Re: Poloniex Preparing for an Exit Scam! DO _NOT_ SEND COINS THERE!
by
Lagniappe
on 06/01/2018, 10:53:17 UTC
Despite the fact that I have been a customer with them for almost 4 years, Poloniex is refusing to allow the withdrawal over $2,000 worth of coins from my account. Yes, I have a Legacy Account. Yes, I created a Support Ticket over 1 month ago. Now they are just sitting on my money and there is no way to contact a real human being there. So whatever you do, DON'T USE POLONIEX. They will likely just sit on your money until they run away with it all.

Want proof? Here you go:

They will gladly take your money, even though I don't really understand what this means. 12 of 12 confirmations and still pending... Hmmm...

https://i.imgur.com/GYmvTgY.png

Here is me trying to withdraw BTC from my XRP trade, after clicking the verification email link to confirm its me and I really do want to make this withdrawal. As you can see, the withdraw request was made over 24 hours ago and despite what is says in their "Support" section (what a corruption of the word), I have not been contacted by anybody. Obviously they have my email address, so why no follow-up?

https://i.imgur.com/5pldnKv.png

Here's me re-visiting the withdraw request link in my email, just so you can see that I actually received the email, and I clicked it again thinking maybe I didn't click it the first time (even though I did), after all, it says "Awaiting Approval" for my withdrawal status.

https://i.imgur.com/BNIQ0xw.png

Here's what Poloniex has to say after I clicked the link in my email. "Oops" is right. Assholes. (Them, not you.)

https://i.imgur.com/1y0Hjlz.png

Finally, here's an example of how slow and useless their support team is. I would say this is proof they are either readying for an exit scam or else practicing fractional reserve banking, which means they don't actually have the coins to send me. As you can see I created these tickets an entire month ago and have received NO RESPONSE WHATSOEVER from them.

https://i.imgur.com/d4t6ljr.png

No telephone number. No email address. Nothing to do except for sit and wait and pray.

TL;DR - DON'T USE POLONIEX OR COUNT ON THEM TO OFFER _ANY_ BIT OF SUPPORT!

Relax. They are not scammers, I've had more than that locked up and was out of my account for over a week and a half. Back and forth emails. The best way I can describe their customer support would be, super slow military security. Make sure you follow all the instructions. If you fuck up, it will slow the process down considerably.

I don't believe any nation will ban a top cryptocurrency for very long. Whatever the amount of time it takes to get a bribe in there. I'd imagine a ruling would be done after people involved with said coin had a chance to bribe said individual, and this is why we don't hear about many bannings. The politicians you hear badmouting certain coins could just be looking for a handout themselves.

Seems like business is done this way in many industries.

Re: You dont like cryptocitties? Try Ethereum pokeon game Ethermon
by

on 22/12/2017, 00:27:18 UTC
I have a few questions regarding ethermon.


1. If I pay for one Etheremon, will I be able to sell it again? Or do is my money lost/traded for that etheremon forever?


2. Are Etheremon directly linked to MEW? Meaning that if I get one etheremon and just forget it, will I get the gained Ethereum automaticly. Or do I have to go to the etheremon site to collect it?


3. Any information on the Ethermon battles/ shop? What they contain?


Thx in advance.Smiley

1. Yes. The wallet on the website that you get (I recommend using Metamask) has instructions on how to cash out, involving sending a transaction worth 0 ETH to a specific address different from the trainer address.
2. No. You have to send the transaction I refer to in 1.
3. I snagged 2 Vibes, I was going to get the thing that eats grass and lays around all day that's 1 Eth, but didn't. Don't really know a whole lot about pokemon in general, but there's lots of buzz about this.

The vibes will earn me, .002 Eth, every time someone new buys a Vibe. Someone bought a new one earlier and I checked my account, it had the extra eth in it.

Re: Monaco Card Bounty Program - Earn Reward For your Support

I am highly interested in bringing information about this technology to the public. It would be interesting if you offered 'benefits' for leaving bitcoin or whichever crypto inactive on the card. Why? Just think about it - it wouldn't have to be a large bonus or incentive, but SOMETHING. It would help to have incentives for both activity and inactivity. If customers knew they got SOMETHING. even a t-shirt. 1 shirt for leaving crypto on a card, rather than penalized, it would be adopted by the masses moreso.  it would make members feel like they were in a club. Imagine if all of those ethereum founders got shirts.  I'd like some eth shirts. quality heavyweight fabric eth shirts. maybe with a diamond and a guy holding a bag and a pick.



