May mga nabasa lang ako dati pero maclaim mo naman yan. Gaano kaya kalaki yang naiwan na funds diyan at ETH pa?  Grin
Posible siguro noong bear market pa yan na naiwan diyan tapos naging dormant yang account na yan tapos tinry iwithdraw ng asawa mo tapos nadetect ni coins.ph na may sudden transaction na requested mula sa long time account na walang activities. Kung sinabi naman nila na ibibigay ang fund at need mo ng personal appearance ay kapag pupunta ka, dalhin mo na lahat ng necessary documents at IDs para hindi ka na magpabalik balik pa just in case lang naman.
Sa ganitong pagkakataon possible talaga na ma-hold ang account dahil dormant. Suspicious activity ang lalabas sa kanila, kung ang funds ay di gumagalaw simula pa ng bear market, mataas na value nito tapos biglang mabubuhay, unlike kung sa hardware wallet na ikaw lang ang may hawak, walang ganitong mangyayari. Kaya hirap talaga mag store sa coinsph e lalo kung long term.
Iba talaga kapag nasa hardware wallet mo o kaya wallet mo na nasa sayo ang private keys. Alam naman nating lahat yan pero kay kabayan siguro nalimutan lang na may funds pa sila doon at tingin ko may mali din dito si coins.ph. Dapat kapag nag log in ay may note na yung account na yun ay naging inactive sa mahabang panahon at dapat contact-in sila para maactivate ulit. Doon palang dapat ay may red note na sila para sa mga users na babalik sa platform nila. Basta wala namang masamang intention pero yan na kasi ang end game kapag pinapunta ka sa office nila, never mo na magagamit ang platform nila at kapag pinapull out na funds mo sa account mo.

Anyone here already experienced na lock yung account tapos pinapapunta sa office ng coins.ph para maretrieve yung balance or need magsubmit ng proof of income para maclaim yung amount?

Recently kasi ay naopen ng asawa ko yung coins.ph nya tapos may naiwan palang ETH na balance na ngayon ay malaking halaga na. Matagal ng hindi active yung coins.ph account nya. Nakakagulat lang na naglolock pala sila ng account na may balance kapag hindi na ginagamit.

Planning to go on theiroffice at Ortigas. Asking lang kung macla2im ba same day yung funds para hindi sayang ang drive. Ito talaga ang hirap kapag nagiiwan ng funds sa custodial wallet.  Cheesy

This is akosidogie, who's a known ML streamer and coach. He's rich because of how long he's been in the industry and has been a pro player before too. With so much sponsorship, I don't think that really has hurt his pocket that much but I know in our country, losing that in 2 minutes with that amount is already a lot as it can buy a lot of things already. He's broken his keyboard and used it to stomp onto his PC table and that's showing a genuine reaction of how frustrated he was. I don't know if it's intentional or not because he know that he's going to make it viral. But in today's social media presence in our country, many of them are not just influencers but also online casino endorsers.

There is no need to do that, just as traders train themselves using demo accounts and paper trades, someone that wants to learn more about sport bets can do the same, by simply mocking the process of actually making a bet but instead they just write it in a piece of paper, this way they can keep record of the results they get without risking any money, this way they can learn almost everything they need to know and save their capital until they are ready to finally take a risk.
I agree, there are mock bets that you can do on a paper and just do it manually. Check if your analysis are going to be correct during and after the game and see if your bet is going to win or not. And when you think that you're ready to take some bets, do it with small amounts. There's the minimum amount requirement for most casinos to place your bet and they're actually too little at all which might also be a good time to experiment. Adding with some real money for your bets will make you realize if you're prepared or not to take the gamble with small or higher amounts. Because if you'll not expand and upgrade after the demos, you might not feel how it actually goes with the process as you gamble.
85  Economy / Gambling / Re: What would you like to ask a crypto casino owner? on: February 15, 2024, 11:36:12 PM
You should let us know what questions you already have written so that we know what questionnaires you have already made for that guy. And from there, we're going to make our questions based on those questions that you have already created so that there's no waste of time for you and for those who are going to make the same questions upon consolidation of questionnaires from everyone here. Anyway, that's just my two sats and I guess that you'll just do the merge on your own once you're about to interview that ceo. What do they feel when someone losses a lot of money and that guy tries to ask them to refund that money? I know it's not gonna happen to refund but there were incidents like this. And to what extent they're going to give that gambler a potential refund after losing legally with their bets?

Time will tell.
Yeah. This is what it is going to be if the update is a real thing or just another reason for them to have their exit on a manner.

