Blockchain claimed their service as a noncustodial wallet service. But I doubt it's not a true noncustodial wallet. It's pretty sure blockchain staff could see the wallet id and emails as well. To be more honest, even a site would code like this that staff would directly log in to the user account without a password. If the site isn't open-source we can't verify it and without a web developer expert who can read the code language, no one could detect it. So abusing the system is possible. But if there is an activity log on the admin system, then it's possible to detect who abuses the system. Because if someone scam by blockchain staff, then I think the user will not stay calm and eventually authorities would notice it. Anyway, I believe the story op mentioned on the thread is an issue of hacking. If someone would hack the email, means it's pretty easy to find the wallet id. Then hacker could change the email accordingly.

Blockchain.com openly admits that they see wallet IDs and emails. This is how I was able to change my 2FA email back to previous.

Actually it's quite possible that Blockchain.com found the thief, but did not notify the authorities, because such incident would be terrible PR for the company. They mostly likely only fired him, as they would do everything to hide it.

There's no reason to change 2FA email if the email was hacked, because hacker would have access to the wallet already. And besides 2FA change takes few weeks.
Also I have 2FA on my email and logs that prove that no one else accessed my email.

The whole discussion in the article about 2FA resets is useless.
Blockchain.com wallet clearly states that every user should save their seed (24 worda) in a piece of paper to properly back up your wallet.

How will recovery seed help if the funds are already stolen?

1. Promoting ANN bumping group is not wrong nor illegal.
It certainly isn't  illegal, but it's also something that legit projects simply won't do for many reasons, mostly because those who are offering such services are also ready to promote the scams, without any exception. Those who really want to promote the project in a honest way will just run a signature campaign.

2. Buying high ranking accounts is not wrong nor illegal.
True, not illegal but it is frowned upon, and for a good reason. Many sold accounts were used for scam purposes so that explains why buying/selling accounts will usually get you red tagged.

3. If a person was consulting an ICO that turned out to be dishonest, it doesn't mean that he did anything wrong or even knew about the scam. Or with that logic do you blame all workers of Mt. Gox and Blockchain.com for the scams their company did?
Again true, but when you combine that with all the others things he did, it becomes an issue.


By the way, there was no need for you to use a new account just to write all that, you could have just used your main account, Mr Poutintsev.

1. Just because some scam project used bumping services, it doesn't mean that trustworthy project can't use same services as well. It's the same if you claimed that law abiding citizens cannot buy hand guns, because criminals use them too.

2. People buy accounts, because it's almost impossible to get enough merit as a newbie. Old members like you never give merit to new members. Some buy old accounts to run the signature campaign, which you mentioned as alternative to bumping service. Everyone knows that as a newbie the things you can do on this forum are very limited, so that's the reason why people buy old accounts.

It looks like you have no better things to do.
There are actual criminals in crypto space who have stole money form other people. I suggest you to focus on them.
But instead you waste your time discussing a person who only does things that against your own moral code.

P.S. The reason for the use of alt-account is obviously that you tainted his account with fake negative trust scores. Assholes like you do it, to everyone who you don't like. For this reason lot of Bitcointalk.org user have alt-accounts, with what they can say what they want without the fear of getting revenged.

It might be a good idea to check your facts first before attacking someone with personal insults. Rikafip never gave a negative trust to @poutintsev.



He gave @ico-services negative score, you dumbass Cheesy

First of all, lets start with poutintsev who has an interesting bitcointalk history, to say the least:

What's exactly the problem here?

1. Promoting ANN bumping group is not wrong nor illegal.
2. Buying high ranking accounts is not wrong nor illegal.
3. If a person was consulting an ICO that turned out to be dishonest, it doesn't mean that he did anything wrong or even knew about the scam. Or with that logic do you blame all workers of Mt. Gox and Blockchain.com for the scams their company did?

Just because you don't agree with him or don't like him, it doesn't mean that there has been any violation.
Get a life!

P.S. The reason for the use of alt-account is obviously that you tainted his account with fake negative trust scores. Assholes like you do it, to everyone who you don't like. For this reason lot of Bitcointalk.org user have alt-accounts, with what they can say what they want without the fear of getting revenged.
