7921  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why South Korea made this big step about banning Bitcoin? on: January 16, 2018, 04:13:19 PM
As the south Korean government made a big announcement about banning Bitcoin and other crypto,
All the market is down.How and why South korea do so,
What will be the next stage of bitcoin in future.
After watching this can other countries think the same thing to do so?
If so what will the future of crypto???

I'm sure it's not a ban, there's lot of media outlets that are trying to malign the image of Bitcoin. Korea has lot of people who're taking different stands. I have read there is a petition also signed by lakhs of people calling it a bad move. I feel it's a disastrous move by Korea, their entire economy might just crash, If the exchanges decided not to refund the people, I hope they make proper regulations soon.

Hi.

I often play online casinos, but it is pain always to use bank for money deposits and withdraws.


I started to research casino sites and found some articles about bitcoin casinos (for example - http://cryptland.com/best-bitcoin-casinos),
so I have a question - can I trust any of these casinos and does they really pay out Bitcoins. It would be much easier to deposit, withdraw Bitcoins for me.

If anybody has experience with Bitcoin casinos, please let me know.

Thanks

Well one good thing you have done is done your research that's what many people avoid, all they is flashy ads and they go for it. There are quite good casinos which are fair, and have really good track record of paying on time. One of them is my signature Bitdice excellent graphics, value for money, you should begin playing here. You can also play at primedice and chipmaker all three are very reputed casinos. You don't need to worry about them. Plus they're here on this forum for any help you can contact them.
7923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manchester City can go 38 games undefeated. on: January 15, 2018, 03:57:03 PM
I think it is possible, but I would not bet on it before 14.01.2018 when they play Liverpool in Liverpool

Very good timing, man. You will not bet on it before they fight Liverpool at Anfield and last night it was Manchester City defeated by Liverpool, it is certain you canceled to place a bet for it. Anyway, in this decade the possibility still exists but is too small, so small that it becomes impossible to do. Perhaps the unbeaten champions only happened to Arsenal just over a decade ago and will never happen again.
Yeah, nowadays it looks almost impossible to end season without defeats, especially in such league like EPL. Maybe it more possible for teams like Bayern or PSG, because there are less powerful opponents in their league. This season Barcelona in La Liga playing without losses so far, but I don't believe they can play in such shape all season long.
Also, I remember when Chelsea ended season only with 1 loss and 8 draws, reached EPL record with 95 points.

When I had created this topic I really didn't see any team coming close also to beat Mancity. They were scoring goals at random pace. Even with 1-1 score line they scored at 90 minutes on the clock, even yesterday when they scored the second goal I bet my friend that there'll be a goal in 90th minute so they scored. Yet sinking in that they lost so happy as a Manchester United fan
7924  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / This question puzzles me. on: January 15, 2018, 03:45:20 PM
I read today that 80% of bitcoins are mined already. If we assume 3 years max it all mined what happens then. Will it yet be tradable. Will people yet pay a premium to own it. Or it just becomes a collectible and you can sell it to highest bidder. What should we do move from bitcoins and go to alts? I have never been so puzzled so need your opinion
7925  Economy / Gambling / Re: Investing in btc casinos on: January 15, 2018, 10:15:53 AM
Hello!

I've got a few coins on the side and I'd like to make them work.
Which gambling site do you advise me to invest in the bankroll?
I think, you might be needing a lot of funds when investing on gambling site because they have minimum funds to be accepted and its kind a risky move because its all or nothing and win or lose situation. However , gambling is not an investment but a game where money counts and not just a number.

I'm bit confused by your above post because you said gambling investments are nothing but win or lose. But that is wrong because you're not gambling directly when you invest your money in these bankrolls. Your profit or losses will go very slow so after few weeks if you don't like then you can withdraw your funds for some losses and you will not lose all your funds unless if casino site closed down all of a sudden.



So if I'm understanding correctly I can invest 0.01 bankroll in a casino I do not need to bet and let this coins grow. They'll yet remain 0.01 + plus all the profits I get. Isn't this concept similar to a way of me loaning my money to the casino who's paying me interest over a period of time. I really don't understand what's different and why can't we just say there're taking a loan from us. If I'm wrong kindly someone correct me.
7926  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as payment system on: January 15, 2018, 10:08:51 AM
The answer to this question is yes and no. Japan for example has decided to give a freehand to bitcoin to run and make money for all. From their airplane to hotel every one loves Bitcoins there, however there is one very important which is bad for Bitcoin is the fees. So from a story I read on the net, a guy in Las Vegas tried to buy a 1$ Bitcoin lmao, but he couldn't because of the high fees, and that is the main worry, the high fees kills it. Unless it's resolved it can't be a major payment system.
7927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: January 15, 2018, 03:59:58 AM
I'm not surprised that Manchester City lost today, it was gonna happen sooner or later, what's surprising to me is that they conceded 4 goals, and 3 of them were in the span of 9 minutes. For a team that's been really solid defensively so far this season (13 goals conceded before today), 4 goals is a lot in just one game and it really caught me off guard (when was the last time Man City conceded so many goals?).
And great match from Liverpool, (especially Robertson, this guy was absolutely fantastic today), although those last few minutes , poor defensive but it was really exciting as a neutral.