People have money invested there.
Are you one of them? and how much is your fund remaining there? If they're giving importance to their investor and even not the investors but to their loyal players or customers, they should have given some notice beforehand doing an update or maintenance. For how many days this message has been showing? There's not that much information about the timeframe on how long this update will be able. I guess that it is what it is and think of it as a likely exit scam.
87  Economy / Gambling / Re: I've Made Millions abusing Exploit in a Crypto Casino - AMA on: February 13, 2024, 08:13:39 PM
  • Do you still have remaining money from that?
  • Did it crossed to your mind of returning the money and/or felt any guilt on what you did?
  • Did you reinvest it? If yes, to which?
  • Are you retired because of that money?
  • How can you prove that you actually have taken millions with that exploit? Since it's the hardest part of the question, I wonder how can you.

Main question: How was the exploit performed?

The casino used provably fair dice game. They were about to release new version for their site, before release they had separate beta website for small group of players to test and look for bugs before the final version would be released. I was one of those players who got access to the beta testing site. Finally the testing period was over and new version of the site was released to the public. The beta site was still online. The mistake that the casino made was that beta site account and main public site were sharing identical server seed. Meaning that i could reveal the server seed on the beta website while still having it active unrevealed on the main site. The way probably fair works is that with revealed server seed i could calculate all the future dice rolls before they would happen. And thats what i did. I did it for over 2 months i believe. I abused it in a way where it really looked like at the end i was just getting lucky and that the EV would catch up in the end. Over 2 month + period i was withdrawing big amounts in btc totalling thousands of bitcoins overall.


1. I still have majority of thay money.
2. I never felt guilt or wanted to return the money. Casino is a very shady business and the owners of these platforms dont care about their players or their losses and will do anything to milk their customers out of their last dollar. So i feel no sympathy. I outplayed them at their own game.
3. I did diversify my btc investment
4. Yes i am
5. I could sign wallet containing good chunk of those coins but I wouldnt say that would be the smartest thing to do
That makes sense and you don't have to sign the wallet just to prove it. I've read more than enough explanation and that already gave me an idea on how it went. Someone who's going to make a story without a sense won't waste his time answering these questions. While everyone is starting to give the idea on what this casino was and the clues are there.

One question. Do you still see the site around?
I think that he still sees it.

It was not ethical in the sense that you were a close group and you were trusted by the dev team to help them. When you saw the hole, you were supposed to inform the management about it. Anyway, ethics does not have a fix rules book. The standard varies from individual to individual.
I agree, he's chosen to be part of the beta testing group and should have told the holes that have remained. But then, that's him. Anyway, I appreciate him answering all of my questions and have told the story on how it went.

89  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: address reuse within Electrum on: February 12, 2024, 10:06:16 AM
So it wouldn't matter how many sending addresses you had populated in Electrum it would be transparent anyway?
You can use and generate as much as you can. If one of the address received btc then the other end, the sender, will know that it came from you and it will recorded on the blockchain.

just use mixers and stick to one address to send from, that's all you need for privacy?
If you value your privacy except from using mixers then just use new addresses whenever you do transactions.
90  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Have you met this kind of investors? on: February 09, 2024, 11:00:48 PM
Yes, in fact that someone who has introduced and help me to withdraw before wasn't part of the forum but that person knows a lot of things in crypto before. But as time I've checked that person, no longer into crypto as gave up due to the market condition and can no longer bear the volatility of the market during the bear market. How many years was it? can't remember. So, there are those people that even if tell them good about the forum, they just don't like it. They want to go alone in the wild and deal with their own journey and experience and that's okay. There's no need to attract or invite people that have already decided that they're going to take care things on their own. With the number of crypto communities out there in socials, they prefer to be there as they only have to wait for updates and stuff.

TBH I think most crypto investors don't use this forum
I agree.
91  Local / Pamilihan / Re: BK8 - Biggest and Most Trusted Brand. Asia's #1 Crypto online casino BTC & USDT on: February 08, 2024, 10:22:23 PM
^^ Try mo mag affiliate, dami rin nagtatanong sakin nung nalaman nila na sa crypto ako at kung anong gambling platform ang nilalaruan ko. Passive income din to at sigurado ako na matutulungan mo sila pag may tanong sa yo.
Ang laki ng kita diyan sa affiliate lalo na ngayon na parang trend sa bansa natin yung online gambling. Ang daming mga influencers na nagpopromote ng sugal kahit nga si Manny Pacquaio na Christian ay nagpopromote na din kasi ang laking pera meron diyan. Laki siguro kita mo na passive kabayan sa affiliate.

