!Important Warning!

These Days some Mods containing Malware have been uploaded on various Sites.

The Sims After Dark Discord Server has posted the following Info regarding the Issue:

+++

Malware Update: What We Know Now To recap, here are the mods we know for sure were affected by the recent malware outbreak: "Cult Mod v2" uploaded to ModTheSims by PimpMySims (impostor account) "Social Events - Unlimited Time" uploaded to CurseForge by MySims4 (single-use account) "Weather and Forecast Cheat Menu" uploaded to The Sims Resource by MSQSIMS (hacked, real account) "Seasons Cheats Menu" uploaded to The Sims Resource by MSQSIMS (hacked, real account)

Due to this malware using an exe file, we believe that anyone using a Mac or Linux device is completely unaffected by this.

If the exe file was downloaded and executed on your Windows device, it has likely stolen a vast amount of your data and saved passwords from your operating system, your internet browser (Chrome, Edge, Opera, Firefox, and more all affected), Discord, Steam, Telegram, and certain crypto wallets. Thank you to anadius for decompiling the exe.

To quickly check if you have been compromised, press Windows + R on your keyboard to open the Run window. Enter %AppData%/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/UserData in the prompt and hit OK. This will open up the folder the malware was using. If there is a file in this folder called Updater.exe, you have unfortunately fallen victim to the malware. We are unware at this time if the malware has any function which would delete the file at a later time to cover its tracks.

To quickly remove the malware from your computer, Overwolf has put together a cleaner program to deal with it. This program should work even if you downloaded the malware outside of CurseForge. Download SimsVirusCleaner.exe from their github page linked here and run it. Once it has finished, it will give you an output about whether any files have been removed.

TwistedMexi made a Mod to help detect & block such Mods in the Future: https://www.patreon.com/posts/98126153

CurseForge took actions and added mechanics to prevent such Files to be uploaded, so downloading there should be safe.

In general be careful, where and what you download, and do not download my Mods at any other Places than my own Sites and my CurseForge Page.

United exchange is a simple platform that you can use to sell and Buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies and store them in our secure wallets.

Bitcoin, a global cryptocurrency was invented in 2008 by an unknown person or set of people using the name Satoshi Nakamoto which was primarily invented to be used as a medium of exchange in place of the fiat currency (INR, USD etc). The developers of Bitcoin hoped it to be backed by countries.

Bitcoin enables peer-to-peer transactions. The only difference is you don’t have to pay high transaction fees, and there is no centralized authority that regulates the working of Bitcoin. It uses the SHA-256 algorithm to ensure security.

While sending and receiving the money using Bitcoin, the anonymity of the user is maintained. It allows individuals to own their own money (without dependence on banks) and aims to bring financial stability for people who live in countries with unstable currencies.

In totality, 21 million bitcoins can be mined, whereas nearly 18 million coins have been mined. Once all these coins have been mined, the supply of bitcoins will be exhausted and the prices go up in this anticipation. At the moment, one BTC costs around 43, 58,343.74 Indian Rupee (INR), which would change the very next moment.

(1)Exchanges:How to choose the right platform

To break things down by which top priorities to consider, here are the most important factors that go into choosing where to trade:

Reputation

Safety and Security

Asset Selection

Customer Service

Trading Tools

Liquidity and Trading Volume

Other less important factors that also need to be considered according to each unique individual’s situation, include minimum deposits required, fees, company ethos, or even location. For example, some cryptocurrency platforms cannot cater to certain users from specific regions according to law.

Doing your own research into each platform is necessary to find the right platform tailored to suit your unique needs.

Reputation

This is subjective, but in the end, it is you that needs to be comfortable with the platform you have selected.

To learn more about each platform’s reputation, begin with Google search. Read the company Wikipedia entries, if they exist. Those that do have longevity will have more information available.

Many of these platforms offer thriving communities of their own, manage active sub-Reddits, and interact with users via social media.

Reviews of platforms can be helpful, but beware that many of these reviews are paid.

A company with a strong reputation will have a clear, transparent leadership team, a relatively low amount of user complaints (no one is perfect), and an active presence on social media.

Those without their own presence on social media should at least be the subject of positive chatter from other users on social media. Searching for hashtags related to each platform and more can be of major assistance.

