The introduction of new play panel is quite a relief as those "hook stuffs" were actually standing in the way of most players, nice to see that Dicebot works good with this site and the speed so far have remained quite impressive.

@ Ethan_nx, I would want to set autobetter to be able to increase previous bet by a certain percentage, how should I go about that?
Your last question should be pretty easy for you to implement.
The team who develops the site has made it very clear in knowing how to modify things around the site.
It might be the particular browser you are using. Try using another one to see if you can see the applet appear for what you are looking to change.
You can already do that.  The functionality of the autobetter is the same, plus more features.  All we did was make it easier to use.  Click Enable Actions, then on the On Lose section, click the + button, then do Multiply By and convert your % increase to a multiplier.  In other words, let's say you want to increase your bet by 10% on Loss, you would put 1.10 as the multiplier in the On Lose Multiply By section.
Thanks Kiritsugu for the concise explanation, that conversion was what was missing out in my settings as such the multiplier effect wasn't working out until now. All the same, good to have Seuntjie's dicebot already integrated with this site, so that other possibilities not featured in the autobetter can also be implemented.

Instead of holding it is better to short trade and then rebuy again at dumps. That way you profit without even risking to have not even a little bitcoin on your wallet. It will also ensure that you won't get tired of waiting since you profit from what you hold then you sell it and rebuy it at dumps. Also you can get better profit I think by doing this every time there was a price movement.
That's why people are trading and hodling at the same time. It will guarantee that a part of your coins are being put to work, while the other part is stored for the long term.

I just don't understand why people always force themselves to do one thing, while in fact they can do both hodling and trading at the same time. Just think and act smart. Never limit yourself.
I think you got a point there in hodling  part of your coins and trading the rest. In the long run it stands to bring in more coins that would have ordinarily been possible with just hodling. One thing though is that some experience and skills would be necessary, otherwise panicking and untimely sell-off would be rubbing off the gains.
2305  Economy / Speculation / Re: Disaproved on: March 11, 2017, 09:23:26 AM
$700 a coin HERE WE COME!

Nice smart recovery. Looks like we are going to stay at 4 digits, even after the ETF got rejected.
We are at $1130 now, and it is not too different from where we were a week back.
It is so interesting to note that bitcoiners have so much faith in Bitcoin and held on to their coins inspite of the ETF disapproval. The much talked about sell-off, dump and even outright death of Bitcoin should the ETF fail is now like the millennium bug. As I write, Bitcoin is back at  $1,191.83 at Coindesk, everyone fasten your seat belts for some cruise Grin

There is no chance to buy bitcoin under 1,000$  Do not say $800. it's just a day dream. the prediction is at 1,500$ in May, 2017 and it could hit 2,000$ at the end of 2017.

If there is no approval of the ETF, the price might drop below $1000 for short period.
Bitcoin is indeed maturing and I think its decentralized nature is beginning to hold sway as can be seen from its resilenceeven after the ETF disapproval. One of the worries was that people were going to panic and dump Bitcoin, but it was all water poured on the back of a duck. $1200 is in view one more time and Bitcoin goes on even without SEC.

Isn't it laughable that one of the commentators argument against the ETF was that Bitcoin is characterized by extreme hoarding and low liquidity Grin  Guess someone should tell him, we're going to hoard it even the more until it value docks on the moon.
2307  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it profitable to run a Bitcoin faucet in 2017 on: March 11, 2017, 08:30:39 AM
Crypto currency is now very interesting to many people and so I think that this will be interesting to many. But you need to attract many advertisers to your site. And clients
You don't really need to attract advertisers, you can just pick and choose whatever advertisings you want, unless you want to make specific deals for your faucet.

I'm guessing that some advertising networks aren't compatible with faucets, because they're against their TOS, but you'll still have many to choose from.
Faucet was booming awhile ago, when Google Adsense looked the other way, but these days, they have been read the riot act and fauceting is seen as incentivized traffic. For same reason, the network sites that tolerate faucets, pay very little thus making faucet owners hardly able to offer rewards that could engage people and not see it as waste of time.

To generate extra revenue, you may want to consider promoting your own affiliate links from programs with potentials, the very popular ones are likely to be saturated already.

If the deposit and withdrawal processes for a Casino is smooth, and it is provably fair, then there is no need for them to scam your money... your money will eventually be theirs.
You are indeed on spot, they certainly have good business prospects by putting their feet down and running their business as professionally as possible, the edge is already to their favor and of a certainty most players would without sweat, hand over their money to them.
2309  Economy / Gambling / Re: Primedice | Most Popular & Trusted | Huge Community | Free BTC on: March 11, 2017, 07:27:34 AM
Due to huge fees that bitcoin needs at this moment we had to raise minimum withdrawal amount to 0.004 btc and fee to 0.0003 btc.

We were covering majority of the fee needed and it cost us substantial amount of money every day.


Minimum withdrawal is 0.004 btc and fee is 0.0003 btc.  
Fiiiiinally they increase that dirt-cheap fee.

