Ohh boy. With such trust, such idea that was already developed by several teams, such good looking thread and web-site I'm not sure you'll be able to raise funds...
This is a hacked account trying to scam as much people as possible. It's not legit. Stay away from this guy, anything you will pay him is nothing more then a donation to a thief! He's been trying to scam users through currency exchange, selling the hacked account, and now this? He's stepping up his game that's for sure. Wish moderators would block accounts like these. He's also duplicate/double posting, pretty sure that is against the rules. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2191669.msg22007774#msg22007774 // http://archive.is/INHhs |

I have around 9000$ PayPal Balance.
I also have plenty of Ethereum.
I am looking to buy BTC.
I won’t go first. I need BTC first then I pay.
I know the fact that PayPal is refundable. So If you send first I will send as Gift.
Gift Payments are irreversible.
Ethereum payments will be done immediately after I receive BTC.
So PM Me all the interested.
Rates:- Preev.com +15% (For 100$ I will pay 115$; For 1000$ I will pay 1150$)
Note:- You can only me via this Account PM. If anyone else claims to be me, they are fake. I am looking for long term partners. I deal only in USD values not BTC values. BTC value fluctuates.
I know the fact that PayPal is refundable. So If you send first I will send as Gift.
Gift Payments are irreversible.
This is a straight-up lie. Paypal Family & Friends payments (gifts) ARE reversible. The fact that he is saying that they aren't, makes me believe he wants to scam you. Even if you use a middleman, he can still chargeback up to 180 days later, if not more. Especially if he is using hacked paypal accounts, which wouldn't surprise me, since he also hacked this legendary account. If you accept middleman let me know on pm
Avoid dealing with this user at any cost. It is only going to harm you, the 15% preev is really not worth the risk you are taking here.. It looks like this account has been hacked for a while now.
Note:- You can only me via this Account PM. If anyone else claims to be me, they are fake. I am looking for long term partners. I deal only in USD values not BTC values. BTC value fluctuates.
How ironic  .. |

Hi guys ,
We Need some good programierer or devolper for build a Bitcoin mixing Service
maybe we can make partnership too ..
can anyone help me please ?
Sorry to tell you this, but if this is how you are doing job applications (broken english, broken sentences, random capslock), i am not too sure if you should start something as serious as a bitcoin mixer. You should make a post in in the service section, and even then, i don't think you'll find anyone with alot of knowledge / skills, simply because they are not interested in something as unprofessional as this, unless you pay them good money. Also, i am not sure how much bankroll you have, but you're going to have a lot of competition, especially because you are going to be a new and untrusted mixer. Chances that you will succeed without someone trustworthy from this community backing you up are almost 0%. |

Hi, I have a friend that has got scammed yesterday. He was searching on youtube about Bitcoins and he found a video about a Bitcoin Generator. He trusted it (He is noob at pc and money so he didn't know about scams). He downloaded the program, he launched it and there was "You have to deposite 0.01 btc to [wallet address] to activate the generator". He deposited it  He restarted the program and nothing happened... he lost the money. He want to report this to the police... can he do that? Will the police do anything? Will my friend get back his bitcoins? Depends on the country, you can always report theft of 50$ at the police, but, it is HIGHLY unlikely they will even look at your file. It is a complete waste of time for them. Chances that that scammer lives in the same country as you, is, pretty small, and even if the police catches him, your friend will probably not see his bitcoins back. they're long gone. |

There's been talk about decentralized CoinJoin for years, but in practice (like most decentralized market solutions), there is not much liquidity to adequately mix coins. But there are real world examples of CoinJoin being used (see https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/CoinJoin). Blockchain.info used to have a Shared Send feature (not as private as CoinJoin, because the outputs don't have the same value) but they unfortunately removed it a year or two ago. I'm not aware of much effort to organize CoinJoins in Ethereum. I haven't even heard of a reputable mixer. There was a service called WeiMixer being advertised on the forum (centralized mixer), but I think it's a scam. I've heard of CoinJoin too, but it seems like that went nowhere. TumbleBit (payment hub compatible with Bitcoin) has been really hyped a lot -- supposedly totally anonymous and does not require any major protocol change. Unfortunately, I haven't heard about much progress there. Stratis has released an experimental TumbleBit server as of July; I'm not sure how successful it is.
I see. Seems that there is some sort of gap which could be filled in the future. I've not really heard much about the other projects you two mentioned, other then Weimixer, which is indeed a scam probably, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2164153.0(No activity for 6 days all of a sudden?) Coinjoin "works", but just doesn't have the volume to work correctly, do i understand that correct? |

