Yes, I agree with @lucifur, you must show some of the work that you have done in your thread so people who are interested in your service may want to hire you for their work. Without samples it would be difficult for others to see that how good is your service and that's why you won't get any clients.

It's always better to show your previous work when you create a thread like this because clients always want to have the best service and they can't decide the best one without seeing the samples of the work the user has already done.
1462  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Avoid trading crypto in real person. You can see this now on Binance. on: November 16, 2023, 01:29:16 AM
I highly agree with OP and I also believe that one should avoid in person trading at any cost. Although, Binance as added it as a way to trade with people who belong to same location where you live but such approach if very risky especially for those area where crime rate is high.

I think it's way better to go with the traditional p2p route where someone can send money to someone else via a bank account or digital bank payments as that one is quite good as compare to in person trading. There should be a caution that "In person trading is a risky thing and one should avoid it at any cost."

P2p trading on Binance is safe for most people who live in areas where crime rate is low, and even in countries where crime rate is higher people can still do online p2p trading without much worries. However, cash trading is quite risky and can be very harmful for the ones who blindly go with that route of trading.
1463  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: First buy Bitcoin as a newbie, good way to start. on: November 16, 2023, 01:19:07 AM
No, I don't think that it's going to be helpful for newbies to purchase Bitcoin without properly learning about it and it's wallets. Most of the newbies purchase Bitcoin directly from exchanges and they don't really know much about custodial wallets and save their Bitcoin on those exchanges wallets.

They don't know that they are not truly the owner of the Bitcoin that they hold in those exchanges because not your keys not your coins is something they aren't aware of properly. It's always better for such people to learn about Bitcoin, personal Bitcoin wallets, saving of private keys and seed phrases, system security if they are going to hold their Bitcoin in software wallets, and some other things before purchasing any Bitcoin.

Once they acquire that necessary knowledge about Bitcoin then they can begin with a short amount of investment into Bitcoin like $20-$50 to learn about personal wallets and the safety of their coins, when they learn those wallets software and safety of their coins then they can invest more into Bitcoin and most probably go with a cold wallet instead of hot wallet.
1464  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Some rich person not interest about bitcoin for following reason on: November 16, 2023, 01:00:41 AM
If someone is not interested in buying Bitcoin even after learning about it then it's far better to let that person do whatever he/she wants to do because we can't force someone to invest in Bitcoin as it's someone own choice whether to go with Bitcoin or not.

Your friend will surely regret about his decisions during the next ATH because he will think that why he didn't invested in it. Just allow him to do whatever he likes to do, don't force him to invest in Bitcoin.
1465  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not get scammed by this, specially newcomers. on: November 15, 2023, 10:14:19 PM
Those people are everywhere in fact they have came up with same fake made up stories on this forum many times where they claimed that they have lost their Bitcoin wallet or they can't recover their Bitcoin wallet which they have made during 2011 or some past dates when mining of Bitcoin was easy and any miner could get Bitcoin easily by mining it. Many people of the forum tried to help them because you know guys at our forum are very helpful. Fortunately everyone who's part of this forum is well aware of such scammers and that's why I always recommend everyone to register at this forum and read some threads here before starting their Bitcoin journey.

Now, the worst they can do is to use same stories on social media sites and with their other alt accounts they pretend to be the experts of Bitcoin recovery. I think it's better to promote awareness against such users and I think you have made a good thread by sharing awareness against such scammers. Only education and awareness can help someone to be protected from such scammers.

I have even seen some recovery guys who promoted their services via social media sites like YouTube, they pretended to be the gurus of Bitcoin recovery and they made videos in so entertaining ways that many people might have trusted them with their own lost Bitcoin recovery after watching those videos. I believe we all as a community have to promote awareness against such people because the users who trust such people might end up loosing their last hope of recovering their lost Bitcoin.
1466  Other / Meta / Re: HOW LONG HAS YOUR ACCOUNT BEEN REGISTERED ON BITCOINTALK? on: November 15, 2023, 04:45:29 PM
Thanks for your opinion, and you are right. But I just wanna know how someone know about Bitcoin and This Forum. Regarding to the Contribution, I think someone has right and business outside the internet, so in some reasons they just have account inactive for years.

