I'll try generate a chart now this time properly =)

Because it's fun, :p.

Can you also add some type of UI change to the investor page that has:

1) Your current effective rate of return (i.e., when the site is paying out 100% and you're still part of that pool, show 100%, when it's lower, show that), to keep up with expectations and to see where you stand

and

2) Have a number that denotes the max profit/change from current (i.e., if you had 1 BTC and it had gone up to 2 BTC and is now 0.5 BTC, it would be something like [1 BTC | -1.5 BTC] or something like this), to help see about how much there is to go before the break-even point?

 Hi,

 There is no interest rate , you invest as the bankroll for the moneypot gambling websites and in return you get what the gamblers of those sites lose or you lose what the gamblers of those sites win. You also pay house edge to ryan+app owner whatever the outcome is.

 Best Regards

 Miklagard

How much is the average of return ? Example just-dice is 0.25 % daily .......

Over the past 40 days, around -0.2% per day (loss of 0.2%) is the average based on personal records.

It's gone up as high as +5% in a day, but players have been winning a lot lately.

@ Investors, what do you guys think should I do to boost the traffic?

advertise on The gambling website or a contest to write an article on the blog / website  Grin

Agreed, or advertise on faucet sites/networks as well.

I don't think faucet sites are going to bring the kind of traffic that we are looking for, they will bring traffic from people looking to use the faucet which will only cut into our profits.

I would say that a signature campaign or forum advertising would likely be the most effective way to advertise.

See, my thought is that people that use faucets are pretty new to BTC and are probably looking for stuff to do with their BTC.

Also, Faucets are there for little more than to get advertising $s so I think you could get many eyes with not a lot of money.

If you think the faucet in the site is being abused, just change the rules.


Most people using faucets have no interest in buying BTC, though, and will only ever use faucets. They're the same people that go into the gambling sites and constantly beg for free money.

I'm getting 404 errors on a lot of pages... some are working and some aren't. For example, the main page keeps 404ing me, but if I click a link to a different page I can access most stuff.

This is an awesome thing to do. But is this based on total investments (i.e., when it shows investor profit = 0 it's over) or account-by-account? Like I'm currently down 8.26%, while the site profit as a whole just went back up to positive again.

Until all individual investors are at a net profit

Are you sure?
Say for example, if someone invested 1 bitcoin, lost 8% (=0.08 btc), divested all his balance except 0.00001 btc, it would take forever for that remaining 0.00001 btc to grow to 0.08001.

So if ranlo (or any one single bankroll investor) divest most of his investment, his investment profit will stay negative forever.

I think this only counts if you keep your investment going, rather than pulling it out.

Perfect, and thanks! I keep up with all my stats on a nightly basis so I can track daily return/loss/overall return, Smiley. Looking forward to (hopefully) seeing it rise again!

Site profit just dropped below 1BTC.  RIP investors.

Special investor promotion: until all investors are back in the green, 100% of MPs profit split is going direct to investors. Hopefully this time will give me a chance to evaluate the fairest way going forward.

This will not affect apps, their profit will remain identical (although their investors might be slightly less grumpy)

The profit dropped from 40 think I even saw 50,000,000 bits a few days ago to 5,688,745 bits! Who is winning ALL these coins and what is their strategy? Luckily I have been slowly divesting as the profits dropped. Any insight into this? Undecided Huh Shocked Shocked

I watched it drop 5 BTC in a matter of a minute or so (I was refreshing the page because it was wildly going down, and each refresh saw a bigger and bigger drop). And yeah, you're right. A week and a half ago or so we were up by 55 BTC+. I was up +2.5% on my investment on 07/27/15, as of today I'm down -19%, so a drop of 21.5% in a matter of a couple weeks.
I had figured a piece of multiple casinos would be somewhat of a safer investment.. I am now having second thoughts and have moved my coins elsewhere, but will be watching this closely

One thing to consider is that some casinos offer really low house edges. For example, this site is on MP and offers up to 0.01% house edge. There are also a couple that are 0.1% or so. All of these I'm sure are contributing to higher variance than normal in terms of losses.

It looks like the site is simply using Google Translate to translate the text, so brand names like “HaoBTC” are automatically translated to “Good Bitcoin”. Brand names should not be translated.

For what it's worth, Eric got back to me. If his friend doesn't end up doing the editing, he'll be getting back to me later this month to take care of it all. So one way or another, the site should be fully cleared up soon enough.

Both parties have already been PM'ed previously, but;

The payout i received this morning was short as well. About 10% this time.
I wonder whats causing the discrepancy.

That's odd, looking into it Smiley


I am still missing 32 posts  (0,0416 btc) from the payout period before last one.

Should be fixed long time ago.

There are well over 100 other participants that I need to check over too, so please bear with me (I have been made well aware of the issue Smiley). I'm still not sure if the bot 'glitched' but paid the right amount. No one is 'missing' more than $10 - $20 (from what I've seen). The amount doesn't change anything though, I will look into it and sort things out if need be.

I am in the few then I guess.  I have been taking it easy as I trust you and Bitcoin Boy and am not to worried but I was over that I will PM again.

