Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but a political analysis I've read recently is:

Buttigieg is growing because the establishment has sort of cancelled their support to Warren & Biden as they realized how little chances they actually have because of n factors and opted instead for this weird, almost unexperienced but relatively progressive and lacking a scandal in his biography, dude called Buttigieg.

Warren was never the "establishment candidate" but Biden - yeah... he appears to be done unless some miracle happens over the next couple of weeks. A while ago I thought those two would be frontrunners. Never would have pictured Butigieg up there, good for him.

If the establishment had their way Bernie wouldn't be at the top. We'll see after Super Tuesday.

I'm glad he's over, this guy's a weird creep to say the least and smells like a proponent of status quo. And I agree with what you said about Bernie, in fact I think his ascension as a Democrat candidate was postponed by the establishment since the last election. This time though I don't think they'll be able to null him again.

I have no doubt left in my mind that the Democratic elections is happening between Bloomberg and Sanders, and while the former has the power of money but the latter has the support of the people. Furthermore I’m finding it difficult as to who’ll win but as of now I feel that Sanders shall win it, unless Bloomberg decides to blow him out of the park with his spending power.

4702  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: BitDice Robbed Investors? CSNO lost 80% value on: February 18, 2020, 01:59:07 PM
I believe Joksim's claim relies on 3 key points he has been trying to make.

1) CSNO Token has lost value

Okay, the token has lost value, true but he is taking his numbers from sources that aren't reliable. BitDice does not reach high trading volumes and thus any estimation given by Etherscan is likely to be wrong. Secondly as it was stated, BitDice buys tokens back from those who wish to sell them at a relatively good price atleast comparing to the estimations Joksim has been making.

2) The money that was invested has been "wasted" or some of it has disappeared

As my last reply states, much of the assumptions that have been made by people have not been thought through and are simply speculation and the money is still there.

3) BitDice has not been delivering its promises

This is probably the most notable one as it's clear BitDice hasn't yet been able to deliver many of the initial promises that have been made. We have addressed that fact and have also stated that the new website is in the final stage of development. In other words, promises have been delayed a lot which is not something we're hiding. But we're working on delivering on those promises.

Joksim is trying to make a case about how the money that has already been spent has gone into vain which he keeps repeating. One doesn't have to look farther than the quarterly reports to see what the money has been spent on. The expenses haven't been directed at something specific only but on the entire project. I don't understand half of the gimmicks it takes to run a casino let alone something that aims to serve fiat users. I am fairly sure Joksim doesn't understand exactly how complex everything is to set up either.

So to simplify: the money that has been spent has not gone into nothing. It's an ongoing progress and despite seemingly static, it is definitely not.

We've been trying to explain that the promises that have yet to be delivered are going to be delivered despite the long delays.

Now my conclusion about this scam accusation is that its aim is to make BitDice lose its reputation. Question is: what's the gain from this?

@BoXXoB it's really sad that you have to reply to these same questions again and again, and I’m also surprised to see popular and known members falling for his words but then again each one is entitled to his/her opinion. On the face of it yes it’s clear that he has an agenda to harm Bitdice goodwill, but then again when I read his old posts it kind of makes me wonder does he even mean what he says.

I have decided to quote two of his old posts : in the first one he comes in Bitdice Ann, and praises other sites and then later on he says that he loves Bitdice and wants them to be number one hence my question is how does he plan to help Bitdice become number one by starting this kind of thread?

Quote

Look at some of their competitors Stake and Bitsler they are both unique and more interesting and keep customers engaged in their activities.


Quote

I'm trying to be constructive and to motivate team to.bring new site live faster.
I'm not against Bitdice I just expected them to become No. 1 dice site I love them and playing since launch


It takes years to build a reputation and only minutes to destroy it by reading and quoting half baked truths, hence I hope the community will bear with Bitdice as new updates come and to show that Bitdice really cares about it’s members and it’s goodwill check this post and judge Alex and his intentions.

