A Bitcoin wallet is necessary for storing private and public keys, which are used to send and receive transactions.
Different types of wallets offer varying levels of security and ease of use.

Now! My Questions goes like; How many types of wallet do you know best to your understanding and explain how you know them.
have you heard of HOT WALLET, COLD WALLET, BRAIN WALLET, PAPPER WALLET, HARDWARE WALLET & SOFTWARE WALLECT. All of these wallets can be confusing to a newbie and how can we explain to them, and you as a pro. How well do you know some of these wallets listed above and how they operate.

The following are some of the major advantages of using Bitcoin versus other currency systems: this makes bitcoin different from other currency or network assets which investors are liable to panics and scams victimization but the advantages of bitcoin below may need argues or contribution from your end.

1. No Third-Party Seizure
Since there are multiple redundant copies of the transactions database, no one can seize bitcoins. The most someone can do is force the user, by other means, to send the the bitcoins to someone else. This means that governments can’t freeze someone’s wealth, and thus users of Bitcoins will have complete freedom to do anything they want with their money.

2. No Taxes
There is no way for a third party to intercept transactions of Bitcoins, and therefore there is no viable way to implement a Bitcoin taxation system. The only way to pay a tax would be, if someone voluntarily sends a percentage of the amount being sent as tax.

3. No Tracking
Unless users publicize their wallet addresses publicly, no one can trace transactions back to them. No one, other than the wallet owners, will know how many Bitcoins they have. Even if the wallet address was publicized, a new wallet address can be easily generated. This greatly increases privacy when compared to traditional currency systems, where third parties potentially have access to personal financial data.

4. No Transaction Costs
Sending and receiving Bitcoins requires users to keep the Bitcoin client running and connected to other nodes. Essentially, by using bitcoins users will be contributing to the network, and thus sharing the burden of authorizing transactions. Sharing this work greatly reduces transaction costs, and thus makes transaction costs negligible.

5. No Risk of “Charge-backs”
Once Bitcoins are sent, the transaction cannot be reversed. Since the ownership address of Bitcoins will be changed to the new owner, once it is changed, it is impossible to revert. Since only the new owner has the associated private key, only he/she can change ownership of the coins. This ensures that there is no risk involved when receiving Bitcoins.

6. Bitcoins Cannot be Stolen
Bitcoins’ ownership address can only be changed by the owner. No one can steal Bitcoins unless they have physical access to a user’s computer, and they send the bitcoins to their account. Unlike convential currency systems, where only a few authentication details are required to gain access to finances, this system requires physical access, which makes it much harder to steal.

I think there's a reason why this user doesn't got banned yet, because you and one other user have reported his few posts for many times.

1. Incorrect original source
2. Incorrect original source
3. Bad quotation
4. Incorrect original source
5. And the recent one you posted fall to incorrect original source

The moderators might think he have no intention to plagiarism because he have wrote https:... which is he show if he was copy pasted from somewhere. For the case 3 he have mentioned according to, so he have let anyone know if it's not come from his words.

Maybe if there's a post where he not mention anything related to original source, he will get banned, just like how the above newbie user got banned.

Many newbies do not understand why their wallet can't be verified or what could be the problem after successfully creating account of cryptocurrency but most at times it could improper KYC verification as explains below.

* Submitting wrong ID: if the ID uploaded is not in the list of I'd cards in your region, you kyc will not pass.

* Incorrect ID choice: If you upload another ID that is different from the I'd type selected, though Valid, your kyc will not pass. Eg, you select international passport but uploaded driver's license. Also, always try to capture picture of original document. Zerox won't work

* Incomplete information: Say your id has two sides of information and only uploaded one side. Or any mismatch of data!

* Name Mismatch: if the name on your ID doesn't tally with the name on your Pi app. Your kyc will not pass. Apply for correction of name. Only minor correction can be accepted.

* Blur ID & Unclear Photo: if your ID is blur while taking a photograph of it or your face capturing isn't clear enough. Your kyc will not pass.

Additionally, while this upcoming game between Manchester City and Arsenal is certainly important, it is not the only determining factor in who will win the league title. There are many other games that both teams will need to win in order to secure the trophy they have been working so hard for all season.

Finally, it is unlikely that Manchester City would intentionally concede to Arsenal in order to focus on bigger competitions. As a highly competitive team, Manchester City is always striving to win every game they play, and they will not compromise their performance in order to prioritize other competitions.

