This legend of the "one man show" may not be correct. The message refers to "we" and also years pass and things evolve, maybe he let other people iinto the project.
It's not a legend. Using "we" doesn't anything - most services use it even if it's just man behind them, it's just look more solid. Maybe something has changed and he hired some more people, but considering how things are done on Coinpot, I doubt about it.

I'm not from OK so I won't answer it, but I will give you visibility bump with this post. I check question and I can say that your poll is well made. But in question "How did you obtain cryptocurrency you own" I would allow multiple answer options.
Will you publish survey results somewhere? I'm curious to see how many people first hear about other currency than Bitcoin Smiley.

Spoiler alert.
@Pffrt, yeah, I think it should be 490, there is mistake in question. I even checked it with calculator Cheesy.
13/15. I must admit that questions about activity were difficult. I already forgot about most activity things and requirements because it's not so important when we have merit system and my rank is already high. And I also used to think that only theymos know who is merit source. Maybe you have reference which would confirm that staff also can see them?
4844  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2019/20 on: June 02, 2020, 07:27:06 PM
Today I came to Sportsbet.io and checked the odds on parlay of these 6 games they will play, which I get 2 options below;
- The odds for parlay of those 6 big teams to win : 30.35
- The odds for parlay of those 6 big teams to win or draw : 3.04

The second one would be a better and safer option bet I think, but if you want to just get fun and exciting bet on the first week of LaLiga after it's stopped for 2 months, you might try to bet small amount on the first option Wink
I looked at schedule and I see that Barca and Real will have easy opponents. But some other top 6 will have tricky games, like Atletico will play against Athletic away or there will be derby of Sevilla too.

I'm actually worried that as many as 7 people in one club were infected, which is a very large number, and I'm even more worried that it was hidden.
And what about other clubs in the league?
I believe you are all aware that even one infected person is enough to ruin the plan to continue this league?
I'm very worried that other clubs are also hiding the truth about the number of infected people and how this will affect the continuation of the league.
I don't think that they are hiding truth. As I understand, all players were tested before return to training and tests shows that they had virus previously. But when they had it, they had no idea about it, because there was no symptoms. I remember reading about virus cases in Valencia, Getafe, Alaves, so clubs aren't to hide these things.
Now it would be simply impossible to hide such things. All players are tested, so if they would have virus, they would have to go into quarantine and wouldn't be allowed to play.
4845  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: [Unofficial] Coinpot.co - new microwallet on: June 02, 2020, 07:09:56 PM
And it took more than 24 hours for Coinpot admin to post this message. What a communication! I know that just one man runs this service, but is it so difficult to communicate a bit better?
And I predict that after update, old Moon faucets will look same like Moon Dash and Moon Bitcoin Cash. I doubt that new features will be added.
4846  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Cloud mining - why? on: June 01, 2020, 09:32:49 PM
You have valid concerns about cloud mining and for me it's very strange that people still investing their hard earned into such schemes 2020.
99% of cloud mining websites is just ponzi schemes and they don't mine any crypto. Their contracts is terrible and you barely can reach ROI at the end of contract. These who are offering high returns - they just will turn into scam soon like every ponzi scheme and run away with your investment.
I think main problem is people ignorance about mining in general. They know almost nothing about it and they think that cloud mining is profitable and it's easy to earn money in this way. Unfortunately, they are completely wrong about it. And no matter how many warnings about cloud mining we will post, it's simply imposible to warn everyone about it.
4847  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Blockchain.com wallet introduces interest accounts on: June 01, 2020, 07:45:41 PM
Very long article with lot of not needed information and not much about interest accounts.
Here I found some FAQ. about interest accounts:
https://support.blockchain.com/hc/en-us/categories/360003244552-Interest-Account
So, to enable interest feature, you must have Gold level account. It means that you have to pass full KYC verification. And you must have at least $300 in your account to start getting interest.
After all, 4.5% isn't bad, compared to what banks are offering. But at least for me it's not worth to sell my personal date and keep large number of BTC on web wallet in danger.
Crypto web wallet is probably last place where I'm going to do KYC.