Safety and Security

Security may be the most critical piece of any trading platform or crypto exchange. In 2018, the number of cryptocurrency related exchange hacks reached over $1 billion in lost customer funds.

Many of these platforms offered at least some level of security, however, hackers are becoming highly advanced and no platform is full proof. This is why the largest sums of cryptocurrencies should always remain stored in a cold storage wallet while any active trading funds remain on an exchange for easy access.

Security features include cryptographically hashed passwords, two factor authentication, address whitelisting, and numerous other failsafes.

Look for platforms that haven’t experienced hacks in the past, and always select from the most popular platforms whenever possible.

Asset Selection

Many platforms only offer Bitcoin trading, while others feature an extensive list of exotic altcoins that are far more speculation than actual use cases.

There are also now a number of trading platforms that offer cryptocurrencies alongside traditional assets such as commodities, forex, stock indices, and more. If traditional markets interest you as well, this type of multi-asset platform may be the ideal choice.

Customer Service

Issues with a cryptocurrency exchange or trading platform are rare, but when problems, questions, or concerns do arise, you want a platform that actually responds in a timely manner, and addresses any issues in a friendly, calm, and helpful capacity.

Trading Tools

As traders become more advanced and cryptocurrency users more comfortable with storing their assets on exchanges, eventually, trading tools tend to outweigh nearly all other aspects of any platform.

If it is a stop trading platform, at the bare minimum market, limit, and stop orders must be present. Margin trading platforms offer additional tools such as long or short potions, and leverage to amplify any return on investment.

Whether or not a platform offers built-in charting software or an API that connects with more advanced tools could be a deal breaker for many.

Liquidity and Trading Volume

Beyond trading tools, the more advanced a trader becomes, the more important a platform’s trading volume and liquidity becomes.

Platforms with very few users may promise low fees or other powerful tools, but without an ample amount of users buying and selling to add liquidity at a high enough volume, larger sized orders can drive up or down prices by cleaning out an order book.

Worse yet, low liquidity causes slippage, or leaves orders left unfilled. ————————————————————————————

Exploring The Advantages Of A Decentralized Crypto Wallet

Crypto currency has brought about a plethora of options for storing and managing digital assets in the realm of digital finance. Among these options, decentralized crypto wallets have gained significant popularity owing to their unique advantages and user-centric features. In this article, we will explore the advantages of using a decentralized crypto wallet and why it is becoming the preferred choice for many crypto enthusiasts.

What is a Decentralized Crypto Wallet?

A decentralized crypto wallet, also known as a non custodial wallet crypto, is different from traditional online crypto wallets in one fundamental aspect: control. Unlike custodial wallets, where a third party holds the user's private keys and, hence, control over their funds, decentralized wallets empower users with complete control over their digital assets. This means that users are solely responsible for safeguarding their private keys and managing their funds securely.

Advantages of a Decentralized Crypto Wallet:

1. Enhanced Security:

One of the primary advantages of decentralized crypto wallets is enhanced security. As they eliminate the need to entrust private keys to a centralized entity, users mitigate the risk of potential hacks or security breaches. With complete control over their private keys, users can rest assured knowing that their funds are protected against unauthorized access.

2. Sovereignty and Control:

Decentralized wallets embody the core ethos of cryptocurrency - decentralization. Users retain sovereignty and complete control over their funds, free from the constraints of centralized intermediaries. This autonomy aligns with the foundational principles of blockchain technology, fostering trust and transparency within the ecosystem.

3. Flexibility and Compatibility:

Many decentralized wallets, such as The Connecter's Multichain Crypto Wallet, offer support for multiple blockchain networks. This versatility enables users to manage a diverse range of digital assets from a single interface, streamlining the user experience and eliminating the need for multiple wallets.

4. Privacy Protection:

Decentralized wallets prioritize user privacy by minimizing the collection of personal information. Unlike centralized exchanges or custodial wallets that may require extensive KYC (Know Your Customer) verification processes, decentralized wallets offer a level of anonymity that appeals to privacy-conscious users.

5. Access Anytime, Anywhere:

With decentralized wallets, users are not bound by geographical limitations or reliance on third-party services. As long as users have access to the internet, they can manage their digital assets anytime, anywhere, without being subject to downtime or service interruptions.

