The platform is a hybrid of DeFi and Gambling so your team named it as Gambfi that is an interesting term.

What are accepted cryptocurrencies at the Endblock.io? I saw BNB only at the play site but can not find a page with details for accepted cryptocurrencies.

https://endblock.io/play

If I am not missing any point, the platform integrates Web3 so that it is convenient for Endblock.io users.

New investors are always advised to have patience when investing in crypto, there is no shortcut to making money in crypto space
If everyone comes in crypto with thinkings that cryptocurrency is something helpful with real use cases for their use and for society and they spend money to invest in cryptocurrency because they believe that it will grow with time because of helpfulness for society, it means the world will reach to a global adoption for cryptocurrency. That is massive and we are not there yet.

People currently join cryptocurrency market with naively and stupid thinkings that they can get rich, get rich quickly.

Quote
Whenever you want to make a transaction using your crypto wallet always take your time, do not rush as this can lead to regretful mistakes later, always check the receiver's address very well.
Checking everything from first to last characters of addresses and don't forget to add memo (some blockchains and some exchanges require Memo codes for transactions and withdrawals). If they require memo code and you forget to add it for your transactions, your deposits, withdrawals will go to the air.
1024  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Polygon network going to be an alternative to BSC network? on: January 19, 2023, 03:21:26 AM
The demand for BSC network has increased due to increase in gas fee of Ethereum network. Most of the Altcoin projects are now using the BSC network. Even some Ethereum network's Altcoin project is switching to BSC / Polygon network.
Ethereum is a first altcoin project with smart contract. It is a pioneer for smart contract and successfully built a very strong and big ecosystem. If Bitcoin is a biggest cryptocurrency and has biggest communities, Ethereum is a biggest altcoin and has biggest altcoin communities.

Binance Smart Chain is a copy of Ethereum network and it succeeds so far. After the success of BSC, many teams created their own chains from layer 1 to layer 2 solutions and try to make noise that they are Ethereum killers, BSC killers. They failed at beginning by doing that if you are smart and clever enough to realize a fact.

If they are really strong teams, can make innovative products, they don't have to make noise to self-called themselves as killers of other projects.

Quote
But now it is seen that some Altcoin project is being launched in Polygon network. We know that gas fee of BSC network is very low and transaction speed is high. So for which benefit, all these projects are being launched on Polygon network instead of BSC?
Polygon has many problems and with many weaknesses. Their developer teams must do load of things to improve their blockchains before actually are able to compete with Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain.

Don't believe in their promise, let's see how they release products, upgrades to improve Polygon.

As I know, mining bitcoin is the risk you get lost if don't have a good source.
but on social media, I always see everyone or the company share and sell the tool you will get a profit if use it.
Not all Bitcoin mining companies or farms have profit from mining. To have profit, they must have good plans for their income and outcome. Most of miners and mining farms start in bear markets but they fail to stay in bear market. In fact bear markets are best times for miners to mine Bitcoin and get more mining rewards (in BTC) than in bull market. Their income in BTC is bigger but its value in USD can be smaller.

So to survive in bear market, they must have good financial budget to use. If they join in bull market and smartly cashed out as well as reserved some of profit for bearish months, I am sure they are smart and profitable miners.

For beginners, they don't understand it and mostly don't have plans for bear market. It's generally so risky for beginners to join Bitcoin mining.

Quote
For example; bitcoin merch, as they sell it for beginners and look friendly; just plug in a USB to a PC then the beginner can be mining the profit.
Nowadays, who can mine Bitcoin with PC or USB?

If you use PC or laptop to mine Bitcoin now, it is stupid and can burn your PC or laptop.

Casino licensing was aimed to address two important facts which are.
1: to monitor the inflow of deposits and withdrawals to combat money laundering through the casino system.
They provide services that use blockchain technology and blockchain networks for transactions (deposits, withdrawals) and I am sure those blockchains have public ledgers so that everyone can trace transactions including casinos.

