You could fake a transaction with your fake GUI "bitcoin-copy" in a café when trying to buy something and make it look like at first sight that you have the coins, but the transaction would never be confirmed in the real bitcoin network and therefore the buyer would probably never accept the "payment". All this would happen in your new coin's network and would never have anything to do with the bitcoin blockchain.
100% true... But i'm not talking about buying something in a café. I'm talking about convincing your victim that your "fake" wallet is the real one. Let him use your "fake" wallet, send "fake" bitcoin from your own "fake" wallet to his "fake" wallet. In the meantime, run 2 or 3 miners (fake wallets, setgenerate true) to confirm your "fake" transaction from your "fake" wallet to his... Ask fiat or ALTcoin for the "fake" BTC you sent from your "fake" wallet to his... I know, it's far fetched, and it needs a really gullible, new, unexperienced victim, but it could work... And i think, technically, it could be called counterfeiting (or am i missing something?) |

But it could be possible to temporarily fake a human out and make them think they had real bitcoin which is all that is required for an effective counterfeiting operation. Eventually the sucker will find out their duped but by then the thief could be long gone.
I guess that would be possible... Everything is open sourced... If you compile a windows QT wallet and an node with a new genesis block, different ports, only your node, but the same GUI wallet... Mine some "bitcoins" continiously with your new (fake) wallet(s), sell some "bitcoins" to somebody else using your own compiled (fake) wallet and cash in... Your victim would have to be new, and very gullible, but i guess i could work in some cases... Or am i missing something? |

the point of collateral is for it to be easily liquidated by the loaner in the case of a default. emphasis on easily. roi in 13 days of nonstop clicking on a faucet? nowhere close to being valid as collateral.
I'm sorry lottery248 but subSTRATA explained my point in better wordings (i'm not a native speaker). I cannot give you a loan with this collateral i'm afraid... I wish you luck in search for another lender. |

I have 0.05 i can lend out, but i don't think your collateral is valid (i'm not a faucet user, exept freebitco.in, so i might be wrong).
You have an account at skybtc.com, in which you invested BTC 0.04 and it's paying out BTC0.00001667/minute. The BTC 0.04 cannot be extracted, and is just to upgrade your account to be able to claim more BTC every minute...
IF you default, you expect me to "play" this faucet for 0.063/0.00001667 = 3780 minutes = 62 hours = 2.62 days nonstop (24/24, EVERY minute) untill i get my money back, and then give the account back to you???
You do understand, that if you default, i will have to sit behind my pc 12 hours a day for 5 days, clicking a button every minute just to make BTC0.013. If i fall asleep, don't click every minute (on the minute), go to the bathroom, it'll be a lot more...
Do you have any other valid collateral? A decent account without negative trust?

Hope in the future that they will increase their rates. And I know they are receiving lots of request about it.
If they ever do, i might switch back to them... I found their interface really good, and loved the almost realtime payouts  |

XMG (Coin Magi) looks promising. Interresting innovations making this coin quite fair.
Without a doubt! Joe is a great dev! (He also played a key role in switching NOBL over from POW to PoS!) I'm just not sure XMG is undervalued, or at least so undervalued that it's at the top of the undervalued list . . . which is the subject of this thread . . . But there's no denying that it's a great coin nonetheless! It's certainly not at the top of the undervalued list, but it is undervalued nontheless (IMO). I think it should be worth a lot more, being around for a long(er) time, stable, good plan, good dev, good specs, great community, vendors,... |

surprise why ppl still entertain this scam exchange and going to trade there,
Not really entertaining anyone. Almost a month passed since I can't login to my account. Glad that only some shitcoins were deposited and a few $. SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!
DO NOT PUT ANY MONEY THERE!Same here... I sent some BTA to their exchange just after their wallets went down, about 20 days ago https://chainz.cryptoid.info/bta/tx.dws?52974.htmBack then, the BTA were worth about $12 (if i remember correctly), i don't know what they're worth right now (but i can only imagine they're worth less)... We're not entertaining anybody with this thread, i'm just not happy with losing my money... |

Just a quick question from a newbie: you're using the lyra2ra algo in your OP, but every pool says to use scrypt (= not asic resistant AFAIK)... Why?
If you quote my pool https://zoom.miningpool.cc it is Lyra2RE and only the getting started page is outdated. I have to change it soon. Put your miner to it with algo option Lyra2 Cheers lahlor I was quoting your pool  Thanks for clearing my confusion :-) |

i have bookmarked this one in case i ever need to buy some BTC using my CC: https://anycoindirect.euCarefull: i've never used this one myself, i can NOT vouch for them... No idear if they're the real deal or not.... |

Do I need to be online all the time during mining ?
Or only when app sync ?
Nope, you need to be online... A big shortcoming IMO, since it's meanth to be an excercise app... Go outside and run while running the app and leaving your mobile internet connection on ===> much coins. But for people like me, in a country where mobile internet is really expensive, it's not as good an idear i'm afraid (chances are my mobile internet bill would be bigger than the $$$ i got from selling my mangocoinz) |

C'mon, it's just md5() in php... One line is all it takes to hash a pass  md5 is not secure anymore, password_hash() is the way to go password_hash would have been better, altough AFAIK it's new (isn't it only php 5.5>?)... It's just my point that it's not good to use no hashing whatsoever... I couldn't care less if they used sha, md5,.... but not using any hashing at all is unforgivable |

Why are you just making things up? Do you have any statistics showing that 80-90% of the removal requests are not honored by google? If he contacts the police and asks google to remove his personal info they would probably remove it as it is stated in their webpage
I should have use different phrasing: as far as i remember (instead of "as far as i know"... i'm sorry, i'm not a native speaker), they do not honour 80-90% of the requests... It was in the news in my country a couple months ago... But i cannot remember the exact percentages... They do have a transparancy report, for example: http://www.google.com/transparencyreport/removals/government/NL/?hl=nl33% of the requests WITH an official note from a JUDGE is honored... They do not give out percentages of individuals asking to remove their personal info, but if i remember correct, it was about 10-20% of the requests that was honored |

I don't think that google listens to such requests asking them not to index pages relating to personnel info. Haven't seen any case like that. Can you tell any procedure to do this?
https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/2744324?hl=enInformation we may remove
National identification numbers like U.S. Social Security Number, Argentine Single Tax Identification Number, Brazil Cadastro de pessoas Físicas, Korea Resident Registration Number, China Resident Identity Card, etc.
Bank account numbers
Credit card numbers
Images of signatures
Nude or sexually explicit images that were uploaded or shared without your consent
They do remove content, but it's pretty hard... AFAIK, about 80-90% of the removal requests are NOT honored by google... |

I'm pretty sure it's an inside job... They ran with the money and sold the DB IMHO.... If they were truely hacked, it was a BAD coding job on their part to leave all our passwords unencrypted in their db... C'mon, it's just md5() in php... One line is all it takes to hash a pass |
