1161  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gamdom.com - 3 Million+ users - Jackpots, Rains - unique games modes on: August 18, 2020, 07:56:10 PM
And, more importantly, did you understand the meaning of this text? You are prohibited from using "the services as anonymizing proxy, VPN or the like in order to bypass the law resulting from the blockade by Gamdom.com countries". Well, it could be written in better terms and wording indeed, but the meaning is still pretty clear. In simple language, you can't use VPNs and similar services if your country is blacklisted by the casino. Let me explain in case there's a difficulty. It is not the use of VPNs as such that is prohibited here, but their use with the aim of bypassing these country-specific restrictions

I simply understand it as :

A player is responsible for any legal case result from using Gamdom.com if his country prohibits gambling.  Gamdom do not encourage players to use VPN or any bypassing tool just to use the site if the resident country of the player prohibits/blocks online gambling

Well, there are subtle differences in our understanding

As I see it, it is not about certain countries prohibiting gambling. Rather, it is about countries that are banned by Gamdom specifically and people trying to bypass this ban by using VPNs, etc. If it really were the way you see it ("if the resident country of the player prohibits/blocks online gambling"), you wouldn't be allowed to use Gamdom at all, through VPN or otherwise. Since VPN's are mentioned and they are used to hide your country of residence, it is evidently the second case, i.e. the casino doesn't want players from the countries they blacklisted, for whatever reason, and irrespective of whether gambling is allowed there or not. At least, this is what follows from this text
Using a VPN is rarely a trouble in most places, I have used Opera browser and VPN on almost every single website, in fact I rarely close it if it creates problems but if it doesn't I always go with the flow and use the VPN and nothing else, even if the website I go to is not VPN related, like even if it is google or youtube or whatever I still have my VPN open, it is a good security thing that you can hide your IP from the outer world if you can and that is what I do.

I have joined many gambling websites with VPN and so far I have not seen any problems at all, maybe the only thing that could cause any problem could be the KYC if asked but even with that you could just show who you are and just say you are using VPN and that shouldn't really be a big problem I think.

They are putting a decent amount to it however the price of bitcoin increased so windice even though sends it fast does cost a bit to get it. That is not windice's fault by the way, the transaction fee's are high so they have to spend a lot of money to send you the money you own.

Also there are other cryptocurrencies, I really prefer to play with them over bitcoin, normally when we are talking about investment I do prefer bitcoin over altcoins however when we are talking about gambling it is a lot easier to just have altcoins and gamble with them, that way you could just gamble very fast and you could withdraw very fast and even deposit. That is just blockchain plus altcoins do not get as much attention as bitcoin. I feel like USDT or whatever stablecoin becomes bigger will be huge in crypto gambling very soon as well.
1163  Economy / Economics / Re: Bangladesh Government Comparing Gaming with Gambling and Cryptocurrency on: August 18, 2020, 06:44:16 PM
Bangladesh Bank just blocked credit, debit and prepaid card purchase / transaction on various video game websites like Steam, Origin, Blizzard and many other third party video games website.
Can't you use different banks? Perhaps your bank is like a government bank or Islamic bank. Not sure how regulations there, but it is surely messed up if all banks behave the same.
Actually in 2014 I believe, Bangladesh banned all the dealings in cryptocurrencies and even stated that anyone who is found to be associated with BTC transactions might have to face some money laundering laws and might get jailed.

Any bank operating in their country would hence never appreciate crypto related services and payments and hence they are actually right to restrict users from doing those transactions. The change has to come from the government because when the government doesn't allow BTC to be legal then there is no way the banks can break their law and allow such transactions. Gambling has been long associated with crypto even if it is not as dominant in the field of gambling.
1164  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trader Cobb's Training - On Digitex Future Exchange on: August 17, 2020, 10:54:18 PM
Futures trading is way riskier than the conventional trading, but it also is more profitable. It is mostly used by the traders or the investors for hedging or trade speculation. At the same time Futures has the potential for great profits but certainly have very high-risk factor. As futures trading obligates the parties to transact an asset at a predetermined future date and price, it is indeed a game of gamble. The cryptocurrencies are sold and bought at a set/determined price by the traders regardless the current market price. Therefore, it’s a small crypto world in itself that basically trades on speculations.

