Online poker players and sports bettors have something to rejoice about this morning. The popular Cash App (formerly Square Cash) that was setup by Square and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is rolling out a buy/sell bitcoin feature into their existing Cash App. The bad news is that initially the app...

Hey Guys, Anyone from Australia playing RooBet Casino or Stake atm? They need me to verify ID etc... how you guys getting approved?

Stable coins like JP Morgan coin and those from Gemini or Circle are heavily regulated so I doubt if they will every be used on any offshore bookmaker or gambling site. They are more for inter exchange or interbank settlement. If you want to use crypto for something slightly illegal like online...

Good question. I guess they can't really. They're probably relying on the fact that you have to accept their terms and conditions when you sign-up, one of which is that you need to be over 18 to gamble on their website.

Hopefully a controversial hard fork won't happen. I have enough problems explaining bitcoin to friends without the added confusion of 2 different bitcoin chains. My guess is that one of the chains will quickly die and we will be back to one bitcoin within a couple of days.

that's completely insane. my guess would have been closer to 20%. no wonder transaction fees have increased so much in the past year.

If you want to buy large quantities of bitcoin and remain under the radar of the IRS or any tax authority then use a decentralised exchange or buy from Paxful or Localbitcoins. Otherwise you may get a huge tax bill in the future.

t's insane that 85% of bookmaker.eu customers are now withdrawing using a cryptocurrency. many of the offshore sports bettors that i know are technophobes so most of them must be getting their children to help them setup wallets and sell at exchanges.

the best bitcoin wallet for gambling or anything else is a wallet where you control the private keys. anyone that trusts a bitcoin exchange or online wallet to hold their coins is crazy.

Australia is also in the process of banning in-play sports betting and online poker. 888poker have left the Australian poker market and it's expected that PokerStars and Full Tilt will do the same. If you Google the The Interactive Gambling Amendment Bill 2016 you will find out more.

remember that bitcoin cash is over $1,000 so there might never be a better time to dump them at bovada.

I'm super excited about Lightening Network because I think instant deposits will increase the appeal of bitcoin amongst gamblers. Even if you use a bitcoin wallet with a dynamic fee calculator, quiet often your transaction does not get included in the next couple of blocks. An online gambler...

my guess is that you could make money mining some of the less popular cryptocoins like ethereum, dash and zcash. you can mine these using graphics cards. to make a profit mining bitcoin you need to buy specialised asics and hardware and you probably can't compete with chinese miners who are...

Yes, this would be an incredibly stupid thing to do in the current environment. If you followed bitcoin news you'd probably be aware that there is currently a huge split in the community as to how the bitcoin blockchain should scale. There is a real possibility that bitcoin will split into two...

if you panicked and sold all your bitcoin before the segwit2x hardfork, you would have lost a lot of money. personally i think the whole thing was a charade that allowed jihan wu and roger ver to play the market. they new it would eventually be called off so they bet on the price going up and we...

Wow, this is really awesome news, thanks for sharing. Making it as easy and as fast as possible to buy bitcoin is a huge step in the right direction for widespread adoption. Well done Brian Armstrong and team.

I think Coinbase are going to go bankrupt soon. They haven't paid back ETC to their customers in over 4 months even though every other exchange did it in a couple of weeks. Brian Armstrong said they only lost $40,000 through the relay attacks but I'm finding that harder and harder to believe.

If you are based in the United States then Coinbase.com is probably your best option for buying and selling bitcoin. They have a pretty stringent KYC/AML process but once your account has been approved, you can easily add a U.S. bank account to fund your BTC buying/selling.

There are reports this week that the European Union is planning to create a database to hold personal information on each crypto-currency user. For AML and KYC purposes they want to be able to link real world identities to wallets so presumably they will to be able to track if you are using your...

Hey, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in selling a verified account at Betphoenix, Skybook, Betmania, Bet33....Most of the sportbooks available in Europe offer peanut sign up bonuses, reload bonuses are very rare and small. Unfortunately european players are not allowed signing up...