Casinos don't need to have licenses to trace blockchain transactions of users. However if they register licenses and have to obey with rules for KYC/ AML, they must have some terms about AML and more powerful tools to detect money laundering activities through cryptocurrency transactions on their casinos.
1027  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Vs Cardano on: January 17, 2023, 04:01:59 AM
Do you think cardano will over take ethereum in terms of tech with voltaire being worked on this year.
If Cardano is actually good, their team don't have to name their project as an Ethereum killer. Any project want to define themselves like this won't succeed to kill Ethereum. They tried to use a noisy name to PR their projects and attract investors.

Ethereum is a biggest alternate cryptocurrency project and it has a solid position in top of cryptocurrency market many years. Cardano has to succeed many more years to closely touch Ethereum on top of market ranking table. Beating Ethereum, killing Ethereum is impossible for Cardano.

Developers always promise a lot with their innovative technologies but you must wait months and years to see how their technologies perform in reality.

WhY is it that Metaspin campaign is not stable? Like this that the campaign is not, it's affect the manager. As it is now the campaign is on hold and this making two time when this campaign is like this. I will want Metaspin team to resolve the issue so that the campaign will run smoothly for a very long period of time.

Thanks for your speedy response and also for the Christmas bonuses. Happy Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
What if I tell you stop making noise in this topic?

If we are hired by the Metaspins company to work for them, it is our pleasure to work for them. Making noise in this topic is bad because it should be a topic for game discussions, bet discussions, sharing ideas for new products, bugs.

If you want to discuss about campaign, you can do it in the campaign topic or send a DM to Metaspins account.
1029  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain 3.0 = DAG?? on: January 14, 2023, 04:17:32 AM
Anything that's centralized is NOT a blockchain. It's simply a distributed database controlled by single entity. IOTA, and most other DAG-based cryptocurrencies are centralized by design. They're just like Ripple's "XRP" cryptocurrency (even though this one doesn't use a DAG). Why would you want speed and cost-efficiency when you're missing the most important thing (which is security/reliability)?

I guess that's why DAG-based cryptocurrencies are below the top ranks in market cap. Solana which fares worst than the aforementioned coins, is still at the top because whales are keeping it that way. But it could die soon, if it continues to be an unreliable cryptocurrency for mainstream payments. I think Blockchain 3.0 will consist of L2 scaling solutions, ZK-Proofs, and cross-chain transactions. The rest is just noise. Who knows what the future holds for the industry? Just my opinion Smiley
Is it different than centralization of Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain networks?

Other smart contract networks are centralized too and they can be stopped anytime by their teams like Terra, Solana when problems occur. I agree that it is hard to have decentralized networks for alternative cryptocurrency and impossible to have another decentralized network like Bitcoin network.

People want to have decentralization and say this project, that project is bad because its network is so centralized. However they are really ready to use Ethereum, its network, ready to use centralized exchanges when they see benefit.

They are easily to ignore risk when they see profits are bigger.

I guess there are other reasons make DAG-based projects don't have good adoption and don't attract investors.

This is for sure something we can think about. One small note is that the $100 minimum is over all wagering for the first prediction, so you could build it up throughout the competition. We will, however, forward this to the team and see what they can get setup! We're glad you love what you see though and are so excited to take part.
Your clarification on rules of WTF competition cleared up my minds. I am so impressed with your team's willingness to listen to community idea and always forward it to your CEO and developers for consideration.

With this attitude and proactive contributions with ideas from community, I really believe that Metaspins will mark its name as one of greatest casinos.

Smiley WTF is this? Smiley

WTF, what is that promotion?  Grin

Quote
What the Fluc is our first prediction promo: all you have to do is guess the correct conversion rate of BTC:USD to win a share of a $5,000 prize pool.
The prize pool is very good and attractive for Metaspins community. It is a good prize pool to start 2023.

Quote
To be eligible for one prediction you have to bet 100 USD within the promo period, and you need to bet at least 100 USD for each prediction you wish to make.
Could you consider to reduce the min bet to less than $100 for users to join WTF, please.

I believe $100 min bet is too big for many users. It is reasonable if you reduce it to like $50 or $25 but reward a smaller prize pool to like $1,250 or $2,500.

Quote
What are you waiting for, you’ve got this!
I am waiting for my proposal to be approved. Smaller min bet and smaller prize pool.  Smiley

You can run different WTFs with different rules for min bets and prize pools. Everyone can wait for WTF they see fit and join it.

