I believe that you should be wagering to get some money from the rain, but 4 thousand dollars is way too much. Primedice was one of the biggest casinos that got attacked by the bots and that is why they are trying their best to avoid that once again. I believe that there shouldn't be something like that and stake should be avoiding it by putting up some dollar amount so that bots wouldn't attack it.

However, I believe that 4k is way too much, it is not the money you need to spend, it is the money that you need to actually end up putting up as wager amount, which you could do with 50 bucks if you know what you are doing but it really doesn't worth it at all.
The reality is that if you wager with just 10-20 bucks and can still reach to 4k levels then it means that there is a limit to it and you may end up failing that as well but that doesn't mean that you should be doing it this clearly if your only aim is to get the rain.

There are tons of people who end up working to make some money from a casino and they are really doing it to make a difference that means that we are going to see them have a lot of chances to earn a rain. However, if you are only there to get the rain then you may not be want to get that 4k because it wouldn't make sense to gamble that much JUST for the rain chances. Just gamble the way you want and if you reach that 4k then it is fine, if not then do not aim for it.
1422  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bounty Campaign a Sustainable way to grow your Crypto Community? on: February 26, 2022, 08:30:48 AM
Bounty campaign would help projects push or gain popularity which is why many gambling sites run campaign manager to boost their popularity or their reputation. Running bounty campaign requires professional campaign manager to manage campaign which they are professional too in accepting participants that are not spammers or only joining just to earn bucks without thinking that joining just to earn bucks can result in spamming the forum.
But, isn't "sustainable" the problem here. How long are we talking about and how big are we talking about? I mean if you do it for 6 years with 10k dollars per month, you are not going to get that money back quickly enough, it will be probably not great. If you do 10k per month for one year, then you will get enough and then in the long run you will make that back, if you do 1k per month for 3 months then it will be useless and not get enough.

So, what do we mean by sustainable, how long are we looking to exist, forever? Nothing lasts forever, but assuming our "forever" is 50 years, then you could say 5 years is good enough to kickstart it, if you mean 10 years, then 1 year is enough, if you mean just 1 year, then 3 months could be enough. So, sustainability is a bit based on the period we want and if we can calculate how long we want to stay relevant, then we can find the answer to this question.

The big win that manchester city got in the 1st leg of course made their move in the 2nd leg a little safer, but still I think manchester city will field their best squad later in the face of sporting, I think manchester city which is now one step closer to Round big 8 of course will not underestimate sporting in the 2nd leg later.

I think Manchester United task is clearly quite heavy in the 2nd leg later, even though they play at home against Atlético later, I don't think it will be too profitable for Manchester if Rangnick doesn't improve the weak defense at this time, I think Manchester United biggest weakness at this time this is the defense of those who often make silly mistakes.
I would assume that even if they didn't had a big win, they would not be worried against a team like Lisbon. I mean every single week they are beating teams 10x better than Lisbon (at least on paper) and they are not having hard time about it neither. Even, with some miracle they had a tie in that game, I am 100% sure that they would come back and win this one pretty easily.

I feel like they will not even fight that harshly and yet still end up beating them as well. It is going to be quite easy and it is going to be like 2-0 or 3-0 even without the current situation. Cannot say that I will be shocked neither, it is quite easily the most expected thing ever for City.

No reasonable person will disclose his/her seed phrase to anyone,  seed phrase is to be stored anywhere that is best and safe to the user which can be accessible. Normally anyone who is just new cryptocurrency and have wallet must understand how important a seed phrase   is and if it is not save in the proper place anyone can easily have access to it. It is good advice you are giving out ,  
some people have challenge on how to keep seed phrase in a safer place that can be reach anywhere.
Why would anyone even share something like that? I end up writing them to paper and double check it and then delete it from my PC. Think about it for a second, I mean we are talking about not even putting it on my PC so that nobody could hack into my PC. This means I would not even consider a situation like sharing my phrases with someone or anything like that.

I literally do not let people into my PC for fixes via remote access or anything like that. That is the type of situation I am in and I can't consider any other type of person, sure you could have a bit less security but that doesn't involve sharing anything important with anyone.

