reputation and off topic would be appropriate for such topics. Drama does not happen very often and you can join the forum channel on Discord where forum related events can be discussed more quickly. If the topic is not locked and self-moderated, it will turn into dharma in its entirety.
622  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: someone pays 83.65 $BTC ($3,136,058) in transaction fees, overpaying by 120,258 on: November 24, 2023, 06:41:03 AM
Mostly a problem with the software or an error in passing the values. Instead of passing the value to the transaction, it is passed as a fee, and this is not the first time. It happened here Paxos Behind $500K Bitcoin Fee Overpayment For $2K Worth of BTC Transfer where the fee was about 20 bitcoins, and it was recovered here  Bitcoin Miner F2Pool Returns 19.8 BTC to Paxos After Overpaid Fee

Talked to my wife.  She tried to install a voice changer software yesterday from a link on twitter and it didn't install.  This is a windows 11 PC.  I see something new called WingFtpServer as a startup program. That has to be it. C'est la vie  Embarrassed  

    
If you have not installed that voice changer software, the hacker will not be able to easily access your bitcoins.
Wing FTP Server is a multi-operating system software that you can use to manage and supports multiple file transfer protocols such as FTP, FTPS, and SFTP. The program itself is not a virus, but if you connect to a server that has viruses, it may be downloaded to your device, but you still need administrator privileges to execute it. again, without executing these programs, it is difficult to be hacked unless you do it indirectly, such as Clipboard Hijacker Malware.
624  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can we avoid tax on crypto trading in india on: November 24, 2023, 06:13:55 AM
If the tax is calculated on local currency transactions, it is better to reduce the sale transactions in the local currency to one transaction so that you buy Bitcoin on today’s date and convert to stable currencies when the price of Bitcoin rises and buy Bitcoin again when it decreases with a 30% sale in the local currency. Therefore, you have paid a tax on 30%. % and increased your Bitcoin holding.
If the taxes are for all transactions, it is better to use a DEX such as BISQ, and then reduce the sale of stable currencies and keep a record.
In any case, try not to use CEX if taxes are imposed on all profits from all Bitcoin transactions, including profits from selling altcoins.
625  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Got hacked, lost 11 BTC on: November 24, 2023, 05:44:03 AM
I would like to believe you, but many accounts claim to have lost Bitcoin. Therefore, to make the discussion serious, can you sign a message from a Bitcoin address proving that 11 Bitcoins were sent from that address in the past days?

Have you updated Bitcoin Core and verified the signature? By reviewing your previous posts, you mentioned that you purchased Bitcoin in 2013. Perhaps you did not download the correct software.
626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin Holders Hesitant to Sell Despite Price Surge on: November 24, 2023, 05:36:04 AM
As much as these statistics express “diamond hands,” they indicate that investors still believe that the current price does not reflect the true value of Bitcoin, and there is a possibility that its value will increase with the passage of time, and these investors may start selling randomly whenever they lose hope that Bitcoin will rise, and this Concerns could escalate if Bitcoin does not rise to the levels of $100,000 or any price above $70,000 before the end of the year.

Glassnode statistics may give an impression of the general price trend, but they are not useful in predicting the value of Bitcoin.
627  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: OFAC-Sanctioned Transactions Being Censored on: November 23, 2023, 07:27:30 PM
Is this the second mining pool or the third that add OFAC list filter? It is unfortunate that these pools respond to pressure from the United States, but this will not change the nature of the decentralization of the network. If there remains one mining pool that does not adhere to these legislation and can be managed in countries that have a political stance towards the United States, then all the other mining pools will be forced to build on top of that block, but this means that transactions transmitted from addresses in OFAC blacklist will take longer on average than all transactions from other addresses.
628  Economy / Economics / Re: How come both the "gas" and "fee" prices shoot up without ETH and BTC move? on: November 23, 2023, 07:19:13 PM
In Bitcoin, there are no fixed fees, and they differ from one transaction to another, and the difference is not in the price of the transaction, but rather in the number of entries and exits, which basically determine the necessary fees after ensuring that they are sufficient to be added in the next block or several blocks according to your discretion. Ethereum works differently, and with proof of stake, fees will inevitably be lower on average, but the network has not been tested with full blocks like Bitcoin.

