1281  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the golden rule of investment? on: June 05, 2022, 07:17:44 PM
I have a friend who invests in cryptocurrency like me, he is an investor hold Luna and he has also lost quite a bit because of Luna. But what's more sad is his 2 best friends. Those two are also hold a lot of Luna's and Luna's crash causes them to lose all their possessions and become insane. As he said, one person has gone through the crisis and one has not. Those two guys who invested in Luna were all from my friend's advice. He said it was he who indirectly harmed them, money can be earned, but his friend are gone.

This is a sad story that I have heard. Through this story I want everyone to know 1 golden rule in investing is: never give financial advice to anyone. By the time you give them financial advice, you may feel like you're one step ahead of them, but if that advice is wrong, you could be the one hurting them.
The golden rule of investment is supposed to be "invest only what you can afford to lose" but idk maybe the golden rule of investment is not only one? And the rule that you said could be one of it. I gave out some financial advice to my friend and there is nothing wrong with it because in the first place, they are the ones that ask it not me.

From there they can agree that if ever they lose, they won't blame me for what happened to their money. Even if we know that we are one step ahead of them, we should not be confident with our ability but we must still be humble because at the end of the day, we can't predict anything that will happen in cryptos. luna coin for instance.

Hi which platforms offer free cryptocurrencies for just completing short questionnaires like the earn and learn program offered by coinbase?

Binance I think it also offers it, but with binance you earn for sure the cryptocurrencies or you just enter a draw for answering the questions correctly?

And in the other platforms? can you win cryptocurrencies? or just answering correctly gives you the option to enter a draw?


Hi, I actually keep track of those opportunities. You can find a full list of learn & earn opportunities here.

Apart from Coinbase, you can currently earn free crypto from these quizzes at Cake DeFi (2 quizzes for $5 each, mostly DFI), Bitpanda (€5 in BEST), Coinlist.co ($6 in XTZ), and Revolut (€4.50 in DOT - might be over, not sure). The linked site has the full instructions and all of the answers to the quizzes.

The Binance quiz rewards are always gone instantly. Coinmarketcap also has some, but it's a lottery to get a reward, and the chances of getting the reward are really low.
Nice site. Not only you provide links but you also help users to answer the quiz effortlessly. If you combine all of those sites I think you can earn decent crypto for free but the only problem that you might face is how can you withdraw those cryptos outside that sites when the crypto that they gave are too small? Better if they can send the cryptos directly to the personal wallet of the participants.

I have tried coinmarketcap quizzes once and as I have read, they are not lottery based but it was first come first serve and also depend on your scores. It was their airdrops are the one that is lottery based or works randomly. I rarely get a free crypto there.
1283  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitLucy.com 🎰 100% Deposit Match ⚽🏏🥊🏀 UP TO €5000! 🔥 on: June 05, 2022, 03:26:02 PM
Bitlucy.org is not official from bitlucy.com. We checked it yesterday with whoever bought it. Still awaiting for his response.
It doesn't make any sense why anyone would purchase this domain and advertise BitLucy and signature campaign in bitcointtalk forum.
I just checked out new bitlucy.com website and it is looking very good but I can't find any sports betting page.
Is this available or not?
That was strange but isn't it great for them? Someone is helping them with their promotions. They need to contact the person behind this to know their real intention and also to thank them for the kindness that they are showing. I check the new site as well but like you I can't find any sports based games there but there was a message on the left which says "welcome to bitlucy casino and sportsbetting".

Hhmm, maybe the updates are still in progress? But they choose to not pause their operations so that the casino lovers can continue playing. Don't worry bro, pretty sure it will be available soon. Bitlucy won't disappoint us this time.
1284  Economy / Economics / Re: COVID had widened the gap between world's richest and poorest on: June 04, 2022, 09:55:02 PM
The pandemic was an open avenue for the medical, pharmaceutical and information sector to build up new billionaires because the world depended on this three sectors for health tips although the period. To meet up with this demand the government had no choice but to print more money which resulted to high inflation rate which could possibly  result the predicted poverty rate but what is the way forward then?
I think that the word pharmaceutical is already under the term medical but I don't exactly know what is an information sector. Is this something where people seeks info? This must be the internet or the search engines like google but anyway, the medical industry is already in demand even before the covid came because there are people that suffers from sickness but yes it got boosted by covid.

