Just found this on the stake forum.  If anybody ever gets accused of multiaccounting on stake again get this. Drake's publicly known account since 2021 has the stake username "DeepPockets6". Yet on last Saturday's stream he played with the account "eatingyourfood" . What's a little bit strange, in the Saturday raffle (takes place every Saturday) this eatingyourfood account won several times in March-April 2022. The Drake - Stake announcement was official on March 22nd. On April 4th 2022 this account won the raffle 5 times even though Stake employees and/or people with affiliate benefits are not allowed to enter. People speculated for a long time who eatingyourfood is and since last weekend we know. I must say this once again feels a little bit off.  There might be a simple explanation for this.... Stake might give Drake affiliate benefits on the "DeepPockets6" account, but not on the "eatingyourfood" account. So Drake might be playing with his own money on the "eatingyourfood" account. The VIPs obviously get more privileges than the normal average Joe, so we cannot blame them for looking after their high rollers. Multi-accounting is only illegal, if you are abusing rewards and bonuses by using more than one account. (Drake obviously do not worry about things like that, he prints money on a daily basis) You are right, that could be an explanation. There is still one thing a little strange. According to Eddie on a stream over a year ago, Drake said it's ok to not participate in the raffle giveaway, so they no longer counted it when DeepPockets6 was drawn. But since nobody knew the eatingyourfood was also his he won with the tickets this account made. That's till a little bit off my my eyes. But what can we do, we are just small fish compared to a guy like him. I believe though there should be the same rules for everybody. People have the option to change their minds... and Drake has that option too. He might have discussed that with some of his friends and he might be one of his friends referrals, so he only wants his friend to benefit from his non-affiliate account, where he use his own money. Who knows how these people operate... but I think he gets advice from his VIP managers or even directly from Eddie, so he will do something that will further benefit him and his friends. (I doubt that the casino would support him getting referral rewards from money that they provide to him for marketing purposes) |

Well, you have to be some kind of Bank shill, if you want to support the SEC on this issue, because no Crypto currency supporter in their right mind will support the SEC. There are a lot of butthurt losers and shills for the traditional Banking sector that will support the SEC, but they have their own hidden agenda for that. The majority of the people on this forum will support Changpeng Zhao, because he provides a service to millions of people who wants to trade Crypto currencies. That said.... a lot of Bitcoiners hate centralized crypto services.. so you might find that some people might appose centralized exchanges, because they advocate for self-custodial options. |

Binance (CZ) are the victim of their own success. If you were the governments and if you wanted to hurt Bitcoin and Crypto currencies, who would you target? The answer come in advice that my father gave me, many years ago.... "If you go into a 3 man fight.... take down the biggest guy first.. that makes a huge statement" The government can only fight the enemy that it can see.... and Binance is the largest target for them to take down. They want to send a strong message out to the smaller operators that they can take down the largest exchange.. so the rest will not have a chance. I hope Binance gets all the support possible from the community, because if they fail.... the domino affect will be put in motion, for the rest to fall too.  |

A lot of countries are moving to more strict regulations on Crypto currencies, because the financial industry like Banks are putting pressure on them to do it. Just look at the SEC in the US and how they are targeting Binance with several charges, trying to close them down. Governments use tax money to bail out Banks and now they are using tax payers money to fight the Banks competition. This is in their best interest, because Banks provide control over people's wealth and information for tax purposes. |

Well, in most cases trading increase your profit and gambling reduce your profit, so it might not be a good strategy change to gamble it. There are other P2P methods to buy and sell crypto currencies, which will be a better alternative to gambling. Also, governments might lock down on exchanges.... but there will always be Bitcoin friendly countries, where you will be able to spend those coins on holidays or to buy virtual goods or services. (Example : Pay for a VPN with Crypto currencies) Bitcoin cannot be stopped, because not all governments work together.  |

You triggered a money laundering flag with them and that is why they are asking for KYC verification. It does not matter how long you have been gambling with them, because the moment when the potential "money laundering" flag are triggered, they will follow the KYC verification route. A typical money launderer will make a deposit and just gamble for a small percentage of that money and then withdraw it. The casino software matrix are looking for that behavior and once it is triggered, the software flags your account. You will then be asked for KYC verification to protect the casino.  |

I can tell you one thing, it does not grow confidence amongst potential investors, when the government goes after one of the biggest centralized Crypto exchanges, but we know these centralized services are easy targets for governments to attack. This event is just a new warning to people who rely on these centralized services and a good wake up call for them to take control of their own Private keys. (Not your keys, not your coins) |

The US government will not take drastic steps like that before the elections, because they know it will alienate a lot of potential voters. You might see more strict regulations after the elections, depending on what political party will win the elections. At this stage it is all rumors and talk, with politicians trying to think of strategies that will bring in more votes. The Banks are funding a lot of these election campaigns, so the politicians are trying to say the right things to keep them happy. |