I agree with velkro .. nicehash is not a good option many people there are having some trouble bout mining some says that they have lose some money and didnt have a good catch ... you must try it someewhere else ill comment here again once i prove that the one i am doing is paying good so i can be a hand for you .. bu for now goodluck !
I would LOVE to find out what people are doing with all them 80 dollar 333MH/s - 2GH/s USB sticks. lol
They are loosing money having fun. Nothing else you can do with them. My friendly advice is to leave mining to professionals with millions of $ put to it, to be able turn profit. Depends, altcoin mining with graphical cards can be very profitable, even for users with a small pocket. The only thing you need to start off with is 1 high end card, which you can get for ~500$. Alot of gamers already have one aswell, not thinking about the possibilities. I believe the ROI was indeed ~6 months with a 1070, which seems pretty good to me, everything you earn after that, minus electricity is pure profit, and mostly passive income. |

Ripple is currently being sued by R3, which is the creator of "Corda", because their contract has been wrongfully terminated. "In September 2016, the two companies entered an agreement giving R3 the right to purchase up to 5 billion XRPs for $0.0085 per unit until September 2019, according to a lawsuit filed by R3 in the Delaware Chancery Court on Friday. " Which is calculated, 0.20$ a share x 5 billion = 1Billion$, with a profit of 1B$ - 42.5Million$ (0.0085$ a share x 5 billion) = 957.5 million dollars pure profit. How is this going to affect XRP? https://www.reuters.com/article/us-r3-ripple-lawsuit/u-s-blockchain-startups-r3-and-ripple-in-legal-battle-idUSKCN1BJ27I?il=0It's really simple: 5bil (owned to R3) / 38.34bil (total supply) = 13% So in worst case, we can expect 13% price fall, or 0% if lawsuit fails. If we assume chance of lawsuit succeeding is 75%, then we can expected (13% * 0.75 + 0% * 0.25) = 9.75% price fall. With the volatility of crypto, i wouldn't be so sure of that. Whenever there's extremely bad news coming from a coin, it tanks like crazy. Math rarely correlates well with the reality, which is, if they win the lawsuit, a devaluation of over 13%. That seems pretty concerning to me, if i would still be holding ripple, and, if i wouldn't have to, wouldn't take it either. |

The best way is to keep them stored offline, on a paper, but then again, one tornado, one flood, one burglary, and your bitcoin might be gone..
However for alot of people this isn't something they want, as your funds are pretty much inaccessible.
You need to find a balance between Security & Convenience.
I basically would want to hodl my cryptocurrencies in a safe spot. The funds I'd like to spend on something I will send to my secondary wallet which will be more convenient but less secure obviously. I'm planning to buy hardware wallet as a haven for my money. But which one is the best? I'd say you basically have 2 choices. Either buy the TREZOR, or the Ledger Wallet S LEDGER, https://www.ledgerwallet.com/Ledger reviews, https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/wallets/ledger-nano-s/TREZOR, https://trezor.io/Trezor review, https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/wallets/trezor/TREZOR VS LEDGER, https://99bitcoins.com/trezor-vs-ledger-hands-hardware-wallets-review/ The article basically says there is no real difference between either wallet in terms of security, only in the design and User interface. It's all personal preference. They're both good choices, Although ledger is 30$ cheaper as of right now. |

I've found what appears to be a slightly broken mirror sight of bitcointalk.org at bitcointalk.to. Does anyone know what this is because it concerns me this could be some kind of scamming/phishing site. I almost logged in then realised I was already logged in to the actual site on another tab, and realised the domain was different. Had I done that the site would have my login details... I believe this site is/was indeed used for phishing. If i recall correctly hacked accounts would sent you a PM about a certain forum post, you click on it, and then you need to relogin on bitcointalk.to again because your session ""expired"". Similar to this, bitcointaik.org https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1752318.0https://who.is/whois/bitcointalk.orghttps://who.is/whois/bitcointalk.toThese Who.is results are both extremely different, chances that this is a mirror site from an admin is highly unlikely. Most definitely a phishing scam. |

Those signal groups are mostly scams or have been created so that the founder can buy a lot of pre pumped coins and make money on all the people that invest after him... whats different on your group?
My signals are good and with quality. I don't give advice to buy pump coins. I am here to to help you and if you like my service so can become my premium group member.

