Bitcointalk.org is banned WITHIN Wikipedia. If you try to add a link to the forum as reference when editing any article a message will pop-up saying it's banned. I'll add an image to the OP to make it more clear.

It seems as though bitcointalk is banned in wikipedia. Why is that?

It can't be added as a reference or otherwise linked. Edits with that won't go through.
Bitcointalk is a forum where significant announcements were made. Having it banned in wikipedia is quite unreasonable.

I believe that we should do something to change that. Anyone here with knowledge over how Wikipedia works that could provide advice on if there's something to be done?

Can someone with coding skills check what the new update on bytecoin's code is really? They supposedly fixed the issued the network was failing and the release note of the update is:
From: https://github.com/bcndev/bytecoin/blob/master/ReleaseNotes.md Does this fix really address issues with the downloader and was it really this issue that caused the network to stall?

Now, isn't that fishy? How could a project like Bytecoin have overlooked a trivial issue such as the downloader? Did this effectively manage to shut down its entire network? How was the fix so swift? Makes me wonder if this was a planned incident.

There were huge volumes and one'd wonder where those coins were coming from when deposits were disabled.There's still a big difference in price between exchanges.

This is worth re-taking a look to after today's debacle... BCN got into Binance, went a few time 10x up in price then all exchanged oddly disabled deposits... People were buying from poloniex and sending to Binance but to no avail... There's tons of people complaining of losing money and myriads of stuck transactions.

Makes me wonder if this was in insider job. Was there yet another backdoor in bytecoin's code that would allow to halt the network? Was this the last avail of developers to dump their coins?

I've made a thread to discuss this new incident here.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3678079.0

Binance listed the coin and now they're blamed for causing a high network load.
All exchanges have closed Bytecoin deposits. The price went up more than 10x through the day but really, who's buying the coins? Most importantly, who's supplying the coinc to binance if deposits closed?

The development team is alleged of doing this intentionally. Is Bytecoin a scam? How could it be that all exchanged started facing issues with deposits at the same time? Could there be insider activity involved?

Edit: a new theory wants Bytecoin's developers involved with insider trading that might be connected to the 693 million bytecoins that were created through a bug. More here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/8i5mw1/a_flaw_in_bytecoins_code_had_allowed_for_693/

A supposed fix has been released by bytecoin to address the network issues.

Live now.

You can get a personal USD bank account in LeuPay. Not sure if i would be IBAN though but you probably just mean account number.

I contacted bone of this project's supposed partners.


The partnerships disllayied in this ICOs website are lies. Page archive here: http://archive.is/Q1BdY

I would like the Ico 'just to address this. The burden of proof to make it clear that their ICO is not a SCAM is upon them

It's interesting how now there's a push to re-adopt scrypt-n.

I can see why some would reason in favor of that here.

But I remember that devs initially denied that ASICs could mine this coin. It's possible that they picked scrypt-n by mistake given that the coin was advertised as ASIC resistant on its release.
Either that of the devs knowingly released Garlicoin on an unexperienced audience knowingly putting the ASIC-broken scrypt-n as it's algo, potentially to benefit from such with their insider knowledge. And if that's the case, Allium, the new algo, is just damage control. It seems like development has been abandoned after that point anyway.

Is there proof of the "16000 ETH RAISED"? Saying that it was in a private sale is not acceptable proof.

Past ICO's have used such lie as a marketing tactic so immutable proof should be warranted.

Yup.

This is for market orders, i.e. selling at market price:



And there's a fee for PayPal withdrawal as well.

Overall, very big fees.

100 EUR in BTC would go through the fee for BTC/SLL 3.9% -> 96.1
96.1 EUR in linden would go through the fee for SLL/EUR 2.9% -> 93.31
93.31 EUR would go through the PP withdrawal fee 1+2% ->

90.44 EUR final sum.

I've e-mailed you, look in your PM for my email address if you'd like to search for my email.

What I dislike most about autobuy links on moderated threads is that they allow for sellers to have more leniency with illegal services.
Nobody can call them out and in this way their threads remain up for much longer.

For example:
Anyone offering giftcards with discounts greater than 5% is most definitely selling carded cards. This is highly illegal as it involves stealing other people's credit card information and is essentially money laundering. Those cards end up refunded, sometimes in the same day as well. So it's an activity that does no good to the world other than benefit the one that stole the credit card.

Perhaps e-giftcard selling should be entirely banned on this forum. That's my opinion, some might find it draconian though. However, there's no way to tell legit from fake when it comes to e-giftcards and it'd be too resource intensive for mods to moderate every thread so a total ban makes sense to me.

Also: cracked accounts go for sale

All those accounts on subscription based services that go for sale for a fraction of their monthly subscription are obviously hacked into. They stay active for however long the original owner doesn't notice that someone else is in their account. But that process involves hacking and naturally, breach of personal information.

You mean that DATx is not willing to cooperate with providing the information of that admin?
In that case, I would agree with you.

OP P.S.

I see! Thanks for the insightful response. Apparently elections in Venezuela are nearing. So what we're hearing from western media (that are casually biased against Venezuela) is that Maduro's efforts might be tricks to sway the electorate. Whether or not that might be true, I don't know. It's quite weird because a few months earlier the same media was portraying Maduro's referendum as a plan to dictatorship. Why would he worry about elections if he was a dictator? I don't support Maduro but this is just sounding inconsistent.

But honestly, Maduro's moves seem very weird. I've also heard that in the event of another party being elected, all plans for petro could be scrapped.

Is there any way to acquire proof of what the Petro has raised? I wouldn't trust Maduro.

Given that it's an ICO, are we to assume that all those investors invested through the TGE?
