I hate usernames and passwords. I'll keep the idea on the front burner.

I'm totally cool with email OTP login or using an authorization URL; I'm not a fan of usernames and passwords either. But have you thought about including more social login options? I mean, Google and Facebook are pretty hot choices these days, and there might be a few others worth looking into as well.
882  Economy / Gambling / Re: ⚠️ Crypto.Games ⚠️ Account Closure and ~8.38 ETH Confiscated on: September 06, 2023, 01:08:02 PM
There is another thing that has been bugging me with the way some casinos request for KYC. If I don't agree to the KYC terms, is it in order for the casino to hold my funds as ransom until I provide the said documents?
What about sending the funds back to me and they just close/lock the account and I never get to use their platform again?

Some exchanges do this all the time. If you don't agree to their KYC terms, the only active option you have in your account is the withdrawal button. I think casinos should adopt this too instead of this endless rope pulling.

This is a valid argument and definitely something we should discuss more. We have seen numerous cases of casino operators changing their terms of service 'on the fly,' transitioning from No-KYC to Full KYC, disregarding the fact that these were not the terms under which users initially entered into a relationship with them. At the very least, casino operators should allow users to withdraw funds from their accounts before imposing the full KYC verification requirement. This would provide users with a fair opportunity to access their existing balances without being subjected to sudden and unexpected demands for personal information. Users who initially joined the platform under different conditions should not be trapped in a situation where they cannot access their funds.

The thing is, some platforms are all about making a quick buck and raking in short-term profits. They don't seem to realize that their shady actions could seriously mess up their rep in the long haul within the community. I've been thinking, maybe it's about time we put together a list of those platforms that, well, they're not exactly scams, but they're not too far off either. You know, the ones that don't play fair and don't care about ethics, but only care about their own pockets.

The problem I'm facing at freebitcoin is that the email containing WoF from email subscriptions hasn't loaded properly in the past few days, so the banner can't be clicked and that's been happening for almost a week, only one or two where I can claim the prize in the rest of Wof. becomes expired because Wof from email subscriptions is only available for 48 hours or 2 days.

Are you sure that the issue isn't on your side? Perhaps something else is blocking the loading of the email newsletter or clicking on the banner? I just opened a few emails from my end and didn't encounter any problems. All WoF links are working, except the expired ones, of course. Maybe you should try opening the email with a different email client?
884  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: HALVING IS GOING TO CAUSE A GENERAL EFFECT ON ALL IN THE ECOSYSTEM. on: September 06, 2023, 08:38:07 AM
How will the BTC mining difficulty level affect validators (btc miners) due to 1/2 reduction in reward after the next halving and possible backlash on general ecosystem?

Halving in mining rewards is predictable and all miners are aware of it. What is not predictable and what significantly affects the profitability of mining is the increase in the difficulty and price of BTC. Investing in mining equipment always involves a bit of gambling.

By the way, mining difficulty has nothing to do with halving. At least not directly. However, halving can have a secondary effect of reducing difficulty, as albert0bsd described.

We will have a chat tomorrow morning.

I don't want to sound insensitive, but I think this is a legitimate question. Have you considered the possibility of his health deteriorating or, even worse? Aside from the risk of investing in such a gambling venture, I believe you also need to think about what will happen to your investment if the worst-case scenario unfolds.

Well, I genuinely hope your friend makes a recovery and manages to find some enjoyment in the rest of his life.  Sadly, based on my own experiences, it can be quite challenging to bounce back from such an illness, and often, the condition tends to deteriorate over time in most cases.

Once again, welcome to our community! We're all ears to learn more about what makes Coins.game stand out from the rest of the online casino world. Got any awesome features or promos you want to spill the beans on?

888  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Stake.com Hot wallet robbed for 40Million + usd (Confirmed by stake) on: September 05, 2023, 03:13:53 PM
And for all the coins stolen on BSC, could Binance not just reverse those transactions since BSC is 100% centralized?

CZ's best bet is to freeze those output addresses and have Stake negotiate with those hackers (Ramson, as usual), since I don't believe it's feasible to reverse already confirmed transactions (which I haven't seen before).

