Just to make sure: compared to exchanges, which may freeze 'tainted' coins (after you sent them), does Wasabi CoinJoin also freeze blacklisted UTXOs or does it 'just not accept them into a CoinJoin' (so you still have the option to move them to Bisq or wherever)? I don't think they will freeze the coins in the sense that they will take them from you. They will just restrict you from taking part in the coinjoins with that set of tainted UTXOs. That's how I understand the below explanation they made: zkSNACKs Ltd. may execute illicit activity checking and control via a contracted third party solely in its coinjoin coordination services. zkSNACKs Ltd. may suspend your UTXOs’ access to the coinjoin services, with immediate effect for any reason - including but not limited to illicit or prohibited activities, applicable sanctions programs, or any crime or money-laundering activity - at its sole discretion and is under no obligation to disclose the details of its decision to take such action with you. In this case you are not permitted to use the relevant/high-risk bitcoin UTXO to reach the coinjoin services.
You acknowledge that zkSNACKs Ltd.'s decision to take certain actions, including suspending for any reason at our sole discretion, may be based on confidential criteria that are essential to zkSNACKs Ltd.'s risk management and security protocols. You agree that zkSNACKs Ltd. is under no obligation to disclose the details of its risk management and security procedures to you.
Your access with the relevant bitcoin UTXOs to the coinjoin services will be permanently suspended. https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WalletWasabi/blob/master/WalletWasabi/Legal/Assets/LegalDocumentsWw2.txtI guess that still doesn't mean that those UTXOs would also be blacklisted on centralized exchanges, but the chances of that happening are surely greater. Each CEX can have their own algorithms and methods to determine what is taint to them. That's why all this nonsense is so dangerous. Depositing to one CEX might get your coins and account frozen, but doing the same on a different CEX might work without any problems. The simplest solution, don't use any of them.

If I disable wifi on my laptop and then write the 24 words on a microsoft notepad then transfer it to usb stick will that safe? No, because you are going to enable it straight after again. Those secrets can be saved in your memory or some temp files and people who know where to look might be able to find the seed. Your laptop might be infected. Did you understand the point we were trying to make about using digital ways to store the seed? DON'T DO IT! What's wrong with a pen and paper? Write it down on multiple pieces of paper and store them properly.

Telegram accounts can get scam tag but since Telegram accounts are easily disposable I don't think that its even worth it to report that. What about the usernames? If the DireWoIfM14 ID on a Telegram account associated with phone number A gets tagged, can the same ID be used again on a Telegram account associated to phone number B, but this time without the scam tag? If the scammer has been involved in various scams for years now, it's weird that the same username is still being used.

Was this the thread you were referring to Pmalek? BitLucy.com 🎰 no more in bitcointalk It has been locked by Royse777 in well under 24 hours since she appeared this morning. Moreover, the bitlucy site is down. No, that was not what was supposed to happen. Whoever I talked to over the chat said they will post an update to reassure the community that withdrawals are being processed and things are finally looking good. We can all see how that went...

...so I'm a bit surprised to see someone on these forums pushing it like it's some sort of addition to Bitcoin. Who is doing the pushing in your opinion? Me? This is a forum to discuss anything and everything related to Bitcoin and there is no pushing of anything. Like I told Franky at the beginning, the idea of having Bitcoin in what I though was in its native form (but it isn't) move around on an alternative chain seemed interesting and worth discussing. But after the assessment he made, there doesn't seem to be anything there that has any real value for Bitcoin. Or to sum it up: just add it to the pile of other schemes and crapcoins over the years and move on

Let me try with 10 - Pmalek

you will find most scheming, shamcoins and crap coins never want to do a free-bie open 'AMA' where they risk being asked negative stuff they cant answer.. .. what they prefer is controlled PR events like paid to attend conferences where they get paid and also they can control the questions.. (remember "bitconnect") I believe that they took a quick look and scanned this thread to see how the general mode was and if the comments were going in a direction that favors them. Since that isn't the case, they don't want to get themselves involved. On the other hand, if your comments and the majority of other people only had good things to say about the project, they might have been willing to share a few words with their new supporters.

I've memorized the password. it's some words that I won't forget. Really? Not even if you have an accident, severe head trauma, or suffer from memory loss? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Notepad from microsoft? Yes, that's the one.
The seed should be written down on paper and stored in different geographical regions. Make sure they are protected from humidity, water, and fire. Other options include engraving the words in stainless steel or creating your own method such as Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers. Digital mediums are less safe, especially clouds and online platforms. Your seed shouldn't be on a computer that has an active internet connection for maximum security. Only hardware wallets have the means to protect you from some online threats.

On a different note, Ledger supports around 2000 different coins and tokens. In reality, most of them are useless. I don't think there is another hardware wallet manufacturer that supports that many altcoins and shitcoins like Ledger does. Trezor has a fair share of them as well, but the support depends on the type of Trezor HW you have. If Ledger doesn't support it natively or through a 3rd-party app, is that really an asset worth buying and keeping? Just something worth thinking about.

It's done, we have activated the automatic update. Nice. I just tried it out with a random tennis match and I can confirm that the odds are no being updated without me having to refresh the page manually. Noted, we'll try to add this type of information. Good. It's really an essential feature to have. You want your players to be able to see everything in one place without forcing them to keep multiple tabs and services open to look for current results, stats, etc. That will just make them use another gambling platform where all those features are already built in.

