Now I see that there is not much activity in here, maybe the community moved to the new thread, so I will move too.
Anyway I'll keep an eye to this thread also, added to my watchlist even if it is strange to watch 2 threads, like you said.

It's easy to see just by looking at OP start date and number of posts in total. Once again. This tread is dead. Everyone interested in project i suggest to visit:

Problem is that it is not just few flips, it is much more than that,
as you can see many people posted that crap on Telegram and discord, and most of them have Strong consensus.
That means that consensus is not good enough and need fixing.

Because people are crying too much about every bad flip they see. Bad flips happens but I don't think it is that big issue. Just take a look at my photo (it is actual data based on 13 validations not based on how much few are crying and how bad they are crying)

Out of 288 flips (long and short) I was only 3.5 p. short from max. How much of this was my fault? Maybe 0 maybe 1,2,3. Based on that i assume that ~1% of flips are flips that was bad and passed.
Last 8 validation i could go to telegram and post "ohh my flips was so great. I get 100%" - but people do not do that. Human nature is crying if something goes wrong.
3143  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Idena is the first Proof-of-Person Blockchain on: April 22, 2020, 05:49:34 PM
I think people are crying too much. If flips are so shitty how is it possible to get 100% one validation after another?



I have 121,5/125 (3 bad flips -2,5 pkt (one was detected by network and get weak consensus) and 1 was good, but I was too distracted to focus good enough to see it). Of course there are few poor quality flips, nothing will change that and its frustrating to get one but it's not about to have 100% good flips. It is not about to have 100% score. It is about detecting bots and validate you as a person to start processing blocks. It is about that.

"- People or AI submits flips not related to words at all and same flip for multiple word combinations"

That's what this system is about. We see this because they see potential of IDENA and try to get as much as it is possible. Our job is to detect them. So don't be surprised that you see them. Report and go on. IMHO flips are much much better than during epoch 18-30.

" People are still complaining for various bugs during validation" - yes this is always sad when someone loses stake due to bug... I think that there should be some sort of mechanism that detect what happens and in case it wasn't node fault it suspends it instead of killing. But I don't know how hard it is to develop it without creating a tool for cheaters. I think that sooner or later we will see it. It's "experimental main net" remamber Smiley. And if 3 people out of 2000 will have bug all 3 will cry on telegram. 1997 will stay quiet. I know that it happens but I don't know how big it is and in which cases it was 100% not node fault (f.e. bad internet connection is whose fault?).

I don't know if you will, what does the negative number even mean? how can something cost less than 0 in the future?

As I already pointed out its extreme case but I didn't expect it to be that extreme. Negative prices has never happened before. What does that mean? This contract closes today. XXX barrels was contracted, XXX barrels was produced and XXX barrels has to be sent to buyers. If you hold this contract till tomorrow you will receive oil in May or you will have to pay for rolling contract (which simply means paying for storing actual goods. This fee is enormous now due to storage shortage - to be honest i don't know how much is that). Most retail trades does not want to store 1000 barrels in home (JK), so they need to sell. Everyone that actually need oil already bought to the maximum of storage space, and they can't get more even with negative price.

So in other words price is negative because no one from actual users (f.e. refineries) is able to get more oil in May and a bunch of traders needs to get out of trade to not have problem with xxx barrels in front of their house (also paying for transport) or being hit with contract roll fee (which I don't know how high it is in current circumstances). So you (retail trader) pay someone (that's what selling in negative price is) for taking this risk out of you. Whole last month i was reading about going long on oil because Trump won't let oil to be that low for long. Those who did that now has to sell.

At least that's how I understand this extreme case.
3148  Economy / Speculation / Re: Globb0 BTC charts on: April 20, 2020, 04:49:30 PM
You're a real glass half full kind of guy, eh? Smiley

Only when i'm talking about bitcoin Smiley

Meanwhile OIL price.

link

You still call it "real price"? Its contract price for delivery oil in May it may even go to ~0. This price shows not only shortage of oil demand but also short term shortage of storage and no trader will buy it now because he has to sell it today/tomorrow and a bunch of guys who bought month ago at 20$ are saving money selling now. I might be wrong (not the first time Smiley ) but it will close and next contract will open at ~20$ range.
 
Edit: -35$! now. Didn't expect that.


Damn i went way to far with this off-topic. Its BTC TA thread not oil thread. Sorry for this. Back to BTC. RED ALLERT.
3149  Economy / Speculation / Re: Globb0 BTC charts on: April 20, 2020, 12:13:00 PM
Contango explains the price difference between May and June contracts, but it doesn't explain why oil is crashing.

