102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever wiped off a casino through Blackjack? on: August 21, 2020, 03:34:20 PM
I had been playing Blackjack with fun money for a few weeks now and learning more about how it is being played, where should I Hit, where should I stand and where to double down my bet/split the cards, etc. The only major thing is that, the number should not exceed more than 20 or in some cases, 21 whereas if the dealer gets the almost same number or higher but under 21, then dealer takes it. I've won so many times that I believe I've mastered this game and should start stealing some money from casinos through this game. Do you think I should try my hands on this game with real money? Have you ever made a lot of money and made a casino helpless with this game?

When you get so many wins using play money, it does not mean that you'll get the same thing when you use real money.
So if you want to try it with real money, better to start with small amount only that you can afford to lose.
Ask yourself whether you are confidence enough with your blackjack skills or not.
Anyway, did you do something like card counting when you got so many wins with the play money or you just did it with your feeling?


The feeling will be different especially if there is a real money involve, maybe you got lucky because you are just using virtual money but everything will change if you put money especially if it is big and it is your hard earned money. It doesn't mean that even if you win big amount of money through using virtual accounts, it doesn't mean that you will also be good if you open real account in specific online casino. Playing blackjack is not about luck, there is a mastery that is really required in order to dominate the game.

I would not bet on a website without top reputation, but I appreciate that the op reminded me of the possibility of betting on presidential elections! I've looked on Sportsbet.io, and while I haven't found the Trump vs Biden thing, there is an opportunity of betting on the party that wins the presidential elections. The odds are currently 1.57 for Democratic, 2.13 for Republican and 68.92 for Independent. I'm placing a bet on the Democratic Party because Biden seems to be leading the polls, Trump has been as irresponsible as ever dealing with the pandemic, and I'd want the Democrat candidate to win (especially now that the so-so Biden is taking the great Kamala Harris as his running mate).
It is just a poll after all and it can be manipulated by someone, I will make a bet in Republican because I know Trump will win and he will make America great again. If Biden will win, the projects and things that finished by the Trump administration will go to waste. Say there are a lot of people who hate trump but history will repeat itself where before Trump has a lot of haters but he still won the previous presidential election.  Tongue

Previous Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5222426.msg53752319#msg53752319

I like making these threads because it's interesting to see how Bitcoin has changed people's lives. So how has Bitcoin helped you in your life?

For me personally, I use Bitcoin to accept money from people instantly.
That means bitcoin gives you the way to make money Wink
Yeah, many people who involve in bitcoin world would agree that. Bitcoin has done many things for them, including me.
We can make money from bitcoin, and we also have a new type of investment that we can buy at any price, whether the price is at a high price or low price.
I agree that bitcoin has changed people's lives. Bitcoin helped me too, because I can earn money by doing something such as trading, lending, etc.
I am sure that if people out there know about this, they will want to join us and start making money.
It is not just about money, I know a lot of people see it as a main source of income but for me it is not just about earning and getting rich someday. For me it is about having a better economy and community, I really like the characteristics of a bitcoin which is decentralized where there is no institutions or government that have control on it. The broken system is still in our economy and it can be develop and improve through the use of bitcoin. Imagine also transferring big amount of money with less fees than using 3rd parties out there like banks and any broker. Look at the people around the world who lost hope because of the hyper inflation that they experienced before but now they are happy because bitcoin manage to fix their problems and they are now living normal life again.
105  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Stable At $11K – Altcoins In Green: The Calm Before The Strorm? on: August 19, 2020, 04:48:02 AM
The market isn't able to keep up the resistance above $12000. The price right now has fallen low to $12000, and upon this I believe bitcoin to have high stability above $11000. Maybe through this week we can see the price of bitcoin to fluctuate between $11800 - $12500. Altcoins in the top order hasn't pumped high. Every year end there'll good increase in the price of bitcoin. Upon the same there is high chance of reaching $15000 or above.
We do not need to worry on seeing prices unable to hold above $12,000 levels. It must be just another usual correction which do happen following immediately after every sharp spike. So, in my opinion market is not stable at the same time market is still stronger toward $15k which may happen by end of this month as well. Altcoins are this time following bitcoin markets.

