I think the question is why not? The 3 different IP logins is an enough proof that you should be doing "everything" you can to secure your account.
Layered security is always recommended so that if A got bypassed, you've still got other protectors (B,C etc..).

"Hi Joseph
-the bitcoin were credited to the seller's escrow and were bought by somebody else. The best that we can do is ask them to return the money. We are still awaiting a response from them.
-Chad
Thanks for using BitQuick!" Seller's escrow? Isn't that them? Or is it a third party? Hmmm...But they just said on their previous reply "one of our addresses". Anyway if the escrow is really not them then this matter is out of their hands. And by the way, the organization has no phone support of any kind nor any contact information other than a support email address. Try your luck on their social media sites |

There are a lot of online tools if you search for it-- even a simple "reduce image size" will bring out lots of results but please do note that this will reduce the image quality. I just did it and here's the result: https://imgur.com/a/2B88tLlBut honestly this shouldn't be your job, so you should also give them a heads up about this. |

Yes, this helps a lot. But is it safe if I only use keystore file to access MEW? I heard that the issue is not yet resolved regarding the hacking or something in the server of MEW? I believe that matter has been solved already (Check MEW's reddit--focus on the mods), then again it is still recommended to run it locally: https://github.com/kvhnuke/etherwallet/releases. Also consider buying a hardware wallet  |

You could try your luck on bountyhive although I'm not sure if they're accepting newbies but it says none of that sort on the rules and guidelines. I just confirmed with one of their staffs that a previous work/portfolio is not a prerequisite to be accepted. And yeah, it seems a couple of jr. members with no prior experience had already given a chance. You can reach them on telegram, they're active there: https://t.me/bountyhive |

To be fair, i doubt any Google employee have any knowledge about Cryptocurrency and it's services. So it's obvious they wouldn't know whether the advertised website/product is scam or not.
But they're banning cryptocurrency-related ads so there's no way that none of their staffs had no knowledge about it. And actually, bitcoin or not, cryptocurrency or not, the process of determining if something's a scam/phishing should be fundamentally the same. Sadly, same as the guy above, I believe the screening is not done manually but yeah there should be some special cases. But i think the real reason is they don't want let their user enjoy decentralized system (which is opposite of their service) or/and don't care whether the advertised website/product is scam or not
Could be, since they are getting a lot of money through this ads. Up until now google still continues to ban bad ads/publishers and change their policies as it's their way of countering this, although I believe that there should be something more they can do aside from that. At any rate, If someone have been a victim of this, he shouldn't blame google entirely since he's also at fault for not paying attention and blind trust is always a NO NO |

So OTC is an altcoin?? and you want to create an exchange. If so, you better consult a lawyer rather than asking here, since you'll be able to get a clearer answer that way. And I think it depends per place where you want your service to be available to...

I don't like the fact that you can't see any content on this platform, unless you register and log in. I might register if I could see what kind of "Cryptocurrency news and market trends" are available and if they are useful or not.
Is anyone already using coinsmarketbook and can share some feedback with us?
I think it's a strategy LOL, for users to create an account. Anyhow, It looks a lot like twitter, except for the cryptocurrency theme. As for the content, there's nothing special about it, you could also find similar ones on twitter. I don't really mind another platform but if there's nothing special about it (something different from the others that makes it special), then I probably won't stick with it. |

Watch the tutorials on their site https://www.bitquick.co/how-to. According to it, you really do have to deposit the physical cash yourself  . SO The trick is to not go to bank on Sundays or when it's closed LOL. just clear up some of your sched and plan the said thing. Anyway, you could use another site with a wide variety of payment methods, like what you've said, localbitcoins, or you can also look here: Currency exchange |

Hmmm... How about resetting your router? as I believe you are using a dynamic not static. Also, Contacting your ISP again seems a good shot, as I do think that as a customer, you have the right to complain.
Regarding on getting ahold of their support, Have you also tried to drop a message on their social media site(s)? and maybe they do have an account here.

Waste of time if you want to use it for legit purposes. But I can hardly think of a scam employing this scheme, where is the potential profit? Traffic? It won't be much/ Something else? I'm puzzled.
The profit part is where they claim to "sell" the private key of an address containing 223 BTC for 0.01 BTC (or any other address containing BTC if one is found). Doesn't seem to be much else on the page besides that. I hope people don't fall for scams like this, but some people must've gotten scammed already by this. LOL really? I mean, would anyone be so dumb to believe they will be given, say, 223 BTC if they pay 0.01? This is even dumber than Nigerian scams  You may find it hard to believe but there are definitely people like that out there. Take a look at the news or search on the internet---or here on forum, people falling for obvious scams are not that rare. |

Mind explaining first, how do they determine if a certain person should be trusted or not??.. Because you can't just expect people to blindly trust someone just because they are listed as "trusted" on a newly created site particularly.
Sites like these are helpful when gathering data to come up with a conclusion but I'm also seeing some people who completely relies on them which is wrong, you gotta do the background checking properly.

