661  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Earning More Post Rewards on Steemit via Oracle-D on: April 02, 2019, 01:22:25 PM
Just a quick update, I've just won another contest hosted by Oracle-D and State of the Dapps.
My article wad picked among 200 other entries and I'm getting a full upvote from them on my new Steem article!

More info:
https://steemit.com/media/@dapplovers/announcing-the-winners-of-review-a-media-dapp-contest-ft-state-of-the-dapps

I'm @daan on Steemit btw, you can also see that in my Bitcointalk profile.

Why should you feel guilty? There's nothing worse than a person who's just blindly shilling for the company that's sponsoring them through their signature.
Heck, if Crypto-Games ever came up to me and complained that I was talking too much about gambling addiction, I'd just leave their campaign. (not that they'd do that)

That said, I simply do not have anything negative to say about their service. That isn't shilling either, if they suddenly started scamming people, I'd mention it as well.

Just post what you would normally post!

@mindrust

Sure it could be that they're 'part of the scam', as you mention, but where is the proof?

The proof is in front of your eyes.

I posted it above.

--snip--

First of all, resize your images, no-one wants to scroll an extra 10 seconds to get to the bottom of the page.

Second, the fact that CMC lists supposed untrustworthy exchanges isn't a big deal, they can list them and exclude the volume & prices of their averages.
As I've clearly shown in my screenshot btw. Yes, they should do this for more exchanges, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't list them at all.

Also, maybe you should cut down on the rudeness, I was entirely friendly to you, so there's no reason to act all passive-aggressive like you did.
664  Other / Meta / Re: Merit Era Newbies are starting to reach Hero Member rank on: March 29, 2019, 07:16:22 PM
Now this is something I love seeing on the forum, it's kinda hinting that the new merit system seems to be working as intended.
Since I've found your post fun to read (I love seeing these kinds of statistics), I'll give you a few merits to reach your next rank Wink

There's one other thing though, this also kinda reminds me that I should perhaps put some more effort into my own posts.
I've been slacking a bit these past couple of weeks and have not put that much useful information onto the forum as I've wanted.
665  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Earning More Post Rewards on Steemit via Oracle-D on: March 29, 2019, 06:38:58 PM
If you're a member of Steemit, you've probably noticed how difficult it can be to earn more than a couple of dollars on your posts, right?
You either have to have huge amounts of Steem Power yourself, or you need to have friends in the right places that will upvote all of your posts.

Well, there's a way around that!

You can occasionally join tasks via Oracle-D or Oracle-D.Tasks that will grant you significant upvotes if you can write decent articles about the projects they're promoting.

The best way to know about these tasks as soon as they're posted, is by joining their Discord channel.



I've recently participated with a couple of their tasks and have managed to earn up to $70 for a single article.
Usually the payout varies from $5 to around $35, depending on the quality of your work

Here's some examples of work I've done for Oracle-D:
https://steemit.com/contest/@daan/winning-the-review-a-social-dapp-contest-by-state-of-the-dapps-oracle-d-and-dapplovers
https://steemit.com/partiko/@daan/meet-partiko-the-social-media-dapp-of-the-future
https://steemit.com/stateofthedapps/@daan/steampeak-dapp-review-steem-front-end-for-power-users
https://steemit.com/blog/@daan/utopian-isn-t-raising-funds-through-fundition-that-doesn-t-mean-individual-projects-can-t
https://steemit.com/utopiancolony/@daan/help-utopian-reach-their-funding-target-on-indiegogo-support-open-source-software



The goal of this post is to make Steem members on Bitcointalk aware that it is possible to earn significant rewards there, without having to know the right people.
Everyone can participate with the open tasks of Oracle-D and if you're good enough, you might even get access to private tasks.

I hope this information is useful to some people!