I do see only very few altcoins got ability to trade against bitcoin's corrections. Totally this correction will lead to another rally which may get us into a new ATH since May 2019.
The market make a big move yesterday that leads the price of the bitcoin to surpass and break its resistance at $12k, the good thing is the price is now holding above that level with huge volume telling there will be a monstrous move that may happen again. I actually regretted my yesterday's decision because I take profit because I thought that the price will bounce in the resistance. That's okay with me because it is a new knowledge and experience that I can use in order for me to maximize my gains and lessen the losses.

We should expect that there will be a correction that may happen because there is no such a cryptocurrencies that go up like a elevator without retest or the correction. For the bounce players, try to get positions when the price managed to reach the support level.
106  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why I like to learn and use bitcoin on: August 18, 2020, 02:54:08 AM
I like learning and using bitcoin because bitcoin is the currency that can help me get rich fastest. Investing right when the price of bitcoin goes up, you will get very high profits without any profession. If you want to do business without loss, you must have knowledge So I studied bitcoin very carefully before investing money. And I sell, buy depending on the period.

Well said mate.
But to be honest we can't exactly determine when the price of the coin will go up.
What we can do is just to estimate.
And as Bitcoin is a stable coin so if it also falls down, then we won't face any losses.
Moreover i also like Bitcoin and Use it more often as it is stable and when the price rises, it gives enough profits.

Nevertheless this thing varies from person to person and i respect each other's point of view.
You can predict the short term price through technical analysis, a lot of people thinks trading is like gambling but it is a myth because trading is a set of rules and you need to know what kind of analysis that you should use in order to make gains. I think people should not view bitcoin as just source of income, because  a lot thinks that it is a form of investment and not a form of currency that can develop the payment system in the near future.

Having a good mentality can give us not just profit because we can learn nee concepts and ideas that we can use. We should not be part of the majority of people who are lazy to learn, we should commit that we are forever student of the market because it is always changing and for us to able to adapt certain changes.
107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: August 17, 2020, 06:56:48 AM

Ah I understand, first game, I'll go with the flow placing my bet for Blazers with +5.5 handicap the odd from the site I'm placing my
bet is @ 1.9

I personally like how the team played the last time, Nurkic  and Melo is stepping up helping the Duo's (Lilard and CJ)
The last previoue game of Blazers was pretty good. I thought Blazer gonna lose that game with Grizzlies. Lilllard had put so much effort in that game. However, they will going to face the best team in their conference (Lakers). They were unlucky this time and if I were them I will only bet to win to which they can decide when to throw a game. Probably that is a sure money for them but prettt sure a loss in their team in the play off. My bet here in the best of 7 games play off is Lakers. Hopefully gamblers should be able to predict winning game in the play off.
Am I the only one who is excited to the 1st game of Lakers and Blazzers? In these past games we saw that Liliard have hot hands where he scored 60 points 2 times in a row. It is unbelievable while the Lakers have bad start in the NBA bubble. But we are now talking about playoffs and for sure all of the times want to win. It will be a tough match for me but still the lakers have the upper hand the Blazzers is the underdog.

