Name any difficulties in platform getting started or navigation process, if any?
Honestly, nothing. Just few intrusive "help" dialogue boxes.
But on the second visit, it's gone. So I assume that's it's only for the first visit, good job.
Just add "Newbie" or "Pro" in the registration page to automatically prompt-out the user to help pages and dialogue boxes.

What features you would be using day-to-day and why?
Texturing the Night Mode with not-totally solid black/colored background in order to (or just) Make the Borders more visible (during night mode).
Under trading, everything is fitted inside the screen just like other major exchanges, nothing to said against it except for PCs with small monitors.

What is missing to become a 10/10 cryptocurrency platform? (In your opinion)
Just this one: Highlight the "Average" from the order book.
I'm getting errors (6/8) using GoogleChrome's inspect function, but I can't tell which is which.

Overall, it looks quite simple and professional.

5322  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: XRP, VET, TRX, ZIL (MINING) on: November 28, 2018, 11:00:30 AM
thank you, is there any way to get into profit using crypto.
Currently, the only thing you can do is to be good at Day Trading. It takes a lot of time and effort to be considered as a "Pro", and you'll likely lose more coins/assets as you practice.

Mining isn't the best choice. Disregarding the Electric Bill, the only profitable hardware are the latest ASICs for mining Bitcoins but their prices can't justify the expected returns based on the current price and total network Hashrate.
Only those who've already got them are the ones who have been on mining (at loss).

Investing in ICOs are risky, however, you might find a way to profit from the Tokens/AltCoins if you're good at trading.
Most of them are scam to start with (about 90% of them) but some of those can be traded for useful coins afterwards. But still, too risky.

Honestly you can't profit at all, just mind your current business/job, keep your portfolio safe and (keep updated with the latest news) wait for price increase.
5323  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: XRP, VET, TRX, ZIL (MINING) on: November 27, 2018, 10:04:02 AM
All the mentionned coins are not minable.
Just check on coinmarketcap...
Tron (TRX) isn't mineable but you can receive more by their POR algo or something... (I may be wrong)
XRP, previously Ripple (XRP) isn't mineable.
VeChain (VET) isn't currently mineable
Zilliqa (ZIL) isn't mineable and it's an ERC Token.

But the bottom line is: It is not wise to mine any coin if you didn't already have the proper hardware, especially at the moment.
Some coins can be "rewarded" through their unique Proof of Work alternatives like Tron but still, they still require hardware like Huge disk drives or huge RAM.

Either way, you will be spending more than the amount that will/would return to you. If you're hoping for a price boost, buying more is still the better choice.
5324  Economy / Services / Re: [SURVEY]|Take a quick Survey about Gambling & Bitcoin/Crypto|Get $3 in BTC on: November 23, 2018, 02:53:06 AM
The Survey is once again Open.
-snip-
It'll only be open for one week with payments being sent out in one week (Next Thusday, at latest Friday).
You might need to increase the minimum allowed rank. The new participants are exclusively only newly created newbies.
The addresses are suspiciously from the same wallet, I'm sure that when those get funded, it will be accumulated in one or one set of addresses.

Reason? in just a few minutes, bunch of reports had been posted in a constant intervals using one address format (SegWit "3" P2SH-P2WPKH).
In exemption to legit new participants.

Hi! I Am doing a research on Bitcoin users. I am contributing the research results to be useful for bitcointalk forum. If you have some time please be kind enough to fill this form and help me in my research.
What kind of "research" is it?
If you're asking for our time to fill it up with honest answers, it would be nice to share to us the reason for doing it.

Quote from: formResponse
Thank You for your valuable Response. Happy Bit-coining !!!
BTW, what is "Bit-coining"? I'm always seeing that term on Youtube make-money-online videos and in some Local Boards.