Although, your thread isn't necessary at all but still you want to know that how we came to this forum and started learning about Bitcoin then here you go. I visited this forum in 2016 and before that I didn't know anything about Bitcoin but when I registered my account on this forum, I started my journey of learning about Bitcoin and I have learnt almost everything about Bitcoin from this forum. I read the white paper of Bitcoin to get the concept behind creation of it and surely that helped me a lot.

The learning about Bitcoin started from this forum but after that I learnt some good information about Bitcoin from books, YouTube videos, and also from trading. Bitcointalk forum has been a life changer for me because after registering into this forum I gained a lot of skills that are helping me even till this day.

I'm still learning a lot about Bitcoin from the reputed members of the forum who make very good and informative posts about Bitcoin, and at the same time I'm sharing my knowledge and understanding about Bitcoin as a contribution to this forum. I must say that this forum has taught me a lot of things about economics and trading that many people can't even learn in universities. This forum is the best place for anyone who want to learn about Bitcoin and crypto-market. Surely, I won't be able to tell you everything about my journey in this post but I hope it will be helpful for you.

~Snip~
Have I been scammed?

No, you haven't been scammed because Fortune Jack has been active on this forum for long time and their representatives always solves the problems that arise to the users of the site. I hope that you'll also get your solution very soon, but I must say that KYC in initial days is way better then doing KYC for withdrawal purpose because most of the casinos check so many factors before completing the KYC of the users who have deposited money and now they want to withdraw the winnings.

1468  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is King on: November 14, 2023, 11:48:03 PM
Bitcoin is the king of the crypto-market without any doubt because it's the first crypto-coin which was developed by someone who isn't personally known by anyone. The genius Satoshi Nakamoto worked a lot and finally created Bitcoin and after creating it he left this forum when things were okay for Bitcoin and handle it into the hands of the developers who further improved Bitcoin.

I know that there are still those skeptical people who promote fake news about Bitcoin and they don't really know a lot about the crypto market and its king Bitcoin, and that's why due to their arrogance they promote such false things. Bitcoin is the best asset anyone can have and surely the ones who know about it fully will hold it for as long as possible and when it grows to huge values then they can sell it and enjoy rest of their life with financial freedom.

We all know that Bitcoin is the king of the crypto world but we really don't know whom to consider it's queen? Let's say after Bitcoin Ethereum has shown potential growth over the past few years and in that sense we may call it the queen of Bitcoin just for fun. But, still the king is, it was, and it will always be the one and only Bitcoin.
1469  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance Client Executives Kidnapped, Forced to Empty Crypto Wallets on: November 14, 2023, 11:34:44 PM
That can happen to anyone who uses centralized exchanges and surely there is a lot of risk for the ones who use centralized exchanges to store their crypto-currencies. I believe that someone from the internal team might have leaked the data of those executive clients to the robbers, scammers, hackers, and then they have made their proper plans of kidnapping those clients and steal their crypto-currency.

I believe CZ has taken a good step to secure most of the funds of the clients and surely by sharing this he got some free marketing and fame for Binance. It's a good story for us to be careful that letting a lot of your money into a centralized exchange can be risky for your well-being and even letting others know about your crypto portfolio can be a risky thing.
1470  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top Halloween Online Casino Bonus or Promo on: November 13, 2023, 10:14:23 PM
Wether Halloween or any other form of events that is mostly identified for celebration, what the gamblers want is bonus opportunities, they don't mind about the terms and conditions that may follows up but the truth is that they are after having something that will come in form of a bonus irrespective of the season and this is one of the most exciting reasons why the gambling organizations also take such periods of time to launch their own marketing at the cause as well while giving to the gamblers.

You're right the gamblers only want to have the bonuses and they really don't care about any of those events other than grabbing those bonuses. Most of the casinos know that and that's why they offer bonuses during such events because they're sure that many players would love to avail those bonuses and for that they'll deposit money into the casinos.

The ones who are after the bonuses don't really care much about the T&C and the wagering requirements and that's why most of them fail to reach the wagering requirements and lose their deposits. If I'm not wrong then such events give casinos win-win situations because most of the players won't be able to fulfil the requirements and they'll lose their money.

