Anyway, as you have those funds as managing bounty you may clear those funds to the participant as soon as possible so that the community can understand you are working as you worked before the hack. And it will help you to prevent getting new negative tags and also may help you to remove the previous tag. And more important thing is that the Bitcointalk community will be able to know that you are legit and the fund has really been hacked.

Finalizing a bounty campaign spreadsheet takes time. I don't want to rush these things as when the rewards have been distributed, there's no going back, no undo button for that. I'd rather take my time and check everything on the spreadsheet carefully.

You realize those tokens aren't mine right?
Those were for the bounty campaign's bounty pool. Moonbet and Undeads.
Moonbet campaign has already ended but I am still finalizing its spreadsheet for the rewards distribution, that's why the tokens are still sitting on my ledger.
Undeads just started this week.

I think armanda90 though those tokens/dollars are of you and if you are legit then you may send from those funds.

Don't just say it, as one of the security measures, you truly need to learn Linux if you are involved in cryptocurrencies. It's not that hard. But if you really need to run Windows, you can run it as a VM within your Linux OS. It's much safer.

I would never use Windows + Chrome/Firefox for my exchange/banking/Bitcoin needs, it's just a security hole, and a hack/malware waiting to happen.

I think that kind of observation is a bit radical!

Regardless of the system used, security begins with user behavior. If the person has a bad behavior, he is subject to problems, regardless of the system he has. It is true that one or another system can make it difficult to have problems, but they are not infallible.

Safety is always related to the behavior that the person has!

But isn't choosing the best technical approach for securing your system also part of human behavior? In Bitcoin, we like say "Be your own Bank", and that we should take absolute responsibility for private keys. Plus between overshooting or undershooting system security, it's definitely better to overshoot especially if you HODL a large amount of Bitcoin, OR if you're holding other people's Bitcoin like OP.

It should be pushed a lot more than it is. I think that it is usually more like human behavior to suffer a loss/consequence for lack for security before taking it seriously. I think this thread validates that theory.

Without (rightfully) going into too much detail it is pretty clear to me that you're on the right track to a much better level of security. Good stuff and credits are due to the members who helped you and clearly steered you to a better path, and all the best to you in the future! I'll read the details later too, about to log off.

Yes, they are.

There was an "if" before that quote.
In this case though, I guess it is fine.
My next question is, what steps have you taken since to improve your security levels, or what steps are you planning to take? Do you need help or have you done research to create a plan? Also what have you done to mitigate the existing attack? If you were hacked/compromised it is very likely that you are still compromised. I am intrigued to read more details.

If the moonbet tokens can be liquidated and they are not a part of some other campaign or business, then julerz should definitely be obligated to liquidate them with no excuse otherwise, as consequence for not maintaining an adequate level of personal security. As a campaign manager who manages others' funds, part of your job description is being an escrow. A part of being an escrow includes maintaining an adequate cybersecurity level, at minimum to the level where someone can't just send money out of your Electrum, as has happened here.

If the hack is legitimate, there should not definitely not be any pity here. There is way to much of it when the only reason this is possible in the first place is carelessness, ignorance and recklessness toward security.

This leads me to ask julerz; Can the moonbet tokens be sold to cover the loss and if not, why?

You might be right that you have been hacked. But I am confused as I have seen a lot of scammers who were reputed on the forum also few of them was managing bounty campaign, was on the list of most trusted user, and most earned merit list. Also, they had repaid loans to several lenders but once they receive higher than their expectations they just scammed and left the forum. In this case, it is hard to trust you. But all will be changed if you repay the hacked amount from which you will earn or from the savings you have.

Yes. Which is why I vouch to change my behavior. Being so careless got me into these bad circumstances and it sucks.
Not only that I now have a constant headache, and I could barely sleep thinking over and over again how I fucked up, I lost what little reputation I had in this forum.
So, never again. I'd do whatever it takes to keep what little crypto I have left safe.

Just some thoughts. Even though this happened very early of freaking 2023, I still have high hopes everything will be ok since I see some members in this forum giving me encouragement (though I know most still doubt me for what happened) it does ease the pain a little.

Anyways here some update,

Yo!Mix: $320 management fee returned + $150 initial refund for the lost funds: https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/transactions/btc/bdae89f63a82d45cde5412b6c9dd63802a999cb389a3da51adb63d289842c579
Coinomize: $150 initial refund for the lost funds: https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/transactions/btc/246520fe68abe0439c1ea10f8cb17c1f8ff4699fe78e2044102427a637af84e5

I believe "Juler12" truly understand how this forum works, and as such won't dare to trade his reputation of many years for mere $5000, even when I heard him said that amount is equally a big sum of many in Philippines where he came from. Because I have been reading meaning into every statement of his ever since this allegation came up, and with this new update of his taking steps into paying back the lost fund to his clients, really shows that he is innocent and deserves a second chance to continue doing what he knows how to do best on this forum until his dept is fully paid to the last penny.

NOTE:
So my advice to Sir "Juler12" is that this should be a lesson to you, and from next time, security should be your top most priority when handling clients funds.

Don't give up, the year is too early to fail.

Perhaps. Awfully interesting coincidence timing-wise though.
I also made a mistake. It isn't BUSD - It's USDT (Binance Peg).

That campaign has been scheduled to run weeks ago. I've been in communication with that project team for weeks.

It just so happened that they have sent me $4,400 in USDT (BEP20) ($4,000 for the bounty pool and $400 for 4-week campaign management) [TXID] few hours after what happened with the Electrum wallet.

Why would I take $5,000 and put it again on a bounty campaign wherein all that funds are just going to be distributed to all who participated in it Roll Eyes

He mentioned the $4k earlier from being for a bounty campaign that he is managing/going to manage. He's currently seeking for an escrow to hold/distribute said funds so I doubt this is some masterplan of stealing the $4k from Yo!Mix..
