This was one of my first Bitcoin affiliate experiences as well. Also, it was the first and only time I was kicked off of Craig's List. I was a such a nube at the time, to affiliate marketing, to Bitcoin, to dice games, this whole crypto world was still a mysterious new place to me. With that being said, I actually earned a few Mbits. I think the total was less than $20.00 USD worth but I was so happy. Someone just got done telling me that referral links are a waste of time and I should go **** myself because I'm ruining Craig's List. I was unknowingly breaking a few rules and that is NEVER OK when you are promoting a product or service of someone else's. I gave it all right back to FBC.in with a "never fails proven method to earn 1 BTC in a week" using a basic Martingale auto-bet strategy.b Man, I learned a lot of dos and don'ts that week.

    Yes. This is completely understandable. I admire pessimism or what I like to call, being realistic. But when you put all that aside and just give it a shot, you'd be surprised at what can be accomplished. I am and probably always will be a cynical fool when it comes to most things in life. I've been severely jaded by many of my experiences in life. But. Thanks in part to Bitcoin, I've regained some hope. Not just for myself either. I see what this crypto-currency can do for the world, my friend. We may just, for the first time in history, have courtside seats to watch the dynamics of social class shift to the degree of a completely leveled playing field. Globally, simultaneously, and by some begrudgingly. My cynicism has always been directed towards seemingly unchangeable situations. Feeling helpless and pessimistic is a thing of the past for me. Look forward. What have you got to lose besides a little time? If you still are feeling pessimistic after reading this make sure you are positive that's how you feel. 

   Hey, Piper. My name is Chris Butler. Nice to meet you. Interesting topic here for sure. I have done affiliate marketing at a very small scale since around April last year. Not sure how close I am with the date there but I'm positive that the first referral link I ever sent was when Bitcoin was worth $342.00 USD.
   I recently decided to make it my goal to be able to hang up my tool belt and never swing a hammer for money again. To reach this goal  I will be promoting and selling offers through affiliate marketing and I have much bigger ambitions than just conversions and RS.
    Let's just say that I welcome you to and your network to the Bitcoin affiliate world. I will be your competition and I look forward to seeing you succeed. Competition is an important ingredient in the recipe for success. Healthy, respectful competition is also a great motivational tool.
   What's good for Bitcoin is good for all Bitcoin-based companies. I will be checking out your network to see what you are bringing to the arena.
    I will not turn this into an advertisement for my Home Team though, out of respect. I wish you the best on your affiliate journey, Piper. Good luck.


   Love the slogan by the way.

   

Aha! got me...... Just joking. I actually thought the very same thing and I too was mistaken. Don't ask me how beçause this one is beyond even my vast knowledge of all things logical. So instead of trying to explain..Which  I'm sure by now you know I like to. I will show these. Please compare payouts. The difference is extreme and not in the way you would expect. I've covered my affiliate link so there is no way to accidentally make money with these.

    I know that 90% of the cloud mining sites out there are investment schemes of some sort. I also know that the most heavily promoted cloud mining sites partnered with RunCPA are verified legitimate operations.
    To call out a company that has done nothing but good for the Bitcoin community and given people all over the world a chance to earn good money anonymously and in the spirit of Blockchain technology, without any proof other than your oversized font, makes you come off as an uneducated finger pointer.
    I've withdrawn from RunCPA several times. Furthermore, the few times I've had an issue with an advertiser for whatever reason, Jim from RunCPA personally handled it for me. Crunching numbers, code, whatever it took, and did not stop till all parties involved were in agreement and treated fairly.
     If an advertiser is not on the up and up, How is RunCPA to decide this? Wouldn't it be more helpful to uncover the truth yourself and present facts to RunCPA and the forum rather than whatever it is you call the approach your taking? Mining companies like Hashflare have been around as long as cloud mining and have been verified as legitimate paying companies that are doing the service they say they are doing. This information is readily available. Unlike the misinformation you are ranting about. And if it is available, please provide it.
    Just to be clear, I'm not backing up any of the companies you are so suspicious of other than RunCPA. I'm just suggesting a more productive approach that doesn't harm the name of great companies. Not everyone has an open mind and even less people think for themselves. Going around this forum posting nonsensical accusations is enough to convince some people. That, in my opinion is as bad as any scam.
     It's ultimately up to each individual affiliate to do their due diligence and decide which offers work for them. If we find that we are dissatisfied with any offer on the board, RunCPA staff are available and extremely receptive to everything their affiliates say. More so than any other company I've ever been involved with.
    I am here now in this thread to defend the honor of RunCPA. If you want to point your little finger and accuse anyone of being a scammer, come instead with those fingers holding proof.
That is the only way to initiate change. Your giant font isn't going to change the world. Your hard work, research, and disclosure of your findings might though.

