Good questions... Off the top of my head, I'd say the easiest and simplest approach is to also include the name of the platform in question in your backup.
^{- I'm just trying to offer a solution in advance, for those who might have a hard time recovering their wallet in the future (I do know it might not be a straightforward process for everyone, but it's doable).}

I completely understand what you're trying to portray. I just checked in one of the platforms and I counted 24 similar clock emojis ^{[and 5 more that are slightly different]} + 4 similar planet earth emojis and I do get it that depending on the set of emojis ^{[especially those with many variations]}, it could significantly extend the trial and error phase but personally, I don't think it makes it an impossible task.

Testing for fun or it might even come in handy for educating the younger kids.

Ito ang dahilan kung bakit hindi ko na ginagamit ang services nila ^{[nakakairita masyado]}!

Hangga't walang ibang platform na kayang mag compete with Coins, hindi sila mag babago ^{[alam ko may ibang platforms na tayo sa Pinas, pero none of them are on the same scale]}.

Baka may connection ito sa mga sinasubmit mong documents ^{[e.g. expiration date nila]}.

Sa tingin ko hindi ito mangyayari dahil mukhang wala pa silang balak mag offer ng crypto wallet para sa mga users nila ^{[buy and sell lang]}.

I wouldn't call it "possibilities" if we're not going to get those 21 variations within a single platform.

It seems you're mixing two slightly different situations... In the first part, you mentioned remembering it and I believe that implies memorizing it ^{[no one should do such a thing (it's nonsensical)]}, whereas in the latter you mentioned backing it up correctly and that's where I fail to see how it can still lead to not being able to recover your wallet ^{[it might require a conversion of some sort in the future, but I don't think that's a major stumbling block (unless I'm missing something)]}?

I completely agree, but it's perfectly fine to use such things for testing purposes.

Unfortunately, this is a popular and obvious type of scam... Regardless of whatever that they're calling it, there's no reason for a "legitimate" platform to ask for more when they're already in possession of your funds!

• Here are a few other similar fake platforms:
  
  
  • BitPor.org ^[archived]
  • DeeplBit.com ^[archived]
  • OMXMax.com ^[archived]

If someone already sent you a private message that they can recover it, they're also 100% a scammer!

There are a few platforms that might come in handy with regard to tracing those funds but there are still some obstacles to intercepting their operations:

e.g.

• If they try to sell it on the dark web, realistically there'll be little to no chance for you or anybody to recover those funds!
• If somehow it traces back to a specific exchange, you still need a court order to freeze those funds and I don't think it's going to be that simple!

In other words, there are no shortcuts ^{[don't get your hopes up]}:

  Here you can find some of the third-party providers:
  ^{Note: AFAIK, most of them aren't providing their services to individuals, but they might come in handy + I prefer to not vouch for their services [DYOR].}
  

  • Chainalysis
  • Crystal Blockchain
  • AML bot
  • CipherBlade
  • Elliptic

You might want to fill in the missing parts by following the format from "this thread" and also make sure to move this thread to the "Collectibles" board instead.
^{- Move button is in the bottom left corner of the page.}

It still depends on a few things ^{[e.g. what you're comparing them with, their condition, if they're graded or not and etc...]}!

It looks like you forgot to include the link to your community.

For those who might face such problems in the future, you can refer to "Emojipedia ^{[copy paste a particular emoji in its search field, then scroll down to see the results in different platforms]}".
^{Note: My post shouldn't be counted as a recommendation for using this specific wallet!}

For those who might be interested in checking the similarities between them, here are the archived versions for two of those: mabetex.biz and cybervit.net

Found two other "active" websites with similar content:

• new-investments.pw ^{[archived - Creation Date: 2021-11-29]}
• blitz3.profitscripts.click <sup>[archived - Creation Date: 2022-06-12]
  - I think this one it's just a demo!</sup>

Looking forward to seeing the result ^{[as it stands, you're the first to report this design flaw]}.

I completely agree with everything that you said, but at the same time, it has led to more work for other developers ^{[I recently noticed a few of them released two versions for their apps, just so it could fit the nano s a bit longer while also taking out some of its functionalities]} and fewer features for its end-users.

Surprisingly, I didn't know about some of this stuff...

