It's not much, but I got really happy today with this winning from faucet, as it has been a long time ago since I don't earn anything above the base rewards from faucet and wheel of fortune. I don't know how often other users are getting prizes beyond the base reward these days, but it has also been a long time since I saw someone posting something like this for the last time. It's good to share expressive winnings notices to inspire optimism among the community, so they will feel more motivated to keep trying as well.
...

It's always nice to get a higher reward than the base reward. I can't remember the last time I got a higher reward, but I don't play as often as I used to (I haven't played in months), so maybe that's why I'm not having as much luck... I'm not sure if it's related, but it seems to me that I got more daily WoF spins and better free spin rewards when I was more active and had good wagers while I was hunting for GTs.

...
I guess wetsuit forgot it was today so I'm just about to message him a reminder.

- Six months ago it was like that. And now?

And now it's probably the same, except Wetsuit is older now and probably even more forgetful, that comes with age. Smiley

At some points in life, you don't expect to be thought lessions before you could learn but you can learn from others experiences.

In theory, many things sound easy, but reality/practice is something quite different. What we humans want is to live, and to live means to experience things around us, good and bad. If we took every experience from others how could it be called life?

We all know that we should make plans for the future, but sometimes (rarely or more often) all plans fall through the cracks and we are forced to start from the beginning. As Woody Allen said, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.". So I understand people who feel casual, without any big plans just living their life. Everyone has a right to their own life and I doubt that anyone can say how best to live, everyone has their own wants/hopes/needs/etc.

This fella isn't back to answer the questions that people need to give the best answers...
He was online a few days ago, but maybe he was just too busy spending his winnings Wink
...

Napk1ns is active again after a long silence. I think he asked this question just as a joke. If his words are to be believed, he has been betting with very large amounts for years, so he is certainly familiar with how to transfer crypto to cash and what taxes/fees he has to pay. I really doubt that after betting so much he has no idea how to cash out.

I think he is just messing with people, all his topics are hard to believe, but I guess nothing is impossible in the crypto world. Anyway, after opening a topic he rarely comes back to the same topic, so I doubt we will see him here again. Maybe in some time, he will open another topic with some crazy bet/tip/question.
124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lies told to cover up gambling habit on: April 23, 2024, 08:17:56 PM
There are many sites with these "confessions", and when I read some confessions I ask myself how true it all is. I have read some things and it is all bordering on the truth, the question is whether we can believe everything we read. So I guess many people lie about their gambling habits, and when someone is lying they often get into some kind of trouble. The lesson of the story would be that we should not lie, it always gets us into even bigger problems.
 
So if you lie to cover some "bad" habit, sooner or later everything will come out into the sun. So don't do that... it's better to be honest with the things you do, the more likely you are to find a person who loves you for who you are.

Many are teachers only few are traders. They make their money from selling trading courses, teaching trading classes, creating trading contents for YouTube and other social media. They have their own trading podcasts and collaborate with people like them to talk about trading yet, they have never been successful at trading.

It's the same with everything... there's an old saying in my area that the best coaches were usually bad players, and vice versa. Because they are two different skills, it takes a gift to know how to do something and be good at it, and it is a special gift to be able to pass on some knowledge to others.

At the end of the day, everyone has their own story, so each of us has the opportunity to prove that we are good at something. Instead of criticizing others and whether they are good or not at something, focus on yourself and your results... results are the ones that confirm if someone is good and what they are good at.

...
So if there is a way to create balance and bring more young people to have interest in the traditional workforce what would you think of? I was thinking that increasing minimum wages and granting more benefits like health, rent to mention a few would help.

Well, increasing minimum wages and granting benefits sounds awesome... not just for young people, but for all the workers worldwide. Minimum wages in some countries (including mine) are a complete joke, and since this inflation started going up like crazy minimum wages look like welfare.

It's hard to attract young people to some traditional jobs. What I have noticed is that younger people don't care at all about some things, and I honestly envy them for that. They don't give a fuck about working for little money and having someone give them orders just like that. They know they can find a job that pays better, or at least another job with the same wage but better working conditions. We should all learn more about self-esteem.

Good to see that WEFT token went from 0.015$ to 0.018$+
Thats +20% in 3 days, since it got listed on Pancakeswap!  Grin

Come on Weiss Casino, keep going  Grin Congratulation

It's $0.015 for days... I didn't even notice that increase, it must have been a fast increase followed by a fast drop. I wonder if anyone from here has invested in this token. I have some WEFTs, as always earned from playing.

