Topic: Careful fake Bitcoins about (Read 289 times)
Thanks for the information, only btc is reliable on the current market and I don't want to lose money in the case of fake btc in investing or buyin, thank you so much.
In my opinion, the thing you said has nothing to do with fake bitcoin, and you are talking about bad news. If you say that, bitcoin will be worthless.
I great surprised. How can be occurred fake Bitcoins in the market ? I think, It is not possible. It is more secure. This is particular organization copyright. Kindly share some proof, if you have.
The situation is worth to be solved because in another way there could appear premises for falling of btc's price and the next step will be the falling of the market.
the lack of understanding of some people on this forum is just surprising and the fact that they start topics like this "warning" others is even more surprising!
OP doen't even realize that addresses do not even exist in bitcoin. address (starting with 1 as OP insists on) is something that the end user who doesn't need to know what is going on in the background sees in his GUI and nothing else. an address is the hash of the public key and using a different version byte and a different formatting can give you a different address which bitcoin and the network don't care about at all.
as for LN he is just digging up and old bullshit spam by Fyookooliballz
right now there are thousands of LN nodes and millions of dollars have already been transacted using LN... now you keep on keeping your head in the sand and on /r/btc...
if you want to spread FUD, at least learn the basics and learn how FUD works.

Yeah this is a little confusing to be honest, I'm not sure of the process but I sure hope for our sake this is not a confirmed thing now.
after hearing this news, I became doubtful about the future of bitcoin. but, is this news that you convey authentic? if this news is true, we must be careful not to fall victim to this fake bitcoin circulation.
There are a lot of fake bitcoins on the market) They called forks) They hadn't made any real changes in crypto but made their creators very rich)
Yes a lot of fakes in crypto but it's not bitcoin.
Actually I didn't understand on what's the OP says and the links he put below.

Yeah it is true that fakes exists in a large numbers in bitcoin which make investors demotivate towards bitcoin. Especially those sites/accounts that offers crypto exchange for crypto are obvious scams and people should be aware of it.
As this crypto world is so much bigger and intense sad but true that there is a huge numbers of frauds here who never miss a single chance to get benefited by simply fooling crypto users by providing some eye catching approaches.
Thanks for letting us know about this. This February of 2018 I saw an official awareness post from Binance where they said scammers were defaming their official by saying them to send coins to some addresses.
If this post is true then it is really very sensational news but I have doubt about the authenticity of tis post. As far as I know there is no fake bitcoin appeared in the market. So I cannot say anything about this as this has no evidence.
It would have been preferable if you could provide more details. I read the article too but seems like it has no information on your alleged "fake" Bitcoins. I don't think anyone would believe a Bitcoin that doesn't start with 1 let alone trading or exchanging it. But still I would like to know on what basis you are telling such things.
I think this all are just some rumors cause I still didn't found any one who have face it but yes scams are av6on the online trading sites, and if we stay consious and secure then you also protected your coin from that also
I don't think it is true. Its quite impossible to send another coin via this blockchain.
Thank you for your reminder, especially newcomers must pay attention. A lot of fake coins, which will cause you to lose a lot of money, there may be Trojans inside.
Bitcoins cannot be fake. Even though this post is fairly thorough, there seems to be no evidence or even an example to back it up. So, since there are no proof, this assumption has a high chance to be dismissed.
I did not hear the news that there was a case of fake bitcoins. There is a limited number of bitcoin units and it is possible to track the path of each bitcoin. You can examine the transactions and find out where the bitcoin was received.
This kind of thing bothers you a lot, since investors are running for fear of being robbed, the end justifies the means?
I don't it is possible to make fake bitcoin. You may find fake wallets. But the bitcoins doesn't really exist in the wallet. They only contains the keys.
I think so too. It's impossible, but who knows

How can it be possible? Can you show some proof? It will be a very bad news for market. I hope it's just a rumor because i think it is not possible.
Is this really authentic? If positive then i think it is a huge problem for the market. It will create negative effects which can cause investors will lose their trust.
I think Bitcoin is the most profitable. It is more used in cryptocurrencies So the first target of the deceit is the Bitcoin. You have to be aware. In my opinion, your awareness will protect your Bitcoin.
I was surprised when I saw the title you opened and I started to read curiously as I continued to read the lecture I did not understand anything. What is the point of between the link you send and the post you sent? Am I the only one who does not understand?
Well I can't completely disagree with this fact, fake bitcoin are available in the market, first scams and now fake bitcoin I understand how completely the situation for the investors but if we stay aware it will be bit easy for us to protect our money from this.
Sadly the article you provided nothing about the 'fake' bitcoins you were talking about. It was all about LN and information on LN which already half the community knows. It would be better if you clear up the whole situation by commenting what you wanted to convey.
What? Could you kindly share an example? How can you send another coin via Bitcoin blockchain? This is impossible I think.
In recent times "fake" Bitcoins have appeared.
The very essence ot Satoshis Bitcoin whitepaper
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution."
Real lawful bitcoins address has and always will start with 1
If it starts with anything else than 1 you dont hold a legal bitcoin but possible some altcoin with the price pegged one to one to a real bitcoin.
If it walk like a duck, swims like a duck, quarks like a duck, its a duck.
LN for example is one such case. It has its own address structure, its own nodes, its own infrastucture, its a altcoin. Lightning Network is literally a 3rd party custodian based banking system and has nothing to do with the satoshi whitepaper of bitcoin
The world if full with fraud and deception be careful not to become a victim. Hold legal bitcoins easy identifiable with the beginning of 1.

With a Blood Sacrificing cult i have nothing in common, can not identify with or want any dealings, thats why i quit crypto. Its a bit like a divorce i guess but there is better things to be found than money and lambos.
