There's 20 users signed up now so that should be a £500 pot assuming everyone pays. Should be able to get a fair few more users before the start of the season in august so spread the word.

Awesome, thanks hilarious! It's going to be "painful" for me to wait a month after WC2018 for another chance at the pool pot. Haven't done well in either, looks like will end below the middle again but I see quite a few new players at the WC pool, be nice if every single one of them also joined up EPL, though understandable that not everyone follow the English league. I saw OP and it says five of us also signed up for the bigger 100-pound pool, so hopefully that's 2 pools to participate in. Allows for strategy mix. I like.

Wolverhampton Wanderers will have a crypto-related sponsor in the new season, btw. Sign of the times that the EPL has a sponsor in the industry.

Really? That’s interesting man!
I’m looking forward to the real football too Wink
Liverpool tickets go on sale to members week commencing July 16th so I’ll be in the online queue getting as many as I’m able to. Annoying sometimes, you see certain games getting sold out whilst you’re still in the queue. I usually try to get 8-10 home games per season.

Yes, you predict the score and get points for the correct outcome (win, lose, draw) and much more points for getting the correct score exactly right. I will PM everyone nearer the time about payments but it will probably be a week or two before the Premier League starts. Hopefully the bitcoin value will rise again during the tournament like it did last year and we'll end up with a nice bonus for the pot.

This sounds awesome,

where are payments made?

Money will be collected in nearer the time of the start of the league so everyone pays the same and there's no issues with fluctuations etc. Are you in?


I'd like to say I am! 25$ isn't a bad price at all, seems like good fun, It's just a score prediction right? each match day predict scorelines?

When do you need to know by?

Why not tell the other Chipmixer guys to join up?  Grin  I'm pretty sure 50 GBP is nothing for you guys.  Lol.

Anyway, it's nice to see more and more people gambling a bit and having some fun.  Smiley
I heard they prefer to spend their money on private jets, and parties in hot tubs. I guess if there were higher stakes at hand they would come flooding in! Cheesy

This is why I have a love/hate relationship with bitcoin.  I will always support bitcoin obviously but it can be quite annoying when you get paid in bitcoin and the price plummets %50.  Of course the opposite can happen as well and it can rise %50.  The price we pay for being early adopters I guess Smiley
The current price of Bitcoin has no bearing on me whatsoever. In fact, I've gone several months without checking the price a few times before. I normally got my updates from the forum when users were panicking. I care about the value of Bitcoin rather than it's current price.

Great project! Joined.

I'll join the lower end of the bracket. So either £25 or £50 if you decide to do the latter. Hopefully, over the entire season I do better than I did in the World cup...

It's not much for anyone on a half decent signature campaign to be honest. You could probably make your money back on Chipmixer just by posting in the discussion thread throughout the league as well though. good fun either way and a decent chance of making some money.

Yeah I know...  I was just goading him to let the rest sign up.  Grin  

I mean it would be cool to get this thing to have 50 players or so...   And who knows, if it gets really popular maybe some sports betting site or something 'sponsors' the pool by adding some money to the pot.  Smiley

I like your style toke, be good to get the prize pot up to £1,000 or something Smiley

Hah!  Loving this betting pool.  As soon as we send our BTC to hilarious I think the price will be at 5k USD or something.  Then as the 2018/19 season ends it could trend up to 30k USD or so (maybe more?).  Grin

If nobody in the list leaves the betting pool then sure, let's go 50.  But I'm mostly doing this for fun, so if a lower buy in gets more players in then that would be better imo.

I was thinking, should we double the joining fee from £25 to £50? Would everyone be ok with that? We could then scrap the £100 pool and just meet in the middle. £25 isn't much at all (and neither is £50) and I'm sure most gamblers spend that in a week at least. You've got to remember this is an entire season of entertainment/gambling for a fairly decent prize so is well worth it. If we can get 20 users then that would make the pot at £1000 so it's better winnings for everyone. I think we should have no issue in getting 20 players to join especially as we got 23 last season and the current World Cup pool is at 20. We would only need a couple more users to hit 20 as well. Thoughts?

For me it doesen't make difference but we don't know the monetary status of other participants. Maybe doubling the basic fee would be deal breaker for some of them.
Maybe you could create a poll and let people choose. If you decide to go that way make sure to include several options like:
1. Don't care I am in anyhow
2. Only 25 works for me
3. 100 is a must, to differentiate serious gamblers from weekend enthusiasts, I want to be part of elite  Cool
Ok, I admit above needs some working but it seems to me a poll would be the simplest way to get your desired feedback.

Just asked micgoosens to join for next season, he’s a really cool guy. From Belgium, he’s the guy who gives away free bitcoin for correct predictions on the bitcoin price at certain intervals (in the Speculation section - Wall Observer).

But yeah the pools are cool, a number of us get on really well & who knows when we see 1 bitcoin at $100,000 we could have a pool party somewhere Cheesy

I am very interested to join here .. how much should I send if in ETH count? enter my name as a participant. I have never participated in a competition like this, so please guide me to get started
thanks.

I may accept Eth, but I'm not taking in the money till nearer the start of the season. I've put your name down in the op.

Best way because we don’t know what the bitcoin price will be.
