I do see your point but think about it like this. On every single bitcoin based gambling site there is no owner whose identity is publicly known. For example Primedice is run by Stunna. Now we don't know his real identity . Its just an online identity . Any site could be claimed to be run by an individual or a team . They could always have been using him to maintain confidence but even if they didn't it wouldn't mean they would still not have got all the traffic. Without an Identity behind the people who run the site , you can believe it to be just like any other gambling site. Your argument applies to each such site. A lot of sites in the past have ended as scams which has also been in forms of  running away with player funds . If you do not leave a huge chunk of money on the sites then its fine. If you are worried about your funds on the site , then withdrawing the funds is the best course of action after every game.

In any case of theft I am sure Micon would still come on the forum and help people in getting their money back incase a theft was to occur as he does happen to know the identity of the original owners.

I have had some experience with real estate markets and I feel the price hugely depends . Firstly the economic slowdown definitely affects the price , but it varies from country to country . Not all countries might see a huge downtrend . If you have noticed the prices of real estate in China and India have more than Quadrupled in the years between 2000-2012 , so the fall doesn't really hit them that hard except for people who got in towards the end. The major cities in these countries are also overpopulated so the price is likely to increase again in the future due to demand after the economy becomes stable again .
If you compare US to these countries then real estate company which just buys real estate for investments aren't really running in the manner of holding the real estates just to sell them later and its definitely not the best business to get in. However going into the commission based sector would likely pay off more.

If you want to relate it to banks , How about something along the lines of " The impact of blockchain/bitcoin technology on banks " and doing some research into what the banks are planning to implement with the blockchain and going along that line.

Most of them will likely be in the finance side and not technological side.
bomberb , what exactly would be your skillset or your area of interest for the job hunt ?

I have actually believed Micon to be the owner too . But I used to think he didn't develop or handles the coding for the site.
The only reason those people are being called trolls is since it really doesn't matter like you say . Even if they give you a name, nothing will come out of it. And since in the past it has gone against Micon to reveal his identity  therefore it would have the same affect on anyone in the future linking themselves to Seals .

Actually it was a few months back and I don't think it was ever shut down due to the unlicensed problem. From what I recall they were shifting to a new software so they had shutdown the previous site, also due to a bug I believe. I think it was after launching the new site that they ran into the licensing problem and Micon was to appear in court.

They probably mean Micon who was not exactly arrested but was charged with running SWC even though he was only the PR person.

I suppose more information about the country would be something required before you get any interest , also information about payment being in Bitcoin etc would be helpful in having someone decide.

I have also been using Cyberghost VPN when needed and would definitely recommend it. They have a cheap price if you buy it for around 6 months and do accept payment in bitcoin.

Seems to be a brand new site. Hard to comment on it just yet. I would suggest waiting for a bit . They also don't seem to have an ANN thread which is essential for any customers to address their concerns off the site.

Its important for the site owner because they can set up the site in a risk free way if they don't want to bankroll the site but just want to run it an take commission. As for the gamblers , its just an option to invest in a +EV plan .

I don't think are accepting bitcoins right now directly . Someone posted that they accept if you email them and request bitcoin deposit. But thats not exactly called accepting and is still complicated if you want to play . As for the virus goes, Its hard to say anything about it unless multiple people claim the same . They have decent online presence and if someone found a trojan, it would probably would have destroyd their rep by now.

Thanks for letting us know. I didn't say they were not legit . I was just wondering if they had finally added bitcoin to their system yet.



You might want to be careful leaving any balance on those accounts. Most of the poker sites(only swc is the exception I know off)  do not allow multiple accounts. So if they suspect something foul they might freeze the funds on the 3rd account as well. Would be better to wait for a support reply.

Hourly freeroll  with 0.001 prize money. Playing against 15 other players for that amount is a joke. I am sure the games wouldn't be fun either as everyone would likely be just shoving every hand.

I am not much of an ICO fan myself following a few losses . But there is definitely not a possible dev+exchange scam . I haven't read or seen the ICO thread , but if an exchange had to scam , then it would do so itself . Partnering with a dev sets them up to a possible extortion where the dev could blackmail them . If they were to pull it off themselves it would not pose any future problems. Again not saying it is a scam or if C-Cex  is a scam. Just pointing out the probable , incase it is one.

Any updates on whether you guys have added bitcoin to the deposit options ? Also will it be available for withdrawal as well ?

Really ? Never even heard of it . I am not sure if they have added bitcoin yet. The last update they had  said they are still in the process of adding bitcoin. Have they already added it  ?

Think of start a bounty or something maybe. Seen many websites in the past offer bounties to have people test their website by trying to break it.

Not sure why you think he is and it should be necessary for SWC to make it public. From what we saw Micon faced charges just being a spokesperson to the site , therefore any other person who identifies himself to be related to the site would just be taking a risk to face charges on himself as well.

Pretty much the standard reply . I suppose would have to be followed by IP blocking  . Asking country on registration will always have work arounds and would be useless .




Perhaps you could drop another message asking about this .
