What is so suspicious about old addresses, likely miners from that time, moving their balance to another addresses? Sure, they might sell some of them, but it is not like that is a malicious thing to do. Just a few days ago there were news of a 1000 BTC being moved, and you'll likely see more of them in the future. Doesn't mean they are satoshi though.

I'm not sure how it usually goes but I believe writing a whitepaper or roadmap can be done while you work on your website, especially if you work together with other people. It will also help people to consider your idea more seriously since they can see what is your plan in the future, although it doesn't guarantee that you will succeed. Unless you work alone, I don't see the point of delaying of writing or thinking about your roadmap unless you want to just go day by day with your projects.

As far as I'm aware, 3commas is a centralized service unlike Gekko or other open-source trading bot. The only thing that I recognize belongs to the same category from your list is Zenbot. I did try it in the past and it works just fine, but it is also a bit outdated. Not sure if there is an alternative that is still maintained by its developer nowadays since the competition from centralized services like 3commas is quite harsh, even though there are cases where users get exploited through them. CMIIW.

Many of those feedbacks comes from reviews from a year old or more. He didn't sell anything in the past 12 months and a lot of his products seem to have been removed too. I'd not be surprised if the account changed hands or something similar happened which led him to sell shady products like this.

If I get this right, they build their algorithm basically by trying to find patterns to past accepted hashes. How do we know if that is reliable, or if there is a pattern to begin with? Their claim that the algorithm can predict the future hash is also quite unbelievable. I'll wait until some miners try using it and see how exactly it work. You're right, it sounds just full of bullshit for now.

Hacks in the past utilize this feature to manipulate the pump and dump/trading activity of its users. Let's say your platform is working as intended but if you expose the users' API key, then it is still problematic for most users. While I do understand that this can happen with any platform, I don't see the benefit of using it here since other competitors tell us how the story goes. Personally, I am a bit biased against trading API platforms since they don't seem to offer good security measures. What kind of protection do you have in mind? Surely it is not so secret that talking about it would lead to data leaks.

I tried this setting and it still generates my seed pretty fast. As a non-techy user, how would I know if the generated seed is relatively safe from brute force or not? Is there any tool or way for me to check the entropy value?

Don't bother sending a PM to anyone claiming to help you if they don't have any reputation on this forum. If you really want to help then post your advice here like what everyone did above. No point going into PM if you want to help, you can even try posting in French plus English language if that's what you want to address through PM.

It does not matter if you've bookmarked it or not, you should never connect your wallet to malicious websites. The best way to go about this is to look for their official social media/websites and verify them before visiting them. There is virtually no end to phishing websites. The best way to protect yourself from stuff like this is to be vigilant at all times. Don't rely on bookmarks too much since some attackers use DNS hijacking to scam visitors.

I believe most of them are going to fail. The niche is just too small IMO. Unless they have a big user base before, launching a new feature like this with your only advantage over your competition is not going to cut it. Not to mention most of them launch their own token which is going to be worthless most of the time.

I'm not sure how the government handles their payment, but is it not possible for them to just convert to Yuan on the fly when they want to use this payment network? If this is possible I can see they buy USD and then hold it for some time, then convert it to Yuan when the needs arise. Obviously, if it is for large volume payments then things can be troublesome. Suffice to say countries with terrible US relations would likely be eager to use this more than others.

I'd not call it not advisable, just that you should not rely on them. They can help if things go wrong, but they are not a magic tool that will accelerate your transaction plus most of the time they have a limit on how many and which transactions to accelerate. Using RBF is going to be better IMO.

With how different people interpret DEX, it would be difficult to figure out which one is real if you only take claims at face value. AFAIK, if they need an e-mail to login, can freeze your account at any given time, can block you due to IP or address restriction, requires KYC, or limit your trade at any given time then they are likely not decentralized. Obviously there are more things to consider, just remember that not all DEX services are decentralized in nature to some extent.

Just keep in mind that some reviews can be fake too. Are you familiar with the service mentioned in the review above? They claim to get their money back after they report the exchange to them, but I'm not sure they offer a service like that. Besides, if the exchange doesn't want to return your money back, I doubt the user will find success reporting them to a third-party service. Unless they are suing them. CMIIW.

I guess you're referring to hot wallets like web wallets (e.g. Blockchain.com) that need an e-mail and password to log in. If you do use a wallet like that, consider moving to other wallets asap since they are less secure. You also need to depend on another party to make sure you can still access your wallet if you never export your seeds before.

What's the benefit of using your tools compared to other trading bots or trading on Binance directly? What kind of complex features that you have that others don't? Exposing Binance API is prone to hacking/abuse like what happened to 3commas and others, if what I can do is a simple buy and sell order I'd not use your platform for that.

I think you misread me. I said you should avoid them if they only offer wrapped tokens, meaning that if they offer native BTC swaps then you can try them (after checking other things like their past problems, etc). Wrapped tokens are risky since they can get frozen, lost their value, and so on quickly. Besides, why would you settle with wrapped tokens if you can trade native BTC? Exposing yourself to wrapped tokens will just increase the risk of your funds losing its values.

Do you have any sources on this? As far as I can remember, most suggestions related to mining do assume that users have cheap access to electricity, but not limited to renewable energy. Renewable energy does have some benefits and miners might profit more from it in the long run, but the cost to build one or gain access to it is quite difficult.

Try to raise some noise in social media since I've seen some cases get processed quicker after the user complaints on Reddit. By quicker I mean months. It is unfortunate but some exchanges are as quick as snails when processing complaints. But this also depends on luck since they might no longer care about their reputation at this point. Just keep in mind that the cost to make a case against them is probably a lot, and for some users moving to other platforms might be better. Best of luck if you try to sue them though.

There are many sources if you search with the keyword "opt-in RBF" through search engines. Basically, it allows you to replace your transaction with a new transaction with a different fee. You can also scroll around this forum since some topics do discuss it like this one[1].
