OP, are you from US? If yes, according to OneHash TOS and their license, people from US aren't allowed to play there. So, I think you should follow their rules if you want to avoid problems like block of account or lock of funds. Offcourse using VPN or proxy is an option, but risk still remains. Using VPN also goes against rules, so if they will find it, they may block your account.

Great topic! It's quite difficult to keep track of all these promotions of gambling websites. So, it's great idea to collect everything into one place. I know that it's difficult to keep everything updated, but I hope you will do it.

If that has to be continued, I dont expect the players, coaches and staff will undergo the match using masks on their faces. Cheesy
I don't think that the match will use masks on their faces to avoid viruses, it will be difficult for players to use like that when competing.
Offcourse players will not wear masks, it's simply impossible to play football with mask. But I wouldn't be surprised if staff - coaches, doctors, TV crew, ball boys will have to wear it...

I'm not anti-waxer, but even if vaccine against COVID-19 will be found, I doubt that I'm going to use it, same like I never use flu vaccine. First of all, it's not clear when it will be found. Making effective vaccine isn't that easy, so it can took years to create it. It's likely that COVID-19 virus will mutate, and when vaccine will be made, it simply may not work.
Meanwhile, countries which have decided to do nothing about the virus and simply let herd immunity happen: Sweden is weeks away from herd immunity[17] and Belarus is in no difficulty from the alleged pandemic[18]. None of these two countries are in a worse situation than other countries around the world.
I like Sweden approach, but I'm not sure that's perfect example which should be followed by every country. Yes, situation isn't worse than in Italy or USA, but it's definitely not that good. If I'm not mistaken, death rate for 1 million people in Sweden is one of biggest in the world.

I guess this could basically be a great way to keep people at home as well. I know you are risking some players and that is very well understood, however you are risking probably couple hundred people by doing this, and you are doing it with all the defenses you can do, you will test them constantly, you will protect them from outside and many things. In return you will get thousands of people sitting at home watching the games.

I think it is a fair to give up a protected 200 people at risk because they will barely touch anything with corona, in return of getting probably at least 10k+ people and considering globally it will be probably be over 100k who will sit at home and they are bored so they will watch the games at home. So, health-wise this is a good decision.
I agree with you. Even without spectators, there will be 200-300 people at stadium - players and staff. But I don't that risk with all precautions and testing is very big. It's just interesting what if they found someone's test positive. Will they stop whole league again, or what?
People now are really missing football. And during these difficult it's important to give people some enterntainment that they would forget about all problems for 2 hours at least.

who is behind this project? design is same as faucethub
It's copied from FH.
All the CSS on the site is from FaucetHUB.

If a guy steals someone's work/code, he'll steal your money eventually sooner or later.
Be warned. Depositing on a website that copied FH and can turn out in a scam.
Thank's for warning, mex. You're right, if OP just copied content from your website instead creating his own, it's very big risk to be scammed here.
When Faucethub was closed, I was afraid that we will see more microwallet scam attempts, because there was many new microwallets from unknown devs were opened then.

Are you just trying to promote your website by posting it's link in your post? If yes, FYI, it's against forum rules.
4948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gaming and Mobile Sport Betting May Be Legal After Covid-19 End??? on: May 03, 2020, 07:23:04 PM
1. No, it's illegal. But only these companies which have at least 1 physical gambling/betting shop may have online gambling website. So, they block all foreign websites like Bet365, Betfair and others. Though, you can use it easy just by changing DNS or using VPN.
And actually, there is no real physical casino in my country, all these "casinos" have just slots machines.
2. Offcourse yes, especially if physical gambling is allowed in that country, I don't see any reasons why they shouldn't allow it online. But in my country, I don't expect any changes because physical betting/gambling isn't popular anymore, everything is online for long time already.
3. New crypto gambling websites opens every month. But almost all these websites is registered somewhere in offshore country to avoid taxes and regulations. It's their main difference from fiat sportsbooks. It would be interesting to see major fiat sportsbook starting to accept crypto...

@LTU_btc is there any chance that I can get to watch a replay of the above mentioned race, as I totally missed seeing it and since you have given such a rave review therefore now I’m very keen to watch it. Furthermore where’re they showing those virtual races, and should I even bother seeing those races or no?.
I think you can watch replay on IndyCar Youtube channel:
https://youtu.be/njQCaPXIOnA
Usually these virtual races is broadcasted on Youtube, Facebook and Twitch channels of racing series.
Well, it doesn't replace real racing, but for me it's quite fun to watch.

E-Sport Indy race with many pro drivers will start in 18 minutes if you are interest, since this is an "official" race you should be able to bet somewhere.

https://www.twitch.tv/landonorris


The race will be in Indianapolis
It was great race to watch with drama until last lap. And on last lap there was some wtf crazy crashes which resulted unexpected winners. Lando Norris was one of leaders, but he had accident on last laps. But I don't understand why there was no yellow flags qnd safety car after all these accidents.
On Sunday there will be virtual F1 and F2 races, but for me it's least exciting of all these virtual racing series.

What about 1337420, 133769? Those are pretty cool numbers too.

Maybe I don't understand something, but why these numbers are special? I tried to Google it, but didn't found nothing interesting Cheesy.

1337420, 133769

Something as "leet" https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5162637.0
Oh, thanks, couldn't have thought about it. 420 and 69 in these numbers have another meaning Cheesy.

