User still newbie and really did a great job. I am not able to describe those post in category like op suggested because these post are just normal reply on thread. So I don't know how to do that. Well I just share it for good purpose.

I recently declined to give bibop555 merit because his post history is nearly entirely made up of one liners when I checked yesterday.

Absent his spammy post history I probably would have given one of his posts merit:
Re: 51% attack on Bitcoin

He also submitted Random number that did generate some responses.

I will leave this here in case anyone else wants to review his submission and award him merit. I told him I would not give him any because of his post history.

Most of his posts deserve deletion. But if he really improved after realizing that's what he needs to rank up, that kinda deserves a reward. On the other hand, abruptly going from shitposter to decent posts sets off my "plagiarism alarm". I can't find it, it might be a very good text spinner, but I find it hard to believe it's his own work.

Re: 51% attack on Bitcoin

This post of his in particular screams of text spinning and/or machine auto-translation. Phrases like "bitcoin excavators" instead of "bitcoin miners" and "double transaction" instead of "double spend" are dead give-aways. If you ignore the obviously spun words, it has almost perfect grammar and punctuation. Compare that to his other posts in completely broken English.

I am 100% sure this is plagiarized. He will be getting no merit from me. Can anyone find the source so we can ban him?

Edit: Found it and reported him. Source here: https://medium.com/coinmonks/what-is-a-51-attack-or-double-spend-attack-aa108db63474.

Few questions:
I can post my thread or posts?
I can post threads or posts which has less merits but deserve more?

nothing about what Binance has launched under the false name of DEX is decentralized. in fact it is 100% centralized in everything except the name of it.
that is why people are reluctant to go near it since if anybody is seeking decentralization they would go for actual decentralized exchanges not a fake one that a centralized company creates.

mu_enrico

Because there is no such thing as a decentralized exchange (at least to date), for example, Etherdelta/Forkdelta/IDEX has smart contract issuers (centralized party). Binance chain also has Binance corp as the token issuer.

I think it is better to solve this problem using a non-custodial wallet exchange mechanism, where users' fund are really #SAFU, doesn't matter whether the exchange is centralized or not.

motienvolam

By now, decentralized exchanges contain more potential risks than centralized exchanges. Users of decentralized exchanges have to secure their private keys of their accounts very carefully. They need to have enough knowledge and skills to do this, and when they lose their private keys, there is no way to get them back with decentralized exchanges. That is contrasting with centralized exchanges, where users can send support tickets with bunches of proofs, like emails, past trading history, current balance of their account, and so on to get their accounts back. Maybe in the future, when decentralized exchanges become more matured, people might use them more and such DEX might dominate centralized exchanges.

Raymondavid47

Centralised exchanges where first created a long while before the creation of decentralized exchanges. People have already gotten used to centralised exchanges. Nevertheless this isn't the only reason to use centralized exchanges instead of decentralised exchanges. I think some of other reasons might be.
- Decentralized exchanges are more difficult to use than centralized exchanges.
- You can easily loose your funds on decentralized exchanges.
- Centralised exchanges are more automated than decentralized exchanges.
- Bot trading is better to be used on centralised exchanges than decentralized exchanges.

If anyone has any interest in learning about gambling, I would encourage you to read this post first:

If you play gambling, there will be win and losses. And playing gambling is not an easy job to earn money. I am giving my opinion below how successful gambling can be achieved.

1. Use the technique
2. Be patient
3. The willingness to risk
4. Luck

I think these four things contribute a lot to the success of gambling.

How would you feel about a "no self posts" rule? There are plenty of other merit giveaway threads across the forum you can report your own posts in.

I agree with this idea, i lost interest with this thread after most reported posts are either made by reporters or in foreign language.

I agree too, I feel self posting here is like merit begging after putting some thought into it.
At first it wasnt a common occurrence but now seems to be a trend.

At least the thread is self-moderated, otherwise it'll be other merit giveaway thread.

On a side note the sight of merit source report unmerited good posts to another merit source seems ridiculous

I don't mind, I have more sMerit left than ever (now 500+), so I'm glad to spend some.

As a long-term solution, you could ask theymos to increase your source amount. You made a decent list of posts.
