141  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [banned mixer] yomix Scam Attention, everyone, stay away immediately!! on: April 07, 2024, 01:48:14 PM
OP, @YoMixScam, it would be very useful if you could confirm what you stated here. icopress has already suggested that you somehow publish a letter of guarantee to be sure that your claims are correct.
If you don't want it to be public, you can do it through private correspondence with one of the verified members here, whose words we don't doubt.

If you're going to use a service, shouldn't you do a little research and make sure there are or haven't been any issues before sending money? If there are, then use another service right?

The thread containing the mentioned post has been viewed 1540 times since its opening. icopress's post was seen much fewer times. So the news went almost unnoticed by a large number of members.
The information was transferred to the altcoinstalks forum in a thread that has been viewed 3300 times so far. Also, a very small number of different people saw such info.
Even with research, it is quite possible that he would not have come across this discussion.

I see this problem of lack of information partly in theymos' decision to ban mixers and open discussions about them. Without the mixer ban on Bitcointalk, I'm sure everyone would have been warned much earlier in a much more transparent way.

I'm wondering how you were able to send about 30,000-40,000 USD to a site that I had never dealt with before or had the necessary trust? It's weird !!!


It happens.
Until just a few months ago, Yomix was very present here and considered a stable service. I have used it myself a couple of times.

Btw the date recorded on the website page is in UTC+8 but i can adjust it on forum's timezone.

It is definitely better to be synchronized with the time zone of the forum.

note: I'm glad that you finally presented your tools here.  Wink Or maybe you did earlier, but I didn't see it.
143  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: OnlyFaucet - Crypto Faucets on: April 07, 2024, 12:19:49 PM
What's the purpose for this? I don't think there's not a lot of people that are using faucets in crypto anymore, they're discontent with how little the amount that faucets give and the value.

There may not be a lot of people using the faucet, but there are still some. I claim that faucets are useful, especially for all those new to the crypto industry, who will learn more about bitcoin transactions, addresses, fees...
Also, the faucet script itself does not have to serve exclusively to bring direct profit, it is often used, for example, as a way for the website to have regular visitors. More traffic on the website brings some other benefits.

Nulled is just another term for cracked/pirated digital goods. And surely you know it's illegal to sell such stuff.

Nulled crap always ends up causing more problems than the script itself costs

It would be really useful if the banned members were automatically excluded from the possibility of being selected for DT. Banned accounts should be prevented from having any influence on the forum.
btw. Another collectable user, with a lot of positive tags, who screwed things up. Those lads would have to be more moderate and careful there.
145  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Crypto scam on: April 05, 2024, 05:07:23 PM
Thanks all. I wanted to give crypto a try and I got scammed. No never again.


What happened to you has nothing to do with crypto. You have been deceived, just as if you bought rotten bananas.
It is obvious that you don't have enough knowledge about the whole thing, forex trading, and you certainly don't know much about crypto. $250 it's not a lot of money if you learn some lessons from it. So, for example, you will not go tomorrow to buy a screwdriver and decide to be an aircraft mechanic, because you saw somewhere that they make good money.

Also, your site claims that you've been operating since 2017 and you here is saying that you've been working since 2018. You might want to be more consistent about your details as it reflects your way of doing business.

They have passed verification and analysis on Bestchange, so I'm convinced that they couldn't lie to them for the years of existence. The official information on their page on the Bestchange website says that they are 3 years and 6 months old. So completely different from everything that is mentioned in this thread.
In this case, for now, I trust Bestchange, although it is quite unclear to me what this manipulation is about  Undecided

147  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Feds transferred BTC from seized Silk road wallet to Coinbase on: April 05, 2024, 03:35:33 PM
That sounds more like declaration of War on Bitcoin 😲
At the very least this is a significant market manipulation attempt and as far as I can tell this would be the first time the US regime is selling seized coins on a centralized exchange instead of auctioning them off-the-market.

The only question remaining is: are they starting to feel threatened by Bitcoin?

