What's the most efficient way to find homograph plagiarism? I found a post earlier that seemed like plagiarism but when I searched a phrase from the post on google it didn't find any hits, but it did suggest that several of the words were spelled wrong by underlining them with red squiggles. When I completely retyped the phrase I was then able to find at least one other exact match on the forum, so I then reported the post with the link to the other post that matched it. So, mission accomplished, but it was a pain to do.
I haven't found an easier way to do that.

Quote
I also noticed that simply quoting the post in question also highlighted several of the words as misspelled, even though they looked to be spelled correctly (e.g. - any, agency, of) and that got me to thinking that if I could merely report the use of homographs that it would save a lot of effort.
It depends on the Mod handling it. Sometimes they get banned, but the last time, after I spent an hour reporting 1-200 homograph spambots, most of them only had one of their posts deleted. That's a complete waste of time, and I haven't reported any homographs since.

P.S. - thanks for catching my post about lima. earlier, LoyceV; I wasn't sure whether to report him/it/her or not.

Am I right or should I report this in some other way?

It's up to you but I always use the report to moderator link first and post here if either it doesn't get handled or it is too complicated to explain in the report text.

Edit:
Also always check on BPIP https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=maremostro

This one is already banned.

Please consider banning* Newbie lima. for plagiarism. He first had just a quote without adding anything, then edited it after iasenko told him to ~snip~ his quote.

Copy
Original


Credits for finding this one:
this is either plagiarism or, at least, a zero-value post.

* I'm not sure if this deserves a ban, it could just be a dumb Newbie mistake instead of plagiarism. Either way, his post doesn't add anything.

The world is slowly understanding and getting involved with the trading industry. Upon seeing the vast opportunity in the said industry, it has even penetrated in the digital realm. But because of the fact that to get involved with the trading or Forex industry, not only does it require expertise and knowledge but some huge cash as well to play the game of trade real hard, this makes it totally inaccessible by the vast majority. This leaves a great number of the global population being indifferent about it or finding it hard to start getting into it.

The growing popularity of bitcoin in the world divides people. There are many controversial opinions about digital currency. Supporters, fans and investors encourage people to invest in crypto currency. On the other hand, there are also many opponents, such as China, for example, which prohibits the trading of bitcoins.

Asia invests more
There are two Asian countries that are increasingly interested in cryptocurrency. Japanese and South Korean citizens are found to invest more in digital currency. People from these two Asian countries really receive bitcoin! Many traders use it for their business as well.

Why is that?

According to Reuters, China's cracks have a big impact on this situation. However, there are other factors that contribute to increased interest in bitcoin. The Japanese government has officially recognized the digital currency as a means of payment. Right beside the original money, bitcoin is now the official means of payment in Japan. According to CoinMarketCap, Japan and South Korea are home to multiple high traffic cryptocurrency exchanges.

Another factor that makes a huge impact on the digital currency market in these two countries, is the fact that there are no rules for investor protection, which unfortunately, attracts many swindlers as well. The good thing is that South Korea is planning major improvements by 2017, and will put a lot of effort into transaction security in the bitcoin world.

Also of interest is the fact that Indians are also interested in bitcoin investing. Due to the high volume of digital currency investments in previous years, many cheats appeared in this market as well. Since there are no strict and clear rules for cryptocurrency in India, we can see a number of pyramid schemes in this country.

Who's next?

By 2014, we can see a huge increase in bitcoin investments around the world. Leading countries, according to Coindesk, where for example almost all North America, India, Panama, Argentina, Mexico.

As shown by the infographs below, countries with the largest number of ATMs for bitcoin withdrawal are the United States and Canada, and right after they are British, Spanish and Finnish.