Other sectors are also booming during these times like the agricultural. This is where vegetables and fruits came from and the two are needed for the people to make their immune systems strong and to dodge the viruses. I found out that it is safe to print money as long as there is a good demand of the products.
1285  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: NFT Play To Earn can make 50x - 100x? on: June 04, 2022, 09:01:34 PM
If you believe in the future in some coins, you can indeed hold it for a long time but I wouldn't really hold very long NFT's; I have the feeling that the hype is slowly fading away . I never understood the real use of NFT's so never invested in it but the only advice I could give to NFT holders is: take profit when you can!
Many people believe on luna and they think that its future is bright but what happened? Luna crashed hard leaving the people devastated with major losses. Having a belief isn't just enough but we also need a luck here. We won't know what if the coin that we trusted the most will also end up like what happened with luna.

Doing a constant research and seeking information from the news is also helpful so that you will know if what is coming and you can sell your coins before everyone else do it. That should still give you some good gains. In the case of nft's, some of them are useful but we can follow the same advice that I said earlier.
1286  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Effectively Maximize Profits from Online Crypto Casinos on: June 04, 2022, 08:08:58 PM
  • Play free spots
  • Make the most out of casino commission benefits
  • Monitor your funds
  • Play the games that you’re skilled at
  • Be aware of your betting patterns.

Do you have any surefire strategies that works for you which is not in the list above?
The only one that I know on how to effectively maximize the profits gained from gambling is by betting more and play on higher multipliers but that is if you are lucky, if not then be prepared to lose much bigger than usual.

The last on the list is "be aware of patterns" but no matter how we follow this, the results are not going to be the same anymore but only a coincidence can happen, making us believe that it really works in pattern and it is actually the beginners are the ones that can easily make money because they have this so called beginners luck. There is no strategy needed for most gambling games but luck is enough on them.
1287  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: friendly and profitable board for beginners, have you realized it? on: June 04, 2022, 04:09:37 PM
It's quite common to find users who are very adept at particular sports or who know a lot about particular matches or players, so it can be really helpful to find threads that provide insight on matches that you bet on and that, in turn, might allow you to pick up an edge on the games you want to play. But gambling has its downsides as well, and it's not always rainbows and unicorns. This isn't true just for people who get into gambling. It's true for everyone. Not everything will go as predicted. And not everything will go your way all the time. It's just the nature of betting.

If you're new to sports betting, or to the world of gambling in general, I recommend that you don't just jump into a world that you aren't familiar with just because it's the one that's getting the hot streak at the moment. First and foremost, stick with what you know and what you're comfortable with, and pick one that's within your personal interest range.
To have a really good skill in sport betting is something that is not easy to achieve but it needs a lot of research and trial and error so I don't think it was common to find them.

There are users that are actively replying on the gambling threads and we often mistaken them to be good at it but that was not enough to to tell. What's more better is by checking the user's posting history and see if most of the suggestions and predictions that he made are correct. Indeed that gambling do also has a downside and op as a beginner should know that.

Congrats by the way for his win, beginners' luck is truly real but there is no such thing as beginners board here in gambling although there is a beginner section in this forum. He can still ask questions there.
1288  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you using trading indicators? on: June 04, 2022, 04:55:43 AM
It is the fact that the majority of the traders are using these trading tools for they/we know that it was effective and was noticed to increase our chance to make a profit. But then, it doesn't mean that we can just be so easy about it, we also have to choose the one that we think will work on our end as many trading tools exist, but not all of them are effective.