BOT REPLY:

https://loyce.club/archive/posts/6214/62142536.html

Make a perfect reply to this: ester City is now more advantageous than Arsenal in securing the the league title. Two outstanding matches means 6 points in view and automatic 1 point difference ahead of Arsenal. This game between both teams should matter so much to Arsenal if they must take the trophy the have laboured so hard for since the start of the season. Has it stand Garduolla has three cups in front of him so if Arsenal can give good pressure to the home team they might concede to Arsenal so they focus more on the bigger competition.

While it is true that Manchester City is currently in a more advantageous position than Arsenal in terms of securing the league title, it is important to remember that there are still several games left to play. While Manchester City may have two outstanding matches that could result in a one-point lead over Arsenal, there are still many factors at play that could impact the final outcome of the league.

Additionally, while this upcoming game between Manchester City and Arsenal is certainly important, it is not the only determining factor in who will win the league title.

1. Protection From Payment Fraud

Bitcoins are digital currencies. It uses an algorithm and cryptographic protocols. This makes them impossible to counterfeit.

2. Reduced Possibility of Identity Theft

Bitcoin transactions are completely anonymous. Bitcoin transactions do not require personal details or any sensitive information from either sender or receiver.

It helps prevent identity theft. Credit cards or debit cards use a pull mechanism where they request your credentials and initiate a payment then pull an amount from your account.

Bitcoins use a push mechanism where you initiate the payment and can send any amount to the receiver.

3. Immediate Settlement

Bitcoin does not involve a third party to facilitate the transactions. Funds are settled immediately and once initiated cannot be put on hold or can be refunded.

4. Direct Transfer

Transactions directly take place between users that is the sender and receiver. No third party involved there. Thus, it eliminates the fees for involving an intermediary.

5. Greater Liquidity

This user is using AI to write short sentence spam. And he is trying to claim my code in the process:

Profile: GHOST Buster (I guess that username is fitting)

I suggest using a more efficient way to generate the downscaled public keys by utilizing the add and double operations of elliptic curve cryptography. Here is a modified version of the shiftdown function:

Code:

def shiftdown(pubkey, divisor, file, convert=True):
    Q = pub2point(pubkey) if convert else pubkey
    # k = 1/divisor
    k = pow(divisor, N - 2, N)
    R = Point.identity(curve=curve.secp256k1)
    for i in range(divisor):
        R += Q # Equivalent to subtracting (divisor - i) * G
        P = k * R
        if (P.y % 2 == 0):
            prefix = "02"
        else:
            prefix = "03"
        hx = hex(P.x)[2:].zfill(64)
        hy = hex(P.y)[2:].zfill(64)
        file.write(prefix+ " " + hx+"\n") # Writes compressed key to file
    file.write("\n") # Writes compressed key to file

This modified version adds the public key Q to a running variable R, which is initially the identity element. On each loop iteration, R is incremented by Q using the add operation, which is much faster than subtracting a multiple of G. Then, the public key P is computed by multiplying R by the inverse of the divisor modulo N, using the pow function. Finally, P is written to the output file in compressed form, as before. This algorithm has a time complexity of O(divisor), which is much faster than the original algorithm's O(divisor^2) time complexity.

Here is no magic, here is script to shiftdown pubkey:

Divisor is 2^3, so new upper range is 2^7-2^3=2^4
In file pub.txt you will find all pubkeys and their number is equil to divisor.
if you try to find all this keys in range 0x1:0xf you will see that only one pubkey will be lie in range
And this pubkey is 03d01115d548e7561b15c38f004d734633687cf4419620095bc5b0f47070afe85a with privkey 0xC
To produce real privkey need multiply privkey by divisor
0xC*0x8 = 0x60
After this need add to result founded public key number (7)
Totaly privekey = 0x60 +0x7=0x67

Hi Eter,
It is possible to automatically printed output number of decimal; which are reduced.

I don't know if code falls into the category of plagiarism, and I did not explicitly put a license like Modified-BSD that prevents people from claiming others' work as own, but this is very scumbag behavior.

But the explanation of the code is also wrong, so it should be removed immediately regardless

[Solosanz]

P.S. What exactly do you mean by "Bad quotation"?

I meant he should put a quoting mark ["] of the sentence that not come from himself or better solution he should use quote tag.