There is no need to reverse already confirmed transactions, as Binance can simply freeze the funds and use the BNB Auto-Burn feature to cover the hacked funds back to the Stake. I believe they have already taken similar actions following some major hacks/exploits on the BSC network.

Keeping such a large sum in a hot wallet is a rookie error for an old casino (Stake). It appears to be an insider hack.

I agree. I don't know the exact daily withdrawal numbers, but seriously, did they really need that much in one hot wallet? And it wasn't even a multisig, apparently. I mean, every large transaction from the platform goes through a manual verification process anyway.

We have reached out to you, even after the rules violation, and returned the amount of your last deposit. Any funds exceeding that sum were voided. Also, we strongly recommend familiarizing yourself with the rules regularly to avoid any misunderstandings or situations like this.

In the spirit of transparency that you claim to uphold within the community, I suggest you shed some more light on this case. Changing your terms of use after a player has deposited funds and gambled is a concerning practice and the circumstances surrounding this case demand a clear and thorough response. Please provide clarification on this matter.

To start, could you please provide a detailed timeline of events related to this particular case? This would help us better understand the sequence of actions and decisions made.

Furthermore, when exactly did you include the provision restricting Russian residents in your Terms of Service? And why does this provision appear only in the English version of the Terms of Use, rather than being consistent across all languages? Could you clarify this discrepancy?

Moreover, did you make an effort to inform all your players about these revised conditions when they were implemented? If so, how did you communicate these alterations to your user base?

One particularly concerning aspect is whether you continued to accept bets from players, including Russian residents, after introducing the new terms. If so, why did you not enforce the updated conditions consistently for all players?

Lastly, why was the decision made to cancel only the winning bets for the player, rather than all of them, and return their entire deposit? This raises questions about the fairness and consistency of your actions. Could you explain the reasoning behind this selective action?

Ne kažem ovime uopće da taj thread zaslužuje merite, totalno je blesavo da daješ merite liku koji se javlja bit merit source. Samo opetovano naglašavam koliko je to s meritima zapravo iskrivljeno.

Baš naprotiv, ja mislim da uopće nije blesavo davati merite liku koji se javlja biti merit source, ako smatraš njegovu prijavu opravdanom. Evo, ispravljen propust s moje strane.
891  Economy / Exchanges / Re: eXch - instant exchange BTC / XMR / LTC / ETH / ERC20 on: September 04, 2023, 03:52:58 PM
We have registered another account back in 2014 named "eXch" which has no posts and was locked due to inactivity, however we still have its password:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=317539

Code:
Your account is locked because it sat inactive for years after the password hashes were leaked in 2015, and was therefore at high risk of being hacked. Email reactivate_2019_bgbs5[at]bitcointalk.org to get it unlocked.

Maybe the forum administration will consider deleting that account to rename this one.

Why not consider unlocking that account instead of requesting its deletion? Given the account's age, there might be some value in doing so.
I'm not sure about the exact requirements and what needs to be done, but have you tried sending an email to the provided address?

893  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to check for historical prices for coin years ago at exact time? on: September 03, 2023, 10:06:13 AM
Is there a way to do this for altcoins?  And how?  I know coinmarketcap you can check the history and what the high, low and closing price is for each coin for many years ago but what if you want to know the price of that coin at say 8am West Coast USA time?  Or say 5pm West Coast USA time?  Is there a way to do that or not before it is too long ago?  Now if it is recent, obviously you can check this.

CoinMarketCap is not an exchange, right? So, where does the price come from?

You will get the most precise data from the source itself. Find the exchange with the highest volume for each particular coin and check the price there for any specific date and time. Many large exchanges also offer an API that allows you to automate the process with a little bit of scripting. Here's an example:
How do I get all the prices history with binance API for a crypto using Python?

Can someone who has an account post a screenshot of how it looks?  Example you want to know the price of dash on January 3, 2022 at say 8am and 5pm USA West coast time.

Here is an excerpt from an example of the DASH-USDT trading pair on January 1, 2022. You can view the entire CSV on pastebin.

https://pastebin.com/XksE5JN0

Also it only gives hour by hour right?  You can't know the exact price at say 8:27am USA West Coast time?  

