[All you have to do is pick the correct USD/BTC price!]

From the creators of BetMoose...

All you have to do is pick the correct USD/BTC price!



https://www.betmoose.com/picks/usdbtc

Weekly Round
Lots of time to follow the charts and do your analysis (or you can try your luck and pick at random!). Earlier picks win more.

Open-Source API
The results are pulled from an open-source, publicly-verifiable and trusted source. We post the data we use after each round for users to verify themselves.

Pot Grows Each Week
No winners this week? Pot carries over to next week! It keeps snowballing until someone wins. The longer we go with no winners, the larger the pot grows.

Use it alone - or with friends
The pot is there for the taking, regardless if anyone else is playing. Less players = more for you.

[20% revenue share for 1 year]

Today we're proud to announce our unique referral program:

20% revenue share for 1 year

Here's the unique part:

• See a list of which users you've referred, and how they're doing in terms of earning you revenue.
  
• The referral entry code places a 24hr-expiry cookie on the users, which means they can leave, come back, register, and still be associated to you.
• The code is a simple addition of a ?query that can be placed anywhere on the site. This means if you are one of our existing users and have your /hostedBets page, you can place it there and not only do you earn commissions from the bet payouts, but you'll take a cut from the referral as well.
• Anonymous bettors (those that don't sign up, but just place a few bets) still count!

To take advantage of this; head on over to BetMoose, create an account and go to your /balance page. You'll see a button there, click that and the rest is gravy.

Hopefully you'll find a few bets that interest you as well! If not, you can create your own!

This referral functionality will likely be limited to the first 1000 members or so, if you run a site with referral links, I encourage you to take up your spot.

Questions/discussion is very welcome.

[Average Price of Silk Road Coins to be Sold by USMS]

It's looking like the consensus is between the $580-640USD/BTC range for the selling price. The sample size is still small at 15 people, but I'm expecting this crowd-prediction to be correct.

(closes at 8pm tonight EST)

___________

Average Price of Silk Road Coins to be Sold by USMSOptions: Less than 520 | >=520, less than 580 | >=580, less than 640 | >=640, less than 700 | >=700

Edit: Now closed. Discussion still welcome.

[What Will The Next Powerball Number Be?]

Hey guys,

We have what I thought was a creative bet that lets you bet on the result of the June 25th lottery result in New York:

___________

What Will The Next Powerball Number Be?Options: 1-15 | 16-30 | 31-35

The more you bet, the more someone else will likely bet against you - and it's fully transparent what you'll win (since it's 100% P2P).

This is a limited time bet. The deadline is tomorrow. No registration required!

A thread caught my attention and really worried me about the community here; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=650311.0

I propose a solution; have an 'off-limits' board that is only available to members who sign a message with their bitcoin address proving they have 10 BTC or more.

This should create an exclusive yet very appealing sub-board to those of us who are actually affected by all this bitcoin stuff instead of just spammers/trolls/newbies who are trying to get a few bucks in cash.

In addition, you can add a 0.0001 BTC per post requirement (paid to the forum) which will keep out the sponsor/spam/shameless bumping.

Alternatively, we can make a whole separate forum for this though just in case this one gets attacked or goes down, we have a fall-back. I can do this if there's interest, PM me.

So it seems in the bitcoin world we have people betting on all kinds of things - from real world events, to 60 sec bitcoin prices, sports, to traditional casino games... even ponzi's are very popular (betting on that the next guy bets on it)

Is there anything else you'd like to see or bet on? How about betting on mining difficulty for each period, or does that exist?

Discuss.

https://www.betmoose.com

One of our key goals and something we've learned from previous bitcoin startups (and their faults) is to always maintain strong, open communication channels with the community. We know a lot of you are on this forum and in this space so we'd like to keep all of our problems here so that both fake (trolling, PR attacks) and real (maintenance, bugs, etc) can be transparent and documented. We still urge you to contact us directly at support@betmoose.com if you have urgent issues or would like to remain anonymous, but if you have general site support-related questions or accusations, please keep them in this thread.

This also means if you see people complaining about something somewhere else, they probably haven't even bothered to contact us if you do not see their reply in this thread.

Please add site feedback and suggestions into the official launch thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=645747

[Changing the Game]

BetMoose is the world's first "all-in-one" betting exchange and prediction market. It is social, feature-rich, flexible and distributed.
We do all kinds of bets, including what some call 'Proposition Betting', or 'Wagering'.
We don't like to be immediately associated with gambling though - BetMoose can also be used as a crowd-pooled futures contract exchange between multiple parties.

https://www.betmoose.com

Changing the Game
BetMoose allows anyone to place or create bets about anything. If you are a sports fan, you can bet with others on your favourite team, sport, playoff season ranking, etc. If you don't find the bet, you can make it yourself. If you're an alt-coin developer, why not create a contract about key deliverable dates and invite doubters/trolls to bet against you. If you deliver, they lose their shirt.

Hosts Earn Commissions
As a host (creator) of a bet, you get a commission from the bet payout. Commissions earned are 0.5% to 1% and are based on your reputation.

2-tiered resolution system
In order for hosts to make their commission, they need to resolve their bets. Site moderators are not allowed (and cannot) touch any bets that the host hasn't resolved yet. However, if a host does not resolve, or resolves incorrectly, moderators are allowed to step in. This ensures BetMoose creates an incentivized P2P system for resolving human-involved, 'real world' events and outcomes. It also prevents the '1 point of failure' trust issue seen in other oracle setups.

Secure, Reliable Platform
All bet deposits are held in cold storage. A proof-of-reserves automated checker/tool is coming soon. No unexpected downtime experienced yet in our operations since April 2014. We're running blazing-fast on Cloudflare's CDN with DDoS protection.

Truly Anonymous
Staying true to bitcoin, anonymous betting deposits from any bitcoin address are permitted, or you can sign up (free, only email required) to get added benefits. We also offer privacy-settings for our registered users who want the benefit of remaining anonymous while taking advantage of the benefits of having an account.

Join our Community
Once you sign up, you'll find yourself thrown into the middle of our growing community of friendly oracles who are constantly competing for the top spot of our Hall of Fame as well as making creative bets on random things that are crazy enough to be interesting.

No Nonsense
No fees on anything unless you win some positive amount. If you bet late, BetMoose auto-refunds it back to your specified address. Bets are also auto-cancelled and refunded in full if they go unmatched. In other words, it's free to enter into bets/predictions on things alone if you feel strongly about them! Bets with volume are much likely to attract additional attention.

Revenue Share Program for Referrals
We have a powerful referral program that gives you 20% of what we make from each user. You can refer users by simply adding your code behind any betmoose.com link, and track how everyone you invited is doing in generating you revenues.
