Just late enough to get Bitcoin at a discounted price. Too many people got into BTC investing at the wrong time (during the peak in December), but you have the opportunity to get it cheaper than many people.
Hello everyone,
I am one of the members involved in BitcoinJackpot.global. Just wanted to introduce our new affiliate program to promote our raffle. We will pay you $5 USD for each ticket sale. For example, if you send 5000 paid sales, your payment would be $25,000 USD. Also, if those same customers buy again in future, you'll get another $2 USD per sale for doing nothing. We're trying to bring some fun into the crypto community and we really hope to work with you.
If you are interested, our website is www.bitcoinjackpot.global and the affiliate sign up is in the footer. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks.

Hey everyone!
I'm CryptoJoshua from Bitcoin Jackpot and we'd like to partner with you. Bitcoin Jackpot is building what we hope to be the world's best crypto raffle. Promote our raffle tickets and receive a generous recurring commission. Actually you might make more commissions with us than with other programs.
We will pay you $5 USD for each ticket sale. For example if you send 5,000 paid sales, your payment would be $25,000 USD. Then if those same customers buy again in future raffles you'll get another $2 USD per sale for doing nothing.
We're trying to bring some fun into the crypto community and I really hope to work with you.
Here's our website for you to check out: www.bitcoinjackpot.global and the the affiliate sign up is in the footer.
Let's work together,

hi. is the price $5 higher if someone buys from affiliate link? no one will buy from my link if i charge $25 and you charge $20 directly.
Hey newfan,
The price of each ticket would be $20 regardless of whether someone buys directly or through the affiliate link. If someone uses your link, there is a 365-day cookie duration to provide you commission if they buy within that time frame. So, in the future, even if they don't go through your link again and buy a ticket, cookies would ensure that you would get your commission. Also, if they have made a purchase once as a result of your effort, you would get recurring commission if the same people buy again in the future (even if you do nothing) and this is not affected by the 365-day duration. If you have any more questions, let me know. Thanks.

Come on guys, this is clearly a scam.
They sort of messed up with this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2874667.msg29545770#msg29545770
If you want to be a scammer, try not to make it that obvious.

Hey Moon!
The only people who are part of our team are listed on our main page at bitcoinjackpot.global, so whoever made that post is not on our team. Every team member's Bitcointalk or Reddit profiles are linked on our site as well. I, myself, am part of the Bitcoin Jackpot team, so if you have any concerns, please let me know.

CryptoJoshua
LOL at your website. I don't see any Bitcointalk or Reddit profiles.
After watching these videos, I am 100% sold

How much did you pay these people to record a 10 second video clip?
The BitcoinTalk and Reddit profiles are listed under my profile picture, and 2 other members. Take a closer look.
These teens are our interns as described on their bios and actually we've known each other for years; they will all be at the live draw. They are helping with various other tasks instead of being active on forums, which is why they don't have Bitcointalk or Reddit profiles.
So right now, it's a working business model vs escrow which isn't used in raffles that I know of. Keep in mind that Satoshi Dice and other big risk formats don't have escrow too. None of the big bitcoin casinos have that (correct me if I am wrong).
If your site is already trusted from this community then no need have an escrow and that part I completely agree. But do you think your site and you trusted members on this forum?
Whatever is your explanation for not using escrow investments are better compared to investing on new site.
From my research on other raffles, like Princess Margaret Lotto for example, when they get let's say 10% of the revenue in their bank, they begin to spend it on advertising and operating costs.
If you start using your 10% and if you don't reach your target then what happens to the funds you already raised?
I agree with your suggestion about investing on our site; we have planned to do this. But, what do you mean we start using 10% and we don't reach target? Do you mean, we don't sell all our tickets? Or do you mean, we fail to raise $1.2M because we over spent on operating costs?
It is provably fair,
I'm out, and good luck for the site owner to find real buyers and good luck for the real buyers if they trust this site.
We have plans to upgrade the site; thanks for the suggestion.
It is provably fair,
How could you say it is provably fair if there is no ways to verify the draw, you will use random.org only with a live streaming draw. That's not a provably fair system as long as I understand. Why? Live streaming can be faked as well as the draw by random.org
Come on, offering such big prize with not cheap ticket should have a better process on the drawing.
Hey Bitinity,
We are going to let a third party do the draw. We are planning to get the people from random.org themselves (if possible, or someone well known) to do the draw, but we will not do the draw ourselves. Would you rather have the people who made the raffle come up with a process to draw (more chances of manipulating the draw) instead of a completely unrelated third party (that is also well established)? Do you think random.org is not fair in choosing its random numbers? If you have concerns about how random.org chooses random numbers, check out their FAQ page as they have tons of information. Thanks.

CryptoEbe
Hey Oilacris,
Alright, what is your suggestion to do the draw? We thought using random.org, which uses atmospheric noise to generate truly random numbers would be fair enough; the atmosphere also cannot be hacked, but we may have dropped the ball here. When we get people from random.org to do the draw, they also release the results on their site with a timestamp. Someone suggested https://www.randompicker.com/, which also seems to be a good site, but definitely not as established as random.org; what are you thoughts on that?