Quote

today I was trying to bet 0.0498 BTC on sports and got that partner api error , so I contacted support and told them about it and they credited my balance back
then I made a withdrawal request for that 0.0498 and got it instantly as usual , but after few hours I opened the site and found that the money was added back to my balance again after that failed bet

after reporting it Alex was kind enough to let me have that 500$ in my balance even it's not mine and I don't deserve it

thank you very much Alex and all Bitdice family , you really made my day  Smiley

Addiction, mentally ill, health symptoms, etc. Too much negativity in the gambling industry, especially in this forum where ironically casinos have paid a lot of users.

You know what? You are a gambler even though you haven't realized it.

When you were a kid in school, you gamble in your exam when you didn't know the answer. Should I mark option A or B or C?

You gamble in your career path, your spouse, your children's education, literally everything that is unknown.

But it doesn't involve money, sir? You gamble in your purchasing and investment decisions as well.

Inspired by this debate: https://www.debate.org/opinions/is-gambling-morally-wrong

Thank you for reading, let's be more positive and tell me a funny/interesting story about your gambling experience here. Gambling should be for fun, not for getting rich.

I’m a gambler and I used to have the compulsive gambling disorder and I wasn’t happy with my life, slowly and steadily I accepted this fact and then I told myself that it’s not always about the money let’s gamble only for the thrill and that’s when my life changed.

I finally gave up on my compulsive gambling habits and then I began to gamble responsibly, which not only saved me lots of money but also gave me lots of satisfaction in life.

Lastly I would like to say that being a gambler is not wrong, but cursing yourself for being a gambler is wrong so I would urge all to accept themselves and approve of themselves and then see how life suddenly changes for good.

4704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: February 18, 2020, 07:28:38 AM
Champions is back!

Finally.

Only 3 attackers for Atletico? Huh

We really should beat them tomorrow, they’re a pale shadow of the team who reached two CL Finals. They’ve played 24 games in La Liga & only won 10.

They play ultra defensive though & I have a feeling that it might be 0-0. We’re by far the better team but I think they’ll park the bus & limit any space to play in.

We’ll qualify over 2 legs, they won’t handle the atmosphere at Anfield in the 2nd leg but tomorrow will be tough.
Like I said we should win but I predict 0-0 & a really boring game of few chances & them diving, wasting time & using the dark arts.

I don’t blame Atletico for choosing a defensive squad as they can only beat Liverpool by playing negative football (or like Mourinho would say parking the bus), because this season Liverpool have been unstoppable and no team in their right mind would play attacking football against them hence this looks like a wise decision to me.

Finally Champions league is back. Can't wait for these games. Though it's just 1st leg games and teams are probably not going to risk too much now.
Atletico - Liverpool. I think we can't expect many goals in this game, I pick under 2.5 goals @1.6. Atletico have difficult season, so Liverpool win @2.15 looks attractive.
Borussia - PSG. I think we can see great match, both teams are scoring a lot in their leagues. Maybe I will go with Borussia win, cuz they are great at home.

Well,  I don’t think that in the match between Atletico and Liverpool we will see many goals.
Both teams have very good defense.
I also think that Borussia have more chances to win at home but finally Paris SG is better team and they will pass in the next phase of CL.
Liverpool also.

Also I’m excited to see who’ll come on top between Mbappe (PSG) and Haaland (Dortmund) as these two youngsters are the future of football, and some have even compared their rivalry to Ronaldo and Messi though I personally feel that it’s too early for this kind of comparison.

4705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: February 18, 2020, 03:03:14 AM
Very disappointing outcome of the match, Chelsea didn't play that badly to lose 2-0 to united. When I saw the lineup, I was furious but after taking sometime to think, I just hope Lampard's gamble paids off. He rested our top scorer for the champions league game coming soon and started players like Batshuayi which cost use this match with the numerous chances he missed.

Giroud had an impact that was worth mentioning, his linkup passes where superb and that brilliant header that got rules out by VAR for offside, just wished he started instead of Batshuayi. Pedro was confused although the match as his presence wasn't not felt.

Mount has been criticized all season but that free kick was something else, more from him in that manner and he might just win back the Chelsea supporters heart. Nevertheless the boys tried their best and it's disappointing to know that Ole was able to beat us in all competition this season.

Ps: Ighalo physicality shouldn't be underestimated, he got alot of goals in him. Congratulations on his debut (which he almost scored).