Bundesliga looks not competitive for Europe competition except have Bayern Munich as always dominance and success get UEFA Champion League trophy last year and the other from Dortmund best achievement success pass to final stage last several year ago. I think with Leipzig still not has good thing talk more on Europe competition and still need how to build Bundesliga participants keep consistent play on UEFA competition next year, champion league left Bayern Munich only and still have Dortmund on UEFA Europe League but looks not have good result on first leg after defeating by Ranger.
I always kept saying that aside from a few years of lucky wins from other teams, Bayern acts as if Bundesliga is their youth setup. They just act as if they play against one team per week and collect data of everyone playing and watch all other games as well of every team, and see whoever is the best, including even managers, and then make acquisitions from those teams.

I keep saying that if Lewa wasn't this awesome, they would get Haaland without a heartbeat. They do not like to spend too much on players but I am sure that they would spend a lot for him. Dude knows Bundesliga, already plays near Lewa level and he is very young as well, could be playing there for 10+ years easily.

Manchester City and Liverpool are battling for the Premier League title. At the same time they are trying to win the Champions League title. Now the team that can stay consistent and maintain form will be successful.
One team is competing to be in the top 4 of the points table. I would like to remove the Tottenham team from this list. They have lost all four of the last five matches. Their very irregular performance. There are qualified teams from them. I think the Wolves and West Ham are stronger than Tottenham.
I would say that City has a better chance to win the UCL because they have not won that yet whereas LFC already won. Which means that they would put all of their resources according to that, even not play their best players to rest them before the UCL games, I mean if they have to of course. Whereas Liverpool would want the league, they won it just recently a year before last, but that is still a proof that they would prefer that. At the end of the day, both teams would want both of them but if they have to pick one then I would assume that this would be the type of approach they would have. Maybe I am wrong but that seems to be how they are approaching so far.
1427  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin failed to fulfill the purpose it was created for ? on: February 24, 2022, 02:08:54 PM
Bitcoin is an alternative to fiat, but not a replacement. Indeed Bitcoin is going to gain massive adoption and there will be lots of people who will be making use of it for transactions, but that wouldn’t mean that it would replace fiat. You have to know that fiat is the conventional currency of every country, and every country must have their own official currency.

Bitcoin is not a currency that belongs to any country at all, so it’s just going to be the internet money as some people do say, and not a currency that would replace anything. No government can control Bitcoin, that is why it is decentralized. It can’t be controlled at all.
The "alternative, not replacement" is something that people do not really understand all that much. It has to be said very carefully and understood by everyone. It is really something that is very very important to people to understand.

There is nothing that can be emphasized enough considering how difficult it is at the current moment because it is not really a questionable thing at the moment. Think of it like this, if we are considering something that is risky like investing into a big amount then we need to know the difference because if you are investing with the hopes that you are going to ned up with bitcoin as main currency then you are going to end up with a big loss for sure, since that won't happen.

Last season Mercedes had a horrible test series, and we all saw how they ended the season. We should not be making these type of predictions from just the look of the cars and even during the test period as well. These are just periods where these teams are finally testing these cars on the track, of course the machines they have back at their factory gives them a certain range of understanding how it will do.

However, without the human interaction and all the other stuff that will be unknown, they may be off a tiny bit and considering a "0.5 second slower car" then aston martin and ferrari deals need to put on hold and we need to wait and just see.
The difference between previous seasons and this season is that we are in a new era of F1 right now. The changes are done by the Liberty group that bought it. Which means that they are actually doing something that is a bit more about making this a bit more profitable.

