121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I never made any profits in dice game.. whats is your opinion on: September 22, 2016, 11:46:54 PM
I have made a ton of profit in bitcoin gambling. However I never get to cash it out, because I always end up betting it all away.

In TF2 and CSGO gambling, I've lost a total of 400 keys, which is 400*2.5, about $1000.

I once used the starting 100 bits and gambled all the way to 100,000 bits, and I was estatic. I kept on gambling to 250k and then lost it all. I went and deposited 10k and lost that. Well, it was fun while it lasted.

I'm going to try for the 200 click giveaway.

The site's down for me, Cloudflare says that the servers are down. I get a 521 error. I really want to try for this giveaway!

Interesting concept, however 1.9% house edge is relatively high, compared to other sites. I'm interested in playing, however. I'm kind of sick of dice. Currently i'm hooked on bustabit Tongue

The server's down!

I don't think it has anything to do with being a "rich guy's club." Being able to run a node shouldn't be a "rich guy's club" either. And though mining already is, do we want to exacerbate that? Maxblocksize is very much about preventing the externalities that limit node/miner participation into more and more centralized groups.

I think "artificial limit" implies a misconception. Bitcoin as a system was a matter of designing a system that optimally aligns market incentives to ensure a decentralized, secure network. We cannot have talk about an "artificial limit" without mention that this limit is specifically designed to ensure decentralization and security---the former by maximizing the ability to run nodes and participate in mining, and the latter by forcing users to pay some of the cost of confirmed transactions, rather than externalizing all costs onto nodes and miners (forcing some off the network). I take exception when people try to make this about "free markets vs. central planning."

Bitcoin was centrally planned from Day 1; the entire point is trying to design the optimal system, with regard for all of its parts. The point wasn't to disregard most of the system so we can guarantee cheap/free transactions for users.

blocksize doesn't affect miners as much as nodes. Miners who can afford to mine in this market can afford to have bigger blocks too, because blocksize is limited by nodes, not miners.

Just that miners will have to receive more than 4mb of transactions before they can start mining. Tongue


And 98% of nodes right now can support 4MB blocks without a problem.     



And the nodes that can't, really shouldn't be on the network. We don't want weak links in the chain.

Australian government just wants some of your sweet coins to auction off, as you know they are in need of some cash  Tongue

On what grounds do they have to prosecute you? Only the statements of two officers?
128  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Geopolitics and Crypto on: September 22, 2016, 09:35:13 PM
I really hope so too. Banks dont just publish their own currency's value, but their exchange rate on other currencies.

Just like there's XAU, we need XBT.
129  Other / Meta / Re: How aren't Bitcointalk ads blocked by ad blockers like ABP ? on: September 22, 2016, 11:43:23 AM
It seems like the ad divs are encrypted, from DarkStar_'s post. I'm on mobile currently... (Screw you Google I want to use Dev tools)

Theymos, how do you manage to have statistics on your ads ?

Simple PHP logging every time either the server receives a GET request of the ad? Some sort of logging.

My recommendation is three strikes Max, unless they have a good reason to spam (Can't think of one. It better be a damn fine reason.). After that? Pull out the nukes.
131  Other / Meta / Re: Account 'MatTheCat' compromised, suspended? on: September 22, 2016, 11:34:17 AM
The thing is, we can't prove that you were really hacked. The bitcoin way (signing a message) doea not work when you want to prove you didn't do or don't have access to something. Sad to say, you're in a tough spot.
132  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why very little campaign for newbie? on: September 22, 2016, 11:28:44 AM
1. Because newbies can't put anything nice in their signature
2. Because newbie accounts aren't usually trusted, as 99% of scammers are newbies
3. I wouldnt want an army of newbies working for me, especially if they all might be one person.
133  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Education [Brainstorming] on: September 22, 2016, 11:27:25 AM
Chuck out faucets and cloud mining. Horrible ideas. Just make it one whole in-depth discussion of the bitcoin protocol, the inner workings and how economically efficient it is.
134  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Auto buy via bitcoin? on: September 22, 2016, 11:24:57 AM
Slut.io was the most reliable one which is probabaly shut down I think.You can simply buy a autobuy scrpt via various online forums.Easy to integrate on your webpage.

There's slut.io, satoshibox.com, and another one which I recently got scammed on, payivy.com (I don't think it was payivy's fault).

Id recommend to use a wallet api like block.io or blockchain.info.
135  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to buy bitcoins using prepaid debit cards? (Like to ones sold in walmart) on: September 22, 2016, 11:21:57 AM
i think xapo debit card is what you are looking for, but it require your id, i think all those cards require id, they aren't anon
Let me clarify.
The debit card itself doesn't require identification, however if you want to load from a debit card into bitcoin value, it's going to cost you some cash nd your ID.
136  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Difference in price between coinbase and bitstamp on: September 20, 2016, 10:24:07 PM
They're two different Exchanges.

The price difference is good for business, you should take advantage of it and buy where it is low and sell where it is high. That is how people make money. Don't see the price difference as a negative thing.

It's called arbitrage. Watch out, one exchange might just be a little behind the other. If you buy at one, while you're waiting for the bitcoin to arrive, the price could even out.
137  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Greetings fellow humans! [Introduction] on: September 20, 2016, 10:21:58 PM
Interesting! Can we see your site (even if it's in development)? I can help you if you need anything, just message me Smiley

I find it hard to envisage bitcoin integrated in everyday life in the state that it's in now. I'm not going to wait 10 minutes for my transaction to confirm, especially with the blocks being so full nowadays. We need that lightning chain.
138  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ARE NEWBIES CONSIDERED AS FOOLS? on: September 20, 2016, 10:17:23 PM
Newbies are usually considered as fools, because in this time of the forum, everyone coming on is either interested in earning from a signature campaign or are looking to scam.
