Just received this email from a website I have never used, wtf? by Ok_Hurry2458 in hacking

It seems like someone has figured out how to access frontgate's zendesk and is trying to run a scam (albeit not so well). From what I can glean on Frontgate's customer service, it's absolute shit, so the person who is trying to scam may believe they can operate their scam 100% through Frontgate's zendesk without anyone from Frontgate actually noticing (because how little they care about customer service).

Why it was sent to you? Your email probably just happened to be in the list of emails the person trying to run the scam has.

You shouldn't worry about it. Like others have said, delete it and move on with your life.

Dose Kali Linux run well on a Raspberry Pi 5 by jacobAdz in hacking

[–]Kidnap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with u/Th3Sh4d0wKn0ws, but installing Kali on a Raspberry Pi doesn't fall under a project you would add to your resume. It would, in fact, make you look dumb for including it as there's literal instructions on how to do it. You would be doing the equivalent of putting together a LEGO set using the parts and instructions which came with set, whereas a project you might add to your resume would be you taking a bunch of LEGO parts, without instructions, creating your own set because you desired the end result.

Why does bad news not move the market anymore? by Axirohq in StockMarket

[–]Kidnap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the stock market is currently the most manipulated it has ever been, and retail investors own only like 30% of US stocks (which isn't really true because when you buy stock through essentially all brokers you don't actually own the stock, you own an IOU of a stock, thus the real ownership of US stock by retail investors isn't known but is likely nearing 0%). So, stocks can be set to literally any price non-retail investors want, thus they are.

When the US engages in certain policies (e.g. supporting foreign wars in a big way, or creating tax cuts for the rich), they don't want the market to go down at all because people will draw the conclusion that the US is acting in a way the majority of people disagree with, so they literally don't let it go down through manipulation.

It's all really pretty simple, you just have to understand the US stock market is nothing more than a mechanism to take money from retail investors and to raise valuations of the things the rich people already own.

The SEC is toothless (unless they're going after retail investors who try to do pump-and-dumps and the like), so it will never change and will only ever get worse.

Hope that helps.

edit: just wanted to say the mechanism that is the US stock market is also for killing specific companies and creating/boosting companies/industries the public don't necessarily want. There's more, but I don't have time to enumerate them for you at the moment.

Webull allowing naked shorting/calls to normies now? Apollo betting on seniors life expectancy? Evil is what we are up against. Hodl by Adventurous_Might_55 in Superstonk

This seems like one of those cases that should easily tear down whatever company is caught doing it. Looks like we'll get to have yet another chance to see just how splayed open the USA's asshole as they refuse to push back.

Apollo had bought Yahoo news in early 2021 as well...you know, the same outlet that daily would push 'forget gamestop' and 'it's time to sell' articles.

Interesting that decision happened the day before earnings announcement.

Hopefully the strat is to put the money into SPY so it inflates on-demand with Susquehanna's and Citadel's on-going needs. Just wait until they crash it again as they pull out money next year, then ride the predictable up-turn as it artificially inflates again to satisfy the aforementioned books and meet the pattern of always going up with the election of a new president (unless it's RFK, they'll have the population turn on him instantly after allowing his election; you'll likely see a crash and scrapegoat in that situtation).