CryptoEbe
It is very great commission, but once again there is no guarantee that affiliate users will get the payment as there is no escrow. To be honest $5 for every 1 ticket ($20) is just too good to be true IMO. It is very hard to promote a new site especially a lottery/raffle site with no good drawing system and escrow for the first time. I doubt people will start to promote your site to earn $5 per ticket bought by their referrals because of the mentioned reasons.
Hey Panjul,
I thought you wanted us to take a smaller percent from the prize pool, so we decided to share the profits with our partners, but seems like you are still not happy if we increase rewards via this affiliate program. Regarding your escrow comment, let me address that first. We started this raffle just this month, and decisions like this takes time; so this is currently still in discussion among our team. In my opinion (not my team decision), I am not for escrow idea because of the following reasons.
From my research on other raffles, like Princess Margaret Lotto for example, when they get let's say 10% of the revenue in their bank, they begin to spend it on advertising and operating costs. So right now, it's a working business model vs escrow which isn't used in raffles that I know of. Keep in mind that Satoshi Dice and other big risk formats don't have escrow too. None of the big bitcoin casinos have that (correct me if I am wrong). Moreover, you need to be wary even if someone uses escrow because there are scams there too (https://blockonomi.com/erc-20-token-guide/#Watch_Out_Scammers_Can_Make_ERC-20_Tokens_Too). Also, what if our escrow provider goes under and our funds are tied up? Then all our efforts would be ruined as well because of someone else.
Also, since this is round 1, we are using most of our profits to promote our raffle. For example, you already know about our affiliate program and our banner advertisements in various sites; you also know about our free tickets given out initially and we are also planning to have multiple smaller draws along the way, so our overhead cost is huge for round 1 Another problem with the crypto world, since we are accepting only crypto payments, what if we have our escrow funds in BTC, but BTC crashes and we have to pay $1,200,000 USD in prizes? I doubt escrow would give us the flexibility to transfer a portion to stable fiat money and to use our revenue towards promotions. Once again, this is only my personal opinion and this does not reflect a final decision from my team as we are still debating on using an escrow.
And now, to address your concerns about our drawing process. We are going to let a third party do the draw. We are planning to get the people from random.org themselves (if possible, or someone well known) to do the draw, but we will not do the draw ourselves. Would you rather have the people who made the raffle come up with a process to draw (more chances of manipulating the draw) instead of a completely unrelated third party (that is also well established)?

If you don't use an escrow then no one is going to believe what you're saying here because if you close the site after some time then whoever promoted your site to bring referrals also will be part of this scam. So I don't want to promote your site for those small bucks.
You better make a fast decision to use an escrow to secure your funds to get more buyers.
Hey Miner,
Just as with any feedback that we get from others, we need to weigh the pros and cons before implementing it. We started this raffle just this month, and decisions like this takes time; so this is currently still in discussion among our team.

May I ask who is holding the funds? I guess the goal is to raise more money then is being given away, which is quite a lot for a new service.
Using a multisig wallet with an escrow that needs to sign off would give a lot more trust I guess.

CryptoEbe - May I know why you ignored the above question to answer?
It is a valid question and it is quite a huge amount why can't you choose some trusted members as an escrow for the funds? If you do that then you may find many real ticket buyers otherwise you need to struggle even to sell free tickets because I don't want to waste my ticket to register an account and to claim that free ticket when I'm not confident about your system.
Hey Miner,
It was addressed in my response to Norris towards the end of the paragraph. You may have missed it.

Hey Norris,
Yes, you're right. Our goal is to raise more money than is being given away. The majority is paid out to prize winners; the rest goes into marketing (higher for round 1 because we are just gaining publicity), merchant fees, accounting, etc. to maintain the service and website. We also end up with a profit on which we pay income tax, and also allocate a portion of it to fund crypto related science (more info on this in the FAQ section). We are not currently using an escrow, but it does sound like a good idea and might consider it in the future. Thanks, and if you have any questions or feedback, don't hesitate to reach back.

And to add to CryptoJoshua, our members were only aware of this thread like 3 days back, so we only started responding recently here. This thread was created much earlier by one of our fans, so it looks like someone was really excited in promoting us that they went through that step.
How could i believe this site ?. There is no authentication. It looks fear to me.
Well, I hope it was not our members' photos on our website that scared you
haha the struggle to sell FREE ticket. people are scared of winning the raffle with a free ticket? i will gladly take free chance XD
Yes, it's definitely a challenge because we are brand new, but we know this is a phase that all start-ups go through and our team is ready for this challenge. And good luck with your ticket
Good time to buy know now or good to wait ?
Both actually, now that the price of Bitcoin pretty damn hard, its time for you to buy as much as you can. Because there's a hurricane coming, I can feel. I'm also starting to think that, this was all part of the plan. Well, who knows?
After buying from the current price, I think that's a good time now to HODL.
No, it's probably the last Black Friday sale this year to get Bitcoin at discounted prices
Exactly, people always starts to panic when this happens. They don't understand that this is also a good time. Well for those people that have invested when the price of Bitcoin was way up, don't worry it will go up back soon.
Yeah, people don't realize that everytime they sell something, there is someone on the other side of the transaction who is buying it for the opposite reason as the seller.
Hey, thanks! Just got a few tickets, wish me luck!
Good luck

