You're obviously talking about gambling addicts. I mean if you're gambling every single day, then that would make someone a gambling addict.
Are these people degenerates? I don't think so, they're people who have a problem. I wouldn't call an addict a degenerate.
They're people like you and me, who simply got addicted to gambling. Shaming them doesn't help anyone, your choice of words makes them seems as though they're less than human.
A little bit of compassion goes a long way and as long as society views people with an addiction as weak or degenerate, the more difficult it becomes for these people to seek the help that they so desperately need.
May I also add that while you say these people are degenerates, you're also helping perpetuate that behavior by promoting a gambling website in your signature.

It's not worth it for me. I would consider doing this if it was coming from a legacy bank, granted that everything is insured, but no freaking way I will trust any crypto related service to offer these products.
I think my main beeves would be that I'd be funding shorters and opening the way to some form of fractional reservism becoming more mainstream. Neither are my favourite things. It will be interesting to see what demographic does go for it. Yeah that would be my main issue with this too. You basically hand them control over your Bitcoins to do -whatever-. I do see the appeal for people who don't want to trade themselves, but I think there are better ways to increase your Bitcoin holdings, without having to actually trade yourself. |

Are you also planning on adding certain perks which players can purchase?
If that would be possible, it would greatly help you in adding some sustainable revenue streams, without having to rely on income purely from advertisements.
Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting to turn this into a full-on gambling experience, I'd keep the majority of gameplay features free.

You're talking about online presence by having a good and established website. But how about any individual who don't have a website though. Do you think it's possible to be earn as a affiliate? I don't know but I tried early and it's really difficult to get someone to sign under you and play on the site regularly so that you can earn passively. Although there are success stories I've read around 2017 here, but I don't know how those guy did it so for me it's not that easy to be a Bitcoin casino affiliate.
A website is a must for affiliate marketing. You need to write contents regularly to keep your visitors active in your website. You need to find a niche which you are interested. It's a long process so without having interest in the niche you will find it frustrating to carry on. When you start the website you don't just start pitching your affiliate links. Build up a community, build up reputation. Present yourself as someone who is capable of giving solutions and be honest with what you say. People will follow you. Once you will successfully build up a community then you can recommend whatever you want. You will know what they need. I don't know if a website is really a must. I've just been writing articles about gambling websites on my Steemit blog and have done quite well in terms of earnings. It helps if you have a large following though. |

Can't believe they missed the chance to call this upgrade Istanbul, now that would've been the perfect name  Jokes aside, I'm glad they issued this fairly quickly. Now I hope they don't find any other serious security issues. |

This already exists, you can set up a complete affiliate system with AffiliateWP and they have support for Bitcoin. https://affiliatewp.comFrom their website:  Problem solved Btw, literally took 5 seconds searching on Google to find this. |

Just a quick update.
So far there's been 860 dollars raised, with 28 left to go.
I personally would have expected a little bit more by now, especially considering how many people have been promoting this.

Utopian is a platform on the Steem blockchain which rewards various contributions to open-source projects. They do this by giving out high-value upvotes to articles with details of the contributions made to open-source projects. Contributions are curated by moderators and they get a certain score which determines the value of the upvote.  Current website: https://join.utopian.io/Now, the reason why I'm asking this is because they're currently running a crowdfunding campaign for building a completely new platform. They seem to want to create a more standalone platform, with more social features than are currently available on Steem. A large part of their back-end will still be running on the Steem blockchain, but with their (future) new platform, submissions will be much more visible and easier to filter through. Link to crowdfunding campaign: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/utopian-empowering-open-source-innovation/x/4464230#/What do you guys think of this? Is this something that will ultimately be of great benefit to the open-source ecosystem in general? Or is it a wasted effort? |

For those of you who don't know what Utopian is, they're a platform built on the Steem blockchain which incentivizes people to contribute to open-source projects. You basically write a blog post with the details of your contribution and they will give you a significant reward for it. Reward sizes depend on the curator's rating of your contribution. More info: https://join.utopian.io/Well, now they've launched an IndieGogo campaign to build a completely new platform called Utopian Colony. This platform has a lot more features than their previous implementation on the Steem blockchain. You will be able to build a profile and showcase your contributions. Utopian can then reward you for any work you put into open-source projects. Check out their IndieGogo campaign: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/utopian-empowering-open-source-innovation/x/4464230#/Or read my latest blog post on Steem |

Look, if I were that guy, I wouldn't regret buying that car, even if I paid 5000 Bitcoins for it.
Back in 2013, I also spent a couple of Bitcoins on stuff that's already broken by now, like a Samsung Galaxy S5.
I don't regret buying it, because I don't live in the past.
What a sad life you must live if you always have to think back on how you've missed out or whatever.

I'm looking for few passionate people, like me, with a solid track-record in security & hardware engineering.
Looking also for one/few investors to join forces and give life to the project.
Got any references to back that statement up? What exactly do you bring to the table and do you have a LinkedIn account to prove it? Also, what kind of guarantees will you be providing for your possible investors? 150 BTC isn't exactly a small amount and it seems as though you have very little to show at this point in time. No working prototype? |

Yeah you won't get an answer from them, they arguably have the worst support of any website I know.
I've contacted them before for minor issues, but never even got a response from them.
Heck, I wasn't even asking anything weird or anything, just if they could check something in my account.

Yeah sure, they should provide honest information, but as long as ICOs are largely unregulated this isn't going to happen any time soon.
Which is why I just stay away from ICOs in general.
Instead of trying to get money from the public, they should just look for private investors and start their project like any other company would.

Uhm, is anyone surprised that Charlie Sheen is in that list? That's the one person I would fulle expect to be a gambler I am a little bit surprised by Ashton Kutcher though. |

Thanks for sharing information about this service. Unfortunately, it's not available in my country... Do they accept Bitcoins directly, or they are just using one of payment proccessors like Bitpay like most similar services are doing?
Sadly they do not accept Bitcoins directly, but they use a payment processor like Bitpay. It's not perfect, but I'm already glad that they accept Bitcoin in the first place. |
