Unlike third-party slots, changing seed is easy on house games and it has some effect on overall result. Like you can hunt 1mlnx limbo and one seed can hit it in first 1000 rolls while another unlucky seed can go over 10mnln nonce without single hit.
I know that changing seed in house games is pretty easy, but it won't influence the result in any manner whatsoever. What you stated is classic gamblers fallacy. It all comes down to luck in 100% luck based games at the end of the day basically.
Change of seed gives you the choice to make a prediction. This doesn't assure with profit, because gambling is cent percent money dependent where luck needs to accompany. If not the loss needs to be accepted.
Focusing on bankroll management is key here.
You must focus on bankroll management only if you wish to extend your sessions for as long as possible and have fun simultaneously.
Bankroll management is really a must, because while we're into gambling when there happens an emotional failure, surely the respective person needs to communicate and get out of iit.

Kenya have made a good decision in power generation and requesting investors invest on cryptocurrency mining out of the geothermal energy. There are discussion of transmitting the excess power generated, so that it'll bring revenue. But the real-time difficulty is big through the massive transmission loss. During the previous year Kenya have marked the highest power loss during the domestic transmission and distribution. It roughly account to 23% of the electricity produced during the year. This is why investors are asked for making use of the excess energy generated.
1203  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Solana has two power outages in a month, causing prices to plummet on: June 03, 2022, 11:23:09 PM
Solana is praised to be the ethereum killer while reaching the market based on its processing of transactions. Solana process far higher number of transactions than the ethereum, but this outages will be a big blow for the platform. In several discussions it is said that solana will takeover the popularity of ethereum, but ethereum won't allow it to happen if this is how the network performs. Even Sam Bankman Fried, FTX founder stated solana has the ability to scale to the mass adoption level of bitcoin. For now everything is a question mark.
1204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The digital ID for Gambling on: June 03, 2022, 11:15:10 PM
^ I also thinking of this, probably this ID system will matter only of having taxes and people should pay tax and the government will always benefit on this.
However, that is the disadvantage that I have seen here, if you will analyze the ID system will help the gamblers and also the gambling platform upon scamming for both parties. there is no scam for both or any illegal activities because they are both under the control of the government. I want to hear an update on this like after a year or in several months, if there will be improvements much better, it could also other countries will follow of what they did.

If not for taxes, why will they implement uid verification for a gambler who enjoys playing in his leisure time, you know some casino platforms don't request KYC before withdrawal and there are some countries who licence these platforms to operate in their jurisdiction but many of them wouldn't want to undergo verification since they don't want the government to have a cut in their winnings, smart move.  Grin Grin
I think some people may want to do this but users who know the implication of privacy dump wouldn't try it, beside it is not a compulsory task before you can engage in gambling, it may even die if it's not worldwide.
We find the primary concern is to stop the underage people from gambling, but the reality is different. The measures were a beginning to end the taxation issues arising out of gambling. When KYC is done using the digital ID automatically each and every play is being monitored and based on the profit/loss one can be taxed. As mentioned this isn't mandatory which gives a relief to the gamblers.
1205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What altcoin will go 10x this year? on: June 03, 2022, 11:08:30 PM
Altcoins always follow the market trend of bitcoin. Based on the changes happening with bitcoin, there'll be growth variation on altcoins. As of now we can't get to conclusion on which coin will mark 10x growth. For sure majority of the altcoins will reach this when the market turns bullish. Most of the new projects will make an entry by this time, so that they get the right time to make a pump in their projects. Finding some potential projects with legitimacy could be a good pick.
1206  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 4.45 million bitcoin untouched for 5yrs,do BTC community can retrieve in future? on: June 02, 2022, 10:05:26 PM
We can't get into conclusion those bitcoins that weren't transacted for 5years is a lost one. Among that will be coins that are kept hold for years.

To retrieve bitcoins that are being lost is impossible thing. These days we've got some people claiming that they'll be able to get back stolen and lost bitcoins. Don't believe it.

If this gets added up to the circulation, we'll experience an increase in the volume as well as the dominance level.

James Howells accidentally threw his hard drive during an office cleanup in 2013. He have been struggling hard to find it, even reached NASA for help. Similar incidents can be found and this can be considered a lost one.
1207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: June 02, 2022, 12:32:59 PM
The president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Sourav Ganguly, set the record straight as he finally unveiled what his cryptic tweet on Wednesday was about. The former India captain launched an  app "Classplus" which will give educators, teachers, and coaches a platform to monetize their content.

