Hmm. If Bitcoin price relied less on sentiment and emotion, and more on good news or bad.. And if that's the strength of 3 good things then we should be worried.
Tax season should have already been priced in. The coincheck news was already credited for the bump to 7400, which of course didn't last long at all. And history? Think the objective historian would see this as the beginning of another multi-year wait.
Setting our alarms for 2020?

Easier said than done, but such is the case when psychology and emotion are involved. I'm actually pretty sure that even the bears aren't happy of the market just keeps crashing. They can only profit from shorting for as long as there are high prices for them to enter into.
Of course, in the world of percentages, Bitcoin dropping from 7k to 6,300 is just the same as from 10k to 9k... But the volatility is preferable at higher prices that attract more volume.
Am a holder that sells as I need, feeling a wee bit sad these days being forced to sell more coins for the same bills and expenses. But then again, am earning more coins as so I guess my gratification comes later.
Pavlov's dogs, now, are we?

Right! I've been doing well in Champions League betting but terrible in Europa. However, pretty inspired by Hhampuz's amazing parlay win. Let's see if I can turn $5 of Bitcoin into over $100 on a x21 acca with:
Straight winners Arsenal, Athletico, Lazio and surprise Marseille. A minute before kickoff! Mostly rides on the Marseille win @5.2, but I don't know. Have a feeling the Frenchies will come through tonight.
You could remove Marseille as the others are favorites , however the odd of the parlay without Marseille in it will be about 3.4, so a 25 USD bet would be ideal and with high chance to win it. Personally I have gonne for Lazio tonight as I think their quality is better than Salzburg which is the biggest surprise of Europa League until now. I opted for Marseille knowing it was going to be risky. They only went down to the solitary goal, though, so maybe they're not as crappy as the bookies think (but who am I kidding yeah?). So a night for favourites. I'm still counting on Athleti to go on and win the whole thing, but Arsenal seem to be finding consolation and form in Europa, good for them. Wenger's last hurrah, let's hope. He surely deserves it. Can't wait for next week's 2nd leg QF for CL. Really want Liverpool to get their first semi in almost a decade.

Didn't exactly specify a timeframe for this higher correction, though I suppose you didn't mean for it to happen in two days? I see your floor is holding true so far, in fact, last few times I looked it's been more or less the same $6,700, haven't had the time to look at today's charts properly.
You know what would be really interesting? All of you AI project guys start putting your products to work and see which AI/ML project calls the long rally first (or the converse).

let us not forget that Mike Hearn was also responsible for one of the biggest FUDs that was spread about bitcoin. back in the days (i think it was 2015) that he became butthurt and decided to leave bitcoin, but instead of leaving it behind like a civilized person he decided to spread some FUD about bitcoin first. long story short he said bitcoin is going to die soon. this was when price was about $400 and it had a big dump afterwards down to $300 or $200 if i am not mistaken which is a large drop because of a simple FUD (near half).
Passionate people abound in Bitcoin, to be sure. Hearn certainly did cause an uproar... and he seems to take credit in the AMA for causing Bitcoin to slide in price (20% actually, not 50% as you say, which recovered shortly), but I don't think anyone ragequitting even in those days would have ever killed of Bitcoin. I suspect the only developer that will ever have an impact on Bitcoin (price) will be Satoshi him/her/them self/ves. P.S. AMA wasn't half as exciting as I'd have expected. Thought to see some of the old fire return.

Okay what the actual fuck City(Shitty?) got violated 3-0. Could Liverpool be a real CL title contender? I take back what I have said earlier lol. There is another fixture still so Liverpool are not in the clear yet. Shit I need to get my bets on Liverpool going I think that City will be able to win the next match but the question is with what margin.. I mean if Liverpool scores once I think City are fucked. As for them being a contender for the title, I doubt it, sadly. But they do give us some interesting games that's for sure. Dunno man I still remember last season's games between PSG and Barcelona. PSG pounded them 4-0 in the first leg then Barcelona went on to win 6-1 at home. City could do some real damage at home and eliminate Liverpool even if they do get to score an away goal. One thing's for sure - we will get to see a very interesting match in Manchester Wendigo you do indeed need your bets going on Liverpool! The Anfield cauldron is not a myth. That magic really drives the team on. Yet another fruitless outing for Sterling too, got himself another booking for his troubles. Happy with myself, good Champs League run continues. Made a nice 3.1 and 1.7 win on Liverpool match winner and over 2.5 goals. Now they just need 1 goal at Etihad and City could score four and still get knocked out. Counting on the Reds to do just that, but Hendo is unavailable so we'll be relying on Wijnaldum and Milner to break up play. As long as we keep the frenetic pace from first leg at least in the first half, we should cross the line. Two own goals from poor Roma, but Barca should have won anyway. Looks really good semifinal setup so far!

