Pro-tip: use that 15BTC to get some treatment for gambling addiction. If you're spending more than you can stand to lose, it's a pretty obvious sign that you're addicted.
I can almost guarantee you that you'll just gamble that 15BTC anyway.
Worst advice ever! Why don't you suggest him to do something else with that money, 15 btc is a lot of money he can do something much better with them then to spend them on some treatments. If someone is not good in something its reasonable to assume that you will stop doing that, if you suck at dices don't play them. And if you are not skilled gambler who forced you to sit with 10000 dollars? You could try with 10- 50 dollars, and if you see its not going to quit on that. No one should commit suicide, especially for money. You will earn more and you will have happy moments, think more about your actions next time and everything will be fine. LOL, worst advice ever? He's talking about committing suicide over 10 BTC, sounds like he could really use some professional help! I'm not saying that he should spend the entire 15 BTC on getting some treatment, sorry if it sounded like that. I truly believe that it's practically impossible for an addict to stop gambling without any external help, like going in treatment for it. Send those bitcoins to someone who you can trust and use part of it for professional help. You will end up gambling away the rest of it most likely! Some people just don't have any empathy, he don't understand how it is to feel suicidal so he gives "advices" from his high horse and blames OP to make him feel worse. This is why the Internet is a bad place to look for help, and why professional help is better. He also makes ignorant statements about skill in dice games, which just solidifies the conclusion that his advice is wrong and harmful. |

I'd invest them into altcoins, casino bankrolls and even combination of both (there are casinos that accept investments in altcoins). I think making any unnecessary spendings with cryptocurrencies is a bad idea, because it's very likely that they will grow or even explode in future years. I'd rather double or triple my money over a few years instead of spending now and regretting about it later.

Wow, I am fucking pathetic. Playing Bitcoin Dice sites, I get my ass handed to me.
Over 3 days, I've been gambling on bitcoin websites. I won quite a bit. But I play very high stakes games. I tried to grow my bankroll and failed miserably. This martingale thing is like a fucking demon.
I only hold like 25 BTC, and I already lost 10 of them, in three fucking days.
Fuck my life and fuck me. How anyone could lose that much that soon is beyond me. I'm beyond hope and that's all there is to it.
I am the worst gambler in history, what reason is there for me to live?
Gambling is not meant for profit, and in your case it would be better to stay away from it for the rest of your life, because even if you'll just come to bet $5 you might lose control and start wagering recklessly again which will eventually lead to a big loss. Just move on, never look back, save your 15 BTC and watch how they grow safely. |

Ran into exactly the same problem today. My wallet refused to open with correct password, restoring password from wallet didn't work, restoring wallet from wallet words didn't work too. Downgraded 0.4.1 and opened my wallet with my password without any problems. I'm on Win 10.

Bitcoin can never be replaced by any cryptocurrency. Because bitcoin was the first crypto-currency that has been introduced to the world. Without bitcoin, I think there will be no any other crypto-currency or any altcoins to be ideally introduce right now.In my Opinion I think Bitcoin is the father of all altcoins, The first and the one and only pioneer of crytocurrency world.
Everything can be replaced, think about the evolution of money, first it was gold and silver, then paper, then credit cards. Bitcoin hasn't even started replacing fiat money, the amount of Bitcoin transactions is astronomically small compared to fiat. This only means that the future is unsure, Bitcoin might become big but then replaced by another cryptocurrency or maybe even entirely new form of money. People are generally bad about predicting future technologies, they are either too optimistic or too pessimistic about it. |

Sure,if you will good investment opportunity you will get profit,than some of that profit you can reinvest,profit is profit.Small profit=small risk,just dont pick up promises like invest 10$ you will get thousends,whatever money you invest invest them wisely
I agree. If you can only afford small investment at this time, then you should do. But remember that small investment also yield small returns. You just have to learn how to roll your small profit to make another profit out of it. So in no time your profit will run exponentially. So start small but aim big. This thread is about investing in BTC casino bankrolls, but people here just spam their comments about general investing. So, specifically with investing in BTC casino bankroll, you can't get exponential profit, you can expect 50-60% ROI at best. By making small investment like $10 you'll get only $6 in a year. The only thing that can help you to increase profit is leverage, but only few casinos support this option. |

I think shaming people for gambling is totally wrong, especially if it's seriously addicted gamblers who are being shamed. Usually it's people with depression and they need support, but shaming only makes them more depressed and disconnected, which leads to even more addiction and losses. Also there are people who gamble responsibly and just have a great time, so it's very unfair to call them addicts or crazy.

ive found, simply put, that if you put tiny bits/change in; you'll never win any amount. period.
the gambling sites operate like any high end store, if you don't look like you're going to purchase after some time, you'll be asked to leave.
i don't even bother with it unless i've a minimum of 0.1btc (or alt equiv) to put down.
have had moderate to great success with this methodology.
I'm sure this is not true, most sites are provably fair so the size of a bet doesn't matter. You probably just tend to remember big bets better than small ones. Or maybe you go all in with tiny bankroll and quickly bust, while with bigger deposits you play more carefully. Anyway, this is some sort of confirmation bias, it's very unlikely that gambling sites are cheating. |

Crypto games shows stats on how much they make per game and per coin. You'd have to factor in that part of those profits are paid out to investors, but it's easy to calculate. You can also check the invested amounts of the admins on the website, so you'll get an idea of what the owners earn. Here are the stats for the BTC dice game:  Inside "Bankroll" tab in "Invest" you can also get access to profit chart since the start for every coin. This is a very good tool for analyzing past performance of the casino. YOLOdice feature even more detailed graph with lots of additional analytics. See for yourself https://yolodice.com/#stats/investor |

So, as many of you probably know, there's currently some tension in Bitcoin community about possible fork, and it will have direct impact on casino investors, if the fork will happen. Everyone, who had control over private keys of adresses with BTC, will automatically become owner of coins on forked chain (BTU). What this means for investors is that casino operators will become the sole owners of BTU's that should belong to investors. So if you have suspicions that casino where you investing or plan to invest might refuse to release BTU, it's better to withdraw your investments before the fork, and than safely reinvest again.

