I'd like to see Bitcoin gambling focusing more on promotion outside of cryptocurrency-related spaces. Yes, it makes sense to promote your casino amongst crypto enthusiasts, since they are very likely to hold coins, which they can deposit and play, but in my opinion crypto space became very saturated with gambling marketing and promotions - countless signature campaigns, tweets, blog articles, banners, etc. Everyone who is interested in cryptocurrencies has already been exposed to advertising of gambling sites, so those sites should move forward and start promoting themselves amongst general gambling public, and explain to fiat gamblers why BTC is more beneficial for them than fiat money.

Here's my question for YOLO admins:

Today there's a lot of tension around possible Bitcoin fork and many exchanges are already preparing for it. How will YOLO react to his? Will you release forked coins to people who have Bitcoin balance on YOLO at the moment of the fork? There was a similar situation with ETH and ETC and some casinos released ETC to ETH holders.

Thanks!

Playing with faucet is technically giving you 100% - HE profit on your bets, and since it's a faucet money, you are guaranteed to have a profit, because you don't risk your own money. However, the faucet amount is very small, with 1000 satoshi per claim and daily limits it's just a bad captcha job, and there are better ways of making money for people without any special skills. I believe that the main purpose of faucet in casino is to make just a few bets when you are bored but don't want to make a deposit.

First, having no competition is really bad for any project, since competition drives progress. Without it devs could relax and take years before implementing new features or even not think about them at all. But thanks to alternative currencies there is a pressure to work faster and better on development of Bitcoin. In my opinion right now Dash, Monero and Ethereum are the only altcoins that can compete directly with Bitcoin, and though they are far from taking #1 spot, they all have a lot of value and innovation, so if Bitcoin will take the wrong turn on its development, we might have one of those coins as the main cryptocurrency within next 2-3 years.

Investing in proven businesses like gambling sites bankroll is still worth it, BTC price increase only means that we can/should invest less to reduce the loss in case of exit scam or other unfortunate event. As for altcoins, coins like DASH, Ethereum and monero showed huge performance over last week, they are strong competitors to Bitcoin, and in my opinion it is only wise to diversify one's cryptocurrency investment, in case one of the coins will fail. But of course it's better to stay away from fresh coins with devs who only make promises and don't have anything to show at the moment.

My favorite thing about Bitcoin is that it is global. As long as there is Internet connection, Bitcoin can be exchanged between any two points in the world. On practice it means that people who previously couldn't do any transfers, because of limitations of their banks and payment systems, or even complete lack of those, now can do business freely. I hope that in the near future Bitcoin will become significant driving force behind the new growth of global economy.

It's easy to deduce that hacking a casino is close to impossible, there's a huge number of bitcoin casino sites, each owns from dozens to thousands bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies, together worth hundreds of thousands and millions worth of USD. With that in mind, we only saw a few hacks, and lets not forget that any owner of bitcoin business can potentially steal all user's funds and call it a hack. I believe that hundreds of hackers every day search for vulnerabilities in bitcoin sites, yet they do not succeed, because those sites are relatively simple, so there's less chances for any weaknesses to exist.

And this is why I'm gradually divesting my funds from all the casinos I have investments in, so my investments stay the same in USD value. It's really hard to entrust millions of dollars worth of coins to someone anonymous on the Internet, even if they have years of good history behind them. This really hurts development of blockchain economy, and it will require governments to change their position on cryptocurrencies in order to make any changes, because now it seems to be nearly impossible to do any business with cryptocurrencies and not be anonymous.

Gambling makes people feel excitement and thrill because they risk something valuable to them. If money is not the problem than gambling stops making any sense, for example no one would want to gamble with some imaginary points or worthless tokens. So when you are extremely rich, betting $100 or $1000 is the same as betting one penny for regular people, it's boring. In that situation you can only increase the stakes and gamble millions of dollars to feel excitement again.

Trading is not easy by any means, It's a zero sum game, meaning that some people have to lose in order for others to win. You say that you just need knowledge, but everyone has access to the same information and everyone make their moves basing on some analysis. There's no 100% certainty or predictability in trading. Even the best traders still suffer loses on a significant amount of their positions, so it's even worse for newbies, who usually are the losers that ensure profit of more experienced traders.

