Honestly, I almost feel that the feedback I can leave will be useless. Feedback from people like me only works when the user clicks on someone's profile and looks at all the responses. But it can't show the warning elsewhere, namely here. You might think I was wrong, but it's really what I feel.

Let me dispel your skepticism ... If you see unfairness, or want to warn someone, you should write about it in similar threads, but in order for the DT members to leave red tags, you should always go first, thereby showing an example. It takes a long time for your feedbacks to start showing up by default, but that won't happen if you don't take such small steps. Anyway, good luck in your endeavors, and be optimistic. Wink

Problem (title): "Cloud" mining service detected!
Problem (discussion):
Well I don't know if you have the same itching that I have when I see some cloud mining service popping up. I don't have a problem with the campaign itself since it is managed by yahoo which is a reputable member but with the lack of information I got trying to figure out details and reviews about the service. I didn't find also a topic here about it, if anyone could find it, you can share it with us. Basically you can buy a contract from many options provided, cheaper ones for less than 7 days are sold out and the others start from +$400 for 1-2 years.. Site created 3 years ago? Service is in Kazakhstan? Should it be trusted? Should members here support a cloud mining service and wear its signature? I am raising a red flag until I have a clearer vision of the situation..

Their website is about 3 years old. There are a lot of red flags on their website. They don't appear to have any presence on bitcointalk, but appear to occasionally market themselves here.

I posted in the sig campaign thread, asking yahoo about his due diligence, but he has yet to respond.

Using criteria from ▁ ▂ ▄ ▅ ▆ Cloudmining 101 (ponzi risk assessment) ▆ ▅ ▄ ▂ ▁, there are few red flags. But i would advice strong precaution.

1) No public mining address / no user selectable pool.
No?. Looks like you can choose any mining pool, but i can't verify it without buying/rent something.

2) No endorsement from any asic vendor
Yes.

3) No relevant pictures of their hardware and datacenter
Yes? There's no relevant image found using this keyword on Google/DDG image search.

Code:

site:xive.io

4) Open ended IPO / fractional reverse mining risk
Yes?, although there's limit of available ASIC/contract, but there's no way to verify it since i didn't find any relevant picture of their hardware and datacenter.

5) Referral programs and social networking
No? There's no relevant page found using this keyword on Google/DDG.

Code:

site:xive.io refferal

6) Anonymous operators
Yes. I can't even find "About us" or "Legal" page.

7) No exit strategy
Yes? The FAQ doesn't mention it's possible to sell the contract/ASIC.

8) Bonus point for "guaranteed profit"
No. All i can find is Bitcoin Mining Profitability Calculator.

Just wanted to confirm that this really exists? I don't think there are any cloud mining platforms that are practically profitable, as far as I know, all of them are just scams for newbies who don't have a lot of knowledge, am I wrong? And yes, I get really annoyed when I see some people talking about how they can make money through cloud mining. And with cloud mining being a scam, I believe this campaign should be countered Huh

I mean, it should be all, to be fair to everyone, right? if a person there is tagged, all other participants should also be tagged. It's just a personal opinion Cheesy

If you see anyone who's advertising a 1xbit signature and has not yet been tagged by me. You can just post the username in one of the threads talking about the 1xbit scam in reputations board. I will surely see it. You can also alert me via PM.

JollyGood has so far tagged anyone who wanted to advertise them, whether accepted or not. I was a little lenient by only tagging those who continued to advertise them, but our goals are all the same, identify and mark scam advertisers.

You can also tag any person you see doing something wrong. The task is not necessarily meant for only DT members. Wink

I said "almost" rather than "all", not because I am aware of someone or a part of them escaping from the negative trust but because I didn't check all participants there and whether they were tagged red or not.

Quote from: snipie on June 24, 2021, 02:24:35 PM

You can create a topic, if there isn't already one, to report these people once you detect them wearing 1xbit signature..

Personally I will never participate in any such war again, I myself am a person who bought an account and used it, therefore, I feel that I am not really qualified to file a complaint, report anyone else Cheesy

I just want to discuss a bit with you here Cheesy

Got it

Personally, if I find someone wearing 1xbit without having a negative trust, I will ask DT members who tagged the other participants to treat him like them, or else to remove his negative trust from all of them. So far, this didn't occur

I feel quite doubtful about the word "almost", why not all people join that campaign? Basically 1xbit is a scam platform and the people promoting them are scammers so I think all participants should be tagged, instead of most, because without any exceptions. Even people who are not accepted should be tagged, I mean people who submit their application there (and worn the signature).

