If this is legit, could we have the source of these RDPs? It seems to me that it would be completely illogical and not profitable to run a business in which a Windows licensed RDP is sold for $2 a month. Just the Windows Server license could cost more than that. Even still, there is absolutely no way these numbers could be achieved without overselling the servers significantly to the point at which the 2.40 GHz of the Intel Xeon are no longer relevant because of how much they have to be divided amongst all the clients. Lastly, what even is that port speed? 10Mbps is worse than the connections you can find in third world countries that do not even know what fiber is. We are talking early 2000s internet speeds over here in what is supposed to be a commercial hosting platform (or at least that is what it seems marketed as). Besides, any guarantees that the servers will last for the full year of offered service? We would really be forced to take you at your word.

When this happened, fortunately for me, I had no balance left inside the card or the UQUID account for which the card belonged to. Is there, in this case, any reason I should still attempt to access my card such as potential negative balance or any issues using activating the card for future use (assuming it will be possible in the first place)? I am hoping for an official reply rather than a reply given by someone else's experience, since I would much rather have proof of official word on this.

I definitely wouldn't want to look suspicious. This might come of as a turnoff for innocent people wanting to use mixers. Undecided
Because only a criminal would want some privacy.

I get what you mean. But what I was trying to say is that non-criminals would probably stay away from mixers because of the fear of being suspicious to the feds or whatever government entity. Anyway, maybe I'm just overly paranoid and overthinking stuff  Lips sealed.

Non criminals staying away based on your position will give credence to the misconception that mixing services is meant for criminals alone but that will be wrong even if I not been a criminal but value my privacy uses mixing services even if feds comes after me, they would probably do some investigation into my activities before coming at me and if they found nothing incriminating will they still go ahead and also I have not read anywhere that its illegal to send my coins to a mixing service.

I completely agree. If mixers like ChipMixer start getting more popular and even possibly get fully integrated into wallets such as was attempted with the Electrum wallet it would completely change the meaning of using one. Rather than them being seen by the average person as trying to hide something or as possibly money laundering, it could completely remove the negative stigma held against it. Furthermore, a more widespread usage of the mixer would also mean that because of the significant volume of mixing transactions, the actual mixing is much more effective, as there are more outputs and inputs that can mask any relations that could otherwise be found between multiple addresses or individuals.

I have used DigitalOcean $50 codes before from the GitHub Education Pack as you say yours are from. The way I read your instructions, however, is that this code can be redeemed even on existing accounts. Am I correct in assuming this? If it can be redeemed on existing accounts, can it be redeemed in those accounts that have already had a promo code? All of my experience with DigitalOcean tells me that this is not the case, but ever since I left them I have not been following them for any changes to their policies.
505  Economy / Services / Re: ██ [Free] Fast BTC Transaction Accelerator For Unconfirmed Transactions on: September 02, 2017, 11:25:45 PM
Hello, please can you accelerate this for me. I will gladly tip you.

https://blockchain.info/tx/2e1fca53148718bd4d00eeebed510a9417a96a5bbd09be395c51afe776954ef2

Accelerated . Please wait for a while .



Ok, now I would really want to know how this happened. I checked this transaction and the sender literally included zero transaction fees. We are literally talking about not a single satoshi per byte of the transaction. How did you make this work? Even with the best of accelerators like ViaBTC, who would want to forfeit the significant part of their income that a transaction fee is for a miner? Every transaction without a fee that gets passed is equivalent to bitcoin that the miners are not getting. It is easy to see how it benefits us, but what is in it for them?

Seems like it has excited you . I believe its like a torn note between a bundle of notes for miners . However I am still not sure how are they accepting these transactions . Transaction accelerators may be a method of marketing by which mining pools could call and process maximum possible transactions to benefit their transaction . If I keep on getting more such zero transactions I will start charging as I do not support this.

I mean, I don't think it's really on you to decide whether those transactions should be confirmed or not. Basically, if you use accelerators to try to accelerate a transaction, it's on the miners offering the accelerators to decide. If they choose to accept the no-fee transactions that you input in them like you did above, that's on them, not you. Since you mention that you *are* using these accelerators, there's really no reason for you to stop offering this service since it seems like the miners do not actually care that their profits or gains may be lowered by it. In fact, you may even be right and the entire reason these accelerators exist is as a method of marketing by which mining pools get to be better known in order to profit in the long run. I wouldn't sweat it.
506  Economy / Services / Re: Earn 1$ USD for making prank calls to this douchebag on: September 02, 2017, 10:10:25 PM
Sounds interesting but the pay is just not worth it. It will tae 5 times more than what you are offering. Let me know if you are planning to make it somewhere around 5 bucks.

