Is it possible to have a leveraged investment, like in Safe Dice or Just Dice?

How much is the historical EV in BTC? I'm considering investing but I'd need to know that first to try to estimate expected returns.

I'm guessing we're not going to get credited with Segwit2x?
I just realized the fork happened a few hours ago and didn't manage to withdraw my BTC Sad

I hope we do, anything else wouldn’t be fair.

Is there anyone who used this service? I would like to know the details? Do you have any feedback on it? The group in the telegram of 100 people does not inspire confidence, but it may still be ahead of this project)

What is your concern? There are some 4000 CoinLend accounts. Telegram is at 200+. Not that those numbers mean much of course.

I personally use it. Probably one of the best services I joined this year.

so is it legit?

Yes, if you set up the API correctly there’s no risk.

Is it possible to win more than one prize in the lottery? Say someone has near 100% of the lottery tickets.

Yes, just read the last page. As you can see, S0lidus won the first and second prize

What prevents someone from buying a very large percentage of the tickets, like 95%, knowing that there’s a positive EV thanks to the 1% the casino adds? I guess just the possibility that someone comes later and buys say 10 times as many tickets and “steals” her money (the EV wouldn’t change, but it would make winning more unlikely). Or is there any maximum amount of tickets you can buy?
There's a limit of 10000 tickets per player. Even with EV+, player will still have the possibility to lose all if another player wins with less tickets (unless he would be the only player in the lottery, which never happened Smiley )

So is it fine for you if someone buys 10000 tickets of every lottery you run?
Sure, why not. Sooner or later someone with tiny win chance will win that round.

Well, because you have to add 1% to the prize pool. I guess it’s fine for you because it’s just a marketing expense.

Tether and Bitfinex are a criminal gang. I will keep saying this until they will be closed (soon).
You are free to make false claims as long as you like, the rest of us will continue to disbelieve you until you bring proof. Less defamation, more (or any) facts.

Competitors and even Bcash supporters are encouraged to spread fud about Bitfinex. But anyway I still don’t get who would want to send real USD in exchange of Tethers. Actually it may make sense now that Tethers are worth more than $1 in exchanges

Bitfinex is an illegal company

How many times do I have to explain this to you mayax? Bitfinex is not doing anything illegal and your misunderstanding of licencing requirements doesn't alter that.

yes, you are right. Tethers is created from thin air.

There is not one shred of evidence to back up these false claims and plenty of evidence to support that Tethers are 100% backed by real USD.


I have been lending on Bitfinex for months and would like to keep doing so, but honestly I’m scared about this Tether stuff, so I withdrew. I know both competitors and Bcash supporters have interest in talking shit about Bitfinex, but I don’t understand the point of Tethers. Why would anyone exchange USD for them instead of directly buying BTC with USD?
The main point of USDT is in the transfer of money and less in trading, although it's now being used as a USD substitute on exchanges like Poloniex.

Here's how I use it. On my Polo account i have not only crypto, but also a lot of USDT from crypto i sold recently. Then i saw that the interest rate for lending on Bitfinex was quite high, so i began sending my USDT to Bitfinex. Without Tether, i would have had to first convert to BTC, send to Bitfinex and then convert back to USD.

I perfectly understand that. I’m talking about when Tether are originally created. In theory for a Tether to be created, someone must before send them one real USD. Tether market cap is over 1200 million now. Who is depositing that much money to Tether in exchange of tokens?

I’m very tempted to lend BTC as I did in the past (and euros if it’s possible to just send them a bank transfer). However I’m very worried about this Tether stuff, as I don’t get who can be originally sending fiat in exchange of those tokens.

The main point of Tethers is to be able to transfer value in USD without currency risk or using the banking system (speed and cost). I believe many use them to get USD onto exchanges that they cannot directly deposit at. Also, the exchanges buy them for their customers when they want to withdraw to another exchange. I imagine a large amount of the USD margin lending came into the system via Tether


So basically those depositing USD to get Tethers created would be people that for some reason can’t buy in traditional exchanges like Bitstamp, Kraken, GDAX, etc. So it must be either people that want to invest a large amount of money at once (which isn’t possible on those exchanges because of low withdrawal limits), that want to buy cryptocurrency fast (assuming the process to get Tethers is faster than being verified in exchanges) or that their money ins’t accepted for some reason but Tether does accept it (because of being located in a country with a laxer regulation)

Does anyone actually believe Tether received 305M $ in wire transfers in the last 5 days?

Yes, only a handful of people are determined to see everything in a negative light.

Institutional investors are even hesitant about the regulated futures so far and the trading volume at the CBOE has been pretty dismal.

That is to ignore that CBoE is a very small futures exchange and the contract is only supported by one broker so far. Also, it rather misses the purpose of futures. They are an instrument for trading and hedging primarily and are not used by investors.

Yet people claim that investors are wiring 305M $ to buy Tethers in order to buy cryptocurrencies in just 5 days?

Why not? Investors that actually want to hold Bitcoins cannot do it via the futures.



Why would anyone deposit USD to get Tether to buy another cryptocurrency afterwards, instead of just directly buying BTC with those USD (and then trading BTC for other crypto currencies if she wants)?

I was lending some BTC at Bitfinex, but I really don’t understand what’s going on with Tethers and it makes me think they are just being created out of thin air to buy real BTC.

I wonder how we could get more action, I'm sure Just Dice has way more potential.

I've used a similar service (aivren/poloniexlendingbot) but to be honest the interest rates available on poloniex are total garbage, so not worthwhile. Not looked at margin lending rates on bitfinex, but I doubt it's much better.

They are much better.

60 days - 20k to 3k........ Huh

So?

Where do all those spammers come from?
379  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: 💹 Coinlend.org - The lending bot for Poloniex and Bitfinex on: December 11, 2017, 11:06:23 AM
Another doubt: If interest rates keep dropping while the order isn't filled, does the bot cancel it and change it to a lower interest rate so it's taken?

Sure thats the point of the service. It will check your account every 2 minutes and recalculates the interest rates to maximize the interest return!

That’s fantastic. How does it choose which interest rate to offer?

I'd add some more columns to the table: EV since you invested ((wagered*edge)/bankroll), and then a column for annualized returns (both for EV and actual profit).
