Money laundering is what I think about most. But there are many other things that are criminal that it can be linked to. It can be the coins used in buying illegal goods or drug that they will send you. What I just know is that it will finally lead to ban of your account or you may be arrested.

Or it can be a scam attempt.

I hope this will teach people lesson. If I am the one either, I can not go for something stupid like this.

Where is the link to the news?

This is the opposite of short position.

I do not believe in what those analysts are saying because as one analyst is saying uptrend, the other analyst will say downtrend. Haven't you noticed that?

Haven't you seen analyst wrong before? They are only analysts, they may be right or wrong.

You ask similar question just nit long ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5467688.msg62884510#msg62884510

Read what I posted there.

If it is derivative market, the fee on Bybit for makers is 0.02%, but for takers it is 0.06% which can be too much for you.

On OKX: Marker fee is 0.02%. Taker fee is 0.05%

On Binance which I have advised you to use, it has lower fee, especially the taker fee of 0.04% or lower.

If you want to gain more, set taje profit so that (using limit order if available) so that only maker fee would be deducted from you after you make the profit amount you want to make.

I am using Bybit and their fee is not high. But if you need an exchange with low trading fee, use Binance. Especially if you use BNB for trading fee and using BUSD trading pair in the derivative market.

Note that BUSD will be delisted on Binance by early next year.


On Bybit if you are using the spot trading, BTC/USDC trading fee is $0:



Other USDC pair on Bybit are of $0 fee. Or maybe the ones that I know, but I do see $0 with USDC trading pairs on Bybit

This is one of the problems people can have when using centralized exchanges. Not you key nit your coin.

What did you think the reason can be for freezing your coin? If what you are doing is legal, keep sending them message. The message you post above that they send you back is just like a bot message which would be the same after someone send the exchange email, then that bot-like message will be sent their customers almost immediately. If they send you second message, that would be the real message about your complaint.

I am not a forex trader. But if I recall correctly, I have a friend that uses both OctaFX or so with Metatrader. I think one for payment and the other for trading. Crypto exchanges does not work like that, you do all on crypto exchange using a single app or site provided by the exchange that you are using.

Can you connect Bybit with Metatrader? No.

These are the two commonest:

https://www.coingecko.com
https://coinmarketcap.com

On Coingecko, click on bitcoin and click on exchanges to see the exchanges it is listed.
On Coinmarketcap, click on bitcoin and click on markets to see the exchanges it is listed.

Although you should know that bitcoin will be listed on all centralized exchanges.

I may agree with you but I do not totally agree with this:

Some may not be transparent.

We have site that states boldly when you login into their site that no KYC, but in the ToS, KYC is mandatory. It that transparency?

Most gambling sites that enforce KYC will let users to deposit without KYC but they must pass KYC befor they can withdraw. Is that transparency?

But people should read gambling site ToS, it is important.

I prefer 33% chance of winning or higher. I am not expecting to win anything huge with little amount of money, but gamblers are different from one another.

In gambling, I have preferred the chance of winning to be very high. In one of the links you gave, the chance of winning is 0.03% while in the quote, the chance that user would win is 0.0007% which is insane but possible . That was great that you and that guy won, but your would have tried plenty times before you can win that huge amount.

Can you tell us about how much you have lost before you win that huge amount with the little amount of money?

That is it, but gamblers should use the amount of money that they can afford to lose. Example is if I am earning $500 every week, I can use 5% to gamble. If I start gambling with $25 all day long and the balance remain $6.25. I may decide to put the remaining 30% which is $6.25 on gambling at once if I gamble just once in a week during weekend. As long as I do not go against my weekly gambling budget, I do not even care if I lose all the weekly gambling budget.

If we should use past halving to analyze and conclud, after some months after bitcoin halving, the price if bitcoin will increase. After a more than a year, bitcoin will increase more and reach all-time-high. I do not think we need to read any article about it, it is what we all know on this forum. After 2024 halving, be expecting bitcoin price to increase.

What that is most important is to read the casino TOS. From the TOS you will see if a gambling site customers can have more than one account or not. But what I have noticed is that all the casinos that I have read their TOS only allow one account.

Some people can be dubious and want to get more deposit bonus and register many accounts. If such person is known, the account can be banned. And in some cases that the user may not know about it and if he do not do anything dubious, the gambling site will merge both accounts into a single account.

If you are of this type, why do you not try and be going for martingale instead, rather than the money should remain 30% before you want to bet all the remaining amount at once.

But you should know that the strategy is very risky. You can start with $0.5 and increase it in a way if you win the next round, you will recover your initial losses and make some profit.

But if you are the type that prefer to spend long hours in betting, the strategy may not be for you.

And you think you are going to win? The chance of losing is far more than 90% and the chance of winning is far less less than 10%.

Just know that welcome deposit bonus can be different on other exchanges, it may have different rules and it may not be up to 200%.

That is just it. For me there are some that I have won 3x or more before and able to withdraw the money that I won. But I noticed that the ones that I went for 25x or other very high odds in the past are the ones I easily mostly and all the time easily lose. They are bonuses, some people will use it to accumulate many games, expecting to win higher amount, but later lead to loss.

We have discussed about this few days ago and this was my reply if I should not repeat myself:


Like I always said, we do not need Elon Musk. Bitcoin need people, not a single person. After bitcoin decreased in price at the time when Tesla no more accept bitcoin for payment, the price of bitcoin later increased to all-time-high.

What drives most people, both men and women into gambling is because they want to earn money. Earning money is the primary reason and other reasons can be considered as secondary.

It is when they later know that gambling can not give them the expected earning,  they may decide to stay or quit gambling. The secondary reason is the reason they decided to stay if not addicted.

If you have $500, you can gamble with $25. That is 5% of the money that you have or that you are earning. This has been what is helping me not to get addicted. Some people may have slightly lower percentage or higher percentage, but they must follow the rules and strategies they have on money management. If gambling more than that, it is becoming addiction. If you have a relationship, like girlfriend or wife, gambling can affect if you are not able to meet your financial needs but spending most on gambling.

Most EU countries allow gambling in one way or the other.

My advice for you is to go through the TOS of some gambling sites, look for the European Union countries that are restricted and research more on them. Most of gambling sites will have almost the same countries that they restrict. Use the gambling sites that have official threads on this forum to do that.

I will say this is true. But without bitcoin ETF, altcoins have been following bitcoin price. If bitcoin increase in price, altcons follow and they also increase in price. If bitcoin decrease in price, altcoins follow and they also decrease in price. But bitcoin is better because it is less volatile than altcoins, it has more marketcap and more utility.

Bitcoin spot ETF would be one of the reasons that more people will have access to bitcoin, that is definitely true.

One thing I just do not like about altcoins is that the can be disappointing, when you expect their price to rise, they may disappoint. Also when they are falling in the bear market, their fall can lead to almost total lose of money.

It is possible that not only people that still have money left on the custodial wallet are sent the message, all the affected people that do not also have anything left on their Coinbase.com account also can be sent the message.

The money will belong to them. But what about the exchanges that their customers will make a slight mistake that will lead to loss of the customers coin and nothing would be done after the exchange has the coin becusse they have the private key? This one you are talking about is still better and I think it is something that the affected people should just overlook
