Bitcoin Forum

Ok, no need to go crazy with the advertisement I suppose, I'd just like to introduce a new weekly ponzi: www.ponzi247.com (http://www.ponzi247.com)
It is 100% automated, it has 130% return, and it started on the 15th of February at 00:00.

There is a commission of 2%.
Minimum deposit: 0.001 BTC.
Maximum deposit: 0.3 BTC.

A faucet is available with the following odds: 1000 (85%), 2000 (10%), 5000 (5%) satoshi every 60 minutes. The faucet will be funded by 1% of the deposits being made into the ponzi game. Payment from the faucet is made through FaucetBox.


I have seen a lot of hate and anger on these forums, and I was not aware there was such a big community of ponzi players when I started working on the website. I am only asking that you try it out before you judge, or simply do not play if you do not trust it.

You can contact me either through the form available on the website or on this forum.

You didn't need to work on the site much the script you are using is open source...

PONZI = SCAM

The next ponzi scheme
no thanks!

Another ponzi scheme, OMG  ::).

Yawn.. How boring. Direct copy of weekly ponzi. Isn't anyone original anymore?

The script is on gitHub (open source) with some changes: https://github.com/Crypton33/CryptoPonzi   A lot of ponzi sites are using it because it is "free" and easy to use.

Ponzi sites are scams, stop making them you are giving a bad image to bitcoin.

No new features ? What makes your ponzi differ from others ? I think I'll just pass

This site looks exactly like the site that stole my 1 btc. 


My deposit was not listed on the latest run.  I submitted the bitcoin exactly when your timer hit 0.  I would at least ask that you return my investment, if not include me in the current game.  It was not my fault you're timer was nearly 15 seconds out of sync.

It is very possible it is the same group imo

How do we stop these people it's beyond a joke.

nothing new.

No one will send you money, you will lose money and time, and you make the gambling section looks worse.

Please stop doing it

Seems unique, though not started yet => www.CrazyPonzi.com (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=926237.0)

I am not aware of already existing scripts or other such things, I built the back-end of my website on my own (even though, as someone mentioned, I am using an already existing website's interface, which I will change as soon as I can convince myself that there is enough external interest in my website).

I can see most of you are interested in new features, but you also need to be aware that I cannot spend time working on new features from the very start, without knowing if there's any interest beforehand.

I have noticed, on the ponzi website who's interface I have 'stolen', that deposits confirmed within the same block often get paid in a random order. I had my own approach to this problem, and I made it such that deposits get acknowledged instantly, confirmed after 1 blockchain confirmation, and payouts are attempted after the 2nd blockchain confirmation. This ensures that players are paid back in the exact same chronological order in which they deposited, which is quite important for those bulking up at midnight.

I also noticed that someone 'tried out' the system with a 0.0001 deposit, but as I noted on the actual website:
The limits are 0.001 ฿ - 1 ฿  (just lowered the minimum from 0.005). Anything outside these limits is 'skipped'.
Apart from that, I have also set it to 'skip' all deposits made before the very beginning of Week #1.

Please let me know if you would like me to 'unblock' the system so that you can see it work before Week #1 begins, or if you would like me to temporarily reduce the return to 100% and the commission to 0% just to see the system work (although you won't get to see much in that case, as every deposit will just pay itself back within 2 confirmations). Either way, I appreciate your feedback!

The next ponzi scheme
no thanks!

Let's boycott ponzi shits, just playing normal gamble games, such as poker, just register with my signature link, u will find the awesome casino. ;D

well this really explains why there are alot of ponzis that keep spamming day by day, free script for all so that everyone can start their own ponzi like this is giving this boards a bad images

That is crazy, well we to are sick of ponzi sites that have bugs and delayed payments, we launched http://Weekly-BTC.com to fix those issues and code a site that has everything managed on the server including the Bitcoin daemon so no broken APIs or broken ponzi games. If you guys are sick of delays try ours out.

original thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=918471.3500

Yes, it is easy. They have only to buy a small vps and a domain name and start to promote their ponzi schemes. The only way to stop these bullshit is "don't invest".

