5401  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: BOUNTY AND UNFAIR TREATMENT OF HUNTERS on: September 28, 2020, 02:30:17 PM
It is of no doubt that many investors detest bounty hunters as they usually attribute the fault of price fall and dump to them, instead of blaming the project teams that do not put things in place to make their projects stand out.
Today, the team equally treat the hunters wickedly as if they're beggars after the hunters have completed the tasks assigned to them.

I recently witnessed a bounty pool of $15,000 with a participants of around 2,000. The bounty bounty was first scheduled for 4 weeks and later extended to 20 without a dime added to the pool.

The hunters endure the hash condition to complete the project and the hunters' were still delayed for several months after the bounty ended. When the started to pay, just 20% was released extending the rest of the payment to over 9 months.

Despite all these, the token price is still not attractive. Are all these hash treatments meted on hunters worth it!

Without a dime added to the pool? Damn! man, that's hilarious. I mean, that's one of the worst burglaries I've ever heard. +20 weeks? no matter how legit was the project that's no justice man. They should not made any bounty from the start and those bounty managers really need to excrow the rewards if not, there will be a lot of cases like this to happen in the future. Not just you OP, I witnessed such kind of scenario when I was doing bounties 2 years ago and until now I cannot forget the name of the bounty and the manager who promotes it.

This is the Bounty I'm talking about: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5061455.0

Deduction
The scammer could either be working alone or with a team. Either he owned the site or he's team did and he was to keep the fee for himself or share the said 0.003BTC with his team. It might seem small but, they could be phishing for your email, wallet and private key details amongst others. Now, it's either your attacked directly or your details can be sold on black market.


Those crooks are some team with their main office mostly they are located in India like what I saw in this video.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=le71yVPh4uk

However, the same strategy is used all around the world and most of them don't really have a conscience. No matter who you are, some grannys or some pure innocent man they will take advantage and run away with your money. so better to be careful and prevent those things to happen by not giving your trust to some strangers in the internet.
5404  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bill to recognize Bitcoin as a currency in Isreal on: September 28, 2020, 01:06:01 PM
We live through taxes and I don't mind paying it through my bitcoin profit because I know bitcoin can give more profit than those taxes, and I think this is way better than to ban bitcoin. Some countries pushes their people to transact more online and do a cashless transaction, if bitcoin become more legal then this is a great option to all of us. Bitcoin is indeed a currency despite of the volatility, so this is still a good move by Israel.

Yeah! the last time a country has legalized and recognized bitcoin as their currency is Germany. Now we heard this popular country have the same vision as the Germany does and if that bill will passed, that's another good story and will make some good history in the record of bitcoin throughout these years. The only thing I don't know is, the reason of Israel to do this. what could be their main reasons to submit such bill?
5405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Mark Magsayo vs Rigoberto Hermosillo on Oct 3 on: September 28, 2020, 12:45:59 PM
This is just a tune-up fight for him, this will an easy fight as everybody else said. the only difference is, we won't know which round the fight end. Like what we have seen in Casimero's fight with Micah yesterday, it will end up badly for Magsayo's opponent if the fight will reach the long run and if the referee won't stop the fight immediately, his opponents might get some serious injury. Magsayo is now tuning for a world title fight and this fight would be a great start-up for him.

5406  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hacker started to eliminate tokens stolen from KuCoin on: September 28, 2020, 12:11:55 PM
The hackers are so intelligent that they can be sold those coins like no one is watching them. the anonymity of each token is really hard to track and those hackers are clever enough to choose those coins to steal. Now the authority cannot help but only to watch those transactions being made one after another. If these hackers can be tracked with the current movement of their transactions, hacking of the exchanges may drastically lower to the point that no one gonna hack exchanges anymore because they are tracked sooner or later.

Anyway, this kind of hiring method is pretty old and they can be easily tracked now. Mostly, this kind of thing happened in the dark web because most of the underground transactions such as this are common there. Most of the time people who offer such services are just scammers and fraudsters but there is a tendency that you are talking to real criminals which were happened here in this topic. That's why of all the places on the internet you should avoid going to that place.

5408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs. Conor McGregor on: September 27, 2020, 01:35:11 PM
I am not hoping for this to happen.

