It can be martingale strategy or anti martingale strategy, the win happens if you are lucky. I've tried with martingale strategy and have lost good sum of bitcoin. Haven't tried with the anti martingale strategy, with gambling we try to experience win. When things didn't work surely we'll loss patience and one such scenario could end the success of these strategies.
1422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambing Halal or Haram According to Jewish Or Christian Faith? on: December 11, 2022, 09:17:50 AM
In Christianity gambling is wrong as it opposes the bible's teaching. If you look at 1 Timothy 6:10 "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils". As our preacher explains gambling leads you to be greedy. It can be associated with one's compulsion in gambling, or gambling addiction.
These are connections and it doesn't indicate gambling. Money is the root for all evils, because when people go behind money they get involved in all things that shouldn't be done. The verse from the book of Timothy fits for everything.

In John 2:16, going over to the people who sold doves, he told them, “Get these things out of here. Stop turning my Father’s house into a marketplace!” Does that mean he's against trading.

I don't have an unexpected it when talking about an underdog team.

This world cup already had a lot of surprises for us, and Morocco was the hero bet today, I play them in a betslip with France and get a nice x5. Is creasy to see them as the underdog to win the world cup, that bet is an x10 on this point. And if that happens I would not be surprised at all.

Go for the underdogs is the best way to win in this world cup  Grin

Haha true that, Underdogs have been brilliant this world cup. However lot of them got screened out in quarters but Morocco is the only one still going strong. I am totally rooting for them to reach to the finals at least. Now that I see that France is their next opponent, I kinda feel they have to go slightly overboard now as compared to other opponents they have faced till now. It's gonna be a very good game for sure.
Croatia to had the same scenario. In the match against Brazil it played the best to stand equal to it and finally won through the penalty. Anyhow here Croatia is the underdog and won the match. In the match between Argentina and Netherlands, it is Netherlands and here the same scenario of penalty decided the match. Every match have favoured to the underdog. In the upcoming matches too similar things could happen.

Diversification is essential, although bitcoin can yield huge returns, there is no guarantee that bitcoin will continue to appreciate in the future. And if investing in gold, it is true that it will be much safer than bitcoin, but the return it brings is negligible so it is not a perfect choice. But if we know how to diversify, take advantage of profits from bitcoin and the safety of gold, our investment is both safe and profitable. Diversification is something that should not be overlooked in investing.

So you are saying to invest anywhere but not in banks. Grin Aside from gold, we can also look at stocks and see which one is profitable in the long run.  Precious metal investment is good but their value inflation is too slow.   Why not study the cryptocurrency market and get well-versed in it.  Use the money to invest in the short term, medium-term, and long-term.  That way we have a variation of investment and possibly will give us a better return than investing in gold.
Aside from Bank we've got good number of investment opportunities. It is our responsibility to learn about the opportunity, analyse it and proceed further. With cryptocurrency we have the higher risk and to the level of risk we've got the chance of making profit. For now it is time to increase the holding amidst the market situation, so that in the long run the same will give back good return.

This was undoubtedly Cristiano Ronaldo's last World Cup. For the second time that Ronaldo had been on the bench, this was big mistake. He was the leader of this team above all else. I think Portugal Coach should resing as soon as possible because of this fatal mistake. By the way This is the first time in history that an African team has advanced from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals of the World Cup. Morocco has played very well, Congrats Morocco.
Small African nation getting into the finals representing the entire African continent gives them the pride and receives complete support. Though it was Portugal vs Morocco, the team had good support on the ground from its audience. With big crowd supporting from the outside, it is time for Morocco to make its progress further to the Finals.

AI isn't necessary for the purpose of sports betting. My understanding the AI will make its selection based on the data it have grabbed from the different users. Just think of the scenario, Morocco vs Portugal. Majority favoured Portugal to win the match and the result came in the opposite way. The pick of AI based one will be the same. So, human prediction will be better than the AI based ones.
1427  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 10, 2022, 11:49:41 PM
Well, another bet that unfortunately I lost.
I bet that Portugal would easily win against Morocco, but unfortunately that didn't happen.
France and England had an interesting and competitive game, but the French team got the upper hand and managed to advance to the semi-finals.
My question is, will Morocco play inspired and motivated against France and manage to advance to the finals? Will Croatia beat Argentina?
will this actually happen? this is my question!
What a great win for Morocco. This is the first time Morocco has qualified for the semi-finals. On the other hand, Portugal lost and Cristiano Ronaldo is out of the World Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo will not be seen playing for Portugal.
I used to see people supporting Neymar, Ronaldo, Messi and different other players and making big boards in my locality. Often used to see videos posted by them portraying the games played by them. For some reason all were in disappointment and only the Argentina fans are with a happy mind. Lets see what happens further, because talking of the past not gonna bring back the teams.

I agree with OP. Whatever is happening with BTC now, it is only a temporary phenomenon. In any case, its key idea will live, expand and develop.