Do you even know how much that is? It's impossible. If you could, there would be no reason for you to try and smear your premium package to us, hell why would you even give out your signals? Lets be honest for a second here. How much have you really earned from your ""own"" signals past month? 3000%? Please post some proof of that. I'd jump ship immediately.

I see that the look of poloniex.com website looks like bitcointalk.org display, I have a guess that the creators of these two websites are the same person, how do you respond?
That you will have to come up with some dang good evidence before i believe it. The forum layout is SMF2.0 i think, and i'd be surprised if those guys even know what bitcoin is, or crypto. Theymos, Cyrus, or any other admin have nothing to do with how the forum is coded, or the basic looks of it, as far as i'm aware. Let alone code an infrastructure for it. Now ofcourse i am exaggerating a bit, but there would be no reason for SMF2 to hide that they also own poloniex.com, right? Also, you are posting in the wrong section. better move this thread to Speculation or something, ./s |

How do you take care of your cryptocurrencies not being stolen?
Most of us know that keeping your funds on exchanges isn't safe by any means. Now online wallets that you can access via web browser or even smartphone aren't safest as well. Hardware wallets can be probably hacked (although you can encrypt the wallet.dat file, is that enough for hackers to not stole your money?).
The best way to keep cryptocurrencies is physical wallet like Trezor / Ledger Nano S. But if you connect them to your PC are you surely safe? Let's say that your PC is infected with some sort of malware that's focusing on stoling your private key or something like that. Are you still safe?
Even your wi-fi can be compromised and infect your devices connected to the network.
I want to secure my funds, so what is the best way to make sure your cryptocurrencies are safe and sound?
The best way is to keep them stored offline, on a paper, but then again, one tornado, one flood, one burglary, and your bitcoin might be gone.. However for alot of people this isn't something they want, as your funds are pretty much inaccessible. You need to find a balance between Security & Convenience. Also, even if your wifi gets hacked, it shouldn't result in the loss of coins. I'm pretty sure most data is heavily encrypted, don't quote me on that though. |

Hi there,
I would like to ask the community's help to understand what are the implications and risks of adopting SegWit (addresses) from the point of view of the non-technical average Bitcoin user.
From my research, I've almost only found technical discussions on SegWit's merit for the Bitcoin network and ecosystem as a whole (including different points of view such as users, miners and investors). Other than that, everything seems to indicate there are only pros in adopting SegWit addresses and I haven't found a single source stating users shouldn't use SegWit addresses.
So I'm looking for concrete reasons why regular users should, but mostly why they should not start using SegWit addresses.
Thank you.
This article gave me personally a lot of insight in the situation, check it out, https://medium.com/the-publius-letters/segregated-witness-a-fork-too-far-87d6e57a4179Some of the biggest opposers of segwit, https://medium.com/@zhangsanbtc/why-we-must-oppose-cores-segwit-soft-fork-bitcoin-miner-jiang-zhuo-er-tells-you-why-28f820d51f98Also, if you're interested in reading some more, https://bitcoinclassic.com/devel/FlexTrans-vs-SegWit.html Some people are mad about segwit because there are better options already out there, some argue that it is "Flextrans". segregating the signatures is convoluted, the extension blocks must still be propagated and kept.
4meg for basically nothing
sosialistic price control of segwit transactions
malleability is not really fixed
huge risk
the straightforward, common sense, safe option is to just allow larger blocks.
Something which is also quite interesting, https://calvinayre.com/2017/06/19/bitcoin/risks-segregated-witness-opening-door-mining-cartels-undermine-bitcoin-network/ A bit dated but still a good read. |

