@AnisEverRise
This is the third pm you have sent me within 24 hours (4th one, and you will be reported to mods), asking to remove my trust feedback. You have tried everything, from begging to threatening.
May I suggest to make your negative "Trust feedback abuse"-feedback neutral? I don't think answering Trust abuse with more abuse is right, especially when you're on DT.

I mean 2026 we cannot say to people stop using A I
You were literally saying you're "testing a setup". If that would have been true, you would have posted a real picture.

I'll add my own neutrla feedback, and put the guy who writes in colors and caps on Ignore.

No problem this is a lesson ... keep the fight agaisnt A.I Robots.

Ofc, in fact I appreciate valuable suggestions from a member like you.

I don't think answering Trust abuse with more abuse is right, especially when you're on DT.
I have to get back to it after some time (I need sometime to get back to those reads which made me act like I did), but for now lets say I followed your informed opinion. If you want to add on to something please do I really appreciate that.

BPIP works fine for me.

Checked a few minutes ago; it's working now. Smiley

I wonder if it's something big that has been causing all this, because we kept facing several errors in a very short amount of time.

The other day I faced an error, and the other other day another, and now today this one.

The difference: Wallet of Satoshi is custodial.
I did not know that there was a new post on this thread until today that I want to update the topic. This is the reason I did not add Wallet of Satoshi. It is very easy to use but it is a custodial wallet.
Their website's FAQ and Support page Article mentioned that it now comes with custodial and self-custodial modes depending on the region.
Maybe it's locked to custodial mode in both of your regions?

But I haven't done any extensive research to find how it works so you might need to DYOR to check.

For reference: support.walletofsatoshi.com/support/solutions/articles/36000578784-what-is-self-custody-and-how-is-it-different-from-classic-wallet-of-satoshi-
This is true, I have just created the wallet and I saw the noncustodial wallet option there.


This is it before and after I generate the 12 word seed phrase with the equilibrium sign (⇌):

   


But it would have been better if they give the option of custodial and noncustodial wallet in a way users can choose which one they want, after they open the wallet but the default is the custodial wallet. If you close the app and open it back, the default is the custodial wallet just like before, you will have to always click on the noncustodial wallet option from the custodial wallet page. I think this may encourage people to just be using the custodial option.

It is not regional specific according to what Z-tight posted on this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5543734.msg65894464#msg65894464 which is from Wallet of Satoshi customer care or support.

Something funny that happened yesterday was that when I first opened the forum, I didn’t even realize it was April 1st, and when the forum opened up all green, I thought there was something wrong with my monitor,  maybe a loose connection or something like that, hehehe
I closed the browser and then realized what day it was

Back when I had video games from past generations and used component video cables, if you plugged a cable in wrong, the image could turn greenish, bluish, or reddish, hehehe, that’s what I remembered  Cheesy

If only it were possible to test the forum with an orange hue instead of blue. It would be even more indicative of the forum's topic.
It would actually be a destruction to the visual branding of the forum, and of our eyes.

No, please, not again lol  Grin
Green was already hard to bear and orange would be even worse.
Thank God April Fools' Day is over and we're back to normal.
I now appreciate some things on this forum that I used to take for granted, like this beautiful blue color.
If there ever needs to be any drastic changes made to this forum, I hope the color doesn't change.

As far as I know, PM-spammers get banned "if enough people report it", so just report it.

This kind of proofs should be validated in a certain way. I can't confirm that your video has not somehow edited or any other major falls...
I don't know if their ToS has a specific instruction for those cases but I would suggest also to keep it all private Roll Eyes ... try to reach them and ask to a lawyer.
Proving account ownership (for what I have seen) doesn't seems straight as it could be appear in a first glance.

Quote from: terrific on April 01, 2026, 04:45:07 PM
@OP, they're a known terrible exchange. I thought that they were gone out of business.
I'll be frank with you that there's a little chance that you'll be able to get your money from them.
And on the better side of it is that you're able to withdraw the bigger amount than that's pending on your request.

I have not heard of anyone who received their funds after issues with their account, but since a large amount is involved, I also encourage you to hire a lawyer and let him handle this case. A lawyer who is familiar with this kind of case.
For around 0.1BTC that's pending, he might spend more than that and still don't win against yobit.

can you reupload the screenshots to talkimg.com in a better resolution? the ones in the OP are unreadable.

it baffles me how YoBit is still operating after all these years? almost everyone knows they are a scam exchange.
they scam people for even less amounts let alone 0.1 btc, i'm sorry OP but that money is as good as gone, they will just keep giving you excuses.

To robelneo: I am aware of the risks, but I believe in justice. This is not a small amount, and l am prepared to take legal action if YoBit continues to ignore these technical facts.
not to be pessimistic, but legal action against sites like YoBit is kinda useless, they are an unregulated exchange incorporated under a shell company in panama.
assuming you go after them and you get a ruling against them, they will just move to another offshore country and ignore it.


