Is there any documentation on how this ties in with CS:GO? I played a match to see how it all works since there's no information I could find (i.e., what types of matches count? What is the payout scale like? How do you verify you're actually being credited? Tons of unanswered things) and it looks like you just have to wait 6h or so and hope?

You can’t expect anyone to invest when your numbers don’t back a million dollar valuation - However I would be willing to buy some of the coins later and play the market depending on how it does upon initial release.


Does no good to say things like this here. I've even detailed WHY it's not worth close to $1m. Non-investors that wish they were investors are here and will bash anything you say because of their ignorance. And then when they don't ROI, they'll come crying "OMG WE WERE SCAMMED" when they weren't.

I'd love to see an idea like this work, but its valuation is obviously way off. As long as non-investors keep blindly throwing their money at things saying "OMG ITS A BITCORNS AND NOW WELL BE RICH LOL" it'll never end. I think I've seen two legitimate investment opportunities over the past few months.

Just wan't to confirm that I received the payment for this campaign. I'll stay with this campaign.
Thanks Betcoin.ag and roslinpl

Confirming as well. All have been paid, though I would argue that it's not 24-72h after the end of each round (usually 4-4.5 days). Regardless, amount is always as promised.

Very nice! It'd be awesome if whoever is in control over the domain can post analytics from just before and the couple days after the fight once they've been gathered, to help better understand how much it affected things.

With moneypot, you have no risk
There is always a risk. Moneypot is not full proof and indestructible bitcoin bank. Although risk is significantly less it is still there.
Recently  MoneyPot was sold to a new crew and has a new owner and similar thing can happen in the future. We have no 100% guarantee.

I have to say that this statement is 100% correct. While there are MANY things done to help concrete things, nothing is foolproof. Even in the real world, your bank, FDIC, and government could crumble. It's all a risk vs. reward.

That said, running an app on the MP platform reduces dev. costs and keeps you from sustaining any losses from bets. Whether a player wins or loses, you earn money. It's as risk-free as you're going to get.

Good to see INvestor profit rising up . Will invest more now .

Last week it was 51 ,......... bits
now 56 ........ bits .. very cool

Now 65 Smiley

Oh thats awesome . Hadn't seen that . Now my profits would be gone too high hurrayy .. I thought after jackpot racer hit that 1 btc . The profit would go less and requires time to get back up.. BUt no..
hi there just a newbie thing question here about investing do you any specific amount that I need to invest to earn with you? I'm new to this so I'm not sure if Im in the right place but since that this is your thread that's why I decided to ask sorry if ever that I'm OT right now but I've heard good comments like this so it take my guts to ask here. thank you.

There's no minimum but keep in mind that it does alter your percentage of the BR (therefore profit/losses as well). Even with 100 bits you'll see fluctuations in the balance.
1528  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it profitable to run a dice gambling site? on: March 27, 2016, 09:55:05 AM
you'll be lucky to make a dice gambling sites. if you have a big bankroll and capital. I'm sure there are times when a player will win. for that you must have a large amount of capital, so that it can recover your loss


Having really a big capital on creating a dice site is a must and you must also how know how to run a website so you can be sure that your site is really secured or else all the money that put in your investment will be gone.

Or you use a platform like MoneyPot, where you just piggyback the investor bankroll and can prototype/launch sites quickly without all the security risks of maintaining wallets and the like. As of right now, you'd instantly have the backing of a 220 BTC bankroll, for example.

If you had done MP back 13 months ago, you'd be up over 110% right now

What's MP?

MoneyPot.

Dice investment comparison

TLDR "On the 1st of October 2014 we invested ฿1 in the house bank of the top 9 bitcoin gambling investments sites ... 13 months after .. we lost 32% of our investment"

So what you're saying is... if you give random sites your money (note: all three of those you listed that 'ran off' were less than trustworthy to begin with and were stupid gambles), you're probably going to lose it. Makes sense.

