I thought I was the only one who had noticed this. He reminds me of jerry0 who would notoriously create multiple topic asking about random stuff that has even been answered.
Out of 3321 posts, he has 360 topics but has been less active lately.

The only difference is Jerry0 would sometimes annoyingly reply the threads with more similar questions and posts were wordly, unlike 325btc's.

W-smf.com

Was asked to make some trading there.
A stranger asked you to trade there, right?

It's scam mate,

Just look at the domain name for starters. There is no serious or reputable exchange that would have such a poor choice or domain name. It probably cost less than $5 to buy and use for scamming people.

But this has nothing to do with Bitcoin Discussion, so wrong board

Marketplace (Altcoins) is probably the most suitable board for your announcement.

in case there will be sales, I’ll use the funds for supporting Ukraine.
We have seen so many scams involving donations to Ukraine war victims and most members in the forum are aware of the trend. How are you going to convince as that you will do what you say?
2444  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: mining with a generator on: April 12, 2022, 08:55:43 PM
Would i be able to mine with a gas or gasoline generator in my basement with  no vent?
Do people rent a storage to mine? i'm located in michigan.

I don't think a generator is an option. Running it 24/7 would obviously mean you have to service it frequently, on top of catering for the gas costs. Am sure you are aware of the current gas cost. You will most like be mining at a loss, which does not make sense.
Not forgetting that you are putting your life at a risk.

Just shut down mining for now until you are able to use a better alternative when you move to another place. Use the money to just buy bitcoin as you wait.
2445  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: MxC bitcoin miner is this a hoax on: April 11, 2022, 11:59:18 PM
As soon as I saw this was advertised as a bitcoin miner  Huh something started to stink right away cause you will never ever mine any btc on an < 5W device successfully.
I think you already got it figured out. Bitcoin can be profitably mined by some powerful ASICs, not some shitty network antenna.

And the token they talk about is MXC, an ERC20 token on Ethereum network. I wonder how mining an ERC20 token works out  Roll Eyes

This post should be moved to mining (altcoins). It doesn't belong here.
2446  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum Features - Less is More on: April 11, 2022, 11:48:04 PM
What are you looking for from a software wallet every day if you are a hodler?
Shouldn't you be having your Bitcoins stashed away in a well-kept hardware wallet or some offline address you generated.

And why do the other features bug you so much if you are rarely going to see or even use them?  Wink

Also, while you decide to risk, make sure you care out due diligence first, to cut the risk of losing your money to pointless scams. There are many scams surround cryptocurrencies, so one has to have some knowledge about how to identify scams and avoid them.
Had your friend been good at research, maybe he would have not been scammed at first.
2448  Other / New forum software / Re: 2FA - authentication on: April 11, 2022, 10:59:43 PM
Hi,

I searched the forums and I was able to find an old thread, locked since some time now.
How about adding the option for 2FA when logging in? An integration with Google Authenticator or similar would greatly reduce the risk of account theft/ impersonation/ etc.

Thoughts? Ideas?

You are going to have to wait for it in the new forum software that is being polished up

Quote
Any plans for implementing some sort of a 2FA in the new forum? (this is especially important for people conducting trades over the forum)

Yes, there will be 2FA.

Admin has been reluctant to implement 2FA on this forum software, probably because it will be so time-consuming and so hard a task. You are definitely not the first to request for it

If someone wants to write a patch for it, I will seriously consider adding it. I believe that safely adding 2FA would be very time-consuming, so I'm not willing to do it myself or direct Slickage to do it.

That wouldn't eliminate the need for manual recoveries; it might even increase it as people lose their second factor. 2FA would be nice, but IMO the email notifications provide many of the same benefits, so it's not high on my to-do list.
2449  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Using a Stop loss "Good" or "Bad" on: April 11, 2022, 10:38:09 PM
If you say stop loss is bad, then you haven't traded futures using a fairly large leverage like 10x without setting a stop loss  Grin

It's a very important tool and I always use it for my trades. May people only focus on possible profits and don't look at possible loss, the risk reward ratio and back testing one's win rate if they used a certain percentage for stop loss on trades opened for a specific asset
2450  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and DCA w/ Results on: April 10, 2022, 11:59:27 PM
Results:

- Strategy 1:
No. of Buyings: 88
Amount Invested: 88x100 = $8800
Amount of BTC Own via Strategy 1: 8.079 BTC
Cost per BTC: 8800/8.079 = 1089.24
Current Profit: 8.079 * 43000 - 8800: $338,597
Not a bad strategy for low income earners who want to own Bitcoin after some years.

Out of curiosity. I used this tool to determine how much would one have worth the amount if they used the whole amount they would have invested in DCA to buy BTC at once on 1st Jan 2015

The results are interesting


2451  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Btc and reliogion on: April 10, 2022, 11:23:01 PM
AFAIK, crypto is forbidden by Muslims and in most Islamic countries, they did not accept this as a currency.
Imagine the Irony is Bitcoin was donated as financial aid to some of those Islamic institutions claiming it's forbidden  Grin

Bitcoin is basically money and store of value, if it's forbidden, then they should forbid fiat money too and all those other physical assets that store value such as gold.

