What do we do to those ChatGPT Posters?
Do we report here, and did moderators take any actions before? I will still report here in case moderators want to take a look. Look like this guy recently found out how ChatGPT and other AI work.  I don't want to quote his other posts, but I've checked his post history. All of them are AI Generated Content.

There are several developments in the pipeline that could potentially boost the adoption of Bitcoin. Here are a few examples:

Lightning Network Improvements: Although the Lightning Network has been around for a few years, there are still ongoing efforts to improve its performance, reliability, and user experience. For example, the Lightning Network team is working on a new version of the protocol called Lightning Network Daemon (LND) 0.11, which promises to bring significant improvements in terms of speed, usability, and privacy.

Layer 2 Solutions: Besides the Lightning Network, there are other Layer 2 solutions that could improve the scalability and usability of Bitcoin, such as sidechains and state channels. These solutions aim to address some of the limitations of the Bitcoin blockchain, such as slow confirmation times and high transaction fees.

Institutional Adoption: Over the past few years, there has been a growing interest from institutional investors and companies in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. This trend could potentially lead to more widespread adoption of Bitcoin, as it would increase its legitimacy and visibility.

Regulatory Clarity: The regulatory environment around Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is still evolving, and there is a lot of uncertainty and ambiguity in some jurisdictions. Clearer and more consistent regulations could potentially make it easier for businesses and individuals to use Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as it would reduce the risks and uncertainties associated with regulatory compliance.

Overall, while there may not be a single "killer app" or upgrade that will drive the adoption of Bitcoin, there are several ongoing developments and trends that could contribute to its growth and wider use

I will copy/paste the answer I got from Exodus support after my question to them about the high transaction fee.

This UTXO model is based entirely on individual transactions, grouped in blocks. We can compare this to people holding certain amounts of cash.

    A user that holds 50 BTC might be in control of a single UTXO worth 50 BTC, or a combination of UTXOs (payments) that add up to 50 BTC.
 
This user is an innocent, you should read the whole thread first.

Thanks for that. I just removed the post. The user forgot about sharing the reference link and that caused the trouble. It seems like that Exodus support team copied and spin the sentences rather than the user or maybe it was auto-generated through a bot. Thanks for confirming that buddy, it would be a huge burden on my shoulder if unknowingly I have done that to an innocent person. I apologize for my misunderstanding of the situation.

Indeed, dear GazetaBitcoin.
And, we need to have a consideration, too: which message is being sent here, if someone can plagiarize multiple times, even gets caught, provides a very weak excuse (which is basically a justification because "posts are 2 years old" and he "forgot about it") and for all of this, he get's away and NOTHING happens, not even a temporary signature ban. What message is sending this to abusers? You can plagiarize, you can do it multiple times, you can be a participant in a paid signature campaign, while doing it, you can get caught - but you won't get ANY consequences...  Roll Eyes

Probably mods did not want to upset him. They took this into account:

A ban would make me sad.

At same time, he encouraged the mods to handel the offense:

If I did something wrong, then please handel just like any other user on the forum, I think this is fair.

It seems no mod decided to handel the report, in order to not make poor MinoRaiola sad...



I am part of this gang as well  Roll Eyes
You are right but it's not very difficult to get part of it.  Cheesy

The more the merrier  Cheesy



LMAOO, I haven't seen this until now.  Cheesy
What does his pyramid quote even want to say?
I really don't know, it's 100% bullshit.

Lol! At least, he tried to miximize that quote as much as it was possible. Meaning to quote everything!

Let's try to re-read everything though:

What we can do is to tag these accounts accordingly.
+1 exactly that.
To create some awareness about obvious wrongdoing being relevant to signature campaigns, like plagiarism is very relevant, a neutral tag is a very good decision to create awareness. It's not possible for campaign managers to read every post on the forum and keep everything in mind. A neutral tag, as provided by us, will give campaign managers a fair heads-up to be able too look into the issue and decide for themselves.

I already tagged the plagiarist again, this time for changing rules of a contest while the contest was on-going. This is unethical and unprofessional.



For example, let's not forget that MinoRaiola, while currently promoting pornography even better than the old perv Timelord2067, also cheats on his own contest, where he changes the rules while the contest is live. This is totally unprofessional.
LOL, what a weirdo.  Lips sealed
I'm not a friend of crypto being tied to pornography and abuse and it's really a tiny margin of BTC being tied to it but I would stay far away from contributing to that tiny margin BTC is tied to such shady stuff.  Lips sealed
And MinoRaiola is not just promoting it, he's actively facilitating it. What a perv.
Shame, shame.  Roll Eyes

MinoRaiola is the new Italian stallion perv of the forum! The next Rocco Siffredi!



