Please email me at leokingm90@gmail.com if you have any issues.
I can't respond to PMs from my main acc.

You need to halt for sometime buddy! Until your main account gets unbanned after the stipulated period, you must not cross-post on your thread with your newly made alt account. This might result in getting your banned period increased! My advice (for your own good) would be to stop selling for a while until you get unbanned. And in the meantime, you may create a topic (don't bump that post much) with your alt in meta section, making a polite request for an unban.

--SNIP--

I send you 0.003 BTC on your wallet for playing at my betting address.

--SNIP--

1. Do you think it is best to put "send 0.001 BTC to" instead of "btc address"?

2. For "ended november 26 at 00:00" put " ended november 26 at midnight (0 UTC)"

1. Yes, it would be better because unlike me anyone might think of that as his own BTC address for default deposits.

2. I think that would end in December 3 according to the countdown. So you might change it like this "Will End In (Input the last date here) at 00:00 UTC".

And, thanks for the giveaway mate. I'll definitely try out after the funds get confirmed. Smiley

Can I get a silver wallet (Design 3) in exchange with one Ravenbit, one CryptoImperator and one Denarium coins? Since I have lost tastes in them Tongue I no longer want them anyways. Also Mitchełł loves collecting coins, so I assume it'll be a win-win outcome. Smiley
724  Economy / Gambling / Re: New raffle site http://yumicoin.com on: November 26, 2015, 06:07:16 AM
Since the site is totally new, you should conduct some giveaways for early participants in order to participate and see how it works. Also you need to conduct signature campaigns to get more people involved on your site. (for long sustenance) BTW, the site is clean and looks legit though. Smiley

Edit: Oops! I didn't notice that you had already conducted the giveaway. But I can't see any "Register" button on your site. So, which address should I provide here?

1. 1GHpVMTdK1BvMMc2RhSWfYiYfLkCyBAg8B (betting address on your site)

2. 1NoTajKJT6gRLEPkHwcb1EB4cNyDrmuhii (my personal wallet)




^^ Here's another typo I found: Look at the date (it said this bet was ended on 26th November) and look at the "Ends in" countdown. One might get confused with this.

Thanks for your giveaway though. Smiley

It would be great if you add a custom bet feature on Power Plinko so that anyone can input their own prize multipliers according to a fixed RTP percentage. (say for example, 98.30%)

Moreover, it would be better if I can maximize the play area of the Horse Racing game to full screen so that I can predict the winner in much quicker ways.

Hope you implement them soon. Smiley

727  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin without Altcoin ? on: November 25, 2015, 09:57:25 PM
Bitcoin won't get affected at all. Try to recapitulate those days when there was only one cryptocurrency ~ "Bitcoin" Wink It seems that altcoins are exploding. Almost every other day you hear about a new coin that just came out which is “the best coin ever!!!“. Even altcoin forums don't care if 5 to 10% of all currently traded altcoins are de-listed in one day.  Therefore, this whole "altcoin" thing you're supposed to be talking about is evaporating as we speak and you can't be bothered to take notice.

Re: your point, obviously when a manufacturer says "X is a customer of ours", then X actually mining is likely, but you missed out this from your 101 quote:

Quote
(risk of fractional reserve mining)

and that's almost impossible to disprove for any cloudminer.


Yes I missed it out seeing the updated list there (updated by Indianacoin). But in accordance to the risk of fractional mining stated below;

4) Open ended IPO / fractional reverse mining risk.
Unless the cloud mining is operated by the asic vendor himself, you can not sell an unlimited amount of hashrate. Hardware takes (usually a long) time to order, arrive and deploy. Any company that doesn't limit sales or make public how much hashrate they sold vs what they have (provably) deployed should be considered  suspicious.

_______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________

I think Genesis Mining did limit sales on 1 year SHA-256 mining contract and x11 mining contract some days earlier as I noticed a "Sold-Out" note while I tried to buy 5 MH/s of x11 contract. So, I think the risk of fractional reserve mining is being ruled out as per the updated list.

Nice gesture from your side, but i would advise of adding the rule that "Participants may not advertise similar or competing gambling related sites while enrolled in this campaign"
Reason is that it would be both counter productive and contradictory if someone would advertise two gambling related sites, but it's your call..

I think that would be a strict call! Since they haven't any avatar ready as of now, every campaign members cannot just waste that space for nothing!


Another thing (in regards to gambing section posts); "At least 30% of the posts should be made on the Gambling section. "
Imagine scenario:
person A posts 100 posts , where 30 of them are in gambling section (30%) - everything good , person A is eligible for payout.
person B posts 300 posts, where 60 of them are in gambling section (20%) - person B isn't eligible for payout due to not following the rule.. ?