We are drowning in negative market sentiment right now. Everything is caused by the amount of not-so-pleasant news like the ban of crypto-related ads by facebook, twitter and google. Troubles with adoption - which seems to be halted or even regressing at some places. More countries are trying to fight bitcoin - Venezuela and Afganistan and so on... Given the situation, it's no wonder that we have not exactly the bearish market right now.
I'm normally of the opinion that all news is in a balance, more or less positive and negative. More or less non impactful on price, since price has historically been moving despite, rather than because of, what the news is telling us. Last year's forking and FUDing amidst ATHs convinced me of this. But now I'm beginning to wonder if indeed the balance has swung towards the negative. Feel like I'm seeing and hearing "bear" everywhere. And some people I do business with are even off commenting that it's "expensive" business paying me in Bitcoin... Understandably, perhaps, if they bought it at high prices. Not that I complained when 20k was in sight! Hoping for more uplifting news...

Apparently, this guy's been away for a while but he'll be holding an AMA on Reddit. Early Bitcoin dev, even had contact with Satoshi. Was the source of some new Satoshi correspondence shared in this forum sometime last year. One of the first big blockers, he's turned his back on Bitcoin but might be interesting to see what he's been up to. Plenty of fans still, judging from the responses. https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/89k4gh/mike_hearn_will_be_returning_briefly_to_rbtc_for/

Karpeles looks or sounds like a good man after all. I think he was never trying to cause this massive clusterfuck, he just didn't envision such thing could happen.. or he did, but it was too late to stop it and he couldn't react until things went south.
Now he has no control of these coins, and due insanely stupid government laws, a ton is going to be lost. Since the coins aren't sent back to the owners, but sold in fiat, then sent in fiat (at the prices at the time, against hodler's will) there will be many losses due taxes. When Karpeles recieves the remaining coins (in fiat) potentially half of it will be lost in taxes, which means if he wanted to pay back what creditors actually deserve (current valuation of BTC) he couldn't.
The insane laws have created this clusterfuck. It would have been as easy as sending the BTC back to the owners in BTC transactions, but the government dumbasses had to ruin it all.
Hard to tell. On the face of it all, he does seem truly apologetic... but that's actually quite common for figures like him, same as the Dogetip app guy who was really sorry to let people down after losing millions. Let's not forget that he seemed to know what was going on for a long time, and did his best to maintain semblance of normality for as long as possible before eventually being forced to come clean. Again, not abnormal and certainly, a natural human instinct. Plenty of ponzi operators started out well meaning too. Doesn't really forgive them for what they did. What's "refreshing" is to see just how many victims seem ready to forgive and forget. Also interesting to see how Blockstream just kept quiet on the whole saga. Surprised Ver himself didn't show up or did I miss his comments?

While looking just realised Bitcoin.org has a recommended wallet section: https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/mobile/windowsphone/Only Coin.Space is listed there though and the devs stopped supporting it since July last year, so that's not an option for you. Check out the Microsoft store why don't you? I see at least three recognisable ones there. Bitpay, Copay... but I doubt any of them have the functionality or control you'd want. Can't vouch for how good any of them are, but BitPay has its fair share of users, but you should familiarise yourself first with the way BitPay works. Might I suggest just using a browser to access a good, working wallet, where only you have private keys? Like say... counterparty?

Not as interesting as I'd expected, although curious to see how he basically admitted that he would eventually be coming into billions once everything is settled down. Not much the AMA as a PR move can do to redress his reputation, be really interesting if he publishes everything transparently once litigation is concluded.
Also, note that he says Mt Gox isn't linked to Bitcoin's price plunge according to the trustee, but that's almost how he immediately starts his introduction.
Plenty of "I'm sorry" peppered throughout =)

OK, first on to OP.
1. Probably never wise to complain like this unless you've already waited for an official answer and never got one. 2. I just went in to test. It does seem you can't bet on max payout (or min) if you bet really low. Can't seem to find the minimum values to "unlock" the odds/payouts, checked Rules and couldn't find it... so fair point that it should be easy to see this on a site - or at least a help button or notification should pop up to show. 3. You probably misunderstood what Provably Fair means. Your complaint doesn't in any way address if it's provably fair.
And on to BoxxoB's suggestion, what's wrong with suggesting a site that fits what OP seems to require? It's relevant to the main issue. I'll go on and suggest two more where all payouts are eligible to any player, faucet, deposits, 1 satoshi bets, or otherwise: crypto-games and Bitvest. Max payouts work fine for even 1 satoshi, with no withdrawal restrictions if you meet the minimum.

