I'll repost this part since you didn't see it the first time you replied since I edited it:

"I'm currently in the process of starting another business and am in the introduction phase where I'll have to do market-penetration strategies of below cost to try and gain some market share sadly.

I would recommend trying to introduce a chat to your site. A lot of sites especially gambling sites do well when there is a chat. People like to talk about their feelings and their beliefs. If you got a lot of "smart investors" talking then your site is going to have business (seeing as you are an options broker).

The problem I see you guys facing is you are in the gambling thread, a lot of people you would be marketing to, your target area won't be looking for this business anywhere near the gambling section (I last saw your site there I thought?), they see it as investing, not gambling. But that market could also be a downside to you as they might be the ones who make the most money off you guys. Curious, is your options writing computer based, I assume it is?

Your potential other side of the target market since you look to be a small options broker, probably knows very little on options. This is the tons of gamblers who truly gamble whether for recreation or not, and look through all the forum pages of gambling. Your best market would be the tons of people who gamble small amounts, get them to understand what options is and how they can get rich quick overnight if they bet correctly and markets move. I would try to explain options to start in your social media page. Try to make it as simple as possible. Visiting your website I felt overwhelmed and didn't know if it was an options exchange, buying/selling exchange or simply just a mini version of mpex or other areas that offer their own options."

I just sent to you a PM. Please check.

one question regarding coinut, are you able to deposit btc into international debit cards?

edit: the site is pretty slow at the moment. Why dont people host with amazon aws to avoid ddos attacks?

We do not deposit BTC into debit cards at this moment. I don't know any other sites can do that.
The attack has stopped. The site is in AWS, but the bandwidth and CPU are limited so it can still be attacked.

Someone is spending money to make the attack. It can't last forever.

I also guess so. But it's a lot of fun to chat with this guy.  Grin

We (https://coinut.com) were just attacked by a team called DD4BC using DDoS.

DD4BC Team <dd4bc@safe-mail.net>:
Hello,

Your site is extremely vulnerable to DDoS attacks.

I want to offer you info how to properly setup your protection, so that you can't be ddosed.

If you want info on fixing it, pay me 1 BTC to 13adm65yzzre7fLKSFZayQ8dYyxgXaVyMU


Xinxi Wang:
Thanks. Yes, I know this. It's currently a little vulnerable to DDoS attacks. But we just cannot afford the money to fix it at this moment. I will definitely contact you when we are ready.

Then they just sent millions of requests. And it's difficult for me to open the site.


Xinxi Wang:
Man, you just selected the wrong target. Maybe you should try this after a few months.

DD4BC Team:
OK, contact me within a few months and I will stop the attack. Smiley

CloudFlare will not help.

And one more thing: Price is 1 BTC today. Tomorrow it will increase to 2 BTC and will keep increasing for every day of delay.


Xinxi Wang:
Man, I am a computer science PhD student, and I don't have so much money.


DD4BC Team:
Good for you. I'm not sure how is your formal education going to help in this situation, but...good luck.


Xinxi Wang:
I also think so.


Xinxi Wang:
I am wondering how much it costs for you to send so much traffic?

DD4BC Team:
I'm using botnet which I paid 0 USD, so my cost is 0 USD. Smiley

Xinxi Wang:
Pretty cool.


BTW, I simply blacklisted their IP addresses. The site is now working although they are still attacking. It's a bit slower though. Anyone has good methods for this kind of attacks?

Options give more profit if the price is volatile. I will start buying options when there is a movement in bitcoin price.

Yes, have you tried recently? It's quite volatile.
488  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Coinut.com - The only Bitcoin Options Exchange on: December 21, 2014, 01:37:18 PM
What's the BTC exchange you get price?

We use Bitstamp, Bitfinex, Karen, BTC-E, BTCChina CampBX. We calculate a average of these price ticks weighted by the bid and ask amount.

What is the pay? I have a degree in finance and accounting but took many marketing classes at college to help further my past businesses when I was doing them. They were quite successful at the time when the high margins were there in trading. Let me know.

Your profile looks good. But since you have negative trust, I won't pay any upfront. You do the job, and I pay you for the results. I generally pay marketing people well.
So how will you measure results? And what do you mean by well? Part time / full time? Need more specifics here (not just for me but for everyone).

OK, you know, my ultimate goal is to attract people trading in our site. We can measure the results using number of clicks, number of registered users, and number of users who traded etc. We can also share part of the commission with you for the clients that you bring in.

Coinut.com needs a marketing people.

We have been running a signature campaign for a while. So if you only know how to run a signature campaign, please don't contact.

We also got a Facebook page and a twitter account, and we need someone that really know how to do social network marketing. If you have only superficial knowledge about it, don't contact.

We are also considering SEO. But we know this is not going to work immediately.

If you still think that you can really do it, please contact us.

Hi guys, I just issued your payments. Please check your Coinut account.
495  Economy / Speculation / Re: Made a very good profit @ Coinut - 0.236 BTC on: December 09, 2014, 12:19:18 PM
Maybe the thread should be in Speculation instead of in Gambling?
496  Economy / Speculation / Re: Made a very good profit @ Coinut - 0.236 BTC on: December 09, 2014, 12:18:34 PM
Just checked ndhc's trading history. He is making profit consistently. I guess he does have some skills.
497  Economy / Speculation / Re: Made a very good profit @ Coinut - 0.236 BTC on: December 09, 2014, 12:16:43 PM
Guys, it's an options exchange. It's not a gambling site although you can gamble there. There is a lot of liquidity. The liquidity provider just puts one order at a time. If you take one, he will put another. I guess he is just being cautious as it's a fairly new market.

Oh, you reminded me. The previous audit report was out of dated. I just updated it.

Okay, Just saw that you have sent the payment to coinut's deposit address.
waiting for 3confirmations Grin
Thanks for updating the google doc too, I hope we all have been enrolled for the next payment period too.
Just an advice, wouldnt it have been better if you would have made changes in out account balance by changing our balance in you database? That would have been pretty more easy.

We have a program that periodically checks the consistency of the whole database and logs to detect fraudulences or security issues.
Directly changing the database will result in an inconsistent state of the database and causes false alarms. So we don't do this.
