The altcoin I have is dexcoin the current market value is $150 it's locked in the account
That will not be considered valid collateral as most lenders will want 125% of the amount you are looking to get loaned in a currency they can exchange if you default on the loan. Best option is lock this thread as you have no shot at a loan.
1202  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there long-term profitable sports bettors? on: December 31, 2023, 09:16:55 AM
Casinos are crazy for stopping a gambler from betting when they have hit a hot streak. Everyone knows the house always wins in the long run. Really I don't think a casino should be allowed to tell a person they can no longer gamble unless they're caught cheating, but that's not the way it is.

Are there long term sports bettors in profit? Probably a few scattered throughout the world, but I personally do not know any.

  To do this, it is advisable for him to place bets not in one bookmaker’s office, but in several.
This is a good idea to avoid being limited so quickly. Not sure it matters online because i'm sure your stats are linked from each site somehow, but Live casino's I think this is a great idea.

Thanks for the reply Oilacris,

We're open to any ideas on marketing and beginning a signature campaign, if you have any recommendations on the various ways to do it I would love to talk about it.

Hello Bombard!

A signature campaign would be nice for awareness
I think a campaign is in the works, just working out some bugs and working out a budget from the discussions I have had with the team. It's best they make sure the product is working properly before spending money on marketing IMO.
1204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto gambling and religious restrictions on: December 31, 2023, 02:18:42 AM
Talking with someone that is Muslim yesterday, it was suggested to me that many Muslims around the world might be using crypto to circumvent the strict treatment of gambling in predominantly Muslim countries.

It was an interesting concept to consider that since crypto can be used to conceal your spending, it is probably also used by people who want to gamble to avoid the consequences based on religious practices.

But the more interesting side of this is that some probably interpret gambling with crypto as permissible under religious rules. Not exactly 100% approved let's say but not explicitly forbidden either.

So what do you think about this? Does gambling with crypto mean that laws about gambling being Haram don't apply all the time?
I was thinking that of crypto is earned outside of one's regular job, for example as a reward for activities such as bounties or sweepstakes, then maybe gambling with these earnings insta Haram?

These concepts are interesting to me because most Christian people like me, while having our religion dictate that gambling is a very serious sin, most do it anyway. Basically most christians aren't very pious at all and don't follow religion rules at least in my experience. So using loopholes to circumvent religious rules when your country even endorsed certain casinos isn't needed that much. So it's interesting to observe these differences.
If you are of a certain religion who doesn't believe in gambling and you are gambling in some way, are you really a believer in that religion? So many hypocrites when it comes to religion.

What's the penalty if you are caught gambling and are of a religion that doesn't believe in gambling?

We should completely forbid meriting any vote from the voting thread, not just from nominees to users who nominated them.

Perhaps next year this rule will be also added. Just a thought though.


I think meriting anything except the OP here would be a good rule. No reason to really merit anyone who voted for you, but people are free to spend merit anyway they want.

Is there a way to turn off merits for a thread?
1206  Economy / Gambling / Re: Trustdice: Terrible sportsbook, 5x! wager to withdraw on: December 30, 2023, 10:48:07 PM
I have taken no bonus, nor won anything. I just noticed after i deposited that the sportsbook is insanely slow and unresponsive, its just a huge hassle to deal with. Therefore i want to just withdraw my money and never use that site again.

Please show me 1 man that reads the full TOS of any website. You expect the casinos to have quite similar TOS, as you would do for rules in real casinos. But here they will hold your money longer than anyone else.

If you didn't read the sites tos than you cannot complain when it wasn't what you expected. The terms are there for your convenience so that you know what the site expects from you and what you can expect from a site. I agree that 99.9% of users do not read a site's tos, but that's not the site's fault.

1207  Economy / Gambling / Re: Trustdice: Terrible sportsbook, 5x! wager to withdraw on: December 30, 2023, 08:47:49 PM
Did you read the ToS before depositing or did you just make an account and deposit. I'm not an employee of trustdice, but this could look like a competitor site leaving a piss poor review.