This survey is asking for a lot of personal data. Why do you need that? Isn't it something fishy?
I didn't see any red flags here, just some invaluable info that only a real newbie can think of.
5326  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: I'm freaking out here. Some good soul please HELP! on: November 17, 2018, 11:14:54 AM
The transaction that you linked has been confirmed (currently has 205 confirmations)...
I've also sent bitcoins on the same date (Nov.14) with 1 sat/byte transaction fee, although mine isn't urgent.
It took almost a day to confirm, to be exact: approximately 19hrs.

@OP Please take note (for future transactions): You can safely assume that the transaction was "broadcasted" successfully the moment that you can see the txid on online blockexplorers.

This will either get you banned from Adsense or Facebook.
In the end, participants will never get a share due to the fact that Adsense will never display an add on a website with a single content (or will find out afterwards).
After all, it's against Facebook and Adsense's Terms of Service.

Good luck on finding participants.

This represent reporter's eye condition after seeing too many shitposts Tongue
You know, right? I've realized that too.
That's not what actually I'm trying to display, it's the color's neutrality-level. It goes from green (light-leveled color) to red (elite).

How about an eye which opens to different extents, and widest for 5000 good reports?
A red eye looks grim
With a 16x16 pixels limit, there will be limitations.
If the three aren't shaped similar, there will not be any uniformity.

IMO, what we need is a (better) SMP Forum-friendly badge.
5329  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin "lost", not accessible anymore. on: November 04, 2018, 06:19:09 AM
Regarding the "wrong change address format", that bug seemed linked to a faulty address generation in that wallet's code.
I've seen something similar, not in a wallet but in a mining app but the bug seems to be the same. Something to do with the address' "Hash 160" which was  wrongly used in the process.

I heard that it has the "self-destruct" function or whatever that is.
Have you tried the SMS recovery function?

To remotely retrieve your wallet seed for backup/restore. Send an SMS to your phone with the following message

You will receive the HEX seed of your wallet in response which you can use to restore access to your bitcoin.

I'll try to submit a badge since I currently have a small window on my schedule.
As promised, here are my proposed reporter badges:
They look like iris of an eye, because IMO using an eye strongly represents a good reporter.

  • -> 300 Good Reports
  • -> 1000 Good Reports
  • -> 5000Good Reports

5331  Other / Meta / Re: Stake your Bitcoin address here on: October 29, 2018, 11:58:05 AM
My old btc address was hacked by someone. Can I create another signature message?
Sure, you can.

There's no definitive rule against multiple "staked address", the issue is on the validity. A staked address can only be used if it wasn't recently posted.
So, better post it now than later.
5332  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 2010-2011 Windows XP bitcoin mining recovery HELP on: October 25, 2018, 05:20:27 AM
Warning: Do not entertain PMs requesting private keys, seeds or file copies especially from newbies. If possible, keep the discussion public.

Recovering the "undetermined amount" of mined bitcoins from an old (wiped?) disk depends on the available information you can remember.
But looking at the OP, it's as good as blind searching.

First of all, if it came from Mining, there's no guarantee that you've successfully hit a block (for the old solo mining) or configured the mining software and pool account the right way.
Next, you should at least know the (worker) bitcoin address or the wallet where it belongs.
Lastly:
i don't remember the pool or the miner or the wallet nor the seed xD
You can't solve anything with this.

Start by, using a recovery software if the disk was previously erased and look for file names starting with wallet, default_wallet, wallet.dat and something similar.
5333  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: gpu miners are selfish, butt hurt gamers on: October 22, 2018, 03:42:01 AM
Lol, so true.

But keep in mind that there are GPU miners out there who aren't drama queens but also lost potential profits from those "not-so-unpredictable" ASIC boosts.
They are mature enough to "not whine" during a crisis.

On the contrary, how about ASIC buyers who've started drama threads ripping ASIC manufacturers about the implications of their greed?
Are they the same basement-dwellers who can be easily butt-hurt~ed?

