Pues sinceramente; entre que no haya una trasaccion real detras, o que la haya pero todo sea a traves de una tercera empresa, y con las limitaciones que se comentan.... No veo que haya ninguna diferencia en absoluto. Estan vendiendo humo en ambos casos, ya que no puedes realmente operar con BTC, solo con una divisa más que paypal ha añadido a su plataforma y manda unos numeritos de una cuenta a otra.

Madre mía, no podria tener unos habitos de postear más esporádicos ni aunque me esforzase. Cabe añadir también que estos meses de bajada han venido tanto por el comienzo del curso como por haber empezado en un trabajo basura, pero parece que vuelvo a sacar tiempo (yay)

This is a common misconception I recall even theymos clearing up, but I don't have the time to search for that post right now, so I'll try to make a simple explanation to it.

The forum can be seen publicly without an account, BUT the moment you register into the forum by creating an account, you agree to the terms of said forum. The forum is private, as it is OWNED by an individual, but anyone can create an account without any real requirement. To make a comparison with the real world... we are members of a swim club; anyone living in the city can join for free, but the facilities have some rules that if you don't follow, the team will kick you out. You are allowed to use everything, but it's not public

You are contradicting yourself. You suggest we get a vote on the forum changes but then are OK with the management completely ignoring that voting. For that, we can use the current system in place; which is basically leaving feedback on an already created thread or creating one for a matter that has not been discussed, and once the management reads it, they can decide to ignore it or not. It's better than voting because you can discuss everything in a post; and as I said before, it's the system we already have in place

And who (and how) would decide what is important and what it's not?

The idea itself is not bad, but there are a couple of issues with that.

The forum is a private space, with some rules that are applied to all users, with no exception. Everyone must follow forum rules, or else they get the boot. If we were to start voting on every ban/unban than happens, what criteria would voting users follow? Their own personal experience with said users? That doesn't seem imparcial at all.

Apart from that; how would you keep trolls or disposable accounts created by the person that got banned with the sole porpuse of voting to unban them away? You could have some kind of requirements, but would once again be something that excludes a certain sector of forum users.

And if those were not reason enough, the drama wars would get more bullets. I've been away from the forum for some months, and I still don't know how things are at the moment, but if we take the past as a precedent, we can get an idea of what will most likely happen. User A from a "gang" will vote something, so someone from a "rival gang" will vote against it, so then more users from As' gang will vote.... It's a neverending tale.

Summing up... The current system, altough improvable, is quite good. You either follow the rules or don't join, and theymos is our absolute ruler. If someone considers that a ban is not reasonable, they can always create a ban appeal thread, and the discussion coming from there will be the closest to a "voting" we have, altough the last word comes from a mod or admin. End of story

Hmmmm yeah, seem that it's working that way; quite odd that the paths have changed out of the blue. I tried copy pasting, but unfortunately it hasn't worked, so I guess that a ticket/feedback commentary to the development team would be appropriate?

Thanks for the fast reply btw

I've just installed and tried the Beta client after some time not using the device, and even if I must admit that it's an amazing tool and makes the interface a lot more user friendly, I've "lost" all the tags/labels I had on the web client. I haven't really lost them, but they haven't synced even if I had the same dropbox account connected... Has this been addressed before and I don't seem to find it, or is it just me having trouble with my computer?

It still amazes me that after so many months, I'm the only Spanish translator on this list... Anyway, just coming back to the forum to say thank you for the job you put in getting people from different languages together. I can also say that it's been amazing to work with you on the different projects we've shared, fast and straight communication, and faster payments!

Ah! that makes more sense... I've been kinda away from the forum but following up on mentions, and this anomally had kinda worried me. Good to know the bot is still getting updated

But shouldn't this have happened sooner? Kind of like the first time that username was mentioned

Fixed! (I think....) Thanks Lafu for the mention, I'm not logging in much to the forum these days, and I wouldn't have seen this otherwise

Pues parece que no acaba aquí la cosa. Esta tarde ma ha saltado la siguiente noticia en el navegador; y como conclusion... te tienes que reir. Por si ya hubiera pocos motivos para utilizar monederos web, que decidan poner una dirección en la lista negra porque "ha recibido muchas transacciones", es cuanto menos un motivo preocupante. Puede que haya hecho una lectura erronea del mismo, pero no deja de ser preocupante que puedan añadir cualquier dirección a una lista negra "por el bien de sus usuarios"

Parece que la cosa ha quedado casi 13BTC; no mucho teniendo en cuenta el alcance.

Lo preocupante de esto, es que al parecer el hackeo viene de una cuenta de un empleado de twitter; curiosamente las cuentas de empleado tienen el poder de publicar en cuentas ajenas, cosa que va a dar bastante de que hablar....