Unfortunately, the same can't be said with regard to some of its official resellers

Did a quick test and it seems you forgot to turn this feature on from the back-end ^{[at the moment, there's only one option]}!
^{- I also noticed the checkout page doesn't show any kind of error for typing invalid stuff!}

Found a bunch of other explorers:

The following explorers should move out of the main list:

• Tokenview - Inaccessible.
• Bitcoinchain - No longer being maintained ^{[last block height shows 614926, while we're at 749576]}.
• Blockexplorer.com - I don't think it has anything to do with Bitcoin +it's also outdated.

In the majority of cases, the answer to that it's going to be a big fat "NO", but if your wallet becomes a well-known brand in the community, then perhaps you can earn a decent amount by charging consultation fees ^{[e.g. Electrum does it]}.
^{- Refer to "this post" for more information.}

Base sa email na natanggap ko noong nakaraang buwan, may 14 pang cryptocurrencies sa app nila: Screenshot

Considering na magooffer sila ng similar features like Maya, I highly doubt makakapag compete sila with Coins ^{[unfortunately]}.

May isa pang difference sa kanila ^{[yung centralized coordinator sa Wasabi na kaya niyang ifilter out ang mga UTXOs (not sure kung naimplement na nila ito, pero it defeats its purpose to some extent)]}.

May dalawang nadagdag sa listahan nila ^{[ColdCard MK4 at Trezor Model T]}.

This line just made my day

I dug hard, but couldn't find any other reported cases... Did it occur while using the LL or it was connected to a third-party wallet like Tronscan?

It seems the memory issue that dkbit98 mentioned last year, it's starting ^[somewhat] to protrude from the surface ^[source] while it hasn't even been a month since they've sold the remaining stock!

Thank you for your explanation, but am I correct in assuming that the first part of this quote implies there's going to be an indirect connection with someone else's coins? If I'm correct, then I don't think the latter part ^{[no max limit]} is feasible if you're going to partially rely on other exchanges in your platform...

e.g.
Your reserve + funds from other mixed operations = 1BTC
Someone needs to mix 10BTC
Result = ?

Btw, it appears to be down at the moment:

• Quote
  Details: 0xF2 — Introduction failed, which means that the descriptor was found but the service is no longer connected to the introduction point. It is likely that the service has changed its descriptor or that it is not running.

Considering what Jack and Strike have been trying to achieve in the past year or two, this move is a strange one...

It seems that they still have to wait for an unspecified amount of time ^[waitlist] before they can use that particular service.

Had no luck in finding someone from this forum, but here's an "unsatisfied" customer!
^{- It's worth noting that there are still no non-KYC cards, so it's limited to European countries [+ UK].}

It's indeed interesting, but it seems that the following part might no longer be the case in Australia:

  "In Australia, the ATO has a list of guidelines that need to be met for a crypto asset to be considered ‘stolen’ or ‘hacked’, which if met may be able to be claimed as a capital loss (3/6)"
  
  The "ATO guideline link" from that blog post leads to "Page not found" error, but I did manage to find a "snapshot of that page ^{[refer to the "Loss or theft of cryptocurrency" section]}" from April of this year!

I only have limited knowledge, but AFAIK, there's no general answer to this question because rules aren't the same in each jurisdiction.

Not sure how accurate is the other thread you mentioned earlier, but they're claiming to have "an operating license for online casino games ^{[not sure if it's different from what you were asking]}" and as long as there's a "proper" system in place, there shouldn't be any issues with managing such things.
^{- Btw, I had no luck in finding anything in regards to their company.}

@peacemaker7
In regards to the algorithm that's being used for selecting the time and the number of hops in the mixing process, does it follow a certain pattern based on certain things or it's completely random?
<sup>- While you're at it, would you mind telling us what is the odds of getting someone else's coins [even indirectly (e.g. a couple of hops)] that were previously mixed in your platform?
- I also noticed there's only a minimum limit, but not the other way around (I don't think there's a single platform with an unlimited reserve, hence the need to include the maximum limit)!</sup>

I strongly believe this was also the time when you updated your Ledger live to its latest version and that finally led to showing the correct balance in your LL ^{[here's a post from one of their staff]}.

Why'd you use Electrum as a watch-only wallet? Are you implying that you're still going to use LL, even though you know it's quite buggy?