1) I have a hardware wallet but I didn't carry any coins on it since I thought the service was blockchain.info safe
Well wrong move, be sure to use it now 2) What is the problem to write on the main page blockchain.info - WE are NOT RESPONSIBLE for anything
3) I asked to help me get the coins back or to understand why they were stolen, and not to write tips on what to do with education.
Bitcoin transactions are irreversible, so once confirm, it's impossible to get it back unless the person who receives them wants it to. Most importantly, you agreed to their termsThis was 2014 and I don't believe that there is a 100% secure way of storing your funds since the user itself make his own funds secure for the most part |

I haven't used this one but going through its reviews, you won't think that it is, although please note that there are still scam complaints/poor reviews like every other exchange. Aside from bittrex, I'm still using those exchanges which has tons of scam complaints but only with small amounts and so far trades are smooth. That said, I think you should be fine as long as you'll trade in small amounts as exchanges are flagging accounts with high amount of money. Also, You can check a certain coin's status here: https://tradesatoshi.com/Status |

Hi , I don't have the 12 word recovery phase. I am 💯% sure that identifier and password is correct . Even when I am entering the details and trying to login , I get the approval mail. After Clicking it ,I get the SMS code on my phone. I enter the code and try to login. I get the Error Decrypting error msg. There is something wrong on the Block chain.info side. Hmmm.. Then try the following--- although I can't guarantee anything - Clear your browser's cache and cookies
- Reboot your internet router
- Try logging in through a: different browser; the app; different device
- And yeah, don't use tor/vpn
Figured you might wanna take a look at this: Blockchain info | error decrypting wallet - check your password, similar problem as yours. SO the guy basically solved his problem by logging in from time to time. |

I have no means of proving if your statement is true or not but take note that their so called "reputation" doesn't guarantee anything. This reputation is earned through their past achievements, it doesn't decide that the future will always be like that. If I have to word it, it is more like an "expectation"
Ultimately, It is too good to be true and I don't trust such things. Up until now I still don't believe that there is a 100% safe way of storing your coins because even a .0001% chance could always turn the tables.
What minerHQ said is true, Xapo is a third party service provider. Seriously, Would you rather trust these strangers than yourself? SO yes better pick a type of wallet that allows you to fully control your funds.

I've also use this exchange sometimes whenever I want to sell some small amount of Bitcoins directly to my bank account, but I still don't fully trust them even they have better exchange rate compared to coins.ph. It is surprising that they also supported numerous cryptocurrency after they added Ethereum recently, but the problem here is you cannot send any funds on those wallets, they only provide Bitcoin address where you can transfer your funds. So you still need to sell your coins for Bitcoin to be able to use this exchange. For example you have Litecoin in your other wallet or exchange, you can't send it to Abra directly because they will not provide any Litecoin address for you, what you can do is fund your Bitcoin address (abra) then you can exchange that for those coins that they added but this is also questionable because you will never know if you really bought a specific coin since there is no address and blockchain record that is being provided.
It's fine since there's still a record of your deposit in block explorer's. But hey it's obvious that they don't have a wallet for their coins except bitcoin since you have to do the same process in withdrawing so they are just IOU's. On a side note, this could just be another strategy to force users to use their exchange hmm... Anyway, Since they are operating in the PH, I'm guessing they are regulated by their government? Or not? I give this wallet a try, it is the first time I hear about this wallet. I installed it in my Iphone 7+ and it is looking great, security is like decent wallets with passphrase and pin plus the phone number.
A little warning about their recovery phrase/passphrase, you can't use it in any wallet other than abra. It's a 13-word that always starts at "At" Errrrr...... |

When you die, your family will either keep or throw your things but the most important part is they will definitely look into it. So maybe... you can just buy/make a notebook stating that your cryptocurrencies will go to the following person/s (with instructions included), but the problem is they might not view it's content so better buy a small vault that uses keys since it will give them the idea that everything in there is "important" Lastly, I'm sure you know that these coins are volatile so better not rely on them too much cause the situation after a long time maybe not be great |
