1. They can use more secured ways to identify the real identity of their customer, the best thing to do here, aside from valid ID is they should add "take a selfie" on identity process.
2. They can also set a time limit of playing for a player, give notification if this would be their last game anymore for today.
3. Set a notification showing how long they've been playing.

With these kind of features, they might actually help or lessen the addiction of a gambler.

The first point is okay because it is just an addition to their verification process but the rest 2 points are a spoiler.
Why would any casino site implement these features by which their business might go down.
Setting a time limit and showing a notification of their gameplay duration are signs that people will spend less time on the site.
This will directly impact their revenue and no casino site would want that to happen.
If gambling sites start caring for their users it will eventually disrupt their business.

UPDATE: A MISSED PENALTY AND A LOSS. BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD.

Ouch! That hurts a lot losing $90k in one bet i can’t imagine how do you feel right now. I can’t understand why you didn’t take that money with all that effort turning out 4k only to 90k and enjoy them in a long vacation Xd.
You clearly have much courage and previous experiences as this one since you made it and updated your posts, not many people can do that and handle first the stress before the match and the bad feeling of losing. If it was me honestly i will be broken haha. We would like to see all your betting journal you started from 4k.
I hope it’s an experience for you that was so expensive and make you think twice before gambling too much,

Greed makes one blind. While he had the opportunity to get a handsome amount of money in his bank account he chose to go for more.
Either he is too greedy or he is ultra rich and $90k isn't a big deal for him.
I think he is already a rich person and hence he had bet all in on $90k and didn't care much about his losses.
There are many such people who bet big and lose big and don't care much about their losses.
1083  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it a mistake to make a separate Bitcoin channel on YouTube? on: June 03, 2023, 03:06:49 PM
I took note of all the various comments in my recent threads, and many thanks for those. I'm planning my YouTube channel at the moment, and it seems to me that a dedicated Bitcoin channel is not a good idea. I very rarely watch them any more, as they seem to be contradictory, and often over complex, and many of them seem to show a lack of understanding of the purpose and technology behind Bitcoin. There seem to be 3 main categories of Bitcoiners ( apart from undecided newbies of course), and these are speculators, businesses and weath protectors. I don't want to target the speculators, as those are either gamblers or highly technical statisticians. My advice to business users is to embrace Bitcoin as an efficient means of international payment, but they may be advised to sell their Bitcoin receipts to avoid losses as a result of its volatility. My target audience is van dwellers, and others living offgrid, and who are considering Bitcoin as a form of saving and wealth protection.

So, should I accept that Bitcoin has now become an established medium of exchange and savings, and just include videos about it in a general offgrid camper channel?  The alternative would be to create a dedicated Bitcoin channel, and thus have to compete with all the established Bitcoin channels. I've also got a problem with the new GA4 Google analytics. Should I include my Bitcoin websites in my Offgrid Camper property, or, again, would it be better to have a financial property for Bitcoin? My preference is to keep things simple, and include bitcoin in the broader social channel in both instances.

I have read you previous post about starting a Youtube channel realted to bitcoin and start earning bitcoin from it.
To be really honest, I am not really convinced with the idea. I know you don't have to convince me either and I am not discouraging you or anything like that.
But just tell me why would anyone watch your channel when there are already so many channels and speakers explaining about bitcoin.
What difference would you bring to the tabler ? I think you should do something different if you really want people to watch your videos.
Something unique which has not been done till date would bring up the interest in people and make them watch your videos. All the best.

Another so called crypto trading expert with no proofs to show boasting about his success in trading.
If OP is so profitable he wouldn't need others to come to him. You can invest yourself and get the profits for yourself.
If you seriously want people to belive you then you should show your trades and your profits.
Without that nobody is gonna even take your seriously.
1085  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: First time and how I got interested on it on: June 03, 2023, 02:50:43 PM
I heard Bitcoin in 2021, and I was introduced to Bitcoin in 21:10:2021 by my friend, the first time when my friend introduced me to Bitcoin I was not an interested, because
of fear, and I don't want to be scammed.


But later I start to have an interest on Bitcoin, because of the way my friend is living his life. But when I start to have an interest on it, my friend who was positioning me, travel out or let me say relocate that is how I missed my chance to learn Bitcoin more dipper.