Bitcoin is the form of currency that aims to estimate the needs for central authorities such as banks or government .instead, bitcoin uses blockchain technology to support peer to peer transactions between users on a decentralize network.
Transaction are authenticated through bitcoin proof of work consensus mechanism,which rewards cryptocurrency miners for validating transactions.

Bitcoin started with earlier server that let users utilized personal CPU's for mining. The first block header hash secure (a linkage between previous and current block) was computed using a conventional CPU's of a computer, the Intel core i7 990x to be precise which was efficient enough to calculate at 33 MH/s. CPU's users are first of it kind mining processor before others software applications for mining came into the picture.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction 2023
Bitcoin, according to some, is one of the most amazing cryptocurrencies to rise this year (BTC). The BTC price forecast for 2023 anticipates a significant increase in the year’s second half, possibly reaching $44,338.29.

As with other cryptocurrencies, the rise will be gradual, but no considerable drops are expected. Averaging $41,382.40 in price is quite ambitious, but it is feasible in the near future given anticipated collaborations and advancements. BTC is expected to have a minimum value of $35,470.63.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction 2024
In 2024, Bitcoin BTC price prediction has much room for expansion. As a result of the potential announcements of numerous new partnerships and initiatives, we anticipate that the price of BTC will soon surpass $73,897.15. However, we should wait to see if the BTC’s relative strength index comes out of the oversold zone before placing any bullish bets.

Considering the market volatility, BTC will trade with a minimum trading price of $59,117.72 and an average trading price of $65,029.49.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction 2023
Bitcoin, according to some, is one of the most amazing cryptocurrencies to rise this year (BTC). The BTC price forecast for 2023 anticipates a significant increase in the year’s second half, possibly reaching $44,260.91.

As with other cryptocurrencies, the rise will be gradual, but no considerable drops are expected. Averaging $41,310.19 in price is quite ambitious, but it is feasible in the near future given anticipated collaborations and advancements. BTC is expected to have a minimum value of $35,408.73.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction 2024
In 2024, Bitcoin BTC price prediction has much room for expansion. As a result of the potential announcements of numerous new partnerships and initiatives, we anticipate that the price of BTC will soon surpass $73,768.19. However, we should wait to see if the BTC’s relative strength index comes out of the oversold zone before placing any bullish bets.

Considering the market volatility, BTC will trade with a minimum trading price of $59,014.55 and an average trading price of $64,916.01.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction 2025
If the upward trend continues until 2025, it could reach $103,275.47 and BTC may profit. If the market experiences a decline, the goal may not be met. BTC is expected to trade at an average price of $94,423.28 and a low of $88,521.83 in 2025.

Metaphor: Cryptocurrency is a bit like online banking without a central bank. It is software-based, like an online banking platform. There is a ledger (called a blockchain), balances, and account numbers. You access your balances by using a password and can make transactions this way. Just like with online banking, yu don’t need to know how it works under the hood to use it.

What is Cryptocurrency? Cryptocurrency is a type of digital asset that typically functions as a currency. The system that makes a cryptocurrency possible is based on cryptography (“crypto”) and a cryptocurrency is meant to be used as a currency (“currency”). With that in mind, not every digital crypto asset is meant to be used as a currency like the popular cryptocurrency Bitcoin is. For example, Ethereum is a decentralized application platform and the main use case of the cryptocurrency Ether is to pay transaction costs on the Ethereum network.

What is Bitcoin? Bitcoin is a software file stored on computers across the world that acts as a ledger of financial transactions called a “blockchain.” The ledger contains account numbers called “public addresses” associated with balances of Bitcoin. People can move around balances of Bitcoin if they have the passwords (or “private keys”) to those accounts using software called a “cryptocurrency wallet” (see description below). Bitcoin is the name of both this system and its unit of the currency. You can phrase it like this, “balances of Bitcoin tokens are moved around on the Bitcoin blockchain by creating transactions in Bitcoin wallets.”

What is Blockchain? Technically Blockchain is first and foremost a database protocol (a set of rules) for sorting data into “blocks,” but it’s easier to think of a Blockchain as a type of database. Essentially, it is a spreadsheet where data is stored in cells (or “blocks”) that are linked together in order by cryptographic codes called “hashes.” This database is generally decentralized and distributed on many computers instead of being stored in one central location or managed by one central entity. In Bitcoin, blockchain is generally used to describe both the public ledger where all transaction data is stored and technology (the protocol) behind the ledger. Many who aren’t believers in Bitcoin as a currency / digital asset are supporters of blockchain technology and its many applications both within finance and beyond.