When we can have both btc and BU co exist, why not treat BU like another Altcoin similar to btc?.
Why can't both compliment each other?
Because BU has a goal of replacing BTC asap, and since both will have the same blockchain history until the moment of forking, BU will be able to easily appeal to most of the Bitcoin users. Altcoins are usually distributed via mining starting early from genesis block or ICO, but BU will be different from any altcoin, in terms of distribution. So in some sense BU is an altcoin, and in some is not. Just look what happened with ETH and ETC and you'll get some idea of what can happen with Bitcoin and BU. |

Перед самим форком (если он будет), нужно обязательно вывести все битки с обменников, онлайн кошельков и других сервисов на свой кошелек, чтоб сразу иметь доступ к форкнутой версии биткойна. Когда ETC форкнулся от кефира, многие онлайн сервисы отказались отдавать ETC держателям ETH.
А я думаю ну его этот BTU! Мне кажется что лучше перевести все битки в баксы. Думаю после форка BTС и BTU стремительно рухнут и тогда уже можно будет откупить обратно с наваром. А еще можно рискнуть и перевести битки в ETH/DASH/Monero, они недавно скакнули в цене от одних только планов о форке  |

At least a month or so. I would invest in an established casino that's been around for a long time and put your money in for at least a couple of months before you consider withdrawal.
I've been already investing for almost a year in 3-4 different sites, in a month you can expect from 2% to 5% on average, having higher profit than that or a loss is not likely. This can only be applied to established casinos with big enough bankrolls to be stable. Also I started recently investing in YOLOdice, they allow up to 10x leverage on investments, which I'm using and currently finding it pretty good for relatively small investments. |

I think it's really hard to say how the market will react to ban, I'm only sure that short term effect will be devastating, you can see how the value was dropping because ETF rejection, outlawing Bitcoin by US, EU and other major countries would easily drop it by 100-300% or more. But after that Bitcoin will continue to grow, especially if there will be more instability in the world. A new worldwide economic crisis would make Bitcoin surge, as people will be looking for instruments to save their money.

I certainly agree with this, smoking and gambling has the same effect when you became addicted to it. And for every addiction there's always a solution and making yourself busy will be the only solution to forget that you are an addicted gambler. It's good to do it and lately you will find out that gambling addiction is a crazy thing when you realize your addiction.
Making yourself busy is not saving yourself from addiction. It is more like only hiding the impulse of the addiction for some time and when you got nothing else to do , you will start it again. To cure addiction, you must stop it completely and dont even try it again no matter what happen and for some people this is hard Finding hobbies, work and other activities to occupy yourself is essential in dealing with gambling addiction, in my opinion it's completely wrong to say that it's not working. People who have enough willpower to break addiction with a single resolution are such a minority and probably don't get addicted in the first place. But average people who struggle with addiction need all the help they can get, so any advice that can make it easier to deal with addiction is extremely valuable for them, but you just denied it and tell people to "deal with it". |

Any news?
Work in progress on all fronts.  Things we are working on at the moment are among others: - Internal Playtesting:
Last weekend I was meeting up with our game developer and we had some extensive playtesting sessions with our physical prototype. Playing has been lots of fun, we learned more about the game mechanics and had some interesting thoughts on further game mechanic implementations to make the gameplay even more fun.
- Development of Digital Prototype:
We are working hard on getting our Digital Prototype out asap to get into intense playtesting. We love feedback want a good variety of great playtesters for nurturing and harvesting a great amount of feedback that we can improve the overall game upon.
- Card & Character Planning & Creation:
As ever since the inception of this project, we are working hard on creating characters and cards that suit our lore and are epicly pleasant to look at.
- Securing Seed Round Funding:
I have been committing lots of time to reach out to angel investors and handle communication with them. We have several meetings with investors coming up and my aim is to further intensify and accelerate this process. The related FounderX program that we are participating in hands us weekly tasks that serve as an extra help and push in achieving our goals. Tomorrow we will have office hours with Adeo Ressi, the founder of fthe program.
- Scaling the Team:
We are constantly reaching out to new talent to get involved with us and have some very promising candidates to join our team. These include another game developer as well as a storyteller, concept designer and a web developer. We also scaled our team on the illustrative side and now have three amazing illustrators that we are looking to work with for getting amazing cards into your hands.
Let me know if you have more questions! Really nice to hear all that, sounds like a solid plan I've been following this project since the announcement, and as a hardcore fan of TCG's, it really interests me. If at some point you will be inviting more people for testing, I'd be glad to participate and leave my feedback. |

Ну что я тут могу сказать? Мои соболезнования переводчику темы - дырку от бублика теперь он получит. Однако следует заметить, что переводить то особо нечего было, но тем не менее. Соболезнования немного преждевременные, я получил оплату по факту выполнения работы  |

Drama is very common in any consensus process, one of the common examples is democracy - sometimes there's a lot of fighting between supporters and their candidates, but in the end people usually reach some agreement, it might be far from perfect, but should stop fighting for some time. This is the reason why people want consensus in the first place - to not feel like their interests have been ignored. So same with Bitcoin, - some miners are not happy with Core, they want Bitcoin to be different, and it's their right to think so, Bitcoin was designed to be decentralized in all senses - we don't have anyone to make regulations.
Some people are nervous, because it's bad for price, but consensus and decentralization is the reason why price reached $1200+ in the first place.
