Back a year and a half ago, I have completed several bug bounties for betking (seeking vulnerabilities and getting paid if found any).
Dean was cordial and paid me well. Didn't get any problem with him.
This being said, I know nothing about the situation today. Just sharing my short experience.
Betking was once a good paying site but things have changed a lot since then. There are a lot of scam accusations against them and the overall experience of the community using betking doesn't look nice  |

How long paypal is going to you say this kind of stories, Bitcoin is not controlled by anyone but it has been manipulated in very short by the people who has very huge amount of funds.
China cannot control the bitcoins. Bitcoin is only controlled by the whales who hold a big amount of bitcoins. They can dump or pump the bitcoins by manipulation as they hold large amount of fund. |

Waiting for bitcoin in September for 6000 dollars. Advertising on the type of tank and the ETF has already played and in the summer there will be a big dump.
Bitcoin will not come to 6000$ again. There are many people who sold bitcoins at 7000$ thinking it will dump, but it went to 13000$. Now all these people will rebuy bitcoin as soon as it touches these levels so the price will bounce back from the support immediately. |

Bitcoin had taken it's forth parabolic phase and may take another all-time high that may drop a price of over $100,000 USD, I guess this is a new trend and may simply take the world of cryptocurrency by storm again. And many traders had confirmed this parabolic phase to settle in this bull trend, What do you guys think? Any comments about this. https://cryptoslate.com/bitcoin-long-term-trend-bullish-short-term-not-so/Thinking of $100,000 USD bitcoin price at the present moment is not realistic and i do not know when bitcoin will reach this figure. It may take 4 to 5 years before bitcoin can reach such high value. No trading trend can predict when bitcoin will reach this high value. |

OMG  how is this possible in the first place? Damn I'm glad I don't use google calendar on my phones,too many physical calendars in my home Same here. I also do not use google calendar as i use the built in calendar in my iphone. But this is a brand new way of scamming people. Previously people used to scam people by emails but that has become too predictable and many people already aware of it. |

BitcoinTX: I would say that a website to watch the mempool, estimate the fees and also accelerate transactions would be a great idea.
CryptoGear: A website to sell merch related to crypto.
BitcoinOptimist: Sounds suitable for running a blog.
BitcoinExplode: Maybe for charts, sending alerts depending on the price changes or something similar.
Wow, thanks a ton for the ideas! I just couldn't think of anything and now it seems kind of obvious... I knew these domains had potential, do you have any advice for starting a website like this? I have some experience in web development, but I figure you might have some idea on where to start in the crypto world? Are all these domain names available ? I see a few of domain name showing is it owned by "Aero Blue". Maybe you have already bought these domain names ? All of these names are good. If your project is a good one, it will become popular, regardless of the domain name. |

Classic. Telegram is full of scamers. the best way is ignore them cause they have million of fake accounts. the most popular way - pretending to be an exchange admin. after joining Telegram group they will text you private with questions - how can i help you etc.. even if u dont have any issues.
Thats really annoying.
Although telegram is one of the best app to get updated information about crypto currencies projects but many people misuse this and pretend to be the owners of certain ico or other famous persons and demand money from them in return of some investment or schemes. Newbie traders or those who are recently involved in bitcoin easily get trapped by them and they scam money from people. |

Freewallet is a red flag and shouldn't be used by crypto investors,if its a must for you just make sure you keep coins that have no value on freewallet and keep high valued coins on wallet with private keys
As the crypto currency will become more popular we will see more and more crypto wallets and apps being developed and many of those apps will be to scam people by collecting their private keys and stole their funds. Freewallet is one example of how these wallet can scam the people who are not aware which wallets are trusted ones. |

Imo the most important is not the trading fees or withdrawal fees or whatever those points you mentioned. The most important is the reputation, especially in forums such as Reddit and bitcointalk.
Do they hold funds hostage ? Do they demand kyc to withdrawal? Were they hacked in the pas?t how did they deal with that?
Security always first.
Well no exchange is 100% secure. Even binance exchange was hacked earlier this year. The main thing to consider while choosing the exchange is the volume. The more volume the exchange has, means more people are willing to deposit and trade on those exchanges. |

