9841  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: I WAS TRY TO FIND ONLY ONE CRYPTOCOIN EXCHANGER NOT SCAM!!! on: July 23, 2018, 07:22:09 AM
Strange you can't find one. Every exchange I've ever tried before has all turned out to be OK. I mean sure, they ALL have their problems sooner or later, especially once they get too big too fast, but I haven't tried one that I researched and saw to be legitimate that has scammed me.

Tell us what coin you want to buy/sell, tell us how you want to deposit funds, and we can suggest. No details, no help.

Every gambling website is more luck than skill. Bustabit is about being lucky enough to cashout before it crashes on a certain number. PrimeDice is about being lucky enough to get below/above a number. SatoshiMines is about being lucky enough to not hit a mine.

Luck and skill aren't mutually exclusive. Both can exist. It's just about ratio of luck to skill. It's possible to be strategic in games like BustaBit, PrimeDice and SatoshiMines but at the end of the day they all depend on luck. That's gambling.

no not really , all the games and sites that you mentioned are purely luck and there is no skill involved
but you are tying to promote your site as a skill game but there is no skill at all not even 1% , it's a pure lottery and it's so wrong to say it's skill

Yeah, I think people mistake skill for strategy. You can have a strategy to ride out your luck, but in the end, you cannot beat a house edge, you cannot beat luck. Skill is having some control over the outcome. If you have a little bit of control, okay, you can say there is a skill based element but if nothing you do can influence outcome, then there is only luck.

Doesn't change anything I don't think so. You want to get paid in crypto, get paid in crypto. Let's see if any state can stop you. Legal is not something that makes it possible to happen. Legal just means there are finally grounds for the govt to tax you, for your crypto, and well okay, more centralized exchanges can open and take your business away from p2p.

Not being negative here but not praising Costa Rica for nothing.
9844  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE - 🎲🎲🎲 Treasure Chest Is Back! 🎰🎰🎰 on: July 22, 2018, 03:38:46 PM
Lots of Doge winnings today from user universeaaa, and then boom some guy comes in to plop 5.2 BTC on a x2 game. That's just $36,000++. Doesn't feel like martingale either, or we'd have seen the 2.6 and 1.3 BTC bets and so on... Strong hands of steel to be able to play that kind of money. Imagine if all these institutional gamblers (if there's such a thing) not only realized they could bet on Bitcoin but bet Bitcoin itself on dice?

Looks like the whales are coming out to play again now that $7k price range is back.
9845  Economy / Gambling / Re: Telegram Dice Gambling Bot (BTC/LTC/DOGE) on: July 22, 2018, 03:26:58 PM
Im not sure what can you offer players to gamble in telegram which is very difficult to navigate comparing to web based gambling sites that has colorful and lively pictures.

Actually what do you exactly need for gambling on dice? You want to get profit instead of wagering amount right? Then I can say telegram dice is one of the best choice because you do not need to rush and you can play everywhere when you feel like to. Of course this is no for big whalento play here, may be some micro and middle one going to play here. And if I not mistakrn they have pretty good max payout for their dice game, so if you think you want to play with low amount, it is the best way

Not really. A lot of us dice gamblers also stick to one site because of the wagering amounts it builds up for us. BitDice, Bitvest, Crypto-Games, they all give some kind of added advantage to loyal players. Some like the bigger faucets, some like the higher speeds, some like the extra rakeback, others just like to show off their levels. For me, I don't rely on the bonuses but when you're playing every day, even the 1% more you earn from bonuses adds up. 100 days is 100%.

So yes, that's something Telegram can never give out. In addition to so many other things. Like Provably Fair.
9846  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The golden rule of the investor! on: July 22, 2018, 09:52:01 AM
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news here, but all your 10 golden rules (or in fact only 4 of them that you cared to mention) forgot the one platinum rule to rule them all. In investment, never invest more than you can afford to lose.

Why? Because there's no such thing as guaranteed profit. In your system of rules, there is a guarantee of loss, but also a guarantee that 1 out of 10 coins makes XXX. This is absolutely rubbish. Look at so many trader portfolios, including the big hedge fund for cryptos. They're ALL in losses.

