1  Other / Off-topic / Client-side end-to-end encrypted file upload website on: June 08, 2020, 06:26:43 PM
https://filen.io/

The main reason why I created this is that I found no file-sharing platform that offers fully end-to-end encrypted file sharing without having to sacrifice your privacy. Most of them have a really low limit, tons of ads, trackers or need your email address to send you the uploaded file's link. Filen was born.

How does it work?

When you upload a file to Filen's cloud storage, you actually don't upload a file, you upload chunks of encrypted text. Before you initiate an upload, your browser chunks your file into 1 MB pieces, encrypts them using AES encryption and then sends the encrypted string to our servers. That way the actual file never leaves your computer. When downloading a file your browser requests all chunks of the file from Filen's servers, decrypts them using the decryption key and then rebuilds the whole file again. This way you can be sure that your file is always secure and not readable by anyone unless they have the decryption key. Not even Filen knows what you have uploaded.

You can use Filen completely anonymous, but if you want to manage your uploads (history, delete, get links again etc.) you can create an account.

I respect user privacy and don't use Google Analytics or any other trackers.

Filen will only work with JavaScript enabled (obviously) and on the latest Browsers including Chrome, Firefox and Opera (Safari not tested). Expect a few bugs here and there since this is a public beta. I will constantly update the site.

If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to post them here! Have a nice day Smiley

I think it would be hard to earn a Bitcoin from creating memes since most of the people will just enjoy it and won't bother sending you a tip for it wherein they can enjoy it without sending any money or tips.
Perhaps having an option to allow users to offer some of their photos in a subscription-based style might do the trick.

Yes, I am actually working on something similar to OnlyFans/Patreon where you first have to unlock content to see it. I will update the thread once it's ready.

As long as posts comply with the rules it's fine.
You might want to create a page with the set of rules first Wink

Any feedback is greatly appreciated and I will try to integrate any wanted feature.
Suggestions:

  • It would be nice to have a warning for NSFW section.
  • Increase its loading speed.
  • A report button.

I like how it allows us to up/downvote each tag separately...
- Has potential.

The rules are on the upload page which you can see when logged in, I might create a seperate page for that soon where you don't need to be logged in.

You have to manually click on the NSFW filter which even says that it's NSFW, I guess thats warning enough..? Not sure though.

I'm actually creating a report function for posts and comments right now!

Thanks for your feedback.

People can only tip, no guarantee of earnings really. I'm however entertained reading and creating memes too.

I'd like to ask about the part of the movie that were turned gif, would this be possible to be uploaded?  I have once tried creating such which is from a series in AMC, yes its from them. But would Imgord accept it?

I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly, do you mean uploading a movie which you converted to a gif? If the content is original (aka. you modified it so it has no copyright anymore) it is allowed. Otherwise it will be removed. Uploading a whole movie is generally not accepted though.

What's your take on recycled content a.k.a stolen memes? Although I'm seeing that majority of your memes are original content I'm already seeing some from social media pages as well as in 9gag so is this allowable in your site and are they getting paid for stolen content as well? Overall the site looks good but it lacks categories and some memes can be offensive for some people (like this one) so you need to have some kind of categories and labels where people can easily filter what content they want to see.

P.S.
The content on your NSFW section cannot be considered as memes, they are just really a NSFW image sharing section for horny guys, you should also screen/filter that out.

First of all thanks for your reply!

Categories are called "subs" on Imgord. People can tag their posts with subs so you as a reader can filter for specific content.
Tips are sent by people - and would you tip someone for reposting a stolen meme? I guess not. Genereally people can tip for whatever reason, but I think majority of people will tip for original content (as it should be).
Reposting images/videos from other platforms is allowed (you should link the source in the comment section though).
Same goes for the NSFW section, posts there can also be original content and people like to tip OC NSFW content. As long as posts comply with the rules it's fine. Otherwise those posts will instantly get removed and the account will be banned.

P.S.: Posts in the SFW section don't necessarily need to be memes, they can also be OC images, videos, updates or anything else you can imagine. If the community likes it you will get upvotes, if they don't u'll get downvotes.

I'm impressed. Your figures highlight just how much fake volume there is on CMC - something I've been telling peeps for years now - well done!

I'm still not sure about some of those exchanges figures though.... but good work nonetheless.

I will tweak the algo in the future - mainly for Huobi and HitBTC, but thanks for your feedback!

One step would also be to stop using CMC in general. They just list everything they see, sell ad spots to ponzi schemes and don't really filter fake volume. I'm actually developing a "better CMC" and you can give it a shot if you want: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5194756 (this is the "ANN" thread I made, more information is given there).

Great news! Google Play just approved the official App for MarketCap.cc. You can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cc.marketcap.app
10  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: November 27, 2019, 03:56:20 PM
this is great, it's funny how some exchanges report high volume.
But you still have only 15 exchanges in your algorithm which again does not provide accurate information.
Any idea of how to add more exchanges, although small, they still have a certain amount of trading

The Data on the site is pretty much the most accurate you will get out there. We calculate Liquidity between real established markets with real volume. Exchanges on the list are picked for a reason. We don't inflate our stats with no name exchanges nobody ever heard of which are reporting billions of volume per day. Our list of exchanges is based on the BTI report to the US SEC. We might include new exchanges in the future tho.

