101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 💩 We are now in the “shitcoin” season? 💩 on: September 18, 2020, 05:41:34 PM
That's right, this is a new kind of scam. Only in this case, people really offer some kind of project, even if they themselves do not believe in it,
but this gives them the opportunity to receive investments from people and thereby earn money.

Unfortunately, anyone can create their own coin and also having a small amount of funds to create a stir around this coin.
This may be enough for some people to believe in the possibility of earning money or the idea of a project and invest their money there in order to eventually lose it.
102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Cash A Better Crypto To Invest? on: September 15, 2020, 10:34:47 PM
Bitcoin Cash is certainly a popular currency, however, is it the best. Personally, I believe that no alternative coin is the best and can not be until its price depends on the price of bitcoins.
No alternative asset, except for stable coins, lives its own life, they all swing on the same waves with Bitcoin.
Therefore, what's the point of choosing Bitcoin Cash or ether or something else, the result will be about the same.
103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sending in fake ID for KYC on: September 15, 2020, 10:25:19 PM
Why not giving fake ID for submit KYC and approved? I think is not serious problem because we can't trust anymore with some project exchange or bounty campaign must participants submit KYC document, how ever they will take benefit from our data using for other else.

Not sure if this is a good tone. There are two options, either you use other people's data or change your data so that it does not correspond to reality.
The second option is preferable, because you do not substitute another innocent person.
But this does not apply to exchanges, because if the account is blocked and it is not possible to provide the correct data, you can lose your savings.
104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / MyEtherWallet launches open-source Ethereum block explorer on: September 15, 2020, 09:17:16 PM
Crypto wallet service MyEtherWallet has launched an open-source blockchain explorer to go alongside its popular wallet service.

Called EthVM, the new data service will be more transparent and conducive to collaboration compared with popular explorers Etherscan and Ethplorer, which are not open-source. "We believe this will help us discover use cases and solutions that have not been addressed by blockchain explorers before," the company said in a press release.

MyEtherWallet saw 1.4 million visitors to its website last month. The company said that in providing support to its wallet users, the team has realized that many user questions — particularly those that pertain to wallet balances and transaction status — can be quickly and easily answered using a blockchain explorer.

"When it's late at night and you get a scare because the wallet interface is showing you unexpected balances, a block explorer can tell you what's really going on."

105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling going to be regulated on: August 23, 2020, 03:05:20 PM
Already in several countries gambling is regulated. Very few countries follow it in a strict manner, while majority just stay liberal and give importance when something serious as suicide happens. Regulations were a must, but those regulations need to keep both the users and the gambling platform owners on the safer side.

I'm in very much on the side of the government if they want to regulate and provide a cap on every user about how much each can gamble because strictly speaking, even though the government makes good profit from casinos, but it shouldn't come at the expense of the citizens by having their hard earnt money ripped by misusing their addictions!

I agree with you. Regulation simply has to be.
Of course, no one forces citizens to go to casinos forcibly, but the casino is arranged in such a way as to put people on gzhmbling, which leads to mental and social problems in quite healthy wealthy people.
The state in this case loses, since the level of the state is determined by the consciousness of its citizens.
106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Space Race Wagers? on: August 23, 2020, 02:26:12 PM
Its incredibly hard to make a prediction of the growth of technology, and therefore our capabilities in the near future. So, although Elon Musk's predictions might seem a little far fetched, and don't get me wrong they are. I think it certainly might be possible in the lifetime of a few users on this forum.  Obviously, Elon is a businessman, and he knows how to make money. He knows that going on Joe Rogans podcast was a good move, and he knows exactly what to say to increase his sales. However, Elon does have a good track record of delivering what hes said he will do. Although, its usually a little longer than the initial prediction.

I don't personally believe there will be a singular effort in the space race, and sending the first people on mars. It will likely be a joint effort among the major companies. Elon will likely be given a contract by NASA, and NASA will work together with various other countries space teams. So, a space wager might be a little difficult to come up with if they were all going to contribute in some way of form. On the American point of view, NASA is probably the more experienced in manned missions, and SpaceX has been making good progress on the engineering pioneering such as the reusable rocket. There's loads of different companies though, and its hard to predict how much each will be involved, but I do believe there will be multiple involved.

