This thread is quite helpful to have a summarized look at different websites and their promotions, and it's not like it's going anywhere, but it's convenient to have this topic. I'll be watching this topic now.

As for experience with the dice sites, I did have a couple of bets in Stake and Primedice, but my most memorable win wasn't with dice but with Plinko win in BitVest. It has a couple of event playing out for players and gives a chance for members to win. Not bad, I gained like 0.04 BTC.

I would love to see other sites coming up with their unique event, maybe in MintDice? I think I would be suggesting it.

For a website that Is for gambling shouldn't use ads like that. It's annoying. You know when you are just downloading a file, and you need to go through a lot of links shortened, I think it's going to be like that. With all the posts above, I won't be trying to access it.

Gambling should be quick and easy to access not hidden with a bunch of ads.

Since reputable naman yung manager, i think they would be okay now. At least kahit papano sinunuod nila yung mga advice na binigay sakanila against dun sa spam na nangyayari dati.

Meron na bang say si theymos? Tanda ko binan niya yung signature nung mga nagsuot nung dating signature codes nung yobit. Months have past since nung nagkaroon ng widespread ban, so baka pwede niyo na i-consider ‘to.
5004  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin Is the Third-Most Resistant to 51% Attacks, After Bitcoin and Ethereum on: September 28, 2019, 03:44:07 AM
Every time I see Dogecoin, I always remember a post where the creator of Dogecoin said that it was just supposed to be a troll factor in the cryptocurrency space. He is surprised that it has increased in value.

https://thecoinshark.net/creator-dogecoin-is-surprised-by-the-growth/amp/

Having to have the 51% attack would be critical to any coins reputable sense. Imagine being able to double-spend a currency. Which has been a problem from the old virtual currencies back then and the blockchain solves it. It wouldn't be economically viable, in my opinion.
5005  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the movement for alternative money a response to? on: September 28, 2019, 02:29:53 AM
As you know, the top dogs have the most to lose, so they want the current situation to be the situation in the future. They are staying the same because they have the most power in it. As for the alternative money, which would be cryptocurrencies, would have a significant impact on them, unless they have it too.

What's important is that its peer-to-peer transactions but the next problem would be the trust issues.

People who are up to no good are always lurking to find the next victim. It's the downside of that, in my opinion. Be vigilant.

You Just need a Lua script to utilize the capability of Seuntjie dice bot. I think everything is already up to your level and you can make sure that you test it out first. The best thing about this program is that there is the programmer mode and that's where you would input your script.

5008  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 8 Ball Pool game against live players worldwide - is gambling available? on: September 27, 2019, 09:08:51 AM
I play that a lot a few years ago and I would still play it if I got it installed. My friends are competing who is the best player with that, and probably that could be considered gambling too. I just thought of this; why not play for in-game purchases? Like for example, you guys play best of 3 then whoever losses, will treat the other guy with Cash. It's the one where you buy in-game cash with a bonus of making it double in your first purchase. Back when I was playing, I haven't purchased chips or anything else — just pure grit to grind the chips there.

P.S. I had gotten good to check if the shot was straight by tilting the phone to the direction I want, like my eyes were aligned to my phone, in line with the shot line. Anybody play this way too?

magkakaissue ba pag sinabing galing gambling ung money?
Tinanong ko na yan sa mga support a few years ago and they said, pwede naman as long as the casino is accredited by the government, PAGCOR. To my knowledge, wala pa kong nakita na accredited ng PAGCOR. Feeling ko nagsisimula pa lang.

Check this news. https://www.bworldonline.com/face-off-with-cryptocurrency/

Adding to the additional control of PAGCOR with the current casinos, mas lalaki yung revenue pag nagkaroon ng mga cryptocurrency gambling sites dito siguro.
5010  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: SCAM BITSTARZ $350 DOLLARS on: September 27, 2019, 01:04:37 AM
I'm just curious about how that online casino is still operating. I have seen people win so many BTC there in videos and I don't know if they are having a problem withdrawing it. It's mostly all of the said "winnings" that they actually post their winnings and not making sure if they have got it. I'm pretty sure it's just for marketing business making people seem eager to play in that casino because there are a lot of winners.