I think Manny could fight other boxers and not this kind of an exhibition match. I know Manny and his game with every strong opponent he will face but I think it is better for Pacquiao to fight other professional boxers now and let this plan be his final match if he decides to hang the gloves, or maybe other rematches to prove that he's the best boxer of this generation.
Since yesterday, there are legit sources in different social media platforms that posted this fight so this will happen Smiley.

Main reason why he choose to fight this one is for the country (since he is always fighting for our country in the first place). He want to help those who are the most affected ones by this pandemic that is why majority or large portion of his winnings will be going to these people. What a kind fighter and politician we have Smiley.

This is the reason why he is fighting that man because we really need some funds for the charities and our fellow countrymen who has less fortunate may benefit from this fight. As of today, there are lots of videos of reviews in youtube regarding this fight and most of them don't really whether what the aim of this fight as long as this fght will happened in the middle east. I am also excited for this fight to happen and hope that they will fight like they used to be in the ring.

Congratulations to the Lakers!! Finals are real.

I've never thought that it's been 10 years since their last finals appearance.

Yeah! as expected because a team like the Lakers, cannot be affected with the other team that has been defeated by Nuggets with a 3-1 deficit. Now we have witnessed another history. I remember when how the Los Angeles Lakers beat Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics way back in 2009 and 2010. Now we are witnessing another history, I wonder If they can win another Championship after 10 years. I think whoever forms the two teams will win in the Eastern Conference Finals will give the Lakers a pain in the ass match since those two are pretty competitive that won't give an easy play to them.
5410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do think about skill games? on: September 25, 2020, 02:57:25 PM

There are other games that is not mainly about luck, but also skill and knowledge/experience. People also include Poker and Blackjack as one of those skill-based games, I don't know if esports is included in sports betting but it is another example. As you said it is a about gather information and putting your money into a team with a higher odds of winning, it is usually all about analyzing and experience and some luck.

If I'm not mistaken there are some competition of skill-based games rather than the normal competition of fighting games. I saw that there are lots of kids that has been competing in the national championships in this category of games. Whoever passed all the levels with the fastest time, they're the one get the highest score and will become champion on that kind of sport. I was sure that I saw it somewhere on youtube I just can't remember which channel was it.
5411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Was 2017 the "Golden Year of Crypto"? on: September 25, 2020, 02:02:40 PM
I don't think so because the bull-run has only happened in the last days of December which is one of the great histories of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, I don't consider it golden age since it's not that long before it falls again after that trend. For me, 2017 was the best year fo bounties because almost project that appeared that year was legit just before they become shit and bankrupt. But most of the project that year was good and paying. there are lots of bounty participants who got their biggest history of received payment in bounties.
5412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and tax in your countries on: September 25, 2020, 01:44:49 PM
One of the luckiest countries that don't implement a tax on Bitcoin is our country. It doesn't overwhelm us with some high payment tax if we want to use BTC rather it only gives us some advice that crypto investment is not reliable. whatever they say about it, as long as they won't put any unnecessary tax about it. We can see some countries instead of giving their full support to bitcoin, they increase the tax on it. They didn't follow these lists of countries that don't tax bitcoin gains.

5413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do people keep playing unlicensed, illegal slot machines? on: September 24, 2020, 03:31:12 PM
Our neighbor had this kind of slot machine and they called it "Bar Bar" it is one of the exact slot machines you are talking about. In our village, people always want to play this game, and lots of kids are addicted to this. that's why the authority won't allow this game and whoever caught having this in their house will be fined and sometimes if they caught, they served months of sentence in jail like what happened to our neighbor. You can see in this picture what I am talking about. note: these are not my neighbors, there are different people but the same illegal activity.  Grin Grin

5414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain and Bitcoin adoption globally. What is the cause of the slow pace. on: September 24, 2020, 02:20:15 PM
You see, more than a decade is not really that long. especially we had some serious misconceptions along the way until we have reached this far. lots of criticisms, negative speculation, and other bad stuffs threw at us throughout these years. However, we have a long way to go to see the result of each of our works to promote Bitcoin and Blockchain technology. The beginning is always hard or difficult but after this long run and after the misconceptions are cleared, we will see some great news one after another and no more criticisms since people will know the truth that Bitcoin and blockchain were only being used by those crooks to give bad names to this industry.

