this could pump the market as i can see, after that? the price of bitcoin would be gone back to the <value> which is before the jackpot winner claims the prize, this could lead to major loss within a pump.  Tongue
that's why you should not get your jackpot in bitcoin lumpsum.

love btc-e


those crazy australian markets are ripe for picking though
Bitcoin:
$648.99
Litecoin:
$5.15


go bitcoin go

lol, this pump isn't gonna work easily.
can u link the source of what you just seen about "$648.99"?
FYI the trading volume of bitcoin market in china is skyrocketing again, probably we are gonna have the pump wave due to the chinese stock market crash. Grin
1223  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: idea of creating a bitcoin carnival. on: January 08, 2016, 08:31:34 AM
firstly, i think asking for admission fee is hard because you do not yet know how many actual attractions would turn up.

unless you organize and research what attraction operators are available in the area, its impossible to promise how big or small it will be.
especially if you are promising something bigger than a county fair,

for instance some county fairs have 40 fun rides

car shows
animal shows
music stages

so i think you need to look harder at what a hong kong carnival can offer, which would then lead you to know if its appropriate to charge more than an american county fair, or even 50%-80% of disneyworld.

so look harder at what will definetly be achievable to be present. starting with locations. EG a small field cant hold as much stuff as multiple fields next to each other.

and another idea would be if there was a building big enough for conferences or a soundstage so that you can host a bitcoin conference there at the same time. right next to the large field to cover the space needed to host the attractions

summary
so i would suggest you start with where, then what, and then re-evaluate how much later.

sure, let's start to talk about it from here.
in fact i need to do much more research than in America, we don't have much people to afford such a $30 admission fee, $10 would require us to pay the cost and ask the guests to pay for the rides; not all of the people could afford it. would $15 be better? Huh

FYI we have the worst carnival based on the charge ever: that Tung Wah charity carnival in that former Kai Tak airport; as you can see one of the thrill rides called tourbillion charges HKD$120 (~$15) to admit one but not even lasts for 2 minutes. although it is the world-first used and costs around 2 million euros, the charge is still too high to admit.

Where would you be holding this carnival? I think you'd have to also think about cost and the people you're going to hire to do this. Will you be paying them out in btc or fiat? It sounds like a nice idea if you're trying to make more people aware about bitcoin. Not sure as to how this would work out with bitcoins if not that many people in your area know about it.

we would use bitcoin if they accept, we won't force people to accept bitcoin, that is their choice.
just add either bonus or discount on paying bitcoin in parts or even full.

When people talk about carnival I just can't imagine what you guys are talking about.

Where I live we do it this way, every week end for like 2 month !
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vzD9MJXmCo

in america a carnival is more like a circus tent with clowns and animal tricks
in the uk a carnival is a street procession of decorated flatbed trailers with themes and walking bands and stuff going down the main streets of a town.

im not sure what hong kongs version of a carnival is.

like this. www.tgec.asia
1224  Economy / Speculation / Re: The Stock Markets AROUND THE WORLD are crashing .... What will BTC do? on: January 08, 2016, 06:06:34 AM
bitcoin is going up for sure. Shocked
i can see that bitcoin is now more popular becaus of the law in china led to the crash of the chinese markets i guess. bitcoin $1000 is more likely no longer a dream.
1225  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is eobot a scam? on: January 08, 2016, 05:03:14 AM
sorry, but eobot is connected with that cloud mining website.
i conclude this as a scam as the cloud mining one is already collapsed, probably the eobot is gonna collapse as well.  Sad
1226  Economy / Speculation / Re: The current bitcoin price increase won't be a pump and dump. Do you agree? on: January 08, 2016, 04:04:13 AM
there would be more people to go for the bitcoin due to the index collapse.
i guess, there would be a low-level bump ups due to more people starts to use the bitcoin to store wealth and save themselves from the market collapse. Huh there are major collapse in the chinese market so i would believe more people is gonna start to use bitcoin.

Can your carnival have fun clowns too?



not to joke, but your "clown" isn't good to children when they saw it.

so, can anyone here to provide some of the ideas about the admission fees?
unlike county fair, it is larger than it. and there are a lot of stuff which could be disputed. Huh
i would recommend for $15 at this moment after reading the ideas.

You can't just blindly say that you are going to charge a specific price for something like this and not know what it would cost to run such a thing.  You need the equipment, employees, space to hold carnival, etc.  Plus you have to think about the demand for such a carnival...

Think about it, you are planning on just holding your average carnival, but with the extra payment convenience of bitcoin.  Is the goal of creating the carnival for profit, or just the advertisement of Bitcoin in general? Where are you planning on holding it? Are there a lot of people in the area that use bitcoin and would like to go to a carnival?  

As you can see, there are a lot of things that can go wrong... especially if you're asking people to specifically pay in bitcoin (I know you said people can pay with USD for convenience... but it looks like you are specifically asking for people to use and accept bitcoin there.)

So, I guess to answer your question... maybe after you calculate all the costs, and still would want to go through with something like this... maybe you should charge higher prices for people who use USD, compared to people who would pay with bitcoin?

hmm, seems legit. lemme calculate for that matter...
in fact, the bitcoin carnival isn't used to gain profits, it is used to promote bitcoin instead. we want to carry out fun on that carnival, and not to take them much. although the budget would be around hundreds of million (as estimated), we need to imitate the county fair to promote that places, and the bitcoin.

asking people to use and accept bitcoin is the main reason to hold this carnival, since it is "bitcoin" carnival. we could accept fiat at the higher price? it could be dangerous on the popularity.

