Title: Zero to $10,000 Sports Betting Challenge
Post by: LendingTree on April 24, 2014, 11:13:04 AM
We have decided to create a thread for users to follow, where we will start with a negligible amount of btc (we will start with the amount of btc we received mining with 200 GH/s in 12 hours), and turn it into much more.  To do this, we will be using the sportbook Nitrogen.

If you like sports, feel free to follow our plays each day, track our progress with us, and hopefully make some btc.  If you enjoy this thread, and want to support the challenge, all we ask is to use us your referral on Nitrogen.  PM us for the referral link.

Picks will be posted before any game starts, so you may bet along with us if you like.  This is a fun challenge, just to see if it is possible to turn a very small amount of btc into $10,000.  We are not professional sports cappers.  Any bets you place along with us are at your own risk.

Should be a fun journey!




  • Beginning Amount of BTC for Challenge: .00672890 
  • Current Amount of BTC:

Its a fun challenge, it will definitely take over a year unless bitcoin rises to 10,000 each.  

I remembered Chris Ferguson's challenge on Full Tilt Poker back in the mayday of online poker in the USA, where he started with 0.00, and ran it up to 10,000 to show it can be done using proper management.  

The link to his original challenge is here:

Good luck with this challenge. What if you lose the sum that you made with 200 GH/s mining in 12 hours? You'll mine again and start over? The starting sum seems really small that should take a while :D

I have more btc than that, I am starting really small on purpose.  Its just a fun challenge for me, I figure most people could scrap together this much btc pretty easily, I want to see how high I can make it, and hopefully others will try to, maybe even using me as a referral.