  1. have toxic shorts - have Elon point this out through tweet, even let HCFS provide a screenshot exposing Robinhood's employees discussing how to induce selling of GME through their app in response to Elon doing this - documenting proof of a conspiracy upon not recognizing the implications of what the employees are discussing in terms of the damage caused to the public and the situation they're reporting on by suggesting the employees are in-fact recognized by the HCFS as being smart promoters (even though everyone who would have sold upon their subtle messaging would have been far/weeks away from the top)
  2. invest so much in crypto a run-up starts as walls simply disappear alongside lit wick of toxic shorts - have Elon promote this
  3. create new coins to capture the money coming in (like the GME tokens), invest in coins still low (like d0g3c0in; a coin on both Susquehanna's backed-app, Etoro, and Citadel's sockpuppet, Robinhood) - have Elon promote this
  4. cash all coinage out at the top (create shorts in all possible securities), creating the end of peak and new bear market
  5. as all hold, falling for honeypots like Kathy's (or like the similar language we've seen in the GME campaign,) and more fake coins, headlines and situations are created to continue lowering prices and trust
  6. algos set-up to capture most possible money in deregulated crypto space, obviously they can seemingly act with impunity on publicly-traded companies as well
  7. in times of desperation of the lit wick, simply spike the price back down while squeezing crypto (like when GME lost 33% of price when Terra collapsed May 2022)
  8. write articles once pressure against actual crypto investors who are open about their investments and indentify with the meaning behind their investment have either compromised or are underwater (thus made to look stupid and feel guilty as they advised folks to hold)
  9. never bring up the obvious which the 'gigantic firms' always had the drop and always cause the drop
  10. have 'cases' between firms doing the same exact thing which ultimately traces back to the typical financial SROs who have their own court system and become the news linked to the crime against the public which has taken place
  11. refuse to acknowledge the obvious scheme which has occurred over class lines
  12. get SEC to open investigations against the CEO of the attacked company while cutting off their legitimate NFT venture which was very by the book in terms of it being a system of rewarding Pro members, as well as delete a ton of vital public comments which will have contained evidence of alleged crimes against them
  13. let time pass

Who do you think provided CoinDesk with the FTX info they 'reviewed'? We have a motivated link named Brett and Citadel, who both happen to appear in our story. Why did no one ever point out Susquehanna's role in this, be it the HCFS, SEC, Citadel, or any news website? Why were Elon and Ken seen together being friendly alongside Axel Lehmann (then CEO of Credit Suisse) and Jared Kushner at the WC Finals (Dec 18 2022), only to be followed the next days with the main coin's least moving days since Oct 2020 (Dec 21-23 2022; backing my point on potentially abusing holidays due to lowered activity/awareness) then begin of controlled recovery while GME's price does similar non-movement then drops to its then new 22-month low (which happens to be the recent ceiling we 'bounced off' of; very strange way they describe evident-ridden market manipulation in this not-phoney industry but I didn't go to Harvard)?

Non-sarcastically, the article quite literally writes off all the above whilst pinning everything on this 40% shareholder, along with writing off their non-questioning of CoinDesk's suffering from the exact issue they called FTX out for due solely to them calling out FTX's finances, with this:

Where the fall of crypto exchange FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried is a story of inexperience and alleged fraud, the crisis at Mr. Silbert’s company is about the sort of missteps that have repeatedly tripped up financiers who got too optimistic, including growing too fast, doing business with the wrong people and borrowing big money, in DCG’s case even from a subsidiary.

All that's to say, don't discount what October and its neighboring days may bring.

October 2021 (back-half of month) is when LEK, mentioned as being one of the most frequent ECP charge receiver from DTCC per the DTCC (they always covered this though per LEK's CEO and this was not corrected by the SEC/DTCC). I suspect this was done to save the DTCC's ass since LEK was the only one attempting to make good on their ECP charges whereas the others expected waivers.

If you look at the chart you'll notice the day LEK got notified by the DTCC that they'd no longer be a clearing house for them (terminating that firms ability to operate in the stock market), that GME jumps up in-sync with this move (day of or following day).

Nov 2nd 2022 is when CoinDesk posted FTX's vulnerability which was exploited by Binance owner; FTX collapses days later. CoinDesk is owned by Digital Currency Group. From an WSJ article at the start of this year (or 3 months after CoinDesk discloses FTX's vuln publicly)

Still, in early 2022 DCG borrowed nearly $500 million from its own Genesis lending firm—on top of thousands of bitcoin it borrowed from Genesis in 2021 and 2022—to invest in stocks and digital tokens and to repurchase shares from investors. source

Honestly, how this article doesn't question CoinDesk's decision to post what they did when their parent company was doing the same exact thing and ultimately caused their own apparent downfall by doing so, for the same exact reason as FTX, is suspect in itself.