Subject: [FINAL PROOF] Professional Screen Recording – Verifying 1.78 BTC Deposit (April 2018)
Dear bitbollo, dkbit98, Rikafip, robelneo, LoyceV and Zwel
I would like to express my deepest gratitude for your time and the critical feedback you provided. As a professional technician, I completely understand and respect your skepticism—in the world of crypto, "Don't trust, verify" is the golden rule.
To address your concerns regarding the previous video's quality and authenticity, I have recorded a new, high-definition screen recording directly from my MacBook.
Watch the Final Verified Evidence here: https://youtu.be/WLtCX1UZs-Y?si=Z0KTFF81ltKM5HV-
In this video, I have performed the following steps to ensure 100% transparency:
1.   Live Time Verification: Started with a Google search for "Current Time" (April 2, 2026) to confirm the recording is live and current.
2.   Live Page Refresh (F5): I refreshed the Binance deposit history page to demonstrate that the data is being fetched directly from Binance’s official servers in real-time.
3.   Historical Filter (2018): I manually set the date range to April 2018 to locate the specific transaction.
4.   Blockchain Cross-Reference: I verified the TxID 0b5dae73a6fb4e82acbb08e67a1d7a9892a53e22cd61d7d539239fc572f543d9 on Blockchain.com, matching the 1.78894785 BTC deposit exactly.
5.   Account Ownership: My verified Binance UID 11799607 is clearly shown.
This withdrawal of 1.78 BTC from YoBit to Binance in 2018 is an undeniable fact. It proves my ownership of the account and confirms that the remaining funds held by YoBit are my legitimate assets.
I am a disciplined investor and a hardworking business owner. I am not looking for trouble; I am simply seeking justice for what belongs to me. I hope this evidence is sufficient for the community to stand with me.
Thank you once again for your professional guidance.

Terbatasnya Merit Source Lokal
Merit source lokal siapa gan? Om @Husna QA? Kalau iya, kayaknya beliau susah payah banget ronda SFI nyari2 orang yang layak merit. Ini bukan kesusahan nemu post yang berkualitas dan layak merit ya maksud saya. Tapi kesusahan untuk mendistribusikannya biar semua member yang layak bisa kebagian dan merasa adil. Biar gak ada alasan "Hanya Berputar Pada Circle" muncul. Kalau memang benar sekarang cuma ada 1 merit source, sepertinya memang layak dipertimbangkan untuk nambah. Biar gak beban yang mendistribusikan. Dengan banyaknya member SFI, pasti agak beban untuk secara gak langsung menentukan kelancaran naik pangkat member2 SFI. (Ini pendapat saya aja ya yang coba memposisikan diri sebagai merit source)


Hanya Berputar Pada Circle
Awalnya saya juga mikir gitu. Bukan circle antar main account dan tuyul2nya. Tapi circle yang gang2an di SFI, karena saya lihat A ngasi B, B juga ngasi A. Tapi ternyata saya salah, itu namanya bukan circle, tapi balas budi. Hal ini terlewatkan sama saya, dan diingetin sama Om @kawetsriyanto. Thank you om.

Bukan hanya alasan kasih merit antar akun farming, ada juga kemungkinan lainnya. Kalau dari yang saya lihat selama ini, ada yang namanya seperti timbal balik. Pasti ente bakal malas kasih merit ke akun yang pelit ngasih merit ke yang lain. Atau sama sekali tidak pernah memberikan merit ke ente. Biasanya member-member yang tidak pelit merit, relatif lebih mudah mendapatkan merit dari yang lain.
-snip-

Make sense sih gan. Kalau cuma pasif, gak muterin smerit, kurang ternotice juga. At least dinotice secara personal oleh si penerima merit. Walaupun pada akhirnya, ngirim merit banyak pertimbangan juga selain utamanya post itu sendiri.

Saya soalnya merasa kayak gitu sekarang. Pake konsep...
Merit hanyalah titipan...


Standar Tinggi untuk Memberikan Merit
Mau ngapain sih dengan sMerit. Lihat post yang berkualitas, atau yang effort, kasih merit. Pengen kasih merit ke orang, tapi agan bingung ngasi di post yang mana, cek aja history meritnya. Di post mana orang itu dapat merit, mungkin di sana post dia yang layak dikirimi merit. Kita gak tahu seberapa besar dampak 1 merit itu ke orang. Pada dasarnya orang ingin dihargai, diapresiasi karena effortnya. Mungkin 1 merit dari agan itu yang melahirkan semangat dan post2 berkualitas dari member itu setelahnya karena merasa termotivasi untuk dapat merit lagi. Tapi jujur, saya ketegori yang nimbun. Nimbun dari awal sistem merit. Karena baru agak aktif ngemerit belakangan ini.


Konten Harus Panjang di SFI
Ini sudah easy terbantahkan sih. Tinggal lihat history merit orang2. Post2 pendek juga dapat merit. Kalau saya bilang yang penting kualitas, terlalu umum kayaknya. IMO, konten agan bisa dapat merit kalau solutif, menghibur, bisa beri "oohhhh..." moment, atau sekedar punya pendapat yang sejalan aja sama si pemberi merit.


Tidak Mendapatkan Perhatian User Global
Kalau gak dapat perhatian dari user global, tinggal jemput bola di thread2 semacam...


Udah sih itu aja dari saya... Mic saya kembalikan ke MC...

The risk didn’t pay off for the three for the win of this round, but at least you have got some BTC to ease the pain.
Sorry GazetaBitcoin, this isn't a joke, but since you are in last place, you are now eliminated.
 
What ? Seriously ?! There must be a mistake. No... Welll... congrats Hypnotizer, here are 25BTC for winning this round. And you are now the owner of the Duel card.
When you are eliminated, this card gives you the opportunity to challenge someone to a duel. A (slightly shorter) round will be played between just the two of you (you can apply bonus/malus to each other, but not the others). Like the Hunter's card, you will have to challenge someone with at least 2 lives (if any remain).
If you win the duel, you stay in the game with one life, and your opponent loses one life. If you lose the duel, you are eliminated.
The winner of the duel also earns an extra 10BTC, because I’m generous.