In conclusion, decentralized crypto wallets offer a host of advantages that cater to the evolving needs of cryptocurrency users. From enhanced security and privacy protection to sovereignty and compatibility, these wallets embody the principles of decentralization while providing a user-friendly experience. As the digital asset landscape continues to evolve, decentralized wallets, such as The Connecter's multichain crypto wallet, stand at the forefront of innovation, empowering users with control, security, and flexibility in managing their digital assets.

Crypto exchange Bitrue suffers $23M hack due to hot wallet exploit

"Crypto exchange Bitrue suffers $23M hack due to hot wallet exploit"

[bloobluebloo]

ever since you first mentioned crypto-hacktivist ganondorf i can't think about anything else pleeeaaaaseee talk more about him

OF COURSE I WILL TALK ABOUT MY NERDY JERK GANONDORF- -He is under house arrest, per Zelda's orders. The ankle bracelet he wears is a piece of technology he has yet to figure out.

-Regardless, he is up to nefarious deeds on the internets. -He is heavily invested in cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies, mostly because it allows him to amass and move wealth, and fudge numbers if Zelda comes snooping around. -He has several cryptocurrency mining rigs that he built himself. This is not because he thinks mining with a couple of personal rigs is a particularly efficient way of amassing cryptocurrency; it is mostly a way of throwing Link and Zelda off when they get suspicious about any wealth he has to his name. He just shows them his wallet addresses linked to his rigs. He also doesn't have to pay heating, because his mining rigs keep his home nice and toasty. -What he does have, however, are several of his personal blockchain projects with coins that he creates himself. Again, they do not seem suspicious at first glance as they don't seem to have much worth. -He has built a dedicated following on the dark web with the promise of earning quick money if they help him with pump and dump schemes related to his coins. Of course many are convinced, when they get dumped on, that it is the luck of the draw but our crypto-hacktivist obviously has the jump to pull out his money right before the dump begins so he sells his coin at the highest price. He immediately moves his profits into wallets that cannot be traced back to him directly, and deletes many projects to cover his tracks.

-Cryptocurrency allows him to transfer funds anonymously to people he manages to bribe into getting him sensitive information he can use to access important computer systems. His targets are usually disgruntled workers he spots in various social media circles that he gets buddy buddy with. Sometimes, with the careful deployment of social engineering tactics, he can get the information he needs without spending a single cent. -His expertise is in cryptoware aka he is an expert at creating encryption algorithms that are notoriously difficult or impossible to break. Once he gains access into master data systems he encrypts their information and ransoms the victim for, of course, money in the form of cryptocurrency that will be transferred to a wallet he will immediately get rid of once he distributes the funds. He has a notorious reputation amongst government officials and company executives as they fear him and are unable to track him.

-He is in the process of building a Malware as a Service platform to spread his chaos worldwide while charging people to use his services. -He has attempted to hack into big tech cloud servers to have them mine cryptocurrency but he decides that his pump and dump schemes are a lot more efficient and more in his control. -Of course he has also successfully remotely executed code on other systems. However, he enjoys doing this most to Link and Zelda with stupid scripts like "Making this ad pop up on your screen every 5 minutes with no way to stop it". -He is a mod on both r/cryptocurrency and r/cybersecurity. The other mods hate him because he is incredibly tyrannical but they do not kick him out because he knows too much, both about the topics and about them, while they know little about him. Ruin their reputation online so that they can never mod a subreddit again? Never. -He plays video games. He has never paid for one in his entire life. He owns a gaming server that generates decent revenue.

-Zelda highly suspects that he is the hacker that everyone fears. However she can’t decisively place the blame on him. She consistently grills him on his involvement in cybersecurity discussions. Shifty eyes.

-Blue if he’s doing all this when does he have time to do anything else-HE DOESN’T. He’s on the computer all day. He orders a lot of delivery. He works out for exactly one hour a day to maintain his skills.

I CAN GO ON BUT ITS THE GIST OF IT

Cryptocurrency for Beginners: Essential Insights and Guidance

Cryptocurrency, a digital and decentralized form of money, has transformed the way we think about finance and technology.

