Congratulations OP thats a nice win.
Any reason you are betting with ETH instead of bitcoins?
What site were you playing at, the screen shots didn't look familiar to me.
Also I just think Ethereum is a better long term bet. I'm currently holding 0 Bitcoins and about $100,000 of Eth. I'm going to put them into cold storage and speculate on the price... no gambling or trading.
If Eth smart contracts become solid yes I could agree with you but today I think nothing really beats Bitcoin.
But Bitcoin will have to face many challenges in the next months so keeping an eye on the alternatives is always good.
If was you I would not go all in like that on ETH: I think oyu could better off differentiating your portfolio
Even ignoring all the Smart contract things, Eth just works better for sending money quickly and easily.
The only plus point for BTC is the head start it has. Many an inferior product has won the battle purely because of first to market and all the advantages that brings. But if anyone thinks that it can't happen here, message me on Bebo or Myspace later to discuss it
re differentiating, i'm already spread out over a lot of things and I'm not playing with money I'm not willing to lose 100% of as far as Cryto goes. Anyone doing anything other than that, is an idiot really.
So given my Crypto stuff is only a smallish part overall; I think for me it makes sense to simply pick the best option within that and put everything in there. Perhaps I'll be horribly wrong and lose a fortune, time will tell
btw back on the gambling front, i decided to cold storage the rest of my coins and put 1000 Eth into an account I will gamble from.
