I'm new here and just wanted to share my appreciation for this forum. I especially like the fact that discretion and prudence seem to be valued so highly. From what I can tell it's a place for people who are sensible and (mostly) have their heads screwed on straight. Very happy to have found a place with this type of community.

I'd also like to ask a question, which I hope is okay here (if not, I'd appreciate learning where to post something like this going forward). I've used the forum's search function but it hasn't turned up what I'm looking for. Do any active users regularly lab test products from vendors? I don't mean just reagent testing, which is easy and inexpensive enough for me to do. Rather, I'm wondering if anyone regularly has product sent out for more extensive laboratory analysis. While I trust the more accredited vendors on here, I'm a cautious person by nature and would appreciate that extra bit of assurance. I've thought of doing it myself, but the expense would make it difficult for me to do regularly, so I wanted to see if any other users are already doing this. Thanks!

 
@mdg90  Hi, and welcome to the forum!  Glad you found us.  As to your question, sadly it's so expensive that it's pretty rare that people get things tested.  I wish we had a free place in the US like folks do in Canada and other countries.  100-150 is a lot for most people.  And sadly vendors aren't doing it either.  If you have other questions feel free to ask in the appropriate place or you can always PM me directly.  Take care and welcome aboard!

 
@DoomKitty wow, nevermind I never knew this existed, incredible resource.

@mdg90 I was going to run samples in a lab I was working in once but after speaking to my lab manager, who thankfully was supportive of such questions, consulted with me and concluded that a reagent test would be sufficient. maybe the same would be true for you?

 
@gpbe22 Thank you for the insight! I'll just stick to reagent tests for peace of mind then.

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @iamgroot what kind of slowdowns are you seeing so far? multiple days for acceptance scans?
  2. iamgroot @ iamgroot: Shipping is slow and its gonna be slower as we move towards Christmas. Plan accordingly.
  3. Bizz @ Bizz: @xenxra i was hoping with your expertise you could fiill the details in thank you! I’m getting into crypto right now and learning and I’m starting to be able to save consistent amount of money was legitimate employment and I’m not sure where to put it other than bitcoin and XR in Ethereum Would you mind DM me a suggestion I can learn on my own, but I would like a suggestion from an expert
  4. xenxra @ xenxra: @Bizz fed board member waller said yesterday he doesn't see a good case for rolling out a cbdc
  5. Bizz @ Bizz: Losing faith….
  6. Bizz @ Bizz: @DerailedFisherman i believe it’s the us central bank digital currency connected to fed now.
  7. PHXINC @ PHXINC: Please do not even mention PHX on this shoutbox. We appreciate it loves. Unless we needa ran through. But that aint gonna happen. Im so happy with our current DBG base. Goodbye scammers. Go play chutes and ladders w your old vendors. ;) Man i got a feeling our thread is about to blow soon. Well even more so...lets just wait and see. And got some arrivals that will be fun i think. ;)

  9. xenxra @ xenxra: a huge chunk of the cost i pay with these firms is to offset the costs of their compliancy tools and they're also in a position to draft out a significantly more comprehensive report that i could use during the litigation process when i inevitably end up having to take this to court.
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @knofflebon @uncharted i mean you have to consider the landscape these days compared to ten years ago. they send these coins through bridges, dexes, mixers, swappers - all sorts of crap. part of the reason i think i have a chance is bc these people apparently aren't experienced enough to know they could have just withdrawn all my funds straight to a DEX for XMR and they'd be ghosts but they're wallet hopping the BTC to ETH/USDT.
  11. DerailedFisherman @ DerailedFisherman: @Bizz what is USBC
  12. uncharted @ uncharted: @xenxra $200 an hour to "analize the blockchain" is outrageous. I don't know how they got you wether just basic phishing, spearphishing, javascript drive by, or as I said threres many ways. They got me one time years ago and since then it's been straight linux with expecerything compartmentalized in VM's. QUBES would be the best thogh in terms of security
  13. Bizz @ Bizz: Anyone thoughts on USBC being released in two days?
  14. K @ knofflebon: @xenxra damn, you would hope if they charge that much that they wouldn't charge you unless they're successful. That sucks man.
  15. Bizz @ Bizz: @xenxra just wrote something on PHX page that I think applies to your situation as well. I wish I could help, although Lyft has offered my cybersecurity school and in 14 weeks I’ll join the fight lol!
  16. A @ AnnaSofia: Man that sucks sorry @xenra it’s a crazy world with all that stuff. That’s horrible. No chump change either. And to think I was freaking out thinking I lost $350 the other day.
  17. Bizz @ Bizz: @xenxra holy shit dude, I’m sorry to hear that. Makes anything I’m worried about child’s play.
  18. xenxra @ xenxra: @AnnaSofia not related, scammer claiming my coinbase account was compromised engineered me and took 100k
  19. A @ AnnaSofia: @xenra is this something h that happened to you while attempting to place magazine orders or not related?
  20. S @ SoopaFireGuy8: Is there anyone offering samples atm?