Well, Hypnotizer, that makes three wins in a row. I didn't think it would happen, so I'm going to give you a little something.
For round 13, you will need to distribute 1.5% bonus to 3 to 5 players. Think carefully about who you give these bonus to, because they could beat you. The specific details of this rule will be announced in the next round.
 
Congrats, cryptofrka. I thought you wouldn’t survive the poisoned malus, but you did. I’m keeping my word, you now have an extra 10BTC in your account.
 
For round 12, I received a special request from a friend. Well... "friend" is a way of speaking, he is someone I had the misfortune of meeting. And he is threatening to sue me if I refuse his request.
So for round 12, you are not going to predict the price of Bitcoin, but the price of Bitcoin Satoshi Vision.
Also, as my "friend" asked, anyone who gives a compliment about Craig S. Wright will get a little something.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 08:22:23 AM
if I use a trusted back-end liquidity provider.
The first problem you'll run into, is your liquidity provider freezing funds based on some (arbitrary) taint analysis. You may not ask for KYC, but your liquidity provider will have questions. I've seen many cases like this, where an "exchange" turns out to send funds to a third party and the customer gets screwed. How are you going to handle this?

Excellent point.  These are the types of things I need to hear to know what I'm up against.  This is an argument for providing my own liquidity, but that also means having my own backend and that requires a lot of education...


Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 08:22:23 AM
I would really prefer not to.  The coins are spread out in multiple addresses, and I'd rather not expose any of them for my own privacy.
That makes sense. However, if you do want to prove ownership of funds, feel free to email me a signed message:
The easiest way to send private ~ is if you create a Protonmail account. My email:
Code:
LoyceVswitzerland@protonmail.com
This way, the email has end-to-end encryption and should be secure. There's of course always the risk of your (or my) computer being compromised.
I won't post your address, I'll only post the confirmed ownership of an amount in Bitcoin up to 2 decimals accurate. I'll delete your email after posting the amount. You'll still need to trust me on this, but that's up to you Smiley If you do decide to prove ownership of funds, it might add to your credibility. And this only works on people who trust me to do as I say. It can help address Vod's question:
We get these threads on a regular basis - you have no funds and no skills - what do you bring to the table?

Thanks for the offer, but I've already arranged for DireWolfM14 to act as escrow if I hire a developer.  I have no reputation here, so even if I prove I have money I doubt anyone would work for me without upfront payment, and that's not something I'd be willing to do.

On this topic, I find it funny that I'm here to get help starting a privacy service, and then get bullied into betraying my own.  I thought this place valued privacy, am I mistaken?

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 08:22:23 AM
I do want to preface this by mentioning that my country doesn't look fondly at KYC-Free crypto exchanges
I've said it before and I'll say it again: in the long run, we can't have good trusted no-KYC exchanges: if they're good, they'll be used by bad people, authorities will target them, and eventually shut them down. If they're bad, well, there's no point in using them. Before starting this, you should read this entire topic.

Quote
I would need to find a domain name registrar and hosting provider that accepts bitcoin payments and doesn't require personal information.
Just in case you think this is your biggest problem:
Quote
What funding will I need, what skills should I learn, what must I bring to the table?
I'd say: "it depends". And that answer doesn't help you Tongue Many exchanges got hacked and lost fortunes in the past, and this still happens to billion dollar exchanges. So security alone isn't something to take lightly.

Thanks again for your comments, you make many great points.

Nice try, but Electron apps use Temp for cache and session stuff, they don't randomly extract and run binaries from there. That’s not normal behavior at all. .

3. c64chaind.exe — 579 MB RAM, 39/71 VirusTotal detections
c64chaind is a full CryptoNote node daemon. It loads the entire blockchain into memory on startup.
Loading the whole blockchain into memory? That just doesn’t make sense as no legit node especially Bitcoin-based loads everything into RAM. They use disk-based databases. This honestly just sounds like you’re trying to explain it away.

Quote from: oxynaz on March 30, 2026, 10:04:10 PM
The miner binary is bundled with the wallet but does not execute until the user navigates to the Mining tab, enters a valid wallet address, and explicitly clicks the Start button.
Well, my ProcMon logs say otherwise. and the processes spawned the second I opened the wallet. no clicks, no input, nothing.

Check the video evidence for yourself: -> https://streamable.com/wh7ohc

Command Line: C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\AppData\Local\Temp\3BTj5V0J4oKLCLRIexUwdotjTNQ\resources\bin\win\c64chaind.exe --rpc-bind-port=19641 --data-dir=C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\AppData\Roaming\c64chain-wallet\c64chain --non-interactive --log-level=1 --no-zmq

The video at 04:27, you can clearly see the --non-interactive flag in the command line of c64chaind.exe. It literally tells the program to run in the background without asking for anything.





It shows the wallet instantly launching hidden processes and the miner from the Temp folder. No buttons clicked, no consent given. It’s all right there.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 07:46:21 AM
In that case: how do you explain the 3.8% CPU consumption on your screenshot? I'd expect a miner to use all available resources continuously.
@LoyceV, yeah that’s actually a fair point.. More advanced miners don’t just go 100% right away.. They often start low to avoid detection, then gradually increase usage over time. In this case, seeing Power Usage -> Very High while CPU usage is only -> 3.8% suggests there’s background activity that isn’t immediately visible. BTW, a lot of miners are designed to avoid detection. They keep CPU usage low at the start, then ramp it up later when the system is idle.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 07:46:21 AM
I see a lot of lines about being a miner. But that's what the software is supposed to do. Would VirusTotal say the same about for instance monero-wallet-gui?
Look closely at the "Threat Categories" in the VirusTotal sandbox analysis for C64



A clean miner like Monero GUI gets flagged as Miner or PUA (Riskware). But C64? It’s explicitly tagged as a Trojan. Three major sandboxes, Zenbox, CAPE, and C2AE, didn't just find a miner, they flagged the whole thing as MALWARE. These systems monitor behavior in real time, and what they saw lines up exactly with what I saw in ProcMon video.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
At the end, I’ll let the community and @LoyceV look at the facts and decide for themselves. The data is right there, and it doesn't lie.

