Hacking isn't much hard work for hacker. Not only account, they can hack database if they want. Depend on security. As far as I know security for forum is very strong.
You should care about your account like hide email, keep password strong. Account might be hacked for your mistake also. Several reason is behind of hacking, like phishing.
There is a helpful thread, it may help you ;   Bitcointalk account security

Payment problem for 2nd week not yet solved. They are finding another manager for manage their signature campaign. As far as I know all participant for 2nd week not yet got reward after skip previous manager. Yahoo asked them to release 2nd week payment and they are discussing about manager. I will mark it solve if they clear full payment. Thanks for suggest.

Strongly agree with you. I don't know why admin choose this way to build his forum. Paying for posting, how long you can pay ? When you will stop paying people will just skip from his forum. Last few days ago there was another forum called ICOLIST GURU, as far as I know it was paid. But recently look like become silent. How long can pay without revenue.  And it's not much easy to genarate revenue from such as forum. I don't think there is any other most popular forum like bitcointalk (IMO).  Although here peopel not getting paid directly from forum administration's but many way here to earn cryptocurrency. So it's more difficult encourage for diverting people to new forum.

Btw, that's admin wish how he will spend his money. But for signature campaign he should choose trusted managers and escrow.

How the Efforts of Bakkt Could Lead to the Approval of the First Bitcoin ETF

After read the full news about Bakkt ETF proposal, I think perhaps Bakkt could get ETF approval from SEC. There are  enough reason to expect Bitcoin ETF approval for Bakkt.

Those ETF proposal rejected by SEC, there are some main reason;



For above reason we can expect Bakkt can get first Bitcoin ETF approval from SEC. What is your thought?

I was opened a thread : Suspicious signature campaign !!! icoforums.net on 16^th August 2018. Unfortunately we can't see any respond from team. In a result finally skip previous manager with fund.    

Already yahoo62278 answered. I think he can manage smoothly, even every one will wish to join.

That's why I was opened this thread. Without trusted escrow joined a campaign is not safe. Amount wasn't not small. I am not sure manager skip or they show excuse to scam people. If they pay participant that's good. If don't want to pay that means it's well planed skip.

Btw , I am not sure yahoo going to manage their signature campaign. Can you give us reference ? Although yahoo going to manage but  I believe he will consider about payment for existing participant. It will be better is be if he agree to manage their campaign. As well as I know he will not manage without escrow ( also he is an trusted escrow ). If manage by Yahoo , I will wish to join too☺

Received payment for second week. Thanks Zapo. Re-apply for next week.

Good job. They stolen picture from others and just change the name. Scammers want to make us fool. That's why I always told, before investing research minimum. At least use Google search for picture & website. For example if someone search now Google about this project , this thread will visible for all. So that people can aware about their scam.

Agree, I don't know exactly why it is necessary to hide trust rating few specific board. Although everyone can see trust rating if click in profile but its better to show all board. If some click on my profile they able to see my trust rating that means its publicly visible. I would like to suggest enable trust rating for all boards. Perhaps it will help people to know the poster is how worthy.    

WTF....  Why you inviting others if you can earn yourself Just do yourself don't try to scam innocent people.

Please pay attention on Bold area, is it possible earn $10K a day and $100K in 30 days ? There is any legal way to earn $100K per month from Locabitcoin ? 

A newbie account offering up to $100K

Did you see what is your subject ? " can i newbie send merit?" . I am pretty confuse about your question. Are you want to receive from newbie or are you want to send newbie?  Both answer is yes, if you have smerit. If you don't know about merit & smerit than read this post. I just checked your full merit history, look like you got merit initially. So perhaps you can send 1 merit to another member and you already did it. If you want to send more merit you should earn first.

Your first merit you spend on wrong post. He didn't deserve merit for it.

You are right, most of people never read the topic. Perhaps just see the subject and start spamming. Nothing we can do except report. I am very less active on alt coin or on Bitcoin discussion. Although I visit some time than most of time I used report button. Anyway it's result of signeture, especially Jr. Members. Because most of reply from Jr. Members I have seen ever. That's why it's better option to include Jr. Member to merit system. There should be minimum merit to become Jr.member or disable signeture for them. I can't see other solution at this time.

Still looking Bitcoin stable on 6k to 6.5k zone even most of ETF rejected. From my side still you can hold. We can see on last year record of Bitcoin price that time wasn't ETF proposal. But Bitcoin price was touched almost 20K. I think this year will repeat the same trend. Just question of time, how long it will take. If ETF approve thoes are remain it will better for investors. Although rejected all ETF proposal I am not expecting Bitcoin price will go below 5K. Btw I will suggest if you can hold for long time than don't sale now. Just wait for end of year.

I think it will be better if start regulation for exchange. There is question of security. An exchange should be regulate same as a bank. Because million dollar investing from worldwide. Especially for new exchange, day by day increasing number of new exchange. Recently most of ICO coming with exchange concept to attract investors. That is harmful for people. Btw I would like to suggest for use well reputed exchange for trading in order to prevent scam.

Good job. At least you collected all the existing scam those are already scamed. People should know scammers  & manager's too, it will help to avoid scam project promotion. OP should work also identify also new scammer. I would like to request all member's, before join any campaign please research minimum. Save your time & hard work money. Let's work for scam prevention.