With all the negative reviews that @TimeTeller posted in the thread. There should be an action against that site.

I hope this becomes a Global standard in BTCT. Like every manager uses this kind of system and rulings so that everyone would know how to follow and what to follow, correctly. I think it could be applied here in the forum just like the different ISO standards that are agreed upon on different industries.

Maybe it could increase the quality of members partaking in the signature campaign too.
5012  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Freebitco SCAM-Revealed --Big Scammer of all time on: September 26, 2019, 02:53:18 AM
A player who is unsatisfied with the site has given. Maybe all the other gamblers who lost will create another topic and say this “xxxx gambling site is a scam!”. That’s the problem with most people because they tend to blame others first before themselves. They are not looking for something wrong in themselves and try to fix it, instead they lash out at everything including the ones who he thinks “cheated” on him and lost a lot.

If this was always the case, think about all the traders who got liquidated when a big move has come with Bitcoin. Should they complain in the site? No. Traders have the complete control over what they are willing to risk. Just like in Gambling.
5013  Economy / Reputation / Re: Signature campaign managers have the most Alt accounts. on: September 25, 2019, 09:51:08 AM
CryptoMania should be able to answer it (or maybe theymos with the IP log data). But it seems like DontMe has managed their ANN thread, and possibly their communications on this forum. I guess they trusted DontMe.
What bugs me the most is that there's even no warning that they would be changing "managers"/"accounts" in the old thread. This is the last post in the old thread before it was locked. Definitely not a warning message. Just out of the blue. Contacting the site would be ideal.
5014  Economy / Reputation / Re: Signature campaign managers have the most Alt accounts. on: September 25, 2019, 09:23:26 AM
A new account is created, SlotsCryptoMania, today.

Old thread was locked and content was deleted https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5185018.msg52468510#msg52468510

And a new Signature campaign thread was created https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5187424.0

ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
The 1st Signature Campaign Thread was deleted. This will be the new one. We are now again Open for all ranks and we will only accept good quality posters.

What's the verdict? Is it to prevent possible connections on the campaign manager accounts? I don't know. But this is still sketchy.
5015  Economy / Reputation / Re: Signature campaign managers have the most Alt accounts. on: September 25, 2019, 08:01:37 AM
The person you quoted also acknowledged payments were made.
Is it me you are talking about? I did say that they got paid assuming that the participants didn't complain, as simple as that, but having actual proof that the transaction happened, I don't have that. I don't know if there's a way unless the manager deliberately shares the transactions. All of it. Making sure that it's on the correct timestamps as well.



Dontme is clearly not accepting the most qualified candidates into his signature campaign. I applied for his CryptoMania campaign, was not accepted, and looking at who was accepted, I was passed over for multiple people with no merit received.  
I did notice this while I was scrolling in the page of the CryptoMania thread. There are a lot of usernames that I was familiar but skipped on it. It's like they purposefully accepted the ones that they like or have a connection to.
5016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you could invest in a project with it's own hardware device, WOULD YOU? on: September 25, 2019, 07:14:30 AM
I'm one of those people who use the hardware wallet, Ledger and it has been good to me so far, and I have the Nano S and Nano X.

Anyways, if I have the opportunity to invest in their coin, why not? I'm just going to look over a few factors to consider before actually buying the actual currency.