@CryptopreneurBrainboss I had a gut feeling which told me that I should wager a bet on Manchester United to win the match, but since they have not produced consistent results this season I avoided placing a bet and now I regret it lol.

The match would have been turned in Chelsea’s favour had Maguire been given the red card when the score was goalless, now whether it was a red card or not I guess it’s difficult to say as each one will have different opinions regarding it.

I believe Chelsea didn’t play that bad, but they were screwed by VAR who disallowed two of their goals and that really impacted their rhythm.

As a Manchester United fan I’m happy with those three points as it moves us one step closer to play in the champions league, and Chelsea fans should be worried as their top 4 spot is no longer secured.

4706  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mail Bombing in exchange of Bitcoin on: February 17, 2020, 05:13:47 PM
An anonymous person in Netherlands is bombing letters just to ask Bitcoin for him to stop what he's doing. This mailbomber wants Bitcoin and he won't stop unless he gets the Bitcoin payment he wants.

First bombing happens in Amsterdam when a worker tosses a package when he heard a hissing sound while arranging the mail. Fortunately no one got injured with the explosion. The second bombing happens less than an hour after the first bombing in Kerkrade. Although no one also got injured, there's a note asking for bitcoin to prevent further bombings.

With the investigation of the police, they said that both bombings are connected yet they have no link about the person who's exploding things up. They also haven't revealed the amount of Bitcoin the bomber was asking, but they're still doing further investigation.

This is also not the first time someone asked for Bitcoin in Netherlands. Almost the same incident happened last 2015, both were bombing things and asking for bitcoin.

Source:
https://cointelegraph.com/news/a-mailbomber-in-the-netherlands-wants-a-btc-payment-to-stop-blowing-things-up




It's a little alarming that they would really go that far just to ask for bitcoin. I don't think it's a big explosion but they can still hurt other people and they're damaging the image of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency as well. I don't know why would they do that because obviously, the police won't just send them Bitcoin so the explosion would stop. Because if they will do that, then everyone might just do the same in order to receive bitcoin so they'll just keep on investigating until they caught the suspect.


PS: I'm gonna delete this if it was off-topic


Though I don’t know who this person is but if I had to take a guess then I would suspect him to be a jobless youth who’s decided to take the easy way out, but I’m truly disappointed in the path that’s he’s chosen to earn bitcoins. Further this won’t effect bitcoin but it’ll definitely create panic around local residents, and which in turn may impact their tourism if this guy is not caught fast.
4707  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy on Friday and Sell on Monday on: February 17, 2020, 01:47:46 PM
The researcher found that the average lowest price of bitcoin was at  6 am UTC time on Fridays and the best time to invest or buy bitcoin.


If you would have done this in the week-end just passed, you would have bought at around 10240$ and sold at 9790$. Not a good business.
The morale of the story is: don't just go by various self-called specialists, some don't know sh*t and Bitcoin market is more volatile than the "rules" they want so badly to find out.


Still the market price of bitcoin was volatile the study is justs getting the average so you cannot rely on this analysis all the time.

This is the only correct part of the analysis imho.
This is the reason why so many new investors are having a hard time or deciding to quitbon crypto.
Those guys who always falls into those sweet talks or so called TA's advice are the ones who lose so much.
Do your own research don't let them decide for your money.

I’m really surprised to know that people are so naive and they yet fall for such idiotic claims made by their analysts, and god only knows when will they realise that no one can predict correctly about bitcoin prices. @NeuroticFish very well said and I hope no one from here decided to purchase on a Friday and then decided to sell today, also I hope you guys will follow the basic rule i.e. buy bitcoins on the dips irrespective of the day, and sell it when you’re in profits.

They do read the suggestions here's a quote from one of their old post. I guess they're not that vocal unlike the other admins but I don't see anything wrong with it though.

We read everything  Wink Now we are testing dates and prizes
They will read here, they will even make changes according to stuff they read here, that is given and kudos to them for doing it like that. However, not responding is not really way to go about that. Just to give an example, lets say someone says "it would be great to have a XYZ game here" and they read this and see that people agree and they read that and decide that it is actually good idea to add that XYZ game and they move on and tell the developers to build that and in the end months later they have that game.

