The sig. for the Sr. member rank it is not seen "properly", I think this is the correct format ( or at least it is better): Sr. Member FortuneJack.com - No.1 Cryptocurrency Casino / 1 BTC Bonus / Award Winning Games [size=18pt][url=https://fortunejack.com][b][color=#FF9600]FortuneJack.com [/color][color=#e7aa18]- No.1 Cryptocurrency Casino / 1 BTC Bonus / Award Winning Games [/color][/b][/url][/size] Better, but I'd change the colour of "No.1...Games". And the font size seems too big |

Really nice terms and payments. I'll stay with PRCDice for now tho, as I don't like the 10 posts/week in gambling section thing (would have to spam to meet the requirement).

Even if this is true or not,they do get deserved to be sued for it.
I mean after all, since this was proven not to be true, why did they refuse to take it down and/or apologize publicly?
Agree, I'd love to see them paying compensation to Dorian. But as far as I know, Newsweek never admitted that they were wrong. If they did publically apologize, it would not only damage their reputation, but would make suing them much easier. ...
In any case due to the number of news stories and discussions I just think it is a play by the lawyers to get some cash and the claim will go nowhere.
It's pretty obvious. If they'll manage to get crowdfunded, they will get their money either way, win or lose. EDIT: So far they raised ~1.9 BTC (and already cashed out 0.635 ?): https://blockchain.info/address/1LK3uHXhXPzR6M7AfAMQk4vBgTtQLw2kGC |

Anything preventing merchants from directly dumping their bitcoin for fiat sounds good for bitcoin in the long run. We need more merchants to reuse bitcoins rather than dump for fiat.
And what can you do to prevent that from happening? You can either prohibit it (stupid) or give merchants incentives to keep their Bitcoins instead of dumping their for their local fiat (so far not very productive unless you want simply to hold and speculate with the price). If the merchants accepting bitcoin would pay their employees in bitcoins (in full, or partially) that would reduce the dumping to some degree. I think that's what he meant. Sure, the employees could convert to fiat on the same day, but it's more likely some of them would decide to hold, especially if they opted to be paid in bitcoins voluntarily. |

2 Questions regarding affiliate program:
1- Does it work for DOGE?
2- Should earnings be displayed immediately in affiliate dashboard and payments made on Mondays? Or will it be displayed and paid on Mon?
I tested it, signed up through my affiliate link, wagered some DOGEs. My 2nd account is shown in dashboard, but earnings say zero. I should be entitled to few satoshis tho.
HOw much did you get in joining their affiliate program as of now?  |

That's arbitrary. If he is Satoshi, then yes it's newsworthy. But if such assumption was based only on questionable evidence (name-match, the fact he didn't trust government too much etc) then the court may decide it was not newsworthy and that they violated his privacy. Edit:
Dude, read all of what you said in reverse.
What you essentially said is that everyone should be considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law (and perhaps after all appeals have expired as well).
...
That's not at all what I said. Dude. |

If you are outside then you do not have a reasonable expectation that your picture will not be taken. This is regardless if you are a "public" person (  ) or not. Newsweek took information that was available publicly, published a group of such information and made a conclusion (one that was likely faulty). This is also not illegal as anyone could find this information if they wanted to. If Newsweek thinks that something is newsworthy then they have the right to publish it. They have an incentive to make an accurate conclusion regarding facts as if they do not then people will not take them seriously and will be unable to fill their advertisement spots I don't want to pose as an expert, which I'm not and I know nothing about US laws in this matter. But based on laws in some of the European countries you cannot just publish someone's image and details, unless it's a 'public person' (politician, actor etc). It's not about taking a pictures or publically available information, but about publishing it. To use extreme example, would it be legal if some reporter took a picture of you and published it (together with your details) labelling you as 'possible paedophile' - conclusion based only on fact that he saw you walking near primary school? The common sense dictates it wouldn't and I'm sure you could easily sue them. So think it's all down to whether Newsweek had evidence 'strong enough' to make such assumption. And that's for the court to decide. |

The affiliate program is for Bitcoin only. Earnings won't be displayed until they are paid on the Monday. However when PRCDice 2 launches I will make it display instantly. OK Would you consider adding DOGE to affiliate system in PRCDice2, making it worthwhile to promote among dogecoin community? |

Im not mad, i didnt invest in right before halving.
Just saying that this coin dont have future.
What was that pump? Not even 120 and dump?
We will never reach ~280 again. Am i wrong?
Welcome to the magic world of cryptos! Why do you care bout reaching 280? Despite the inflation and no cap, price sits pretty stable at over 70 sats, not bad, not too long ago it was around 20 sats. |

