I see that eight cryptocurrencies are working with poorbot, and there are more coins accepted in Stake.
Do you have any plans to add more of them in future, for example solana with other popular crypto that are not available on Stake, or maybe add a way to send coins to external address with additional fee?
So far it is only internal tipping on Stake between Stake users through Poorbot.

I like your suggestion to have Solana for Poorbot but it sounds impossible to send cryptocurrencies externally. It can be conflict of interest with Stake platform. Maybe Poorbot team will answer you better with this suggestion with their more experience on Stake and understand more about Stake's Terms of Service.

It's a helpful userscript, thanks for coding it.

I noted some pros and cons of forum draft page.
Draft page - Pros & Cons

Some of cons are
Quote
  • Limited to only last 100 posts and drafts will be automatically deleted after 7 days
  • Unable to recover your deleted posts to where it initially posted
  • Almost unable to see where you post it (post ordinal number). Exception: You can only get which thread you post it, when you quote posts of others when reply them
  • Unable to know when you post it

Could your userscript add something to reduce those cons?

From the screenshot, it seems to save the time (when), but how about other points above?
163  Economy / Gambling / Re: Sports betting arbitrage on: January 07, 2024, 02:56:46 PM
This is my first time learning about sports arbitrage.
Basic principles are like Arbitrage Trading but with more risk factors.

Quote
From what I've found, it involves careful calculations and quick actions to take advantage of brief opportunities. It seems like experts in gambling use this strategy to exploit various odds, increasing their chances of winning. However, the risks appear to be higher compared to regular sports betting. And for a regular gambler, his chances using this method is very low. bookmakers actively try to avoid arbitrage situations, so opportunities may be limited and challenging to find.
With Arbitrage Trading, cryptocurrency exchanges are not against it and they won't suspend or terminate your accounts if you use your exchange account for Arbitrage Trading. Exchanges only ban your account if they detect that you use it for money laundering or make deposits from sanctioned addresses.

With Arbitrage Gambling, in sports betting, risk is bigger. You can win, get profit in your account but you might not be approved for withdrawals. You can withdraw successfully with your first or few first withdrawals but after all, they will see something suspicious and investigate your accounts.

(3) Do not see trading as a get rich quick scheme: mostly the set of people that falls into this particular trap is the newbie's, but after some series of losses, they will discover that it's not really what they thought it is.
Above all other points, and from my experience, I see this point is most important for investors and traders in this market.

First of all, let note that this market is very volatile, even we're talking about Bitcoin. With altcoins, surely that they are much more volatile than Bitcoin.

From this first note, investors and traders must get rid of their thinking that this market is a free ATM for them to join, and withdraw money to get rich easily and super quickly.

The painful fact is they can get poor easily and super quickly if they can not control their greed and join scam projects, Ponzi, meme tokens.

They will see some crazy ROIs on social media but it is tip of iceberg only. Under the tip, many people lost money to scam projects.
165  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Power Of Bitcoin on: January 07, 2024, 09:23:30 AM
Bitcoin never closes the opportunity to investors.  It is the investors that miss the opportunity because of certain reasons like doubt, fund shortage and not trusting the Bitcoin market.
The party opens for everyone to join since 2009.

Bitcoin market is a free place for everyone to join from centralized exchanges to decentralized exchanges to OTC market. People can purchase bitcoins in many ways, KYC, no KYC, in person and many more ways. The barriers for people are only they don't have open-mind to learn a new technology and to see the self-destructive and self-devalued fiat currency and central bank systems.

If they see the fact, they will be more ready to join this market.

Livechat is the easiest place to contact to ask questions about problems that occur to us. We know that Stake casino has a large number of players. The availability of representatives on forums is important to answer problems that occur to players who are active in this community. For players who are not on the forum, livechat is a place to contact them which is available 24/7.

The answer we got from live chat was a bit disappointing because our language when communicating was difficult for us to understand. The basic point is that they and we both need it, we need a solution and they provide it.
Live chat is real time and it is helpful when you need real time support for your concern and unclear things. Waiting for support through support ticket will need more time, back and forth replies between the user and a customer support staff. With chat, the conversation between them will be lively and more smoothly.

However live chat for support must be different than live chat rooms for user community because in a chat room, there will be more risk of falling to scammer. Those chat rooms will be very spammy and it's very hard for both a user and customer support staff to follow up the conversation.

