Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Keystone 3 HW coming soon!
|

Keystone should rename and rebrand to Discount hardware wallet... they are offering reduced prices all the time  Exactly, that's been their marketing strategy for as long as I can remember, and if they keep doing it, sooner or later it'd have a reverse effect on how people see their brand as a whole. A cheeky move, but I love it  They are preparing release of Bitcoin only Keystone device around Bitcoin halving, that should be in few months probably.
I'm wondering if that finally means it's the end of the road for the non-Pro variant [they're already way behind schedule]. |

At BitChanger, we have combined the latest technology ~Snipped~ BitChanger is the most reliable and fastest way to exchange 50+ cryptocurrency assets. Your so-called reliable platform that's using the latest technology appears to be broken because no matter what pair is selected, the minimum amount will always be 2599.8 [that's a ridiculous amount (especially for Bitcoin)]: e.g.  |

Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Testnet faucet abuser with 4 accounts

My anti abuse measures include lowering the testnet amount for users with low Activity and for requesting more than once.
But this only mitigates the problem, as opposed to solving it... From what I'm seeing, everybody who posts on your thread is automatically given a certain amount of testnet coins, so all you need to do is remove the automated part from the equation and manually check everything. I don't know what the point of them draining the Testnet Bitcoin faucet is.
and can't also be traded.
Unfortunately, there's a platform that provides unethical services for those who'd like to get something for their testnet coins [as much as I hate to say this, I think we need another reset]. |

@Peanutswar Alam kong direct translation ito ng kabilang thread, pero considering na nag bago na ang ilan sa mga stats and charts, sa tingin ko mas maganda kung i-update din natin ang mga ito: - Roughly six and a half years na.
- At the moment, nasa 96% na ito.
- Hindi pa visible ang mga P2TR inputs dito.
Naaalala ko pa dati na halos parang walang fee kahit na legacy address ang gamit dahil wala pang mga spam attack dati kaya parang iniisip ko paano kumikita miners dati noong parang halos walang fee sa pagkakatanda ko.
Mas malaki ang mga block reward noon  |

Thank you for taking the time to record the whole conversation for us [everything checked out]... I'll be leaving a negative rating shortly on all of his/her accounts, but you can go a step further by creating a type 2/3 flag on his/her accounts: You might want to create a type 2 or 3 flags [also known as the scammer flag (read "Trust flags")] on those two accounts [with enough support (+3), it'll be activated and the scammer in question would get a "red warning" on top of all of his/her threads while also getting another "warning" on his/her account]! - Steps: Go to their trust summary page > Scroll down to find the "add a flag" button [it's located at the end of the negative feedback description] > Choose the appropriate type, then proceed to the next step [the rest is self-explanatory].

1. What's the most effective method for discovering a new online casino when you're seeking a change from your usual options?
If I'm looking for a cryptocurrency-related online casino, this forum would be the best route and it also helps with seeing what our community thinks about every single one of them. - Having said that, I wouldn't stop there and I'd advise always reading their whole TOS page (apart from cross-checking whatever they state on their platform)!2. How would you describe your overall satisfaction with any of the mentioned options?
Neutral 3. Would you recommend a beginner to follow a similar approach based on your personal experiences?
Yes, it's a good starting point... 4. In your opinion, should online casinos adopt corporate social responsibility practices? If yes, what specific initiatives would you like to see them undertake? If no, what is your reasoning behind it?
Yes... An automatic way of identifying problematic players and something that helps them understand the boundaries. |

If that's true, that's worrisome. Seriously, how can that happen? How can an unauthorized entity enter their database more than once in a row?
Because of the way they've replied on Twitter, I was also under the impression that their database was compromised, but based on " this blog post", it appears to be only the third-party service [few users on Reddit were pointing to Sendinblue (also known as Brevo)] that they were using for their newsletters. |

And what seeking donations means?
Organic seek donations is the name of ALIMWENZA's alt account. Anyways, this proof will only let us tag these two accounts
There's one more throwaway account [refer to post #3]. A video recording of those screenshots [although welcome] seems a bit excessive.
Not the screenshots [SS can easily be manipulated], but the actual conversations between the involved users... Although it might appear to be a bit excessive at first, such recordings [blckhawk's suggestion] are probably the best route for providing concrete proof.
@indexhtml You can use OBS to record the conversation and upload the video to a website like Streamable. |