I would recommend using the Binance platform for futures trading as it is high advanced and reputed. Also, binance has insurance against user assets in case of theft or hacking which makes your investment safe. Although, futures trading isn’t available on Binance in some regions so you might want to check that before you opt for it.
1165  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - Casino & Sportsbook - Lamborghini Giveaway! 🚀 🎰 🏀 ⚾ 🏈 🎾 🥊 🎲 on: August 17, 2020, 08:30:38 PM
Still I think it depends on the winner and at the same time that we are talking about the majority of the public, who are not rich enough to get a Lambo, from tax purposes to signing over fee to many other stuff, it would cost a lot but also it is a Lambo so it is still quite free, whatever you are going to pay will not be remotely close to what Lambo would cost you to buy, so it is still almost a free Lambo for sure.
This means what if a whale gambler wins? I guess that they could totally get it, they have enough money to pay for everything and super rich so why not get the Lambo instead of the money, they could totally do that like a trophy kind of thing, winning a Lambo would mean that you can show it off as your gambling win and could justify your gambling as well.

However we all know most of the people here are not that rich and can't afford it, this only applies if a whale wins.

Some others are probably shy and wish to stay anonymous in order to avoid unnecessary attention.

We cannot do anything about that if that is the situations and need to simply move on by respecting their privacy. I guess this will impact on promotion levels of the house as well. Because, if this forum member's one of known/trusted high rank wins means that will work in a massive promotion way but if non-forum member wins and if they opt for being anonymous then that might serve the promotion purposes only half Embarrassed.
1166  Economy / Economics / Re: Cash Is Trash on: August 17, 2020, 07:47:52 PM
Everyone was laughing on Ray Diallo when he said his famous phrase "cash is trash" on 2019 and they even laughed more when his hedge fund tanked 30% under water on early 2020. guess what, US stock markets are bullish again and on a stunning V-shaped recovery and Gold recently hit all time high and bitcoin of course in its way to break new price record. So, who's laughing now!. he was damn right.
I just don’t understand some people lol, you say Cash is trash but you’re still making use of it. When you invest your money in an asset, at last the profit you make will still go back to cash. We should understand that cash is meant to be different, it’s like the price for everything and everything is calculated in real currencies. Cash is not trash, it has its own ways of being useful.

When the market is crashing you will have to withdraw to cash to save your ass, and at that point in time cash becomes very important. You can then buy back when things starts getting better.
1167  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in your ability to earn more. on: August 17, 2020, 05:56:41 PM
Crypto investor is the most less risky job in crypto market that require little of skill or time compared to the trader or other jobs. But to be a good investor, you will need guts and some luck that having skill alone won't work.
You need good analyzing skill though if you are someone who invests in altcoins and retain them for long term because most of the coins will have a definite life span during which they will have a pump and then a dump and one who waits or holds too long is always in loss. This is only and exclusively true for altcoins because bitcoins are always going to rise.

I have been someone who would get hyped and buy altcoins like coinstarter tokens and hope to earn a lot but then fall of my own back so many times that now I hardly invest for long term in any altcoins rather I just buy them and try to sell them once they have reached their peak.

As for long term investment we always have the evergreen and every growing bitcoins.
1168  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The importance of support resistance on: August 16, 2020, 07:55:28 PM
It is very safe to trade with support resistance but when we learn to trade we forget it after learning it or we are not interested in using it. But the use of support and resistance is very important in trading. Many of us run after strategy and forget or ignore the use of support resistance. The market always respects support and resistance or breaks out and moves in an up or downtrend.
I urge new trades to learn to draw support resistance with great care and observe the market to see the results for yourself.
Support and Resistance is important for anyone who is trading. If you’re still a newbie in trading, making use of Support and Resistance is going to be helpful to you in lots of ways. I have seen some analysts who make use of resistance and support to show people when they should sell and when they should buy. If you’re a new trader you can make use of the support level to know when you’re going to buy, or if you’re being short you can take profit at the support level, and take profit at resistance when you’re being long.
1169  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin good for the economy? on: August 16, 2020, 07:20:26 PM
Bitcoins have three useful qualities in a currency, according to The Economist in January 2015: they are "hard to earn, limited in supply and easy to verify". Economists define money as a store of value, a medium of exchange and a unit of account, and agree that bitcoin has some way to go to meet all these criteria.
Nah, there is nothing that is not hard to earn, even the USD is hard to earn man. You can’t be walking on the road and be picking up free dollars, can you?

