IMPORTANT: Ledger Nano S and Ledger Nano X SECURE RNG CHIP CRITICAL VULNERABILITY
Inside Ledger hardware wallet, we use the Secure Element chip to generate and store the private keys for your crypto assets. Unfortunately, some chips, a limited number, were found to be defective by the external company commissioned by Ledger for the production. The problem identified concerns the lack of a correct source of entropy for use by the random number generator may lead to the generation of predictable sequences of numbers and therefore of private keys by malicious users.
Ledger is actively working on the problem to replace all defective devices. Please check now if your device is defective with the Ledger SE tool.

Recap — Lessons From Bittorrent For the Blockchain

Don’t worry about what decentralization is, worry about what it does.

In particular worry about whether it enables rules to be broken that unlock new ways of doing things or new opportunities that were previously prohibited directly or indirectly by rules. Bluntly, if you’re not breaking rules, you’re doing it wrong.

If you are breaking rules, watch out!

Rules of various types have many defenders, guardians and enforcers. A good way to tell if you’re breaking the rules are if there’s anyone out there that actually cares and wants you to cut it out. There are many examples of rules that have outlived their usefulness, and rule-making is often slow and can be helped along by a good dose of well-intentioned rule-breaking.

Intent is an extremely dangerous signal to send, and yet for companies trying to get established and funded it is hard to see how they can be silent about their intent. Bittorrent succeeded by chance. Bitcoin disclosed its intent but protected itself with anonymity. I’m not sure what to recommend for newly starting companies in this space except to remember that your stated intent will likely follow you forever.

Truly decentralized projects are extremely complex and complexity is costly. Those costs may be differently allocated in a decentralized system, but we should be very cautious of projects that are either overly optimistic about how quickly they can get things done, and especially of those who promise decentralization as a way to make things cheaper.

Governance of a decentralized system is extremely hard.

If you have good decentralization then the coordination costs are going to be very high and the process will be very slow and often ineffective. (Bitcoin? Ethereum??) But if you have strong coordination and an ability to execute a plan with tight discipline, you may not have a very decentralized system and are quite likely exposed to the long arm of rule-enforcement.

The ICO boom is the best example yet of successful rule-breaking.

 Capital formation via the boom around ICOs was the first and maybe only strong example of rule-breaking that has taken place in the blockchain space so far. It has also seems to have been effectively stopped by the rule enforcers, somewhat calling into question how well designed the entire decentralized system was to support this use case.

Rule-breaking is not sustainable without bounds. States (and even ISPs) have enormous power. The stated intent of Bitcoin to undermine rules around government control of sovereign currencies sets an interesting challenge to governments in the case that it ever looks like it might succeed. China and North Korea have both demonstrated pretty clearly that if you control the pipes of the internet then you control the internet. Bittorrent could have been eradicated by state intervention, but most states chose a lighter touch approach. The same is mostly true so far for crypto-currencies, but the scope is so much greater and time will tell at what point a state actor will feel compelled to intervene. (For example if you invent a way for no-one to have to bother paying taxes any more… well good luck with that…)

The ‘winners’ created in the wake of Bittorrent disruption (Spotify and Netflix) shed any semblance of decentralization — it simply wasn’t necessary any more, and actually made things harder. But their success was the result of a paradigm shift where files were abstracted away. In the wake of disruption brought by Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency systems, what will be abstracted away? What will be the paradigm shift? And will a decentralized architecture become irrelevant once the ‘new’ way is identified?

8  Economy / Scam Accusations / SCAM: MinexPay crypto debit card by minexpay.com / Minexcoin on: October 08, 2018, 05:40:14 PM
Updated (12.03.2019)


Upaycard has never issued payment cards to Minexpay, but to lithuanian company UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS. That company Minexpay illegally used as a cover,shell company for theirs illegal activities. Minexpay used UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS account illegally,without Upaycard knowledge, plus Minexpay were sending cards to countires out of EEA zone ,despite Upaycard license covers only EEA.

Minexpay did massive violations of Upaycard and Mastercard rules and regulations and it was caught in it. UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS account is suspended indefinetely and Minexpay illegal non-branded payment card program is over.




Summary

Every new attempt to deliver what they promised leads to a new shady and scammy company. They are blatant scammers.


All the Info:

The team behind https://minexpay.com/ and Minexcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1847292.0 is promising to release a creditcard.

First they wrote that it will work this way.

https://faq.minexpay.com/article/237-how-does-minexpay-work

Quote
How does MinexPay work?
All MinexPay cards are issued by our own offshore bank with an international license (category B), established and managed by MinexSystems. By ordering a MinexPay card, each client becomes a participant in the trust fund and, at will, transfers their assets to be managed by the fund.