Anyone that needs to interact with many users would find it useful to maintain their own personal lists beyond using others. External sources can be outdated, lacking in scope, arbitrary, and have a number of possible issues.

This is true. But, if a manager is too busy, at least this topic exists as well, complementary to some others (including yours)  Smiley

BTCitcoin has become the talk of the town in recent years. It is a digital currency that has gained immense popularity among investors and traders. In fact, it is considered to be the future of money. it's decentralized, meaning it's not controlled by any government or central authority. Its limited supply and increasing adoption by mainstream companies have contributed to its success. Despite facing challenges in the past, Bitcoin has also proven to be resilient and has emerged as a popular investment option for those seeking an alternative to traditional assets. While there are risks involved, Bitcoin's future looks bright as it continues to gain popularity among investors and traders and also potential to provide high returns on investment. If you're considering investing in Bitcoin, it's important to do your research and understand the risks involved. However, if you're willing to take the risk, Bitcoin has the potential to provide high returns on investment in the long run.

Telegram messaging app users can now purchase, withdraw, and exchange Bitcoin (BTC) through the Wallet bot and its associated services.

This move, announced on April 21, builds upon Telegram’s existing services related to cryptocurrencies, but it is noteworthy that the Wallet bot was created by a third-party developer using Telegram’s open bot API.

The @wallet web interface now enables users to buy Bitcoin using a bank card or the P2P market in the “Buy & Sell” section. Additionally, the platform’s updated “Exchange” feature instantly swaps Bitcoin, Tether (USDT), and Telegram Open Network (TON) with each other.

This development is a significant addition to Telegram’s cryptocurrency services, which are already widely used within the app. Telegram’s open API allows developers to create their own crypto-related bots, which can be used without any direct involvement from Telegram.


My Question; How secured is this project? considering the facts that telegram can be hack with some sophisticated softwares.

5. Giftability: A physical gift card for Bitcoin can be a unique and thoughtful gift for someone who is interested in technology or finance. It can also be a great way to introduce someone to the world of digital currencies, and to help them understand the benefits and potential of this emerging technology.

6.Fast Transaction Process
Transactions follow a specific process, depending on the blockchain they are taking place on. For example, on Bitcoin's blockchain, if you initiate a transaction using your cryptocurrency wallet the application that provides an interface for the blockchain it starts a sequence of events
but with the introduction of physical bitcoin gift card you don’t need the blockchain to carry out transactions for you when sending bitcoins to loved ones,just take a picture of the card and send to your loved one.

According to AAS Institute, the birth of the Blockchain was in an era when the global financial market was encountering the following challenges:

1. High Transaction fee.
2. Double spending.
3. Susceptible to fraud.
4. Non- censorship Resistant.
5. Inaccessible during holidays or weekends.
6. Transfer limits.
7. Too many documents.
8. Global Financial Constraint… amidst others.

WHAT IS BLOCKCHAIN?
The term “blockchain technology” typically refers to the transparent, trustless, and a publicly accessible ledger that allows users to securely transfer the ownership of units of value using public key encryption and proof of work methods.
Blockchain is also a system of recording information in a way that makes it difficult or virtually impossible to modify or delete, change, hack, or cheat the system.

In addition, MinoRaiola is part of the gambling board spammer list compiled by Igebotz.
He ~ my judgment for including him on the list of gambling board spammers

Can't believe this guy is such an awesome shitposter that he was proposed to be banned from an entire board! He reminds me of franky1, which was banned from Development and Technical Discussion.

And, based on Igebotz's explanation,

why is this? I bet the majority of those who applied to those campaigns had no knowledge of the game, but because the rules require a minimum of 10 posts on the gambling board, most of these users with no knowledge of the game just spam the hell out of the board

MinoRaiola does not even know rules of football? Looooooooooooooooool! Can't believe this!

This user, actually used a paraphrasing tool

The term "dollar thief" is equally absurd as "bitcoin thief." These arbitrary connections are made by articles and blogs to make their topic titles appealing and perhaps draw in some bitcoin audience members. It may also be a government ruse to link Bitcoin as much as possible to fraud in an effort to discourage potential users from adopting it. Regardless, we shouldn't support their low-impact financial policies that target bitcoin and its role in promoting financial freedom.

Original post from: upgrade 00

A dollar thief is just as ridiculous a phrase as Bitcoin thief is. Articles and blogs make these loose associations to make their topic title catchy and maybe attract a bit of the cryptocurrency audience.

If could also be a ploy by the government to associate Bitcoin as much as possible to scams which should dissuade people from using it if they were considering it. Whichever it is, we should not promote their low impact financial policies targeted against bitcoin and their role in finance freedom.

