We're back!

Did you miss us while we were gone???  The site still ran, but we didn't market and our bot (Bob9) made smaller bets.  Traffic seems way down  Embarrassed.

Have some coupons:

30a6ca9e-0017

5345463e-0017

957490ec-0017

22be71bd-0017

Please share with friends.

I spent a while trying to figure out where to add coupon codes... couldn't find it? I even did ctrl+f on each page...

Go on block777.com, click on the brown hair colored boy/girl ?, enter your address and the coupon code and choose the mining pool you think will mine that block, click place my bet!. That's it.

Ahh, thanks for that. Does this mean both of the sites are treated as one entity, or are they run separately?
Both sites treated as one entity, with the only difference in amount of blocks you can bet on. Your coupon bet will be shown on bettingblocks.com as well as on block777.com
Good luck!

Ohh, cool. I got a coupon to work but guessed the wrong block solver, :p. In any case, thanks for the opportunity!
3002  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Purse.io - Bitcoin Amazon Marketplace - Save ~10-25% on Amazon Wishlist on: October 03, 2015, 03:57:50 AM
I know Purse has some charts in there FAQ, but I'd thought I'd ask here as well. When setting a discount above 5%, what are the typical wait times for you guys? And how much does the cost (a $100 order vs $200 order or something like that) increase wait times/ decrease success rates?

I consistently use 15% and my order gets filled generally within 12 hours or so.  With Prime items, I'll see the merch about three days later.  YMMV, but it's pretty quick--5% should be a little faster.

That sounds similar to my experience, though I often go a little higher (20% or so) and wait a day or two. I've gone as high as 30% and gotten orders filled with less than a week wait.

Awesome. I just put in a less than $20 order at a 20% discount rate and want to see how long it'll take.
This brings up a good point that I should have mentioned first.  My cheapest market order was around $140US, I've purchased less expensive items, but I've always used the instant option.

A higher monetary value may move the process along quicker, as it allows the individuals purchasing on your behalf to acquire BTC quicker.  I'm interested to know how quickly your order gets filled--please let us know!   

So I made two orders: both at 20% discount. One i spent $45 and the other $150. Both were today. Both got purchased today (exact hours unknown, I'd say less than 8 hours). Either I was extremely lucky, or some people really needed some BTC. I was expecting to wait at least a day or two. Either way, I'm very impressed. Can't wait for my stuff to show Smiley

This is awesome to hear... I may have to go for this next time I need something from Amazon (buy BTC -> create an order). I'm still worried about the legal implications of carded transactions, though. I'd love an update on the other person that was in trouble.

Is there a reason why we can't do the table starter promo at two tables of the same stake and player max? eg. Casablanca 1 and Casablanca 2 (both 6 max).

If it is possible to do so, can someone please be so kind as to tell me how to do it?

Hello Junko, allow me to further clarify how subtables work.

The first table or subtable you can sit at if there are 0 or 1 people seated. As soon as you check this table out and start the table starter there you can not enter another subtable of this same name until at least 1 other person joins the table. So in order to sit at another subtable of the same name/stakes there has to be at least 2 people, including yourself, at the first one. Once there is you can start a 2nd. Once the 2nd has 2 people you can start a 3rd. And so on.

This is a design feature to keep the same player from sitting at the exact same table and encourage variety. If you are the only player seated at 5 Barcelona tables it provides no real variety to a player who wants to play, and spams the lobby to a small degree. If you're going to be seated by yourself we would prefer to have variety for players to choose from. With that said, once somebody does sit at your table you can then start another subtable for this same table name and we most certainly encourage that.

Hopefully that makes sense and isn't too confusing. Thanks for all the people participating in the program and good luck!  As always we appreciate your feedback and suggestions anytime.

But if I started five tables of the same name, Betcoin would get tons of action from other players fighting for a spot on my tables for some easy money, lol.

