Literally nothing if we're going to be honest. Especially when the one who offers this kind of service has no reputation on the forum and his account is worth nothing.

In addition, if someone has a wallet that is protected with a strong password, the chances of unlocking such a wallet are practically zero, unless the owner cannot remember some details of his password. However, it is possible that someone has found a way to "extract" such passwords in some other way than through the brute force method.

I would not even use the word "normal" but rather "extremely profitable development of events" because the volatility that Bitcoin has is something that attracts investors (at least serious ones who know how to trade). Those investors were obviously very satisfied with their profits and estimated that it was time to exit, and there should be no doubt that they will use the current dip to invest part of their profits in cheap BTC.

I also hope that a new bull run will follow in a few months, but that should be taken with a grain of salt considering that we live in a world that is completely unpredictable. However, if the announcements of central banks about lowering interest rates come true, there should be no doubt that this will be an additional incentive for most investors.

It doesn't seem logical to me that this scammer receives approximately the same sentence as the Bankman who caused financial damage in the billions of $. I don't mean that he doesn't deserve at least 10 years in prison, but I think that people like him should get an additional sentence that would include a ban on internet access for a certain period - or at least that he must have special software on his computer/smartphone with which would be monitored when it comes to his online activities.

Maybe it sounds strange or as a threat to human rights, but someone who has done something like this once is very likely to do it again if he has the chance. Deterrence in the form of restrictive measures is by far the best measure when it comes to such people.

Hong Kong's total ETFs market is worth about $50 billion, which is very small compared to the US ETFs market, which is estimated at slightly less than $9 trillion. The amount of money and the number of investors in HK therefore could not have any significant impact on the price of BTC, with the fact that mainland Chinese cannot invest in that ETF.

The story was sold for weeks as "the next big thing", and realistically few mentioned that Hong Kong and China are not the same thing when it comes to investing really large amounts of money in anything. Maybe that's why China allowed such an ETF to be approved, because interest in it will probably be quite low, and money control will still be at a high level.

The only reason that I have already mentioned several times is the one that stems from the fact that some members were unhappy that such data were published publicly. Even if this is the reason, there is always a solution in the way of marking them with "x" or "anonymous" instead of their name - of course such a way of posting would require the admin to send a PM to everyone on that list so that it could be partially "censored" if it is really a problem for someone.

And what is the real lesson of this story? If you owe money to the IRS don't go to Spain because they have become specialized in US citizens on the run from the law

That possibility always exists, they say that Spanish prisons have a very bad effect on US citizens when they think about returning to their homeland.

Besides, why does anyone call Roger Bitcoin Jesus when he got a new nickname a long time ago?

I didn't suspect it at first, but checking the detectors mentioned above, it seems that the OP is one of those who completely rely on AI - of course, this is about the fact that most of his post is just c/p of what he got as a response.

That's why I say that the tendency to gamble has its roots in culture, education and social norms in each country. In some countries there are very young people who have extremely rich parents who let them flaunt their wealth, and such young people are very frequent visitors to casinos. The only difference between young and old gamblers is that the former don't spend their money, and if you didn't earn something yourself, then it's even easier to spend it since you know you'll get more money very easily.

I agree that the publication of these statistics would be a kind of thank you to all those who work in the background to make the forum a better and more pleasant place for all who visit it as members and as guests. I don't know the real reason why the admin doesn't do it anymore, but if it's just a lack of time, can that task be transferred to the global moderator @hilariousandco who is active in the posting Monthly Report Statistics?

I agree that it makes no sense to give someone such feedback (even if it is neutral), because as far as I understand, @krishnaverma did not ask that someone give him merits, but he suggested that he would reward others with his sMerits. In addition, merits are not exclusively related to the quality of the post, but everyone gives them based on their own preferences - and I remember posts with only one word that received merits.


I can say that I know the history of that user, considering that he has been trying to sell his signature/avatar for a long time and that I wrote a comment in his topic. From my perspective, it seems to me that he is trying to do something by trying to copy the moves of other members, but it seems that he only irritates others with these moves.

