101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is web3 casino the new trend for casinos? on: June 09, 2024, 04:35:41 AM
~
You'd probably see web3 casinos as not so legal way of gambling imo. They don't have a license nor can they get one unless they go away from the no KYC model after all, and I highly doubt it'd continue on for long since as you've said, casinos deal with money and the government would do absolutely anything so that they can make them adapt KYC for the sake of AML. If they don't, well, the casinos would simply be illegal. Geoblocking would probably be the most basic action you'd see them do, which honestly has a pretty big impact already on their business.

Not to mention that most of the so-called "web3" are still, well, centralized. The only thing they offer that's web3-like is integrations to their wallets and at that point, it lost all it's advantages since in the first place, anonymity was the #1 thing web3 was supposed to provide.

Well if you prefer to maximize your odds then the higher the odds the better. Well, I'd only ever start doing this maybe upwards $1k? I don't think it's worth the effort and time to check all the odds and swap to them when the amount you bet is below that. Other than that yea, definitely. Sports betting is for betting money anyway, kind of different on how I view it against casinos

This is ignoring the reputation of the casino, features, issues, stuff like that btw, cause if we include that then no matter how high the odds are if they were pretty bad at doing their jobs, I'd much rather go to my comfort bookie.

Maybe they have a limit to the number of withdrawals allowed? Kind of weird, but hey it happens and it's their casino lol.

Also kind of misleading, you didn't lose the money due to the withdrawal, you lost the money due to your greed. Stop misplacing the blame to the casino here, pretty sure 100% of it is in your hands. Personally, i've never had this instance before, granted I rarely withdraw money in the first place. I just use them as a bonus for more plays, or just subtract my usual deposit amount by what is leftover to maximize it. Highly doubt it'd happen anyway even if I did leave it for withdrawal the next day.
104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tokenomics: how much founder-benefitting premine would you accept? on: June 08, 2024, 03:22:31 AM
~
Up to 5% max. As you've already said, premine coins from founders/team simply end up crashing into the market after a reasonable price is achieved, so it just ends up ruining the economy of it. Not to mention that it just ruins the idea that the coin was supposed to be swayed by the market, and not by the team behind it. With 5% max, they can sell it but it wouldn't be significant enough to sway the market to go the way they want to.

If it's possible really I'd want a validation model like Bitcoin but hey, not every team out there can be Satoshi Tongue.

He's... an employee. Not a die hard fan lol. If this was included in the contract then yea, he deserves getting sacked since he went back on the agreement but otherwise, I see no reason why he should be fired over it.

Personally I've better against the teams that are my favorite/root for before. I'd consider myself pretty fickle when it comes to choosing teams after all. Not that I don't avidly support them when I do, heck I go all out whenever I need to. But if I feel that they don't deserve my support anymore, I move on, simple as that.
106  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is getting addicted to gambling right or wrong? on: June 06, 2024, 11:22:28 PM

Any type or form of addiction is wrong. Even being addicted to helping someone can be bad since you'd go to extreme choices of attacking people who DON'T need help to help others, e.g. a vigilante. Everything should be done in moderation no matter what. It's no surprise why doctors often recommend taking a break every now and then no matter what since releasing your brain from thinking of well, whatever can be very helpful. Or even just a simple change of pace.

As for managing gambling, it's all up to you really. External help can only do so much imo. It's your money, your time, your mental so it's also up to you to help yourself.
107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Countless Telegram Mining Apps - Crypto Adoption or Devaluation? on: June 06, 2024, 09:39:18 PM
~
I mean if the mining tokens purpose was to get mined and to provide profit, I'd say it's proper adoption. If, however, it runs contrary to its purpose (or just fills a part of it), it's probably a failed model in the first place. I mean, just the fact that people keep asking "when" it'd end and "when" they can sell seems like a failure to me since they let the vast majority of their users be able to mine said coin with no limits or no specific qualifications, so there's basically close to zero limit to what they can mine. Sounds like a recipe to crashing the market to me.

But well, just let them be I suppose. As long as they aren't downloading something or are paying for it, I'd say let them waste their time lol.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling push notifications. on: June 06, 2024, 08:52:06 PM
~
Can disable them. Massive pain in the ass usually since google (or any machine in general) hide it in the deepest darkest dungeon of your phone, but you can disable them. As for push notifications, in general it's just a browser thing I'd say. And in most cases, which I assume the same as yours, you have your google account logged in to that browser so push notifications are enabled.