And  according the (Linguistics) they said opportunities comes but ones that is how I lost my opportunity. I don't want miss this chance now. This year is my third year anniversary in  Bitcoin, but I'm not perfect to invest, but I will try my best to learn more and to acquire more  knowledge, and learn how to invest.



I thank God that I search or found this forum, and also
I appreciate my gee who advertise this forum to me. I believe I will learn more from forum.

Do no think that you missed the opportunity because it's always a good time to learn about bitcoin.
Yes, you should look for a good entry point to start investing in bitcoin but you can always start learning about it whenever you want.
You are at the right place because this forum will give you enough knowledge to get started with bitcoin and get the basics cleared.
After that, it just depends on you how deep you want to go. You are lucky because bitcoin is almost half the price when compared to it's ATH price.
So the buying opportunity is good right now and you can save some capital to buy more later instead of going all in.
But yeah, before buying bitcoin get all the basics cleared about, wallets, transactions, address, private keys etc...
1086  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: He Committed Suicide After Losing School fees, And That Of Friend To Betting.. on: June 03, 2023, 02:37:20 PM
It's really a shame, this is really one of those sad stories that really tell the dark side of sports betting and gambling in general, I could not help it, but had tears rolling down my cheek while reading this story..

Another future father, a future millionaire maybe, young 22 year old boy with a promising future lost to suicide after losing his school fees, and that of his friend to sport betting due to gambling addiction..

We are in the 21st century, until when before people realize that suicide does not put an end to problem, but rather create more for those living??

This is really a sad story though, ya all can read it on https://punchng.com/how-ogun-student-committed-suicide-after-losing-school-fees-to-sports-betting/?utm_source=telegram&utm_medium=social

I hope we all as gamblers learn a thing or two from this, and go back and look at our gambling life and see if there is a thing or two that needs to be adjusted..
I pray non of us, and any of our relative shall ever be a victim of such a sad story 😢😢.

Don't you think this might be the reason our parents and life partner get angry on us when they find out about our gambling habit.
Gambling has taken many lives and just think if you had a child who lost his life just because he lost his school fees in gambling, what would you do ?
Everyone will blame the parent because its them who had to keep an eye on their child and his habits.
It's sad to see people losing their lives because of gambling especially the young ones.
1087  Economy / Gambling / Re: Question about casino, sports bet on: June 03, 2023, 02:10:28 PM
Hi, i would like to know if there is any android application for casino sites, sports bets where you can bet with crypto thanks

Are you looking for android applications in particular, if so, then I must ask you why ?
If you are looking for casino platforms which can be accessed from an android phone then there are plenty.
Most of the reputable gambling sites are mobile friendly and so you can directly access them using your web browser.
So there shouldn't be any need for andoird apps in particular when the same website can be run on desktop, android and iphone/ipad.
1088  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Risk management on: June 02, 2023, 05:29:17 PM
When trading there are rules to observe in other to protect your margin, it's more like if you can't make more money, don't lose the one you have,
 That's where risk management comes in handy.
    The strategies are;


_ Don't risk too much money, start with what you can afford to risk. Focus on the risk not rewards.

_ Identify potential risk as;if it goes down, if you don't take profit, if you don't use stop loss and if the coin goes against your analysis.

_ Reacting to risk, use stop loss and always take profit.

A wise investor once said, protect your capital and never lose it. If we lose some trades that is completely okay.
It's normal to lose trades because that's how we learn but we should never lose all of it which happens when we don't use stop losses.
Then comes the harder part of taking profits which is a skill not everyone has.
1089  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 7 tips to know about crypto trading on: June 02, 2023, 05:26:15 PM
Most things newbies don't know about crypto;

_ crypto trading is not a get rich quick scheme, it's a process and to be a profitable trader you must follow the process.

_ Never borrow money to start crypto trading, because it's very wrong to be trading under pressure.

_ Never give your coin to someone to trade for you, there is a high probability of you getting scammed.

_It is inevitable to hit losses at some point in the crypto market, it's just normal and it happens in any other kind of business.
What makes you a profitable trader is the ability to make more profit than losses.

_ The more money you put into crypto trading the more money you get and also there is a high risk losses without proper risk management in place.

