Yeah, he thinks writing to the support is going to help him get his peanuts back when people have been waiting for years with their serious money-related issues.
Yobit participants should not complain anymore because they know the risk they are taking when they join the campaign, they could be blacklisted and worse they ended up not getting any from the amount they collected based on their post. This is not yobit's fault, it's clearly OP's fault since he join the campaign even without a formal announcement. Its not anyone fault but promoting scam for the high rewards always put you in this kind of risk.Hopefully they will understand now yobit is completely shady when it comes to money. Yobit is not obliged to give reward because they don't resume their signature campaign, its only the members are assuming they will get paid, and now they want to contact support to complain. LOL.. this is the first case I know, others have gave up after making some experiment and they don't send message to support claiming their reward. Obliged or not, if you treat your own "freelancers", (because that's what promoting a site is, more or less), like that, like literal dog shit, by first claiming that you resume the campaign, and then suddenly introduce a radio silence and stop communicating altogether while people are still promoting your business thinking you operate in good faith, well, you definitely deserve to get called out for that. Although, looking at Yobit's other malpractices, this is probably likely just another day at the office for them, and nothing compared to the other stuff they already pulled, so no big surprises here that things went down like they did.

You want someone to open 100 mail adresses for you for 3.55$?
If GMX is anything like gmail, you're going to either need another residential adress, proxy, or phone verification after you created 5 accounts. Total costs would be FAR above 3.55$
Not to mention that opening 100 email accounts, even if there was no captcha, or anti-abuse, would be pretty time consuming and definitely not worth it for 3.55$ (especially for those living in the US/EU. Minimum wage is already thrice that in a lot of places.)

I guess we really need to see the finished product first. Everyone has their goals specially building exchanges and providing good services. However, I haven't seen anyone who really giving us a good support, to be honest. Up to know there are a lot of complains coming from crypto traders so I don't know you are you going to separate yourself from the rest of the competition.
Speaking of competition, its really tough out there, specially new exchanges because of trust. And people tend to use those who have proven trust already. But good luck to your dreams and your project.
$1 million seed investment fund? I don't know how are you going to raise without any any working model to show to your potential investors.
A lot of people have Done That. I have Firstly engaged my self in the problems asked by different people from time to time and reviewed several traders based on their experience and I am really onto removing problems one by one. The finished product won't be seen before Nov- Dec. but to reach the technical requirement I am gonna need funds. it's not that I have not put my money in the project I took some loans from friends and an OD from the bank But that was not a big amount. Not just that i tried working and doing other stuff also to make more money so we can have some more fuel. Your idea isn't unique though. An exchange that functions like a bank account, is non custodial, has a lot of TPS and interest rates? Why do you think such an exchange doesn't exist yet? Because it's not possible. Binance, a billion dollar exchange, has been working on a decentralized exchange with dozens if not hundreds of engineers that can support x TPS, yet you claim you can do it too, you just need 1 million in seed money? And you have nothing but the idea yet? Without connections i can already tell you, it's going to be near impossible to get that seed money. There's already dozens of ICO's "Icoing" for the exact product you're describing, decentralized exchanges et al. Perhaps you can try your luck launching another token, but i know i won't be the one buying them.

Kinda offtopic but someone should take a look at this topic as well: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4971628.0It's just 6 people talking to each other constantly. It's obvious these accounts are connected, yet i am not so sure what exactly can be done about it... (Nothing?) All of the accounts talking in the topic also recently had their passwords & email changed. & previously to their account sale they would only post in russian and russian boards. Oh well.

Another newbie asking people to give him their coinbase accounts (And thus your KYC data)
This is an extremely stupid idea. He could use your account to at best buy some bitcoin with his dirty money, and at worst card and launder & fund terrorist organisations. Don't ever sell your exchange accounts.

Hello, I'm currently having issues sending from my BTC wallet, it keeps saying "incorrect address network" what does this mean please?
What wallet are you using? Never heard of the particular error before but it makes me think it probably has something to do with the checksum to verify an adress. Which means that the adress you're trying to send to doesn't "fit" the checksum = invalid.

Oh, and according to the account recovery team the information I have provided isn't sufficient to recover my account. Looks like that one goes to die too, I guess.
So that means that a staked PGP isn't enough to recover your account. Now i wonder why we really have those PGP threads in the first place if that's the case. So after hundreds of hours of forum time, writing guides and doing trades, a copied post from 4 years ago gets me a permaban. Ouch.
Theymos/(certain moderators) is a bit more lenient these days. If what you're saying is true, there's a good chance he'll just give you a 1 year signature ban instead. Probably need to open a thread for that though.

Leowonderful quoted a paragraph from the FAQ saying only fiats need KYC, so I hope it's still the same, and they are not trying to withhold user funds I would be surprised if it only is for fiat, considering their counterparties (Bittrex/Poloniex) had to force verification upon their users for just trading crypto a long time ago. Not even close. Bitfinex has been selectively allowing a small portion of their clientele cash out to fiat while the rest is either subjected to random verification or fiat withdrawals that never go through.
It has been like this for almost two years now so it's definitely not new. I wouldn't recommend anyone to use Bitfinex with solid alternatives such as Coinbase Pro, Bitstamp, Gemini and Kraken having a great trackrecord.
I've always read worrisome things about them but i didn't know they were Poloniex-tier. Seems bad.

