I think it's something we should be concerned about when Bitcoin is at $500,000 or $1 million, so in the next 4 years we might be at levels below $150,000 and so mBTC (mBTC) is the appropriate symbol.

Re: eXch - instant exchange BTC / LN / XMR / LTC / ETH / ERC20

If you work in a supermarket and a thief comes and buys something, should the police close the market down and arrest the manager and staff because they allowed a criminal to buy his food there? They should not.
The problem with eXch is that it's a centralized service in an environment hostile to privacy, or at least to no-KYC exchange. If I were them, I'd simply comply with court orders (ignoring government requests), or at least restrict/review some transactions (flows above $50,000), or temporarily restrict the service when such events occur. While the above solutions aren't ideal, they're much better than losing eXch; we've lost a good service.

When we have something decentralized then we can do whatever we want.

Re: Tampermonkey Script to use on this forum

Dark mode is good but it's hard to read the quote when it's on.

It's from a jr member so I am hesitant to use the script with account (even though it looks harmless on glance) but used without one and here are the impressions. 1) what do you mean with highlight op posts?

I can confirm that it does not work, but by reviewing the code, its purpose is to make the OP post color #ff9c59 font-weight: bold

That may be true, but theymos is not going to lift the ban any time soon if FIOD Nederland keeps making regular visits here.
which one FIODNederland (UID: 3593363)*or FIOD Netherlands(UID: 3705361)?
Without official confirmation, we cannot trust these accounts.


**This didn't age well....
Compared to what happened with Sinbad, many positive changes have occurred:
1. US law enforcement authorities were not part of the investigation.
2. The forum was not mentioned or any user addresses blacklisted.
3. Investigations began after what happened with byBit.

Maybe it would be better if the US Department got involved in the case. At least based on their recent decision
No, I don't think anything will change. they won't pursue decentralized services like the CoinJoin protocol, privacy wallets, or the actions of end users and developers.
However, they will pursue:
1) Centralized services that engage in criminal activities.
2) Individuals who use decentralized services for criminal activities.

To users of the recently dismantled cryptocurrency exchange,

*****This message is issued by the Dutch Fiscal Information and Investigation Service (FIOD) and the Bundeskriminalambt (BKA).

How did I miss this quote? Why didn't you use this account ---> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3593363 ?
If you have time, creating a Q&A list would be helpful for the forum.

I’m curious, who exactly are you trying to scare, and what message are you trying to send here? I’ve never used that obscure exchange – it simply doesn’t have the liquidity for the volumes I work with.
This is probably a message to anyone who has access to .pw

~ 371 bitcoins were seized, and this may appear to be their reserves. The question is what they will do with this money: will they return it to byBit or sell it at auction?
+If this happened 10 days ago, why wait so long before announcing it?

The good thing is that the United States wasn't part of it, and neither the forum nor the signature campaign was mentioned.

Continuing to read, I found:
The service was accessible under the domain eXch.cx and various other internet addresses. In addition to extensive data of over eight terabytes, the crypto assets Bitcoin, Ether, Litecoin, and Dash, currently valued at approximately €34 million

Quote
In the investigation, ZIT and BKA cooperated closely with the Dutch Tax Investigation Service (FIOD). ZIT and BKA assume that the findings gained in the proceedings will also contribute to the investigation of a large number of other cybercrimes.

So the coming days/weeks will tell. If they manage to catch more scammers, then eXch was storing the logs/IP/metadata.

I always assumed that the eXch account was being managed by multiple users, so it's likely that someone testified against them.

1. Do not use an alt account to boost your DT1 Rank.
2. Do not add positive trust to your account or exchange merits with it.
3. You can add neutral trust to prove account ownership or sign a message.

I got scammed by FixedFloat recently, and Trocador did nothing to help. Even not honoring their service guarantee despite the fact that FixedFloat clearly violated their own ToS:
FixedFloat has been hacked twice so that's enough to avoid them, sorry for your loss but their policy of confiscating funds and using them indicates fraudulent behavior and they won't refund your money even if you send them all the necessary data.

Re: Petition to remove signature display on Reputation and Scam Acc. CB

on 06/05/2025, 00:26:01 UTC
The problem is that many users accuse different platforms without any proof or when they are blatantly wrong, in that case they are butthurt when you tell them were they are getting it wrong, and they accuse you of supporting the platform.
Regardless of what @OP thinks, I support the suggestion to remove it from that board. Usually, the responses to scam cases are general (it's paid) and don't help much in solving the problem.

It will make scam and scammers hide, because when you disable signature in those boards, people will rarely visit them. So, so many accusations will go unattended to.
So you admit that the primary reason is paid posts? Huh In my opinion, in cases of scam, getting three helpful replies (advice) is better than 100 generic replies.

Re: The Change Ltd no refunds

how Solana moved from the deposit address to another personal deposit address on Binance. The reviews on Coinradar confirm that Change Ltd. is no longer the same service we knew when they ran a signature campaign here on the forum.

AFAIK, They do not have a reserve and therefore the service uses Binance,WhiteBit APIs.
Since escrow has been withdrawn I don't think this service can be taken seriously. In the past I could trust them up to ~$500, but after reading this it might go down to zero if they don't give @OP a refund.

Unfortunately, your case requires a more detailed review, as the Source of Funds (SoF) you provided contains insufficient information. Additional time will be needed to complete a thorough verification process.
Is it possible to complete a SOL refund? Not to complete the transaction process. + I thought this option was always available even if the transaction was *high-risk.*

I agree with your dession. You thik that maybe I've a alt or I'm doing merit farming. Actually I don't know the rules I know that if I add a source there is no problem. That's my fault. Form next time I will not do this type of work. Thanks for the warning type por remainder. In future that type of mistake will never done by me. After few some time sir I will request for reconsideration it's a humble request to you.

The BTC/USD Wall Observer is usually an unknown place for beginners. Your posts there sound like a well-known account farming pattern, so stop.

Many refuse to submit their information and are successful in receiving a refund, so I hope this happens to you.

I remember a similar case where I received a refund when I contacted the support team, but since they requested your information, I'm no longer recommending this service.

I hope you get your money back, but creating a flag is even more necessary than negative trust.

I believe the lion's share of cryptocurrency fraud is due to ransomware, which typically demands payments in Bitcoin and Monero.
$16 billion is not a small amount, especially considering the losses in a single year. Yet, efforts are moving in the opposite direction.
+The largest number of complaints came from those over 60 years old.