We can use blockchain explorers to check transactions, UTXOs.
List of useful Bitcoin block explorers

You can use https://www.walletexplorer.com/ for address grouping and wallet labeling.

Services like Chainalysis too.

Exchanges have to fulfill requirements from governments nationally and regionally about KYC, AML so they have internal metrics and tools to detect wallets, addresses, UTXO movements. If exchanges have these tools, governments have them too. If governments require officially, exchanges will give them reports too.
1033  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain 3.0 = DAG?? on: January 12, 2023, 02:18:40 AM
DAG is certainly not Blockchain 3.0, it is not blockchain either.

In fact, there are fundamental differences between DAG and blockchain. Blockchain users only create transactions but have to rely on block producers to add them to the ledger, while DAG users both create transactions and add them to the ledger with no middlemen involved.

This leads to vastly different distribution of power in DAG vs blockchain. One of my recent articles discusses this issue:
Obyte (Byteball) is DAG project and it does not require mining equipments, electricity to mine blocks and confirm transactions. I care about security of DAG technology and would you mind explaining how DAG can provide a safer technology for users than Proof of Work, Proof of Stake and other algorithms, please.

It is more convenient, more environmental-friendly but how about security?

Any chance to revert its transactions and attack DAG network?

How many confirmations for a transaction by DAG network can be considered as safe?

With Bitcoin transactions, many platforms use 3 confirmations.
1034  Economy / Gambling / Re: 💥🔥Fairspin.io🔥💥 | Blockchain Casino to Play🤩 & Earn🤑 on: January 12, 2023, 02:09:52 AM
We received a newsletter from Fairspin that the player managed to win 60BTC ($1,021,186.89) in the Book of Fallen slot from Pragmatic Play the bet was 0.6BTC the coefficient was x100 and a link to a youtube video, if this is really the case, then we can congratulate the winner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lwmb6A_noEo


I watched the video but it does not present a 60 BTC or $1M win.

Months after a stop of Fairspin signature campaign and with so many competitors running their campaigns, what are plans of Fairspin team to keep their business on top?

Another signature campaign or kind of promo events for Bitcointalk members is not bad.

You have to wait until they (Fairspin team) complete the investigation. We don't know what actually happened with your account. Did they accuse you as multiple accounts user? KYC verified account has nothing to do if you violated their terms.
Investigation takes time and support takes time too.

If after deep investigation by different teams including Compliance team, a final result is not different than the initial decision, that appeal can be invalid and the case can be closed. Mostly a trusted casino won't apply restrictions on their users carelessly because their reputation can be damaged.
1035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 11, 2023, 12:11:28 PM
So far there has been no official decision regarding bringing in a goalkeeper to replace Neuer. in fact, reportedly, it is increasingly confusing which one to bring in the goalkeeper. but because the schedule for the second half of the season will be rolled out again soon, I think Bayern have prepared the second goalkeeper option, namely, Sven Ulreich. yes, Bayern can give him his chance while looking for a more ideal young goalkeeper for Bayern's future. after all, he is the second goalkeeper who of course has adapted very well to his team-mates.
Ulreich is good for Bayern in Bundesliga but they perhaps need a better goalkeeper for Champions League. Unfortunately it is not easy for any club to buy big players in January especially finding a good goalkeeper is more difficult.

They only can try to buy a good goalkeeper but not a big name. They can consider some goalkeepers who have good performances in World Cup 2022 but so far I have yet seen any real actions from Bayern to connect with goalkeepers like Livakovic, Martinez, Szczesny, Bono, Pickford and Lorris. Szczesny and Lorris are playing for big clubs so Bayern won't be able to get these goalkeepers in January. I would like to see Livakovic playing for Bayern.

Quote
Bayern also has a match vs Red Bull Salzburg, in a friendly match, before starting their first match in the second half of this season to travel to the Red Bull Arena, Leipzig's headquarters. just because of Neuer's absence, it's not a big problem for Nagelsmann's squad after all they are still strong and difficult to overthrow their opponents in the Bundeliga. My concern is more about Sadio Mane's injury, so far there is no certainty about his recovery.
Friendly matches are useful for Bayern in these days to test their substitutions for a vacant position of goalkeeper. Ulreich will still be their first choice but other goalkeepers will do have their chances to show and compete with Ulreich.