Ngayon since pwede naman ang Gcash sa BK8, laking bentahe satin nitong mga Pinoy na gustong maka experience din ng mga ganitong platform. Lalo na mga football players tapos dala dala ang logo ng BK8. Sarap dalhin at suotin.
Nagiging trend na din ang football sa atin at dumadami na din ang mga fans. Tapos kapag bago sa pandinig ng pinoy ang isang platform, parang mas gusto nila subukan kaya papabor talaga sa agent at dadami ang commissions pag nagkataon na nagkalat na ang network mo at nagustuhan nila ang casino tulad nitong BK8.

Sa mga dumadaan sa EDSA, madalas din ako dumaan diyan at meron akong nakitang isang establishment diyan na may signboard ng bitcoin na parang crypto company siya sa payments pero hindi pa kilala yung mga services na ginagawa nila. Along Buendia, north bound yon o kung sa perspective ay papuntang Guadalupe yung way sa may tabi ng gas station. Minsan kung mapadaan ulit ako doon ay mapictur-an ko sana dahil madalas kasi hindi traffic hours ako kung dumaan dun. Alam ko na kasi kung kailan traffic dun at never mo na ako mapapadaan diyan kapag rush hours.  Cheesy
Sa Maya ata ang nakita mo. Ang nakalagay ba ay "check your crypto wallet?" Nadadaanan ko madalasa yan, bukod sa Maya wala na akong ibang company na nakikitang may crypto advertisement sa Edsa.
Nope, hindi siya billboard. Talagang literal na sign siya ng isang shop at nasa bandang kaliwa yun tabi ng gas station doon sa area na sinabi ko. Hindi siya ads, dahil naka ilang daan na ako since last year pa yun at hanggang ngayon nandun pa rin kapag napapadaan ako. Kung mapadaan ako ulit makikita niyo yung sign na yun kasi hindi rush hour ako napapadaan at may oras talaga doon sa lugar na yun at sa EDSA na light lang ang traffic.

Kahit man lang nga sana sa MRT ay magkaroon ng ADS patungkol sa crypto, pero wala ako nakikita or baka siguro hindi ko lang napapansin.
May bayad kasi yan at initiative na yan ng mga companies tulad ng Gcrypto, PDAX, Maya at Coins.ph. Yan lang naman ang mga kilalang exchange sa atin at pati na rin pala ang moneybees na maraming partners na mga shops na nakabase sa mga hotels diyan sa Pasay/Paranaque.

95  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 05, 2024, 04:21:47 PM
With that logic and point of view, someone who's seeing it with gambling is likely to get more in debt. That's sad but there's no improvement with that thinking and understanding if they see some resolution through gambling with their situations.
However, someone who frequently gambles should not see debt as providing a solution for them when they have no money. They should be able to restrain themselves from gambling when they don't have money.
They should just think about looking for a job to make money so they can allocate some money for their gambling activities. A person who is still in debt will run into problems sooner or later and when he realizes it, he really has difficulty solving the problem. Yes, it is sad but they should try to solve the problem by paying back their debts and never borrowing money again.
Yeah, having a job is the main solution for paying off the debts that a gambler has. There's no need to rethink of it and just look at the part when you can easily pay it with your salaries. You have to talk to the person that you owe money and explain that you'll pay it eventually with the use of your salary without any other sources like gambling again. Because it has already taught you on how to be better with yourself and it's not the way on how you should pay your debts.

The game was intense but it's already one-sided from the very beginning. The lead was just too much and it's going to be seen if this is really a scripted league as what people say. I want it to see that SMB will win game three because many are anticipating that it should be Magnolia to win the game 3 as they've said that this is what happens comes next when all of these grand finals come. It's a sister company as we all know but I think that it's not scripted. I just want to see prolonged matches because of the drama that has happened on this particular game.  Grin