I guess I understand the reasoning. Though I do prefer sitting the same subtables. I'm not really one for variety when multi-tabling. The different betting amounts hurts my brain.

Anyway, Thanks for the explanation. I'll try the waiting for another player to sit then start a same name table.

*Edit: Forgot to add, it's a reallly nice bonus/promo.

What you're bringing up is easily fixed, though. As soon as someone joins a table, open another.

1) Create a bitcoin private key by rolling dice
2) transform into an address
3) write down the private key into a piece of paper
4) put the paper in a box
5) bary the box in your garden
6) only take it out when you need it.

regarding step 1: what exactly do you mean with 'create a bitcoin private key by rolling dice' ? i have never heard of anything like that when creating a private key.

I also do not know how to create a bitcoin address using the rolling dice.
Burying in garden may result in destroying the private key which may lead to burn off your hard earned bitcoin.
Encrypt your wallet with a strong address. That's enough to keep your private keys safe.

What he said doesn't really make sense. Bitcoin private keys have to be created a certain way, not by simply throwing down random letters/numbers.

Just found out about this site and very interested in investing, but have 2 questions..

1. ) the FAQ is all in Chinese and not in English. (lol guess that's not a question )

2.) the hourly interest, is that compounded or just the initial deposit that was made?


Thanks

Yeah, I inquired a couple months ago about doing a translation for them and Eric said he already had someone lined up. Doesn't appear to have done anything, though.

And interest is compounded.

Check my signature, you will find some good details  Wink

I checked your site and some rooms missing like SWCPoker, Betcoin , ACR...

In my opinion poker players use bitcoin  for its anonymity. Therefore, websites such as SWC with only offer  pc client cannot be categorized, as they will have access to your identification.

What are you talking about? Clients use the same protocols to access the Internet as your browser does. If one isn't anonymous, the other isn't either.

3008  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: October 03, 2015, 12:24:11 AM
My only chance of increasing a balance would be taking a reasonable 0.01 at 90% do it for 1 roll.

Sit out again and do this 1 time each week, so its not a get rich fast system.

1 time each week for 52 weeks is exactly the same as doing it 52x in a row. All you're doing is slowing down the process. If it will work one way, it will work the other. Tip: it won't work in either.

If I play with crypto then its at PokerShibes.  Grin

They just play with Doge so you have to convert your BTC before going to play there.

I will vouch for Pokershibes. I've cashed out a couple times from straight freeroll winnings (without even making a deposit) and they always paid. I just hate the Mavens software, Sad

Mavens software?

Are we need to doing install before play on Pokershibes?

I'm never try play on that site before, usually play on betcoin ag. How about the review? Is that good? Smiley

The site is good, and Mavens software is just something I dislike in general (doesn't look professional). But yes, the site works and does what it should. Definitely worth giving it a go if you're into betting with DOGE.
3010  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: October 02, 2015, 11:02:03 PM
Right now the only strategy I use is martingale (I know there are more strategies that I will try ) and so far it does work but only when you know when you're going to stop. Martingale is also the common one. But you can also try the strategy to go max bet  and roll at 9900x payout Grin (I don't what's it called though)

It doesn't always lead to ANY profit. I've had a couple times where my first 15-18 bets were all losses. Martingale is NOT a secure way to get short-term profit.

~10 hours into the first day of Wager WAR and it's looking like Rollin is taking a commanding lead. After two weeks though who will win this battle?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1194301.0

Where are you whales? Come to play on Betterbets and take advantage of the cashback and monthly raffle. Disclaimer: I have invested some good amount on Moneypot hehe.

They could be waiting for the second week. Who knows that betterbets will be planning to take over the volume at the second week and let rollin.io have fun first for the first week

As investors may we have to help bet some. Battle not over for many days. Secure investment...

Nothing about the investment is secure. It's high-risk, high-reward.
3012  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Best way to earn Bitcoins? on: October 02, 2015, 10:47:02 PM

In that case, why would someone invest with you over doing a personal investment, where the return would be higher?

