It's surprising that no reliable news outlets have reported on this incident yet, despite it happening yesterday. The amount lost is quite substantial, and one would expect it to be covered by popular TV stations like ABS-CBN, TV5, and GMA. However, there's been no news from these sources. I even tried searching on YouTube and couldn't find any reports from those channels. It's very likely that this is just FUD, a tactic to spread panic now that the market is in bullish mode.
First of all, $6M is not such a big amount, it's actually just a drop in the ocean when considering the entire crypto market. Second, Coins.ph is a local exchange, primarily popular in the Philippines and relatively unknown in the rest of the world. According to CoinMarketCap, it is ranked on 470th place with a daily volume of just over $650,000 (approximately 22 BTC). Moreover, if these allegations are merely FUD, why haven't they denied them yet? Also, what about the "Your funds are SAFU!" statements on Twitter?

Using AI-generated content is not much different from plagiarism and I believe it is against forum rules. If this AI-generated content abuse becomes bigger, the forum rules topic will be updated with new guide about AI-generated content.
I'm not supporting AI, but I still stand using AI isn't against forum rules except you can bring the proof where the moderator said using AI will get banned. It goes without saying that this practice clearly violates forum rules, particularly given our strict policy against plagiarism. Every AI-generated post I've reported has been removed by the moderators. They wouldn't take such action if it weren't a clear breach of the forum's rules and moderation policies.

A, baš ste mi zaspamali temu! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Jebena priča! Mogu samo zamisliti kroz što prolaziš. Ali, zar nisi mogao očekivati tako nešto? Misilim, s obzirom kakvim se poslom baviš. Dobro je javno podijeliti ovakve stvari i govoriti o takvim iskustvima jer može pomoći drugima da pronađu način kako se nositi s sličnim situacijama. Ne znam, doduše, koliko bi USDT pomogao ovdje. Jer, kao što Pmalek kaže, njih se može još i blokirati, a ne samo flagirati kao "nečiste". No, to vjerojatno znaju i scammeri pa ih možda niti ne koriste u njihovim ilegalnim radnjama.
Šta im znači to F: L:?
Pretpostavljam vrijeme prve/zadnje transakcije na adresi.

But wanting to do more give you that same morale to always come back here and make things right.
Stop wishing and start doing! Actions speak louder than words. There's not really a set rule for what makes someone a prominent forum member. Lots of folks get popular from being around a long time, helping newbies, offering cool services, that kinda thing. Each case is different. You're being real vague here instead of just asking what you wanna know! Pick one member you think is a big shot and ask about them straight up and or even better go read through their old posts - its all out there. You can see which posts folks gave them merits for, and the trust feedback other members left on their profile. Stuff like that.

Plus, someone said the spammers are all part of gambling signature campaigns. but you responded to the comment that the campaign managers know it's a problem here and they wont put up with the spammers in their campaigns.
No, not all of them are not spammers, they just looked like spammers because they tend to post on mega threads due to limited threads being created. Solutions is suggested above. No, I didn't say that all campaign participants are spammers, but it's true that the majority of spammers are indeed campaign participants. If you remove the incentive, I doubt there would be as much spam on the forum. There would be no reason for it. The solution to cut down on spam is pretty simple. Just report any messages that look like spam to the mods. And if there's someone who keeps doing it over and over, tell their campaign manager so they can watch what that person's posting more carefully. That's all there is to it.

Both links you added above are of purely gambling websites, this forum is not a gambling website but a Bitcoin discussion forum with a gambling board.
Yes, I'm aware of that. But consider the facts I'm bringing up: the majority of the posts coming from signature campaigns are related to gambling boards. What makes this forum particularly active is the signature campaign. Therefore, I find it to be a major concern that needs to be addressed. The title implies like you wanna stop all the spam on the Gambling board. But I don't really get how making more topics is gonna fix that. Plus, someone said the spammers are all part of gambling signature campaigns. but you responded to the comment that the campaign managers know it's a problem here and they wont put up with the spammers in their campaigns. So if it ain't the signature campaign people doing it, where's all this spam coming from then? I'm just tryin to understand what's going on and what your goal is here.

Is there any obvious reasons this would not work?
From what I understand, there was an anti-spam minimum of 546 satoshis per output. This was the normal policy for nodes to avoid people clogging up the system with dust transactions. So even though you could technically make a payment of just 1 satoshi, most nodes would reject it because of the anti-spam policy.

<cut> My question is what is a cluster and how can we see it and where?
Based on the question the newbie asked, I assume it's about identifying BTC addresses that belong to the same wallet or service. They probably noticed that the address you use or have made public is connected to a cluster of other addresses, possibly through sharing inputs. For some reason, he is interested in identifying the service connected to that cluster of addresses. Since you have already replied to him that this is the address generated for you by the Stake system, he can now identify other addresses that belong to the same service. There's actually a bunch of websites and services that'll let you see what BTC addresses belong to the same wallet. Walletexplorer.com is one I tried that's free to use. You just put in an address and it shows you other addresses linked to it, along with all the transactions going in and out.