  • Would it be the best use for your money?
  • Checking the risk knowing that it's another cryptocurrency.
  • Do you immediately need the money back in case it takes a long time?
  • What's the actual use of the coin?
  • Would you be able to earn more when you have it? (Like staking the currency)

These are the things that I think I need to consider with the factors at hand because why would we not believe it? I would like to own some of it, but I would use my extra BTC to invest in it and to hope and learning that Ledger is a massive company in the cryptocurrency world, it may grow. As long as you don't regret what you are doing, I think it would be beneficial to your self, mentally and emotionally. 
5017  Economy / Gambling / Re: This might be a different approach to gambling on: September 25, 2019, 03:01:38 AM
I'm worried that you're only method of turning a profit is by cheating on your heads and tails game - you know the server seed and know the opponent's client seed, so you can easily create a client seed that generates a win for you.
I'm quite confused right now because upon reading the website it's a PvP type of game. The most plausible way to have their profit if they give an advantage to your opponent and that said opponent is a player from the house. Right now there are a few people using the site so they need to use somebody to play in the site because they "do not support a bot-api." Even without a bot, you could decide on where you would give the win (generating a win to the favorable side) then profit from it.

That's just my take on the situation. No other way they could profit, no affiliates, ads, etc. Great initiative though.
5018  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns [Last update: 24-Sep-2019] on: September 25, 2019, 01:45:29 AM
There are quite a number of signature participants that are from the Philippines. It might be a case of the interconnected culture resulting in a quicker spread of Bitcoin, not to mention the infrastructure that readies users for bitcoin adoption (like coinsph)
It's quite convenient for the users to use a service like coins.ph to distribute the payments. It saves them time and the transaction fees are non-existent so which is good. It's great that they are using that, I wasn't aware the first time I looked into it. Nevertheless, at least they got paid.

Also it is quite common within local communities to share new campaigns with each other as soon as they pop up. And when in that case the filipino-community found this new campaign first and applied for it first, too + the manager does accept applicants on "first come, first serve" basis, than this could possible be the reason. Did not check for the timestamps, so just an idea for the moment.
I understand. That would definitely be an advantage on being part of a group where you exchange ideas and lift everyone else in that group for the betterment of everyone. For a new campaign, I think that "kind-of-rule" will apply because maybe good posters would apply first and you can lose a spot.
5019  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: USBHarpoon - a charging cable that can hack your computer on: September 25, 2019, 12:59:37 AM
Because most devices have a single multi purpose port now. Any USB cable with data pins, even if you think it is just for charging, can send or receive data from your device too. You don't know what's inside the charging adapter. It could quite easily be hiding a few microchips ready to send malware to any device which connects.
This article by the verge is quite recent and it's a good read too. This shows that a cable looks and functions like a normal lightning cable but it has an additional feature where it has a wireless point (additional hardware) making it a remote hacking device. It's definitely a scary place we live in now, everything can be remotely hijacked. And guess what, it says "it's nothing new". It has been going around and I have no idea until recently.  Huh

Good. Paranoid is good. Yoy shouldn't be plugging any unknown USB cables, drives, or devices in to your device.
Or never borrow from someone you don't know. #neveragain #officialproductsonly LOL.

Absolutely. There is a public charging station at my nearest airport with about 20 cables of various sizes. Every time I am there, they are almost all being used. That's hundreds of devices each day.
It's better to use a normal socket using your charging cable and adapter instead. This is what I usually do in an airport.
5020  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: USBHarpoon - a charging cable that can hack your computer on: September 24, 2019, 10:00:58 AM
I didn't know that this exists already. Thanks for sharing this. It's definitely scary to use cheap stuff that might compromise your status. I do have a cheap cable for charging (it's an L-type of cord, so I could play while charging), I don't know how they would be able to get my data because I just stuck it in the charging adaptor.

Anyways, this reminded me of a story by my boss at his previous work that he knows someone that is a good programmer and he created a flash drive that once you stuck it in your computer, it's going to get your files in the background while it's still inserted. This story makes me paranoid and makes me want my files to be secure.

So basically, this is a warning for everyone to NEVER use cheap cords and plug it in your computer. Now I'm more paranoid



@o_e_l_e_o Is it really going to be effective to hack someone or infect a virus when you just use a public charging station? Infecting the one you are charging?

So you could say that your smartphone would be getting HIV.
