It is great to see these sorts of things coming to the bitcoin world. With this you can buy pretty much everything with bitcoin which imo is great for the bitcoin economy as I feel bitcoin was meant to be spent and used.

Do you still have a vouch copy available? Would you be able to PM me about this? Also are all accounts/games the same cost?

I make a little bit of money of signature campaigns and the such but not a huge amount. It is enough to have fun with and muck around a bit but it's not a huge amount either.

There are many big sites that accept bitcoin but are not related, an example being dell and dish who both accept bitcoin.
But I guess those sites accept Bitcoin as an experiment, but make their living out of fiat money.

The whole point is that when I think about bitcoin, the only people I know who admit to make money out of it are gamblers and speculators.
Small companies like shops are really skeptical and some of them declare to have lost money by accepting bitcoin,
And their final goal is to use bitcoin as a temporary method to increase their fiat money. That is a symptom of failure.
If real and honest work is being exchanged for bitcoin, for me that is a symptom of success.


I think that most companies that rely on bitcoin would be bitcoin based or related at this point in time. I understand what you are saying and I am sure in the future more companies will accept and take bitcoin but with current volatility it is hard for a company to rely on it all the time.

People's humanity.
If I could run away with lots of money and don't take any risk, then why not?
It's just a nature of human.


But why would you do it if you have a chance at making more money in the long term? That is the only bit I don't really understand about some people...
248  Economy / Gambling / Re: Has anyone here ever made money gambling with BTC? on: March 10, 2015, 10:08:04 AM
I make money from time to time occasional, overall I lose money but when I am just having some fun I can make a little bit.

I read a while ago about a supercomputer being used for Doge mining, it wasn't very good, I beleive better than a good GPU, but nothing special, not worth wasting supercomputer time for anyway!

Last time I mined Doge with CPU I got for a day of mining less than what I get from a faucet in one visit.


But there was some exploit for Synology NAS that installed Dogecoin miners and the hacker got some bucks at that point (lower diff, higher Doge, higher BTC). I don't have the patience to search for that news, it's about 8-10 months old, I think.
So basically if you chose the right coin, this can work. It's a shame that uTorrent actually does this - with or without an EULA.

But could you imagine with say 1 million cpu's all running at once? They might be able to make a fair bit from that, also I don't think this was utorrent itself.

How far away do we think the new forum software will be? It sounds pretty interesting and I am sure it will be great for the forum.
253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Average Age for Bitcoin/Crypto currency users on: March 10, 2015, 09:56:33 AM
I know of a few teenagers in my area who talk about bitcoin a bit. I don't think too many of them know about it though.

Would you be willing to lower the starting bid a little bit or not? I feel that it may be a fair price for nearing the end of an auction but to start out might be a little bit high.

Make sure you check over the email as other have stated as it may not be a legitimate email. But your right this could be a hacking attempt, did you have much btc in the account?
256  Other / New forum software / Re: Browser Fingerprint! on: March 10, 2015, 09:51:19 AM
I though multi accounts where allowed? Why would that be needed if this is the case? People buy and sell account all the time in the market place.

For ban evasion, for example.


MZ: it's statistical data, so it may fail. Also, if somebody uses IE, Chrome, FFox, ... he already has 3 fingerprints.
But the results are, however, impressive.

Ah I see, this could be really useful actually especially if it is easy to search through addresses etc. although the problem with tor is that it is a different browser and IP address and it is allowed... Along with this (jut making a complete assumption) if it checks your MAC address you can easily change this as well.

Welcome! I understand you know about bitcoin but make sure to read the help section and learn the forum rules!

How low do you think you could go if you don't get a buyer soon? I understand you are looking for 0.1 but I don't know if it is a fair price for these specific games.

I feel that bitcoin can be for everyone, it saves people a lot of expenses when sending money overseas and makes currency in general easy for everyone to use.
