Are you sure you know what on-chain and off-chain means? Most of the huge casinos like primedice/stake/windice/wolf.bet and all the ones you can think of (the very first starting with just-dice) all have been off-chain, on-chain is no longer something that exists and people do not use it, back in the day there was satoshidice which was the first one and that made some noise but at the end of the deal there was really no more on-chain gambling after just-dice started.

On-chain means you send money to blockchain and it comes back as a win with your money or lose and keeps your money, off-chain is the one we send deposits to casinos and we gamble and gamble and gamble but then withdraw, which means there is no waiting for the bets since they are off-chain.

No matter how much they are paying, the important part is that they are paying, normally you should be getting nothing out of gambling but with this promotion (or contest like they are calling it) you are getting something in return of something you would normally do anyway.

Hence, I think even the 50th place is still a good return of gambling if you do it. Of course, we still don't know how much will be required for it, if the top 50 is something huge and the prizes are worthless compared to how much people wager than it would be a bit silly however if the 50th place is like just 0.1 btc or less than we can totally say it was worth it and makes sense to give it a shot, I will certainly give my best to it, will try to lose as little as possible with high odds just to continue wagering as long as possible.

The only way we can protect our self is just to involve our self with bitcoin investment alone, because without regulation and authority to be in charge of this scam case, scammer will keep flooding the market, but if we still want to be giving it the shut, then we have to really be prepared for the battle, and one of the weapon to use in the battle is strong research, we need to research on the project like it is our life or it is a treasure that we are looking for.

Researching on the project really goes beyond just opening their whitepaper, we have to go some extra length in making sure that the project we are researching on is really what it is said to be, and that it will surely have a promising future and a dedicated team that will never abandoned the project at any time.

For me, I feel that 2020 is still too long for the project to be launched and anything could happen before then, and I also feel that there is enough chance for the governments of the world to gather against the Libra.

If Facebook was serious, they should not have even giving them that breathing space, because one thing that I know is that no matter how rich or how important you are in the society, there is no way that you can fight government and I can see that government of solid nations are already rising against the cryptocurrency of Facebook, and I doubt if Facebook can survive this before the 2020 because the heat will start getting much and now that even the united states is not in support of the Libra coin also, but because the project is coming from their country, they are just watching to see how things will unfold also.

Good for them, I am not sure that we are interested, if they cannot go with our bitcoin and they are fighting it, then they better release their cryptocurrency for their citizens alone which I think that will eventually be the case because if they are releasing similar project as Facebook, and amazon too planning their own with other big companies and all slated for next year, the competition will be too much and there will be so much clash of interest, and this is what will make the whole global coin thing collapse.

There is no way that they can all achieve this global coin dream, bitcoin will still be the most acceptable and most used coin globally because it is independent, unlike the majority of these ones that are fully built on centralization.

They have good figures but I am not sure that they are realistic, many of them predicting those extremely high figures are just doing that because they know that is what people wants to hear, so they are just using it to create popularity for themselves.

Bitcoin has very promising future and we do not doubt that now that there is beginning to be a very high adoption from very great companies and very great individual, the dominance of bitcoin is also proving that has we are seeing lots of increase in the dominance of bitcoin, which shows that people are beginning to totally make use of bitcoin more than we think and this will hasten the supply of bitcoin to become limited while the demand will become higher which may lead to some of those predicted prices in future.

Once bitcoin gets adoption from these big countries, then the remaining ones is very little, I have seen many big projects that has started using cryptocurrency and some even developing their like the ones you mentioned, and if they were not being supported by the government, they would not have gotten to the stage of boldly making their intention know to the public.

Bitcoin is just starting to grow now and I believe that we will still have many other big projects that we are not hearing of no, also start their own cryptocurrency development. The funny part of the adoption is that even musicians that are popularly known are beginning to create their own crypto too and they are advising it without the fear of government, crypto has really come to stay.

Golds only reason to get any attention is that there is a limited supply and people really value it. The sad part about it is that there are stuff we use gold to produce, and sometimes they go to garbage, sometimes they are lost and in the end there is really a limited amount of gold, which means it will eventually get more and more valuable and will be literally unpurchasable for regular people at one point.

Same goes with bitcoin, just 21 million at max and we already lost millions of it I am sure, with more time passes there will be more losses and people forgetting their keys and all that which will eventually reach to a point we may end up with less than 10 million, that alone would make bitcoin go up super high in price. The resembles are uncanny.

First thing that this news will do is to first alleviate the fear that people has had about the United states fighting cryptocurrency, at least they know now that all those rumor that the United states has been fighting cryptocurrency or that trump would be cryptocurrency is a lie.

This may actually have a very big impact on cryptocurrency market because people would be able to legally carry out their trades in bitcoin now through binance platform, most especially the UNITED STATE citizens and you know that trade usually create lots of demand for bitcoin also because they would want to buy bitcoin to start trading. It is really great news to me, and i think that we have some exchanges that will really feel threatened about this because this will only give binance more hype for their exchange.

Some people like you think lottery is something very easy to win, we are talking about odds that many people don't even bet on dice games, it is literally less than 0.1% chance most of the time, of course you will lose every single time because it is lottery and there are literally millions of tickets every single week, so you do not have a chance to win it 99.9%+ of the time every single week, don't look at it like dice players do where they think after 17 losses it must be a win on 18th because every single bet is a new one and every single lottery is a new one, you will end up losing every single time.

A guy with 1 ticket technically has the same chance of winning the big bet as someone who has 1 million tickets, only 1 ticket will win an you do increase the chance by having more tickets but in the end there are so many combined that you are just another ticket holder among many.

