Everyday I receive notification of my contacts joining Telegram and I know the reason is no other than the trending airdrops aka free money. Nigerians are trooping in their numbers even people who do not know basic security tips. I know that bad players will definitely use this time to obtain as many people as possible because not everyone of these new people know that most of the things being circulated as airdrops are not airdrop but phishing links.  

I do not understand the aspect of airdrops requiring people to pay as high as $3 to withdraw. Whenever I see something like that, I always feel that it is how they plan to drain people of their Tons and might be the reason for the entire airdrop that is after people have helped them grow their social media and youtube channels. My little experience in this digital space has exposed me to a lot of things and made me realize that nothing is completely free. There is usually things to do or spend to get something.

A little guide on how to go about it would have helped. Your advice to avoid looking at the chart always is valid and for new investor, it is not necessary to know how to ready the chart because it is just like a waste of time. Instead, he can buy from the exchanges using market execution if he choses to use the DCA method which is highly recommended for a new investor. If the option is to wait for dips before buying, this might also be good but a new investor should think more towards the DCA method which is more systematic and have some forms of discipline inherent in it.

In addition, he also have to pay attention to other things that will help him HODL not just how to buy. He might have good plans in terms of long term but if he did not make adequate preparations, such plans can be spoilt. There have been cases of people who plan to invest and hold but have no proper plan and in the end they sell their Bitcoin when issues arise. So, while we focus on buying, we should also make plans for how to protect the investment from sudden liquidation.

It happens when you stay away from gambling for a while, it will usually like as if you are starting all over again and that way you have to figure out the games you win easily and that can be tiring sometimes. If you are active in gambling, somehow you will build some strategy around the games by figuring out the games that works well for you at certain times of the day or things like that. Personally, I there are some games I love playing at night and some at day and that is how I get the desired result. If I take a long break from gambling, most of these things might have changed and using same pattern might not really work perfectly well; this care make the whole thing tiring.

I think the market just offered us another opportunity to buy, buy and continue to collect more Bitcoin at a very reduced price. This does not come as a surprise to me though because I expected some corrections from ending of July to August but this will begin to change as we approach September, a month that is always seen as a positive month for Bitcoin. Both those using the DCA method and buying the dips have the chance to take advantage of the drop in price. This is not the time to panic but time to take actions that is intentional.

You have so much details on this so I doubt a friend will let you have access to such details including his emails but it is OK to represent a friend. As for this case, I think something is not clear here and only your friend can clarify it. And like some people already confirmed, coming to lay a clear one year after the event what I find strange and it raises a lot of concern regarding the legitimacy of your claim because someone that flipped $14 to $5k will not rest until his withdrawal is processed.


Meanwhile, what I think is most likely cause of the problem is the self-exclusion request by your friend. If this is looked into, it will not be far from the cause of the problem since your friend did not break any rules base on your explanation and the screenshot provided where the Duelbits support confirmed that also.

It may sound funny but if I write down my selection before I place the bets, I will lose the bet. I have lost count of how many times this has happened to me, so to avoid this, I usually play just few matches from few leagues. As a matter of fact, as the season starts, I will use the first 5 matches of each team to know their forms from there I will make my selection to bet every other week.

Seems the OP is in the habit of playing long slip and what he would have done was to book the game and copy the booking code so that when he wants to continue, he call up the game and add more selections.

I don't think it matters if you like it or not, Bitcoin is decentralized therefore accessible to anyone. If governments think it wise invest and hold Bitcoin, they can and I see them just like an individual holding Bitcoin. There is really no difference between government holding Bitcoin and big cooperations like MicroStrategy...

Your reference to what the authorities can do through regulations can still happen without them holding majority of Bitcoin. It is just a matter of time before countries start investing in Bitcoin, the signs are there already. As individuals, we should just prepare ourselves for that time and take advantage of the opportunities we have now.

No platform will take such risk because democracy rarely exist in those countries so anything goes. The only platform that could offer such option should be those located in Venezuela  but then, they will be exposing their business to serious risk if the authorities find out because no one can tell what the reaction will be.

During our last general elections, we had such in local gambling platforms but the elections were rigged which makes it useless putting such event gambling sites.

Winning casino is mostly through luck only some few games that require skills but sports betting is majorly through skill which knowledge is part of. If you draw opinion poll here, you will see that not many people know all the rules and style of play in soccer, tennis,  hockey, basketball and other sports. You will notice that if you have so much knowledge about the sport, it is then possible to win them because you know your way around it. I was in a discussion with a friend who bet only NBA because he has so much knowledge of it whereas I bey mostly on soccer because I have good knowledge of it. Knowledge is a major decision making index in sports betting.

