Did the OP's name always look like this?



In his profile it appears as palle11.
It appears to be spreading (like some sort of contagion?) to other users they've had contact with. I thought we agreed such jokes would be in poor taste. Sad

@theymos, please tell me I'm mistaken.

Looks like you yourself has now been infected,  Grin

Ito yung latest ung gumawa ng coin na corona coin ng scam nadin.
https://www.publish0x.com/boyka/coronacoin-breaking-news-lead-developer-exit-scammed-xkqmjr?a=l9avrPVaG1&tid=scam


Reminder lang sa mga kapwa ko pinoy if ever nakakita kayo ng project na gaya nito , wag niyo na suportahan kasi in the end magiging scam din naman . Kawawa lang din lahat ng mgaiinvest pa sa knila.

Nabasa ko na yan at hindi na rin ako nagtataka kung mag exit scam na ang mga loko. Wala naman silang pakialam talaga basta nakalikom ng konti pera dahil na sarin sa Covid-19 tatakbo at tatakbo na ako.  At kung meron mang nalugi or what o nawalan ng pera, kasalanan na nila yan. Maging leksyon sa kanila, obvious na obvious naman na mga scammer ang nasa likod ng mga to ayaw parin makinig at magsipag tigil.

Most people thought that after the virus outbreak, money would go into Bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies as Bitcoin is considered to be the only ‘’safe-haven’’ asset at the time of crisis. But Bitcoin collapsed by 15% after the virus outbreak, thereby defying people’s expectations.

Say's who? We really don't know if people are going to pour their money into bitcoin. Only bitcoin is considered as safe-haven, as fair as I know. But it is not a hedge against this kind of global pandemic.

However, it is to be remembered that the value of Bitcoin is driven by demand and not on factors like interest rates and GDP than other fiat currencies depend on. Therefore, the prices of Bitcoin though showing volatility is most of the time, still remain steady when other markets fall.

You can't compare bitcoin and fiat, bitcoin as limited supply, while central banks can print as many as they want to cover everything.

7586  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: SEC vs Telegram Group Inc on: March 29, 2020, 11:33:54 AM
What can the SEC or US courts under these circumstances? Can they force US companies such as Amazon (AWS) and Google (GCP) to stop doing business with Telegram which pays for their services?

Based on this article: https://www.theblockcrypto.com/post/59978/telegram-token-investors-are-now-ready-to-take-refund-offer-report

Quote
Another potential option could be the removal of American investors from the project, according to Barinsky, but "this may be followed by lawsuits from other investors."

@Theb, again quoting on that article, the launch could be postponed because they needed to work on another set of paper works. So it's pretty much mess up everything on their end.

Quote
Barinsky told TASS that the team of Durov could now register a transaction, recognizing that gram is a security. "To conduct an IPO, but in this case, the launch of the project will be postponed for another period, companies usually prepare for this for at least a year," he said, adding that it was "practically impossible" to do this before April 30, 2020.
7587  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Will this trading technique work ? on: March 29, 2020, 10:49:19 AM
What exactly determines a buy point except that it's a drop? 5%? 3%? How far of a drop would you consider it a buy point?

Look like you're trying to catch a falling knife hoping the drop will start another move up. It might work as long as you're lucky but it's not a solid strategy imo.

Exactly, we really know what is the bottom price, we really don't know, it can rebound in the next couple of minutes or hours, that's why it is really hard to consider a buying point. We could also see dead cat bounce, wherein it will be just temporary rebound or recovery.
7588  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Pianaka unang bitcoin casino sa pinas! -Kawbet.com on: March 29, 2020, 09:13:00 AM
ano ng latest update sa Case ng Kawbet?nasagot naba nila lahat ng issue na ibinabato sa kanila?makikibalita lang dahil ang ganda pa naman ng Theme nila bilang 'Pinakaunang Bitcoin  Casino sa Pinas" kaya parang nakakapang hinayang kung ganon ganon nalang sila mawawala sa circulation .

pero masyadong seryoso ang mga Evidence parang mahihirapan na sila makalusot or maka recover sa reputation nila.

Their latest answer is " they have the same provider but different management".. and their account was last active on March 08, 2020, so parang iiwan na nila ang forum dahil hindi convince ang community sa sagot nila.

As of now, the site is still up, maybe they are looking for another platform to advertise.

The account has been banned permanently: https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?id=2723342



So hindi na talaga sila makakabalik para masagot ang mga akusasyon dito.

I'm sorry to tell you all that I did it for two for two reasons, to stay away from brust post and last time of forum is my accurate sleeping time. Although now I will stay away from it. I think new rules should add about it, I'm on it. Like daily editing time, reserve post accept in bounties, if any one do it regular, after post more time pass than will more getting serious etc. I'm trying to recover myself for everything after all rules should make for our good.

If you're priority is to have a healthy sleeping pattern then make time on this community before you sleep. I'm give you example of my sleeping habits, I try to make a post during my day, no later than 10 p.m. usually and then sleep, wake around 4-6 am here go around the forum will post if I find good threads to reply too. So in this case, I'm not in a "hurry" to make post just to be able to reach the required number of post with your campaign. What's you quota by the way? 10 posts a week? that's doable, you wouldn't spend an hour, 2 post per day will do.

