You can include your site URL on the OP and ask for recommendations. Community feedback will always be a important coz it's your potential clients/users.
Many services who accept community suggestions and take criticism always stands longer than any other, well, "bussiness focused, but people centric"
You can call it pre-launch promotion just like posted above,
2082  Economy / Gambling / Re: Coinballer - An open-source multi-player Bitcoin gambling game. on: January 08, 2023, 10:57:25 PM
This will be more on testing, user experience than a review.

First impression: the site is so simple yet confusing. People will get puzzled, what is Coinballer? Because the first page or home page doesn't look like the site is a game or gambling. I need to access the About page first but no help for what is the game is all about.

Rules Page
The rules is something lacking and still confusing, a step by step of How-to start a game or how the game works with images or videos will be good addition.

New game page
Errors should be emphasized like having a red font color or background color is better.

About page
About page should explain and define what is Coinballer, what is the game is all about, the advantage of playing on the site, the difference of coinballer to other gambling site, etc.

Again, i will ask to add these pages as i still cannot see it on the site, such as Terms, Privacy policy, Faqs, Contact (optional), as these pages are important and some question and doubts should be catered.

Gameplay
Asking someone's wallet ddress before creating a game is a backward move for me, this will take time and realization of why should i play with user xxx if he can beat my ass since i only have this xxx bitcoin. Lol.
But this also prove how relentless someone is when the game started (when participants deposits)

The waiting of x confirmations always be setback when sending bitcoin, currently, waiting 5 block confirmation from 6 is still a long time to wait. Many gambling sites offers a 1 confirmation time deposit already. Implementation of lightning will be a good addition too, like giving option for lightning wallet to users other than the native wallet address.

I don't like the idea of sending the same amount of pot to the >1 winners, when the fact that you deposit the most (well, i deposit the most in game 21  Grin). There should be a ratio of amount for the highest bidder, to the lowest if there are >1 winners.

Conclusion
The idea of the game is unique, this prove how blockchain can be used such game/gambling like the lottery of guessing the end digit of a block.
But the game is not really fun for me, its indeed time consuming when more gamblers like the instant results except for sportsbetting. Well, considering this is based on bitcoin blocks, so users should understand about this game first before proceeding.

Lastly, for those users of "first impression last" updating the UI to modern look should be prioritize.
2083  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcointalk table formatting issues on: January 07, 2023, 10:59:46 PM
Why not use hr tag? But don't include it inside the tr or td tag or it will be limited like that on your screenshot. Which i guess is the issue when using a table. It has limits especially if you are only using a few tr td tags
Code:
[hr]


Just like this below, and it looks fine imo.
Code:

For obvious reasons, as you are very active here, i will assume that you already know these casinos who have signature campaigns here so there's no need to mention them including my signature (Coinplay). Upon checking google I found this site/blog[1] list of casinos who are accepting bitcoin, there are lot of them including those who have good and bad reputation in this forum. But i found these list below as worth mentioning for this "real" crypto casinos you are looking

- https://duckdice.io/
- https://crypto.games/

Never tried duckdice, but both of them have ANN thread here.

2085  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [Poll] What are the safest platforms? on: January 07, 2023, 05:22:15 PM
I'm currently and only using kucoin, it's the only exchange that i'm using beside the local one in my country.
Well, there's no kyc requirements there, at least for now, so I can say i'm trusting them for exchanging purpose. Note that i'm not holding my funds there, i just use it for its purpose, all is stored in my custodial wallet.
It's the same in every top exchange — only use it for its purpose, to exchange not to hold and alternative for wallet.
2086  Other / Meta / Re: Can not quote to a post on: January 07, 2023, 04:40:34 AM
You probably ignored the altcoin discussion board that's why it says " is no longer viewable by you."
As i can quote the post after checking this thread but when i tried to ignored the board, i encounter the same message you posted.
Although, i think the "is no longer viewable by you." should be changed because you can literally view the thread as you can access it.

“Due to uncertainty with our crypto partner, we have taken preemptive action in the interest of our customers,” it wrote, adding it’s also actively reaching out to customers to ask them to self-custody.
This is very unfortunate, closing their business because of too much relying on its partner due to its uncertainty of whatever reasons it is. We're just talking a single partner here that cost too much (closing) for the business.
Well, good thing they care to their users and announce before its doom.
2088  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Coin_trader slot experiment to determine my luck on: January 04, 2023, 11:21:07 PM
The same experience to mine on playing dice, but mine is once in a week or after 5-6 days of inactivity then play again after. I don't know if this in their algo or just pure coincidence but with the same statement from other users, im starting to wonder why, lol.

- watching this threads for OP's updates.
2089  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Fryx Finance - An open-source Monero/Bitcoin exchange with %0 trading fees. on: January 04, 2023, 10:47:05 PM
I see that you need to add many things to the exchange, for example the price of Bitcoin and Monero because it is constantly changing as you know, also it would be good to add price charts.
It would also be nice to add the possibility to connect the hard wallet and make the exchange with the wallet directly.

Your site is currently not like a decentralized exchange, and it is not like a P2p exchange either.
As mentioned above, OP wants more the integration of its platform to get used as a partnered exchange other than to get used as an actual exchange. So these features are not necessary.
For the time being, more information on the website on How-to to get things done is the most important. Also, making it more looking descent i mean your UI can attract partners. Of course, the most important is functionality of being as a partnered exchange.
2090  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: I'm starting an exchange | Need some help with features/ideas on: January 04, 2023, 10:28:02 PM
So this is just another instant exchange? Do you require KYC? Doe fees varies from coins to coins, OR just depends on you, OR it depends on the partner exchange?

