3201  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: June 27, 2017, 12:47:31 PM
I'm planning on buying some miners very soon, going to buy some Antminer S9's and maybe also an altcoin rig.
It's going to be one of the largest investments I've done in my life, but I have cheap electricity, so it should work out.

That must have been some pretty phenomenal rates you were getting Smiley
For me it takes ages to reach that kind of affiliate earnings, even with 40 referrals.

Better not gamble it all though.

3204  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ALIBABA TO ACCEPT BITCOIN BEFORE AMAZON & OTHERS on: June 23, 2017, 09:19:20 PM
Yeah, this poll doesn't mean anything, such clickbait that title...
I'd bet some money that Amazon would probably accept Bitcoin before Alibaba, especially because China and Bitcoin don't seem to get along very well from time to time.
3205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: VISA is hiring blockchain expert on: June 23, 2017, 02:35:32 PM
Anybody with this experience is probably making more money from releasing scam icos and tokens.
I wouldn't generalize too much, there are enough honest developers who would jump on an opportunity like this.
VISA isn't going to settle for just any random developer and they'll make it worth his while, you can be sure of that.

Besides, the pool of people with blockchain expertise is getting larger and larger.
3206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Many Casinos Are There in Your Country? on: June 23, 2017, 02:31:07 PM
Here in Belgium there are around 50 casino's I think, most of them are fairly small gaming halls with a different kind of license than larger casino's.
There are around 5 really big casino's that I know of, pretty far away from where I live though.
3207  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stop the word SCAM on: June 23, 2017, 02:19:04 PM
I agree that people shouldn't use the word scam without giving a somewhat decent explanation for it, but I certainly wouldn't go as far to implement a rule for it.
What do you mean by proof btw? I think it should be enough if they just give an reason why they think it's a scam.
3208  Economy / Gambling / Re: ★Crypto-Games.net ★ 9 coins ★ 7 games ★ Since 2014 ★ Largest Crowdfunded Casino on: June 23, 2017, 01:56:11 PM
Looks like Denzel331 got lucky again and won 16.86 ETH!
Did he just have a dose of luck potion?  Tongue
He's only been a member for almost a month though, so he just got lucky with variance Wink
In theory, it should even out the longer he plays, but it's also possible that he'll stay in profit ofc.

Also interesting, there are a lot of ETH investments on Crypto-Games now, which allow you to make some pretty large bets, in that sense it's definitely 'easier' to get into decent profit by making just a few bets and getting really lucky. I hope my explanation is somewhat correct here.
3209  Economy / Gambling / Re: Do not deposit at cryptogames.io. !!!WARNING!!! on: June 23, 2017, 01:43:08 PM
I'm pretty sure he was just talking about the website's name, which is the same as crypto-games.net and yes it is pretty misleading.
I'm guessing they just wanted some of the success of Crypto-Games.net, which was the first one to use that name.
They claimed ignorance, although it's not very hard googling your name before you set up a domain.
Especially if you want to establish a brand, that should be common sense.
Yeah, I would even go as far to avoid such sites from the start, since you can almost be sure that they aren't serious about their brand.
I just hope that no-one ever goes to that website thinking it's from the same owners as Crypto-games.net.
3210  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Offline Wallets Vs Online Wallets on: June 23, 2017, 01:35:31 PM
I have made a decision that I will be using online wallet since I make transactions on a daily basis
Uhm what? How did you come to the conclusion that it's better to use an online wallet if you're going to make transactions on a daily basis?
Security aside, a desktop wallet is arguably much better for daily transactions.

You will never have any downtime, you don't need to log-in before making transactions and most desktop wallets are even easier to use than online wallets (imo).
3211  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am i missing something here ($100 into Gamecredits in 2014) on: June 22, 2017, 09:11:03 PM
Wow, didn't realize that they were that valuable at this time, kinda lost interest in Gamecredits a few years ago.

This is actually something that you can show to people who are afraid of investing into crypto-currency because they think they've missed the boat.
I'm certain that there are other altcoins today that are going to blow up in the future.

Makes me want to buy a bunch of really obscure ones and just forget about them Wink
3212  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Advice- Should friend send 6500 USD to just one exchange? on: June 22, 2017, 08:57:50 PM
I would personally try to minimize the risk by trying to keep the fiat funds on the exchange for as little time as possible.
If I understand you correctly, he wants to leave the fiat on the exchange for some time and buy just at the right time?

I'd calculate how long it would take exactly for your money to appear on the exchange after depositing and just do the deposit when it's almost time to buy the Bitcoin, so the money is basically only a few days on the exchange instead of maybe weeks or months.

It's better to pay a bit too much for those Bitcoins than taking a bigger risk of losing the fiat on the exchange.
I don't care how safe a certain exchange is, bad things can always happen.
3213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you buy for money won? on: June 22, 2017, 08:50:20 PM
Last 5 months, i bought a drone and a new moto circle.
At first time, i lost so much but i deceided to gamble with all my coins and it becam a big won
I also made unexpected big win in recent times I bought jewelry for my sister-in-law because she loves jewelry and I bought a car for my father and I send my brother to Europe for visit and I bought a lot of things for myself like jeans, T-shirts, suites, glasses, shoes, boots and much more. And I bought Samsung galaxy note7 for my brother-in-law.
Damn, that must have been one hell of a win if you were able to buy that much stuff for yourself and your family.

