Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities
by
Gifted
on 01/12/2016, 01:49:32 UTC

Bitcoin, the Internet currency beloved by computer scientists, libertarians, and criminals, is no longer invulnerable. As recently as 3 years ago, it seemed that anyone could buy or sell anything with Bitcoin and never be tracked, let alone busted if they broke the law. “It’s totally anonymous,” was how one commenter put it in Bitcoin's forums in June 2013. “The FBI does not have a prayer of a chance of finding out who is who.”


The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and other law enforcement begged to differ. Ross Ulbricht, the 31-year-old American who created Silk Road, a Bitcoin market facilitating the sale of $1 billion in illegal drugs, was sentenced to life in prison in February 2015. In March, the assets of 28-year-old Czech national TomᚠJiříkovský were seized; he’s suspected of laundering $40 million in stolen Bitcoins. Two more fell in September 2015: 33-year-old American Trendon Shavers pleaded guilty to running a $150 million Ponzi scheme—the first Bitcoin securities fraud case—and 30-year-old Frenchman Mark Karpelès was arrested and charged with fraud and embezzlement of $390 million from the now shuttered Bitcoin currency exchange Mt. Gox.


The majority of Bitcoin users are law-abiding people motivated by privacy concerns or just curiosity. But Bitcoin’s anonymity is also a powerful tool for financing crime: The virtual money can keep shady transactions secret. The paradox of cryptocurrency is that its associated data create a forensic trail that can suddenly make your entire financial history public information.

The faster you hash or mine if you will, will increase your daily payout. I started at 5.50 THS making $4.00 a day. Now I hash at 12 THS and I make about $11.00. Also buying hash speed regularly, will help you fight off the increasing mining difficulty.This site is working for me.

Re: Is CHINA CONTROLLING Bitcoin?
by
Gifted
on 01/12/2016, 01:07:05 UTC
In February 2013, China became the second largest active Bitcoin market globally as measured by wallet downloads. This has attracted new Bitcoin based businesses to China and what could be a massive market for the developing virtual currency. An example is Bitfash, which was launched in April 2013 and became the first online shopping platform for clothes to accept Bitcoin as payment; one of its key target markets is China.  Can the Chinese consumer shift the value of the virtual currency as they did with gold earlier in 2013? What will the government eventually inevitably do to control the currency? It could be a potentially huge market, but will largely depend on its payment function development, the attitude of the Chinese government and the stability of Bitcoin's value.

Re: PPC Ad Media, Bitcoin Advertising Network PPC & CPM
by
Gifted
on 01/12/2016, 01:03:15 UTC
In the world of PPC, it is a great strategy to do exactly what your highest performing competitor is doing, but do it a little better.
Don’t get me wrong! There is always room to formulate unique strategies that will blow the competition away.
To get an idea about the targeting you can do in Adwords, here are a few examples…
Keywords: This targeting method has been the bread and butter of Adwords for many years. Keywords give advertisers the ability to choose what search terms they want their ads to show for. Any business can use this method to show up at the top of Google for nearly any search related to their service or product.
Remarketing: Getting someone to your website is a feat in itself, but getting them to come back can be a battle that is often lost. Luckily, building a remarketing list can easily solve this problem. You can show both display and search ads to people who have visited your website.
Managed Display Placements: Display ads sometimes get a bad rep due to poor performance. This is often a result of the pages Google automatically chooses to show your ads on. Managed Display Placements lets the advertiser choose what website, and even what page on a website they want to show their ads on.
Ad Scheduling: Showing ads 24/7 can be costly for any business and will most likely lower the ROI. Ad scheduling lets you show your ads during peak times of the day and even lets you adjust bids during these times. This feature comes in handy when you are running a call only campaign and have people by the phone during specific hours.
Negative Keywords: This is a form of anti-targeting that can plug up leaks in an account. By stacking negative keywords into a campaign, you can save your precious budget from searches that you are not looking for. A common example of a negative keyword is the term “job”.  Having “job” in your negative list will prevent job searchers in your industry from clicking on your ad.
All of these targeting methods can be used to work together so that your business is part of the discussion during every move a potential customer makes online.
I think you are starting to realize how much control you can have with PPC advertisement, but hold onto your horses, there is still one more key ingredient.
 You Can Track Their Every Move
Some of the most advanced tracking in advertisement can be done using PPC.
Knowing exactly what keywords, days of the week, and hours of the day are resulting in conversions is how you make money using PPC. Without this knowledge you could be advertising in the dark and completely missing your target audience.