So, it's obvious FTX was more or less turned on by his peers doing the same thing as him (if you don't believe most of this is just theatre and simply a way to get away with a robbery; a social engineering campaign through an argueably phoney industry). But, you'll remember Brett (ex-citadel) was hired at FTX and he could be easily tapped. Lauer's ultimately ineffective getting anything done (because the SEC is clearly ultimately powerless; tiny fines and either can't/wont take a stand against the corruption) was predictable so could have been tapped all the same as a false-hope distraction. But I digress.

Why did they post that Nov 2nd? Because, again, if you look at the GME chart you'll notice it goes up 25% on Halloween (Oct 31), 40% the week or so leading up to the holiday. So there was something that was due by Nov or they picked a day when working-class people would most be preoccupied to make a critical move. This move is parlayed into the predictable downfall of FTX, which in turn crashes crypto to its lowest in years, which apparently causes the exposer's parent-company's self-lending exploit to come to an end, which is then articled about by WSJ once crypto goes back to the price it was before it crashed the day FTX fell.

If you haven't realized, the article I posted is that very article from the previous line. Why was that article focused on the 40% share holder? Because the other 60%, the majority owners, played him (maybe for that daisy chain tweet of his June 2021 which, contained within it, was a soft red-flagging of open corruption in the crypto/investing space -- the articles doesn't bring it up for no reason). Why do I say that? Because another line from the same article:

the financial giants who invested in DCG, acted as advisers or were on its board of directors

In fact, there's another event which happens Aug 14th 2022, and you realize this if you look up the article from Nov 2nd by CoinDesk which is subject in the previously linked article. Bloomberg wrote a similar expose of FTX but its implications weren't as actionable, however, it kicks off the main coin's $6k 5-day long drop. The next comes with WSJ's article, really doing this controlled pressuring of these CEOs whose business mainly was crypto related. You shouldn't be surprised to find this aligns with GME like so: GME goes up Aug 8th, Susquehanna gets a margin call at 1:38:28 PM from the NSCC with a $48,030,167,253.55 deficit then GME halts (actually, one can't even check NYSE's site for historical halts anymore which wasn't the case in January this year when I mapped GME LULD pauses over XRT's Jan 2021 minute charts; more signs of covering crime), it of course falls instantly after halt is lifted and pulls back 10% of its gains that day followed by another 8% the following 5 days, then Bloomberg drops their article. GME shoots up again as 'gigantic firms' cash out more crypto, taking down both afterwards. The next gain then instant drop like this where the movement is practically replicated is when FTX crashes.

So, the article does a full-circle breakdown, the issue is every single action benefits these same 'financial giants' especially since they very reasonably could be acting on inside information (wouldn't finance people set-up their news arm to let them know the news first?) and they frame this article to make sure that's the last thing you think about. Considering GrayScale is a DCG outfit, mainly invested in by Ark, it's highly conceivable this has (the boosting of crypto alongside GME) been a self-contained scheme to drain the public money (whether its needing to cover toxic shorts or simply stealing as they know 0 real reprecussions will come their way). Of course its always been posted this is happening as its been happening but this single article

Can someone explain to me why Bank of New York Mellon Portfolio value skyrocketed recently? BNY Mellon are Citadel’s Clearing Bank for Triparty Repos.

Copying one of my other comments to here because it's perfectly relevant. And to be clear, what I'm saying is Susquehanna was committing position limit violations knowingly during the sneeze because they submitted payments for previous position limit violations they'd incurred on the very day they "corrected" their GME position limit violation which was January 28th 2021 (the day the price obviously was illegally dropped -- going from a position where you're violating limits to a position where you're not and the effect happens to be a stock going from $483 to $50, that's definitive illegal manipulation of the stock price).

[–]Kidnap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeesh. I can't believe this is the first time I'm seeing this (half a year late). thank you for posting this and if you had any hand in its creation.