On Being Decentralized and Distributed. Instead of Bitcoin being hosted on one computer or one company’s computers, Bitcoin is hosted on many computers by many different entities (it is distributed). Meanwhile, everything is either done democratically or is controlled by algorithms, so there isn’t a need for a “centralized” middle-man like a bank or government (it is decentralized). Bitcoin’s blockchain is in this sense both decentralized and distributed.

How is Cryptocurrency Different From Fiat Currency? Fiat currency, like the U.S. dollar, is controlled by central banks and controlled by states. It is legal tender and you can pay your taxes with it. Cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, isn’t controlled by a central entity… but it isn’t legal tender and you can’t pay your taxes with it. Otherwise, both fiat currencies and crypto currencies act as mediums of exchange and stores of value. With that in mind, some argue that cryptocurrency is a digital asset with exchange value, but not a true currency.

Can I buy things with Cryptocurrency? Cryptocurrency can be used as a payment method for any good or service that accepts cryptocurrency. The most common cryptocurrency used as payment is Bitcoin. As time goes on, accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as payment is becoming more common. Check out a list of things you can buy with Bitcoin.

What are the Benefits of Using Cryptocurrency as a payment method? There are a number of benefits of cryptocurrency as a payment method. The main benefits of cryptocurrency in this sense are the often low transaction costs and quick transaction fees compared to other payment systems. On a good day, cryptocurrency is the quickest and cheapest way to send money around the globe (XRP is a great example of this). Cryptocurrency is also an easy way to make payments online, especially for peer-to-peer transactions. Another big benefit is that cryptocurrency doesn’t require trust, which removes potential worry for both the sending and receiving party. Meanwhile, for some people in some states, cryptocurrency can act as an alternative to a states’ currency (which can be good if that currency is suffering from rapid inflation for example).

How do I Buy / Sell Cryptocurrency? One can buy and sell cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin via online brokers or exchanges like Coinbase or GDAX. Exchanges are like digital stock exchanges, but for cryptocurrencies. Learn how to trade cryptocurrency or check out our cryptocurrency investing starter kit.

Is Cryptocurrency Legal? In general, cryptocurrency is legal in every respect in the U.S. and much of the world. The only rules of thumb are 1. you have to pay taxes on it and 2. anything that would be illegal otherwise is also illegal with cryptocurrency.

Is Cryptocurrency Taxable in the U.S.? Cryptocurrency is taxed as an investment property, which means you have to tally profits and losses at the current market value of a cryptocurrency when you sell it, use it, or trade it and then pay the capital gains tax on profits in a calendar year. Please take time to learn about the tax implications of cryptocurrency.

What is an ICO? An ICO is an initial coin offering, a way for a new coin to raise money by offering a pre-sale of an up-and-coming token. ICOs are controversial. On one hand, some ICOs have been scams, on the other hand, some states have worried that ICOs are mimicking securities without following the securities rules. One should do extra research before participating in an ICO.

What is a token? Token is a word that has a few different meanings in cryptocurrency. In simple terms, it just describes a cryptocurrency and its unit of value (a cryptocurrency = a token). For example, one could say “I have 10 Bitcoin tokens.” The term is also sometimes used to describe cryptocurrencies existing on other coin’s networks. For example, the KIN ICO is a token on the Ethereum network. Lastly, encrypted bits of data that don’t contain identifying information are also called “tokens,” this type of token is also used in cryptocurrencies. In other words, what the term means depends on context.

How Do Transactions Work? Software called a cryptocurrency wallet (see below) is used in conjunction with an account number and password (technically public address and private key). The private key (known only to its owner, like a password) is used to create a signature that allows the owner to move around funds on the blockchain. Transactions are then secured on the blockchain in sequential blocks by “miners” (see the next section). Almost all cryptocurrencies work like this.

How Do I Store Cryptocurrency? In overly simple terms, you essentially “store” cryptocurrency in cryptocurrency wallets (see the next point for the technical details). For long term, you’ll likely want a “cold wallet”(where you store your private keys offline). For short term use, you might use a range of options or even temporarily keep funds on an exchange (but be careful, if it is connected to the internet, it is a “hot target”).