Lotteries are pretty horrible for profit, there's just one in millions chance to win, so even if you buy a ticket every day for your whole life, it's still more likely that you won't win. Lotteries attract people with a promise of winning huge amounts of money by betting just $1, but everyone forgets about chances. That's why Bitcoin dice sites are so popular, players can make bets with any multiplier they want - be it very high with small chances to win, or very small with big chances to win.

Not everyone has the goal of getting rich when it comes to making money, some people want to at least make a living or just have a small side income. And Bitcoin can be quite good for the last two purposes, there are many easy methods, like signature campaign, twitter, bounties, there are some risky ways, like trading or investing, or some methods that require more effort, like building a bitcoin business or doing some jobs. Bitcoin was designed to serve as money, and although many people look at it only as investment, there are plenty of those who actually use it as money and earn it with their work.

How do you plan to fund the bankroll of Gambleo? I see that part of those 130 BTC is going to go for payouts, is that all? <130 BTC is kinda small for the bankroll funding, it will work at start, but as casino will be growing, you will need more and more. Do you plan to accept investments from users like most other casinos do?

What about other currencies? How do you plan to fund bankrolls for Gambleo and all the other altcoins mentioned in ANN post?

Девы и майнеры сливают на биржи, кто-то пампает, потом совсем сливают. Горячая картошка - кто последний тот и лох 

Но есть еще разные вариации - иногда сливают не сразу, а еще имитируют разработку некоторое время, пампают вторично и т.д.

Если умело трейдить, то можно получать профит даже с откровенных скамов, но это очень рисково.

А еще можно потратить 5 минут на баунти и слить на пампе с халявным профитом 

Я уже с таким сталкивался, некоторые девы любят заглядывать в переведенные топики, используя гугл-транслейт для чтения и написания постов.

Судя по истории сообщений, дев из Китая, хотя не нужно исключать вариант купленного аккаунта, как это бывает с ICO.


Я так понимаю, что здесь имелся в виду пересмотр целевой суммы ICO - теперь это 130 битков на разработку, а не 40. Наверное, дев включает в эту сумму и банкролл будущего казино.

What time? You spend like half a minute to make an investment, I can hardly call it a waste. Maybe someone wants to make a tiny investment for a very long term, like a year or two and see how it will go. Don't forget that YOLO is one of the few dice sites that allow you to leverage your investment, so you can make your 0.005 BTC work as if it were 0.05 BTC, which can yield a better return in a long term. Also, people usually invest in many different places, and making a minimum investment in as much casinos as possible might be just another investment strategy.

The reason for why we see so much gambling activities involving bitcoin and altcoins is because they just surpassed all the regulations installed by governments in gambling industry. In the world of fiat gambling you will need a lot of permissions from officials to open a casino, be it real or online, also you will need to present documents as a player. Everything is very regulated and taxed, which leads to increase of expenses for both casino and players and just create a lot of obstacles. Bitcoin casinos made everything really simple for players, you just buy btc, deposit it and start playing. From the player side it's better to play in bitcoin casino, because it's easier, the house edge is much lower but you will lose some protection - there are cases when bitcoin casinos refused to pay its winners and there's no regulators to force them to.

Apples to oranges. Banks and fiat money are a huge part of governments power over people, giving up this kind of power would mean suicide for the government. The postal system is nothing compared to monetary system - one of the pillars of the government. And the internet actually opened new possibilities for surveillance, much deeper than tracking of letters. There is too many organized opposition against Bitcoin, and the number of true supporters is very small. If you look at the posts on this forum, everyone say "save your bitcoins", yet no one tells to use it as money.

There will always be desperate people trying to get coins by whatever means available to them. Bitcoin became a very popular method to make money on the internet in third world countries - signature campaigns, faucets, bounties, etc. - everything is very accessible to people without any particular skills. A few months ago I personally witnessed a discussion on a forum about casino games, where people abused a casino faucet with multiple accounts per person to earn 0.001-0.01 BTC per day.
