6  Economy / Service Discussion / BitHorse.Co, Proveable fair and transparentVirtual Horse Gambling. How Fair? on: April 16, 2015, 07:16:39 PM
BitHorse! the first Bitcoin based Virtual Horse racing game !
Bet on your favourite horse and watch her race to the finish line!



Hello and good day to you all,

We have been re-developing bithorse.co from scratch. We are introducing a new fair, provable and transparent virtual horse racing gambling system. Here we hope we will get the attraction and opinions about the technical aspect of how fair it is. So to describe the round generation, here are the steps we use:

General Information:
- A round happens every ten minutes.
- There are 5 horses

Flow:
1- Generating a random RSA pair and publishing the public key
2- Announce the starting of the round (timestamp == now())
3- At the end of the round fetch the following:
             - Last litecoin block generated (Timestamp, BlockNumber and BlockHash)
4- Sign the block hash with the round private key, the one that corresponds to the public key announced at the beginning
of the round.
5- Generate this JSON array with the round information:
                    $round_array {
            "round_timestamp": $timestamp,
            "round_publickey": $publickey,
            "litecoin_block": $round_block_number_match,
            "litecoin_block_timestamp": $round_block_timestamp_match,
            "litecoin_block_hash": $round_block_hash_match,
            "litecoin_block_hash_signature": $round_signature,
            "bets_detail": {[{[id_bet:xx],[user_id:xx],[satoshiamount:xx],[round_id:xx],[timestamp:xx]}]}, {[{[id_bet:xx],[user_id:xx],[satoshiamount:xx],[round_id:xx],[timestamp:xx]}]}      

*JSON above is not formatted well, it is just to give the main idea.

6- Calculate SHA256Sum for the JSON array, five times, one per horse.
7- Assign each hash to the horses respectfully; 1,2,3, etc.
8- Sort them according to this compare function:

function cmp_result($a, $b)
{
    if (intval(substr($a['hash'], 32, 5)) == intval(substr($b['hash'], 32, 5))) {
        return 0;
    }
    return (intval(substr($a['hash'], 32, 5)) < intval(substr($b['hash'], 32, 5))) ? -1 : 1;
}

*Basically compare the hashes from the 32rd byte -> 37th byte.

9- The final sorted array of hashes determines who is the first, second, third, fourth and last horse to win.

We will add more info and examples and we are still in beta, The final release will include buttons on page to download such information for personal re-verification of results. Please share your opinions about how fair and random this method is. And if we can improve its fairness. Thank you for reading and good day

8  Economy / Auctions / [AUCTIOM] Steam Account with 15 games and a level 80 DoTA 2 Account with items on: March 30, 2015, 06:38:38 AM
Hello guys,

Straight to the point I am broke and I am selling my steam account. Here are the list of games:





This account has a nice DoTA2 profile:





This profile got some nice, NICE items:





This is an auction for 72 hours so it ends on the 2nd of April, 2015, 07:00:00 AM bitcointalk.org time.


You either trust me or you handle the escrow fees. A "Well established known" escrow member of your choice.

One last rule. I am doing this because I need a specific amount to pay bills and some debts. If this does not get enough attention and posts in the next two days I am going to cancel the auction. I am really really not greedy on this so don't expect me to cancel it with what would be a "good amount", So don't worry. Also consider your offer a charity, a donation, which is not free, but it is for a good cause. thank you for reading. Let the bidding begins.

This thread is a living proof that the ties between the people in this community and the good will of people are still there and strong. this is really inviting a mention of:

FAITH IN HUMANITY RESTORED
[/b]


original post:

Dear Friends and acquaintances, Awesome people that dealt with me and worked with me in the Past. This is a donation begging PM. Please don't ignore it for it is a life or death request. I am also paying you guys back hopefully in the next few days. Please give me the courtesy of reading my story. thank you

Friends and fellow humans. Life is an up and down tide and right now I am at the bottom of the ocean. Instead of wasting your precious time with past details I will just explain my current situation and directly beg for money, yes it is this bad! Currently I have in my possession the equivalent of $20 in cash, My cellphone, two laptops and a netbook and much more gadgets, Also a warehouse so full of what remained of a my restaurant that I recently closed. that's all. My wife got stuck in Cebu city (middle of transient flight, missed the flight) with no money, no phone, after almost two days of no eating and no sleep she managed to literally beg for to just use facebook for minutes to contact me. I sent her enough for a meal and a modest stay place through a western union like local service, hence I have only $20 left.

My wife is diabetic type 2 with a heart condition and currently very sick. She has been puking blood all day. They will kick her out of the place she is staying by noon. She barely have money for breakfast and I don't know if she will even have the energy to even eat, I don't even know if she will go to comma because of the low sugar tonight.

My friends and acquaintances. I write this to you at midnight with a prayer for a response before it is too late. I have to take a flight by early morning just to reach her on time before it is too late and I tried everyone that I know! Some wants to help but it will be too late by the time the money arrives (3 business days bullshit). I can sell any of my gadgets for a fraction of the price and do this but the shops that buys them wont open until 10AM! it would be too late by that time and there is no way to reach her. She doesn't even remember phone numbers to borrow a phone and call.

All I am trying to do fellow humans is to raise in the next 6 hours enough for the airline ticket from Puerto Princesa city to Cebu city (both in the phillipines) with hopefully a little more for subsistence of just a day or two. Just to sell a few gadgets and some restaurant stuff (Fridges and etc.) The ticket price ranges from $100 to $250 depending on the time. I would really appreciate if I can get the 6AM flight. It costs about $250. Please if you want to confirm check their websites here and here

(yes I am in a pinch now but I intent on paying you back ASAP)

If you want to donate or lend me Bitcoins (I can turn it to instant cash in the phillipines -courtsey of coins.PH- ) Please use this address:

If you do not want to believe my story but you really want to help if it was true you can also directly just get me the ticket from either Cebu Pacific Airlines or Phillipines airline (the only available and only a couple of morning flights there) and just register it to my information above. thank you so much!! From Puero Princesa City to Cebu City.


