Re: Updated Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns

Dicebitco.in (Thread)
Miscellaneous: Site is going through a major reputation crisis. Roughly 6,000 BTC has been withdrawn from the bankroll in the last 12 hours. There are accusations of cheating both users (gamblers) and investors. I would suggest adding an asterisk to the campaign and editing the description to reflect the credibility issues. Also can you please confirm that 5 BTC is still being held in escrow (preferably by providing the address funds are being held in).

The signature program took suspicious moves, in my opinion. They made separate transaction for each user, and released no info about the total amount paid, then closed their signature thread, so no discussion can take place about the signature program anymore, including about the reputation crisis that is happening.

At least they have escrow, but I guess might suffice to pay everyone.

What is going on with dicebitco.in?  The sig thread is locked, or else I can't find the proper one.  But I don't see any other gripe or scam thread started anywhere.  Where's the evidence and discussion on this one?

They paid out ~12 btc last month (per this post). They need a little more then 18 BTC if they are able to pay out 200 posts for all 100 participants (is it 18 based on 20 full members and 80 senior members, but some people have dropped and there are a few hero members enrolled).

Okay, I read up on that thread (thanks!) and it looks to me like the sig campaign hasn't been the issue, they're having problems with a possible hack or security breach and their bankroll.  Seems premature to put the sig campaign * up unless they actually missed a payday already.

That is exactly my reasoning. This is a "Signature overview"-topic and not a "Gambling overview"-topic, so I won't be adding an asterisk on their campaign yet. I have no reason to believe that they won't pay. This is, of course, my current opinion. It can change in the future.

I can confirm that I still hold those funds. You can check the signed message here.

The address in question has a 0 balance (see here. It looks like .05 was transferred to one address (likely your personal address to claim the tip) and 4.9998 was sent to 1MuCGwYWCDJCQJy5aoJaGSDDriRt1F2BPm on 3/9/14 via TX 140688a73d67f4bbaf59c117c3df67f115984d40e70ba469f4f9c76932648082

@bitcoininformation do you pay the enrolled users with the escrow funds ?  And also @dooglus ( I remember he has got ~10 btc escrow ).

Ah fuck. It should be in there, but I already know what happened. I have been using the new Electrum version (instead of the old 1.8.1) and there that address wasn't frozen (for some reason the new version didn't see it). I will send the 5BTC back to that address. Sorry for this. The 0.05BTC was indeed a tip for my service.

EDIT: The 5BTC has been send back to proof that I still have it. a5bcaa2da1c85c0b1649b36741dd0bf4fc61077bccd532a8b5a0a25d7ec25746

I do not. The 5BTC will only be used if DiceBitco.in doesn't pay its signatuer campaing participants. Also, Dooglus has 5BTC just like me.

So how does someone get involved in this?

I have my legendary status who and how do I signup to advertise services/companies as such ?

Thanks!

It usually makes sense to wait for a while to see your ideal campaign. Just check 'Services' section regularly.

I think Primedice had the highest payout for Legends but is currently closed. Just check the op of this thread to find the best one that is open. New ones come and go regularly though so you have to be quick.

Also dicebitco.in   has the highest payout for the legendary rank , and it is not closed ( for these type of rank ).

I read they had some trouble with their site recently, though.

I think the sig. campaign is not closed , does he ( @bbit ) send him a pm  ?  The problem with the site  "dicebitco.in" doesn't affect the signature campaing ( because  there are 2 escrows  with the "security" fund) .
