Some people are gambling when sitting in the office, trust me on that.


Not only because of that gambling can be wrong. Actually you've mentioned a rare case. Mostly gambling is wrong when someone becomes addicted to it and loses money or time or both to to this activity.

I think by "betting" he means sports betting and by "gambling" any kind of other gambling: dice, poker, slots etc.

But I think in terms of an opportunity to make money with either it is indeed the same, meaning you have no chances to succeed. I propose to OP to gamble for fun only, not hoping to make money with it.

I think it will be great opportunity for freelancers. Although I study at University right now I would probably want to sell some services for Bitcoins. At least I would like to try. Pity that the new Rein version 0.3.0 beta is not newbie friendly so far. So I guess I have to wait a bit.

It doesn't seem like it had any impact on the price of BTC. At least no negative impact can be observed. Bitcoin's price is at $1,092 right now and this is close to the highest level in this year. But on the other hand we can't say that Bitcoin price rised a lot after the Chinese exchanges stopped withdrawals. So I don't think after they comeback we'll see a significant change.

That was a good suggestion I was going to make it myself. Also adding chat would be nice.

I've been playing again on this site today, via Tor browser. This time I wasn't so lucky, lost 36 units today and now i have only 63 units left.

Haha. While I was writing this I was playing on the site and BOOM!

So now I have 96 units. 

I don't know about those times when only a few people knew about Bitcoin, but I think it wasn't free ever. Yes, it was easy to mine at first, but even then you were to make some efforts to get your BTC.

Generally when I see a word "free" it's either a lie or it is referred to some kind of garbage. Bitcoin is not garbage, so it isn't free and never was.

I think he made a logical mistake. Indeed what he described was applying analysis to the dice game. But I disagree with you that that analysis really can help to win in a dice game. Sometimes we get a long losing streak right in the beginning and we lose all our balance right away without winning anything, and nobody is immune to that.

I'm not running a faucet myself, but just today I checked that freebitco.in transfered over 0.13 BTC, and that's for one week only, to their users. I think it's profitable if they are doing this for years already.

I think the amount of your initial investment depends mostly on how much your faucet will be giving and on how many users you will have. The more users the more you have to pay, but on the other hand you can make money on ads on your site if you have a lot of daily visitors.

So you mean now you can just save in BTC and then leave it to your kids? Well, if the government will not find a way to tax Bitcoin savings you are right. But actually I think they will. They are smart bastards, especially in that regard. What your kids can do in that case is to hide from the government what they inherited, with Bitcoin it would be easy to do. But I believe it is a crime, if I'm not mistaken.

I don't believe in mystical things either but when it comes to gambling people tend to start noticing that for example if the light in the room is on - they are losing and if the light in the room is out - they are winning. I don't know how to explain those things but they've been reported for centuries.

For example for me it's my mood. Although I know that the result of a bet doesn't depend on the the mood of the player, I'm trying to not gamble when I'm in a bad mood because I always lose when I'm feeling bad.

Yeah, I think I had two browsers opened, Tor and Google Chrome, with your site in each, so that was my bad.

I really love playing on this site. Now my balance is 0.00106320 btc. I've won 0.00056320 with just 12 rolls.

Actually there is not a sentence in that article stating that Bitcoin is bad or that Bitcoin is to blame for the widespread piracy of digital content. Pirate parties encourage piracy in the first place, so even if Bitcoin was to blame for that they wouldn't consider it a "Negative Side". IMO the title is just wrong.

I'm wondering who are those 2 people who have voted for "Yes - please accept my condolences." Bitcoin right now is more alive than ever and its price in USD only proves that.

IMO Washington Post is not the place where to look for reliable information. Forbes and Financial Times are much better in that regard.

I think I first heard about Bitcoin from my father who's a journalist when he was writing an article on the Silk Road bust. Unfortunately I didn't start to take Bitcoin seriously right away. It took years to understand that it's impossible to ignore Bitcoin in the modern world. Now I'm glad that at least from the Summer 2016 I've been taking it more seriously.

I think it's just a game and like any other game it helps you to take mind off things, for awhile at least. Сonsider gamling like this and you'll be enjoying it instead of losing with it and hating it for that.

I was given 0.00050000 btc (50 betting units) to check how the site works. Here’s my review:

When I visited the site for the first time I've accessed it without Tor, simply by adding .to at the end of the .onion url like user piloder suggested in this thread.

But this time I’ve downloaded the Tor Browser and accessed the site through it.
My first bet was with 1 unit on 2 (Odds 35:1, Payout x34.650)
After hitting the ROLL button I got this message “Error! You can't access the play page unless you are logged in.” although I was Logged in.
Then I tried to make bets with other odds, but the result was always the same: “Error! You can't access the play page unless you are logged in.”

Then I logged out and logged in again.
I placed a bet with 1 unit on 2 (Odds 35:1, Payout x34.650) and … it has started working!
After losing 2 times in row fortune smiled upon me and I've won 0.00034650 btc!!!
Then I tried to play with other odds, 5:1, Payout x4.950. And after losing 2 times in row I’ve won again! This time 0.00004950 btc.

Overall it’s a great site IMO. Now I have 0.00085600 btc (85 betting units) on my Balance and I'm going to play there again when I have more time.

Good idea, but how could this work if everyone has Google? In "one to be millioner" game the whole point is that they can't use Google, right? Probably we should think on how to improve this idea. We should think on questions that can't be googled.

I don't think that's possible. The thing is we can't trust each other and that's the main reason why we actually can't manipulate the Bitcoin price. If say we all agreed to not sell under $1,000 how can we controll that no one from us is breaking the agreement?

No, I don't think that the OP has been drinking. 

I've chosen 2022 10k btc because I really think it's possible. Will that be boring is another question though. I think we all be glad to see Bitcoin at that level and actually it will be fun.

Wow! It looks like you are constantly winning. Is this true? If yes, you are very lucky gambler then. Can you tell please how much have you won in total?

If I win I just play with it and lose it eventually. That's why I never deposit much.