Now that sounds good right? What about them also saying here after someone asked "we have decided to make the XYZ game, it will be ready in some months" to let people know? Would that be too hard? Or too difficult for them? It would be very easy, and yet they would still not do that, that is the problem.
There is nothing we can do about them not caring or at least not answering here, by talking and writing here all we can achieve is getting them to read and further not care about it so there is no point. If they were a team that cared a bit and saw this maybe they would respond, however since the whole topic is the fact that they are now moving towards their own forum and not here, there is no point of criticizing the move here, maybe a better option would be giving the feedback on their own forum so they could potentially read there a lot better and care about it more, plus there would be a higher chance of getting a response there as well.

In the end as the casino is legit and does nothing wrong, the way they run their business is their own right and can't be really judged, they have done nothing wrong and never scammed anyone, wanting their own forum instead of this topic is not something we can intervene.

Windice would have faced lots of criticism had they replied here and then failed to deliver, but the very fact that they’re able to deliver says it all that they respect their members wishes and will go to any lengths to incorporate those wishes. Furthermore I have often seen those officials accounts that post here have limited knowledge about the site, and hence they refrain from answering any questions so I feel that it’s best for you’ll to watch their dedicated forum for new site updates.

Just to bring some positivity to this thread . Deposited today 0.3 ETH to claim the 100 % bonus ,  so started with 0.6 ETH , turned it into 2 ETH , succesfully wagerred the rollover requirement . And withdrew , got the withdrawal in max 5 min .  
So I'm very pleased with their platform.

@AlexSimion I have been visiting this thread for quiet a while now, and I’m glad to see your post because these accusations posts against them had to end and now let’s hope that these guys can do some business in peace.

We did tried to reach the guys that have put negative trust explaining that the case is very old and has been resolved with a refund and there were never any accusation for DD since then, but no one seems to be bothered even answering us.

Can anyone suggest or know if there is any formal procedure for appeal?
Negative trust can't just remain forever there should be some way to clear your name, or?

I like reading your message, you are very positive and you are willing to do things for the feedback to be remove.
For a business like yours, you need to have a good reputation and hopefully whatever problem will be sorted out... and yes I agree with some who recommended you to open a new thread and maybe the community will review the red tag and could provide a possible solution to that.

good luck!

I don’t know if there’s any way to remove a negative feedback or not, but what you could do is invite few reputed members of this forum and give them some funds on their site account and ask then ask them to post their reviews out here.

Also make sure you post the names of those members in this Ann, and also ask those members to mention it in their reviews so that no one can claim later on that it was a paid review and not a genuine review.

Top players for this week.  Wink

fightemhard283 this week has wagered an extraordinary amount > 5BTC. This is insane and on this piece of info I bet this is a whale because I wouldn't imagine it otherwise.

The fact that you attracted a whale on your site indicates that at least something is going right, mind to speculate what you think this factor might be?
The site is fine as just always, but anyone can do wager with small amount. I don't really understand where the FUD started coming from but I will just guess butthurt competence.

@milewilda thanks for the weekly update and even though everyone’s eyes are on fightemhard283 my eyes only lit up when I saw our favourite whale aka HDF, though he’s been playing small bets for quiet a while now but I hope that soon he too will wager those big bets like he used to wager before. @josephdd1 whales have always been coming to bitdice and honestly there’s nothing to speculate at this moment, except that I can only assume he saw what Bitdice has to offer and was happy to play out there.


Snip
Premier league is not a great example of this for the year but even if you do want to check out premier league, Leicester was just one season, look at the favorites to win the championship every single year and look at how many games they normally won and lost etc and you will see that most of the time you would make a profit, sure there would be bad seasons but in the past 20+ years there would be 50% chance the team that go on to win the championship is the favorites at the start of the season as well. Plus all I am saying is, look at every week and look at all the favorites for the games, not just top ones but ALL games of premier league every week and there is definitely at least one team that wins that suppose to lose just from the odds.

So, it could be like a Southampton versus west ham type of game, all I mean is odds are definitely not helping too much since any team that is 3.00+ odds to win may end up winning every week.

