641  Other / Meta / Re: (Any Guesses?) Are there many real (unpaid) people still posting here at BCT? on: December 06, 2023, 08:35:13 AM
Weird question. If you are offered to be on the forum and communicate, and in addition, they give you the privilege of giving you some bonuses for participating here, will you refuse? Just because people aren't involved in subscription companies doesn't mean they're more passionate about Bitcoin than everyone else. The forum welcomes freedom. To participate in the subscription, you need to be on the forum regularly, but some people, like you, OP, may not be here very often.
But what's wrong with those who wear a signature? Are you ready to mark everyone as profit-seekers and nothing more? I doubt that if you see a hundred-dollar bill on the road, you will step over it and move on.
I think you understand what I'm writing about.
642  Other / Meta / Re: I have no more merit left to give! on: December 06, 2023, 08:20:37 AM
Your post, OP, brought a sincere smile to my face. I also don’t like accumulating merit, but I also don’t think that you need to rummage through posts to give them to someone. People receiving merit here on the forum are really happy about each one; this is in some way a motivation for further running.
But you, OP, registered a day before me, and this is quite a long time. I won’t tell you a secret, but I’m sure you can guess where you can find new merits Grin. It is not at all necessary to show us your stock.
Go for it, buddy.

I have long seen offers on other forums to sell “dirt,” that is, funds obtained in not entirely honest ways. I am sure that a lot of time has been spent investigating Sinbad, and now it is completely inappropriate to talk about hiding something. Investigative authorities are always interested in the "head," and they probably know who and where could be guilty of what, excluding simple advertising of mixers. The users advertising this, to sane people, look like people just making money. Moreover, in terms of the volume of the mixer itself, the earnings look meager. Considering that the one who publicly writes that he is selling “dirt” has been alive and well for many years, and they simply do not pay attention to him, will anyone delve into the posts of people simply communicating on the forum, sometimes on completely distant topics from mixers?
If this is really so important and is a crime, then very soon the world will turn into the novel “1984” by George Orwell.
644  Other / Meta / Re: Can a merit source re-start Ratimov merit threads. on: December 05, 2023, 07:18:32 AM
I'm not quite sure if that is necessary as there are many threads as similar as the one ratimov had. For example we have hugeblack, LoyceV, fillippone who have their own thread for merit distribution. Of course, it is encouraged to to merit, deserving posts and everyone has different way of meriting. Some prefer it as posted as a thread, some prefer it as manually reading every comment. Can't judge it really. Even before ratimov became a merit source, other sources distributed merits and after the incident of ratimov, merits are still being distributed. So I don't see any problem here. Having one thread deletes doesn't effect the forum much. Don't you think so? Again new ideas and thoughts are always encouraged.

You are right; if a post deserves an award, it will be noticed. But lately, the topics where posts are sent for verification by merit sources resemble a school or university, where students submit their posts, like tests or even a thesis.

Aren't we on a forum just to discuss Bitcoin? We force merit sources to read undervalued posts while other users pass by them. If the post is good in itself, then everyone will see it. Why direct someone's eyes there?

It doesn't seem entirely sincere. The forum is designed for simple communication; however, we want every word to have a price.
Or else, if users do not rate posts, does that mean no one reads anything?

Sometimes you see a user whose merits come only from the source of merit. It turns out that it is only good for one person.
And still, we will be disingenuous when we say that people gathered on the forum only out of great love for crypto and not for the sake of ranks.

Yes, most probably I got infected using a crack version Driver updater. Since I had to fresh install everything.


Reinstalling Windows with a crack You don't have to continue any further. Any crack will contain something bad. Or do you think that all hacked Windows products are created by good people who save you money?
Besides, if hacked games are so important to you, you shouldn’t have created this topic at all and asked questions about what’s wrong with you. I think the answer is obvious to everyone.
I know many gamers who turn a blind eye to viruses because there is nothing they think is important on their devices. But if the computer has more power, the same viruses (RAT) can easily be turned into a server, which provides the ability to control it from the outside. And very often, hacked games contain it. And what will be done by another person from your IP will already depend on him, but you will be responsible.


(I made a lot of quotes to multiple users. Is it ok though to quote this much? Just a curious question  Smiley)



You did everything right.