No. It gives you a price per minute. The timestamp is in UNIX format.
894  Other / Meta / Re: Trust flags on: September 01, 2023, 03:57:32 PM
In this case I suppose that we should have a consensus that if conditions which led to a problem which was a reason for a supported flag were not solved, then the flag should not be revoked not depending on the efforts made for the exact victim.
How about (red part is new):

Or, how about leaving the text as is and just replacing "AND" with "AND/OR" ?

Quote
decodx alleges: whirlwindmoney violated a written contract, resulting in damages, in the specific act referenced here. whirlwindmoney did not make the victims of this act roughly whole, AND/OR it is not the case that all of the victims forgave the act. It is not grossly inaccurate to say that the act occurred around August 2023. No previously-created flag covers this same act, unless the flag was created with inaccurate data preventing its acceptance.

Members still have the discretion to decide whether or not to support the Flag, and in cases like this one, we wouldn't have to argue over semantics.

Na našoj platformi obavezan je KYC, u poslovnicama nije do 1000 eur.

Šteta što niste uspjeli riješiti konverziju bez KYC verifikacije i na online platformi, makar za neznatne iznose.

Garantirano imamo najbolji tečaj u HR za online-offline kupnju/prodaju.
Također na ovom linku imaš kalkulator pa mozes provjeriti - https://www.bitcoin-store.hr/kriptovalute/bitcoin-btc/

To je dobro, ali ipak bi bilo bolje da korisnici mogu sami procijeniti gdje im je tečaj najpovoljniji. Kalkulator prikazuje samo kupovni tečaj, gdje je prodajni? Vaša stara stranica je to, čini mi se, bolje pokazala.
898  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [WARNING] Whirlwind.money - withdrawals are not being processed ⚠️ on: August 31, 2023, 08:26:18 AM
It looks like both sides have good points. Decodx says that whirlwind didn't hold up their end of the deal, while LoyceV argues that he was mostly compensated (money-wise). So, whether to support the Type-3 Flag or not really comes down to how each of us sees the situation and our own viewpoints on the matter. It's a decision that's influenced by our individual assessments and perspectives. And, there shouldn't be any "tagging" involved, from any side, as that would go against the intended use of the trust system.

Btw, I still got around $12 left on my whirlwind note but didn’t want to waste anyone’s time for such low amount, so the victims weren’t all made whole. Tongue
Lol. I don't think that's a valid loophole Tongue

Here's a valid loophole: given that whirlwind's Tor site is still operational in some way, decodex could deposit another 0.001 BTC (the minimum required for mixing) and share the evidence here. This way, the Type-3 Flag becomes valid again, aligning with all the relevant points.

Naravno da se (ne)sjećam, ali imam sve crno na bijelo! (još jedan freak za tablice, kao slackovic)  Smiley

2020. : Kao i nekima od vas, prva kampanja mi je bila u Bitvestu. Izdržao sam čak nekoliko mjeseci kod 'Srnje' u njihovim legendarnim tierovima.
08/20-12/20 : Bitamp kod Hampuza, $25 tjedno za Full Member rank
01/21-02/21 : Nakitcoins kod Hampuza, $50 tjedno za Sr. Member rank
03/21 : Dva tjedna u JacksClub.io, $40 tjedno za Sr. Member rank
04/21-08/23: Freebitco.in kod Hampuza, krenuo od $40 tjedno za Sr. Member, pa do $82,50 tjedno za Hero/Legendary rank
Trenutno : l0tt0.com pod posebnim uvjetima za $100 tjedno

Koliko se sjećam, kampanje sam mijenjao samo kad sam morao (završene kampanje) ili zbog slobodnog mjesta u višem rangu. Nakon Bitvesta, ovo je prvi put da sam napustio jednu kampanju zbog boljih uvjeta u drugoj.

Do you know of anyone who has actually used their anonymity mining service though?
It's kinda in the name to not boast about it. Is the escrow address public? I'm curious how much of it was claimed.

There is still 17,367.94 DAI remaining in the escrow address (from the initial 40k). Out of all the outputs, the largest transaction was 4,060 DAI.



Apart from the website still accepting deposits, it's looking more like an "exit" than an "exit scam".

Considering the fact that all the BTC is still untouched in their multisig address, what are the chances that something actually happened to the owner and he was the only one with access to everything?