Me ha sorprendido sinceramente no encontrar ningun hilo reciente sobre estafas/hackeos que impliquen a famosos, pero esque directamente me estoy meando de la risa ahora que he entrado a twitter... y resulta que Elon Musk y Bill Gates han publicado un tuit sobre el ya conocido esquema de "doblador de bitcoin".

Evidentemente se trata de una estafa, y más evidentemente les habrán hackeado la cuenta, pero me hace gracia como poco que a 2 "gurus" de la tecnologia les hayan hackeado twitter tan sencillamente.....

Edit: la cuenta de Apple tambien ha caido

Edit2: aquí os dejo la dirección (una de ellas) de los hackers.... bc1qxy2kgdygjrsqtzq2n0yrf2493p83kkfjhx0wlh

En realidad.... si que el riesgo es mucho mayor. Varios informaticos han analizado la aplicacion de base (varios me he encontrado por twitter, vaya) y el comportamiento de la app es... un spyware de manual, que además oculta todo lo que realmente recaba. A ver si encuentro alguno de los hilos, ya que me sorprendio (en realidad no mucho) que fuese algo tan exagerado en comparación con el resto de apps que uno se puede llegar a instalar.

Encontrado! (en realidad son capturas a reddit, pero bue)


De ser realmente necesario... siempre puedes comprar el cable adaptador micro usb a micro usb (o C) y conectar tu Ledger al movil para hacer las operaciones de la forma más segura posible. Si no; una hot wallet con los suficientes pocos fondos que no te importe que alguien se pase de listo y te los quite. No hay mucha más alternativa

Pues no la plataforma como tal, sino que el conjunto de usuarios de las mismas. Una especie de reglas no escritas

Incluso dentro de las propias redes sociales (sin cambiar el formato a foro, que no se como de RRSS es), cada una cumple con una finalidad distinta y se utilizan de manera distinta entre si. Por ejemplo, Instagram está más enfocado en lo visual, mientras que Twitter en el texto. Incluso por el modo en el que se usan estas plataformas, puedes saber cual es la "nativa" de cada persona (gente de instagram en twitter, gente de twitter en instagram). Claro que esto es solamente la comparación "facil", pero no creo que por ello menos efectiva. Imgur es otra plataforma para lo visual, reddit para texto, 4chan para....cosas turbias y una larga lista que puede seguir y no merece la pena profundizar

Para rematar, me gustaria pediros que os corteis un poco/analiceis algunas de las cosas que dejais por escrito... he leido ya varios post que caen en el prototipo de "señor 40+ quejandose de los jovenes y como usan la tecnología". No lo digo por nadie en especial, pero un poco de analisis tampoco hace daño

Can you provide any more information apart from that? I don't really think people know what Code 26 stands for, so please, provide a detailed explanation of whatever error you are experiencing, and we may come out wjith some solution to it

Not really sure about what happened and the exact dates, but franckuestein is no longer a part os the staff (inactivity IIRC). Welsh has taken over the Spanish moderation ever since

No creo que sean datos muy precisos, ya que el muestreo es de justo 7 dias, y admitamoslo, no es que sea un numero excesivamente elevado.... Sin embargo, durante la semana que estuve en la campaña de 777coin, existia la posibilidad de añadir el codigo de referido a la firma de uno. Durante esos 7 días, consegui 8 registros utilizando la firma. Ninguno ha llegado a utilizar la pagina y no tengo forma de saber cuantas personas han pinchado el enlace. No es un mal numero, pero es mejorable (a nivel individual, a la empresa le va que ni pintado).

Hay un hilo que se va actualizando con todos los movimientos en las campañas de firmas del foro; apertura de plazas, cierres, ceses, nuevas campañas.... te lo dejo aquí

Reapplying!

The comparison might not be the best; but I'll try it anyway.

The website calculates the signature and the message, and produces an address, if they match, the signature is verified; if it doesn't, then it can't verify the signature. In the event of you not providing an address for said message, the website will show you what is has calculated.

In simpler terms (comparison): You use a website to verify that the result you have on the square root of 4. the website calculates the sqrt of 4, and if you input the value of 2; it will verify it. If you input (for example) 7, it will fail to verify. And if you leave it blank, it will show the right answer, in this case, 2.

But there is more than 1 correct answer to this! In the example I provided, both 2 and -2 are the right answer, and not only 2. The example website, only displays positive value numbers (+2), and doesn't work with negatives (-2). The website you've used to verify the signature works similarly; it does support Legacy addresses (1....) but doesn't support Segwit addresses (bc.../3...).

That's why it will always show a result for whatever signature+message you input, and it will always be shown as a Legacy address