What is a Cryptocurrency Wallet? A wallet can be thought of as software that allows one to store cryptocurrency and create cryptocurrency transactions. This is a simple way to think of a wallet even though cryptocurrency isn’t technically stored in a wallet (instead public addresses are associated with transactions recorded on the blockchain, and thus are associated with balances, which the wallet software can read and display for you). More technically, a wallet is software that allows you to store your private keys, view balances associated with public addresses, and create and sign outgoing transactions. With that noted, one must differentiate between wallets where you control your private keys (like the Bitcoin Core wallet), and custodial wallets where third parties host the wallet for you and are in control of the private keys (like the wallets on Coinbase or GDAX).

What is a Node? Since cryptocurrency is distributed many computers around the world have to run the software. Any computer running a copy of the software is “a node.” A full node runs a full copy of the blockchain.

How are New coins Created? When a transaction is created in a wallet it is broadcast to everyone in the Bitcoin network. For that transaction to be added to the ledger, users running mining software must solve cryptographic puzzles that let them add a block of transactions to the blockchain. The reward for adding a block is newly minted cryptocurrency. Thus “mining” is cracking puzzles to play digital accountant, and new coins are minted as rewards for mining transaction blocks.

How is Bitcoin Secure? Bitcoin is secure for two main reasons. 1. It uses a lot of one-way encryption that makes everything that is encrypted next to impossible to hack (it requires a ton of work). 2. It is distributed and so there is no central software to hack.

How does the cryptography aspect of Bitcoin work? At the core of Bitcoin, in terms of cryptography, is cryptographic hash functions. Key concepts include public-key cryptography and proof-of-work functions. If you want a crash course in the cryptography behind those terms, clicks those links and try reading the Bitcoin white paper: Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.

What Happens If I Lose My Keys or if Someone Steals My Cryptocurrency? If you lose your private key, you lose access to the balances associated with it. If someone gets access to your crypto and they steal it, there is generally no way to resolve this issue. However, if you use a third party platform, like an exchange, and the exchange and not your account is hacked, then you might have recourse. The major exchanges tend to be good about reimbursing users in the case of a hack.

How Can I better Secure My Cryptocurrency? Since losing your keys and theft are real issues, it makes sense to follow some best practices of basic internet security. Keep your keys backed up offline (learn more about secure cold wallets), don’t store all your crypto in one location, be careful about URLs (make sure the URL is the real one), use a browser dedicated to crypto, use two-factor authentication on any account you can, choose strong unique passwords, and don’t use your public email to log into your accounts. Taking just a few of these steps will go a long way to protecting you, taking none of these steps is asking for trouble. As a rule of thumb two-factor authentication is a must, so make sure it is enabled on all platforms that allow it! TIP: Although there are exceptions to this rule, the main security risk with the major cryptos isn’t the software (the software takes a ton of work to hack) or the major exchanges (the major ones are ensured, keep most of their funds in cold storage, and have security teams), it is people not taking care to secure their accounts.

Is Bitcoin Anonymous? Bitcoin is pseudo-anonymous. Every transaction is recorded on the public ledger (the blockchain), but no identifying data is used. Everyone can see the transaction and the public wallet address associated with it, but no one knows who made the transaction (unless that person or entity makes that information public). Other cryptocurrencies have more or less focus on privacy than Bitcoin. Some cryptocurrencies, like Monero are truly anonymous (in theory). With Monero, not even transaction data is public.

What is a smart contract? A smart contract is exactly what it sounds like, a “smart” (software-based and programable) “contract” (a set of conditions that when met execute the terms of the contract). Smart contracts can be written to a cryptocurrency’s blockchain to create a trustless contract (a peer-to-peer contract that doesn’t require a middle-man or trust). Unlike paper contracts a software contract can execute any function that can be executed by the software once conditions are met. This means in theory smart contracts can replace real contracts, but also do anything software can do. Ethereum’s system relies heavily on smart contracts, anyone can create a smart contract on Ethereum if they have the native Ether token to pay the fee for using the system. TIP: Bitcoin transactions are smart financial contracts, but Ethereum allows for smart contracts for much more than just financial transactions. Ethereum’s contracts can distribute new tokens, double as insurance contracts, or anything you can think of.

On Being Peer-to-Peer and Trustless. An important feature of cryptocurrency is that it is trustless. The encryption, code, blockchain, etc all comes together to allow for a trustless peer-to-peer distributed and decentralized system. That sentence might sound jargon-y, but it contains some important points. At the core, the idea is that all the aspects of cryptocurrency come together to create a system that doesn’t rely on trusting your peers or trusting a middle-man. Contracts written to the blockchain are written in stone, there is no need for trust or middlemen to ensure the execution of a contract once its conditions are met!