Fellow humans I beg of you. I wish you were here so I can give you everything as collateral I am prepared to give whatever proof or whatever details requested to back my story. I just need this very little amount for this very very bad situation.  beg of you my wife could really die of  diabetes complications. She also got a heart condition and currently... puking blood in large amounts. In Cebu city I will sell one of the laptops and maybe a couple of hard drives and pay you all back and get her proper treatment and care. Please consider at least lending or donating partially. By all means call me on +639167110123 and talk to me if you want.

THANK YOU ALL. THANK YOU FOR EVEN READING. THANK YOU FOR HELPING. THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME AND MY WIFE. I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS NIGHT. THIS COMMUNITY NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME SINCE THE BIRTH OF BITCOIN. PLEASE HELP

I am not broke but I am stuck with no "cash" and no time to sell something for "cash". I am working freelance projects and I am yet to deliver a mile stone to get paid and even so it wont reach in time!.

14  Economy / Currency exchange / [WTS] ~ 10 BTC - 8% off lowest market (WESTENUNION, MONEYGRAM, ETC) on: January 20, 2015, 03:30:34 AM
Hello everyone. In the spirit of this bear market I want to sell ~10 BTC. I am currently abroad packbacking. This will be my basics and my soonest possible ticket home.

I am offering 8% below the lowest "well known market off the list of markets on preev.com". The only catch is I will deliver the coins as soon as I go home from my very cold encrypted storage with the key I carry around my neck (Awesome security?), So expect a 12-16 hours for delivery. This is not for the day-traders-I-wanna-make-a-quick-buck Joe Sixcoiners

I wanna do this today, I am welling to negotiate the discount unless you are going to offer me something very unfair. Smiley

Good day awesome people,

EDIT: As I got convinced of my unfair constraints of 12-16 hours wait. I will swallow the losses to make this deal more appealing and profitable for the buyer.

17  Economy / Speculation / Torn between two lovers, Honest opinion please. on: October 04, 2014, 06:12:12 AM
Hi guys,

I have sold a decent amount of Bitcoins at $400 to buy back at $350. Now the time is here and I am thinking of waiting a little bit longer. The weekend is nigh, But it might be the last weekend before the rend upward /:.

I realize that currently if I consider my initial decision, That I am moved by greed and not rationale. But if I buy this week and it keeps on down-trending for 3-4 weeks, I consider it a loss, personally.

What do you guys think? $350+ in 3-4 weeks? a pure speculative question either you want to share your rationale with us or not.


p.s. $560k people and $100 people are just trolls and not invited in this gentlemen conversation, thank you.

19  Economy / Speculation / The truth about this bitcoin panic (My opinion) on: September 20, 2014, 06:32:18 AM
There has been alot of trash talking the price movement around here so I wanted to clear things up from my perspective and opinion, Maybe someone somewhere will find it useful and informative.

Bitcoin as a network, Bitcoin the peer to peer payment system is completely okay! It has gone through worse in a technical aspect with no serious price movement. It went through a hard fork and even a successful double spend of $10'000 in the past.

To mention miners and confuse non technical users of cost per giga hash and other mining industry related aspects is pure FUD (Fear, uncertainty and doubt) spreading. Bitcoin is working fine, Miners in and out is intended and anticipated since 2009, Nothing there is "new".

The current price swings is purely a problem of this relatively new and highly speculative and unregulated market. The panic is regarding the current very negative market signals and markers, which are very real concerns! But here I want to quote another user who amidst the FUD mentioned something important "But bitcoin trading never or rarely followed these market variables" (Rephrased from statement). this will extend to the mining industry with sharp adjustments kicking out players and bringing new ones in, but adjustments are hardly to be considered a "crash".

Would it fall hard way further? Yes I think so in fact I am rooting for it. I am very bearish these days regarding Bitcoin exchange rate. For traders in other crypto this is also a very good time to be able to evaluate other cryptos' price change to determine which exchange rates are artificial and which are reflecting a growing relatively-stable market.

With all of this said I opened a new small teashop where I live currently and I started accepting Bitcoin! My believe in Bitcoin never wavered and I do not correlate it with price movements. These two are a very different issues.

And you dear-reader, should not as well..... in my humble opinion.

P.S Yet, do not invest what you are not prepared to lose.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Master public key in another format? Desperate for help for an easy question! on: June 02, 2014, 06:37:27 PM
Hello all,

I will make it short not to waste your time.

5b8d161b69c4d417b1a3b83ad6a6d06653aefb7bfe1a88e0ae94f86b1709fe24650e6eb57b51204 658883af420c4ca146b958768f0724a4449a24f6a2397b1de

This string is a Master Public Key. But it is not related to my small question the nature of this string. What I know about it is that it is in Hex format

Now look at this array of integers

Quote
91,141,22,27,105,196,212,23,177,163,184,58,214,166,208,102,83,174,251,123,254,26,136,224,174,148,248,107,23,9,254,36,101,14,110,181,123,81,32,70,88,136,58,244,32,196,202,20,107,149,135,104,240,114,74,68,73,162,79,106,35,151,177,222


They are supposed to mean the same thing. The second array of integers is supposed to reflect either all or most of the Master Public Key above it. Can someone PLEASE help me understand what is the connection between them? In what format the integer array is and how to convert either from the first to the second or vice versa.

Thank you for reading and thank you for any help. I really appreciate it.
