¬snip¬
The first block of 2020 was block number 610,682 while your prediction was 610,540.
It means that bitcoin network is even faster than what you expected to be. Now, Craig and Ver are probably ashamed of themselves. Grin  Wink
Okay this demonstrates that I am good at math but ends up with upside down result :-P
No more party for Craig and Ver. Sorry fellas! :-D

Test Cricket
-Pakistan got Whitewashed in Australia, Smith's out of form
-Kiwi and English team were busy with circle jerk -Series not included in WTC-
-Srilanka lost the test against Pakistan. pakistan finally got some points in the table.
-Australia dominating kiwis in the home series - Marnus Labuschagne is new sensational cricketer-
-England got some spanking by Proteas- quality cricket in first 3 days and Joe root failed as an batsman, Again.-
Pakistan/Australia: Haven't seen a single ball :-( The Legend will come back in no time. I am sure Aussie management is not much worried about him. Is Warner still getting runs?
I was really into the Kiwi vs English Series but again seems like I missed all of them?
Pakistan is still better than at-least a Test playing nation LOL
I heard good things about Labuschagne, it was meant to be and let him enjoy his time.
So England and SA is a current series where I can spend some of my lazy time now?

Quote
Interesting News
- BCCI planning Super series (Ind +Aus+ Eng+ 1 more team)
-ICC thinking about 4 day Tests
The 1 more team: Kiwis - came in mind.
4 day Test? Let's not play Test match anymore LOL
Honestly speaking there are only few people left in the world who actually enjoy Test cricket. Instead of making it more interesting, they are now planning to erase the entire format? Not cool.

So I was basically 142 blocks faster than bitcoin block. It's another proof of bitcoin network being slow (/s). Craig W and Ver must be very pleased with this coz they will take this chance and will start pitching their shitcoins (Suckers!) :-P

Anyway, jokes aside. Happy New year and congrats to the Winners!

@1miau, once you will have both addresses then can you please PM the addresses so that I can send the funds that I promised.
By the way, it was a very good educational idea and I hope we will see more creative initiative like this in future. Good job!

So back in the game!
Last few weeks I was totally out of Cricket, forum and my regular life. Been busy with some real world projects and feels like I am way behind the trend here. A summary of the missed event and the upcoming cricketing event from anyone will be nice. Cheers,

Happy new year by the way. Finally we are in 2020, the Bitcoin Halving year.

5427  Economy / Reputation / Outdated token, Escrow faking - Telegram awareness on: January 01, 2020, 10:37:29 AM
Does anyone know how to report a user in Telegram? I think it can be done coz I have good business relationship with a user who was labeled as scammer by telegram and his texts always come with the below warning. (According to him, he deals with different betting sites and someone reported his account so TG flagged his account with this warning)

Quote
Warning: Many users reported this account as a scam. Please be careful, especially if it asks you for money.


Anyway, I initially thought to create this topic in the scam accusations section but then thought - there were no scam happened and it's basically reputation issue for some forum users and also TG users. So, decided to post it in this board (Reputation).

My bet is that some of the TG users (also has good knowledge about this forum too, possibly they are with this community for long time but they will always pretend that they are new here and somehow got your business information) make a living from scamming other users especially the lenders here.

Strategy is pretty simple: Confuse the lender, change focus (keep them busy with some unnecessary chitchat) and within short time make them to send you an amount and run away with it.

Including yesterday, in a few weeks period - I faced two of these type of scammers and good part is that both time they failed. 2nd one was interesting and knowing his intention I was just taking piss.

https://archive.md/BXyfU#selection-9089.14-9089.56
So I have the ETH address (0x0364b3437650103a82abecaa6fe34a292cfc85fa), a username (Although it was created only day before) to flag over the internet. But it's not enough unless people actually know their strategy and how they execute it.

