The best one I would say to earn BTC is signature campaigns. You can look around and post on the forum and gain more knowledge. When you reach the member's status, you can join signature campaigns. It isn't a good idea to only rely on this for your main source of income since signature campaigns can be a scams and they don't pay much.

I don't understand why people discuss other signature campaigns in this thread. There are special topics for that.
Because we want to see how Stunna will respond to the competition. Better sooner than later.

Oh yes ... if stunna will not raise prices many users will abandon   Roll Eyes .
I don't think Stunna would actually rise much price. Yes they have escrow but can they prove that they won't run away even after a few rounds? I believe Stunna's reputation is more valuable than the price he pays for. It won't affect him if users abandon this campaign, he already have a lot of recognition for his dice site already, furthermore with PD3 just around the corner.

To people saying the other signature might run out of funds... They did have over 225BTC invested in their own bankroll and put 5 btc up as escrow. The investment pool already has 12 more btc since I last checked, and the site has profited 0.4 btc in just 4-5 days.

It's ignorant to immediately jump to scammer conclusion. And stunna will likely lose 50-60 people to this other signature campaign, so I think it does have a reason to be brought up here.


where did you get the data about their funds and their profits?
For their funds, you can find it on their official thread with their cold storage address on the first post. Even though their profits can be manipulated, I don't see any reason to assume they are scammers. The profits should be able to be found on site.

Goof around with them to learn about sending, receiving and storing bitcoins.  Work to add to your stash!  Gamble some if that's your thing.  One of the nice things about bitcoin is that you can gamble microscopic amounts of money!
Only if you can accept the fact that you can lose everything, you can gamble. People either get addicted to gambling or just thought they can win more and bet more, losing all in the end. In the long run, you would most likely lose all.

For people it's good enough to earn only a month  Wink .
It can be troublesome if they need to switch campaign after they announced it will be discontinued. It does take sometime for them to find and register for a new campaign. IMO, it is a better idea for me to stick with one that would more likely last longer, given that Stunna have more than a thousand BTC and is constantly profiting.

smartphone sounds like a smarter plan to me than a laptop.. it's much smaller and easier to conceal.
You can't be as secure since they might have vulnerabilities for generating keypairs like what happened a year ago. It isn't 100% safe, there is Always a risk about this.

ive never heard anyone complain about it before, but the begging has gotten worse i should say.

I am hesitant to say more mos, but really all we need is better mods.

"better" isn't what we need, I believe that us mods do a pretty decent job with all the stuff we deal with in chat. Yes at the moment, we really only have 2 working mods, with myself spending almost 16+ hours a day in chat. It's one thing to mute someone who is begging/trolling, but muting these spam bots that come in every so often is impossible, plus they always mute themselves anyway. They spam 5 lines of chat, advertising another site, but by the time it's even seen they have already muted themselves. It's impossible to stop every single line of spam in chat, it just can't be done.

I have nothing against the mods at all.  Pokerjet was hysterical.  If we have ignore users can self mod a bit and it wont be so annoying.  The spam bots, as you note, get automuted, it's more the pathetic begging and god forbid if someone rains.  Then is it constant harping, and addy posting, and begging for the next 15 minutes.
I don't see a need for more mods, mods aren't paid so they won't be online forever. They can make wrong judgement at times and would attract negative attention. The best way to prevent this is to ignore them yourself since no one else would be against you since they can mute them themselves if they want to. The trust needed to be a mod must be huge, it isn't logic for Stunna to ask a person who is active but not trusted around the community to be a mod.

Nobody told me I need a server to mine, just have one sitting there and my first ASIC rigs on the way is what I mentioned.  Specifically the r-box newest gen... This is a question of operating a server as a host for other miners/investing, I guess, as well as running my own ASIC rigs, also about making your own pools but need server and such....  I am new, like I have mentioned but always learning:).  I appreciate any input/advise and thank you. Grin
You would need to code your front and backend. You would also need popularity to make people to mine at your pool, people usually prefer 0% fees pool, unless you can have 100% uptime and beautiful interface and better features than gnash.io, people wouldn't want to leave that pool. Coding requires effort so does support and anti ddos server cost.

So I am new to bitcoin/mining.  Waiting for my first as ASIC miner to come in mail.  Not sure if this right topic or spot to ask, but have been researching and found that having your own dedicated server is best if you where to mine?... Understanding equipment cost +/- $k, but in this case I am currently living with my fiancé and parents who had a call center business not work out Undecided and currently own a Dell PowerEdge 2900 with 48g ram 6T SATA just sitting there for past year and a half  Shocked(also cage and racks in storage all server room equip.).  I guess question is (we have fam member that know how to setup and what not), is this the better route to go? or other means (pools or personal)?...I appreciate any feedback. Thank you.
Hopefully you would get your ASIC, some of those either scams or delay preorders. Dedicated server is literally CPU mining, with at most 1-100MH/s it can barely even gain BTC. You can set up your own if you have a lot of hashrates, maybe 1-10PH to block within decent intervals so that you would not experience lower profits. For pooled mining, your work will be shared among others which means you are only paid for what share you submitted and not if you have strike lucky and solved a block.