They already open so many jobs for moderators on telegram for each country & moderator. Now, they just need to open for the (Live-chat) should be awesome if they can do these. They have a good resource to open more and more vacancies right now.
This open space and job vacancies show that Stake is actually one of biggest platforms and most favorite destinations for gamblers. Big demands from users, more possibility to see the team open more job vacancies for applicants.

It means a lot in this hard time after Covid-19, when globally, there are massive on-going job reconstructing efforts and many people turned to be unemployed.
167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sudden Flash Crash vs Slow Bleed - Which actually kills Investor(s)? on: January 06, 2024, 03:21:13 AM
Now, I have something I wish to share concerning the sudden crash we experienced yesterday, which saw bitcoin crash to around 40,000+ from $45,000+.
It is about 10% correction that is better than many Bitcoin corrections I witnessed since 2017. It is not too deadly correction in my opinion but correction itself is very good for a bull market.

Because this market has many people, who are smart, stupid, greed, FOMO, fear and so on. Corrections are necessary to clean up the market, to kill greedy people who gamble with leverages. When they are out forcefully by market crash and liquidations, the market has better conditions to continue its bull run, with less selling pressure.

Quote
What we investors, should be mostly afraid of is slow bleed, for this is the silent killer.
Investors must do some basics for their investment.

Store their bitcoins in self custody wallets.
Don't use leverages because margin calls are harmful or even deadly for their position and money.

With these basic strategy, investors won't be affected by short term corrections of Bitcoin if the trend is bullish.

169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 05, 2024, 11:00:23 AM
I guess I disagree with you regarding Lukaku and the category he falls into. Since Lukaku's game isn't primarily based on pace, I think he could be a valuable striker until he has reached a higher age. His game isn't as burdensome physically in terms of pace as is the game of Mbappe for instance. If Mbappe loses speed, his game will deteriorate one day. Lukaku could still be a player that is well needed in certain periods of a game, depending on the situation and the circumstances.

But I was rather pointing out that it is time for Lukaku to settle with a club he gets along with and Roma seems to be that place. There is no point in taking another risk and ending up on the bench again. But I guess he will go wherever he is paid the most.
Lukaku is player who does not have good speed like Mbappe, Theo Walcott, Bale, and his playing style depends more on his physical strength in face to face fighting with defenders. With his body, he usually slowly responses to situations when a ball suddenly finds him and he miss those chances.

However if you put Lukaku into his favorite system and tactics, he becomes very dangerous. Like he succeeded in West Brom, Everton, Inter Milan and now AS Roma. He failed in Chelsea and Manchester United but in contrast, he succeeded at two other Premier League clubs so in my opinion, it is not true to say Premier League does not fit with him.

I see that Lukaku is more fitted to Serie A because matches there don't rely on speed too much. It covers weakness of Lukaku and he can use his physical strength to beat defenders in Serie A better than in Premier League.

Hard fork and make many dead Bitcoin forks. I am sorry but it is a bad idea.

I know you are trolling but let me provide some information for OP to prove this idea is bad. A capable developer team, founder will not fork from an open source code, they write the code by themselves for their coins. If they fork, they are incapable team.

you participate in bounty campaigns and sell token then buy BTC? Cool, Then it is another way of invest in BTC. Smiley
Bounties and signature campaigns are different.

When talking about bounties, it usually about tokens and tasks on social media. They barely run bounties with signature campaigns as part of their bounties. If they have a signature campaign, its payment is in token too.

When talking about signature campaigns, in my opinion, it is about campaigns pay participants in Bitcoin or stable coins. Payment rates in those campaigns are better than in bounties. However requirements from managers will be higher and you must be competitive than other participants, with good post quality history to be chosen.

You can find jobs, work and get bitcoin or altcoins then convert (sell) altcoins to have bitcoin.

There's no PoW-based cryptocurrency can be mined for free. You'll need to pay for the hardware and electricity.
It makes Proof of Work cryptocurrencies are harder to die but if miners stop mining, their networks will be dead chains. Proof of Work is not a quality mark of survival of a cryptocurrency.

I don't know about the tool but know that forking from source code is not hard.

