Online gambling have grown so big in a very short period of time, I believe that the Covid lockdown played a significant role in this success for online gambling platforms, now many new online gambling platforms are appearing, there are millions of people that are ready to signup today on an online gambling platform.

There needs to be a way for people to be educated about online gambling, because the more people get involved with online gambling, the more bad news we will hear, and many more people will become victims of their own choices.


A person who takes gambling seriously will develop some type of addiction and from there will begin to plan how to make a certain amount of money from gambling, so it's important not to take gambling seriously.

It's crazy to me that I've never seen a gambling platform warn players about gambling responsibly. It's not good for business, I guess.

There is a very thing line between a sad mind and a happy mind, only you can make yourself heal faster with your mind, believe me the mind is a very powerful thing, believe in yourself and you will see everything you hope you hope for unfolding in your life.

You will walk away from that wheelchair one day, if you believe in yourself, you will make a lot of money and become an inspiration for many others in the future if you believe in what you are doing, Bitcoin is what the time and you won't be disappointed.

30 euro seem very small for Bitcoin investment at this time because we only have Seven more months to go and the 2024 Bitcoin price will be higher, it would have been great if you start this in 2022 but do not lose hope, 30 euro worth of Bitcoin per month will be something big if you hold for years.

Is it just me or? Why did I always get better wins from 3rd party Slots compared to in house Slots games? I will go for 3rd party Slots if I have to choose between the two, the experience is almost alike but the winnings and losing are not the same.

Some online casinos have fun Slots games that can be captivating and some have the boring ones that do the same thing over again but the experience from the 3rd party Slots are more addicting, I think they are well crafted than those in house Slots.

3rd party Slots are winning 🏆, this is my pick.

Yep it's insensible as if they are the cause of how you lose on your gambling session. I'm guessing that they are just steaming out the anger and frustrations they have inside to reduce the pain of losing such money but yeah it's not a right way of blowing steam on someone especially if they didn't do anything to cause the losses. It also just make the situation worst and I don't think that doing it is right at the first place. If you can't manage your loses, Asses yourself first on how did you end up on that point and reflect. Blaming other don't really do anything good.
One of the most common humans reactions is denial, whenever people receive some sort of bad news the very first thing they do is to deny that such a thing even happened, and it is not until they have no other choice but to accept the reality in front of them they finally decide to do it, the people described on the OP lost their money against the casino, but since this was not part of their plans they simply thought they could deny the reality and find a way to get their money back, and now they are realizing that doing such a thing can bring grave consequences to themselves.
Denial? It would have been better if someone they love died and they denial the fact that it happened, but going to a casino to gamble is pure intention, they knew what could possibly happen if they gamble, they must have heard a lot of stories about people losing life savings and properties to gambling, yet they put the blame on someone else? Will they wake the hell up if the person they put the blame on was nailed hard for something he didn't commit? I doubt they would, if the person they put the blame up decide to pay the money won't they accept the payment?

Pure wickedness 💯, it has nothing to do with receiving shocking news, this isn't a shocking news, they gamble with their hands and they will either win or lose, what's bad news here? They saw this coming, unfortunately for them they lose.

I stopped my crypto journey way back last year because of so many losses and got busy with my school works,  it was last year in February when I lost a huge amount of my money investing in altcoin and got rugged, I was depressed that time and sad because I lost a huge amount of money which makes me stop my crypto journey and just focus on my study.

Two weeks ago I saw my friend on Facebook posting such luxury and cars he already has and I know that person is into cryptocurrency so I know that he got all those things because of cryptocurrency that inspires me now to continue my crypto journey and I will start it with this forum as I know I can have a lot of lessons and advice here.

I just realized how risky cryptocurrency is, especially for those people who have not yet have good knowledge about it, I've learned from my mistakes last year and j am now here exploring again and will be careful this time.
Last year was 2022, that was not a good time to still be holding coins, in February of 2022 the bears are strongly taking over crypto market and many crypto projects are turning into scam, anyway, you must have learn something from this loss, you probably invested in bad projects is all.

You can still made some adjustment and become a better crypto investor, all you need to do is upgrade your way of choosing projects, say no to anything meme coin and hype, focus on the project utility, the team and the partnerships they have, even if you sell your coins too late or you hold when you should be selling your coins, you won't lose to rug pulls.