It's extreme case. Average contango for oil is equal to few percent. Now its close to 80%. Currently, Oil is worth 11$ per barrel (damn 2 $ down from my last post) but you can earn +10$ per barrel only for storing it for a month. Tomorrow this contract will close and everyone will forget about it. New one will have different delivery time and will be priced ~20$. Yes it shows how extremely low demand we had in April compared to high supply that float market without OPEC+ but even more shows that everyone filled "storage bags" to the max and is not even able to get more in May and short Jun contract to earn 10$ per barrel guaranteed profit. Such high contango shows short term storage shortage. I would not look at contract that expires tomorrow in current circumstances.
3150  Economy / Speculation / Re: Globb0 BTC charts on: April 20, 2020, 10:50:18 AM
  • The crude oil market is a dumpster fire, down another 19% on the weekly open and below $15 a barrel now. Much more damage than this and the heavily leveraged US oil industry is going to shutter, or require a quick

It's because of contango. Some futures are rated at 13$, some at 23$ depends on delivery time (first one (13$) has delivery time set to May and expires tommorow. No one wants oil even at 13$ now because of storage shortage). Contract that expires in Jun is evaluated almost 80% higher, 28$ for oil delivered in July and 30$ for oil delivered in August. It's not as bad as it looks like but no matter if its 13$ or 40$ i agree that the corporate bond market for shale oil companies in the US is a ticking bomb.

3151  Economy / Speculation / Re: Globb0 BTC charts on: April 20, 2020, 05:42:36 AM
Start of the week, there might be some interesting movement. Just take note that April-June of last year was bullish and parabolic rise. Almost all of the traditional global markets are green right now, so we might want to take that into consideration as well.

"Sell in May and Go Away" didn't came from nowhere.

"From 1950 to around 2013, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has had an average return of only 0.3% during the May to October period, compared with an average gain of 7.5% during the November to April period,"

Based on 63 years data. Good thing is that, based on last few years, this patter is less visible but I would not expect this or this:

Quote
Just take note that April-June of last year was bullish and parabolic rise

to have big influence on price when we have:
1- fiat printers doing brrrr
2- covid panic and possible second wave of infections
3- halving
4- historic high fluctuation on stocks
....
50- Italy may not recover from financial crisis and sink whole EU - same currency
....
100- problems at OPEC+ that may end in a conflict in the Middle East (US will do a lot for the stability of oil prices)

By the way, do you have a source where we can see this tyranny scandalous activity of selling KYC information is happening?

I will not share darknet market links here because i don't know if its not against BTT (and personally i don't want to promote that) rules but i can link you this article to prove that I didn't made it up:
https://www.ccn.com/hacked-customer-data-from-world-leading-cryptocurrency-exchanges-for-sale-on-the-dark-web/

And photo of random vendor selling KYC data:


And if some may think that exchanges need photo with you holding a piece of paper with date than you need to know that 100$ is enough for fake ID.



So as I already said. Any restrictions will only disturb honest users. Every KYC, every coin holding if they are tailed with scam etc. Scammers will always find a way to scam and wash dirty money.

Scammers have fake IDs, KYC data, they sell OTC - P2P, they spread it through dozen of exchanges and cantors they may even use it to pay for signature campaigns for they current business (casino, exchange). It is possible that your address is already tailed. It is possible that they have their own exchange.

@DroomieChikito with luckydice you can play "clasic dice" which looks like that:



That's why you calculate dice 1 and dice 2.

Simpledice.com game looks live every high/low game. This is what i found in their fairness section.

Quote
To create random results (events) that happen during the game a special formula is used. First four bytes of HMAC_SHA256(K,m) function’s result need to be converted into decimal values (0-255 each). First byte is divided by 256 (256 raised to power of 1), second byte is divided by 65,256 (256 raised to power of 2), third byte is divided by 16,777,216 (256 raised to power of 3), fourth byte is divided by 4,294,967,296 (256 raised to power of 4). The sum of the divisions is an equally distributed value greater than or equal to zero, but smaller than one. Final game result is calculated by multiplying that value with 10,000 and taking only full part (floor) of that figure and then dividing by 100.

So you need 4 bytes - 8 digits: 7c7eeee8

First byte: 7c
Second byte: 7e
Third byte: ee
Forth byte: e8

Hex to dec:
7c ->  124
7e ->  126
b3 ->  238
e8 ->  232

(124/256)+(126/256^2)+(238/256^3)+(232/256^4)= 0.4863118473

Now we need to multiply it by 10 000, take floor and divide  it by 100.

floor(0.4863118473 * 10 000) = 4863
4863/100=48.63 - is that correct?
It looks like it is. That's the same what we get from calculator provided by casino.