Crypto Terms: “FOMO” is fear of missing out (an emotional response to seeing the price move a lot and wanting in). FUD is fear, uncertainty, and doubt that can affect the prices of assets. “HODL” is a misspelling of hold from an old forum post (it today means “hold on for dear life during big price movements”). A “hard fork” is like a fork in the road, a copy and paste of software that allows each copy to branch off in a different direction (when this happens with Bitcoin the ledger is duplicated along with balances, meaning people get the newly forked coins for free). An “Airdrop” is a method of distributing newly minted coins to the wallet addresses of current coin holders.

Recent U.S. sanctions against cryptocurrency mixer Tornado Cash have sparked a debate within the crypto community on whether the ban compromises users’ ability to operate anonymously.

Earlier this week, the Treasury Department imposed sanctions against Tornado Cash for helping hackers launder over $7 billion worth of virtual currency. The agency said the mixer service allowed cyber criminal groups, including North Korean-backed hackers, to use its platform to launder the proceeds of cyber crimes.

Does that mean that all the privacy coins will be banned and regulated? Even those having own no KYC decentralized exchanges, like Crypton?

As the FIFA World Cup is currently underway in Qatar, cyber-security researchers on Monday warned that threat actors are selling fake Hayya cards, which is essentially a permit document, to fans who are willing to pay any amount to get one.

To attend the FIFA World Cup, one needs to have a Hayya card which must be presented along with the original ticket in order to enter the stadium.
Sellers ask for $50-150 and payment is only accepted in Bitcoin.

"Given that Crypto.com is an official FIFA sponsor and Binance has partnered with Christiano Ronaldo to promote soccer-themed non-fungible tokens (NFTs), threat actors are piggy-backing on this hype to sell fake World Cup Coin' and 'World Cup Token' by promoting them as limited edition cryptocurrency" the researchers said.

I was already wondering why there's no scam around the World Cup. Have you heard of other scam coins to avoid them?

Nice catch, it's triple plagiarism or let's say multiple plagiarism from what is known right now. Maybe there's even more…
Good job to expose such case of multiple plagiarism. 

As we can see from MinoRaiola's trust page, this account is involved in much more shady abuses, like improper use of positive trust to pad up his own + friends ratings, where his shitposter friend Unknown01 is involved, too.
I've left MinoRaiola a neutral feedback to make signature campaign managers aware of his plagiarism.
In addition, MinoRaiola is part of the gambling board spammer list compiled by Igebotz.

It's quite disappointing to see such abusers getting away very easily now, especially considering he's a multiple plagiarizer.
For this case, he's just lucky that his plagiarism hasn't been exposed earlier; he would get banned right away for that earlier, for sure.
I've reported his posts as plagiarism as well (1 is already not available anymore). Even with moderators being extremely lenient towards plagiarizers lately, a temporary 1 year signature ban would be appropriate, considering MinoRaiola has proven to be a signature-spammer, offloading his paid signature spam here on Bitcointalk 24/7.
Would be interesting to see, if his weekly post numbers would decrease significantly, should he receive a temporary singature ban. As all of us know, a signature ban is what will hurt signature-spammers + co the most.
For now, we only can hope for moderators to act here and issue a temporary 1 year signature ban, where MinoRaiola could still prove that he deserves his signature space back by posting here without getting handsomely rewarded for the time during his temporary signature ban.
All we can do for now, is reporting his plagiarized posts and maybe add a neutral trust to make campaign managers aware of it.

KUDOS to everyone here, exposing plagiarizers.

He ~ my judgment for including him on the list of gambling board spammers, but I didn't bother because I had already reported many of his posts from last years and the majority had gone unhandled. So Instead of wasting time reporting, I simply made the list in the hopes that the managers would see it and decide whether they agreed with me or not.

The moderators were gracious enough to give him another chance because he is an old member and he was pardoned for previous violations, but I doubt he would be as lucky on this second report. The signature ban hasn't occurred in years; now, it's either you're banned or you're pardoned. The latter is the current trend.

Yeah, it's usual for him to do this when someone exposed him. I'm on his distrust list as well, similar like many high-ranked DT members.
It's quite strange but obviously it's his approach for solving these issues.
And so far it's working well for him, he's still getting paid.  

So Instead of wasting time reporting, I simply made the list in the hopes that the managers would see it and decide whether they agreed with me or not.