I agree with you. I suspect them of being paid and not telling it to other people to avoid a new ban of the signature and their accounts. But how could we check that? Is there a list of the current participants somewhere?
Read: Probably the closest you're going to get without scraping userprofiles yourself. Yobit doesn't maitain a (public) list of participants themselves.
I really doubt these users are actually getting paid though, otherwise we would've seen a lot more alt accounts being active wearing this signature, considering they don't care about red trusted users etc.

I guess it might also be "Smart" to use the tor version of your mixer. https://who.is/whois/smartmixer.ioSo much for keeping no logs.. I don't understand how you can say that when you're using cloudflare. Smartmixer has different types of mixing strategies as defined by the pools below.
Standard Pool: Traditional and offers the basic type of mixing, where we mix your funds with incoming funds from other clients. Smart Pool: This pool uses three different sources of coins to cleanse your coins. We use parts of huge mixing amounts of the Standard Pool, private reserves of Smartmixer and funds from investors. Stealth Pool: The Stealth Pool isn't related in any way to coins of the Standard Pool. Instead, it relies only on reserves of Smartmixer and Coins from Investors. It is the safest method to mix your coins.
Is... This.. Bestmixer 2.0? This does put a smile to my face.

Huh. I always thought Bitfinex was like coinbase considering you could withdraw to your bank accounts?
Could you, up till today, withdraw to bank accounts?
I've never used them so i don't know, but that would be strange considering all the regulations that were forced on Bittrex, Poloniex, who were only crypto -> crypto.
Anyway, companies that claim to offer a KYC-free experience (or don't mention it), only to then subject the user to it, are scum. Plain and simple.

Useless metric for filtering shit posts. If anything the opposite. You can open a topic called "What do you use to wipe your ass?" in offtopic, and get 999 replies from users who tell you they use (probably?) toilet paper. Whereas a highly technical discussion or question will probably only get a fraction of these replies. I see your point and I love the shit post analogy. So it reverts to the signature campaign thing , see any use in it in that light? You mean signature campaigns pay extra to the topic starter if a topic is popular? That might be useful for some campaigns, but i guess it depends on the campaign. If the campaign is about a decently technical product, eg Chipmixer, they probably don't care at all that the signature has 10.000 views in Offtopic, but much rather have 100 views from people from technical boards from people who are probably more interested in the product.. (Not that Chipmixer necessarily advertises for clicks, they obviously run a signature campaign to garner community interest, trust, and name recognition, I just used them as an example.)

What's next, you're going to order posts based on popularity levels? It's just reddit or 9Gag at that point, which well, is useless. I'm not sure what this can be used for really, or why.

So he didn't feel bad about being banned, only about the 3 Merits? Let me guess: he can easily create another account, but getting more Merit is difficult? Just to be clear: creating another account to post anywhere else than in a ban-appeal thread is not allowed after a ban. He felt bad that his account is banned even after not spamming or doing anything wrong. And where is the ban-appeal thread? Where he can find that? Also, I have one doubt, all the merits he earned is it lost? Those Merits aren't lost, they're still used to highlight good posts. But he tried to send his merits to some good posts but he was not allowed to send it. If you're banned you're probably not going to be able to send them anymore, but the ones you received 'publicly' on your posts will still be visible. There isn't a single thread. He either needs to open his own topic on this board, or send a PM/email to theymos. banappeals-w6pquw43@theymos.e4ward.com

Good stats. It shows how much interest there is out of crypto space about Bitcoin. Today there is less then it was in November last year. So much for those that expect new ATH any moment.
I've been thinking about this as well. It seems like the interest in bitcoin hasn't or isn't increasing nearly as much compared to the previous ATH. But... Most of the people that signed up during that bull run were A. bounty hunters from (mostly) 3rd world countries, and B. 90% of the people that signed up never made a single post. So what interest was really displayed here..

LeGauloix somebody also suggested Kraken on twoplustwo's forums. Can you comment on whether it can be used as the only middle wallet/exchange between ACR and a bank account?
ACR -> Kraken -> bank account (US or foreign)
or would one still need a wallet ahead of it like Electrum? ACR-> Electrum -> Kraken -> bank account
From the TOS of Kraken: Use our Services to pay for, support or otherwise engage in any illegal gambling activities; fraud; money-laundering; or terrorist activities; or other illegal activities;
I think that really any gambling site without a license = illegal gambling activities, although i'm not quite sure. So you might just be able to use ACR deposits just fine, as i guess they have a license? Doesn't state anywhere that ALL gambling deposits are frowned upon. If not, or if in doubt: It might perhaps be smart to ACR -> Mixer -> Electrum/Kraken -> Bank account to remove any trace of the transaction originating from a gambling site.