Let's turn our attention away from phishing scammers, I will make a small digression here by reminding all eligible users about this free raffle. 1 slot left for the Custom UniJoin Card. I am almost surprised that Unijoin's promoters are not interested in the possibility of receiving such a gift.

card design is attractive, but my personal problem is privacy issue. It is difficult to ship these cards without revealing your identity, in addition to the high shipping cost to my country.
If this is allowed, I will choose the number 1, provided that if I win, I will choose someone (from UniJoin list) who deserves this card.

Humans desire to get involved in Bitcoin because of the many conveniences Bitcoin offers including the opportunity to earn huge profits.
Investing is not available to everyone. Unless you have enough cash to pay your monthly expenses and obligations, you will not be able to invest. The more money you have, the greater the return on investment. Therefore, investing $10 will not make you rich, but continue to buy more Bitcoin.

A 4-year cycle is a sign that Bitcoin will peak again.
But before that happens, it seems that Bitcoin is still being tested with some bad news coming up,
such as CZ stepping down due to some issues that required the Binance CEO to step down.



We still have 4 or 5 of these cycles, so it will be similar to either the 2013 or 2017 cycle. In any case, the possibility of 50 thousand before the middle of the year is possible. CZ News will not effect prices.
631  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Should we care about the Proof of Reserves of the Exchanges? on: November 23, 2023, 05:59:56 PM
Tell me please which exchanges are the most reliable? So that they have full disclosure of ownership information. And so that exchange employees do not launder funds
What is your country and payment method you would use. Coinbase Exchange may be better if you want to transfer medium amounts and want good fees, and OKX or Binance if Coinbase is not available in your country. P2P DEX if you want to avoid KYC.
632  Economy / Economics / Re: World changing and those who don't adopt this Will stay poor on: November 23, 2023, 05:44:02 PM
CBDC, if it came, is a representation of paper money in a new form, as this money began as a security paper with a hand stamp, then a paper wax seal, then printed paper, then waterproof paper, then plastic and some plastics, and finally CBDC. Therefore, it is a development in the form of money and it is different from Bitcoin, which is considered a revolution in money. economy as it removed the need for centralization. It can be said that development is required due to the changes in the labor market.
633  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Zero Knowledge Proof: How helpful can this be to Bitcoin? on: November 22, 2023, 06:36:19 AM
From what I understand, Zero Knowledge Proof does not require a collective consensus and can therefore be run by node managers to reduce the space well, which means ease and speed of synchronization. Its impact on Bitcoin will be apparent in off-chain calculations, and on-chain implementation is only required if there is a dispute, so it may contribute to the development of Sidechains and daily use of Bitcoin.
634  Economy / Exchanges / Re: CZ officially bids goodbye to Binance. Will Binance Crash or still stand Strong? on: November 22, 2023, 06:17:50 AM
AFAIK, CZ was not just the CEO, but everything, and since he did not liquidate his shares in the company, he will have influence, and the new CEO will follow the same policies with which Binance tried to remain hidden for a long time. The repercussions of this decision may affect the price of BNB, but it is good that it came early because the market may receive it with a little negativity, especially if this matter is followed by the sale of many Binance currencies and assets. The price did not react negatively to prices.
635  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Zeal | a new competitor to other cryptocurrency wallets? on: November 22, 2023, 06:11:18 AM
the main goal of the Zeal platform is to solve problems such as lack of security, poor user experience and transaction fees. the project aims to be a digital cryptocurrency wallet with advanced security controls and free bank transfers. according to the press release, Zeal wants to set new standards in the wallet user experience when managing cryptocurrencies, using web3 applications and decentralized finance (dapps).