Nah, you can’t, rather you will have to get a job and work hard to make your dollars; the money doesn’t come free just like that, you will always have to do something to get it. That’s the same thing with Bitcoin, you will have to either work hard for you to be able to earn it or you will use your money (which also came through hard work) to purchase the Bitcoin. And Bitcoin doesn’t contribute to our economy, although it can better the life for people.
1170  Economy / Economics / Re: COVID19 VACCINE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH? on: August 16, 2020, 06:49:59 PM
Things will not get back to normal right away just because there is a vaccine. Remember vaccine is something you get so that corona wouldn't hurt you as bad as it used to hurt people, so it is a prevention and not a solution. People who have it right now would not really be getting any good effects from the vaccination as far as results shows, they are still trying to recover the way we have been for months.

This vaccine would only allow you to be get a prevention shot, like if you are healthy and have no covid virus, you take the shot and if you end up with the virus you will not have this much bad results but something much smaller. Considering how easy it is to get infected the troubles are still there with probably less death, that is ALL this means.
1171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Segwit, and batching, a must in these times on: August 16, 2020, 03:10:56 PM
Yeah, you’re right about that, but it still ends with the big cryptocurrency exchanges and companies, they are usually the ones who make the decision. We can only pressure them to do something, but they will still be the ones to decide if they want to do that or not. I am always in support of everything it takes to move cryptocurrency forward and make things to improve, and this should be implemented to make things easier and also save the cost of transactions. Sometimes I feel Bitcoin is lagging behind in some things, it’s just swimming in its glory as the first cryptocurrency.
1172  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I have Good advice for investors on: August 16, 2020, 08:27:14 AM
I think many fall in FOMO in 2017 and get REKT when we enter the bear market. So yes, it's really hard to fall for it and not doing any research on your part. It's already proven.
By considering crypto is volatile again makes it seem like it was never volatile to begin with. The market has always been volatile for a long time now, and it’s not something that happens once in a while, no it happens all the time and seeming that many some people are entering into options trading in these volatile time and by believing promotions  like it is an easy thing and there are no risks involved and people won’t lose money in it, I am not so sure of that. So, we should not blindly follow any good advice from any people regardless of their reputation levels.

Moreover OP is just going over it like it’s an easy piece of cake that anyone can handle, but it is not. When explaining things like this it’s always best that we talk about both the positive and the negative sides of it, so that people , especially the newbies, who are interested will fully understand what they are getting into.
1173  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: ProBit exchange and their poor support system. on: August 15, 2020, 08:30:46 PM
No matter how good an exchange may seem to be, if they don’t have a customer support team that’s very responsive, then it wouldn’t make any sense.

There are times you might run into problems with their platform and you will be in need of support to solve the problems, since the support is not there, there will not be a means to solve those problems, because you don’t have access to correct those problems. I have seen exchanges that seem good to me, but along the line I discovered that their support team are not ready to assist me when I need them, maybe because they have too many customers or something, I just leave and look for a better one.
1174  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best performing "old" coins on the market? on: August 15, 2020, 07:12:49 PM
Since you can’t find any old coin apart from the ones you have mentioned, why not invest in Bitcoin then? I would have recommended Ethereum, but you said that you’re only looking for old coins only to invest in, so that means you wouldn’t be interested in other altcoins that are new and doing well in the market. Litecoin has been doing really well, it’s the old altcoin I know that has been going strong for long now, maybe you should invest in it.

As for Dogecoin, I have forgotten about it until the time they started talking about pumping it recently through TikTok. Right now if I’m to invest in altcoin with plans to hold it for years, I’d probably be going for Ethereum, it’s like the next Bitcoin.
1175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons Why am I adding as many Ethereum bags as possible? on: August 14, 2020, 07:03:41 PM
I am one of those investors of ethereum and I am on profit side as of now. But except ethereum I invested money in most other altcoins when the train had already left the platform i.e. when they were almost at the peak. All I saw after that was downfall and destruction of my whole portfolio. Till this date I regret my decision but I learnt something very important from it that is do not try to jump in a moving train as its only going to incur damage and nothing else. Always look at the current situation of the market rather than following the trend/hype and pouring the money without and technical analysis.

By considering all these, I guess OP must be doing a prefect thing to make some assured profits rather than struggling with other altcoins how I did in my most of the times in this crypto space.
1176  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Will Dex's Dominate the Cex's in near future? on: August 14, 2020, 02:27:59 PM
You just can’t tell, anything can happen man. But the direction things are heading, I still think that CEX are going to continue to take the lead.