I remember there's a couple of users that received negative feedback for the first time after joining the campaign. And even if they're paying out for a long time they still need to clean their reputation.

It's also hard to judge who is wrong in this matter. But I remember very well, when people promote Yobit, all the promoters get negative trust, so in this case perhaps the same would apply, or not? I'm curious to see how the DTs will act Cheesy

Yobit was running in this forums for years. Although all blames about lack of management, the amount of spammers participating there, almost no action was taken until hilarious involved and somehow regulated it and locked the topic. Once Yobit started running a ponzi-like scheme, among its shady tricks, and asked members to advertise it in their signatures, DT decided finally to move and tagged people red. Obviously this led to some collateral damage and some serious posters received a negative trust.
The case of 1xbit is different since there is scam accusations against it before running the campaign twice. People were warned about the risks but many of them ignored it (since they were involved in a way or another with them for example). In that particular case, DT moved fast and tagged almost all participants red.

It is clear that people who already have negative beliefs will not hesitate to participate in such campaigns, because they are no longer worried about what they are facing. I'm talking about the members who are completely pure and what they are about to face. And do people with negative beliefs really deserve to be paid for their spamming work?

Thank you Royse.

The signature design was working fine on PC but it was looking weird on mobile which is why I had to lock the thread and contact the designer. Now, everything is fine, the campaign is live and accepting new participants.

Quote from: bullrun2024bro on June 19, 2021, 06:21:49 PM

A small advice @LittleMouse: Just create the thread in Archival first and test everything there and then post it/move it to the appropriate section. Good luck with your bounty campaign!

Thank you for the kind advice but the signature was working fine on my end as I was on PC but later, we notice it was not fine in the mobile version. And yeah, experience makes a man perfect. Thank you.

There is a new campaign [OPEN]BETJA Signature Campaign | Hero/Legendary only ($50 Per Week) and immediately the topic was closed. A strange situation, the manager wrote that it is possible to submit applications, but the topic is closed, and there is no explanation anywhere.

This is the first time I've seen this. Undecided

Same here. I have to admit that I was also a bit confused when I saw the thread.

Quote from: AB de Royse777 on June 19, 2021, 04:12:05 PM

I had a quick chat with Little Mouse earlier, and he said they are updating the sig code design. So there are no red flag and sorts of things. It's very usual in my opinion.

Ah, that explains it. Of course, it doesn't make a very good first impression if the thread is closed again straight away, but if the signatures don't work properly, there is no choice. It's probably because @LittleMouse has only managed a few signature campaigns before.

I remember seeing a situation in the past, I might confused it with another topic but I recall it was a signature campaign also and it was a mistake where OP forgot to unlock the topic. BetJA appears to be a new service but Little Mouse is running the campaign and holding the funds. Until now I don't see red flags at least for the campaign. I will send pm to Little Mouse to inform him about this.

oh, just in time, by the way, since this topic is open here, I would like to discuss a little bit about 1xbit.com's campaign. What do you think about the people who participated in the promotion for 1xbit? At first I saw that they offered too high payout, I thought they would scam into not making payment. But apparently, 3 weeks on, it seems the payments are still being made. However, it is bad to advertise a scam platform, so do people who participate in advertising receive negative feedback?

I guess it depends from one DT member to the other since not all have the same views on tagging campaign participants. One recent case I can recall that's similar to 1xbit is probably the LiveCoin campaign and here's the thread discussion on tagging applicants.

I didn't go into details, but I think it's pretty obvious that 1xbit.com is a campaign for the outcast. Who knows, maybe 1xbit.com has a new owner, maybe they even would like to settle all past disputes, but apparently the material costs of these disputes seem more costly to them than throwing a few thousand marketing dollars into the trash every week, (considering the flags and the fact that all campaign participants have red tags). As for the red tags, I noticed that everyone I saw under the auspices of 1xbit.com received their red tags even before applying for this campaign.