     I am very glad to hear that. They have grown up a lot in the last year. If you happen to join the Telegram look for me there. ChrisButler is my name. Hope to see you there. I'm up to .22 now. Woo Hoo. Good Luck.

All traffic sources are allowed. I can think of a few people that talk about their Facebook advertising in the Webmaster's Lodge (Telegram). Facebook is real good at putting the right ads in front of the right people. Almost as good as Google.

     I'm so glad my post accomplished something. If you signed up last year or even at the beginning of this year, you will be surprised at how far they've come.  The improvements are rolling out at a steady pace.

     You may notice I now have a RunCPA signature thing going on down there and I did not when I started this topic. I am not being paid by any person, company or signature campaign to have that. I did place my referral link in it though. I made it myself a little earlier and hope to improve on it as I learn more about BBC.

      Well IamTom123, I wish you the best whether or not you decide to get back in With RunCPA. If you do, be sure to stop by the webmaster's lodge (TeleGram) and look for me. My name shows up as CB.  I would gladly help in any way I can. So would all the other affiliates and staff. I've learned so much there.

    Thanks for sharing.

That is very good news Zodiac. I've never really wagered up to the limit but I have built my way up to a pretty impressive balance. Just the other day I wagered through 2.5 BTC From a deposit of just a few $$$USD worth of BTC!!! That was a fun night.

     Like I said, In those five months, I only worked on my promoting in my very limited free time. Maybe a few hours a month tops. I am going all in now as I see the full potential of what can be done here. I've been very involved in the RunCPA affiliate community on Telegram where we share ideas, strategies, success stories and help each other in any way we can. RunCPA is growing. Fast. I want to help spread the word because as more people know about it, More opportunities become available.
     
      Also. In response to your comment,
 "Doesn't look like something that an ordinary user who has only earned ~0.2 Bitcoin in five months would just casually write."
      I totally agree. Although for now, that's exactly what I am. I am not being paid in any way for this review either. Just to be clear.

     To answer your question, I get paid 0 per click. The companies that partner with RunCPA are not earning their money through page impressions, so CPC would be a waste of money. They are usually Paying per lead (CPL), and always through very generous revenue share (RS). On average the RS is 50% with bonuses for high-quality traffic. By high-quality I mean, people aren't just signing up and never using the site and not spending money. There is a system in place that prevents affiliates from abusing the CPL payouts too.

     So Yeah, I've only made 0.2 BTC. Actually 0.219. But that is from occasionally posting to Twitter. I plan on doing some Google campaigns as well as facebook and a few other paid advertising campaigns. You don't have to be a professional to make good money. You just have to be willing to put in the time. This is not overnight financial freedom. I will succeed at this. I have no doubt.

     People often ask me "What is the best way to earn Bitcoin? Should I try faucets or surveys or solving captchas?".
     To which I always reply " Either find someone willing to donate to you a warehouse of miners and discover the secret of free energy or Join RunCPA".
     Surveys....? They are ok. If you don't mind spending an hour or two for the chance of maybe earning a few hundred Satoshi.
     Railblocks....? Shoot me instead.
     Faucets....? Eh, I won't knock them. I owned a faucet back in the $350.00 Bitcoin days and I know of a handful of people that have formulated a decent system for collecting them. But it is a tedious process and most don't let you withdraw until an incredibly large amount has been stockpiled. By Large I, of course, mean that relative to the amount you get for each collection.
    If you want to earn an amount of BTC that is large enough to actually call income, then RunCPA is the way to go. Here is why.