An author is a person who materializes a message -- in this case, as electronic text.
If I copy/paste Satoshi's whitepaper - would you consider me as an author of it? ...Notice that he offered up his opinion as well as quoted material....
Can you point the part of the text that is 'his opinion'? Did you even bother to click on the link? |

Again, and again.
Next time dont tell that Doge will rise after halving.
Always the same situation, target 0.
Next time, before "investing", do your homework. Halving has big effect on the price, but the price goes up BEFORE halving and drops right after. |

Back in March, Newsweek published what would have been one of the year's biggest technology scoops. An article by Leah McGrath Goodman claimed to have unmasked Satoshi Nakamoto, the reclusive — and likely pseudonymous — genius who invented Bitcoin. Goodman pointed to an elderly Japanese-American engineer named Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto who was living in Southern California. Dorian vehemently denied any connection to Bitcoin, and Goodman's story — based overwhelmingly on circumstantial evidence, quickly crumbled. Yet Newsweek refused to admit that the story, which appeared on the cover of its first print edition under new ownership — was wrong. The Bitcoin community saw the Newsweek article — which revealed intimate details of his personal life and quoted family members making unflattering comments about him — as a serious invasion of an elderly man's privacy. They quickly raised more than $20,000 to help him cover personal expenses. And now, Dorian's law firm has has created a website to raise more funds to file a lawsuit against Newsweek. "A lawsuit against Newsweek will be very expensive," the website, created by the law firm of Kirschner and Associates, says. "Dorian does not have the resources to pay the costs of such a suit, let alone attorneys' fees. Monies raised by the Fund will be used to further Dorian's legal claims against Newsweek; anything remaining will be given directly to Dorian for his expenses." Why would the Bitcoin community donate to support Dorian's lawsuit? Many in the Bitcoin community see the Newsweek's story as a symptom of the mainstream media's clumsy treatment of Bitcoin more generally. Bitcoin is a complex, technical subject; it has been widely misunderstood and even mocked by mainstream journalists. Some Bitcoin fans see Goodman's bumbling investigation — she cites Dorian's skill machining parts for model trains as evidence that he had the engineering prowess to create Bitcoin, for examples — as a particularly egregious case of Bitcoin-related journalistic malpractice. They may be willing to contribute in order to hold the magazine accountable in court.

I'd like to join... for the last time. PocketRocketsCasino, I have replied you PM.
If verifying some posts that was written in foreign language is the problem, up to now almost every post written by logofeek, Zhan21 and jiayuan (and maybe more... sorry guys, but no offense meant) except the enrolling post in this thread is in Chinese.
Yes, OP you do have the right to choose. But my first application was in page 2, much earlier than many participants. I'd still be thankful if you enlist me.
He still hasn't replied?? Come on Dean, answer the man He ditched the other campaign for this one, would be nice to let him know whether he's in or not |

This whole fundraiser is a bullshit. Putting all the above arguments aside (bad reputation of attorney, possible fraud attempt). Basically they're asking for the community to pay the firm's fees. "A lawsuit against Newsweek will be very expensive," the website, created by the law firm of Kirschner and Associates, says. "Dorian does not have the resources to pay the costs of such a suit, let alone attorneys' fees. Monies raised by the Fund will be used to further Dorian's legal claims against Newsweek; anything remaining will be given directly to Dorian for his expenses." If they believe he has a solid chance of winning, why not provide a service on 'no win-no fee' basis. You hear all the time about some poor bastards suing big companies over some bullshit... What's actually 'very expensive' here, other than attorney's cost/fees? This case will grab some media attention (or already did) so it's a free advertisement for any firm representing Dorian. Whether this is a fraud attempt or not, I hope Newsweek gets sued (by a proper law firm). |

Is this serious? What exactly did newsweek do wrong? Everything they have is public information anyway. Can't possibly be a lawsuit, otherwise criminals could always sue the news, am I right?
Dorian is not (was not) a public person. They published his name, photos, full details based on the incorrect assumption that he is the creator of bitcoin. The question is did they have a reasonable information to violate his (and his family) privacy. Not to mention they might have put his safety on the risk, as the real Satoshi allegedly owns a huge amount of bitcoins. |

Treat bitcoin as another foreign currency like Euro or Yen. You simply need an accounting software that support multi currency.
Don't think that was what OP meant. Some banks, cc would produce a stats of your income/expenses, something like: "this month you've spent 20% of your income on food, 10% on gas, 50% on alcohol..." etc. Accounting software usually requires to input data on regular basis, so not really suitable for personal, non-business use. |
