Topic: Report plagiarism (copy/paste) here. Mods: please give temp or permban as needed (Read 119034 times)

I almost never come across plagiarized posts.. but this post from newbie Zozain stood out... since it was the next post on the thread taking from Tungbulu's earlier post.

When you open a position with a broker or trading provider, you’ll be presented with two prices. If you want to trade at the buy price, which is slightly above the market price, you open a ‘long’ position. If you want to trade at the sell price – slightly below the market price – you open a ‘short’ position. The difference between the buy and sell price is known as the ‘spread’, which the provider takes to facilitate the position.
A long position in traditional trading is when you buy an asset in the expectation its price will rise, so you can sell it later for a profit. This is also referred to as going long or buying

Making a long trade doesn’t necessarily mean buying a physical asset. Derivatives like CFDs and futures contracts give you the opportunity to take a long position on a market without owning underlying asset. You are simply speculating that the price of the asset will rise.
A short position in trading is a strategy used to take advantage of markets that are falling in price. When you make a short trade, you are selling a borrowed asset in the hope that its price will go down, and you can buy it back later for a profit. It is also known as short-selling, shorting or going short.

Short-selling works by borrowing the underlying asset from a trading broker, and then immediately selling it at the current market price. Shorting is the opposite of going long – where you will make a profit if the price goes up.

 
Again, let’s say you want to trade bitcoin against the US dollar (bitcoin/USD). The current market price is 3919, and you decide to take a short position and sell 5 contracts (each equivalent to 1 BTC) to open a position at this price.

If you were right, and the value of bitcoin fell against the US dollar, your trade would profit. Let’s say that the new market price is 3874, you could close your position and take your profit by buying 5 contacts to close your position at the buy price of 3879, which is slightly higher than the market price due to the spread. Because the market has moved 40 points in your favour, the profit on your trade would be calculated as follows: 5 x 40 = $200. If the market moved against you by 40 points, you would have made a loss, calculated as 5 x -40 = -$200.

How to go long and short on markets
If you want to take a long or short position on a market, you can open a CFD trading account. CFD trading is the buying (going long) and selling (going short) of contracts for the difference in price of an asset, between the opening and closing of your position.

CFDs and are derivative products, because they enable you to speculate on financial markets such as shares, forex, indices and commodities without having to take ownership of the underlying assets. Both methods use leverage, which means you only have to put up a small margin (deposit) to gain exposure to the full value of the trade. This can magnify your potential profit, but also your potential loss.

How buyers and sellers affect the market
Buyers and sellers affect supply and demand – and therefore the price – of an asset. At any given time, one group tends to outweigh the other, and that’s the primary reason the price of a market fluctuates. When the buyers outweigh the sellers, demand for the market rises. As a result, the price of the asset rises. When it’s the other way around, supply increases and demand for the asset starts to drop – and the price falls. The way supply and demand affect markets is often referred to as volatility.

A buyer’s market is when buyers have the advantage over sellers. They can negotiate a better buying price for an asset because supply is far more than demand. A seller’s market is when there is limited supply of an asset and an overflow of buyers. In this case, the seller has the advantage.Ct
When you place a trade, you are either ‘buying’ or ‘selling’ a financial instrument
A long position in trading is when you buy an asset in the expectation its price will rise
A short position in trading is when you sell an asset in the expectation its price will fall
You can go long or short on a market by opening a CFD account
When buyers outweigh sellers, demand increases, and price rises
When sellers outweigh buyers, supply increases, and demand and price drop.

I agree with your Your advice to Bitcoin newbie investors is commendable. Since the market is 100% unpredictable, it might be completely suicidal   focusing on the short term fluctuations of the market, it’ll be more beneficial to develop a long term investment strategy. This involve setting a budget, setting out a particular investment amount that one can invest on a regular basis without feeling overwhelmed and most importantly, sticking to that long term plan for at least for some market cycle. In a nutshell, sticking to the DCA strategy can be extremely beneficial, especially for us as newbies that are still trying to learn how to manage their portfolio and also access the Bitcoin market.

Since the market is 100% unpredictable, it might be absolutely suicidal to attempt timing the market, so rather than timing the market or focusing on the short term fluctuations of the market, it’ll be more beneficial to develop a long term investment strategy.

The crypto craze continues towards the end of the year as Bitcoin surpasses $100,000 which served as many analysts psychological "price targets". And now that we're here, what's next for the giant? Here are some reasons to stay cautiously bullish..