     I have been a member of RunCPA Since the middle of 2016. I didn't actually become an active member till the beginning of 2017 though. I'll admit, I started out slow and really had no idea what I was doing. But I decided to try it anyway. After posting some of my referral links to Twitter, just a few times, I began to see activity on My RunCPA dashboard. It was so exciting to see my first CPC (cost per click) clicks coming in. In real time. I would post to Twitter and in the time it took me to tab over to my dashboard, I would already have 20 clicks showing. Then I got my first CPL (cost per lead). This was even more exciting because CPL's usually pay for each registered and confirmed email you direct to them. After a successful CPL, any revenue that the company earns from that lead gets split with you. For Life! That is the magic of earning through RunCPA and why it is a better route to take than any of the other aforementioned ways. Your work will keep on paying you. Even when you are not working. I've taken two-three week long hiatuses without signing in to my dashboard due to being too busy with work and then signed in to find that I had earned money during that time without even thinking about it once!

 I now have 21 leads from various offers that all make me money. I find my results very promising considering that I have not yet put a full day of work into my promoting. After only five months of promoting RunCPA's offers in my free time (Which basically doesn't exist) I've earned a decent amount of BTC. I am now ready to take the leap into making affiliate marketing my number one source of income. It's a little scary, but I feel comfortable enough with what I've learned so far to take the leap.


     RunCPA has so much to offer and they are constantly making improvements. There is the Webmaster's Lodge which consists of Telegram channels for the affiliates and RunCPA staff to discuss everything from questions or concerns, needed improvements, suggested features, promotions, strategies, or just to spam a bunch useless pictures of yourself making stupid faces. This is the feature that made me fall in love with RunCPA. They actually listen to what their members want and need and then..... Get this...They actually do something about it. I haven't seen a member's question or issue go without resolution. Just about every suggestion made by the affiliates, within reason, has been implemented by the staff. Evan, Jim, and Margarita are the RunCPA staff at the forefront of the community. Then there are the other affiliates. Everyone there is helpful and we all go above and beyond to ensure each other's success. Believe me, when I tell you, they are on your team and will help you to succeed. They are the reason I feel comfortable going full time with this.

     I could go on and on about why RunCPA is my #1 choice for earning Bitcoin. Instead, I will tell you to give it a shot. If you can connect to the internet, you can make money. You don't need a website. RunCPA accepts all traffic sources. Except fraudulent of course. I have never spent a Satoshi on advertising although I plan on doing so very soon. I have made all my money so far by posting to Twitter and word of mouth face to face advertising. I will update this topic in a few months from now if I can get a good WI-FI signal on my new Island that I will be buying with my new stats. Thanks for reading and good luck on your affiliate journey.



     

 I never remember the odds with these games. They don't matter too much in my opinion. If the odds say 1 in 32,000 I know I can play 2,000,000 rounds and not hit once.
[/quote]

imo it is not 1 in 32 000 and if yes you would hit in average 1 in 32 000 rolls and not 1 in 2 000 000

would be nice if one can give us the correct chance
[/quote]

I think you misunderstood my point. The way I see it, the odds don't really matter too much to me. Considering I played Plinko every day for about two months, dropping hundreds of thousands of bits and never hit the outside row. Then one day I hit it twice in a matter of minutes.
I will ask about the exact odds though and post back.

  Considering there are actual investor based games out there, why does this board continue on with the investor based games title? I understand why these HYIP advertisements/topics would end up in the gambling section. That's the obvious place for them. The part that is driving me crazy is the obvious joke in the board's description.

Investor-based games
Games where the main factor is whether or not new "investors" join the game. Also any Bitcoin-denominated investment product with an APY far above the reasonable market rate.

This just doesn't fit in with the overall snooty, stick up the butt type of forum moderation I've grown accustomed to here at BTCT. Why not call it what it is? For a few reasons.

• 1. People who don't know too much about the forum might totally overlook the entire board.
• 2. There are actually investor based games that all show up on a different board.

This is the HYIP Board, moderators and admins, It's funny to me that this keeps on keepin' on while you go around deleting and belittling people for posting theirs in the wrong section. That doesn't describe all the moderators of course. I'm just generalizing there. I've come across a few mods that have had their butt stick removed, and they are very helpful. Well, I'd say there's my two cents but since we are in crypto-land....... There's my two Satoshi.

  Now I have to go post something happy to make sure I don't turn into one of you disagreeable, know-it-all thread crawlers.

What other sites host a plinko game? Are there any others that have a faucet too? I found one browsing through moneypot sites but I can't remember the name of it. It must not have been too impressive. I still think Bitvest Plinko is the best. My opinion may be biased though as I am a diehard Bitvest fan. I challenge someone to change my mind. Remember though, This thread is about Plinko.

This could be an interesting thread if more plinko players would chime in.