Afaik though they generally aren't enabled? You must've clicked a popup randomly by accident which enabled it or something. I've NEVER had any popups in my phone, gambling related or not. That, or I just already set up notifications to gtfo when I saw them once lol.
109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sorry Help on: June 05, 2024, 11:02:16 PM
Hello class,
I would like to ask a question, whether it is still possible to recover the damage done.
I tried to take my USDT from Gate.io via the TON network, sending them to BYBIT, via the same network, but at the time of the transfer I typed the word Memo wrong.
Is it possible to recover it or was it lost?
Since gate.io left and the operation was complete, but at bybit, it never arrived...
Thank you and all your help and welcome.
[/quote
Ask for help from gate.io. That's really your best bet imo. Highly doubt Bybit could help you here since the funds probably were not sent to them in the first place. Give it a week or two and if they don't answer or respond negatively, I don't think there's any hope for it. Probably prepare some proofs as well as the transaction details beforehand so the talk with customer support can go smoothly. Had this problem once before (not with Gate.io, another exchange) and support was able to refund me my coins back after a couple of days (with a fee, ofc).

Agree with the change. It can definitely be overwhelming when you suddenly have a lot of money all of a sudden. Even if you consider it took a year or two to earn a life-changing amount, that's still pretty damn fast imo and can change a lot of how you view things. Personally, that's how I felt when I turned from some random college kid to a guy who earns about 600 USD per month (due to crypto). I had no concept of money and wasn't really greedy back then, but money changed me pretty badly lol. Luckily I managed to stop myself before going overboard, but it definitely was a bad experience imo.

And avoid subscriptions! #1 thing I hate lol.
111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is a fun activity but it has some potential to be profitable sometimes on: June 05, 2024, 09:16:13 PM
~
I wouldn't really consider profitable to be the term, that just pushes you to the idea that gambling CAN be profitable. It generally isn't and I'd just consider anyone who actually won it big to be similar to those who won the lottery. Not really realistic enough to be called profitable.

Anyhow I highly doubt you'd hear from most people. Generally, anyone here doesn't like sharing big wins. There was one user here who shared his results betting on some sort of strategy and he hit pretty big odds a few times, he was playing on a casino that uses CLAM iirc.

To not click links willy nilly I guess? It's usually possible to see what the links' URL are if you copy the link itself, paste it into the URL bar but don't enter it yet. Just look it up and you'd see if it's the legit site of the exchange/project you're looking for. There might also be some sites that check the URLs validity for you but I don't really use them.

Also helps to double, triple check whatever the hell you're doing when you're using your login details for something. That's basically the only thing you can do to avoid Phishing. Always use software/extensions from the main website and avoid third-party ones like a plague. If they don't ask for your details then nice, you can use them. If they do, avoid them. If they're open source then you can probably trust them but if not, then just find an alternative or forget about it altogether.
113  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing wisely in memecoins can give you returns. on: June 04, 2024, 09:37:55 PM
~
You mean investing luckily right? I've also been investing in memecoins and the only thing I can say is I've only been getting lucky with my ins and outs. I barely did any thinking and research, just went ahead and took some memecoins that seem to be performing regularly well. Took advantage of some dips and bought, profited, and left. I don't think I've ever held a coin longer for more than 12 hrs really. I always check every 2 hrs and if it seems to be a profit, I leave then check again every now and then to look for a buy angle.

It's nothing long-term and I highly doubt it ever will so just short it if you can.

Naturally. Letting it sit in your bank just doesn't sound right at some point after all the things I've heard about finance stuff really. Sadly idrk much about the finance-related sector e.g. stocks. Might try studying them up a bit once more (I tried before, and I didn't go through it after much thought). But there are also other ones you can do, specifically businesses. I'd say if you know how, you can even build a SaaS all on your own and earn money from it.

