The most annoying mistake is over-playing, I played with few bitcents and reached really good profit but kept going for more until I lost the deposited and profit money. I think over-trading in general is a big mistake that can even lower the possibility more than the house edge.
You should know your limit and don't do that usually because it will just make you piss when you will lose a lot of money. It's not over trading but it is over gambling, you are just not aware of what can happen when you will not stop on the right time. Also control yourself when you gamble, so that you will not be losing your deposited and profit money. If you have a really difficult time to do that, it might be better to just try to stop gambling alltogether, some people just lack the self-conbtrol to gamble with moderation an they'll always just spend too much. Other people can benefit from just setting a limit and not going over that limit when they play. I'm talking about a time and/or spending limit btw.

If it's true that you actually have a prize of 50 BTC, that would be pretty amazing to win. Is there any way you can prove that you actually have 50 BTC?
Perhaps sign a message with the adress you have the 50 BTC on?

Start by using a faucet that actually lets you claim a couple of thousand satoshi's. My faucet claim at Crypto-Games is now 4800 satoshi's and have won 0.01 BTC and more with that a couple of times.
You do need to level your account in order to have a high faucet claim though.
Damn that's high. But where do you go to get it ? Please give more info. How many times per day and how long does it last for. What are the conditions for such a faucet ? Winning 0.01btc off a faucet that's crazy. Sorry for the late reply, I forgot about this thread because I have too many to follow :p I can claim 4800 satoshi's 24 times per day on crypto-games and I've even won 0.03 BTC last week from such a faucet claim. In the past, I just bet 100 satoshi's x75 on dice and bought lottery tickets once I won over 1k satoshi's, the jackpot is usually over 0.01 BTC. Or I've also used it to play roulette from which I've also won over 0.01 BTC just from the faucet claim itself.

Is there any rule against using the Faucet to exclusively increase the waged amount of the account?
As long as you're using only one account, you're fine. Faucet abuse would be: claim faucet, max bet on high multiplier, withdraw, repeat. But you wouldn't be able to continue after you withdraw, right? And I was wondering if the following scenario is considered abuse: Faucet claim: 4800 Satoshis Dice bet: 100 Satoshis on x75 multiplier Buy lottery tickets with profit That's how I've personally been using the faucet, but I also deposit fairly often as you can see in my account history

I'm very sorry, I haven't been posting in the campaign thread to thank you for every payment I've received. And I missed the part in the OP that said you get a 10% bonus every time you update the announcement thread -_- I will participate for that extra 10% and I'll mention in here when I've received the payment from now on! Thanks for running a great campaign, I think I've been a member for almost 2 years now, WOW!

I try to avoid that feeling as much as possible since it's something that feels like I have no control over it when I just let myself feel that way. And I'll probably make bad decisions because of it.
I mean I do have fun when gambling and a bit of an adrenaline rush, just not too much.

I need to be honest i had made 150% of my investment with a slot game, but i were greedy and in the same day and i believe same hour i lost all my balance playing, i thinked i reached profit soo why dont risk to try get bigger. The only place i had made some decent money were sport betting into football, later i just tryed live bets and went to casinos to spend the rest of my balance.
Lol, I would never call a deposit into a gambling site an investment, it's not like you would expect to make money from it. I personally never expect to make any money from gambling, having expectations like that really doesn't do you any good. Especially not with slot games, they're known for having the worst house edge.

For me it was pretty easy back in 2013, I had earned more than one Bitcoin just by trading, I remember having over 5 Bitcoins in my Kraken account after just 2 months of trading.
And I started out with less than 1 Bitcoin.
It's definitely still possible today with the markets being as volatile as they are now.

Great that you're offering payouts in Bitcoin for the models, but are you really the first site to offer this? I'm 99% sure that Xotika only works with Bitcoin, so getting paid in fiat isn't even possible. Anyway, it would be cool if you could update the stats after a few weeks

I would recommend switching to either Bitstamp or Kraken, never had any issues with them and most reviews are also way more positive than reviews of Coinbase.
I stopped using Coinbase after my account was blocked for a couple of days after making a deposit to a dice site from my coinbase account.

I used to do this back when the fees were just a couple of cents, that was also around the time some major exchanges got hacked, after Gox though.
Now I usually just leave my principal on the exchange and withdraw any profits if they're large enough to warrant the fees for making a withdraw.

In your case, I would just buy a ready made dice script for Bitcoin and have a freelance developer adjust the script for your Pandacoin. But ask yourself, if it really worth it to pay that much to develop a gambling site for a coin that's basically worthless?
I've seen Pandacoin when it first came out and it's still not worth anything, you should be focussing on other things if you want to make Pandacoin work.
Just my two cents.