If you want to see your lottery works:
1. Use an escrow for the first time draw.
2. Use a provably fair system for the drawing
3. Reduce the ticket numbers and ticket price, no need to offer such big prize but it needs to take so long time to do the draw.
4. Use a fixed time duration for the lottery, lets say weekly or monthly. Then do draw no matter how many tickets sold.
5. Take small percent of the prizepool only.
If you keep the way as what you want with 100k tickets and wont draw till all tickets sold, there will no draws happen till the end of your site.
Of course it is just suggestion, take it or leave it.

Hey Panjul,
Another member of BitcoinJackpot here. Like CryptoJoshua mentioned above, we will keep escrow under consideration. Regarding your provably fair system point, the main reason why we opted out of that and chose random.org is because we wanted the draw to be entirely third party; in this way, everyone can be rest assured that we have nothing to do with the results. To make it more transparent, the draw will be live streamed to prove that we are not manipulating the results. I believe random.org is pretty solid, and if you have concerns about their fairness, they have tons of information in their FAQ section.
You have a valid point about the long process, which is why we are speeding up this process with marketing and giving out free tickets for a limited time with the hopes that people who get tickets would share it within their circle, prompting more people to get tickets, and so on. I like your idea about doing a draw before all tickets are sold; of course, the price won't be the grand prize, but we will consider doing small random surprise draws along the way
Thanks for the feedback; if you have any questions / concerns / feedback, feel free to reach out to me or CryptoJoshua. Thanks.Regards,

Even if this is not fraud, the probability of winning is very small. Who wants to take a chance, who will turn up fortune, maybe he will, but I do not want to risk, so I pass by.

Grand prize: $1,000,000

You have written in the title - free admission. But in fact you need to buy a ticket for $ 20. This is at least misleading.
Hey Kleo,
We are currently giving out a limited number of free tickets as a marketing strategy to help gain publicity and momentum. So, the ticket that is worth $20 is actually free for now and your risk is currently zero. There's no purchase required for now, unless you want to increase your chances of winning and need more than 1 ticket. We are hoping that once people get tickets, they promote it within their circle leading to more people obtaining tickets and so on. If you have any more questions, feel free to reply back. Thanks.

How possible for the website to be scam? I guess it's very likely. Why? simple, they don't provide enough info about who they are, not a registered company, and most importantly if you visit their FAQ
The whole thing seems sketchy to me, because I've tried to make a provably fair lottery before, just failed with marketting, and it didn't need any registeration or user information too.

How does playing Bitcoin Jackpot work?
When you play Bitcoin Jackpot, you are purchasing a raffle ticket. At the time of the draw, a winning ticket(s) is selected at random using random.org which is an unrelated third party; the draw will be live streamed on YouTube (or another video streaming site) when every ticket is sold. To make things as fair as possible, the draw will be conducted on video by people who are not related to Bitcoin Jackpot.
You know there are tons of ways to hijack such 'cheap' method to pick a winner, it would have been totally different if they provided a provably fair method.When you play Bitcoin Jackpot, you are purchasing a raffle ticket.

Hey GamerSky,
I'm one of the members involved in bitcoinjackpot.global (you can check out my bio on the website). We just started the raffle this month, so the site is being modified as we get feedback from people. Feel free to check out the site now as we have added the information that you have asked for, i.e., who we are (on the main page).
We didn't see the need for a complicated algorithm to have a provably fair method because it's just a simple raffle. We wanted to be as simple and transparent as possible, so we decided that once someone buys a ticket, they get a number between 1 and 100000 (which is given in sequential order based on when someone buys a ticket). Once all tickets are sold, the draw will be live streamed, once again, making the procedure transparent to everyone. Random.org is also third party, so there is no way we would be able to influence the outcome of the draw.
We also have a hassle-free registration process to only collect an e-mail id for the purpose of sending the ticket number; we don't collect any other user information that is intrusive. And I agree, marketing is a challenge. By the way, apologies for the late response; I didn't see this thread earlier. Thanks for the feedback.

This is the most useful post I have ever seen today lol. However, the search feature on this forum sucks because it limits newbies if you want to search for multiple things within a short span. I feel like that restriction is useless because newbies would rather just fire up a new thread (if they haven't posted anything within 360 seconds) instead of waiting for 90 seconds. There is also a Google-based search without the restrictions, but most newbies don't know about that.
Where's the google-based search? Is it what i'm doing? Going to google then ask a question then include bitcointalk at the end? Thanks in advance.It's kind-off what you are doing, except you are not only typing bitcointalk; you need to include site:bitcointalk.org (without the quotations). This expression would force google to only show results from that site, rather than using the keyword, bitcointalk, which could also show results from other other websites with that keyword. It saves time from filtering through multiple websites to find what is relevant.