No your interpretation is quite wrong. Both will get paid according to 100 posts (maximum post count). Whether one post 1000 posts at a time, only his initial 100 posts will be considered for payment. Also the latter one will get double payment if 300 posts become maximum among all other members participating.
730  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam alert : Do NOT INVEST in Genesis Mining on: November 25, 2015, 07:08:04 PM
According to Cloudmining 101 thread I found this information about Genesis Mining:

Code:
genesis-mining.com    1+2+7              => 3/7 = Probably legit.


1) No public mining address / no user selectable pool.
A cloud mining company that won't let you direct the hashrate to your pool of choosing and can't prove its actually mining bitcoins itself, is very likely a scam. There is no reason to hide mining address or not sign blocks. None!

2) No endorsement from any ASIC vendor.
ASIC vendors will gladly make a simple post to show the company in question is a significant customer of theirs. Its free advertisement for them and it helps their customer grow their business, so there is absolutely no reason they wouldn't. If a (cloud) mining company cant get any ASIC vendor to post such endorsement, you should assume they don't have any hardware to mine with.

7) No exit strategy.
If you can't sell your position, you can't get your money out. That's the ideal case for a ponzi and allows it to run for a  long time.

_______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________

BTW, can anyone confirm the second factor? I think Spondoolies Tech provided them with the ASIC miners right?
731  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: November 25, 2015, 06:48:39 PM
There's no such strategy on luck based games like Dice and Roulette. You simply have to throw in huge chunks of Bitcoins in order to win very little as "house edge" typically sets every bet's fate. If you want to play some strategy based games then my advice would be to head on to some reputed sites like Betcoin.ag and gamble strategically on Blackjack, Baccarat or Poker games. Now, why I mentioned Betcoin.ag specifically because as you play here your profile level will step up and you'll achieve several advantages like gaining some percentages of "Rakeback", "Lossback" and "Betback" to enhance your winning streak.

732  Other / Off-topic / Re: DO YOU HAVE 1 BITCOIN? on: November 25, 2015, 06:38:27 PM
I had around 4 BTC divided and stored into 4 of my paper wallets. But nowadays, I invest them in parts to several cloud mining and investment programs and wait for them to roll back to my wallets alongwith some interests. At least it's better than stacking them inside cold storage without gaining anything.
733  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most Profitable Altcoins to Exchange to BTC? on: November 25, 2015, 06:35:39 PM
People are telling me to mine altcoins, start with ones that are easy to mine and exchange them for BTC. Any recommendations? thanks.

If you have some old SHA-256 miners lying around lately, and having a minimum hashrate of around 450 GH/sec (for example : Antminer S3) then you can pretty much mine these following coins having total hashrate as :

      COINS                              TOTAL HASHRATE
1. Mazacoin                               24.88 TH/sec
2. Takcoin                                   7.00 TH/sec
3. Curecoin                                14.97 TH/sec
4. Universal currency                    1.71 TH/sec
5. Joulecoin                                 2.43 TH/sec
6. Zetacoin                                  4.01 TH/sec

Since these coins are not so popular as Bitcoin (having total hashrate of 403.63 PH/sec), you can pretty much secure their blockchains with your spare miners that you are about to throw out!

But if you don't have a miner and you want to either use your CPU or GPU power then don't start mining any SHA-256 coins at all because you will have negative profit if you add your electricity bills into account! Then the best bet would be to try out Script, Neo Script, x11, x13, Script-N or Groestl algorithms because they are still less profitable for mining on CPU or GPU rigs. I'm not going in details about their hashrates which you can find it here.

Lastly, mining coins of different algorithms other than SHA-256 can be troublesome at times and there's no such definitive guidelines for beginners to start mining using a particular software. Thus, don't waste your time much on researching if you are already having a mindset for mining altcoins.
734  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trojan Wallet stealer be careful on: November 25, 2015, 06:31:08 PM
It would be best if you use trusted & reputable online wallets like xapo, green address or coinbase and stop worrying about your bits getting stolen! This is because those sites are highly secured and can't be hacked so easily! (thinking of hacking them is like planning to hack Google's database Tongue ) Moreover they store your bitcoins in cold wallets where hackers will never be able to reach! And did I forget mentioning that they are free and doesn't take any extra transaction or yearly account fees ?

Still, if you aren't able to fully trust them, then head on to http://bitaddress.org and create more than one paper wallets according to your needs (if you are paranoid, then download their website package from GitHub and create offline)

I think that should be enough not to worry about your wallet.dat getting compromised again.

And if you want to run bitcoin nodes and secure the blockchain by installing Bitcoin core wallet, then consider installing the best Antivirus programs like Norton 360 for extra safety.
735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you play loteries ,did you won something on: November 25, 2015, 06:26:08 PM
Playing lottery is a personal choice, like all forms of gambling. If you want to win the lottery, the only way I know is to play the lottery. Many statisticians and a non-statisticians get involved in lotteries. If you haven't already, you'll hear lotteries called "a tax on the stupid" most probably by the non-statisticians. Tongue

But the real horror comes when statisticians/people who say they're statisticians, claim to have come up with a system to beat the lottery. If you've ever heard of "lottery wheeling", then there's a chance that you can increase your odds of winning the lottery by using just a few simple tricks. (Spoiler alert: unless one of those steps is, "fixing the lottery numbers," you're doomed to fail.)

