Considering every goverment on the planet now has the source code it's quite obvious the key to the city. Hell, just think what would happen "when" they run across those dice games the NOC engineers are now officially on the prowl for considering the secrete is now out of the "darkhat". Hell, shouldn't take long now with spycams and mugshot photos to match up things too.
BTW, That Calais tag line of yours reminds me of the bookmaker out of KY that use to violate his disable aunt. Needless to say "KY" brings a whole new meaning to the State of Kentucky, which happens to be where Billy Walters is from now doesn't it. At least that's what Mr.Eric tells me and we ALL know who that is now don't we coach

I can answer pretty much any BTC-related question you may have. Don't listen to BBD, he's a tool.

Sure. Although I'd stay away from Gox until the withdraw issues are ironed out. They've been having USD problems for a little while now. You can still use them to store your stash if you are constantly going to be going from BTC to USD to BTC, but when it comes time to withdraw, I'd use a different exchange Originally Posted by bookie
A good exchange for Americans is Coinbase. It's well capitalized and based in San Francisco.

You can also use localbitcoins if you are dealing with smaller amounts or want to keep it off the books, but that's more of a pain in the butt.

Danny boy you really have ZERO clue as to how btc functions do you??
They have the source code. BIG DEAL...
Just a shame you fail to inform readers that every coin is exponentially more difficult to decrypt than the last...
Love how your talking about the concept of quantum cryptography several years before it even exists
Scaremonger dan at it again. Does this guy have no shame??

the big problem of bitcoin, what if they sudden stop this.... or hack by hacker... manipulate by the creator or a group... its like pyramid scam... the loser will be the end user or customer... boom... you lose money if you have it that time... maybe thats why sbr team dont want to rate books using this kind of currency...
-
10-22-13 07:19 PM #16
The reason why I havent tried bitcoin is because. A) I need to convert cash to Bitcoin B) I am exposed to currency movements C) I have to worry about being able to cash out of the book and being able to convert this all back to cash.
There are just too many hoops to jump through. I would jump through those hoops if I felt that it was worth it but there are too many unknowns for me to take the plunge. I would love for someone to convince me otherwise however everyone I talk to seems to say that I am right.

Here's a good article:

Although it is nothing like a pyramid scam, I do agree that the potential for a catastrophic loss of capital is very real. If you like the idea of Bitcoin, then it's your decision on how much you are willing to invest in it. Like I mentioned in other posts, if your goal is only to gamble with it, you can alleviate most of this risk by keeping your funds in USD at the exchanges. Originally Posted by bettingstation
As far as SBR is concerned, I personally think that they think/thought of it as a passing fad. I really hope they turn their act around and convince some of their books to make the switch. An anonymous currency with tiny transaction fees has the potential to save this industry. Don't forget that we posters are not SBR's customers, the advertising books are. We posters are the product that SBR sells to the books. If the books realize the BTC is the way to go, SBR will soon follow.
A) It's easier than sending an em-gee to Costa Rica Originally Posted by playz
B) Very true. If you have no desire to be exposed, then you can protect yourself from it in the manner I described above, but if you are a real big money gambler, then the risk may not be worth it. I'm arguing more for the recreational gambler.
C) Cashing out of the book is nearly instant. Converting it back to cash and into your bank account is as easy as selling a stock with your online brokerage.
Most of my arguments on this forum for Bitcoin are aimed at the American recreational bettor. If you are American, then you already jump through plenty of hoops and Bitcoin will help streamline your game. If you are not American, then you already have plenty of solid outs and I don't have a good argument as to why you should use Bitcoin for gambling.Points Awarded:

As far as gambling, this is true. As far as social impact, this isn't true, but that discussion isn't SBR subject matter. Originally Posted by Hareeba!

no that isnt the case, bitcoin is a good way to make a killing, if you were smart you would have bought bitcoins at a low price and sold them now or when they hit over 200 dollars.

It seems kind of weird to me that they boast about the 6 million capital raised, but don't offer a clear explanation of how to use their services, what the fees are, if there are limits to the amount of BTC that can be bought and sold, etc. Is anybody currently using that site who could offer a users review?

(USA based bettors)
Here is what you can do with a bitcoin book that the traditional books cannot touch.
15 mins before the game starts, I can deposit $2000 into a bitbook and bet that game without any worries.
After the games wager has been graded and if it won--I can withdraw back to my bitcoin wallet without any problems.
Anyone arguing against bitcoin books are one of the following:
1. a player who has access to Pinny. USA players do not so that argument is moot.
2. a shill for one of the other traditional books.
3. a person who is stupid.
IF you are USA based then you have to be using bitcoin books.
Bitcoin books do not hassle you with moving bitcoins in or out.
Bitcoin books do charge large fees for withdrawing. What does a W. U./M. G. payout of $800 cost at 5 dimes or bookmaker...lol.
Bitcoin books do not specify your free withdrawal at 9AM-1PM monday and if you are 10 mins late then you have to wait until next week.Points Awarded:

The only bitcoin book that interested me is btcsportsmatch.com. Because you get good odds if not better than betmaker used to be. The issue here is that you can't bet in increments and with bitcoin constantly changing in value I would have to hedge bitcoin and then figure out how much bitcoin is worth when arbing. the odds are there but there is also risk of the book going down. So it's risk on top of risk. Do any of the bitcoin books offer bonuses?

Playz,
Betmaker you would get best odds in the history of mankind because sometimes the market maker putting the odds out would have them reversed. So i think it would be impossible to get better odds than betmaker ! Rest in peace Betmaker because i still have sweet dreams about ya !
