  1. I really enjoyed looking through all your screen shots. So I decided to share a few of my own. First pic is proof that Starburst actually can pay off. I was playing through some no deposit signup FS, when suddenly three stars appeared. It actually startled me a little. First time I've ever won anything worth mentioning on Starburst freespins. The total bet was set to the lowest possible level, €0,1. So bet/win ratio was 229 Next two is from the same session on the slot Fu Dao Le. First it payed 77x €0.8 -- Then just four minutes later 100 x €0.8. And finally a pic from yesterday morning. I was trying out a new casino and was wagering through a small win on some no deposit free spins, when Avalon 2 surprised me with a mega payout of 433 x €0,6. Unfortunately the max cashout on those spins were €50
  2. There is no better way to introduce oneself than a forum post longer than most casinos bonus terms When I started writing the post, my intention was to keep it short. But since this topic is like a personal hobby of mine, I got "a little" carried away. I'm fascinated by how easy it is for anyone to spy on anyone in real time today. Just by using a few simple tools you could map out a persons whole life at any given moment. Most people don`t realize that they are leaving digital tracks all over the internet. Working as a spy, or locating criminal suspects has become so ***** easy. Almost everyone is carrying a cellphone today. Most of us is also constantly connected to Facebook and such. Your phone also has a camera, gps and a microphone. And those are controlled by an operating system developed by either Google, Apple or Microsoft. Remotely activating those tools through programmed "backdoors" in the software is pretty easy for them. Most ordinary people don`t need to use bitcoins as of yet. Most btc-transactions made today are probably the black market sales on darknet. And of course the usual money laundering. But more more and more online stores and services are starting to accept btc as payment. Transactions are pretty fast (ca 20 mins), and with the right precautions, the sender and receiver are unknown even to each other. So I do think well be seeing more bitcoin casinos popping up in the next few years. And in some countries, gambling online is strictly prohibited. For those people, btc is the best option. And since online casinos have grown to such a huge industry, many governments would love to be able to put taxes on casinos and players. For now the casinos have been able to hide in Malta or Curacao. But its just a matter of time before the greedy politicians manage to pass new international trade laws to get to them. So btc(or maybe a more secure cryptocurrency) will be the best choice in the future. I just hope that the casinos will create tools for those damn calculations. It shouldn't be to hard
  3. Well I think the blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies will become more common at casinos in a near future. The benefits are simply just to good to be ignored. Just being able to "hide" your transactions online, far away from anyone's sight. The governments cant charge taxes, fees or customs on cash transactions(or casino winnings) they don`t know about. Also being able to make international transfers in minutes, without having to pay a fortune in bank fees and exchange rates. I also believe that major corporations already are using this technology for these purposes. It is also believed that NSA and the CIA were the original creators of a predecessor to bitcoins. Possibly to anonymously transfer funds to their "overseas operatives". It is known that they at least researched the possibility. In 1996(years before bitcoins) a paper called "How to make a mint: The cryptography of anonymous electronic cash”, was published by three cryptologists employed by "National Security Agency Office of Information Security Research and Technology". And thanks to Edward Snowden we now know that the hash function that Bitcoin is predicated on, SHA-256, was developed by NSA. They can also be credited for the software and communications protocol behind TOR. Thanks to the hard work from dedicated "open source" software developers, Bitcoins are becoming much more available to us common people. You no longer have to be a IT-engineer to transfer funds. And its not necessary to memorize the personal 256bit encryption keys, to access and use your coins. Well unless your extremely paranoid or involved in some extremely top secret business. What you need is an account at one of many digital currency exchange services available online. This is were you exchange your money for bitcoins, and vice versa. Then you need a electronic "wallet", which is a software you download to your computer. It`s purpose is to store your cryptocurrency, and make the bitcoin transfers. Today there are many user friendly options available for free online. I can recommend the open source wallet called electrum. It can be configured to use both the common internet protocol, or the more anonymous and secure SOCKS5(TOR)-protocol. Easy to setup and comes with detailed setup instructions. It manages your encryption keys, takes care of the communication between you and the blockchain. Basically it makes bitcoins transfers just as easy as normal bank transfers. It also comes with a built in wallet-recovery-option. In case you forget your password, or suffer from hardware failure which results in your wallet being lost or destroyed. But gambling with bitcoins has one big con, as I see it. Constantly having to calculate the size of your bets and winnings against the constantly fluctuating bitcoin exchange rate . I´ve been following the rate for about 1,5 years. The lowest rate I´ve seen is was about a year ago. Then 1 BTC was rated at 800EUR. Highest rate was around mid november. 1BTC was about 16000EUR. Today one BTC costs 6492EUR. So if you would exchange 100EUR right now, and deposit at a bitcoin casino. Your casino balance would be 0.0154BTC. Or 15.4mBTC. A "normal" size bet of 0,5EUR would be 0.0008BTC(0,8mBTC). Doing these constant calculations while rolling, makes my head hurt. And takes some of the fun out of it. And I don`t think I am the only one with that opinion. So the bitcoin casino that would implement a tool that does that work "on the fly", would probably become very popular. Sorry for the wall of text. Got a little carried away - Best of luck, and have a nice day!