F1 literally makes billions if you are doing it right, and Liberty media spent billions to get f1 and that means liberty needs to make things like this season at all times. The new drive to survive is coming up as well and that is going to get a lot more people as well. There is the new car type era where we are talking about something that is aimed to make the cars a lot closer to each other, not as much as indycar but still closer.
1429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun alone? how true? on: February 23, 2022, 08:59:47 PM
Many people doubt that the reason is that gambling is for fun, but in fact, in my opinion, quite a lot of people gamble for fun. Especially rich people who do have a very large amount of money, among them there are those who seek pleasure by gambling. In fact, not only rich people gamble for fun, I'm just an ordinary worker who gambles for entertainment, so that I can let go of the problems in my work for a while. Moreover, playing gambling on weekends with friends, it almost becomes my routine once a week. As long as we use cold money when gambling, I don't think it's a problem to lose either. So depending on each person, many also make gambling as a source of income. But because I know the risks of gambling and indeed almost all gambling games depend on our luck to win, so I really have no desire to make gambling as a source of income.
Why will they doubt when that was the real meaning of gambling but if they doubt that simply means that they have another interest in gambling. There are two types of gamblers, one is who play for fun and the other is playing for profit. They belong to the people that play for profit.

You don't need a lot of money to play gambling for fun and you can even play with zero balance because most gambling now offer demo play. Like you, you are poor but you can still enjoy playing a gambling for fun but if you want to, you can also play gambling for profit because you have a job and you can deposit a little more, than what you deposit when you play for fun.

I personally am quite happy to join betfury's current campaign and hope they can benefit greatly from the campaign they are doing now on the forums, promotion in the form of signatures of course has advantages in terms of increasing information about their site and I think this will make many people will get to know them more.
For the issue of token prices, I think it is natural that there is a decline now, because the market is currently in a negative trend, I think not only BFG tokens have an impact on decline bitcoin prices, but even tokens or coins that are in the top 10 list of coinmarketcap are also experiencing this impact and of course we need a little time to see the market recover.
I am sure that they are benefiting from it. Even if it is not like some profitable thing currently right away, it is increasing the brand value and the awareness for their casino at the same time. They could keep changing the banners anyway they see fit and that way they are going to end up with a lot of great returns for sure. That is not something that's terrible for them even if they do not make income from it.

I believe that in the long term there will always be a bit of an issue of "how much given, how much taken" when calculating these things and that means we may never know exactly how much this brings. However the brand recognition it brings is huge for sure.
1431  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Words of advice on: February 23, 2022, 12:01:19 PM
you can be cool even you're not sharing all of the things that are happening to you. It's wise to remain silent with your success but it will eventually make noise.
As it makes a noise, it won't be you that will startle it but it will be the people that are witnessing your success. Cryptos are our wealth and it's the same that others are looking for especially on these times of hardship, you can be a target of them.
Trying to keep silent about your success makes sense in an online world. There are too many beggars that will ask money from you and that is a very bothersome thing and I would understand people trying to avoid that.

I personally do not say how much I own even though I am not rich at all, I am literally poor but if you have 50 bucks then they will come in to ask for that as well, it's that bad. However, they are not the real trouble, the real trouble is the people who will try to hack you, if you have 50 bucks then you will probably not get hacked but at the end of the day there are some situations where you are going to get hackers if you have too much money and I mean like tens of thousands of dollars. Doesn't mean that they will hack you, but at the very least they will try and that is the scary part, if they manage to get it then it is even worse.
1432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: February 23, 2022, 01:46:01 AM
after hearing the news that Garcia might not be able to play in the second LEG against Napoli I was worried that the barca defense would be very weak

Xavi must have a good strategy against Napoli, especially when facing the Napoli strikers who are famous for being very sharp when playing at home
Do not worry, I see them very confident after beating Valencia 1-4. Garcia's sacrifice was rewarded by hat-trick Aubameyang which means their strategy is going well even the next game is the strong team from Serie A. in the last 3 matches Napoli is never won, almost the same with Barcelona but, the last big win brings enough motivation and begin to confidently implement the tiki-taka strategy.
Just because they got a win against Valencia this week doesn't mean that they are suddenly a great team. They are doing fine and I believe that they will do even better but at the end of the day we are talking about Napoli here who is fighting for a title in Serie A this year. So, that means Napoli is still a great team and it will still be a very difficult game for Barcelona.

