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.

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.

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.

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


What's the verdict? Is it to prevent possible connections on the campaign manager accounts? I don't know. But this is still sketchy.

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.

---

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.

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. 

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.

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.

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.

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. 

Or never borrow from someone you don't know. #neveragain #officialproductsonly LOL.

It's better to use a normal socket using your charging cable and adapter instead. This is what I usually do in an airport.

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.

I supported the flag as well.

I don't think that earn would be the right term. Hijacked/swiped/robbed. Lol

You wouldn't know the right time to be trusting but it's just better to be safe than sorry. Don't trust anybody so easily without checking the background or something. I was a victim with scamming because I didn't get a background check and believed that there are good persons still to transact with, it's just not the reality we live in.

That's awesome. You must really enjoy the fruits that have come to you when you were early in this forum. You have a lot of BTC earnings probably. At least, I know that it's not just me that has become bust just because of playing. It's the risk you are willing to do and getting the satisfaction in winning the game is even better. What game do you like most in MintDice? For me, I really like the slots game because I just enjoy seeing all the rolling and graphics. Lol.

Thanks for the info. Upon checking, the manager said this


I did check it, that's probably why there are a lot of unknown transactions. So of all the people that are included in the campaign, the majority are Filipinos? That's quite a coincidence. Hmm. Anyways, just pointing it out.

Thank you sa pag support, @cabalism13.

Matagal na ako nag iisip kung ano yung pwedeng sunod na activity for the Bitcointalk Charity and to my realizations, the farmers really need our help. Kahit anong support, kung hindi man makapag volunteer or bumili locally, the best is still to donate. Para at least, kahit papano makatulong at alam natin na 'to talaga ay para sa mga nangangailangan.

Sana kahit papano makapagpasabi tayo "Maganda ang pasko" dahil sa mga nagawa natin para sa kanila. Nakakatuwa yun.

After reading your post, I checked the Cryptomania campaign and to my surprise, the campaign payments are quite confusing.

I see this proof of payment they have - https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/c35cc5c35fdfd01a43ea3b475d9fa1e1f586b9f777bffcc0173bb2cd0f450886

And there are only 8 output transactions 2 of which only corresponds to two profiles ChrisPop and numanoid

So I checked the other participants, like.

passwordnow - https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/d900b6b0cbf0b7511d993c174fc0edb159cea7701521e3d15cbb2af55c189835

It is his wallet that only in that transaction. I'm guessing why would it have other wallets to be paid to. And I continued checking other profiles like this

Prettyme - https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/3HiPAWGHKnqb7GQ3MXchtzypvRVfVCPCrq

It says Paid on the spreadsheet but isn't really paid on the address sheet.


This is quite sketchy in my opinion or maybe they could explain or something. Will try to investigate further when I have time, maybe others can check.

Here is a screenshot of the spreadsheet . They might change it or something

Hey there Lucius, thanks! It doesn’t matter how small the donation, it’s the effort that counts. I know it’s not going to hurt us to give a little to those who needs it but certainly will help. As long as the donation wouldn’t let you feel regret, then that’s good to go.

---

I don’t think I should create another topic because what I’m proposing is another project for this program. I would be getting some help from the Bitcointalk Charity Program. All help are welcome.

To have a significant impact towards the problem would require a large fund, like you are suggesting. I know for sure that 1 BTC wouldn’t be enough to solve it, but in a small way, with these donations going on, it would definitely help people.

---

Remember, that it’s still significant no matter what amount you give to as long as you do it with full heart.

I do that too, where I play some of my earnings in the signature campaign and hoping to exceed a little towards the transaction fee that is being implemented. Maybe earn like 20k sats and then withdraw. At least you could somehow get the return of the fee, getting your paid amount in full. Just be careful not to play with it too much, you could lose it all. (Almost happened to me, lol)

Hey there guys, bumping this thread. I just had a sudden realization on how lucky we are knowledgeable in some ways to discover this forum and to make money from it. It's a blessing to have, and I'm thankful for it.

So let's talk about a real problem that is currently happening for years now in the Philippines. Probably there are a lot of people who have seen this issue or may have done something, and I think it's time we could make a difference in some way. Christmas time is fast approaching, and I'm suggesting this to help the fellow Filipinos who need urgent help.

Let's talk about first what Rice Tariffication and what it has done to the Philippines


Basically, it's for the Philippines to comply with the international commitment with WTO (World Trade Organization) and target the possible problems that could happen in the future (Rice Shortage, Expensive Rice, etc.) [1]

Positive effects of this Law are

• Lower Price for Consumers
• Addressing the Rice Shortage
• Lower inflation Rates
• Supporting Rice farmers (they could export it to the world market, more possible consumers from another country)

This Negative Effect is what I want everyone to focus on, as the Bitcointalk Community, and evaluate what we could do.

• No Assurance / Safety net for Filipino Farmers
• More importation

There are more to this list, and it's all in this article

So knowing some part of it, what's the Big Problem that we are talking about?

• The possible Over Supply could negatively impact the Local Farmers and it has [2]
• Farmers are getting poorer and poorer

As a Bitcointalk Member and being a concerned citizen of the Earth. We wouldn't want other people to suffer. What could we do?

There are a couple of things to support the Filipino Farmers[3]

• Buy Locally (Wet markets, Online Markets that sell local products, etc.)
• Don't be a cheapskate when buying (Practice fair trade)
• Support Restaurants that use locally grown produce
• Volunteer or Donate

I think the last part is the most applicable right now for us and how we could use the funds that we have collected. (Thank you to those who donated)

There are a couple of organizations that could accept donations towards improving the quality of life of the Filipino Farmers.[3]

• MASIPAG (Magsasaka at Siyentipuko para sa Pag-unlad ng Agrikultura)
• PAKISAMA (Pambansang Kilusan Ng Mga Samahang Magsasaka),
• https://www.cropital.com/

With all listed above, I could try to contact them on how the process would go and how it could help the farmers.

Let me know guys if you agree with this. I hope everyone would agree and feel free to suggest that could help

There could be a lot of reasons why you want to hide your identity.

• Protection from DOX
• You committed criminal acts
• Famous

And more of other reasons why but why wouldn't you want to do KYC? It gives back and forth protection with the casino. Personally, I don't like to do KYC but if the company is trusted by other people and is registered with the right authorities, that's okay. I just don't think everyone would use cryptocurrencies with gambling because they are already making a lot of money using fiat. Think about it.
