But I don't see the downfall in using hardware that isn't prone to getting spied through ME or proprietary BIOS or other surface attacks. Sure, it is slower since it's older, but it's safer, a core2duo with 8MB ram should do the job.
You just contradicted yourself. Downfall: 1) Speed if you use very dated hardware. 2) Price if you use new hardware from manufacturers like e.g. Purism. 3) Trust in a 3rd party if you go with manufacturers that allegedly disabled those. At the end of the day you are going to need to run your own full node to broadcast your transactions if you really want to use bitcoin as bitcoin and not as something else in between paypal and bitcoin
To verify the chain, yes. To broadcast your transactions? Not really. You can broadcast to several services as well as some users nodes. and if this full node is in a machine that is blinded against all that crap then it's positive.
Again, whether ME spies on you or not is irrelevant. Your ISP sees your outgoing Bitcoin transactions. Sure, ideally I should learn how to sign transactions in an airgapped computer, but I still didn't learn how to do that.
That is overkill for any amount that you are likely to own. Putting all my bitcoins in a single paper wallet is dumb and i don't trust these ledgers and trezors.
Sigh. |

Because I need to build trust and this would be my first campaign, I'm able to do it for free.
The quality of free work is absurdly low. Although you really count that past experience as a must, I don't get why...
Anyone with more than a single grain in their brain, as well as basic knowledge of building a new business, will not hire monkeys. How do you expect new BCMs to do their job then?
There is absolutely zero demand for new managers of any kind. There's more than enough. |

0.035 is equivalent to ~$250, that's more than a full time salary in some low economic development countries. I wouldn't consider it whoring yourself out if that's the situation.
$250 is peanuts given the workload required for a single week of campaign. There are two options: 1) Manager is doing his job. 2) Manager is not doing his job. With such a low rate, the later is almost the case with 100% certainty. For a small/medium campaign this seems like a fair amount.
No. It is unlikely a large campaign is going to choose a new manager, so I doubt you've got competition to worry about yahoo.
There are examples of this. Take a look at the Waves campaign and their baboon CEO. |

It is strange that it didn't show up for Aleator
I read the link and the account is frozen
Ignore him. This is what is visible for everyone: Trust summary for Gimpeline
This user's email address was changed recently.
This user changed his/her password recently.

|

would you suggest for the newbie people like me, what should i do next about this?
Move on to a campaign that is not managed by scammers. |
|
|
|
Strange. to me it says
Trust summary for Gimpeline
This user's email address was changed recently.
What's strange about it? Did you not read the thread that I've linked properly? When your email is changed you get a notification. The trust summary always displays recent: a) Password changes. b) Email changes. c) Waking up from a long period of inactivity. |

What do you call "datadir"? the entiretiy of the "Bitcoin" folder? the "blocks" folder + "chainstate" folder?
The whole Bitcoin folder. So anyway from what I understood, it is a bad practice to try to divide the blockchain in 2 with symlinks or otherwise and I should keep everything inside a single HDD?
Yes. But this implies that the blockchain will grow slow enough to not be bigger than the current biggest HDD's?
No. You can use RAID, e.g. RAID 0 or Raid 5. For example a "Seagate Archive HDD 8TB SATA3" would serve me for years... assuming that Bitcoin manages to remain Bitcoin at 1MB blocksize.
4 disks of that kind would give you 32 TB in RAID 0, and 24 TB in RAID 5. |

I'll need some more time to review this case, but it looks like it's a positive report which would result in the manager and everyone related to the project being tagged.
helloo.... i believe that slowhand26 is innocent. please undo your red trust until proven 100%!! Did I ask for an opinion of a random newbie? I did not. 1. When he got banned, he deligated all to Dafar which he said all will be covered by Dafar and he has nothing to do with CarTaxi and PlayKey already. spaceman is from Italy and as I checked Dafar he's from Germany (based on his account)
You should have reported this back then. Dafar would have been instantly tagged for working for/with a criminal. And I immediately removed my participation to Dafar after I learned about his trust.
Yet you did nothing knowing that Spaceman was a known scammer.  |

I want to have my wallet on the full node. It wouldn't be a node that runs 24/7, just 20 minutes a day to keep it synced, in case I need to transact quickly so I don't need to have it opened for hours until it syncs for several days.
Any i5 or i7 laptop (gen 3-4 or higher) with an SSD. The major bottleneck in a laptop is going to be IOPS, thus storage. I highly recommend not using a HDD if you want it to be quick at syncing as described. I think 20 minutes a day connected to the internet in an a laptop that's made all of spyware free software and hardware isn't a realistic surface attack, and I would be ready for any forks instead of having to move your stuff from some cold storage device into the wallet (i dont consider anything but paper wallet or air gapped machine as realistic cold storage)
Either you don't have enough funds in that machine to make it worth attacking it by Intel, NSA & co. or you're using Bitcoin wrong (i.e. high amount on a online machine). If you're going to use this for most day-to-day transactions, then investing in "anti-spyware hardware" is a waste of money IMO. |

i have to add something.
the PM i received after i bought the bot was a link to a telegram group. but this was not a link to the group where the XT links have been published. i had to ask for a second invitation.
That's standard procedure. Not all customers are going to get access to versions that are not released, and using them is obviously risky (hence why there were not released yet). |