I wouldn't really give the favourites to any team here, I would say that they are as equals as it gets on this game. If you see one team favoured better than the other than I may end up betting on that team instead. Like I wish one team got 4.00 or higher odds, that would be awesome to wager in that case.
1433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: February 22, 2022, 08:29:37 PM
The teams from 4th to 8th position have a chance of finishing top 4 if any of them can be consistent  from now till the end of the season. And all 5 teams are not really different from each other that is because they lack consistency. I was opting for Tottenham to be in top 4 position by now but they couldn’t take their chances. The same thing happened with Manchester United earlier. So the top 4 positions is still very much an open space and any of those teams can end up there.
I wouldn't say it is as wide as 4th to 8th. The difference between the 4th Manchester United and 8th Spurs is 7 points. Doesn't mean that it can't be closed, obviously it could be closed if you look at it mathematically but at the end of the day we are not really in mathematics when talking about football.

I believe that when you have 7 point difference at this stage of the season, then you will definitely stay above that level. Meaning United will not be 8th, that is for sure, and Spurs won't be 4th as well that is for sure. Could Spurs be 6th or 7th? Sure, that's likely, could United be 5th or 6th? Sure that is likely as well, if one plays great and the other plays horrible then they could be back to back like 5th to 6th instead of 4th to 8th but even that is quite unlikely to happen as well. United seems like they are doing fine enough to finish 4th this year.

This plans are quite good but one can easily forget them while trading i will simply add having all this laid down trading guide infront of your trading desk so that it serves as guide and caution once emotions tries to set in. and having a particular trading spot will be best so your guide will always be in view while trading to avoid doing anything outside your trading plan and tom get a call back when the otherwise creeping into the initial plan
Everyone was once a novice in the market, and they had to work their way up by learning and applying the strategies that they have learnt. That’s the way it works, I don’t think there is anyone that started off as a professional. I can remember the first I started with cryptocurrency I was still working in an office and I had no clue about what crypto trading was all about. But I didn’t rush it, it even took me some months of constant studying to understand how trading works and how to go about it before I started.

Demo trading and Copy trading are different. Demo trading accounts are used for experimenting with the trade market before you start putting in real money. As for copy trading, it’s a type of trading you have to rely on professional traders by copying their every move, and you’re doing this with your real money, it’s not like a demo account, it’s same thing with live trading, the difference is that you’re not the one making the trade, you’re relying on someone else’s decision.
1435  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Some mistakes most people (especially Newbies) about coins and tokens. on: February 22, 2022, 01:26:29 PM
It's true, still an additional knowledge for those that don't know it yet. But there's no issue whether you call it either way as long as you're pointing them out as an altcoin.
True, But on the other hand this knowledge must remain if they really want to be in crypto because of course learning must come from the bottom first before leading to more serious ones.
Yes, I agree with you.
That's what it should be and every learning that everyone takes is a good thing to have. Whether it's a serious thing or not, still it's a gained knowledge that every newbie must have.
There goes the technicalities and there goes the basic ones that you have addressed. It's relatable when we're also there as newbies before.
Learning is important and we shouldn’t skip the basics, they are as much important as the advanced or secondary part of whatever that we are learning.

I believe that lots of newbies wouldn’t know about this, and would need someone to clear them that coins and tokens are two different things in the market, and not the same as most of them would think. That way when they are making a post, they would know which to use, and same thing as when they are reading a post and they see any of the words being used, they would be able to know that both of the words have different meanings.

You forget about the Russian "big brother" - CHINA. The fate of Russia, in fact, depends on the position of China. And if now China decides that it needs Russia, but as a donor of resources or territories, then tomorrow Russia will cease to exist and become a new region of the PRC. Stories about a "strong economy" and the same fabulous "strongest army" of Russia are a myth. The only real threat from the Russian Federation is the remnants of nuclear weapons, everything else is "wearing the clothes of the deceased grandfather", i.e. the USSR
You are forgetting that China is staying away from this war for now because of a reason. If they wanted to get involved then they would have already sent some help to Russia to show their help. However lets assume that they are not right now but they will in case of a sanction, even in that situation do you really think that China would get away with it, without a problem?

