@mdayonliner don't be lazy Wink

What have I done mate? Roll Eyes

Can you help me with some lights? Grin

No clue yet. I just searched with my username and seeing all these conversations where I was mentioned by members. Another one is here. That was an innocent mistake and I understood that.

Man, that was 1 month ago Cheesy

But if I recall correctly, it was something about this plagiarism https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.35621624

"Someone" pointed that is plagiarism from media and "someone else" pointed that it is from his media.

I took deeper research and found out article from media is also plagiarism and both "users" were wrong at that time.

So most likely when I said "don't be lazy" I was referring to that, i don't know, can't recall any more as the topic has been trashed, but I think you said it was from media and vod tagged account then I said it was from his media and vod removed tag and then I found out from where it was. Grin

Yeah, makes sense. Roll Eyes

Btw, congrats on 100+ merits

This has little to do with "courtesy," and using that term trivializes the offense of plagiarism. It makes it sound like, "Oops, I'm sorry, I meant to give you credit. I'll be sure to mention you next time." That might be something friends or colleagues do in casual conversation in settings where everyone knows and works closely with each other, but the moment you present it as your work either in written, spoken, or published form, it's no longer about courtesy.

While I can't speak for everyone who's done it, it's not hard at all to guess as to why people would do it: Laziness (it's a lot easier to just take what somebody else said rather than do your own work), ignorance (often people really don't seem to understand that there's a moral/ethical and academic integrity problem in doing this), or intentional deception (they like the answer or particular wording that somebody else gave and want people to think it was theirs). Often it's more than one of these reasons in combination.

No, plagiarism is taking someone else's work and passing it off as your own.

As to the specific mode/method you named (of copying & pasting), that's simple: Technology makes it quick and easy, especially if any of those reasons are in play.

Bundan daha önce bende üniversite için bir anket hazırlamıştım fakat bu çok daha detaylı olmuş ayrıca mixer gibi gizlilik hizmeti sağlayan servisleri bile bildiğinize göre Bitcoin ve blokzincir teknolojisi hakkında baya bir bilgi sahibisiniz. Ben anketi doldurdum, sizden tek bir isteğim var o da sonuç linkini bizimle paylaşmanız.

Hello guys, I see that many traders are afraid of risk, and they always want a guaranteed profit, but unfortunately, this gain is always a little in value.
And in many threads, they always ask about "how to make a safe method in trading".

For me, the risk is essential in every field ( especially in trading) to win a lot of money. Furthermore, when you are afraid, then you will never achieve what you want.
Many businessmen/women (billionaires) and successful traders become rich because they take risks.

Is it just me or the other thread (by "LoyceV") is getting more attention (from "moderators")?
- Based on recent banned accounts (from user reports).

I created a "thread", to ask if these two threads can be merged into one but I have a feeling, it won't happen (unfortunately).

Everyone should understand the positive and negative sides of an ICO. With so many ICOs happening, it’s good to know which ones have potential, but it’s even more important to know whether investing in this space even makes sense. In many ways the current wave of ICOs (Initial Currency Offerings) looks a lot like the heady days of stock IPOs in the late ’90s. The potential return was so enticing that euphoria overtook common sense in many ways. Today we would like to address 5 key factors on whether the ICO that you would like to invest in is good or not.

It’s great to have a whitepaper and detail out a project, but how detailed has the team really thought through their own project?

Short Whitepaper? No Details? Avoid! The whitepaper contains all of the core information you should need to know about the coin. Once you’ve done that, go to forums to read about some of the holes that may exist within those Whitepapers. See if the developers are actively addressing the concerns or simply ignoring them. The more information available, the greater the debate, and the more transparent a team is about their tech, the better it is for the investor.

No Development Roadmap? Avoid! What is the team’s development and marketing road map? Does it make sense? Is the time frame reasonable? Has the team already proven it can stay on top of its own development schedule from before the ICO? I am wary of any project that doesn’t have a detailed road map and so should you be.

Does the team have real experience in the space they are attempting to coinify?
If so, how much experience? What about relationships to industry veterans who can elevate the project further? Ultimately our investment is betting on the people behind the coin, not the coin itself. Our investment is a vote of confidence that the team can pull off the incredible feat they have set their sights on.

Are they full time?
The worst thing is to have a part time staff. This means the project isn’t their primary focus and it can mean the project may go slow or, even, no where. We want a full time team dedicated to fleshing out the vision.

How many years of experience do they have? Nothing wrong with the young diving into a killer project, but do they have support from a more experienced team? If not, then navigating the unknown could prove harder than initially anticipated. Nothing stays rosy for long. Having veteran team members can help to brave through turbulent times, which are guaranteed to happen.

Do they have every aspect covered? Architecture? Development? Scale? Business Development? Marketing? A team only comprised of technology developers can also prove to be a poor choice for investment. It’s important to have a balanced team, one that can also get the word out, and build relationships to accelerate growth.

At the same time if a project only has a single developer, it’s a single point of failure. If anything happens to that one person, the entire project can head into a downward spiral. Redundancies are required to ensure that no single person can make or break the project.

How many projects are now raising over $50M or $150M in a single go? Is that a good thing? Depends, but generally speaking, not really. A small team developing a disruptive technology probably needs money in the low millions to begin with, in order to prove their case. From there they should raise further capital once there is a real use case and growth in user-base.

The idea of a paper company raising over $100M should have any investor question on why do they need so much resources? And the answer should have a solid breakdown of where funds will go. Specifying that X% will go to founders and early investors and the rest to the crypto community of investors says nothing. We want to know what will be going into hiring and what would the runway be for those funds. Real planning beyond just the tech is incredibly important.

Keep in mind that this is not a regulated space. We’re in the wild wild west territory so anything put into an ICO should be considered thrown away for all intents and purposes. That is not to say the ICO can’t be successful and the coin can’t thrive, but the risks are high. So consider the facts and only put in what you can afford to lose.

1.COINCHECK
It is evident the main focus of Coincheck lies on Bitcoin lending. However, the platform also supports additional currencies, including Monero, Factom, Augur, Ether, and XRP. All loans will be refunded together with the usage fee when the loan period ends. It is not possible to exchange currencies by lending them, which is only normal. No lending platform supports that functionality at this time.
2. BITFINEX
This feature effectively allows users to provide funding in the form of multiple currencies to Bitfinex traders. Users can determine their own return rate, duration, and amount, as is the case with any of these three platforms.
It is rather interesting to note Bitfinex users can lend money in fiat currency as well. Most platforms only support cryptocurrency, yet this exchange is quite different. It is possible to borrow USD as well, which is quite interesting. It is unclear how popular lending is on Bitfinex right now ever since the platform got hacked last year, though. Then again, it is an option well worth considering for everyone who wants to explore lending options in the world of cryptocurrency.
3. POLONIEX
No one will be surprised to learn most of the cryptocurrency-oriented lending is taking place on Poloniex right now. The company has been a great source of lending services over the past few years. Poloniex also supports a wide range of currencies, which certainly helps to move things along. Right now, the platform supports currencies including Bitcoin, Ether, Doge, Dash, Litecoin, and others. There is no fiat currency lending on Poloniex, though, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