 -   Back when I was blue collar, pressure washing houses for a living, one thing I learned about people is that they all love something for free - I remember the exact job I learned it on - wrote up a fast estimate and walked it to  a homeowner and 'FRONT FENCE:FREE' all across the front of it sold him 100% on the job. We like free stuff. Good Chinese / Japanese/ Korean business folks understand it too. {[Edited between asterisks: 12:18pm- added good]}  Certain *good* companies include an extra offering, even if it is bs. a great example is, from aliexpress, micro usb cords. I order them and a certain company gives me a little green velcro cable wrapper, for free. Wasn't in the deal, but it's free. the power of free is huge. you just have to be unreasonable with what it actually is, but not too unreasonable. All good businesses know this, and that's why everything that's free or super cheap, is bullshit,.

Re: Selling Iphone 7+ SuperClones (Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge also available)
by

on 29/05/2017, 19:58:08 UTC
Yeah maybe should have read the post first. Even though they are clones, that is not a good price at all. When I went to China recently, people in the counterfeit markets were selling them for 100-150 US dollars depending on the quality.

^^ Vixmore is right Smiley
I always buy my phones from china... I never pay more than $160 for a phone.
At this moment, i'm using the umi super.. I bought it at around ~€150, it includes a 5.5 inch 2.5D Arc Screen,  Android 6.0 (upgrade to android 7 available), 64bit Octa Core 2.0GHz processor, 13.0MP Camera, 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM,Accelerometer, Compass, Fingerprint Scanner,...

I do buy actual chinese brands, not clones or replicas. If you buy a replica, you have a reasonable chance your country's customs will seize the phones. If you buy a genuine chinese product, the only risk you take is having to pay import duties.

I wish the OP good luck in his sale thread tough... I guess that if you really want a replica of an iphone, the cost will probably be higher than a genuine chinese brand.

I've been taking a look at the Xiaomi with the deca core processor, to maybe get as a standby phone. It's supposed to be a note knockoff, but I noticed the home button isn't depressable. if it is, it's different than the note I have.

My primary is a Note 4 with a 10,000mah battery. those xiaomis on ali look intriguing.

Well, I suppose we must agree to disagree then! See, I believe that it's negative to freely share the best ideas, if they directly deteriorate earnings. It's a positive thing for the crypto community, to be 'secretive', to an extent. Otherwise, difficulty will be ruined too quickly; it is definitely a positive, and I appreciate the secrecy. I don't mind finding out the hard way, story of my life.
Are you confusing individuals being secretive with a community being secretive? As already stated, this community isn't secretive at all, infact all new innovation in software spreads like wildfire, and most do directly impact earnings.

There are folks running 9-10 card rigs, with undervolted cards, but you just don't hear about it nor see DIY threads because they have the difficulty in mind.
So if you don't see or hear about them, how do you know they exist? Did you dream them up?

One has to assume that every successful setup isn't  shared on the site. You don't agree?  


This community has been very open about sharing most of their trade secrets even, so I wouldn't agree.
8 card rigs exist, but only 2-3 people have the skills needed to make them, and even they have let the cat out of the bag on several occassions, you can run 8 cards on linux with minor tweaks.
I have not, in my year and a half on these forums, heard of a 10 card rig, so its too well kept a secret to be possible.
I did read that someone managed to get 10 cards detected in Linux a couple of days ago but that was a noob account and he hasnt shared any image or proof, so I do not trust that information yet.

Some enterprising members like Jstenfanop are developing 8 card modules that can be added in pairs to run a total of 16 cards off of essentially one system, but that's specialized hardware, and its still in production.

Well, I suppose we must agree to disagree then! See, I believe that it's negative to freely share the best ideas, if they directly deteriorate earnings. It's a positive thing for the crypto community, to be 'secretive', to an extent. Otherwise, difficulty will be ruined too quickly; it is definitely a positive, and I appreciate the secrecy.

Try this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1854250.0  It is still in early stages, but Fullzero is committed to making Nvidia more accessible for miners.  He was the person I purchased my first mining rig from and has been outstanding with helping me learn through the last 6 months.

I learned everything I know the exact same way. I plan to teach a younger person the same exact way. The gift of knowledge is an awesome one. The guy I learned from watched me do just about everything wrong you could do wrong, super tolerant. When I started the process, I was a Windows baby, now, I'm a WhoBuntu.

Re: Ethereum: Good alt or stay away?
by

on 10/04/2017, 19:45:31 UTC
In my own opinion, I would still stay in Ethereum because I beleived in this coin will still move and increasi its price in the market. Ehtereum as far as I know is one of the top lists in the market so I will still stay in eth.

I always say, 'ask yourself which coin has something unique unlike any of the others' and your answer is always Ethereum. With it comes the heavyweight respect of the most corporate respected worldwide coin...at least for business sense. I'd own lots of Bitcoin if I had more money. (My money would look like this: 70% Ethereum, 20% Bitcoin, 10% USDT) BTC whales control Ethereum, as BTC holders were at the Ethereum ICO. The only real negative of Bitcoin, other than it's speed, is that it's developer being absent will throw off lots of old money; with Etheruem you have a respected face and team behind it.