I started off on the wrong foot with you.  I'm not here to argue, I'm here to learn.  So, yes, of course, you're right.  I have no funds, I have no skills, I bring nothing to the table.

Now that we have gotten that out of the way, can we please focus on the actual question?  What funding will I need, what skills should I learn, what must I bring to the table?
I'm a little curious.
What exactly attracted you to start no-kyc exchange, from all other business models for which you do not have enough knowledge or skills?
No-KYC exchanges are not limited to the swap process between two currencies, there is a lot more work in the background, both technical and non-technical.
I don't think you can learn everything you need in a short period of time, and it is easily possible that when you are competitive enough, the instant exchanging business will no longer be in such expansion.

I would like to add here, without your own liquidity, you cannot start a no-KYC service, period.

Quote from: DireWolfM14 on March 30, 2026, 03:25:56 PM
This forum can be so myopic at times.  Getting paid to post isn't the only way to earn money, and being in a signature campaign isn't a requirement to pay beck your debts.  Of course there are people on LoyceV's weekly list who have red-tags who I would trust with thousands of dollars, campaign or not.

If some account is involved in nefarious activity, the person witnessing and exposing that activity has an obligation to the entire community, not just one person among us.  Lending is risky business, and shouldn't be taken lightly.  If one of us chooses to take that risk, the blame for not thoroughly vetting the borrowers is his and his alone.

Obviously, this ought to be the norm but unfortunately the lenders here seem to ignore the vetting part completely. I have seen cases of accounts with disturbing neutral tag yet they applied for loan and get approval. This prove the lender only care about the future interest to the extent of putting their capital at risk. Accounts with disturbing neutral tag are likely to receive negative tag sooner or later if further investigation is carried out. Lenders should be aware of this but since they choose to turn blind eye, then they should accept the consequences.

After all, negative tags or being removed from campaign should not stop them from paying if they are willing to pay back. I suppose everyone taking loan has other means of paying back the loan and not completely rely on signature campaign. Or does it mean loans can not be automatically paid once campaign ends? Or they keep extending until they find new campaign? And what happens if they can not find another campaign? Default automatically? If signature campaign is the only hope paying back the loan is tied to, I don't think the lender is aware of the severity of risk he's into.

We all want a sane community free from cheaters. The community is trying to be lenient so lenders can recover their money but from all indication this leniency is already being abused and taken advantage of. Continuing on the path of using loan as excuse to call out cheater translate to endorsement/promotion of system abuse.

Adanya thread khusus untuk ulasan reputasi membantu menciptakan transparansi dan akuntabilitas, terutama dalam transaksi peer-to-peer seperti jual beli atau pinjam meminjam antar pengguna. Hal yang menonjol bagi saya adalah adanya batasan ruang lingkup yang jelas. Dengan membatasi ulasan hanya pada transaksi yang berasal dari forum, hal ini menjaga agar semuanya tetap dapat diverifikasi serta mencegah thread dipenuhi dengan klaim yang tidak dapat dibuktikan dari platform eksternal seperti Facebook atau WhatsApp. Ini adalah langkah yang tepat, karena sistem reputasi hanya dapat berfungsi dengan baik jika bukti dapat diperiksa secara publik. Saya juga setuju dengan keputusan untuk tidak mendukung jual beli akun. Karena hal tersebut sudah melanggar sebagian besar Terms of Service (ToS) platform, memasukkannya ke dalam diskusi reputasi hanya akan mendorong perilaku yang berisiko dan melanggar aturan. Penekanan untuk tidak menyediakan layanan escrow juga merupakan hal yang penting. Alih-alih mengambil tanggung jawab tersebut, mengarahkan pengguna kepada penyedia escrow yang terpercaya dan berpengalaman adalah pilihan yang lebih aman dan berkelanjutan. Banyak kasus penipuan terjadi karena tidak menggunakan escrow yang tepat, sehingga membiasakan penggunaan escrow adalah nilai tambah yang besar. Format pelaporan juga menjadi poin yang sangat kuat. Dengan adanya standarisasi dalam pengajuan kasus (termasuk detail transaksi, bukti, dan kesimpulan yang jelas), hal ini memudahkan pihak lain untuk meninjau dan memberikan penilaian secara adil. Tanpa struktur yang jelas, thread reputasi biasanya akan berubah menjadi kumpulan tuduhan yang tidak terarah. Satu hal yang dapat lebih meningkatkan sistem ini adalah adanya verifikasi bukti yang lebih ketat serta kemungkinan adanya umpan balik dari komunitas sebelum seseorang dilabeli sebagai penipu, karena tuduhan palsu dapat merusak reputasi sama besarnya dengan tindakan penipuan itu sendiri. Secara keseluruhan, ini adalah langkah positif menuju terciptanya lingkungan transaksi yang lebih aman di board lokal. Jika digunakan dengan baik, sistem ini dapat membantu mengurangi penipuan sekaligus mendorong pengguna untuk bertindak lebih bertanggung jawab dalam setiap transaksi.

