Every time I watch that Marcello video in your sig, I LMAO 

Regarding your FBI comment, it would be very irresponsible not to try to compile some info and submit it to multiple authorities. After all we are a large group of victims and Marcello or whatever the F his name is deserves to rot in jail.

Not reporting him, would encourage him and even others to pursue this criminal path, damage further the Bitcoin community, and eliminate any chances of restoration or closure.

If you are (a victim) "one of us" and are also angry, I suggest you put your energy into helping rather than insulting.

If you are not a victim, then you should say your "I told you so" and close the door behind you.

If you really need to, you can come back to say more "I told you so"s as long as you don't insult the victims 

I'm sure of that, and that's simply because (using n choose k formula), as the number or rolls k approaches infinity, the probability getting more than 12 losing streaks (n>12) increases  

I just really hope this doesn't happen before I make the BTC1.3 that I lost like a crazed lunatic. As soon as my balance becomes BTC1.3 BTC,  probably gonna withdraw BTC1.2 and leave BTC0.1 to finally start making some profit... Or maybe I'll find a way to leave it there but not allow myself to touch it so that it gains the 4.08% APR... Until then I'll be training myself to remain cool and not get greedy again  

EDIT: I think I have the n and the k reversed. I haven't done probability and statistics problems in 4 years... I think I should have said:

as the number or rolls n approaches infinity, the probability choosing k losing streaks increases.

Hahaha. ur're absolutely right! You said "suggesting that it will somehow help him is wrong, such strategies doesn't exists. Strategy will work and all of sudden it won't" and I guess I wrongly assumed you were implying the one we talking about. (I don't want to say its name again, or the boogie man may show up.

For everyone that rushed into concluding that I promoted Martingale:

Martingale by itself does not work!!!

A gambler must adapt it to his habits, luck and make sure he has enough Satoshi to survive many losing streaks, and think of little things like how likely would u get 2 streaks in a row, and how likely would u get 3 or more losing streaks in a row. the chance of losing literlay half everytime you lose, but there is still a chance, and u could use that to your advantage.

I'm not an expert or anything. since I started over 5 days ago, I only have BTC 0.00056093 in my balance... I waited till I accumulated 2000 sat, then just multiplied minimum bets (using a strategy somewhat similar to martingale) and increased my balance about 10% per day (trying to not be greedy). If I play for too long like I used to, I would lose my cool, get greedy and lose everything.

So again:

do not ignore anyone,
do your research,
figure out your strategy
practice with tiny amounts until u get the hang of it and grow your "cool tolerance". Its much easier to lose your cool/patience on larger amounts, but if u practice and lose using say 2-4k satishi you accumulated from the faucet, u'll eventually grow your balance and "coolness"  

In the end, when it comes to gambling there are no guarantees, anything can happen and in this site (like most) odds are against you

Hint: he said: "you must have an unlimited bankroll to be successful with martingale" which is why I mentioned you need to have accumulated over 2048 satoshi (and start playing with 1 satoshi). My modified version requires a minimum balance of double that.

It depends how safe you want to be. with a minimum of 2048,  would give you the chance to survive up to a 12x losing streak, with 32768 staoshi you could survive a 16x losing streak. with 0.00524288 BTC, you could survive up to 20x losing streak... and so on. All assuming your starting bet is 1 satoshi.

So he's not necessarily lying!

If he had lets say he has the following:

balance: BTC27:

starting bet: 10 satoshi

He should be able (by average) to survive a 29x losing streak. The probability of losing 29 times in a row is veeeery very unlikely

So this guy is telling him, not to listen to me. Therefore:
Do not accumulate at least 2000 satoshi (using the faucet. just let it go to waste)
Do not research game theories and betting theories (to learn how to bet)
Do not stick to the strategy with cool nerves (so u can bet like a maniac)
Do not expect to zero your balance

looooool great advice      ... NOT

For the record, I never advised using martingale. I advised researching it and adapting it to your self (like I did).

Unlike Pedro, I won't tell you who to listen to and who not to. I will insist you do as much research as possible and listen to everyone you can before gambling your BTC

If you want to be 99.99% safe, then just stick to the hourly faucet. If you manage to roll 24 times a day for 30 days (with the 1000% BTC bonus from reward points), you should be able to make about $48 a month in BTC

Sorry, but I won't share my modified version of martingale in public

First, Accumulate at least 2000 satoshi. EDIT: make that 2048 satoshi, so you would still make profit if you win after the EDIT: 11th loss
Research game theories, betting theories like Martingale
It's harder than it sounds, but stick to your strategy with cool nerves.
Expect to zero your balance a few times before learning how to do the above 3

Yaaay, it works. I’m mining!  

For some reason my hash rate falls from 7-8 to 3hash/sec on my iPad when the progress bar appears. Also in the old doge mining u had, I used to get about 8 hashes/sec

I just realized it’s your website. Lol can u reset my password please or delete my account so I can try again? Username is same as here. Thanks

EDIT:Never mind. It worked. I guess the Nickname is case sensitive?

Idk what wrong with Bitfootball. I registered, then it’s said registered successfully. Then I tried to log in and it keeps telling me credentials invalid. I can’t find a reset password button and when I tried to register again, it says IP already in use 

You're right. I was really stupid, weak, crazy and embarrassing moment... I was never a gambler until I met this site. In fact, I used to hate gambling and I think I still do. Since I don't dare to gamble more personal BTC, I'd rather stay here, claim faucets, carefully and calmly multiply and hope to win some of my losses in a lottery... one day... some day... 