Let's take the idea of creating an altcoin that would compete with today's coins; let's not even talk about Bitcoin. Why are there no new interesting projects? Developers don't have money? Everything that appears does not bring anything new with it and eventually turns into dust. Why? You don’t have the knowledge that is necessary to develop your ideas. Therefore, I think that to realize your idea, in addition to money, it is important to have the necessary level of knowledge so that the business you want to start can compete with existing brands. Otherwise, all your money and your fantasies will run out very quickly.
647  Economy / Economics / Re: Flash Mob Theft -> closure of brick and mortar stores -it's economic impact? on: December 03, 2023, 05:56:20 AM
As far as I know, there are no strict penalties for such actions in the USA. In addition, this is mainly done by teenagers, who they also believe cannot be punished much. If there were a strict punishment for the theft of goods even worth five to ten dollars and everything was publicly reported, many would probably think about whether it is necessary to destroy and break everything or whether freedom is more valuable.

You are in vain hoping for Windows Defender, or rather, you are in vain hoping for Windows. To keep Windows crystal clean, you need to disconnect it from the network. If you start wondering how many holes users regularly open due to using this system, you will be very disappointed. Start learning Linux systems, and divide your Internet surfing into entertainment, Photoshop hobbies, and finances.
As for the addresses to which they wanted to redirect you, I see a slightly different amount in this wallet. But yes, there are complaints that the clipper was redirected to this address.

649  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The comfort and risk at the top - After doing things the right way why deviate on: December 02, 2023, 10:49:32 AM
I disagree. People who have been through thick and thin—that is, have been on the forum for a long time—value their efforts and will be very careful about what they write about. Yes, there are some, but they also make random mistakes, which cannot be said about beginners who do not understand the entire structure of the forum.
Newbies always play by luck, thinking that if they copy something from other sources, they will not be detected, since it is easy to get lost in a large forum. However, they don't understand the things that experienced users usually notice. Yesterday, a person still presented himself as a newbie, but today he creates posts indicating that the person has a high level of knowledge. Thus, newcomers are subjected to a thorough check of their posts, which, as usual, always reveals deception.
But if you are the OP, claiming that you see many ranks who are relaxed and do not care that they can be detected, one thing can be said: everything takes time, and they will be caught too. It’s very disappointing to lose an account that has become big and is banned for the mistakes of youth. But everyone is the arbiter of their destiny.
650  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trust wallet KYC verification Phishing mail. Beware! on: December 02, 2023, 10:26:52 AM
I always get any fake email from scammer with lots of tricks to try scam.
This is my small tips to check phising email.
- Check email address sender first (most scammer use free emails)
- If you don't know official email from any project, you can check in their social media and website.


