9021  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: *** GHash.IO mining pool official page *** on: June 20, 2014, 08:15:42 AM
Other pools just need to step up their game and offer merged mining of atleast NMC for 0% fee.

As of today, gh.io is one of the best pools and therefore have the most miners.

p2pool is always nice too nad it supports the basic bitcoin idea, by further decentralizing the network.
P2pool would not get blocks as frequently as those bigger pools. Pools need a fee to ensure that it can pay for the web hosting and server hosting and even ddos protection. The reason Ghash.io is able to achieve 0% fees is probably because they trade GHS and includes a trading fees there and also they might charge a higher maintenance fees for those hosted Hash power. This can be costly and most smaller pools simply cannot afford this.

I really suggest everyone not to do martingale since it's not working, but if you do it, than try using empty prerolls. Make X number of bets with 0 bet ammount and than start your martingale normaly.

That won't change your odds such as your betting pattern won't change your strategy it will change your variance and your perception on your losses/winnings
Also, none of the bets influence each other. It is impossible for a sure win after a 19 lose streak, for example.

Sorry

I am really new to this, what other ways are there to cash out securely?

btc-e offered to cashout with paypal too.

I know that in the past they offered the option to withdraw to Paypal, but do they still do? I also remember the fees and minimum amount to withdraw were not very 'user friendly'.
The fees are 7% and minimum amount is 500USD, quite alright considering that it doesnt require verifications and lower trading fees.
9025  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Can someone help me understand what everyone is talking about? 51%? on: June 20, 2014, 04:59:39 AM
If you own 51% of the network, you can fork the network and reverse any transaction even when they have 1 confirmation. They can successfully attack the network since they own more than half of the network. They can prevent some transactions from getting confirmed and other pools from getting any blocks. Ghash.io had 51% of the network for some time.

Theoretically, one cannot bruteforce most of those email services since they have bruteforce protections. Also, they offer two factor authentication, it actually provides more security than just using a strong password. Most hackers actually use viruses to hack accounts instead of exploiting weak passwords.

There might be a few trading PayPal for BTC on localbitcoin. It is very risky since charge backs can happen. If possible find a trusted and reputatable member on BTCtalk and trade BTC for PayPal, no guarantees he will not charge back but it have a power chance. I think BTC-e offer this option too.

If you know how to code stuff or provide any type of services, you can post at the service section and see if people would hire your service, otherwise, if you know a lot about bitcoin and can post a lot of constructive stuff, join a signature campaign in a few weeks.

my hardware makes me a few like 0.00000200 a day but if I convert all of that to ghs I can make income of that to while btc will sit and do nothing. When I need to cash out I will trade back so I am secured. So holding is stupid I will let my income work for me then just sit in my wallet.
The price are not possible for ROI, unless you are so rich to throw away money to them, never expect to mine back the original amount.
9030  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: blockchain size Do we really need 20 gbs of data? on: June 19, 2014, 08:11:57 AM
You can run a light weight client. I believe developers are already trying to solve this problem of blockchain bloat. It isn't necessary for you to run a full node since if you don't leave your computer on for 24/7 and port forward port 8333, it does nothing to the blockchain.

9032  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Online Wallet Anyone? on: June 19, 2014, 05:09:33 AM
Unless you have 10 btc or more, you should not care which one you use. People are not stupid to hack your wallet for 0.2 BTC, keep that in mind. They will allways look for the large fish first.
Not all hackers are that kind, they would be happy to even find 0.01 of BTC. The hacker might never find one with 10BTC so those clever hackers would seize the chance to steal every bit of bitcoin, even if the reward is big. Most would rather take the chance to steal small amounts than waiting for a very long time/ never to steal a wallet with a whole BTC.
9033  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Martingale System on: June 19, 2014, 02:18:02 AM
is it really worth the try. i'm curious about it and want to try it on freebitco.in. I also found a script online.

I had tried martingale on freebitco.in and made a good profit to almost 100k satoshi in a day. The next day i played again and guess what, i ended up with zero balance.

Now i m giving up and quit.

