Any gambling service can apply for a master license at Curacao, the applications are still open. The only major requirement is having a proper legal structure that could accept responsibility in the event of issues.

Of course, after Curacao as a national licensing authority lost it's reputation due to overselling of sub-licenses to irresponsible parties, it's not so common to see a casino interested in a master license. If a casino has a proper legal standing they will apply for a localized license on countries they want to operate under their own frameworks. Curacao is kind of known of being a. Easy solution to aquire a trick license that does close to nothing for player security and oversight due to how they handle sub-licensing.

So you really think that Musk could not go bankrupt just due to the virtue of being rich by owning assets? See, the thing with Twitter is that while it may still be functional, it has lost a lot of its revenue and therefore the stocks musk posts as collateral are also in danger of being margin called. It's natural for stock prices to fluctuate anyway, but the issue with teitter is that it might be losing too much value...

Honestly, anyone could go bankrupt. We have seen this numerous times. Musk could very well become a textbook example too.

Binance sent a clarification email stating that in order to enable the new payment details and be able to transact in EUR again, users that had remaining balances from the previous provider will need to completely reduce their EUR balance to 0.





The FIAT partner Binance.com has is the only way to deposit and withdraw EUR in Binance. If the FIAT payment partner drops Binance then European users will have no way to transact with EUR inside Binance at all. EUR markets are closed to European users, deposits and withdrawals are closed and you can't even deposit via P2P. This time when paysafe (previous partner) dropped Binance, EUR in binance.com was set to reduce only i.e. only withdraw or spend.

That's because rollbit didn't buy a full license and operate under a sub-license as I said above. This offers very little protection to players. You can try reporting them to Curacao authorities and do tell us how it goes... But don't expect much from this.

If you create your wallet in a secure machine with open source software using an open operating system like GNU/Linux (better also to be done offline), there's no need to worry. You can keep your coins at your address for years. The only time to worry about moving the coins would be if bitcoin potentially needs a quantum resistance upgrade. You don't actually need to move your coins constantly. Cryptography of BTC isn't known to be broken and so long as that remains true an address whose private key was created securely has no need to stop being used to store coins. 

This is the footer of the rollbit website:

Honestly don't expect much from Curacao. It's a country that will issue licenses to anyone, end even then some casinos don't opt for the full license and instead sub-license under entities that sell their license multiple times. From the looks of it Rollbit looks to be doing the latter.

In my opinion would be to start a flag against their profile and link to this thread.
Then post the link to your flag here and anyone who reviews the evidence can choose to support it or not. Read more on how to create a flag here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5160255.0

Well Binance has the lowest trade fees among crypto exchanges so there's a lot of demand to use it for FIAT transactions also. But sadly when PaySafe cut binance off EUR markets imminently became unavailable as well as being unable to deposit or withdraw Euros. Binance having a new FIAT payments partner means access to EUR markets as well as deposits and withdrawals for European customers once again.

As of the debit card, it was actually Visa and Mastercard that cut binance off. I'm sure Binance would have been perfectly happy to continue working with them but with such a persistent duopoly on the field of debit cards it'll be hard to find a replacement for this system. So indeed issuance of new cards remains unaccesible but in the meantime existing users of the binance debit card could use it once again with EUR.

So around a month ago Binance's payment partner suddenly completely cut the exchange and its users off. Today However Binance announced that they integrated with a new payment partner and they platform would be rolling out EUR SEPA deposits to European users imminently.

So if you're a binance.com user this should make using the exchange easier again. It will once again be possible to cash out directly to your bank account or deposit FIAT money to buy crypto directly from binance.com. Also using the exchange's debit card once again becomes much easier. Hopefully this time Binance.com's payment partner can last in offering this service to European customers.

Note to those reading: binance.com is a different entity from Binance's partner that serve's U.S. customers (binance.us).

Should we trust western media when they make such claims?
The Wall Street Journal is operated by Rupert Murdoch and we all know what this guy's economic interests are.
It is in his best interest to support the United State's status quo. As we saw that western media were very quick to jump to conclusions against Palestine like when they were spreading the story about beheaded babies with no evidence and while it had already been disproven, it's logical that they'd want to put Russia in the same bag.

Do these news outlets say anything when billions of unaccounted dollars are moved through the SWIFT system by senators for insider trading? Absolutely no. But suddenly when an exchange is used for its intended purpose, transacting crypto, it's all Russia's fault. In fact there's hundreds of crypto exchanges domiciled in western countries too that could virtually be doing the same, but nobody bats an eye about these...

There's a lot of talk that Elon Musk taking on huge loans to buy Twitter could backfire massively on him as Twitter keeps losing value. Essentially what Elon Musk did was to use up most of his assets in terms of stock like Tesla and SpaceX to try and secure assets for his twitter loan. He's now so tied up in this Twitter debt, that if something goes wrong it could trigger a domino of effects. 

