The Russian people have a proverb: "there is a very small distance between courage and stupidity."
If someone shows his face to the camera, then he has serious protection or he is sick with an incurable disease and he has a very short time to live.
Recently, statements about Russian hackers have been in a political context.

There are three broad categories of stablecoins

"1.asset-backed off-chain: stablecoins whose price is pegged to fiat currencies like the US dollar or euro; commodities like gold; or other real-world assets. The ‘off-chain’ part of this name refers to the value being attached to collateral that exists off-chain. The biggest names in this category are all fiat-backed: USDT from Tether, with a daily trading volume that regularly exceeds $10billion, Coinbase’s USDCoin, TrueUSD from TrustToken, and GUSD from Gemini. In case you were wondering, fiat literally means ‘let it be done’, and refers to currency whose value is established by government decree, rather than direct 1:1 backing by an asset such as gold or silver. Supplies of fiat currency are determined by the central bank.

2.asset-backed on-chain: stablecoins that are backed by other cryptocurrencies (HUSD,DAI,EOSDT,WBTC..).

3.algorithmic: a combination of smart contracts and algorithms adjust the supply of the coins in order to maintain price equilibrium. An interesting example of such a project was Basis. Launched in August 2017, Basis intended to maintain a stable price by incentivizing traders to buy and sell Basis tokens in response to changes in demand. This would be achieved through on-chain auctions of ‘bond’ and ‘share’ tokens. After raising $133million in funds, Basis was unable to overcome the obstacle of the SEC’s likely classification of these bond and share tokens as securities. This meant severe restrictions would be imposed on these auctions, weakening the stabilization method, among a host of other issues. As a result, CEO Nader Al-Naji elected to return the funds to their investors and shutter the project."

If stablecoins from points 1 and 2 very often come up and they are known to everyone, then few know about point 3.

PURE STORAGE ПОМОГАЕТ НАШЕЙ БОРЬБЕ С КОРОНАВИРУСОМ

Сегодня, что неудивительно, что вся наша вычислительная мощность направлена ​​прямо на COVID-19. Но если сделать шаг назад, то более широкое использования вычислительной мощности сотен тысяч добровольцев будет направлено на то, чтобы постоянно делать мир более безопасным и здоровым местом, готовым к решению серьезных проблем.  Как платформа для медицины и биологии, наша сфера для решения проблем бесконечно широка и обширно применима. Мы надеемся, что сообщество Folding@home продолжит налаживать тесное сотрудничество с большим количеством партнеров, таких как Pure Storage, что позволит нам решать больше основных мировых проблем - пандемий, как таковых, - при этом предоставляя людям уникальную возможность изменить ситуацию каждый день.

Folding @ home был подключен к Pure Storage через одного из сотрудников компании, который является частью сообщества Folding@home. Через свой фонд Pure Good Foundation  компания Pure пожертвовала систему Unified Fast File and Object (UFFO) FlashBlade, которая сразу же позволила нам увеличить емкость хранилища, не оплачивая ненужную вычислительную мощность.

«Значительно увеличив емкость хранилища и отделив ее от вычислений, мы можем сосредоточить наши вычислительные ресурсы на осмыслении огромных объемов данных, поступающих из Folding@home», - сказал Грег Боуман, директор Folding@home. «Важно отметить, что FlashBlade позволит нам работать с данными из Folding@home на месте. Как будто FlashBlade был специально создан для нашей миссии».

«Высокая производительность при обработке большого количества небольших файлов представляет собой истинное преимущество FlashBlade», - сказал Мэтт Берр, генеральный директор FlashBlade. «Для Folding@home проблема заключается в том, что с персональных компьютеров возвращаются бесчисленные крошечные файлы, которые необходимо собрать заново. Перераспределенные рабочие нагрузки отправляют небольшие биты данных обратно в основной вычислительный кластер, сеть или облако, что требует высокопроизводительного решения для повторной сборки и, в конечном итоге, обработки. Именно для этого и был разработан FlashBlade».

Чтобы узнать больше о нашем сотрудничестве, послушайте записанный веб-семинар с Pure Storage Leveraging the Power of Many to Solve COVID-19   , или прочитайте пресс-релиз Pure.

Узнайте больше о исследованиях, которыми занимается Folding@home, на сайте   https://foldingathome.org/

Мы ищем больше партнеров, таких как Pure, чтобы поддержать нашу работу, особенно путем предоставления средств для расширения нашей команды разработчиков. Если вы заинтересованы в ускорении научного прогресса, обращайтесь к Anton Thynell. (anton.thynell@gmail.com)

I can understand your concern, mate but you got my point wrong here. What I meant to say is, when such people have the dare to come here and share the scam link without any fear, either such thread / post should be deleted and / or he should be banned immediately. That's it. I'm not asking to find that person and get him behind the bars, but we can blacklist him no?
Alas, but you did not understand the forum policy

"19. Possible (or real) scams and Trust ratings are not moderated (to prevent moderation abuse)."
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0#post_rules

Not moderated means: it cannot be removed or is not subject to the ban Smiley
If one project promises 0.9% profit per day and another 1% profit per day, then which one is considered a scam?

