Oh it's the new VR gear, with a seemingly insane price tag afaik AND a battery life that sucks ass. The thing is, there are probably more bad sides to it but just these two are already more of a reason that shows this thing isn't really worth it for what they showcased (which was err, watching movies, live virtual showing/presentation idk what you'd call it really, and other stuff similar to that). A laptop or mobile phone would 100% suffice, and be a lot more comfortable with a LOT lower of price tag. This is just a premium, expensive idk, toy for people who want some luxury in life. Which I kinda get, Apple does have their target audience as those tbf.

But to it gambling, I don't think it matters much. It just enhances the experience if it can do what I'm imagining it can, since it has afaik AR tech as well? Should be a rather immersive experience imo. But to buy it just to gamble? Nah, I'm better off going to a physical casino really.

SEC filed charges cause they saw something, simple as that. They're simply following their assumption that CZ broke the law or something similar. Now CZ going under would potentially also mean Binance going under, so that's that.

Wouldn't CZ lose the case immediately if he doesn't appear? Not familiar with law stuff mb.

As for the rest, all in all I think the community is over exaggerating things because there's no clear reason as to what's going to happen. In all honest, Binance shutdowns as the worst case but I doubt its going to give any permanent damage to the crypto scene. Unless, ofc, they finally release a clear set of laws that go against/reject crypto itself due to this case but eeeehhh I think the cases is more about the running of the exchanges itself than crypto.

Random. I can have instances where I use really slow amounts cause I wanted to gamble for quite some time, at times I just yolo and dish out my entire bankroll in one single bet after entering crash. Thinking about how much I bet before I even do seems kind of counter productive with enjoying the game. Not much enjoyment there tbh.

As for deposits, it's usually a set amount. If I leave extra lying around there, I just fill it up to the usual amount I deposit. I rarely withdraw my money from casinos.

Eh, I mean it's something similar to pity I guess so I may have felt it before. But it's a lot better than someone who just throws away money without any feelings about it though no? I mean even investors would be rather nervous throwing x amount of money somewhere (yes gambling and investment are different but it's about spending money in general).

Now that I think of it what I said about spending money without feeling anything is the one you should be afraid of. Cause it's either in one of two cases at least, one, it isn't your money so you feel nothing about spending it (red flag if you consider this is technically loans), or two, you feel like you can just take a loan if needed. In both cases well, you're addicted. Luckily, the latter means you've spent only your own money, no one around you is affected yet and loans haven't been done, so you can still fix it without being hurt by debts. Former? Not so much.

Well you don't, a lot of others who don't give a damn about hardware wallets do, or exchanges in general. As much as you've not used centralized exchanges, a lot of people have or are still using them. It also doesn't help that Binance is generally a big player in the scene, though I guess with how the FTX fiasco went on, I'm hoping the effects are relatively lesser, compared to back then since I do hope people wouldn't be dumb enough to repeat the same thing. Again. After just a few months ago of basically the same thing.

Well, hopefully the current trend continues. Price only dropped for what seems to be a day? Maybe even half a day only? Hope it proceeds even if Binance ever actually goes under.

I don't think you need to avoid polygon due to reasons you said above, people will crowd over the polygon network if you're game is appealing as you say it actually is. It's especially advantageous considering how ETH has enormous fees, so people transitioning to polygon wouldn't feel awkward for your game, they'd probably welcome it even. Looking at it from another side though, high fees won't exactly stop the game from spreading if it's really that good. But ehhh, considering all things, a blockchain with smaller handling fees would be a lot better.

I suggest creating a whole new post altogether. It'd kinda get buried with all the posts here. Maybe even self mod and reserve the first few sections so you can have them all for your updates.

Do tiktok and insta allow gambling related stuff? Or at least intentional promotions anw. I know twitch and YouTube don't allow it (not anymore from what I know at least). If it's not allowed then there's really no point for the list, especially if you consider how most of them probably are centered with sports itself, and not much about gambling really.

Well it also doesn't really help how gambling games itself are simple in nature. Even famous charity poker tournaments of famous streamers are only done every now and then due to that.

Wouldn't play, but that doesn't mean I'd pull out my coins though. I'd let them sit in my wallet, or maybe use them for some other stuff, ones that won't let the government connect the account to me. I'd never withdraw though, I'd just think of it as hodling, which I usually do. I can also access it via other countries if needed.

I'd simply play in regular casinos tbf if I wanted to gamble, I only stayed with a crypto casino in the first place because it was the first type of casino that I played in, so I just stayed.

Okay... This was sent as an image to me by one of my friends, I honestly thought of it as a joke but then I see this and I'm like what? I'm actually rather curious as to what the mentality and reasoning behind this is, like how was it even brought up? or even thought of?

I'd say that breathing is going to be a more likely sport than sex really. It being done openly can be a matter of discussion, well a lot more than it being applicable as a sport, that I'm sure of. And I hardly doubt I'd ever bet on this even if it becomes official (I hope not, don't make me lose hope in humanity).

Additionally, since OP's link was dead (linked me to some kind of relationship advice thing), I decided to look it up and it turns out it wasn't approved after all (whew, hope for humanity restored)?

Uhm, am I dumb or this sentence already warrants them being right and you being wrong? This is on the assumption that KYC is a rule on their casino, which usually is, and that they'd have no reason to ask for it if they didn't have in in their ToS in the first place. Registering in a casino means agreeing to their ToS, which means of they say they can ask for KYC anytime, they mean it. And with the same logic, they can lock your account at any possible time.

Never heard of the casino before, but I honestly don't think your case OP can serve it's purpose since from where I stand, you declining to do KYC is wrong in the first place.

