According to a video I watched on youtube where a guy reviewing Wall street trading institution's documentation of their tradings, It's mentioned in the documents to hold no matter if the price of a particular stock goes 5x or 50x, Just hold that stock even if it goes -100% still hold it.

The document was quite messy and the message I posted above is the short form of a lot of BS written in it, People will get into FOMO and do various trades but rather than trading the stock institutions will keep the track of data of trades.

Well, it's quite tragic for your friend.
Even you can't be blamed for such a mistake because the situation was unaccounted for and the scammer using the Bank account of someone else to pay your friend and your friend sending him payment in BTC sucked.

I haven't used Binance P2P till now but on LocalBitcoins there's a trust system just like Bitcointalk has which indicates the trustworthiness of a trader who made their offer.

It's better to opt for trusted people rather than random strangers, the type of scam that was pulled off on your friend is quite normal in local places.

Recently I found that stake doesn't use a robust Bookmaker while placing their user's bets, they use a third party Bookmaker and share your IP details (Most likely) because I recently found a user's Bets were Void because the owner of Stake was informed by the Bookmaker that the User has placed another bet on the alternative website but similar bookmaker.

So if you're trying to create make a betting bot to select the best odds for you then watch out if there are bets that you place on multiple websites of the same bookmaker, They know your IP address and will track [Your - Bets, IP, Number of Bets] you placed on the websites to always profit by using arbitrage method, And if the gambling website is losing then they will freeze your account.
This is what I've learned from the experience of other gamblers.

After reading most of the replies and the post of Mod on the link shared by Charles-Tim I think it's best if Topics are locked by Global Mods whose OP is not active on the thread.

Can the forum provide an option to the OP of posting the last post before the Post will be locked? For example OP getting the PM by Forum saying something like "Your Post [PostName] will be locked in 24 hours so write if you've anything to say"

Even if it's a lottery and comparing the lottery with dice isn't balancing in this case.
The lottery can have more than a million combinations of numbers and million lotteries but sticking to 1 number for 10+ years and hitting that number is crazy, you've to believe in the number first that it will hit someday otherwise you'll run out of your life trying to hit a lottery by choosing the same number but not hitting it.

It's good that you're accepting but what have you thought about tackling the problem of waiting for 1 confirmation before delivering the products from your clothing industry to the customer.

There's a good possibility of someone buying a good chunk of stuff from you and pay you in the moment then revert the transaction (double-spend), Where he gets to keep the stuff and money.

Do you make them wait for 1 confirmation?
I've seen after some blocks are confirmed next blocks take 40+ minutes for the confirmation.

I wouldn't recommend stake, they use 3rd party bookmakers to place your bets recently there were some users had their bet void because they placed the bet in the same game on another website that used the same Bookmaker.

Anyway, I enjoyed watching last LCS and think about placing some bets in LoL.

But I created Thread to know if the Esport betting with Crypto started with LoL, CoD or there were online bettings going on before bitcoin came.

Mostly these 3 things happen -

1. They invest in a Ponzi and their company runs away with their money.
2. They use some free wallet and again the company run away with their money.
3. They install some trojan through a program they're unaware of and the hacker steals their bitcoins.

There could be many possibilities but I thought it's better to post easy-to-understand ones.

What I think is - If a minority of people does that then there's won't be much of a problem for banks to interfere but when that majority of people starts to switch to crypto from Banks then it will create many problems related to taxing, Remember Tax is very important for a country to run even if you don't like paying it.

And if a majority of people start to evade that then government will interfere and will realize how hard it is to keep track of crypto payments, Taxing it would be very hard and someone can easily evade taxes. Then government might consider banning bitcoin and Hurrrayyy for Banks.

Poker, Dice betting, and Casino games are in the gambling market for a long time but when do you think Esport betting such as  League of Legends and Dota became popular.

League of legends especially..., was released in 2009 the same year bitcoin was released in both are different but have progressed a lot finance-wise.

Do you think Esports betting has a good scope in the future where most of the teens are getting into games like LoL and world of warcraft, Dota, etc?
Even if they don't hear this in ads they will most likely hear it from their in-game teammates.

Recently I visited a post I made in gambling discussion with the title "Gambling exposed to Children"

Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5351790.0

And the thought of replying to a post then realized it has been locked, I didn't remember locking down the thread so I tried unlocking it and it didn't work but gave me a message.

"This was locked by an administrator. You cannot unlock it."

Can it be unlocked or not?

Damn, I don't know how he selected that number but selecting a number and sticking to it forever is good like he did rather than changing the number after a few times of not hitting the lottery.
Imagine if he changed the number then how disappointing it would have been for him.
Keeping that aside I hope he got some good use for the money otherwise he'll just end up gambling them away.

Would like to take 65 if that's available, thanks.

Have any of you heard the recent fuss about Pfizer vaccines, An insider whistleblower doctor said there's a good chance patients might in 2-3 years due to blood clotting if they've taken 2 dosages of it.

I'm not sure what to say about it but I was against the Vaccines the very start and didn't believe in it.
I don't go out that often and haven't faced any symptoms of Covid since its rise are there any other like this?

Well yes I had the same question before I discovered by ETH wallet had around 0.17 ETH in it and in the Past, I didn't send them because the fee was extremely high, more than 50% of what value ETH address had so I left it alone.

2 months ago when I found out ETH has been forked and ETH fees have been lowered I tried to send them to an exchange and it worked, I paid around 0.006 ETH fee rather than paying around 0.09 ETH.

I couldn't agree more, Well crypto is to be treated as an investment now and when bitcoin was created in 2009. You are trading on the future value of bitcoin as crypto at the time and you're investing because you believe in the technology it's going to bring otherwise you're just gambling with crypto with a label of trading.

My review -

Betting & Odds: Placed some bets in the past on the website as I said in my previous review on sportsbook and no problem there but placing bets in 1xgames and not being able to verify the validity of bets sucked a lot for me, could you implement the system to verify the bets on 1xgames, mostly the dice, I am positive you'll get more gamblers who like to verify their bets.

Deposit & Withdrawals: I've placed multiple withdrawals in past and didn't have any issues with regards to it but I would highly recommend being cautious on any gambling website prior placed a huge deposit.

Side notes: As I said in my previous reviews, you really need a good UI, work on that.

So you mean Stake is not a robust Bookmaker and use 3rd party to place bets and users cannot bet on another website that uses the same Bookmaker or there's a chance of the bet getting void?

I don't have anything against Stake but this is insane in my opinion in the first place and secondly, how would a user know on which websites they cannot place the same bets on?

I'll consider making this donation, maybe...


Youtube, lol it's the best way for promoters to promote scams are yet to come and youtube doesn't have a policy that prevents future scams from being happening and websites like Bitconnect are using people to promote their Ponzi schemes and people in my local town promoted a Ponzi scheme to me and I laughed internally without uttering a word and never met that person again, It's more like Subconscious pushing me to get into it that pisses me off.
