    No they won't. Now quit using bloodshed in other countries from to justify monetization of your content from the slactivism and comfort of your own home. Cryptocurrency is not a bulletproof vest, nor is it your breakfast lunch and dinner.

    This opinion is my own, nothing more nothing less.

    Coinjer: Most elaborate Crypto scam I've seen to date

    Posted: 08 Dec 2019 10:08 AM PST

    Hey everyone, making a post about "coinjer" - an extremely elaborate cryptocurrency scam that you may have been messaged about lately. I'm making this post because I wasn't able to find any information about them anywhere, making me think this is a brand new scam. I was contacted via discord with a message about winning 0.25 BTC from being a member of one of their network's cryptocurrency affiliate discords (along with a nicely produced article about the giveaway).

    The website is extremely well made, as is the user agreement and code. You'll be sent a promo code that allows you to add 0.25 BTC to your account which you can seemingly exchange for other cryptos or fiat currency. There's an extremely convincing about us page once you're logged in with names, titles and pictures of the founders and locations of their institution, and they even link a corporate registration number of a financial institution in the UK.

    Despite how well the site was developed, the red flags gave this away for me were:
    1. Very recent registration on namecheap (within the past 3 months) via whois with all hidden information.
    2. None of the people in "About us" return any information on linkedin - nor does the company, coinjer
    3. There is no "Coinjer" as a registered company in the UK.
    4. The passwords and security are too simple on the website
    5. You can use this promo code on any newly created account
    6. You must make a deposit in order to withdraw.

    Please be very wary of this, warn any less-savy friends and if anyone sends this site to you please report them. Happy trading!

    Are there any smartphone wallets which don't sync with servers and everything is stored on your phone?

    Posted: 08 Dec 2019 02:42 PM PST

    Hi,

    I've read that Coinomi is not that safe and that stuff is synced with their servers, so my coins could be stolen if they get hacked. Is this true? If so, what kind of wallet do you recommend for iOS and Android?

    I don't want to buy a hardware wallet tbh, bought a Ledger Nano S back in the day and lost it after 4 weeks lol

    Thanks in advance

    Another ICO scam: Cappasity, ICO from 2017-2018 raising millions for a decentralized 3d content marketplace is blocking Twitter users asking about the future of the token

    Posted: 08 Dec 2019 06:51 AM PST

    !!!DISCLAIMER: BECAUSE I GOT THREATENED WITH LEGAL ACTION I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO STATE THE OBVIOUS: AS EVERYTHING ELSE I AM STATING, THIS IS JUST MY OPINION. I TRIED MY BEST TO RESEARCH THE TOPIC AND THIS IS HONESTLY THE ONLY CONCLUSION I CAN MAKE: CAPPASITY ICO WAS A HUGE SCAM! BUT I SUGGEST EVERYONE TO RESEARCH CAPPASITY, CAPP and ARTOKEN (which the token was called first) AND FORM THEIR OWN OPINION. !!!

    It was a promising ICO back than. They failed to deliver on any promises and after severe criticism the the discussion channel is just an announcement channel now got closed and they opened a new one with just a few hundred instead of ten thousands of people. They are actively silencing criticism, calling it fud. I have seen many people getting banned in their telegram. Also multiple users reported on twitter that they got blocked simply for asking questions, like this user:

    https://twitter.com/BitcoinBella01/status/1180342759980318721/photo/1

    I informed the SEC about this price "discussion" they posted after the first ICO phase. Here https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EJg2727XUAIGd1m?format=jpg&name=medium and here https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ELFTnoSWoAAl579?format=jpg&name=large

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I think CEO Kosta Popov is a scammer and he should be treated as such, I wouldn't trust him or his company. Also I wanted to ask you to help to get the SEC involved. Show them what they got for funding their company with a token sale scam like this. You can fill the SEC form anonymously and it doesn't take long. https://www.sec.gov/tcr

    Edit: They just sent me this, I think I am getting sued for calling them scammers. What a bunch of clowns they are. Of course everything I stated here is just my personal opinion, everyone can look at the facts and decide for himself if this was a scam. I think it is clear it was.

    Are there charting websites with crypto price data going back over 5 years?

    Posted: 08 Dec 2019 09:31 PM PST

    I've searched on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, and TradingView but found nothing going back that far. The coins I'm particularly interested in are BTC, LTC, and XRP. Thanks in advance for any help.

    What is Coinjer trying to accomplish?

    Posted: 08 Dec 2019 01:49 PM PST

    I understand that it is a scam, but what exactly is the plan? Are they trying to get people to transfer into those online wallets to make bitcoin themselves or what? And if so, are those wallets real, which seems sort of dangerous for them. Just looking for other people's thoughts.