I mean the pay isn't great, I personally think just 5 minutes of your day each day is worth posting for on other campaigns.
Take note that not much people may have the time now. They may have a busier life and may not have the time to post here. A post would probably take 3+ minutes to construct, it is better to do nothing and get paid than wasting your time.
8471  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cheap Android Phone as cold storage? on: July 30, 2014, 10:36:09 PM
I've got one of these that I never use and I've wondered if it was a safe option.  I think I'll give this a try because I don't use it since I've got my pc.  Is it an issue if you have used it online before, does it matter if I have used it online not in airplane mode  in the past?  Does that somehow affect the integrity of the security?
The only thing would be a risk is custom Roms. Some of them have backdoors but they cannot send data without internet so it can still be used as a cold storage. Always remove your SIM card first. Factory reset first then get the wallet then copy to somewhere safe and if you need to use it, factory reset it again.
8472  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cheap Android Phone as cold storage? on: July 30, 2014, 10:34:29 PM
because backup file (from 2 years) don't work with the new client updated in the phone (since 1 hour) + private key are encoded ... (BIP something like that)
You can extract the private key and create and sign a raw transaction then broadcast it. The format would most likely still be accepted by the community. It is a good idea to stay in touch within the bitcoin community for updates.
8473  Other / Meta / Re: How to see the original post? on: July 30, 2014, 03:28:02 PM
If a user opens a thread , makes a post and later edits it and if someone has not quoted the original post, is there a way to see the original as it was made at first?  Huh
Search engines and crawlers won't actually crawl threads that fast. If they edited within minutes of posting, there is a chance it may not be shown up. Although bitcointa.lk may have since they cache the thread content once in a while. You can always contact Theymos to recover deleted post.
8474  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cheap Android Phone as cold storage? on: July 30, 2014, 03:25:10 PM
If you have to send them, you would still have to connect to the internet. You will eventually connect the micro SD to a online computer one day and the data can be stolen. The microsd may have weak lifespan and gets damaged fast, there is always a risk about hardware dying.
8475  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Completely new Would like help on: July 30, 2014, 03:21:23 PM

Well they are OK, but 2 GH/s just isn't enough anymore. You're looking at 2 GH/s sold for 20 Pound, you'll want to find a miner that's about $1 per GH/s. So these miners are over 10 times as expensive as they should be.
These miners are usually for starters who want to experience BTC mining but not to ROI or profit for it. It uses less space and is portable. Miners like Antminer S3 would be a good idea to choose from although they may not ROI.

I just filled the form and updated my signature.
Where can I see cofirmation about that I'm in?
You cannot. It is one of the things that could be better, but oh well.

Wow, that is horrible.
Would suck if someone posts full month and then try to collect payment and Stunna just says "Seems like you failed when you filled that form, no payment for you, sorry".

I just filled the form and updated my signature.

If you have filled up the form correctly, you are in. Look at the currently enrolled users on the first post from time to time to check if you are enrolled.

List updated last time, 8 days ago... Undecided
I believe it is their responsibility to double check if it is correct. It isn't Stunna's fault as you should already have checked everything and ensure it is correct. We can't expect Stunna to update frequently since he needs time to verify everyone's profile info, he will have to reject those who have wrong info. This can take some time, it is better to do in bulks rather than 5 per day.

I might not get 50 posts this month so I can't get payout.
I have heard it is possible to carry my posts to next monht, rihgt?
Do I have to fill some form or send pm if I want to do so?
You don't need to do anything for that Wink If you have less than 50 posts in a month they get carried over to the next month, don't worry,

ask...
if this month i only made 40 post only , will i still get paid those 40 post ?
or i must complete 10 post next month then i will get paid ?

The minimum is 50post so yes, you will have to make the post count at least 50. You will get paid for those 40post+10post.

Unless your computer looks like this...



I would forget about mining. As pictured above, bitcoin mines are now reaching industrial scale.

Where is that picture coming from? Which mining farm does it show and what's their hash rate? Looks mezmerizing Cheesy
It is from a news which covered bitcoin. They actually went inside the mining datacenter. It is owned by megabigpower.com. They are located at north America and their hashrate should be about 6 PH.

this should be a sticky towards that newbie section thread w. list of faucets.
No use, not much newbies use them. Since their payouts are so low for newbies to even try it out. It would be a really complete of waste of time for newbies to use them, putting it as a stickier would be no use since we always tell them to avoid all of the faucets.