I agree with you. Things like this are very difficult to predict. In fact, everything Musk says should be taken not literally, but figuratively, as hints of potential opportunities in the future.
It is important that people believe in him and his company, which leads to further investment and an increase in the chances of implementing his plans.
Plus, various technological breakthroughs can dictate the vector of the space race and the technological development of mankind as a whole.

Definitely, Slots games are so addictive not only here in my country, totally I saw the impact, seems like good but sometimes you almost forget all the important things first, I think it is the effect as casino lovers, and I respect that, maybe my mind is turned to that hopefully aside from me, our government also really needs to control it, Actually with a good reason through regulation for balancing to all activities between life and games. Because in reality it just a game that can give pleasure and happiness.

A couple of days ago, I made an appointment with a friend, for which he was late as a result because he lost track of time playing in slots in a casino.
Moreover, my friend never visits a casino, this was his first time. He was late for an hour and did not even call back, referring to the fact that there was no connection.
Gambling turns people into addicts very quickly.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How fair is Provably Fair? Do you verify every bet as a gambler? on: August 22, 2020, 06:51:53 PM
That’s a lot of numbers to crack for you to know if its fair, and if you are just playing to have fun then you don’t have time to know if its a real fair or not. Someone will work on that, those who gamble seriously should make sure that the site is fair to you and fair on giving details of your games. Probably fair really exist, top gambling site is making sure to be fair to remain a reputable gambling site.

But we are talking about blockchain. One way or another, we can do a check inside the network, and there are special algorithms for this. I have never trusted regular online casinos because their source code is closed and we cannot be sure of anything. But blockchain allows for a different way of looking at these things. Why configure the system in such a way that someone would lose more if initially all factors are arranged in this way. The probability of losing is always slightly less than the probability of winning.
109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: August 11, 2020, 04:34:49 PM
These days we can get more bonus based on the amount being wagered, but there isn't no free money to play and get real money out of the same. Few sites provide free money, but those are very little and can be renewed once that were empty. Apart from this sites have got tokens that are a way to experiment the game and that doesn't pay real money.


Any site is interested in the fact that you would deposit your real money, otherwise it will cease to exist. Freerolls could not be too large if they did not lead to an increase in the number of players as a result.
After all, as a rule, most of all freerolls are loved by those who do not have money for their own deposit. Therefore, it is more profitable to issue tickets for freerolls in the form of a deposit bonus.
110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Casinos are open - end of the Pandemic era. on: August 09, 2020, 11:57:19 AM
when they are drunk or may feel depressed they do not pay attention to the surrounding conditions and do not pay attention to the protocols that should be followed because more and more people do not care about the spread of this virus, the more people are infected. I hope the government there can provide a strict statement to be able to suppress the spread of this disease.

Statements won't help here. It is already well known that a number of restrictive measures were useless, which means that other restrictive measures are also questioned in people's minds.
In a state of alcoholic intoxication, we are more inclined to break the rules, which means that if they are violated soberly, they will be violated 3 times more often when drunk.

It's funny to watch how quickly all the hype and talk around the creation of national cryptocurrencies subsided against the backdrop of the pandemic.
Almost nothing of the kind comes through in the info field, but I'm sure that work on these projects is underway, especially now when there are so many people in quarantine.
I would like to know those things that are not yet in the info field.

113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should there be any age limit of Gambling? on: July 31, 2020, 02:23:54 PM
Casinos aim is to maximize their profit, so they will do everything to attract gamblers, as long as it's legal, but if the law of the country allows 10 years old to gamble then they would accept it, but in crytp, there's limit written in TOS but how can you ensure minors will not play when gambling is anonymous.

Obviously not. There are no guarantees. Therefore, all responsibility for violation of TOS falls on a minor, but considering that he is a minor, it falls on his parents.
Therefore, again we come to education, and those values that parents should instill in a child.
For a crypto casino, such a scenario is quite acceptable, because what difference does it make to them where the money comes from.
114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ledger 1 Mln Users Data Under Attack on: July 31, 2020, 10:43:49 AM
There is no need to panic too much about the Ledger users data under attack incident, because indeed all human creation does have weaknesses
and nothing is perfect. Make this incident a lesson, so it does not happen again. Even so I will not stop using Ledger as a Bitcoin and Altcoins
storage wallet that I have, because for me Ledger is still the best crypto wallet.