I lost about 270k, they have fixed game, like every other casino, they wont let you leave them bankrupt.
There's a reason why they included the gambling part in their faucet and ads.
9034  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Need Help/Guide on Signature Campaigns. on: June 18, 2014, 04:01:11 PM
There are around one or two signatures for Jr member and Newbies.
Really? Will have to check them out and see how much they pay out. thanks

You can find almost everything you need to know about sig programs in this thread.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0
Wow thanks, that's a pretty comprehensive list. Think I'll wait til I'm a member before signing up for a sig, payment for noobs seems quite low (though I understand why).
The main objective is for newbies and Jr members to understand about bitcoin and contribute useful post after they become members and join a signature campaign. Since they spend some time learning more about it, they would be able to contribute more.
9035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does martingale really works? on: June 18, 2014, 03:58:54 PM
I did martingale at casino on roulette, i had suffered big loss when 17 black came out and one green in the middle somewhere. Since then i never do martingale again. I lost 250€ that night there and i was unable to bet more, otherwise i would bet more. My 250€ were gone by 14th black.


Maybe you should try next time the reverse martingale (or paroli): http://www.silveroakcasino.com/blog/online-casino/the-reverse-martingale-paroli-betting-strategy.html


It won't work, you cannot correctly predict that you will win on the next bet, you can win for a lot of bets and keep on doubling but there will be one bet which will lose and you might never be able to get back your loss.

As stated in the web link you need to set some kind a “walk away” goal (e.g. number of bets, monetary value, the length of playing time) which says when to quit. But anyway if you lose, you just lose your initial bet, not  huge amount money as in normal Martingale.

Martinfail will eventually bust your bank, lose streaks can be as long as 20, you cannot predict when you will lose and win. If you lose for the first few rounds, you will need some more rounds to recover that, you cannot predict if the remaining rounds will get you back in profit, you can still lose for the next few rounds and your profits will be even deeper into the negative.
9036  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: cryptsy did not add money to account after transfer on: June 18, 2014, 03:54:32 PM
Hello
My last 3 payments sent from Eligius did not arrived on my account in cryptsy. I contacted the customer support and they promised to respond within 24-72 hours but now it is a 7th day and no response.
The money were not added to account. Same happened to my friend.
Has anyone similar experience with cryptsy?
Any advice what to do when they keep silent?
Thanks

cryptsy support can very misleading and unreliable.  alot of people have issues dating back months with them and quick search here will confirm this.  they fix things on their own schedule and care little about their users.  Sad


It isn't cryptsy's fault. He mined Bitcoins directly into the address when the deposit page told him not to mine directly into the address.

So why hasn't the support informed him of that already then?  Its not about the reason for him missing coins, He is now posting here because he hasn't heard anything back from Cryptsy except the auto reply from their email bot.
Their support can and do leave issues hanging for months without updates or resolution regardless of who is at fault.  Out of all the exchanges their support is one of the worst imo.  Angry
Not sure, I believe those exchanges have a lot of support tickets to handle with. Some of them simply have no time to handle tickets that cannot be solved. It would take a really long time to manually process it, I believe it is placed at the lowest priority.

9038  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Safest wallet on: June 18, 2014, 01:27:31 PM
I've only used the main bitcoin qt and electrum, as far as I know they are the safest though I'm no expert.
If you consider them as hot wallet, small amounts, then probably yes if you don't install any virus. If not, cold storage is the safest, generate it on a offline LINUX computer.

Singapore's internet is really cheap, I know of a 500mbps contract bundle with a lot of things and 6months free for $70.

BTW is JD affiliated with SwC?

There is a Seals affiliate link in a banner ad at the top of JD.

I like SwC.

But no.

On your site it looks like a lot of really small bets come in. Are those bots or is it actual people betting? I watched for about 10 mins and only saw a couple reasonable sized bets.
I think its partly bot and partly actual people, most people use bot to automate betting at small amounts. And some other people want to do it manually.

JD would benefit from having an auto betting system
Theoretically, yes. But it would only create spams from users betting dust.

You don't see bet of 1BTC every minute but big gamblers are on JD on a daily basis, extreme martingale players and whales play on JD

Dust betting bring more revenue than it cost in band switch so it is profitable
Yes, it would induce more dust bet, slowing the server down. Most big players wouldn't want to use the auto bet.
