Do we know if the jackpot will have an affect on the dividends or not? I mean if 20k is already set aside and was taken from each bet by a small sum and not put on dividends than it means that is 20k that could have been distributed to dividends but did not in order to create jackpot which I am sure many would agree is a good marketing strategy but doing something like that without the approval of shareholders sounds a bit centralized, maybe it should have been "voted" somehow with bet tokens to see if the bet owners want that money on their pocket or want that to be a marketing budget.

If it hasn't been collected so far and will be given after the jackpot hit and affect the dividends that is even worse and would probably create problems in ownership but I doubt that is the case, eosbet is ran much better than that.

If this thread a promo, just make sure site that you promoted really trustable. Because if both of it is a good site they will famous in short time. And a lot of respond in here is said rare to hear site that you promoted.
That’s exactly what I think. There’s nothing bad with promoting on a thread but at least it should be done properly. I have no issues with the sites been not been famous because I am aware there are some   unpopular but yet trusted sites but my only challenge is the reviews on the sites he posted are not encouraging.

There are so many sites that offer instant withdrawal and it’s absurd that the poster chose to promote the ones with negative reviews. I actually never knew nothing about the sites until I saw it here, had to do a quick research on them.
Yes that’s true; anyone can promote a thread but be at least sure that the sites are trustworthy. It’s not how long a site exists that determines how reputable it will be, there can be new sites with good reviews. But, I guess the OP is new to gambling and was probably amazed to see the sites that gave him instant withdrawal because he commented on the post that he mentioned the websites based on his experience.

For me, one site that I am very sure that is reliable and yet offers instant transfer is Cloud bet, its currently my favorite gambling platform, with lots of games and I like how they offer me 50 free spins on every of my first deposit.
103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you bet on an insect fight? on: May 03, 2019, 03:22:04 PM
I think it depends on how much is at stake. But whatever fight it is, be it an insect or spider, still, I wouldn't buy this. I think there are more fun and exciting games to bet on aside from this battle. It's just, I don't think I'd enjoy watching those insects fight. They're so tiny that I wouldn't be able to tell that much that they are injured, or what caused their loss aside from death. They'll only last for a few rounds, one to two maybe. I'm spending my money anyway and I am not sure if I would win a bet or not but I will still prefer to gamble on a game I have actually enjoyed watching and that most people could relate.
Personally, I don’t care what amount of money is involved. If it has anything to do with animal games then count me out. I know that I am desperate to make money   but then I love something I can as well enjoy. I can be very selective when it comes to games and I don’t play any kind of game.

I sincerely see it as a disgust-full game and I have never imagined myself in the midst of its players let alone playing it myself. For now I don’t think there is any game like online gambling, you get to see varieties of games in different casino sites, and I wonder if anyone in this generation would participate in such games.
104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO's Have Been Getting EXPOSED! Finally... on: May 03, 2019, 09:47:34 AM
That's how you respond for some ICO when you benefited on them from bounty campaign? Of course not all are total garbage, some are still decent projects and you just need to research which is which. Im sorry but this post of youres showing that you dont know a dime of a potential ICO. Yes there are many scams, but if you screen those ICO you will find aome of them are worth investing. Check out ATOM? It is indeed an ICO, without any IEO connections, see where are they now? So you still tell that all ICOs are scam? Still a newbie always a newbie!
Majority of the ones that has ended up becoming shitcoins or garbage as we call them and also now see as scam didn’t intend packing their package and abandoning their project, some of us still contributed to why they parked up, we have many people that have sound ideas but not great fighter.

Instead of us investing with them and leaving them to fully develop before we cash out our profits, we dump them shortly after they enter exchange by selling off and then we come here to accuse them of being scam, the only people I see as scam are the ones disappearing immediately after raising money for the ICO.
105  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 6 Reasons why IEO is better than ICO on: May 03, 2019, 09:15:04 AM
We don't even need many reasons as to why IEO is better than ICO, for the fact that IEO is controlled by popular exchanges is a plus for investors because this exchanges have built reputation for themselves and will not want to spoil it for some few amount of dollars, so they will make sure to checkmate every project before approving them for IEO, and for the fact that it's done on exchanges, this just means that it is also secured and to some extent free from scammers.
It is not a plus to many people, sometimes leaving the IEO in the hands of these top exchanges could be dangerous, do you think any exchange will go that far to create IEO platform just because they have the interest people at heart? They do so to in other to make more money, using people’s weakness.

