Just out of curiosity,
if you use your free rolls for lottery tickets, is it possible to win anything in the lottery?
I've tried sometime ago the free rolls every hour and I got some satoshi which I exchanged for lottery tickets, of course they were like 100 or 200 tickets, almost impossible to win, but still a fun to play.


Gamble it instead? Although. If you can stay up for 24 hours, start a 1000 RP bonus and then in 10 hours start a lottery 1000 ticket bonus per roll and then you're more likely to win. There are users with low ticket numbers who win the lottery here and some with high numbers of tickets who lose, it's all luck based and there is always a change you will win.

1 @ 0.03
5 @ 0.03

Bids must be evenly divisible by 0.02? (As suggested in the op rules).

Number 4 is definitely one I agree with. Airdrops and the like cause a lot of spam to this forum. I'd also suggest that you don't participate in icos unless the developers are well trusted or the source code gets released and looks worthy of the amount per token that the developers/marketers are asking for it.
You are right but we can't stop the airdrops as ICOs start an airdrop to spread their tokens so the holder of their token will increase. I did join airdrop but when I checked it I can't even earn money from it as it will only cost you transaction fee for the airdrop token you want to sell that doesn't even cover your fee.

You mean in Gas to send it.

I forgot that'd add value to the coin as everyone has to pay to transfer it to the exchange. If that didn't happen, I could see people selling them for a lot less, i.e. 1 sat per coin.

I get the impression you really fell for the crypto hype early on and therefore lost money? I personally would like to add that when it comes to investments, never invest in 1. something that already is pumping and 2. make sure you know yourself what it is you are investing in, and why! Once it reaches twitter you can assume the timeframe to buy and then sell for a profit is very narrow, it's the trap way too many people seem to get stuck in. But, it's good to bring up points like these!  Grin
Yes discounts are usually offered at the start o the campaign, before heavy advertising.

You can only make profit if it gets dumped and you predict the time it reaches its lowest value and buy it up and then sell it when it gets pumped again (but realistically, it might never get pumped or it might take years for it to be pumped again).

The best way of learning from mistakes is getting experience.

Mankind learns best when he experinces it firsthand so trading with small amounts of money is good way to learn new things and become a real broker.

It's always great as a newbie to make what seems to be massive losses and learn from them. You usually don't have much as a newbie so it's not much you lose but a lot you learn for when you get larger amounts...

We can't really do anything to help here.
I would suggest sending them another email or try to threeappaten legal action or something. Although, your coins might be gone. They do update wallets every so often, is the address still listed when you hit deposit on that specific account. It seems scammy that they haven't put the transaction on already although they are charging extortionate fees when you want to withdraw.
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: HOW TO CONVERT NON SPENDABLE TO SPENDABLE BTC on: September 07, 2018, 07:55:45 PM
Hello friends i have few BTC in my old wallet of which I'm unable to get private key so it is telling it's nonspendable and can be spent only with a private key I appreciate your replies

Unspendable generally means it's unconfirmed. Unspent means you have the coins.

THE PROBLEM WHEN I AM ENTERING THE BACKBUP PHRASE ITS SHOWING WRONG

What is the nature of this phrase? Is it a hexadecimal string, something beginning with spec or a series of words (generally 12 or 24)

This is a wonderful platform to get Bitcoin, however, the chances of getting something tangible is very low. Secondly, you can spend the entire day and end up making nothing. I have tried it.

That's kind of the point as far as I can tell. The free part is to attract people into using other parts of the site: lottery, multiply btc and investments in the site.

This disadvantages people from posting doesn't it and some newbies do have valid collateral?

Also: this needs moving to the meta section!

I think to confirm you aren't a scammer, sign the wallet address that the money was sent to with your username and the date. Otherwise you may continue to get negative trust.
12  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Any way to recover? on: July 16, 2016, 09:05:30 PM
Hey guys, so help would be appreiciated hope I can do anything about this?

I have money on my electrum wallet and originally had my seed and private message saved on my desktop, coming home to a surprise I had found my brother restored my PC due to some virus trouble, and I had lost my electrum wallet, seed and my message. I do have my private key, but when entered it only puts me on Watch mode thus preventing me from retrieving my money. Is there anything I  can do to recover this?

Possibly try using other clients? like: bitcoin core to import the private keys and addresses
If you can't do this, there is no other way of recovering the wallet you had.
13  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: Coince is gone... YAPS! (yet another ponzi scam!) on: July 10, 2016, 10:52:23 PM
Phew... I was about to invest in this site! Lucky it collapsed before I did (I was going to invest yesterday wo would've earned no profits and lost some bitcoin as a result.
If you don't mind, may I ask why you were considering investing in a scheme like Coince?

Was it the (ridiculously) high returns on offer? Was it that you felt the need to "do something" with your bitcoins? Was it the slick looking website with lots of "information" (but little actual proof of what it was they were actually doing to make money)?

I'm just curious to understand why people keep getting sucked into these fairly obvious ponzi schemes. Honestly, with the way the global economy is at the moment, anything offering more than 5% PER YEAR is likely to be very risky and/or a scam. There is no such thing as "easy money" unless you want to get into criminal activity or gambling... but the risks involved there are also high, as are the penalties for losing.

Hmm, interesting question. I think most people do invest in these schemes knowing tha thtye are onzis and that they are likely to fail. I'd consider to invest a small amount in it just to test it as it is a way of gambling, the same question could be asked as to why people gamble (I'm sure there are similar intentioins of both)?

In some ways ponzis could be considered good for newbies as it shows them that there are scammers for even small amounts of the money they have.

15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's stopping people from using bitcoin? on: July 10, 2016, 10:15:54 PM
A lack of knowledge of the internet, new technologies and what bitcoin does. There is also a fear with some people that their money may be stolen as a result of it being kept on an area controllable by the internet/remotely

If using yobit, you can keep it in that wallet.
You can go to ethereum's site to find the greatest wallet. If you download the wallet, you will then have to download their entire blockchain though.

Noise comes from the fans!
Change the cooling system and that will improve it!
Also:
1. try changing the fans and if not then change the cooling system for something such as water.
2. Putting the miner close to an open window?
3. Or host the miner at a family member's house and find a way to transfer elecricity to them)?
4. Pay for a miner hosting contract from a place like miningsweden.se (if they accept that)

OP is supporting theft of Iphones by asking for a good iphone quality which can be a locked iphone! It is probably recommended to deal with this member with caution!
Also, for a "brand new" 34GB iphone quality, id say it'd be worth over $200?
19  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Who owns Adbit.co? on: June 28, 2016, 11:36:51 PM
Hey guys, adbit.co developer here. My client BitRush is the owner of the site, purchased off of Carlos last year. I'm in Canada, and BitRush is also a Canadian company although the owners are also originally from Europe and travel back and forth frequently. I realize that the BitRush support has not been very responsive, I am working on getting them to improve that. In the meantime any technical issues you can email me directly at nrathman@ironcladtech.ca (I almost never come on bitcointalk) and I'l get them fixed ASAP. Any stuck coin we will get fixed and any missing funds paid back I can 100% guarantee. Apologies for any issues experienced up till this point (and for showing up to this thread almost 2 months later)

Thank you Cryptonaut420 for your apology and temporary fix to the problem.
This should allow for people to view the site as fully working again, you may wish to post your email on the website somewhere?

The site is still running?
If you read the post before that you'd see that the problem may have been solved (though a person may need to test this)!

The owners of https://hashocean.com are working on the website
Last update of database: Tue, 28 Jun 2016 18:49:55 GMT

Refund-hashocean.com is a scam (they are after your login details) Wait a day or two and see what happens.

I think they're gone!
Pretty sure that that is the only thing that they would do to do this
They also claim someone hacked their web address. That's fine, ut they have two of them!
