So, now every Bitcoin miner, or owner possesses child porn? :shock:

Blockchain Being Used to Share Child Pornography, Researchers Say
Hamza Shaban, The Washington Post, 23 March 2018

German researchers have found about 1,600 files of non-financial data, some of which link to or contain child pornography and other objectionable material, on the system that stores Bitcoin transactions.

The discovery could place certain users of the Bitcoin network in legal jeopardy, the researchers said, and could pose an obstacle for greater adoption and mainstream acceptance of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin "miners" and people who have volunteered to use their computers to maintain the network may be liable for the possession of illegal content, the researchers said. But people who own and trade Bitcoin but don't participate in the Bitcoin network are not directly affected.

The researchers analysed about 1,600 files on Bitcoin's blockchain, the public ledger that serves as the infrastructure for cryptocurrency transactions. Most of the files were harmless, the researchers concluded, but some contained copyright violations and the disclosure of people's identifiable information, and at least eight files had sexual content. Some files depict or link to "mildly pornographic content," and two files contain 274 links to child pornography websites, the researchers found. Another file is believed to depict a nude image of a minor, the researchers said.

"We thus believe that future blockchain designs must proactively cope with objectionable content," the researchers from Aachen University and Goethe University Frankfurt wrote in their research paper, which was presented last month at an international conference on financial cryptography in Curacao.

Experts say that the files likely got there when people added the material as notes to transactions or inserted them as if they were transactions themselves. People using the blockchain can add non-financial data to describe a transaction's purpose, insert benign messages or record information for other financial services. Anyone with access to the Bitcoin software has the ability to upload content to the blockchain, including miners, exchanges and other individual users.

It isn't known who uploaded the offending material. The seven researchers did not respond to a request for comment.

Although users on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube may see objectionable content posted by others, people who maintain aspects of blockchain-based systems may actually be in possession of such content even if they did not produce it themselves. That's because people who maintain the Bitcoin network have to download the entire blockchain or parts of it.

"Since all blockchain data is downloaded and persistently stored by users, they are liable for any objectionable content added to the blockchain by others," the researchers said. It's difficult to pinpoint who added the objectionable files because users on the Bitcoin blockchain are pseudonymous and can generate a new address for every transaction.

The researchers said there is legislation in several countries, including the United States, that suggests that illegal content held on the blockchain would be unlawful to possess for all its users. The researchers suggested that technologists creating new blockchain designs could address these issues, perhaps by preventing people from inserting such files or halting their spread, to protect users from potential liability.

Christian Catalini, a professor and founder of MIT's Cryptoeconomics Lab, said that the offensive material the researchers found in the blockchain does not present a major problem right now because the blockchain was not designed as a large-scale file storage system - meaning it's still hard for people to use it to post offensive content. But as developers create new blockchains primarily for hosting files, the posting of offensive material could become an issue, he said.

As with certain communications platforms on the web - such as social media, blog platforms and chat forums - engineers could set rules or create filters for illicit material. "The choice of accessing all sorts of content already exists, and that is a result of having the internet," Catalini said. "What's novel here is we have a new technology, but the solution is the same."

While Bitcoin's value soared last year, the cryptocurrency market has faced heightened scrutiny, even as more people are turning to virtual currencies as an investment option. Google said recently that it will ban cryptocurrency-related advertisements on its platform, following a similar decision by Facebook earlier this year, in an attempt to stem misleading ads. The Federal Trade Commission is also cracking down on alleged cryptocurrency schemes and filed a lawsuit last week.

As of Wednesday, the total market capitalisation of cryptocurrencies was more than $350 billion, according to the cryptocurrency tracker coinmarketcap.com.

Actor Steven Seagal made headlines in February when he endorsed the "Bitcoiin" cryptocurrency, but his role as brand ambassador has apparently come to an end......


"As Bitcoiin goes through the conversion phase from token to mineable coin we wish to advise that Bitcoiin will join the likes of the original Bitcoin and become a truly open source.....


what is "Bitcoiin"??? I feeling out of the loop... otherwise to me, other than the scam itself, the articles on it seems like ulterior bull scare marketing for those who think its about Bitcoin....

Same here, did some averaging down.
Still need some more bags but overall contented with the stack.
If prices remain this low, plan is to stock up every month.