Because the asset can go up too, not just the fund.

If you buy 1 share at 10 BURST, in the future it could get 1000 BURST, while the fund is still growing at the normal pace, giving out dividends regularly.

If you just invest personally then you only increase your funds slowly, without any extra increase.

For example:

Investing in an asset via havelock in bitcoin is only increasing X percent, in bitcoin price.

If that asset is also present on NXT asset exchange, then by investing in that instead, you are also exposed to the NXT variable, which can also go up or down.


It gives extra exposure to risk, but also extra exposure to new reward. You choose which risk level suits your plans/wishes.

(PS: We are doing altcoin trading now too, not just casino investments, so we are expecting bigger ROI now)

Ahh, I see. I need to look into this a bit more. I haven't really dealt with BURST yet.

3014  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: [ANN] Mellow Ads - simple, bitcoin advertising - CPM/CPC campaigns now available on: October 02, 2015, 10:40:27 PM
Ok guys, this is starting to get a little bit tiresome and to be honest irritating, so I want to try to balance things up a bit...

Since Mellow Ads has been online (nearly 4 months) we have had a total of 6 occasions when our system has been down/offline.
3 of those times were due to a neccesary server reboot, which we obviously try to keep to an absolute minimum.
The other times were unexpected down time - the latest of which was last week when we were off for around 40 minutes.
We are still trying to get to the bottom of this and are working with Cloudflare on this as we believe there was some sort of DOS attack.
However this 40 minutes downtime was the longest we have so far experienced.
For a brand new service which is growing rapidly, we believe that overall this is a fairly reasonable level of service - but we do accept that any sort of downtime causes a fair bit of inconvenience for our publishers and looks bad for advertisers - and we are therefore working hard to keep it to an absolute minimum.

Having said all that I just want to emphasize that we pride ourselves on our ads loading as fast, and usually faster than most other ad networks. Please visit any of our publisher sites and see for yourselves - you should see our ads loads very quickly relative to the other networks (Adsense, Adbit, Coinad etc)
With regard to the async issue raised by ranlo above - our ad placement is done via an IFRAME tag, and the code is very simple and very similar to that used by AdBit, CoinAd and other networks. IFRAMEs load in parallel to the page, so they DO NOT impact the speed that the publishers page renders. If Mellow Ads was down or slow (for whathever reason) then the only issue would be if the publisher deliberately has some script that waits for any ad IFRAMEs to finish before allowing the page to be used.
If this is the case then it would also affect any other networks that use the same ad loading technique - and the publisher should probably look into changing this.

And now the good news!! On all our key measures the service is improving week on week, and month on month.
The *average* network pool amount has risen quite a lot over the last few weeks - over 150%.
Yes, occasionally this amount will drop - sometimes quite suddenly by a large amount. Simply, this happens when a large network campaign ends.
I would like to suggest that we don't just throw our hands in the air and hastily complain to this thread when this happens - by its very nature this amount cannot always be going up  - it has to go down sometimes too. Currently its back up to 1.74 BTC which isn't its highest level but was unheard of just a couple of weeks ago when it was hovering around 0.3 btc. And we have new advertisers coming on board every day Smiley
Similarly the number of CPC and CPM are steadily increasing.
And on the other side of the equation the total number of views provided by our publishers smashed past 14 million yesterday, which is our best days figures so far.

Any chance you can create a chart sometime with a daily or weekly log of BTC pool and views, just to see progression/trend?

"Lets say there is 5 consistent ring game players who play threw x amount of raked hands" at the end of each week "just those players who completed the rake requirement will qualify for a generous freeroll"  (which once people start seeing will want to get involved, 'hence start playing ring games.

I am quite aware that there are freeroll for points (that is not for just ring game players as said), I also receive some cashback for ring games (clearly not talking about that).
...