It seems to me that you do lots of research than I do as I only research about the top four or six teams only, therefore I feel that you should often post your analysis here, or in the gambling discussion as it could help lots of people including me take informed decisions if we wish to place bets on teams that are below the top 6.

Since symphonized is here and talked about the price for second time in a row this time, for the last time could you please tell us if the price has anything to do with wagering amounts? I do not mean just in bitcoin terms because I am sure back in the day when bitcoin was 200-300 bucks there was more bitcoins gambled which is obvious, however I want to know in dollar terms, when bitcoin was 7k just a month or two months ago, how much dollar was gambled on average per day versus now at over 10k how much dollar is gambled?

I know you want to know what we do when bitcoin price goes up but that is a two way street and I would love to hear what you guys do when price goes up as well, if you guys get a lot more people gambling, if you guys get less money gambled, like what happens when prices change?

@davinchi I’m not sure about other gamblers but in my case bitcoin prices do matter a lot, as higher the price less  satoshis I need to use for wagering and when bitcoin prices rally upwards then I tend to save lots of satoshis which I can use to gamble later on. Also not sure why you’re asking about dollars, as this is a crypto based casino and @symphonized is here only to announce site related stuff, or keep the members out here engaged hence if you need anything specific ask their site support for help.

Beware of recent phishing scam related to new Coronavirus.
Scammers try to use mass panic and fear to get your data, information, money and crypto.

In this case they are using WHO World Health Organization logo and bad english language and grammar.
They ask you to click on link (do NOT do this) that will direct you to fake WHO website with fake 'safety measures'
All they want now is your email and to click 'verify', then it redirects you to real WHO page.

This is first reported by Sophos Security Team.

What to do?

- Never let yourself feel pressured into clicking a link in an email. Most importantly, don’t act on advice you didn’t ask for and weren’t expecting. If you are genuinely seeking advice about the coronavirus, do your own research and make your own choice about where to look.
- Don’t be taken in by the sender’s name. This scam says it’s from “World Health Organization”, but the sender can put any name they like in the From: field.
- Look out for spelling and grammatical errors. Not all crooks make mistakes, but many do. Take the extra time to review messages for telltale signs that they’re fraudulent – it’s bad enough to get scammed at all without realising afterwards that you could have spotted the fraud up front.
- Check the URL before you type it in or click a link. If the website you’re being sent to doesn’t look right, stay clear. Do your own research and make your own choice about where to look.
- Never enter data that a website shouldn’t be asking for. There is no reason for a health awareness web page to ask for your email address, let alone your password. If in doubt, don’t give it out.
- If you realise you just revealed your password to imposters, change it as soon as you can. The crooks who run phishing sites typically try out stolen passwords immediately (this process can often be done automatically), so the sooner you react, the more likely you will beat them to it.
- Never use the same password on more than one site. Once crooks have a password, they will usually try it on every website where you might have an account, to see if they can get lucky.
- Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) if you can. Those six-digit codes that you receive on your phone or generate via an app are a minor inconvenience to you, but are usually a huge barrier for the crooks, because just knowing your password alone is not enough.

I’m reading about a scam based on the Coronavirus for the first time, and truth be told even I would have fallen for it due to the panic it has created in my mind hence I wouldn’t be surprised if people too are falling for it. However having said that I would never have clicked that url, because I have formed a new habit i.e. to go to the official site and download any information that I may need. Further I condemn this kind of scam as the world needs to be united in tackling this virus, rather than finding ways to profit from people’s panic caused by this virus.

I can tell you all from experience that it is very hard to maintain the percentage going up while claiming free rolls as once you reach a higher claim level and claim you will then need to wager even more as the free claim is paying a lot more. The problem you will face is that you could lose trying to maintain staying at that higher free claim level. That is what happened to me so now I just wager a little each time and claim the free rolls and build up the reward points and convert them into 1000% free roll claims. This is for anyone wanted just to claim free sats, build up your reward points and claim the 1000% and try and claim as much as you can in that 24 hour period.
This is best policy now from today I am also going to use this because playing for increase your level is never been good idea I try few time and every time I lost all my funds with no serious gain now I am using my rewards for earning good amount of tickets and 1000% because this is best use of these rewards which are not in use for long time.