You may just be a gambler, but had you read their terms you may have opted not to deposit there. Not sure why you wouldn't choose 1 of the more well known books to wager sports

1208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: why do people always play gambling even if they always lose? on: December 30, 2023, 05:03:29 AM
I always hear stories of friends who always lose playing online gambling. I don't know what his purpose to tell his story to me. even it's clear, his story makes him look stupid.

Besides that, in another place, Many young people around to me still play slot gambling even don't have a job and always lose. I wonder where they get the money for deposits? and why they repeat that?. I don't know what the reason reason that doesn't bother them, they should have given up, and changed the game that makes them profitable. if I always lose in the game, I will change the type of game, example If I always lose on a slot, I will change the type of game like sports betting until my capital is back and try the luck again to the slot.

They think that if they keep playing they will eventually hit a big win or a bonus, that's why most don't change slots when they're losing. It's all random chance as far as slots go and eventually you will get a decent win, the issue is how big will that win be and will it be more than what you lost? Most likely no, but as long as you're not losing your house to play and just having some fun with extra money, you should be fine.

It might depend on your computer, but I personally have spell check. I don't really think it matter a ton as long as we can understand what you are saying, but I agree that it can help when you see something out of character for a user. Doesn't mean for sure the account is hacked, but makes you want to keep an eye on the person for a bit.
1210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips to consider before selecting an under 3.5 football prediction on: December 30, 2023, 01:43:56 AM
This are just tips that can help your analysis it doesn't guarantee 100 percent safety
1.Defense: Defensive strength is a very important factor, ensure you focus on teams with solid defensive records to keep
The scoreline low..when two opponents don't concede easily the scoreline is always low

2:Team form: checking the formation of both teams is also very important.pick teams that have a low history of low
Scoring matches where they tend to score and concede fewer goals(just a little enlightenment, concede here means allowing opponents to score against them) and there are some leagues that should be avoided in this case.

3.Head to head stats: check the previous matchups between both teams..if they have a good history of playing less than 2.5 goals then it would be a good indication and selection for an 3.5 prediction
These are just some ideas I have I'm new to the forum and I'm open to learn
Thanks for reading guys

If you a daily bettor, its not worth with the risk to bet only on Under 3.5.
Most of Under 3.5 usually comes with a low payout, e.g: 1.4x 1.3x or even lower than that.
Yeah I understand the chance to win that bet is bigger but if we lose 1 bet with that odds = we must win 3 bets to make it even.

Lower odds isn't a guarantee, but I'd much rather bet a game under 3.5 paying x1.4 vs betting a game under 3.5 paying 3.45. Safe bets aren't bad bets, but also not guaranteed wins.
1211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can I dodge KYC using the his medium. on: December 29, 2023, 11:59:18 PM
All casinos are different, 1 casino may make passing kyc mandatory upon signing up while others make you pass kyc on a big wd, withdrawals totaling certain amount in a day, or a certain amount of money won. They are all different and there is no way to bypass anything, basically don'y sign up if you can't or do not want to pass kyc.
1212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's Your Feeling After You Finish Gambling. on: December 29, 2023, 07:17:36 AM
Gamblers are always chasing that high they felt the 1st time they gambled and won. I would say how I feel is dependent on how the gambling went. If I am a winner on the day I am satisfied and relaxed, if a loser I have a certain feeling of frustration I suppose.

The mood is different depending on the gambling as well. If I am playing a slot, I know that I have a smaller chance of winning and feel less disappointed on the loss. If betting sports I feel I make a more educated bet and have a better chance at winning, so if I lose I feel more disappointed.
1213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lack of proper knowledge on casino games increases chance of loss and reduce fun on: December 29, 2023, 05:50:24 AM
I played Roulette on a casino three days ago and it was obviously my first-time playing Roulette, I literally didn't understand my way out and I just knew I should select a number and click on spin. I did that obediently and time after time, I lost. I was really motivating myself with the next spin, and next and next, but all to no avail, I was lost in the ride until I drained my deposit for the day's gambling, that time It dawned on me that my Ignorance has contributed to my parallel losses for the day, I just logged out and ended that day's session disappointed.