Still best sig campaign out there.

I'm also missing some funds from the last payout... I had checked all stats prior to payout and they didn't match up afterwards.
3756  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: about BTCJAM on: August 13, 2015, 06:31:32 AM
btcjam now it's infested of scammers, just check the "scam-accusation" page here, in the forum.


btcjam was always full of scammers, it's just getting worse now. it's just too easy to scam there, I don't recommend them.

According to their stat page, it looks like A-rated borrowers are pretty solid on repayments. Do you actually have experience with loaning on there? I know going with A-rated people is a much lower interest rate, but if it's like it looks, that's a great way to minimize risk and still get return.

lost 1 bitcoin there some time in the past and I'm only reading horror stories of their non-existent service. btcjam only cares about fees, they literally do nothing to help a lender

Did you only loan to A-rated people or also B->F? This makes a huge difference.

are you aware that there are people selling A+ accounts? you just can't trust anyone on btcjam in my opinion

Ah, I wasn't. This would mean that people are basically selling their identity... that seems like a very risky transaction to me. It's not nearly as anonymous as a BCT account would be.
3757  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Looking for users to BETA-test our platform at accumining.com on: August 13, 2015, 06:29:34 AM

To confirm, this is after ~6 days? So around a 150-day ROI right now?

Well, it's 7 days in my timezone Wink , and i have 2 contracts (i have the 63 ghs contract AND the 5 ghs beta contract).
But all in all, i think i'll have my investment back in under 200 days (in case accumining still exists by then, and if the block halving has little effect on my income)

Just checked your last post (from today) and it looks like you're right. Seems to be ~200-day ROI, which isn't bad if the site stays up! Mining speed is going to hit a flatline at some point, and then mining ROI will be fairly consistent for some time.

Hi - I'm currently running the Mac wallet but have noticed that it doesn't seem to be staking the the rate it should be. Also, the performance of the whole wallet is so slow. Was thinking it may now be the time to get a windows machine, but had a few questions?

1. When I backup my wallet.dat on the Mac, can I use that file on a PC?
2. Trying to keep costs down - would a micro pc like this work:
http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Fanless-Windows%C2%AE-Baytrail-T-Quad-core/dp/B00SCBWF52/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1439222005&sr=1-3&refinements=p_n_operating_system_browse-bin%3A5945862011

Thanks!

Hi. Yes, the Mac Hyper wallet is not supported currently.

1. Yes. I've personally used my wallet.dat files from a PC and moved them to Ubuntu. You should always keep a copy of your wallet.dat file before transferring it. I would suggest keeping it on a flashdrive from your Mac. Then after you install the wallet on the new Windows machine, close the wallet, and copy (so you have a copy on your flash-drive too) your wallet.dat to your Windows computer into the folder C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Hyper.

Then when you run the wallet again, after it syncs, your funds should be the same as before.

2. Personally I think it will work fine, because Hyper doesn't seem to need much to run, but I can't be completely sure on this. I don't believe there are minimum requirements listed for running the Hyper wallet. Maybe someone who knows more about computers can handle that question.

Thank you for the response. Hopefully someone else will chime in about the hardware requirements.

Just a thought - would it be a better solution to install Ubuntu through Bootcamp and then run the Linux version of the wallet or to get a Windows micro pc? Any thoughts are appreciated.



That would depend on you personally. As long as you know how to use Bootcamp and set up Ubuntu, then it shouldn't be too difficult to set up the wallet. I believe HYPERFuture said the Linux wallet is easier than ever to get running. You can also do this before going ahead and buying another computer, so that's good. If you need any help installing Ubuntu or the Hyper wallet, feel free to ask. Smiley

Just remember to always save a copy of your wallet.dat file elsewhere. It's especially important when installing operating systems.

HYPER wallet on Git is now very easy to install on Linux.

Otherwise, a small dedicated HYPER staking machine is a great idea. Eventually, I want someone to release one of these. You could try a Raspberry Pi, if it goes well maybe you can sell dedicated, preconfigured HYPER staking machines for HYPER Smiley

Great, thanks. I think I'm going to give the Linux install on the Mac a shot this weekend and see how it goes. I'll be sure to back up the wallet.dat before attempting. I'll also be sure to post how it goes - good or bad.

Love the idea of a dedicated staking machine! Hope to set something like that up down the road, but probably not until we hit 100,000 Sats  Shocked

I like the idea of a dedicated staking machine, but this creates an issue: too many transaction splits. We need the client addition that some coins have (ENRG just added it as well) that allows you to set a threshold before staking a block. For example, if you set it at 1000, it won't try to stake a block until it would result in an earning of 1k coins or more. This keeps you from going from 2->4->8->16->32->64->128->256->...10k+ transactions within a couple weeks.

How is WP supposed to help you get visitors? What are you planning to use it for? I know of a couple faucets that bring in $25k+ a month in profit, but that's because they aren't just using the faucet -- you have to use that as a generator for traffic for other parts of your site. Faucets themselves are going to lose money.