The answer is as simple as the diversity of the miners, edgelord teenagers to profiting grandpas (or profiting teenagers to your still edgelord grandpa) are now into the mining game.
In the end, there is someone who will get butt hurt and start a drama.
5334  Other / Serious discussion / Re: How do I ask for help without sounding awkward? on: October 17, 2018, 03:41:09 AM
If being awkward bugs you, the root of the problem is in your state of mind or well-being.

Big examples are typos and grammatical errors, people will think of something that was badly written differently. Most "mature" or "educated" audiences wont judge you based on small errors, but based on the message (except for totally incomprehensible context).
Those who frequently "lol'd" at those "small" details can be considered as immature or just really stupid and you need to train yourself to easily disregard those type of reactions (and thinking of those kind of reactions).


Directly asking for donations in every document is bad however (not to your reputation but to the result), you can change the context of the donation message into something neutral or positive like "Did it help? Buy me a coffee: 1btcaddress" or something similar.
Use your Signature if it's available.

I really hope I did not sounding awkward
This will make you sound awkward /s

Search exclusively in the "Scam Accusation" board, you might find some investigations regarding MyBitcoin there.
Like this one: Mybitcoin is a scam!, July 2011.

Also, this should be moved to "Service Discussion". Moved
5336  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why does Bitcoin Core(testnet) unable to connect to bitcoin network? on: October 11, 2018, 05:53:35 AM
Bitcoin Core Version: v0.16.0(x64)
You should read the news just below the site header.

Here's the link to main thread: New info escalates importance: upgrading to 0.16.3 is REQUIRED
Better upgrade to 0.17.

Also, try to delete the latest blk.dat file (or the latest 5) inside the blocks folder, then try to sync again.
5337  Other / Meta / Re: Hunt for the no merit highest post count record. 0 Merit 3139 posts on: October 08, 2018, 05:13:12 AM
Guys guys, what's driving you to spend time on making more "merit-status hunting" threads than doing other more productive "jobs"? like answering technical support questions or participating in other non-spam bitcoin-related conversations to improve your own understanding of Bitcoin's usage and technical terms.

Stats? We already got plenty.
Compiling reports is a thing if the spammer/rule-breaker can't be stopped with the report button, but something like this^ can be easily found on online tools like Vod's BPIP.

If you want to bust spammers, investigate and report.
Not this spam, sugar-coated with a sarcastic Cream-of-the-Crop list.

Sorry.
5338  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: BTC sent Mycelium BCH address on: October 07, 2018, 03:34:33 AM
Did the transaction went through with confirmations?
If it did, I will assume that the address format starts with "1"; if it is the new type "q" addresses, the transaction cannot be generated at all.

Anyways, in case that it starts with 1, you need to export the private key of that particular address and import it in a Bitcoin TrCash wallet like Electron Cash.
But Mycelium doesn't have such option, you need to manually generate it using other tools like https://iancoleman.io/bip39/.

But I'm afraid I cannot help you further with this since I'm not familiar with Bitcoin cash seed tools.
You can move this to Mycelium child-board for more accurate support.
5339  Other / Meta / Re: Can't we ban this guy already? on: October 04, 2018, 03:43:56 AM
Reports were good but better if you PM the user to tone it down, remove the Advertisement Banners and guide him on the right board(s) where his typical posts should be posted.
Mods can't nuke a copper Jr.Member.

A moderator doing this along with the "Deleted Post Notification" is better than a straight ban.
5340  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Please help find missing bitcoin on: October 01, 2018, 01:10:05 PM
What could this file suggest?
Was this part of a mining file? node? So weird.
Its just a blk.dat file (and it's quite large wasn't it?), it consists of blocks that's required by the client to verify transactions.

What you want to find is something named like "wallet.dat" or any ".dat" that is not larger than 10mb unless it was used a lot of times (in some cases).
Also, it shouldn't be in "blocks" folder.

My two cents is that if you happen to successfully recover the wallet file, it might be already corrupted and produce some issues.
Make sure to make a backup copy this time before trying to use a private key recovery software on it.