Those who cheat money and effort of others will pay the price. In 2018 bitconnect is also one of the global scam projects. There are still many projects of professional nature. I have not trusted the ICO since the end of 2018, please look to IEO, it is safer than ICO
IEO are safer only if you invest in ieo from exchange like binance etc. Small exchanges ieo can still scam you. What is most shocking about Centra ICO is that it raised $32 million from ICO. It means people have lost 32 million who invested in this project. Also this is just one project. we cannot imagine how much people have lost in overall scam icos. |

In my opinion if you invest in Bitcoin it's better to relax and not think satisfied with what you have now because I believe Bitcoin will continue to grow, if you make a decision to sell, I'm sure you will regret selling it, but all decisions are in the hands You, how you think about it yourself and you also have to look at the global market price situation so you don't lose your investment.
If you have the holding power, then you should not sell your bitcoins now. Even if the bitcoin moves down, just do not sell and wait for the prices to rise near the all time high value. Trading is the best way to multiply your BTC besides that holding it now is the convenient way for those who don't have time for trading.
Trading is risky and if you are not a good trader you can end up losing the money also. If you are not a professional trader, i will suggest you to keep the bitcoin with you and do not involve in trading. |

Bitcoin is the most important coin. You had to invest in it in the first place. In the long run, it shows excellent results. It's never too late to buy it. But with the rest coins need to be cautious.
Yes, bitcoin is the best coin to invest in but if you need more profits, then altcoins are much better. Bitcoin can to to 2x from here in few months while altcoins can give us 2x or more in less than a month also. The best portfolio is the combination of bitcoins and good altcoins. I would suggest you to invest in top 20 altcoins. |

I am newbie in trading. can you guys please help me ? How much money do I need to get started?
for beginners I might suggest $ 100 for the beginning of you as a trader. but the thing you need to know is, you have to choose coins that can potentially be the bitcoin you choose as the best trader coin, 100$ is the right amount to start the trading but before investing in trading, a new trader should first learn the trading. You can learn it from any of your experienced friend (if you have any friend who is already doing trading). If not, you can search the internet and YouTube and get well conversed with trading methods and techniques. If you start the trading without getting knowledge of it, chances are that you will lose all the amount. |

What do you guys think? Bitcoin at 9400$ right know
Well, that's the sign for bitcoin to turn 14k$ this month I guess. So as long as the price was still on below 10k$ it is really a good chance for the traders to buy em according what you can afford to buy, then hold just very simple as that. Bitcoin can easily reach 14K within two months so it is good to buy bitcoin now at 10,500$. A few days back the bitcoin price was near 9100$ but it bounced back from there. I am expecting another bull run in bitcoin prices, so those who missed the previous bull run, this might be the chance for them to buy the bitcoins now at cheap prices. |

The casinos most revenue however is from the 95% that gamble less than 5 figures, because there are many of those people and since they are mostly gambling with scared money, they usually are greedy and fearful and the casino makes a profit off them. Someone who bets in the 5 figure range usually has a net worth of 7 figures and they gamble without greed or fear and usually end up winning, if not they do it for fun.
The people with money who spend millions of dollars in casinos will be given a VIP status and they will give them perks and other offers and lower house edges to gamble and they will do that for compulsive gamblers who usually spent money on them and if you are a good gambler they will black list you and will never allow you to gamble in the first place buddy, there are many documented cases you can find online and if you want a particular case check the documentary on Don Johnson. For regular gamblers who do a lot of gambling, VIP status can be something valuable for them. They will be considered as preferred customers and they will be first ones to be given the offers and bonus by the gambling site. The gambling houses also do not want the high wagering gamblers to go to another site and hence give such status. |

