Edit: This has been resolved. It was just a misunderstanding. All the involved accounts have been unlocked. As far as I can see, Betcoin is legit.Order of events: 1. Majesty tells me about Betcoin.ag EV+ bonus 2. I deposit and start playing, and I win the bonus (while streaming in Discord) 3. Toni (chiefleaks) gets in on the action and hits the smaller bonus 4. I'm KYC suspended, so I complete KYC, and the bonus is credited to my account 5. I put in the withdrawal request after wagering 6. My account gets suspended and is now pending investigation At first, we were pissed off that our accounts got suspended, but it hit us a bit later - we had all withdrawn from the same casino's hot wallets (flashflip), so the transactions were obviously linked. We get the reply, highlighting this blockchain link. I reply explaining that it came from the same casino's hot wallet. Now I get an interesting reply from them... https://gyazo.com/37ec0648fe42dbb06ab36a78fc7d664bEssentially saying, they don't care where the funds came from: they claim I 'colluded' with the two 'against the other contest participants'. What? Where is the collusion? What terms were violated? From their email: "There was a limit set on the number of winners of this promo, due to the potential for many winners. It was designed to get people interested in the dice game, reward players and bring attention to Betcoin.ag.". This is exactly what happened: Majesty referred me & Toni, new players. It's not like we're random alts or anything. I'm a crypto gambling YouTuber with 1K subs, and Toni is a famous Instagram page owner with over 50K followers. Majesty and I both did KYC. We are obviously different people. So it makes no sense, it looks like Betcoin is finding a convenient excuse to scam 0.1 BTC. The terms we were accused of breaking: https://gyazo.com/3ae27ad727f9017255ec37e8a4703d7cI'd like to ask: where are the 'unfaithful winnings, arbitrage betting, or forking services'? And all of the deposits were funded from our own individual flashflip wallets. There is proof of all of this in Discord. Literally every message, every deposit and withdrawal log, all of it is saved. I asked Betcoin for specifics but they keep directing me to talk to their 'license provider'. My balance has been missing for several days now so I don't really have a choice but to go public. Hopefully they pay what's rightfully mine. Edit: Image of the balance being removed: https://gyazo.com/633d63f93f5db48c685b7800e6fe3976Edit 2: Brief video explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YfirlVlqDgEvery reason Betcoin provided has been debunked, yet they're still adamant on keeping the funds locked.

Hi all,
I have a question about competing blocks on the Bitcoin network. Let's say two miners find valid blocks at the same time, so half the nodes have accepted one block and half the nodes have accepted the other block. The blocks would mostly be the same, with a few subtle differences (a few transactions wouldn't be included in one of them).
When the subsequent block is mined on top of one of the previous two candidates, cementing the first one into the blockchain, what exactly happens to the missing transactions that were initially considered confirmed by half the nodes but may not necessarily be confirmed anymore? How exactly is this handled?
Thanks.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5310296.new#newUser 'Siigari' is taking BTC investments for a supposedly +EV script. The script runs on bustabit, which is a casino with a 1% house edge (hence all bets, including scripts, are inherently -EV). By taking investments under the premise that the script has a positive EV, Siigari is committing fraud.

I'm auctioning off this domain since I don't have use for it anymore. The bustabit/bustadice script market is booming at the moment with hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales.
You can use this domain to: 1. Create an aggregate script marketplace for users to buy and sell scripts 2. Sell your own bustabit/bustadice scripts in a unified platform and with a great name 3. Setup a competitor to bustabit with a focus on scripting (with Daniel's permission, of course) 4. ...Or anything else you can think of!
bustascript.com
Buy it now price: $450
Feel free to bid below, preferably in increments of $10.
The auction will end in 30 days (or earlier if I happen to need money urgently)
I am happy to use any middleman here who's sufficiently trusted (you pay the fee, if any)
Thank you!