Bits & Cash : Number of Bitcoin ATMs by Country
  • 1. United States => 554
  • 2. Canad => 135
  • 3. United Kingdom => 47
  • 4. Spain => 27
  • 5. Finland => 18
  • 6. Austria => 15
  • 7. Czech Replubic => 15
  • 8. Switzerland => 15
  • 9. Australia => 13
  • 10. Japan => 11

Bitcoin ATMs continent (in %)

  • North America 73.23%
  • Europe 20.42%
  • Asia 4.13%
  • Oceania 1.80%
  • South America 0.32%
  • Africa 0.11%

As we can notice, the bitcoin mania spreads all over the world, from America to Asia, Africa and Europe.

What do you think, which countries will be next to invest in bitcoins?

Today to the scientist to implement the project need to be in some way an entrepreneur. Thousands of scientists live in the world with patents on their hands, which they cannot monetize on their own. There is a gap between science and the practical application of technology. And here is a brilliant idea for the USAT project team. To create a non-profit organization and invite scientists from all over the world to monetize their developments together, and the income from the implementation of projects to reinvest in the research activities of other ideas through the usat token.

I think Neo is much more established, it would be one of the best choices. i would also suggest u look into the newly introduced projects but with a very promising future. Projects like Pundi X, they already have their products running and you are rewarded for holding their token for the next 3 years. i know it carries high risk, but with high risk comes high returns. You can do your research and decide

For me, in any cryptocurrency the bitcoin is the mother, bitcoin is the popular to all users in cryptocurrencies. and because the bitcoin is still alive and its too far to disappear, I will consider it as a future of cryptocurrency not etherium.
I saw in the ranking of cryptocurrencies, the etherium is only number two so if the bitcoin will end then the etherium will next to it.

Everyday we see threads about hacked/locked accounts, which are not only beginners' accounts but also for Legendary members'.  In addition to the brute force hacking risk, there are peculiar risks in the current system and by data breach in 2015.  The security of the forum account has been one of the biggest issue.  The improvement of security, e.g. requiring email verification for changing password/email, introduction of 2FA, automated account recovery system, and the new forum software with stronger security would be ideal.  

Meanwhile, until these features are implemented, what we can do now is to learn how the current bitcointalk system works, how to improve the security of your bitcointalk account, and also what you should do in case your account is hacked/locked.  In this thread, I tried to provide a thorough guide about these topics.  I hope it helps to reduce the number of hacked/lost accounts.

Bitcoin prices hit $ 300 in just under a minute after nearly 48 hours of trading on the sideways, at the same time as the BitMEX platform .
This "extraordinary" incident occurred when the BTC jumped from $ 6,466 to $ 6,745 in a one-minute candle on Bitfinex, and Bitcoin has since continued to rise, surpassing $ 6,800 and peaked at $ 6,899 before falling back to $ 6,840. at the time the post was made.
There is a sign that this price movement, which began at the moment of sudden drop in trading volume, is not entirely "natural". This is because the BTC has risen at the right time at BitMEX, a leveraged electronic money platform that spans billions of dollars in electronic money margin each day, announcing a temporary Interrupt operation for system maintenance purposes.

Cardano, founded by one of the first Erthereum developers by Charles Hoskinson, is a decentralized platform that provides a reliable and scalable complex programmable transfer of value. It is based on technology designed to create a new decentralized economy and democratize finance in emerging markets. Cardano seeks to become a platform for smart contracts by developing a new functional programming language known as Haskell, which allows "to write in a more secure and reliable way because it has a mathematical approach." It will surpass the etherium, I believe it.

Not because bitcoin can't handle large amounts of transactions without paying a large amount of current transaction costs, it doesn't automatically mean it's completely failed. Bitcoin will continue to be developed and will develop positively over time. I see Bitcoin in this way and I believe the increase in irregularities will be done soon.