Figuring out your ways to hold your bitcoins. If you buy it but can not hold it long enough, you will exit your investment with nothing and maybe with losses.

Bitcoin halvings happen every four years and many things can happen each four years. If you are not able to hold your bitcoins about four years, risk to have loss would be higher.

To hold bitcoins, you must not use all money you have to invest in it. Because when you need money, you will have to sell your bitcoins. Have another source of money, income or savings for emergency can help you holding your bitcoin better.

Holding it better and longer is key for you to have success with your bitcoin investment.
1038  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 10, 2023, 03:02:17 AM
When coaches make changes in a match they should expect either criticism or praise. In this game coach, José Mourinho showed class and experience. He didn't rely so much on his defensive strategy rather his boys kept on attacking till they got the equalizer. Tammy Abraham needs more goals to boost his confidence after a very poor performance in the first half of the season. Milan tried to defend the goals but two strategic corner kicks made them squander a two-goal advantage. Roma players were better on the air and the Milan defense paid dearly for their lack of concentration.
Mourinho undoubtedly has improved Roma a lot. A trophy in UEFA Conference League in the last season is very good recognition for what he has done in Roma. They are still not the best or be able to be a best four clubs in Serie A but they have become stronger and harder to be beaten in the league.

Their defense becomes stronger and their mentality is higher that help them to fight until very late minutes and reject to losses before final whistles. I did not believe Roma can have 1 point from AC Milan at San Siro after they were conceded two goals and until very last minutes, they did not score any goal to light up their hope.

Quote
Napoli's loss came as a big blow because their aspiration of winning the league unbeaten have been truncated. Both teams tried to win the match but the Napoli attack failed to be selfless. Each Napoli attacker wanted to score instead of assisting each other. Victor Osimhen was marked-out and he received no tangible goal-scoring pass from his team mates. But the win against Samporia was indeed a great relief.
Winning against Sampdoria gives Napoli confidence back. It will be good for them to prepare a host against Juventus in Naples. The match with Juventus is important for Serie A not only for Napoli or Juventus. If you are not either fan of Napoli or Juventus, a defeat of Napoli will open the league for other clubs and make it more exciting for all.
1039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 10, 2023, 02:54:07 AM
I would say Arsenal are in very good form. They can't win against Newcastle. But Arsenal players managed to score four goals against Brighton. Arsenal team also got a nice 3-0 win against Oxford United. Arsenal players dominated the match. But the upcoming matches are very important for Arsenal if they want to win the Premier League title. Arsenal team will play against Tottenham and United. They need to get full points in these two matches if they want to be champions. At the same time Arsenal was defeated in the first match against Manchester United. They have to avenge their previous defeat.
Newcastle United have improved a lot since a last season and this season can be a milestone for them to actually become a new competitors for top four of Premier League. In latest season, we are only familiar with Tottenham and Manchester United. Since last 2 seasons, two more names joined the race, Arsenal and Newcastle United and Newcastle United is a most surprising name.

Arsenal is surely in a good form, they are also still leading the EPL standings. Although they failed to get full points against Newcastle, they still have 5 point difference with Man City. In the next match, Arsenal will play against Tottenham, while Man City will play against Man United. Both Arsenal and Man City have a chance to lose points. However, considering the current performance of those teams, I believe Arsenal has a better chance to get points. Man City will be difficult to get points from Man United. Man United looks stronger now, they returned to their best form again. I assume Man United can defeat Man City in Old Trafford.
Arsenal surely are in their good form. They have a best season in the past 20 years since their last time winning Premier League with Sir. Arsene Wenger.

5 points can be smaller if Arsenal lost one match and the difference might become only 2 points. If it becomes only 2 points, I see Arsenal will very easily to lose this as well. They are not familiar with high pressure from competitor when they are at first position. With Manchester City, if they claim the first position from Arsenal, they will hold it very strong.

Both teams will have two difficult matches so chance to see they both win their matches is very low. One of them will lose point in a coming match day.

You can only do this to join bounty but unfortunately you can not join any good signature campaign. When you buying account or merit, you're not a good poster (if you're, you don't do this), not be able to write meaningful posts so no campaign manager will accept you in a good signature campaign.