I personally wouldn't because it's very dangerous step to take if its violation of their rules. My assets can be completely frozen, my earnings can be cancelled and/or reversed. I could experience to be in their black list even.. Why would someone risk it I don't understand. You may dislike rules - I don't blame you most rules are terrible and enforced - but you still need to obey rules. You don't need to like them you should only care about your money deposited to that site and won through that gambling website.
Well, people do it for different reasons. Some popular 3rd party slot providers might block certain people from restricted countries to play their games and the gamblers wants to play those games. (So they use the VPNs to hide their country of origin, so that they can play those games) The smaller casinos might advertise that they are "VPN Friendly" in the beginning, but as soon as they grow large enough, they suddenly come under the radar of the regulators and they remove that feature from their site. |

Sending a message to 'Carollzinha' on telegram is enough to reach 'Stunna'. However, I just sent an email to 'Eddie' about this issue. Hopefully they will update the images of Stake and Primedice ANN thread soon.
Anyone watched the live stream of Drake yesterday? More than 100k people were watching the live stream of Drake. I have also watched it for a short time. Stake team made 12 bonus drop of $5 during the stream. I was lucky to claim all those codes. But I'm having another bad month on Stake. I have lost around $900 within last 2 weeks.  Well, then you were extremely fast... because those Twitter drops was gone in 60 seconds. You can know for sure that the RTP will be shit for the rest of the week, because Stake will have to get that money back. I tried to wager some DICE last night and I got hammered with a $15 to $16 cost for every $1000 wagered. I usually manage to keep it between $11 and $12 for every $1000 wagered.... so it is definitely not the normal RTP. (Just my own observation) |

There are countless examples of people without an MBA, that started a very successful business. I think the best example might have been people like Bill Gates and Elon Musk. (They hired a lot of MBAs when the business became successful later on) It takes people with a lot of drive and ambition to learn things on their own to start a successful business, without an MBA, but it is not a requirement to do it. (It just reduces the frustration and the life lessons, when you do it without an MBA) |

We are talking about the guy that was called, Bitcoin Jesus and then he turned into Bitcoin Judas. (traitor) He dumped the real Bitcoin (BTC) for Bitcoin Cash like it was nothing, showing his real commitment to making profit and not committing to the cause to support Bitcoin (BTC) addoption. Now, Bitcoin Cash is not making him the profits that he expected, so he is jumping onto the next thing that he thinks, will make him big profits. |

The United States of America had 1,395,350 active Military personnel working for the government, so they created jobs for millions by making war. In 2021, around 18.28 million people were working for state and local governments in the United States.... they had 331.9 million people living in the US in 2021. Imagine what their unemployment statistics would have looked like, if they did not provide government jobs. The unemployment rate has ranged from 3.4 percent to 3.7 percent since March 2022. |

A lot of people use gambling as an escape from something else.... and if the gambling goes wrong, then they see no future. If you have debt, do not try to get out of the debt, by using gambling.... it is not profitable for most people. Also, if you have depression ... rather go and seek help... do not dive deeper into a dark pit of despair by trying gambling to cheer you up. Losing a lot of money is not going to get you out of that situation. |

 Lol I just realized that I was one of the winners of the giveaway yesterday just posting my username on the Stake forum and I got it I should only receive $30 but because my account was verified the prize was doubled  thanks Stake. Yea, I also try every week.... but it is very difficult to know who is going to pick and what they like. I tried something with cats and dogs, but with my luck... the mod who has to pick ..is a dog lover, when I post something with a cat. My friends have been picked several times before, so this is proof that it is not just friends and family of mods that are picked. I know some of the mods said that they pick their VIPs and others are just random. |

I actually taught a lot of young girls at a birthday party on how to buy bitcoins and where to spend it. There was some Kitty game that they wanted to play, but they did not know how to buy bitcoins... so I taught them. They were still young, but a use case was created and they wanted to participate in that. The boys used their bitcoins to play some war game, where you try to torpedo the other persons boats... was actually a nice game. |

I doubt if I will ever trust any Mixer service ever again, after what happened with big mixing platforms like Bitmixer and Chipmixer They make these huge promises and then it turns out that they have Terabytes of storage on all transactions that has gone through their platform. The smaller sites are possibly used by law enforcement authorities as a "Honeypot" to track all transactions that criminals might think that they are anonymous. (Example : Exit nodes on Tor) |

I think one of the best methods to reduce your debt, is to stop making new debt. I see a lot of companies that are offering loans to consolidate your debt and then paying a lower interest rate, but the people do this and then continue making more debt with the money that were made available through this method. You should be willing to go ALL IN to a debt reducing strategy when you start with something like this. Make huge sacrifices for a couple of months and then reap the reward. (No more wasting money on expensive takeouts and eating at restaurants and smoking and drinking) |

I think these types of applications should not run on the Bitcoin Blockchain, but rather on some side-chain. The developers can rather spend their time to develop something that can run on a side-chain, with minimal impact on the Bitcoin Blockchain. At this moment things like this are putting too much unnecessary strain on the Blockchain and killing the utility capabilities of many other more useful applications of Bitcoin. |