In my opinion http://ppcadmedia.com has great promise and as a fact is backed by a multi million dollar cooperation .

Having a stable source of revenue is vital for the operation of any website, and advertising networks are one way for up and coming websites to ensure that they’re getting their fair share of the revenue that’s out there to be made. I personally love this Ad network.

Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon?
by
Gifted
on 01/12/2016, 00:52:25 UTC
In the financial realm, low risk carries the price of poor long-term returns. The U.S. dollar’s value falls over time at a very slow and consistent rate. In exchange for providing a good short-term store of value, good money is a bad long-term investment.

Those seeking to replace fiat currency with bitcoin should focus on low volatility.

Easy $100 A Day – Perfect For Noobs
 

The thought of starting an online business and turning it into a profitable company that provides you with both financial freedom and independence, is appealing to many. Some want to be able to be their own boss, others want to be able to spend more time with their family, and many want to be able to travel the world while they run their online business.

When I started out, I had no money to invest, so quickly had to learn how to make money from nothing. This was one of the first methods that worked for me, and I’ve been using it ever since as my various online businesses have grown. I started with around 100 bucks.
 
A lot of people assume that they can’t make money online because they don’t know how to build websites or rank websites. Well, if you have always wanted to test the online marketing waters but didn’t know where to start, you are in luck. This is something that can be done by someone with:

– Little to no technical knowledge (me when I started)
– No coding or SEO knowledge (me when I started)
– No experience with running a website before (me when I started)
– Around $100 in start up cash (you could invest more or less but this is what I recommend)........

Re: FaucetHub.io - BETA! Prepare your bodies.
by
Gifted
on 29/11/2016, 17:48:18 UTC
I'll say this once and most likely only once, so that people are clear on my views about this "account" vs "no account/anon" thing. Hopefully by the end you'll understand exactly where I'm coming from and why I chose this route.

Let's look at anon accounts for a moment
First of all I would like to thank FaucetBox for their project and what they brought to the community over these past years. Thanks to them my faucets are better off. I really respect what theys stood for up until now, but I have to talk about the concept and it's flaws for a little bit.

FaucetBox uses anon accounts. That is, any user with a crypto currency address can go to any faucet or website which uses faucetbox and request a claim. That user does not need an account, and they will get the coins without needing any kind of second step or hassle in between the faucet and them receiving the payment. This is how everyone (users and owners) is used to the way the current "faucet industry" works. On the surface there's nothing wrong with this and it's pretty convinient, but convinience comes at a price.

There's a lot of good things about anon accounts:

  • Is it easy for users? yes
  • Is it easy for new users? yes
  • Is it easy for faucet owners users? yes

You might think the above points are all you need to swing towards keeping the "anon" accounts side of this, but these points are exactly why it's so dangerous for th faucet industry.

But mex, my users need it easy
Do they really? Let's take a look at this: if it's easy for users it's easy for bots too.

Many people are trying to setup a new faucet today using faucetbox's "faucet in a box" script, and many of them will fail and have their faucet emptied quick. Others may have a bigger budget and can afford to stick at it a bit longer. All of these sites suffer from bot attacks. And of course what happens is they go and moan to faucetbox about their script and bots, and how they need better anti bot etc. They seem to expect that faucetbox will release a magic update which contains the best anti-bot they ever saw, that their balance can be protected and reserves for the rightful users and claimers.