Bitcoin address is a unique identifier that serve as virtual location where crptocurrency can sent.
           It is a long 27-34 string of alphanumeric that acts similarly to an email address or username in any social network. These are also utilized to timestamp and record each and every transaction in the Blockchain.

It can denote one single individual, a group of persons, or any organization depending on their team spirit and level of security maintained.
        So therefore It is advisable to use a new address every time of transaction.

Have you ever wonder if bitcoin is being govern by any company?
 Well bitcoin is not a company own by someone and it's also not control by anyone,it has no CEO,no president and rulling council.the software is a protocol and work on it own and being upgraded by developers.
  They are also supported by groups like miner who eho own the machine that generate new bitcoin and maintain the security of the network.
So no one person or group can unilaterally make changes to the software that run it network.

My anaylsis from crypto updates, An experts believe that the rising interest rates and tighter monetary policy will not allow Bitcoin to rebound sharply in the near future. As in this kind of uncertain market, investors will not prefer to invest or buy risky assets such as Bitcoin.
Analysts believe the crypto market will recover in 2023. By the end of the year, the bulk of the bear market will be behind us; however, a full bull market, going by bitcoin price history, is not guaranteed. Some believe the bottom will be reached in the first quarter of 2023, with bitcoin falling to $10,000 or lower.

So far, the crypto market has had a wild year. Many events have occurred in the past few months, including the halving of large altcoins and the bankruptcy of crypto exchanges. There has been speculation regarding the future of cryptocurrencies in 2023 and whether they will be bullish or bearish. Instead, let’s explore potential trends for the New Year, as it is impossible to predict the future.
 THERE HAS FINALLY BEEN A RECOVERY

These price declines might cause most altcoins to decline by 60% to 80%. The price of Cardano may drop to around 10 cents. This might be an opportunity for those who want to buy or a signal that its reputation as the Ethereum killer has ended. WATCH OUT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER

Since the majority of the users on my list are still in their various campaigns and are still getting paid, I don't believe my list has had any impact yet; perhaps managers aren't seeing it as frequently because these users aren't tagged (I see it as inappropriate use of the system).
Yes, especially gambling-related camapigns are of interest, where the respective signature campaign manager is responsible.
But I really believe your list is very useful. Even if there's little impact, a little positive impact is still very positive for Bitcointalk. So far, at least icopress is considering your list and maybe more signature campaign managers will follow because it's not beneficial for advertised services at all to reward excessive spammers for one-liners on page 100 of a topic, only visited by other one-liner spammers.
Regarding a tag, I can imagine that a neutral tag similar to actmyname's approach can be a good solution but it would be quite a lot of work for you and if most signature campaign managers don't care anyways, it's probably wasted time, so I can understand your point here.



Yes, I'm a bit surprised why temporary bans are "out" after all. A temporary signature ban is rather soft; people can still write posts as usual. It isn't affecting normal discussions at all. I really don't know why this procedure has been abandoned as it's a great way to see if affected accounts should be given a second chance, if they'll contribute to the forum without paid signature or if they are really just here to spam to earn a few sats.

That would entail the moderators compiling a list of temp banned users and monitoring their activities to determine whether they deserve a second chance or not. This is something I doubt the mods would want to get involved in; it's a good idea, but it would add to their workload.
My suggestion was more about the community monitoring the activity of temporary signature-banned accounts, for example if their post count is dropping significantly, when wearing no signature.
Moderators would only need to issue a temporary signature ban (1 year) as it's being done right now, the account owner could still write posts normally, just not earn from signature campaigns for 1 year (while his signature is deisbaled) and that's it, from a moderator perspective.
It would be up to the community to review it and leave a neutral trust (like actmyname) after the temporary signature ban, if there's a clear drop of weekly posts, indicating that the affected account has only been used toearn a few easy sats or similar.
Such cases could also be handled in a community managed list of temporary signature banned accounts, which couldn't convice our community that they are not just here to spam to earn a few sats.
Once again, signature campaign managers would need to enforce such lists as every abuser would get his signature space enabled again, as it's only a temporary ban.
It's not easy to find a solution here, so it's just an idea right now.  Smiley

Mine is limited to active gambling board posters, whereas actmyname covers the entire forum. I believe mine will be useful for managers who are only interested in gambling posts, but that list hasn't been updated in a while because I rarely visit those mega spam threads, and I only read and post in moderated threads with users who are actually gamblers and not just posting for the sake of signature.

The signature ban hasn't occurred in years; now, it's either you're banned or you're pardoned. The latter is the current trend.
