For how long? I dont think these punks will stop unless they have been caught and put inside the box. Taking advantage of others are their thing and its like a habit already that cant be stop. For a typical scammer doing things like what OP mentioned is normal and since they started that path there is no way they can go back cause even they wanted to change for the better, there is part of them that dig their history of scamming. Well they say you can forgive but will never forget.

If ever there is scammer who wanted to change, people will reluctant to these anymore. Once trust is broken you cant fixed it the way it should be.

Im sure they dont have time, they are busy finding good bounty at the moment. 

A news just popped in about newly appointed Digital asset global head Matthew McDermott is interested and firm to embrace blockchain and digital assets.


In addition, he also expanding their team by hiring Oli Harris as their head of strategy. Mr. Harris is known for the launching of JPMCoin last year JPMorgan's digital asset. Seems banks are coming in. I wonder if these executions will be a threat to our precious BTCitcoin.

Ive got motives when I dumped my coins and that is to purchase a better coins/tokens. Usually I am in favor on some projects that are big and stable. But of course the situation changed. Like now the defi is really a trend and I must say that tokens introduced on these project are worth gambling. So whenever I earned from bounty tokens aside from bitcoin eth and bnb, Ive wagered my chance to these new tokens ^{( but this is not a financial advise its up to you what to do on your own)}.

Sometime it gives me profit sometime not. But dumping coins will not reflect who you are. Its how you used your funds in some way you can generate income.

Also when they contact you and deal using famous telegram with an affiliated account here. Like they will impersonate highly reputable members and asked you to message them via telegram chats.

OP you must always check the site credibility, reputation, domain, affiliation on social and feedbacks. Well sometime feedbacks are being faked too.

Sorry for you and your friends loss. Lesson learned be vigilant to other people when your looking for something.

Ive read before the issue on Uniswap when BZRX launches their IDO but as Ive read the article the author explained how the guy made 500k usd but not in the form of hack but incorporate a defi trading bot. As far as Ive known, using bots on trading is common its just happened that we can see now the cons of smart contract where it can be easily penetraded by the likes of this. Im not sure whether this included or considered as hack history. Actually the guy is smart. Does he violate any rule on dex? Not sure but this could be raise on authority as one of the example of threats on defi business.

These are parameters Ive often used. Honestly Im not relying on candle stick not because Im having hard time getting used to it, but the part where I applied the keypoints and never still got a good result. Anyway, there are some indicators work on our own style. As long as profit lingers on my own technique then I called it trading strategy. It depends on what method trader will used and how it works for them perfectly.

Much better termed is analyze. Since its trading aspect you need it and not just the capability to read it.

Seriously with the news you shared? Wth, Im not a pessimistic guy but the way it happened doesnt sound coincidence anymore.

Too much for a conspiracy theory, but If someone created a thread over that topic might be a good debatable but must be on Politics Board. But thanks for sharing though!

Seems I tried to be positive but some users here tend to pulled some news related but anyway, like everyone said we must not focus on the negative side but hope for those been affected.

I like your last piece design very unique, excited to see what you can do next. But dont be so confident to stay as winner everyone here probably starting to visualize their design or piece of art ( including me). Good luck though.


Cool design, you sure she'd only 3years old? Thats what you called talented at an early age. If she's gonna join Loyce make sure she is familiar with Kangaroo since there is a concept for this contest.   anyway the reference is a cool one.

In addition, instead hearing from famous news site you read everyday. Why not confirm those rumors on the project itself which Im sure they can confirm if details out on the news are accurate or some kind of a fud only. This is an effective way to filter all hype news and shills. We never know, these influencers/paid sites or bloggers are very powerful for a typical reader.

This is a laymans term to those technical approach to trading which newbies have a hard time to grasp. Image and calaculations are well shown and clear. Thumbs up with this tutorial.

On the other note, this is right. OP if you used any material or at least refer to a particular site or paraphernalia for describing some methodology here, might as well put some reference. But I think the example given here is made by him but referred to particular source.

Funny using LoyceV as an example of trader on altcoin project (ctsi). Not sure if his ever interested on specifics alts aside from BTC. Anyway it just an example. 

Agree, with cases of covid19, I think terrorists groups will be so busy dealing with their own health precaution. People should really think of it as a tragic accident which falls on the owner of the said establishment containing tons of ammonium nitrate.

To be honest Im still in shock seeing my newsfeed on Facebook as the topic is everything about Lebanon incident. I do wish forum users maybe through known Charity groups here on forum like @cabalism13, @Royse777, @Irfan_pak10 and others could extend a help through anything thay could support the affected people on Lebanon. Still in shock mode, why why why this happened.

Binance is my favorite hub Ive seen this announced and got listed, it got some pump but still it got dumped again. You cant blame them, you know how popular Binance and its volume is good as well.

I have followed some influencers on altcoin space not because I love their sentiment about crypto but sometime its quite funny how you read their lines just to shill or create fud. Who would forget these guys especially the two on the left?



Also here are the top 35 influencer based on Bitcoin.com


Some are credible and some are obviously shillers. Thats how price marked in the market. I believe some of these guys are really influence the market. Example CZ, when he tweet the community reacts fast. For those who can ride out the hype and earn profits then good for you. But like mostly said here if you will be influenced by them make sure you are aware and ready for the possible loss if it turns out the other way around.  For those influencers just started to grow you can noticed how their supported project line up on their channel/page ^{these are paid actors you would want to avoid.}. Just my 2cent, rely on TA 60% and give your FA a solid 30% the remaining, depends on strategy.

Who would forget this guy. He offered free design and in fact his the one who designed this avatar hat used by many BestChange Participants.

When I encountered him and asked for free logo and avatar he never attempt to ask for payment so I was shocked about his cases posted about scam. When I read couple of accusation to him at first I thought maybe its not true or he just got framed but unfortunately until this thread of OP came out then thats it. He really intentionally did this!

Sorry for your loss OP.  I do hope most lenders be strict to those who always applied for loan especially big amounts cause we never know when some guys only using reputation as bait to get huge fund then exit.