You already stated that you don't support clubs blindly meaning your passion for the club is not that high else, I would have said it is a difficult thing to play against the club one support. Well, I know there are different levels of supports fans give to their clubs, maybe yours is the light type. As for me, I avoid playing the club I support whenever I suspect they will lose or have a hard time winning. I will simply remove the match from my selection or just play them base on goals so that even if they win or lose, as long as they give me the desired number of goals, I'm good.

Low income earners who do barely have enough to feed exist but in such situation, investing in Bitcoin is the last thing they should worry about because they need money to invest in Bitcoin. If they use the money they are supposed to use for feeding and invest in Bitcoin, it is a matter of days or week before they sell the Bitcoin because food is a basic necessity unless they have decided that they will die of hunger instead of selling their Bitcoin so that when they die someone else will sell the Bitcoin or it becomes lost coins.

To invest in Bitcoin and be able to HODL it, the investor must first of all set up the money for their basic needs which cover food, shelter, medical and others. After then the investor have to protect the investment by setting up emergency funds that will take care of things that fall outside the basic needs which can come up unplanned. It is after this two set of funds are in place that there will be some level of confidence that the investor can invest in Bitcoin and HODL without the pressure to sell.

Generally I love sports betting and I have been on that for the longest time. It has been exciting and emotional although in terms of winning, I have not gotten there yet. However, later this year I have decided to focus on casino games too maybe I could win a huge multiplier. This is my new decision is really giving me so much excitement already because I could target big wins with very small amount of money even though it does not come regularly. So far, Slots have been behaving fine for me.

I think it is just few gamblers that understand the importance of taking a break from gambling in the event of consecutive loses or major wins. The few that take a break from gambling only do that after consecutive losses and this is something I confider incomplete because if a gambler did not learn to take break during major wins, there are high chances that most of the winnings will return to the casino. Of course giving back winnings is a very painful thing for the gambler so instead of this happening, it is wise to take a break after a major win to protect the money and put it to good use.

Their win against Puerto Rico was not a big surprise to me because they already demonstrated their strength against team USA. So I knew the match would be a work over for them  and I was not disappointed. 90-79 is a clear win devoid of coincidence and I give it to South Sudan. At this pace, their future in the Olympics is bright and like you said, they might clinch first position in the group. It really feels good seeing an unexpected country pull this kind of surprise, at least let's hear something good from that war-torn country.

In my neighborhood, we cancel serious engagements because of EPL matches especially when our favorite team is playing. It is a huge market that cut across many continent and I can say with certainty that Rollbit will continue to get bigger from this point. By the way, I will be very happy and proud to tell my close friends that the company I market in the forum is the sponsor of Southampton, a team very popular due to their presence in Pools that is played in every nook and cranny of my country.

I was also surprised to see that Barcelona let go of such a quality player like Joao Felix. Of a truth, he seemed not to be in the good books of Xavi, the reason he was not given enough opportunity to showcase his skills, maybe this could have backfired on Xavi in terms of his results and achievement in Barcelona.  With a new management in charge, it would have been nice to retain him and see how well he can contribute to the team.

For the most cases, people learn from experience which comes with time just like you have stated. I take myself as for example, when I started gambling, it was pretty easy for me to win and because of this I started becoming complacent and over confident, taking unnecessary risk and not knowing when to stop. As you know, gambling have a way of teach us a lesson; that was what happened to me. I learnt the hard way but thankfully I was able to overcome that challenge of lack of self control. I got better and it shows in my results afterwards.

The fear of failure is real and a major hindrance to many people. The danger of this is that anyone entagled in it will hardly grow because they will never do anything involving risk, forgetting that risk is present in every business in life. I think one thing I have benefitted from gambling is overcoming this fear and this has helped me in my investment both in Bitcoin and the real sector. I no longer the fear of being wrong stop me once I have weighed the risk that it is something I can bear.

You are largely correct and I agree with you. I view gambling as a business and not hobby, I expect to make money from it using my money. I'm afraid to lose the money because I play within my budget

This issue with KYC after winning is becoming very disturbing and, at this same time, discouraging. Why can't these conditions be spelt out ab initio so gamblers will know what they are up against. Well, this is one side of the story and I hope an agent responds to this to clear the air because it is possible it could be a communication issue; a situation where they needed more time to complete their audit but did not communicate adequately. However, if this is not the case, it will really be very big cause of concern for highrollwers.

Attending the conference is a great move and a good one for the Bitcoin community. Even though he might have other intentions and agendas,  it becomes easy to hold him by his words which for now seem positive for Bitcoin. However, I have learnt not to swallow the words of politicians hook and sinkers,  rather I will take it with a pinch of salt as only time will reveal what the true intentions are. While we wait for the elections, it is wise to enjoy the gains that the market will make following these developments.
