I cannot find any review of this wallet as well, and yes it is fairly young and majority of us haven't heard of this one. Probably the developer of this wallet doesn't bother to promote it because it has malicious intent from behind. But good catch by the OP, and it's good that the community is being given a warning here. Just stay with reliable and trusted wallet and not try to 'experiment' with unknown and not open source.
7322  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can one use is Bitcoin talk forum account on: May 29, 2020, 11:55:23 PM
I have been participating in bounty campaign, but noticed I normally see one or two accounts every, was wondering why.
My question is that is there limitations as to the number of projects you use your Bitcoin talks forum account for.

You are not allowed to participate two accounts in a single bounty campaign because that is cheating. Having multiple accounts is not against the rule per se, but frown upon. And taking advantage of it by joining two or more accounts is not allowed. I will suggest that you go around the community first and read the rules and you are a classic example on why 'merit' system is implemented in the first place.
7323  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tyson vs Holyfield Charity Fight on: May 29, 2020, 11:20:37 PM
This is much better than the YouTubers' fight!
Well even if both are unfit for a serious match, at least we can see the peek-a-boo and the mighty headbutt one more time. That said, I hope both will fight clean if it's going to happen.
I'd pick Holyfield since he still trains and his body not as deteriorate as Tyson.

Exactly, those youtube fighters are making a lot of money. So it makes sense for a Legendary boxing like Tyson And Holyfield to fight to raise money for charity. I will also go with Holyfield, seems he is more fit that Tyson although he is the older of the two. Mike's drug issue could be one factor why his body has deteriorated very fast and thanks to @deisik for that image.

Let's give an example of you bought 100 BTC at 9000$ Price and the price went 9010$ in seconds then you sold, so your profit will be 1000$, may 500$ fees, but the another 500$ you made it profit in seconds!

Let's discuss at the point!

And then the price went to $3000 in 30 minutes, then you got nervous and then panic and you sold. My point is that bitcoin is very volatile asset, it's not that easy to make money, you can literally go from boom to bust. No one can even time the market to go on a "buy position" like the scenario you picture. Theoretically you are correct, but in practice it will not be always the case.

Kindly move this thread to Reputation board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=129.0.
I think it is a proper place to discuss it.

I moved before but my move post has been locked so I don't know how to work move because I only work on bounty so that's the reason.

Bottom left of this thread, you will see click move topic. Don't forget to tick "Post a redirection topic."

Then look for board. And then we will continue to discuss your case.
7326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you donate in a casino? on: May 29, 2020, 02:38:33 PM
No, I'm not going to be comfortable donating to a platform that is one of if not the best money making business machine in the world.

And like the rest of the guys here, I prefer directly giving out to the organisations specially local so that I can see where the money is going specially if it will go to my fellow countrymen.
7327  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Let me introduce some indicators that I know. on: May 28, 2020, 11:45:18 PM
Thanks for the introduction, but I think you need to provide more details on how traders can use these indicators to better understand the market flow. Perhaps a example pattern or graph will do so that it will be more coherent and clear specially for those who wanted to learn crypto trading.

^^ Ang nangyari kasi eh ang mga social media related sites eh parang ni spin ang sinabi ni Vitalik, kaya parang lumabas na may sinabi syang July. Kaya was masyado magpapaniwala sa mga sites na yan, check nyo kung may mga official twitter account. Siyempre ayaw naman talaga nating malamang na may delay na naman, kaya wala tayong magagawa kundi mag antay talaga kung kayang i meet ang so called July schedule.
7329  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [DISCUSSION] How to overcome a big loss in gambling? on: May 28, 2020, 10:36:03 PM
Luckily, only a few people here in our country could spend money like that on betting. That is almost 150,000 pesos and in a province that I am living in, that is a huge amount. As I  said, people here are not that addicted to gambling so people can really stop when they wanted to. Losses are inevitable but since some people are not really that addicted, they could lose an amount of money and just stop for a while.

During the height of my addiction kabayan, I've lost 30k-50k PHP in a land base casino in a night.  Sad

Back to the topic, as for the emotions thingy, whether we like it or not, gamble and emotions are connected. It can really spell the difference between you becoming an addicted gambler and losing all your money or just step back and think about your life and your future.

It is really hard to control it, believed me, but I've learn to acknowledge that I have this problem in the first place. Yes I feel frustrated and annoyed and irritated after a big loss. What I do is try to regain control of myself and realised that I'm not this kind of person and that I should be responsible and not let my bad gambling habits takes over me.

Thanks for that kabayan, you are right. To be honest I do see gamblers bet so much money on cockfighting but I never really see what happened to those bet. And I was addicted in the past but luckily, I don't have that money to bet with. I undergo some heart to heart talks with some people to help me with that addiction, some of them are professionals. I feel bad in the end but when I am addicted, I don't really feel anything except that gambling everyday is normal, I should do and continue doing so. My wife is the reason I stopped, she made me realize how bad that turned into and how strong she is, that is the push I needed to stop. To be honest, after years, I can tell that I am not the same but I still do some gambling every now and then but unlike in the past, I can control myself now.

Glad to hear that you did able to overcome your addiction. Yes, I was also addicted to 'sabong' as well, late 90's as I was closer to one of the biggest cock fighting arena (Sta. Ana and Pasay). And what I do is me and my office mates who are also into cock fighting will get out early just to go gamble.

