Re: 硬件钱包:最安全的自托管选择

您的加密货币的安全性取决于您如何保存私钥。

现在您应该知道,私钥的主要威胁源于互联网连接。 因此,首先应该确保私钥始终处于离线状态。

UnionKey:三大安全支柱

加密钱包需要在这两者之间取得完美平衡:既能让您的密钥处于离线状态,又要方便使用。 理想情况下,加密钱包还必须提供透明度,完整显示交易详情,这样您就无需盲目签名。为实现这一目标,UnionKey 创建了一个由三大支柱组成的生态系统。

1) UnionKey冷钱包:保护您的私钥

UnionKey冷钱包是一款硬件钱包,可在完全离线的环境中生成私钥,并时刻安全保管私钥。

将您的私钥与互联网连接隔离开来,让私钥远离黑客攻击和数字威胁。 无论骗术多么高明,只要私钥保存在 UnionKey 设备中,就没有人能够获得您的私钥。

将恢复短语保密

使用热钱包时,您必须在线生成恢复短语。 这种情况下,您的资金从一开始就可能陷入危险,因为您无法知道是否有人看到了您的恢复短语,无论是远程窥视还是就在您身后。

而 UnionKey 则是在设备自已身上生成秘密恢复短语。 这意味着没有人可以通过间谍软件远程窥视,或在您身后偷偷抄下。 从一开始就确保了恢复短语的安全性,您可以完全放心。

验证每笔交易

最后,您的 UnionKey 可作为交易的双重身份验证。 每一次钱包交互都需要在该设备上进行确认。 因此,没有人可以与您的加密货币远程交互,而使用数字钱包则有可能远程交互。

2)UnionKey 应用程序:查看和管理投资组合

UnionKey 应用程序是一个在线界面,您可以在简单易用的界面上查看和管理所有加密资产。 因此,无论您是想发送或接收加密货币,还是只是查看账户余额,均可通过 UnionKey 应用程序轻松完成。同时,您的密钥也安全保存在该硬件设备上。

3) UnionKey 应用程序目录:告别盲签名

让您签署的每笔交易都完全透明是UnionKey 的使命之一——这就是我们集成应用程序目录的原因。

使用集成应用程序实现透明签名

对于集成的每个应用程序,您都可以在 UnionKey 设备的屏幕上查看智能合约交易的全部详情。

防篡改的可信任显示屏

与计算机屏幕或热钱包界面不同,UnionKey 的可信任显示屏不会被任何人或物篡改,因此您可以相信屏幕上显示的每一个细节。 这些特性意味着不再不确定,不再盲签名!

这是提供加密货币透明度的绝对前沿。 任何其他设备或系统都无法在您签署智能合约时提供这么高的确定性。

UnionKey:Web3 的安全基线

UnionKey 为您确保加密货币安全。

First thing I see is "CAN I WITHDRAW MY WINNINGS WITHOUT ANY HASSEL?" and then check KYC rules and lastly this might be a vey unpopular opinion but I like to see the UI of website because if i am willing to loss my money in there atleast make it visually appealing so it doesn't look so bad after all.

Same thing with withdrawal in other currencies. List supported ones and include international, not just dollar and bitcoin.

Many online casinos also get more users when they offering customer chatbot support in international languages, more than English.

Re: [ANN][DCR] Decred - Community Governance | Bitcoin Devs | Lightning Network

After Decred management team pulled a scam with miners, everyone knows this project governance is a sham.



The core team lead by companyzero owns a majority of the supply since Day 1. The _governance_ is a sham process to avoid accountability for Jake Yocom Piatt and Jonathan Zeppettini, and evade their legal responsibility. Everyone can cast a vote, but they will veto it because they each control millions of DCR. Time to reveal their master plan steps:



Step 1 Premine 1.6M DCR coins, and keep half
Step 2 Create exemption to allow companyzero with unlimited treasury billing without needing public stakeholder approval
Step 3 Implement Coinjoin privacy to hide the whale holdings by Jake Yocom Piatt, Jonathan Zeppettini and companyzero
Step 4 Make a fake "retirement" post on Decred blog saying they are _stepping down_


Step 1-3 are done now, only step 4 remaining. Soon you will see a fake retirement post on Decred Blog. In reality, they will continue to hold millions of the coins supply, and full control of the project governance.


The privacy feature hides the whale holdings now, but we have data from 2017. You can see that a solo whale is holding 400,000 DCR tokens. This address is alive since the premine. They can use privacy to hide their current balance, but a simple staking since 2017 means 5x of the rewards.


2 Million DCR guaranteed minimum, unless they bought more via the DEX. Check it out yourself. This is from 2017:

You can see the label of solo staking, and you can still verify the addresses in block explorer

Re: Decred scandal? Project Founder owns more than 2M DCR coins

In the first place, having a "veto" right is the thing that is where the loophole began. Sooner or later, I believe it is inherently prone to centralization power.