Benarkah Sulit Mendapatkan Merit Di SFI?



Pendahuluan
Member-member yang terdaftar pada tahun 2017 atau sebelumnya yang belum mendapatkan status legendary mungkin akan sangat menyesal tidak aktif di forum atau menganggap mendaftar diwaktu yang salah karena terlalu dekat dengan peraturan baru yaitu diterapkannya sistem merit pada tahun 2018 silam. Sistem merit diberlakukan bukan hanya untuk mengurangi spammer namun juga untuk mengurangi jumlah tuyul yang hanya posting laporan bounty untuk naik rank dengan cepat. Tujuan merit untuk menyaring mereka yang hanya fokus pada bounty dan tuyul atau ternak akun.

Dalam prosesnya, tahun 2018 saat awal merit resmi diberlakukan banyak member yang menyerah karena merasa sulit untuk naik rank. Itupun pernah saya alami. Saya secara pribadi menganggap bahwa merit ini akan sulit untuk saya dapatkan. Namun nyatanya juga tidak demikian. lalu bagaimana dengan saat ini? Benarkah sulit mendapatkan merit di SFI?

Saya percaya member yang saat ini masih belum naik rank atau kesulitan mencapai rank yang menjadi targetnya akan memiliki pertanyaan tersebut. Lalu apakah benar demikian? Saya akan sedikit membahasnya, jika dirasa ada yang kurang sesuai silakan member lain untuk mengoreksinya.

Isi
Berikut adalah keluh kesah member yang merasa bahwa mendapatkan merit di SFI itu sangat sulit

Yang menjadi fokus saya adalah, apakah anggapan tersebut adalah anggapan yang benar atau justru menjadi anggapan yang salah? Secara keseluruhan tiga uneg-uneg di atas, itu adalah sebuah salah kaprah atau hanya berdasarkan prasangka member saja. Begitu pula dengan prasangka-prasangka lain seperti:

Terbatasnya Merit Source Lokal
Keberadaan merit source memang penting untuk pendistribusian merit di SFI, namun ini bukan alasan yang 100% benar, meskipun merit source terbatas, bukan berarti tidak bisa mendapatkan merit. Tinggal bagaimana seorang member berusaha untuk mendapatkan merit. SFI sebenarnya menjadi lahan yang bagus untuk mengumpulkan merit secara perlahan namun konsisten walaupun merit source di SFI tidaklah banyak karena beberapa aplikasi dari member aktif untuk menjadi merit source baru tidak dipenuhi. Ini tidaklah menjadi alasan untuk tidak ada yang akan memberi merit di postingan lokal.

Hanya Berputar Pada Circle
Circle, ini sudah menjadi kambing hitam sejak awal merit di berlakukan. Jika member beranggapan merit hanya untuk circle itu benar, maka bagaimana caranya agar member yang belum ada pada circle itu juga bisa naik rank saat ini? Pada dasarnya tidak ada bukti bahwa merit hanya diberikan berdasarkan circle saja. Semua memiliki peluang mendapatkan merit yang sama atau bahkan lebih baik daripada member-member lama sekali pun. Yang pasti bagaimana ia membuat konten untuk SFI dengan konten dan kontribusi positif. Memang, merit terlihat berputar di member tertentu, karena itu terjadi akibat dari member lain hanya menjadi penonton bukan ikut serta mengambil posisi agar juga masuk dalam putaran tersebut.

Standar Tinggi untuk Memberikan Merit
Tidak dipungkiri member dengan smerit tinggi sebagian memang menerapkan standar tinggi untuk memberikan merit, saya pribadi pernah diposisi ini hingga disebut penimbun smerit. Ya, memang ada sebagian yang menerapkan ini, namun bukan berarti tidak ada kesempatan bagi member. Bahkan sejak dianggap penimbun saya memberikan merit lebih mudah. Artinya, tidak semua menerapkan standar tinggi, namun lebih fokus pada value informatif dan konstruktif yang dianggap sudah layak mendapatkan merit. Standar bukan lagi persoalan namun lebih ke value yang diberikan oleh member melalui konten-kontenya.

Konten Harus Panjang di SFI
Ada yang berpikir bikin konten harus panjang lebar, padahal sudah sering dibahas bahwa untuk mendapatkan merit bukan hanya soal panjangnya konten namun kualitasnya. Merit tidak hanya diberikan untuk thread tapi juga post. pemilihan thread dan post yang dihadiahi merit itu berdasarkan penilaian masing-masing orang, jadi jika user A menilai biasa, user B menilai informatif maka user B ini sangat mungkin memberikan merit. kembali pada usaha untuk mendapatkan merit bukan hanya fokus panjang pendeknya kalimat yang dibuat.

Tidak Mendapatkan Perhatian User Global
Ini adalah salah besar, top user global seperti DdmrDdmr, fillippone, LoyceV dan lainnya masih sering terlihat memberikan merit untuk postingan di Local board. DdmrDdmr cenderung memberikan merit jika ada user membagikan data statistik forum. fillippone, LoyceV dan lainnya datang ke local untuk memberikan merit atas translasi thread yang mereka buat. Artinya, konten SFI tidak terbatas akan dihadiahi merit oleh warlok saja, tetapi juga member luar juga akan memberikan apresiasi jika user mau berusaha untuk berkontribusi dengan baik.

