I've got the alpha app on chrome and moved a few mBTC over to test it out. Interface is clean, intuitive and the rest speaks for itself. Stealth Transactions sure sounds good to me.



Check it out.

*** Stealth Transactions ***

If we had that technology before 2011 things might look much different around here now.

It's never to late to start from scratch.

Tested the chrome app some more. In case anyone tries it, logs in and all of a sudden funds his balance being 0.. don't panic, server app takes a minute or two to refresh when the app is reloaded.

Apart from that no problems. I even pretended I lost my wallet login and recovered the previous wallet into a new DarkWallet with the seed.

Pretty impressed by DarkWallet and will follow it. But for now my Blockchain wallet will remain to be my main. End of the day Blockchain has Shared Coin which isn't much different.

Hi everyone.
As you may be know we have problem in france to play on the .com poker room.
We can only play on the .fr.
The prizepool is very small and the rake very expensive!!!
For example the sunday special on PS has a price pool of 100k€.

For us the only to play poker with people over the world is to play with bitcoin.

Do you have any room to advice?
What's your first feedback?

Thx for your help.

Seals with Clubs is an excellent option for people looking to play with BTC. However, SWC ranks 44th in the world in traffic ATM, with a 7 day average of 95 cash game players.

SwC has been a very good thing for me.

Control your own destiny.

Good luck with finding a Bitcoin site that can offer maybe 10% of that as biggest prize pool in an MTT.

any feedback from Betcoin Poker? K8 Poker? I know there hasn't been a lot of traffic on either so far. I know they have some freerolls, and some of the micro-tourneys at Betcoin seem to be running somewhat. Any peak times thus far for traffic?

My biggest question is how competitive is the sportsbook at Betcoin? I know this may not be the best place to ask, but I can't look at the lines without making a deposit first

First broadcast:

The new economy based on bitcoins, the computer-generated crypto-currency, is the subject for discussion. What can you buy with them and as the market fluctuates wildly, can investors hold their nerve? The programme will look at how the bitcoin craze began and whether the world really does need another currency. Evan Davis's guests are from new companies hoping to cash in - one trades bitcoins, another stores them and the third enables you to spend them online."

Anyone playing on Betcoin? if so how is the cash game traffic?

i play there but not much tracffic now but got some bonuses and small gtd tournies

Is there enough traffic to enable a player get through the entire first deposit bonus before if expires?

anyone else get this offer from Betcoin? I would assume (like the 1st deposit bonus it's 90 days), but anyone know for sure? I've tried emailing customer service a few times but no response...

yes thats the same bonus for everyone

i dont have a time limit to clear my 100% bonus and they just came out with a flash version so you dont have to download

^ went ahead and micro-rolled a deposit at Betcoin Poker to take advantage of the above 1st deposit bonus. Let's try and get some cash games going so folks can try to play through it. So the above offer doesn't have a window to clear the bonus?

Tried out Betcoinpoker today. No volume yet but I'm very impressed with their support staff and the software.

The flash software is in beta so there are a bunch of bugs, but every e-mail I send is answered promptly and the bugs and fixed in a timely manner.

This is the first bitcoin poker start that feels "real"...like when Stars burst on the scene after years of Pacific Poker and other crap sites.

when i deposited i asked if there was a time limit to clear my bonus they said there was none but this was when they first opened so not sure if they changed it yet

with the "hands played" and "time sat at table" promos going on, there have been a few more cash games going off at Betcoin lately around 23:00est

No mac support, not crazy about the browser client either..

Okay, well looks like they have a Mac browser on the way and the web client is being improved quickly. I really like SwC and the BTC model, Betcoinpoker might be something to watch going forward.

I'll come back when they have a Mac browser.

FYI Betcoinpoker.xx, NOT Betcoin.xx. Funny story....

For those that are in to cryptos... BlackHalo / BitHalo and NightTrader are about to go live. Keywords are "decentralized exchange" and "trusted contracts"... follow the white rabbit... enter the matrix.

(Both, blackhalo and bithalo betas are expected to be released today.)

BetcoinPoker.com WPN Information

Played a bit today as well and it was very smooth with a nearly instant withdrawal.

Yes this is some very good news, played a first batch of mtt's and god they are extreemly soft. Feels like playing on PartyPoker 5 years ago.