@vella85 thanks for sharing this great tip I guess I was making the same mistake like others here were making, now I know exactly how to earn more satoshis from Freebitco. Also how much maximum satoshis have you been able to redeem per hour, and how long did you take to achieve it?.

Sportsbooks are a marvelous impeccable example of predictive gambling where you have to know which team is better and which team is worse, sure there has been upsets in sports probably at least once a week but at least the favorites are always known before, so you are asked to know these things before the game starts and gamble accordingly.
Upsets doesn't usually happen once a week, there's no way to determine how many times like these incidents would come.

It varies from the kind of sports you're betting and following.

@squallLeonhart upsets are not guaranteed to be weekly only, as they can happen anytime in the entire season too and the best example of this is Leicester City who won the premier league out of the blues. Furthermore another example is Manchester City who are having a nightmarish season in the premier league, and if you would have used your favourite team theory then you would have lost lots of money as they have lost many matches this season.

This dude literally played 9 games, any of which could be a loss at any moment, won all 9 of them without a single loss and decided "nope, not gonna happen" on the 9th one, 8.5 correct answers of 9 questions yields a bit of profit whereas all 9 correct yields like 22 bitcoin, that difference is way too big but still worth to have at the side for cases like losing during the game.

Thankfully he made a lot of money afterwards. I still have trouble winning on NBA games that I religiously watch, if I were to ever bet on 9 games one night, I would probably get like 4 or 5 of them correct at most, I can't imagine any day 9 teams I think will win, go out there and actual win, all of them, at the same freaking night, that sounds as impossible as me learning how to fly by flapping my arms around.

I have no doubt in mind that this user was a whale, and it’s indeed sad that he missed out on such a big win but then again I’m also happy for him as he has was able to win such a big amount in the end. @el kaka22 I totally get that feeling of being awestruck by how these gamblers wagers such big amounts, because we can’t even think of wagering with such big amounts. As far as his game streak is concerned we can never be sure whether he’s a pro at analysing these games, or it was his lucky day he got it right.

Just one EPL match this evening: Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leicester City (8pm kick-off)


Manchester City have been banned from all European competition for two seasons. They have also been fined 30 million Euros (£25m) after being found to have committed "serious breaches" of UEFA club licensing and financial fair play regulations.

They will appeal the decision. For more on the story here is the link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51510284

Manchester City’s troubles have just began as fans from many teams are calling for their points to be deducted this season, and even in the next season which will effect their title challenge. Furthermore the fans are even demanding that they be stripped of their premier league titles, that they won during the period where they intentionally broke the rules. Also I feel this will be used an excuse by Pep to walk away from the club at the end of the season, as he’s been itching to leave the club for quiet a while now.

How is Pogba's condition recovering from his injury?
Yeah indeed Pagba is a good real Madrid player and he sure will spend money to recruit him into his squad but actually I'm still in doubt because if I move to Real Madrid and only to be on the bench then his popularity will decrease because there are many main players good from Pogba.
Pogba is good but I won't say he is good for Real Madrid or a good substitute for Casemiro. Pogba is not a defensive midfielder and he tend to play more in the half of competitor on the pitch.

The selfishness of Pogba will bring lot of troubles to Deal Madrid if he moves to the club. I don't believe the other stats in the club will welcome him there.


I have read local sports news that Pogba really wants to leave but he is not upright to see Manchester United continue to decline may be considered kemabli and still survive.

Yeah indeed Pogba still has selfishness like Balotelli and his career end was less brilliant because of that selfishness, I think Pogba can still balance about that.

I’m not sure why people believe that Pogba is heading to Real Madrid, and even if he does why will he be a bench player out there?. As a Manchester United fan I have seen him play a lot, and I can tell you guys all he needs is the right kind of motivation and players that can push him to his limits and then you’ll see a different version of Paul Pogba. Furthermore I feel that he’s heading towards Juventus, but of course there’s no real confirmation to this and we will have to wait till the summer transfer window to confirm this.