I've been waiting for Binance to get the EUR SEPA deposit option working again here in the EU. It's been pretty annoying that it's still not available even though Binance said they started migrating users to new services. Im really looking forward to finally have that EUR deposit choice again since it'll make doing transactions a lot simpler. hopefully soon...

Oh c'mon, Joeyp! Is this the pinnacle of your creativity? you're really setting the bar low here, aren't you? We've seen your wild and wacky theories before – at least they were entertaining. This, my friend, is neither interesting nor amusing. Step it up!

The text written by alamin99 is barely a shit. His response has a context and I'm sure he used AI to rewrite his text in better form, better English possibly. I don't see anything wrong with that.
You might have missed that specific post, as the moderators have already removed it. I quoted it here. I didn't say anything about using AI to correct grammar in your posts, but content generated by ChatGPT is not welcome on the forum. The mods seem to agree on that.

If using technology is so bad why use silicon-based mobile / computer to write your shit here? Why even use internet at all? Why not just go to jungle and live with your carbon-based ancestors? A clever diversion, but let's not stray from the main issue. I get it, using ChatGPT to "write that shit" for you seems easy, but it's a reflection of your incompetence, nothing more. Let's not drag your ancestors into this; it's not their doing.

We can't know for sure if it was planned but I am inclined to think not, as it is not uncommon for fake news to slip through, sometimes in a whole range of media, propagated by a news agency. In this case it's a botched Cointelegraph, which as said is not characterized by an extreme quality of content, so the hypothesis that seems more likely to me is that they simply slipped in the fake news.
The bad thing is that there were many short-term traders who lost money with it.
Yeah, it's true that fake news can slip through the cracks sometimes, even on reputable sites. I kinda think a lot of times it's not some evil plan but more they just dropped the ball on checking facts. But in this case I'd say Cointelegraph should take the heat. They've been around forever and are one of the OGs in the industry so they gotta know spreading fake stuff like this can hurt. Whether they meant it or not, it happened and that's got consequences and people can lose money if they trade based on bad info. Cointelegraph should've been way more careful here, regardless of why it happened.

Thank you for your thoughtful and logical response. It's crucial to remember the importance of context and understanding the broader picture before jumping to conclusions. Your perspective helps shed light on the situation and promotes a more empathetic approach. Appreciate your input!
Thank you for that response, but silicon-based life forms aren't exactly welcome on this forum. So, "as a language model", kindly fuck off... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F10%2F19%2FRDb2m.jpeg&t=663&c=a3ufqA5H0uuvNg) (sapling.ai) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F10%2F19%2FRDpPW.jpeg&t=663&c=Q426b5qjvamYKQ) (zerogpt.com) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F10%2F19%2FRDDrJ.jpeg&t=663&c=DpL3XsARN54gGA) (copyleaks.com)

Duelbits kampanja opet ima slobodno mjesto za jednog Full Member-a. 20 postova tjedno (10 u Gambling sekciji). Local postovi se broje u tjednu kvotu. Payouts & Positions:Full Members - $40 in BTC/Week.
We have 1x Full Member position open, apply now!
Neverovatno je da vec ima 6 stranica prijava za Bitvest kampanju, takav reach ni Chipmixer nije imao. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Haha! Da, mnogi su već bili u "niskom startu" čim se Lightlord ponovno pojavio na forumu! Za uobicajenog bounty spamera ovo je mnogo bolje od bounty kampanja gde nakon meseci prenemaganja dobijaju neko smece od tokena.
Istina, samo što 90% njih nikada neće ni doći do Tier A plaće, pa će opet "raditi" za nekoliko dolara mjesečno u prosjeku.

Odlicna vijest za sve spammere i shitpostere koji nisu nigdje drugdje uspjeli upasti, ponovno je pokrenuta Bitvest kampanja!
O Bože! Here we go again! Pazi sad koliko će se računa odjednom probuditi iz dubokog sna. Bit će posla za spam buster-e! Pogotovo kada uzmemo u obzir tko je menadžer kampanje. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Theymos može slobodno zaposliti barem još nekoliko moderatora. Ako sam dobro izračunao, maks isplata za Hero/Legendary u "Tier A" je 0.00132 BTC tjedno (2200 sats x 60), plus još 3000 sats bonusa, dakle ukupno 0.00135 BTC tjedno.

It's well beyond me how a "bitcoin mixer's" developers could be so incompetent.
Don't mix up your own incompetence with someone else's. You don't use mixers to "clean" your coins, but to obfuscate your inputs and break the transaction trail on the blockchain. Obviously, by doing that, you end up with "someone else's" coins that might be linked to some shady activities. So I guess thanks YoMix for putting me on an FBI watchlist. Be warned anyone. If it's so easy for an exchange to detect a bitcoin "mixer" it sure as hell means that it's not an actual mixer.
That's nonsense! Jumping to conclusions about being on an FBI watchlist due to using a mixer is a bit of a stretch.

You were certainly MIA for a bit. Welcome back, @lightlord! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Bitvest was one of the OG Bitcoin casinos I came across. Time to make it great again! Good luck!