I do not think that we can somehow influence the further occurrence of such incidents. Unless we all join the Ledger bounty program to find bugs and vulnerabilities.
In fact, nothing serious happened. It's unpleasant that someone will know your address and the fact that you have cryptocurrency.
I guess Ledger could make some compensation to those people whose data was leaked. There are not so many of them that the company would incur losses.
115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ledger 1 Mln Users Data Under Attack on: July 31, 2020, 10:02:15 AM
There is also another form of an old, public information source where criminals can take your name, address and phone no. and it is readily available.
This is a telephone directory. It never caused anyone to break into houses hehehe.

This is not a good comparison, the phone book can contain the name, surname and address and of course the phone number - but it will certainly not contain information that someone is a crypto user or that person has bought a hardware wallet. But the very title of this topic is very wrong, because the attack is long over, the data has been stolen and the damage has been done. Those whose names and physical addresses are compromised in this hack are definitely a cause for concern - of course if the data falls into the wrong hands - others can only fear spam in their email box.

I agree that the comparison is incorrect. The phone book is somewhat anonymous, because you need to know something about a person in order to find him and know what he possesses.
For example, you can find media personalities, but they are not difficult to find anyway. The rest of the people will be dark horses for you.
This is the same as breaking into every house in the hope of finding something very valuable.
116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should there be any age limit of Gambling? on: July 30, 2020, 11:25:52 PM

Insurers "some" do these studies to deliver premium offers to insure vehicles, someone with less than 23 years could pay a higher premium than someone 23 or older. By this I simply want to tell you that I am not aware of any study made by any betting company that says that 18 or 21 years is an appropriate age, except that they are well received by them, because it is a matter of government law.

If a casino have lower age to gamble then they are going to have more players which means more profits for them but for a physical casino the age is strictly monitored whereas while playing online then it should be their own responsibility as you said and its not possible for the online gambling sites to monitor the age.Implementing KYC might helps a bit but they are going to lose more players for security concerns so all the responseblity goes to the minors if they choose to gamble by defeating the legal age restrictions.

The younger the person, the more easily he becomes addicted. Therefore, you are right, the casino focuses on addicted people, which means the lower the age limit, the higher the potential profit.
But this is not ethical. In the world there should be values other than material ones. I am sure that it is more important for players to feel like members of a team with a casino than cash cows.
117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How fair is Provably Fair? Do you verify every bet as a gambler? on: July 30, 2020, 08:44:58 PM
I have not checked any of my bets. Now I became insanely curious about how it works and how it will look. Plus, I don’t understand why we don’t use this feature given that it’s completely free.
It makes no sense to trust any third parties, such as the casinos where we play. If they say check us - we must check!
118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: July 30, 2020, 08:43:09 PM

Isn't it much possible now since there are lots of competitions, the poker house who wanted to reached more traffics can create tournaments like that to attract players and gamblers to participate. But like what many others have said that way back this can be achieved and there's
really a chance that there's someone here who take that win.

There are many tournaments  making today well of course to have interest of many players .but to start it in free  And big rewards that's what  I think is  impossible  to happen now you need to deposit to be able to join the tournament and win the big rewards . They give you bonus for your deposit but they will not give any free money to play.

Freerolls are an opportunity to play poker for real money for those who have no money. They do not pursue the function of making someone rich. They create an opportunity for those who lack it for one reason or another. Someone cannot have money, and someone does not know how to play and is not ready to make a deposit, realizing that he will lose everything. Freeroll is what we give them the opportunity to enjoy poker for free.
119  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers are back with another trick. Be alert!!! on: July 29, 2020, 12:15:11 PM
I have heard this one scamming people even doing a streaming video on YouTube mostly nowadays people are in need of financial during this pandemic we experience. This is an awareness, especially to newbies, do not fall to this kind of scam. Once other people asking for money and promise a return of big profit, and a big giveaways it is a prominent scam.

Any distribution of money for nothing is always a presumptive scam. Nobody ever gives money away for free, unless it's about charity.
Any distribution of money pursues some goals, if these goals are not indicated or you do not see them, then most likely the goal is you.

Recently I saw the news that a vaccine has been invented in Russia.

https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/russias-covid-19-vaccine-ready-says-official/1917666


But, I think we can only say that the vaccine is ready when it passes all the tests in large quantities.
For me personally, it seems fantastic. Europe and the west are the most technologically advanced parts of the planet, but the vaccine, for some magical reason, appears in a country that is far from the most technologically advanced.