So what shall I say? HEAT in 5? Will the HEAT would end the series in 5 to rest early? The game tonight was really exciting, it was Heat who are leading most of the time but Celtics didn't give up, they have so much talent but heat was more on a good chemistry as a team, a rookie putting his team on his shoulder? That's the big news.

The game tonight was unexpected because everybody eyes's are on Jimmy Butler but suddenly the one of the youngest rookie player in the league took the spotlight by giving all his best, managed to out scored Boston up to the final quarter and win the game which give them the lead 3-1 in the Eastern Conference Final.

Tyler Herro has made an outstanding record that not even the NBA all-star has ever made on their career. He passes Wade's record for the youngest who got 20+ points in a playoff game and in the Eastern Conference Final.

5416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin a sure legacy on: September 24, 2020, 01:20:37 PM
I agree that bitcoin is an asset in the future, even for the children and grandchildren, it can be inherited with the condition that the bitcoin wallet is included with the grandchildren, if the wallet is hidden, the children and grandchildren cannot feel the inheritance.

Yeah! this is no doubt the case for the one who really wants to keep it as a legacy to their children's in the future. However, unlike any other assets, Bitcoin should keep along with the instructions to use it. because there are some possibilities that the one who will take it in the future won't have the knowledge to use it. This discussion has been posted for about a year right now, I'm sure the topic about how we can successfully save btc to make it as an inheritance to our kids is here. You are free to search it here in bitcoin discussion.

Yeah! crminals also have some advantages with this so-called new normal. In our city alone, shooting incidents is highly intraceble. Those criminals can get away easily now. Even the CCTV cannot give us any enlightenment about the crime and most of the time we can not see them through the CCTV's installed in the city proper. It is because of the damn mask people doing crimes cannot be trace that easily anymore because everyone in the town is wearing the damn mask.



This is just an alibi! they need think another alternative method or all those criminals can shoot whoever they want even though in the middle of the day in the city proper.
5418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is Addictive...Pay Attention to your Gambling Habit!!! on: September 23, 2020, 03:25:19 PM
My best solution to prevent to become addictive is to create a paper wallet which I cannot easily reach and transfer 50% of my winnings to. So if I lost after that, I am not able to redeposit all to chase my losses. For me this works very well.

That's a clever Idea and you are the only one doing that so far. I see, when you already transferred some BTC to your paper wallet, you will have some hard time getting it back or I may sat it takes a lot of time that would make you stop playing whenever you run out of money in the gambling site without getting some money from that paper wallet. However, If the gambler pursue to play even though he runs out of money from playing and decide to get some BTC in his paper wallet, he may ended up losing everything inside that wallet. You may say this has not happen to you but I was just talking about the tendency that this could be happened if greed cannot be stopped.
5419  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if you invested a $1 in Bitcoin every day for 5 years on: September 23, 2020, 03:03:07 PM
This has been discussed several years ago, they have made some deep analysis of when someone invested $1 every day in BTC. well, everytime the price of bitcoin decrease in the market, when you only invest this much everyday it won't really matter that much to you. Therefor, this is one of the good investing method you can do with bitcoin. you won't really care if how this investment end because the amount of money you are putting to your BTC wallet is not that much and who really cares about a dollar in our every day life?

I'm currently thinking if this idea will work after 5 years form now? I wonder what would be the price of bitcoin after those years. will it continue to increase, or it will not budge in the $10,000 mark like what we have seen today in the market.

Celtics vs Heat game 4. Choose your pick,,.. .

can the Celtics even the series here? What do you think about Butler, can he lead his team for a win and make the series 3-1 in favor of them?
It's gonna be a great game to watch again, the last 3 games was all an exciting game to watch, I have put my bet on the Celtics -3 to win in game 4, what's yours? and why?

We can't be sire about that tomorrow since we have seen how the Boston Celtics handled game 3 and out score Miami throughout the end of the game. Now we have seen some star players choked at the playoff games and those players are not new and inexperience. they've just lose their way to win the crucial games they need to advance. Let's just hope that Butler won't be that way and he can still comeback to win game 4 tomorrow.
