Yeah they've started a Kickstarter now, which isn't too bad really. I mean you still get 2 piggies for €20 and they start shipping in December, I'm just hoping it gets funded since it's an all-or-nothing campaign.

Well, you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.
Not condoning killing anyone for whatever reason, but you have to be pretty stupid to let yourself get into a situation like that. Like, if you pull off a heist like that, why even stick around and keep having contact with the people you've scammed?
Take the first plane out of India and start a new life somewhere else... Seems like a no-brainer to me.

Dogecoin is beginning to become obsolete as it is being replaced by other feeless currencies as a gambling cryptocurrency.
EOS and Dash are now taking the limelight as the go-to gambling cryptocurrencies, meaning Doge should technically be losing steam over time.
Because of this, I'd avoid Doge until there is a major development (though that's unlikely).
I wouldn't say that people are only using Doge for gambling, they usually take the limelight for just being a meme-coin and get some pretty positive press for it. Heck, there have been multiple occasions where some big Twitter account tweeted about Doge and the price just skyrocketed afterwards. Even if it was purely done for jokes. My guess is that they're going to stick around for a long time.

Miner fees are not calculated interms of dollars so having the fixed withdrawal fee as some dollar is similar to the fixed bitcoin fee,the fair enough method is just calculate the fee dynamically based on the memepool status.
Mistakes can still happen when taking that approach. While it's good to have a dynamic fee suggestion, one should also have the option to add a slightly higher fee. Many gambling sites do have an approach similar to this, but usually with some sort of fixed fee.

Sure, we can do that, but it will have to wait until Steem is back to its normal state. It's currently experiencing some issues with most of the nodes, so I can't publish anything.
I'm hoping it gets fixed by tonight.

Ahh, so that's why they're not loaded with BTC. Too bad that it's a requirement for Kickstarter. But hey, you can still sell them pre-loaded via your own website in the future.
@buwaytress
Well, after thinking about it for a little bit, I decided to actually write 2 articles. The first one will just serve to promote the Kickstarter, I will write that without having actually seen the product.
The second article will be an actual review of the product, with original photographs and perhaps a giveaway or something.

@DigiPiglet
Will definitely write an article for you, looking to get it published by Tuesday at the latest. Besides that, I've also tweeted it and I'm just about to share it in my company's Slack (I'm working for a blockchain company, so it's definitely relevant).
I hope you reach your target!

@pooya87 Thanks for mentioning that, definitely bookmarking this in case it's ever needed. I actually do short time-locks pretty regularly, so I'm bound to lose the key some day

There is still a five minute timer.
Right, forgot to add that. I've edited my previous post to include it, thanks!

I've had a question regarding this for a long time, but it always seemed not worthwhile enough to create my own topic about it. I have an overview thread in the Altcoin Service Discussion board, where I could potentially add a single referral link in the listings. Would that be allowed, since the thread itself is not meant to be used for getting referrals? Here's the thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3242065.0 (Overview of Universal Basic Income Crypto Projects [24 Projects Listed]) I could only make the Manna listing a referral link, I mean it wouldn't even be worth it honestly, but it would be nice to get something out of it to keep updating it.

I've actually made quite a lot of money by investing in and playing Splinterlands (formerly Steem Monsters) Joined their kickstarter and pledged $50, in return I got around 10 valuable trading cards which I've sold for around $500 in total.
That was the most I've ever made from one of these DApp games.

@OP, the suggestion seems promising as it discourage the loan spam request observe from mostly newbie accounts with first post on the lending board.
Right? Besides, something I'd like to add to that, is that I've always though of the lending board to be something that's targeted especially at the Bitcointalk community. I mean, Bitcointalk is not trying to become a general loan platform, there are enough other and better options for that. Makes sense to have the lending board there for trusted members, but not just anyone who's just signed up to try and get a "quick and easy" loan
|

@AdolfinWolf The reasoning given in one of the Lending board sticky threads is this: A common question is why don't I just sell my collateral? Well the reasoning behind collateral is that you think it's going to appreciate in price or do not want to sell it, encouraging you to pay back the loan to have your collateral returned. Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=577765.0But yeah, I haven't seen a newbie ask for a loan while providing collateral either. Currently they're just spamming the forum with outrageous loan requests and wasting everyone's time.
|

As the title says, why are new members actually allowed to post in the lending boards? I'd say that 90% of new members who start threads in the lending boards, are doing so because they're looking for no-collateral loans.
It just seems like it would be far better to make that board only accessible to member rank or higher.
Sure, you take away the chance for them to get a loan with collateral, but has anyone ever given out a loan to a newbie with them providing acceptable collateral? Just seems like a no-brainer to me, since it's very weird to come to this forum and immediately ask for a loan.
If people want a loan with collateral, there are numerous other platforms they could use for that.
Do tell me if you think I'm wrong about this, maybe I'm completely underestimating how many newbies actually to take out loans with collateral.

Just use any reputable exchange out there and then make sure you store your crypto in your own wallet, preferably a hardware wallet. I've mostly used Kraken and Binance, but there are just so many good exchanges that it's impossible to list them all.
I know you don't want exchanges to sell your personal data, but I've found that most decentralized exchanges really lack the volume you need and prices are often hiked up.

@coolindark
Good, I'd personally also remove the HYIP/Doubler/etc section, that really brings down the reputation of your website. You'll just end up promoting scams and legitimate businesses may avoid you because of it.

Honestly, you really shouldn't waste your time on OP's question, take a look at his trust score. I really doubt that he actually has any money to spend on this, I mean he came to this forum immediately asking for a 0.01 BTC loan & promoting ponzi schemes.