Do not follow your friends footsteps, focus on yourself, your friend might be lucky than you, he might be into something more risky than you know, I have a friend who oy know how to flip money between memecoins and he have made a lot of money than I have ever made from crypto, I don't let this bother me because his ways are not my way.

With trading AI technology do have a place in our hearts because AI has proven to be very helpful, I can't wait to see what newer version of AI are capable of, at the end of the day I hope this is the oy thing that AI can do for we humans because I believe that AI can possibly outsmart humans, that's why I believe that we need to be careful with AI technology, giving up the world information for something that's not human is already dangerous, making them more advanced will be even more dangerous.

Mining and AI has nothing in common, there is no way AI could be helpful with mining because crypto mining is algorithm based, meaning even if you build a phantom computer that's blazingly fast it still won't be able to mine Bitcoin, the algorithm needs to be implemented from scratch.

Thats why all Bitcoin miners are build from the scratch to mine Bitcoin only bases on it's algorithm, and any other coins that has the same algorithm as Bitcoin, aka Sha-256 can work with Bitcoin miner too.
1167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How's your gambling experience right now? on: May 09, 2023, 09:39:09 AM
Avoid using Bitcoin to gamble for now, unless the gambling platform supports Bitcoin Lightening Network which is rare, even only limited numbers of crypto exchanges supports deposit and withdrawal of Lightening Bitcoin, now it's time to move back to Tron Network or Lite coin, I am sure that majority of those online gambling platforms supports more than just Bitcoin and Ethereum deposits so do your own research on your favorite online gambling platforms first.

There are some new gambling platform that only accepts Bitcoin and Ethereum deposits for gambling on their platforms, if there are no big gamblers on there platform they will feel the heat of less activity, a smart casino will have add more payment options from now on.

We are not even in a bull market yet and transaction fee has gotten this high, I wasn't expecting this costly fee from Bitcoin this sooner, it's almost the same thing with Ethereum and it's sickening.

Looking for investment method for 50$ daily

Is there online investment that returns 50$ daily
How much are you willing to pay for this return per day? To make 50$ daily is tasking, you should already be in your millions if you are aiming for 50$ daily, can you run a crypto node? There are people making more than this with GALA Nodes for example, but the Node costs over 80,000$ today, the other ways I know are offline, a feed mill business can get you a certain amount per week but you need to spend a lot, because it's competitive, be different and stand out among others then you will make higher numbers of customers.

Other possible ways are too risky, and they won't give you constant 50$ per day, sometimes you can make more and sometimes you will make less, but you need a lot of money to make this type of money per day.

It's always about the profit for many  Grin so yes I've seen many people betting on underdogs instead of the norms, like I've said, it's always about the profit, this is possibly where the biggest amount of money goes into betting, in football games there is a chance of making better money if you bet on small team against a big one, the chances of winning is lower and the odds will be higher, if things go your way it sure a big win.

Those who don't derive fun from their gambling bets and co don't know what they are missing, gambling should be on Funvibe for everyone, it keeps you in good check and it gives you power over your emotions, just have fun, that'd all
1170  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How long the high transaction fees will last? on: May 08, 2023, 03:25:09 PM
I thought maybe I was the only one facing this high transaction fee and never knew it was general, because I started to notice this high transactions fee since last week Friday when I wanted to transfer 0.001 BTC (#12,976) from my Trust wallet into my Binance account where I could sell using p2p into my local currency, and I notice the fee which is most times between the range of #300 to #500 has skyrocketed to #3000, which was way too high and for that reason, I didn't transfer the funds hoping that by today the fee might have gone down, but only for me to check this morning and noticed the fee has gone too high  4x from #3000 to #10,263 as transfer fee, of which with this current high fee, I don't think I will be touching my Bitcoin anytime soon.