I don't get your idea at all. By 'rake requirements' you mean number of raked hands played? From site operator's perspective the amount of rake matters, not number of hands. Why do you want to reward/prioritise players who play more hands but pay less rake? That would be a strange business model.

Loyalty points system is simple and works well. All it really takes is to drive more players to the site, who aren't ring-game-shy.

Well have to assume you have not played much poker and unlocked bonus money in the process or qualified for cash game freerolls. Raked hand.. is a hand played in a cash game that is actually played and the pot hits a set amount whatever the admin chooses in this case.

You sit down for a cash game and don't play a hand then you don't play a raked hand.  (google is your friend is you don't understand) Let me bold that was very easy to understand even for poker laymans---  I see how it could be a strange business model when top sites need it as a requirement a lot of the time.

If this was implemented then once players from other sites hear about it they would come and play at lucky flop to fulfil the requirement hence increasing player base, hence increasing more players because there is players to play against.

I've never. NEVER seen a site that pays out bonuses based on raked hands and not rake amount. No major site does it this way.

Then as I said you have not completed many or played at top sites  Roll Eyes Here one search on google "meaning of raked hands" takes you to it now if you check all top sites bonus structure you will see it time and time again. http://www.internettexasholdem.com/poker-forum/poker-books-tools-bonuses/definition-raked-hand-party-poker-16770.html I won't be discussing this no-more so expect no-reply it was never aimed at either of you in the first place as stated, couldn't imagine why you would post anyway. (oh yes I do)

Eh, I find Party Poker to be a nonfactor, due to Black Friday. And no, I don't play there, because I can't.

I'm thinking that each time a block is found that it really means they have a 33% chance of their number being generated in a die roll to win a block.  I mean I don't know for certain, but it's at least an idea to work off of...


Well, yeah... it doesn't make sense to do it any other way, does it? Making pools ineligible because they got a block would be a bad approach.
3018  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Best way to earn Bitcoins? on: October 02, 2015, 06:07:58 AM
Currently BURST is my recommendation. Invest in BURST and it's assets, just today 3 of the BURST assets paid it's dividends (end of month), including mine.

Some assets generated up to 0.13BTC in value. You just buy the BURST , then the assets, then you get dividends on them.

After you decide to cash out, you just convert back it into Bitcoin, and make profit.

Any idea where I could find those Burst assets? Sorry for my ignorance, but I haven’t seen any as to this date. Please let me know as I would like to invest in them too.

You buy them from the BURST client, there is a built in asset exchange from where you can buy the assets.

I`ve just made a list of the established BUST assets, my asset is the fastest growing one with the 2nd highest monthly trading volume:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg12577687#msg12577687

May i know are you a dev by BURST coin?
anyway i'll put this method on my list the way to earn bitcoin, i just curious how profitable is it?
can you share your revenue from this method? i mean how much you invest and how much you get?

No i`m not the dev i`m just an asset manager.

We invest in casino bankrolls, and in other assets. Currently we earn 0.10-0.20% ROI /day, average about 0.016% ROI/day.



I'm lost as to where the money comes from, though. How is this profitable?

What do you mean I don't understand you. Do you mean my asset's profit or the other assets?

My asset invests in casino bankrolls.

In that case, why would someone invest with you over doing a personal investment, where the return would be higher?

The 10 GH/s is given automatically, and it has no "expiration." It does, however, degrade in the game. It looks like it's 1% or so per day (so it lasts 100 days I believe).

The site name Playtodos . It's a great, fun place to play with BTC

They have to improve their software more and more, or create a HTML5 client. actually they have a great sign campaign and promotion, but seems that the number of players are not increased significantly.


That's because the software sucks and looks like it's from the 1980s. They have a long way to go I think.
agreed with this,
ive downloaded and play for only few min, its quite boring with that looks.. they really need to improve the software and the graphic

I think if they ever did really modernize it, it would be an awesome site. No other site I'm aware of lets you claim free money every day to take to cash games or tournaments to play through. That is an awesome feature.