The reason is simple: Consider Market Capitalization and you will understand why Ripple is one of the best to have at both Primedice and Stake  With future growth of Ripple, Ripple investors will feel much happy and use part of their coins to bet on casinos, includes PrimeDice and Stake.com. There were some flippenings between Ethereum and Ripple in the second and third positions on coinmarketcap.com in the past. It is obviously that Ripple is a very very strong altcoin I know there is alot of negativity against Ripple. Many people claim its not really an alt-coin because its pre-mined essentially and way too centralized. But its actually a pretty useful coin. I've used it in the past when I had to quickly transfer between exchanges and never had issues. Its good because most exchanges support it. However for some reason many gambling sites that list alt coins don't use ripple, never really understood it. I think most of the top 10 alts should be used with most gambling sites. I do agree that Ripple is centralized and many people do not like xrp but remember this is a gambling site. If someone has ripple he can directly deposit them in stake.com to gambling, rather than first converting them to bitcoins and then depositing. The more options of deposit the gambling site give, the better and easy it is for the gamblers. |

so far, I am still trying to collect assets so that I can buy a house. well, I am targeting a house that is not so luxurious. I think that many people have bought homes using crypto, and I aim to be one of them.
it's not about dreams bro. The OP offers its home in Brazil. You do not read this thread in its entirety. You only fulfill your post obligations here. very funny And you also do not read the post properly as OP has written that post in 2010 when bitcoin was not famous at all. If OP had offered his home to sell at the present time, he might have get some people interested in his offer but in 2010, no one would ever think to buy a house with bitcoin. |

You could of start accepting other CC aswell, Like Litecoin for example.
Bitcoin has one drawback that is, it is slow in confirmation time. There are many other altcoins whom transactions gets confirmed within seconds the transactions are made. Business may prefer such altcoins in the business which requires quick confirmation like in coffee bar etc. |

A few months ago, the Yobit exchange official telegram group was deleted and the admin account was banned permanently from telegram as far as I know. If someone from a random group sends bulk promotional messages, the system detects it as spam. If the majority of pm receivers report the spam then that account will be deleted.
I didn't know about that so that's what people must do, you should report those telegram groups and if the authority of telegram finds out that scam, they will soon ban it to their system. At last, there's a way to stop these scammers if they will continue doing things like this. Telegram should do a cleaning on their platform itself and remove these accounts that's priority to scam. Easy to say but actually hard to be done by Telegram creators itself.Getting rid of these scammers into these platform would really be like an unending story yet people would just keep on making new accounts for the purpose of scamming not only to this place but in all messaging mediums. As long as there will be staffs that will tune in to this single problem that their platform is tackling every single day, the scammers will eventually stop if most of their created accounts will be banned or erased by telegram staff. Needless to say, for those users of the platform stay vigilant and just like what your parents have been telling you all of the time. Never trust a stranger in that platform. The job would be more easier if people do report such possible scam attempts because it cant be spotted directly so the help of the community would really badly needed on these kind of situations. Sensibility on your ownself would be the main thing that would help you out to avoid these things. Right. Be sensible on whatever decisions you take because once a mistake is committed, it will never be undone. There are a lot of scammers around just waiting for a perfect timing to lure people and put them in his own pocket. But if we learn how to avoid them, then scamming will be slightly reduced. Its strange that people often hear about scams and yet they fall for the same scam themselves. Everyone knows that fake people can reach out to you in telegram and social media and may try to scam you by various methods. We become greedy and fall in such traps. |

That is one of the reasons why I prefer to play online rather than physically going to a casino to play there.I am the kind of person who like privacy and quietness when gambling, also I don't like smoke, drugs or gambling addicts like the person in this story description.
Everytime I read these kind of stories I become more and more convinced that online gambling is better.
Its better, but in real casinos are very interesting and you can really experience, if you compare in online casinos. Royal gamble will happen if the gamblers are not control their emotion, especially if they losing money at the moment and it is difficult for them to recover their losses. But everyone has our own comfort, for me, if I choose to do regular gambling, I would also choose online casino than a regular casino due to the reasons stated by swogerino. You are safe and you can be private in an online casino, especially now that in crypto casinos, you are not required to pass the KYC. I also prefer to play gambling online and there are two reasons for it. First the online gambling casino are accessible from everywhere and anytime, secondly we do not have many physical gambling houses so the most of the people prefer online gambling in my country. |