On another note, Arsenal,  without Ozil, and possibly Alexis Sanchez, this team is just average and it's all thanks to Wenger.

I was quite surprised indeed, not for that they lost, it had to happen, but yup the goals conceived did shocked me. Didn't thought they would conceive goal of this amount in such a way. Though Manchester City tried there best at the end but Liverpool did put them in great pressure.
Manchester City didn't play well at all during the second half of the game and in spite of that, they managed to score two goals in the process. Had the third goal for Man City come in the 85th, i would not have been surprised if the match ended in a draw or City eventually winning the game.
yeah I was surprised with the 4 goals scored but I knew that City still can make a comeback despite their poor defending especially Stones he still cannot handle hight pressure but this loss does not diminish the value of Man City because they are still the at the top this lose shouldn't sabotage their chances to win the League it's possible that their biggest mistake was keeping Silva's survival in bench because he is the rhythm officer in the center of the city midfield Second, Liverpool were great from the start and put a lot of pressure on City's defense that carries the burden of the game, and we can say that Klopp is the coach of the week in the EPL.

I think city has started 2018 on a bad note and this could well be their decline. Liverpool have finally defeated city about time, they weren't that convincing to me anyway. To add salt to the wounds ManUTd are signing Sanchez that will frustrate city like anything. I really wish now ManUTd start winning it. Hopefully tomorrow they win it and then the league
7928  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Social Media Influence bitcoin growth? on: January 14, 2018, 04:15:14 PM
totally, even I knew of the cryptocurrencies through a social network (instagram) are influential in the world of cryptocurrencies, for that reason they promote by social networks with frequency.

Yes in today's world especially this few past months I have seen a huge rise in the number of ads on crypto currency and suddenly there are tons of groups that are talking about it. Coursera is now offering a subject in it. Apart from it, now it's all over on people status and instgram newsfeed. In a good way it's helping bitcoins grow.

If you got more referrals then it is fine but never try to play this hi-low game on this game because this site got a high house edge and you may lose more than what you're aiming at the end. But if you can manage to get active referrals then you can make some good passive income from this site.

Actually, if you count in all the free extras, reward points, lottery tickets and bonuses it cancels out the higher house edge. I'm doing pretty well with the hi-lo game.

Active referrals are obviously the risk free way to make on the site and I've been lucky enough that about 20 of mine are still going every day after 4 years!


I didn't understand how it will help you all those extra things in the hi-low game because site admin itself posted long back that he is making a profit from only this game on this site. That means whoever playing this game is losing and admin is making a profit to pay all those free things. When you know this fact already then why would you want to lose money on this game instead of play same game on another site where you got less house edge.

Personally for me the Hi lo game is just for fun sakes like whenever I'm literally bored and I don't really care much about winning cause I'll be playing with one or two satoshi. However to clear the record people will always loose, I did win a huge handsome had when I had placed 75k satoshi I won a huge amount so people do win but it's more for fun then anything else
7930  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin banned on: January 14, 2018, 04:28:54 AM
indonesian goverment banned bitcoin, affect the bitcoin price of the world ?

Didn't even know Indonesia people were into bitcoins till you put up this post. From what I know their market share should be insignificant so I would care less for it. Then again people can always buy and sell in other countries how'll the stop that. My point is you can't ban bitcoins cause you just can't stop it. So don't read much into the news.
7931  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: January 13, 2018, 11:22:57 AM
Hazard will be an ideal replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo when the Portuguese does eventually leave the club but he has to become even more selfish so that he can attain to the level that Ronaldo currently have. A summer move is definitely going to happen next year.
indeed there was a rumour Hazard want to leave Chelsea this winter but i still figure out which team will get him if this rumour become reality but the fans of Chelsea hoping Conte could maintain him because in my view during in Chelsea Hazard was playing well almost every matches


I think Hazard will only join Real Madrid if he decides to leave London. I think Hazard's playing style is perfect for Real Madrid and real madrid really likes players like Hazard. So I can say that Hazard and Real Madrid already have a match. They can be mutually beneficial.
Leaving London for playing Real Madrid will be not a big issue for Hazard if he will get the offer from Real Madrid because Real Madrid is one of the biggest club in football’s history and every player in football dreams to play in it due to its fame and money.