Well you also need to remember that on the other side of the coin, you can also lose money while sleeping Tongue.
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you understand entertainment? on: June 03, 2024, 11:11:51 PM
~
Entertainment can be different for everyone. You can be entertained by winning, by the process, or by even something specific about that game (not necessarily the process or winning), so it's pretty subjective. Me personally I just enjoy the process. In gambling I enjoy the idea of having to risk the money itself, the thrill of betting money to earn more, and stuff like that. Do I need to win? It'd be good if I did, but not necessarily. It can be kind of confusing since the process and the win itself in gambling can be similar, but personally I feel it rather differently so maybe that's just on me?
116  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't you think you should invest in Bitcoin instead of burning your money in fire on: June 03, 2024, 09:43:08 PM

But there's no one really to start helping them know about what to do. I have a friend who was able to do what you wanted, learn about investments, and businesses at around 11th or 12th grade iirc, and he managed to grow that business pretty big. Pretty sure he has his own startup right about now, and still growing. And you can see how that's unique since he's like one out of the hundreds of people I know in my locality.

Yes, in hindsight, I definitely would've loved investing in Bitcoin and learning about it back when it was just new, but that's the me now. The me back then probably wouldn't give a crap lol, and that was me actually hearing about it before back then!
117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Q3 - Influencers - transparency, real x fake balance, their amounts... on: June 03, 2024, 09:22:37 PM
~
1. Definitely not. But I think it's a lot better for streamers and casinos to put it in at least just for most people, who are not aware of it, that they aren't using their own money and that's why they can make those reckless decisions that they do in stream. I don't think anything is honestly lost there imo.
2. Transparency is definitely a must, why not? I mean it's something like a marketing as well or the casino if they were able to reveal that they were transparent as much as possible. Nothing lost is there imo and would probably be better for the long term
3. No not really. At the end of the day it's money that came from the casino imo.
4. Naturally the 1st one lol. Some streamers can and are able to hide and play their emotions perfectly but most of them can't, they're much better off just being transparent with how they play so that it's a lot more relatable to their audience. Building a sort of rapport between the user is more effective after all imo.
118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I can easily find 3 odds games on casinos but hard to find on sport on: June 02, 2024, 10:46:26 PM
~

They're probably just the same really? I guess in your case it's more of a matter of preference since you also like watching sports in general, which lead to you being addicted more to sports gambling than in casinos. In your example as you've said, casinos can have really flexible terms so you can easily try to play on the specific scenario you want, unlike sports where the odds are based on the bookies themselves which stem from the level of the players and teams involved.

On another point seeing as you're just spending 5% I reckon you're more than ok, even if you were deceiving yourself with your own analysis. I mean, don't we all? Tongue
119  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you think it's best to consistently use the same exchange? on: June 02, 2024, 09:47:35 PM
Cause they're good at what they do and I've had zero complaints so far? Pretty sure that's the only thing you'd ever want out of an exchange. If you start talking about promos, user rewards and whatnot that shit ain't going to end imo. Honestly as long as an exchange is good and is allowed in my country then that's basically the exchange I'm going to use for as long as I could. Also helps that their reputation was good but that's mostly before trying to use it.

And besides, not really a fan of doing multiple KYCs.
120  Economy / Gambling / Re: Unreasonable Withdrawal Limits on Betiro on: June 02, 2024, 08:59:50 PM
Live support says they forgot to update the rules page and that they can't increase the withdrawal limits. I will try to withdraw 500 Euros every day. However, I believe the site's intention is to make me lose my balance and avoid paying out at all. I submitted a withdrawal request again today, but they still haven't processed the payment.

I registered here because I liked the platform. Yes, this is my mistake, and I regret it. But a 500 Euro withdrawal limit, like giving pocket money, is not acceptable in my opinion.
Take a snapshot (the internet archive thing) of their site maybe before they updated the change?  The monthly limit was ok, but imposing a daily limit was dumb as hell. Or not stating it in their ToS in the first place as well. Updating a ToS as well should happen BEFORE the updates roll down on the site, not after. And even to this date the ToS still remains the same, so I highly doubt they're working on it ASAP lol.

Anyway, as I was saying, snapshot, then file a complaint to curacao or something if you want to push through your complaint. Highly doubt it'd work, but hey, it's a free option. Unless you want to go the legal way which is probably going to take more time than you withdrawing 500 (was it USD, or Euro) daily.