3154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to check fairness of your bet - based on Luckydice on: April 19, 2020, 05:52:10 AM
To be honest, I actually just know that if it's "Provably Fair" I'm just going to trust the casino site (This is for reputable crypto casino sites that I played in). I never bothered to check the actual validity of the rolls that I get. I just know that I get a new seed when I play too long with that or something in that regard. For sure there are a lot of others who do this as well.

Anyways, I now have an idea with that, thanks to your post. Maybe I would try it on other sites as well, just out of curiousity.

You are right. Most of the gamblers blindly trust a casino if it claims to be "provably fair" without checking even a single bet. And as Sadlife said. Some casinos claim to be provably fair but there is no explanation on site how to convert raw data into final resoult.

In my opinion it is important to check at least 1 bet per day not only for us but for whole community. If 10 000 gamblers will check 1 bet daily we have 10 000 checked bets. If casino is cheating in 0.1% of bets we will (from statistic point of view) have 10 cheated bets, and we will expose scam. That's why it is important in my opinion to promote checking your bet even once per 100-200-1000 bets.

would you continue my step 3?  Grin Grin I am lazy to do next.

Sure but I don't know this site. It may calculate results a bit different. It looks like another Bitkong child but i can't find it. Throw link and I'll help you.

edit: ok i've found it. I will do it today.

Great work @Tytanowy Janusz

Apparently we are having some whining gambling losers in scam accusations who are accusing casinos just on the basis because they are having long streak of losses and which seems to be unreal to them. It would be great if you can explain to them it provably fair works on that site and prove it is not scam.

I've been there. Thanks for link but there is nothing I can do without server seed, client seed, nonce which he won't have becauase all he has is rumors. I left link to my post there.

Seems you don't know how provably fair system work or you just don't believe in provably fairness
Marlboroza is right. With provably fair mechanism it is very easy to prove that casino cheated.

Here is my guide about provably fair mechanism in luckydice - its sister site of the same company so it should work the same or similar way.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5235045.msg54086701#msg54086701

Bring here 1 bet that they cheated (server seed, client seed, nonce, expected outcome and cheated one) and we can talk.

KYC is literally for this, we can't do anything more than that, if an exchange asks for KYC and somehow still doesn't get the right guy that means there is nothing else they should be doing. Hell I have recently bought a yoga mat and didn't give any other information then my address so they can ship it, I bought a game from steam and never really gave ANY info, my name and address they asked there were all fake and nobody checked it twice.

So, exchanges are already doing something much much more than what the other ecommerce are doing, we should not be asking them anything more. If there is a hacking going on and people withdrew, just use their KYC to catch them, give all the info you have to cops and they will chase him, if not that means its not exchanges fault.

~50$ - that's how much you need to pay for KYC photos on darknet.
~100$ - that's how much you need to pay for credit card that is registered on random guy.

Also ICOs scammers has thousands of ID from their KYC that they demanded from their clients. Sometimes i think that this is a main income from today's ICOs. You get 1000 bounty hunters that perform KYC to get reward and you have 50 000$ from darknet. You don't need to sell even a single token during ICO.

Any restrictions will only makes things harder for honest guys. Scammers will always find a way to scam.

Zgadza się. Jest to absolutny rekord. Warto również przeczytać list od CZ, gdzie wymieniona jest długa lista ociągnięć tego kwartału jak i plany na przyszły (np smart chain z możliwością stakowania BNB!).

Porównaj to do BNB - sory nie ale mogę się powstrzymać. 500 mln $ rocznego zysku (a jutro pewnie okaże się, że mijający kwartał spompuje ten parametr znacznie)

Łączny zysk jaki binance osiągnął w ciągu ostatnich 12 miesięcy wynosi 755 mln $, co oznacza, że wskaźnik C/Z wynosi 3.3 - binance jest wyceniony na 3 letni zysk (ok coin to nie akcja, ale znając CZ kto wie kiedy stanie się udziałem - w końcu już wypłaca dywidendę w formie palenia coinów. Może jak modne (i uregulowane chociąż w 1 kraju) staną się security tokeny).
Biorąc pod uwagę tylko ostatni kwartał i skalując go na rok wychodzi 1 mld $ zysku i coś mi się wydaje, że CZ ma chrapkę na tą przekroczenie miliarda w 2020 Smiley

1- jedyny coin/token który generuje zyski w ilość w której jest on bardzo atrakcyjny wskaźnikowo (C/Z = 3.3 średnia dla SP500 to 20)
2- jedyny coin/token który generuje ~50% rocznie w przychodzie pasywnym jednocześnie pozostając deflacyjny
3- od 0 do największego rynku futures w kilka miesięcy
4- najsilniejszy byk ostatniego tygodnia spośród top 50 cmc

Jakie są powody by nie mieć tego w portfelu?