I use only 2-3 trading tools, I can certainly find the difference in the time that I'm not using any of them...that seems too far.
It is certainly a fact that trading without indicators is a complete waste of time in the market. It’s kind of like driving a car without side mirrors, you can imagine that right? How do you navigate through such a car, it’s probably the most stressful and nearly impossible thing you can do.

The market is almost always 90% of the time very unpredictable, and it gets very difficult to make any relevant trading decision that would yield money. Hence, trading indicators are very relevant if a trade must stand any chance of being successful.
1289  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Will Russia Emerge As The Next Dominant Superpower on: June 03, 2022, 09:59:35 PM
No matter how much the Western media want to twist the fact, the reality is that a majority of the people in Eastern Ukraine are not happy with the Zelensky regime. The only way a polarized nation such as Ukraine can exist is by electing someone who is acceptable to both the sides. And this is not something they have done ever since Yanukovych was ousted from power. With each passing year, the Western Ukrainian politicians were imposing more and more of their views and policies on the Easterners.
Like him or not, he wasn't the person who attacked another nation, that is the situation. Just because half of the nation doesn't like Zelensky doesn't mean that Putin is welcomed to attack and kill and destroy half of the nation and get those lands, there is no logic there at all. We have a president that half of us hate as well, does that mean our neighbor nations should attack us and "save us from him" type of situation? Of course not, that would be the most stupidest thing ever.

I am sure that killing innocent people NEVER has a good reason and that means whatever we see on this war, all done by Putin and because of him and he is the real criminal that should be dethroned.
1290  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 03, 2022, 08:43:37 PM
I think, the best decision if the bitcoin price dropped down to $8,000 or $10,000 is to sell some items to raise money to buy huge amount of bitcoin for future profit making. We are still in bearish market, it will be favourable to hold for the price to hit back to $50,000 before you can sell to make a good income. It will be difficult for the price to decrease to $8,000 at this moment, because we are about to enter bullish market where people will be rushing to sell their bitcoin to make a passive income.
Indeed that would be the best idea but I am telling you when and if that actually happens, BTC dropping to $8000, people will panic and everyone will be feared to buy because that's very normal and while $8000 looks juicy right now, it will look threatening when it actually happens. When BTC was $60000 people were saying they will buy when the price drops below $50k and then $40k but how many of us are buying now? Hardly a few of us.

In my opinion, the price will not fall to this level. Overall, though, such a drop would be pretty interesting, and I would definitely buy at that price.
Good to see new traders/members having such confidence but honestly don't see the price dropping to $8000 unless there is a massive hack or exit scam from a big exchange like Binance or Coinbase, which isn't a real possibility but you never know what can happen in crypto.
1291  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: avoid scam telegram groups , find useful tools and channels on: June 03, 2022, 07:41:35 PM
I don't give those scammer a danm attention because have falling into the victims before which I lost a wallet worth of $600 i can't believe my eyes i felt weak and sick for some weeks mostly 90% member who dm first are scam don't believe them guys take heed.
Sorry for your loss but it's quite strange how someone can lose $600 to a random person messaging you. Do you trust strangers in real life with your bank account? I don't think anyone does that, so why do we make that mistake in the online world baffles me. Telegram is almost made for scammers since they can delete the chat, change username and even block the victim after scamming. It's best to just block any DMs without prior discussion.

There are still some groups where real traders discuss things and share their opinions but those groups are very limited. I remember creating a group with friends which subtly got hijacked by shillers and had to close the group after a few months. There are some fake channels on telegram that claim to post signals and all of those are fake. They edit the post based on how the market moved to make their signals look legit lmao
1292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Shiba getting rugged like Luna? on: June 03, 2022, 06:51:00 PM
I do not know what to make out of the news today about Shiba Inu's founder Ryosh distancing himself from Shiba and deleting all media posts across his handles. Usually this is a red flag and whenever it happens it gives the impression of a rugpull. Is that what we are likely going to have here, a similar situation of investors losing money like they lost in Luna. What is your observation on this? Please share with us.
If he wants to do a rug pull, he doesn't really need to these things first. So many coins have been rugged before and if you visit their twitter accounts the tweets and media files are still there and some are still actively posting, giving reasons.