Well, I think their sales are over, but we still can earn more WEFT by playing and from staking. Maybe I am wrong, but I don't expect any major increase in the price of this token, it seems to be a pretty stable token and I assume it will stay like that.
128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Streaming community are getting worst!!! on: April 22, 2024, 02:05:17 PM
Have you notice? In the streaming community, the influence of gambling is getting worse. Have you noticed that many streamers have started to stream gambling and promote it?

It's a new trend, and the "job" is pretty simple, you can either play gambling games or do whatever you do and advertise casinos on a side. I guess the main reason is because it pays a lot... and if you have a lot of followers, it's serious money. So it's not strange that more and more people are getting into streaming.

I don't have anything against this trend, but I think there should be a way to protect the youngest against this kind of advertising.
Somehow it seems to me that it reaches very young people in strange ways. Of course, we parents should also take care of it and keep our children safe, but it is impossible to watch over them 24/7.
129  Economy / Gambling / Re: Hit the MAX WIN on Zeus vs Hades—$240K payout in crypto! 🚀🚀🚀 on: April 22, 2024, 10:16:23 AM
God damn, is this even for real? 240k ? Just like that? 
...

It's not just like that, the bonus buy was $1600, who knows how many times he bought that bonus... and as we can see from the image he is playing balance is $25k. Looks like he is a serious player, so I think this is not his first big win. Anyway, it's crazy big for most of us... congrats to OP! I wish him many more great wins in the future, I doubt he will stop playing after this. Smiley

Its $5K. That would take around 48days to withdraw everything...

Not as simple as that, he would have to wait close to 5 months because aside the casino has a daily withdrawal limit, there are also weekly and monthly limit. The monthly withdrawal limit for a player is $50k, so if he wants to withdraw all his current balance as shown on the screenshot ($265k) then he will need to wait for more than 5 months ($265k/$50k). Unless the casino give him a special offer to allow $5000 per day without weekly/monthly limit then he will only need to wait for 50+ days for all his balance.

These limits are pretty stupid, especially for people who play with huge amounts like OP. He played and he won, and now he needs to wait 5 months to get his winnings? That's a pretty long wait... and in the meantime, he can play and lose.
130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is the game 'Fortune Tiger' or the little tiger game famous in your region? on: April 21, 2024, 07:12:33 PM
This is the game, I got some images of it:
...
The @Sundderland provided the details and the publisher responsible for this game.
PG soft is the provider of Fortune Tiger with RTP 96.81% and max multi is 2500x.
That game has long been available since 2022 at some of crypto casinos, but 3x3 reel slots are usually not popular.
Perhaps that game is very popular in Brazil because some of the online casino (local) pays many influencers to promote it and the platform.


Jawhead shared a video on the first page... if this is the most famous (popular) game in Brazil they need to check some other providers & slots. Smiley

I mean, PG Soft is neither good nor bad, or it's just my opinion... many other providers have much more interesting slots. I played some PG slots, but I didn't try this one, and after watching this video, I doubt I will ever try it.

And how do you know which providers are popular in a country? I guess someone needs to visit land-based casinos for that, and I don't visit my city's casinos or their online versions, so I don't know which providers are playing around me. I know more about crypto happenings and what we like to play in crypto casinos.
131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Understanding the Impact of Social Media in Gambling. on: April 21, 2024, 05:18:23 PM

I think these influencers must know their target audience before accepting the offer or should not be included in their blogs or videos?

I have small children and when I play a cartoon on YouTube or some TV channel for them, the cartoon is repeatedly interrupted by commercials, and in 99% of cases those commercials are for +18. But YouTube is the worst, gambling commercials where coins are jingling, everything lights up and easy profits are promised. Banks and their cheap loans. And yesterday the cartoon was interrupted by a commercial where some guy sings about whores, drugs, and money in a video where all that is presented... I jumped from a chair to stop it.

So the influencers are not the only ones to be blamed, the owners of these sites should have much more responsibility... there should be some rules & regulations. But when I see what YouTube (one of the biggest) is doing, why would anyone else think about the consequences?
132  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casino vs. Stoc,Forex&Crypto Broker: Who's Really Playing You in the Money Game on: April 20, 2024, 07:27:40 PM
We can use USD if we want to avoid inflation. As i know lots of people in countries with huge inflation exchange usd to their local currency when they need it. In such way cryptocurrencies give us interesting opportunities. We can use USDT if we are afraid of dump, or we can use some cryptocurrencies like BTC and even get some profit while hold it if it pumps.
And it is one of the reasons why we use USD or cryptocurrencies in gambling.
USD inflates too, check the chart of how USD's purchasing value decreases over time. The problem is that USD is usually stronger than local currency in poor countries and since USD's value goes up against the local currency, local people think that USD doesn't inflate and is the best asset.
I know about it. And we can talk about bank deposits, stocks and bonds, but it is far enough from gambling. And USD is the main currency and most stable i think. If you want to have an opportunity to get money fast and deposit it - the best way is your country currency, cryptocurrency or USD.