KYC and fees are the ones that concern users why they choose to use an instant exchange instead on traditional cex, so what your take on this.

Btw being an open source is a good decision too. Also, welcome to the forum.

And what if I want to send from another wallet? Am I excluded because only 1 of my wallets are registered or not?
It's a good question, but unfortunately the instructions are incomplete, so I'm not sure if the address the funds are sent from matters or not. It's possible that it doesn't matter, but without more information, it's hard to say for certain. The only way to know for sure might be to try it and see what happens.
It does not matter if i understand correctly, since the winner will be identified on what betting address has the most balance in the end on the set block.
So anyone can send btc on the betting address and winner will receive all the sent btc from all of the betting address (or from anywhere else) minus the host fee to the winners payout address.
This is all assuming since there's no rules mentioning that its not allowed.
2092  Other / Archival / Re: What casinos are safe on: January 03, 2023, 11:26:48 PM
For me, the safe casinos in crypto gambling are the only ones you can find here in this forum that ran signature campaigns, especially those that are still active today
Not necessarily. Many crypto companies used to promote their services on this forum via signature campaigns then they exit scammed. Some still have an active sig campaign although we all know they are scammers. If you are going to rely on this then better judge based on the person managing the campaign, if he is a reputable member and an experienced manager then chances are low that he would accept to cooperate with a scam company/project.
I bet he is referring to those campaign who are still active today from running a long time. And yes, managers has a lot to do with it, reputed managers temporary stop or just end the campaign when there is a huge scam accusation against the advertised company.
But users experience and current reputation of a casino should be the one that future users should see and check to avoid inconvenience and future problem.

So cloud mining is still a thing, ha. I wonder users from this forum will still be interested on such stuff. Especially for genesis mining which is obviously a waste of time. Never had an ROI there even for how many months of waiting. Probably only those who can refer other users is the only thing you can make an ROI.
2095  Other / Meta / Re: Theymos is living the high life; BitcoinTalk is inaccessible without JavaScript on: January 03, 2023, 01:05:03 PM
I'm not sure why you need CloudFlare when the profit from advertising is more than enough to rent entire serve racks.  Is BitcoinTalk's revenue being siphoned off?
That would also not surprise me.
The implementation[1] of cloudflare is to fight with DDoS, that's why javascript is required, besides the forum doesn't serve ads anymore.
Also, read the reasons on the linked thread why he implemented cloudflare even though he hates it, also the reason why he didnt implement/maintain forum's own ddos protection.

First of all, as it is a service thread, there might be a few negative comments and you may delete that negative comments. Why you posted such a self-moderated topic?
It’s to prevent off-topic replies. If there was any negative feedback we would do everything to resolve them instead of deleting them. As you may know, you can also see all deleted messages in history. This topic has no deleted messages.

Honestly, self-moderated topic is not a big deal now it was made for a reason. Deleted replies can be seen on the ninjastic.space's archive[1], anyone who has an issue regarding of deleted replies on specific thread can create a separate thread on reputation board or even on scam accusation.

2098  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Old phone as cold storage? on: January 02, 2023, 11:56:02 PM
I guess this is much better than a hot wallet but still not as secure as true cold storage such as Electrum on an air-gapped PC.
Well, all DIY-made stuffs have always its cons. But an unused, updated android patch security, stock rom, and using it while in safe mode android phones is a bit good option for a cold storage stuff (or if there's a alternate word/term for it than using cold-storage) and better than other web/hot wallets out there.
2099  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Tips: encourage your customers to pay with bitcoin on: January 02, 2023, 11:02:23 PM
  • Offer a discount for customers who pay with Bitcoin. This could be a percentage off their purchase, or a fixed amount if they use Bitcoin to pay.
I don't know how much discount you can offer to still remain relevant and gainish in the market. We don't because we want to accept bitcoin and run into losses.
Instead of giving discount to people paying with Bitcoin, you can opt to take care of the transaction fee which could be the reason some people will avoid paying with bitcoin, especially people paying from exchanges.
Indeed, despite of being mentioned already about lightning implementation for a business accepting bitcoin payments, OP  still not adding lightning in the OP while talking on how members can suggest to improve the main post.

Taking a 30%-40% profit margin from a product will not harm the business if it only provides a 10% discount for bitcoin payments.
Where did you get these numbers? Have you tried to run a business?
Most retails only profits for 10% or even lesser for every product, for restaurants 20% profit is already high for every food they sell. Giving 10% discount will hurt the business despite of making an initiative for bitcoin implementation.

You may give discounts only for old stocks, near expiry, products that were not sold for longer time. The rest will only give you bad result than good.

Most people knows bitcoin already. At the time like this, in customer's point of view, i will hold my bitcoin instead of using it for purchase.
For a business, making a "we accept bitcoin (/lightning) payment" sign with a QR code either in a paper or digital screen is enough to encourage customers to pay with bitcoin if they want to, others are not necessary, discounts are just optional.

Since it was an .exe file, did you happen to installed the .exe file? Or open it? If not, good, try to delete the file (shift+delete) and full scan your computer with an anti-virus.
If it was unfortunately installed, try to uninstall it on your program list, although i dont know if its enough but do it asap, full scan your AV and do things that is recommended by your AV, or the least i could think is to reset your pc.