A familiar look and feel. Congrats on executing your idea. That's what counts.

I think another member suggested that this would absolutely destroy your I/O if you were to take into concern your site blowing up. I can see niche/featured functions like this in something more private.

Always down to help. Good luck!

Thanks for your feedback.

Yes, I already have the infrastructure ready for when there is big traffic coming, don't worry.

"Update teaser": I am currently working on a full port of the website to an App. The App will be available for Android & iOS, starting with an Android Beta release first. Here is a screenshot of the work in progress:

13  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: November 17, 2019, 09:37:58 PM
Update: You can now see Liqudity of every market, exchange etc. instead of asset-based liqudity only. Ranking for Liquidity also added.
14  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: November 06, 2019, 08:33:46 AM
Update: The RESTful & Socket.io APIs are now fully documented (https://marketcap.cc/api). Both are completely for free and have no limits, because data should be free Smiley If you need a specific RESTful endpoint for your project don't hesitate to contact me, I'll try my best to include it into the API.
15  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: October 29, 2019, 07:44:54 PM
Semi-huge update: You can now see liquidity of every asset (collected in realtime from all exchanges' orderbooks), sort tables by clicking their headers and see high volume transactions on selected blockchains (whale alert).
Order book viewing will be enabled soon (for every market).
16  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: October 27, 2019, 03:06:03 PM
It's a good attempt by a smaller company/single person to combat washed trading/market making/market manipulation, whatever new word they are using to call fake trade volumes - It seems like you are making a valid attempt to not counted the millions in faked volume, and even though I'm sure there will be some exchanges that can slip through, I congratulate you on your effort!

I do enjoy the design aspects of your listing site as well. Although I do get the feeling that text is hard to read, especially in dark mode and when you click a coin - the 4 boxes that are all black (black text, black background, etc) is really distracting and I don't enjoy it at all, maybe try it with white text?

Good luck mate, as long as this keeps being updated you'll have a banger on your side!

Some design elements are still temporary and will change once I found a more fitting attempt! I will also start developing a "day mode" with a white theme soon. Thanks a lot for your feedback.
17  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: October 27, 2019, 03:27:08 AM
so you are excluding the "obvious" fake volume not fake volume in general. the exchanges can still continue producing fake volume and if someday your website (or the method in general) became popular they can easily mask it.
We can't really make exchanges to stop faking volumes anyway, it will be always happening and I don't think this project is aiming to stop it directly. All I get from OP is to remove those fake volumes from price tracker site and creating a place where people can find a more genuine prices.

Although it might only obvious fake volumem at start and volume fakers won't stop, at least OP has a big efforts to avoid tracking fake volumes and of course the site and algo will improve if OP really commit to develop this.

Thanks for your feedback and yes, I am comitted to continue the development. I am adding new features everyday, just check it out once in a while (or maybe use it full time).

https://coinmarketcap.com



https://marketcap.cc

The difference is very big, your site is excellent. I have a suggestion:

can you add the ann threads of the coins? something like that:



Thanks for your feedback and yes, more information like website, block explorer, ANN thread etc. for coins will be added in the next update.
19  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crypto prices, trades & volume in realtime excluding fake volume on: October 23, 2019, 10:07:31 PM
The idea of being able to "see" true volume of different coins is very valuable. Looking at the website i real like the UI, it's clean, easy to navigate, and responsive. Haven't tried out the API so cannot speak to that.

The fundamental core of this project is the accuracy of the algorithm used for filtering out wash trade, of which I still have no clue on how it is done after reading you article (https://medium.com/@Dwynr/building-a-website-that-shows-real-prices-and-trading-volumes-of-cryptocurrencies-aa4d9a2f4772). If the algorithm are just detecting certain trading patterns, then I don't see how it can be used to detect wash trade with sufficient accuracy since exchange might have or come up with sophisticated wash trading patterns.

That being said, I do believe idea is still valuable even if the algorithm only filters out a majority of the fake volumes rather than 100%.

Great job OP.

The RESTful API will be documented in the coming days, the WebSocket API already is. The algorithm cannot truly filter out 100% of all fake volume, but I'll try to improve it over time. As you mentioned, it currently only looks for pre-determined patterns and filters them out. The next version of the algo will be self learning, which will cover almost all patterns an exchange might use (I hope, it's just a theory for now Tongue).
Thanks for your feedback!

so you are excluding the "obvious" fake volume not fake volume in general. the exchanges can still continue producing fake volume and if someday your website (or the method in general) became popular they can easily mask it.

in addition to that you are putting too much efford and focus in something that doesn't really matter for sites such as yours that list coins. you are still making the same mistake as coinmarketcap.com and rank coins based on their market capitalization which is a completely meaningless and wrong approach.
not to mention that your site lacks the option to list prices against bitcoin whcih in my opinion is the only thing that matters, you only have USD option.

Ranking based on Liquid Market Cap will come in the next update. I will also include pricing against Bitcoin. I am taking any suggestions and will try to make the site better everyday. Not worth talking the site down since it's only been online for roughly a week now.