❤️😍Do u like windice?
🔥Let's vote - that's your choice what kind of game we will launch next.⭐️
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Every voice matters!🙌🏻

Slots is leading at the moment, it is nice to see it to be honest as I'm a fan of slot games. You may add slot games (hopefully an original one) instead of from 3rd party providers. I believe many people will like it, this crypto gambling industry needs more provably fair slot games because there is not many available provably fair slot games here. It will be nice addition if you can make it come true. Hope slot will stay on the first voted game and I'll make sure to try it once you add it.
They should add slots and roulette for me, they should consider the preferences of the other gamblers because like you just said "slots are leading" games in the online gambling industry. Dice games are common feature and every casinos have now it, people will become more interested if you will add slots and roulette. In your sites there are only 3 games which are dice, crash and plinko. For me it is not enough and you should really add some more games. But the good thing is, the gambling site can be considered as unique because of the certain features like faucets and affiliate program.
109  Economy / Economics / Re: China is winning the Economy Wars on: August 17, 2020, 03:36:30 AM
Obviously, they are. In China, the number of covid cases right now are only 600+ even if the virus originated from them. That is a sign that they are having a good control and steps towards handling this Covid-19 virus in their country. With that, possibly the businesses in their country are operating so that their economy is not that much affected. Being a country with a business-minded mindset is really what helps their economy become stable and grow. You can't deny that they are really having a massive manufacturing companies that operates in their country and being a communist country is an advantage for them. US really have a downward movement in its stock market but they don't have any choice but to fight for it.
Their health protocols is good that is the reason why they managed to end the spreading of the virus in their country in just short period of time. The virus originated from them but they did not suffer like the other countries because a lot of countries are still having a hard time to fight the pandemic. Like in U.S. even though they have the best medical facilities in the world, a lot of people are still dying because of the virus because their health protocols are not strict like in China. A lot of people there do not believe that the virus is really existing and it is the reason why a lot are been infected. Actually you are wrong because even though a lot of people are still have the virus, the stock market in the US are keep making all time high especially the indices.
110  Economy / Economics / Re: COVID19 VACCINE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH? on: August 17, 2020, 02:33:26 AM
Most vaccines and medicine are up for trial and error. There are no other means for scientists to know if it will not be tested. Honestly, I am not willing to try something that might give complications to my body in the future.
But let us accept the fact the death for knowing the vaccine is inevitable though there are selective trials that are being made globally, still every one of us has different body composition, genetics and body reaction. We could not care less if there is a vaccine approved for all of us to use, or if we want to and honestly if there is known vaccine I would be willing to test it out myself, even the russian vaccine. Our scientists and doctors are just human, they don't know everything but let's hope for their enlightenment throughout this times. I feel like we are going to be in this situation for a couple of months more starting 2021.

However, having a vaccine for COVID-19 is a big step for each country. We all know how devastated the economy became since the pandemic started. People might be able to get back to their normal lives and drastically the economy will recover.
Every country now is making their move, testing every thing, studying the past coronavirus so they can get any information about it, once the formula is out it would be reproduce to be sold in other country for speedy take ins.
The 3rd phase of is a large scale of testing which means that thousands of the individuals should be tested first before it get passed, the reason why the 3rd phase is important because the participants that will be tested should be different categories of racial and ethnic in order to know if this vaccine will be safe in all of the ethnic and races. After the phase 3 we will going to phase 4 which means that the vaccine is effected and passed the trial, in phase 4 the vaccine will be mass production and it will be marketed all over the world. This will be a life changing event in different countries because it is the way in order for us to see the bounce back of many economies.
111  Economy / Speculation / Re: Guys avoid panic sell... on: August 16, 2020, 10:06:08 AM
Panic sell can't bear a good result for crypto market. If we think about a green crypto market, we should avoid panic sell. Panic sell affects on the price directly.

It is a negative thing to start with.