Base sa latest score (no pun intended) US na ang pinakamarami, susunod ang Italy, tapos ang China wala nang na-ireport na new cases. So sa tingin ko mahaba haba pa ang aantayin natin para makapanood ng NBA. Nood nood na lang tayo ng mga replay.  Grin

@bisdak40 - parami talagang pasaway, ewan ko ba, likas na yata sa mga Pinoy yan. Tapos pag nahawa naman magagalit sa gobyerno dahil hindi daw sila naasikaso. Konting tiis tiis lang, malalagpasan din natin tong malaking pagsubok na to.

It is not a wise decision to sell them in the current situation of the market because now it is the right decision to grab as many coins as possible in the market. As long as, if we don't need money it is very good to hold them because long term holding will always help us to make some decent profit.


That is if you have extra money right now, but since the situation is getting worst by the day, there could be average joe who would rather cash out because they are afraid and panic is this kind of situation that we haven't seen in a long time. Of course, holding is what we really wanted, but when our backs is against the wall, we can't really blame people selling. Right now the price has go down again, but we are still above $6k as of the moment.

Bitcoin transactions are transparent to all users while providing some sort of privacy because it's no easy to know which address belongs to who unless they let you know or that person involved in KYC which was not aimed. Blockchain aimed  to go anonymous so people would have freedom financially
Privacy provides freedom, but Countries citizen fight against freedom of speech and forgot that speech will not give wealth financially, We Are and must fight against financial freedom in a modern way as Blockchain do until we all involve in Bitcoin and general cryptocurrencies.

As far as financial freedom goes, crypto's such as bitcoin has given us an alternative, so that we won't be tied to banks or other financial institutions out there which we have been using for centuries now and we all know that those systems are broken.

And now comes cryptos, just imagine using bitcoin to transact around the globe, borderless, and I think that is financial freedom for us.

In Covid-19 related news,

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-8151323/Anthony-Joshua-fit-healthy-meeting-Prince-Charles-contracted-coronavirus.html

Well we all know by now that the virus is asymptomatic (30%), but it's good that he feels great, but still he needs to self isolate and we do hope that he doesn't have the infection.
The situation becomes more harder because of that asymptomatic thing where people cant be easily detect out as early as possible because of this one which would worsen even more.
By the way,thanks for giving out the link about AJ is still fine in spite on meeting Prince Charles which ad been tested positive but still not an assurance as long the isolation
isnt over yet.

No worries mate, I really do hope that AJ will be negative with the Ncovid-19 virus. Although it is sad to hear that another high profile personalities have been infected.

As far as the kiss though, I totally forgot that it was Pulev, Lol, my attention is with the girl, Pulev defense though is that they are friends, (she is a Filipina, btw).  Smiley

7597  Other / Beginners & Help / {Warning}: Fake Bitcoin Transaction accelerator on: March 27, 2020, 12:19:47 PM
I saw one newbie in the Bitcoin Discussion board complaining about the fees. And it looks like the difficulty has dropped significantly, Yesterday, in three separate cases blocks were mined after more than 1 hour of delay.. So this got me thinking, that maybe scammers are going to exploit this one and put up a website to somewhat accelerate the transactions. We all know that during the height in 2017, many services has been offered here, but I high doubt that it is effective, unless you have direct connections to mining services. Anyways, here are some scam websites as far as bitcoin transaction accelerator is concern.



Code:
 Phishing site: http://bitcoin-transaction-accelerator.com/accelerator/



The sample transaction id I put is from the scammers themselves, just look at the bitcoin address,
Quote
Transactions 921
Total Received 17.63153023 BTC
Total Sent 17.62703662 BTC
Final Balance 0.00449361 BTC

Lots of people have been falling for this trick, asking for 0.001 BTC. I highly doubt that they really did help you out accelerating your transactions here. Same bitcoin address being used.

Second one, they step it up, using viabtc



Code:
http://viabtc-transaction-accelerator.com/accelerator/

Bitcoin Address:
Code:
3NYKHbX3zRbcZeASxjZmb4bpF8kZytnuvi

Another one:



Code:
http://bitcoin-tx-transaction-accelerator.com/

Just a gentle nudge to every one here, don't trust this kind of so called accelerator. You can used https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#0,24h to check you clogged the network and see what is the best fee, depending on your needs.

Merit.

Thank you Baofeng for compiling everything and the effort of course.
Iba na mga sungay ng mga ito. Baka mas mahaba pa sa pinakademonyo sa lahat at may buntot na rin.
Nakakatakot yung donations and e-mails. Since ang mga tao ngayon ay nasa bahay at nakakababad sa internet tapos ang mga bank account nila ay madali na ma-access thru internet baka mabiktima sila.

Ano pa ba ibang mabuting paraan para ma-spread natin ito for awareness?
Facebook? Twitter?

Exactly, kaya ingat ingat talaga tayo.

Tungkol naman sa awareness, siguro mas maganda ikalat talaga natin sa social media. Or dun sa mga kakilala natin, a simple text will do. Mga halang na talaga ang mga kaluluwa ng mga taong yan. Sa ibang banda, pilit itong nilalabanan ng mga ating ethical white hackers at iba pang cyber security experts, Cybersecurity experts come together to fight coronavirus-related hacking. At meron ding grupo ng hackers na pinili na hindi targetin ang mga health organizations, Ransomware Gangs to Stop Attacking Health Orgs During Pandemic. Pero kulang ba yan, kailangan natin talagang i-spread ang awareness.

Good catch, most likely those sites are are being run by scammers from behind. And it was reported that there is a surge of "corona" virus related websites. And I'm sure they just wanted to ride the hype of the pandemic, used its name and take advantage of the hysteria to victimised innocent people.