Itulah beberapa prasangka bahwa mendapatkan merit di SFI itu sulit dan tidak bisa membawa member untuk naik rank. dan saya berani mematahkan anggaapan bahwa SFI tidak bisa membawa member naik rank. Jika Anda melihat data dari merit dashboard dari DdmrDdmr dan lihat member local, maka semua top user local indo lebih dari 70% merit yang didapat dari total merit yang diperoleh secara global adalah dari local board.

Penutup
Jadi untuk menjawab pertanyaan "benarkah sulit mendapatkan merit di SFI saat ini? jawabannya tidak, merit di local tidaklah sulit untuk di dapat, selama Anda mau mencari dan membuat konten yang berkualitas maka Anda akan mendapatkan merit untuk naik rank. Sejauh ini saya melihat beberapa poin topik yang bisa meningkatkan potensi Anda setidaknya beberapa merit dalam 1 post. diantaranya
disclaimer: Ingat, ini adalah topik-topik yang bisa meningkatkan potensi mendapatkan merit tapi bukan jaminan. Semua kembali pada pemberi merit yang menilai kualitas post atau konten yang Anda buat.

Semoga dengan informasi ini sedikit membuka wawasan dan usaha bagi Anda untuk kembali semangat agar bisa segera naik rank di forum ini.

penyemangat tak resmi yang sering dijadikan pengingat kebanyakan member di forum ini juga jangan sampai dilupakan. kurang lebih kalimatnya seperti ini
Quote
fokuslah pada kualitas kontenmu maka merit akan menghampirimu. mendapatkan merit di SFI itu tidak sulit, yang sulit adalah usahanya.

The person who gives the loan must know about the risk and must verify the account as much as possible before giving the loan. So if he gives a loan to a scammer, an account farmer or a hacked or purchased account, it is completely his personal matter. In this case, if the account is found to be a scammer, an account farmer or a hacked or purchased account, then he will definitely get a red tag. There will be no compromise here. The person who gives the loan gets interest against the loan which is a profit for him, so he will have to take the risk. No account will be considered for an active loan if it is associated with something that is not allowed in the forum.

Quote from: shasan on Today at 09:00:29 AM
Based on the forum rules alt account is allowed. Still few people give negative trust based on their own satisfaction.
Multiple accounts are definitely allowed on this forum, LoyceV also has an Alt but he has declared it and he does not do any activity like merit abuse, signature campaign abuse or spam with his Alt. Allow such Alts here but do not allow Alts to spam

Quote from: Free Market Capitalist on Today at 08:45:33 AM
I’m not sure what the community will do, but I know exactly what I’m going to do: I’ll red-tag people if there’s a reason to do so, regardless of whether they have an active loan. The only thing is, I’m not as active on these issues lately. But given the cases we’ve seen, I’m done letting people who break the rules get away with it—especially since, in most cases, they end up defaulting anyway.
This opinion resonates with me. There have been cases in the past where I refrained from tagging because the lender requested not to tag but I decided I would not do it again. If a tag is warranted, the account will be tagged and any associated loan (or potential defaulting of a loan) is a different matter altogether.

Quote from: stompix on Today at 08:50:29 AM
Tags should be given to everybody, no matter their forum business!
For me, that is the ideal principle that members should be following.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 11:16:58 AM
I try to be conservative with negative feedback, but when I think it's deserved, I not going to to stop myself from tagging someone because of a loan. If that were to become the de facto standard, I wouldn't be surprised if account farmers start taking loan as a guarantee against getting tagged. That's the opposite of what we need.
Sending a message to members that have taken loans that they are exempt from tags because ultimately the lender will suffer with loan defaults, would be massive mistake. That pattern should not be normalised in the forum.

Quote from: The Cryptovator on Today at 11:29:45 AM
Has the lender asked the DT members or community before giving the loan? Then the lender shouldn't request not to tag the abuser or cheater. Taking loans shouldn't be considered abusing licences. Lending isn't forum business, but the trust system implemented by the forum and DT members must have to take care of it.
Ultimately, the lender has taken a risk by giving the loan therefore has to face the consequences in the event the loan is defaulted.

Quote from: yahoo62278 on Today at 03:48:32 PM
IMO if a tag is valid, the loan is a non topic.
That is the basic fact of the matter, the loan should never be factored in when contemplating whether an account deserves a tag or not.

Quote from: Revolution2025 on Today at 04:10:55 PM
JollyGood will always be a jobless attention seeker. Loaning is a risky business, if the lender decides to take the risks of allowing alt accounts to take a loan what is your fucking business. Nothing is wrong with taking a loan using multiple accounts if the lender didn't state that no using of alt account in his loan thread. It will only become an issue if the loan is defaulted by either of the accounts. Even the most famous lender shasan did not state no application with an alt account so why is it a problem to you jobless attention seeking JollyGood. This is a forum that we don't know our real names and identity, loans are supposed to come with a collateral but when a lender ignores and accept a non collateral loan, he should dance to the music that plays thereafter.

If alt account cheats for other reasons, you have the right to red tag them even if they are owing loans.
Why use your alt-account to post?

I would have been better had you posted using your regular (or one of your regular) accounts  Grin

This forum can be so myopic at times.  Getting paid to post isn't the only way to earn money, and being in a signature campaign isn't a requirement to pay beck your debts.  Of course there are people on LoyceV's weekly list who have red-tags who I would trust with thousands of dollars, campaign or not.