They have seen the week point of many potential investors now and fear of getting scammed if they get involved, and when thy built on that, the people they said they are protecting cannot even get involved other than whales, because only a whale would have such money to gather lots of the tokens at once without given little chance to the one that are not much financially buoyant to participate.
106  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin Reach $100,000? on: May 03, 2019, 08:45:42 AM
Bitcoin the king of the crypto market is now in the longest bear market in bitcoin history. Many people now believe that Bitcoin will never able to reach its all-time high ($20.000).
On the other hand, many traders and analysts predicate that Bitcoin will surpass the $100,000 milestone in the net bull run.
Please share your views what are the key factors of the next bull run and will fuel the price above $100,000.

I am a believer of Bitcoin and believes that in the next 5 years Bitcoin will be accepted by most of the big firms.
We are all too in a haste to make some drastic predictions for Bitcoin without really considering the factors that will make this happening.  For bitcoin to really reach that price of $100,000 we really need mass adoption, we need people from diverse background to start using Bitcoin as a utility token. I.E payment of goods and services, payment of salaries and many more.

As companies’ use BTC for this, the beneficiaries will gradually be getting use to the system till it becomes massively adopted and every adoption stage will have its price value, so our target now is to seek for BTC adoption and then that value will be nothing for BTC to achieve in future.
107  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't Fomo , 3800$ incoming ? on: May 03, 2019, 08:15:06 AM
If tether fails then we cut easily see a $3.800 bitcoin, but I think most people will jump into bitcoins and dumping their altcoins in that event. Bitcoins is looking strong again, so I think we will slowly go up in the next few weeks.
From the second quarter of the year the market seems much more progressive than the first quarter of the year. The third quarter of the year will provide with the best profit in the market with the price reaching around $8000, and by now there is no need of panic about the mentioned $3800. No need to fear about missing out the low buy or high selling, just analyze and make your own decision.
I have also heard from some great analyst of the possibility of bitcoin falling back a little to $3800 before going on bull run, but I have tried to do my analysis too and I have not really see anything factor that could lead to dump of bitcoin for it to reach that value.

We should not just be speculating, we need to think it through too, if they say that the price will dump again to that low, are they expecting people to react to news or factor that will trigger that ? I don’t think the price will be easy to drop again, because a lot of holders are keeping bitcoin value they have now in their portfolio for the future increase.
108  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is going steadily up, don't you think? on: May 03, 2019, 07:01:09 AM
I see like that too. For me it is better because with steadily, bitcoin price not really extreme to move and it will be good for bitcoin itself. So pumped and dumped not always happen and it can make community will believe and make it stronger.
I am glad that we are all beginning to see bitcoin for what it is, bitcoin has been in its uptrend since 2015, we cannot compare the achievement of Bitcoin now in value to that of 2015, if we could look back, then we will totally believe in the future of Bitcoin.

It is better bitcoin continues on this part of its steady and slow increase, this is better to guide against any form of euphoria that is always resulting to dumping of the coin, sharp increase are what people are now getting use to that is making bitcoin look too slow in progress to them, but good thing about humans, they can easily adjust and adapt, so we have to adapt to this slow and steady increase in price of BTC.
109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why binance chain?? on: May 02, 2019, 05:49:56 PM
So many projects now leaving the ethereum network for binance chain,,...

 I fear soon binance may just be a crypto monopoly
while CZ will be the one to point out project that will succed and project that will die out..

Do we really needs this??
If we talk about monopoly, I think ethereum is even the one monopolizing it, they would have also left it for bitcoin alone, ethereum came, built on BTC weakness to make blockchain better to operate, so I don’t think Binance should be picked on for doing so, they have simply seen the weak point of ethereum too that they need to develop on.

There is need for Binance chain, because ethereum has not completely resolve the issue of their slow transaction, I don’t know why they have been unable to resolve this but I believe it will be due to the large user database and number of transactions going through them, so they need more hands and Binance has chosen to be the helping hand.
110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Outside risk: similarities between gambling and trading? on: May 02, 2019, 04:31:33 PM
Both are risky and I admit that during those times that I gamble and I trade, I felt the same emotions. But in terms of using strategies, they are different. In gambling, I only rely on pure luck. But in trading, I used some technical analysis. Which only means, we have basis for our wins.
You are such a strong man, how where you coping with both trading and gambling, they are both very risky jobs and I can only imagine how much you have lost and how emotional you must have been because both games are risky.