I'm hoping that the test series between New Zealand and India is a lot closer then the T20 and ODI series as it was one sided in both series with each team winning the series easily. New Zealand now have the winning momentum and now they need to carry this on into the test series where they need to improve from the test series against Australia. Playing at home will help New Zealand but I think India will be too strong for them and will most likely win.

On paper at least, India holds a major advantage over New Zealand. India is currently the no.1 ranked test side (as per the latest ICC rankings) and they are far ahead of the no.2 side (Australia). They are ranked #2 in ODI format and #4 in the T20 format. So if we go by this, India should be more comfortable playing test matches against New Zealand, rather than playing ODI or T20.

While you have correctly stated India’s current rankings you have forgotten an important part, that most of their victories came while playing at home, and playing in New Zealand will be a completely different scenario for them hence I feel that this test series will be very difficult for team India. @vella85 I wouldn’t be surprised if New Zealand managed to cause an upset and beat India, because they know the ground conditions better than India and also like you said they have the winning momentum and confidence with them so this series definitely won’t be a one sided contest.

Let me first start out by saying I was very optimistic about the "bug bounty" program which I saw posted by Fortune Jack throughout numerous boards, but after my experience today, and I can safely say that it is backed by absolutley nothing on their end.

I sent numerous emails to their support team, I was told to email different members of their team after creating an account, and no one would even answer a single question I had about their program and the scope involved.
Online casino's do not have a history of running their own bug bounty programs, nor do they work with outside companies. I took great care to approach them as professionally as possible, and not have the tone as if I was attempting to use my knowledge to extort them into paying a high bounty. After over 14 hours, not only did they never take a minute to acknowledge me, my questions, or anything at all, but they also closed my ticket without with a single word.

Can't say that I am shocked though, so after trying and failing to take the path they created for these situations, I would rather alert the playrbase of Fortune Jack to the complete disregard they have shown regarding a severe vulnerability.

Literally every single one of your accounts can have your 2FA bypassed, reset, and resigned to any device a malicious actor decides to. The process takes less than 20 - seconds, and this makes account takeover an easier process than actually registering for an account in the first place.

I have been a long time player at Fortune Jack myself, but I just wanted to at least get the word out to the Bitcoin Talk community that I would strongly consider not leaving any funds to sit in your wallets. If this reaction from half a dozen of the workers at this organization, I have no faith in their ability to keep your funds secure.

This entire process is also only possible because of their negligence and their code. This does not involve any payloads to be done on the attacker end.

Be alert, and be safe out there with your funds. Hopefully companies begin to take their customers security more seriously in the future.


Edit: If you would like proof, make an account (DO NOT SEND ME YOUR REAL, LIVE ACCOUNT) and link a 2fA with Google Authentication. I will have it disabled and resigned to my own number in less than a minute.


It is against the rules to have multiple accounts so that shouldn't be done. But someone who has never gambled on FortuneJack could create a new account and send you the details. I am really curious how this will be resolved.

Is anyone who has no account interested in trying this out? 

@Bugsquasha that’s a serious allegation and I hope you’ll be able to prove it if someone can provide you with a account, however @Pmalek has correctly pointed out that none of us can have more than one account and therefore we can’t provide you with a account but I’m hoping team FJ will investigate your claim. Furthermore premier league is back so here are my picks: Bruno, Aguero, Girioud, Salah and Ali.
4720  Other / Politics & Society / Facebook Dating Feature Fails EU Privacy’s Test!!! on: February 14, 2020, 05:02:08 PM
Facebook had made it’s intentions clear a while ago that they wanted to overtake Tinder, and since they already have unrestricted access to our data they decided to play Cupid but were halted by the EU as they failed to provide the necessary privacy related information. After this debacle Facebook has responded by saying that they’re not obliged to inform the authorities about the launch, and on top of that now they’re claiming that they intentionally delayed the launch to make it more perfect (Lies and more Lies). I don’t know about you’ll but every-time I open Facebook I don’t want to be seeing people whom I should consider dating, I’m already tired of seeing the people I don’t know in the friends you may know feature. What do you’ll think of this will you be okay with Facebook playing Cupid for you’ll?, or you’ll yet prefer swiping on Tinder?.
