Looks like litecoininvest went back up. Hopefully that means HFLTC's acquisition of it went smoothly

What is HFLTC?

Due to the large amount of european customers we decided to move our hosting to the UK. This doesn't affect US Customers as much as it sounds like, the connection is still more than sufficient to load the site in a timely manner. Please stay put until the server migration is done Smiley

This transition's being funky, I can access the main webpage and see RWR right there for $9.89 but when I click it then I get the "This site has been moved to a new server" message. Cheesy

Interesting... The site has no longer "been moved" it's now "suspended" and redirects to http://key4co.in/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi

Was about to report this one myself. Just tried to load it and got the same error.
We expected Namecheap to be a little bit faster than this. If we would have bought a new server and transferred everything ourselves we would have been faster  Roll Eyes

Yeah, it's definitely taking a long time. Hope they get it sorted out fast. It sucks to know you're losing revenue and have no control over it.
We had several issues with our DNS but now we're back online.

No need to worry about our revenue. We do it for the fun we get out of it, the little profit we have gets reinvested. Luckily we didn't miss any mayor release Cheesy. This should be it with the downtimes for the rest of the year.

Happy Gaming!

Good to hear! And if you don't mind asking a somewhat personal question related to the business... do you end up dumping the altcoins for BTC/fiat, or do you hold? I'm especially asking in the case of HYPER.
2603  Economy / Securities / Re: Bitcoin Stock Markets on: October 22, 2015, 12:10:50 AM
Is there an exchange that allows you to buy shares in companies like Google, Apple, Tesla, etc. using bitcoin?

I don't think this is possible, but it doesn't hurt to toss the idea out there.

No, because of KYC/AML and other things. You'd have to report on where your BTC came from and such, so it would pose no benefit over fiat regardless.

the first thing is to not reuse addresses. rather, generate a new address every time

Well with a lot (if not all) wallets that you use, the wallet generates a new address each time you receive bitcoins to the previous address... so that's already implemented.

I'm not aware of any that do that. Can you name some? Xapo, Circle, Coinbase, Blockchain.info, MultiBit, Bitcoin QT, Electrum, (I know I'm missing a lot here) definitely don't.

I can't login to the site. It says "Please check the captcha." but there is no captcha in the page. It didn't load. I refreshed several times.

It always shows for me once it errors out like that. Try reopening the browser and trying again.

Ouch, the spread is now almost 1400 BTC between the sites. I'm not 100% sure if the whales can turn that over now, since PRC looks like it has some whales too, Sad.

Problem for BB is their low max. win 42 times lower than at PRC.
This high max win  allow players to bet 200BTC at once, like this.


Wow. 200 BTC at like 70%? Talk about risky, too!

And that's a good point. I believe the owner of PRC said they have like 4-5k BTC in their bankroll, as opposed to MP's <1000.

Currently 3358 Bitcoin bankroll with a max bet of 296.

Does the site use Kelly 1x (max. win of 33.58 right now)? Or what's the max. win?

Max win at the moment is 296BTC , Kelly risk depend on investors.
You can see on the image CARMEX won 53BTC.

Ahhh, yeah, you're right. Looks like BB is at a sort of disadvantage there (in terms of the big whales).

I'm sorry for honesty .. but this "game" reminds me of Cloud Mining Services. I do not want to say that there is something wrong, but in this game we can win real BTC, so somehow you need to get them (BTC). Do you have miners to cover the costs of game? Or when new users stop coming you will be forced to stop paying?

If you ignore the cloud mining aspect, it's a website where you put in an investment and then get a fractional part of that back each day. The site will never keep up and anyone saying that MinerFarm is legit is either playing you to make a buck or get out at your expense, or just stupid themselves.

If you think that way, every cloud mining system is ponzi. Unless you purchase pyhsical mining hardware, all of them are risky.

Actually we know only advertisement baner's incomes. Maybe there are some other incomes with using the investments btcs. We do not know. It can be real mining or other invesments. If alisar can pay, I will ot interest the other things.

If he's been running all the other faucets and paying out, it's entirely possible that those earnings help subsidize the site as well.

why would a smart businessman who runs an allegedly profitable faucet ring come out and start a site that will lose him money.

Because it allows him to boost his own sites? Why does Amazon offer free eBooks? It costs money every time you view their site and download something. It's because it helps them drag you into other things.

So you're saying advertising from faucets pay for the investment returns on MinerFarm. Specifically, that the extra advertisement income gotten from forwarding people from MinerFarm pays for the investment returns on MinerFarm.

Sounds looney to me.

I'm saying it's a possibility that they're running/going to run other services that are somehow interlinked. It's very common in the Bitcoin world. But seeing as I'm not the owner of the site, it's all speculation of possibilities -- not factual information.

I heard many mixer services will make our transactions untraceable by using different bitcoin addresses. very much useful services.
Mixers are centralized third parties. This is not a trustless solution
You can use different mixers and gambling sites to lower the probability of it getting linked together. You could potentially send it to a trustable mixer which delete logs but still it may be possible that they are keeping them.You can also exchange the Bitcoin to Monero using exchange A and send the monero to exchange B to withdraw. Many exchanges do not require verification.