It's funny that they still don't want to admit that they have turned scam already but what ever alibi's they are going to make, they are already caught out. In the case of shib, what if there was a problem with the twitter account? or it has been banned because when an account is banned or temporarily restricted, his tweets and files are also going to disappear but shib investors shouldn't panic just yet.
1293  Economy / Gambling / Re: Crypto Bet: A wider Array of Altcoins are being usef on: June 03, 2022, 06:00:34 PM
We ba know that gambling on with cryptocurrency is more safer and privacy covered than using the normal fiat method where you will have to disclose your credit card details to a casino having the power to remove your fund even without your permission. Cryptocurrency gambling just like using altcoins is a smart  way to gamble even with a volatile market. There are stable coins one can use to prevent volatility of the market from giving a strange price that could reduce the value of our holdings.
Safer in terms of privacy related matters because cryptos are anonymous but when it comes to other stuffs, no. Crypto is not safer because it is more volatile and you can already start losing your money even if you don't start gambling yet and also transactions here are non reversible so make sure you have enough knowledge before dealing with cryptos because you can lose your crypto in the process, also once we get hacked or scam, it will be hard to trace the criminals. This is something that cant be experience when using a fiat. I am no way of defending fiat but I am still a crypto supporter that is why I am here but I am only telling the difference between them.
1294  Economy / Gambling / Re: Comparison between bitsler and stake on: June 03, 2022, 01:29:46 PM
Nice comparison lol. By there we can see the clear winner is none other than stake. That is legit because until now stake still offer such things and what is good is that they added more perks and as we can see stake is still here on this forum, actively promoting their site while bitsler had retired long time ago in terms of promotions.

I think that was clear that bitsler is running out of funds and this can also be the reason why they cut some of their benefits but what they did there is too unprofessional if ever they cut it straight away without any advanced warnings. This is too unfair to those who are still wagering hard only to achieve a better rank and receive exciting bonuses.
1295  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causing victim to scam his family on: June 03, 2022, 11:00:09 AM
people today will not want to change without a big disaster that befell them and their surroundings (family or friends). There have been many cases where gamblers sold family assets just to gamble and lost. This is really worrying because when this disaster happens, people will definitely stay away from that person
It's because they've got their mindset looking only into gambling and they don't think of the setback that choice they choose.

The emotion crumbles as they force what they want to happen even it will be a big risk that will not just include them but also their family.

It's actually worrying when a gambler goes up to that point and he hears none that gives feedback to his actions as he only listens to himself and with no one.
Maybe the gambler plays secretly or playing alone on their own room? That is why they hear nothing other than their own selves but if their family member sees them, they should be concerned at the gambler and one of the ways to know that the gambler is already addicted in gambling is when they stole money from them.

They should not wait any longer before worst things can happen to the gambler and to them because that gambler can steal other people's money or will kill his own family because they won't give them money. They need to talk to that person as soon as possible and if the person won't listen, then they can ask help from the authorities.
1296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Winners: Eintracht Frankfurt! on: June 02, 2022, 09:25:32 PM
Barcelona should not think about their failure too much right now because they started the season really badly and they ended up finishing in the top two, which is an achievement in itself in my opinion.

Barcelona is going to concentrate on doing well in La Liga next season. They will also be trying to do well in the Champions League but I don't know if they will be able to achieve any great thing in the Champions League with the current squad. I think they should concentrate on La Liga right now and over time they will make their squad stronger through some transfers and they will be able to concentrate on the Champions League then.
They do not have to be great right now this season, they had a horrible start of the season that is true, but not like they fixed all of their problems. It is true that Xavi has been much better than Koeman but I am sure that koeman is furius and yelling at TV screen "if you gave me those players like auby+traore+torres then I would had better results too!!!" and that is why the real difference will always be roster change.