Re: The second batch of PandaMiner B3 Plus Pre-sale coming soon!

1)the reason why should pick you and

I'm fascinated with this feat of engineering more than I am in it for anything else, you have my word on that; in my spare time, I have been researching the makings of your Pandaminer. While it would completely solve all of my mining woes, I am more interested in the bigger picture. What I have discovered thus far, is that the Pandaminer is the solution to large state institutions in hotter climates becoming involved in crypto mining.  That said again, those large institutions, universities, prisons, etc closer to the equator that are on the fence about mining cryptocurrency with a portion of their computer programs would be convinced to make the choice to have a crypto program, if shown something like the Pandaminer, as 99% of the reason they would say no to such a thing would be the heat generated by armies of standard 6 card rigs.

 I run a small baby farm with 18 R9 Sapphire Nano cards on 3 rigs, (Ubuntu 14.04.3, fglrx 15.30 drivers)  I just got a degree from a local college, and likely won't even use this degree because of how cryptocurrency has taken over my life and my interests. Cryptocurrency has changed my goals. When I got started, I was running a pressure washing / painting business while going through school to get a better job. I've changed my plan and at age 34, potentially see myself becoming a millionaire before age 40, provided I play the cards right.  I'm choosing to invest in mining operations; fiance is worried about stability, but I'm not. I'm not, because I'd rather try and fail, then be afraid to ever try.

Literature from the era of piracy in the Caribbean shows that many of the best pirates have had the dilemma of their loved ones giving them grief for participating. "You are insane, for building such an immense pirate ship!" Their wives would say. I am quite certain all of my fellow brothers and sisters involved in cryptocurrency have dealt with this, because it's different and our families love us. It is human nature to be afraid of the unknown, it is ominous especially considering a loved ones future. I have chosen to go with my gut and continue forward with this path; my gut has yet to fail me in the making of any such decision, including the one I made last year to jump in Ethereum mining with both feet in early March. Should've been going with my gut long ago - it's screaming at me to buy as many of these GEN II models you're willing to sell me. After all, I have some extra money now. I'm willing to purchase the unit you want me to run the tests on, if you'd like. I would like to purchase between two and ten of these rigs.

One thing that holds constant among those pirates is that the best ones stayed true to their visions regardless of their situations at home, they ended up doing what they wanted because they couldn't face going to sleep at night without trying.  Whether it was joining a pirate crew or building their own ship, they all had to make the choice to go after their vision. That era, just like the gold rush, undoubtedly had many men arguing with their loved ones about pursuing the treasures ahead. My response to them was, and always will be, that you cannot hit the bullseye unless you throw darts. My next dart will be comprised of some Pandaminer GEN II's!

2)how you can make a perfect review of PandaMiner GEN II.

Before I touch on how I will present my perfect review of the PandaMiner GEN II, I must tell you what I foresee for such technology. The PandaMiner GEN II is a marvel of engineering and has yet to be fully properly received, and this is because cryptocurrency mining is not as commonplace as it should be. Just like search engines weren't as commonplace in 2004, when Google was founded. This technology is what will solve the equation of major American universities in hot climates being hesitant  to be participating in cryptocurrency mining projects. As an individual who has daily first hand experience with a local large universities' staff members and regularly talks to the top head of the physics department there, I can assure you that this technology is what will make large crypto operations acceptable to fund at these large universities. By largely solving the heat portion of the equation, especially in southern universities (I am from Louisiana, a very hot mining climate.) you really exceed your bargaining power in any kind of a deal with the treasury department. I am actually participating in a summer research program and will be exposed to these people at this university, these same people that have the power to green light any such mining operation. Imagine selling 200 or 300 Pandaminer GEN III's if you were making them in bulk for major US universities. ( Like LSU ! ) They have funded many inferior projects, and that's exactly how it would happen.

    I have a Youtube channel pertaining to my former business and have experience evaluating within a small timeframe. I know what you need to tell people to get their attention, and am very familiar with cryptocurrency, ubuntu and linux. I will touch on all the important talking points I plan on elaborating on in video 2, during video 1, briefly. Along with a well-done text and photo review, you can expect 2 video reviews, I recommend letting me do something around 90 seconds  to 2 minutes for one video, and maybe another five minute video for people who are 'really' interested. This would be the video that locks in a potential buyer, it would be treated as such. In the video review, I will have  a complete power/temperature chart corresponding to each test.  I will be presenting in-box temperatures as well as direct card temps, I am able to do this with usb powered thermocouples. If you wanted to test Ethereum and Zcash mining processes, at 0 - 15 - 30 - 45- 60 minute intervals, I will document the changes in temperature, hashrate, etc. You can expect charts, and I would also like to undervolt the GPUs and run another test to compare the average hashrates to. I will condense the 5 minute video's conclusion to a point where both large and small customers would both be sold on the tech.

Norman