Everyone by now knows the problem which bots cause. They look like regular users, they drain the faucet owners balance faster, they don't contribute to advertisement revenue, they dirty the faucet with bad IP, they give the site a bad traffic rating, they impact globally on analytics and google adsense's view of the site, and many more problems.

  • Captchas? - can be bypassed
  • IP addresses block? - bypass by VPNs and proxies 1000 times over
  • User agent? - can be faked
  • HTTP request headers? - can be faked/forged
  • Bitcoin address blacklist? - it takes 1 second or less for bots to generate another 1000 addresses

I've been running my faucets for almost a year now. I have a a lot of anti-bot mechinisms, honey pots and traps all set up to try and catch bots. In addition to automated methods I can spot bots on my sites through social engineering, looking through and chatting with users to know if they are botting or not from their behaviour and how they talk. Not every faucet owner can do this or has the time for it. There is one thing I learned the hard way: there is no real antibot.

The fight against bots is an on-going struggle which will go on forever. Especially in this day and age where it's possible to hide your IP and completely automate your entire web browser session to manipulate a site, bypass a captcha and appear exactly like a regular user.

For the above reasons the typical "faucet in a box" faucets will fail very quickly without advanced knowledge of bot detection or a custom script.

Having said all of the above, that's no reason to give up. It's better to act in a preventative way than not to act at all on the problem.

It's all about incentive
This brings me back to the original point that if its easy for users its easy for bots. If there is an incentive, however big or small, and its a quick and easy method, they will exploit it on a mass scale. "Faucet in a box" script and other similar scripts are widely used, making them an easy target. Someone can make a bot for 1 site, and it would work on all sites using the same script. They don't even need an account, it's just rinse and repeat.

So... how do accounts solve the problem?
I'll come straight out and say that they don't solve the problem, they greatly reduce the problem. Here's why: making an account on faucethub is pretty easy, but it requires a valid email address. Before they make any withdraw they have to click the link in the email and activate. This is one extra step in the process that all bots need to take before they can exploit a FaucetHub faucet. This is not a particularly hard task for a bot to do, however it does take away some incentive from a lot of botters to try doing it on a mass scale.

Having user accounts allows for a lot of other protection to be built into the platform to have the inner workings tie together multiple users, weed out shared IP addresses, find malicious user-agents, mass ban the use of one-time email addresses and bad providers, and mass ban the use of multi-wallets and all sorts of other mechanisms that are not possible without an account.

Ok, I understand why you offer accounts, but why are they forced upon every user?
If they were not forced (like other providers who have accounts as an optional thing), then we might as well not have them at all. Simply becuase botters wont make an account if they don't have to.

Is it slightly annoying for users? Yes. Is it slightly annoying for new users? Yes. Is it slightly annoying for faucet owners? Not really.

You might think that a faucet needs to be easily accessible to all users and they should be able to get their claim in 1 click with nothing else needed. Name any other site which lets you do anything useful without an account? Bank account, paypal, ebay, even this forum. They all require accounts and valid verification to use the service.

Users don't understand "magic"
A lot of faucet owners think its easy for users to use a faucet "without knowing they are using faucetbox". They are worried about user adoption and adding more steps into the processes. I think this statement is false. With all the users I've come across with my faucets there's seen so many who contact me with these questions, and I'm sure I'm not the only faucet owner who deals with this.

"How do I make an account on faucetbox?"
"Can you send direct to my wallet, I don't have an account on faucetbox"
"I did a withdraw and my coins are not in my wallet its been 12 hours!!!"
"I made an account but my balance is 0 at faucetbox where are my coins!"
"I did a withdraw to faucetbox, but I dont have an account there?Huh??"

