5601  Economy / Reputation / Flag on a scam advertising 100% win rate, Double Spending tool on: December 25, 2019, 02:52:54 PM
The profile being discussed is - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2393134
As per these threads,
1. How to win 100% at wixiplay.io Archived - http://archive.is/riMgw#selection-519.4-527.53
User talks about depositing money on another site to get it into the deposit of wixiplay.

2. Fomero.com >> Leading Double-spend tool for blockchain-related projects in 2019 Archived - http://archive.ph/lVdWk

Again here that site is being talked about.

User evaded the question about the site controlling private keys from both the person who is depositing and the owner of the site (user in question) - making it very likely to be a scam site:
http://archive.ph/lVdWk#selection-4197.0-4199.144

I consider the user to be not one who is trustworthy and thus I will raise a newbie/type-1 flag and use this thread as reference. Feel free to support or oppose this flag as you deem fit.

Flag - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1109

Update 22/01/2020
New alt - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2749949
The user being accused is found to have created a new account as per posting habits of the same site - Archived http://archive.is/GB3jY
Hence this user is also being given a negative trust. Thanks @Coolcryptovator

5602  Economy / Lending / Re: Why borrow here when you have a collateral? on: December 25, 2019, 08:37:22 AM
Local lenders offer pretty cheap rates. Credit unions, etc.
The go for them. Why bother asking here?

You may have forgotten that loansharks in real life have their own debt collection agents who are none less that retired army vets and bouncers. You dont want to get beaten by that crew in the middle of the road extorting the money when you are late for your repayment. Its the reason why loansharks were considered to be a part of the mafia at one time.

Compared to that, ask a non collateral loan here and you manage to acquire it by any method, you can just run away when you wish and rarely you have anybody chasing you or gunning you down.
Quote
Are there  advantages when it comes to loans here?
Like I said, no debt collection goons running after you on being late. But for those honest borrowers this is agood method fo pawn their altcoins to get bitcoin as loan and use that to trade and make a profit and complete the loan payment.
5603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: two gambling games that are players favorite on: December 25, 2019, 08:32:25 AM
The Dice game is still quite confusing for new people by understanding several features. For me, what is easy to understand is Roulette and HiLo games.
Why do you think so? I think dice is the easiest to understand because with the UI of any of the dice sites in the internet you can see the bet amount, payout and the multiplier. There are also additional options like stop/loss, roll under or over and so on. With a few trial rolls anybody can understand how to play the game. Whether it will be profitable for them is another topic altogether.

Roulette on the other hand might need a bit of preparation and HiLo is a fun game where people often get addicted with the cards.

the more difficult my day on trading day,
I hope you know that everyday is not the same for a trader in day trading. One fine day you open the markets to see every coin in the opposite side. Dont get disheartened, because it is common.

some speculation and predictions that I make are always wrong,
Every prediction has a 50% chance of being wrong anyway.

Quote
and to get profit now it is very difficult for me to get it, are there any other ways and ideas for me to increase my trading, so that I can get a little benefit , please advise and input by the big traders here or those who have more experience in day trading?
What coins are you trading? If you are going for altcoins you may see more unpredictable movements than you would see with bitcoin. Although bitcoin can act strange at times due to short term pumping and dumping by many groups still its overall weekly performance is remaining below the 5% mark.

Study the market indicators, you may get the idea of how to use them to predict. But always be ready for the unexpected.
5605  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for the low to buy more Litecoins on: December 25, 2019, 08:19:23 AM
Litecoin dipped under $40 a few days ago, I am looking for prices under $30 to buy more.  I could buy maybe a couple hundred LTC, depending on the price.
Surely that is the good option now. Since the market is dipping for litecoin you can and should stack on some LTC before the new year. However do note that market for litecoin has been on the downtrend for quite some time now compared to what bitcoin has been. Bitcoin has risen and fallen though within 5% +/- but litecoin has been coming down from 100$ to 50$ gradually to this price now.

Be careful with your money here. It is a good coin to keep for pumping and dumping or storing as a separate value from bitcoin.

Say, you hold a Medium / Wordpress blog or you do YouTube content, or you have lots of subscribers / followers in your social media.

And apparently, you notice guys who trying to tell the world about their great idea.
There are hundreds, thousands of those people everyday.

Or they already developing MVP. Or they just finished MVP.
First one would like to check that MVP and the idealogy of the project before moving further.

Quote
They don't have a shitcoin and they don't ask for investors standing on a chair on every birthday or funeral. All they ask – a bit of support.
Yeah I heard that story a lot of times. End of the day the truth is that "Money speaks" and it is the things that makes people do work. Any project out there asking for support is another non-begging way of asking for money.