What if op increased his pay rate to 50 bucks, but the story he told about someone harassing his girlfriend turns out to be false pretext to intimidate someone? What if the person whom the call is to be made is influential enough to track back the caller and file allegations with the cops?

This is exactly what I am thinking. We are only looking at one side of the story and for all we know, OP could be completely making everything up. He could be a douchebag himself and just want a specific person he knows (or a stranger, really) to get suffocated with spam calls. I'm not saying this is absolutely the case, but there really is no evidence of what the real situation is for either case. I advise that no one be a part of this and this thread be ignored. Even the low reward is not worth it for the amount of time spent.

I don't know if your servers are good to run a full node for Bitcoin or do I need something else? so far every VPS I tested they were all failure and never gave me what I wanted.

Hi there,

By run a full node do you mean a node to run mining on it?

Thanks

I think he means an actual node, not to run a mining program. A node is what receives and relays transactions to the miners, within the bitcoin network.

Diagran, anyone can run a full node, especially on these VPSes. I'm not sure why you couldn't on other VPSes. Please PM me and I can help you set it up. It's really easy to do on a windows or linux VPS.

I am sure he asks because of the fact that running full nodes means extreme peering with many other computers at once for a long period of time as well as quite a bit of storage consumption. In fact, I don't see him running a full Bitcoin or Ethereum node just because of the storage size required. The peering could also be mixed up with torrenting activity which could be illegal-- this has happened to me with some hosting providers before. I do not know how advanced your monitoring systems are, so I can't be sure of any of this, but I thought I would bring it up.

I doubt anyone sells that key for 15$, but there is couple sellers selling PUBG as gift (I am one of them).

Price is around 25$, like everyone else has. So drop PM if you're interested.

Say what you want. I did not think it was legit either until he sent me a key and let me keep it for a couple of weeks. I did not pay until much after as we had agreed and it all ended up working fine. I still own and play the game regularly and nothing bad has happened. I do not know what the source of the key is, to be sure, but if it weren't legitimate then I doubt I would still have the game in my Steam library. Regardless, for this game I would be fine with paying the entire $30. It truly is that fun.
510  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Accounting Software on: September 01, 2017, 01:37:27 AM
I do not see how holding bitcoin could be considered holding anything different than shares of stock or a foreign currency depending on how you look at it. Then again, I only know the basics of accounting and accounting software, but shouldn't there be an option to add miscellaneous assets to your unified assets list and then list it with its proper value either according to fair market value or historical cost value? It would in the end depend on what guidelines you are sticking to when it comes to changing capital assets, but it should be fine as long as your are consistent with how you are recording your bitcoin transactions and holdings (if any).
511  Economy / Services / Re: 30% OFF! HostMyGuild.com! Cutting-Edge Hosting Solutions! Web, Wordpress and VPS on: September 01, 2017, 12:54:54 AM
For the plans that you show above for the cPanel web hosting, is the SSD space shared between the email accounts and the databases? I ask because I have seen other web hosting providers offer their SSD space only for upload of website data such as web pages and scripts and then have databases and email on separate storage which may not be necessarily SSD and can therefore be much slower. Also, what technologies and server side languages do you allow? Is PHP5/7 enabled and is there a limit on cron jobs, etc. that could come up at some point during service? Thanks.

Everything is on SSD. I don't see what would be the point running the database on a non-SSD configuration. I have never seen that a provider would do that. Maybe I was just lucky with providers before.

The technologies depend on which one of our packages you buy. I would say the main difference is currently that our normal web-hosting doesn't use LiteSpeed while our WordPress hosting does. Aside from that, shared hosting is pretty standardized technology-wise.
I don't believe we have a limit on cron jobs, however, we don't allow excessive resource use. (But that would have to be an abusive, extreme case)

PHP 5 and 7 (PHP 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 or 7) is enabled on our WordPress hosting packages. PHP 5 is enabled on our normal web-hosting packages.