What do you think the governments can do to avoid this? Put a limit on houses per person? Your opinions?
I don't believe that this would be a very good idea, it kinda defeats the purpose of capitalism. Anyone should be able to acquire as much property as one wants. Also, bubbles are actually a side effect of capitalism and when the bubble pops, it gives room to new investors/people to get into the market.

I guess this thread can be added to that other thread that lists how many time Bitcoin has been pronounced dead, I think the counter is up to around 130.
Can't seem to find the thread on this forum, but there are similar ones on Reddit and other blogs.
Even without a scaling solution in the near future, Bitcoin will probably still survive.

The real story here is that Bitcoin is being adopted at a phenomenal rate and that the current price spike might not be a bubble at all. I wonder what kind of advertising they do to reach those people that are completely new to Bitcoin.

If I need money, I will apply for a loan when it is no longer a way to borrow money from friends. And I almost sell my valuables because there is no money in the wallet.
Borrowing money from friends and family looks like good and easiest idea, but in my place we say that if you want lose friend borrow him money. Borrowing Bitcoins nowadays is not good idea. Price is rising so much, that in few weeks you can have 100% more to repay. Much better is take loan in bank or other institution. That way it may be done by everyone because borrowing from close friends or neighbors is common to most people. But mostly by the way we borrow money is usually a frequent dispute so that the consequences of borrowing money can make our friendship tenuous if we pay it not on time, Then as much as possible we should try to get the money we need without borrowing but we try as we look for a part-time job that can be paid after we do the job. Don't make borrowing Bitcoin as an option. By borrowing Bitcoin you yourself will handle its volatility meaning that you have a chance to get less compared to what you want. Also isn't it easier to borrow fiat currency which as of the moment is more accepted as a form of payment. Another problem is people who are desperate in money that are eligible for bank loans are rich people with good credit line so that they know that you can pay them back at a later date, people who are building businesses are usually eligible for this kind of loans. It can be a good idea to borrow Bitcoins in certain situations, but I would always try to borrow if you've got some decent collateral and for short periods of time. I don't see anything wrong with trusted members of this forum borrowing under $100 worth of Bitcoin if they have a good track record and pay it back soon. I've lent trusted members some Bitcoin in the past and haven't had any bad experiences myself

Now I have another theory, LTC has 2 minutes block time and has a very low transaction fee but why no body showing any interest? I might know why, they don't control LTC supply to be able to manipulate it.
I wouldn't say that no one is interested in Litecoin It might have been true in the past when Litecoin had essentially been the same Bitcoin, Bitcoin copycat on juice, but since Bitcoin was (and still is) mostly used for speculation, low (or high) fees don't matter a lot at the large scale. Now that Litecoin has SW and LN when Bitcoin faces potential chain split, a lot more people may finally get interested in this coin. So if people turn away from Bitcoin for whatever reason, they will most likely end up with Litecoin Litecoin has already had a really good run and I'm also kinda positive about the fact that the price hasn't risen in a way that screams bubble, now it's sitting fairly stable at around $25 - $30. If you check out what's still planned for development, you'll see that there are still a lot of features that are going to be added. You can check out the 2017 roadmap for Litecoin here: https://litecoincore.org/

If you don't want to elaborate any further on how you came to this conclusion, then it seems like this is just another conspiracy. Show us your research and then we can comment on it, but making blank statements like this, doesn't really make anyone believe you're telling the truth here.
I actually have some first hand experience with people being affected by making these 'being Satoshi' accusations. Right after the suicide of a good friend of mine, Len Sassaman, his widdow was being bombarded with pretty rude questions of him being Satoshi right after his death. After that, all these threads about finding out who Satoshi is just feel really bad and invasive.
This doesn't really have to do with what you said in your post, I'm just saying that it might not be a good idea to go on a witchhunt to find the real Satoshi.

I've got an exception for you, playing professional poker and purely relying on the stats that the HUD (Hold'em manager) gives you. Too bad that there aren't any Bitcoin poker sites supported by any good HUD's like HM. Every time I play dice or roulette or some other -EV game, I NEVER make any predictions about future bets

It's definitely a niche market you would be entering, I think that PTC sites are more unpopular than ever. But that shouldn't stop you from creating one, it could be a fun hobby. I had a PTC site when I was 17 years old, I'm 27 now and back then I made around 200 euros per month with it, so not that successful but I got some nice pocket change
