I hope that won't happen. Serial spammers will just move elsewhere when they realize that their post count and activity isn't improving and that would just create more problems with more spam in some other parts of the forum. My guesses would be Bitcoin and Altcoin Discussion and Gambling Discussion. I say keep them there and pull the blinds down so no one sees what they are doing.

I remember someone was talking about this a while ago, I guess that was you. I am sure you have googled the error, but did none of the suggestions help at all?

I am seeing this thread for the first time, but I will share my opinion nevertheless.
Marketing campaigns are usually designed to attract new players. Preferably those with a lot of money to spend. Companies often forget about the customers who have been with them for many years. They look at them as already hooked to the product and there is no need for new stimulus and attention.

You can see that all over the place, and casinos are not doing anything different. If you want to sign with a new TV and Internet provider, you will find plenty of offers of 50% discounts for the first year, and things like that. But if you have been with the provider for 5 or 10 years, you don't get any discounts.

So I prefer higher RTPs and greater chances to win some money instead of having the casinos lower the reward pools because they are financing heir marketing campaigns with that money. 

The coins don't originate from hacks and scams. One sentence in the source article mentions the money was seized from drug traffickers and similar criminals.

I read a great comment by someone on Facebook that I memorized a few days ago. Some guy said: "if you are going to ban Russian tennis players from Wimbledon, you need to ban Israeli athletes from everything!"

All wars are awful. But if you think 60 days of war is bad, imagine 60 years of having your homes taken away from you little by little as your country keeps shrinking to a ghetto with full blessing and support by the West and the democratic powerhouses of today. Those same nations who condemn Russian actions turn their heads when you mention Palestine and they will continue to do so.

The article mentioned the coins will be converted to fiat and a part will be donated to Ukraine.   

I have already posted here but seeing as no one has mentioned Gavin Andresen yet, I thought his name should be mentioned in this thread. Let's not forget that he ran his own faucet back in 2010 and gave away 5 BTC per claim.

In 2014, one Bitcointalk user discovered a bug that made it possible to expose private keys for certain addresses. Many of the addresses originated from Blockchain.info. Long story short, he swept the coins from the vulnerable addresses to his own, informed the community, and got in touch with the owners to return their Bitcoin. He didn't want the problem to be discovered by someone with bad intentions. He saved over 870 Bitcoin be transferring them out from vulnerable addresses.

That list could soon be expended with the Central African Republic as the country has become the world's second nation that has adopted Bitcoin as legal tender. The only problem is that very few people have electricity there, let alone mobile phones and internet. Judging by some stats I found, around 11% of the population has access to the Internet. That's a bit more than 550.000 citizens. 14% of the total population have electricity in their homes.   

I have never used Samourai wallet, but I heard it being mentioned several times when the topic of discussion is mobile wallets. I have used Coinomi in the past and they offer a mobile wallet with coin control features. I am not recommending it because of its history of sending recovery phrases to 3rd party servers for spell checking. I am just stating a fact. @jaybee888 You should also know that the wallet is closed-source.   

I have never really though about it. I was always very impressed with Andreas Antonopoulos and his efforts to familiarize people with Bitcoin. You would expect someone like that who got in early to have gathered a significant amount, but Andreas didn't. He did own some Bitcoin from the early days but announced he sold everything to pay his debts and help his family. When Roger Ver made fun of him for not investing in time and getting rich, the community stepped in and he received donations of like 100 BTC or something like that. That's a pretty impressive thing. So my hero is the community who pooled their money together to help one of their own who deserved it.   

I don't remember coming across your posts before, but judging by this thread of yours, your predictions, and the quote above, you are a bit cuckoo. Good luck with that. Don't forget to ask for tracking ID so you know where your shipment is at all times. I am pretty sure all the nuclear superpowers will gladly sell their nukes to you.

Good luck with getting the world on board with abandoning fiat. I am sure no government would disagree to lose control of its currency and use whatever the person who has purchased all the world's nuclear weapons thinks should be used.

He says that more features (which also means more code) could create more possibilities to attack the software due to a vulnerability somewhere. In essence, his opinion is not wrong. The bigger the codebase is, the greater the chance that a mistake was made somewhere that was overlooked. His problem though is that he doesn't want people to question his own setup. But if he changed his own methods, there would be no reason for the Electrum developers to simplify their app and allow users to handpick what they want to install and what not. And even if they do, there is no guarantee that such a vulnerability wont be discovered in the most basic feature the wallet has.   

More like impossible as things stand right now. Unless some company starts manufacturing each hardware component themselves and decides to go a different route. Most of the times though, you will end up using chips produced by someone else and you will be asked to sign NDAs that restricts you from discussing anything publicly. Even if you discovered something nasty, it has to stay within the family.

