i got scammed by etherdelta . they have stolen all my tokens and ethereum from my ethereum wallet . i shared my private key via "import my account " on https://etherdelta.com . can any one please tell me , if above link is a fake link or i have been scammed by ether delta. i saw my transaction on ethrscan.io , all my stolen money is transfered to etherdelta's wallet for the conversion from ethereum token to ethreum. and then it was transfered to another wallet which has ethereum worth 65,000$ . can any one suggest me , how can i file a complaint against etherdelta?? On my first read up on this situation im confused that etherdelta becomes scam or do scam someone knowing that this is a decentralized exchange which means they dont have the control of your myetherwallet and so on when i read up about the real mistake was on inputting the keys and address on a phishing site which is the cause of such loss. It would normally shows etherdelta on the transaction since most erc20 tokens are being traded on there and hacker did already exchange them once they transfer. Sorry for your loss man thats quiet a big amount.

An unidentified 36-year-old man who owns has lost over $117,000 in Bitcoins while he was logged in on a public wireless network.. An unidentified 36-year-old man who owns a Bitcoin account has lost more than 100,000 euros ($117,000) worth of Bitcoins while he was logged in on a public wireless network in a restaurant in Vienna, Austria.. The Austrian police, however, claimed that they are still investigating whether the victim’s account was already hacked before he opened his account on the unsecured network, CBS reports. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-account-holder-loses-100k-over-public-wireless-networkNo matter how he would tell those authorities regarding on his lost bitcoins it cant be reverted or take it back.This is the risk when you carelessly logged in on Public wireless network on which this is really prone to hacks since anyone can possible deep in and can survielance on the possible informations that being inputted while you are logged in into the network.Hackers can anytime go into your account once they do have the credentials or the informations needed on such access. This is why we should be always aware.

Guys, is ir possible to buy not some stuff in shops like ebay or amazon? I way to buy ukulele, and spent some btc. How can indo it?
You can use up your bitcoin on buying but by the use of purse.io as far as i remember because this thing is the way i do purchase something on amazon. You would need to use the service of purse.io. Complications of accepting bitcoin as a mode of payment would really be there specially on confirmation times. Scaling solution would really be suggested. how many hours waiting time would really be not a good thing for consumer or users view.

Hi guys,
Last Friday I could not log into my coinbase account. I saw that an ETH transaction was initiated from my account, and it was done by a Russian hacker. Those guys are good... Fortunately they have not sent much.
Today I received an email from coinbase saying that a Russian phone was trying to get into my account. Then I clicked on declined, and I get this bright red website saying that it is a malware etc...
I am sort of freaking out, not sure whats going on and weather my remaining funds are still there. Perhaps my computer is infected as well. I've called Coinbase and they said that they would escalate this top top priority but still nothing. I've been a user since 2013... I feel completely abandoned by them.
Anybody had the same issue recently?
In any case, avoid Coinbase at all costs. Kraken came back to me within 4 hours on a Saturday, that's a big difference. And they don't get hacked...
Best
Nicolas
I suspect that your computer do have a virus since those warnings are popping out but its quiet unusual that even opening an email would give that alert.Coinbase support do really suck they would promise you on top priority but later on you would be forgotten.I have experience this and the thing you should do is to contact them again regarding on your issue and if they wont answer then send multiple times until they would able to answer you.For now if you do have still ETH on your coinbase account then better to move it out before its too late.

i apply some airdrops. until now i get about 0.8 eth from airdrops.. just few airdrops with good prices
That's huge pal. I think you you got it from scammy e-versions of btc or color versions of bitcoin and ethereum airdrops because that is also where I got my biggest profit from airdrop which is .50 eth. Now, other airdrops all want to do phishing or donation or asking for payment. I used only one airdrop and it didn't bring me much profit, but reading all these posts i am thinking to join every single airdrop. I never looked at airdrop as something which can give me money but some users here are saying that they are earning nice money. I will give it a shot, can you tell me how airdrops are phishing users, i don't understand that? In which way? Its not necessary to join all airdrops, just joined on those who do have potential not just on those coins that are just going with the hype. Phishing attempts is possible either on slack which they mimic such sites like mew. When you are a newbie you would easily fall but if you do have expert eyes you would really see the difference. I have earned decent amount on airdrops too but i have stored lots of shitcoin too its just really a matter of chance on hitting up the right one. Just join if you able to do so since they not requiring too much time to register on their airdrop.