Barcelona needs to get better players and all that, but they do not have financial means to do so, which means that maybe it will take longer than just one year for them to turn things around and start being champions everywhere.
1297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Old Casino Keep Up Without Support Here In Bitcointalk Or Signature Campaign on: June 02, 2022, 06:51:03 PM
what keeps users interested in staying on a gambling site is a contest and if the old gambling site regularly conducts marketing (contests, giveaways and campaigns) then I'm sure the site will continue to survive. there are quite a number of gambling sites that are older than bitvest and 777coin like freebitco.in but until now they still survive because their marketing is good.
It could be, but if the gambling site is not managed correctly, it is not necessarily the case that users will be interested in being on the old gambling site because there are concerns. What must be ascertained is what if several winners manage to win the contest, whether they can get the prize or still have to wait. That is why gambling sites have to make sure they still have enough money to hold contests or so on so that there is no doubt from the users.
This happens to me before where I waited almost two months before I finally get my prize on the contest that I won. This is too unprofessional. Why they conduct such contest without having the funds ready? For us winners we are also excited to get our winnings because we will use the money immediately.

Many participants starts to complain if they still keep on doing the same thing and that can greatly affect their reputation even if they say that they are not new anymore in the industry. It's not about the sig campaign and it's not about if how old or new the casino are but it was about managing things correctly (like you said). 777coin and bitvest are old sites and have been promoted regularly on the forum but there are still several complaints on them, mostly about delayed withdrawals.

Can you suggest a crypto sportsbook with video streaming of sporting events?
Why would you need to watch the live stream on the sportsbook page when you can watch it elsewhere. I don't think sportsbook could offer this service as there are many matches being played simultaneously and it's impossible for the sportsbook to publish those events live.

If you want to watch the matches while betting on them, you need to watch them on TV or any other platform which is live streaming them.
I know stake sports offers some kind of streaming but I am not sure if they can cover all the games. Streaming is one of the features offered by most sportsbetting site. This is the only way the bettor can enjoy and get thrilled of the game.

The guy could be a crypto bettor, that is why he only wants to watch on the same platform where he bets as that can save him time and also the streams on national television can be delayed by some hours unless if he pays some kind of subscription specifically for sports, as I see there is some kind of subscription like that, the same with nba, and ufc. I heard bet365 also offers live streams with better quality.
1299  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Few Steps To Avoid Losses In Trading. on: May 31, 2022, 12:33:03 PM
First of all, you need to pay attention to training, you need to understand this. When I started working with a broker from Amarkets, I also initially worked on a demo account and only then replenished the main account.
Since you seem to have worked your way through the demo accounts and stuff, I have a few questions for you if you could please answer because I have always been confused about whether trading via demo accounts are worth or not.

1- When trading on the demo account, didn't you feel like these funds are not real and hence never had the same pressure as you would have with real money involved?

2- After you stopped trading on the demo account and moved to real trading, were some speciic challenges like adapting from "play money" to "real money"?

Thanks in advance!
1300  Economy / Economics / Re: Solar panels set to be mandatory on all new buildings under EU plan on: May 30, 2022, 08:28:51 PM
This law is simply about generating power to the building and houses. This policy is to take care of the challenges of energy and it is not really new to hear it because it is already seen around. I believe it is the awake of this Russian and Ukraine war that has waken EU to such solution. Apart from new buildings, some old buildings are being renovated to carry solar panels and I think it is good for the people to use solar energy to power their houses, it could be cheaper also and convenient.
It only sounds simple but there are downsides of using solar as energy as the panels can be expensive and the energy that the sun can provide might not be as strong as the traditional energy that most people are using now. This solar energy is not new but if there are new here maybe this was the first time to be implemented on this place or idk maybe they already tried using solar before but they are now making it mandatory.

Not sure if this has a relation to Ukraine and Russia war but one thing is for sure and that is they are doing this to help the environment as we all know that our environment has now been greatly damaged.
