Surprised this game is still running after 3 years.
When are you going to add new pictures? Looking to play but all the current ones are solved.
Welcome back! Adding a picture in a few minutes! Looks like someone got it! Well, you clearly say "make it simple" on the answer field... And that's what 2nd and 3rd option tell us  Typical of humans to complicate  Yeap. You can see the other correct answers if you click on the picture now. They are listed. As I said I wish I had added french fry but for some reason I didn't think of it at the time. Nevertheless I'm not comfortable adding answers afterwards unless the correct ones were... wrong.  Yep, that's why I said the 2nd and 3rd options were pretty simple I understand, it's fine. I'll be waiting for the next one |

It would be very risky if it were high interest indicating a scam. Plus I don't think coinbase would associate with them without doing their research. I made a small deposit. Will keep updated.
The risk factor is the same. The issue with big interest rates is the fact that the risk is more obvious... |

Hi all! This campaign might undergo a change in the next few weeks. Fixed pay has not been decided upon as of now but it is still an option.
That means you'll finally announce an avatar campaign? How "soon" is "soon"? haha Any news on avatar campaign, i'm wondering how will it look like All will be revealed soon™. Also, I'd like to see the delayed/missing payments being solved before anything else is done with the campaign. |

Yes... I hate it when this happens...  I have typed in 4 answers for this picture and obviously nobody has bet on one of those yet. I'm watching what players are betting though and to be honest I wish I had included some of these answers as correct ones. But as I've said in the past often there are answers that fit the picture but are not accepted as correct (either because I didn't think of that variation when I was typing the correct answers in or simply because there were too many variations to list. Sometimes I overdo it and add tons of correct answers. Other times I just add a few (like in this instance). I can't say much more for now without giving out clues. All right, I'll be thinking about more variations, let's see if I hit the jackpot (Just FYI: If this picture expires without a solution, the pot (excluding the starting pot) will be transferred to the next picture, it doesn't go to the website. This has happened maybe 2-3 times in the past.)
Yeah, I've seen that explained on the site |

By setting a secure password, logging in from secure environments and staking an address here. BTW, this subforum is about Bitcoin Tech Support, not Bitcointalk support, you should have probably post this on Meta, maybe. |

How can someone still expect that the coins they had deposited at Cryptsy are still safe? Consider all of their wallets comprised, after all the attacker seemed to have full server access and they were having a lot of coins (if not all) online...

Bitcoin / Mining / Re: My set-up to heat house using bitmain S7 (UPDATE 03JAN2016)

Pulling the air from inside the house, to heat a house. Wouldn't that make the air quality poor? I guess there is a reason why we have vents?  yeah the heating that is done from device like asic is not healthy at all, there are case of guy running his miners inside is room where he sleep, and he had health problem at the end That has nothing to do with air quality, but with temperature. The story is here. cryptotore was solely talking about air quality. That being said, that can probably be overcome with air filters, which are probably in place given the setup OP has |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Antonopoulos Supports, "Classic, Core, ETH, Unlimited, Litecoin, & Everything"
|

I agree with Antonopoulos when he says that all these ideas and suggestions of improving cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin in general are good... But saying that they all should co-exist is going quite far. That could go both ways, either the biggest one cannibalizes the smaller ones or they all co-exist and people will get confused. The second way is something truly undesirable. Antonopoulos isn't a man of conflict indeed, but the fact that you support one thing does not mean you're anti another thing... |

BTC-e exchange is based in Russia isn't it? Can the Russians circumvent this by using a VPN?
I wrote a comment a while back on why it's really not clear that BTC-e is in Bulgaria, since it's a particularly persistent point of contention, but decided I might as well pull it all into one post.
1) BTC-e's creators are Russian.
Qouting the linked CoinDesk article:
BTC-e is anything but transparent: it uses third-party banking services to keep its name out of official records. At least one of the banks involved in the process is located in the Czech Republic; the BTC-e site references Bulgaria in its SEO descriptions; the founders, Russian programmers Aleksey and Alexander, honed their skills at the Skolkovo tech park; and the BTC-e managing company is based in Cyprus.
2) Their previous domain registrar is Russian.
3) They use Cloudflare, a service to prevent DDoSing that masks where a website is hosted, so you cannot tell where their servers are located.
4) Their TOS now refers to Cyprus, not Bulgaria as it did in the past.
5) The only place on their website where Bulgaria is mentioned is the search engine description.
6) The only languages the websites support are Russian, Chinese, and English; their support site is in Russian and English, and the documention for their beta API is written only in Russian. SourceNobody know where they really are, basically. And yes, they can probably use a VPN. Also, they already have an alternate link working for Russian users: https://btc-e.nz/ |

I don't mind flat rate payments, as long as they're competitive, obviously, like marcotheminer said. Simple... numbers are hypothetical
Flat Rate for Legendary = minimum 50 posts per month for.3BTC
Flat Rate for Seniors = minimum 50 posts per month for.2BTC
Flat Rate for Full Member = minimum 50 posts per month for.1BTC
etc...
The same as any normal flat rate campaign.
Something like this would be fine with me and it would probably be useful to make blatant spammers go away (although I haven't been seeing spammers with bit-x sigs lately). But I do think there would be issues with folks that make a lot of posts, and in which pretty much every one of them is valid/useful/good or positive in some way (unless they can, somehow, get a bigger flat rate). |

Pretty interesting article. I think most of the confusion comes from the fact that democracy is voluntary, and not so much from not knowing the concept of democracy/democratic. More exactly, the willingness to participate in it is voluntary: just like Bitcoin.

You'll probably find people interested here. If there are more talks about the 500 BTC bar, I don't remember, but I think this is the last time someone showed interest on one of those on the forums. Also, I guess we're finally going to know who owned the second bar Watching. |