@tomahawk9, it's great to see schedule and can't wait for return of La Liga. But I'm not sure that I'm going to bet on first round after quarantine, it's too tricky. We don't know how players spend lockdown period and in what condition they will return. It's possible that strong team on paper will have such pathetic performance as Schalke in Bundesliga.
4849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitcoinNews.com's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: June 01, 2020, 07:08:08 PM
@hilarious

Those two games are being played first because all the other teams have played 29 games. Those teams have played 28 games so it’s to bring everybody up to 29 games played.
IIRC, these games were rescheduled before pandemy because League Cup final. They had to play on 11th March, but game was postponed again because positive Covid-19 cases in Arsenal. And then on next weekend whole league was stopped...
4850  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Ledger Live - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.trezor.app on: May 31, 2020, 09:25:01 PM
I don't know about Trezor app, but at least Ledger Live app is far from being perfect. Though it's not as bad to be rated just with one start.
There is many reasons why ratings of these apps is bad. Some people just have too big expectations for these apps. If they found missing features they usually leave bad feedback. They expect that mobile app will have all same features as PC program. Some leave it because they haven't some specific coins/tokens supported. Some people maybe have cheap or old phones and app don't work properly, but I think it's their problem.
And in general, when everything works as supposed, people just use app happy and don't even consider leaving feedback. But when something goes wrong, they are first to complain about it.

I don't know any ethical hackers because didn't needed for their help so far. But I just want to warn and be careful. After this post you may get messages from people who pretend to be ethical hackers, but they aren't not. So, they may cause you damage only. You should deal with people who have good reputation only.

Damn, these f*cking scammers are using every opportunity to become rich. And Covid-19 is very sensitive topic, especially for Italy, so risk that many people may fall into this is big. At least this Bitcoin address that you've posted is empty so far, so let's hope that there is no victims of this ransomware attack. Thanks for warning!
4853  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you feel safe going outside? on: May 31, 2020, 05:59:11 PM
The mask does not protect YOU. It is meant to reduce spread in case you got it but don't know it because its at an early stage or you are asymptomatic like a quarter of cases are.

akram143 is correct that keeping your mouth shut does achieve the same thing. But can you do it? Can you not TALK at all while outside? That's the reason for the fabric masks. Also coughs and sneezes...

Indeed your hands should not touch anything. If they do, don't touch yourself until you can wash them with soap, etc. Especially important to not touch your face or "adjust" your mask once you are outside, simply don't touch it again until you return and washed your hands. And then wash it / dispose it properly.

You musn't underestimate the virus ability to spread from inanimate objects you may casually touch with your hands. Wearing gloves merely moves the danger to the gloves, but its still there.
But can you tell how I can infect other people just by walking near by them without having any symptoms like cough or sneeze? If you don't have any symptoms, longer contact is nneded to infect him. And at current stage, at least when you're walking outside, masks isn't needed - there is very few new cases of Covid-19 in my country, for example just 5 today in whole country and almost all of it are in hospitals. So, risk to get virus is small.
I wash hands when return from shop, but I had to admit that I touch my face so many times not intentionally and I can't anything about it. When I was wearing mask, I also touched it many times to adjust it.
4854  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Corona Virus and the forum members on: May 30, 2020, 11:17:23 PM
I have no doubts that there is more or less forum members who got infected. Covid-19 is global problem with over 6 million people infected, so it's likely that it touched our community. But maybe considering that there 7.8 billion people on the earth, maybe this number isn't looks so big. I just hope that there is no victims of virus from our forum.
And I don't know any people in personal who had this virus.
4855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: English Premier League set to restart on June 17, 2020. on: May 30, 2020, 11:03:07 PM
Betting? I prefer to wait. If you take a look on Bundesliga crazy things happened after the coronavirus pause. Few big teams are losing games easily vs smaller ones. Leipzig and Schalke are doing horrible games, other teams performance aren't that good too...
I will not be surprised to see Liverpool or United losing easy games since City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs already already did before the pause!
EPL is unpredictable i would say, and now we may see more surprises Wink
Well, Schalke were terrible before quarantine too and they haven't won for very long time, so their recent loses probaly isn't crazy things. Meanwhile Bayer is trashing all their opponents as usual. And EPL is very competetive and unpredictable league in general, so first games after restart will be even more tricky.
4856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2019/20 on: May 30, 2020, 08:44:41 PM
Still, after Barcelona, Pep won only national leagues, which was expected given the strength of Bayern and Manchester City, but Pep was no longer able to win the European Champions League again.
This may give some people the right to say that as a coach he is overrated and that he won the best results in his career with the best club in the world, Barcelona, and with the best player in the world, Messi, which was not difficult to achieve.
When Barca won all possible trophies, they had probably one of the best team in footbal history and it wasn't focused on Messi only. They had Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Valdes in their prime. But I wouldn't call him overrated. Yeah, winning Bundesliga with Bayern doesn't sounds like amazing achievement. But EPL trophy twice in a row, considering how competetive this league is is very solid achievement. He haven't won Champions league with other team than Barca, but I think it's not a reason to call him overrated.
And finally some good news for Real fans  Grin

