Bakkt is not the only platform to get your BTCs at so it's possible that people are still on their regular exchanges doing their regular thing. And it's only a few hours on Bakkt's opening so it makes sense that the data isn't that high yet. I agree that the results are somewhat underwhelming given the hype it has received for the past year, but we'll never know what it brings within the next coming days. The hype generated + the results we're seeing right now doesn't match our expectations so far, and that's something.

The statistics for the number of bitcoin ATMs created within the last year does not necessarily mean that people are using it directly. With how enormous the fees can be on these little wankers, one can easily avoid it and go through all the required processes of KYC in order to get a better deal. I came across those things when I'm still in Canada, none of the people there seemed to bother using it nor checking it out. Traders are still going to the traditional cryptocurrency exchange platforms to trade their bitcoin and fiat, and not through a machine that asks for exorbitant fees that could easily be avoided.

If you can show the statistics for bitcoin ATMs servicing people in the past year, that would be nice.

Ganitong ganito ang ginagawa ng mga tao noon bago pa man maghigpit ang mga awtoridad sa KYC at iba pang legal requirements bago makapag-umpisa ang isang ICO/IEO kung ano man yan. Naranasan kong makasali sa isang team noon at pagkatapos namin mag-live sa isang exchange, dinadump na karamihan ng mga stakeholders ng ICO ang kanilang pre-mine bullshit sa market after ng initial pump, kaya simula noon ay hindi na ako tumatanggap ng projects mula sa ibang lahi na nag-fofocus sa ganitong uri ng kalakaran.

I might be wrong but is this some form of a test-only gambling platform which people can try out provably-fair systems before getting out on the real gambling sites? Because if it is not, then you are asking for bankruptcy at all (well you must be rich guys to begin with since you have answered that you don't do this for the profit). Zero-percent house-edge is not yet seen on this industry, and the most common is 0.1% and that's the lowest I've seen. Just checked out the site and perhaps some design tweaks would help.

IMO, CEZA can get its hands off dito sa nilulutong panukala ng mga mambabatas tungkol sa digital assets at cryptocurrencies. Totoo na maraming interesadong kumpanya ang gustong pumasok sa Cagayan Special Economic Zone, pero sa aking palagay ay hindi ito sapat na grounds upang sumali sa mga tagapangasiwa ng nasabing panukala ang CEZA. Marami nang anomalya ang nangyayari sa nasabing ahensya ng gobyerno na ito para pagkatiwalaan sa isang bagay na involve ang malakihang pera kung sakali.

Dapat pang pag-aralan ng gobyerno ang digital assets at cryptocurrencies, at dapat ay tignan muna nila ang ibang mga bansa upang pumulot ng ideya bago sila gumawa ng pansariling atin.

It could happen, though it will take a long while before traditional gambling houses and casinos incorporate bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies within their services. Should they go with this, it would take a lot of change in their license and everything else to conform with the local laws and regulations concerning gambling places and cryptocurrencies. Until most of the countries established a working law/regulation with cryptocurrencies, gambling establishments won't dare touch it even with a ten-feet pole.

Unfortunately, I don't. I haven't come across any official bookie that supports these kinds of events.


It's hard to keep track of one individual given how obscure these names might be, and every year, most of the names included in the games are changing. It's a highly-volatile event with little consistency on player participations so no, I don't think this is a good event to risk some money on.


No and no. Perhaps on viewership it is popular, but given the lack of interest on the betting side of things, there's little to no markets/bookies offering it for bets.

Meron akong ginawang thread sa Meta patungkol dito, pero hindi ito gaanong napansin gawa ng merit-centric na yata ang board na yun at kadalasang nalilimutan na ang ibang aspeto ng forum na ito (pasintabi po). Ako, kasalukuyang gumagawa ng dissertation ko para sa aking doctorate degree, at may ilang araw talagang hanggang basa lang ako at hindi nakakapag-post dahil sobrang busy. Okay na sa akin ang 20 minutes - 1 hr na interval gawa ng may iba nga akong ginagawa at hindi naman ako full-time nakatutok sa forum. Nakaka sampung post pa rin ako kung minsan sa isang araw at hindi naman ito finaflag as post-burst dahil nga may interval pa rin at depende na rin sa campaign manager kung ano sa tingin niya ang post bursting at hindi.

Perhaps they just don't have enough traffic to cover up for the wins that you got. The site and service itself seem to be on the wild west of bookies. Never heard of it, nor even some review aggregators on the web. Might as well avoid it and move on.

Also, what made you bet on a low-traffic, relatively unknown gambling platform anyway?

A huge possibility, I say, given the fluidity of cryptocurrencies and much easier access to it rhan bank transfers and whatnot. Also, some banks are prohibiting users from sending their own money into such kinds of services, which plainly sucks because you can't use your own money into spending it wherever you want. In cryptocurrencies, the user has the liberty to spend it everywhere, anywhere, provided that the merchant is accepting it in their establishment. Slowly, traditional online bookies are creeping into the ecosystem seeing how much market/money there is to be made here.