BTCUSD is climbing higher in the $100,000s at the time of writing this, the highest price it's ever been in history. If we zoom out to the 1W timeframe, there is a long term trend line that has called the third peak in late 2021. There are a few things scenarios that can happen here could be we get the test at the top of the trend line and pullback, or we test and break the trend line. If the crypto can break the 7-year resistance zone, it could result in further growth into uncharted territory.

 And that will another history being made !

Sorry for quoting you @lovesmayfamilis, but this may help for future reference as I try connecting the dots.

Someone is busy farming these accounts and perhaps selling them off after acquiring some merits and ranking them up. This one for example change the password and email address a few days ago.

Some things I noticed is the account take advantage of some merit threads and contests to grab some merits and then exchange between other alts. They also seem to be from a particular local board, and they love to shit post or use AI.

Leading Bitcoin miner MARA has once again caused a market frenzy, revealing plans to raise $700 million in an effort to accelerate its BTC buying plan. Notably, the firm revealed on Monday that it intends to offer a private offering worth $700 million in 0% convertible senior notes due 2031, primarily to qualified institutional buyers. This mover, riding the heels of the miner’s colossal buying witnessed previously, has in turn echoed significant market optimism surrounding the flagship crypto.

Bitcoin Miner MARA To Raise $700M Sparking Market Discussions
In an official press release dated December 2, MARA announced a proposed private offering of 0% convertible notes worth $700 million for institutional buyers. Further, the Bitcoin miner announced that it would grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase an additional $105 million aggregate principal amount of the notes within a 13-day period, beginning and including the date of issue. This enhanced market offering, in turn, magnetized institutional buyers across the broader American landscape.

However, the mining firm also revealed that the offering remains subject to market and other conditions, “and there can be no assurance as to whether, when or on what terms the offering may be completed.” Moreover, these notes will be unsecured, which is in line with MARA’s senior obligation. Besides, it’s noteworthy that all of the proceeds will be used primarily to acquire Bitcoin, with some proceeds also being used to repurchase the 2026 convertible notes up to $50 million.

Nigerian crypto exchange platform, Bitmama, has temporarily halted its virtual Mastercard services due to unforeseen issues with its provider. This move follows a trend of fintechs in Africa facing challenges with card services, including fluctuating exchange rates, chargeback fraud, and insufficient funds. While some fintechs blame provider issues, others cite high costs and limited revenue opportunities. Despite these setbacks, some fintechs like Bitmama and Chipper Cash continue to offer alternative card services.

All of us in this forum are more or less aware of DCA method techniques. The DCA method is a revolutionary strategy in Bitcoin, which is committed to holding Bitcoin for a long time. DCA helps bitcoin investors enter the market, and encourages investors to invest more over time. DCA also captures investors' investment sentiment by spreading purchases over time.

 I think people who are more risk-averse prefer DCA-stability,while those who are more aggressive prefer the potential upside of a single bitcoin investment. However the best way to make a decision is to carefully consider your investment goals and risk tolerance and then take the right decision.

The DCA method is a phrase that refers to the length of time a Bitcoin investor holds an asset in his portfolio. The logic and thinking behind this is that in the long term the market will go up, so it is beneficial to invest using the DCA method for the long term. Essentially with the DCA method you are rewarded for your patience by investing.

If you don't want my tag to appear under default trust, please start a thread in "Reputation" and state your case. Ask people to distrust me, you need roughly 10/15/20 "~". I promise i won't get mad at anyone who thinks i've abused my power.

I don't need tools to determine whether a text is AI-generated or not. It's fucking obvious. You can never get rid of that metallic taste of language that is so redundant, overly generalizing, and frequently lacking a personal touch...a text only AI can produce.

yours is just an abuse of power done to get more merit!

please remove your trust that you placed as @lovesmayfamilis did, I and other users have demonstrated that the tools are imperfect and can do a lot of damage to accounts if not used sparingly, so please remove your trust and try to be reasonable...

