Back then when CSGO gambling was still alive, I deposited $400 worth of virtual items, made up to $2,400 and eventually lost it all just to chase a few extra dollars. The tilt back then Sad

I remember, it was really cool, but then I knew about all skins and their prices, I gave $ 20 and I got $ 570, I can not forget it.


Thats the thrill about skin gambling, from a few dollars to a knife. I really missed those days.

There are so many stories in this thread, and I can't help myself from laughing on some of these crazy stories Cheesy
I really don't think that these are all true, and if might be, this is actually absurd Tongue

CSGO? Counter Strike Global Offensive? Am I seeing this right? CSGO has a gambling moment on its existence? I thought it was only a mere game on steam?

Oh yes, that shooter game. CSGO gambling took off since 2013/ 14 until the company decided to "kill off" the skin trading last year. Skins back then costed up to over TEN GRAND due to the rarity. For instance, this rare skin costs up to over $1,000 because its obtained from crates that costs almost $50 at a low probability.



Now most sites rely on Bitcoin and VGO (cryptocurrency skin).

My friend does that with sports betting. He knows how to pick a winning ticket but he simply has to give a part back to the bookies Grin
Once, he won $1.200, and placed $200 on a random match. The bet was that the away team would score the next goal in the remaining time. About 20 mins still left in the match - and he lost.

When I asked him why, he said I had to try.


Haha, your friend is playing smart here Smiley Im not sure if your friend's site does this, but there's a term called gubbing which is basically restricting the punter's waging limits for winning too much. Simply put, the casino gets butthurt for losing to this player and starts making things difficult.

Match betting is fun, but you've to be patient and do lots of homework on the teams you're betting on.

Basically what vit05 said, in my country electricity is pretty expensive too.

I wanted to list more Beginner/Noob friendly ways.

Also I have really no idea on what it's profitable to mine at the moment and seems that it changes quickly, I couldn't list the right projects.

If you have a BTCTalk threat about that I could put a mention and a link so ripple can inform themselves better

Electricity is pretty much expensive in every country I believe.

I agree with the others mining isn't a very viable considering how much your CPU/ GPU gets squeezed just to generate mere cents. Definitely the most "expensive" option among the rest.

We've just purchased a Copper member and the following message appears:

Copper - 0.00000000 BTC: Allows you to post images even if you are a newbie, reduces the time-between-actions limit, and provides some of the same benefits as being of natural Member rank.

You have paid a total of 0.00208333 BTC, pending confirmation. This is reflected in the above prices. (To get the normal price, add this amount to the above prices.)

Should I simply wait for the transactions to be confirmed, or any further action is required? I am still not seeing an option to "wear" the copper membership.

Worry not, this has been addressed according to the page itself:
Quote
Pay to the Bitcoin address 3MVd6Ec1VPQ4bKAcdkVN6FqAEuHL4vKpfN. Once your transaction has 1 confirmation, revisit this page and then use the form which will appear in order to wear your new membership. Your transaction will not be accepted until it has 1 confirmation. Bitcoin network fees and exchange/wallet withdrawal fees will not count toward your payment.

We are commonly asked how we know that you sent a payment. The address above was newly generated just for you, so when any BTC is sent to it, we will know to credit it to your account. It is all automatic.

I believe that everyone who says that this is the end for Bitcoin, doesn't quite understand what is happening. People say that bitcoin has fallen, and say that this is bad for all of us. But, wait a minute, if, with its popularity, Bitcoin fell, then after that an upward movement should follow. Am I wrong? I think the logic of this is simple.

Nice username you have there.
7207  Other / New forum software / Re: Is there a mobile friendly way to view the forums? on: January 18, 2019, 08:13:44 AM
There's a topic that claims to be mobile friendly: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4500633.0
As long as such applications are not officially issued by the forum admins/developers, their use involves a risk.
Being open source does not mean that it is 100%.
There are some browsers like Opera, Puffin, and UC that give nice and good interfaces when browsing this forum but using PC to browse this site give you better results.

There are mobile users like us too, and viewing it on cellphones is a major eyesore.

The team really has to roll out the new update soon.
7208  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin Over? on: January 18, 2019, 08:02:20 AM

A lot of ways are being used to mine Bitcoin so I don't think you need to worry about that.

Also, Bitcoin is being mined, not being produced. Bitcoin with a lot of people using right now, it is hard to determine or to predict when will it be ending. A lot of people also stated that it might end soon but the price are still continuing to have its own movements. As long as there are a lot of people that wants to invest on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin will continue to exist.

Exactly. Especially in the gambling scene, BTC made things much simpler and more fun to enjoy.

Out of the shittons of tokens I hold, less than 5 are sellable (after covering withdraw fees) while the rest are either not on exchanges or have gone belly up.

But if you need the collateral, how? That's why as a seller, you're insured from scammers and as a borrower, you get access to cash without actually liquidating your assets unless you default.

Is this giveaway just once per user, or we could ask multiple times?

Definitely once per user. Imagine how much abuse if everyone could request over and over.

7218  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance freezes stolen Cryptopia funds on: January 17, 2019, 09:59:59 AM
So binance can freeze your account? hmm.. okay then back to the subject, how come they send the funds straight to binance not considering that they can be traced? Considering the fact that they HACKED an exchange. They must have known that.

My guess is that they send the funds and liquidate them hopefully before Binance catches wind of the incident.

Not many exchanges could react on time (like Binance).

Did you mean that exchanges are NOT meant for storing coins and tokens you wanted to hold? I just figuring out the posts because it is the opposite of the idea you convey about losing coins in an exchange. Anyway, It is best to keep coins and tokens in an offline or hardware wallet. This to secure the holdings but if you are doing trading then sadly you need to transfer the coins in the exchange. One thing you will going to do is to trust the exchange. This exchanges are somehow making you agree about the liabilities when you use the service. So, if I were to use trade I should get into a good exchange like Binance. Picking good crypto should be at the exchange like this.

Actually not all coins are on good exchanges. Plus, many are not willing to wait because the prices might tank by the time they support them.
