81  Economy / Speculation / Re: Where will we stand at the end of pandemic? on: July 12, 2020, 08:49:49 PM
If you ask me the only reason the pandemic crisis/recession hasn't crushed down BTC price is the halvening. My theory is that since we have now less BTC inflation because of block rewards being 100% less made the price resist the crisis and now we are bouncing between 9k-10k. People complain that the halvening hasn't made price movement in 2 months which is quite unusual compared to past halvenings but they don't seem to grasp that this halvening is potentially just counter balancing the dump provoked by the pandemic (people need money during crisis, it's logic to sell some or all their BTC holdings when a lot lost their jobs etc..) So in theory at the end of pandemic we can see more demand and potentially a rise in price but if you ask me buying at 9k-10k is risky at the moment as 9k level is being tested regularly these past few days more than 10k.

If your paypal is linked to a bank account, ask your bank they might be able to reverse the transaction even if it's friends & family. Your bank is probably your last chance because Paypal won't reverse a f&f transaction if you dispute it. Also dispute the transaction on Paxful, read this article

I've seen a topic about this before. I'm pretty sure they're not fair for the high winning free rolls.

LoyceV find the link!
I think you are talking about this thread.



IMO, if the free rolls were provably fair, freebitco.in would have gone bankrupt long time ago with all the bots and multi accounts...

85  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Someone should start a class action lawsuit against Paypal on: July 06, 2020, 06:15:27 PM

I actually used to think of Paypal as an excellent service and wallet provider but they are so idiotic with their Dispute Management that I had to face a loss of around $200 for almost no reason.

Paypal sucks even as a wallet provider. Just look at the number of accounts they limit/freeze and people can't withdraw their money.. Also what kind of payment service does not allow buying/selling bitcoin? It's your money, means you should be able to buy anything with it that is not illegal!

The only credit I can give to Paypal is the fact that they close accounts of Ponzi and PTC websites and stop working with them, which at least discourage scammers somewhat.
86  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can you hide your identity with bitcoin? (100%) on: July 06, 2020, 12:04:07 PM


IMO.. satoshi is an anonymous group, not a real person.  if he is a real person we can track him because even if he uses VPN or Tor network when he exchanges his Bitcoin for fiat money on the exchange, his identity will be found out because on average the exchange tracks the identity of the owner of Bitcoin who has a large amount..

Don't forget that P2P exchanges exist... Also, even if satoshi is an anonymous group how does that change the fact that measures have to be taken anyways to not leak the informations of that presumed "group" ?

5.VPNs are OK,but use a paid one.

I may add that even if it's a paid one, VPNs have to be choosen carefully because some of them (paid) are known to have logged AND given user's information when asked by authorities.

 Adds up to dubious amount when its IEO is done on a known scam exchange as we knew it already.


So you consider LAtoken a scam exchange? Can you detail this statement a bit more? Because it was clear to me that LAtoken was pretty transparent and scored KingCasino IEO 2/5 because they probably couldn't verify that the team is not fake.

people should now be careful dealing with bounty detective it ended they are not good in detecting scam project, they are only good in promoting.

People should start searching and looking for themselves if a project is a scam or not and stop relying on a third party to do that for them. If hunters could smarten up a bit and stop falling and promoting scams, tragedy like this wouldn't happen.
89  Economy / Economics / Re: Privacy Coins and The Shadow Economy on: July 04, 2020, 05:42:57 AM
There are ways to track privacy coins (especially if you send odd amounts).

Sorry but you have no idea what you're talking about. You are confusing privacy coins with mixers. There is NO way you can trace a monero transaction for example; stealth addresses are used so people can't discover the funds you hold with your public address. Also monero has a built in mixer, the mixing takes place every time funds are sent, it's called ring signatures.

The only *possible* problem you can face with most privacy coins is that an entity can scan your traffic and know that you are using monero for example, but they can't know what you actions/transactions you have done in the network and if you use tor/vpn you are already immunized against this anyways..

