Pfffft that's the first place I'd look if I were going to rob you. Come on man.

You should just take your encrypted private key, stick it on a microchip, insert it into somewhere on your bosy (wrist? Foot? Idk?) then just use it when you need to. People can't just whack you with a wrench and steal it because they need the passphrase.

Other than that, just choose cool places around your house or in parks. Up a tree, in the gutters, just make sure your private key is on something that won't break down like thick metal or something like that. Hiding your private key in weird places is better than putting it in obvious places like a safe or a lock box IMO. Just encrypt it so if a random finds it it's useless, then hide them in 3 different locations. Done!

The only ting you can do is to contact the ICO and say what you did. It's probably going to take time for them to extract your funds but it should be possible.

If you invested in a scam ICO then the good news is your funds would have been gone either way so there's nothing to worry about!

Lol it's like the old days when dumbasses would give their alts trust. Like it meant anything at all to see some random newb say on some other random new "I trust this guy. He is a good man and helped me in my time of need." with no reference. Although the difference now is that accounts actually need merit, so there's more of a want to use it on your alts I guess. Oh well. I guess you guys got what you deserved.

Don't cheat the system and blame other people when you got caught.

Basically it comes down to most things being listed for sale in Bitcoin prices. If your altcoin drops from 250 Satoshis to 200 Satoshis, it's not really that big of a deal and could recover. When you're looking at it from a fiat perspective though, 250 Satoshis 48 hours ago and 200 Satoshis now is a 50% difference in price.

What I'd suggest is choose a coin that you're trying to accumulate more of (Bitcoin) and just follow the market with the value of that coin. If you're up to 300 Satoshis, you're up. The fiat value really doesn't matter because these are all short term gains and losses. Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are here to stay so HODL and don't let the big swings bring you down. We've dropped 90% before, then blew past that ATH by 1500%. We'll be fine.

You're trusting that the OP is in fact still the same owner as when Blazed and Light left trust for them back in 2015. Maybe the OP should sign a message to prove that they're the original account owner, then people can decide if they trust them with $83 or not.

Oooo I'm all excited. Pay day is coming boys. 1BBoPUH4yYdTrJZCHzUKAdgQPDSUdMLGNv has 1 Bitcoin in it!

Is there a certain day of the week that we're getting paid now Lutpin? I've noticed that the payments used to be Sundays but once we went biweekly it was maybe Tuesdays. Is it pretty much whenever we see a balance in that address?

It's worked out this week because I was going to buy some alts and they've all jumped off a cliff, but if there's a set day that we're going to see payments in the future I'd like to know.

This has been a really long campaign and it's still got the best rates out there! I'll be here until Bitblender no longer wants to advertise haha.

Haha yeah... At some point when you start cashing out the government is going to notice and want their piece of the pie. You're free to try and avoid paying taxes but I doubt it's going to go on for very long until you're caught. I'd suggest paying them now rather than paying fines + back taxes later.

Wow. This is literally the most interesting project I have seen in all the years I've been into blockchain tech and cryptocurrenies. I'm deep diving into your website now and I'm extremely interested in the end product. This sounds amazing. This is exactly the kind of thing that we need to move the world forward. So excited about this one.

Bravo. A debt backed currency. I 100% agree. Now are you trying to make this sounds like a good thing? Because in reality it's a clusterfuck in a hurricane. Nothing will ever survive by having more and more debt as time goes on. You can only print so much money until your currency and debt is completely worthless and you get liquidated. Maybe you should switch over before that happens. Either way idc, I'm in. If you don't understand it then we'll just see you in 10 years when you have to understand it to survive.

If your money is on an exchange then you're doing it wrong. Cryptocurrencies are there own banks on your computer or phone, so why would you ever let someone else hold your cryptocurrencies? I understand when you're first exchanging funds but once that's all said and done you really need to get everything out right away. Hold your own private keys because you're a far smaller target than a big exchange.

Hahahahaha! The answer to your last question is an obvious yes. There are so many dumbasses on this forum and this guy just shot himself in the foot. HAHAHA! I love it. This place just gets better and better as time goes on. Pass the popcorn. This is going to be great.

Well the lucky thing is, they used a very obvious scam name so it shouldn't be too hard for newbies to avoid this. I wouldn't expect many people to invest in it or even look into it solely based on the name. I know I'm not.

Something will pass at some point if the tech doesn't improve drastically and soon. Nobody likes the $10-$20 fees to send a transaction, and it makes the whole thing seem pointless. Once we're seeing normal tx fees again we'll see steady gains. I don't really understand how Bitcoin surged so much with all of these scaling issues, but I love it. I never complain when my Bitcoin is worth more!

Could you please explain how a government "cracks down" on a decentralized currency? Do they ban it? Do they tax it? All of these "crack downs" are very easy to avoid. You really just continue what you're already doing. If you don't like what you're government is doing, don't vote for them. If you can't vote, get the hell out of that country now!

Haha that would backfire so hard on them! They give each other merit then they get negative trust. If you try to rig the new system you'll get rekt by the old system. HEED MY WARNINGS NEWBIES! DON'T GET NEGGED! Lol. Their will be many a legendaries with negative trust I guess.

They take their dollars, give people a sketchy token, buy Bitcoin with the dollars and make bank. It's really simple actually. The give out something that the generate by the hundreds on millions over and over again and keep buying and inflating crypto. This is definitely going to be huge because Tether is so big that when it fails (not if, when) we're all going to feel it. Shit that's annoying.

There is one person on this forum that can answer that for you. If you've had your PMs blocked by them, I guess it's time to create a new Bitcointalk account. No one here can do anything about this, but if you're just here to vent then idk, I read it. There ya go. Your story is out in the world now.

Lol if you've only earned $20 while day trading I don't see how it's worth it.


That's very true. I think in some countries, if you don't switch back to fiat then it's not a taxable event, unless I understand that wrong. I hope not anyway because I haven't been paying attention at all and just look at the first and last number and how much I profited hahaha!

That's what I'm trying to understand. Okay, so there's an "inner circle" that's conspiring to give each other merit... But they don't actually need any merit for anything at all so it doesn't really mean anything. So... They just generated random fake numbers that mean nothing on a forum.

SCAM! Lol.

Because it's a shitcoin!!! It was never actually worth anything and the market cap was based on nothing. All of these obvious scams are collapsing but some dumb people hang onto them. It's not worth trying to convince them that their shitcoins are scams. Oh well.