Disclaimer: Oracle-D chooses which articles they upvote. By making content for Oracle-D, you are not guaranteed an upvote. Though, good work will usually be rewarded!
666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you saw this guy would you punch him in the face? on: March 29, 2019, 06:03:36 PM
Nah, I pity him if he really thinks that Bitcoin can be 'tamed'.
Sure, they can regulate it and make it more user friendly for the average person, but they can't fully stop trades outside of their platforms.

They won't stop me from sending Bitcoin to whoever I want, even if they end up making it illegal, I'd still find away around it.
667  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Publish0x - The next Steemit? on: March 29, 2019, 05:20:04 PM
Steemit was a good platform but some greedy whales destroyed it by introducing the voting bots. I hope this doesn't happen in this platform that you are talking about.
Yes Steemit was a very good concept but it's gone because of these cheatings and I'm suspect it will collapse if no change like ban of the idiots is done. Users will scratch them the back and leave. Another interesting platform is Foresting but not live yet.

LOL, how can they ban people when it's a decentralized platform? I personally regularly upvote people who have way less Steem Power than me and I know a lot of people who do.
The real problem with Steemit is that good content can't be discovered easier and the fact that the trending page is completely controlled by upvote bots.

If Steemit Inc. can deal with the upvote bots and improve content discovery, a lot of the issues would be gone.

Codie251 made it to max reward of 1 BTC, but it's not final yet since there are still 3 days left for this month's wagering contest.


Just checked his profile and saw that he joined just 9 days ago Shocked
So, 9 days after joining, he immediately wins the wagering contest!

With that prize of 1 BTC he's in profit overall too. (if you include his BCH bets)
669  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do none of you feel guilty? on: March 29, 2019, 03:45:56 PM
Nope, people are responsible themselves for what they do.

Do you say the same to people who own a shop that sells alcohol or cigarettes?
Not everybody who does things that are potentially addicted gets addicted.

It's really your own responsibility to prevent yourself from getting addicted or to do something when you are addicted.
670  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: mTurk Equivalent but pays satoshi for task! on: March 29, 2019, 03:13:10 PM
Mturk is great because it is a service supported buy a great company. You know that if you work, you will receive your money. It is hard to trust in a company that nobody knows where you could eventually works for free

I don't agree with anything you've said. It's almost the same as slave labor, you can't ever think to support yourself doing work like that.
Companies are just leeching of off low-skilled labor and I know that some people really do try to make a living out of it.

Sure, they will pay you for the work you've done, but the rates they're offering are just not worth it.
671  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you know about blockchain games? on: March 29, 2019, 02:54:03 PM
Well, I've been playing Steem Monsters quite often on the Steem blockchain.
I think I've put close to 100 hours of time into it, investing around $200 and now I'm at around $700 profit.

Aside from that, I've also looked into Drugwars on Steem, that's not really my thing though.
Not a big fan of the game mechanics of that particular game.
672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A beginner's guide to esports betting on: March 28, 2019, 09:20:15 PM
Really decent guide actually, didn't expect it to contain that much info if I'm being honest.
Too bad that you haven't mentioned Starcraft, it's my personal favourite game to bet on.

Might just not be that popular in the west anymore though.
673  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Netflix for fruits and veggies on: March 28, 2019, 08:47:56 PM
Regarding the blockchain, we are not in a hurry, we also do not plan to announce ICO
Okay, but you mention that you will use 'blockchain' for the referral program.
How exactly will you be using it for that?

What's the advantage of using a blockchain versus just using an existing referral system/script?
Isn't it going to be way more expensive to develop, without having any obvious benefits?
674  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Just had account hacked. Please help :S. on: March 28, 2019, 07:09:39 PM
The absolute first thing you need to do is go file a police report.
The chance that you will see your coins back is low, but if they ever do manage to find a criminal network that's tied to the theft of your coins, you might be able to see some of them back.

I mean, part of Bitfinex stolen coins also were recovered.