I would like to preface this post by noting that Outbuilt does not currently have an account on this forum- this post is intended to be a warning for any current and future players of Bitcrash.cc, many of whom may be forum members. The fraudulent crash site is becoming an increasingly popular scam MO. The scammer will pirate bustabit v1 code or use the open-source version. They will then put up a rudimentary website with an inflated bankroll. If players deposit and lose, great! If a player wins, they will simply refuse to pay and will take down the site (since the bankroll is fake anyway). This is roughly what happened with this project, in my opinion. It's also important to note that the scammer Oubuilt isn't only a scammer- he is also extremely incompetent. This will reflect in much of what he says. Unlike the other scammers I've encountered, he has no idea what he's doing and is far out of his depth. Since I was there during the event, I have a pretty good idea of exactly what happened- however, it is fair to say that 'concrete' evidence does not exist for the latter half. Therefore, I shall structure this post in two sections- one containing purely objective facts, and the other containing what I think happened. You can review this and make the decision yourself. Objective facts- Outbuilt did not know that bustabit v1 had a forced cashout feature and thought it was a bug. As you may know, bustabit v1 code contains a feature where if a single player in the round hits the maximum profit, all other players in the round are cashed out as well. A whale on the site was making a max bet and was forcing the round to crash early (a feature of the site, not a bug). Initially, Outbuilt used this as proof that the player was 'hacking'.
- Bitcrash's maximum bet was incorrectly coded, indicating gross negligence. In fact, at one point, the maximum profit even went negative, showing just how much thought went into coding the website- close to zero.
- The moment a player began winning, Outbuilt panicked and took down the website. Outbuilt claimed that the player was hacking because at that point he had won a large sum of money (approximately 1 BTC), but winning that much by betting the maximum possible amount is extremely easy and doesn't indicate a hack at all.
- Outbuilt then began lying about the player and his statistics. For example, he claimed that the player started with 2 bits (which 'proved' he was hacking), when in fact, the player was down 0.3 BTC not too long ago. Funnily enough, Outbuilt also bragged about how the player was down just a few hours before he began winning.
- Outbuilt lied about not having user passwords. When I accused him of having access to the winning player's account, he claimed (over four times) that he would be unable to access any player's account. Yes, you read that right- he said he didn't have the passwords of users on his own website.
- Outbuilt lied about the source of the site's development. At first, he claimed that he was the site's sole developer, but a few hours down the road, he claimed that he 'hired' someone.
- After the incident, Outbuilt deleted all messages from the bustabit Discord chat and deleted his own Discord server. The website is still down and multiple players haven't received their withdrawals, including Elifeur who withdrew 0.125 BTC and the original big winner, Dajjal, who is presumed to have upwards of 1 BTC locked on the site.
Here's my opinion (ie. what I think happened)...If you are only interested in pure objective facts, feel free to disregard this entire section. The user who was winning (Dajjal) had been playing for a day or two, and was down quite a lot. He hadn't spoken much in the site chat, but when he did, it was in fragmented English. After Dajjal began winning, Outbuilt claimed he was hacking and proceeded to 'lock' his account. I was sure that Dajjal wasn't hacking, since Outbuilt's only evidence was 'he won a lot' and 'look at his graph'. FWIW, hitting a hundred 1.01x bets in a row is not improbable at all. I've personally done it multiple times. Now, after I explain why I think Dajjal wasn't hacking, 'Dajjal' comes back online and begans speaking in perfect English. He starts bragging about how he hacked the site and how he will withdraw more (even though his account is supposedly locked!) His English is suddenly good, and he even uses a very distinctive "xDDD" chat emote which Outbuilt frequently used in the Discord. Now, it's pretty obvious to me that Outbuilt locked the real Dajjal out of his account, logged into the account, and began spamming hax0r stuff in the chat. Of course, I call Outbuilt out for doing this. Now for my favourite part- Outbuilt claims that he has no access to user passwords on his own site and thus couldn't possibly be logged into Dajjal's account. This is a blatant (and provable) lie, since if a website doesn't have user passwords, then nobody would be able to login to said website. Of course, Outbuilt began making up a series of very amusing lies to cover up all of this. He was called out multiple times by several users in the community and most of what he said was proven to be false. In the end, he deleted all of his messages and deleted his entire Discord server. So, here's a short summary of what I think happened. Someone starts winning big on Bitcrash, and since Outbuilt doesn't have the funds to back it up, he chooses to lock the user's account and take it over. The real Dajjal has been scammed approximately 1 BTC. There are also a few other users who are yet to receive withdrawals. Instead of taking the L (like an honest casino owner would), Outbuilt decides to first try to desperately cover up his lies, and once exposed, he decides to pull the plug on the whole thing. In total, Outbuilt has scammed upwards of 1.125 BTC, has provably lied multiple times, and has displayed a scary (and frankly, pathetic) level of incompetence.From all of this, it is abundantly evident that Outbuilt is a scammer and Bitcrash.cc is a scam project. If he or his site ever happens to remerge, you all know what to do (or rather, what not to do). Outbuilt will likely be back with Bitcrash v2 (and/or a different site under a different name). Don't play that shit. Go to bustabit instead /endrant