If there is an exchange out there please let me know or can do bank transfer (UK)
You can find a few of them on the following " lightning network stores directory" but considering I've never tried any of them, I can't vouch for them [kindly DYOR before trying any of them]! - You might see some outdated results, but it's a good starting point. |

@Jay Johanson Does the blockchain analysis part that's included in the scoring system, solely use the automated analysis tools that some of the exchanges also use for flagging stuff, or there's also someone who goes through each one of the addresses and transactions to look for errors? - The reason why I'm asking this is that I've tried a few of these automated tools in the past and on a few occasions it led to a false-positive result!Update:I'll try to find out what I can. Thank you Update 2:SFR10, Whenever possible, we try to automate all work processes.

If Trezor allows you to change your email address, and if yours was pwned, changing that email address to a new one is helpful.
This would only come in handy if you're going to completely ditch the affected email address. Reading some comments here, it seems that the news stating that the breach only gained access to their support ticket database is wrong. Some users who got the phishing email aren't even Trezor users. They didn't contact Trezor support either.
It appears to be two separate incidents in the space of a week... The first one was for their ticketing system and the latest one is for their " newsletter subscribers". |

There's another one who tried covering the tracks by editing his/her post: braceletspatriot [proof]private convo messages i had with him
Considering that your account is still quite new in this forum, most of us probably wouldn't tag their accounts without concrete proof [I believe everything took place in Telegram, so you might want to export the chat history and upload it to a website like MediaFire instead]. - BTW, sorry to hear or rather read about the incident in question. |

Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor Suite now supports coin control

it has introduced relevant new ( to most all HW) feature, namely "wipe code" which is PIN-alike, but instead of allowing the entering data area entirely erases it.
It's a good thing they finally decided to introduce a new method to wipe Trezor devices through Trezor Suite [the "previous method" wasn't that user-friendly and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who completely forgot Trezor already introduced such a feature in the past]. - Out of curiosity, does anybody know why it took them this long to add it to the Trezor Suite? |

Ano sa tingin niyo maganda kaya itong feature na ito na dinagdag ni Gcash?
Maganda sana, kaya lang maraming bagay pa rin ang hindi covered sa insurance nila [unfortunately]. At pati na rin siguro sa mga nagdedeposit sa mga casinos.
Excluded ang mga ganitong bagay sa insurance nila. pwedeng magamit sa kalokohan since pwede mag file ng dispute yung ka deal mo pag loko-loko kahit legit naman ang deal nyo at magkaproblema ka pa dahil sa bagay na yan.
May point ka, pero hindi ganoong kadali dahil mahaba ang proseso nito at titignan nila mabuti yung mga documents: Requirements to file a claim for Send Money Protect
You will need to file a police report within 24 hours of the discovery of the fraud
You will need to notify GCash within 24 hours of the discovery of fraud to stop further fraudulent activities or suspend your account in the event of an account takeover fraud. Click here to file a report
You must make reasonable attempts to recover the funds back
You must retain documentary evidence of the fraud
You must notify Chubb as soon as possible by calling the hotline +63277565410, Monday to Friday, 9:00am – 5:00pm, excluding public holidays
Documents needed to file a claim for Send Money Protect
Copy of the original police report(s)
Statement detailing the discovery of the fraud or unauthorized transaction(s) from your GCash Account.
Documentary proof that the Express Send Money transaction was made:
Screenshot of the GCash transaction receipt with reference no.
GCash transaction activity history in-app
Copy of any chat communication, SMS, call logs, email, fraudulent website, or other method of digital communication that led to the Express Send money transaction(s) or request for fund(s)
Copy of any chat communication, SMS, call logs, email, fraudulent website, or other method of digital communication showing reasonable attempts to recover the funds back from the third party.
Any additional supporting documents proving that you are a victim of fraud

I don't see any good reason to contact trezor support, unless there was a lost package, device stopped working or something similar.
Apart from lost packages, I'd go with creating a thread on their forum instead. To my knowledge Trezor only holds onto customer ordering info for up to 30 or 90 days I can't remember which.
It's 90 days but they " only anonymize it", as opposed to deleting it [I got mixed feelings about it]! - It's worth noting that the issue we're facing at the moment is about their customer support data (the above data that you were referring to wasn't affected). |