Minimum withdrawal to 0.004 btc is quite a good move to stop faucet abusers and that 0.0003btc as transaction fee is good for faster confirmation. Good move stunna.
In view of developments in the Bitcoin network, minimum withdrawal of 0.004BTC and fee of 0.0003BTC is still reasonable, but giving players a number of options on how much fee to pay would be better off. However, I think a more proactive move to ease the pressure would be to incorporate few other coins and an internal exchange system.

Would have been surprised if it were the other way round - imagine asking the authorities to put their stamp on Bitcoin. They don't dislike Bitcoin for nothing, it is actually a threat to their survival and relevance and I don't see them undoing themselves.

Why do you think they waited so long to say "No"?
They were simply being cautious, Bitcoin's core attributes are not something one can easily overlook and evidently it was a struggle for them to reach the decision to disapprove the ETF. The aftermath of the rejection is that Bitcoin is now set to get even stronger, because their chief reason for saying no is actually the bedrock of our faith in Bitcoin - it is unapologetically unregulated!

2312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In what situation would Bitcoin die? on: March 10, 2017, 06:21:37 PM
How and why would the end of bitcoin (and any other cryptocurrency) occur? Value decrease? Legality issues? Different technology/ideas to supersede it?

if there are no more investors in bitcoins, if they doesnt interested anymore.if new cryptpcurrency has a great value more than the bitcoin has. and if the internet connection fails.
How are those iffy situations you cited ever going to materialize? Which investors do you know that are presently sustaining Bitcoin and given all the good attributes of Bitcoin, what exactly do you think is capable of making everyone lose interest in Bitcoin? So far we are yet to see that new coin that will kill Bitcoin, because everything so far took a cue from Bitcoin, so until that new coin arrives, that is not an issue for now. Again how would internet connection fail globally, when situation like that was the main reason behind the invention of the internet?

As it stands, the one thing that has the potential of killing Bitcoin is inside Bitcoin itself and it is the lack of one voice on many solvable issues that are beginning to snowball. The size of the blockchain is one of them and so also is the regrettable delays in transaction.
2313  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Difference between Bitcoin and real money? on: March 10, 2017, 12:12:27 PM
Bitcoin is a store of value because it can operate without government.
Money don't.
You are thinking in fiat not in money, money used to be independent of governments, anyone with gold and silver could create their own coins out of those materials, but then the governments decided they were not trustable and created for themselves the monopoly of coinage, with the terrible consequences that has carried out.
Actually the government is just trying to protect their country's economy, what do you think will happen if a foreigner enters the country with a lot of gold and silver and decided to buy everything in that country? Of course it would be disastrous it will be a country owned by a foreigner who can control everything in it. Also a currency of a country os a reflection on how they are doing economically it is their indicator of success.
There were laws against that, at least in my country, a foreigner could no own property or any business, they could invest but they could not become the investor with the most shares in a company and foreigners as a whole could not own more than 49% of a company but those laws have been derogated.
Reality is that you don't protect your economy or currency by shielding it from others! That is like over pampering a baby and we can see an example in China's economy where every now and then the government must have to intervene by pumping in money (blood transfusion) to save it from anemia. Your country had better wake up from its slumber, if at all it plans to make some progress because true progress is not possible without the inputs of foreigner. Healthy competition is always what makes the difference, the automobile industry in America should yell you better.
2314  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: March 10, 2017, 09:32:05 AM
I wouldn't say that the Bitcoin has no competition because there are some people who like to use other currencies over the Bitcoin.
But the Bitcoin does have a major lead in popularity and worth ahead of the other currencies.
The competition is only with fiat but in crypto world, bitcoin is obviously leading them all and if bitcoin will continue to succeed the crypto market will also progress as a whole. For now we should be thinking that bitocin and fiat are different and if we compare it with bitcoin, we know already that bitcoin is nothing compared to fiat which is most widely use in this world.

I don't think so. Supposed that bitcoins skyrocketed to $10K because of mass adoption and all. I don't see why would that success will be the success of other cryptos as well. What I'm saying is that a dump coin will continue to be a dump coin regardless of bitcoin's success. At the time bitcoin is having some real success, there would be new coins coming in but the old coins will continue to be what they are unless someone picks it up and hype it up which is very unlikely to happen.

Just think of it as the success of an individual doesn't correlates to other people's success. I can become successful but other people won't get successful too just because I am.
It is obvious the real competition Bitcoin is having is with the fiat currencies and that's the real threat the governments see in Bitcoin and not all those "use for illegal this and that." As for the altcoins, they are all copies and descendants of Bitcoin and so far we are yet to see anyone that a match for Bitcoin. Some of them however have some high points and so enjoys the ride the success of Bitcoin brings to the crypto industry, while a good number should be resident in the trash.
2315  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How is trading *not* gambling? on: March 10, 2017, 09:15:31 AM
We can't deny that trading is also part of gambling because i know in gambling, you need to risk an amount or part of your own money to get something more and that was also applied in trading. Trading requires money and you need to risk your own money in order to earn more just like gambling sites does.
Actually with some approach to trading, it becomes quite hard to tell trading apart from gambling, but that is as far as it goes - knowledgeable and experienced traders don't gamble, the ones that do are most newbies and that is because they are yet to realize there is indeed a boundary. However with time, the university of hard knock often open their eyes to see beyond their nose.
Quote
But gambling site requires you to bet against them while trading you are just buying and selling entities which no one personally owns and sells.
I see you point there, in gambling, one is actually playing against the house and since the house does not have other means of income, there is always this suspicion that most gambling sites cook the outcome of their games. However, trading in most cases, involves traders and buyers using brokers as middlemen.
Quote
Hence when you gamble you lose while when you trade it just gives you loss or profit based on your ability and the sort of decision maker you are, take the example of Buffet the richest guy, he won't get a decision wrong.
I think the point you are trying to make there is that proper study and analysis gives high probability of getting a decision right in trading as against gambling, but that is not to say that even experienced traders don't run into wrong trading decisions one time or the other.

