NotATether brother has given a challenge to run a bitcoin node for 14 days, promising to give 14 merits and he is doing it.Here the rules of at least 30 activities and 50 posts have been kept to participate.It shows that many new account openers quickly complete 50 posts and create 30 activities in just a few days and join here for 14 merit hunts.Which takes shape like pumking and pizza contest is not a problem. Since they are in the rules.

I have 2 questions......

• how to know with Blockchaininfo code what % of nodes are downloaded because I can't find the progress rate in the coding
• Another question is if someone participates here with multiple accounts, how can it be understood? Is it possible with any tools or application through Blockchaininfo's coding to see if the node is running multiple times through the same device for multiple accounts ? and which this tools or application ?Because there are rules that it is forbidden to participate with multiple accounts

• Do not enroll alt accounts.

I love to play Ludo game with my friend in this case i use popular Ludo game (Ludo king) Here we can play ludo together with another friend through an invitation code and also invite social friends to play ludo through social media accounts connected. I have not found such ludo game in casino sites.  Can anyone find a casino site where i can play ludo but bet with bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies? Then it will be more fun for me.  I think it's more fun than other gambling games because it has to be played with your critical  Brain.

Most of the time I play Blackjack & Dice.  I have always noticed that when I bet a large amount I am a loser when it comes to Dice.  Also in case of Blackjack when I bet big amount I get wrong card due to which I lose the bet. On the other hand when I bet small amount I win in case of Dice and if I bet small amount multiple times I win multiple times.  In Blackjack, when I bet small amounts, I am always get good cards and win the bets. Thus the cycle continues.  I have noticed that it is not an easy thing to withdraw from having achieved something great. I always gamble for fun with small amounts and lose them but I don't care. But I started playing blackjack yesterday with $1k and noticed that the casino sites are somehow cheating us. I lost my $1k yesterday. through Blackjack. What do you think about casino site algorithms?  Are they cheating with us?

The Muslim holy month of Ramadan will begin from March.  So from now the raw materials required for the month of Ramadan are being imported in the market.  I went to a raw market in my town yesterday and saw every bag of chickpeas printed with bitcoin gold. I was surprised to see that in my country so far the cryptocurrency government is not fully legalized. There's Bitcoin Gold printed on the sacks of chickpea bag. I understand that these products are imported from abroad. And I'm just thinking about how the name of Bitcoin  is spreading globally. What do you think about it?

To those who experienced and resolved this please help me.

I already set at my bios that my Onboard Integrated graphics will be the default display, it was all fine until I inputted my 10th GPU on any GPU slot and it will boot up and show display if I remove and have 9 GPU socketed.

Any thoughts about this or should I install something?

Excuse my innocence if you may but I would like to ask about the 'Trust' feature of us, forum members.

I've seen different people who got a lot of positive green trust and red too but I'm confuse on what's the meaning of this "Trust: +9 / =1 / -3" it has 3 digit with a positive 9 and negative 3 and especially the confusing =1, please enlighten and forgive me if I still don't know this even if I'm a Sr.Member.

Alam kong maraming mahilig mag basketball sa atin at interesado sa nalalapit na NBA Playoffs kaya gumawa ako ng Prediction pool, Actually nung una trip ko sana gumawa ng pa-ending kaso hindi ata maiintidinan ng ibang lahi kapag pinost ko yung sa Gambling section pero kapag ginanahan ako gagawin ko yun.

Gusto ko lang sanang malaman nyo mga kababayan na meron akong ginawang NBA Prediction Pool at hinihikayat ko kayong sumali kung trip nyo, pa click na lang yung link para sa mga instructions, SALAMAT!.

NOTE: This thread are for those participants of 2019 NBA playoffs Prediction Pool.
If you want to join it costs BTC0.005 and should be send here(Hhampuz address, our trusted Escrow): bc1qmgll2sayg9qx4mt86d8c054ysjvm5r39dqpg3y

The 2019 NBA playoffs will be starting on April 13, 2019
The entry fee is BTC0.005 for each participant

The winners will be the top 4 participants who got the highest points at the end of the Playoffs.            Example: If there are 10 participants who joined then the prize pool would be BTC0.05

1st place  :  50% of the total pool                                                                                                         1st  : BTC0.025
2nd place :  20% of the total pool                                                                                                         2nd : BTC0.01
3rd place  : 10% of the total pool                                                                                                          3rd : BTC0.005
4th place  :  5% of the total pool                                                                                                           4th : BTC0.0025

How the 2019 NBA Playoffs Prediction Pool Works: There are 16 teams that will be playing in the Playoffs and 8 teams for the Eastern and Western Conference respectively.
There will be a 4 rounds in each conference consisting of the 1st round(Eastern/Western Quarter-finals), 2nd round(Eastern/Western Semi-Finals), 3rd round(Eastern/Western Conference Finals), 4th round(NBA Finals).
(This will be a prediction for a series win and not per game)

In the 1st round the participants must predict 8 winning teams that can proceed to the Eastern/Western Semi-Finals.
In the 2nd round the participants must predict 4 winning teams that can proceed to the Eastern/Western Finals.
In the 3rd round the participants must predict 2 winning teams that can proceed to the NBA Finals.
In the 4th round the participants must predict 1 winning team or the NBA Champions.