If some account is involved in nefarious activity, the person witnessing and exposing that activity has an obligation to the entire community, not just one person among us.  Lending is risky business, and shouldn't be taken lightly.  If one of us chooses to take that risk, the blame for not thoroughly vetting the borrowers is his and his alone.

while all of his "colleagues" were caught abusing the bounty. We can expect further merit exchanges from these accounts to our alternative accounts.
While raising one issue, another possible cheating concern also came up. What makes it more suspicious to me is that the user is not active on the forum but immediately showed up to post right after being mentioned. That part really feels unusual. My question is, when he received 50 merit for such a post, shouldn’t he have been curious himself about why that kind of post got so much merit? Also, since there are links to bounty abuse issues, it raises more doubts and it feels possible that he might have other alternative accounts on the forum.

Yes, I completely agree with you on this. No matter how meticulously a thief steals, he leaves some kind of evidence.

I am a new person in this forum, I am not very knowledgeable about anything, but I am revealing some things based on what I have learned or what has come to my attention. That is, if we look at the merit transactions of the people who have sent merit to CryptoATM, we will see that some people have given their merit repeatedly and all the accounts are similar in terms of transactions.

Especially if we talk about SuperBitMan's account, we will see. Although we did not find SuperBitMan's transactions with CryptoATM, almost all the accounts that have transacted with CryptoATM have transactions with SuperBitMan. It seems to me that SuperBitMan and CryptoATM may have been connected to each other from some point in time. I would like to raise this issue and present one thing to you, that all these accounts may be related to each other and they may be abusing Merit.

 What a record! Two consecutive losses in a row… Cool

.....

 I'm pretty much out of the game, still, leaving some money behind, that won't be
enough to buy the life I lost, hehehe...and had a lot of fun the time I've been in the game,

but I'd like to leave my point of view here.

The way the predictions were being made, allowed other participants to base themselves on the predictions of others and somehow favored the final result, and so, halab had the option to use LoyceV's message publishing tool, and I thought this change was very good, but it was only done in one round, I think it could have continued like this, much fairer, you have until the last day to send and after sending the prediction you can no longer edit, fair, you have until last minute to send, but the problem that had that made Halab no longer use it, was because some did not understand well that the word chabe "Delay=x" was important to have added in the message field, because if not added, the tool understands that, by defined default, when the keyword 'delay' is not added, it automatically adds a delay of 7 days to publish, by default, but this does not matter, since somehow Halab also saw the message and can add it to the final result of the predictions, but the problem is to put the delay lower than the remaining days, where, because the message has been published before the final result, other participants may base themselves on the result already published.

Well, I'm practically out, but you who are still in the game, could ask for the use of
this tool to be continued, the game would be much fairer, and for those who didn't
understand the keyword "Delay-x days" to publish, don't be ashamed to clarify
the doubts and be able to do it right, the first time it was used, I believe that
everyone understood how it works, and the next time will used it,
there would not be so many doubts, although I believe that the use of the tool
is well explained, some may have had doubts, and it doesn't hurt to ask to clarify,
anyway, the use of this tool makes the game much more fairer,
and I believe that you who are still in the game, They should ask to continue using it.

-Thank you Halab for allowing me to participate, and I hope that in the next edition,
I can meet the requirements to be able to register and be able to participate again,
and that many more people can and want to participate.

Thank you, I had a lot of fun here.

And with the astronomical rise in SSD prices due to AI demand, 2TB SSDs (soon to be a minimum hardware requirement for running a full node) are costing upwards of $300.

It's not true, HDD is enough if you already use device with lots of RAM (16GB or more) or you store the UTXO set/chainstate on the SSD. In fact, i still store whole Bitcoin Core files on HDD.

You can forget about running a full node on a 1TB SSD, those will become obsolete in a matter of months as blockchain size surpasses 1TB very soon.
That's not true, it's going to take about 2 years.

But it could be sooner if,
1. You also store the OS on same SSD
2. The SSD have high provisioning.
3. The SSD company advertise using different unit with the OS (1000 vs 1024).

On few cases, combination of number 2 and 3 can reduce the capacity to 900GB.

I would add:

4. You're running one or more apps on the same SSD that use the full node. Some of them can take up a lot of space for themselves.

But point taken. There's still some time left for some nodes running on 1TB drives. But even if it's a year or two, I wouldn't invest in a 1TB drive today if I were building a new system for a node. I'd want something that will run for a decade or more without me having to replace any hardware, re-install OS and all apps, etc.

And good to know that a HDD will be adequate for most users, I wasn't aware of that. I'm gonna have to replace my 1TB SSD soon, will consider the HDD option to keep costs down.

What's the difference exactly because I don't really see any here since either way moderators are the ones executing the ban or is the reason for the ban what classifies it as either autoban or Nuke user.  From what LoyceV said nuking seems to be an entire deletion of the account.

Let me quote two explanations for you

First is Theymos which says it’s just a name

Quote from: theymos on December 11, 2018, 08:53:13 PM

I only changed the message on autobans. ("Autoban" = lingo indicating a type of ban. They're usually not actually automatic.)

And the a broader explanation by BadBear

Quote from: BadBear on December 02, 2015, 04:45:15 PM
There are 2 types of bans.

Autobans. Isn't what it sounds like, it means someone pressed the ban button, but it's automatically carried out, as opposed to be manually entered. Though there is a mod or two running scripts because of the spammers. This results in the message You were banned by a forum moderator, email xxx. Both global mods and admins use this, so it isn't a guarantee it was a moderator, just more likely. I use autoban instead of manual bans for permanent bans because it's faster and more efficient. All bans in the modlog are autobans, and permanent. 

