If you are looking to make a large number of bets on DaDice, then you might as well give your money away as they are almost certainly not going to treat your bets fairly Wink

I suggest to the people who are submitting physical coin implementation into their graphics to actually use Silver Wallet Coins!  Don't be lazy... Do some Research!  Wink
Haha. From the looks of it, most people are submitting pictures of casasius coins and then somehow editing them to somehow say "silverwallets". My entry (#3) has an actual picture of a silver wallet Wink one that I actually personally own

Why do you keep editing your due date to be further in the future as you do not get your loan each day? From the looks of it, you are trying to prevent yourself from being called out as keeping the loan offer open longer then you would have needed the loan in the first place.

I also find it hard to believe that after two days you have not had the chance to make it to the "ATM"

I am sorry to say this, however I don't think you are getting your loan.
because i did not get loan yet.
the period is 7 days in fact.
i live in hong kong, it has been rainy for 3 days in a row.
i have neg feedback when i was a newbie. i was down voted by those newbies.
i have one of the successful loan as well.
How do you plan on acquiring the bitcoin you will use to repay your loan? Why is it that you would have sufficient funds to repay the loan on the 26th as of two days ago, but now you wont have the money to repay your loan until the 28th today?

This is what I got when I tried to initiate their services from my computer:

-----END DIGITAL SIGNATURE-----
I was able to verify the signature, the date matches when I initiated their services and the details match what I had input into their site.

You were almost certainly on some kind of phishing, or otherwise fake site.

If you wish to contact them regarding this matter, upon visiting their site, I found a link titled "contacts" that would probably be a good place to start, the link is: https://bitmixer.io/contacts.html that page also lists the following email address: support@bitmixer.zendesk.com

They also have an account on the forum, BITMIXER.IO, and you can send a PM to that account, although they are not very active on that account, likely for anonymity reasons.  

edit: I also see that the address you were instructed to send to has a transaction from that address with change back to that address (eg they reused an address), it is my understanding that bitmixer.io does not reuse addresses.
86  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Bitcoin client with this feature on: July 21, 2015, 10:23:48 PM
Both Electrum and Armory has this feature enabled by default, although you can turn this off (if you do wish to turn it off for one transaction then you will need to reenable it prior to sending another transaction), and AFAIK bitcoin core does not allow you to disable this.

You should note however, that if anyone who you trade with (either send to or receive from) were to ever start reusing their addresses (even once, although to have a major effect, it would need to happen more often), then the privacy you get by using change addresses properly is diminished, so I would not rely on this alone to be an effective way to maintain your privacy when there is a lot at stake to avoiding others knowing what you are up to
87  Other / Meta / Re: Accuracy of Forum Signatures? (CTR %) on: July 21, 2015, 02:23:37 AM
To measure how many clicks each user gets on a certain time period is easy. All you would need to do is use a link shortener for each participant in the signature campaign. Then you can monitor how many clicks each user gets on their signature, and a good way to measure efficiency of a particular user would be to compare this to how many posts they are paid for.

To measure how many impressions a particular signature has is going to be significantly more difficult, if not impossible. If you were to assume that each time a thread is viewed that everyone views every single post, then you could measure how many views a thread has as of immediately prior to when someone makes a post and subtract that number from how many views a thread has at the end of the month. Not only would this be very difficult to track, but also people will often only view the first page, the last page, or the last few pages of a thread.

89  Economy / Lending / Re: Offering Loans [No Collateral] on: July 20, 2015, 04:01:59 AM
Could someone please give me an example of what I could offer up as collateral for a 0.75btc 3month 15% loan? Genuine fully employed bloke here just looking to make some investments. I've had so many issues with Igot not processing my btc withdrawal requests I am at risk of missing out on a good opportunity.
Thanks in advance
Take a look at this thread. Basically it should be something that cannot be reversed (for obvious reasons), and that the lender can easily sell for at least the amount of the loan very quickly. A common collateral that is used is various altcoins, and this is a good collateral because borrowers can quickly and easily transfer it to the lender (or a trusted third party escrow). Other things that can sometimes be accepted as collateral would be things like physical bitcoins (like casascius coins), gold/silver bars, although most lenders would require that borrowers cover all shipping costs. Any physical item would need to be in physical possession of either the lender or borrower prior to the loan being funded.
90  Economy / Lending / Re: Offering Loans [No Collateral] on: July 19, 2015, 10:45:42 PM
Hi there,

I am new to the website, It is hard for me to get a loan. I am not new to BTC at all. I have some but the website that I use to buy my BTC is down. So I am looking for a loan. I know the risk I have asking for a huge some of BTC. So I want to tell you that this is up to you if you want to make this deal, but anything will help.

Here is my deal that I want to make.

BTC Loan of BTC30.
Loan time of 1 Month
You will get back 3.1%  That will be BTC 43.2738204
Or I can do 4.2% That will be BTC 288.3007669
My Wallet Address is 19mMji3s8DW5Evm4SZpsZqQ4iojZPtDuK4

I will need the loan asap. If you are able to me. Let me know.
How do you think anyone is ever going to fall for your scam if you can't even get your calculation right?

If you are offering 3.1% interest then the lender will get 30.93BTC back, and if you offer 4.2% interest, the lender will get back 31.26BTC back.

However in either scenario, the lender will end up getting nothing back because you obviously have zero intention of repaying any loan that you get.
91  Other / Meta / Re: Is there any way to report a member to mod/admin of this forum? on: July 19, 2015, 05:58:00 PM
Click Report to Moderator.
Actually i'm asking about to report a MEMBER not his POSTS. Because, he has created/posted too many threads.
You can open a thread in meta (just as you have done in this situation), or you can send a PM describing the issue to a moderator who you believe is online/active at that time.