I think that everything depends on the country and has to do with the level of education and general culture towards such things. When we talk about typical physical casinos, I can say that I see mostly middle-aged people there, I would say 30+, and when it comes to sports betting, there are still younger people.

However, now that gambling and sports betting are happening more and more online, it is difficult (without data) to estimate who uses such services more. What seems to me is that a lot of people who didn't have such activities before because they didn't want to be seen in physical branches have now taken advantage of the opportunity to gamble in the online world.

At the end of the day, gambling evokes the same emotion in people of any age, and there's nothing wrong with it as long as it's fun and doesn't become much more than that.

I think that such things are at the bottom of the list of priorities for the admin, so even though it would be logical to remove what no longer makes sense, on the other hand, there is no harm in them still being present. I think many are interested in the situation with the new forum that was announced a long time ago, but it is something that can happen in a few months, but also in a few years.

That would be a logical step considering that the laws are not the same for everyone, and in some countries cryptocurrencies are not recognized at all, therefore you cannot pay tax on something that practically does not exist in your country. I think people like the OP have doubts about such things, but they don't want to consult with their tax offices for the reason that they could suggest that they own cryptocurrencies at all - which can certainly be risky in some countries.

I would describe the whole tax thing in the following way - if you don't trade through CEXs and it's mostly about smaller amounts that pass under the radar, why bother with all that paperwork. If you are a slightly bigger player, have KYC on CEXs, make bigger profits and buy houses, apartments, cars from that, then it would be logical to pay taxes - unless you want someone to take it all away from you one day.

The matter should be so simple, but instead of helping people they make incomprehensible moves - because they really could have sent an e-mail to that client and explained the situation to him, or perhaps used one of the internal forms of communication if it exists within the platform. I'm just wondering if it's just bad customer support, or are there some rules that prevent them from contacting their customers in these situations?

I have already expressed a similar opinion in some of the previous discussions that took place in another topic, but also before when I also expressed my opinion that this way of "distributing" merits is not what it should be. Personally, it never occurred to me to ask that someone "review" my posts, but then again, everyone is free to share their sMerits as they wish, as long as it does not enter the sphere of abuse.

---

@The Sceptical Chymist, I think I already suggested it to you, but if you want to distribute most or all of your sMerits, simply raise the scale and give 5 or 10 merits for each post you consider valuable (even max 50 merits). That way, you can still be a useful merits source, and if you also reward people who know how to distribute your merits to other quality posts, you've done a great job.

It seems that a lot of people think that Bitcoin is legal tender in the CAR, but that idea has long ceased to be a reality, which is not surprising considering the economic/financial state of that country.

This is certainly one of the best pieces of advice that can be given to any beginner. First, you need to familiarize yourself with what you are going to invest in, only then start with small amounts, and of course never invest more than you can afford to lose.

According to what we know from this forum, this whole operation is under the control of only two people, and therefore it is not even realistic to expect someone to answer your e-mails. The only option is to send a PM to @TheQuin (the link to his profile is already posted) and hope he sees the message and does something about it.



You can do it because you don't have the appropriate rank yet, but you can post links and someone will quote the post and the pictures will be visible. In the meantime, read (if you haven't already) just enough to get an insight into how problems are solved.

(RESOLVED) FREEBITCO.IN SCAM, DEPOSIT NOT CREDITED

I just gave you an example, but you invested in altcoins that you claim have already achieved up to 3000% and you are still not satisfied? Of course, everyone always wants more, but sometimes you have to be realistic in life and not ask for too much. Anyway, I would give you the title of the most impatient member of the forum, considering that you have started dozens of topics like this one.

I don't understand why they gave you information that actually can't help you contact the owner of that account? Maybe it's about someone named Mike, which means you can narrow down the choice to a few million people in the US - but also "mikec" can be a nickname used in some countries in the Balkans, and also as a surname.
