Down 24% now... seems like an overreaction.

No overreaction.

Check my link. They disabled xmr withdrawals. Binance is doing a major theft right now.

No I mean in terms of the negative price action. Could be a buying opportunity. I read your thread and don't understand the specifics but I will research them.

This is off-topic but yeah that is definitely nuts. Its a major blow to the spirit of cryptocurrency in general. I understand they want to be in line with whoever's regulations, but still... Sad that this is what its come to. At least they are still available on Kraken and KuCoin. Bitfinex as well apparently. Down 24% now... seems like an overreaction.

If you pay that forum any money whatsoever, you are dumb beyond belief. OK so granted I'm including being greedy as part of being dumb.

It's a clear scam. They will close up shop as soon as they have received the desired amount of funds. Guaranteed.

spell check and grammarly are just less shopistacated ai.

Spell check is allowed
grammarly is allowed.

there fore ai is allowed.

Spell check does not use any kind of AI. It simply applies existing spelling rules and does not learn or adapt. Regarding Grammarly,

https://www.contentellect.com/grammarly-review/
Quote
Grammarly is an AI-powered writing assistant, not a complete AI writing tool. It won't be able to replace a writer or generate ideas for you. That being said, Grammarly is one of the most advanced AI writing tools for accuracy and quality.

That's the difference. Grammarly only fixes what's there, using "AI" to apply grammar rules. ChatGPT comes up with its own ideas, which are often incorrect when it comes to complicated subjects like the technical details of bitcoin. Therefore it poses an inherent risk for people who come here actually seeking knowledge. It also encourages laziness and social detachment. The only difference between ChatGPT posts and shitposts is the former have better spelling & grammar.

This whole season I used a service that offers a NFL plan, payable only via a modest amount of BTC (they accept no other form of payment, not even Dogecoin, lol), and it worked extremely well. Even for the Peacock wildcard game -- it was 100% glitch-free. For the reasons Heuristics explained, I am hesitant to share it here b/c I'd like to use it again next year, but feel free to PM me and I'll send you the details.

There's usually one or two free streaming services out there, but yeah they do change URLs a lot, and are sub-par quality compared to the one I used.

I have found even more cheating and AI usage from this user. He is double dipping in signature campaigns by making nearly identical posts from an alt account. owengtam09 is his Full Member account and YuginKadoya is his Legendary rank account.

Here they make the same reply from different accounts, several days apart, and with the wording rearranged.
...

I'd say the fact that they both use commas to end sentences is very strange and lends credence to your theory. The posts you reported by owengtam09 should definitely be removed, and they should probably be banned. It annoys me that people can make a living by posting straight-up trash from several different accounts.

Additionally, YuginKadoya has been evading a ban for years:

OKX to support Doginals, other inscription standards in marketplace

The integration process begins with the Bitcoin token standard, SRC-20 (Stamps), allowing users to view and transfer different inscription standards. OKX Wallet plans to incorporate ARC-20 (Atomicals), DRC-20 (Doginals), and Runes by late February.

Concurrently, the OKX Marketplace will integrate these standards, enabling the purchase and sale of DRC-20, ARC-20, and Runes inscriptions without fees.

Some interesting prop bets in this Sportsbet Super Bowl contest:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5484002.0

The few that pertain to Taylor Swift are anybody's guess. Also it was the first time I ever sought to know the average length of the National Anthem in a Super Bowl. Perhaps the funniest one is the last: what color will the Gatorade be that gets dumped on a coach's head. Seems like the Chiefs would have red gatorade (I'm leaning toward them ATM), and then maybe the Niners would have red gatorade as well.

Here's me imitating ChatGPT while answering your question:

Certainly! While its true that theymos has yet to make a definitive statement regarding the use of ChatGPT on the Bitcointalk forum, several moderators have expressed independent opinions on the issue. Such opinions include regarding ChatGPT-authored posts as spam, as non-conducive to the forum's overall environment, and even being contrary to the ethos of an online forum.

It is important to remember that viewpoints of the staff may change without warning, and you should always check their recent posts for policy updates. It is essential to conduct one's own research on such an issue before taking actions based on the information provided in this response.


I just made a post quoting Chat GPT and I don't even know if that was following the rules.
As long as you mention the source (as you did) and properly format it you shoulnd't have any issues.

Yes. Quoting ChatGPT is fine. Its only a problem when people try to pretend they are the ones who wrote the material & want to take credit for it.

For example, I would much rather see this:

...
CHAT GPT SAYS THE FOLLOWING after my below prompting to it after I searched the proccess of signing one's bitcoin address since I have never actually done so nor knew the potential risks assumed once done:


"Would signing that message in any way compomise the security of the private key? What are the drawbacks to doing this for ones security both of their keys and of their location?
ChatGPT
Signing a message with a Bitcoin address does not directly compromise the security of the private key, as the key itself is never exposed or transmitted during the signing or verification process. ...

Than this:

I think Bitcoin is a dynamic and evolving digital asset, subject to price fluctuations, regulatory developments, and technological advancements, as of my most recent knowledge update in January 2024.

Just something duplicitous about taking credit for stuff written by somebody/something else. It shouldn't be tolerated or we will soon be overrun by it.
492  Other / Meta / Re: Report plagiarism (copy/paste) here. Mods: please give temp or permban as needed on: February 04, 2024, 01:37:35 AM

First of all, I don't have the power to ban anyone, and you're lucky that some moderators don't see obvious AI copyposting as plagiarism (yet).

