I'm not sure, but isn't the 1$ offer only valid if you buy the domain for 2 years? The costs would be 1$ for the first year + 16$ for the next year - totalling 17$ to pay.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
1003  Economy / Services / Re: Donate To 1000's of Charities Using BTC :: Bitcoin Donation Fund on: November 23, 2015, 03:33:02 PM
Skype
that's even worse. there's a reason most of the sensible people on this forum flat out refuse to even touch skype you know.

What would be greatly appreciated from anyone is a suggestion to make sure the donator actually donates. The worst thing that can happen is someone scams by faking an email. You can donate $1, then forward the e-mail and edit the $1 to say $50. I found Teamviewer/join.me the only practical solution.
Why should we send bitcoins to an aaddress provided by a Jr. member claiming to donate 100% of the funds? I'm sure you won't do this whole forwarding/exchanging thing for nothing - there must be a catch.
The email isn't the matter, using team viewer is very risky because you can easily get a virus or Trojan on your computer. You can make sure that a donation donated by just looking up the public address, there is no need for any email... And you said you will exchange the btc to PayPal, not looking for PayPal donations.
If you really are deciding to do such a work: hire an escrow that will hold the funds and donate them directly to a btc address provided by charity organizations(most of them accept bitcoin now)

Hi Zeroxal, look your write in bold.

I think you've made your threads and posts it's not true.

You make me go round as if the person most guilty and do not want to be invited to work together to solve this problem.

I've been trying to explain, as clearly as possible to you, although I realize that writing and my English not so good, but I am trying to explain everything and give evidence to you. Starting from twitter, BTCJam, my BTC address in FortuneJack same as that I post on my account and also I made a logo, it's all I can prove it.

Please, you do not judge me like that, writing in a fair, do not make me was the guilty party because does not want to cooperate to resolve this issue.

Thank you
-KenR-
Once again, we don't need evidence that you are the owner of the account. We ended evidence that you and jadens are not the same person.

Just wanted to add the fact that there is a free method here: http://www.mediafire.com/view/2hua7s29m2tc7hq/Turtle_Club%27s_edu_method_for_HF.pdf

It can be read online, so there is actually not a big risk of download a virus.

OP, are you selling .edu emails from a Virginia University?

Opened a poll here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1258163.0
About what action I should take when the loan won't be repaid on time.
1008  Other / Meta / [Poll] "Hacked account as collateral" keep or sell on: November 21, 2015, 10:18:33 PM
I have an accusation thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1256710.0
Another thread in meta here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1258103.0

To put everything into a nutshell of what happened instead of reading my previous thread:
I lent a user named "jadens" some bitcoin and he offered me his Sr. member account as collateral. The strange thing is that another person named "RKen" claims that the account was his and it was hacked - he PMed me the day after the loan has been funded. Which leads me to question how he found out that the account was in my hands and he couldn't give any explanation other than "that's my account and I know where it is".
He wants his account back but doesn't want to contact the admins after I wanted the staff members to check the IPs between jadens and RKen.
To come to a conclusion, I think the whole thing was a plotted scam, which I have never seen or experienced before.

Many asked for a signed message, which I unfortunately don't have... And please don't post any spam posts like:"Why didn't you ask for a signed message?" - that's exactly my problem right now and I know it.

The repayment date of the loan is November 24th

So my question is:
May I sell the account after the repayment date has been passed or should I hold the account until the whole thing gets settled, but by doing that I would have lost my btc and have a bct account that I cannot use.

What's the opinion of you guys?
1009  Other / Meta / Re: Who runs this board? Emergency please help on: November 21, 2015, 08:57:44 PM
But Sirius is the true owner of the forum.

BTW, what is the emergency?

If you want buy the forum or something, talk to Sirius, otherwise, to theymos
The forum will unlikely be boughten by someone. I think the biggest thing you can do is to get a sponsorship with the forum, just like 'Private Internet Access'.

i hope you all figure this out and dont get into fights we all expect legitimacy into this

Yes, I hope also like that.