I know! I'm trying to figure out how to learn how to research and analyze BTC charts to be able to make an educated guess and buy BTC before the price goes to the moon. Can anyone suggest an online course or video that could help me understand and guess BTC chart projections? Thanks

Poor guy. He was soooo wrooong!   

Welcome to the club! I lost 1.3 BTC in here before I learned how to control my emotions and gamble. After that, I just kept rolling and losing everything at the end of the week for two weeks. Thankfully, I have made up almost 0.0005 BTC since my last post and loss(4 days ago) just by claiming the free rolls and multiplying, and strictly following a technique.

If you "need" to try and make some back:
- research gambling techniques. I keep forgetting the name of the modified technique I am using...
- Do not let yourself get greedy. It's better to play small amounts and be safe than to risk high amounts and be sorry. Patience!
- Even with the best technique and the coolest nerves, the game depends highly on luck and odds are against you. So if you consider yourself unlucky (like me) better not invest more

Good luck!

EDIT: Martingale is what it is. I have adapted to work better (for me at least). I'm wondering if anyone could help me make a script to auto-bet after I prove (to myself) it's successful by making up my lost 1.3 BTC, one day... One day...

I guess, not only it reached $2000, its over $10K right now. I hope OP did buy at around $1100 - $1200... I wish I bought more a year and a half ago when it was around 300-400 

I need to buy some more. Any suggestion when to buy again and at what price? Any secrets about BTC price fluctuations (instead of the BTC whitepaper)?

Whether you will make ROI, not only depends on difficulty, but it really depends on your electric cost. If you are living in a country with expensive electricity, chances are you will make ROI faster with hashnest coud mining, because of their cheap chinese electric cost. only $0.07 per KWh currently... Whre I live right now its almost $0.023 per KWh, so mining here is a big NONO...

The best way to make a decision would be to compare your electric cost with theirs as well as Bitmain ASIC with Hashnests, to figure out your best choice for best ROI and profit. You should notice that an S9 is cheaper to buy on Bitmain and have it shipped to you, but chances are that electricity will cost you more than their maintenance fee...

Are there gonna be any new S9 or S9+ batches on Hashnest? Where should I be for such an announcement?

And where should I look out for the T9 release announcement?

What would be the best way to get notified ASAP about batch releases in Hashnest? (I really wanted to buy me some S9, but because I never saw an announcement or notification, I was too late for the party 

Hey. Any new PACMiC coming out soon?

The most legit, if not the only legit cloud mining is offered by Hashnest.

Hashnest is a Bitmain company that throughout the years has been producing the most powerful and efficient ASIC miners. Currently they sell the AntS9 (SHA256 miner), AntL3+ (scrypt miner), and AntS3 (X11 miner). AntT9 coming soon.

The reasons they have been able to stay legit in cloud mining:

1) Hashnest produces their own famous Antmain ASICs. Do not buy mining rigs from "middlemen"
2) They are based in China where electricity is sooooooo cheap. Therefore low maintenance fees (I believe if you are located in an expensive energy country like I am right now, physical home mining would be less profitable than Hashnest.
3) Their mining pool has about 20% of the global BTC hashrate.
4) Unfortunately i think they are trying to centralize or control bcash, so no room for any scams or they will fail in centralizing it.
5) They also have hash market. Where people could trade their hashes for BTC
6) If an ASIC becomes unprofitable, they give you the option to have it shipped to you (since it belongs to you), but you would have to pay shipping and handling fees.
7) Recently they created some lottery system where u can buy tickets with Bitcoin to win a miner like S9
They also have the PACMIC contracts which are very low risk, but low yield (currently not offered because of the stupid forks)
9) They keep trying to reduce electric cost and making making announcements about it. Right now I believe is about $0.07 per KWhr. I remember it used to be $0.09 like 2 years ago and at some point they announced it up to $0.11 temporarily due to some disagreement with their power supplier, until they changed it as brought it back to $0.09
10) There is no HashNest referral program! (Usually associated with scams, ponzis, pyramid schemes HYIPs, ... etc.)

NOTE: passive mining at Hashnest is only profitable if you buy a whole miner from them (at lower cost per GH than the markateplace). You could make extra profit by buying low and selling high, but you won't make any ROI if you just buy hash shares from the market.

That said, although I already made ROI on 2 S7 miners in about a year (S7 still profitable on hashnest), I have been desperately trying to by an S9 miner since March. I was too late to the party when they released S9 contracts and there hasn't been any announcements of any further S9 batches. They are in huge demand and tough to grab. My only advice is to try to check daily for announcements and the Hashnest store for when a new batch becomes available for cloudmining. They used to release like 3-4 batches a year, but the more time passes the less batches they are releasing, which makes some sense. Usually mining operations need capital in the beginning, the more they grow their mining operation, the less capital they need from investors to produce more ASICS for their personal use.

Now my turn to ask!  

Does anyone have any insight or experience with NiceHash? I've been trying to figure them out but there's too many variables. I'm finding it hard to believe that NiceHash is profitable since there are 2 middlemen: the hashrate renter and NiceHash. Also, if someone has a mining rig with cheap maintenance, Why on earth would he rent it out rather than making all the mining profit himself?