Is there any particular reason why PHP 7 is not enabled on your lower tier web hosting packages? It is not like it would be more demanding to run than PHP 5 unless there are features in it that I am not aware of (which could be the case). The same goes for LiteSpeed: I have not used it myself but isn't it supposed to be faster than Apache alone? I do not plan to run any intensive resources at all, so the cron jobs would most certainly not be any kind of problem, as they are simply small update scripts that I need to run on a schedule. The comment on the SSD was just for clarification. You don't want to know what kind of providers you can find around these forums that try to undersell or mislead. Glad to know you are not one of those.
512  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Overwatch.org - domain name for sale! on: September 01, 2017, 12:51:09 AM
OP PMd me about his concerns regarding my comment, so I wish to clarify what I said quoted below.

Is there any proof of you actually owning this domain? I believe it is fair to ask since Overwatch (the game) has become so popular and the chances of a random bitcoiner squatting the domain are really low. In fact, I would not be surprised if you are trying to make a quick buck. Are you the individual reachable at zurcnet@gmail.com, as stated in the website to which overwatch.org leads? If so, is your price actually $10K? There is always a chance that a big player such as Blizzard attempts to legally subdue the domain name for using their trademark, but I don't claim to be a lawyer so I do not know the specifics. Having Overwatch in the domain could mean a legal liability, however.

All I am trying to say here is that there is no way to know for sure that OP here is the same person reachable at the email specified on the landing page of the domain being sold. He claims that he is, which is believable, but in any case it should still be better to contact directly to his email just in the off chance that he is not. About my legal allegations, which the OP also expressed concern at in the PM, I never claimed to be a lawyer. I have simply seen similar cases where domain names get disputed end up going in the favor of the corporation owning the trademark. I do not know any specifics and I am not interested in buying this domain whatsoever (at least at this price). The information I provided was solely as a word of caution for any potential buyer of the domain. I do not have any evidence pointing to this being either legit or a scam, and have no more information regarding the domain or OP than the average reader. I am simply bringing up possible concerns buyers may have.

How about email me from all of them and find that out instead of continuing to make assumptions? I know a lot of scams go on here, so it's understanding that people are paranoid. But I am willing to prove it in any way possible, that I own the domain. Do you want to meet with me in person? See it in my account? Want to call Godaddy and ask them if I am the legal owner? We can call them on three way.

Please stop saying you are not a lawyer, than making legal insinuations about things you do not understand. This domain was regged 6 years before overwatch was even a game. It's a generic term. If blizzard wants to try to UDRP (thats the name of the process) the domain from me, I invite them to try. Their presumed attempt at reverse hijacking a generic term domain name they have no legal right to will never work. I have never once infringed upon their trademark, nor do I have any intentions of doing so. But lets say I did want to use it based on this game you mention, google "fair Use"...

Ok, well, you seem to have ignored all I said. Just like anyone else I said I am not a lawyer but I do know a few facts about domains. That's up to the buyer to research, not me. If I cared about the domain I would research about this kind of things, but I don't. I only care about helping prevent scams. Instead of looking at me as the enemy you should be looking at me as someone who is trying to protect other community members as, like you said, scams are quite common on these forums. If there is the slightest possibility that anything bad happens to the buyer, I *will* bring it up. I also don't see how me saying that the email on the site should be contacted could even remotely be a bad thing for you since you are selling the domain. I am literally helping you there and in your last post you even said that you preferred to be contacted through there. You are just starting up drama out of nowhere.

Anyone? It's for a gift... any help?
Thank you
bitbollo

If it helps any, there are now multiple people on the Digital Goods section of the forum selling PUBG keys. Given, none of these are as cheap as the seller that I had previously linked, but he does take a significant amount of time to respond (or at least it did to those now looking for him). I also cannot really vouch for anyone else selling those keys since I would effectively be wasting a key if one of them were to give it to me. You would either have to come to an agreement such as delayed escrow with them or make them go first. I would not trust any of those who do not have much trust to hold up their side of the deal.