Autobans ban the account involved only, you can still log in and do everything normally, just can't post or pm. It also adds units of evil to the IPs used, a new account created using these IPs will need to pay a fee. Units of evil increase with additional bans. Nuking is essentially an autoban+deletion of posts.

Manual bans are only available to admins, and are generally configured the same way as above, though it's possible to increase the scope of the ban to include things like registering from certain emails/providers, ips, subnets, hostnames, etc. Can also add multiple accounts to the same ban. It's also possible to prevent banned users from logging in at all using the banned account, this will prevent them from being able to read the forum and access pm's too though, so I rarely use it. These result in the customized reason for the ban+duration, insubstantial posts or whatever.



Then as for Nuke user it’s simply a ban to newbies with less activity than 30 and when banned all post are deleted. This is much that I know, both Auto ban user and nuke user the same but deletion of posts is the major difference.

Then under this bans we have
Permanent ban
Temporary ban
Signature ban

The difference was kind of explained above. Both types of bans are handled by the moderators, who have access to do that. A report is made, and the ban option is triggered. Newbies get all their posts deleted, not the account entirely, when they get nuked down, while people with higher ranks are the ones whose accounts are being marked as auto-ban.

It's easier to just say when a user is banned and an entire post is deleted, they are nuked down, while when they just got banned without their post getting wiped out, they are auto-banned.

Quote from: Hatchy on Today at 04:33:07 PM

The only thing that one can try to attain after a legendary rank is just reputation, merits don't matter anymore. I just feel there should be something more to it, so everyone would be willing to compete higher than the legendary rank.  Smiley

Yes if a new rank is added mainly above the legendary I think we will actually be seeing more health competitions coming because just like in the past when it was a thing of bragging rights to get to this highest rank, the new rank will bring back that fun. After the legendary rank the zeal for gaining merits ended except for campaign purposes, I could remember the only time we had fun with those high rank members getting to legendary rank and still getting merits was when we the members were unofficial creating competition for the likes of LEOLEO and LoyceV for who would be first to attain certain merits, since LEO of blessed memory actually left, that also died along with his departure. A new rank will be the only thing to bring such competition again.

My only worry is that lower rank like full member and Senior member will lose more relevance the more just like how member isn’t greatly affected, I think even some campaign managers might be getting rid of some of ranks below Hero member.

Quote from: Nwada001 on Today at 04:17:55 PM
One thing I have observed about both types of bans is this: when a user is said to have been nuked, it's handled by a moderator like always, but all the posts in the user's profile get deleted and banned at the end.
For auto-banning, the same when the profile is reported for breaking forum rules, a ban is being given to the user.
Hmmmm I'm kinda confused here... Is there a chance that the system auto bans  people if they break rules apart from proxy bans and those evil fee stuff? I'm asking because I initially thought proxy bans were the auto ban you guys are referring to.

Quote from: LoyceV on Today at 09:18:10 AM
That would be my guess, with one change: they brute-forced a strong password. If the password would have been weak, it wouldn't have taken them years with (probably) massive resources.
I have my personal doubts about this.  It may be subjectively coming from the distrust I have in the Authorities of my own country and from their lack of interest in solving cases.  My Authorities would probably give up in a matter of hours and never care again.

Do you think it is possible that they kept running a brute force for years or that it may have rather been a semi strong Password they gave up on a long time ago and re attempted in the last months instead?

If the cracked Wallet was obtained in 2019 and they have been continuously attempting a brute force on it since, which is almost SEVEN years, that is crazy.

Pros

I hope you know there are two type of legendary account on the forum. There are accounts that earned their merit from 0 to 1000 and there are legendary accounts that existed before the merit system was introduced, I doubt if an account will be active and earn merit only to attained legendary level and then stop posting because they reach the rank want.
Most often, people stop posting here if they no longer active here, you never can tell what people do outside the forum.

Cons

From my thinking, the cons exceed the pros

Who is going to chase who? Cheesy LoyceV has set the bar so high that the difference is to wide. Assuming 2500 merit is the new benchmark of the new rank, if Theymos agree to it, I'm sure it wouldn't make much difference because we have much people on the forum with more than that merit number. We have about 182 members with more than 2500 merit, more will come when they reach there but Theymos will likely trash this thread usual.

Honestly, I find it much harder to moderate with the new guidelines, since it adds more things I need to consider before I act.
Have you ever seen a Newbie AI spammer who later suddenly stopped spamming and became a contributing user?
Hard to say, but I would lean to no. Then again, I don't keep actual tabs (or a list) on people. More a "I've seen your name a few time and you're using AI again"-type feeling.

Should we sacrifice security for usability?
Who's "we" in this question? You can sacrifice as much security as you want: it's very convenient to keep all your Bitcoin in a mobile hot wallet without password. That makes it very easy to spend your Bitcoin, at the expense of security.
But I'm not doing it, and I'm not recommending anyone to do so either.
Many people just don't pay attention on security until a time they got security issues and their devices, wallets compromised so they lost sensitive information and money. The same with privacy as if people don't care about security, they're careless and very likely they don't care about privacy too.
Quote from: o_e_l_e_o on March 28, 2023, 05:18:25 PM
Absolutely. I have a hot wallet on my phone which is pretty much online 24/7. I've had such a hot wallet for years, which I've spent from multiple times a week, and I have never been hacked and never lost a single satoshi from it. It's entirely possible to have a safe hot wallet. However, I am under no illusion that such a wallet is by far the riskiest wallet I own and is by far the most likely wallet I own to be hacked or exposed to malware. I only ever keep a small daily spending amount of bitcoin in it (certainly no more than 0.01 bitcoin as you say).