The dips, dumps and pumps are all just part of the volatility of Bitcoin, as long as Bitcoin has not been adopted fully yet. But as you said, it is only a temporary phenomenon which will resolve itself without doubt. It is not happening for the first time and not for the last time. This is engrained deeply in the very nature of Bitcoin itself. Thats why I hodl and trust Bitcoin. Cheesy



There are bear and bull markets since the start of bitcoin from 2009 and this in nothing new for bitcoin. What we need to learn is not to become extra excited seeing new all time highs and not to become extra fearful seeing bitcoin price dumping to 70 to 80% in each cycle.

The people who are in this crypto market for a few years know that overall the bitcoin future is bright however, there may be up and down phases along the way.
Bear and bull market were part of the real market. I've seen large number of people expecting the market to be in a manipulated way providing with continued growth and development. This is unfair, and against the reality. Moving along with the market is the right way to be good with cryptocurrency than making wild predictions that let people miss opportunities.

I thought that the game was over after watching Messi's penalty goal also. However Weghorst's entering the game has changed many things for Netherlands. They have started to play a more direct football. They are trying to whip crosses whenever they find a chance. One of these attempts really worked as Weghorst scored by a really great header. In these minutes they are trying their best to score another. van Dijk has also started to take risks and support the team on the front.

But despite all this effort I still think Argentina won't let an equalizer come in the remaining time period. Messi really deserves the semi final now after this very impressive performance. His assist was just lovely by the way.
now the players are aggressive and hitting like crazy -  ohhhh My GOd 101 min and NED has scored another goal
IF the match is going to you never know what is going to happen ARG so say on the goal . . the match is a tie and will be decided on the penalty shoot out
OMG, each and every match is getting to be very interesting. What a comeback from Netherlands, it is unbelievable and now the match is gonna be win for Netherlands. I've chosen it based on the previous match results out of penalty shoot in which every small team have won and moved to the next round.

After taking 12 wickets 282 runs of Australia on first day Pakistan is all set to bat now . Pakistan scored 107 runs 2 wickets gone and Is going on full swing ,Babar Azam is very much in form.  I think this test  will go in favour of Pakistan.
Pakistan balling was outstanding today and they surprised us with that now we will see either it's the pitch or ballers who made  this possible.
Abrar Ahmed who is making his debut took 7 wickets and it is not because of the pitch but he surprised the England batsman with his spell and another spinner playing his second Test took the rest of the wickets. If it was all about the pitch, England would have done that to Pakistan. So the advantage here is for Pakistan and if they are able to score a good first innings lead that would change the match upside down.
Pakistan have got the highest winning chance against England. As said scoring good runs in the first innings and making some magic of taking wickets by the debut and the rest of the bowlers will increase the winning chance. In the second innings England might come-up with a striking batting than a defending way of play. Lets see, the first innings end will give almost clear data on the result of the match.
1431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 09, 2022, 08:59:10 PM
Netherlands 0 vs Argentina 2.


Lionel Messi has doubled the lead for Argentina as he converted the penalty kick to a goal, it's 15 minutes before the end of the game based on the time of this post and Argentina is comfortable right now because it will be very difficult for the Netherlands to equalize the goals because time is no longer on their time and they are yet to make a goal attempt since the beginning of the game even till this very
 moment so I think Argenyina has made it to the semi-finals.


Do you think Argentina will make it to the finals with this performance?
NED now 1 - ARG 2 its approx 86 min to the game.
NED players are getting yellow card over yellow cards now the game is heating up =
NED players are so aggressive now
Match after the goal from Messi have made Argentina lead the match 2-0. The agressive play from Netherlands have made them score a goal and it was 2-1. This is going to be a win for Argentina. However Netherlands have played the best, because majority predicted this to be an easy win for Argentina and the reality is different.

The Bitcoin company benefits directly out of the plan using the excess energy generated. It indirectly helps the common people while paying the electricity bills. Anyhow this is something good to use the unused electricity. Few months back this was into discussion, and I didn't expect a fast progress on the same in short time period. When more countries are banning cryptocurrency mining, there are countries to welcome. This shows the network won't get disturbed, as there'll be someone to pickup when one drops out of mining.
1433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My concern of security when using casino houses. on: December 08, 2022, 10:46:35 PM
To avoid being hacked when playing on an online casino, we must enable our 2fa's. If possible use more than one 2fa's. On some gambling sites they let you add your mobile number other than your email address.

To avoid getting phished, we must bookmark the original gambling sites that we are using and always click on that link wherever you visit them and not by typing the name of that site in a search engine.

Now for the offline casinos, make sure to play only in casinos that has security guards on them and cctv's because there's also casino which don't have this. We can also bring a company with us E.g our friends and love ones.

Final thoughts: Just enjoy every session and don't over think about the worse that can happen.
With online casinos, 2FA adds more security. When the platform is trusted, automatically we can see big attempt to trap the users with phishing sites. Being cautious to enter through the URL and bookmarking the right URL could prevent this. In the past these kind of approach were done with the exchanges. Now the focus have turned towards gambling sites as there is increase in the launch of new sites.