(subject to addition)

With admission fee, the rides fee are covered with or not? If the rides are all covered then I voted for level ranges from $10 to $20, that is the alout of carnivals here in my country but some of the attrations have a separate admission so you have to pay for it separately if youcwant yo try it like some booths.
i originally expected (not set) the price to $25~30 since i would expect all of the rides are covered; more people to try on the thrill rides = less relative costs.
we don't want too much commission on the thrill ride admission.  Undecided

If you have to ask you are doing it wrong already. This is mostly a thankless job (community wise) and you are going to be hated upon by bad actors. If you really have to know all it takes is having a high amount of reported posts and a high accuracy (correctly reported posts). In order to stand out ATM you need to have a few thousand reported posts. Even then this is not a guarantee because right now (from my point of view) there is no need for patrollers, not to mention moderators. There are usually 0 or < 5 reports to handle.

There is also this:
i am not that reliable

i really need to gain some money to support my daily lives, if moderator has wages, it could be suitable for me to work in here.
Get a real job. Moderators here do not get paid, they get rewarded for their contributions. You can't even earn minimum wage this way because some a very active (e.g. CyrusV, Mitchell, Lauda).

got it, however, did you get paid for doing so? ???
i need to build up more reputation on this forum now, see ya.
Your reputation does not play a role at all. I had none when I joined the start and still have none.

got them. Sad
i would still be interested to be a mod even if without any wage, in fact.
i would have gotten a real job already if i had enough time.

If you want to be a mod then you have to put in the time and work and report a lot of posts with a decent level of accuracy so the admins know you're qualified for the job but I really wouldn't set out to be a mod as you'll likely be waisting your time or setting yourself up for disappointment. Asking to be a mod and because you want to get paid is usually the wrong way to go about it too. If you want more money from this forum join a better signature campaign or offer some services in the Marketplace.

yes, in fact. i am not gonna fake my age here.  Tongue
in order to ensure that the transparency; so you won't need to ask extra information.
1232  Other / Meta / Re: how can i be a forum moderator? on: January 07, 2016, 08:22:27 AM
I don't know but I think that ki of reason won't get you to the moderator staff. Maybe you should be trusted and responsible and reliable.

i am responsible sometimes, i am active in the bitcoin forum all the time.
i am not that reliable, but at least i could help/assist something here in bitcoin forum.
1233  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin risky? It actually feels very, very safe to own Bitcoin right now :) on: January 07, 2016, 08:18:23 AM
we have complete key directory, although it is hard to find an address with bitcoin, it is still a bit risky to get your bitcoin stolen.
i would believe that bitcoin is safe unless the directory could easily figure out the keys and the addresses.

It is not the risk of being stolen that OP is talking about, it is the risk of losing alot of value.

Due to the shaky financial situation in the world, stuff like bitcoin can become very attractive very fast due to the inability of the government to influence it.

if it could be stolen easily, then bitcoin would be worthless, at lease i made a point here.
there is a potential risk as i told. Huh



block halving could increase the value of bitcoin i guess. because the supply halved while demand isn't decreasing; bitcoin value still increases unless demand halves.
1234  Other / Meta / how can i be a forum moderator? on: January 07, 2016, 08:14:26 AM
i wanna what i need to do to become a form of this kind of forum moderator.
i really need to gain some money to support my daily lives, if moderator has wages, it could be suitable for me to work in here.

any advice? Huh
1235  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you buying bitcoins? Why? on: January 07, 2016, 07:37:53 AM
yup, using the cash in bitcoin ATM.

it is really convenient to children to use the bitcoin without such bank/debit cards.  Grin
since i am.

please no FUD, we are too busy and have not enough time to FUD about this, if bitcoin was dead, it would still likely revive.  Tongue
1238  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi's Big Mistake & The Centralization of Bitcoin. What are your thoughts? on: January 07, 2016, 06:27:38 AM
we still have a lot of the miners overseas, don't want centralization on mining? create your own pool.
btw a single gigahash gives a lot of good advantage to the blockchain security AFAIK, and the price per GH isn't that pricey anymore as the hashing power rises say by day.
1239  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why next pump might be completely different on: January 07, 2016, 06:24:01 AM
China is where 99% of the mining goes on. So if china goes down bitcoin may well collapse.  Huh

shutting down those miners would be the best thing that happened.....

Just don't ban bitcoin please

sure, we need more independent miners, not just those Chinese miners.
we want decentralization, instead of mining power centralization in bitcoin.

What evidence do you have that links them to ISIS?

EVIDENCE ? I have sense of fuckin humor .I worked there ,wrote a 3000 lines code then I was asked to send this code to guy named "Bilal Bosnić".On research I found out he is the main recruiting guy for their army in Europe!!!

WHAT AN IDIOT. HAVE YOU DONE ANY WORK FOR US? THE ANSWER IS "NO". WE WOULD NEVER HIRE SUCH A RETARD. WHY PEOPLE DO NOT TALK ABOUT OUR JOBS? BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO BUSY DOING REAL BUSINESS AND MAKING MONEY, UNLIKE LOSERS LIKE YOURSELF. WE HAVE PAID FOR EVERY SINGLE JOB WE POSTED ON THIS AND OTHER FORUMS. GO SPAM SOMEWHERE ELSE, IDIOT.
no fucking shouting and calling people is "idiot" just because of subjective reason!  Angry
and if u ar supporting IS, then u know what would happen if u are exposed.

Another idiot. Who is exposed? Time wasters. Go get a real job already.
woah, but u made a solid evidence of bullying me (calling me as an idiot unreasonably).
if you cannot correct your behaviour then i won't sure if you are banned for that reason.


1) I am not the one using foul language - that should be a real reason for bans.

2) Use a spellchecker before you post in English.

in fact, foul language are not directly considered as threats. profanity, so-called foul language moderation are nearly not enforced.
doesn't matter. rather than calling you gullible, you must beware what is your attitude to your posts.