If you had done MP back 13 months ago, you'd be up over 110% right now (2.1 BTC+ would be your balance), with over 40% of that coming just from the past few months (since mid-December).

Tweaked the details of what tiers will be offered for the Captain Disaster game.  I would like to get a rough idea of how many people might be interested - presuming that the majority of people interested will probably come from the existing GP community anyway - so I'd be really grateful if anyone who is genuinely interested in this idea could vote on the poll I'll run on the devblog for the next week.
http://www.captaindisasterthecomputergame.com/

Tiers:
- Supporter (Pre-order game and mention in credits) for 1000GP
- Investor (Pre-order game, mention in credits, 1GP for every unit sold in first 3 months after launch) for 3000GP
- Patron (Pre-order game, Special mention in credits with small photo, mention on dev blog with hyperlink to your website [no Gambling / NSFW], 2GP for every unit sold in first 3 months) for 6000GP


Just bumping this as I have only had 2 votes so far!

Not really interested in any of those myself. "Investor" shouldn't just last 3 months (same with Patron, since it piggybacks).

It's nice to see they did listen and reward investors a little more.

Just a few questions.

1. How can anyone know the profits the site will generate hence if the investors are getting the % they are supposed to get?

2. What can stop the owners selling out if it gets big for millions and the new owners just giving the finger to the investors? Ie no more rev share?

3. If we don't know who any of you guys are what stops you guys just saying you're not going to pay out to investors either after it's up and making a fortune?

4. Are there any things that can be done to ensure these things don't happen or is it just going to have to be an act of faith on the investors part?


I like the site and love the concept...shame the entire thing can not be decentralised somehow.

To add on to this... Steam Silver. I just realized there's no information on if that's paid out as well to investors. Is SS part of these payments? If so, is it paid out as SS or as BTC?
1533  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best gambling website to invest in house and why? on: March 26, 2016, 01:24:33 AM
So, the question is there, pls share your experiences.

What about Moneypot? Is it profitable? Reputable? If not, what is your best pick and why?
I'd say JustDice and Moneypot. I can't think another option other than these two options. I've invested on Moneypot before they sold their website, it's "quite" profitable, but I did not know if it is still profitable, though. It's slow if you invest just a few cents, TBH.

Well, yeah, if you invest very little, your return is little. That's like saying "if you buy 1 of the 39 million shares of x, you won't get much in dividends." Really? And here I thought 1/39,000,000 was a huge portion.

And just to clarify, MP is up over 45% in the past 3.5 months. I don't know what you consider as 'profitable' though, so can't really give input on whether or not that's a big return.


Well its a double edged sword. You invest a little, you make a little but if a whale comes in and empties the bankroll then you lose a little. Same is true vice versa.

"Never invest more than you can afford to lose." If you're putting money in these sites and can't afford to write it off as a complete loss, I really don't know what to say.
1534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BREAKING NEWS! WWW.GAMEBET.GG Launches GameBet Coin (GBT) Sale on now!! on: March 25, 2016, 09:11:57 PM
Hi, we've listened to your concerns and we value them as this is a community driven project. Since many people seem to be concerned about early return of interest (i.e. what if we are only making 5k a week?) we have raised the initial amount being sold - but to protect ourselves we will scale back that percent to original values after a year to the original values. Please read the update made to the OP:

Quote
< $50,000.00 - 15%
$50,000.00 - $75,000.00 - 22.5%
> $99,999.99 - 30%

It is important to note these are initial values. Over the spand of a year the value of %-sold will be lowered by 33% a maximum of 2 times. For example, if 30% is sold initially, after 6 months it will be reduced to 20%, and then after another 6 months to 10%. This is to address investors return-of-interests as we understand profitability within the first year of operating will be lower than in the long-term.

I hope the GAMEBET site has a secure connection soon. I think eSports is an area with a ton of potential growth and I like your idea of integrating it into crypto, but the site seems kinda amateur at this point. Sorry to be blunt, I do wish you the best of luck and may still invest a bit for the hell of it.