_ Determination, consistency and practice makes you a better trader.
Don't despise your little beginning.

_ Learn to master your emotions.

These tips are good and anyone can get these suggestion just by a doing a small research.
The harder part is to keep it mind when we are actually trading and hardest thing is to implement all of these as a habit in our trading journey.
Most of the people lose money in trading because at the time of trading they just lose their emotions and forget that they have to follow the process.
Discipline and patience plays a vital role here and without that we will keep losing money.
1090  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Making a x10 or x100 by short selling on: June 01, 2023, 04:47:07 PM
Hi there is a lot of talk about finding opportunities to make a x10 or a x100.

But I think it is easier to make a x10 by selling short...any tips to get the best ROI possible by selling short?

How can I know which coins would have earned me x10 if I had sold short in the last few months?


I know you might be thinking that earning profits through short selling is way faster than with buy low sell high strategy.
I feel the same but then it's hard to find opportunities to short sell. It's a little easier in a volatile market but realtively tough in a sideways market.
You should mostly choose coins which are going up quickly and then wait for a reversal.
This when you can spot an opportunity to short sell and get a quick profit. Do not forget to use a stop loss.

1092  Economy / Gambling / Re: Are betting companies using T&C against their customers on: June 01, 2023, 04:34:42 PM
It is already becoming  increasingly worrisome, maybe not to everyone but personally to me at the rate at which betting companies are using terms and conditions  against their customers and there a recent case with the link below
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5454460.msg62324285#msg62324285
Most times i think since most users don't take out time to read the terms and conditions of platform before jumping on it, most betting companies  steal money from their customers with claims that they broke their terms and conditions and the case with the link above annoyed me so much because I felt the support term wasn't helpful enough as I was expecting  them to point out the T&C that was broken to the player rather than just lock his account and seize his money.

Now I wish to know if these companies  play on the weakness of their customers using T&C to rob them and has anyone else experienced  this ?

Yes they are. They do freeze the account of users whom they think are involved in shady activities.
This involves money laundering, abusing their platform, multi-accounting, using VPN etc...
Most people fall into the trap because they don't read their terms and conditions.
There is no way around to point out the sites' fault.
1093  Economy / Gambling / Re: is KYC data on Gambling sites safe? on: June 01, 2023, 04:19:56 PM
KYC data is a sensitive information and we must be really cautious when chosing to disclose it to any platform.
Many of the gambling sites turn out to be a scam which is why we must only give our KYC information to trusted and reputable sites.
As a precautionary step, we can read their privacy policy to know how they handle the KYC data but nobody gives the time to read those policies these days.
They simply give the KYC data without any concern and sometimes end up falling in trouble because of that.
So we should always try to stay on the safer side by only using trusted and reputable sites.
1094  Economy / Gambling / Re: Using ToS against users normal? on: May 31, 2023, 04:27:34 PM
Changing of terms and conditions without notifying the users or gamblers is normal with online gambling websites? Then when you did something wrong or about to withdraw your money they will tell you that you don't read their terms and conditions, and you start arguing with them until you decide to read the ToS again and you find out that it's different.

Some gambling websites consist of wicked owners that willingly plan to defraud their users using the ToS against them, or is this normal? Have such happened to anyone on this forum before?

I haven't heard of any case till date where the terms and conditions were changed without notice to their users and then any user was in trouble because of that.
Whenever there are any changes in any terms or conditions then their users are sent a notice through email of the same.
The email shares the changes or link to the new terms and conditions and this is done so that the users are aware of the new terms.
If any site is not following this approach then the site owners are at fault.

Here's my stats:



And, actually, with more 10k free rolls played now I'm waiting for that 10000 number to pop up any time soon. Smiley

I just checked my stats on freebitco.in and it's just 4.5k rolls on the faucet.
I guess I have been playing a lot less on freebitco.in when compared to you guys.
But right now my focus is on earning more RP because I have reached 95.5k RP.
Just when I reach 100k RP I will be exchanging that for some nice sats.
1096  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 31, 2023, 03:50:37 PM
The target set by Gujarat Titans was certainly a good scare. But if 20 overs game was played then the match could have changed a bit. However, Chennai Super Kings performed well from the first 12 overs but fell a few wickets in the last 3 overs and at that time Gujarat Titans managed to come back into the match as the last two balls of the last over were in favor of the batsmen resulting in two boundaries to seal the win favor of CSK. In yesterday's match, captain Dhani could not show his ability in batting but the team once again confirmed the IPL win.