I've also made a few very big win the past week, well very big for me, since I usually don't wager too much ( around 100 euros per deposit).
In total, I've won around 1800 euros and spent most of hit on a holiday with my partner.
3214  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What kind of Desktop PC do I need? on: June 22, 2017, 08:43:26 PM
buying a gaming rig to mine is overkill. it will have a much stronger cpu than needed as well as more storage and more ram than needed.

if you do want to go that route though make sure it can take at least two video cards (with good spacing between them) and have the cooling and psu power (with extra peg connectors) to handle 300-400+ watts of video cards. like 1080(ti)s.

plenty of guides here to make cheap miners for a fraction of the cost of a "gaming" rig.

of course if your primary goal is to game and make a little coin on the side, go for the gaming rig.
I guess it would be a good to go with the gaming PC option if you're just looking into it for testing and as a hobby, if it doesn't really work out, you indeed still have the gaming pc. Whereas if you had just built a dedicated mining rig, you'd be at a total loss if you decided that mining wasn't for you.

One other thing though, how much value does it really retain as a gaming pc after you've used it for mining for, say, a year or more?
3215  Economy / Gambling / Re: Do not deposit at cryptogames.io. !!!WARNING!!! on: June 22, 2017, 08:26:59 PM
I thought we were discussing crypto-games.net and I was surprised to see this was cryptogames.io. Really misleading to be honest.
Nothing is misleading here. No one mentioned crypto-games.net
I'm pretty sure he was just talking about the website's name, which is the same as crypto-games.net and yes it is pretty misleading.
I'm guessing they just wanted some of the success of Crypto-Games.net, which was the first one to use that name.
3216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what is the future of the crazy ICO market? on: June 22, 2017, 01:16:23 PM
I personally try to stay away from ICO's as much as possible, but that's just a preference.
Only investing in coins that are truly open and decentralized, such as Bitcoin, Litecoin etc.

I mean, investing in an ICO could work out for you, but I prefer the other approach.
3217  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can anyone explain to me what is faucet farming exactly? on: June 22, 2017, 12:53:22 PM
Thanks for the clarification guys! I just have one more doubt.
Suppose I have two accounts and use one account to claim faucet, gamble and transfer it back to first account, does it also come under faucet farming or not? I think it does but just to be sure, I'm asking... Thanks in advance people

Why do you need two accounts?

As long as you transfer your faucet money or profits from a faucet to other accounts and both accounts are operating on same IP address then it is not a good idea to do it. May your both accounts will be in a danger.
Maybe he's using the second account as a bank. I see some users on bitsler and other dice site do these to gather all their profits. OP shouldn't worry about his account getting banned for faucet farming if the other account only serves as a storage for his gambling purposes.
This is actually why I have the second account for. Thanks for bringing it up! Smiley Smiley
Just be careful, some sites don't allow you to have a second account, even when you're not using it for malicious purposes.
I would always thoroughly check the rules on every site you plan to play on and/or ask in chat or mail their support.
3218  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More than 50 hours and no confirmations : Bitcoin on: June 22, 2017, 12:44:25 PM
What should I do to obtain confirmations?
Thank you all.


Can you post your TXID? Omega said what's also on my mind. There's no other reason for the delay of your TX.

Next time just pay the recommended fee if you are using blockchain.info.

If you don't have an idea on how much is the recommended fee, you can rely to this https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

Edit: Oh there you go, thanks

Well I tried to use viabtc's accelerator and this is what I get.
Code:
Submissions are beyond limit. Please try later.
Blockchain mentions that this transaction is a double spend...

OP, you didn't receive this as a payment for something, right?
3219  Other / Off-topic / Re: Minecraft on: June 22, 2017, 09:46:51 AM
I still play some Minecraft, usually on Tekkit servers though, not that much vanilla these days, I got kinda sick of it.
Pretty sure that Bitquest is the only server that uses BTC as the in game currency.

Their website is still up, so I think it still exists? Or not?
3220  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH selling for $0.10 on: June 22, 2017, 09:28:04 AM
Someone decided to sell around 100k ETH on GDAX in a single order and whiped the whole sell book.

Like a certain mr102 did in btc-e some years ago, but now with steroids
Probably he started to panicking, else he would sell it slowly in multiple waves so he does not disturb market balance. This way you can conclude this things:
1.He knows something and he was in hurry to cash-out.
2.Those are maybe stolen funds..dumped.
3.Someone predicted that this was a peak, and will start free-fall.
4.I just can't imagine that this was lonely try to cause a dump..Maybe?

All fair questions, number 4 is actually probable. 2 as well.
Have there actually been any big ETH thefts recently? I don't think that I've seen any news about any thefts of that scale recently.
I feel that 1. could also be possible, or I would add that he might think that he knows something?

I personally wouldn't mind if ETH got down against, I think it's way overvalued atm.