this is more like to crypto exchange than crypto wallet. I don't think it will be open source or will encourage self-custody, so it may be a competitor to the trust wallet or a new type of wallet that will meet regulatory requirements. The problem with such wallets is that they will focus on accepting more tokens and adding traditional verification methods such as 2FA, which will be very bad for privacy and more likely to be hacked.
636  Economy / Exchanges / Re: SEC Sues Kraken crypto exchange on: November 22, 2023, 05:58:09 AM
It appears that after the SEC's legal loss against Ripple, uncle Gary is beginning to crackdown on another popular company in the cryptospace.
This is not accurate, the SEC's legal action was not only against Ripple and Kraken, but their activity has increased in recent months. Go to https://www.sec.gov/news/pressreleases?aId=&combine=crypto&year=All&month=All which will give you search results related to cryptocurrencies and during this year alone there have been over 15 reports.
Kraken will not be the last, and it seems that they will continue with this until the end of the year to see after that whether the same materials will be allocated to them next year or not, but due to the popularity of some platforms, they appeared first, but they are targeting the entire industry.
637  Economy / Speculation / Re: The volatility volumes of Bitcoin is not the Will of man on: November 22, 2023, 05:47:11 AM
It is too early to say that the opportunity has been lost, because until the middle of next year the price may hover at the levels of $50,000, which is not much different from the current levels, but the price will begin to move from the month of June, and then we can say that prices have begun to move and that time will begin to run out, going through what will happen in 2025, but in the long term, it is assumed that more people understand that the lower the ratio of transaction fees to blocks reward, the more the 4-year cycles disappear and the more stable the price is, which means that fluctuations will not be forever.
638  Economy / Economics / Re: Is stagflatiotn upcoming? on: November 22, 2023, 05:33:32 AM
Recession and inflation are two terms we hear almost daily, but they are symptoms of many causes in the economy. These causes may be related, such that solving one of them will increase the problems of the other, or unrelated, so that one can be solved without affecting the other. The role of economists and central banks is to maintain a certain level of unemployment while Controlled inflation of around 2%, and this will not happen soon because of the increasing spending by the United States and the distribution of its debt throughout the world, and all governments that pay in dollars will bear this debt.

We will be in a cycle in which inflation/Recession will start to be higher than normal, but how bad it is will be decided by the state, meaning that we will not return to 2%, but inflation will be controlled.
639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Chatswap - a decentralized crypto exchange for social analysis on: November 22, 2023, 05:08:04 AM

How will you ensure that abuse is prevented, since the pumping team can register hundreds of accounts and fool the artificial intelligence that there is activity for traders to buy a specific pair?

I have already implemented methods to stop spamming of my API and to the chat.

This will be your main problem and solve it well. The presence of people who love to post may make the service you provide distinctive. Therefore, you must be careful and strict in identifying bots, otherwise the average number of individuals participating in the discussions will turn from a good tool into an attractive place for scammers to pump their codes.

Will you be able to display the trading results on the platform and the real-time prices so we can compare them?
Absolutely, real-time pricing exists right now if you select a pair and type in a value to trade.

So far, I am not convinced that the average number of individuals in discussions can help improve the quality of trading, but let us see the results and judge.
640  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Any alternative Bitcoin transaction accelerators to viaBTC? on: November 22, 2023, 04:49:32 AM

If you don't have a problem with the privacy of your tx, can you post the id of the transaction which was accelerated by this service? I don't trust this service and it is not recommended for anyone to pay them for an acceleration, the best i think they can do is rebroadcast your tx, and that isn't acceleration.


What difference will make if he post the id of the transaction? We cannot judge the service unless we compare several transaction IDs, and if they are all mined through one mining pool, then the service is reliable, but the website design, the date of domain registration, and the attempt to hide the data, and the absence of anything that confirms that they are connected to a mining pool is all reason enough to stay away from the service.