For each 1 game away from a correct prediction the participant will receive 3 points
For each 2 game away from a correct prediction the participant will receive 2 points
For each 3 game away from a correct prediction the participant will receive 1 point
For each exact correct prediction the participant will receive 5 points
For each wrong prediction the participant will receive 0 point

There will be only four winning results in each series and that is:
4-0 = 4 games
4-1 = 5 games
4-2 = 6 games
4-3 = 7 games


Score Multipliers for each round:
1st round : 1x
2nd round: 2x
3rd round : 3x
4th round : 4x


(This image is just an example)


Let's say the 2019 NBA Playoffs started today then I am one of the participant.
I will place my bet with this kind of format:

My predictions(1st round of Eastern/Western Conference):                                             My predictions(2nd round of Eastern/Western Conference):
Western:                                                    Eastern:                                                              Western:                                       Eeastern:
GSW vs. POR = POR win in Game 7              BOS vs. CHI = BOS win in Game 4                        GSW vs. LAC = GSW win in Game 6         BOS vs. ATL = BOS win in Game 4
LAC vs. UTA  = LAC win in Game 6               WAS vs. ATL = ATL win in Game 7                         OKC vs. SAS = OKC win in   Game 7          MIL vs. CLE = CLE win in Game 4
HOU vs. OKC = OKC win in Game 7              TOR vs. MIL = MIL win in Game 4
SAS vs. MEM = SAS win in Game 4               CLE vs. IND = IND win in Game 7

and the winning results are:                                                                                                and the winning results are:
Western:                           Eastern:                                                                                       Western:                 Eastern:
GSW win in Game 4           BOS win in Game 4                                                                        GSW win in Game 4         BOS win in Game 6
LAC win in Game 7             ATL win in Game 7                                                                         SAS win in Game 7         CLE win in Game 4
OKC win in Game 5            MIL win in Game 7
SAS win in Game 4            CLE win in Game 4

Western:                   Eastern:                                                                                               Western:                   Eastern:
GSW -  0 point           BOS - 5 points                                                                                      GSW = 2 points         BOS = 2 points
LAC  -  3 points          ATL -  5 points                                                                                      OKC =  0 points         CLE = 5 points
OKC -  2 points          MIL -  1 points
SAS -  5 points          CLE -  0 point

Then I would have a total Score of 21 points in the first round          Then I would have a total Score of 18 points in the 2nd round because there are x2 multipler in the 2nd round

If there are scores tied at the end of the Prediction pool then the prizes will be divided to the winners equally.

Out of curiosity as I read here in Gambling discussion there are various sports that's conducting prediction pool, why is it there is no prediction pool regarding with the NBA playoffs?

I'm a Basketball enthusiast ever since I was a child and I'm so excited when the NBA playoffs are coming.

Edit: I already started an official prediction pool here 2019 NBA Playoffs 2019 Prediction Pool(ONGOING REGISTRATION)
and this thread will now serve as a Discussion thread

You can ask here to whatever related to the 2019 NBA Playoffs 2019 Prediction Pool(ONGOING REGISTRATION) and I'll answer your queries as soon as possible.

I thought the slow price increase of Bitcoin is a sign of a Bull market but I was wronged, it happens so fast. I'm deciding to invest $1000 yesterday, thanks God I didn't. It seems spike increase nowadays are so scary as it follows a downfall afterwards.

New strategy learned, ride the slow price increase and wait for the sudden price increase within a day then sell  .

Almost 3 months now and I just got curious about what happened to Nullius because I was not active lately but right before my inactivity I read a lot of his posts that is so substantial and efficient, I once think that Satoshi Nakamoto has a connection to Nullius. It seems to me that he's now busy about his/her(is she or he?) real life.

Now I am back stronger more than ever, I will not let my monster inside me eat me again. Happiness and Positivity is the key to a stress free life. It's good to be back.

I need a sms verification for US numbers, Pm me for more details

I can't really understand why Bitcoin fluctates fast, even it will goes up or down. Is it because there are too many miners nowadays? or the supply and demand of services through Bitcoins. The only thing that I understand is it has a really great value compare to Fiat money.

Just like Foreign exchange(Forex) is there any thing related to it in Bitcoin in any other cryptocurrencies or there is any legit platform that we can use to transact in the exchanges of it?

It seems that even you pay fees when transacting or sending through blockchain with bitcoin, you still have to wait for a mean time or maybe a long period of time, but there is a free of charge in sending bitcoin and when you look at the blockchain you ride along with another sender/hash that is paying a fee, is it unfair or there is a logically explanation behind it?.