Platinum rule means be prepared to lose everything, because THAT is the reality.
9847  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Cryptocurrency is Great, But How Many Persons Know That? on: July 22, 2018, 09:39:37 AM
This doesn't have a perfect data, from the usage around the globe I believe around 25% of the people were aware about cryptocurrency. Among them around 5-10% continues using it, while the rest stays in fear as it is decentralized. Only the people who have profited as well known about the technology have the clear understanding that decentralization is the one that makes cryptocurrency perfect.

I don't know about 25% of people. I live in urban cities where people should know more about crypto than in urban areas. I live mostly and work with people who are highly technologically aware as well, but I wouldn't say 1 in 4 are aware of Bitcoin. Maybe 1 in 5 is closer. Because to me, simply hearing about Bitcoin is not being aware. It's like people hear about Jesus but they don't know what it is.

And if you go to rural areas, almost 100% don't know about it.

But anyway, this doesn't mean the numbers are not correct. All numbers are correct at different destinations and for different purposes. What is sure is that every new person who enters adulthood must by now hear about Bitcoin and more are encouraged to use it.
9848  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Spend bitcoin in FIAT - crypto debit card launched on: July 22, 2018, 08:30:50 AM
Yes, please tell us all the missing details as pointed out by Gaulois. We've seen the biggest services in the world have troubles with Bitcoin debit card, and it's quite strange to see someone like you just popping up out of nowhere offering this card.

In addition: which banking license are you using to get this card?
Can you show us a copy of that license so we know who we're dealing with?

Bitcoin debit cards are very highly demanded but there's been so much confusion that we're now very careful.
9849  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: wasted 3-4 months in bounty and at end got nothing ?? on: July 21, 2018, 04:12:51 PM
Look at it this way. Anyone who invested in altcoins 3 to 4 months ago would have lost perhaps up to 50 to 80% of their dollars values. That's probably something you wouldn't know because you played with bounties.

Of course, zero anything is the worst possible outcome and I'm sorry you had to learn this the hard way. Hopefully you still learnt useful things about blockchain technology along the way.

If you enjoyed this one and want to join the Premier League Pool don't forget to sign up here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4479837.0

Pot is around £600 I think now. Hopefully the value of bitcoin will rise during the tournament last year and give us some nice bonuses.

Thank you again for this. I just saw my casino account topped up with the prize money, but maybe I will keep it aside for the next pot of EPL contributions. Let us know when you're ready and I will make the contribution.

Great fun, and nice bonus to double my entrance fee. Makes me feel suddenly so professional haha.
9851  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin were more than 100K, how much you would buy? on: July 21, 2018, 08:54:17 AM
Price doesn't change what I will take. I don't buy any Bitcoin actually. I always earn, mostly in Ether at the moment but I exchange most of that to Bitcoin. So it doesn't really matter what price Bitcoin is at, I will always get as much as I can. I could always try to wait for dips, and sometimes I do, but on average I make more or less the same sometimes I get the dip sometimes waiting ends up making me buy at a higher price.
9852  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [NLG] The great Gulden thread on: July 21, 2018, 08:27:18 AM
I think we should give everyone a break here. Let them release 2.0 when it's perfectly certain from their side it is safe. I know the speed and delivery is always being criticized. Just look at Big Daddy Bitcoin and see all the complaints there. I've seen even worse with ICOs that raise millions and yet fail to meet roadmaps. Keep calm and keep witnessing. I like that.
9853  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: WT* is going on with alts ?? on: July 21, 2018, 07:57:25 AM
I think the reason is the ETF event in August. Most people will sell altcoin during this time to invest in Bitcoin. I think we should also invest in Bitcoin because Bitcoin is likely to increase to $ 10,000 by the end of this month.


Actually, this isn't such far off idea. Everyone's talking about people pouring money into Bitcoin ETF, but we forgot also that people might just be saying now, forget my alts, I'm gonna sell what I don't want anymore and keep it as Bitcoin. Not exactly a great idea I would say since alts are so low right now and they should just be given time to take back their losses.
9854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Professional Gamblers here in the forum on: July 20, 2018, 03:48:41 PM
While the idea is nice I haven't seen any big professional gambler out here, all I see newbies coming and posting tips and then they disappear, then there're some tipsters thread honestly never even opened them, I prefer to rely on my gut then what they post, why not keep the group here, you could open a self moderated thread and many could take advantage of it, not all will come to telegram just a suggestion.