A hacker breached my server and stole all the funds: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/1a62267aa812b8d289148192ff15cb2d6a1fccf40ce0e31278125191ff9d181bA very low fee was used. Just got back server access and am trying to cancel the transaction. Tried zapwallettxes and deleting the mempool, didn't work. If anyone has a solution that would be excellent. 39U2gKxvdL25WZgRwxg1Y1a5k3cv1U3uad is the address I would like the funds sent to. I am hoping someone from here can build a transaction for me to sign from the wallet and rebroadcast at a $5 fee since I don't know how to. Or, any other help or suggestion. I will pay 0.03 BTC from the recovered amount to whoever can help out.

https://moon3d.io/user/StackGodhttps://moon3d.io/user/StackGamblerTotal amount scammed: 4.094 ETH Scammer's bitcointalk profile: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2544188This scammer has been outed multiple times by members like RHavar and devans for other stuff... I've outed them before too, which led them to update the house edge on their site (falsely again), I don't want to go over that shit over and over, I'm ready to just block these scammers, take down the videos about these toxic people off my channel, ban them from my servers and get back to work on more important stuff. Moon3D hides historical stats and medians for their game... I've figured out why According to historical data, over any given range >10,000 games, 3.5% of all Moon3D games are 1x (aka instabust) While I played, the house edge was advertised as less than 1.5%, which is incorrect. It was later updated to the more accurate -3% < x < 3%. I played during the time where the house edge was misleadingly advertised, and as a result I lost money... Need it back now. Posting this after advice from a friend who is extremely knowledgeable in crypto games and said I obviously got scammed.

My friend works for a Discord gambling bot and we are considering adding a precredit system, where users can gamble with their balance even if their deposit does not have a confirmation.
We will not accept transactions that signal RBF, and there are a few other criteria. I'm wondering, is it entirely safe to accept non-RBF transactions that are in the highest fee band? Is it possible for the average bitcoin user to cancel or double spend a non-RBF transaction? Thank you.

Hello, I am currently running a full node on my desktop PC, and I would like to run another one on my laptop using a hard disk. Instead of resyncing Core on my laptop, can I just transfer the blockchain from the main PC to the hard disk and plug it into the laptop? Is that a safe way to do it, or should I resync the blockchain from scratch on the laptop? Thanks!