The fund, based on the value of said assets, acts as a guarantor of the corresponding credit limit (opened by the bank for the cardholder).

Fees associated to that guarantee are 0.01% per year.

When a client spends his credit limit, the fund immediately sells the cardholder's crypto-assets at an exchange rate defined on Coinmarketcap.com (at the time of payment).

After the sale, the client’s available balance is updated accordingly.




Then nothing happend and they just promised to reveal the name of the bank "soon".

And then they did not open their own bank. Instead they announced a partnership.

MinexPay Signs a Contract with ČSOB Bank

We are pleased to announce that we’ve made a deal with ČSOB bank for the first MinexPay cards. ČSOB is one of the largest commercial banks operating in the Czech Republic since 1964. This bank has enhanced its considerable experience with openness towards forward-thinking technologies such as blockchain.



But this partnership is not real.

Quote
"We have to rebut the claim of @minexcoin, which has announced that we have recently entered into a contract that allegedly relates to payment cards. We have not made any such business with Minex Pay and do not cooperate with Minex Pay in other areas."


And the answer from the team is just an other excuse

Bank partnership clarification

Currently, we are experiencing a misunderstanding about the partnership between our party and the bank. We assure that we have signed the contract with the help of the bank affiliate company. According to the documents with the bank, the MinexPay trademark is not disclosed. MinexPay is not an entity, but a trademark that cannot sign contracts by default.

We are preparing more clarifications on the issue to inform our communities as soon as possible.


and then this:

MinexPay official statement: ČSOB bank partnership

Dear community, we have faced a misunderstanding regarding our relationship between MinexSystems and ČSOB bank. As you know, we have recently revealed the news that we have successfully signed a contract with the bank for our card project, MinexPay. However, the bank has posted a short statement denying this contract. We want to clarify this situation in this post.

Chain2pay company, registered in Estonia, has obtained licenses for working with cryptocurrencies. There is a valid contract between Chain2Pay and card program manager. At the same time, there is an agreement between the card program manager has a deal with the card issuer. Finally, the card issuer has a signed contract with the bank.

MinexSystems is working directly with the card program manager that is acting as a bridge between our company and the bank.

In this situation, the card program manager has announced the name of the bank. And here’s where the misunderstanding arises, as the bank has no information about the MinexPay trademark.

Currently, we are negotiating with the bank to clarify the situation.

Again we have to respond. We do not cooperate with MinexPay (@minexcoin) or Chain2pay (Mr. Boris Shulyaev). Nobody even contacted us to explain the situation. Such statements are potentially threatening our brand and we are ready to oppose them.

Following a review of recent Tweets, we would like to take this opportunity to clarify the status of the MinexPay/Chain2Pay application.

Quote
As an intermediary provider, we work closely with the Card Issuance company who in turn collaborates with the source Bank.

Quote
It is not unusual that the Bank has no knowledge of MinexPay/Chain2pay. The provision of services is between Novarise S A Limited/Chain2Pay/Card Issuer.

OK there are four/five steps.
1. Chain2pay
2. MinexPay
3. Novarise S A Limited
4. unknown Card Issuance company
5. unknow source Bank.

Can you guess what the bank aswered?





Great images mr.pacy.mf thank you for your efforts in exposing these scammers.

As soon as ČSOB confirm the Novarise Secrecy lie please update here.

You may ask if there are still minexcoin supporters.
Yes there are.
One of them is TeMHuK (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=840028)
You can see him in this video together with the founder.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=500_N9z3SMI&feature=youtu.be

He is writing PMs with threats to users that think and write that all the Minexcoin-stuff is just a scam.





==============
==============






The scammer fool Temhuk sent me a PM saying he and his scammer friends "will do everything to destroy my reputation"  


I received a message from Temhuk, the first he sent me. I replied asking him to own up to being a scammer.

He sent me another message (second one) but he lied again. I told him he is a liar and that I will try to save people from investing in Minecoin.


Thats why I wanted to know why I dont get threats because i opened this topic.

The answer was:


because I have no idea who you are.

Meanwhile the official account just post this:



MinexPay card allows you to instantly pay with different cryptocurrencies directly at any POS terminal, just like with your ordinary payment card.
We are wondering, how are you going to use it? Share your plans with us!

And to make things even worth abs-iaccount.com down. What will Minex do/say?

Lets see what happens next.

TeMHuK left me this trust rating:

Scammer. Be aware of him.

This is a good way to defend Minexcoin.


The next step is:

MinexPay official statement about recent events with card manager company and bank partnership:

Dear community,

As you may now from our past posts and announcements, we have signed a contract with a card manager company as an intermediary for Chain2Pay (MinexSystems' subsidiary) to issue the first MinexPay cards in partnership with the bank.

