1  Economy / Scam Accusations / FUNNY: DueDex Derivative Exchange Blatant Plagiarism on: July 09, 2020, 07:46:42 AM
Sometimes assigning copy and pasting jobs to underpaid workers is detrimental to one's reputation, especially if you are still building one. Duedex was caught by Crypto Twitter in an obvious copy and paste operation.

If you go to https://duedex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046358214-Liquidation-Price-USDT-Contract- you will see the 'Mark Price' link still points to the old url target at Bybit's help pages. (Archived)

Just like not trusting clone cryptocurrencies, you shouldn't trust clone exchanges.
2  Other / Meta / BitcoinTalk is now protected from Phishing Sites on: July 04, 2018, 07:30:22 PM
So I asked Paul Walsh of MetaCert to include the site in their database of verified crypto sites.

FYI, MetaCert developed this Chrome extension that tells you if you're in the right crypto website. You get a green shield if the site is verified. This is very important for Binance, Bitmex, or even MyEtherwallet as it alerts you if you're being phished.

3  Other / Meta / Could Theymos rename Merit as a Like? on: January 25, 2018, 01:49:23 PM
The new Merit system seems ingenious in weeding out spam posters and low quality posts as it depends on the reader's response to the post. Thereby in order to rank up, one must rely on the generosity of the reader.

However, most people don't really bother learning about new stuff. It's 2018 and there are still many people who don't really understand blockchains! In fact, the natural tendencies of people is to just read posts and not bother with interacting with forum threads.

So, basically at this point, I believe only the old guards of the Bitcointalk forum would actually use this system which we have seen in the old "Trust" system.

I propose that the +Merit link be renamed as +Like because most people in the internet understand that more as they've seen it in Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, and etc.

Don't you agree? I believe renaming it would increase its adoption rate.

5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Where to Invest Bitcoin - ArchVentures SA, Portugal (ARCH) on: May 29, 2015, 08:45:41 PM
Dear long-term Bitcoin holder,

I know you may be bullish on Bitcoin, given the amount of investments pouring into Bitcoin-related businesses this 2015. However, it seems prudent that you don't just leave your bitcoins stored away, but instead, invest them in worthwhile ventures that could give you larger returns than just waiting for Bitcoin's price to appreciate in value in the years to come. I introduce to you, a brick and mortar business that may increase your Bitcoin holdings.


  • Moby is finally being assembled.
  • The company focuses on the Moby Project.
  • Build contracts for five Moby units already signed. Proof of contract to be released on Portuguese media.
  • Build contracts for eight Moby units are under negotiations
  • June 24, 2015 - Deadline for the submission of detailed marketing and business plans to http://www.portugalventures.pt/ in line for receiving some €600,000 funding in relation to EU Structural Funds under the Portugal2020 program. ArchVentures is required to put up €150,000 as show money for the grant. The company will use the funds raised during the initial offering of ArchVentures last year.



Located in Portugal, ArchVentures SA (ARCH) is a decentralized autonomous corporation (DAC). It was created as a startup holding company in which its equity is represented by a cryptographic token (Archcoin). ARCH employs a revolutionary method of profit distribution which aims to channel FIAT from outside the crypto ecosystem into Archcoin. Its areas of interests are: architecture, construction (real estate) and 3D printing. Although, it also has other projects which are crypto-related.

To improve equity fungibility, revenue from any of the holding company's products or services is to be used to purchase more tokens from the market, thereby making the holding company's equity token exponentially more valuable with each additional revenue stream. For example: a monthly net income of $50,000 (210BTC at $237) will be used to market buy 210BTC worth of Archcoin sell orders.

What is Archcoin?

  • It is not an alternative coin or altcoin. Archcoin exists solely for revenue sharing. It does not aim to be the future of digital currency or to replace Bitcoin.
  • It’s a cryptographic token representing interests in ArchVentures SA. However it is only a mean to that end. The company or majority of the holders can decide to change the underlying technology or shift to a different form altogether through coin swaps. ArchVentures SA is not dependent on Archcoin. Any advantage or disadvantage to Archcoin’s token technology does not affect its value.
  • Similar to traditional company shares, it also represents voting rights to which direction should ArchVentures take.
  • However unlike traditional shares with dividends, revenue or income is partially (50%) distributed to the market through market buy orders. This mechanism addresses the current uncertainty regarding regulation of crypto-securities. Though this is a matter of company policy which can be changed depending on current governmental policies towards crypto-securities.

ARCH's corporate trading platform (the wallet)

It has tiered conditional access levels which had created a natural self-audit system that has proven very effective when it comes to managing this corporate setup and its holders. Value in information is trusted to holders according to their own responsibility in the corporate structure. In this tiered setup, the amount of tokens held serves as a basis of evaluating trust and involvement with the company itself.

This unique approach opens doors for a new generation of DACs, fusing decentralized communities with traditional company structures using tiered conditional access levels to secure the flow of information. Although tailored to our specific ventures and “community” needs, the ARCH wallet concept is an outstanding, first-of-its-kind example for other future DACs looking to combine all relevant information and tools regarding the company and its equity token in one place. ARCH is taking that concept even further and seeks to integrate the whole company structure into its wallet as the company grows.

In a nutshell, Arch re-arranged how investors interacted in DACs to establish healthier lines of communication while changing the financial structure so that FIAT revenue would be injected directly into the tokens fungibility instead of being distributed through dividends.