Hey guys, I've played a bit on Moon3D and I have some questions about the house edge and advertised odds.
The house edge of Moon3D is advertised as 1.5%, which means the median bust should be 1.985x (1.975x accounting for the social multiplier).
Let's examine bustabit, which has an advertised house edge of 1% and an expected median of 1.98x.
Median over last 1000 games: 1.98x (expected) Median over last 2000 games: 1.93x (below expected) Median over last 5000 games: 1.96x (below expected) Median over last 10000 games: 1.96x (below expected) Median over last 20000 games: 1.97x (below expected) Median over last 40000 games: 1.98x (expected) Median over last 100000 games: 1.98x (expected)
As you can see, above ~40,000 games or so, the median converges towards the expected median of 1.98x. We can presume that 40,000 is a fair number of games to backtest in order to view the expected median and eliminate variance. Obviously, the more you backtest, the more variance is eliminated, and the true median will approach the expected median asymptotically. If, beyond 100,000 games, the expected median is not the same as the true median, it's either that the odds are being advertised incorrectly, or that a 1 in several trillion event is unfolding before our eyes. Usually the former.
Now on Moon3D:
Expected median: 1.975x
Median over last 100,000 games: 1.94x
This suggests that the actual house edge is over 3% higher than what is advertised. To the Moon3D team, I'm just wondering why there's such a large discrepancy... hopefully someone can enlighten me. Thanks!
PS. Also there's the fact that bustabit allows for the median to be checked in the chat but as far as I can tell this feature is not available on Moon3D, and you need to download and run the code to do the same.

Something in my stats elective got me thinking about maths and gambling sites, and I decided to try out the expected value formula on bustabit data.
E(X) = ∑X * P(X)
Basically, the expected value for a set of data is the sum of each data point multiplied by the probability of its occurence. For example, if the odds of getting a 0 is 50% and the odds of getting a 1 is also 50%, your expected value would be (0*0.5)+(1*0.5) = 0.5, so it's sort of like a weighted average.
I took a table with all possible bust values on bustabit and their corresponding odds. The formula to calculate the odds of a bust is the absolute value of [(0.99/bust+0.01)-(0.99/bust)]. The odds of getting exactly 1x are 0.0198, exactly 1.1x are 0.00892, and so on. As per the formula for E(X), I multiplied each bust value with its corresponding probability and summed the total, which came out to over 2.3, even though the expected value is supposed to be 1.98. Can anyone tell me which part of this is wrong? Thanks

I have some small stickers that say "Hot Wallet" and "Cold Wallet". I bought them for my hardware wallets but I ordered wayyyy too many by mistake, and now I have hundreds. I'll sell each for $0.1 and you can buy as many as you want.
I'll have to check on postage fees but they should be under $2 worldwide and under $0.50 within Singapore. I'll take a mailing video. Registered mail will be a bit more, perhaps $3.
You can use these to label your Trezors and Ledgers. They're quite small and fit quite nicely.
Discord: Stack#9369 is where I respond the fastest, or you can post down below.

Hello, the following is a short summary of what has transpired regarding CrashingCrypto and my reports against them. The last few threads were moved to Investigations because they contained some person information. I am reposting this summary in order to warn the community, so that people who don't have a bitcointalk account will be made aware of the events that transpired. I encourage all bitcointalk members to read the full thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5118237.01. I won a large amount of Dogecoins on the site CrashDoge 2. In a conversation with the owner, I told him I was between 17 and 22 years old 3. The owner froze my funds and said I could only redeem them if I completed KYC. This was stated nowhere on the website during signup, and the website has never had a terms of conditions page. The owner also froze the accounts of all people who had been tipped by me, and wiped all their funds. 4. I agreed to do KYC, and the owner agreed to let me fly in to meet him in person. He later took back that agreement, and insisted on online verification. I agreed to do online KYC as long as he told me the process, but he refused to tell me the full KYC process. 5. The community sees this shitty behaviour and condemns the owner ("crashingcrypto") for scamming me and all these users, and he is red-tagged. This much is fact, and set in stone. Now let's get to the part where accusations come against me. I will try to be as unbiased as possible, but I encourage you guys to read doc-k's thread about me "scamming" here to get the full picture: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5126052.06. The dev of the site, a known scammer nicknamed NightWanderer, comes forward and states that he has given the game hashes to multiple people including me, insinuating that I somehow cheated. 7. The excuse of the CrashDoge owners shifts to me cheating instead of me being underage. 8. I agree that I did have a game hash, but I only saw it after the fact and did not actually use it. The community didn't believe me, and I was red-tagged for supposed cheating on the site. I did not cheat, but a few of the default trust members here don't believe me. That's alright, since it's not the question at hand. Regardless of whether I cheated or not, here are the facts you can discern from this. Fact #1: The owners of CrashingCrypto are frauds and will not pay out any big wins. Weeks before the cheating accusations came from NightWanderer, they had already pulled the KYC scam on me, before a credible reason actually came up. They were marked as scammers well before the site dev came forward with that information.Fact #2: I am not the only affected user. The accounts of all people tipped by me were wiped clean. If I tipped someone $1, and their balance was $1,000, their ENTIRE balance was wiped. There are four individual users who have been affected by this scam.The people who trust me and believe I did not cheat know that CrashingCrypto has scammed over 9,000,000 Dogecoins. For those who think I cheated, it is STILL a fact that CrashingCrypto scammed over 5,000,000 Dogecoins. I was in discussions with doc-k about resolving the matter, but he seems to have gone MIA, so I will continue with whatever action needs to be taken. This post just serves as a community reminder slash public notice of information that is currently hidden in view. Thank you for reading