Quote
If you like their idea, would you accept making content about them and not getting any money (I mean only money) in the begining?
Nobody does anything without money. There is always the under the table deal with youtubers even when they say that they are not being paid for it.

winnings I’m tempted to give those strategies a shot.
You may wish to do the same as another winner. But bear in mind that the end result is just based on luck and when you decide to stop the game. The long term simulation of any "strategy" is a loss for the gambler mathematically which can be proven. The profit graph may go up at which point you have to cash out, but again the profit may never happen in case it can be a total loss.

Besides the maximum bet outcome is limited and martingale is based on the assumption that the bankroll of the player is infinite, which is not the case in reality.
5609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Purposes to play gambling, except being rich on: December 24, 2019, 08:09:02 AM
Are there any other common purposes of a gambler why he/she plays gambling daily?
The only purpose is to earn money that is the notion when they first enter a casino. However much they try to cover it up by saying that they are gambling for fun, it is not so. They may go out with friends because they want to have some fun but in reality they are out there to make money.

Note that many hackers also gamble to "test" the site and locate vulnerabilities. For them it has a purpose, either black hat or white hat. But that is all.

Remember that many gamblers are not addicts, they dont play everyday, rather play when they have some cash to burn and they dont want to keep that money in the bank.

if you have a strong knowledge in trading or investment, confidence is not a problem that is an issue there is your strategy, someone has different strategies for success, you must understand yourself
I dont think confidence comes from knowledge of trading. one can be theoritically very strong in trading but does that make then a confident one? Rarely a person of this sort would actually be trading. They would apply for a post of financial manager who are literally involved in pumping and dumping coins by whales acting as middlemen between whales.

But then those who are jumping in to trade are mainly risk takers not looking for a stable income from trading itself. Whether they are confident about a certain investment depends on their belief or how stubborn they may be.
5611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin Bounty project Day by day incresase? on: December 24, 2019, 07:32:22 AM
I've noticed that crypto projects are increasing day by day? Is it true?
Depends on the person who is saying it. They could increase in number or decrease in number, but these are just numbers. As they describe quantity and not quality. These altcoin projects have some idea in mind or just vaporware. Either way they are not going become the next bitcoin - if anyone is telling you that then they are going to scam you one day before they build their trust, confidence scam.

99% of the ICO/IEO/ Initial Blah blah offering is worthless.

If you are looking to invest money, go for bitcoin first and then if you feel like taking a risk, try the top 10 altcoins except the forked coins and USDT.

You having amnesia of the gambling habit?

i didnt know what to do messaged them through faq and email.
  They have a thread here and TheQuin maintains their thread, you can message him directly as well. Read what @cissrawk wrote.

Quote
i started checking internet i saw similar problems in forum that freebitco admins/bot automatically play multiply btc.
Where did you see that? Remember that false accusations by gamblers are common as a raged attempt to defame a site without proof because they could not control their gambling habit.

Quote
so i checked it was the same case i didnt even play multiply btc but freebitco showed i played and lost in jackpot which i didnt even ticked in first place nor played i was shocked.
Stop lying. Provide the screenshots that show these actions if you want to provide a substantial accusation and not another "he is a thief because I think so thread".

Quote
dont know if it is technical problem are anything. just dont deposit anything in your freebitco account. also if did anyone faced similar problem how did you solve it? did they refund your btc?
I had won ther 200$ faucet roll of 10k number and they paid me in the next payout cycle promptly. I am sure there would not scam you for a meagre 22k satoshis.

Provide the proofs or GTFO. Roll Eyes

5614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Simulation/Machine Learning Effects on Gambling on: December 23, 2019, 07:02:17 AM
I am a little bit curious about this because  my boss just told me last week that on their country, they have tools maybe software that predicts or simulate the horse racing game (not sure if this is an A.I.).
Just think of it this way, if it was possible to get huge profits by simulating the horse race getting to know the outcome before the race happens, do you keep that a secret for long? Everyone in the world would know about it and they would talk about it, thus making it a very popular "bot" (!) But that did not happen.

Quote
He said most of the people using that kind of tool/servce are winning a huge profits.
Quote
This thing is just like, you don't need to analyze or think anymore, you will just place your bet.
So obviously this "boss" of yours is a con-man attempting to scam you. It like saying "hey, I got a fullproof method to win" - always a scam. It is a casino game which depends on a lot of factors and often matches are fixed. You cant expect to simulate every factor to get a win, because the outcomes will vary a lot too. You may think about a weighted average but still its not a method to win every game.
5615  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are there any trading chat rooms? on: December 23, 2019, 06:54:24 AM
There are telegram groups for everything today, just like there are reddit subreddits for everything you can think of.

Point is, what is the use of joining them? Are you looking for making a quick cash by listening to whales? Then you are mistaken. Whales do not share their trading methods or their pump and dump signals. They work alone or with personal groups which are never made public.