I have only been trading and I know what I have been through analyzing the market and the changes that happens overnight unpredictably. It is always a nightmare. Gambling is based on luck actually and it’s good for those who have good luck for gambling, I still prefer trading because you can at least check past record, analyze, even though it’s still risky but it is at least still safer than gambling.
111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: May 02, 2019, 03:33:28 PM
that's gambling, when we lose and we force play to get our money back, it is the lose streak that we can get. things that have often happened, I've even experienced.
We do makes loses in gambling but that do not mean people are not making profits.  I think the number of people that makes lose are higher than those that makes profits and that is why we are more focusing on losing than profits.
Yes, there are still a lot of people that make much profit in gambling and on the contrary the number of people that make it might even be higher than those loosing. I think most people who make money from gambling never come out to say it, either some are ashamed to admit it or they just don’t want to expose too many people to the game because I know about 2 people that gambled their way out of poverty this year. One of the guys is my good friend.

Money is not easy to get, that is the reason we see many people who loose coming out to complain that gambling is not good, because it really hurts to lose money.

I think there are other ways as well to become a whale, such as hitting a big number on primedice which is the topic here, a whale could be made in many shape or form but I agree that it doesn't mean they know what they are doing. Of course there are whales who are really smart and totally deserve to be whale because they literally a self made whale but there could be lucky whales as well where they just happened to hit off big thanks to something, maybe a big dice roll, maybe early investment that they forgot and just remembered, there are many things they could potentially be whales for and that s why I am saying a whale could be anything, they could be smart or they could have no idea, it just depends on how they got to be a whale and not if they are whale or not.
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: May 02, 2019, 01:45:00 PM
It is really not even remotely fair that one team has Messi and the other doesn't. You may have seen the highlights and you may have seen the goal but what he was doing last night was otherworldy in every single time he got the ball.

When any other player in the pitch got the ball their first reaction is to not lose the ball and they try to either pass or if they are open run to wide open side like really working hard to not lose the ball, when Messi got the ball he ran at people and those people literally ran back instead of running at him because they knew if they run at him he will just go pass them with a trick and he was capable of that. He got the ball many times and each time it was a "how does he do this" and that really shocked me because I was expecting him to be less effective with age but he is still amazing.
114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much capital I need to be the House on: May 02, 2019, 08:46:34 AM
It takes a massively amount of money or crypto if you building a house in a casino. First, you need to promote this just to gather more clients and also dev for maintenance on the site if you going to have an online casino. In this gambling industry, you need to have cover expenses because there are too many competitors out there who have also a casino. I didn't have experience owning one casino so I can't state the amount of OP need before he had a casino.
It would definitely require a lot of money and its something that I feel the OP should be able to raise because considering the expected profit, one would know that it is worth it. If I knew all about the startup amount needed to start up and all, I would not mind also learning more about how to do this business, because it’s a good profit making business.

Having so many competitors is not an issue, is just to give his own site a good standard that would attract players to the site. And once its is already known to be reputable with varieties of games, then he is sure of many players visiting the site and money starts rolling in.
115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why blame people for your failure? on: May 02, 2019, 07:51:18 AM
You can't blame bounty hunters for dumping coins. It is their earnings from the task they have done. The coins the bounty hunters earned is their right to do to get their money. The coins the bounty hunters is holding is only a portion of the total coins. It is just very small to affect the price. So don't blame the bounty hunters there are other factors affecting the price and volume in the market.
It really amazes me when I hear that hunters are being blamed for the dumping occurring, even if they were to be true, have they not already factored this in while they were constructing their whitepaper? Imagine a company that hires someone to work for him and he agreed to pay such worker at the end of the month, after paying the worker, and he tells the worker not to withdraw the money now till further notice.

