there was a topic a couple of days before about this, i think they are the same people.

unfortunately it is not so popular and seems to me like some random people accepting bitcoin for their videos. i don't think it is going to contribute much to popularity of bitcoin.

and as their post history shows, they posted 29 videos none of them exceeding 5min for less that two months in about 9 months ago and it looks like they gave up on it. nothing impressive if you ask me.

apparently a 28 year old man was mugged last month in New York City.

he wanted to sell his bitcoin in person, when the buyer (which he met on Craigslist) turned out to be a robber and took his coins at gunpoint!

selling bitcoin in person is not safe anymore, next time we should sell out coins in a public place with witnesses present!

you have to increase your bet amount on every bet so that if you whin this bet, it would cover all your previous losses to this bet plus win a profit equal to the original stake

it is usually a 2x increase but if you have different odds, you can increase by different factor just to cover the loss plus profit.

but keep in mind that in order to win using martingale strategy you have to have unlimited funds, otherwise you are going to lose are your investment.

i am not a fan of faucets in general, because the amount you can earn from a faucet on your own (although matches the work you do) is so low that doesn't worth going back for. and if you want to get refferals it requires a lot of work to advertise and get refferals which is a lot of work.

when i started with bitcoin i used many faucets, i only liked the ones that paid more.
the ones that i found interesting are moonbitcoin because it accumulates over time and you can claim whenever you want.
freebitcoin since it always was the highest consistent paying faucet and the multiplier section is a nice feature.
and the alienfaucet groups is a good paying and growing faucet these days.

if you are referring to "free transactions", it needs to meet all the three conditions to be considered as high priority and don't need the fee:
1) It is smaller than 1,000 bytes.
2) All outputs are 0.01 BTC or larger.
3) Its priority is large enough (above 57,600,000)
this transaction doesn't need any fee to be included in a block.

on the other hand including fees are optional. but remember that miners might not include transactions with 0 or non standard fees in the block witch will result in your transaction to never be confirmed.

i agree. everybody has to start from somewhere. trading is not easy and learning it is not a walk in the park either. but it is not immpossible to get the hang of it.
it needs some time and work but the the skills necessary for it is achievable over time.
the thing is, the time you spend trading and learning it will make you more money than visiting a faucet can do.

if your blockchain.info wallet is compromised or even if you think it was, getting your privatekeys and importing them is not a good idea. since the hacker can have access to them.
but if you want it is under import/export section.

besides if you have 2FA enabled even if the hacker has your wallet identifier and your password, there is no way he can access your wallet without having the 2FA password, or also having access to your phone or Email where you receive your 2FA password.

the important thing to remember is to keep the pc that has your wallet on, offline and never connect it to internet.
what i like to do, in order to secure my coins is to create an offline electrum wallet.
here a step by step guide that i bookmarked some time ago:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=853288.0

there was another topic here that might interest you to take a look at:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1051431.0

but to answer your question.
1. the thing that is most important for me is that i can open the website easily on my phone as easily as i do on my pc. also the betting speed is important for me too.

2. because i mostly do automatic betting, i want a good bot with necessary options that lets me bet the way i want and it acts fast.

3. the last thing is the deposit and withdrawal speed. i want to wait the least amount of time whenever i do any deposits to play or when i withdraw my coins from it.

the problem is, if you start really small - that is starting from 0.00000001 BTC - and start betting, your winnings will not be of any significance.

for example you will win after 5-6 times or even the first time and the amount you win is going to be less than 100 satoshi every time. so the accumulated amount is nothing.

besides you only need 24 loses (if i am not mistaken) to go bankrupt and lose everything. which means you worked so many hours for 100 satoshi wins and lost 1 btc.

while i agree that there is currently a lot of good opportunities in altcoin market so there is a lot of profit to be made, i don't agree with the whole bitcoin dying or the fact that you should leave it.
altcoins has only one purpose and that is to be pumped and give some people good profit!

i have seen a lot of other suggestions like this before, all about litecoin is going to go to the moon. but it never revives from its dying course.

sometimes a little pump comes along and lifts the price a tiny bit, but afterwards litecoin collapses back, and continues dying again.

people aren't interested enough in litecoin and it doesn't really offer anything better to attract them either.
besides i think if bitcoin crashes litecoin will crash too.

i think there aren't many people who are in the first category who think bitcoin must be a scam. maybe at first, when bitcoin was introduced many people thought this way but not nowadays. but many might be think that bitcoin is being used "To Scam" or illegal activities. like terrorist activities or ransom in bitcoin.

the second group which i am a part of who thinks bitcoin is an interesting technological developments, unfortunately consist of an small portion of the bitcoin users.

the rest have little idea what is going on, many use it to buy, gamble,... many just earn it mining, advertising, signature camp. but doesn't care about the technology behind it.

i doubt that sex would gain mainstream approval. but it is a good way to increase the popularity of bitcoin.

the whole anonymity of bitcoin transactions is a good way for people to watch porn, and for them to earn some money this way.

circle giving away $5 to promote their services is not necessarily a bad thing. they have to attract attention somehow. there were a lot of other services that started this way.

if i am not mistaken, paypal was giving away something like $1 at the beginning of its work, too.

the effect of bitcointalk on bitcoin can not be denied. there are a lot of new people who come here everyday to learn more about bitcoin and get involved.

also there are a lot of businesses running here. different goods and digital goods are being sold here. all the different coins official announcements are here.

but if it goes down for good, it would be a tragedy but it is not the end of the world. all of this would be distributed between other forums until one of them becomes popular.

if you have a couple of thousands bitcoin and you publicly announce it you might get mugged. but robbers don't know what bitcoin is or who has what to target them.

how can a robber know that you have bitcoin to target you and force you to reveal your keys?!

because everybody has tried Martingale method at least once in their gambling journey. and when you use a method you can learn it's weaknesses and decide about how to use it.

when you use this method, you will always lose at some point and that loosing will be hard enough that will cause you to decide that it is enough martingale for me.

it has nothing to do with your mind your what you plan, even if you don't play many times, you will lose at some point and give up afterwards.

bitcoin is going to undergo some changes if it has to survive for that long for sure. maybe by then we can see a couple of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin which are being used worldwide by different countries.
but one thing is for sure and that is the technology that it brought will never die and will develop over the years.

balloons that are sent up in the stratosphere are usually used for weather studies and reports. why does a bitcoin related balloon is sent up there?
