I made a really nice profit when I bet on Kroatia to win against Argentina last time.
The whole match I was thinking that they couldn't possible win, but they were strong throughout the whole match.

Made around 300 euro profit on that bet.

I personally think there's absolutely no fun when you're playing with less than 10 satoshis.
I mean it would take ages to win anything.

Even if you have the lowest faucet, you'd still be better off placing just one or 2 larger bets.

I've personally never made use of stablecoins like Tether, for those reasons listed in this article.
I really think it doesn't have enough collateral, so I'd rather work with an actual fiat exchange than use Tether.

Had never heard of Havven though, might look into that instead.

That's not a working product though, I wouldn't add this to the thread just yet.
I can't access their product as an end-user, unless I'm missing something on their website...

On the timeline it's mentioned that they will have a pre-launch in August.

There are definitely risks when you're doing face-to-face transactions with someone you've never met yet.
People have already been robbed when meeting up with someone from Localbitcoins.

Of course you can avoid that from happening if you pick a seller/buyer with hundreds of legit good reviews.

I wonder what they mean by 'building a crypto city'? I have nothing against this project, everybody is allowed to do whatever they want in that regard. Unless it's a scam ofc.
That said, I don't think that an ICO will be the end all solution to poverty and world hunger.

I also completely disagree, I know for sure that people would be willing to pay for something like that.
It's the personal aspect of it and the uniqueness of those particular photo's.

You would need some sort of verification system to ensure that your models are who they say they are.
So people won't just get free images from somewhere and pretend to be that person.

Oh no, I just misread it, you did mention to add the extended site link.

Of the sites I've have mentioned, I'm not going to add http://www.resilience.me
It doesn't seem to be updated, while he's also still asking for donations through Indiegogo.

People would still get robbed for their Bitcoins, People would just be threatened to either give up their private keys or to send money to the criminals.
Traders who did in-person trades via Localbitcoins have already been robbed.

Criminals will definitely find a way around getting to your coins.

Okay, you might be right to say that Bitcoin itself is not a bubble.
On the other hand, we've clearly seen that the market was in some sort of speculative bubble, when we saw the prices rise to 20k and subsequently drop to under 10K

If you don't think that's a bubble, you're misguided.

Check the OP again I had already added https://cryptoubi.org/ to the OP at the bottom, under 'Sources + Interesting Links'.
I did some more digging and found out that both websites have basic income projects with the same name. I wonder if they're related in some way.

Check this out:
http://zeropoverty.io/tcup.html
http://kuwa.org/Kuwa-Driven_Basic_Income_Faucet.pdf (also called TCUP)

Could just be a coincidence, I've added them both to the OP.

Thanks for the help!

Edit: I'll go over all the links in https://cryptoubi.org/ seems like there are a few more projects which I haven't added yet.

https://groupincome.org/
http://www.resilience.me
https://www.gooddollar.org/
http://horizon.ngo/

I'm definitely interested, gave you a follow and I'm going to listen to the first one during work tomorrow.
Just checked out the first couple of minutes and it seemed interesting.

I hope that you have some great guests on in the following episodes, that ex JP-Morgan hedge fund manager would be a great start.

Really guys, do you have to quote that image 5 times on the first page of this thread?
Thanks for giving me a sore index finger from all the scrolling.

OP, can you also use the ATM for selling or is it just for buying?

Here in Belgium another ATM was just installed by a shop owner, was publicized by many mainstream news papers.

Over on Steemit, everybody is pretty wild about EOS, the amount of shilling going on there is really something to behold...
Everybody keeps mentioning Dan Larimer's previous successes with Bitshares & Steem, but truth is that he has left those communities.

Luckily people are a bit more skeptical on other platforms.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/eos-block-producers-freeze-user-funds-to-prevent-theft-resulting-in-twitter-backlash

Wayy too centralized for my taste and this makes it very clear that block producers have too much power.

Are you using a Segwit address? Can't imagine that you'd pay that much when you're using segwit.
Would be interested in seeing your transaction hash, because you haven't mentioned the size of the transaction either.

Don't think I've paid more than, say, 0.00005 BTC in fees per transaction since I've been using Segwit.

Why do you keep betting when you literally put everything on the line?
That's straight up addiction when you place stupid bets like that, betting almost an entire months wage.

I'd definitely take some time off and reflect whether you still want to continue gambling after that.

I would personally not invest in something like this, because I find services like this to have the exact opposite effect of what they're intended for.
I see no reason why women wan't just use regular taxi's, sure sometimes you'll have unprofessional, bad taxi drivers, but I don't think that happens all too often.

Initiatives like this create unnecessary divide between men and women, all for something that isn't a widespread issue.

You call that empowerment? Very empowering, to be too scared to take a freaking taxi...

What does your comment have to do with the topic we're discussing?
This is about people losing money at Coinbase, because Coinbase is holding their funds hostage or they were lost due to errors made by Coinbase

This isn't about greed in the slightest and I'm not even sure who you're responding to.

Yeah politics & society would be a good board as well, but I'm fine with leaving it here.
Maybe there just aren't that many people interested in it

Might change in the future though.

So close to having wagered 50 BTC I'll probably reach it within 2 weeks.
Can't wait for that sweet 0.00001740 BTC faucet payout!
