The right way to do it is to find an outsourcing business willing to hire you and do it legally.
The outsourcing business wouldn't take 10% but 65-80% for themselves of whatever they'd bill. OP's better off finding for companies willing to hire him as an overseas contractor, or setting up his own company and using it to find himself work from foreign clients. Most of these large corporations he thinks about working for are unlikely to hire him if he doesn't have rare enough skills. edit: typo |

As observed Europe and Asian Languages are dominating the local board section (it's good because it helps natives feel at home in the forum and discuss freely) but it makes me wonder what is happening to our brothers and Sisters in Africa. It's one of the continents known to have hundreds of local languages yet i barely know anyone in this forum who is from there. Could they have just abandoned using their local languages in the forum for English, French, German?
Or are they not just interest in discussing crypto?
English and French are the lingua franca of many African countries, they're here, usually posting in English. Sometimes you can recognize them by their signature if they want to announce themselves. |

I have never considered buying "things" with your bitcoins on Black Friday as a good choice, but I did change my mind today. Previously I thought
it was a bad idea, because you might buy something for say 0.006453 ($50) today and a month after that the value of those coins might double or
triple and you would regret paying for those goods and services with bitcoins.
I think I'd regret it more if I didn't spend at least a little bit before a large decrease in price. Unfortunately, most of the things I wanted to buy were too niche or inconvenient to buy with Bitcoin so I had to settle for fiat. |

Could you specify in the title or further in the OP that you only have .com gift cards/balance on hand? You're arousing unnecessary appetite in people from other regions  EDIT: got a message that UK amazon is doable |

The most notable refusals for redemptions have been Gemini and Paxos and in both cases it seems it was at least partly to - “maximize their status on CoinMarketCap.” That's even worse than I thought, it doesn't show them in a good light and proves they're no better than their competitor Tether with its untrustworthiness. OP should include the info. |

The only reputable blockchain analysis firm i know is https://chainanalysis.com - but i don't think they offer such services for individuals, or at least, they don't anymore. You could contact them and see if they're willing to help you out somehow. (175 BTC) is a large amount. There are a lot more (especially if you include invidividual persons taking such work like the guy behind wizsec), chainalysis just gets mentioned the most in the press. |

How come you marked Japanese section as "Active" , while they have very little activity in last year?
Croatian, Polish, Greek, Dutch and even Romanian have been more active than Japanese in 2019 and they are marked as "less active". Even Korean, that is marked as "inactive" has been more active lately than Japanese section.
He took average posts per day made in each section since their creation (and without accounting for previously existing language threads which were later moved to the newly created sections, but that is a minor detail) to sort the local boards. |

Great point, there could be other ways to verify (without doxing). A huge downside would be that 'verified' Bitcointalk account can be sold/used in scam attempts ( making me reconsider my suggestion).
Yes, a hacked account with a 'verified' badge could be used to swindle more people and with greater ease than normally even if it got neg-repped and flagged. |

I'm not saying those account should dox themselves or whatever. There are plenty of official accounts on Bitcointalk (from exchanges, physical bitcoin creators, artist, coin developers etc.). Verifying could be as easy as sending a special tweet (or DM) from their official Twitter account. It might even help combat scammers since there have been plenty DMs sent by imposter accounts.
How's Twitter accounts' security wrt to social engineering attacks? In case of twitter even their CEO has had his account hacked. Plenty of users here on bitcointalk lose access to their accounts, but that's usually (always?) the result of their poor security practices. |

I always find it strange that these hacks occur when the Bitcoin price is going down. I should think hackers would rather hack an exchange when the Bitcoin price is high, to maximize their profits.  My conspiracy theory is that these hacks are perfectly orchestrated to put further downward pressure on the Bitcoin price, when the price are already under pressure and that these hacks are possibly government sanctioned hacks. <Russia / China etc.> The timing of these hacks cannot be a coincidence.  Looks like confirmation bias / tinfoilhattery to me I'd be more inclined to believe that an exchange could pretend a hack occurred to make money from shorting BTC/alts. |

The poorer countries aren't going to be adopting bitcoin for day-to-day transactions, even if the people therein are unbanked--I don't even think it would be a good thing for them to do so, either. Bitcoin can allow them to avoid capital controls. Also, in some countries hodling may still be better than holding fiat and losing on inflation, or relying on unreliable banks. |

I am thinking of the same, why are these China-based companies are filing their IPOs in USA? I am referring to Bitmain and Canaan. Can be because these companies are not so keen and confident on their own government and that one day the government will eventually decide against Bitcoin mining? China has stronger capital controls than the US and the latter has stronger rule of law, doing an IPO abroad gives them more flexibility in managing their finances. |

Is it really trustless if it relies on your company not going out of business? Which specific services are you referring to?
Even with gmail you can do it nowadays with their new 'scheduled send' feature. And there are many similar services, e.g. https://www.deadmansswitch.net/Google also offers a deadman's switch service: https://myaccount.google.com/inactive |

How the hell can the shares of a company drop almost 10% a day after the initial launch?
No seriously, I simply can't understand this, someone explain this to me like in a "dump for dummies" edition!! Bitcoin price falling is likely to be a factor here, no one's going to be buying more miners if the price keeps heading downwards (and it has been for the past 5 months). |

Sure, but that's not the popular perception. People don't associate rising cost of living with cash vs. plastic/mobile. They may bitch about the price of rent and food increasing but they certainly aren't complaining about going cashless. They want to go cashless. Merchants and black marketers love cash but mainstream consumers have us all by the balls in that regard.
I don't foresee anyone putting up much of a fight against the incoming cash restrictions we're seeing around the world.
Ask anyone who makes or supplements their income with under the table work (or anyone who doesn't declare their entire income) what are their thoughts on cashlessness. They are a non-insignificant group of voters. I've heard a few people voice the dystopian possibilities and I don't think they had much or any awareness of crypto.
People or their families who were oppressed by far-right or far-left regimes whose work was easier thanks to public or state-owned records will also often be skeptical of going full cashless. Journalists (especially investigative ones) and people involved in politics should too be wary. |

I think one reason I don't see anyone mentioning is simple obliviousness. On /r/Bitcoin once in a while I'll see a relatively highly upvoted post about someplace accepting Bitcoin that I've known about for a long time and I can see a lot of users commenting that they didn't know said place accepts Bitcoin.

Update 28.11 - Wszystkich zainteresowanych użytkowników z Polski zapraszamy do zakupu XMR/ZEC, tylko prosimy pamiętać, że w związku z ww. wymogami dział weryfikacji jest zobligowany do szerszego zakresu weryfikacji niż w wypadku BTC/LTC/ETH/XRP.
Sprzedawać też się da czy tylko kupować? Czy już obowiązujące Was przepisy w UK (czy tam relacje z podmiotami, dzięki którym możecie przyjmować płatności) uniemożliwiają/utrudniają Wam skupowanie kryptowalut (BTC czy XMR albo ZEC)? |

The in-game chat should be moderated. ---> http://prntscr.com/q2gynl Why should people have to read this nonsense, when it is supposed to be a enjoyable interaction for everyone? I am not a prude, but I sometimes play/gamble on these sites with small kids running around in the house "Users younger than 18 years of age are prohibited from using the service." and: "The operator is not liable for content that other users post or link to in the chat." And it's not like posted links are hot-linked, nothing is going to happen to them if they read the chat. |