Hopefully with some of the evidence I have given it could provide clues to Zeloxar and readers here that it was actually my account.

And I also have a question to Zeloxar, are you've tried to communicate with people who already offers this account? And if indeed he is the owner of the original KenR account, trying to prove to the post that I have made above https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1256710.msg13034031#msg13034031, can be proved by him all?
There is no need to prove that you're the owner. The problem is that I suspect you and jadens to be the same person and trying to default my loan and run away with my btc and the collateral.
I will not give you your account even when you can prove it to me - prove it to the admins and recover it.
I will probably sell the account if the loan hasn't been paid back till the 24th of November, but before that I'll let the community decide.

i hope you all figure this out and dont get into fights we all expect legitimacy into this
There is no fight about it. Either RKen recovers the account via the admin or I'm keeping it until it gets settled. And your post is extremely spammy and useless.

Oh, thanks for the research. I was the one who changed the password of that account. But I don't have a signed message, which means that even when this is a whole scam he will run away with his account and his bitcoin?

Unlikely. Admins will most likely not restore the account because of this thread alone. If RKen is indeed the original owner and was scammed as well you two need to find an agreement. From past experience[1] this can take several months.

So what am I allowed to do with that account now? After the loan is defaulted(not paid back), may I sell the account or just keep it until the whole thing is settled?

There are no forum rules regarding this. What the community will find acceptable or not greatly depends on how convincing the "account was hacked" story is or will be in the future.
Looks like the user RKen has stopped the hacked account accusation for now. Will create another thread after the loan wasn't repaid on the 24th of November asking for opinions from other members over this situation. Will create a poll about if I should sell it to cover the loan loss or just keep it for further investigation.
Well, let's see what happens till then.

Interested in buying one of the addresses. I want an address with the prefix: 1Zeroxal case sensitive. Please tell me the difficulty and price Smiley
Thanks

"Small l" is not a valid character, see here -> https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Base58Check_encoding#Base58_symbol_chart

1Zeroxa1 has a difficulty of 51,529,903,411,245 and would cost you 0.495BTC. Calculating it would take a month or longer.

1Zeroxa1 case insensitive has a difficulty of 1,610,309,481,601 and would cost you 0.0165BTC. Calculating it would take 2-3 days.
Wow, the case sensitive prefix is very expensive. Might consider buying the case insensitive one. Are these vanity addresses found by your own computer or do you have special hardware for it? I tried with my own graphics card which got me to 7.6-8.0 Mkeys/sec.
Mind sharing your speed?

which is only possible through the help of one of the staff members.
Once again, I would be thankful to any of the staff members that would check the IPs of these accounts to make sure.
Mods aren't able to track IP addresses, only admins can. You're out of luck, considering the fact that admins are slow to respond even in cases of actually hacked accounts.

Admins usually dont get involved in these issues, so their speed of handling things is not the issue. Also matching or different IPs does not mean much. Its easy to get a different IP (Tor, VPN, Public Proxy, etc.) esp. if its planned.

-snip-
Yes, it was used as a collateral. However I didn't require a signed message, which was the huge mistake. I'll surely return the account if it was stolen, but this case is very suspicious in my opinion, so is there any solution to it?
One of the ways is to check the IPs associated with the 3 accounts (jadens, RKen, KenR) - which is only possible through the help of one of the staff members.

Well considering the password was only changed once[1] the "my account was hacked" story is not very convincing.

You can not clone a cryptocurrency in a 1:1 ratio. You can only clone the specs of it: algorithm, total coins, PoW, PoS,...
It's impossible to clone the existing blocks, transactions etc.

BTW, am I allowed to sell the account when it surpasses the repayment date of the loan and it hasn't been paid back? It would be the 24th of November.

If the account was used as collateral you are essentially free to do with it what you want. If it turns out to be stolen the right thing to do would be to return it though. Its your job to check the collateral you accept, e.g. by requesting a signed message.