2317  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Something Odd Is Happening at Bitcoin’s Largest Mining Pool Read more: http://w on: March 07, 2017, 07:38:18 PM
Strange.

Why would the largest miner on the network be stifling the capacity we already have? The owner of AntMiner claims to support the on-chain transaction model. This news seems to contradict that position

As to me, there is nothing strange in that

In fact, I have been expecting something like that. Miners are just trying to squeeze more profits later by stifling the capacity now. It is a bit counterintuitive (I understand your pain), but that's how things work in general (and worked out in the past numerous times). With more transactions unconfirmed today, miners will get more profits tomorrow. Folks will be forced to pay higher fees, and gradually they will get accustomed to high fees and then the pools will fully exploit that. This is quite in line with what diverse monopolies are doing every day all over the world in any field. Any monopoly is evil unless it gets bridled somehow, and miners are simply using and abusing their position
More disturbing when one take into account the fact that majority of mining rigs are situated in China and monopoly of all things in the hand of the Chinese doesn't bide well for the rest of the world. Something need be done to address this ugly part of Bitcoin before it metamorphosed into a point of departure.
2318  Economy / Gambling / Re: fortunejack.com POSSIBLE EXIT SCAM on: March 07, 2017, 05:20:23 PM
Seeing those pictures about minimum withdrawal of bitcoin, I have to check it immediately if that's for real. And upon seeing I find it crazy to see FJ's to require their gamblers to withdraw that much. It's a force gambling, they are forcing their gamblers to keep on gambling until reaching the minimum limit which is a freaking move.
Knowing that in the long run a player stands very good chance of kissing his coins goodbye, the 0.1BTC is to see to it the payment threshold is made unattainable by majority of players. Imagine what it would entail in terms of time and effort to raise a deposit of 0.01BTC to 0.1BTC, they know it is going to be a suicidal mission for players and it wasn't an after thought.
The minimum withdrawal of 0.1 btc at fj is only temporary as their community manager already made a response about this and mentioned that they will change the minimum withdrawal to 0.01 btc by monday.
I see the minimum withdrawal is now back to 0.01BTC and that must have come as the implication of that explainable hike dawned on them, they actually thought little of it to have implemented it in the first place without any thought it was going to be the cog in their wheel. In these days that dice sites are springing up like mushroom, a good manager's priority should be geared towards retaining and maintaining the loyalty of their clients and not to give them a reason to look elsewhere, because some may never come back.
2319  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How is trading *not* gambling? on: March 07, 2017, 01:50:24 PM
Firstly, we should see which these points are same here in gambling and trading,
1. Invest money
2. Take the risk.
3. Luck
If we use our mind than we know all business are same, we use money and take risk and if we use our skills than it is chance we could earn more. Otherwise if we are lucky than luck wise we could earn more. So i don't think that trading and gambling similar.
Gambling gives us fun and trading is a kind of business.   
Nope, the gambling will give both fun and profit. And Trading is just a business to make money. But the risk is same in both trading and gambling. You have to invest money to make a profit. But in trading at least you will have hope that you can make a profit, In gambling, this type of confidence will never come this purely depends on your luck. Even skill base games also base on your luck.
I think we are forgetting the fact that gambling hardly offers a chance to cut short one losses and that is the reason bursting one's entire balance in matter of seconds is a regular occurrence in gambling. With trading, except a trader also gambles with his trade, it is always possible to cut short one's losses or to determine from the on set how much one is willing to lose for trades gone wrong, more or less like saying gamblers hardly have second chance to try again after some losing streaks.

I think in the long run all fiat currencies will be worth less in the future, because they are centralized and highly inflationary currencies. Considering these aspects, I also feel more secure holding Bitcoin.
It is not true because all of the people around the world is need the fiat currency and we can't erase it from the world.  But i think you still need the fiat currency to keep your life too.
Yes the fiats will always be there because they serve the interests of the government, of which Bitcoin looks the other way. It follows that at no point in time would we see the governments fully backing Bitcoin, they understand too well what implication that holds for the fiats currencies. What every bitcoiner must hold paramount is that the survival of Bitcoin is our collective role to play, the government just won't, in fact, if the governments have had their way, Bitcoin would have been straggled by now.