Mixed feelings about this. Now we see Japan reopened and in China too, second wave is hitting hard and making everyone else think twice. I love my football and want to see everything restart again but my team especially now will be hit hard so I'm not sure they're the best to come out of this. And then if second wave hits, we'll be forced for sure to just cancel everything.
I'm not sure where did you got news about second wave in China. Number of new COVID-19 cases daily in China is very little and stable and most of these infected people actually arrived to China from other countries:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/china/
It's very likely that second wave will hit in autumn. But I'm not really sure that we can keep everything closed for years and it's not only about football, but about all things in general. Virus won't simply gone one day and probably we will have to live with it. We will have to return to normal life one day. Even if vaccine will be made, question how effective it will be. Look at flu vaccine, every year they have to make new vaccine, because old simply doesn't work anymore.
Ins Spain, Italy, people return to work slowly, despite risks. I think it's just not possible that football leagues to wait until it will be completely safe to play.

4954  Economy / Reputation / Re: Is it promote scam by asking questions with scam website? on: April 30, 2020, 11:26:37 PM
It's quite old and popular scheme to promote scammy websites. Newbie accounts ask such questions about obvious scams - cloud mining, ponzi schemes, fake stores and etc. Usually they post in popular boards like Bitcoin Discussion, Beginners & help, marketplace to get more visibility. If they would post in appropriate board - investor based games, then nobody will not see their website and it will be more difficult to attract victims.
But there is no way to prove that author of topic related with that website. It still can be legitimate newbie asking questions. Any way, I'm not sure what can be done in such cases. These accounts is throwaway and no longer used after that post. Tagging them probably wouldn't help much.
4955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitcoinNews.com's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: April 30, 2020, 10:55:13 PM
We’ll see how Germany’s Bundesliga gets on first I guess as they return first, they’re already training. I think money is probably behind the big leagues going back to play but it is what it is. Fit, young footballers are very unlikely to get seriously ill, it’s mostly older people who get badly ill.
Bundesliga delayed their return decision. They won't return  in action on 9th May and decision will be made on 6th May:
https://www.goal.com/en/news/bundesliga-return-decision-delayed-coronavirus-angela-merkel/17runzge6t6l516kcz6yq7e4tg
There is only few leagues which announced return dates. Switzerland will resume season on 8th June, Czech Republic 25th May, Poland 29th May.
IMO, it's not worth to expect that EPL will return earlier than July. These countries which planning to continue season don't have many new virus cases and already lifting some quarantine restrictions. While in England situation is still one of worst in Europe.
4956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking into the Abyss - The Financial Struggle of Sport Teams amid Covid-19 on: April 30, 2020, 10:41:50 PM

There are still daily flights to and from USA in Frankfurt:

I could also see the different teams chartering a plane in a joint venture and bring back their players - plus some cargo maybe to lower the costs Grin But then again, these players need to go into quarantine first, can't train etc. So this is all but easy.
I may be wrong, but these planes are flying empty in order not to lose their places in airports:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/nymag.com/intelligencer/amp/2020/04/heres-why-so-many-planes-are-still-flying-nearly-empty.html
Now most countries have closed borders, so travelling is impossible. And when it will be opened, it will be difficult to collect players from different parts of USA with limited flights. And then as you say, they would have to spend 14 days in quarantine after that.
Quite many players like Mike James from CSKA said that they are against resuming season. So, some teams probably will have to play without full squad.

Iirc there was some football club from Slovakia that declared bankruptcy, but other than that, everyone is still hanging on.
Club from Slovakia announced about liquidation because players didn't agreed to cut of wages. But if I understand correct, this club will continue to play, probably with youth squad. It's something similar what Rangers Glasgow did few years ago.

How is Zalgiris doing ?
Probably not good. This season they had record €12 million budget, but now every day they are loosing money and will have to pay at least 80% of contracts to players if season will not continue.
They are playing most games in sold-out 15k people arena and money from tickets is almost 40% of their budget. So, playing without fans would hurt them badly.

I got such PM's multiple times. I'm not really sure why people think that's good idea to beg merits in PM. Do they really expect to get it in such way?
It's just a way how NOT to get merit. It's more likely to get banned or get red trust. Though, personally, I newer bothered to report such accounts. It's just not worth to waste time for such accounts.
4958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking into the Abyss - The Financial Struggle of Sport Teams amid Covid-19 on: April 29, 2020, 10:33:09 PM
Some big European leagues already ended season, but there is still many who are planning to continue, like German, Spanish or Euroleague. But I'm not really sure hoe they are going to continue season. Most American players returned to USA and theywon't get back to finnish season. First off all, simply there is no flights right now. So, if season will continue, I think we will see extremely low level of basketball.
Football will survive this crisis somehow, they get huge money from TV. But other sports like basketball, volleyball or hanball will be hitted hard. They heavy depends on ticket sales and sponsors money. Many sponsors won't afford to pay as much money as they paid before crisis. And playing without spectators is another source of income lost. I read that budgets of basketball teams can decrease by 50% next season. Some teams won't survive this. And in general, team sports other than football isn't profitable, especially basketball. Clubs spend a lot money, but they don't get much income. So, this crisis makes their situation even worse.

For me it feels like Chipmixer campaign is here for ages already. But it just for 3 years on Bitcointalk. Word "just" is right in this case because there was plenty of longer running campaigns.
I'm surprised to see such small number of participants who are in campaign since first rounds until now. Considering that's highest paid campaign, probably not many of them left campaign themselves. Probably they got removed for inactivity and other reasons.

Before I saw your question, I never heard about such thing. Without making any research about it, I would predict that's just another scammy Bitcoin fork. But seems that's different thing. Seems that's just another shitcoin token. Using word Bitcoin in name of tokens show how desperate creators of this project want to attract attention...