So what sort of new features are you guys looking forward to ?

I was thinking of something along the lines of having the last 1/2/3 player/s of each week passed on to the next round (which would theoretically help those rushing at midnight from losing their money for depositing 1 second too early). Or maybe I should remove the 'midnight rush' entirely by slightly randomizing the weekly reset time (by a matter of minutes, just so players don't "stalk" the deposit button) ? I'm almost definitely going to add something new to it for Week #2, I only wish I had more constructive feedback to listen to, instead of just hate and anger.

- Lower the commission from 5% to 1%, that's the average house odds of gambling site
- Introduce random lucky numbers, people whose deposit order match the lucky numbers will win 130%, doesnt matter if he is the last one to deposit
- Last person who makes a deposit will win all fund left in the bank

Commission has now been lowered to 1%. Have some cake!

the odds of getting a real deposit to a huge one is rare now. just go do something else besides making more ponzis.

Are you the same guf of weeklyponzi ? your site looks very similar

most of them are under the same operators lol.

Totally BS, we're not stupid, I check your page source, it's 99% a direct copy from weeklyponzi

If you do own weeklyponzi.com .....

My deposit was not listed on the latest run.  I submitted the bitcoin exactly when your timer hit 0.  I would at least ask that you return my investment, if not include me in the current game.  It was not my fault you're timer was nearly 15 seconds out of sync.

pls stop ruining this forum by your ponzis :/ STOP SCAMMING!

Nice a new ponzi scheme game. I wonder who many will be scammed and how long will this game be on existence. This Forum is like swimming with a lot of ponzi sharks.

Don't be silly :)
Copying the "page source" literally only takes a few seconds thanks to modern browsers, but it's only the visual appearance of it. I clearly stated that it's the back-end that I spent my time working on (the functionality, as opposed to the visual aspect, i.e the scripts that notify the database that a new deposit has taken place so that the website can update, the scripts that that take care of the financial part, etc.). These cannot be copy pasted from the page source, as they are written in languages such as PHP, which is compiled by the server hosting the website, and all you end up seeing (either directly or through the source page) is the resulting/remaining HTML. Go ahead, try finding PHP code in any website's source page.

It's quite sad that these forums are reminiscent of gaming forums that I used to frequent about 10 years ago, filled with raging kids (or at least with the same personality) that can't wait to throw their anger at someone. Check your facts and try to spend more time thinking about what you're writing than actually writing it. I'm glad that there's such a big community of gamblers here, but I wish they were slightly more mature.

That being said, I'd also like to announce the latest change for this first week: the maximum deposit has been lowered to 0.3 BTC just so that those that want to try the system out with smaller deposits will not be 'blocked' by larger deposits waiting to be paid out.

The script you are using is open source,you changed it a little bit and maybe i say maybe fixed some bugs if there where any...

What a ponzi games
Everyome always complaining about this ponzi and many ppl still post it

Good morning everyone!

I would like to give an explanation for the slight error that happened last night when the week reset:
I was not around to do the single task that I could not automate due to server limitations (please PM me about it if you have any idea how to use CRON jobs, as SQL events are disabled on the server I use) which is why the entirety of Week #2 deposits have been paid back before starting to pay for Week #3 (this can easily be seen on the History page at Week 2). I understand why you might be worried about it, and fortunately there were less than 0.1 BTC left to be paid for Week #2, but rest assured I will find a permanent solution to this by Week #4.

Enjoy!

Jeez I'm getting sick of these ponzi games.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I have finally automated the entire process and further tweaked several scripts. The "BTC Required Until Next Payout" label will now also mention whether it is out of date due to recent deposits. If it does not, it means it is up to date (takes 2 confirmations to recalculate it after a new deposit is made).

Enjoy!

Good morning everyone.