<Snip> Thanks for the update Royse777. Because of the way things have evolved I have removed my avatar and personal text. I hope you get your personal things sorted out and that the casino pays out the money it owns its players. Take care.

I just had a talk with one of their customer services rep via live chat and apparently the CEO joined in on our talk as well judging by the tag next to their name. I expressed some concern for the way withdrawals have been handled so far and asked if they processed their player's withdrawals yesterday at 20:00 CET as announced earlier. They said they did.
I asked them to submit some proof or a status update in this thread or in their gambling ANN that shows that withdrawals are being processed and they promised to do that at the end of the day. Probably after 20:00 CET. After the status update, we can follow the comments of players to see if their withdrawals have been sent or if there are still negative comments from their users about non-processed transactions.

Good point - what springs to mind for me was winning the 'Discovery of the Year 2021' award where I also got some funds from Sportsbet! I might actually not be able to sell them on a centralized exchange. Yeah, that's right. You were one of the winners who got some money from Sportsbet. If you were to deposit those in Gemini or Binance.US (probably Coinbase as well), they would surely have some questions for you. Especially if you got those coins directly from an address associated with Sportsbet. I see no reason why Sportsbet would make any roundabouts and hide the origin of the Bitcoin. I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but it appears Yobit charges 0.0005 for any coin. Seems that way, yes. So that's around $11 at current rates. But there are also reports like this one where the screenshot shows they are asking for 0.03 ETH for Ethereum withdrawals. Even after this recent drop in value, that's still $35. For HitBTC it's even more interesting! ... According to the same external website I quoted before though, it costs 0.0007BTC, which makes it even more expensive than the former exchange Yeah, 0.0007 BTC seems to be correct according to https://withdrawalfees.com/exchanges/hitbtc as well. I'm not sure how decentralized they are though, if they have a simple website that you can interact with. This to me implies there are (centralized) servers that can easily be taken down or hacked. You connect your own ETH wallet to the exchange. The exchange doesn't provide you with a deposit address. The danger is that one of the ways to do that is to import your private keys! That of course shouldn't be done. A different way is connecting with a Ledger hardware wallet. With the Nano, you don't import any private keys of course. I remember reading about a DNS hack a few years ago where everyone who used the fake site at the time had their wallets emptied, but Ledger users remained protected because of their connections through hardware wallets.

If you're not into bounty hunting don't use Telegram... Hasn't Telegram become a requirement in the bounty scene already to the extent that you can't be involved with bounties unless you have a Telegram account? Seems like you are required to join one or more Telegram channels connected to the project. Besides that, there are things like like and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and other nonsense. Telegram in itself isn't a bad service. It's the people who abuse what it has to offer that are malicious. Telegram's fault is having certain features like allowing anyone to add you or message you (unless you change your privacy settings), or the worst of it all is allowing one side to delete private conversations for the other party as well. That's absolutely ridiculous and it shouldn't be there at all. You should at least have an option not to allow anyone else to delete your PMs.

Your Telegram and email address are publicly posted, which means that anyone can contact you and claim whatever they want. It's your job to filter out the scammers from genuine users, especially if someone claims to be a trusted member of the forum. Don't believe anything you see on the Internet and don't trust people you don't know. Had you asked that DireWoIfM14 to send you a PM on Bitcointalk, you would have been safe.
The best thing you can do now is report him to Telegram as being a spammer. Not sure if anything will happen to the account though.

Manual withdrawals were supposed to be processed at 20:00 CET, around 4 hours ago. Have players started receiving their withdrawals, and can someone update the community on the current state of affairs? Are they being processed or are the same players still waiting to get their coins with the support asking them to try again?
|

The website seems to be online, so that would mean that you can start processing your player's withdrawals with no further delays. According to the recent updates by Royse777, the next manual withdrawal is scheduled for 20:00 CET. In about 3 hours from now. I will keep an eye on the Bitlucy ANN thread and this reputation thread and remove my avatar and personal text if it doesn't look like anything is moving in the right direction after 20:00 CET. There really should be no excuses more and bring one site down to start another and ask players to keep resending their withdrawal requests.

Nisam u toku. S vremena na vrijeme napišem nešto u Scam Accusation podforumu ali ne ulazim često u Reputation. Sad ću baš na miru pročitati o čemu je riječ. Čim mi skrečeš pažnju na to, nije sigurno ništa dobro. Sjećam se da je Royse777 napisao da imaju problema sa stranicom i da je jedno vrijeme bila i offline. Koliko vidim sad je aktivna.

A customer service representative has replied back to my email where I asked them if a developer or other team representative would be interested in taking part in this discussion. They have turned down the offer, saying they are grateful for the interest, bla, bla, but because they get many similar requests from other people they can unfortunately not fulfill them.

And the carrot-stick guy is the exchanges, and we ain't got nothing to incentivise these people not to use those exchanges.
It takes other (good) exchanges to destroy the rotten ones. The new (good) ones have to be better than those they are trying to replace. In every sense of the world. If it's a combination of good and bad, most people will just continue using the sites they are comfortable with. Unfortunately, it mostly boils down to how much money/crypto will eventually end up in someone's pocket or wallet. You are not going to get to most people telling them how decentralized exchanges are better and explaining the reasons why that is, when all they see is that the centralized one gives them $50.000/coin, while the best offer on the decentralized one is only $49.200. Then there is the issue with marketing. Have you ever seen an ad or commercial for Bisq? Me neither. But if you watch sports, you can see centralized exchanges in the biggest sports competitions nowadays. Money buys new customers. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