Quote
Let's jump into it and see what currencies have turned out to be the most stable in 2024.

#1 – Swiss Franc. Currency code – CHF. ...
#2 – Japanese Yen. Currency code – JPY. ...
#3 – Norwegian Krone. Currency code – NOK. ...
#4 – Swedish Krona. ...
#5 – European Euro. ...
#6 – Singapore Dollar. ...
#7 – United States Dollar. ...

USD is not the most stable currency, but for sure it's the most popular currency. It's not hard to check, just google it. It's not like it's a problem as Shield132 said, it's more like a delusion, people in poor countries (and I am in one of them) have a wrong perspective caused by many factors. Anyway, he is also right, you can't avoid inflation by using any fiat currently... for that, you need to find some other more valuable assets. And it's not hard to google them too, you can find some interesting stuff, but the point is about "can you afford them"?

I don't know about you but I buy when long term assets are trending up, like Bitcoin, not when the clear trend is to 0.
You are a little bit too much pessimistic in my opinion....

Well, the charts say he is more realistic than pessimistic. I expected a lot more from FUN, but now I can't say I see anything that can affect the price to rise.

I don't know why it's taking so long to update the info. It's interesting for all of us to know who is the winner and how many tickets he had, isn't it?
11 days have passed and the winner hasn't been determined yet. They haven't even published the tickets list on their twitter.
First, they should publish the tickets list on their twitter and the winner will be determined after 12 bitcoin blocks are mined after the list being published.
Hopefully things will be sorted out positively in coming days because recently we are having too many delays and late updates with admin is not available and @TheQuin is also not responding on time with taking too much time which is wired because many are waiting for this Lambo hopefully this time someone from this forum will be won, and we will celebrate here on this thread.  Grin Cheesy

I do not doubt that everything will be sorted out, but this kind of delay is not good for business at all, who likes to wait? And just to be clear, I never saw the delay as a problem, but when there is a delay and the team is silent about it that makes me start doubting. Why is it a problem to write and describe the reasons for the delay, communication with users should be at a high level if you want to keep users and attract new ones.

...
This is only for gamblers who use bitcoin as the payment method, how is going today? Who among us here can still afford to gamble?

Transaction fees have been expensive for days, and yesterday they went crazy. But it's nothing new, I usually have some alt on the side that I use at times like this. And luckily there are some wallets & casinos that offer different chains, so we can use that option as well.

I guess these high BTC fees can and are problematic for people who gamble only with BTC. But those who are in crypto for some longer time always have some USDT on a side and can use that for gambling at any time with very low fees on some chains.
135  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Casino Game Has the Best Odds? on: April 20, 2024, 11:47:47 AM

Whether you're a seasoned gambler or new to the casino floor, understanding which games offer the best chances of winning can significantly enhance your gaming experience. Share your experiences, ask questions, and get insights into which games statistically give players an edge.
Whether it’s house edge percentages, player strategies, or personal anecdotes, let’s uncover the most player friendly games out there.

All levels of experience are welcome  Smiley

If you are looking for some special winning strategy I will have to disappoint you, something like that doesn't exist. I am the guy who doesn't really believe in "lower/higher" RTP or house edge, I experienced long-losing streaks in all games... simply said, if it's not our night we will lose whatever RTP or house edge is, and vice versa, if we are lucky we will make a profit even if we play games with low RTP slots or in-house games with higher house edge.

I just wish to say that there are no rules when it comes to gambling. What works for some people will not work for many others, what works tonight will not work tomorrow. With luck we can win even if bet against all odds, and if we are not lucky we will lose even with very high chances of winning. So just relax and play, if you win you win... if you lose, well you can always give it a try next time and hope for more luck.

I remember the day that I accumulated 30 matches, I lost 3.

I have tried something similar many times, like many others. 10-15, or even more games with low odds, and to be honest, I can't remember that I ever won some of those crazy parlays. To make things worse I always missed them by a few games.