As the allegation arises, this kind of problem is tricky to overcome if the communities of the project itself are not strong and united. Even if they are persistent toward keeping the project/community stable and sustainable, hard-forking the project is the only way to go if the alleged developer itself does not cooperate.

They delivered on non-trivial software innovations, but it's sad to see human ego and a centralization of power take over again.

The hybrid pow/pos model is experimental, and so does Bitcoin itself. If the system/project design can not sustain the longevity of a decentralized consensus or processes, there must be a flaw that deem the project not to withhold the decentralization.


Good catch - many people know the truth after what they did.

According to the evidence, up to 85% of their "staked" are held by Dev affiliated groups. 

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5479728.0


There is now names posted of the top 2 Decred whales who decided to keep the miners coins for themselves:

  • Jake Yocom Piatt (holds up to 3 million DCR)
  • Jonathan Zeppettini (holds more than 1 million DCR)


The Decred governance voting is only a show. You can vote how you want, but this group can veto anything and they call the real shots.

More proof that Alt coins are scams

If your one of the holders then might thinking of changing into other altcoins since this could be dominantly control by them and whatever they wanted to do with the project. Governance my ass if this process is where their protocol lies upon. Imaginr that every votes on what the progress would be turn out a majority fecision. How could the public holders would like that?



Yes The Decred coin voting is a rigged game, where the big founder whales can change the rules to benefit themselves. The small holders and miners are fools for them.


Since the Decred founder owns 2-3 million DCR, they must be getting over 150,000 DCR year (conservative), with the current DCR price of $20 USD. This is a multi million scheme to make themselves rich.


I wonder if they are paying taxes on this or evading the laws like criminals.

Re: Bitcoin faces risk of protocol-level censorship as miners under increasing regul

Carole House, a former White House director for cybersecurity and secure digital innovation, who is now executive in residence at Terranet Ventures, spoke at the DeCenter Spring Conference at Princeton University in April, proposing exactly that.

In her speech, House suggested that it would be great if miners, as well as validators of proof-of-stake blockchains, came together and agreed not to mine OFAC-blacklisted transactions, as well as not to build upon blocks with such transactions. She also noted that having as much hashpower as possible in the U.S., where miners have to comply with the sanctions, would help make that vision a reality.  


https://www.theblock.co/post/267759/bitcoin-faces-risk-of-protocol-level-censorship-as-miners-under-increasing-regulatory-pressure

so now they not only don't want people mining transactions on the OFAC list but if they happen to make it into a block they don't want miners to build on those blocks. just wow!  Shocked

OFAC is in the USA. The Office of Foreign Assets Control. They want to control everything especially about bitcoin.
 https://ofac.treasury.gov/



Thats not how it works. You can operate the machines to different locations. Also, Group B can still mine txns if Group A decided to not mine. Group B will get the rewards.

Decred coin ($DCR) Largest whales control 85% of supply

One of the altcoins Decred coin ($DCR) used to support ASIC mining, but their leadership has decided to brick all the miners and keep the rewards for staking.

It was a big shock since they were the ones to invite miners, but now they abandoned Proof of Work. They did "governance voting" with people owning the DCR supply. Turns out that over 85% of the supply are owned by the main Dev Team Leaders. Only 15% of the staked supply is in the hands of the users of public users who use their Decrediton wallet as a voting service.

Smart people can tell that 85% of supply belongs to the Devs and their affiliates: Small # of solo staking nodes, but yet controlling majority of the staked supply. Running a solo staking node is a specialized Dev task with 24/7 uptime requirements, and even a Dockerized version would require deploying and keeping up with server monitoring and node upgrades. 16M of their coins 21M supply is already in circulation, so this is a big deal.

See the data:
https://www.reddit.com/r/decred/comments/uajqf1/voting_stats_decrediton_vs_commandline/.




The biggest whales are also their forum admin. List of biggest whales identified are:

#1: Jake Yocom Piatt (Project Founder, estimated to own 2M - 3M DCR coins)
#2: Jonathan Zeppettini (Head of Operations, estimated to own >1M DCR coins)
#3: Companyzero Developers (many developers since their premine)



They did not refund the miners, and started insulting Proof of Work. Proves another bad altcoin business lesson for many people.

Re: Bitcoin mining’s comeback in China

.. especially since I believe that the laws in China are strictly implemented.
Which is what I have been thinking since the day this thread was first posted. China is well known for its laws and habit of controlling everything that its citizens do. Hence if mining is illegal people would not dare to run it underground. However I am not aware of insider details, I would assume that the people there would be terrified of resuming mining even after a ban is running and think twice before re-starting if the ban if lifted.

Such a news article will make no sense until the ban is actually lifted.

You speak without knowledge. Have you ever seen how the business works?

There are many miners that can run underground even without public knowledge. You can easily export the machine to North Europe and run a farm, because hashpower is global. The bans are cosmetic.