I was working with Spaceman until he got banned from this forum and deligated the job to Dafar (CarTaxi). So I continued my job with Dafar until this Dafar offered me to be his assistant as well to his other campaigns and of course 0.02 btc/week as starting with promised "bonus" isn't bad at all so I said yes. That's how I became assistant of these 2 who ruined my reputation.
You are actively supporting and working for: 1) Users which are banned. 2) Users which trade accounts. 3) Criminals. I just want to ask, with all my efforts, transparency to prove I wasn't part of their shady business, my account isn't an alt account of this Italian and German guys, will Mr. Lauda consider this and consider removing my negative trust after presenting all valid proofs?. Or will this be final and no way to remove it?.
I will change the description of my rating, but it shall remain negative given your malicious behavior. Do not PM me again. Thanks. |

Hello,
One of the forum members is willing to do some work for me. Website for my business + some other services. We agreed about $2500 in bitcoins. He needs 50% down payment. How can I use your escrow service in this case? What are the procedures step by step. I'm willing to pay 0.01 BTC fee for escrow. Please advise.
Well, the other side has to agree that this down payment can be escrowed. If that is the case: 1) Escrow sends a deposit address. 2) Buyer of service sends the required funds to said deposit address. 3) Seller of service starts work. 4) Seller of service completes work. 5) Buyer confirms work is as previously described/requested. 6) Escrow releases funds to seller.
PM me for more details. This thread is not for discussing specific escrow cases or deals. ~Cat |

Both Dafar and Spaceman_Spiff are now tagged (although the latter was already tagged for being a scammer). Also tagged. Anyone else? Dafar is still the bounty manager of ModulTrade!?
I'll probably tag the whole project soon unless they properly address the situation. |

Ok great!
Here is your escrow address : 1A3ADzXuzYMA4H6Ax9PJm7Tci5MYE3Tk2g
Send exactly 0.623 BTC
Lets me know once sent so i can confirm with Astro to start shipping.
Thank you all. not very clear to me, from whom did you get this message? The alleged "hacker" replied from OPs account to minerjones and included the very same account as the recipient. You can send PMs to yourself in case that you did not know. Interesting. Last Active: October 21, 2017, 04:07:23 PM

1) Whether you're being spied upon or not, is irrelevant when you're running a node that has no wallet. Data transferred over the Bitcoin network is not encrypted anyways. 2) You should not run a node on a laptop. 3) You can buy a used system that is 5-6 years old, e.g. some Quad Core or an early Intel i5 or i7. Pair that up with a Linux distro and a 1-2 TB HDD. Disable the wallet interface of the node and run it. But who cares? Ten year old laptops are basically free.
Correct. However, do you like running software on very sluggish hardware? I know that I do not. Just don`t put your "real wallet" on that node and just run it whit 0 bitcoin balance.
Just disable it completely, see my point 3. |

2. P2SH: Bitcoin Addresses like: 3P14159f73E4gFr7JterCCQh9QjiTjiZrG (SegWit)
A P2SH address does not have to be a SegWit address. When my Bitcoins lie on an Address like (1), do I then get the new Segwit2x-Bitcoin? Or must I transfer my Bitcoins from an address like (1) to an Address like (2) or (3) before the hardfork starts?
It is fine if it remains on a standard P2PKH address (1). You do not have to move them. Maybe when I do not transfer my Bitcoins to a P2SH or bech32 address before the hardfork, maybe then I do not get the new bitcoin and the old bitcoin loses the whole value. So I now have lost all my money.
This statement is absurdly stupid to the extent that it infuriates the reader. There is no such thing as a new Bitcoin. Bitcoin, in its current stated, with Bitcoin Core being the reference implementation is the only Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash != Bitcoin. Bitcoin Gold != Bitcoin. Segwit2x != Bitcoin. The latter is actually a corporate-sponsored attack on Bitcoin. Are the legend Bitcoin Addresses and the P2SH Bitcoin Adresses and the bech32 Bitcoin Adresses all on the same Blockchain?
All three types of addresses mentioned are Bitcoin addresses. |

This user's email address was changed recently.
This user changed his/her password recently.
The classic indicators are there. I will post my staked bitcoin adress when I get home from work. Please don't do any trades with this account since I'm not in controll of it at the moment
Most people will not see this unless the account is explicitly tagged. Didn't theymos add an option to freeze your account via email? See here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2282758.msg23164732#msg23164732. |

I have it starting at that price because I feel the coin is definitely worth it.
What you feel is irrelevant to the actual market value of a coin. 2011 Error = very minimal created that way, plus BTC, BCH, BCG, B2X.... It has great value, it's physical and its in great condition.
Correction. BTG is mostly worthless, and B2X is not safe to spend. Therefore, the only value only funded value on that coin stems from BTC and BCH. Current total of about 1.085 BTC. |