Copy/Paste:

The main value of crypto currency is its immutability. Immutability, as it pertains to blockchains, is the idea that the public ledger can not be altered.  This is an important trait for blockchains to have for several reasons:

1)The moment the rules of the protocol change for reasons outside of technical improvements, you open up pandora's box:  Who's to determine what the criteria is for reversing transactions?  Why does one situation fit but not another? Is there a difference between someone who had their coins stolen or sent to the wrong address? If not, how do they prove their LTC was stolen?
2)Without immutability, the blockchain itself is no longer a useful tool for verification because it's transactional history is subject to the community and/or developers.  The reason for this is because those who break the rules will most likely break it again.   
For example, in June 2016 after the DAO hack, the Ethereum community had a choice: 1) fork away the stolen coins 2) deal with the consequences of the fork remain immutable. The community split which ultimately created Ethereum Classic and Ethereum.   
Fast forward a year and a half later and they are once again considering  another fork to refund people their ETH.  Not only that, EIP867 is a proposal to develop a standard to recover funds in the future.  Therefore, they expect and are even preparing to optionally change a ledger which is supposed to be used to reliably record transactions.
3)It maintains fungibility.  If a protocol were changed to suddenly "blacklist" LTC addresses because it is assumed those belonged to a thief, 1 LTC would no longer equal 1 LTC.  1 LTC would only equal 1 LTC as long as it's not associated with certain addresses.
4)It removes the "god-like" powers of developers.  They are no longer able to determine the fate of the blockchain no matter what their intentions may be.

Currently, the only 2 coins i know that have immutability are Bitcoin & Monero, which coin do you know other than these two ?

Immutability, as it pertains to blockchains, is the idea that the public ledger can not be altered.  This is an important trait for blockchains to have for several reasons:

    The moment the rules of the protocol change for reasons outside of technical improvements, you open up pandora's box:  Who's to determine what the criteria is for reversing transactions?  Why does one situation fit but not another? Is there a difference between someone who had their coins stolen or sent to the wrong address? If not, how do they prove their LTC was stolen?
    Without immutability, the blockchain itself is no longer a useful tool for verification because it's transactional history is subject to the community and/or developers.  The reason for this is because those who break the rules will most likely break it again.   
        For example, in June 2016 after the DAO hack, the Ethereum community had a choice: 1) fork away the stolen coins 2) deal with the consequences of the fork remain immutable. The community split which ultimately created Ethereum Classic and Ethereum.   
        Fast forward a year and a half later and they are once again considering  another fork to refund people their ETH.  Not only that, EIP867 is a proposal to develop a standard to recover funds in the future.  Therefore, they expect and are even preparing to optionally change a ledger which is supposed to be used to reliably record transactions.
    It maintains fungibility.  If a protocol were changed to suddenly "blacklist" LTC addresses because it is assumed those belonged to a thief, 1 LTC would no longer equal 1 LTC.  1 LTC would only equal 1 LTC as long as it's not associated with certain addresses.
    It removes the "god-like" powers of developers.  They are no longer able to determine the fate of the blockchain no matter what their intentions may be.

Everyday we see threads about hacked/locked accounts, which are not only beginners' accounts but also for Legendary members'.  In addition to the brute force hacking risk, there are peculiar risks in the current system and by data breach in 2015.  The security of the forum account has been one of the biggest issue.  The improvement of security, e.g. requiring email verification for changing password/email, introduction of 2FA, automated account recovery system, and the new forum software with stronger security would be ideal.  

Meanwhile, until these features are implemented, what we can do now is to learn how the current bitcointalk system works, how to improve the security of your bitcointalk account, and also what you should do in case your account is hacked/locked.  In this thread, I tried to provide a thorough guide about these topics.  I hope it helps to reduce the number of hacked/lost accounts.

Bitcoin prices hit $ 300 in just under a minute after nearly 48 hours of trading on the sideways, at the same time as the BitMEX platform .
This "extraordinary" incident occurred when the BTC jumped from $ 6,466 to $ 6,745 in a one-minute candle on Bitfinex, and Bitcoin has since continued to rise, surpassing $ 6,800 and peaked at $ 6,899 before falling back to $ 6,840. at the time the post was made.
There is a sign that this price movement, which began at the moment of sudden drop in trading volume, is not entirely "natural". This is because the BTC has risen at the right time at BitMEX, a leveraged electronic money platform that spans billions of dollars in electronic money margin each day, announcing a temporary Interrupt operation for system maintenance purposes.