Those people are actually not panic selling, especially at this time since they are used to these movements that are happening. HODLing is the best for now, if people bought at the dip the last month they are looking at a lot of good profits since then. Patience is really needed in this market, right now we should not panic sell, keep on holding. It will surprise us again.
HODL can be a good strategy right now because the price is still consolidating inside the area of value. The price is trailing at 20 Moving average which is considered as short term dynamic support. There are 2 times where the price hitted the 20 MA and luckily it support and it is the reason why there is 2 huge wick. By analyzing the last 4 candles, you can see that the candles do not hitting the current support which means that there is a momentum where anytime the price may reach the $12,000 again. It is already 2 times where the price try to stay above $12k but that two times failed. I'm sure that the price will also try to surpass it and maybe this time the breakout will become successful.
112  Economy / Economics / Re: COVID19 VACCINE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH? on: August 16, 2020, 08:05:09 AM
If we don't have a history of being exposed to the coronavirus, why are we willing to be injected with the vaccine and even though it's free but still, it would be better to refuse because basically we are still in good health, because it would be better to put those who need it more. There is still a lot of controversy about the vaccine itself due to the lack of clinical trials, but they will still campaign for vaccines, especially for medical workers and teachers. When a vaccine is still not found but the economic growth will still be carried out by implementing a new normal era but indeed, when the vaccine will really be accepted in the world then it is clear, Russia will take the lead from a more significant economic growth, but it is still not a guarantee for now.
Injecting vaccines are not mandatory after all, the health department of my country is finding a persons as a subject to try the vaccine that the russia invented. As of now, I do not heard in the news who became part of the 3rd trial of the vaccine. Even though there is now a vaccine, the economic growth is not yet fast as we thought. It will really take time in order for us to see the recovery of different economies. Millions of lives are been affected and thousands of business are now permanently close because of the pandemic. It is sad because a lot of countries enters recession but it can be fix if the experts conclude that the vaccine is safe.
113  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling.org Official Thread - Trusted Online Gambling Sites Since 1996! on: August 16, 2020, 07:02:23 AM
Gambling.org was put up for sale by a guy (very well known gambling affiliate) who owned the domain for a long time in June 2019: http://www.gpwa.org/forum/gambling-org-sale-249034.html

I don't think it was sold so is this still you, big fish @OP? Smiley
On sale will it change hands? I think gambling sites will be maintained, but in fact they can be traded. Oh my God, is it a common thing or do we have to believe in this if we switch hands to another?
I am afraid because there is an injustice when it continues.
The trust of the people towards your site may change because there is a new owner and management but you can improve the services that your sites offering if you want to attract a lot of gamblers out there. When I visited the site, I found out that you have classic and unique features because the home page is about the history and background of your sites unlike othet gambling sites there where their homepage is the casino itself where you can see the games that can play.
114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why most people think Bitcoin is a scam? on: August 16, 2020, 06:00:39 AM
Rumors and fake news are the reason why bitcoin have bad image in the public that leads to misinterpretation where the public thinks it is a scam. We cannot blame them if they their own personal view towards bitcoin is scam because it only proves that they are still ignorant. It can fix through proper education, the good thing is every knowledge is now available in all over internet and we can easily access it especially if we really understand the bitcoin. The only problem is the people are lazy enough to fo research and it is the reason why they keep believing in the fake news and rumors all over around the internet.

And guess who are the people peddling those ideas? Lazy people who got scammed because they believed about a certain easy money scheme. Its their own mistake but they are blaming the technology for it. They didn't spend some time researching or reading before spending money. Kind of sucks that its very easy for them to spend money than spending time researching.