According to the contract terms working card program (including the cards issued and sent to us) would have been launched not later than on the 24th of October to our costumers' pleasure.

As soon as this date have passed, the terms were not fulfilled and misunderstanding happened between the bank and us. We had to terminate the contract and suspend a relationship with the intermediary as suspicious. We want to abstain from comments regarding the third party's workflow, despite we fully understand it caused unpleasant consequences such as disinformation and certain accusations. Regarding the contract termination we will take down the bank mentions from our social media channels and blog as irrelevant (today EOD), the bank notified.

We hope that all the affected parties, especially the bank and our community, will take this information with understanding.

We want to point once again that in spite of difficulties we continue our work for MinexPay cards and, as MinexSystems CEO previously mentioned in our Telegram chats, successfully found new partners that value transparency and honesty to make it happen in the legal landscape for which we stand.

With regards,
MinexSystems

So they stopped to work with all the partners they had to release the card.

suspicious: Dont blame others please.

And now they want to try it again.....



Cards have been sent.

Has received my tracking today, very pleased.


BUT!



After thorough investigation I have additional informations which will completely debunk this payment cards drama:

- If you carefully look at the card presented on Telegram as Minex card you will see on the bottom of the card a name UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS

But this is not a name of some person ,but name of Lithuanian Human resources company !!








What happened?

Boris made illegal, secret deal with owner of this Lithuanian company.

UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS company(eng translation CRYSTAL BOTTOM,strange name for HR company) will present Boris customers as theirs recruiters-workers.

This Lithuanian company made a contract with UPAY(probably had it already), not Boris company.


Same Lithuanian company probably provided false residence documentation for Minex non-EEA members.

Most certainly UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS company didnt do it for free ,but for some arranged percentage, they will illegally give Boris full control under theirs account on UPAY, which has no clue about this secret deal.

This is so illegal and not only some agreement breach, but criminal behaviour.  Who will get them first UPAY,Mastercard,FCA or Lithuanian authorities ,we will see.

Unfortunately ,this is Minex self-destruction made by completely irresponsible and reckless acts of owner and his mens.

How are these cards "working".

I think the minexcoin card activation is subject to minimum amount of minexcoin to be locked to use those tariff offered. But @thurderjet do you have idea how they will set those limit on each card

Minexpay imposed theirs own tariffs and limits. Original Upaycard does not have such division on special tariff plans,it has its own unique fees and limits.

As I know Minexpay imposed artificially division of cards on special tariffs,described before on theirs site - Standard, Gold, Platinum and Infinite.

Due to different limits between Upaycard and Minexpay tariffs, Minex Platinum and Infinite tariffs cant have max.daily withdrawal limits of EUR 5000 and EUR 20000,but max. EUR 4000 daily ,because it is Upaycard limit. Also max. monthy withdrawal for Platinum and Infinite tariff cant be EUR 100.000 and EUR 600.000 ,but max. EUR 50.000

You can see Upaycard business card fees and limits on theirs page and compare it with Minexpay tariffs,keeping in mind that Minexpay(until it last,because it uses illegally other company account on Upaycard) will have to arrange theirs limits to Upaycard own limits :

https://www.upaycard.com/limits


Then why are they asking for selfies and why all that KYC?

What does Borys intend to do with all the ID and bank account numbers and signatures he has accumulated?



Selfie with payment card is only needed on some exchanges as a owner verification measure for enabling deposit/withdrawal by using payment cards.

Why Boris is asking for selfies? - He can sell BTCs on Upaycard UAB KRISTOLINIS DUGNAS account and fund user card,but cant do it with MNX coins.If someone wants to fund card through selling MNX coins,Boris needs to change MNX for EUR first and he can do it only at EXMO exchange.

But there is a problem. His cards are non-branded and he is using other shell company to cover illegal doings.He cant open corporate account on EXMO, change directly users MNX and send EUR to theirs cards.


So, he is using provided documents and selfie with card to open accounts on EXMO for every user without theirs knowledge about it.Selfie with card is needed verification measure on EXMO if user wants to withdraw money on his/her card.

Unauthorizedly using customers data to open individual accounts on EXMO for enabling option to withdraw money directly on cards,Boris will cover his tracks in all this mess and if anything goes wrong all blame will be put on individual users.


List of Boris illegal doings gets bigger and bigger every day.

10  Other / Meta / data protection policy and Right to be forgotten on: September 09, 2018, 11:02:51 AM
Hi

I have two questions.

1. Data protection policy
I checked the registration from. During registration you don't habe to say "OK" to anything. Thats why I would like to know if there is a data protection policy for this forum?
e.g. I would like to know what kind of data is stored. During registration and while using the forum.

