    About 10:15 pm on the 29th,

    According to the company's manual, Bithumb secured all the cryptocurrency from the detection time with a cold wallet and checked them by blocking deposit and withdrawal service.

    Dapps that aren't built on ETH?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 06:33 PM PDT

    I love ETH, but I'm curious about other platforms people use to build Dapps. I know of EOS and PLUG (know of PLUG because Sylo's Dapp is built on it), but what other ones are being used in development communities?

    It's best if they have real development and users.

    Thanks in advance!

    Coingate closed my account and is holding my coins

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 01:01 PM PDT

    Basically what the title says... I had an account with Coingate. They banned my merchant account for no reason 9 days ago. In the email they sent me, they asked me to get in touch with them so that they can send me my funds.

    I wrote them 3 emails in the last days and they did not answer me.

    So that's just a recommendation for those of you who have a merchant account with coingate: be very careful with them. I don't know exactly what's happening here: whether their customer service is very, very bad (best case scenario), whether they are randomly scamming their customers.

    Ticket numbers (in case someone from coingate is reading this post): #19176 and #19746.

    Hiding columns in Coinmarketcap?

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 01:01 AM PDT

    Hi, I mostly check CMC on mobile and find it really frustrating to have to scroll across awkwardly (the scroll box is within the page, and doesn't seem to scroll reliably or smoothly on my phone) to see the 7 day graph.

    I've tried lots of alternatives but can't find anything else which:

    • Looks good, preferably with a dark theme
    • Let's me change currency and stays that way
    • Has a clear 7 day graph
    • Let's me see everything I want on one screen

    Livecoinwatch comes so close, but annoyingly it never remembers my currency and always switches back to USD. It also doesn't have a proper mobile theme so it looks small and weird.

    Thank you

    Recession incoming, where goes crypto?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2019 10:20 AM PDT

    It's looking increasingly likely we are going to get a US lead recession late 2019. This has a strong likelihood of engulfing the rest of the world.
    Crypto came about as a response to the 2008 crash. The space has not gone through a recession yet.
    What's going to happen? Are we going to see a huge crash as money moves into less volatile investments? Will we see an increase as people not yet exposed to the results of poor fiscal management, quantative easing, and the establishments habit of looking after bankers, discover how it is?

    Got scammed out of 1.15 Btc from 12xbit.com

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 01:24 AM PDT

    I've been having difficult times lately and just started getting back into trading. I follow a lot of groups on telegram to keep up with crypto projects i deem are worth looking into. I'm putting my shit experience here so others don't fall for this scam, it seems my willingness to help others got the best of me.

    On telegram i got a dm from someone with the pic of a cat and struck a casual conversation with me .. i asked him where he got my username .. he said he found me in a group. Then he asked me to help him withdraw his btc from a website (12xbit.com), as he cannot withdraw cause he got banned there. (Now i know this is a scam , i found out later after researching more). I made an account in there i didn't even have to enter my email, after which that telegram guy sent me the money to my account on that website. After which i tried to withdraw , but it said my funds are frozen and i'll have to deposit 250$ to verify my account. i stupidly sent the 250 $ , at which point i stepped inside the trap. Then after that even then my account said its frozen , i got an error because of my address it said. So i had to deposit 500 $ because my account was too big and the verification was not enough. The reason i went ahead a deposited another 500$ is because the site felt genuine and i thought i was helping someone who is new to crypto and made a stupid comment in the trollbox which got him banned on the site. I talked to customer support which talked to me in a very helpful way but it was all bullshit, making reasons and excuses as to why what i did didn't work. Then customer support gave me the telegram username of the admin of the site. I talked to him and he said i'm not being able to withdraw because the website only allows big amounts to be withdrawn when the withdrawal address holds 20 % to 30% of the amount to be withdrawn. I don't know why i believed him , at this point i just wanted to get my money back at the same time getting the amount out so i could give it back to the guy who first contacted me on telegram.

    Cryptofor (the tech admin guy) said i can withdraw through the official extension of the website. So like an idiot i downloaded the extension, and i had to keep it open on a page where i had enough balance to be able to withdraw. I once kept it open on my binance page , during which time all my coins got sold to BTC and there was an attempt to withdraw all the coins to another address. I told cryptofor this and he said it was a "bug". I almost lost my shit because i got a withdrawal request email from binance which i hadn't initiated. After that he said to make an account on blockchain.com and try withdrawal from there. I had to put in 20% as he said , so i put in .5 btc from my binance account because it can't be withdrawn with my authentication first , or so i thought. After i realised what the extension was doing i uninstalled it and scanned for viruses, found nothing.

    I went ahead a deposited .55 btc to my blockchain.com account that i had made (i had kept the extension open on my blockchain.com account for a while before uninstalling it), i had written down the backup key and 2fa on. But as soon as my bitcoins reached blockchain account , it automatically got sent to another address without my confirmation. Cryptofor said the bitcoins got sent to the website's system as i didn't send enough funds (80$ less than needed). I was puzzled how is it that even after uninstalling the extension and using a different browser altogether my blockchain account was still accessible to someone else. I took cryptofor's word for it , he said i'll get my funds back once the verification goes through. He appeared helpful , although now i know what really happened. Believing him that those btc are just frozen and will be recovered .. i sent .5 btc again to that blockchain.com account , this time i had set a second password so i'd need to put in a password to send btc. But again the moment i sent btc to it , it got sent elsewhere again. I still don't know how he managed to compromise a blockchain.com account in such a way that it was undetectable. I've been using crypto for years and never saw anything like it. Here's a screenshot https://prnt.sc/n4ozdw , the moment btc got into the account it got sent .. i couldn't do anything to stop this from happening. all in all i lost everything i had in my binance account trying to recover fake btc for someone who i didn't even know. The moment i had sent the second .5btc transaction i asked cryptofor what is going on and he said its in the system again, which now i know is complete bullshit. He sent me .35 btc to my account (i'm guessing he felt bad for how much he had scammed me out of), him giving me some btc back made me believe he's genuine, after that he deleted his telegram profile and just disappeared.

    Overall i lost 1.15 Btc in total, I already was not doing well .. and this situation certainly didn't help. I kept in touch with cryptofor for three days trying to ask him if i can withdraw , this or that because i thought he was the website's tech manager. Now i know i got scammed , its a shame i got caught in it. If nothing else , others can read my stupid story and avoid such scams. Have a good day , i know i won't for a while .. i'm just heartbroken.

    P.S after this happened , i got DM from two other people claiming they needed my help in withdrawing funds from websites they got banned in.

    Its funny how I'm getting negative reception on this , I have nothing to gain from putting this experience here other than help others know what to avoid, but please go ahead and tell me how wrong I am that'll help solve everything.

    As it so happens 12xbit is denying taking any responsibility and the cryptofor dude's (Aaron) website is cryptofor.org, it has that extension which can remotely access your account and take out crypto.