I would be worried if I received such letters very often, as you write. This suggests that your mail will eventually be attacked, and we cannot predict the actions of social engineering. Don't feel alone if you don't receive emails; on the contrary, this is an indicator that hackers are not interested in you since you keep your emails away from their eyes.
651  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think that this is aperfect analogy of how gambling addiction starts? on: December 01, 2023, 02:33:58 PM
Gambling addiction always depends on psychological factors. There may be several of them, ranging from the inability to manage money to the inability to regulate your excitement and stop in time, ending with a feeling of loneliness and weak self-esteem. When a person wins, he feels significant, and an erroneous judgment is given about the importance of material well-being above all human principles. Some statistics say that less than 5 percent of gambling addicts are aware of the level of risk of their condition, and also that the percentage of recovered gambling addicts is very small since the treatment of this addiction is a long process that only a few agree to.
652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Its A Gambling Joke But Reflects Bad Things About Gambling on: December 01, 2023, 02:12:12 PM
It is not for nothing that it is believed that jokes always contain our salt of life. And, sadly, those involved in games think little about the problems they may face if they lose. There is also an expression about gamblers that goes: “Many people know what they will do if they win a big sum, but they don’t know what to do if they don’t win.” But if you soberly assess your capabilities, then people who risk their money every day could invest in Bitcoin and get quite a lot more advantages than the risk of walking on the edge of the game.
653  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best way to store your seed phrase? on: December 01, 2023, 01:23:44 PM
After reading all the answers and topics that suggest ways to store seed phrases, you can’t help but be surprised by human imagination. The thought comes that those who write about incredible and quite complex methods are either very passionate people about inventing, or maybe they are so rich that the search for unique solutions is indeed fair.
Nevertheless, everything needs to be considered based on a person’s activities, his social circle, and so on. If you are a fairly public person, then storing your seed phrase, of course, requires great care. But if you are an ordinary person who does not disseminate information about yourself, then a phrase engraved on steel or even several paper archives (of course, taking into account the possibility of a fire) will be the most natural and logical choice.
654  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin story on: December 01, 2023, 12:32:10 PM
As a parent, I can say that science that involves money becomes very interesting to children very quickly. They understand very well that to get something, you need money, and the more, the better. But this interest in money scares me. Children begin to evaluate every action at some cost, sometimes not realizing that some actions can be done just like that. I see, for example, similar decisions: “I will do something for you, and in return, you will pay me.” Therefore, I will not rush to interest children in Bitcoin. I believe that before starting to love money, children must learn to understand human values so as not to turn their minds into machines that think only about profit.
655  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Bitcoin investment is the key to success" on: December 01, 2023, 11:09:16 AM
Any investment has a specific purpose. Someone dreams of buying a house and is waiting for the right price, while someone needs a laptop, and for this, they sell their Bitcoins. It would be a mistake if you, OP, spent money from the profit on useless things, but you bought an item that can serve as an assistant for you to earn money in the future. I did the same, but in my history, this is already the second laptop and several household appliances. Why else should we invest if not to provide ourselves with what we need? I often repeat that life is given once, and waiting for a successful tomorrow can be very difficult if we do not take care of today.
656  Economy / Economics / Re: Black Friday deals and your plan to hold bitcoins. on: December 01, 2023, 10:40:09 AM
The expression about buying those goods that we need, and not those that we want, is not entirely clear. It sounds like the same thing to me. I love Black Friday because it allows me to get the items I need at a great price.
I'm not strict about tomorrow. We can afford the purchases we can make without leaving ourselves with empty pockets. So I don't think strictly limiting your needs should limit your investment in Bitcoin. If I want something, I'll buy it. When tomorrow comes, he will tell me how to live in it.
657  Economy / Economics / Re: Growth mindset versus fixed mindset on: November 30, 2023, 11:40:01 AM
Most people are lazy. Having achieved some results and received a comfortable (in their opinion) lifestyle, they do not like to leave their comfort zone. This is where we see claims that everything was better before, and the fact that everything is new is well forgotten old.
But the other half of people, realizing that nothing can stand still and requires regular updating, update both themselves and their knowledge. Therefore, we see people whom we call skeptics, those who look very tired and do not want to start something new, and those whom we call optimists, constantly creating something new and passionately wanting to change both their lives and the lives of others for the better.
And yes, it is very difficult to pull a person who is confident in himself and knows everything out of his swamp.
658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Understanding and setting up the right security measures. on: November 30, 2023, 11:16:46 AM
You can lose all your bitcoins in one moment if you are not careful when transacting with them. Checking the wallet number at the moment when you are going to send funds somewhere, as well as the correct commission, requires care and accuracy. Otherwise, no matter how you protect your investments, one moment of carelessness can work against you and your investments.
659  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A lesson from other people's mistake can go a long way on: November 30, 2023, 10:42:24 AM
Our mistakes always make us stronger. And learning from our mistakes is sometimes very expensive, but after that, we begin to walk very carefully. In every person's life, there have been cases when we were very self-confident and did not listen to others who had previously walked this path. It may even be useful to feel it for yourself and blame yourself for being careless earlier. The scary thing is that people do not learn from their mistakes, and life will teach as many lessons as necessary to learn from these mistakes.

10 Don't save your email and password to online or computer, always try to put and save it with a hard-copy /Diary

11 Don't login all account with one device or computer use minimum 2 device if you have huge btc in online wallet or exchange site.
[/b]

What does it mean that I shouldn't keep my email address on my device? Why? What could this mean for me? Moreover, I deliberately make some addresses public so that clients can contact me. Why is my address so dangerous?
And the second question: Why do I need to use several devices—as you specified, at least two? I prefer to limit my travels to one device, fully understanding the full level of responsibility for my actions. But still, should I multiply my devices in order to be logged in everywhere? Do you understand what you are offering? Smiley
