So, who are your personal favorites, who do you think it will win and on who are you  going to bet? Discuss!

Yeah, that's without a doubt another fake wallet. As you noticed app is way too small (compared to real one which is 29 MB meaning almost 15x bigger) and on top of that they have fake reviews+ they took app images for the real one. Thanks for reporting and hopefully it gets removed soon.

---

The list has been updated with the two new findings today and four previously reported Exodus wallets has been marked as "removed" so for now here are at least two active fake wallets on Google Play.

For the last couple of years bitcoin ATMs were my preferred way of cashing out simply because they didn't require KYC (at least not in my country) and fee was somewhat reasonable (~4 %) but unfortunately ATM in my town increased the fee to approximately 6.5 % last year and that is something I am simply not willing to give anymore.

I do understand that owner has a lot of expenses and that profit margin ain't big for sure when he pays the rent for the place ( owner has 2 ATMs there) and all the taxes but still I felt like being robbed so I found other ways of cashing out while avoiding using my bank account.

@The Pharmacist I am just curious, how much is the fee at the ATM you are using?

Yeah I agree, people on forum tend to report various expressions or just some bickering like in this case as death threats just because they know that there are serious repercussions for such things (perma ban if I am not mistaken). Those who had real death threats will just laugh at something like this. I personally had those and gun pointed at me when I was a witness on a trial and friends of accused party  didn't like what i had to say so they decided to pay me a visit. So yeah, I don't really like when people call death threat something like this.

Regarding that jerry0 negative feedback, I do agree that it was an overkill but I don't think that @dkbit98 deserves an exclusion. He tagged (and busted) a lot of real scammers and I don't see him a someone who abuses trust system. Bad feedback can happen to anyone and it can be changed anyway.

Dunno, maybe I am just too thick skinned and insensitive but I don't see those things that @Lucius and @~DefaultTrust wrote as death threats, nor would I feel death threatened if they wrote that to me. Honestly, that whole thread should just be thrashed or locked a its just a bunch of nonsense and people writing stuff that's already been discussed many times before.

I am glad to see that Indonesian local board is slowly recovering after several bad months. When I first started doing these overviews Indonesian board was one of the most active, both post  and merit wise and out of sudden, your numbers dropped significantly, for whatever reason.


It is true that Indonesian board has one of the lowest merit.post ratio among all local boards while year ago it was completely opposite, your ratio was several times higher than it is now. For an example, just look at the merit/post ratio for March 2020 (first post of this thread) while Indonesian board had similar post count as it had last month. It is a huge decrease, going from 0.7 to 0.14.





That's the question only you and members of your local  board can answer as only you knows what's the posting quality there and how many good posts get unmerited etc. If you think that's the case, member of your board can apply to become merit source, or you can report good under merited/unmerited posts to Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source.

Iskreno, mladji clan koji nije vec godinama na nekom drugom forumu pa nije naucio na ovaj nacin komunikacije, nema sta puno naci na bitcointalku jer se velika vecina stvari u kripto svijetu dogadja mimo foruma, pogotovo ovaj DeFi i NFT hype koji privlaci najvise ljudi. Osim ako mu nije cilj upasti u neku sig kampanju pa tako zaraditi koji satoshi.

Osim na ovom ja sam aktivan na jos par foruma i slicna prica je svuda, ovakav nacin komunikacije nazalost polako umire.

Ma nema straha od toga. Ovi stariji ce me ispraviti ako grijesim ali sumnjam da je bilo slucajeva ukidanja lokalnih boardova. Pa jos su zivi oni na kojima se godisnje napise par desetaka poruka tako da nema straha za nas pa makar aktivnost jos doddatno pala.


Pa da, mislim da nece stetiti da ta tema bude otvorena bez obzira koliko se ljudi budu cesto prijavljivali. Osim ako je @Daniel91 tlaka cuvat merit za slucaj da se netko prijavi.

Evo i mjesecne analize, sa malim zakasnjenjem jer u zadnje vrijeme imam dosta nekih stvari sa strane pa vise nemam vremena za forum kao prije.