The service that faucetbox provided is truly "magic" in the eyes of some users. They don't understand what the need or purpose for faucetbox is. They don't understand that an account does not exist on faucetbox for users, despite the site being covered with info stating they don't need it. They don't know where their coins have gone despite reading that they went to faucetbox.com.

What they do understand, whether they are new or not to bitcoin is something like this: "You got $5 on PayPal". Why do they understand this? Because they know they have an account at PayPal, and therefore they are instantly aware of where their money is and how to manage it. They won't need to ask those questions above to faucet owners OR to faucethub.

---

That's a pretty long take on the situation, and I hope that people are clear on why I chose the "must have an account" route for FaucetHub. If anyone has any suggestions for the system I'm still open to hear it and discuss it, but don't expect the same kind of response in future when I've already made the above post.

This reply is aimed at everyone who PMd me trying to convince me that faucethub should be a carbon copy of faucetBOX.
Get over it. Faucet industry is going to change when FH launches.

Sorry for the long post, I don't have any potatos.
This is why i chose Xapo in the beginning but even now they still get through. The problem with Xapo scripts was they were no management and updates to security . I have tried myself to patch security But in the end The only way to stop bots was to manual blacklist emails, ip's and BTC address. very big pain in the ass because they have to steal from you to ban them. I have shut down my Xapo Faucet until i see another option to fighting bots.

I've been using Xapo for 3 years now. I have come across a lot of errors. first of all the app is completely useless and has major bugs in it for both android and Iphone, i use both. The website sometimes takes me 3 times to log in and sometimes logs me out to log back in just switching wallets less than 1 min . I do feel they are safe but over all i give them a 6 for software interface friendly.

Re: Dark marketplaces?

on 26/11/2016, 02:20:44 UTC
Just wondering what they sale at dark market? What are the products?
I am totally unknown about this market.. So I am very much interested to know...  Roll Eyes


you know it's dark market,so they're selling things that is forbidden by the government such as drugs, credit card data, and anything like that
even they're offering service like killing a person even though i don't know the truth behind it and whether it's real or just bullshit
There are many things forbidden by governments some make sense and some don't.
I can understand why hiring a hitman should be against the law but i cant understand why taking deugs should be against the law. Anyone that takes drugs is only harming themselves.
Since when did the governments earn the right to govern what you want to put into your own body?

Darknet markets in my opinion are just giving the people back some free choice.
If the choise were free countries wouldnt be against those, people are paying an extra ammount then if those things were regulated and allowed. Its funny talk about drugs when our medicine does use them to produce pills, sure we need some control, but why arent people allowed to buy those legal instead need to hide and use without control drugs? The dark markeplaces just allow people to use and consume unlimited quantity without any control that provides colateral for the body and brain, besides the really not allowed things to be sold.

So far I understood that I need tor to access deep/dark web.
and I have already downloaded & installed tor.. Its looks similar to firefox....

Now my question is, how can I access a site by tor.
Should I simply write the url of the site? as we do at normal browsers?

Can you guys mention some site links?
Here is the Darknet search engine link. It works just like google but only for the darknet http://grams7enufi7jmdl.onion/ can only access this link through TOR
My advice would be to use a vpn then use ToR for better security or one more layer to the onion

When people say trading what are they referring to? Are they talking about  trading physical idem's for bitcoins or are they talking about going to something like Yobit and trading alt-coins to get bitcoins . Please explain what everyone is taking about in more details please.

Most likely, people mean trading bitcoins for fiat. On European exchanges people trade bitcoins for dollars and euro, such as BitStamp and BTC-e. On Chinese exchanges it is dollars, for example, at Bitfinex, and yuan on the majority of other exchanges located in China. Minor local exchanges may be trading their local currencies, obviously.

There are also a few altcoin exchanges such as Bittrex and Poloniex
So you mean like buying with Fiat low in the night and selling high in the morning like i always see im the charts? Its funny because ive always had that idea in the back of my head but it just seemed to risky. Any advice anyone can give like where to trade and what to look for?