No doubt that Hazard way of playing matches the criteria of Real Madrid but they are having no space on their front-line with world’s best attackers.

I feel if Real Madrid really wishes to compete you need to have Hazard and Kane that would be massive transfers and next year get Neymar this three shall be more devastating than Ronaldo, Bale, benzema were, all three really are non performers this season. Though the most sensational news is Messi can be a free agent, imagine the number of clubs that would love to have Messi, boy I would want him at Manchester United. You'll think this could happen.
I want to tell you one thing regarding the transfers of players in different clubs. When the club wants to make a transfer, it has to keep every single thing regarding that player in view because different players perform differently at different places.

Don’t make a focus on this season only and I agree with you that in this season, Real’s attacker have didn’t shown interest but even then they got more trophies than Barca this year.
I also agree with you my friend. Players transfer in football is very special thing because players make histories in different countries and for different clubs and every club wants to come first on the leader board as it is considered as the real success of that club.

We have many examples of players who play good in one country but not perform the same in other countries after transfers. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the best example.

What really surprises me is they're retaining Zidane how in the world has that happened, normally a Madrid coach doesn't perform the coach gets the sack here Zidane has not got the sack. Plus they're not signing any good players this window also, if they're smart they would have got Ozil back, that was a huge mistake on their path anyway. I don't really think hazard is quality look at the second season of mourinho he flopped, so I think Madrid should really think it through they want him.
7932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: January 13, 2018, 09:37:30 AM
2nd test b/w South Africa vs India, this is an important match for India to save this series. If they lose this game, i think it will affect on there test ranking. Let 's see they will bounce back or they will repeat the history.

3rd ODI b/w NZ vs Pakistan, This is also an important game for Pakistan if they lose this game they are going to lose series too. NZ is leading this series by 2-0.

After losing the first game against South Africa, India's captain is taking some steps and changing the playing XI tomorrow. Also maybe the opener can get changed by some other. The 2nd test is the deciding test either way, to win or to survive the test series. Previous test was too one sided, as a cricket lover didn't enjoyed it, expecting some thrill in the 2nd one.

NZ vs Pakistan, mostly NZ is going to win and claim the ODI series. I am not underestimating Pakistan but as per there previous and recent games, I feel they are lacking some good performance and thus making them an easy prey for New Zealand. Personally I have a soft corner or follower mindset for New Zealand, so I would love to see them win  Grin Cheesy

South Africa winning record is very good on this ground so it will be tough for India to win the match and even they have dropped Pandya who played good batting in first test and picked Rahane hope that he play well and support in winning the 2nd test for India.

Yes Africa have a very good record but what surprises me is there was no grass on the pitch, I'm bit puzzled. Also you're mistaken Pandya is playing. Again Rahane has been punished, bhuvneshwar picks decent wicket and left out, bit harsh on him. I won't rate the team selection really good. Given Africa record I'll make a call on Africa to win it. Unless Indian batsman can really make it count it's a loss for India.
7933  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin "Mainstream" yet? The poll. on: January 12, 2018, 11:35:32 AM

Simple poll. Question as in topic.

No time limit. Vote changing allowed.

Self-moderated just in case, but I don't intend to use it.



Things to consider:

Brand recognition - you can hardly find anyone who has never heard about Bitcoin. They sure as hell don't know how it works, but they heard about it.

Omnipresent mainstream media coverage - countless number of press hits and mentions, all the financial 'gurus' have talked about it. No one is surprised by this anymore.

Years ago most would define 'mainstream' as widespread merchant adoption, but maybe it just wasn't meant to be...

Vote. Discuss.

Hell ya it is, all the leading media publications now daily publish either it's news or its price's on a daily basis. Our favorite Jamie has to come and say sorry to us for calling it a fraud and then admit it's not a fraud. The father of valuation Buffet has to come out in the open and take a stand against it, I can't blame him, a lot of investment banker's would have been pissed had he taken a positive stand, that all I feel Bitcoins is already mainstream and those who miss out, we'll they just miss out.

This was a very old dice site i used to play years..

Today i played there and deposited 0.048 . After winning i requested a withdrawal and my account was blocked and i was no longer able to sign in

I dont know who owns this site but if anybody could help me reach the admin of this site i will forever be grateful to you.