Hey guys, I’m not an old-timer here, but posts quality problem is so evident and eye-catching even for me though.
80% of threads consist of pointless posts simply simulating discussion and activity. When I saw few paged threads with paraphrased replies my first impression was like WTF is going on, really doesn’t look like a normal talk. Didn’t take too much time to sort things out and realize where a problem is. IMHO, signature campaigns should be better regulated, maybe limited and users rank system is quite imperfect. I’m not against campaigns at all, but you cannot force one to post regularly and maintain meaningful conversation, it’s frankly incompatible, otherwise you undermine forum the very aim to let people discuss and share useful information.
So do we need changes?
I believe the staff are aware of the problem, but lack a solution. What do you suggest we do? We could’ve draft some kind of petition to head moderator or which is more preferable due to new forum development, moderators might want to stick a thread in Meta section for example, where anyone could freely offer or promote their opinion on how to improve rank system and bounty regulation, as well as discuss sanctions for those not willing to obey the rules. The first thing on my mind is to oblige signature campaign managers to control participants posts a way better, secondly to restrict or lower significantly minimum post amount requirements. , now i know this is not 100% accurate, but it gives a pretty good indication of what the traffic has been up to lately. I don't think it's in the best interests of the current owners of the forums to change anything at all, hence why they try to ignore the issue as much as possible.. Signature campaigns are one of the things which keeps this forum relevant, it brings in alot of posts = views = money. If they would follow your suggestion, they would go out of their way to A. enforce rules which are, with the current mod team, unenforcable (Checking the post quality of thousands of posts daily?), and B. destroy their own "business"/ forum. Activity / Posts would obviously decrease by alot, which means less traffic, less adrevenue, less rankings in google searches, name it all. |

lot of difficulty posting, many times, post does not go through, takes forever or times out, wont let to post back-to-back poorly maintained and policed crap website. THerefore difficult to use in general.
Lot of jerks participating i am facking outta here looking for better forum.
lot of difficulty posting What does this even mean? post does not go through Never had that issue, and if it was a real issue, don't you think more people would be whining about it? You might want to check your internet connection / tor / VPN speed. poorly maintained and policed crap website. Poorly maintained? In the sense that it looks ugly? Also, i for one find this forum one of the best moderated ones out there. Mods/DT1/DT2 are very open about who they ban / tag /. Everything happens with a reasoning behind it. I don't understand what you think is wrong with it. Lot of jerks participating i am facking outta here looking for better forum. This forum has over a million registered users, Ofcourse out of the 1 million, there's going to be alot of retards between them. That's just statistically given. I also think this is no different on any other forum you go on. Also, if you're looking for bitcoin related forums, i can tell you, bitcointalk.org doesn't have that much competition. Good luck finding something like this. |

Though they have indeed ended their campaign after just a month or less. This is pretty suspicious why they gave up advertising so quickly.
They ended their campaign only in 2 weeks. The biggest mistake while they ran their campaign was because they hired so many spammers (it was pay/post, and imagine senior and higher rank could get $3 from each posts) whio only posted on their own thread, lol. Last Active: September 04, 2017, 02:23:12 PM Too bad they didn't online again for almost a week, looks pretty suspicious. Yep. I saw this coming from a mile away. Their website infrastructure was a copy paste, they had no dedicated campaign manager, but they did pay 3$/post, which is, pretty ridiculous for such a new service. They had no escrow funds, no information about their bankroll, their site was, as far as i know, not even opensource. Though they have indeed ended their campaign after just a month or less. This is pretty suspicious why they gave up advertising so quickly.

Last Active: September 04, 2017, 02:23:12 PM Too bad they didn't online again for almost a week, looks pretty suspicious. Exactly. I could be completely mistaken but then in my opinion they could just be getting some advertising and coverage of their site to make others click into the site thinking that they were legit. And then they can start selectively scamming big deposits. This is further reinforced by the fact that they were pretty active on forum for the first few weeks but now hasn't logged in 1 week. Why this sudden drop off in activity and advertising when their site has just started to gain traction? But this is indeed the only scam accusation i could find regarding weimixer. We'll see what their true intentions are soon. Probably only trying to catch the big fishes, and hoping they don't report them, so they can stay in the business a little longer. Same thing as torwallet.com probably. https://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/15324/weimixer-ethereum-mixer |