Other parties such as Binance have warned this by tweeting on their official Twitter account.
It would be ironic if we didn't celebrate this historic moment with each other.


https://twitter.com/binance/status/1742425301081063678
It is more friendly and also more correct if you say Binance announce or remind it. There is no warning that is a 15 anniversary of Bitcoin genesis block that is not a risk for anyone.

You can know about it with Bitcoin block explorer, type block number = 0 and you will see the Coinbase message. Don't rely on Binance and that graphics was made by someone else, not by Binance. I saw it many times and in many years and really sure that Binance has no reserved rights with it.

The graphic is for a Raw hex version, it is explained in Bitcoin wiki.

Could the BTCGOSU team consider to assess those tipping bots, reviews if possible and list them on your website, please.

What happened in 2015 to make miners accept about 12,239 transactions in one block? I thought the average transactions at that time were between 1,000 and 3,000? The strange thing is that there is a difference of one block between these two blocks, with a total of more than 20k Shocked Shocked transactions.

Knowing the top 5 blocks is not as important as knowing the average. Unfortunately, although the average is currently very high, the fees are still high.
I don't know. I only answered the question of OP.

There are top 10 blocks in 2015 and from this, I believe your guess about average transactions is closely to the fact.

Thanks. Strangely enough, the Blockchair website is not reachable from some of networks that I connect to.
You can use the explorer with Tor and honestly I am really unsure what is your network issue to connect to it and use it smoothly.

Could you share more what problems you got, with what browser. Someone can help you if there is solution.

The other blocks on the list seem to be blocks that included many Ordinal BTC-20 related TXs, especially those from September 2023: Block 806264 for example had 91,8% of TXs being Ordinal related, block 806249 84,8%, block 806280 91,6%, and so forth.
More than 80% to over 90% of a block capacity is too much.

Ordinals become more annoying since February 2023 and in last two months of 2023, they caused more issues for Bitcoin mempools and non-Ordinal Bitcoin users.

This is much higher than 50% like they contributed in February 2023.

It's good if Poorbot do it in the future. I checked in the gambling section that there was a list of casinos[1] that had exchanges integrated into the platform. Poorbot can use this reference to expand its business to several platforms that are not available exchangers but are quite well known on this forum.


1. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5282289.0
Poorbot team can send a request to author of that topic, AmoreJaz, to list Poorbot in the list.

If the user agrees to do this, Poorbot will be exposed to more gamblers who know and regularly visit that thread and guests of that thread in future too.

You made an excellent recommendation to Poorbot team for considering of expansion to other platforms but first, the team must have their accounts on those platforms, and must do research or even ask for support opinions on those platforms, before deploying their tipping service there.

Can I ask you for the advice, please? I need to find the top 5 blocks which include the highest number of transactions. Is there a webiste (blockchain explorer) where I could find an answer, perhaps?
Find it with Blockchair.com explorer.

Use this one https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/blocks?s=transaction_count(desc)#f=id,transaction_count,time for filtering blocks with descending orders by Transaction counts.

You will get results like in the quote.

Decentralize is good but do you think if it comes along with censorship, is it a good movement for Bitcoin community?

Having a decentralized and non-censored network are best things Bitcoin network has in comparison to many altcoin blockchains. If now, it is going to be censored, by Bitcoin nodes, I am really fearful about belief of people in Bitcoin.

If you can censor small things, you can censor bigger stuffs and there will be no limits. Like central banks can lift their limits by brr money printing, developers and nodes can lift up their limits of censorship.
180  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Achieving a goal on: January 02, 2024, 01:53:04 AM
Basically, I have around 25$k to invest, and I really want to hit least 200K$ by the end of this year.
Could you please give me some tips and advises?  
$25k is not a small capital and you must be careful with it. I don't know how much more money you have beyond that $25k but if it is all you have, you must be very careful.

Not financial advice but don't be too greedy, you will lose control yourself and lose your capital.

With $25k, you can buy bitcoin, hold it till Bitcoin doubles its price and you have x2 from $25k.
Then you can use it to buy ETH, wait for it to make to like $100,000.

For the rest time of this bull market, which will last up to maximum 2025, you must handle your $100,000 very carefully. First cash out $25k, to save your initial capital.

Use the rest $75,000 to invest in top Layer 1, Layer 2 projects like Arbitrum, Optimism, top DEX like DYDX. You must avoid shit coins, meme coins.

At the end, if it is a worse investment ending, you will lose $75,000 and still have $25,000 initial capital.