Obviously they are going to end up with a big problem because China sells all of the cheap manufactured things to nations with money, all those items are going to Europe and the USA, which means if you remove ALL of Europe and USA from Chinese companies then they won't make enough money and as a nation with 1+ billion people, they really need to handle all of this in order to continue living, even a small problem would equal to another 20+ million people dead famine as well.

After seeing the numbers and how vastly different the odds was between the movies, I decided to watch them all. First of all Belfast is a great movie but it is certainly political and sometimes I do agree with people who say that it is no longer about the best movie and all about the political stance at this point. Secondly do we really need to have that black and white thing anymore? Does it really make it more "artistic"? I do not know man, that doesn't really sound like artistic deal, it was like that back in the day and no longer looks like the deal anymore, why would people use it. And at the end of the day I disagree with the odds and believe that it should have been a lot more closer for sure.
How did you manage to watch all the movies in the first page? I am curious because there are lots of them. Political movies can be good to some viewer but I think this kind of movies are often boycotted because some are offended as its related to political. About the black and white thing your saying, is that a movie?

I recently made a research about them on why old movies often gets a higher rating and that is because the acting are natural and more realistic. What they are doing is not easy because there are no edits and special effects back in time. Yes, it can be considered as an art or a masterpiece. Some people have different taste than ours. We also need to consider it.
1438  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's your luck rate with CMC airdrops on: February 21, 2022, 03:47:18 PM
I often take part in airdrops at CMC but have never won, this is natural because the competition for participants is very tight because the number of participants can reach hundreds of thousands and even now it can reach millions and the percentage is very small even under 0.0001%, and since August 2021 I I've never participated in CMC airdrops because I think winning is getting more and more difficult.
It’s very difficult, and the projects cannot limit the number of people that are participating, because they too, their main aim of doing airdrops is because they want to gather as much users and investors as possible, so they wouldn’t limit the number. If they were limiting the number of those that can register to the number that the airdrops would be enough for, then it would be enough for everyone that has participated.

Since there isn’t any limit, everyone wouldn’t be able to receive the airdrops, just few that will be luckily selected to receive it. Though I have seen one airdrop where they did it based on early birds (those that came first were the ones that received the airdrop).

if you look at it from a few days ago. if you look at this since 2013, then you will see thousands of percent gains from the popular crypto.
do not see the development of prices from a few days or months, buddy. You need to do more extensive research. some circumstances may force people to sell their assets and cause a decline, but it will most likely recover.
In addition, if you look at the daily price movement, you may see a deep decline, or a high increase. however, if you broaden your horizons, then you will see really very high price increases happening year after year.
Since 2013? Better if you start counting from the beginning because some cryptos like btc have started earlier than 2013 and by that date hit they already have significant gains but its not all about gains. Crypto doesn't revolve on one side only but there is also a side where the market turns red. This what OP needs to realize. They listed a couple of coins and a few of it are not really worth it to hold in my opinion.

One of it is of course dogecoin, we all know the story of this coin. I don't wonder why this coin suffer a decline. Another coin that have gone bad is ETH. So, for me, no need to cry for their losses. We only need to worry for btc and cardano.

I write apps for a living.  Someone wanted a crypto one done and they paid me in bitcoin. Living the dream.
Congrats to you and sure feels good especially if you are a Bitcoin enthusiast cos you know you would hold on to it not just only as an asset with value but also as a souvenir because it was gotten as a payment from a development you did. I would take Bitcoin payment any day over fiat, enjoy.
You should do so. I have been accepting Bitcoin as payment for long now. First I started on freelancing platforms, and I was making use of other payment methods like PayPal and payoneer, and the rest of them. The fees that I had to pay in making use of these payment platforms was quite much for me, so I decided to look for other platforms that I would use, and Bitcoin was the only option I had which would be better than any other payment method that I was using as of then.

Although that required me to leave the freelance platform which I was using, so I had to move most of my regular clients from there to making use of Skype and other means to communicate with them and also to deliver their jobs through emails. I had to tell them that I was accepting Bitcoin, and surprisingly a lot of them complied, and started making use of Bitcoin to send payments to me.