Not all of them are newbies. I sometimes take the tips of Joca97 and BitcoinSupremo, but I think these are not professionals. Merely part timers or extreme hobbyists. I think I remember a few newbies try to open as well, but once they post losing streaks or they don't get enough people paying, then they also lose interest.

Someone should ask the forums of those sports professionals, like who has an account here. Tell them there's a big Bitcoin community who gambles here. Who knows what we might get?
9855  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bet in Asia - Bitcoin as a deposit method on: July 20, 2018, 09:40:14 AM
Yeah, not an auspicious start, almost two weeks since the introduction post, and we're doing more bumping than the OP. Shame that Bitcoin casinos start out like this but don't seem to have the steam to carry on. As asked above, before any of us even dare to deposit or play, we want to know the most important thing... do you force KYC on any level? From what I can see, you're not regulated (license doesn't count) so you actually don't have any grounds to ask for KYC. Can you confirm this?
9856  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Your Money Safer In Crypto than at the Bank? on: July 20, 2018, 09:06:33 AM
I think we've to be a bit practical here. If you're talking about savings you don't want to touch, then of course you're thinking of money you want protected, and if possible insured. Most government banks will do this, but then again, what happens when your government goes broke and can't keep its insurance promises? What happens when your fiat becomes useless and even countries like Argentina can't attract savings with high interest rates?

Practical: level out your risk. If you live in a strong economy, then save some. If you don't, save abroad or in another currency. And make Bitcoin one of your savings. Never everything in one, it's just silly.
9857  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves vs. Bitcoin on: July 20, 2018, 07:37:34 AM
I am a holder of both Bitcoin and Waves. In fact, I hold about 5 times as much BTC than Waves. Would love to hold much more of Waves, but until now I really love the idea of it and how it looks and feels, but as of yet, there is not a single Waves use that I've found for myself, so therefore, my expectations are still a little low.

Trading wise of Waves tokens, we've got Tidex and Waves DEX, but new centralized exchanges are coming up. That still won't give me what I'm looking for in Waves, but at least it'll get a bit more volume to test out its blockchain stress.
9858  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [NLG] The great Gulden thread on: July 20, 2018, 06:28:07 AM
Once Gulden a bus hits the "mainstream Gulden fuhrer" and the word is spread, there's no holding back Smiley

Buy before that happens and profit at least 50x, easily. Don't take my word for granted, just study about the coin, is pretty easy to come with this conclusion once it's freed from the dictatorship  Wink

It's a little sad to see so much dispute and conflict here, for a small user who doesn't make or spend much. But I guess the positive side of things is that no matter the outcome, good or bad, we can all see x50, mainstream, dictatorship or whatever!

Let's see what really happens after this pow2 update. My take is that we'll be disappointed. Nothing will move. But that's okay too.
9859  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: This correction on Altcoins is just EPIC! on: July 20, 2018, 05:40:58 AM
Every channel I go to says, Bitcoin is going to pump! So alts will pump harder, but yeah look at the top 10 now. Only Dash is the one green on my chart at 1.5% increase, same almost as Bitcoin. Everything else is 3 to 10% lower. They all climbed when Bitcoin first boomed, but now none of them can hold on to their gains. I'm seeing Monero and Litecoin that will not slip up so much, but ETH is a shocker to me. I thought it would at least cling on to 490.
9860  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: My bounty story (5.99eth) on: July 19, 2018, 05:28:56 PM
My curiosity is now this. How has OP fared in further bounty campaigns? ICOs were all successful when they started out. Bounties were big and April was still a declining price, not quite yet the murderous market that we still see today (yes slight recovery happening but then).

I see he is still on a signature campaign for another token and he has said not to hold and take losses at stops. So he must be holding ETH and not the tokens now. Hope to see him check in here for July and update.