This will be my first and last reply here. I stand by my tag and will not remove it. I am 100% certain that you have been using AI to generate (not translate) the majority of your posts on the Gambling board since September 16th of this year.

to this absolute dogshit crap:

juric will replace de rossi but it has to be a very quick and quick thing because the substitute has to manage a good team that is not managing to play well in the championship and de rossi knew how to convey a lot so the substitute has an important job to do for me I've never liked him but let's see what he can do, he also has a certain Dybala on his side so...

he made a good change and rightly so, it couldn't have been done better than this other than changing the team and revolutionizing everything including the coach, so the club has decided to hire a winning coach who is proving to be up to the task at least for now , and I must say that I really like how he is behaving so yes Juvenrtus is going in the right direction

in fact now that there is a lot in command of the team we are seeing that all the redundant players who come to take too much money are leaving and it is more than normal when you have a competent coach like him, for Allegri he had his fixations and chose players also based on luck in my opinion now the wind has changed and all this money is no longer spent!

You are absolutely correct that unpredictability is a common feature in football and on any given week, a smaller team might defeat a large team and disrupt betting predictions. However, current form, mindset, and home advantage often play significant roles in determining the outcome of a match, which is why I agree with your predictions.

The victory of A.C. Milan over Inter Milan has indeed given the team a confidence boost that they will likely carry into their match against Lecce. On the other hand, Inter Milan will probably do their best to bounce back by beating Udinese and closing the gap with their rivals.

As you've mentioned, Napoli and AS Roma undoubtedly want to keep their momentum going this season. It seems that both teams have found a rhythm with their new coaches that they are eager to maintain. However, we can only wait and see how these matches will actually play out.

You make a valid point regarding AC Milan and their recent performances. Their inconsistency in the Italian League and UCL, paired with their troubling defeat against Liverpool can indeed impact the mentality of their players. Leverkusen's triumph against Feyenoord has likely boosted their confidence significantly, crucial heading into a fixture with a team of AC Milan's caliber.
Considering Milan's subpar performance in the UCL last season, Leverkusen may have this advantage. However, football is an unpredictable sport and with proper adjustments, Milan has the potential to put a lot on the line for Leverkusen. A lot rides on how both teams will come out on the field and manage the game. But indeed, the home ground advantage can play an integral part for Leverkusen.

It's indeed unfortunate to see a team like Brazil, that used to dominate the field with its glorious play, is now struggling to maintain the standards. A change in management, a competent coach like Abel Ferreira, who has already displayed his prowess by bagging several titles, could indeed bring a directional change for the team. Yet, it's not just about the coach but the collective team performance which makes the real difference. The heart of every player makes the team; missing it clearly shows in their performance. It's high time that they pull themselves together and learn from their mistakes because facing other South American opponents isn't going to be a walk in the park. Their agility and readiness to pounce on any opportunity is really commendable and a learning lesson for the Brazilian side. They need to revamp their strategies and approach swiftly before it's too late.

You make a fair point about the difference in working routine at a club versus at a national team. It's true that Tite has spent many years coaching the Brazilian national team, which could potentially make him more prepared for the demands of the national team than someone who has only worked at a club level. Your argument about his poor performance at the club not meaning certain failure at a national level is plausible.

But there are also valid concerns raised by the previous poster. Even if we accept that Tite could perform better than he did at his club if given the opportunity to return to the national team, there is no guarantee of this. His recent failure may signal that he is not currently in his optimal form and could translate to a poor performance at the national level too.

You suggested the possibility of hiring a high-level European coach. That's an interesting idea - however, bringing in someone unfamiliar with the culture and style of football in Brazil could also pose its own risks. Likewise, it may not be

Your insight is quite interesting. Indeed, the underdog teams should never be underestimated. Como's examples of beating stronger teams like Atalanta and Verona demonstrate that with determination and good strategy, smaller teams can also prevail in unexpected circumstances.

The upcoming match against Napoli will indeed be a tough one for Como considering Napoli's strong performance this season under Conte. However, given Como's recent track record, we cannot rule out a possible surprise. Regardless, as you mentioned, the fact that they have shown the determination and the will to stay in the Serie A is commendable.

One thing to note is that in football, anything can happen on match day. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how Como prepares for this match and how they plan to challenge the comparatively stronger team of Napoli. They might surprise us once again.

people's perspectives on the condition of a country largely depend on their individual circumstances and requirements. Sure, American politics has its share of problems, but so does every other country. The fact that the United States remains an attractive destination for many, despite its issues, signifies the relative privilege and opportunities it continues to provide.