675  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: VANTA a SCAM? Wasted 6 weeks working for Vanta without payment on: March 28, 2019, 01:51:05 PM
I think Vanta is not a scam. I noticed myself that Vanta changed the requirements and unfortunately they have the right to do so. That a bounty changes the requirements is nothing new and it's the same as when they demand KYC afterwards. I myself think it's unfair, but if something like this happened, I wouldn't call it scam. Only if Vanta doesn't pay out any token at all, it's a scam, but since they have even provided the token for trading, it is somehow not a scam. Nevertheless I understand your situation and would also be annoyed about it, but unfortunately that does not help you either.  Smiley

Oh bullshit, I wouldn't trust a company that did shady stuff like this, you might as well call it a scam.
They completely deserve to be named and shamed for this and I'm not saying that because I have participated.

I stay away from all these ICO bounty programs in general, unless they pay me upfront in other cryptocurrency like ETH or Bitcoin.
676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does online gambling operations manage gambling addiction? on: March 28, 2019, 11:23:16 AM
I know that Crypto-Games allows players to contact them when they have problems with gambling addiction and they'll ban that player's IP address if they want it.
I think there are perhaps other casinos that offer similar arrangements, but I personally can't think of any examples.

The least that casinos should offer is a link to gambling addiction resources or a helpline.
Most of them do that luckily.
Thats the only thing that they can do on where they can redirect addicted gamblers to those helplines,forums etc. but generally they wont really care at all too much
for their players as long they are making profits with them.Good to know that Cryptogames do offer such banning of IP but its still useless in all sorts because on internet
we can either just simply play with other gambling sites or just simply use vpn then you are ready to go.

Yeah sure, players can easily circumvent it, but at least it's a bit more than just directing addicts to gambling addiction helplines etc.
I think they'll also disable your account, so there's an added step that addicts need to take to start playing again, at least on Crypto-Games.

And yeah, they can always just play on a different site, there's nothing to stop that. Unless there was some sort of system of globally banning IPs across many different gambling sites.
677  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Netflix for fruits and veggies on: March 28, 2019, 11:04:05 AM
Yet another service needlessly planning to implement blockchain into their service, probably to get some additional attention.

Aside from that, damn those boxes are expensive. I hope that at least includes shipping costs.
When I go to my local supermarket, I can easily buy double the amount of products in those boxes for the same amount of money.
And no, I don't live in a third world country where everything is just cheaper.

Sadly, I'm sure there are enough people who would be willing to pay a premium for a service like this, but I'm kinda sick of seeing these sorts of things advertised everywhere.
678  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MOBA Gambling on: March 28, 2019, 10:47:33 AM
So my question is why aren't there any website that could host a MOBA betting for amateurs were they could bet and they could earn from their own skill.

I don't think anyone has mentioned this in this thread, but you can't let players bet on their own games you know...
That just opens the road up for match fixing and it's something that you just can't prevent from happening on these amateur games.

I really don't think its a good idea in general, plus there would be too little demand for it.

Or am I misunderstanding what you're saying?
679  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: My idea for a bitcoin job forum on: March 28, 2019, 10:11:56 AM
P.S. Don't get a free host. If you can spend $5 a month for at least shared hosting, you're just adding an additional layer of worry.

Oh lol, I was under the assumption that the free hosting was just for testing purposes, but now that you mention it, there's nothing that implies this in the OP.
Yeah, I don't think I know any free hosting service without some sort of catch. Usually they place their own ads on your website or severely throttle traffic or whatever.
680  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What do you think of Utopian on the Steem blockchain? on: March 27, 2019, 03:36:31 PM
I do not see anything bad in this, but on the contrary a lot of positives as the platform is engaged in the development of the field of polls and this is commendable and generally promotes the field of cryptocurrencies so I am satisfied with the work of this project and I think that it has a great future.

Huh what? They don't do anything to promote cryptocurrency, they incentivize the development of open-source projects.
Have you even read what I wrote?