I purchased a Casa Gold membership and with it came a free Trezor One. I don't need it since I have a bunch already. It retails at 69 EUR, I'll sell it for 59 EUR, you pay for shipping or pick it up from my place in Singapore. It's not worth it for you if you think shipping will be over 10 EUR, basically. I don't think it's worth buying unless you're in Asia. Not really sure. Anyway, it's brand new with the security seal and shrink wrap still on. Let me know.

Obviously, when you think of freedom, it usually comes with a positive connotation in the mind. Freedom is the lack of restrictions, and being able to do what you are economically incentivized to do.
Right now, the brick-and-mortar gambling world is heavily regulated. Monetary inflows and outflows are monitored, people are not let in without rigorous identity checks, expensive licenses need to be obtained from the government in order for a casino to set up shop, and so on. Clearly, the government is trying to control the world of gambling. It's their belief that we, as humans, are not able to decide for ourselves, and that our choices may have negative impacts that we did not forsee.
On one hand, this comes off as rather patronizing. It's our money and our life, and we should be able to do with it what we please. The manifestation of this idea is the realm of anonymous cryptocurrency gambling, where anybody can make an account, deposit bitcoins, and start gambling. There are usually no identity checks, no location checks, no age checks, or anything of that nature whatsoever. This is the worldview that devans, the owner of bustabit holds - he believes that we should give humans credit where credit is due. We are the smartest, most evolved organism on the planet, and we should be allowed to do what we want with our own money. We don't need a father figure in the form of the government to tell us what we can and can't do with our own funds. The financial freedom that bitcoin itself signifies is also signified by the existence of such anonymous, unregulated gambling institutions. Nobody is forcing anyone to gamble - it's all a matter of responsible choice.
However, on the other hand, gambling is not an activity that is as impactless as riding a bike or watching a movie. Gambling can have serious and profound effects on people. Their brains, their lives, their families. Gambling is addictive, and especially for children, it can cause a permanent change in one's brain chemistry. The way we process dopamine is changed dramatically once gambling comes into play: the baseline dopamine level rises higher and higher, until gamblers no longer find pleasure in normal things, and can only be happy whilst in the casino high-rolling. It's completely true that gambling is very dangerous in that manner, and the effects of gambling addiction strike not only the gambler, but his loved ones as well. There is merit in the argument that gambling should not be open and free - hell, maybe having heavily regulated casinos is actually a better option.
I'm curious as to what you guys think. Do you believe gambling should be open and free to all, and that we should be able to choose where and how to risk our money? Or, do you believe there should be regulations imposed on gamblers and gambling institutions for their own safety, and for the safety of their families?