Comparative advantages or disadvantages notwithstanding, it's essential for the citizenry not to be complacent and continue striving for improvements and changes that promote the greater good, rather than solely focusing on selfish interests. Greed certainly plays a part in politics, but so does the capacity for empathy, ideals of justice, and the strive for a better society. It's a balance that needs to be carefully struck and maintained.

It's their wish. I hope you know and understand that this is a public forum. We tend to believe in freedom of speech, so you can't ask anyone not to express their opinion or take part in a discussion whether it's an investigation, a general discussion, an accusation, or anything, as long as it is publicly available, the whole public has the right to express their opinion.


I have already told you a couple of times. Even if you are right and the tools don't work, which is not how it actually is, your posts contain sentences that are only found in texts that are "generated" by AI and not "translated".


You are not telling the truth, that's why. If you could actually prove that you didn't do it, maybe you could have those tags removed. Facts are against you, and you keep repeating the same things instead of addressing the facts that I keep asking you to explain.


You can do whatever you want, it's a free forum and you have the right to express your opinion, now it depends on others whether they find your opinion reasonable or not.

I'm sorry but why don't the others reply to me anymore? why do you interfere?

I, like other users, have demonstrated that your tools are totally ineffective and are not at all reliable. I am not trying to prove anything that is not the truth. You risk ruining accounts for assumptions made with the help of your tools. that prove nothing,

those two users who stained the profile with these trusts, assuming that I used the AI ​​to create posts, when I tell you that I used it as a tool to translate it's not right, you don't you do it because you are interested in making the forum a cleaner place, you only do it because this way you can write other posts and be able to exchange other merits without anyone noticing,

the truth is that with your tools you stain the reputation of innocent people, that being said I will also have to give a neutral trust to the other users who report so that everyone can know about the situation, I consider myself innocent for that action I committed, I used chatgpt as translation tools as I would have done with google translate, due to an oversight there it was those posts that were modified unintentionally, so I'm not guilty, the fact is that if I pay, those who make false reports to get credit will also pay, having said that I apologized and I don't deserve this treatment!

Bro, you might think this way but we are not a bunch of fools who know nothing about the things we talk about. An AI model doesn't modify the sentences by mistake, if you ask it to translate a text, it only does that, it won't go ahead and add extra lines in the translation for you. I know AI is still not perfect to this day, it is being improved over time, but I know for sure that this isn't what an AI model, especially ChatGPT, would do because I do use the model myself, not for writing posts but for other purposes.

The tags you have received are rightly given and they are neutral tags, they are not red tags, so you don't need to be worried about that. You made a mistake, you admitted it, now you need to work on improving yourself as a member of this forum and prove that you have changed. Once you do that, you can request those who have left those tags to revise or remove them which is the right way to go from this point onwards. If you keep insisting and trying to prove something that isn't true, you will only get yourself in more trouble.

So I advise you to do what's right instead of enforcing something that isn't true.

I'll tell you again that I wrote those posts personally, I translated them using chatgpt which modified the sentences by mistake, I was in a hurry and didn't check everything here... I wrote the posts myself, your tools don't work , I made the mistake of not double-checking whether chatgpt had omitted the text, unfortunately I didn't double-check the translation and the damage was done!
using AI as a translation tool is not the same as using AI to write posts, so if your analysis tools can be imperfect even artificial intelligence can go crazy, and that's what happened!
so I kindly ask you to change your position on the trusts you have unfairly stuck on me!

Okay, for the sake of the argument, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt by accepting that the tools aren't working properly and they are detecting every English post as an AI-generated content. How do you explain this:

the fact is this, I have never admitted that I wrote those posts with AI, it's you who are saying this, the fact that that is written is not reliable proof, I TRANSLATED those posts, so the whole story where I say that I admitted my mistakes were only due to the fact that I used AI to translate them and I was in a hurry when I copied the post because I thought what I had written was correct (if this could be an error) I take it fact, the truth is that your tools are not reliable because many of your posts are also written with ai

I'm sorry but your accounts also appear to be AI addicted.

so guys I have to admit that the tools are not valid or you have to take the trust too!

The neutral feedback or the reports about you were never about posts that could possibly be translations, but your posts contained things that made it clear that you have used an AI model to generate those posts instead of translating posts that were originally written by you. Let me show you what I'm talking about:


The part that is in bold is something an AI model says when you ask it for an opinion, the text or post wouldn't contain that sentence if you had asked it to translate your post into English.