Real Madrid working towards playing at the Bernabeu in October... with fans present''[/i]
It seems that Real will play the remaining matches this season at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano at Valdebebas and will later return to their stadium.
Real is preparing plans to open part of the stadium for fans in October.
Initially, only a third of the seats would be filled, and on January the entire stadium would be filled  Cheesy
Source: https://www.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2020/05/29/5ed02d2246163f56438b4591.html

It would be great news, not only for Real fans, but for every supporter of Spnish teams. But October is so far away and we have no idea what situation with pandemy will be then. It's possible that government simply will not allow to play with spectators, as initially they planned to play behind closed doors until 2021. Though, some football leagues in Europe already allow limited number of spectators to enter.
4857  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you feel safe going outside? on: May 29, 2020, 11:11:06 PM
Whether you feel that it's safe without wearing a mask if your government requires you to wear one, you must follow. Does your government allow you to go outside even without a mask?
I didn't wear mask while being outside even when it mandatory, I just had it on chin. I understand that it's needed in shops or public transport where there is close contact with other people. But I think it's not needed when you walk in streets, parks and etc. You barely can get infected when other person will walk near you, if you afraid you can keep distance from other people.
At least government lifted this requirement and people now are allowed to breath clean weather. It's almost summer, weather is getting hot and face masks makes breathing more complicated.
4858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2019/20 on: May 29, 2020, 11:01:53 PM
So, it seems that after restart, La Liga schedule will be very intensive. From June 11th until 19th July games will be played every day in order to finnish season ASAP. First game after return will be derby of Sevilla between Sevilla and Betis - should be great game for return.
https://www.espn.com/soccer/spanish-primera-division/story/4099175/messis-back-la-liga-to-restart-on-june-11-president-confirms
There's only one guy who could fix Barca's current problems.  Pep.  I think with everything going on with him, City banned at CL, mom died recently, he'll be looking forward to coming home.  He could also take a year off again before coming back to management.
I think every fan of Barcelona would love to see return of Pep. But there is too many problems and drama in Barca office now. But maybe after president elections it would be possible. If Laporta would become president again, he said that he would welcome Pep with open hands.

@LTU_btc while we all are disappointed that we won’t be able to watch the entire season, but under the current circumstances I’m sure that we all will be more than happy to watch any number of races, that they can organise for us don’t you’ll agree?.
Yeah, it's obviously much better than nothing. We all been waiting for F1 for so long and I really miss it.

It's sad to see current situation of legendary F1 team Williams. Just few years ago they were 3rd in constructors championship and now they turned into joke. It's all about bad management.
4860  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you feel safe going outside? on: May 29, 2020, 09:51:10 AM
I feel completely safe. I go to work, to shops everyday, I meet my friends often, as usual. On weekend I'm going to play basketball with my friends. Sometimes I even forget that we are still living in quarantine, because most of restrictions were already lifted. I only remember about it when I go to shop where people still have to wear masks... I think there is no need to panic because situation in my country is really good now, there is very few new cases found, and most of it are in hospitals.
And as user above said, there is many worse diseases than Covid-19. Most of infected people who died were old or had very serious diseases like cancer. So, if you don't have health problems, this virus isn't that dangerous for you. Offcourse, if spread of virus is still big in your location, better try to protect yourself, but there is no need to panic.