If someone is claiming to be a aggregator of whale signals then they are lying and trying to scam you by pumping their own coins and while you think they will go up and buy them the owner will sell their coins to make cash while you are left with a bag of shitcoins.

This should get into the heads of every newbie trader out there. Trading is not a get-rich-quick scheme, there are scammers everywhere and you have to learn trading instead of listening to others to give you "signals".
5616  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: The big idea crypto Mining farm in antartica on: December 23, 2019, 06:43:59 AM
Will be here any investors into this project?
Depends on whether you are asking for money without having developed it or halfway into developing and now asking for some funding. It seems you are in the first group which is 99% of the projects that are posted here.

Quote
At least it will be something interesting in our boring lifes Smiley
I prefer the clam and so-called "boring" life than giving out money to projects without MVPs and then dying with the anxiety created from how much return they would give.

Quote
So the idea is to build mining farm in antartica
Quote
They say that crypto mining need gold place so I guess antartica is right place for mining farm location Smiley
Where did you find this statement?

Besides the cold temperature which is a plus point, you have to check electricity prices and maintenance costs for the mining farm too. Without those how are you going to keep it running?

But first of all you need to survey the area or at least get ownership of an area. Not sure how you would do that in Antarctica without some large scale funding for which this forum is obviously too small.
5617  Economy / Reputation / Re: Trust abuse by Atobmixer on: December 22, 2019, 03:34:56 PM
That didnt happen , so lets not talk about something that never happened,
Thinking that a person wearing a signature is always biased is a wrong assumption and if you deny it then you are clearly suffering from a problem to justify a statement.

Quote
its clear you Chip mixer agents are highly motivated to talk trash about all other mixing services without even testing the system.
Where is the proof of this assumption?

Quote
every other service is a scam except chipmixer according to this agents.
A scam that is proven is a scam, to everyone except the person operating the scam, just like for a thief the robbing of money is not a crime. Who are these "agents"?
Quote
whatever, i am not in the mood to continue this pointless argument, we were doing our own work peacefully, now you chipmixer agents have made this man on a mission.
Why not develop your project in a way that people are not going to call it scam? If you think CM is trashing your sales do something unique that gives you a vantage point and an edge to catch customers. Just because this forum allows free speech does not mean you can go around abusing its trust system. You will be punished for that. Now what you have done makes you look more shady. You have a right of remaining silent and you lost it too.

5618  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction at its Worst! on: December 22, 2019, 06:46:10 AM
The real issue is that you never know exactly the time when you are getting addicted to gambling.
There is no such time. More like a period. There are some signs, like taking time out from friends and family to gamble, taking money from savings and emergency funds to spend on gambling, fights with spouse for gambling etc. Cheesy

Quote
Everyone tries to gamble in the beginning just for fun but end up in getting addicted.
Not all of them. Some understand that it is making them addicted and stop gambling. Its rare but it can happen if you have the willpower.

Quote
Of course people don’t want to waste their energies on an addict to make him or her normal person. They need therapies and even their families support them only in the start. No one is ready to pay for their therapies. This is why separations happen.
During the first stages of addiction friends and family can play an active role in the de-addiction process but the person needs to use their own willpower and determination too. However in later stages rehab becomes necessary.
5619  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think of the current status of Bitcoin? on: December 22, 2019, 06:41:20 AM
This year bitcoin has become open to the world.
Can you give some examples as to how?

Quote
There are countries legalizing it this year.
I have been following the news and no such news came in front of the table. There would have been a huge pump in the market if that would happen. Care to share some light into this?

Quote
Many also bashes and speculations came crazy like the goggle having new technicalities so as to hamper bitcoin processes.
Those are some FUD statements which had been debunked long time back. Just that people like to repeat things over and over again.

Quote
Speculations that bitcoin will be gone.
Funny thing is that the same people disappear when bitcoin price rises and become "dead" and comes back to "life" when prices drop again. Much like zombies. Cheesy

Quote
However, in terms of market value bitcoin is somehow steady on the 3rd and 4th quarters.
Steady is good but traders dont like a sideways trading or a steady market. They want movement and lack of movement makes them desperate for more risky trades.

Quote
Despite of everything, bitcoin still exist and will continue to exist.
Of course it will. It is decentralized and censorship resistant.
5620  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The True Decentralized Exchange on: December 22, 2019, 06:37:26 AM
Although a DEX gives a person a sense of decentralization we cannot keep the community safe from getting scammed by the DEX. Look at what happened with IDEX, they exit scammed and now they cannot be sought after by authorities, thus all the funds assumed lost unless something good happens.

This constant compromise between DEX with scams and CEX with KYC will go on and on unless governments do something to allow people to trade freely. I guess CEX would be the safer option, not that they cannot be hacked, but chances of exit scam is less.

Truely decentralized exchange seems like that 100% efficiency thing - a false statement.