Using multiple platform allows for arbitration, but your volume of trade is still a bit tiny to go for that (because of transfer fees), but also it gives you a security when a coin is delisted (does happen quite often) and gives you a wider choice of assets to trade on. Hush for example (a relatively minor crypto) has been very good for day trading low volumes against USDT for the last six months, nicely oscillating between 1.4 and 2, just the type of chart that makes you fall in love with an asset.
Arbitrage trading is really profitable but same as you said fees will really kill you and the delay of such transfer in any exchange we do know network isnt fast all the time which would cause delays that would result on missing the opportunity to make money. We do have different choice of coins but seeing on the capital of 0.1 of doing day trading is just sufficient and the rest would really already depend on your skills on how you gonna handle that kind of bankroll and with that having a price goal amount.

There is no need of an stopping to the ICO. These were the elements of funding startup and very few get initiated with the plan of scamming investors. In my view ico can be regulated, but there is nothing wrong taking place to stop it. As the upcoming generation grows with technology these will serve as an support system.
Not only a few but lots of them.There are lots of scam ICO's out there which being created just for the sake on scamming its investors.If you do try to disseminate you would really able to tell the partition on legit and a completely fraud funding this is why it turns out to be a big challenge for investors or even on those legit project to find investors because the money have been divided and been wasted out because of those fraud. Stopping isnt possible unless if this thing is being regulated already then its possible.

After a month of hard work I have to pay quite a lot of things. I just got one about 200$ to invest in bitcoin. Should or should not. Please help me ! ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) You are still lucky that you do have still money left inspite on paying up lots of things like bills,obligations and other stuffs. Since you do only have $200 left then i would suggest that you should only invest on the amount that you can afford to lose up since investing on bitcoin isnt an assurance that it will make you rich someday.Anything have its own risk and you should really be aware on that one.If im in your situation i would invest 50% on bitcoin and the other 50% would be put in my savings and it always advisable to have savings in fiat.Dont go all in.

Yeah that is right you can bet on the price without having a coin but it looks like you would have... The main different here is that you will be never able to spend that "coin" for anything. You can only bet with CFD on market. To be honest it is nothing else what traders are doing currently with bitcoin. As you said with keys. But here is a little different that bitcoin's traders are able to spend their coins for any goods any time. The CFD concrat won't give you this chance. By the way the CFSs contracts seems to be interesing idea.
well i believe some bitcoin owners didnt own because they invest it for good and theres nothing left behind on thier wallet .they are really smart and they are really experience person they know they can gain on investing and trqding with bitcoin that is why they use all thier btc or maybe they convert it inyo fiat then save. Yes exactly, some of bitcoin owners dont own bitcoin probably because they already sold their own. Others early adapters already sold their own bitcoin because of the currently price is very expensive. And, most already convert into fiat using it emergency purposes or use it in daily expenses. This is correct. We do have the freedom on how we gonna use our bitcoin and its not really necessary for us to store it specially when we are in need of money specially on emergencies or any possible plans in your mind. Some do actively sell it once they do attain it and thats what happening on my side which i do sell them off once i do earn them.I dont plan for future savings as long i do earn money.Dont hate me since i do need money for daily basis and its not necessary for me to follow what others doing as of now.