However if affects the market, it will certainly recover. What is good, it is better to happen as soon as possible and to remain without the possibility of manipulation.

How accurate are these data?
According to Arkham Intelligence, the US Government account holds much more, 212.862K BTC or $14.42B

148  Economy / Gambling / Re: Blackjack.fun |SLOTS|SPORTS|ESPORTS| JACK Token on: April 05, 2024, 12:10:56 PM
As far as I know, they(Blackjack.fun) deduct transaction fees from your withdrawal amount using standard Bitcoin transactions If you use Bitcoin as a payment method. Bitcoin may not be the most economical option. You should explore other cryptocurrencies for more cost-effective withdrawals. They support 70+ cryptos.

Earlier I suggested that they implement a swap between currencies, which could be one of the solutions so that users can choose a coin for withdrawal with the lowest fee.
I'm not sure how technically feasible it is at Blackjack.fun casino, but I've seen it at other casinos.
@blackjack.fun, what do you think about it and is there any possibility to implement some kind of swap between different coins?

These days I wanted to withdraw Bitcoin, but the withdrawal fee was too high for me (around $7-$8), although at that moment the network was not under congestion. You certainly already have other coins implemented, which otherwise have negligible transaction fees.
However, I am a little curious how you determine the withdrawal fee since it is 3-5x higher than it is usually at that moment on the network.
149  Economy / Reputation / Re: Get 201 merits in 2 months from a farm on: April 05, 2024, 11:46:52 AM
Perhaps some of the merit source are inactive or not as active as they used to and that could be another argument for adding another set of merit source to replace those inactive ones.
Merit sources going afk happen all the time. For example one of the Croatian merit sources left forum last September and hasn't been back since.

I think I read somewhere that theymos recently replaced one of the inactive merit sources with a enw one but can't remember (or find) who exactly was replaced

The increase in the number of merit sources may be conditioned by the previous results. Perhaps a more detailed analysis would give a clearer picture of how the merits are distributed and the possible effects of that.

I assume that this statement is not just made up, maybe it is time to tone down the drama surrounding the new merit sources.
At the moment, theymos is not considering anyone for the role of m'sources (I believe this will be the case for at least the next 6 months).
150  Economy / Exchanges / Re: eXch - instant exchange BTC / LN / XMR / LTC / ETH / ERC20 on: April 05, 2024, 09:53:29 AM
Hello eXch mod - please refer to this post. I’ve had $211,000 of my funds stolen yesterday and the scammers sent it to your exchange

I'm sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, this is over and no one, not even Exch, can help you. Immediately after the first confirmation, the purchased coins were sent. User funds are not kept for a long time on this exchange, and everything is automated, so the chances it will freeze any transactions are zero.

Hm good timing ... or maybe bad dunno, but I have a question about freezing/frozen crypto because of this  (eXch being used as exchange in FixedFloat breach according to beincrypto). Even if untrue it piqued my interest in regards to frozen crypto.

1. (to anyone): How does freezing crypto even work?
2. (to anyone): How effective is it?
3. (to eXch): Did you suffer any loss, because of crypto freezing?

You are asking the question in the wrong place. There is no coin freeze on Exch.

Quote
4. (to eXch): Is there any special treatment in place if it comes to your attention that fraudulently gained crypto goes through eXch?

They find out about it only after the exchange is complete, like the one in the @matrixconnor case. Unfortunately, by then it is already too late to do anything. Everyone should take care of their money, they should not expect that someone else will do it for them.
151  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Tornado cash founders charged with money laundering/sanctions violations on: April 04, 2024, 10:26:46 PM
Usually I don't store funds for exchange, but those funds are there for daily trading. Still, they allow trades but disable withdrawals. 

Did I understand correctly, the funds you are talking about were sent directly from Tornado source to Binance?
I know of earlier cases where Binance requested verification for funds deposited directly from the mixer, while it was not the case for mixer -> wallet -> Binance. It is the same starting address where the funds came from.