The comeback was indeed great. Although MS Dhoni was not able to showcase his talent in the finals yet his team won the match.
We cannot really say if the same would have happened if the overs were not reduced.
But I guess it was their luck and hardwork that lead them to victory. Jadeja showed an outstanding performance too.
It was definitely worth the finals and it couldn't have been better.
1097  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Failed DCA Strategy When Buying Bitcoin on: May 29, 2023, 04:31:05 PM
The owner of this address bought a million dollars worth of Bitcoin every day from August 11, 2021 to January 1, 2023.

https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/address/bc1qw0pswznckx7s6tjmd2f5hrx4q6kc5nyrdxku50
Received:   17,536.2628 BTC (517 ins)   first: 2021-07-25   last: 2022-12-28
Sent:   17,536.2628 BTC (517 outs)   first: 2023-01-01   last: 2023-03-05
Profit from price change:   -239,395,601.9 USD

Approximately $460 million was spent buying Bitcoin, resulting in a loss of over $239 million. Perhaps this investor did not know that the DCA strategy is better to use for a longer period, or perhaps he found a more profitable investment.

Different people have different opinions and it doesn't matter if the current value of his investment is low.
It would definitely increase by a lot when the price of bitcoin increases and since he would have a good average price by then, his investment would yield him nice returns.
Timing matters in any kind of investment but DCA is a great strategy if we invest for a long term.
1098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 29, 2023, 03:51:42 PM
The final match of Indian Premier League has started today. Chennai Super Kings won the toss and decided to bowl. Gujarat Titans batted first and set a target of 214 runs in 20 overs. Gujarat Titans gave a great performance in batting. Now if Gujarat Titans can perform well in bowling.  Then it will be very difficult for Chennai Super Kings to surpass this run and win. Whoever wins today's match will win the first place in IPL.

214 is indeed a great score and if CSK doesn't give an outstanding performance then they will definitely lose the match.
It all depends on how CSK bats now. Many are saying that Gujarat Titans will win the match because it is scripted.
But I hope CSK wins because I am a supporter of CSK.

Hi, I hope you are all doing well. I am a teacher and teach students about IT. But from my job, I cannot fulfil my expenses that why start learning about Bitcoin the last 3 months my friend told me about the Bitcointalk forum in start working on bounties but not earned any money yet Now he said to make post other section will help me to trade and earning. I read the rules before posting. Can someone guide me on how I manage my time and earn money from trading what is an effective way to start?

Time management is an essential skill and I know how tough it can be to manage time and trade while doing your day job.
One good thing about crypto is that it runs 24x7 and this gives us a benefit to trade whenever we can.
So whether you do day trade or swing trade or anything you just need to spend 1 hour a day.
You can choose any flexible time as per your convenience and spend 1 hour to learn and analyse the market.
Always put your trades with a stop loss because when you are working on your day job then it's the stop loss that will limit your losses.

There are rumours that Dhoni might be banned from playing the finals against Gujarat Titans tomorrow.
If the rumours are true then there will be a huge disrupt in the fan base because we all know MS Dhoni has a huge fan base.
They are saying that Dhoni might be fined for wasting time intentionally in the qualifiers round against Gujarat Titans.
I won't even want to watch the match if Dhoni isn't playing.

Source: https://www.thestatesman.com/sports/csk-captain-dhonis-ipl-finale-in-doubt-as-ban-looms-for-time-wasting-1503185312.html

This would be a disaster if MS Dhoni is not allowed to play the final today. And the reason for this is also ridiculous because we already have rules for slow over rate. There is no rule that if the over rate is slow or someone is suspected of delaying the match, could be ruled out in the next match.

If this happens Gujarat Titans will most likely win today's final and Chennai super kings will never accept their defeat with this controversial decision.

So far the rumours are still not confirmed from BCCI spokesperson yet and this is a sign of relief that MS Dhoni might be playing today's final.
Let's just hope he is in the match. I personally think the fight will be tough today to win the match.
There are rumours that Gujarat Titans will win the match because it is scripted. LOL.