But, I'm quite sure that some casinos offer good bonuses with less strict T&C and the also don't have very high wagering requirements. Those casinos may be very few but surely they exist and a few players can easily reach low wagering requiems and they can earn good profits during such events.
1471  Economy / Gambling / Re: l0tt0.com on: November 13, 2023, 10:08:01 PM
For such things Monero may work better as users can play without any KYC or centralization burden. I also think that lowering of bet is going to be a good thing for players also for the site.
He already lowered minimum bet and I dont think it makes much sense to lower it even more than it is now, that is $0.10.
Adding monero is not bad but suggestion I dont know how many people would be using it on l0tt0 website, he needs to run another node and do additional work for all that.


Well, the lowered minimum bet is surely reduced from the way it was when L0tt0 was initially launched but some players prefer to have even lower bets and that's why I suggested to do it if needed. Of course final decision is on Dewez that whether he reduces it further or not.

Monero is quite good and many players will use it mostly in times when Bitcoin's network is highly congested. During normal network I'm pretty sure that most people will prefer Bitcoin over Monero, but as additional privacy coin Monero works like a charm. Well, I agree with you that additional work is needed to add Monero but surely the results will be rewarding.


In fact I think an altcoin like Monero will also be a good secondary payment solution for the site. As far as I know the OP loves to have a system which works without any KYC restrictions.

I second that Monero would be a suitable addition. I'm not sure what dewez thinks about that.

But no harm having LN too, I think.

Yeah, Monero is quite good but surely LN and Monero both can be implemented in future. As always the final decision will be taken by Dewez, but I'm pretty sure that Monero and LN will make deposits and withdrawals better then the way they are right now. And, especially in the times of network congestion the alternatives will be a good choice of deposit and withdrawals for the players.

 
1472  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as a peer to peer method less popular than as an investment on: November 13, 2023, 08:52:58 PM
To be honest, Satoshi created Bitcoin in intention to get rid of centralized system or at least make a new space where a group of people can send money from one to other without involvement of any third party. His main intention was to create a currency that anyone can use and transfer via p2p route, and surely Satoshi got success with his innovation.

But, later on investors found it a good investment due to its 21 million supply limit and that's why they started accumulating Bitcoin and holding it for longer terms in order to have better returns with their investment. Due to the creative thinking of Satoshi and the investors, Bitcoin has now become a currency as well as an asset which people can invest in and get profits if they hold their investment.

One of the initial testers or you can say inner members of the initial team behind Bitcoin was late Hal Finney(RIP) who speculated that Bitcoin can grow in price and maybe in future a single Bitcoin may reach $10M in value. If we keep those views in picture then surely from the initial days people were sure that Bitcoin can grow in value and it can cross $10k or beyond.

Ah, you're enjoying to fully buddy! Really it's an amazing time for you, for me, and for the ones who love to see the growth of Bitcoin. I still firmly believe that Bitcoin will reach $50k in 2023 and surely it had it get some more good pumps to reach that value.
1475  Other / Meta / Re: So I had a person send me a pm to beg for merits. on: November 12, 2023, 07:53:55 PM
The person did not offer money. They just asked for some free merit.

So a how to report this?

Am I required to report it?



If that person asked you to review his/her posts then that's okay because you can review his/her posts and if they aren't merit worthy then tell him/her directly that his/her posts aren't good enough to receive any merits from you. I don't think that it would make anything good by reporting a person like that who's asking for merits as we know everyone wants to grow their account to max level which is legendary and some newbies who aren't good at posting often make such PM's to get some free merits.

@The Sceptical Chymist offered his post history thread to the members who contribute good information on forum and I'm quite sure he might get so many PM's because of that offer. The legit members who made good contribution on forum might have received some merits from him while the ones with low-quality to no-quality posts didn't quality to get any merits from him.

I recommend you to ignore that message and don't report it but still you want to report that member for merit begging then report that member to a moderator or make a thread in reputation board and share details of the PM with others. But, still I think it's way better to avoid those PM's or those members who ask for merits rather then reporting them.
1476  Other / Meta / Re: its so boring on: November 12, 2023, 07:44:15 PM
seriously, besides the hype its just lactose

lots of random words i dont understand and nothing cool hhappening unless i trust the top posters and get scammed into a new pyramid build

To be serious I don't see any hype but reality and if you're talking about Bitcoin's price and its values then you should learn about it first before calling it hype or something like that. However, if you're talking about something else then you need is to make another post in which you describe that thing in detail. Your current post lacks information and with such limited information no one will be able to know what you're trying to say.