This is the game they are trying to play with us, I have already worked for you, you paid me my salary in your token, I can decide to do whatever I wishes to do with the token, it’s my salary and I should not be blamed for withdrawing what I worked for.
116  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tether Lied to You, and is basically worthless on: May 02, 2019, 07:20:34 AM
Tether is really a problem, it has been discussed a long time ago about whether or not $ 1 / 1USDT support. In addition, Tether was accused of being behind a pump of bitcoin prices in 2017. For those reasons, Tether was not always trusted by users.
Although there are many accusations but Tether is still in top 10 CMC , I don't understand why it could be so? I do not accuse Tether of fraud or fraud, because we still do not have proof of authenticity, but I will not hold Tether long, it is too dangerous.
Now you have said the reason why they are still staying on top, because everything has always been pure speculation and not fact, when news is created based on speculation and there is no proof or whatsoever t backup the claim, then it becomes very useless in having any negative effect on the project.

If tether were really behind the pump of BTC is 2017, then why have we not seen its effect again, since it is so easy to manipulate the market of Bitcoin, to me, tether has served me better than what it is out there written about it, I just see it as mere FUD news that is not true to displace them of their 10th position.
117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New Startups companies on: May 01, 2019, 06:17:46 PM
Do you believe in the crypto startups? As a member of a startup exchange I want to ask you:

Do you go and give a chance on new exchanges or you stick on the same for a long time?
If not why ? Smiley
I don’t know for others, but I used to do that before, jumping from one exchange to another cause I’ wasn’t the type that like sticking to a particular thing for long, till I started having bad experiences from them, so I stopped such. This time around I don’t even care whether startups exist or not, I just stick to the good old exchanges I have found. Going from one to another is just a waste of time, I only did that when I was a newbie and wasn’t sure how the platform works. Most of the startups I see these days usually end up being a scam or maybe they start lacking funds or something like that, and the next thing they start putting up fake trading volumes and all that. Just doesn’t making any sense.
I think the reason why people jump from one exchange to another is because they have not found what they require as service in the ones they have been using, that is why it is very necessary for one not to just start using an exchange based on what the team tells us or based on one or two reviews we see on them. Choosing an exchange to also requires great research and strong conviction based on many opinions.

No is even the time that we need to be more careful in using an exchange, since ICO scammers are no longer getting business in ICO, they will want to use the opportunity of IEO to continue with their fraud through low exchanges, so its best they stick with your pattern of choosing exchange based on their popularity and effectiveness.
118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Hotbit exchange is legit. on: May 01, 2019, 12:56:14 PM
Hotbit exchange is legit to you because you haven't experienced any issues yet using the exchange. Some other person might say otherwise. For me, I do not trust any exchange when it comes to storing assets.
It is good to take precaution and be careful with storing our assets on exchanges because the they can fail at any time if they see any hit that is beyond their control, so it is best to use personal wallets that is beyond the control of these exchange, despite all this, there is still one exchange I can vouch for that would in no way default even if we have our assetsstored on their exchange, and that would be Binance.

Any other exchange apart from Binance, I would rather store my cryptocurrency in desktop wallet or hardware wallets which is the safest among all forms of wallet that we have.
119  Economy / Gambling / Re: Win a Lamborghini for 0.00056 BTC on: May 01, 2019, 11:51:17 AM
I think the only reason why this person got more interest than the other "win lambo" type of raffles is that this guy actually sold his house for bitcoin before and he has doxxed himself willingly to prove that he is not lying and dude even got on news couple of times and gave interviews and got his news printed on newspapers.

I am not saying that makes him legit but compared to someone who we do not know and have no clue about I would prefer to go with the dude I can track down at least right? Not saying both of them are legit or not but one looks more legit than the other at least. Of course, when there is places like freebitcoin that is doing the same thing and you can actually participate in a very trusted website for the same thing I don't know who would pick this one.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: which dice site is better ? on: May 01, 2019, 07:35:54 AM
As long as you are playing on a trusted dice site there is no need to consider which dice site is better since most of the time the outcome is the same, you losing your money to the casino.

There is a reason why people say house always wins, almost all proper dice casinos have around 1% house edge except a few of them and they are all doing the same thing, giving you a small chance of winning big if you just hit big once and leave but otherwise if you keep gambling constantly and given enough time the house will get you back since they are literally getting more profit from the same bet than you do, if you bet 49.5% then bet 1 btc, they get your 1 btc if you lose but you get back 1.95 or something and not 2 btc back, which is the reason why dice sites doesn't matter, they are basically the same.