Second of all, you clearly lied about the text being your own post. Who writes like that? Your "most recent knowledge update in January 2024"... Only ChatGPT does that. Yet here you are trying to pretend those are your words  Cheesy

So its hard to believe anything you have to say from this point going forward. If you want some real advice, I recommend trying to be more human in your posts.
493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: February 03, 2024, 01:34:29 PM
@nutildah. Are we very much similar on being in the Roman times where the rulers distracted the people with gladitorial games and chariot races?

Actually thats not a bad metaphor. Except NFL doesn't actually kill people (not on purpose anyway) and Joe Biden doesn't give thumbs up or thumbs down whether the Chiefs win the Super Bowl.

And I've noticed a crossover between those who believe in flat earth or moon landing conspiracy theories and those who believe the NFL is rigged.

Its true that NFL helps keeps people in line, but I prefer it to Keeping up with the Kardashians.

I feel like UFC is probably closer to gladiatorial combat. For some reason NFL is just more fun, anyway.

Clear use of chatbot services that should result in a ban right away.

User: kuriboh

Copy:

These are my own writings now how do I know someone else is posting the same give a link to any other post that matches my post. How can you be sure that this is a copy or plagiarism post of mine?  I can say with confidence that my post is not plagiarism. I do not post plagiarism.

So you received a knowledge update in January 2024? What was that like? Did they put a plug into the back of your skull like they did in the Matrix, and all the sudden you are equipped with all this new knowledge?

This is exceptionally dumb and you should definitely be banned.

Good lord this thread was buried 4 pages deep today..a sign of the season coming to an end which legitimately does make me sad lol.  I'm kind of like Hunter S Thompson in this way (very famous author, wrote Fear and Loathing Los Vegas and others).

He was a big Raiders fan and indeed wrote some interesting takes on the NFL, this being one of my favorites:

https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/story?page=thompson/040727
Quote
Sean Penn called me last night and said he was quitting the movie business until after the football season.

"I am going on the road with Brett Favre and the boys," he said. "The Packers will kick ass this year, and I want to be part of it. I love Brett Favre."

His voice sounded strange, so I goaded him.

"The football season has been cancelled this year. The White House just announced it."

"No!" he shouted. "That's impossible! Football season will never be canceled in America -- not in an election year. There would be riots."

"Exactly," I replied. "Horrible riots every Sunday afternoon, in cities all over the country. Football fans will go crazy. I already feel the Fear."

It's true, but not because of our football season being canceled. No. We must have football. What would this country be without football in October?

That is a dangerous question, so I try not to worry. Only an imbecile would alienate every football freak in the country at a time like this.

Would the President do a thing like that?

Who knows for sure? He is already muttering about "postponing" the whole election, and that is almost as ugly as canceling a football season.

All the new activity is because of this, and Doginals pixel jpegs:

Last year, the emergence of DRC-20, which was inspired by Bitcoin’s BRC-20 standard, served as a major catalyst in network growth, ultimately causing a massive spike in Dogecoin’s transactions amidst a bear market.

"Network growth"... aka spam. Hasn't done jack for the price. Just a bunch of degen vandals who will soon leave a bloated blockchain in their wake after they move on to the next thing.
497  Other / Meta / Re: If I'm Satoshi Nakamoto How do I prove it? on: February 02, 2024, 02:37:22 AM
Satoshi built Bitcoin for the 🌎, for the people.  Look there are over 1 million digital assets and still growing.  Even if Satoshi sold his entire lot of 1 million coins it would definitely not be enough to "crash" the markets.

It depends on how he went about selling them. He could certainly crash the price at least temporarily by placing a market sell for 1000s of BTC at a time. The fallout would be greater than your average whale manipulation as these are Satoshi's coins, after all. Everyone would be speculating that maybe he knew something that nobody else did.

Plus the moment his coins are moved, we're all gonna know about it. The price would likely drop before he ever got a chance to sell even 1 BTC.

Barring some major catastrophe - like a hidden backdoor in Bitcoin's cryptography - its true that the market would eventually absorb them and the normal price trajectory would resume, this time minus the unknowns imposed by Satoshi's Stash. It could take years, though. Who knows. With any luck these are dead coins and will never move.

Napa check din tuloy ako ng messages from Coins.ph, meron din pala ako natanggap na dalawang SMS Jan 16 and 18 about VIP pero ngayon ko lang nakita kasi kapag mga ganitong messages ay iniignore ko lang talaga. Pero magkaiba ang content kung titingnan ang dalawang magkahiwalay na SMS pero related daw sa trading fees at yung nauna namang nag post ng screenshot ay related sa airdrop. Nakatatanggap lang naman ako dati ng SMS from Coins.ph kapag na detect na nag login ako sa ibang device, nag cash out via Gcash at pag nag deposit.



Actually I got this as well and I signed up for it. Its legit. But one week of no trading fees isn't really that big of a bonus. Supposedly they are reimbursing me for transfer fees, but so far I have just received about 120 pesos from them in return. That's OK, better than nothing.

No but really its a pretty good show. Seems like it was forever ago.

I'm currently watching Yellowstone as they brought it over to Netflix. Nobody ever stops to think about Cowboys and Indians in Montana.

Again, only 1 winner correct, but I still lost my bet, doh. Ravens got toasted and it really wasn't even close. Lamar Jackson wasn't terrible but he let too many important plays slip through his fingers (minus the one where he caught his own pass).

SF/Detroit was a much better game. Lions looked like they were gonna win all the way up until the middle of the 3rd quarter. Then things started to go sour for them.

Brock Purdy, 49ers QB, proved he can really play well under pressure. This gives me confidence in their ability to beat the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

Line is currently SF @ -2. Will be interesting to see if it shifts at all before the day of the big game.