Yeah same here too, it's disappointing, I tried to move some bitcoin from my wallet to exchange a day ago and I noticed that the transaction fee has increased a lot, at first I thought it was just some congestion on the network until I started seeing some people complaining on the forum about high transaction fee,

Well now I don't think that will be moving my bitcoin out of my wallet any times for now, I just leave it there and hope that the transaction fee get lower in the future and I read that this have happened before, I believe that some solution will come up and things will go back to the way they used to be, hopefully.
1171  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you consider moving abroad? on: May 08, 2023, 02:33:56 PM
In my country many people believe that moving out of the country is the solution to the problem they have and on getting to the other country started complaining about how the place is not much of a difference then where the left.

The problem Is they believe that the country will be way better than their country and I have seen many people getting stranded in other country because they sold all the properties to get out of their local country and they get broke.

Instead of looking for a solution to their problem in the country they are currently in, they believe that moving out will resolve their problem and on getting there is a new experience for them.

Before moving out of your country make sure that you are really up for the challenge because things will be different and you will still have to struggle to make some changes, the struggle you believe you escaped from is waiting for you in other country.  
1172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Politicians behind the development of gambling platform on: May 08, 2023, 01:17:44 PM
Casino owners are doing tremendous work for some countries and many people don't know it.

there are many politicians in my country that are into the gambling business and they have been running the casino for a long time now, the casinos are now family businesses.

I don't think that the law will go against this person that OP is talking about because one way or the other casinos are benefiting the government in every countries, that is what I heard from someone who knows some casino owners.

Several things are not being told to us by the government, and I don't expect them to do so. In my opinion, they are making sure every casino is up so that they can earn money.
1173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: May 08, 2023, 12:19:07 PM

Hmmm interesting, "people actually depend on gambling to make money " this is a statement I don't like seeing but notwithstanding some Hippocrates feel they can actually make steady money from gambling where as the case is different meaning gambling actually makes money from you on a daily basis. I hate to see people taking gambling as a way to escape from your financial problems because has made many folks become debtors but that I believe happens to only folks that see it as a must-do affair #addiction

Just as much as you dislike it, I don't think anyone is fully in agreement that a gambler should see gambling as a means of escaping their financial problems. Gambling can instead contribute to their financial problems, like being in debt, just as you have mentioned. Although some have taken the risk and got favored with a heavy win, some people have also taken a big risk in gambling, which has landed them in big trouble. Last week I read a thread (I think it was on the Nigerian local board) where a mother and her son were sentenced to prison for gambling off a huge amount of money that was not theirs. Also, there have been a lot of stories on the gambling discussion board about people who have landed themselves in more trouble because they gambled with money that was not their own.
I will like to say that those who landed in  trouble are much more in numbers than those that make big gains from gambling, majority of people that are in my vicinity are in debt because of gambling and most of them are addicted to gambling and they don't know how to put a stop to it.

I once tried to stop someone who is addicted to gambling but they keep promising that they will stop for good because have seen the damages that gambling has done to their life and the yet I was shocked when I found them doing the same thing again.

Gambling addiction is very terrible and probably unstoppable when someone gets addicted to it, it is a very bad thing to get addicted, maybe I've not seen those who are addicted to drugs and I may never be able to compare the two but gambling addiction is terrifying.

There's no point in achieving anything by gambling, because that's where addiction begins. All those addicted to gambling want to be something great in life, but choose the wrong path. 
1174  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: More exchanges shutting down, Hold your Asset with You on: May 07, 2023, 11:25:56 AM
With the type of thing that FTX company have caused many to investors this year I did not expect anybody to leave their cryptocurrencies on any crypto exchange again but if they are still doing the same thing and they failed to see it as a red flag then it is their problem.

I will not feel pity for such people because they have been warned several times not to leave their coins on any crypto exchange, especially centralized exchanges that are not very popular, they can fold up at any time and not all of them will pay for the mess they have created.

FTX bring tears to the eye of many investors and there is a rumor that few people can't digest the loss and they took their lives, you don't need to be told that you should remove your crypto assets from ant exchanges.  
1175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling or gaming sites on: May 07, 2023, 10:53:05 AM
These websites are too strange to me and I will feel unsafe to send any deposit to such weird-looking websites, where are you guys getting your confidence? I will like to know, because OP you should not talk about these websites in the first place, how can you trust such websites? The links are not even protected, this is a big read flag because something malicious can be injected into your browser through is websites. If you are on a PC do not open those links.

