Title: New here with an idea. Must read
Post by: Coinfever on January 28, 2014, 09:58:34 AM
Hello everybody,
I am new to the community and quite new to the coin market. I have an idea (not a scam) to do a raffle using a escrow service to guarantee legitimacy and make sure it works.
Here is the preliminaries on my plan.
A raffle of only 35 numbers ( 1-35) for over a lot of dogecoins worth about BTC2.
Each number would cost about BTC.10 and a donation of BTC.50 to the trustworthy escrow I use.

Can this work? Any recommendations on who should I use as escrow? Any ideas on how to improve this idea.
Regards,
E.

It could work, but I'm not sure how much interest you would get. There's a list of trusted escrowers over on the marketplace, but not sure how many will be interested or deal with Doges though.

Great.
Can you PM your opinions in how to make this work and how to advertise? Would you help me to advertise as well? Do I send the coins to you right after all the 35 numbers has been sold?
Let's make this work.

You'll have to send the coins to the escrower first.

Coinfever you will need to send the coins to the escrow before the 35 numbers had been sold imo

If by "can this work" you mean "as a way to get my ass pounded in federal pound-me-in-the-ass-prison for running an illegal lottery", then yes, it should probably work.

I don't think that it is too much of a risk to give .1 BTC for a 1/35 chance in getting 2BTC eh? And what dies it takes to sell your doge for BTC and stop whining ? If you don't like the idea, don't buy into it. Plain and simple.

Somehow I don't think he'll get the feds after him for racketeering for a few dogs. Would be funny if they did though lol

Gotcha. It won't be a problem. The gentleman that offered to escrow seems like someone very trustworthy and I am waiting for him to contact me and get everything setup to start this ! I will let you guys know ASAP when we are ready to start. I hope to have you as one of the "bidders"! As for anyone opposing for this, I am not asking for your pity bid. And this is not in any way shape or form racketeering!