This again stands on the premise that the casino can and will ask for it according to their ToS though. If not, then yea 100% avoid it.

Sooo, this is how good Bitcoin is really and not about casinos themselves? Also don't casinos just employ the same providers? The only difference really is the method of payment, in this case crypto vs fiat. Odds? As I've said providers are still the same so only local games made by the casinos could possibly be transparent.

Security? If crypto casinos use a centralized wallet to store your coins it's all the same. Especially if you consider how most casinos are actually centralized.

I hardly doubt it. Blockchain in of itself isn't really limited to crypto, so them starting development about it wouldn't really bring any big changes imo (though some waves may be created but that's about it). Plus, wasn't there already talks about China doing blockchain research a few years back already? It being said again once more doesn't mean anything at this point imo. China opening up crypto again might bring some changes but it should be temporary impacts. Though it still remains that China's main identity is of surveillance, so I hardly doubt "decentralization" itself would grow from there.

As for them being the lead since America's being, well, America, I doubt it. In the first place, I don't think there's any need to tie developments to a country? It is cryptocurrency after all.

For real? I mean if the ToS has a line in it then I guess it's reasonable for them to just update it without informing their users (or asking for their agreement again whenever they change it) but isn't "updating" their users about changes something required for businesses to have? It is something like a contract between the user and the website/casino after all, albeit an online one. I don't have one so I don't really know about it though.

As for those who use it, well, the moment they used it they were pushed out of "legal" businesses in my mind though.

Yup. It's pretty easy to identify where the IP location is (and VPNs usually bade your connections after all to where you want to connect from) so it's pretty easy to match. Even outside of that, comparing IPs used can be a flag as well if done so.

Even if it was Dynamic IP (which is what ISPs usually give out) it's still tied to a country. Who knows, there might also be some system that stores the og ip registration and if it was changed, compares then if country registered is different, flags the account (or maybe the IP itself).

Ehh Idk, man DCA'd for 1 1/2 year, I don't think he'd be dumb enough to sell it all at once at a loss that big. He probably separated it into different wallets or something similar to that, or maybe just a new strategy he's trying out. Definitely don't think he sold it though. Plus with the amount of money he has, I don't think a financial advisor would be that hard to get and they should know about the cycles of the Bitcoin market, even if it was simply basing it off of history.

That, or some kind of emergency took place that needed this amount of money but what could possibly need that much?

I didn't use any method (or maybe I did, I just don't really know the name), but I just tended to avoid incurring any debts as much as possible when I'm under one. Of the ones I'm in, I try to pay the one with the biggest interest rate first then slowly whittle it down from there. I never try to reduce the payments I pull out from my wages, It's always the same regardless of how many debts I have so that I can pay it a lot quicker, making me pay less in the long run. I frown upon trying to take debts under me, regardless of how beneficial they can be for me for now. It just doesn't sit well with me imo. Well things might change in the long run depending on how much I learn more about stuff like this, but for now? Big no no.

To be fair, you actually don't. A lot of the boomed meme coins were artificially inflated, possibly together with some whales or a group taking action and trying to sway the market. At least, initially anyway. The wave that followed was simply because of people's FOMO and by then, the group that started it would basically profit no matter what. A community doesn't necessarily have one of those people, who bootstart the process. Having a big community (not too big) can help though in someone trying to identify if they should do something like that again or not.

Though without any future telling abilities, if you were to decide to invest in a meme coin, look at it's popularity, simple as that. The amount of articles, clicks attention, and whatnot. A meme coin booming would naturally make the news across all platforms since, well, it's a memecoin. That boomed.

Well the question is related to BTC, such as "Should they buy BTC" after all, so I reckon the answer of just buy it is actually more than enough of an answer. After all, considering the positions of early investors, I don't think they've made a loss if they've continued hodling till now. Criteria for choosing another "Bitcoin" though? Kinda hard to give since it's been a decade and Bitcoin's still the king. The rest of the coins that were released are either shitcoins, or Bitcoin but with caveats (as well as its own advantages, but caveats still are above it imo). If it was just choosing another coin, well that depends now on how well us as investors can actually understand what they want to do and what their plans are.

I believe helping new investors achieve what they want is close to nill, at least in the short term. A lot of money is lost in the process of learning to invest, and I highly doubt they'd stay after losing a few thousands of bucks. If they stay though, that just means they're prepared to lose more, not necessarily achieving their goals immediately.

Well it puts an end to his problem, and not to sound cold or anything, but the dead don't particularly give a damn about the living. Dumb decision-making results in dumb results sadly enough. While I do pity the family, I don't think I have any for the kid himself. The result was caused by his own greed, not even hesitating in trying to include his friend in the case. He couldn't, or rather didn't dare face the consequences of his own actions.

While I think 22 is still young, it's at that age when you start thinking for yourself, and responsibilities and whatnot should slowly be placed on your shoulders, or at least, the significance of it. And considering all things, with how his parents seem to be quite kind, I doubt a scolding from them would be the end of the world, but hey, as I said, he's 22, pretty young.

Most (if not all) of the stats you need/want are actually generated/summarized by the community themselves via (afaik) API's released by the devs or something similar to that. This should be the case for monthly users or stuff related to that. For the game's specific coin usage, adoption, growth, etc., I believe sites where the coin of the game is registered such as Coingecko or coinmarketcap should be enough as sources. Just, gotta stretch some of that muscle to summarize it all. If they were relatively new though then their coin might not even be registered at all, so you just have to wait for those instances.

If you're THAT lazy, then hire someone who knows how to use the chatgpt plugins so the AI itself can access live public data, and return to you a summarized version of it.