It will also not hurt to report their posts with a note that the person in question has a lot of similarly spammy posts and it will be looked into by the moderation.
92  Economy / Lending / Re: .01 Loan Needed on: July 18, 2015, 11:53:32 PM
What interest can you pay? Can you provide a signed message proving your account is not hacked, ect?

Ill pay .003 interest so a .013 return in a few days. Cant provide a signed message because there is no address of mine available here
Without any kind of signed message from an old address you have previously posted then I wouldn't be able to help you, sorry. I would be surprised if others would help you as well because of the high number of hacked accounts on here as of recently.

Great news! Colorado remains a Bitcoin friendly state.
The charges were federal, making state law, and the political environment in CO regarding bitcoin irrelevant.

Also, local law enforcement agencies (multiple according to reports) participated in the raiding of BurtW's home in order to share in the civil forfeiture proceeds...
95  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Research survey on: July 18, 2015, 11:09:20 PM
Id like to get some more input on:

"Finding out the IP address via the Bitcoin address"

Some of the vulnerabilites sounds like you pulled them out of your behind (pardon my french).
Yeah, I've heard about this several times from newbies. However, I do not think that it is possible and thus have only answered as not concerned. AFAIK the only IP address that is visible is the one from the node that relayed the transaction, correct?
There is also this 'claim', but it doesn't relate to normal users even if it was true.

---
But Gavin Andreson indeed notes that

    "Unless you are very careful in the way you use Bitcoin (and you have the technical know-how to use it with other anonymizing technologies like Tor or i2p), you should assume that a persistent, motivated attacker will be able to associate your IP address with your bitcoin transactions."
---

i guess we should target that problem with a sidechain in the future  Tongue

Yes, its possible with transactions and a lot of motivation/resources, but we are talking about "Bitcoin addresses" here. If I call someone over the phone and tell them my bitcoin address, how are they going to get my IP? I might not even have an IP associated with that address at that moment in time as the private key for that address was generated offline and was never communicated outside said phone call.

There are plenty of ways to get a rough estimate of an IP address associated with a particular bitcoin address.

  • If you use electrum, then the electrum server that you connect to will both know your IP address and a complete list of addresses in your wallet.
  • If you use a block explorer on the clearnet, then that block explorer will know what addresses you looked up and your IP address. They can further narrow down who owns a particular address by looking at who is looking at a particular address around the time transactions are sent to/from a particular address. They can also get an idea as to which IP address is associated with a bitcoin address by looking at who looks at multiple addresses that are either spend-linked together or are connected via cluster analysis, especially when someone looks at multiple addresses prior to the spend link or the cluster occurs.
  • If you were ever to spend inputs from a particular address, then someone could look at who broadcast such transaction (this was mentioned previously)
  • If blockchain analysis were to reveal that a particular service or exchange sent an address bitcoin, then an attacker could ask that service for the IP address of the person they sent the payment to
  • Probably others that I cannot think of off the top of my head

Overall, I don't think this risk is very large because it will generally take a lot of resources to determine the IP address associated with a particular address, and the amount of resources required to "hide" the IP address is generally going to be low (use TOR).

edit: I also took the survey
96  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitfinex took my bitcoins on: July 18, 2015, 10:16:17 PM
Let me see if I am understanding you correctly, you were advised to not send bitcoin to an old deposit address, you received such advisement, however you sent bitcoin to that address anyway? I don't think the fact that you have a "corporate" account makes a difference here. Even if you were not warned, you should not have been sending bitcoin to the same address multiple times.

I think it is pretty clear that bitfinex is not liable in this case and that your trader is entirely at fault.

likely stolen credit cards. Then his customers will start to report tickets canceled at the gate and being asked to leave hotel rooms after one night.

Unfortunatly for your theory, taxes for reward tickets are realy small in USA and Europe and main payment falls for miles.
Also by number of ticket e.g. 125-* you can see that this ticket was issued by BAEC (when flight is not code-shared with AA, for example)
Moreover I can send with ticket screenshot of account with redemption for a ticket.
That explanation did not at all explain how you can sell airline tickets at such a discount.
99  Economy / Digital goods / Re: British Airways, American Airlines, Air Berlin tickets and others by BTC on: July 15, 2015, 06:36:24 PM
Do you also have some magic beans or perhaps some Unicorns?
This has actually been done before once or twice. Someone starts offering discounted hotel rooms and plane tickets for Bitcoin, offers escrow, will make the first few buyers actually get valid tickets then after confidence is built up will start to use what is likely stolen credit cards. Then his customers will start to report tickets canceled at the gate and being asked to leave hotel rooms after one night.
100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are we stress testing again? on: July 12, 2015, 03:41:37 PM
I don't know if this has been discussed, but here it goes: what is the best way to spend the outputs that spammers are leaving on well known private keys? We could try and drain their funds, a bit like f2pool did.
I tried that already with 2 of the addresses that have been spamming. It would cost 2.4 BTC fee and the transaction would be so large it wouldn't even fit in a block.
You would obviously need to split the transaction up into a number of other transactions. Right now there is roughly 1.41 BTC unspent in the addresses whose private keys have been disclosed, you would want to have 200 or so inputs per transaction making a roughly 30kb transaction and paying below market fees. The fact that there is such a large backlog in the mempool means that it would be unlikely that these kinds of transactions will get confirmed anytime soon. It also means that it will probably be more profitable for the miners to confirm other transactions (with higher tx fees) then to mop up the unspent outputs from the spam