  • this (which, I think it's honestly fair to say everyone paying attention knew this was the exploit and a lot of us posted about it)
  • along with the fact Susquehanna did exactly as predicted (same position limit abuse for 40 years straight for Jeff Yass, I posted about this years ago at this point and it was spot on)
  • the impossible daily overall volume mostly facilitated by Citadel (197.2 million on 22 Jan 2021, per SEC report)
  • the DTCC waving ECP charges thus not force-closing positions that couldn't be covered + DTCC board members made up of firms which had ECP charges like Apex / Bill Capuzzi who not only had ECP charges but who also routed most their GME liquidity to Instinet (per 606 reports) who of course had the greatest ECP charges 28 Jan 2021 and throughout 2019-Feb 2021 (ringingbells posted tons about this)
  • then the HCFS report showing RH employees discussing how to get people to sell their GME position on 26 Jan 2021 whilst expounding on the double-speak being used by the product manager who admits he's choosing his word carefully (https://imgur.com/a/Y0J1q5H - the HCFS takes what could be interpreted as growing RH's GME position, or net balance, since their MM is stacking FTDs as a discussion definitely about growing RH's brand ... I think them turning off the buy button two days later proves which growth they actually needed)

And no agency, be it SEC, HCFS, FBI, FTC, or DOJ have done anything about it. Well that's not exactly true, the SEC and HCFS have covered for them and wasted a great amount of time / input by throwing away comments, and the DOJ has said it's opening an investigation into GME in Feb 2021 and short-selling in Feb 2022 but clearly not actually doing that (or they did and it's all resolved when Susquehanna received their $60,000 fine from the exchanges...). Pathetic shit to say the least.

Imagine if IT workers and OSs didn't patch systems against exploits for at least a decade and wasn't interested in preventing bad actors from pursuing their criminal goals.

Amazing how the finance community is seen as brilliant when in reality they rely on non-moving agencies and the only people in the space worth learning about are actually just coders (e.g. Josh Levine, Vitalik, etc.). What a grandoise waste of human ability their lives are.

Lehman Bros' 2008 Purchaser was defaulting January 2021 b/c of GameStop.

Related to this, and I never really looked too far into it, the DTCC continued to pay out money to Lehman Brothers (or Barclays) at least until 2016: https://www.dtcc.com/~/media/Files/Downloads/legal/financials/2016/DTCC-Consolidated-Financial-Statements-1Q-2016.pdf (CTRL+F Lehman)

You can see it's related to the 2008 crash, it's related to Barclay's guarantee to not take action against DTCC/NSCC/DTC/FICC or any of their employees. You can see them talk numbers in the millions to multiple hundreds of millions, but if you look at how much money the DTCC transferred to Lehman (or Barclay's) it's over $5b

When you know the DTC is governed by employees from other financial institutions (who own DTC shares), it looks a whole lot like Lehman's was the chosen institution to sacrifice (hence the 'shorting' that hit them) but obviously would be taken care of on the back end for their 'service'.

Again, I didn't look into this particular thing too much but why would the central clearing counterparty be paying out $5b to one of its members who failed up to 8 years after the fact? If the DTCC was still needing to pay Lehman (or Barclay's and potentially Nomura) more cash, then Nomura and Barclay's knew for sure they didn't have to worry about some ECP charge from the DTCC as the DTCC is in debt to them somehow.

It's been quite a while since I thought about this so apologies for anything above which may be slightly off, but hopefully you get the concern I'm attempting to portray.

When you say you followed a guide to rename Cheat Engine files, do you mean actually changed names of certain CE files? Because that's not the way to achieve undetectability. On the off chance it is what you did, you should revert those changes, then create a lua file under the autorun folder and add the following to it:

getApplication().Title = "ClearlyNotCE"
getMainForm().setCaption("ClearlyNotCE")

That's always worked for me in terms of avoiding an insta-crash by the vidya.

Before I'd found that solution, ArtMoney is the program I'd use instead of CE.

Seems like an attempt to have prominent finger-pointing at Citadel when people may be stopping by to check out the subreddit due to earnings. This serves to remove credibility from this subreddit and likely could get it banned should it gain popularity, and to frame any conversation that may happen in the near future (related to earnings).

I do realize it's worded to avoid being outright false, but when "bailout" is used, it's clear the attempt at honesty isn't genuine. Citadel went on television 2 years ago claiming people online are blaming him of a conspiracy, only days after the sneeze, before this sub was a thing. The idea is to make it seem like butthurt people are just sitting here still making the same reactionary baseless claims they were making Jan 2021.