Those people who are spreading rumors that btc is a scam are the very same people who doesn't even understand btc and crypto.
They did not know that free money and easy money can make them vulnerable to scammers. Yes there are many scammers in different social media platform and the victims are usually the people who are seeking easy money. There is no easy money because you really need to exert effort and time in order to make gains in a specific investment. Do not also believe in rumors, exert effort in order to know if it is legit or scam.
115  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance trading bots are garbage on: August 16, 2020, 04:28:17 AM
Actually, many people misunderstand trading bots, many people think trading bots can provide passive income.
Even though in fact trading bots depends on the ability of users to set up these bots, because trading bots does
not run automatically. So it's better to do manual trading is much better than using trading bots.
People deceived on others opinions and promotion just because they thought they can have "passive income" through using it. It is their fault to fall in that kind of trick because it is just indicating that they have wrong mindset about trading. Actually there is no passive income in trading and they should be aware of it because it is a game of possibilities but you can consistently earning through it by having a proper plan and good discipline.
116  Economy / Speculation / Re: When we will see $12k Bitcoin once again? on: August 16, 2020, 02:58:31 AM
It is now happening. The market price of Bitcoin and other cryptos are continuously rising and Bitcoin manage to get close to this price mark and if things will be fortunate for cryptos, $12,000 mark is not a hard thing to cross. Given how other cryptos are also having a good rate of increaze at this moment, I'd say this can be a bullish market scenario. The only question hanging is how long will it last or will it be able to continue until the end of this year? 'coz more likely this will be followed by a sudden downfall just like what happened before. So we better be careful and not let ourselves to be carried away too much by our expectations.
Look at the chart and observe it very carefully, there are a lot of spike in the $12k area and most of them failed to stay above it. The thing is the bitcoin is having a hard time to surpass it, meaning there will be another rally if the bitcoin managed to achieve it. Even though we are now in bullish market, we should still be careful because everything can happen. It can transition into downtrend easily through breakdowns so we should always have a back up plan but the possibility of that happening is low so it means that the price of the bitcoin can go up more due to its current sentiments.

Panic sellers always have their selves to blame, a friend of mine was once in the shoe, I believe almost every one must have done such before or perhaps still doing it, I remember when he told me that he sold his $linkbull at $150 despite buying high then with a Fud news about the token going to zero, currently $linkbull is almost $15k per unit, he's regretting it right now
If you have discipline, for sure that you can avoid panic selling. We should remember that trading is a set of rules, if we do not have rules expect that we can do FOMO and also panic selling. I avoid panic selling by following the rules that I implemented to myself. For example I have a rule that I should only have 4 trades a day, I cannot exceed on that number because I can consider it as over trading and it can affect my trading performance. If we know what we are doing, then we can avoid panic selling.
119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You have to prove that you can take the loss on: August 15, 2020, 05:50:46 AM
...Addiction is the biggest enemy here...

No, it is not addiction, it is ourselves. Humans are natural sinners and greed is just a part of us. The biggest enemy here is ourselves, how we will be able to stop those losses, how to stop betting when we don't need to bet anymore, to decide correctly. If we will be able to control ourselves we don't need this cap to stop us from gambling, we can do that ourselves.
With simple awareness, you can know if you are in right mindset where if you are thinking right and good. Greed is part of human nature but we can control it if we have discipline. Actually self discipline is one of the hardest human achievement because it requires commitment after all. A gambler should know when to start and when to stop or to backout. Discipline can also include the money that you are only wanting to risk and spend in order to avoid to lose more money.
120  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gamdom.com - 3 Million+ users - Jackpots, Rains - unique games modes on: August 15, 2020, 04:08:00 AM
I think that the response of the team to these dilemmas would be crucial on how people would accept them. Clearing reputation would require tremendous efforts, and they should start to do so

Could you please expand more on this? You make it look like they already did something wrong and now should start to clean up their reputation. What "dilemmas" are you talking about, more specifically? If you refer to KYC requirements, I don't like them either, and, as I'm inclined to think, no one does. But that's not the reason for "clearing reputation" as there's nothing to clear (let alone reputation)

So what am I missing, exactly?

Its sounds funny when I read the clearing reputation word since there's no something bad happen as of this moment, maybe the one needed to clear out here is those little things found on website and some sort of suggestions that needed to look up for improving the users experience in the site, so overall theirs no really huge problem here.

And for sure no one really like KYC since its an awful to give out our personal details to anywhere and provably this will be needed in huge amount only.
In terms of choosing a online casino, one of the factors is the KYC. We are always being reminded that uploading personal documents online have risks because we do not know if our identity is safe or not. But there are online casinos out there that have good security like the Gamdom because they said that the date is 100% secured. The KYC is required as they said but the good thing is they only asking personal information and not requiring any valid i.d in order to increase the level.