Sounds like a lot of work and on mixer your trusting someone else you have no idea who it is. I still think mining sounds like easiest way.

Mine through a proxy or vpn you know does not keep log and mine directly to bitcoin address you want.  It's a new coin so no real history but from pool sending it.
Again, those providers may just be making a false promise and not actually deleting the logs or worst, giving them to the government. Unless you have any miners that is efficient, it probably won't work and the risk is huge. Renting rigs wouldn't help either, they typically sell their hashpower at more than what you can earn.

I am kinda a pessimist on some things.  I look at it as chances are a mixer has some records.  They need to know what comes in and what goes out ... or how do they know they are making a profit? 

They have wallets somehow connnected to the site.  Can you imagine having a decent hot wallet running a mixer and not logging IP's or other info?  I mean what if they are hacked they need info on where coins are sent... and more info.  I think they as a business have some logs in most cases.   

I don't think they'd log IPs, and just hope nothing happens. About the profit situation, I'd assume they log the number of coins in/out, as that's easy to do just with simple incrementing numbers.

signed up on the website looks cool Cheesy hope i win, also i noticed i have to wait 30 min after i sign up? why is that

It could be because that you did an anonymous roll before you register on the site.



Voting Result

Voting have ended with 100% voted for yes. Thank everyone for voting. I will contact an escrow - probably master-P - to hold the fund of 0.05 BTC.

When is the drawing planned for now?

2613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: October 21, 2015, 05:43:15 PM
i think there was a luck too but its must be has some bug math ,or you can calculate it, so you get more win change percentage.
i play with automatic bot and place in 51% and usually get more wins,but sometimes not.

There's only one bug you can take advantage of on some sites, which is rounding errors. Won't go into more details on that but some sites have already fixed it.

I think the idea behind renting the rigs is that you keep separated from the coins. And while you lose money, you lose money doing mixers or other things, too.

So, I happen to have gotten a better computer recently, makes me consider loading some sort of WINDOZE in a vm in order to try out Seals for the first time in 2015(!).  Anyone know how to do that?  Is there some free clone of WINDOZE XP I can download somewhere?  Surely no one buys XP anymore.  Surely no one buys WINDOZE just to run it as a virus attraction machine inside VM?
I have a friend who has a colleague who knows a guy that downloaded just the official WIN10 ISO straight from Microsoft, installed it in a VM and used "KMSpico" to activate it.

There are also other free 100% legal Windows versions including XP here, but these expire after 90 days (so have to re-install all including SWC each 90 days - you will lose files too afaik.) TBH I do think it's pretty cool Microsoft offers these VM images for free (officially it's to test websites in different IE/OS versions.)

Thanks nlnico,  I'm going to look into this in the next few days when I have a few moments to play with it.

As an alternative, I'm assuming that the activation is local, as is the timer. So make the VM with Windows, install SWC on it, and then make a copy of the VM image itself. Every time it unactivates, just delete the old image, load up the backed up one, and continue as normal.

If you guys want to talk strategy look at Dooglus.  I was reading some of the posts he was making.  The guy is just good at math.  He seems to understand what it takes to manipulate the expected value, although it won't be positive it gets it closer to 50%.  Worth reading

Yeah, but dooglus has also stated in one of his posts that you can't win in the long term. In the short term, the house edge is beatable, but in the long term you will lose, as the maths are against you.

Long term is undefinable as it constitutes infinity. You'd expect to approach a loss as you increase the total number of bets made - but he most definitely would not say you 'cannot' win. It's just statistically unlikely - there's always a chance a guy makes 1 million bets and wins all of them or he win 500001 and losses 499999 therefore giving him an overall profit. For an individual - unless you're making like 1 billion bets or something the variance is by far a bigger factor than just the pure -EV alone (unless you skew the -EV by a significant margin).

This is the whole reason why you won't find a strategy. There is none. If there were, it would have to work long-term. And no betting pattern is even guaranteed to win short-term.

Hi,

Can you tell me what kind of sites are accepted in your network? I have been with another ad network and even though they look really legit, the traffic I've been getting are kind of really bad.



What network have you been working with?

I've tried BitMedia, may be it's just me, that's why am still continually tweaking and trying.

@ontopic I meant do you check your applicant's traffic sources? We all know Alexa ranking can be faked.

I think that BitMedia is a lot more limited on publishers than most other sites are, so it would make sense. They are also proactive in getting new people on board.

And this is the current one! Not that hard anymore...

Shot glass! Maybe a regular one, hard to tell based on the camera angle, but looks small.

Heh... You were right. The answer was a shotglass. (The feeling of when you think it is something, and it turns out you were correct bu you didn't bet.)

That energy sticker still haunts me everynight.

I'm not a gambler really, so I'm fine not winning, :p. I just like to have the fun of guessing things.