Case study 1
So,
They will create a TG account or change the TG username to a new one to establish contact with you.
They will text you for some loan and will tell that they have collateral
They pretend that they are new to the forum
They will push you to use an escrow and they will pay the escrow fees. (This may surprise you by thinking that what is wrong with your own account since you are doing business here from long time but the user is having hard time to trust you)
Once agree with an escrow, they will contact a real escrow (in my case it was, DarkStar_)
The real escrow will appear in TG.
The scammer will create a group (Group 1): You, real escrow and him.
They will take a break and will say they will be back soon. Meanwhile you are the real escrow finalize your talk. << This is important for them (the scammer) to plan the next step and everything that will happened once they will re-appear will be very fast. Time is the only currency here.
In a very perfect moment you be added in another group (Group 2, which you are not really aware, you think the real escrow just text you in this new group. In the group there will be this fake escrow basically the scammer, the scammer and you), the fake escrow will tell you that he received the collateral.
If you want to see then he will ask you to wait a few minutes.
He then will tell you to send the BTC to him (fake escrow) instead of the borrower.

These are the pre written script so far I was able to gather.  Depending on the flow of conversation it may go to any direction. Notice all these times (after starting conversation in the Group 2, the real escrow, DarkStar_ in this case - really have no clue what is going on. To him both lender and borrower is a bit quite and taking their time. Possibly he is waiting for a response from either the borrower or the lender in the first group.)

Case study 2
In the 2nd incident when the scammer was convinced that my account reputation is enough to hold the escrow and I am asking him that I will hold the fund and no need for escrow then he came up with this fake token idea (0.40 BTC NEEDED AS AN LOAN collateral avalible << Very possible that it's this guy) to improvise the situation in his favor. But failed of-course.

May be some note to help you to escape from the scammer:
- While you will have conversation with him initially if you feel that he really knows the forum environment then he actually does, get alerted
- Do not response to his off topic conversations. Instead focus on the deal and try to understand the character of the person.
- Deal with escrow, only in his Bitcoin account not in TG. It's time consuming but risk free.
- Ask the escrow to sign the text always with a know bitcoin address that he used in the forum
- Report the TG user to telegram (I still need to know the process)

An important reading may help you to get to know the strategy of the scammers:
List of (un)known methods scammers user to scam users with honorable mention
(Possibly these knowledge saved me both the times to keep me safe, help yourself too)

If the feedback left by you then it's your call on how to handle it. I don't think anyone should have any question about it. If you think something will be justified by any condition then go for it.

I would not hesitate if I was you. Also I would not try to be someone's parent as well.

I definitely missed you Royse *nohomo*
The series is leveled by India winning the 2nd match. This one is a decider of the series.

Well I too miss it. It's just too busy to login and to keep me up to date.

Good for India that they did not slip the series. Hopefully they will win today. Unfortunately, I still did not get the time to go to espn website lol (imagine how useless my online status now ) :-p

I am hoping to back with my usuals in the next few days. Lately I caught up with tiresome traveling.
5435  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I enjoy posting on bitcointalk on: December 22, 2019, 01:35:05 PM
Once you get to know with the community and find a niche for you to hangout then things become addictive. In good week I can even end up making 150+ posts lol.

Consider it same as a community in your real world where you meet up with each others and share daily updates.



Once you love posting on this forum, you must succeed here, it's a working philosophy, is it even possible to succeed in an area you do not love, just because you want to earn?.

It's not about earning here. Earning is just a by product and one should not consider it as the main source.
5436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: December 22, 2019, 01:29:31 PM
No clue about what is going on in crickting world as too busy with some real world projects. May I have now time again to get busy here. Is India leading in the series. Last time I checked was WI head by 1 - 0 if I am not wrong.

How is everyone by the way.

@UmerIdrees, for PSL I can help you to get started with the pool if you want. I have seen in another thread you were interested to create a pool and I would like you to do that. Once you do things by yourself you learn the stuffs. Go on bud. I have your back. You have permission to use the format I use or to use any contents from my posts if you want.

5439  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many confirmations are equivalent* to 6 Bitcoin confirmations? on: December 17, 2019, 01:47:01 PM
Well I gamble very often and have accounts with bookies. Sportsnet.io are the one who will allow you to use the funds without any confirmation even within few seconds of the fund you just sent but the catch is you have to have minimum 3 confirmation of your deposits before be able to withdraw any fund.

End story is that everyone has their own strategy to protect their business. By the way I really hate bitpay shit. Sorry about the language :-D
