Title: One whole BTC till the end of 2014. CHANGE GIVEAWAY! |CANCELLED|
Post by: sir.humus on December 16, 2014, 08:15:10 AM
Hi everyone!
So, my goal for this year was to get my first whole BTC.
As for now I only have about 66% of that, so here is what I'm going to do:

1. My current balance is: 0.6480651BTC
2. My sig campaign is going to pay me 0.07BTC in about a week. Thanks BitDice.me (https://www.bitdice.me/)!
3. I have 4.6 Clams that I'll try to sell for at least 0.03BTC
4. I have some mBTC in dice sites and etc. that I'm going to withdrawl.
5. I'm trying to win some more in any giveaway in this forum.
But I'll still be missing about 0.2BTC, and here is where your part begin:
6. I'm asking for your tip.

But why should you tip me?
- For every mBTC you'll send me you'll get 1 ticket to a draw I'll make on 1.1.2015
The winning ticket will win all the balance that I'll have above 1BTC (minus tx fee) on 31.12.2014 23:59:59.
It could be very little, but it might be a lot!

What will happend if I won't get to a whole BTC by the end of the year?
- I really hope I will, but if not the winning ticket will get the amount that will be missing to 1BTC.
for example: right now it's 0.3519349BTC!

To participate just send any amount to:
17R3urY2wPb62DWagnrsioEiweNkYA8KYS
and post a link to the blockchain tx.
That's it!

P.s.
In the two weeks that left I'll think of a provably fair way to make the draw,
your suggestions are very welcome.

As I wrote, if I'm not gonna make it to one bitcoin by the end of the year I'm gonna give away the amount I'll miss till one bitcoin.

You can look at this like that:
The giveaway prize is the absolute value of (1BTC-my balance).
So for now, since I have less then 1BTC, the prize is about 0.352BTC,
and if I'll have, let's say, 1.234BTC by the and of the year, the prize will be 0.234BTC.

what if in the end of the year your balance is 1.00001 and about 20 people give you a tip so it means it will be a loss for all?  ???

There is no more real then this.

Yes, there is a chance that the prize will be very little, but it also can be very high.
if you'll be the only one that send 1mBTC you'll win 0.35BTC

are you going to put it in an escrow?

I'm not gonna use escrow, becasue the goal is to have 1BTC in my wallet.
but I'm willing to consider using a "3rd party" address that will collect the money people send until the end of the year.
can you suggest someone?

I believe they are referring to escrow the difference between where you are now and 1btc (0.3519349BTC) so if you don't make the 1btc there is something that can be paid to the winner if you go, damn this didn't work and run away. As long as you settle at the end, you would get the coin back after this is over, allowing you your 1 bitcoin goal. (BTC1.00000000)

It's quite risky though, if 30 potential ppl are willing to "buy" one ticket you will still need 0.17 BTC to meet the criteria.

It's very easy to cheat in this. For ex:

Say at the end you're short 0.2 BTC in THIS address. So to save your 0.2 BTC giving-away you send 0.201 BTC to yourself from your OTHER address.

And the balance is now : 1.001 BTC and you keep the 1 BTC and share the generous amount, which is 0.001.

See what I mean?
