just spit-balling here with the jackpot thing..
one thing you could do is have a predetermined amount such as 5% to be awarded to all players actively playing/being dealt into raked games 3-handed or more according to time stamp.
People will not be able to "game" this system and the reward will be nominal for regular players but awesome for new players.
For example, let's say jackpot is 1M:
35% to loser
20% to winner
15% to remaining at table
5% to remaining at site
25% to reseed and house commission
If there are 50 players not at the JP table they would each get 1k winnings.

you mean is players can convert their coins into bitcoin before sending it to your wallet, hope to get some enlightenment here maybe I'm missing your point.
At the start there was only Bitcoin to discuss, so it wasn't an issue. Still today Bitcoin is the strongest cryptocurrency and many exchangers exist to transfer to another coin if you wish.
seals --> great work on the tourney and glad to see it kick off in feb again! I love the free entries and this is so much more of an exciting way to market seals compared to the exclusive freerolls of the past.
also, congrats on having the first truly fair jackpot tables. can we maybe see someone other than slim_charles win a jackpot though??!!
I was thinking we need some promos for all of the bigO players that are frequenting your site on a nightly basis. This game plays a lot bigger than NL and is often your highest stakes game running. It is also the preferred game of crypto players so let's get some promos! Why should these NL dinosaurs have all the fun?!

We see the bigO games running frequently and we want to encourage it. NL still is the most popular poker, so we will encourage that also. There is internal discussion to make a leaderboard system that will be divided by game and pay a prize to weekly, monthly, and yearly winners. The system is still in discussion stages.

^ Uh... Worry about that later. In the mean time, why don't you help get some traffic at SWC to avoid that which you fear could happen. That would be more productive. 
Nothing comes for free in this world, except advises and suggestions 
. Yet, if they want I could manage a highly effective and result oriented signature campaign for them for free of cost (still they need to pay for the participants but not for me). This is what being a hard core gambler, I may do for generating traffic for a gambling house which I love personally due to feeling like one of the best house in crypto world.If you have any particular suggestion for helping them out, please guide me on to that. I am open to choose a feasible one still remember I have life out of gambling and this forum posting, still I may dedicate few hours daily/weekly.
suggestion: play poker. sit at tables and start drumming up traffic. you will get paid based on your skill level vs the opposition.
Is there no work on adding other coins to the website ? Not even a consideration at this point ?
It has been discussed internally but we are still building Bitcoin poker for a long time before we can consider it. Monero, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and others have been discussed, but we will stay focused on Bitcoin only for now. Lightning network wallet functionality will give some insurance against future network fee increases, and lucky the fee is low right now. We see about 10 satoshis per byte being paid currently for fast block confirmations, so it's not a problem today. If we make other coins available they will be separate tables for separate currencies. We see the market has players that like other currencies but with Bitcoin as the base exchanger for all of them we don't see it as an issue if a player likes another currency, those players can change the Bitcoin to what they want after they withdrawal.
Starting to learn poker and hope to play also inside your table someday, good luck.
enlightenment: convert ethereum to btc on your own. there's a million ways to do this. google is your friend.

I really really want ethereum to be involved, it would have made everything so much easier for me, it takes so much fees to send small amounts and I am not really someone who deposits like 200 dollars and just plays with 10 dollars for the day, hence having the option to send 5-10 dollars daily (which requires a lot of fee on bitcoin) on ethereum would be so nice.
The amounts here and chips so small and we can bet on tables that has less than 1 cent bids (I don't know if I calculated right, sorry if I am wrong) where as we need to pay like maybe 5 dollars on just the fee (wow my wallet is really ripping me off with these withdrawal fees) and eth would save us a lot of headache.

Targeting Sunday-Monday for short downtime to push the latest software upgrade. This upgrade fixes some of the issues that players have helped us identify. Estimate 1 hour of downtime.

I'm posting a little late, but congratulations to QuietBear for winning The Big BTC!
January 29, 2019, 09:30:06 PM
Please dont forget the LN deposits&withdrawals. Do you have an ETA for this ?
We have not forgotten, it is under active development. We won't launch it until we are confident in it, but a guess would be March 2019. We won't rush out something like this. It will be tested extensively before product integration. The community seems very interested in having a popular Bitcoin product use lightning network to see a good use case for it, and we are excited to develop the system, but we need to be as careful as possible before release. Rest assured it is being actively developed and we will bring it to SwC when we are ready.

Congratulations to QuietBear for winning the January BIG BTC for 361,760 Chips!
The story gets better! QuietBear won his BIG BTC ticket for free, and after the win asked to donate 33,700 chips to run a 100 chip freeroll for players with >500 krill EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF 2019! We loved this idea, accepted his offer, matched the funds, and now you will find "The Bearctual Freeroll" in the lobby every day for the rest of this year!
Satellites are starting soon for the February BIG BTC! 1,000,000 GTD!

You guys deserve all the amazing words you are getting and all the amazing new players you are getting because you are by far the best poker website in crypto space. There is not a single poker website in crypto space that is even remotely close to you, the difference between you as the best and whoever is the second is so big that its funny.
I hope you guys continue down this path and I will make sure to tell everyone I know about you. While I was trying to get that working I realized one thing about affiliates, normally on smaller casinos and dice games and all the likes the affiliate option is free for all and you just get a randomized link for you personally and whoever clicks that affiliate gets the return.
In SwC it looks like you personally need to apply for it and get accepted, I know there must be a good reason for it but somehow I feel like making it easier could help out a lot.

Thanks for the nice thoughts about SwC. The SwC Poker affiliate program is open to streamers, large existing poker or crypto affiliates, high traffic websites, and personal marketers with experience marketing poker and/or crypto gambling sites. We are selective because we want SwC Poker marketed in a professional style.
There has been internal discussion about a "refer a friend" program but we feel it may cause players to make many accounts to game the system for a small extra value. We discussed a krill requirement for both the referring player and the referral. We are open to suggestions, but most efforts today are focused on building the site better and fixing bugs.

So who won the big one?
Anyway, I've seen some people on the Twitters that they've been streaming their sessions. This is cool as it helps both the site and the players.
Galfond is making a promotion out of it called 'Streamr' and giving more rb and more to the best streamers. Check it out: https://www.runitonce.eu/news/6-from-stream-to-river/