Some gaming websites works in the same way as playing a roulette on a gambling website, but the difference is some games are skills-based, the better you are at playing the games the higher chance you have to make some money fast.

I voted for we'll reputable gambling platforms and projects, if you use one of the websites that OP dropped on here you are at your own risk, even if something goes wrong there is no way you can tackle the devs, they are unknown, the reason why this forum is reliable is because those projects can be embarked on here, if they care about their accomplishments they will solve your problems.
1176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we should play on minor gambling platform? on: May 07, 2023, 09:13:51 AM
A popular gambling platform is a lot safer than minor gambling platforms, popular gambling platforms have build their strong foundation and reputation, you will be comfortable gambling on such platform and you will be able to see and read a lot about what other gamblers are facing playing on such gambling platforms.

Minor gambling platforms have a long way to go, they are less reliable and you won't know which one will operate for long and which one will close down any time, I find it hard to trust minor and new gambling platforms because of these.

There is a possibility of getting good gambling results on minor gambling platforms because they are still looking for customers and they can make winning a bit easier for gamblers, the thing is you can't beat them at their own games, but if you are losing money on some gambling platforms your can try your luck on minor ones.    
1177  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Avoid Ponzi/Ponzi scheme is a scam on: May 07, 2023, 07:22:48 AM
This is not happening with Nigerians only, many people from different part of the world are into HYIP ( High Yield Investment Plan ) and by the time goes on they crash on new people, oy those that get into the game from the launch date will make some money and exit the scheme before it's too late, I was into HYIP before I know about Bitcoin, I started with USD before Bitcoin payment was allowed and I got greedy, hoping that my daily money enter my account, one day the earth stood still. Before I knew what's going on the website is no more working.

There is always a first lesson to be learned, either the soft way or the hard way, but that's not the issue, the problem is encountering the lesson and not learning from it, when this happened to me I made a promise to never go back into such again.

I am using Google Authenticator till this day and I have no single problem using this Authenticator application, I have use 4 different types of android smartphones and I have import my Google authenticator account from one phone to another till this day I have no single problem using Google Authenticator on those phones.

People are worried that Google 2FA authenticity now have backup using Gmail account I don't have to be worried because the only account that I store using Google Gmail are crypto Exchange account.

if you are worried of losing your funds on crypto exchange use more than Google 2FA Authenticator, you can add up an extra withdrawal PIN code on binance exchange for example or set up your phone number as extra security before withdrawing on the exchange.
1179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The purchase Bitcoin during its early stages. on: May 04, 2023, 09:18:00 AM
Isn't it amazing how some people believe in Bitcoin at the very early stage of his life cycle ? The whales decide to buy some amount of Bitcoin and held on to it for a very long. They believing that with time it will increase in value, I don't know where they get their confidence from.

They never doubted that bitcoin may fail that is why I believe that some people are very smart, Satoshi nakamoto the creator of Bitcoin also have this feeling that bitcoin will become a successful digital currency, if I am as smart as I am right now in 2011 I would have bought a lot of Bitcoin without thinking of any possibility of the technology failing later.

I believe that crypto is not for the weak ones but sometimes we just can't help it because we lack the understanding of some things and it's fine, bitcoin is a good store value better than Fiat and some other currencies but the main reason why I get into bitcoin was because of the ability to generate extra income out of it, if I had known that bitcoin could become a good value I would have risk everything I had.

Right now it looks like it's too late already, but believe me it is not, very soon every little inch of Bitcoin we have a bigger value than you could ever imagine.

 So till today this person is working free how can someone who did something like this work for you without facing the law or any punishment this is not fair this is why I have different set of feelings about gambling platforms you can never know if they are cheating or not and for the fact that gambling can be easily rigged by influencers or bad actors is why I dont always feel ease gambling with so much money

The best way to gamble safely is by using the exact amount of money that you are willing to lose for the time being and do not try to gamble again thinking that you will win because it is always the house that benefits not the gamblers.

imagine this type of situation that op is talking about, I am sure that some people must have used a big amount of money to place the bet and they will be shocked afterward if they know what really happen, some people can go any lent to win a game illegally all in the name of money.