We've seen some outside the court actions, as Abueva seems to have issue with Tau's wife I hope Calvin will control his emotions to avoid any issue again, it's a sistem company but the way they are playing both are hunger to win the finals and take that trophy,  but only one will take it and with how we are seeing the series its more likely that SMB extend their edge after winning game 2, though we can't remove that where bettors may think that there might be a manipulation that may happen to make sure that it won't be a complete swept for the Beermen.
Yeah, actually the win was less noisier than this drama and issue that Abueva has been taken against with Mo's wife. I don't know who to believe but as the game has been in action, Abueva has been hot and when the game's done, here we go with the next action and drama. I guess it is really what these finals become interesting. If it's not with Abueva, we don't hear any noise of the finals but thanks to him as for sure many fans are going to wait for the game 3.
97  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Nag impose na ng 1% tax ang BIR sa online merchant. Next na ba ang crypto? on: February 05, 2024, 08:11:49 AM
Siguro kung tataxan man ng gobyerno ang crypto ay papadaanin nya eto sa mga local exchanges natin kakaltas na agad yan once na magconvert tayo ng crypto into fiat kasi kung iisa isahin nya yung mga nagkikrypto dito sa ating bansa ay imposibleng mangyari yun dahil di naman tayo katulad ng mga online merchant na need nilang magrehistro sa mga online store ng kanilang tinda.
Kapag ganito mangyayari, madami ng iiwas sa mga local exchanges at hahanap nalang ng ibang alternative dahil kung automatic kaltas yan. Malaking bagay na yan sa karamihan sa atin dahil nga kapag ganyang mga bagay ay malaki laking halaga yung parang mawawala bawat take mo ng profits. Ang matindi nga diyan baka pag naging mahigpit pa sila ay irequired na iregister na yung trade or enterprise mo ay isa kang crypto trader.

Ang mahirap lang dito dahil malaki na ang singil ng mga local exchanges dito sa atin sa mga transaction fees pag pinatungan pa yan ng tax ng  BIR aba parang luging lugi na tayo nyan. baka madami ng mga pinoy ang titigil nyan magkrypto kung sakali man na mangyari yan. Kasi kahit sino naman tanungin mo nyan na kung wala ka namang kinita at abunado ka pa ay no choice kundi tumigil na lang.
Malaki ang spread nila tapos magkakaroon pa ng taxes. Kaya sapat na sila nalang yung taxan ng malaki dahil malaking pera ang pumapasok sa kanila at doon sila kumikita sa mga spread na sineset nila sa mga traders nila.

99  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 04, 2024, 09:44:37 PM
Before, I don't understand why people think that paying their debts through gambling is a choice. But now, I do understand that this is the reality of life that there are people that will always think of the odd idea on how make themselves debt free but instead, they're adding more pressure to themselves and will result to having more troubles to themselves. When you want to get out of debt, do it the traditional way by working and earning and paying it with your money.

In my opinion, there are people who think they can pay off their debts by relying on gambling, because there are reports that gambling can give them profitable wins and can also double their money, so this might cross their minds, so if they have a debt of $500 but that person has money. of $250 then he will use that $50 to gamble in the hope of getting a profitable win that will be enough for them to pay off the debt they have.

It's true what you said maybe this is a strange idea, because gambling doesn't guarantee that it will give them a win that can help them to pay off their debts, and with actions like this perhaps more clearly they will only have more pressure from their debts where the money is used for paying off the debt is instead used to gamble with the excuse of doubling up and as you said this will only add to the bigger problems they will get. I agree with you,  if you really want to pay off debt you should do a job that makes money and with a mind that doesn't think about gambling you can double your money quickly.
It doesn't guarantee gain but the chance is there, so as for the other gamblers that think of it. It means that there's a chance for them to become profitable and with that, that's the reason they are leaning on for them to be able to pay their debts off. But the results as we know, it's going to be on and off but at most times, it will be off and disappointing results.

That's because they see that borrowing money can be used to gamble and they also see that with the borrowed money, they can have a chance to win even though gambling will not be able to give them the victory they imagine.
It is a bad idea to borrow money to gamble because it can worsen the situation, especially if they lose all their money. They will not be able to pay their debts when someone collects them so they will probably stay away from it.
Yes, they should look for work to earn income. And from that income, you can use a little to gamble. This will help you avoid debt problems.
With that logic and point of view, someone who's seeing it with gambling is likely to get more in debt. That's sad but there's no improvement with that thinking and understanding if they see some resolution through gambling with their situations.
100  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a generous gamblers on: February 04, 2024, 05:10:43 PM
I guess that guy found his purpose for sharing his winnings for treating his friends or anyone he likes to treat. As you've said, he's already a pensioner and his children are old as well and probably they're all professionals and that's why he has just found that purpose and that's nice to see he's not selfish and sharing the winnings he get.
I think about it too for an old (assuming because he is a pensioner already) and a person that has nothing to worry about financially related is quite generous not all but there are some when it comes to sharing what they had. While on the other hand, giving should not be always, people are greedy and prone to abuse,
Well, that's his money and if he feels like to give everyday then we can stop him as it's his money and his old, a pensioner and nothing to ask for with his life. I think personally, I've met this type of person but I don't know if they're the same as this old guy who's a giver. When we're old and have nothing to worry about, we'd mostly do whatever we want to do and spend our money for everything that we want to enjoy.

i hope the guy won't tolerate people if someone wants to abuse his generosity.
I agree, many are abusing people's kindness so I hope that he'd notice that.