I really can't comprehend that which words you're claiming as random if it's about seed words of a wallet then that makes sense but still I can't understand your post because it lacks information and the questions or the opinion you're trying to share with us isn't clear. Has any poster done something wrong with you? If yes, then you should mention that in detail.
1477  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you know about the first public servant paid in bitcoin ? on: November 12, 2023, 03:07:54 AM
Based on some news I read, Tony got his salary in Bitcoin when its price was $1,181 on the Mt Gox exchange. It's true that back then, the price of Bitcoin had a really big jump, and this event from a decade ago actually made a lot of people talk about Bitcoin. In early January 2013, the price of Bitcoin was about $13, and later in Q4 2013, it reached its highest price at $1,000.

Personally, I'm not a fan of discussions about regrets, like "if you didn't sell coin A a few years ago, you could be a billionaire by now." It's better for people not to dwell on their regrets and focus on the future. Bringing up past experiences that sound like big mistakes is not really ethical.

If Tony got his salary in Bitcoin when its price was at $1,181 then the guy wouldn't be a millionaire or even close to bein a millionaire even if he had hold his Bitcoin for long term. Yeah, the exception is going to be that if he has got his salary in Bitcoin when Bitcoin's value was still below $30 per coin. He would definitely be somewhat rich these days if he had received his salary when Bitcoin was priced $30 or below and and if he still hold that salary.

I also don't like past regrets because the past is gone and regrets will make someone more mentally depressed rather than helping him/her in any positive way. It's always better to forget the past and thing about the present and future because past is gone is regretting about the gone things is worst type of damage one can give himself/herself.
1478  Other / Off-topic / Re: VPN Issues and Solutions: Sharing Experiences and Advice on: November 12, 2023, 02:58:58 AM
Well, any VPN when connected to a server is logically changing the geolocation of the user who is using that VPN. I believe that any free VPN available on Chrome web store will do the job for you. I recommend you to just switch to a different VPN and check if the geolocation changes or not. If it remains the same then there's another problem not a VPN related problem but if it changes then that's a VPN problem which gets solved with the change.
1479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcin does not support financial crimes and is not involve in political affairs on: November 12, 2023, 01:34:08 AM
Maybe we should start first by asking more about those who inbox you, how did they get you, how did they know you're a bitcoiner, this is what we should first considers right before going deep into what the content says, people are free to use money for any reason they like but not for financial crimes, yet people steal money, scam other ones and we cannot do anything about it than we should try as much as possible in educating them about how to safely get secured from hackers or scammers.

I guess that's going to be helpful because the OP didn't mentioned that how he received the mail and from whom did he received that mail. I don't think that such allegations are any new in the sphere of Bitcoin and those type of allegations against Bitcoin will take place every here and there.

I remember that during the times of Russia-Ukraine war such type of false allegations against Bitcoin were raised and now those same people are again raising such allegations to defame Bitcoin. Their main point is to show that Bitcoin is used for crime activities but they never show the truth that fiat and other payment systems are also used for crime activities.

Bitcoin is a payment system and it depends on the users who are part of the payment system. They get their own personal wallets and from those wallets they can send their Bitcoin to anyone they want. Criminals or even laymen can have their Bitcoin wallets and people can have literally millions of wallets without any restrictions. Bitcoin is for everyone, and it is on the mentality of someone that how he/she uses it.

Welcome to the forum and I hope you'll get some good players for your site from here. I recommend you to launch a signature campaign in order to get proper exposure, and additionally you can also launch a review campaign to get some feedback about your platform. The proper marketing is needed to have new players on your platform and this forum is the best place for such marketing.

Your site looks good and I believe it will offer some good services to the members of the forum and surely it's always better to have a announcement thread with proper graphics. The in-house poker sounds great to me, and if international players are allowed to play the poker then that would be a nice thing I guess.
