861  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trying to find advice and info about selling BTC on: November 04, 2023, 06:16:37 PM
Hello, I am trying to figure out a good reputable place or platforms to look for a buyer/buyers for a very large amount of bitcoin.
Basically, I have a holder of Bitcoin wanting to sell. They have roughly 392,000 BTC, and invested very early and held on to it.
Any advice or recommendations would be very much appreciated.
For the kind of money involved, exchanging crypto to fiat would attract alot of attention to your...

If I were you I would consider exchanging the Bitcoin for a stable coin as this is fiat equivalent and if you are using the dollar currency you don't loss or gain on the exchange rate.

Just out of curiosity, the platform you used to buy these Bitcoins don't they happen to buyback coins for fiat Roll Eyes

Bloody hell, Haaland got a knock. Everyone's in shambles now, except for the 3 people who captained Salah.  Cry
In a goal thriller like this one that saw 7 goals in the match & Haaland who is expected to be on the scoresheet is nowhere to be seen, unbelievable and to make matters worse had him as my captain only to secure 2 points when doubled WTF Tongue

Considering we still talking about Manchester City, anybody know many points Doku got with that brilliant performance and Man of the Match  Tongue
Do FPL managers even own this lad with that city rotation  in our minds  Roll Eyes

Sam Bankman has set an example for anyone having intentions of scamming using exchanges and what not to know what awaits them, sad for Sam but good precedent to protect crypto users.

hope this teaches other dodgy CEX's a large lesson
When it comes to the USA, we all know that very few companies can survive their regulations which is why many companies avoid this market!!

As of the dodgy CEOs  , if not operating in the USA I honestly don't see them being prosecuted for their wrong doing as the jurisdictions they operate in have porous regulations AFAIK!

866  Economy / Gambling / Re: Betfury will not pay the promised bounty for bugs found on: November 04, 2023, 11:41:23 AM
Being a bug bounty hunter for gambling casinos is like being a bounty hunter on this forum, some casinos can't be trusted to keep to their word, same way some projects end up not paying their bounty hunters after they have spent weeks promoting the project on the forum and outside the forum.
I have been a bounty hunter, and AFAIK some projects took long to pay because marketing came first , then the sale, and then came the minting of coins depending on the sale and lastly the distribution and most hunters didn't understand this process and wanted to be paid upon the end of the bounty campaign but token sale was not concluded.

But with bug hunting,  these actually need to be treated with the urgency they deserve and seeing they have a dedicated email for such means someone is ready to look into such matters but if they dont honor their side of the deal shows how dishonest they are...besides the least they can do is acknowledge receiving the report to avoid such scam accusations.

Sorry to say this though, but with all the complains I've read online about companies refusing to pay bug bounty hunters what they promise to pay, if I was or were a bug bounty hunter, I did first exploit whatever bug I came across on any casino, I will do this and then after, contact the casino about it, I will decide how much to return back to them, and keep the rest of the funds as my bug bounty payment.
Whitehat hacker, whichever way you look at it you doing a great service for the project as they will nolonger be exploited.

Lost in the whirlwind world of day trading? It often feels like a maze with big folks and their flashy tools, leaving us hoping for a stroke of luck. Imagine ditching the tricky charts for a simple, real coin flip, person vs person, with a fair 50/50 chance. No gimmicks, no house edge, just a clear, honest game.

What’s your take? Does day trading seem more of a gamble compared to a straight-up coin flip
Am not the person that enjoys games which are 50/50!
What happens when you are on a losing streak, as a losing streak is very much possible in a fair 50/50 game ..for example a game of Roulette betting on the Red or Black or the flip game as you have said can also expose you to a string of loses and swipe your bank roll clean!!

For me I would rather take my chances with charts as I can make my own luck here!!

Otherwise trurth of the matter here both have some risk and its about playing what you can afford to lose Smiley
868  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Will it affect you in any way if Binance completely shuts down ? on: November 04, 2023, 09:04:38 AM
Binance is not at the top by accident!! These guys have gone into markets others exchanges dare not to cross and have a large footprint in onboarding users into the world of crypto and made huge collaborations of influencers such as Cristiano Ronaldo that have given crypto some exposure...

Now, if we think of Binance going down, expect the markets to go down as the uncertainty of other exchanges will be affected and panic selling is expected till markets normalize!! Otherwise as much as we hate centralization,  Binance going down is a double aged sword that will hate markets and needs not to go down imo.