For beginners, navigating the world of cryptocurrency can be both exciting and overwhelming.

This article serves as a comprehensive guide, offering beginners insights into the fundamental aspects, benefits, risks, and practical steps to get started in the cryptocurrency realm.

Understanding Cryptocurrency: The Basics

At its core, cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual form of currency that utilizes cryptographic techniques to secure transactions and control the creation of new units.

Unlike traditional currencies issued by governments and central banks, cryptocurrencies operate on decentralized networks, typically based on blockchain technology.

1. How Cryptocurrencies Work

Cryptocurrencies operate on blockchain technology, which is a distributed and immutable ledger that records all transactions.

Each transaction is grouped into a "block," and these blocks are linked together, creating a chain of information.

This decentralized nature ensures transparency, security, and resistance to censorship as Perseus Crypto explains it nicely.

2. Key Cryptocurrency Concepts

Blockchain: A decentralized ledger that records all transactions in a secure and transparent manner.

Wallet: A digital tool that stores your cryptocurrency holdings, enabling you to send, receive, and manage your coins.

Private and Public Keys: Cryptographic keys that grant access to your cryptocurrency. The public key is like an address, while the private key is your password.

Mining: The process of validating transactions and adding them to the blockchain using powerful computers and solving complex mathematical puzzles.

Benefits of Cryptocurrency

1. Financial Inclusion: Cryptocurrencies enable access to financial services for the unbanked and underbanked populations around the world.

2. Decentralization: Cryptocurrencies operate on decentralized networks, reducing the influence of central authorities and intermediaries.

3. Security: Blockchain's cryptographic techniques ensure secure transactions and protection against fraud and hacking.

4. Transparency: Transactions on a blockchain are public and transparent, enhancing accountability.

5. Borderless Transactions: Cryptocurrencies enable fast and low-cost cross-border transactions.

6. Potential for Growth: Some cryptocurrencies have experienced significant price appreciation, offering opportunities for investment growth.

Risks and Considerations

1. Volatility: Cryptocurrency prices can be highly volatile, leading to rapid and unpredictable value changes.

2. Security Concerns: Cryptocurrencies are susceptible to hacking, scams, and phishing attacks. Secure storage is crucial.

3. Regulatory Environment: Regulations for cryptocurrencies vary by jurisdiction and can impact their legality, taxation, and use.

4. Lack of Understanding: The complexity of the technology and market can lead to uninformed decisions.

5. Lack of Regulation: The decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies means there may be no recourse for fraudulent activities or disputes.

Getting Started with Cryptocurrency

1. Education Is Key

Before investing in or using cryptocurrencies, educate yourself about the technology, terminology, and potential risks.

Numerous online resources, courses, and communities provide valuable insights.

2. Choose the Right Cryptocurrency

Research different cryptocurrencies to understand their purposes, use cases, and market trends.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others have distinct features and applications.

3. Select a Reliable Exchange

Choose a reputable cryptocurrency exchange to buy, sell, and trade cryptocurrencies.

Look for factors like security measures, fees, user-friendliness, and available coins.

4. Secure Your Investments

Use strong, unique passwords for your exchange accounts and enable two-factor authentication (2FA).

Consider using hardware wallets for enhanced security.

5. Start Small and Diversify

For beginners, start with a small investment you can afford to lose.

Diversify your investments across different cryptocurrencies to manage risk.

6. Stay Informed

Stay updated with the latest news and trends in the cryptocurrency space.

Follow reputable cryptocurrency news websites, blogs, and social media accounts.

7. Avoid FOMO and Emotional Decisions

Fear of missing out (FOMO) and emotional decisions can lead to impulsive actions.

Stick to your investment strategy and avoid making decisions solely based on short-term price movements.

8. Be Prepared for the Long Term

Cryptocurrency investments are often more successful with a long-term perspective.

Avoid making decisions based on daily market fluctuations.

Conclusion

As you embark on your journey into the world of cryptocurrency, remember that education and caution are your best allies.

Understand the technology, the benefits, and the risks before making any investment decisions.

With the right knowledge and a thoughtful approach, you can navigate the complex and dynamic cryptocurrency landscape, potentially harnessing its benefits and contributing to the evolution of modern finance.