The other CEXs might be behind what Uniswap did, but Binance is very far ahead of them all, and for a DEX to get that high it might be difficult. Why I am saying that CEX might continue to be at the top is because a lot of people are concerned about safety when trading their coins these days and that will lead to them making use of centralized exchanges, especially those that are still newbie, since that’s what they get from making use of those. As for DEX, it will take time for them to get the hang of it.
1177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What are the best coin in 2020? on: August 14, 2020, 09:31:19 AM
I have $2000 from a source. What will be the best coin invest in for 2020? We know there are trending DeFi. But there are more coins which are too low price but there have a chance to win in 2020 end.
Do you have any suggestion for coins to invest $2000?
Why not just invest in Bitcoin? If you don’t have enough money to start diversifying your portfolio, just invest your money in Bitcoin and that’s it. Bitcoin is even a good choice and it’s better than most of these altcoins that people worry about. There are times I just go fully on Bitcoin without investing in any cryptocurrency.

My advice is that you can buy coins that have good potential such as ETH or BNB. in the future if you have information on coins that are low in price and have high potential, you can sell your ETH or BNB to buy these coins
Yup, Binance coin and Ethereum are really good and they have been through major growth as of recent. Ethereum price keeps going side by side with Bitcoin. Ethereum went from a low price and reached up to $400. Binance is over 15% in a month, that’s not bad.
1178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 on: August 13, 2020, 08:02:10 PM
I still think Kamala was both a right choice and a wrong choice at the same time for two different reasons. Biden could have picked a progressive and maybe asked them to bring in the progressive votes in as well, that way Biden would talk to people who are centrist and the progressive VP could have talked to people who are progressive and they could have asked for votes from all democrats, they didn't do that, Kamala is a centrist herself as well and now they probably lost the progressive votes, their only hope is that progressives would vote for Biden because he is not Trump and that is the only thing they can provide.

However at the same time, Biden made sure that he has a running mate basically like him, he definitely picked her because he knows that ALL centrists and even most of independents will want to vote for him now that he basically promises to bring USA back to 4 years ago.

I am also doing same most of time using these RP for bonuses from time to time because no other use of these RP and 100K need nearly 9 to 10 years for redeem which is really hilarious for any single user without any referral and gambling habit on this faucet.

I'm sure this is intended to be like that, otherwise anyone would just bleed the faucet dry after few months.
This gives you incentive to play hi-lo and to bring in new people into the system.
Also, if you claim the faucet regularily, like 15+ times a day every day, you can buy RP bonus which increases your RP gain a lot.
Looking at how much gambling taking place nowadays, we could say that they were once a faucet website only known for their faucet but nowadays they are known for their gambling very well too, look at all the money that goes into dice (well I call it dice but in reality I think it is called hi/lo?) and their betting, in fact on their betting side you can see how much is gambled as well and I think that is not even close to dice neither, yet it is still a lot.

So, I agree that they were once famous for their faucet and that got the attention of many people but after that there was a period of time when they got more and more famous with their own gambling as well. Right now they are known for dice, betting, lottery and lambo thing all together and makes up for many of the users.
1180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Facial Recognition Can Help to Come Out from Bitcoin Social Media Scams on: August 13, 2020, 04:45:35 PM
Facial recognition can help forestall future Bitcoin (BTC) tricks like those that hit Twitter and YouTube, said Rod Hsu, president, and fellow benefactor of the virtual cash stage Coincurve.

https://www.currencytimes.co.in/facial-recognition-can-help-from-bitcoin/
It’s still a good idea, because I know that they are doing all these things to protect people who are making use of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, so that people will be safe and scammers won’t get off easily when they try to scam people with cryptocurrency.

But, this won’t settle well with some people here, there are those who don’t like the idea of having to give out their identity to make use of cryptocurrency, they feel that as long as it’s decentralization that we are talking about here, everyone that’s making use of it has to be anonymous.

Although what I’m wondering is how they plan to integrate facial recognition into cryptocurrency, decentralized exchanges and wallets wouldn’t be doing such thing, only the ones that are Centralized that would be able to do it. Sometimes I think there is really nothing we can do about this issue, the best we can do is to try as much as possible to educate those that are coming in newly into the market, so that they will learn to be careful and avoid scammers.