Well, it was a long time ago. I can't even remember the last time I did something similar. I guess we all learn the same thing sooner or later, it's better to find a few matches with higher odds than to bet on many matches with lower odds, one of them will surely disappoint.
137  Economy / Gambling / Re: COINS.GAME | THE MOST REWARDING CRYPTO CASINO | SPORTSBOOK & CASINO on: April 19, 2024, 07:01:41 PM
Well, hopefully it's like that. I don't have any problem if that's the case. But I hope from the beginning they didn't allow their players to withdraw if they're not KYC verified.
Right now I recommend refraining from playing on this casino website because not only am I having issues with coins.game now, I've read many cases where deposits don't reflect in their coins.game accounts, and there are times when the balances of player's accounts change inconsistently. I will update in this thread once I withdraw my balance. Currently my balance is now almost 700$
...

I am sorry to hear that you have a problem with withdrawal after winning on slots. I also get their promo emails, but I claim only no-deposit free spins, and I haven't had any big wins from them. So I didn't get into any weird situations.

$700 is a nice amount of money, I think you should complete the KYC procedure and then we'll see what they do. I think it's just because of potential bonuses abuse, who knows how many people try to abuse these bonuses? But who knows, it's a bit strange situation... be sure to let us know when you find out more.


@Dennis is not online for a long time after giving a comment on the previous scam accusation without any further explanation.

It's still unclear to me the reason(s) why the casino team decided to leave this forum. I doubt that we will see Denis here again, but I hope I am wrong about that.
138  Economy / Economics / Re: The collapse of central banks...Inevitable? on: April 19, 2024, 04:42:54 PM
If the global economy continues to deteriorate, do you think central banks will collapse? If that happens, it will be the end of Fiat for good. In such a scenario, do you think Bitcoin will become the currency of the world?

What's your opinion? Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smiley

Don't think so. On the contrary, they'll become even stronger. Central banks can only fail if there is a revolution like the French Revolution. As long as people keep being sheeple, nothing will change.

1- Wear a mask > There were more brainwashed mask wearers who fought non-mask wearers.
2- Get a jab or can't travel > Jab takers fought no-jabbers like their life depended on it.
3- Don't use mixers only criminals use them > Sir yes sir I don't wanna go to jail whatever you say sir! Orders sir!
4- Eat plant based meat, cow farts are killing the earth > I can eat pflant shit all day sir!

 Cool

I don't know whether to laugh or cry... You hit the point, this is a hard truth. So many brainwashed people around who still trust that people like Bill Gates will save them. I agree, nothing will change... A revolution requires unity, and there is no longer something that in the world, even between normal people... people are divided in many ways and it is very difficult to reach an agreement that will be respected and last.

So we will continue to slowly sink until we hit rock bottom, if that ever happens. Sometimes I think it would be great to hit the bottom, from there only way is up and some recovery, but that doesn't happen, we sink and sink deeper while wearing masks, eating plant-based meat, who knows what we drink, and air that we breathe. Yes, we definitely need one big revolution...

Luck and winning in gambling can be a tricky topic, I mean some people didn't believe in luck but for me I believe in luck Some credit their success to luck, positive vibes, or even the people around them, while others see it as pure chance or statistics. So if you ask me How does the game of luck in gambling really works? I don't know really  Grin since the luck in my opinion just like market and it is highly unpredictable so if you always luck it is good for you hahahha

There are many games of luck, and it's not hard to find out how they work. In-house (original, instant) games work on a provably fair algorithm, slots use RNG (random number generator)... But how can we get lucky and win is another question. Some people are superstitious, and some don't believe in that, anyway, to get lucky we need to play, and as long as we play we have some chances to get lucky. Chances are not on our side, many people play, and many people wish to win, but it's on us to try and hope that we will get lucky along the way. But never forget it's gambling, and there are no guarantees.

✧ Lock your assets for 365 days
✧ Double your Staking APY

Double the Staking APY for locking the tokens for 365 years is laughable since the total APY for that is just 77% while other tokens in DeFi offer more than a 100% APY without the need to lack the tokens and pure staking.

You should add more rewards that user can claim in daily or regular basis in addition to double APY to make a year of waiting worth it. Maybe add some rewards that related to the casino which user with locked tokens will get.

As I can see there's nothing special about stBFG's except this 77% APY, which is not impressive. So why did they add this new token? Many people expected to see the further development of BFG, but instead of that we got something new... am I missing something?

I will not convert my BFG's for now, I wish to continue with staking BFG to get some other coins not to get more BFG. I wonder if anyone from here plans to convert BFG for stBFG's and lock them for 365 days?