So he essentially already pledged tons of money to secure loans to buy Twitter, but his executive decisions lead to massive drops in value. Late last year he posted a lot of Tesla shares to avoid a margin call from banks that had loaned him to buy Twitter but this could potentially mean that if Tesla shares fall in price also, Musk could be losing his empire... Eventually, and potentially if things go wrong, losing his position as CEO in both Twitter as well as Tesla.

What are your thoughts on this? Is Musk about to lose it all?

Literally any mixer could freeze any order for whatever reason known to man. And it's not like this hasn't happened before.
From admins going AWOL to simply not caring to maintain their systems, all the way to outright scams. Mixers are also a 100% centralized and trust based system. There's not any documentation proving that they're better at what they claim to do than a simple exchange.

There's still plenty of exchanges that don't require any form of documentation for "Know Your Customer" regulations if you're dealing with crypto-only transactions.
Might sound odd but almost no country has come up with a full framework for crypto regulation, let alone fully enforcing it. For instance, even people from the U.S. can access most Chinese exchanges to this day, and exchange crypto-to-crypto without passing any checks.

Think about it, any top-10 exchange will have billions worth of BTC circulated through its systems every month. Yes, the receiving parties will be able to trace that the BTC might have passed through the exchange, but the origin of these funds is going to be as obscure as possible.

Compared to the average mixer, that circulates at best a few thousand BTC at any given time, no matter how much a mixer tries, it'll never be able to be as obscure about origin and "cleanness" of funds. Hell, even North Korea's Lazarous group is known to be laundering tons and tons of money they hacked from DeFi through no-KYC exchanges.

If OP here had made a single pass-through from a no-KYC exchange there's no way Uphold would have detected him. On the contrary, the mixer got detected in spite of all its efforts and hefty fee.
To think that Uphold, being as incompetent as they are, has systems in place to detect mixers, it's sure as hell is pretty rudimentary to detect such transactions except if the mixing service is exceptional at what it's doing and also has clean coins at hand. Which I doubt they would just hand over to any run in the mill customer doing small transactions like that.

It seems as though on a high level there has been a failure operationally on BC's behalf. The website is functional but basic functions around it are not working properly therefore leaving many people disappointed. Csshouts not functioning, signsture campaign participants not being updated in time and more.

My hypothesis is that BC amins might have realized that operating as a legit casino and just utilized that they had remained anonymous and started scamming. Or perhaps their managers went AWOL and therefore many functions are unaccessible. We might never actually know, but when a platform starts showing these signs it's best to stay away from it.

Having a mixer be detected could potentially mean bad opsec from the mixer's side. It's true that oftentimes mixers are used by people with notorious purposes, but the issue here is that the mixer can't simply disregard coins it received from people that end up making illegal transactions that could even be traced later.

However, the mixer's mistake lies in the fact that they didn't bother to actually "mix" the coins enough so as they can't be detected from whatever basic heuristic detection an automated exchange could be using. So by warnings like these I would indeed try to stay away from a service that doesn't fulfill it's basic function. A mixers job isn't just giving you coins that aren't yours. It's to give you coins whose origin isn't so easily detected... If they fail at that it's like a plane that can't take off. Seems nice but not very useful.

It seems as though OP learned the hard way that some mixer services simply don't care to output coins that are even more tainted and more easily traceable than what you might have put in... But that's not to say that the perfect mixer exists. Bitcoin tracing methods have been getting better. Oddly enough in the end using unorthodox methods like withdrawing from an exchange makes for better and also much cheaper mixing.. 

You can use software that allows you to create a wallet with a seed phrase of 12 words.
It's not impossible to remember 12 words if they are very important. This way you can keep the wallet in your brain. Also known as a bitcoin brainwallet. No one can steal your thoughts.
In cryptography we trust (& verify).

Again, the ICO dashboard of Uquid closed based on the post you also shared.
Comission funds were distributed directly into uquid.com accounts, independent of the ICO dashboard, and were used along with USD, EUR and a variety of cryptos for their services in user accounts.
I already demonstrated that my UQC was deposited in the same manner as a USD payment.

Can YOU tell me why you think that the image you provided refers to coin OTHER the the ICO when it explicitly mentions ICO coins and was posted at the period of the ICO ending?
You provided this, if you have a different interpretation you should be able to tell me too. I'm only second guessing as to why you're making this assumption to be honest.
Personally I feel like I've already provided enough evidence that the commission I received was received outside of the ICO as it had the same format as normal commissions on their platform.

Well, same goes for Ratimov's merits. There's a lot of exchange between Russian accounts on this forum.
Does this mean that it's ill gotten merit? Maybe. But it's up to interpretation really at the end of the day.
We've said it time and time again that local boards should be encouraged to be more active and merit is a nice incentive. But with all that liberty comes also some responsibility, and back-scratching indeed isn't an ideal scenario, especially if a language subforum isn't really growing but it's just the same members over and over again.

Should there be intervention though? This to me is questionable. Unless there's some serious alt accounting in place I don't see what's going on as particularly harmful.