Crikey, I got my betting wrong last night. Thought Real was playing at home first, and then it all dawned on me when I saw the stadium. My mind must be too much on Liverpool, but should really be more careful. Ended up a small loss though, since Bayern somehow managed to win. These are the odds for winning the Champions League as per Bet365 markets at the moment: Real Madrid 3.75 Barcelona 3.75 Man City 4.33 Bayern Munich 4.33 Liverpool 15.00 Roma 76.00 Sevilla 101.00 Juventus 251.00 I am thinking of putting 1 unit on City, Bayern and Barcelona. That would make me a profit unless Real makes history by winning the 3rd in a row haha. I am rooting against Real I don't think Liverpool have what it takes to beat the big teams though. Juventus and Sevilla are goners. Roma very likely too after tonight's game. I put a small bet on Liverpool, but I only got 14.00, should have waited! After last night though, I wouldn't mind a $1 bet on Juventus to win (odds are 700/1 now at Unibet). You just never know what could happen. 3 goals isn't impossible over 90 minutes. But yeah I don't see Real as winners. If Liverpool don't make it past City, then my favourite is still Barca. But anyway, focus on tonight's betting: Liverpool a sweet money line @3.1 should be enough for a risk also on over 2.5 goals @1.7/

Call me a sucker, but I bought an entry into one of your leagues... and never received a confirmation of the order (Order was processed and Bitcoin purchase confirmed). Clicking on the league I entered and looking up my purchase doesn't show me anything. Was over a week ago, so I assumed to wait and see if the league would end but nothing in my email or account. I do something wrong?

Why not get your answers direct with them? If you really got a solid idea, I'd say just put it all down on paper, prepare the pitch, build as much of the code as you can yourself, and get clarity on your own product. Most startups work on a so-called minimum viable product (MVP) with these incubators.
Send it not just to Binance Labs... check out Waves Labs (which gives out their own seed funding too, as much as 100k WAVES). Or Satoshi Labs even if you're in Southeast Asia.
Then you ask them your questions. They tell you what you're short of. You got nothing to lose, since any feedback will strengthen your deliverables.

I thought I'd seen them all. Reminds me somewhat of that old Romance of the Three Kingdoms boardgame. The idea would definitely appeal to those who like nation conquering, except that there has to be more of a gaming element, rather than just collectible value - or the richest players just ruin the game very quickly.
Gives me an idea for a similar on-chain game, but it'd need to keep all the political and economical aspects (how about warfare too yeah?) of ROTK.

Hey guys today is Champions League's day hurray Time to get the bets in and the snacks ready for the show tonight. Sevilla - Bayern Munich BTTS Sevilla showed they are no slouch vs United and Bayern are Bayern nuff said lol. Juventus - Read Madrid HT 0-0 well I am not completely sure how this match will go but I am gonna try that particular bet because Juventus are playing at home so one would expect minimal goals if any. GL everyone I think we can both agree that Real Madrid is in an amazing form right now and it would be almost impossible to beat them. The way Real sailed past PSG (which was a very good contender for finals) shows us what this team is capable of. On the other hand, Juventus had a very close match with Spurs and it was those 5 minutes and goals by Dybala that changed the course of the match. I feel it would be an easy win for Real tonight if Ronaldo and Bale can play at their peak. The only issue with Real is their defense and hence I am predicting a 2-1 score line in favor of Real today. Not impossible, but definitely always a huge task. I do find it strange that Real keeps on winning and yet they don't get the same amount of respect teams like Juventus do (or is that my imagination?). Eyes on Ronaldo as usual but I suspect the Old Lady will just do their thing - I'd love for both teams to just not be afraid of each other tonight. Anyway, all talk. My picks tonight: My gut says Juventus, even if Real Madrid at home are nearly unbeatable. ML @3.3 is too tasty. Bayern should easily win, so I'll take ML at a modest @1.61 and take an Over 3 @2.0

Yes, I think this is the bottom of the bitcoin, now the amount of demand for bitcoin is increasing and the big investors are paying attention to it. The good news for the bitcoin people is gradually recovering and rising again, it will bring huge profits if all have kept it in the past.
the Death Cross is when a stock's 50-day moving average crosses below the 200 day moving average (MA). The price of bitcoin came very close to doing that or according to some reports actually did so. It has done this before on several occasions but has managed to recover in all cases so far. Yeah, been seeing a couple of Death Cross reports recently (strange I never came across it before though) and when I look at the charts myself, it seems to be a real stretch to realise (lows that were barely a minute, and from a cherry picking of exchange price). Like you said though, all of these death crosses, dead cat bounces, whatever they come up with - they've all happened before and usually failed to unfold as predicted. Doesn't mean Bitcoin is out of the woods yet. Far from, but doesn't mean it's time to book the hearse, either.

Easy is seldom good. Good is seldom easy. I can understand perfectly why whitelabeling should be attempted for crypto, but there's probably a very good reason, or reasons, as to why there hasn't been any whitelabel offering from any of the recognised exchanges. We see casino whitelabels, faucet whitelabels, simple scripts mostly. My guess is that none of these big exchanges actually have any proper security, not the sophisticated kind they claim anyway.
Woe to those who try launching their own simple exchange. Forget technology, prepare to drown in support requests. One unhappy trader is all it takes to start the scam accusations.
