Apparently, my account got hacked on the 1st November by the unknown hacker for unknown reasons.

First of all, my password was secure atleast with 3 capital letters, 6 numeric numbers and the rest was just small letters.

It came as a surprise when I tried logging just now, but I was unable due to the unknown hacker my account. The next move that anyone would take after, would be recovering the password using the email. Then again, the email was invalid.

Then I headed to bitcointalk search box and tried searching the account user name, it showed up and indicated that it was last active this morning, and proceed to show last posts and noticed that the new owner is making use of it by participating in signature campaigns and social media campaigns, and probably hacking some forum users. This individual is impersonating me and in a way ruining my reputation since I am not well aware what he uses the account for. 

Enough about that, let head over to the forum security now.

After I released that the account email and passwords were changed, I then headed to my mailbox, searched bitcointalk on the search box to find out what really happened, and guess what happen; this happened:

This is what was happening, the bitcointalk team was telling me that the email has changed. I mean, what happened to " Confirm that you are changing the email by clicking this option? Even a site that was built a day ago has that.

The admin should do a better job in securing the forum because at the moment, I don't consider it safe, how can users not confirm the emails addresses they are changing? instead, they get a notification inform them that the email changed whereas the user didn't change it. Sometimes, we take more than month without accessing the forum, so the 14 day notification doesn't do much- look at me now.

Now my Snr Member account is hacked, when will I rank as senior again since they have introduced this merit system?
Please do something about this, there have too may complain regarding hacked account.

This is my email looked before the hack - 1 November. Bitcointalk PMs:

As we all know that the Hybrid Stock Exchange is in the process of blockchain integration, as trailer was recently released https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1u1JRqpg-k and a placeholder on their website https://hybse.com/, all these were included in this update: https://medium.com/welcome-to-dimcoin/hybse-trailer-is-here-12be44745d25. The landing page will following soon and hopefully the beta testing sometime in June.

For those who don't know
what HYBSE is, here is simple introduction of HYBSE is and what it does:

Hybrid Stock Exchange is an online stock exchange platform that ofers small and medium enterprises (SMEs) a platform where they can seek and access international capital from investors. Users can trade cryptonised currencies, securities and commodities. With HYBSE’s programming, the latest technology was fused with the wishes of ordinary traders and brokers. HYBSE is currently migrating to the blockchain protocol, since it has decided to conduct trading through cryptocurrencies. The mainstream equity markets are defined by over-regulation, red-tape, excessive fees and long waiting periods before trading can commence. Trading on the
platform can be done p2p, eliminating the need for too many external intermediaries.

The DIM Currencies are recognised and permitted as a medium of exchange on the platform. Issuers will have their securities cryptonised by HYBSE before they are listed. Cryptonised instruments will be transferred to DEPOTWALLET addresses allowing users to trade. HYBSE will also decryptonise shares when it is in the best interest of the DIM Ecosystem. The steps, means and costs of decryptonising can be viewed on the HYBSE website.

A brief overview of HYBSE and the DIM Ecosystem:

The DIM Ecosystem offers services such as cryptonisation (virtualization) of equity, trading in cryptonised shares and assets, cryptocurrency exchanges, crypto-fiat currency exchanges, e-commerce, debit card purchases, business transactions, and commodity trading.

HYBSE is part of the DIM Ecosystem and will allow trading of stocks, commodities, securities etc. on the blockchain.

SME's can register to get their IBIN and list their assets on HYBSE.

Big things are about to happen for all the DIM holders.

Be sure to work a lot if you end up at the end of developing this project. Good luck to your team in this project and also in every project in future!

IBIN(International Blockshare Identification Number) will introduce blockshares to the blockchain. IBIN will be similar to ISIN which is used on traditional stock exchanges to identify stocks and shares, however, theirs will be based on the companies listing on HYBSE will require an IBIN which will identify individual stocks on the blockchain. There is a limited offer for issuers to apply and register their IBIN freely and the limited offer will end on the 31st of August. In my opinion, this is a massive step for the DIM Ecosystem. DIM is about to moon. Read the full article here: https://medium.com/welcome-to-dimcoin/ibin-introduces-blockshares-to-the-blockchain-e5c2ac976350

very good ! We advance more than 900 places in coinmarketcap. we are in 424 place and we were in 1331.
 

Nothing to be happy about. The price is down and it's still sinking more and more. The daily trading volume for the last 24hrs is around $7500 ~ 0.87 B. I don't know what went wrong but It'll take more than being a NEM mosaic to breakout at this rate. After waiting for months after the ICO, We're still at ICO price. Thanks to the team's inability to fulfill on promises.

I am thinking to sell most of my shit coins. They dropped 70% anyway and put it into Powerledger, BEE token, We power... or something similar that actually works and have future.
Any advice?

As the industry changes day from day. our views as to what coins will grow in long term seem to change.
many thought XRG was it in December, then it was Tron, then people thought less

so anyways
 your ideas of 5 good coins you think will grow for 2018?
Privacy and Alt Coins

I am still thinking NEO.
But I like to hear from everyone else. as new ideas help to research other coins.

more feed back the better.