There is great optimism for what Trezor is trying to do with the first ever open-source secure element, so let's see how that will work out.   

It should say that the company is working to make Bitcoin non-fungible. We are also introducing taint and giving ourselves the right to censor and restrict our users from using the services being offered. You will be deanonymized, your data will be collected, sold, and shared with government agencies and third parties. And nobody is forcing us to do it, we have made this decision ourselves.

Because it's expensive. It's easier to remove and ban slot machines in places where they don't need to be. In all honesty, why do they place pokies in cafés and clubs in the first place? It doesn't make the problem for a gambling addict easier if they can see them everywhere they go.

I don't see it as an unreasonable step at all. Confine gambling and slot machines to casinos because that's where they are supposed to be.   

I am very surprised to see countries such as Norway and Finland on a list together with some hardcore gambling nations. I have spent some time in Scandinavia in the past and gambling wasn't a big thing back in those days. I guess things have changed especially with the evolution of online casinos. I remember them as being quite passionate about horse racing and lotteries. But physical casinos and sportsbooks weren't that easy to find.   

World governments will never accept a money for the people. Stop dreaming. You are not supposed to be free, independent, and not rely on their control. If you are, they lose authority. Bitcoin will be developed and adopted side by side, but there will be a river that divides the two worlds. Nothing wrong with that as long as we have bridges to cross over on our own free will.

You forgot about one thing. You can work for Bitcoin. You can provide services and sell goods and receive Bitcoin instead of fiat. That way you don't have to purchase it like in your examples. Getting out of crypto is a bit harder, yes. Most people are looking to exit and exchange their crypto back to their native currency. Depending on where you live, you have some options to live on and use your Bitcoin only, but that entails using crypto payment cards and merchants that convert your BTC into fiat as soon as you pay. Check out Have you ever tried to live only on Bitcoin as an example.

DAI is the only stablecoin that can't be frozen in someone's wallet by the issuers. All others can. And it doesn't matter if it's an exchange wallet or your private cold storage. In that sense it's significantly different than centralized stablecoins.   

All secure elements are closed-source even in open-source hardware wallets. There is no such thing as an open-source, no NDA-having secure element. Not yet at least.

Not impossible, but harder. The passphrase mitigates the non-fixable hardware vulnerability that Trezor has, but the chosen passphrase has to be complex enough. Using "duck" as your passphrase is easily bruteforceable in contrast to a set of 6-8 English words, for example.   

OPs question was which one is the best. A mobile wallet installed on a device that is constantly online and uses all kinds of weird software and games that people download and install these days certainly doesn't fall in that category of one of the best options. Trust Wallet might work OK for you, but it remains a closed-source multi-currency wallet.

It's almost impossible to create a properly airgapped mobile phone. That entails removing all hardware that can establish a connection to the Internet. Mobile phones come with all kinds of antennas and you won't succeed in removing them without breaking the device.

The new models of the Nano X are terrible and shouldn't be purchased. In the first couple of years, its production was much better than what we see today.

I suggest you visit the hardware wallet section of Bitcointalk and look through the threads created there. Pay attention to how many problems there are with Ledger's Nano X device. If I wanted a new HW tomorrow, it would not be the Nano X.

I don't think it matters. The past can't be forgotten if they suddenly change their ways of doing business. Whoever is ready to scam once can do it again if the incentive is strong enough. 

ChangeNow doesn't require KYC, except when they do because of reasons X, Y, and Z. You can decide to refuse to undergo KYC and get a refund of your deposit, except if X, Y, and Z. We are a non-custodial service, but we can freeze your funds until you comply with our demands. They will have to do much better.

If a person insists on using an instant swaps platform, I think it's better to consult BestChange. Enter the crypto pair and see what the best available offer is. Don't forget to do some research on the exchange you will be depositing your coins to of course. 

Based on what the Casino Guru representative have written in the posts that were finally made public, LTC Casino lied about you playing 16 hours straight without a second of a break in between the spins. I remember even asking them a second time if each new spin starts immediately after the last one ended with no seconds apart, and they confirmed that to be the case. As we can see now, that's not true according to Matej from Casino Guru. You took brakes, changed the wagering amounts, and the number of played rounds per minute is different minute in and minute out. That doesn't sound like an automated script or betting software.

So you are basically seeking advice on the things that you can and cannot do in order to continue posting your twitter and discord links all over the place?
You want the community to tell you how you can do it more effectively in the future.

I thought he wanted to join a band called Red Trust and the idea of this thread was to list several reasons why that would be a good idea.  

I understand what you are saying, but at least you can skip one of those steps. The images don't have to be downloaded from the source to your computer. Imgur allows you to paste the URL of a picture and it then does it for you. Doesn't change much, but at least you don't have to download them to your PC. You also have to paste one URL at a time, which is a pain in the ass if you plan to use dozens.