Yesterday, I was discussing with my friend on my experience, and it was more obvious that my Ignorance played a major role in my bitter experience days before. It was after I was whipped badly that I went back and saw the demo option which I should've used to learn before I engaged. Also, I wish to advise all new gamblers to visit demo space in the casinos where you can learn before you start playing with real money cos I think it will help people master the games before engaging to have more fun, because not only did I lose money that day, but honestly, I didn't have any fun.

I would like to ask if some people here has experienced this too and what is the possibility that most people who experience repeated losses are Ignorant of the game play patterns.
Why would you keep betting if you have no clue what you are doing? Just hoping that luck happens? You should have watched a tutorial on youtube or read the game rules before placing any sort of bet if you didn't know what you were doing.
1214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How should Lotteries be categorized? on: December 29, 2023, 01:51:00 AM
Title speaks for itself. I know that Lotteries are a form of gambling since at the end of the day, you're banking on your luck to bag the win and earn huge amounts of money, but compared to our conventional knowledges of how gambling works, Lotteries are quite different, a few of them:

  • The Payout: Rarely would you ever see your money x1000000000 in a casino, but in lottery, that's the entire premise. You put in as low as a dollar on the line, and you have a chance to claim a stake at huge amounts of money.
  • The Luck: Most casino/gambles involve unfair yet doable odds. 40/60 house edges being one of the most common odd disparities in this market. In the world of lotteries however, you get as much as 0.00000001% chance at winning, sometimes even less.
  • The Replayability factor: Casinos set a premise where even if you win today, you'd always get the chance to win again tomorrow, lotteries do not have that liberty, with most people who won the lottery knowing fully-well that they wouldn't have the chance to win again in the future.
  • Access: Casinos are age restricted and are mostly region-based. A casino couldn't cater to anyone beyond their area, but lotteries like powerball are played on a national scale, sometimes even international.

With all these factors laid in front of you, would you still think that lotteries are supposed to be linked with standard gambling systems, or should we set them to a different system/standard from here on out? Answers please.
Gambling is gambling isn't it? Whether it be risking $1 to win $1000000 or risking $1 to win $10, you are gambling. If anything lotteries should be categorized as low odds gambling as the odds of winning are extremely low. For example the odds of winning the powerball jackpot are roughly 1 in a 290 million chance.
1215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Was You Biggest Win in 2023? on: December 28, 2023, 07:51:07 PM
My biggest win was probably being alive to see the end of 2023. I know you were referring to biggest gambling win, but I feel pretty lucky to have gone through my health issues and still be here to talk about it.

Sorry you got screwed over by the streamer, you should have left his ass where you found him. Looks like he is willing to stream for anyone who will pay him, including 1xbet. I checked out his kick profile and it's loaded with 1xbet clips.

I have a few streamer contacts if you need some more streamers for the platform. Feel free to send a pm and maybe I can get ya some help.

Right now this campaign is full, if the last couple members that were given spots don't change the sig and avatar within 24 hours I'll give their spots away. Sorry to everyone who applied, better luck next time.

**EDIT**

There was a rule change. Altcoin boards will not be eligible for pay.
1218  Economy / Services / Re: poorbot.io Sig and Avatar Campaign on: December 28, 2023, 06:10:59 AM
2 spots left, apply quick
1219  Economy / Services / Re: poorbot.io Sig and Avatar Campaign on: December 28, 2023, 02:20:50 AM
Still a few open spots, not looking for anyone who has to wait 2 days to join. Want posters that are available now. Spreadsheet has been posted, check to see if you made it in.
1220  Economy / Services / Re: poorbot.io Sig and Avatar Campaign on: December 27, 2023, 07:50:02 PM
If the campaign will last then I am in.

Reserve..

Even managers can't tell how long the campaign will last; they can only assure you based on the funds they have at hand, and the project will be the one to decide how much they are willing to spend on promotion.
 
From the manager's previous comment before this thread, there is already an escrow that can cover up to a week in his possession. You can either give it a try or... we never can tell how long a campaign will last until it kicks off.
The campaign could last up to 4 weeks, it's really going to depend on the number of users that use the bot. 1st week is secured for sure though.