No proof of what i am saying cause i can't eve log in. All i have is my deposit tx : 82f832a3ece1caa1a7e98cfc66c814456b7f7ae7e622165d28fe03b065d74a09

Thanx for the help

That site is a scam site and as Darkstar clearly pointed out its make no sense to continue using the site, now as for your lost money, we'll you could try opening a scam accusations thread if you get lucky you'll get paid, but I doubt only since they're not responding, you can leave a negative feedback for them so other's may avoid them. Why don't you play on reputed sites like PD, Bitdice, Chilmaker etc? If you had you would not have lost your money.
7935  Economy / Gambling / Re: When a Gambler/Player Dies on: January 12, 2018, 09:52:57 AM
I have been thinking of a question but have not got a suitable answer, in case a gambler or player who has big money in his account dies, what happens to his money? If the family eventually get to know he has money in that gambling account, how will they claim it if they dont have a password to the account or email? Does the owner of gambling site have a way of handling that or is it a free money for them to claim? Your response please.
I am referring to gambling sites like: bitsler, primedice, freebitco, cryptogames, etc

How will the family find out he had lot of money? Let's assume he told them, or in second case they found out his password. I don't think that any of the site you mentioned will release fund's for anyone based on the user name of the deceased person, this way anyone would approach the site's. If they had the password why would they need site's permission. So I feel it's best to understand that it's lost, unless they can recover the password, as none of the gambling site's ask for identity proof. I feel it's lost forever, also shift this topic to gambling discussion for a more discussion.
7936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which coin do you think is best for gambling? on: January 12, 2018, 08:31:40 AM
I personally prefer dogecoin and ethereum but these days ethereum also have network congestion and fee is really high so dogecoin is best right now.

Raiblocks is another coin that have no confirmation time and zero fee and I think it will be accepted in some casino soon because nobody wants to wait for hours to get confirmation and pay high fees just to move coins in and out of the casino.

What other coins you guys think can be viable option for crypto based casinos?



Normally I was playing with bitcoins for quiet a while, even with fees increasing, my logic was if I win I yet win huge in Bitcoins, but with the fees touching the moon I decided to shift to btc cash it's important to know here I feel that the fees makes it really easy to trade into it, I really like the fact the fees was very low and that's really one of the reason I would take a bet on this coin, then again it value rises, personally don't really liked dodge so I won't ever play with dodge.

Wow.. it is incredible the amount of people that are really saying that bitcoin is "dead" only because it started to drop a little, came on guys, do not be so blind...

The price is slowly recovering at the moment, and seriously, i can not understand why you all are complaining right now, everything is fine.


This are the type of people who kept shouting the world is coming to an end in 2012, and every year they'll keep on saying it's coming to an end but it doesn't, these are hypocrites and jealous people, I don't even bother to read about them. One should always remember Bitcoin go down and they bounce up at a awesome rate, normally during year start, they're always slow, but they'll rise as the year moves on so hodl them

Guys I'm working something, which I will definitely share with the community soon.

I've a very simple question to all traders and Bitcoin enthusiasts.

Would you be interested in taking part in a lottery where you can win 100 Bitcoins by investing 0.01 BTC?

Basic rules are as follows: Participation cost  0.01 BTC, 15,000 participants.. 1 winner gets 100 Bitcoins, 20 Runner up winners get 2 Bitcoins each.

I'm working on a similar concept - wanted some thoughts from you folks before I take it any further..

So will you invest 0.01 BTC to win 100 BTC? Yes or No and why...





I'm going to take a neutral stand, unless this all are clarified. What's the site name that will handle it. What method will you use, and please don't say random generator. There has to be a good script for this. No one will do it, unless the fund's aren't escrowed, who'll pay the escrow fee, and 15000 people that makes it a scam, I would recommend 150 people and reduce. You'll need a legendary member backing you. Till then neither do I say a yes or no.
7939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 11, 2018, 12:57:30 PM
I am still waiting on the supposed Lucas Moura move from PSG to Manchester United, Even though he is not currently having playing time at PSG there is no doubt that he is a very talented player and he will be a very good addition to the squad.

Yes same here I'm looking forward to having him, he's one of the best player and given regular playing time, he'll kill the premier league. His past record speaks for himself and I'm sure he'll do really good. Another addition I want to see is Ozil and Fabinho that'll make Manchester United great again. I think we need three player's and get back pereira.

What are risks and benefits of starting a Coinbase account?

My first Bitcoin account was a coinbase.com, so it's easy and simple to use. Automatic fee calculator, has graphs inbuilt so it's simple. There are email alerts for you. Can be used from browser so makes its convenient. Now the cons it's a exchange, means you don't control your seed and private key. They can shut you down for maintenance, they can close down and disappear and you won't be able to do shit. So turn to electrum only no other wallet except paper wallet or Trevor is good.