This discussion would be more fitting on other tech-forums IMO, or it can snug itself in the Technical sub-forums. Or, it can also seek its place within the Mining section--though it's not exclusively mining-related but it's a core component of the said process. 5-6 pages of the said topic, most of which are from years ago, IMO isn't enough demand to create a new board of its own. It's a fun stuff to discuss about, and I do have my own sets of Dell Optiplex and other compact PCs (mini-ITX builds) since they save space in the office and inside my house, but yeah, this is more of a bitcoin-centric forum revolving around things on bitcoin and not form-factor of nodes and other gears.

I am thinking along the lines of telemetry software system for this "unidirectional" transfer system that they are trying to advertise or convey to the public. I'm a fan of such, if we're still in the 1960s-1970s but right now, that's just too slow in today's standards. But if this was embedded in an offline wallet, it could work knowing that there are only a few bytes of data included in sending and receiving transaction data. I'm somewhat confused along the lines of "hot wallet functionalities." If the system is capable of doing such, I'm assuming that they achieved offline transmissions on a long-range at high speeds, but I doubt it--or perhaps I'm getting rusty on my tech knowledge.

I don't think there'd be any difference at all knowing that Binance only got their license and they were forced to move from the US temporarily because they don't have the necessary license to operate in the American soil. Also, Binance is more on the altcoin side of things and not really bitcoin, although they also have bitcoin but not really that much substantial on the market compared to the big names in exchanges.

The US never banned crypto, too, and it will be too far-fetched for it to happen knowing that they are already benefiting from the cryptosphere and industries built around it.

Gaya ng sabi ni mjglqw, priced-in na ang bitcoin sa partikular na panahon na ito, pero hindi ito dahilan upang hindi natin abangan ang maaaring mangyari sa mga susunod na buwan bago ang halving. Ang nakaraang halving, ilang buwan pa bago nagkaroon ng malaking epekto ang pagbawas ng block reward ng bitcoin, at marahil ito rin ang mangyari pero hindi pa rin natin alam. Sa ngayon, marami ang nakaantabay sa price appreciation ng bitcoin due to block halving, at maaaring magkaroon din ito ng positibong epekto dahil susundan ng karamihan ang ganitong price action.

At siyempre, huwag nating kalimutan ang potential scenario kung saan maaaring mawala ang momentum bago ang halving. Marahil hindi pa ito nangyayari sa mga nagdaang cycle ngunit hindi ito sapat na dahilan upang mapigilan ang matindihang correction sa oras mismo ng halving.

I would take KSI any day, knowing how hard he made Logan Paul work on the first fight that they had. Also, Logan is more of a prick and not really a fighter at all. He's doing it for the clout as the young ones call it on vines and whatnot. But on a serious note, I would not spend a single penny or bet on any one of these vloggers turned boxers (obviously for the money and the followers) at all. The last one was not even a fight IMO, just pure running and two idiots throwing weak punches at each other without an intention to hurt the other one badly.

Apart from the traffic the site is having on a regular basis, I think the main selling point of the domain and where most of the value lies is on the fact that the one who has it controls a significant amount of followers--especially the new ones--because they can easily post whatever the hell they like on that website and people would believe it without second thoughts. Also knowing Roger Ver, the dude is egotistic at best, and would not sell his only prized possession currently.. not that his forked coin isn't worth something..

I'm playing in two currently, namely Mintdice and Bitsler and I enjoy the dice games. I don't really have a set strategy when playing on these plarforms but I do know when I would stop, especially when I lost a huge amount on my initial bankroll. There are times that I go crazy and go all in for one time and so far, I haven't lost on my all-ins. Tried martingale, bt that doesn't bring me any luck though.

One of the many reasons why privacy is still a very important aspect nowadays in this world full of famewhores and wannabes. Who knows what the guy endured for a year before getting killed, and even with the ransom paid in full, they still killed him. It's really hard to make a footing in the crypto world and establish your business. Getting known publicly is a double-edged sword, and Creighton definitely suffered at the sharper end of it.

This is not entirely gambling-related but rather a concern worthy of being discussed in the Bitcoin Discussiom boards.

This would be a good fun game tbh, although it's hard to actually know if someone else on the other side is cheating or not--but of course that could easily be prevented if there would be a service/platform that would overseer the said games/activity. Shame that only a few people are interested into buying the in-game coins for cosmetics, tournament entries and whatnot. That could have been a nice experience, too, if the market is really big and there are a lot of interested users playing the game.

Perhaps established gambling services here in this forum would heed our call.

Been a customer of coins.ph since 2014. Napaka-ayos lang talaga ng flow ng service nila at napakaraming embedded na retailers/outlets na pwedeng paggamitan ng bitcoin mo kung ayaw mo i-cash out. Naka-custom limit din ako sa kanila when it comes to deposit and cash-outs. Since the process of in-depth KYC started in late 2017, napaalam nila agad sa ating mga users kung ano ang kailangang gawin at kung ano ang mga requirements. Walk-in ko kinumpleto lahat ng kanilang mga requirements at within 3 business days, natapos ang proseso at Level 4 verified ako. Hindi ako umaabot sa pagte-trade ng ganun kalaking halaga pero kampante naman ako sa pagbigay ng detalye sa kanila.