Definitely, best case your list would get accepted similar to actmyname's spammers blacklist, where spammers are rejected frequently when applying for signature campaigns.
I've seen campaign managers adding actmyname's list in their rules, like here by icopress. It's really beneficial for the forum to have campaign managers considering such feedbcks.  
I would definitely support campaign managers adding your list as a rule, too.

I've been a little bit more active in Gambling Discussion lately and regarding Gambling post quality, I'm definitely trusting your knowledge and judgement about posting quality in that section.
Unfortunately, there are far too many spammers, who just comment there to get their required weekly gambling posts quota and don't care about sport or gambling...

The signature ban hasn't occurred in years; now, it's either you're banned or you're pardoned. The latter is the current trend.

Yes, I'm a bit surprised why temporary bans are "out" after all. A temporary signature ban is rather soft; people can still write posts as usual. It isn't affecting normal discussions at all. I really don't know why this procedure has been abandoned as it's a great way to see if affected accounts should be given a second chance, if they'll contribute to the forum without paid signature or if they are really just here to spam to earn a few sats.

This shows how much Moderators tolerated him. I've commented on his posts and asked him not to repeat such things. He created a bunch of threads and never checked back his threads.

Mine is limited to active gambling board posters, whereas actmyname covers the entire forum. I believe mine will be useful for managers who are only interested in gambling posts, but that list hasn't been updated in a while because I rarely visit those mega spam threads, and I only read and post in moderated threads with users who are actually gamblers and not just posting for the sake of signature.

Since the majority of the users on my list are still in their various campaigns and are still getting paid, I don't believe my list has had any impact yet; perhaps managers aren't seeing it as frequently because these users aren't tagged (I see it as inappropriate use of the system).

Yes, especially gambling-related camapigns are of interest, where the respective signature campaign manager is responsible.
But I really believe your list is very useful. Even if there's little impact, a little positive impact is still very positive for Bitcointalk. So far, at least icopress is considering your list and maybe more signature campaign managers will follow because it's not beneficial for advertised services at all to reward excessive spammers for one-liners on page 100 of a topic, only visited by other one-liner spammers.
Regarding a tag, I can imagine that a neutral tag similar to actmyname's approach can be a good solution but it would be quite a lot of work for you and if most signature campaign managers don't care anyways, it's probably wasted time, so I can understand your point here.

My suggestion was more about the community monitoring the activity of temporary signature-banned accounts, for example if their post count is dropping significantly, when wearing no signature.
Moderators would only need to issue a temporary signature ban (1 year) as it's being done right now, the account owner could still write posts normally, just not earn from signature campaigns for 1 year (while his signature is deisbaled) and that's it, from a moderator perspective.
It would be up to the community to review it and leave a neutral trust (like actmyname) after the temporary signature ban, if there's a clear drop of weekly posts, indicating that the affected account has only been used toearn a few easy sats or similar.
Such cases could also be handled in a community managed list of temporary signature banned accounts, which couldn't convice our community that they are not just here to spam to earn a few sats.
Once again, signature campaign managers would need to enforce such lists as every abuser would get his signature space enabled again, as it's only a temporary ban.
It's not easy to find a solution here, so it's just an idea right now.

My anaylsis from crypto updates, An experts believe that the rising interest rates and tighter monetary policy will not allow Bitcoin to rebound sharply in the near future. As in this kind of uncertain market, investors will not prefer to invest or buy risky assets such as Bitcoin.
Analysts believe the crypto market will recover in 2023. By the end of the year, the bulk of the bear market will be behind us; however, a full bull market, going by bitcoin price history, is not guaranteed. Some believe the bottom will be reached in the first quarter of 2023, with bitcoin falling to $10,000 or lower.

So far, the crypto market has had a wild year. Many events have occurred in the past few months, including the halving of large altcoins and the bankruptcy of crypto exchanges. There has been speculation regarding the future of cryptocurrencies in 2023 and whether they will be bullish or bearish. Instead, let’s explore potential trends for the New Year, as it is impossible to predict the future.
 THERE HAS FINALLY BEEN A RECOVERY
 Analysts believe the crypto market will recover in 2023.

These price declines might cause most altcoins to decline by 60% to 80%. The price of Cardano may drop to around 10 cents. This might be an opportunity for those who want to buy or a signal that its reputation as the Ethereum killer has ended. WATCH OUT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER
