1041  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethex.bet 🏆 FAIR LOTTERY GAME! TRY DEMO or Win 1 of 5 Jackpots! on: March 19, 2019, 07:01:05 PM
To win the Superprize, you need to select the specific symbol for all 6 cells. If you guess all of the last 6 symbols of the next Ethereum block, you immediately win the whole prize pool and the full jackpot amount!

If you manage to guess all 6 symbol of the hash — you win the Superprize!

Note: if there is more than one person who guesses all 6 cells, the whole jackpot amount is divided proportionally between all winners, according to their bet amounts.



-----


So, what i dont understand, you need to guess the 6 symbols as 65b934 or the 6 cells have to be green for example NNNLNN
N - Number
L - Letter

It almost feels it should be symbol since looks like too damn good opportunity.

Edit: Damn the prizepool was almost drained, i think fees paid should be way smaller, kinda worth to wait imho and they would perhaps stop being so picky if this was done jointly on the whole network.
Redit: Prizepool completly empty, I'm nearly certain that till it isn't filled back a bit you shouldn't send a bet but i'm not sure.

Also, just my paranoia or fees might consume a wagering bankroll?

Tip: You should note in the name of the ANN that it is on-chain.

I mean, I just outright refuse to invest in any sort of ICO, just because they usually have absolutely nothing to show for it and the chances of getting burned are just too great.
Think about it, there are enough projects that manage to get things done, before even raising a single dollar of funding.

Verifying the team behind an ICO might mitigate some of the risks, but in the end it's always possible that they do not reach the goals they've set out.
No matter who they are...


Well, this is not something that allow us to see competitiveness but yes however cataloguize their capabilities if they actually do a job. Also, there is always more people, and time, we aren't against chronometer right now all real hurry is eagerness for profits or timing because of speaking too early.
Indeed most successfull projects were either done without any coin raising or the code was provided right after the raising, so, done before.


More funnily, with their identity known they might think twice before doing a run after the ICO.

KYC was created to comply with the fiat world and its laws of centralization and is enforced by the government to mainly prevent money laundering but also to keep track of what people are doing with their money so that they can tax them.

at some point in last years when ICOs started failing and could no longer fool enough people to rob them, they started coming up with weird ways to look legitimate and one of the many ways used was KYC. then immediately afterwards they realized since they are not really regulated and there is no law that they abide by, they started selling all that information to make more money.
the worst part is that KYC and its problems is not even an ICO related issue. there are exchanges that have done the same thing! like bittrex selling user data on darknet...

that is KYC from customer perspective.
I think KYC used to be done because both company and government demands it towards user so they don't launder money bla bla , but if it was done from us towards unknown people AND taxes are paid then it should be surveilled/identified by whatever entity recieves the taxes (treasury I think it is called) , not a company that hasn't proven itself and has chances of going shady.
Shouldn't treasury take care the creators are legit since all this shit is taxed?

Also, whoever claim's an ICO is trusted just because is on icobench or whatever site might be a shill or holder, I agree it might give a better insight or even can help prevent scams but one is also easy to be influenced, just look at yobit and their own shittokens coins all day, everyone profits. Shitcoins, we don't even get those nowadays and if they were easy to create then an ico is a term of 2 months where you hype and raise.
Not having a whitepaper before even mentioning an ICO says a lot already.

And for the end, how and when the hell we start making it a crave and deny doing it otherwise?

Any chance we get a chat on the site?

Hi, andulolika!

The chat was originally planned, and it will be added to the game. However, users ask about it as often as possible, so we even raised its priority.

Also, we will add a board with all 5 jackpots very soon. After all, this is the main feature of the game, which allows you to count on winning even 2-3 months after buying a ticket.

And also we will soon add payout history to winners.

By the way, I forgot to thank you for the rest of the advice and answers. Thank you very much! Regarding the issue of working with other coins - yes, so far we have figured out how to implement everything as transparently as possible only in a pair with ETH.
It's my pleasure, I really enjoyed the game, I was very close to mention something about a board for the jackpots to count one's tickets, didn't call it board tho Tongue.
Whatever crosses my mind will be mentioned.

Also, I think you should post a bit more specificaly how the provably fair works and the blocks are selected.
I did find a section tho, just that im not able to read the contract .
Edit
did someone already get the Jackpot?
because i just saw a payment for 0.65 eth from 0.02 eth bet
I also think someone won thru the night.

So, what does KYC mean? I always hated that thing, mostly because I feelt it is an unnecesary leak of information.

With these times and all the shitcoin scams and real waste of time and money I came to the resolution that we need a new meaning for KYC.

Know Your CEO.

The best way we could prevent or atleast act in the case (most certain) of one of any new project being a scam is selecting a number of trusted users of the community to verify the "Team" of any coin just the same way we are verified in most sites.
Since most of the new coins claim the "Team" is the people shown in the pictures they shouldn't mind verifying it to this peculiar non snitch trustworthy gathering of users.

In the case a project is to be compared to bitcoin or ethereum and the team crave anonimity you shouldn't need an ICO or could provide code before launching and provide a service.

Any ideas? Would anyone actualy ask for this before investing? and keep the word and not invest without the check?

I think it is more than a fair price for trusting someone with perhaps thousands of bitcoins.

Edit: I has another interesting post few ahead for (for the ones that read op only)
It is hard to obtain genuine infos regarding ceo's, the easiest way is to make a black list with all the projects (and the team behind it) that has been proven to be scam.
I'm very tired and cannot make a post right now, after I sleep and wake up well I will make a new post erasing this one and making a  new one or something.

I just had to note that  one must be very careful on notes about people around a project, shills and such.

I love bitcoin physical coins but what the hell are they made of?

The ones in this thread are made of .999 Silver
I were being a bit sarcastic, I love crypto physical btc and ... perhaps I would pay half btc for 1 in a 24 coins, most definetly without exagerating, but I can't just be butthurt at silver price and price of the coins, I had made some research and one could get 50 coins of 10 grams of METEORITE metal, so metal from outside our solar system with a pretty fucking cool etching patern (excluding the manufacturing just brute "metal") could cost between 2 and 4000 dollars which is roughly 1.1 btc? Since (not long ago) i discovered the "silver dollar" i would of just loved the silver bitcoin "coin"... nowadays 10kg of silver would make for a silver bitcoin and most certainly no one will ever make that but honestly if i had the funds id definetly pay for 1 btc worth of silver (say 10kg) and perhaps the funding... if we are realistic how much can the manufacturing cost?

You are wrong. First of all, anyone can be biased because you know money can always talk. So, it will a bad idea to create a team of trusted members. If those trusted member can't ensure you the safety, what will happen? I think IEO is all way better than anything related fund raising for now.
What if they got paid, perhaps with the cryptocurrency itself. I just don't see why can't we just ALL or.. most of the investors see it clean and transparent as it is and it goes same for politicians, when you have in your hands the future of something people might believe in be it a country or a currency or a person AND your position tends to be seeken by unwanted activists then atleast for a while you should accept a leak in privacy unless you can give proof upfront, like code itself.

I accept to pass the KYC process only when the team members of the project are verified. If I can assure that the project is legit and won't steal my funds, I do  not have any problems by passing the full KYC procedure.
They can be hard to distinguish if you don't look well, some are pretty easy to spot indeed and then you got a real shame of graphic designing wasted in some.
I'm saying nothing about KYC from the user sender side
Also, identification and verification can be faked on many sites, thats why in 2nd post if I'm not wrong I were mentioning for more drastical measures I dislike a bit. That's why I think joint cooperation between the community members would be crucial to prevent.
1049  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: A new look to KYC, from a customer's perspective. on: March 17, 2019, 05:25:11 PM
I think there is a need of an intermediary. A trusted intermediary which should receive the KYC of the applicants on the behalf of companies, verifies them and send the results to concerned company. I think there are already few websites providing this service but adopting them as intermediary is not a common practice among companies.
Such intermediary should work two-way, verifying applicants KYC one way and verifying the genuineness of company the other way. Everyone will be in win-win situation.
We used to have escrow that hold funds for projects but I only participated in a couple of them.

So, what does KYC mean? I always hated that thing, mostly because I feelt it is an unnecesary leak of information.

With these times and all the shitcoin scams and real waste of time and money I came to the resolution that we need a new meaning for KYC.

What's interesting is that projects that promise to create a decentralized platform are in demand for KYC. They're breaking down their own rules when they're at the beginning yet.

Sometimes parteneriates request such thing and is the way to take if you want to develop a legit business.

So, what does KYC mean? I always hated that thing, mostly because I feelt it is an unnecesary leak of information.
KYC/AML is really needed especially if you are starting a company that offers innovation and if you want to improve your services and if you want to have a solid statics and data system. You said that you need to know the CEO of the company before letting them know your personal information but it's not the thing you have to base. You have to know the whole team and what they really do. If you really wanted to try to invest with them then you have to try your best to reach them and talk with them verbally.

OP, please check this the remediation of having KYC/AML. :  https://complyadvantage.com/knowledgebase/kyc/kyc-remediation/

What I mean is the same but from the perspective of the community to prevent and be able to recognize and localize the subject in case of scam.

I think LinkedIn is doing a good enough job for that already. Profiles that have been live for decades are not exactly falsifiable, and you can always contact the CEO's connections and ask around.
I made once an account that could easily been leaked on my time of low security passwords since it was same as of leaked mails.
Besides that accounts can also be farmed I think is nothing close to enough.

Everyone has a price.

Even trusted members of the community can be paid to write positive reviews.
And even if they are truly honest and do not want to do positive reviews for a few bucks, they could just make mistakes

So it's better to do your own research . .
Great, one has legs too in case is too susceptible to prices, however, how bad would be if these peoples identities become public if they really wish to progress through an ICO?

One should always do his researches aswell, and I cannot find trustable just a group of people either, thats why I recommend reading the second post I made aswell.
1053  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: A new look to KYC, from a customer's perspective. on: March 17, 2019, 02:34:48 PM
I'm generalizing but all or most I seen about ICO promoting sites cannot really prove the projects are legit, I did seen a good few of succeeding projects but that is not something that can be atributed to the site itself since they only promote it.
Most of the scams are pretty poor made and well, they just similar clones nowadays.

Then there's again as someone mentioned, we are facilitating our information to perhaps indesirable identities while investing so an eye should be keept from all sides.

First of all we have the problem of fake ID, we could complicate things for them a lot, I mean what kind of stupid verifications we get on "legal" sites?, wether it be gambling or, whatever that involves information, meet in person could be nice but also really easy to scam, cam?

Second is capability, before, one had to come with code first. I seen 80-90% of the team aren't really programmers on most projects, what are we looking for people to plaster our ideas into a currency or usefull service, recreation etc. Or hypists to spam our not even made brand.
I were very harsh here, there is involvement of a lot of people for a project to succeed but you cannot expect to be able to do something just by finding nicer and better ways to tell something, and well having a wider audience to do so.

I don't agree with taxes, but people accepts them and since we are paying taxes for benefits or "cashout", extreme ones in some countries, we should also be able to use aid from the government in verifying their identity and, well, mentionable doings of the team.

However with this measure I'm extremely concerned for other projects, projects mantained and developed as communities and exchanges asking for such things for listing, there is projects that are developed differently like bitcoin, monero, ethereum etc, such projects could have proven developers which identity wished to be wished shall be private .

It's the only privacy-centric currency along with dash and perhaps two other coins I has no knowledge about that let you buy and sell a reasonable amount of money (BTC) without causing too much price movement.

Also monero has a large real user base and the network hashrate is between the largest, AND most important it has a community with developers that makes sure the code is safe and that whatever breach found is fixed as soon as possible.

As we all know still exit scam ICO's are victimizing investors including me in my frustration I wish these people be killed or if busted they must sentenced to death Penalty are you favor of it.

If you will ask the community of working and investing in crypto world there will be 100% YES on this question.
But this topic should not taken place on this, ARE WE IN FAVOR OF DEATH PENALTY TO CORRUPT GOVERNMENT?
Are we in favor of letting plunderers to be sentenced to death? will hey allow it?

We need now is the regulation to keep the scammers away in the community and stop them on having their own ICO!
Hey I'd do the politicians myself, funniest part of the scamcoins is that they all look the same. Nowadays they don't even need to code to get an ICO out, yes they show who the team is, 5 people who are good at hyping and talking not a single coder.

I think there's no clean way with this kind of people.

1059  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Death Penalty to ICO Scammers! Are you favor it? on: March 16, 2019, 06:23:16 PM
it's a very severe punishment for ICO scammers and it will be enough to take off all their money or other assets. it will help to reduce their quantity.

Aaaand you shitting yourself, ofcourse legaly that action will never be taken but.. you know, people sometimes knows and likes the fact that one can fix it's own problems, you and your kind be afraid of being doxxed because never never know what comes in the future.

In fact, you are right that fraudsters should be held responsible for the actions, but unfortunately in the field of cryptocurrency there is still no body that controls the legality of ico.
What is really uncomprehensive is the sucess of ICO sites and exchanges accepting them or the listing fees or just the fact that even if you see its a scam you would go in AND promote it for a small profit.


----

I however got to the thought that not only the owners/doe-rs should be held responsible but the paid shills they use and the army of bounty accounts that just use the shills to pump their thread.
----

Well, just let the law take its right cause and never put justice in your own hands.
It is a fact that scammers have cause some people to shed tears and that is really disheartening.
I been a victim on some occasions, but that has also made me to learn my lessons and has made me to be whom I am today.
Lol there's no justice, you just a bit scared? Just don't worry, as your identities start going out so will lives or legs. We don't trust cops to fix our shit, remember that.
Laws don't do shit nor those legal companies that work with them either.