Ganguly, President of BCCI have explained about his tweet. He hasn't left BCCI, and he have launched an edu-tech app "Classplus" which is for the educators, teachers and coaches to monetize their content. Everyone are sure about the market situation and have well understood about the ongoing trend of online education. As a result Ganguly have started his own education app. Soon we can see him promoting the app during the match break.
1208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: June 02, 2022, 04:44:10 AM
Ganguly was shitposting  Grin

It turns out he's just starting a new marketing venture, nature of venture is still unknown. There were some rumor of his resignation or may be joining politics. Like getting Rajya sabha ticket from BJP or TMC.

I won't be surprised if he is nominated to the Rajya Sabha. However, the candidate list is already announced and Ganguly's name is not there. And more importantly, there are no elections to West Bengal Rajya Sabha seats this time, which would rule out the possibility of TMC nominating him (chances are very low anyway, as the relations between the two sides are not good). One possibility is that 7 of the nominated members of Rajya Sabha completed their term on 24th April 2022. Their replacement is yet to be announced. There maybe a chance that Saurav may be nominated there.
His tweet has been connected and the same got viral that Ganguly has resigned the position as President of BCCI. If he is to be nominated, he should resign as a president. I'm not sure, is there anything like one cannot hold two positions. In my opinion he can resign and give path for others, because there were big expectation over his activities. Finally everything happened same as the past. Nothing big has changed.

Congrats @bitzizzix your lucky child have reached the world. Birth is an unforgettable moment, and for you this is more special for few more reasons. Through his birth your child have made you experience spending in terms of bitcoin. The birthdate looks really special with  June 02/2022. You've got a person in contact who is using bitcoin (The Doctor). Take care of Mom and Kid.

I have come across similar incident, but the amount isn't that big to make a difference. At some critical situation I searched and recovered $50. By that time it was really helpful, and myself too had the recovery seed in the form of screenshot. As different users mentioned it isn't good to have our recovery seed in the form of screenshot, but that was the easy way to have it stored in a separate folder than copying it on a notepad.
1211  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Computer Scientists say Crypto Industry is Misleading??? on: June 01, 2022, 11:40:41 PM
According to few popular computer scientists the crypto industry is misleading the public about blockchain technology.
The list were has 26 computer, Harvard lecturer Bruce Schneier, Microsoft engineer Miguel de Icaza and Google Cloud’s principal engineer Kelsey Hightower were few among them. This team of Computer Scientists have given a letter to the US Officials.

These Computer Scientists have given few statements on cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology.

  • "The claims that the blockchain advocates make are not true. It’s not secure, it’s not decentralized. Any system where you forget your password and you lose your life savings is not a safe system.”
  • “We urge you to resist pressure from digital asset industry financiers, lobbyists and boosters to create a regulatory safe haven for these risky, flawed and unproven digital financial instruments"
  • "Crypto-assets have been the vehicle for unsound and highly volatile speculative investment schemes that are being actively promoted to retail investors who may be unable to understand their nature and risk.”
  • The computational power behind blockchain is the equivalent of what one could do in a centralized way with a $100 computer.
  • “We’re essentially wasting millions of dollars worth of equipment because we’ve decided that we don’t trust the banking system.”

What about your view on these statements?
1212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: June 01, 2022, 04:38:22 PM
I just watched first 2 sets of this clay classic and it was extremely good tennis from both Nadal and Djoković. Some points were borderline impossible. I expected Djoković to do better after winning that 2nd set but obviously Nadal likes his king of clay mantle and doesn't plan on relinquishing it soon.

Djokovic started the match really bad and didnt look like himself at all since the beggining of the match. Later on he played really good but those missed set points on his serve in the fourth set costed him the win and to make the match longer. Now a rough match against Zverev for Nadal
It looks like Djokovic hasn't come to the form once after the covid-19 vaccine issue that kept him away from playing few tournament. The sets were won consecutively, and the same made the match more interesting. Finally Nadal was able to make it after hard fight. This year looks to be good for Nadal.
1213  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador will be the richest country in the world in 8 years? on: May 30, 2022, 11:58:38 PM
It all depends how much bitcoin  El salvador is able to hold as the bitcoin in long run, as it has economic liabilities as well. Yes I do agree that early investments  by El  Salvador will bear fruits for it in future. But to become a rich nation they need more than just crypto investments, they need to focus on becoming productive in terms of investing technology and industrializing their nation
The Center for Citizen Studies of the Francisco Gavidia University in El Salvador have made a survey. Out of 1300 respondents interviewed it is possible to see more than 50% still getting stuck with USD. It is the President Bukele who have been taking more measures to make the country progressive through bitcoin adoption. For now we don't know the situation, but in the long run surely the country is gonna benefit. In my view the country people haven't got unified, based on the survey response. The positive growth can be experienced only when the whole population believe in it.