Good luck!
514  Economy / Services / Re: ██ [Free] Fast BTC Transaction Accelerator For Unconfirmed Transactions on: August 31, 2017, 06:13:51 AM
I assume by the fact that you have not mentioned how this is done that you don't really want to share your method, correct? I honestly see no way to accelerate a transaction other than having ties with one of the blockchain miners that decide which transactions go into blocks, akin to what the ViaBTC accelerator does. Do you do something like this or do you use a combination of all other accelerators out there to do this? I am honestly just asking out of curiosity, since I do not see anyone doing this for profit considering that the entire reason this is needed is because of people being greedy and not paying much for transaction fees in the first place.

some as, spectrocoin....

I am still looking for one like this that does not require ID verification (real information is fine) but can be used like any other non-Bitcoin card and does not have any ridiculous fees. I was thinking Shift but if they are related to Coinbase I am not sure I would trust them too much with my money. I had been using UQUID but ever since the recent events I have decided that I need to find an alternative. Advcash was fine until they stopped working inside the U.S. It seems like regulation really is taking a toll on this business in the States.
516  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Looking for a copy of Pubg on: August 30, 2017, 03:43:42 AM
There are a couple of sellers that I have been able to find around the forums that sell PUBG at a discounted price for BTC.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1934798.msg19213919#msg19213919

I have personally bought from this individual and my copy of Battlegrounds is still working perfectly. As I mentioned in the thread, I have no idea of where the seller gets the keys from to sell them at such a discounted price, but so far, everything has been working perfectly fine.

That's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks a ton! I won't even have to wait for my sig to pay me at that price. How long have you had your key? I really don't care where he gets them from if he's got them that cheap.. Lol.

I've sent him a pm and haven't heard anything from him yet. If he doesn't respond before tonight, i'm going to need an alternative.

I've searched for everyone that's selling the game on here they're all really scammy or haven't been online at all and it's like 4 am their time. I've got about 2 hours left then i'm going to have to pay full price for it if anyone's trying to sell.

I have had my key for around 3 months without a problem. However, if you are looking to get the key within 2 hours, you are most likely out of luck. The guy that I quoted above did take a while to contact after he initially sold me the game. He is certainly not one of the most active member in the forums. I would be surprised if anyone managed to get you a key in the amount of time, honestly, so you should be expecting to pay full price at that point. Regardless, it's a great game and definitely worth the $30.
517  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer - mixing reinvented on: August 30, 2017, 03:37:29 AM
just curious, am i receiving someone else dirty coins after the mixing?

You are not, the addresses you receive from are funded once and once only I believe and when you ask for the withdrawal they are sent to you, the addresses are pre-funded so I doubt you are getting anyone else bitcoins.
He's asking if the coins he receives could have been used before by someone who has more to hide than himself. The answer is of course yes. Bitcoins are not newly created by ChipMixer, and your Bitcoins are not destroyed by ChipMixer after receiving them. But that's no different than when you withdraw cash from an ATM, or even receive money on your bank: money transfers hands a lot, and whoever owned it before you has nothing to do with you anymore.

Example: Every British bank note is contaminated by cocaine within weeks of entering circulation

But with ChipMixer there's more. You can also get the mixer receipt that you are offered when you mix your coins which effectively proves that the coins that you are using were the ones you got from a mixer, practically proving there is no real link (or very improbably at least) between the chips that you got and any previous activity related to those chips. Of course, this shouldn't be necessary, but in the case that you for whatever reason get suspicion by anyone you don't want to be suspected by, having the receipt can help prove you are in no way related to any kind of illegal activity.

Oh well, just keep popping your money in until they lose it or it's stolen from them good luck sheeple. Maybe try googling blockchain.info scam or blockchain.info algorithm etc. It's a good lesson.

Sorry, but I don't quite get it. As someone who has been using their service for quite long, it was unsettling to hear that people might have been having trouble with it. However, as you said, I google "blockchain.info scam" and came up with absolutely nothing about it. I also googled for "blockchain.info algorithm" and once more nothing out of the ordinary was present. I would like to know what exactly you are referring to in case you are right, but I have not seen anything concrete about it.

I see in your website that for the smallest web hosting plan you must buy at least a year contract at once. Is it possible to get only one month of it to see how it fits my needs? Also, I do not see any explicit limits on sub-domains. Are sub-domains included under the general "domains" limit or is it unlimited/has a limit that is not shown? Lastly, is the promo code BITCOINTALK valid for only VPSs or also for shared web hosting? Thanks for your time.