Albeit, users were already warned so many times, still these scammers manage to get a few people fall into their trap. Sad

I, too, have resented many times for this reason.
Me was told: "that a fool will lose his money anyway"

Write warnings in big red letters,set flag and negative reviews.

Wow, a new scam popping up every single day but now they are trying to make Bitcointalk as their hub of duping people into their shitty schemes? This is getting ridiculous and I urge noobs not to invest a pie in OP's stupid get-rich-quick scheme.

@theymos, I know that you don't log down our IP addresses as that's because of the privacy policy of the forum, but don't you think that scammers who dare coming here and trying to scam, should be nuked at any cost?
Fraud on this forum is not moderated, so there is no need to disturb the forum administration. For this, a trust system and a flag system were created.
It has been discussed many times that the best way to counter fraud is to warn other users.
The IP address is easy to change, so you don't need to make scammers smarter. Let them write better from 1 IP address.

Much better to learn how to do trading, of course you can lose money in the beginning, but at least you can learn a thing or two. I was a victim of bitcoin doubler in the beginning of my career, so it's really a lessons that I learn and I said to myself that I won't fall for this kind of trick again.
Learning to trade is good, but according to statistics, 10-15% of traders are successful. Trading on altcoins is speculative, and on bitcoin too.
Look at the trading groups and channels in the telegram, they are created in order to take money for training new hamsters.
You can recruit 100 hamsters, get $ 100 for consultations from each and not engage in trading.
This is much more profitable, I can write a lot of thoughts about analysis, market review, but it will not help in trading.
6850  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: US charges two Russian crypto hackers on: October 05, 2020, 12:03:22 PM
not that easy though as it might involved a lot of politics between US and Russia, but eventually he was extradited and sentence to 7 years behind bars.

Ties with USA due to being an EU and NATO member are more important so the legal battle amounted to taking advantage of the rights he had as a detainee in Czechia. Prague is still infamous for being a hive of Russian spies but their golden years are over.
I have another theory. I think that everything will depend on which company gets hacked. If this is a small exchange, then formal measures will be taken, if it is a large corporation, for example, LinkedIn, then completely different methods will be involved.
If a hacker breaks into government services, then he will be found in another country, and the security services will not look at the laws of other countries.
6851  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is anyone here who made good roi with defi? on: October 05, 2020, 11:45:51 AM
I think there is a huge potential with DeFi projects nowadays. It’s like ICOs way back in 2017, but die down on the following year or so (only a handful of them are actually successful). I bet that this year is what I call as the “DeFi hype” year because they’re relying more on the quick price surge than it’s long-term use cases.

I see that some of my friends on Facebook are being crazy on their DeFi coin portfolio, showing how much the prices increased. I just don’t know if DeFi would be the same next year. Would they follow suit like ICOs that fall down the following year after the 2017 hype? Possible. But I could be wrong.
https://coinmarketcap.com/defi/
Look at the statistics of the prices of tokens and coins of DeFi projects.
These projects have lost their value very much over the last week.
This ecosystem will have a good future, but first it must cleanse itself of shit (farming services, etc.)

6852  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: Quickly double trx token on: October 05, 2020, 11:39:37 AM

I'll add a negative trust.
If the project promises more than 1% per day, then this is a likely Ponzi scheme.
This project promises a "DAILY  interest rate of over 40%". This is a scam.
DO NOT invest in such projects, you will lose your money.


Attention! Ponzi scheme!

I will write only 1 interesting thought about decentralized exchanges.
Trading in tokens that can be blocked by the owner of a smart contract is like trading using the world's payment systems Grin
If you make a decentralized exchange, then you need to add only 1 condition: all coins and tokens should not have locks from third parties.
6855  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is UniSwap the most powerful in the Defi market? on: October 04, 2020, 08:18:52 PM
Uniswap is a fundamental project of the DePhi ecosystem.
Such a project cannot be scammed and its tokens can grow in price several times.

There is a good article on project decentralization:

6856  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TRON price analysis!!! on: October 04, 2020, 08:11:32 PM
TRON  has many advantages:
Free transactions, if you have reached the daily limit, then the cost of the rest will be inexpensive.
Withdrawal fee from the exchange: 1 TRON
Convenient tronlink wallet that works with ledger immediately. On metamask, you first need to create a new wallet, and then connect a ledger to it (I don't like that)
Relatively stable coin price over the past year.

The coin has the potential to rise in price, so you should definitely keep TRON in your portfolio

If we talk about DeFi, then most of the projects that journalists attribute to the DeFi ecosystem are not decentralized.
The creators of these projects can block tokens at any address, create white and black lists.

The second problem is hamsters. They don’t study, they want to lose money.
They invest in a pool of liquidity and do not understand that if the price of one of the assets falls, they will lose money.
