Most of them have been things like Revolut and banking accounts which are KYC compliant or betting accounts which are also partial KYC for withdraw so they should not be allowed.

I think the forum should look to ban account selling it's not useful to anyone other than scammers who want to act like they have been active community members. 

While I know scam's are not actively deleted if people were unable to buy accounts with history it would be hard for these scams to even gain traction with noob accounts.

Something the forum should think about.

Just trying to do my bit I try target the account sellers and bank sellers and fraud services no one likes them and there not welcome quite surprised some of the account sellers ended up in the "bad" category.

That is very true DaveF,  I think also the fact that there are very few pools out there people plump for the ones that have the largest hash rate leaving out the likes of ck pool and kano now both are struggling now kano's last bock being mid December and ck's some time before that we also lost johnny bravo's pool and have seen may other fold under the conditions now.

It will be a true shame if we lose these pools the more I look at this the more it's looking like a whitewash by the large players to keep the small guys out the market but thing is if this happens and say something happens to the large players if there are no fallback pools and miners left out there your right the chain come's to a horrific stalemate.

It's concerning that the small pools are being forced out now this will only continue we really need more pools and better distribution of hashrate to resolve this or we will end up with 3 of 4 very very large pool basically the mining mafia.

The best way to earn merit is be a good member and make sure your post's are insightful and have good content, there are a lot of members here who merit those who show some drive and passion towards bitcoin and help keep the forum safe.

Other than that shit posting silly question or post with almost no content will find you in the cold zone where no one will interact with your post's so keep the following in mind.

1. Post only insightful information or valid questions that don't have 1000's of post's already answered.
2. DON'T Shitpost.
3. Be a good member and be active help new comers to the space and make them feel welcome.

I actually think there is another way they could take it over. We all know those three letter agency's love a zero-day to get what they want. 
Now what if a exploit in nodes and miners was being tucked away by them they could easy launch an attack to take over the miners already on the network in conjunction with an attack on the nodes this would be the most plausible way for them to take control over the network.

I for one believe that such an attack is highly possible people thinking they would need to buy miners is absurd when they could just exploit the ones that are on the network already.  Second to this is the fact they could also attack pool's to get the desired hash-rate to perform an attack.

Right now I think the focus should be on the centralization of the mining power with less and less home miners and small farms shutting down and being pushed out dew to power hungry 3kw units that are no use for home miners. 

This should be on the minds more than a state coming in and shutting it down lose the home and small farms and it's basically china and  the east than own bitcoin that should be more of a concern that anything also the number of pools that are about on the brink of shutting down will give the large players more of a the hashrate so the above becomes very relevant,  and quickly..

We are planning on it, we also have a HFT engine we are working on for the crypto market which is rather interesting but again we have no date on release yet still testing and working on the code.

First off you will want to look at the API documentation of the exchange your wanting to build for.  This would be a good starting point get all information you need to interact with the API.

Then it's selecting the language you want to use to create your trading system, lots of bots use python for CLI based bots but if you were looking to make something more professional then C# or C++ would be a good place to start.

It's by no means a easy task to create a trading bot we have a team currently developing a trading system for bitmex, binance and bybit.
You must also map out the features you want the bot to have like PNL tracking, Stop loss, Algorithmic trading, Manual Trading, Order creation & cancellation + a vast amount of other things to take into consideration.

You could also have a look at some of these projects and lib's that will be useful to the creation of a bot.


TALIB - Technical analysis and indicators

Alpaca SDK

Deedle - Exploratory data library for .NET (useful for creating backtest modules)

http://bluemountaincapital.github.io/Deedle/index.html


It is also advised if your planning on building one to use the bitmex testnet as this way you won't lose any funds while testing if your planning on creating a bot for this platform.


If you are looking for some more info the feel free to join us I sent you the join links to our community via PM as we are closed community at the moment.

I changed the name from Fools to High Rollers. 
Don't want to offend anyone friendly fills the list haha.

Looking like another fair bump in Diff too if things keep on this track!

Guys you deleted the last topic now you have this one I asked about the copyright from the game you have clearly just taken and modified the text of it to say satoshi.

I also contacted the ORIGINAL game owners and they stated you are not allowed to use this code in your game.

For the avoidance of doubt here is a copy of my original message to this team..


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c07SMWnGnpM    <----- Original Game

My question about this



The next day....



I have a feeling you took the source code and just edited the text to say satoshi and changed the gold to sats....

This is just going to be another scam attempt there videos are terrible and there is no actual video of the miner just some terrible looking dashboard that looks like a .net program just showing fake numbers.

Don't send this company any funds!!!

This may be of some interest to you

Seems BCT has turned into argument city recently.  
But if someone has alt accounts they should be banned.

Just click here and be gone.  Simple 

Super slim but it's been a while so lets hold some hope for b2b blocks I really wanted to check the average DIFF the solo pool was getting blocks maybe CK will have a record of the average DIFF we solve at would be interested to know.

I still hope one will be broken before 100 DIFF tall order but highly possible I think we just need a big push.

That being said don't forget the High Rollers group is active too.

0.125 BTC buy in PM's sent to signups already.




 

He's just trying to stay relevant I noticed Blockchain.com sent him a message offering to help him recover his funds.
Funny they don't do this for other's who lose coins there.

It's 12 bits of steak here i'm afraid guys!

OP_CODESEPARATOR is not used any more from what I can tell this was actually a security risk for bitcoin as per the post below.

The official info behind this would be as follows :

OP_CODESEPARATOR   
OPCode = 171   
Hex =  0xab   
Input = Nothing   
Output = Nothing   
Description = All of the signature checking words will only match signatures to the data after the most recently-executed OP_CODESEPARATOR.

The post below will give some more info related to this  OP code though it is no longer used as far as I can tell.

** Edit **

You can also read here some more info about it.

I'm holding for the larger group just looking for one or two more people for it so I'll hold off on this round but I wish you the best of luck.

Rest of the High Rollers I sent you all PM's just waiting to hear back from another contact see if he's joining us or not.

BTCBTC

What a lot of rubbish and the video is terrible quality too just like the content.

If you don't like bitcoin go somewhere else.  No one is forcing you to take part it's your own free will and choice.

Another thing that helps take the load off the initial download process is do it on your main machine then just copy the data to the PI HD I found this to be much better than leaving the PI to download the chain.

On the cooling side I have noticed some liquid cooling kits and some processor coolers like below, This one is called the Ice Hat seems to have had good reviews in the space and relatively cheap too




I think now we are seeing kit's like this come out the next round of PI may just come with some additional cooling and some more power I hope