Podaci uz pomoc kojih sam napravio chartove te screenshotovi su preuzeti sa  @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboarda. Tko zeli gledati detalje, nek baci oko na taj tool.

Broj postova  u periodu 01.2-28.2

U navedenom razdoblju u nasem boardu napisano je 730 postova sto znaci da se nazalost trend smanjivanja aktivnosti nastavlja, unatoc bull runu. Iskreno mislim da ce kako vrijeme ide forum sve vise gubiti na relevantnosti. Em sto novije generacije nisu vise generalno sklone forumima, em sto razvikani projekti vise uopce ne fermaju forum ni 1%. Nekad je i Vitalik bio aktivan ovdje i promovirao svoj projekt, a sada ovim novima tipa Polkadot brijem da ni ne pada na pamet uopce dolaziti ovdje.

Ali unatoc svemu, ipak je ovo forum koji je napravio Satoshi te gdje je i sam bio aktivan tako da ce uvijek imati svoj znacaj.



A ovako se to kretalo kroz mjesece. Onaj pad u 12/2020 treba ignorirati jer je uzrokovan obrisanim postovima i premjestajima tema




Usporedba svih lokalnih boardova. Opet Turci predvode listu, a za njima standardno Rusi i Njemci. Unatoc padu mi se i dalje solidno drzimo

Analiza merita za period 1.2 -28.2

U navedenom razdoblju kod nas je podijeljeno samo 52 merita sto je nas daleko najlosiji rezultat u zadnje vrijeme, ovoliko malo merita nije podijeljeno jos od 9/2019. Iskreno slabiji rezultat ni ne cudi jer je stvarno bilo manje tih kvalitetnijih postova u koje je ulozeno nesto truda ali nekako ipak nisam ocekivao da ce pad biti ovako veliki.

@Daniel91 znam da nije bilo previse interesa u onoj tvojoj temi u zadnje verijeme te si ju zato odlucio zatvoriti, ali nadam se da ces se predomisliti i opet ju otvoriti. Imamo i dalje ponekog membera koji bi sigurno bio zainteresiran da ponekad shera svoj post tako da mislim da bi tvoja tema i dalje bila od pomoci. Sjecam se da je meni osobno jako pomgla, a kasnije sam prestao prijavljivati kad sam presao 1000 merita jer nisam htio zakidati one kojima je stvarno potreban merit za napredovanje.



A evo i liste onih koji su dali i poslali merit, koja naravno takodjer izgleda "mrsavije" neg inace




Kad se usporedimo sa ostalim boardovima, ne cudi da smo opet u donjem dijelu ljestvice, a da nisam ukljucio i ove koji nemaju svoj loklani board bili bi na prakticki samom dnu. Listu kao i uvijek predvode standardna imena, nema tu nekog iznenadjenja, iako je i tamo generalno pad podijeljenih merita.




I za kraj merit/post ratio chart, na kojem ocekivano imamo najgori rezultat od kada ja radim ove preglede. Nadam se da ce ovaj mjesec biti bolji po tom pitanju

Let me check my crystal ball :p

Joke aside, I don't really think that we will see bitcoin again at $10,000 any time soon, or ever for that matter. To go down from these levels (~60,000) to $10,000 it would mean more than 80 correction, so something like we saw back in the early 2018. Situation is different now, big names are now buying BTC so I don't expect panic selling like before even when it goes down. Another reason why I don't see 10,000 happening is because 60,000 is definitely not the top of the bull cycle. So more we go up, less chances to see BTC at $10,000. I personally don' think that BTC goes below 20k.

The only way for us to see 10k BTC ever again is imho some major fuck up or some widespread ban on everything BTC related.

Yep, it is fake wallet, different logo doesn't mean that they are not fake. Just look at the screenshot below, on the left its the MEW wallet description that you shared and on the right side it's the original. They are obviously impersonating the original wallet, even claiming that its "Ethereum's original and most trusted wallet" while we know that's obviously not true and that they are lying.I reported the fake app and will be added to the list.




Good find by the way as this fake wallet has more than 10,000 downloads.

