I'll enter! I assume it has to be bets that are still open, i.e. we can't just make a load of bets and then post the winning ones here :D

Today i cant see my BTC bets in my Portfolio and BTC is not shown in the Currency Menu.
I think its the same error like in end of December, i hope they can fix it shortly.

Hi everyone, thanks for alerting us to this.  Our team is looking into it and should have it fixed asap!

Hi all, we have resolved this bug so everything should now be working normally.  Thanks for your patience, please let us know if you run into other issues!

Thank you for your quick response to this bug and for allowing your team to fix it in such a short time.

My 3 bets for this competition are

Username: _doubleU_

1. Bet: https://futuur.com/q/125865/schalke-04-vs-bayern-munchen
2. Bet: https://futuur.com/q/125867/juventus-vs-bologna
3. Bet: https://futuur.com/q/119531/when-will-the-first-covid-19-vaccine-be-distributed-in-brazil-regardless-of-emergency-of-regular-approval

• https://futuur.com/q/125873/athletico-pr-vs-flamengo

To maximize our win chance, are we allowed to edit our entries and post new bets or post all winning bets after the market resolved ?

I would assume not, as you could then just place many tiny high odds bets and just take your pick of any 3 that win.

But if we can then I'd certainly like to modify mine, as 2 of my 3 bets above have now been resolved and I lost in both :D :D

I think this would not correspond to the meaning of this rule

As per the OP it says that all bets must be closed out (resolved or sold) so having only open ones is not a requirement I'd say.

I love this promo Futuur! Here are some of mine:

Hi all, just to clarify... for this competition, bets do not need to be active when you post.  We may add that rule for future competitions depending on how this one goes :)

That said, please do not edit your post afterwords to add different markets!

Thanks everyone for participating!

I think by the time we post the bet here, that bet must still be open, and closed or sold before 30./31.Janury 2021. otherwise we could choose the best 3 of our bets on January 31st and publish them here. So I understood it and did it, my bets weren't closed until after I posted it here. So my %ROI is now fixed for this competition or i am wrong?

@futuur
Can you this please clarify?

Edit: to late  ;D

Thanks for clarifying, but this is a disadvantage for users like me that posting the bets here before clarifying
Is it allowed to change my bets, after this clarifying, to older ones that i have won? If the rule has been clear beforehand, I had chosen a bet that was still running at the time of posting and 2 bets that i had already won.

Edit:
The 1st and 2nd bets here were won before January 22nd so I don't have any bets other than the above. That was my mistake and I'm sticking with my first submissions (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5311398.msg56172753#msg56172753).

Argh, my impatience was my downfall! I posted my 3 bets when they were still live, and 2 of them lost... doesn't give me a great win percentage :D :D
But yes, it's a great platform and I have plenty of winning BTC bets elsewhere on Futuur, so all is not lost. I'm a more successful gambler than my entry here suggests!

If they allows to edit/post new entries then I would also change one of my bet as I have lost it. Futuur have clarified about that and it's not allowed. But now you violating the rules :D. Your 1st and 2nd bet has been resolved before 22nd January. You have placed those bets earlier than this competition started.


Probably Hhampuz have posted same bet twice by mistake. His second and third bet url is same.

Thank you Futuur!  Congrats to everyone, specially sir Hhampuz! haha!
Is there a next round for this contest? We'd love to have it!

Thanks!  Yes, we are working on adding other cryptocurrencies now.  What would be your top choices for cryptos to add?

Thank you and Congrats to Hhampuz!  8)


Very clearly - Dogecoin  ;D

many in circulation, cheap, currently on everyone's lips and low transaction fees which make cheap Withdrawals possible.

Thank you, futuur, for this wonderful contest. Thank you for the price as well. I'm sure the next one will have more participants.

My top choices would be the most popular altcoins used in gambling. I am seeing DOGE, LTC, ETH, XRP. These are my top 4 crypto choices for predicting on your platform.

Very nice promotion, thank you kindly for hosting Futuur! Can't believe I managed to win even though I messed up my prediction.. Looking forward to the next one :)