Just wanted to say that I'm quite disgusted by the focus of the community using these forums. The reactions to every single bitcoin game that shows up are entirely backwards. Websites like btc-flow, multicryptos and every single copy of either of them get shitloads of views and posts and constantly stay on top of the forum, although 90%+ of the ones posting in those threads KNOW that these are obvious scams that will soon bail out, and that seems to be some sort of encouragement for them to keep ranting with no purpose whatsoever except increasing the view and post count, attracting EVEN MORE people to these threads/websites/scams.

In the meanwhile, legit websites that actually keep to their word and haven't scammed anyone even once are entirely ignored and get to silently die in a corner of the forum.

Great job guys, keep encouraging the scammers to come up with new scams, and don't come back whining after you've been scammed too, YOU chose this.

i hope its not too late to invest in your ponzi

Bumping for visibility. Please note that the weekly reset will occur at midnight today.

Looking at last weeks round and see the first few TXes looked to have been before the start time, what is your running policy on early deposits?

I'm using common sense to determine whether the deposit was intended for the old round or the new one. That being said however, I do not encourage doing early deposits.

On a side note, the commission will be updated to 2% starting with Week #4 up from 1%. This goes with the slightly increased interest in the website.

Thanks for the reply, that definitely presents issues with maintaining confidence in the site because you can arbitrarily decide which is, and isn't for the round ,although it may have been sent before the start of the round. Suggest you consider changing that up since you will get yourself into a sticky situation quick, especially if the popularity is increasing.

I know the time crunch is on but interested in hearing your position on this before I throw my hat in the ring as well...

Ready for Week #4 ?

So I gave it a shot anyway, and a player that deposits almost a minute early gets paid and I in turn do not.. If your goal is to build confidence and trust in your game it's a really shaky way to do it...

You seem to think that building confidence is about saying 'fuck you' to those who deposited 1 minute early as if the game is called 'who can deposit at 12:00:00 spot on or otherwise gtfo' which is totally not the case. If that would be the actual point of this game, I would have designed it in a totally different way. Instead, I'm doing my best to keep it true to its original name and purpose: it's a weekly ponzi, nothing more, nothing less. If it's a different type of game that you would like, I am open to feedback and suggestions as I said from my very first post.

bump for visibility.......

btw....how bout u raising the interest gain on every 1 day passed...like 150% in day 2...170 day 3...just like 7dayponz.....this will lessen the case that everybody dont wanna to deposit after 2 days

Actually I wasn't going to suggest a fuck you, rather a refund for early deposits (minus the TX fee), since the alternative is to put more honest players at a disadvantage, which is what you are doing now.

uh no website or anything? srsly? lol...

There is a website and all but apparently the game is frozen.. Tried to force a payout from a previous deposit but nothing is updating...

are u sure this ponzi paying ?

Excuse me but what is all this fuss about ? I haven't been online at the time of the weekly reset yesterday, which is why a slight error occurred: the list of people to be paid did not empty at all, so the money of those who deposited went to the ones from Week #4 first (you can see that all week #4 participants were paid, by mistake, here http://ponzi247.com/history.php?week=4 ). In order to compensate for this, I just moved 0.1 BTC (the total that was misspent on the last 9 transactions of Week #4, which should have been deleted at the end of the week) from my commission to the money available for paying the players, so it's all back to normal again.

And I just spent 3 hours doing all the math and the programming to make sure that everything is back on track and that this will never happen again (by the way, it happened because of the timezone difference between where I live and where the web server is, so the script did not work as intended, but it is fixed now), so please bring evidence before negating any of this. Remember, absolutely everything is on the blockchain.

A faucet is now available on the website! Payment is made through FaucetBOX.

Current odds: 1000 (85%), 2000 (10%), 5000 (5%) satoshi every 60 minutes.

Funding for the faucet will come from 1/3 of my commission from the ponzi game, and will be loaded every week, along with the weekly ponzi reset. For the same reason, my commission will increase from 2% to 3% starting next week (this will include the faucet funds).

There are currently 969000 satoshi available for grabbing!
