, 1000$ movocash for 350$ btc. As we both were unsure about trustness, he offered to hire Monbux. We both wrote an email to him, asking if he can help us to trade safely. Provided details, offer and our telegram ID's. He (@MonbuxBitcointalk) created telegram group within like 10 minutes. Then, where my lack of knowledge occured - he sent me a PGP signed message, which I checked on keybase.io/verify :

(snipped)

What happened was the scammer sent a signed message that was already in the keybase of the real monbux.

The signed text actually reads this:

Code:
{"body":{"cryptocurrency":{"address":"1Q2CupiU5DfWupRGBQ66QYRqvxoNxGZCcn","type":"bitcoin"},"key":{"fingerprint":"4a9aa15044a68891085cba95fe28a8b97bac8955","host":"keybase.io","key_id":"fe28a8b97bac8955","uid":"4eba68153623310300502fc55ab47300","username":"monbux"},"type":"cryptocurrency","version":1},"ctime":1411319918,"expire_in":157680000,"prev":null,"seqno":1,"tag":"signature"}

It was signed in September 2014. I suggest you only deal with escrow services on the forum and not Telegram going forward.

There is a Scam Accusation against this user here (I have forwarded your post there already). If you need help opening a red flag on this user to alert other forum members that this guy is a scammer, let me know and I'll show you how to do that.



The real @monbux should change the title of this thread to INACTIVE and lock it as scammers pretending to be him have now stolen far more BTC than he made acting as an escrow during the last 2-3 years.

If you ever receive a Telegram message about using monbux as an escrow, it is a scammer! The person you are chatting with is a scammer, and the person pretending to be monbux on TG is a scammer.

Do you see any mention of Telegram as a method of contact listed here?

Contact Methods

(in order from most effective to least effective):

1. Bitcointalk Private Message
2. Posting on this thread (if you do this you should also send a PM)
2. Gmail: monbux.bitcointalk@gmail.com

No! He doesn't deal through Telegram. Also, he won't email you first. So if you receive an email from monbux out of the blue, it is 100% likely to be a scammer.