Hello crypto gurus
I would like to get some advice from you all. Did not mean to divert the conversation, but really need your attention.
I started to buy some cryptos recently. opened an account in coinmama and use my credit card to buy using USD. my question is
how can I sell my coins (whenever i am ready) and change it to fiat money (TTD or USD) locally. I know there may not be straight conversion to TTD. What are my options. I am sure you guys have knowledge on this. Please advise. Thanks a million.

The fastest way is using localbitcoins. I dealt with about 4 traders so far in terms of buying and they are legit. You send your BTC to your localbitcoins account/wallet where you can post them for sale at a selected price, or select buyers once you agree to their price. Once a transaction is started, your funds will be in Escrow. You can meet with the person who will give you the cash or they can do a bank transfer or deposit. They will then mark the transaction as paid uploading their receipt, and once you verify receiving the funds, the BTC will be released to the buyer. There is also the paypal option on localbitcoins where you sell your BTC and your paypal gets credited but I never tried it. You can also check out Bitpanda.

Coinbase doesn't accept T&T as yet but you can try Gemini. Another workaround is buying physical commodities like Gold or Silver from companies who accept BTC if you want out of cryptos but not ready for cash in the short-medium term.

If you are selling, PM me.

Can’t take it with you? $190mn of crypto funds ‘inaccessible’ after password holder dies

Embattled Canadian crypto exchange QuadrigaCX, already embroiled in a variety of previous legal cases, claims that it no longer has access to roughly $190 million of clients’ holdings, though experts are not convinced.

QuadrigaCX says founder Gerald Cotten died unexpectedly “due to complications with Crohn’s disease on December 9, 2018 while travelling in India” – and was the only person who knew the password to the company’s alleged “cold wallet” where it kept the vast majority of client holdings.

A “cold wallet” is a physical data storage device that is not connected to the internet.

In a sworn affidavit with the Nova Scotia Supreme Court, Cotten’s widow Jennifer Robertson claimed that she does not know the password and her husband was the only who did. They had even hired an expert to crack into the laptop but was unable to beat the device’s encryption.

Cotten allegedly held “sole responsibility for handling the funds and coins” for an exchange that boasts roughly 26,500 Bitcoin ($92.3 million USD), 11,000 Bitcoin Cash ($1.3 million), 11,000 Bitcoin Cash SV ($707,000), 35,000 Bitcoin Gold ($352,000), nearly 200,000 Litecoin ($6.5 million) and about 430,000 Ethereum ($46 million), totaling $147 million.

Weeks after announcing the founder’s death, the company’s site went down, ostensibly for ‘maintenance’, while in addition, the figure cited in the affidavit was inaccurate. The combination of peculiar circumstances prompted many cryptocurrency experts to question the official story.

In-depth analysis of the blockchain (a distributed ledger of transactions across several computers, accessed via a peer-to-peer network) by cryptocurrency researchers and analysts determined that the company had, in fact, never lost access to its Bitcoin wallet, calling its version of events into disrepute and further fuelling speculation among the crypto community about what was going on.

The company was already under investigation by The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce for payment processing irregularities, which seized $26 million in assets in January 2018. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice also found that approximately $67 million worth of transactions were improperly transferred into the personal account the payment processor.

Meanwhile, Quadriga has filed for a stay of legal proceedings to allow the company and “its contractors additional time to find whatever stores of cryptocurrency may be available”, Robertson wrote.

The company is also reportedly considering selling off its operating platform to pay users back. A court hearing to decide the company’s short-term legal fate is set for Tuesday, February 5.

TheOne wrote:Has anyone ever considered the purchase or has successfully purchased Bitcoins or other cryptocurrency? Its appears to be catching on as a revolutionary form of (virtual)money. Just simply want to know if anyone has successfully purchased any and from whom did they purchase.

I think its a good investment to purchase and forget about. Would be beneficial in about 10 years time I think.

Find some info here: http://www.bitcoin.org


I successfully purchased my first ones at the end of last year, but used them quickly as transaction medium for investment programs or even some coffee shops. I do believe in it strongly. It has a lot of quialities for everyday use and is the next logical step, It just needs some more tuning, time and trust.

I am minig Electroneum thru mobil app and Presearch coin every time I search the web instead of google. So I monetized this daily activity in a clever way. Also I started using Bit.tube instead of Youtube. Bit.tube pays content creators and also viewers + no ads and is decentralized.