91  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to be your own cryptobank, earn interest, and cash out anonymously on: June 29, 2020, 11:26:27 AM
What is the chance that you will not earn 1% but people will be thinking to earn 10%, and this is annually/yearly. This is not profitable for my likely at all, Dai is a stable coin and no means of it to even increase like bitcoin.

Instead, I will wait carefully for bitcoin price to decrease and invest on bitcoin instead of believing in such annual unprofitable for professionals that will seem profitable for novices.
People freeze their money in a traditional bank for 1%-3% yearly. I guess this mean of earning interest is for those who don't want to take any risks trading volatile coins like Bitcoin since DAI is a stable coin AND would have frozen their money in their bank for interests anyways. For people that fit this category being their "own" cryptobank is more convenient because the money can be withdrawn any time unlike a bank.
92  Economy / Economics / Re: Telegram to Return $1.2 Billion to Investors and Pay $18.5 Million Penalty to Se on: June 29, 2020, 11:12:27 AM
Imagine how much income it brought or how much increased companies value. For them, this penalty is nothing, and I'm sure Durov could find way to solve issue with investors.
Doubling the user base brought nothing to Telegram, financially speaking.

Telegram just fucked up their chance of becoming independent from donators by conducting an illegal private sale. We don't know how long it will survive with donations, they have to find quickly a solution to bring back the "lost" investors money by conducting this time, a legit non-sketchy sale.

In case I have not told you already, you're in as backup #1. There was another backup number one, but they were needed already. The BTC signup pay has been sent.

If you need me just send me a pm and for some reason you aren't able to send me one, just quote me here I'll receive a notification via Telegram.

The first one (funtrivia) was more technical than the second one (binance) I enjoyed it.

Thanks for the compiled list of quizzes, there is still way too much scammers in activity especially in telegram which only means 1 thing: newbies are still falling for it :/
98  Bitcoin / Press / [2020-06-23] Bitcoin name and logo patented in Spain on: June 23, 2020, 12:52:30 AM
Quote
Acting through a lawyer, an anonymous person has protected the word ‘bitcoin’ at the national level.

The Bitcoin name and logo has been trademarked in Spain with the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office. This process was completed by Ignacio Rubio Menéndez, a compliance expert and lawyer specializing in business law.


source:https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-name-and-logo-registered-with-spanish-patent-and-trademark-office

Do you think he can use this maliciously since now basically  "Bitcoin" is his brand trademark in Spain?? I'm thinking of scenarios of him suing for example restaurants that accept Bitcoins and display the logo in their physical location if he thinks that it's a wrong use of the brand, is that possible?
99  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 20-Year-Old Robinhood Customer Dies By Suicide After Seeing A $730,000 Negative on: June 23, 2020, 12:33:31 AM
its surprising that with a young age he already have/handle that kind of amount  .  he is too young to act imature and not accepting looses  but with that amount he have

Non-sense.. It's not a question of age here. Look at Nick D'aloisio, he became an entrepreneur when he was 15 years old.. his net worth is more than 30 million $.



Even if it were possible he was really down $730K (and I don't see how it was possible based on the amounts he was trading) that debt would probably not be collectable. He could have at least declared bankruptcy and got a clean start.

I don't understand how people jump to these sorts of conclusions. It's just tragic, no other word for it really.
It was probably fear and all the emotions coming out of the shock of seeing that huge amount of money in red that led him to take such an unrational decision.. I guess if there was someone with him at the time that reasoned him he wouldn't have done it.
100  Economy / Economics / Re: Which is better, staking or investing? on: June 23, 2020, 12:15:24 AM

Staking doesn't produce anything of value, it's just useless inflation. For every "free" coin you get by staking your portfolio is depreciating by a similar amount (or more, if some other bagholders have masternodes or some other contraption that produces more inflation).

This is wrong on so many levels imo. Is bitcoin mining also useless inflation with no value added? Does uour Bitcoin holding depreciate every 10 minutes when a block is mined? Obviously not. Staking/Masternodes are just a form of mining with a different consensus of course.



Back to the question, if you don't trade/ don't know how to and you are just holding cryptoasset, it's best to stake. Otherwise, trading will always be more profitable. My 2 sats.