I am quite surprised at this news, how the US could have ever thought of printing money when they know the effect of it on their country, they don’t care anyway, and they don’t even care of the effect of that on their fiat because if they do, they would not have printed such high amount.

Well I agree with you that we need bitcoin, bitcoin has limited supply and this is what satoshi aim to achieve, to stop all these baseless over printing if money. How I wish that US could accept to use bitcoin as their second money even if they will not completely disregard fiat because if its usefulness to those uneducated people that would find it hard to use cryptocurrency because of its internet base technology, but it is actually meant to serve as alternative which is what I expect the US to have looked into being the giant of the world.

No matter the level of complexities involved that they know, I don’t believe that anyone can still ever guess the price of bitcoin accurately, not in a short term and not in a long term. Bitcoin volatility is really giving lots of analyst though time to really think of getting the price right, they could only see a sign that bitcoin will have some massive growth in future, but they should not always interpret it to figure.

Those figures that they predicted, it could even go higher than that and also, the bears may make us never ever to see such amount of money as they will keep dumping their coin on every level that we attain as regards in increase in the value of bitcoin and my other cryptocurrency, but by 2020, I think I believe that there would be more adoption of bitcoin.

As a newbie, you need to understand that this forum has been existing for a very long time, making a new account, I understand you are also trying to get your rank up by making post, but there are some post that you should indirectly know would have been existing already like this one, so many people has in the past asked this question in which many people has also answered based on their own opinion, you should have just searched for this topic first before making a new one.

well not to waste your post, yes, this is the best time to invest in bitcoin because the value is still very low and there is going to be more increase in future, but when you invest now, don't be like these other investors that don't want to understand that bitcoin investment is a long term investment which will require it's of patience.

You may not get a clear and precise advise my friend, because everyone is quite angry right now at the way we are having shit projects, and if they advise you on how to go about it now, what assurance do we not have that we are not just trying to promote another shitcoins, because from the question you asked, it shows a little bit that you are not much experienced in this field, and this is what is killing the cryptocurrency market.

If you are experience and well informed, you should have known by now that the first thing you need to do is to develop your own blockchain technology and the first way to go about it is that you have to hire a blockchain developer, it is only a blockchain developer that can help you build the project while you give him the idea of what he is building, then you can go through IEO to raise fund because ico will not get you to your destination.

Well, you know what they say, there is no bad advertisement. Yes, we all know now that there are some bad advertisements that causes people to boycott but this ain't one of them. She could be someone who is not really high on anyone's "actress" charts for sure and she is known for doing only a couple of movies instead of hundreds like other actress' but hers was controversial and that is why she is known so much. This is just pure advertisement for the team and also sportsbet.io and that is why I would highly suggest getting known people like her to make more marketing, doesn't have to be at the same sector.

For example, twitch is now allowing people to gamble (been allowing for a while but they actually made it official) so maybe Sportsbet.io could spend money on those people to stream the website while betting and that could attract more gamblers.

Seems like it works for me? It is once again not making big runs that frequently but it at least runs .

This is more like many many MANY under 2 results and than one day its like 100, so instead of having multiple smaller bigger wins, it basically gives you tiny wins (or losses) plenty of times and than one big win. It is like playing on dice for x10 odds, yeah you will probably not win many times but when you do its 10x of your bet so you end up not losing your bankroll that quickly if you are careful.

I would highly suggest people to just bet small amounts right after a big win and than keep increasing that amount the more it stays under 2, eventually you will hit a high wagered but than there will be a huge win as well which would recover all of it.

I totally agree with you, you know we humans has a way of looking down on  people, we have some people that might not want to take the bitcoin because of racism, because of pride and some because they will look at Satoshi and probably judge him from the head to the toe and be looking at him like someone who is a scammer and wants to dupe people if they look at that 980 000 bitcoin that he has.

Just imagine when Craig wright came out to claim to be satoshi, people don’t even want to believe or accept him first because they feel like Craig is a fraudulent person and they don't want to trust him.  Another way you should picture is what satoshi was a prisoner, do you know how many people will think that they are using criminal coin to operate, so it is better he remains anonymous.

I am not surprised about the statistics really, but I am surprised about the fact that you personally expect something higher when I am actually expecting something far lower than that because from your community, your environment, from this forum and the number of people that has spoken of bitcoin in publicity, how many of them would you have seen talk about cryptocurrency.

there is this discussion we have actually had about this in this forum as regards the involvement of women in the cryptocurrency space which many of us agree that the emotion that God has given them is what makes them stay away from things like this, as they see most of these risky ventures as the thing of man that can be handled more by them and that is why they always rely on us sometimes, except the stronger ones.

I doubt freebitcoin got enough advertisement out of this. I mean they were already one of the most known casinos in the whole crypto world and certainly the biggest faucet out there by a large margin, how much new user could they actually get from something like this. Sure they got some but is it enough to justify a 200k giveaway? I doubt so, they probably bet on the fact that people who came in here for this will stay a lot longer when it ends as well, that would help, plus casinos have to keep doing promotions so that they don't lose customers and that is another positive of this as well.

Freebitcoin already gives out so much, having lambo on top of that must have created some financial issues like not earning enough for a long time but at the same time it definitely prolonged websites life for sure.

There is always some people who try to complete these challenges, there are literally people like bounty hunters but they hunt these challenges, they are... challenge hunters? Lol, I don't know what they are called but in ANY challenge stake or primedice has ever put up, there has always been a ton of people who do it.

You are forgetting that this website has insane amount of gamblers, it has so many gambler that just 100 of them achieving is not even a big deal, people literally spend their time around here gambling because some people make more money than others since they live in first world countries and make a decent amount of salary so putting up 5k-10k a year on gambling means nothing to them, and if they won once upon a time then it is even better.