Nowadays offline casinos have got the best security system that watch the activities of each and every user coming and leaving the casino. For this reason, as suggested it is good to enjoy gambling than over thinking about it.

Whenever similar things have happened in the large scale, bitcoin have marched towards new ath.

India lost  their 8wickets I think the match is slowly going to get tougher for India. And I don't thing that India has any good batsman other than Rohit Sharma who can win India. Current situation is India is underpressure their require run rate is over 10.7 and their current run rate is about 5. If Bangladesh can take Rohit Sharma's wicket then Bangladesh can win this match.
I am also agree with you in this point that it is in deed for Bangladesh to take Rohit Sharma's wicket otherwise I think Rohit Sharma has the ability to take over India from this pressure. Already he makes a lots of run from the previous over. They have more 12 ball and need 40 Run I think Now Bangladesh just need few dot balls and Rohit Sharma's wicket then I think Bangladesh win is sure and with that they will win the series.
Rohit Sharma played an awesome innings scoring 51 runs of 28 balls at the right time. On the other side the players were to withstand wicket and was not in a situation to score runs. At the end series win for Bangladesh after the 5 runs win. Bangladesh will enjoy the win in a different way giving holiday to the entire nation. Smiley

Never expected Bangladesh to make India struggle consistently in ODIs in this manner. Also, Rohit getting injured is definitely a setback and I hope his finger is fine.
Bangladesh have a much higher winnings percentage at home than any other team in the world and that says a lot of their performance especially Mehidy Miraz with his two undefeated knocks that took the game away from India and in this match it is not going to be any different as India already lost 7 wickets and the chances are really low to win from this situation.
Mehidy played an awesome innings that made Bangladesh reach good target. From the start of the innings India struggled and the performance from Iyer gave a comeback into the match amidst the pressure of winning the match to level the series. Once after the wicket, it is Axar Patel who played to his ability and now everything have gone into the hands of Bangladesh. Big series win for Bangladesh to come in few overs time.
1437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will not become the world currency. on: December 06, 2022, 11:20:12 PM
Bitcoin is more an investor's tool than a currency, and that's why some countries call it a digital asset. it wasn't made to be a daily-use coin. And even satoshi mentioned, Bitcoin will be worth a lot of money or zero, which were the two possible ways.

The main problem with bitcoin as a daily-use coin is the fees, if we want to buy a soda or something cheap, doesn't worth to pay the fees while they cost almost the same amount than the soda.

Yeah, it was never intended nor being created to replace fiat and would kick it out into its current position.It was really just made for the sake on making out transactions without 3rd party involvement, which surprisingly
ended up on having a good value since the community do able to see the relevance when it comes into its utility.It is really just people are way too optimistic on what they do currently saw about Bitcoin.
Bitcoin would really remain out as an alternative and wont become the main currency we do have.People should really not really expect nor hopeful that much on what are the things that they do have
in mind.So that it wont really make frustrate them when it comes for these things not to happen.
It is developed in such a way to eliminate the middle man as well as set as to serve as an alternate to the traditional fiat system. More of its usage is connected with gambling and illegal activities. Now slowly things have changed and people prioritise for investment and on daily needs. The fee is always a concern on day to day usage, but for products of higher price it is worth it.
1438  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One Month of Accepting Bitcoin for Payment on: December 06, 2022, 11:14:24 PM
Man, that's a lot of customers in such a short time -- they come and ask because of your Bitcoin sign or you talk to them about it? Because that's some amazing numbers, no other way to describe it, considering you're not advertising digitally for a digital payment method.


Exactly what I thought, 13 costumers in a month is almost 1 costumer paying with cryptocurrency every two days during 30 days.
It leads me to assume OP is from a country which Bitcoin and other cryptos are widely used to ease whatever economical frictions must be going on there.

My country has quite considerable volume in the region (mostly exchanges and stablecoins) and yet I doubt merchants who accept Bitcoin are able to get similar numbers as OP.

It looks like OP is perfectly doing the best. Bitcoin acceptance into the business keeps increasing with time. Everywhere we cannot expect the same level of business, because the acceptance level is not the same around the world. In my country too we don't have much of stores and people prioritise it for trading and as investment.

One of the old exchange. I've used it in the past when there were not much of exchanges available for trading. During those days majority of the coins rewarded for bounties gets listed on yobit. Later this slowly lost its trust and it's been a long using the exchange. I'm not sure how good is the exchange at present.

In my country the give have taxed cryptocurrency as 30% and hasn't mentioned anything about its stand on the legality. People have come to a conclusion, anything that is being taxed is considered as acceptance. In this regard people are making use of cryptocurrencies.

On the other side the government have launched the CBDC which is under trails. The government wants the people to be under their control and keep away cryptocurrencies. Many measures have been taken, yet things aren't working as the expectancy of the government. It is the people who decide what to be done amidst the announcements.