Most Salvadorans Still Prefer US Dollar over Bitcoin
1214  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I buy BTC or DCA other coins? on: May 30, 2022, 11:30:08 PM
I think it's a good habit that if you want to DCA in a bear market, it's best to collect BTC instead of alts that may nose dive even further compare to BTC. Time has tell that it was always the case, there might be some alts that was still up or doesn't lose much of its value but that's a rare stuff to see, most are getting lowered. Make your portfolio having the large asset in Bitcoin, recommended.
At the moment bitcoin is experiencing a small recovery and it is trading above 31k right now, it is still a very good price to enter the market or to employ the DCA strategy and reduce the price of the coins we are holding.

But we need to be careful as the price could go down at any moment, so for anyone that is thinking on investing right now they need to take this into consideration so in the case the price begins to go down again they do not get scared and sell their coins for an even lower price.
The price could fall, and if OP have invested back on the day he started the thread now he can book his Profit and go for a buyback with the DCA. During 24th May the price have marked a low of $29k, and now it is nearing $32k. The difference marks the profit and this is good during a bearish market. As the market is much dependent on the move of bitcoin, the altcoins too have begun to turn green. Ethereum have crossed $2000 which is to bump the price of majority of the altcoins.
1215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bear markets are a time for building, development and research on: May 30, 2022, 11:03:11 PM
New projects will bring big profit when the market turns bullish. By the time we don't know the real market of the new projects. Everything needs to be done based on perfect research. Very few were able to do it based on the learning whereas majority just choose new projects on the random manner.

For me new projects are good, but the risk is high that majority goes without getting listed. Very few high demand projects make big and we don't get chances to invest on such projects. Good choice is to invest on proven altcoins. For example choose few coins that have survived the bear market of 2017-2018 and reached good market progress. Now those coins will be in the low bottom and the progress will happen when market turns bullish.
1216  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin's price stabilize someday? on: May 30, 2022, 10:53:09 PM
The market moves were much associated with the demand to supply and not like the traditional market that have got different parameters. Being speculative the market at times gets manipulated. In the past Whales used to manipulate the market with negative news creating panic among the users.

People are always emotional when it comes to money. In recent days influencers were able to make movements in the market. Slowly this has been changing and people have understood the real market. Nowadays the market isn't that reactive to panic waves as well as influencers like Elon Musk.
1217  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what countries have the best / most privacy fiendly bitcoin laws? on: May 30, 2022, 10:22:48 PM
No country allows you to have privacy free buying of bitcoin. Because, with most of the P2P buying we make the transaction with a card or through any of the payment medium which is connected to the bank account. It is the users self ability to make privacy free purchase of bitcoin. In my view it is possible to buy bitcoin through our forum in exchange for other altcoins, exchange for gift cards and so on. This can be found on our currency exchange section and there are people who are making use of it with the help of an escrow.

BCCI had done something good after the IPL for the curators and groundsmen across 6 IPL venues. A sum of 1.25 crore as prize money have been announced for the unsung heroes of IPL. Without them it is impossible to have the grounds prepared before every match. This time Cadbury made a sponsor and this time BCCI announced the good prize money which gets the unsung heros small bonus.

Rajasthan Royals missed the winning moment. Winning the toss itself a big chance for them, already in the qualifier match Rajasthan Royals have played against Gujarat Titans batting first. In that match Rajasthan Royals wasn't able to restrict Gujarat Titans within 188 runs, so this time Rajasthan Royals should have decided to bowl first. Anyhow the big league for the year 2022 have come to an end. In the very first season of IPL, a new franchise Gujarat Titans have won the trophy and had made history.
1220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: May 29, 2022, 02:43:45 PM
^ Yeah, very interesting that L. Fernandez has gone in the 4th round already while a lot of ranked ladies are falling.

Nadal vs FAA, and Alcaraz vs Khachanov. Just put a parlay on this game, +7.5 on FAA and KK +8.5 for a good 3.17 odds. I'm thinking that this could be a 3 set victory for either Nadal or Alcaraz, but maybe it will be close that the final score can be somewhat covered by FAA and KK.
I think nadal will have no problem getting past aliassime but i expect the canadian to put a good resistance and maybe win a set against nadal but for khachanov i dont think he will be able to resist alcaraz on clay.
Auger Aliassime is giving hard fight against Nadal. There is consecutive scoring for the first three points of the set. Right now Aliassime leads the first set scoring the fourth point and the set turns 3-1, but the odds for Nadal is low stating he has the increased winning probability. Aliassime have won the last two matches in direct sets, and in this match the experience might gain importance.