2. Right to be forgotten
The GDPR (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation) introduced a right for peoples to have personal data deleted aka the  "The right to be forgotten".

Is this something that this forum takes care of?

Quote
Q: What do I need to do to make my community forum compliant with the GDPR?

A: The GDPR includes the following key requirements:

Consent: You need explicit consent and you need to clearly inform people how you are going to use their personal data.  For example, if you are handing over your community member list to marketing to be used in various ad campaigns, you should let people know.

Right to be forgotten (right to erasure): If someone asks that you delete their personal data, in most cases, you’ll need to comply. (More on this in the next question below.)
Right to Access:  If someone asks you what personal data you have on them, you will need to provide an answer about what you have, how you’re using it, and be able to provide a copy of the data.

Data portability: The GDPR says that you will need to provide someone with a copy of their personal data in a format that is machine readable and that could be imported into another platform. We can’t imagine this being a frequent request but you should be able to produce a CSV or MySQL export of a user’s data.

Data security: You have an obligation to make sure that you are making reasonable efforts to keep data secure. Basic security measures include making sure your community forum is served over HTTPS and that data is stored and transferred securely. A commercial community forum provider will have put in place a raft of security measures that involve physical security, network security, application security and policies around data handling.
https://blog.vanillaforums.com/community-answers-to-common-questions-about-gdpr-community-forums

And this question is valid for this forum too i think:

Quote
Q: Is user generated content (UGC) personal data? Is UGC subject to rules around data portability and erasure?

A: This is a tricky one.  What if a member asks that you delete all their posts? What if those posts were valuable both to the community and your company? We feel that if the posts are stripped of identifying information ( for example the username and photo of the member), they do not need to be removed. The exception here is if the posts contain information that identifies the person that is requesting removal. That would also include posts with personal data about the requester that was posted by another member. You might consider laying out in your terms of use or privacy policy who owns UGC and what will be done if someone requests removal of posted content.


Thanks for the clarification.

but i dont remember the pw a i used.

=> is there a way to restore this wallet?

because the dat file is not excepted. but inside this file i only saw btc-addresses.

thank you.

hi there

i am really getting bored. i am interested in the tech of all these altcoins too. but in this subforum nobody is takling about it.

ICOs, bounties or airdrop, how to get rich fast, investment short or long term, bla bla bla.

arent there any news about technology of all these coins that are out there? do i have to leave and find a new forum?

why is there no childboard for ledger wallets? I think this would help many user if questions would be collected and some sticky topics in the subforum created.

who do i have to ask to open one?
EDIT: i moved to Meta from Development & Technical Discussion > Alternative clients

Hier ein gar nicht so schlechter Text über das Blockchain Summit, welches in Zug stattgefunden hat.

Die globale Blockchain-Avantgarde trifft sich am Zugersee

Am Blockchain Summit diskutieren Geist, Geld und Geschäft. Ein Augenschein vor Ort.
 
Empfangen werden die vielen Herren und wenigen Frauen im Zuger Theater Casino von Hostessen unter leuchtend-pinken Schirmmützen mit der Aufschrift "Blockchain Summit – Crypto Valley". Über dem repräsentativen Bau haben sich ein paar Wolken zusammengebraut, aber es sind angenehme 15 Grad. Ideales Wetter also, um sich einen Tag lang mit der Gegenwart und Zukunft von Blockchain zu beschäftigen und zuzuhören, wie sich Geld mit Idee, also Investor mit Startup-Gründer, unterhält.

Hi there

I just bought Revealer Zero. This is really something that can help you by keeping your backups organized. And safe i hope...

https://revealer.cc

Quote
Seeds and pass phrases backups are the last link of cryptographic asset storage. Revealer was created to bring peace of mind to these backups.

Quote
Simple: deep cold two-factor backup solution
Secure: one-time pad with 128 bits of entropy
Redundant: trustless printing and distribution
Flexible: encrypt any secret you want for your revealer
Solid: does not break the first rule of cryptography

They will be shipped in Mai and as soon as I used it i will post a feedback.

What do you think about it?
To read some feedback from more advanced techies would be most useful.

i stumbled over the user quazi747 and i think that they have to improve the bot that is posting this nonsense. otherwise it will be over soon  Undecided or is this a human that is writing?

20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Monero LESS UNTRACEABLE THAN IT SEEMS on: March 27, 2018, 09:17:41 PM
A really interesting text was published on wired.com.

https://www.wired.com/story/monero-privacy/

the most import parts are in my opinion:
1.
that security problems that are discovered can be fixed. but that all the transactions that have been made before the change wont be altered. thats why the change in the monero code last year does not help to solve the problems of the past.
2. the quotes of Riccardo Spagni just because i like to read what devs think and how they react.

and please. dont talk about instamine or dash.