Hi, I think you are talking about https? It will be ready soon in the upcoming days. For additional security purposes, we recommend using 2FA found in Account > Options.

Lastly, we understand the front end design isn't the most professional look and are currently in the process of revamping it. Our primary focus early on was reliability in terms of back-end functionality, thanks for your concerns and we appreciate the communities feed back so far!


Let me get this straight. Now if the 100k is reached then we'll be splitting 30% of the profits for year one then 20% also on year one then 10% on year two?
That's amazing. So my investment is worth more is basically what your saying?

How would someone value the company now. is it 333k? and not 1m?

That still puts the valuation at 1m. Still not a good deal, but at least they're headed in the right direction I guess.

But mu investment is worth more now because we get more of the profits, Right?
or is it just worth more the the 1st year?

Why are you asking me to repeat what is literally in one of the posts you quoted?

Im sorry, still a little shakey when it comes down to all this valuing a business talk. Its out of my league.

Not to be a dick, but that means you shouldn't be gambling (if you don't fully comprehend all of this, you're not investing, you're gambling), just like pretty much everyone else in this thread, :p.

I dont see this as gambling. I am investing in a coin and the site. Some investments pay off and some dont but I dont need to be a business mogul to understand how to invest in game bet.

An investment makes fiscal sense, with at least a decent chance of success. When you're playing with a high-risk, low-reward situation, it's gambling. Ask any accredited investor if they'd touch this.

If they dropped the valuation to 100k, it'd still be a bit overpriced but would at least make sense to throw money at. Most investors would still steer clear, but I like taking risks now and then when there's a business I can help grow and have a strong background in/expertise with, like this, Smiley.

1536  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ◆Rubies◆ [RBIES] Trade-Mining | Business backed from launch. on: March 25, 2016, 08:39:41 AM
Sorry to ask  a dumb question but need a clarification on this: if I buy some rubies on an exchange, lets say C-Cex, and I store them in my C-Cex rubies wallet do those coin start staking or I need to withdraw them to a wallet I previously installed on my PC to earn interest?


Thank in advance for your help.

Hello good question,

Exchanges, unless they specifically state it, do not share staking rewards with their users. To stake and guarantee you are getting the rewards keep them in a home/PC/Mac wallet. Keep in mind it takes at least 12 hours for coins in your wallet to mature, if you move coins it restarts the 12 hour clock on them, 5% interest per year will be earned on staked Rubies. If you need any more help let us know Smiley

Thanks for the clarification.

Just a little bit more help  Smiley : for my coins to stake should my wallet be up and running (so I have to kee pmy PC on and wallet open) or I just can open it just a couple of hours a day just to synch it and check the reward coming?

It will only stake while it's open and unlocked. But you can stake however frequently you want. Some will do it weekly, some nonstop, some monthly, etc. Your reward will always be the same (i.e., if you would get 1 RBIES per day and you just waited 30 days, you'd get 30 when you staked, so you still didn't lose).
1537  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best gambling website to invest in house and why? on: March 25, 2016, 08:37:49 AM
i liked investing in moneypot mostly because of the popularity and that it is a gambling wallet type of system that many sites used but after the change i stopped the investment. might check again in future if not busy.

also i like crypto-games both the site and the investment plan.

but did you know moneypot owner have been changed? is it not changes your decision to trust them?
i my self did not talk moneypot now is not trusted , but with ownership and management changed at least it make me a little bit worry.
i prefer to invest in betking.io only for now.
Investments are always risky. Moneypot has changed ownership but I can't find any reasons to not trust the new owners given their experience and reputation[1]. Betking.io and Moneypot have the same owners. Personally, I have invested in moneypot for sometime now and I have made great profits.

Satoshidice is one of the oldest and trustable too. They have quite some volume so IMO, they would be a great spot for investments.

BK and MP do not have the same owners...