More and more airdrop is a lie, I do not recommend participation in airdrop, because there are at most a few 100 airdrop quality, so I think it should not be a waste of time.
Agreed on this statement this is why i do left already on airdrop matters since they are not worth to waste of my time. When we do compare airdrops back in the past those are the good days which most of them do really give big amounts of coins and do have capability to have value after its being distributed which we can able to make money on those times but on now they are becoming strict. Requirements tighten but the rewards have been decreased and yet ending up on recieving a shit coin that doesnt have value later on.

China's direction in this is clear.
Early in 2018 they will launch a blockchain based coin linked with wechat and allied with Alibaba. Because it will be instantly useable to more than a billion people for all daily shopping actitivites it will quickly spread beyond China and become the dominant coin.
Also, all the miners located in China will switch to the wechat coin, leaving the other coins with huge problems.
Would you mind to share the link about the news? I cant able to find it. If this news is true then wechat coin would only benefit chinese people since it is just focusing for their own people. I have seen that they are already using digital payments. I just forgot the name. I dont think miners would leave out specially on bitcoin. There might be some possibility of such switch off but i cant think that they would rather focus on new coin than on the established one.

Anything that claims to give out huge returns in a short period of time turns out to be a ponzi scheme. Bitconnect might be a ponzi scheme too but the thing is it has been designed in such a way that everybody in that platform makes a profit. I don't say Bitconnect will last forever but it is a good opportunity now to invest in it since the platform will run atleast for more than 1-2 years which is more than sufficient to get the investment back with profits. Just 4 months are enough to get the capital amount back through daily interests and then after that just wait and watch your money grow.
Imagine reaching out ROI for a short span of time isnt an indication for a legit investment and the primary reason why her girlfriend did invest on bitconnect because he was blinded on those returns. The same story on all eho did invest on this coin.Imagine out continous interest for a short period of time. I can say that it wont really sustain for too long even in 2 years period. No one knows on when this thing to collapse as long we are making money and already gained roi then just go with the flow.

I don't day trade, I find it very stressful. More often than not I hold my bitcoins for as long as I can. However, I have traded in the past, and not just cryptocurrencies. If you are receiving less btc than you had before initiating the Lisk trade, I consider it a loss. The btc - usd price has no bearing here.
Lets assume the price of bitcoin drops, what then? Would you still consider it a profitable trade? I doubt it.
This is why i did stop on becoming an active day trader because it do really give me stress rather than enjoyment on engaging into trading field.I have experienced forex trading and stocks. Being scalper isnt really easy since you would really need to be active when theres sudden movement on prices.How much more on bitcoins or altcoins. Prices are way too volatile you should have active eyes,active thinking and have active hands. hehe

How many video cards do you have in your country? I'm from Russia here are my numbers.
570 4gb 296 580 338 vega 56 720 vega 64 762
1060 3gb 254 1060 6gb 296 1060 mining edition 254 1070 508 1070 ti 593 1080 627 1080 ti 966
Just to ask. How did you get those numbers? You do have in relation on some shops or even to the distributor which you do able to know the accurate numbers of GPU in your country. Those numbers might be big on some eyes but on this crypto forum those numbers are not sufficient knowing that GPU demands are already high because of the booming crypto mining industry. For now i dont have any idea on how many gpu do available on my place but im quiet sure that they are really running out of stocks because some do bought on bulks.

... but what make it interesting is that crypto's are using blockchain technology which is decentralized, has privacy and transparency so there came the new hope to those who want to have financial freedom.
Fiat money (as we have today) is not the only way for the imperial elites to control the world. (In fact, I believe it's one of the less desirable, from their point of view.) Remember, before Bitcoin, there was silver and gold. Those are decentralized, anonymous, and limited-supply too. What the elites did back then was to hold enough precious metals to sell them at a fixed paper-money price. This was effectively a suppression of gold and silver so the elites could continue to print money and debt. (It was called the 'gold/silver standard.') But they lost most of their gold this way, and don't yet want to embarrass themselves by 'pegging' to gold and silver again, at a price high enough to maintain stability, which would be much higher than today. After Bitcoin (and cryptos) has risen to a high enough level, the elites will do to it the same thing they did to gold and silver. This has been my whole thesis of why Bitcoin and cryptos are allowed/driven to go up. Nice presumption and i do agree on that things that you do explain on here. Elites would really find a way to control over things because they do have already the motives on their mind regarding on the plan that being already set out incase they would able to succeed. They might regret for some actions but they would really need to take the risk for the benefit or success of their own plans. Just like you do illustrate on Gold/silver, there would really be regrets but they dont take it seriously since they are already benefited and now they would possibly jump in again on new era which they can see that theres money involvement.

