By the looks of it, the DT members disapprove of this practice, and your trust just took a hammering. How could you not predict that this would happen? In any case, do you actually think 26 merits would be worth $50? Merits.... $50? Doesn't compute.

If people really wanted merit, they would post highly quality material here on the forum, the merit sources aren't exactly stingy with their sMerit. If you post something worthy, you'll be merited. Anybody receiving merit suspiciously (e.g. indicating it has been purchased) is likely to take a hammer just like you.

Why would anybody give you a $200 loan, with $125 in collateral? Does that really seem reasonable to you?

It genuinely disturbs me when I see such disgraceful logic.
Why is that disgraceful logic its called collateral???
Thats what I have They dont accept websites they and other then the 125 I dont have
anything elese to give...look I found a new coin on a certain exchange and i know that its going up about 50%
Thats what i want the bitcoin for thats why i need it asap
im not going to mention the coin nor the exchange because i found a trick that i think someof us know
about here when a new coin goes on an exchange it shoots then it bloops thats why i need the $200 in
bitcoins

It is disgraceful logic because the collateral is worth less than the loan. Collateral is supposed to protect the lending party against risk. Obviously collateral that does not cover the full loan amount, hence it does not protect them.

Since you asked for it, click the link, it will bring you to the post of Vod and it will educate you on what are the accepted collaterals in this forum, same with what is not accepted https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=577765.msg6311902#msg6311902 if you don't have any of those mentioned in the list, close the thread, theres zero chance that you'll get any from lenders.
I hate vod but thanks

1865  Other / Off-topic / What are your favourite theory/paradox? (Preferably scientific). on: January 31, 2018, 02:36:35 PM
Bored, so let's share our favourite scientific theories, or even your favourite hoaxes, logical deductions or anything else along the same vein, even if they are completely ridiculous. Heck, even share your favourite TV show theories if the show is widely known.

I'll start.

The one electron universe is a theory whereby John Wheeler proposed that there exists only a single electron in the universe, that propagates itself through space-time in such a way as to appear in multiple places at once.

The One Electron Universe

Another interesting one is the curious case of potential retrocausality in the modified double slit experiment (the delayed choice quantum eraser). This experiment appears to demonstrate information travelling backwards through time to influence the initial conditions of the experiment.

The Delayed Choice Experiment

I'll finish off OP with another interesting one, the variable speed of light hypothesis posits that the speed of c, typically thought of as constant (in vacuum) throughout the universe, may actually be variable. Potentially having ramifications for interstellar travel and more.

VSOL - Variable Speed of Light

Bonus reading;

The Ship of Theseus
Bootstrapping information

For those still reading, a wizard once told me the bearer of captivating theories is paid in merit. Whatever that means.

Lmao, this is the first I've seen someone offering a cam show as interest.

On topic, I can fill this loan under the following conditions;

1. Interest with be 1% per month
2. If bitcoin drops to under 105% of loan amount in value, then I can sell it to recoup my money.
3. You can sell your cam show to somebody else.

These terms would've worked for me, but you're unfortunately not trusted enough. If you can arrange for escrow with a trusted member, then I'm game

Escrow fee and the two transactions fees required to get the money to and from escrow make it not worth it for me.

Good luck with your endeavour.

What do you think about this escrow service? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2724325.msg27877712#msg27877712

I don't mind paying the fee for him. Provided you could increase the loaned amount to $600

Would you also be increasing the amount of collateral?

How much is the fee? Maybe Vod would escrow for you?

I believe God exists simple it because we exists in this world.

Wow, you clearly have a beautiful mind. Your poise, the way you frame your sentence(s)... It's exquisite. Your ability to convey such depth in so few words is remarkable. Truly, if I can become just half the man you are, I'll die proud.

"So only 9,09% profit for an investor?"

The expected ROI would probably be about 2 to 3% per day, but because of variance it is impossible to say what will happen. The actual result could easily be anywhere between +20% to -20% on any given day, although those would be relatively extreme results. This is an investment that has the potential to snowball as well because as I win I can continue to move up in limits and play for higher stakes.

You still haven't addressed the issue of why you don't have your own bankroll by now, if you've been playing for a while and claim you're good.
1876  Economy / Lending / Re: seeking .043 btc investment for poker bankroll on: January 30, 2018, 01:10:04 PM
Or you could just lose it all like you've been doing since 2016. If you're a winning player, how have you not amassed a sizable bankroll by now? Bankroll management is one of the fundamental aspects of being a professional poker player.

Truth. I have a friend who is a professional poker player, he racks up $1-5k per week, mostly playing $1/$2 tables. If you haven't racked up your own bankroll by now, you can't be that good, especially playing low stakes where there are a ton of donkeys.

I like the idea of Elon Musk's Universe Simulation, where the Universe is just a compute program/game, developed by a post-human civilization. This seems legit to me, especially taking into account that the humanity itself is able to simulate universes with the help of computer.

That definitely wasn't Musk's idea, the simulation hypothesis has been around for decades.

If it's a low value I'd be happy to escrow for you, alternatively you can try Atriz, he is usually online most of the time.

I'm a Scientist, have been for most of my life. I have NEVER believed in a supreme being, despite going to Catholic schools my entire life.

I'd like to know.... What is it that compels you to believe in God? How can you argue for his existence? Please bare the following in mind when you answer;

1. There are literally thousands of religions, each of which has members that believe just as firmly as you do, they say they feel a personal connection with God, they have their own religious books and doctrines etc, if you were born in Saudi Arabia, you would be a muslim, in Ireland you would be a protestant, seems like the place you are born denotes your religion, rather than divine intervention. Obviously you can't all be right, so how do you know YOU are.

2. Most religions state that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving, all-present and eternal. If this is the case, why are people punished for sins by an all loving God, who predestined them to commit their sins by knowing the future? Why is there bone cancer in Children, and insects that burrow into the eyes of infants making them blind, could an all loving God not have imagined a reality without this? And why is there such overwhelming evidence AGAINST the existence of a creator?

3. Since the scientific era God has slowly receded into the shadows, God used to be held responsible for most things, e.g. people offered sacrifices for good health, prayed for rain, thought that God pulled the sun across the sky, created plagues etc. Now we know he does none of these, and God has been reduced to a "God of the gaps" whereby he is still attributed to things we cannot yet explain with science, doesn't seem very powerful anymore.

I'll try to respond to the major points in this thread attempting to dismantle them.

My best example is the book of life or our DNA. Our dna is composed of billions of instructions that commands how you will look like, hair color, eyes, shape of face, height and many more. Its so detailed that it cant be possibly made from accident, or just happened over the course of time. For example a book will not just fall from the sky and form its letters, shapes, color and compose comprehensible words in english or any other language. If you think that's possible you're silly. In the end just ask yourself this, can nothing create something? or can something come out of nothingness? There always will be a greater force than all of us, than all of the universe that made everything happen.

You say can nothing create something, and yet you ignore the fact that your God must have come from nothing.

Your reasoning is fatally flawed, humans evolved by sequential adaptation, like a stacking process of adding and remove pieces of an organic puzzle. Over millions of years this process leads to complex systems such as humans, yes, this process is remarkably unlikely to occur, nobody denies that. But there are also trillions of worlds in the universe which did NOT undergo these steps, we are, as far as we know alone in the universe. Of course, the fact that we exist allows us to perceive ourselves, it allows us to acknowledge our own rarity. However, do not mistake that for evidence of a creator, that is a bias of reason, to assume we are created, is to assume all those other planets were left barren by that same creator.