Some of these systems sound really good in theory, and people use statistics to back them up. For example, if you analyze all the past winners of the lottery, the sum of the numbers follows a normal distribution. That means, if Powerball numbers range from 1 to 59, you should make sure you pick 5 numbers with a sum around 150, since that sum is more likely to show up (not counting the Powerball number, of course). The normal distribution of Powerball sums shows a very clear peak around 150. But the problem with this is, it has no bearing on the likelihood of your exact numbers being picked. Think of it like being asked to pick the exact roll of two dice. A sum of seven is most likely since there are more combinations that sum to seven, but if I pick a 1 and a 6, I have no better odds than if I pick a 1 and a 2, even though 1 and 6 sum to seven.

So while it's a great theory, it ultimately ends up being worthless. It won't help you win the Powerball to pick numbers that sum to 150 or so. There are plenty of other ways to increase your winning chances :

1. Always pick the numbers yourself rather than letting the machine do it (absolutely no gain in odds).

2. Never pick the same numbers twice (again, no gain in odds).

3. Joining a lottery pool (which allows you to buy more tickets at less monetary risk to yourself but doesn't increase the odds of winning on any particular ticket).

4. Some official online lottery agents, like www.netlotto.com.au , offer syndicate play, which enables you to get together with friends, family or people from all over the world, lowering the cost, but increasing you chances by purchasing more games than you would be able to on your own.

I think every one of us dream about being able to do things beyond our current financial possibilities. Lottery is a "feasible" way to make those dreams come true ("someone" eventually wins). I don't buy lottery tickets expecting to get my money back, I buy the feeling that there is a possibility of seeing my dreams come true, therefore for a week or so I can dream about everything I would do more vividly and hopefully, which is kind of enjoyable in its own right.

It would be great if Zoho starts accepting bitcoins as a payment method. Moreover all digital services like domain providing and hosting services should start accepting bitcoins. I have already contacted Bluehost's and Hostgator's support team, so let's wait for their replies.

BTW, I personally don't like Zoho's hosting service as I experienced more downtime issues! Although I don't know about their Email service.
737  Economy / Economics / Re: Why not just print dollars? on: November 25, 2015, 06:18:05 PM
No, the fiat economy doesn't work that way.

Suppose you have a cake. You hand out tickets to people so they can each get a piece. If you hand out a thousand tickets, either you're going to have to slice the pieces very, very thin, or a lot of people are just going to have worthless tickets. If you hand out just two, each person can have quite a bit of cake. The value of the tickets, then, depends a lot on how many you hand out.

That's basically what money is. It's a promise to pay from the government. You get the money and you can trade it with people in that country for stuff. And just like with the cake, if suddenly tons of people have money, either the money ends up being worth very little or most of the people with money get nothing for it.

A good example of this from history was Germany in 1922. Faced with a sagging economy and forced to pay massive debts as reparations for World War I, the government started printing money as fast as they could to meet these demands. Paper mills and printing presses were LITERALLY running as fast as they could night and day. Over a period of six months or so, the value of the German mark dropped 3.7 MILLION times! What you could once buy for a mark now cost four million marks. People literally lugged around suitcases full of money to pay bills. Absolutely crazy stuff!
738  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN IS BETTER THAN WESTERN UNION ? on: November 25, 2015, 06:01:17 PM
It's a great controversial topic where one can side with Bitcoin while the others can side with Western Union.

Whilst Bitcoin certainly has the rails to make payments better through it's decentralized way of confirming a transaction, WU/Money Gram on the other hand, has the network effect which makes it very difficult to penetrate at the moment.

Bitcoin buying/selling and remitting via Bitcoins is so minuscule right now, it doesn't even show up as a blip on the US$ 500 Billion per annum money transfer market.

From a transaction volume point of view, Bitcoin is almost a zero entity.

For Bitcoin to become more mainstream in remittance and to show up as a player, it would have to make a mark, even at 0.5% - this would amount to US$ 2.5 Billion worth of remittance transactions per year. Bitcoin is nowhere close to this number.

Legal & Regulatory issues aside, which are major issues in my opinion, the issue of on-boarding/off-boarding seems to be another important issue. While bitcoins may be sent across instantly the buying/selling onto Fiat and settlement across the border would still use SWIFT and this is a bottleneck.

Western Union and Money Gram are not complacent. They have a very unique perspective and insight towards remittances (in fact, I would argue they perhaps have the best data set on remittances than anyone else). WU/MG will implement whatever needs to be implemented to make their transactions go faster and cheaper, be it in Bitcoin, Ripple, their own proprietary payment protocol, etc.

For the time being, they are very comfortable where they are than where bitcoin is at the moment.