Leeds eh? Guess the streak had to stop at some point but why today?  Grin Grin Grin
Started off with a good run in this round not until the Friday games came through and Leicester who were thought to be hot favorites playing at home were humbled with a respectable 1 nil and the Foxes didn't have an answer for this.
And Surprisingly in the form Leicester are in, didn't expect to see some NOs on the spreadsheet  to be honest,  the competition just proves diverse views will always be there  Cool

Great job to all those that got this one Smiley

As much as SEC has the interest of potential and current investors as a primary duty, if they are not approving the ETF on grounds of investors not understand what these crypto assets are all about, hasn't ample time passed ever since this was brought before them and investors are educated enough by now  Huh Are they protecting their interests with the rumoured centralised coin about to hit the markets hence trying by all means BTC ETF fail Roll Eyes

Today the SEC meeting is scheduled and bitcoin's price surged past $35.5k on the speculation they might announce an approval to one of the applications:

In the world of fiat thought PayPal were bad , but even if they hit you with suspicious  transaction checks atleast they give user back your funds and deny you further access just to have a win win situation.

But with our crypto exchanges, it's a whole different story as this always turns out to be some kind of hijack and hide behind their terms and conditions to justify their action's...but as a user whose caught up in this ,best option is to give them what they want and once your account is in the clear withdraw and never go back to such jokers!!!

Just hope this is some "shotgun KYC" or "ToS-scam" as eXch calls it
876  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: First bull run - how to not sell too early? on: November 01, 2023, 10:28:07 PM
When I got into the world of Bitcoin and the buying and selling of this asset, knowing when to buy and when to sell were some of the things I struggled with as it was all guess work not until I was forced to learn charting skills because the more experienced users explained the best price to take profit and when to sell using chart's and it was at this point when my interest for chart's grew.

So for those waiting to experience their first bull,use chart's to pick out at what price you will be selling/buying and use skill to do this and not guess work. Otherwise back then making profits was so much easier as Bitcoin was still that unexplored asset.
877  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Still A P2P Electronic Cash System ?. on: November 01, 2023, 09:44:59 PM
As much as we want to stick to Bitcoins original purpose, unfortunately it's users will pretty much determine how best it can serve them and remain relevant!!!
Btw, If we are going to talk about Bitcoins p2p intentions originating from the whitepaper, then we might as well unfork whatever has been done to Bitcoins all in the name of originality !!

Besides, alot of factors have influenced the change of course of our cryptocurrencies such as regulation which was over looked ,and crypto is adapting to the change .
878  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is this fascination with claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto? on: November 01, 2023, 06:38:32 PM
Can't remember any of those names as time has passed but one name that stands out because of the extra length his gone trying to take that name/title is Craig Wright.

But why are they obsessed with claiming the name:
  • There is money to be made out there, interview sitdowns will pay for exclusives
  • Biography sales
  • Projects could get him as an advisor, list is endless

But of course it's all for selfish reasons of which the real Satoshi disappeared for the very same reasons.

If there is one thing I have realised over the years is that some of the services that look legit to most of us, do actual sell our data to third parties because most of the time after signing up for a service...spam folder tends to get or kinds of junk mail which is why I have dedicated email addresses for all kinds of business to avoid cheap phishing attacks and spam in general.

Otherwise OP thanks for the heads up , and am pretty sure scammers will be busy all season long as the festive season is around the corner trying to find someone  that falls for their cheap traps Cool
880  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: "change password frequently" on: November 01, 2023, 04:03:01 PM
It's one of recommended security measures but I find it stupid. Imo, as long as your original password is strong enough, you do not need look at it ever again.


What's your opinion on this security measure?
The problem is never the strong passwords because from your side security can be airtight and all the basics of ensuring that no unauthorised person gets access to your stuff can be put in place like no clicking unknown clicks, no use of VPNs, use a device strictly for x purposes etc, but the problem comes in when you use password managers which history has shown that they do get hacked and data leaks out, it could be a database breach which is another reason why we are advised to change passwords regularly as this information isn't always shared with its users which is why it's good practice to just change passwords regularly Smiley

Do you change your passwords often? If no, have you been hacked?
Was never a fan of changing passwords , not until someone tried to ghost me with a loan in my name, and ever since I try to give myself a surviving chance against such by changing passwords..