Holding 8,000 archcoins enables you access to HQ information; 16,000 coins allows you access to incoming sales which means incoming market buys of archcoins. Holding 32,000 coins (CEO level) gives you voting rights in any major corporate undertaking.

It is located in Faro, Algarve, Portugal at LARGO S.LUIS nº11-C 1ºESQ.

Moby Prototypes under construction



Moby is a property of FunnyPyramid Lda, a company 50% owned by ArchVentures and the rest by partners that are boat manufacturers, nautical engineers and architects. It is primarily designed by Edgar Correia Soares, also the head CEO of ArchVentures SA.

Every time there's a Moby unit sold (roughly $30,000 value), that's a huge market buy of archcoins. You who holds 16k archcoins gets notified of an imminent buy in the market. This setup will guarantee that as long as there are Moby units sold, you will never be in danger of losing investment value.

Even if BTC prices are suffering, Moby as a product can succeed. Unlike many BTC-related companies that are depending on the price of Bitcoin to succeed. ARCH has a means to sustain itself beyond BTC and will only be further boosted by increase in BTC prices. How? If 1 BTC is $50 each, that means 600BTC market buys (one Moby sale). If 1 BTC is $200 each, that means 150BTC market buys. When BTC price increases, so does 1 archcoin since it's priced in BTC.

3D Printing Services

ArchVentures is foremost an architectural firm. The company has purchased an Ultimaker 2 to begin exploring another innovative market, the 3D printing realm - 3D Printing with focus on architecture modeling and 3D portraiting.  In their offices, they already provide 3D services for other architectural firms. This additional service will provide another revenue stream for the company.

Bitleu uses Scrypt-Jane library mining with Proof of Work having a variable N factor.

Coins in circulation: 18,669,373 as of block 124678 June 4, 2014

Block reward after block 125,000: 25 coins (approximately 36,000 coins mined per day)
188 years before completely mined out
.

Premine: 2.5 billion coins (Currently 99.99% of the total coins in existence)
Premine addresses: ?

Premine distribution:
2.4 billion coins will be distributed incrementally throughout the years to average Romanian citizens, businesses, and people involved in the coin development.

Phase 1 - Business adoption of BTL as method of payment - Romanian entrepreneurs can claim a portion of the premined coins. However, only companies that present viable projects powered by BTL will receive the funds. Each company must present owner’s ID and a registration or tax code as a proof of business. The Foundation plans to distribute an incentive of 50,000 BTL to any business that has successfully implemented BTL as a payment method, limited to the first 10 businesses. See main Bitleu thread for details.

Phase 2 - Romanian citizens - The coins will be distributed via their national ID number as proof of identity to receive coins each year, making sure that the coin will have widespread distribution. A database will be created for this purpose and the Foundation will play its role in making sure the distribution is fair and there will be no people receiving the same amount of money twice. 100 BTL will be distributed to each Romanian citizen who is able to present identification to the satisfaction of the system, for up to 10 million people (about 75% of Romanians of legal age). This action will be done through a secure online platform, with similar identification system as payment processors or banks are using today. Phase 2 will be divided into few stages, by the end of which unclaimed BTL will be made available to more people. This is of course the most important component for the launch of BTL, and this will be performed by the Foundation. BTL coins remaining after Phase 2 will go into the BitLeu Foundation's Fund.

Development Team - The rewards and perks will be of minimum 1000BTL up to 500,000BTL depending on the contribution made to grow the coin by a person or a community.
An amount (how much is not indicated) of premined coins will be allocated to the creator of the coin and to the primary development team, as follows:
- The development of the coin itself: rewards, marketing and advertisements, coding/applications, lawyer consultation for the next steps following the launch.
- The startup and development of the ecological and energy investment projects.
- Any other things pertaining to the development of BitLeu currency.
- Operational costs – this includes rewards and crowdfunding perks for community members who will help the BTL with equipment, servers, development and maintenance of BTL, the BTL Fund operations and so on.

Some bounties:
BTL Stick (Trezor):   1,000,000 BTL reward for the creator of a stick for BTL cold storage
Paper Wallet:   400,000 BTL reward for the programmer
Trading Platform:   400,000 BTL reward for the programmer
Pool:   100,000 BTL reward for the programmer
Campaigns:   20,000 BTL for online campaign leaders
Youtube Video:   Minimum 1 min 30 sec - maximum 4 min  = 10,000 BTL each
Faucets:   20,000 for clean, without pop-ups, faucets holders

Phase 3 - The BitLeu Fund (100 million BTL will go to BitLeu Foundation's fund for operational costs – development and maintenance. The Foundation can only pay its employees with BTL. It cannot sell them to pay its employees with other currencies. The Foundation will maintain an open ledger for all its transactions.)

A. BTLBC - BitLeu Business Credit - This BitLeu Fund will be responsible for the BitLeu Delivery to the Companies that have a sustainable business plan, powered by BTL.
B. BTLIF - BitLeu Investment Fund - This fund will invest in Romanian startups, and also will donate to charity and support projects that promote BTL. They will work with a lawyer to open our own Registry of Commerce and all startup businesses powered by BitLeu Investment Fund and BitLeu Business Credit will be recorded in this registry.
C. BTLRF - BitLeu Retirement Fund