Sorry to deviate from your topic but have a look around as several other people also share the same style when posting image. Can we say alt?
If you want to post about connected accounts, this is the thread >>> (Known Alts of any-one - A User Generated List Mk III (2022 Q2)) you are looking for instead of hijacking threads

If they have cheated or broken any forum rule, and you want members to give their opinions, just make a fresh topic with pinning evidence.
2453  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Forex crypto stocks commodities wich one ? on: April 09, 2022, 11:51:52 PM
Forex can't be easily manipulated since its value depends the economy of the country so technically, there are no whales there that tries to manipulate its value.
But we have seen so many cases where foreign currencies have also been manipulated, the latest being the Russian Rubble. Look up and see what happened to the Venezuelan national currency. The Government there even tried to change the denomination of the currency twice or thrice but nothing worked  Cheesy

Regardless of who manipulates them, it's still called manipulation
2454  Economy / Reputation / Re: 2 Hero + 2 Sr.member bounty cheaters on: April 09, 2022, 10:49:05 PM
Isn't this a case where all the connected alt accounts have to get permanent bans as well, since one of the accounts is already banned? Or the bans only apply once the other accounts start posting again?

lembang             Not banned
loakbtc               Banned

2455  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Flexpool data not accurate or what on: April 08, 2022, 11:56:09 PM
The mining rewards in the last 24 hours are also dependent on how many blocks Flexpool has. Sometimes they have long streaks of not mining blocks, but I suggest you contact the flexpool support for a better answer or solution - https://www.flexpool.io/support

Also move this topic to the Pools (Altcoins) board.
2456  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Real miners never give up. on: April 08, 2022, 11:27:52 PM
Like I said before, for "political" reasons, they are not doing anything to it, not only the US, all countries are in the same both. If political reasons is no more then gameover.
What "political reasons"?
Let's look at them.

You think Governments care about the feelings of their Citizens? Well, if they did, we wouldn't have Governments fucking and killing their citizens every day or even trying to ban crypto trading and transactions.

If there is a "political reason" stopping a country from destroying the Bitcoin network, then why are they trying to make several unsuccessful bans each year in the first place?

I mean look at China, an antagonist of the US and one of the biggest superpowers is not happy with Bitcoin but with all the money they have all they could do is just ban mining and trading. Nothing more.
FBI wasn't happy with Bitcoin from its infancy, but still they did nothing to stop the network, why? ... they couldn't.
2457  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Transferring Cryptocurrencies? on: April 08, 2022, 11:09:02 PM
Thanks for all the answers.  On that note, what is the cheapest and fastest way to get fiat into a broker so I can buy and sell crypto soon after transfer? 

For example, depositing fiat to Kucoin costs 3%
.  And if I transfer to Independent Reserve it takes 24 hours but is free.

Is there an exchange that'll let me transfer money instantly and cheaply?

I'm in Australia.
Use P2P platforms. Kucoin and Binance have P2P platforms that support the Australian Dollar, and you will choose from a wide variety of payment options. Since it involves fiat, it means you must have already passed KYC on Kucoin though there are better offers (friendly rates) and a lot of liquidity on Binance.
3% is too huge.
2458  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is there interested in a no KYC exchange. on: April 08, 2022, 10:28:40 PM
One day an exchange like Binance may block a user's funds and will request for KYC verification before releasing the funds. How will you go about this?

We use Binance internally as an "institution" we are fully KYC/AML verified. User won't interact directly with Binance we only use their "api' for trading and liquidity.
I am looking at it this way. Some shady users realize using your platform does not require KYC. They send in funds from suspicious sources in hope of receiving "clean" funds. Authorities that have been trailing the funds ask binance to block the funds and ask you to prove source of funds (another KYC verification)

1. How are you going to verify the source of funds from unverified users because trust me binance will freeze funds from suspicious transaction if asked by law enforcement authorities?
2. How will you refund the users, since you already claimed to them that they don't need verification to use your platform?

I Show this but you give wrong information in there, He is my Friend, His account LoyaltyShanto this already banned few days/weeks or March 31 maybe so he create a new account and he start again work from this account HHunter08.

I Show this but you give wrong information in there, He is my cousin brother, his account LoyaltyShanto this already ban few days ago so he create a new account and he start again work from this account HHunter08.

Mr HHunter08, stop it already, you are embarrassing yourself even more. If funny how your "Friend" Royal75, your "cousin brother" SultanNasirUddin and you logged in and posted in this thread using the same excuse each reply coming in a space of 3 minutes

You just made the work easier to link your accounts. You are evading ban and all your linked accounts should be banned too.
2460  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [WARNING] Beware of godex.io exchange "SCAM" 58 ETH on: April 07, 2022, 11:04:36 PM
They have an announcement thread here (although it han't been active for a long time) and an official representative on bitcointalk so try to reach out to him via PMs.
Their ann thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4693949
Godex_io

The good news is that Godex_io was active earlier on today. it's now OP's task to send him a message.

Can you still login to your account? If possible try to get as many screenshots as you can from the Account area that could shed some light on what is going on.
It's an instant exchange that does not require creating an account or logging in, but for every transaction, there is an order ID which OP should be able to produce if his claims are true.

I can say that's a lot of money. Much better if he can still log in and get the snapshots that those txs were credited to his account. He should have tested with small amount first before sending those big amounts. I don't know what the OP is thinking but honestly, I never heard of that exchange. They have good reviews in trustpilot - https://www.trustpilot.com/review/godex.io, but we don't know what percentage of them are legit ones.
I used the instant exchange before and everything went on smoothly, though I obviously didn't send in such huge amounts. They have been there for a while. However things can change pretty fast in this crypto space.
