Sorry for my messed up typing.  Rushed through it on a mobile swipe keyboard.

At Xiao's request I wanted to give my experience with betcoin and Xiao both.

Before swc changed hands the action was better on swc fur cash games, now it's closer.  I have had fast cash outs, wick response from support, and generally no issues.

Xiao has paid rake back consistently, and has been communicative when payment for his commission has been held up.  If you go through this thread you'll see him posting players out of his own pocket when payment has been held up from betcoin.

I don't play much anymore, but played poker fur a living for years, and have had many many rake back and prop deals, I can say with full confidence xiao is top tier professional.  I don't know him personally, but have recommended several people to this very thread.

The rakeback is really really generous, much better than you will get from swc.  If you prefer to play tournaments, it's not even close since betcoin gets you access to wpn tournaments.

Yes, Xiao reached out to me and asked to give a review, but my review is definitely my own.  He (she?) is a top tier affiliate, and betcoin is totally legit.. Plus it works well with the various stat huds.

pretty sloppy to not have HTTPS enabled here.  hashes of builds, etc.

sloppy on security is the last thing i want to see in an unregulated bitcoin poker site.

someone was repsonsible for security, and they quit.  maybe i'm in the minority, but i'm skeptical of micon et al to be able to live upto the same standards.

you still have that car?

you guys are crazy

does table starter rakeback continue after more players join?

ie, if i start a table do i get 50% until i leave even if the table fills up?

quoting for posterity because OP is claiming in other threads that coinbase is hacked and that is why his funds were stolen from there.

would love to see a fast linux miner that could go directly off a pool rather than having to sync the whole chain

OP; I have to ask.. wtf are you talking about?

People being rude by not allowing people to pass.. genuine gripe.  A speaker disregarding the other speakers whose slot he is infringing upon, genuine gripe.

People cheering 1000 silk roads.. that is not a genuine gripe.  If you are excited about bitcoin for no reason other than it has, and will continue to, make you fat fiat profits.. then you are in the minority among the true believers; and history will be the judge of your convictions.

People embrace bitcoin not just because it is "sound money" *per se*; but because of the ramifications of sound money.  Those stinky neckbeards you love to hate, they see something you have apparently missed: many aspects of the state are evil (including, quite loudly, the so called 'war on drugs').

Not because I think it is the most important example, but because you specifically bring it up and it is just oh-so-easy to destroy, the inevitable '1000 silk roads' is a direct result of a combination of lobbies and facist, religiously-inspired legislation that does nothing but harm to everyone other than the government agencies which are granted power to enforce such legislation; as well as profit for the check-writers for said lobbyists.

Is heroin itself bad?  Maybe.. Is heroin addiction bad?  Clearly.  What about marijuana, should that be illegal too, Mr. Nostink? Has elevinty billion dollars and some of the most powerful government agencies in the world done a single iota to stop heroin addiction, or heroin distribution?  No.  

They have done one thing: consolidated the absolutely inevitable suppliers for this free market demand into cartels.  They have increased risk to drug addicts by an order of magnitude since they get neither government nor legal free-market oversight to verify the purity of their drugs; and they source them from dangerous situations.  They have increased prices by an orders of magnitude, leaving addicts not only high, but desperately broke.. unable to get themselves out of a hole which surely only further triggers the underlying neurosis that is leading them to addiction in the first place.

i was with you, for a minute; a bunch of stinky neck-beards being geeky and self-important. It's annoying, I can see.  It doesn't rub me personally, but I can see how a stick-in-the-butt but otherwise genuine figure could be turned off by it.  

But getting pissed off that people are bringing up anarchism at a fucking bitcoin conference?  You have to be out of your mind.  Anarcho-capitalism?  Heard of that?  Any non-gutter-punk pseudo intellectual or better that even feigns to promote 'anarchism' is fundamentally assuming that commerce will continue to happen among a bunch of self-interested actors.  Are you so completely removed?

We need a revolution.  We need a revolution for the exact reason that we need bitcoin.  Wealth continues to be concentrated in the hands of the few that are closest to the fountain-of-cash known as central banks; while the middle class shrinks and billions continue to live in poverty.  "Capitalism" is simply freedom.  Freedom to transact and trade capital for one's best interest.  God forbid people recognize the blindingly-obvious fact that power is currently almost entirely in the hands of those that go beyond their own freedom to transact, but shape society and law to restrict others from doing so.

You've received a lot of support and agreement, well of course.  Probably half from anti-bitcoin circle jerkers; as well as other short-sighted fools like yourself.  Look here, in this thread, up until this post and past it; look at your article submitted to /r/bitcoin.  Read the comments.  Go on pretending that the bitcoin community agrees with you; if you can handle the mental dissonance--you seem upto the task.

Viva la resitance!

buyer beware

you're the one posting garbage buddy.. no one said anything about 72 btc, ever.  dave unlocked my whole wallet; which indeed had several hundred btc in it.  i had just sent him a single addy with unspent coins; so he never had access to the whole thing.

I figured you would not have run them, but just looked in them for some notion of how I thought the password might have looked

i was very, very close.  if i had used in my own cracker the basic notion of checking shift-casing the different chars i would have found it myself eventually.  i gave him a lot of info; but actually  most of it was "wrong" in the sense what i told him it most likely looked like was not what it actually was.

i did provide him everything though, an essay on my thought process as well as the source code to the cracker i wrote; not sure if he used the ruby scripts at all though