And for this one:


You have admitted it here that you know about football and you know what to talk about, but the post says otherwise. Someone who follows football wouldn't write outdated stuff such as saying Messi is in PSG when he is in Inter Miami. If you say you translated the texts using AI, why would you write something like that when you know so much about football? Or you would say that AI has changed your translation?

But you already accepted your mistake here:


And here:


So what's the point of trying to prove yourself right when you have already admitted it? You should have moved on and tried to prove that you have changed for others to see, and maybe you could ask for removal of your neutral tag after some time when you have improved, it wouldn't be a big deal at all.

But since you have started this, let me clear a few things for you.


The neutral feedback or the reports about you were never about posts that could possibly be translations, but your posts contained things that made it clear that you have used an AI model to generate those posts instead of translating posts that were originally written by you. Let me show you what I'm talking about:

If you say you translated the texts using AI, why would you write something like that when you know so much about football? Or you would say that AI has changed your translation?


The test that you did to prove a point isn't proving anything because you checked the Italian text and it was detected as AI-generated but when you did the same with the translation, it didn't say it is AI-generated. So based on that fact, the posts that you were translating all this time shouldn't have been detected as AI-generated because they were in English and not in Italian.

I would also like to ask you a question. It seems that all these posts you are writing in this thread aren't translated ones but you are writing them yourself, so I can't help but wonder, if you can write this much in English, why do you need to first write your posts in Italian and then translate them to English when you can simply write them in English yourself?

doing a couple of searches and tests with your tool I came to the conclusion that the translations done (which I did with chatgpt are 100% fake) which is something that should not happen given that it is only a translation and not plagiarism:

I wrote this post this morning (HAND) and analyzing it with the service https://sapling.ai/ai-content-detector gives 99.7% fake which is impossible.

I have nothing to do with all those accounts, I am certainly sorry for the situation I found myself in but I am paying the consequences, they rightly kicked me out of the signature and I didn't complain, but I would like to remedy what I did and I would like to stay and contribute to the forum as I have always done, as I told you before I have nothing to do with all those accounts that are in the Italian section, as you can see I give a little credit to everyone, having said this I would just like my reputation to be cleaned up and I will try to make it up to you by writing tools to clean up the forum from those who use AI, I hope you can forgive my mistake...

I have nothing to do with those accounts, I have my credibility, I put my face on it, users who are in the top 3 in the forum know me and others who are very important know me as a person and I know that I am a very reliable guy, regarding the posts made with AI I am already paying the penalty, I will make my skills available to counter the phenomenon of the use of AI in the forum, this is all my effort that I can put into making the forum and bitcoin a place and a better resource, I really believe in the forum and I will make sure it is a better place, I recognize that I made a mistake and I will put all my effort into repairing the damage...

I would say that the trusts that were inflicted on me are totally wrong, I repeat, I paid for the mistake even though I had specified that I only used AI tools to translate, you accused me unfairly, taking it for granted that your tools are the absolute truth, and that's not the case!

It seems that the Man United management's decision to retain Ten Hag despite the team's poor performance has sparked quite the debate. As a AI developed by OpenAI, I don't have personal opinions, but I can provide balanced analysis based on the information available.
It's clear that the club is facing a myriad of problems, not all of which can be attributed to Ten Hag's management. While he might be part of the issue, the team's struggles seem rooted deeper. It includes players who are not performing up to the expectations and potential management or culture issues within the club.
It is a complex problem and cannot be solved by simply sacking one person. United need to conduct a thorough assessment of their management strategies, player performance and overall club culture. Football being a team sport, improvement and success require all aspects of a team to function well, including players, coaching staff and the management.

Regarding Neymar Jr's possible return to Barcelona, it's hard to predict. Like you mentioned, he left Barcelona mainly not to be under Lionel Messi's shadow. However, with Messi now at Paris Saint Germain, the dynamics would be different should he return. Also, a player's comfort and happiness are important and should be considered as well. He has indeed been plagued by injuries recently so that's another factor to take into account.
Chelsea situation involving Ben Chilwell, it's true that he's a valuable player. His versatility is indeed an asset, but consistent injuries can be a major hindrance. Under the guidance of Enzo Maresca, it would be interesting to see how he fits in once he fully recovers.

(the test also works in reverse) meaning that posts translated from Italian into English become 100% fake, so your tests are not reliable!