so my tether deposit will add to my balance or another thing ??
Does it shows pending on your status or transaction history? If yes, then most likely they would credit it soon. Just like what happen on my eth transaction.It still keeps on loading up and stuck for how many hours already.I didn't notice the announcement that they are having maintenance on ETH wallet which they don't really accept withdrawal or deposit which causes for me to be caught in the middle and now I'm just waiting on what would happen next. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) if u mean " Latest transactions " no, I don't see it on there but I see my transaction in omniexplorer.info and it confrimed Have you tried to access the site again this time?I have the same situation with carlfebz2 which my eth deposits been stucked because of the maintenance but it is already credited into my account. Im sure you can able to see balance because everything went fine for now when im using the site as of this moment.They load up fast and they already fixed the load up issues last night as i have emailed their support regarding on the situation.

Hey guys today i have a special question. i am HODLing 11 different coins right now including bitcoin...it that too much or should i spread even more?
My opinion is make a wide spread so your dont have that big loss. on the other hand also not that big win...
What do you think?
Its much better if you do hold as much as you can but only on those coins which are really worth to hold on not just trying to buy any coin that you like and hold it off for years. This is just like gambling because you are hoping that coin would possibly pump up but situation does really depend because not all the times a certain coin do pump. Most of them do dump forever until they died. For now i am holding 20+ coins but not totally purchasing them but been accumulated on bounty campaign. Less risk since you dont pull out money from my pocket.

Some real ICO's couldn't find enough money to run the project, some just hit their softcap. Some fake ICO's make hardcap in a few minutes. So collecting money is not an indicator if project is scam or legit. You can see fake ICO's that collect money, actually laundering money. You can also see legit ICO's that couldn't get recognition from big investors.
This is what i observe too which most fake ICO do really reach their hardcap in no time even on pre-sale periods it is being sold out which it can contribute for the project to be hyped up even more when people see that theres soo much interest on that one. Without seeing on the other side which legit ICO's do commonly fail because of lack interest and didnt able to achieve their target funding.This is why ICO now becoming a business not totally on having the aim of new innovation and a great contribution either on online of offline world.

Why do I need not to give up my bitcoins? How does that going to benefit in the long run??
If you do like to earn profits then you would normally not tend to give up your Bitcoins since we do all know Bitcoin=Money and people do really loves money.Right? When it comes on benefits then it will really give an assurance specially on longer runs or future years to come that it will really pays you off on holding it but it would really depend on how much bitcoin you are holding on.These kind of questions doesnt really have point at all since we can able to answer it for our own selves.

You can go to the Marketplace > Currency Exchange in the forum and try to find out who is willing to trade with you, with your current rank and activity you will most likely need an escrow in order to have someone selling their Bitcoin to you. Also with an escrow involve in your transaction meeting with the seller is not needed anymore, just remember that when picking an escrow it must be a trusted one with a good reputation. In the currency exchange you can offer any kind of payment as long as the seller is accepting it, try to find out yourself. Is an Escrow similar to a Brokerage Service? Are those terms the same or different? If difference, what are the differences? Thanks Escrow do acts as a middle man in your transaction among the other party you have made an agreement. Both would really require to send bitcoin and the payment of yours equivalent on how much you did bought since you are buying bitcoin then seller will give you up on the latest or the recent exchange price of bitcoin at that moments.Once all required things have been set out then you will recieve those coins and also using escrows do have some fees but not to worry since they do charge up small amounts.