I didn't seek help, but change my priority specially when I did get married. So the outlook in life has change and of course when I lost a high paying sideline of mine, that's when I have recognised that I should have save that money and not put everything in gambling.

I think someone already gave you advise on to what mixing services you should go or at least the list of mixing services.

All I can do know is report this malicious website to the domain's registrar so that it will be taken down already.

https://publicdomainregistry.com/process-for-handling-abuse/

Edit: To the OP, please report it here as well, https://cryptoscamdb.org/report.



So once it is listed, and you have EAL (EtherAddressLookup) installed on your machine, it will give a warning to everyone who are going to visit that site like this:

7331  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Goldman & Sachs: Bitcoin: Currency or Asset Class? on: May 28, 2020, 01:48:20 PM
It is obvious that when banks as big as Goldman and Sachs doesn't make profit out of bitcoin, they then will see it as nothing. This is how they work, they are going to try to reject it by all means. Perhaps they have a lot of customers asking about bitcoin and this irritates them, that's why they came up with this so called presentation to quash them. Well it's their lost if some of their customers move out specially those who wanted to invest on bitcoin. And you can sense some fear (as a bank), so this is good for crypto.

[..snip..]

How about this method though, How to verify SegWit signature with Brainwallet?. The only drawback is that it make things complicated for a newbie, because you need to convert your bitcoin address to HEX and then convert it to a BitCoin Hash160 (in Hex) to a valid BitCoin address.

Nice, recently I also found their modus, they will send two separates emails to phish their victims.

Good catch and everyone should be very careful because it seems that scammers are ramping their activities as of late.
7336  Economy / Speculation / Re: BitcoinPizzaDay 2025 on: May 27, 2020, 10:19:42 PM
Laszlo on an interview said that he's happy to have it and became part of the history of bitcoin. If it's not because of Laszlo, others won't see the use of bitcoin. Determine yourself, it's ok to use and spend your bitcoin because that's the purpose of it.

Yes, I think it was an interview in 2019, and you can sense that there is no regret from the guy. He wanted to use bitcoin and prove it.

You can have it and keep it if you don't want to spend it because it's your investment but, I think using that example from the historical bitcoin pizza is out of argument.

Because bitcoin grow along the way after Laszlo made the purchase. But we have history already, not only that even the store that sold the pizza is already part of the bitcoin pizza day and people go there to celebrate it.
7337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING ]: Fury vs Wilder III in Las Vegas on 18th July 2020 !!! on: May 26, 2020, 11:49:17 PM
Anyway, if a 4th fight will happen, then be it, these two are the most popular personalities in boxing sports, and if they keep fighting, they will also keep making money.

I doubt that these two will ever surpass popularity of Ali and Tyson. Or will earn enough as Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Yes, they are popular, but only now. When they retire from sport, people will forget about they in 3-5 years.

I really doubts that these two would ever inspire kids or even whole generation to sign to boxing section Smiley


Lol, Tyson Fury and Wilder do have it's own fan base and when they retire they are still popular among its people. Sports figures that you mentioned are popular in their own rights and i think that they won't be forgotten as their works were etched in the boxing history books, only fanatics like us will be forgotten in history  Smiley. Just like Manny Pacquaio, when he retire, he is still very popular here in the Philippines and new generation will remember him as he is one of the greatest the Philippines had produced.

Fury vs wilder 4 is possible and it depends on the outcome of their third fight.

Different era though, so it's really hard to compare Ali and Tyson during their prime in the heavyweight division. Same prior to Fury taking over that division, Lennox and Klitschko brothers.

But we will see, only time can tell, maybe 5-10 after those two will retire, we will see how fans are going to remember Fury/Wilder/Joshua's careers.

Damn, we really can't wait for this fight to happen!
7338  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin and COVID on: May 26, 2020, 11:19:35 PM
Usually, when people write that Bitcoin will be some kind of breakthrough that can help us in a pandemic, I immediately have a logical question, why not, plastic cards will help us in this? They can also easily pay for something without leaving home, what is better than Bitcoin in this situation?

Obviously, credit/debit card still the number one used as far as online and contactless payment. No where can bitcoin surpasses it at this crisis, we are still in the minority. But with a lot of uncertainties because of the pandemic, and with crypto slowly maturing, there could be a chance that bitcoin will slowly be adopted in this outbreak, it could be another alternative. Be it as store of value against physical gold as people are looking for other means. Of course, there is the scaling issue, as you can see there's a lot of threads lately complaining about how much expensive the fee is, but I believed this will normalise and we can again use bitcoin will less than $1 which could attract more people to use it online.
7339  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC & Altcoin Market Update: Bitcoin sets lower high, altcoins rallying on: May 26, 2020, 10:56:16 PM
Latest in weekly TA series on BTC can be found here:

https://www.cryptoadvocate.net/post/bitcoin-altcoin-market-update-24-05-20

Main takeaways are that while bullish, BTC has failed to set a higher high and is still in weekly downtrend. Meanwhile, Altcoins are making large gains vs. Btc.

I'm not seeing altcoins making large gains vs BTC though, with when its goes, it ALT goes down as well.
So there is still correlation obviously so I don't think that ALT can move big without BTC pulling them up.

Unless those altcoin are being used to be pump and dump, or they are hype around that altcoin, like new releases or listing on top tier exchanges. So I doubt the theory that they are going to make large gains vs BTC in this kind of setup that we have (sideways with some small break out).