Since you adding closed services, you can add [banned mixer] also. They are out of business and their website is offline. Everything was preceded by some bad decisions here, which resulted in negative feedback on the forum.

153  Economy / Services / Re: looking for digital marketing / business referrals on: April 04, 2024, 10:07:35 PM
Preferably residing in the US. We are looking for someone who can do digital marketing or refer businesses to us. Commissions can be very lucrative and paid in crypto. DM for details if interested

I hope that you will explain a little better when it comes to negotiations, since what you stated here is quite unclear. But if you were to guess, I assume you are looking for a marketing agency. If it's only a referral commission as a way of calculating payment, I'm not sure that it guarantees success.
Anyway, the first one that came to mind is AB de Royse777 who manages a marketing agency and is active on various platforms https://r7promotions.com/
154  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: CEX.IO does't let me to use my wallet on: April 04, 2024, 09:44:12 PM
I's been 1 month since CEX.io recieved last docs.
2 months ago I started to send them all the needed.
Their support didn't read my questions for 2 weeks.

They now have got everything about my bulgarian residence and there's no anything else they can ask additionally.
Probably we may admit - they simply don't want to let me use my money.

Any suggetions?

I poked at them on Twitter and Reddit, we will see if they are interested in it at all. A very sad story for an exchange.

I don't know what the amount is, but have you thought about consulting with lawyers? Cex.io is a legitimately registered service, and as far as I know, Bulgaria is a full member of the EU, so such a process could be feasible.
155  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Backlinks anyone? on: April 04, 2024, 09:22:36 PM
I see now. thanks for clarifying. I'll probably implement Scamadvisor and similar services in the future.
It's hard to keeo track manually of who scams whom these days ... Sad

It is better to do your own research than to trust these automated services based on AI which takes some irrelevant facts to determine the scam score.

Maybe you are a fan of cloud mining and that is why you insist that you have such a category at all, but it is a very sensitive territory and I would only consider them if I had personal experience with them.
156  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: CEX.IO & My Frustrating Experience BE CAREFUL on: April 04, 2024, 12:06:27 PM
Please be patient and reach out to the technical team for assistance. Your feedback is valuable in helping CEX.IO improve their services.

This should be the official slogan of the cex.io exchange.
I have come across at least 50 feedbacks that say the same thing, their support is poor, in fact, it is almost non-existent. It has been like this for years and it is obvious that it does not affect the improvement of their service.

158  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What's your take on all CEX being regulated? on: April 04, 2024, 09:52:27 AM
A possible solution for this problem could be a system like the one used by banks. Where everyone is obliged to give a proportionate amount of deposit to the central bank and these funds serve as cover for any disputes that may arise. This would perhaps encourage exchanges to take more careful care of their users' entrusted funds.

Few days ago, the issue of Kucoin was circulating about some of the exchange executive involvement in money laundering act, if not for SEC, perhaps we could be talking of another FTX right now which could have impacted the market negatively considering the size of Kucoin in the market.

Don't confuse accusations of money laundering because they didn't have rigorous KYC with misappropriation of user funds.

Do you think we can get to a point where we can say an exchange has spent over 10 to 20 years without any drama.

Did you hear about Bitstamp?
There were no significant dramas related to them. Bitstamp was founded in 2011, 13 years ago. So it's possible
159  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Tim The YouTuber Scammer - Avoid him at all costs. on: April 04, 2024, 09:33:46 AM
Otherwise, he would try to defend his reputation and not ghost this thread.

Here is the best solution. You are to deliver the functional product that he requested in the initial agreement, and he is to pay the amount agreed on that occasion. It can't be too complicated.
This is about attempted fraud, certainly he should not ignore the whole thing.

Just another normal thing happened in Bounty project, it's always been said, in order to be safe only accept a project that willing to escrow the reward, but bounty hunters won't hear that.

No ANN thread and no representative account, there's nothing people can do here...

April 2024, bounty hunters continue to spend their time on something that has declared itself as a project, and it is called "Solana SSHIB".  Sad