Four days passed and ANN thread is still locked meaning no answer form Polkasocial team. From my experience, them ignoring this completely means only one thing; team is completely fake, and not just the founder photo, but the rest too. No legit project would wait for so long to answer to these accusations. I mean, how hard is to make one lousy video and remove all doubt?

Worst of all, seems like people are buying those tokens, if those are legit investors on Telegram asking about token distribution, but  sometimes scammers fake that too in order to attract legit ones.

What a coincidence, another person that was allegedly scammed by MyCryptoMixer for the exactly same amount  as another user reported few weeks ago.

Let's say for a second that it really happened the way you described it; why on earth would you send such a big amount of BTC to the service that you never used before? Why not start with smaller amounts first?

Really looking forward you providing some evidence like letter of guarantee.

You are right, Croatia is not in the Euro zone yet ( we are in EU though) but I am currently visiting one Eurozone country and that's where I tried using ATM for the first time. But from what I heard about conversion rate from some people that tried using card with ATM in Croatia, exchange rate was pretty good so it seems like Binance is not trying to rip off people so I will continue to do that (if needed) when i get back to Croatia.


Glad to hear everything working perfectly, it was same for me. No preparation, no procedures, I literally started using card half an hour after i got it and since then no issues whatsoever. I don't see why it shouldn't work with Google Play too.


Haha it does look cool indeed! They must have thought "who is that big shot"  

Are you absolutely sure that it happened? Maybe you just remembered wrong how much merit you had. Imho that is more likely than getting your merit removed.

Thing is, merit removal is extremely rare and  and even when that happens as far as I know it  should be visible on your merit transaction history and there is no sign of that.

Welcome!


I honestly had no issues whatsoever with Binance card for now. I've tried buying stuff online, using it at the supermarket and just the other day I used it for the first time to take some money out of the ATM and it worked like a charm. This ATM thing was the best part, as it turns out that it is the cheapest way I know to cash out. All I had to pay was 2.5 euro fee at the ATM and that's about it. Afaik, daily limit is 290 euro so it may take a while if you are cashing out bigger amount of money, but  for sure beats BTC ATM (that was my standard way of cashing out ) and its ~6% fee.

All in all, I am very satisfied and it became my go-to card for daily use.


Yeah that would be a bit too much I think, to expect cashback on ATM withdrawals.

All those that understand Croatian/Serbian shouldn't have any doubt whether Lauda is a male or female. Among other things, we have  genders for verbs in past tense and adjectives. In his posts made in Croatian board,  Lauda always used masculine gender. I remember some time ago I was so bored that I actually tried to find posts where he used feminine gender, to no avail.

Just an example from one of his posts. Adjectives and verbs are bolded, all masculine gender.



This is how it would look like if it was written using feminine gender




Maybe Lauda wanted to hide his gender right from the beginning, but somehow I think that he had just a bit of fun with people guessing it because of his name ends with an "a" or whatever else started all that, even though when I heard his name for the first time it didn't sound as a female name since it reminded me of a famous Austrian F1 driver Niki Lauda.

First of all, as you can see, this board is called "Bitcoin Discussion" so I don't think that this is appropriate board to talk about Ethereum and why it is terrible or not etc. You can move your topic by clicking "move topic" that is in the bottom left of your screen. Most appropriate place for this would be "Altcoin Discussion". Better do it yourself as if you don't, someone will probably report it so it may even end up being deleted.

Regarding the video, since its more than 40 minutes long, I need some time to watch it first before making any judgment.

If you want to risk more, then you can diversify between BTC and ETH but if you want to play if safe, just go all in on BTC. As simple as that.

Regarding that part on buying the dips, since I guess that you are new to all this, timing the market will be very hard for you, and possibly even frustrating (like being upset because you bought and right after that price went lower). What I would suggest you is to buy BTC/ETH once in a few weeks, preferably at the same date and keep on buying like that,so some sort of collar cost average method.

You are absolutely right, there was an error in that list of most active users in German local board! While copy/pasting from ninjastic.space I made a mistake and somehow replaced your link with another user. It's been sorted now and thanks for letting me know!
