10 Years on Bitcointalk

[AakZaki]

It doesn't feel like it's been a decade since I first joined Bitcointalk. Until now I am still excited to continue contributing to this forum. It is not easy to be able to survive during this time which requires consistency and strong determination.

This forum has given valuable lessons over the past 10 years, starting from the garbage writing I once wrote to becoming a better piece of writing to date.

But in the past year, I prefer to contribute to cleaning up all forms of cheating, I spend more time observing, analyzing and in some cases, dismantling the various forms of cheating that occur on this forum. Because cheating never really goes away just changes shape.

I made this thread as a documentation of contributions, especially related to efforts to identify suspicious activities, problematic accounts, and various schemes that have the potential to harm other members.

Not to claim something, but rather as an open archive that can be a common reference, as well as a discussion material to increase community awareness.

Below are some of the Threads I've created:

• One Account Investigated - 20 More Accounts Connected
• 21 Connected Accounts - 1 Hero Member - 2 Sr.Member - 3 FM - 2Member - 11 Newbie
• 3 Connected Accounts - 1 Legendary - 1 Hero Members - 1 Sr. Member
• Connected Account Efforts that Sign Up for the Same Campaign.
• Lending Money to a -3 RedTrust Account - It Turns Out the Account Is Connected
• Jason@ and AuchanX Make Drama Turn Out to Be Connected Accounts
• 13 Connected Accounts - 4 Legendary - 6 Hero Members - 1 Sr. Member - 2 Full Member
• Largest Connected Account Farm: 2 Accounts Building Positive Trust via Loans
• Pay Attention to This Pattern
• Two Accounts Belonging To One Cunning Person
• [Finding] The Same Wallet Was Used by Two Different Accounts
• From SIX accounts it has now increased to EIGHTEEN connected accounts.
• Largest Account Farm Ever Found: 24 Connected Accounts
• Evolution of Account Connections: Q1 2018 to Q4 2025 - Total 8 Connected Account
• A Comprehensive Analysis Identifying NINE Connected Accounts
• 4 Hero Members and 1 Sr. Member are connected and 2 of them are in Epicbet

I realize it's not perfect compared to what other members have done before me, but for the time being that's all I've been able to do for almost a year. I am still determined to continue exposing the cheating.

One thing that makes me more excited to be active on this forum is that the achievement of Merit from the last year to date is almost 1000 Merits that I have earned, thus meaning that my Thread or post can be accepted or considered worthy of the merit giver.

What also makes me a little happier is the achievement of a total of 2000 Merits this year. the largest gain in the past year is on this Reputation Board.
I would like to say a big thank you to everyone and to this amazing Bitcointalk community.

My account was once doubtful to have changed hands, due to a change in posting about cheating. But I say once again here, that this account will never change hands. Two-Finger Greetings ✌️

congratulations on reaching the goal
when I look back too, exactly when I started surfing the internet in bits and pieces, or when I started using the computer or programming it seems like another era
I don't know if you have the same feeling seeing yourself from 10 years ago, on this forum

I'm still ashamed today of how much of a newbie I was.

ok, I won't make a big deal out of it to confuse you.     Just a regular congrats!

Thank you for keeping the forum clean, you really deserve an award. Keep on the good work.

I hope you are also hodling bitcoin as your account is growing on this forum so that your bitcoin will also be growing. There are huge benefits in hodling bitcoin.

Yeah, because I'm one of the shining examples of a member who's been here >10 years who hasn't quite been able to hodl.  I have to believe there are more unfortunate souls in the same predicament who just don't want to admit it. 

Ten years is a long time to be a member of a discussion forum, especially if you're still fairly active at year ten (which it sounds like you are).  Congrats....and why don't you shoot me some of that positive energy or whatever it is that motivates you.  I need it.  Coffee just isn't cutting it anymore.

Congratulations my brother for 10 long years on this beloved forum.
Actually, I also passed my 10 years at Bitcointalk last April, but I missed it to celebrate.

I may have come to this forum earlier, but I know @AakZaki is a Local member of our Sub Forum Indonesia who is quite active until now,
despite a few years before taking a long break and then being active again.

But it is a wonderful thing when you make so many contributions to this forum, and once again congratulations on this wonderful 10 years.

But even if they don't manage to hold off in the long term or to date, it doesn't mean they're unlucky, as they may choose to take their profits early to meet their life needs.
I am among those who came from 10 years ago, until now quite getting more profit although some also returned to crypto (because of scammers).

active from day one until now is an amazing thing, but again this is about how the contribution of every user,
even though long on this forum but not contributing anything is the same as never do this forum.

But you are one of the first members of this forum, this is the 11th year for you and you are still active today. You are also amazing.

I dumped my whole stash during the covid19 panic years ago… didn’t get mad, didn’t throw a fit… yes it was a mistake on hindsight but if we learn from our mistakes that’s better so we don’t repeat them mistakes.

Good news is, i did other investments, worked harder and almost made up for my losses from my potential btc gains. Not all but let’s say, almost there.

There is always another opportunity right around the corner.

Crypto was a good opportunity but it wasn’t the only one. Stock market especially, is full of surprises. If I knew stocks even before i met crypto, part of me thinks maybe I wouldn’t even be here in this forum… not as an investor… as a curious hobbyist? Possibly.

Seeing those multifold gains is crazy indeed. Imagine those that have stocked up on those Intel, AMD and Sandisk... would have made some handsome profits.

Congratulations, brother, you deserve to create a thread on your 10th year here in Bitcointalk because you have achieved a lot, and you will achieve more in the coming years.

[lovesmayfamilis]

My friend, I sincerely congratulate you. I don't think your threads about finding cheaters are few; each one has a fairly decent number of people whose lives you've ruined on the forum and made them feel uneasy . I'm always happy when I see threads like this. It is important and necessary to catch cheaters, no matter how hard they try to deceive the forum. I congratulate you on this milestone; it's truly a significant milestone and a great achievement. Ten years is a long time, and I wish you to stay relevant and on the forum for at least as long and to keep those who think the forum is a cash cow awake at night.💪

[Lucius]

Congratulations on your first ten years and I hope you'll be here for the next ten years

Also, welcome to the 10+ club, I joined it last year. Your work in exposing alts is something that should be especially praised, I hope you will continue to be one of the best forum detectives.

[Zoomic]

Congratulations for a decade in Bitcointalk. That is a great milestone. I didn't know you are this old in the forum. I actually started seeing your threads in the reputation board not quiet long ago.
From henceforth, I will give you the OG respect you deserve.
