1521  Economy / Gambling / Re: What other gambling sites offers free bitcoins like freebitco on: July 04, 2023, 11:08:03 AM
I would say that Freebitcoin is unique... you won't find similar sites. There are some betting markets, multiply, and people can choose to invest in their FUN token.

List Of Crypto Casinos with The Best Faucets

Faucets are for gambling experience, you won't get rich with faucets.

It's a good list and from my experience wheels at Betfury and BC.Game are interesting (especially at BC for people with a +22 level) and other cool stuff, NeoDice is the one with 3 faucets (one each hour and two daily ones.).
1522  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: July 04, 2023, 07:23:31 AM
I do not know if you posted this to help people or to help yourself. Yes, you are saying people should stop gambling, but in the next paragraph you are posting a link for people to advertise your "steaming" sessions ...where you gamble for fun?  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

If you are serious about reducing gambling addiction, you should provide content that help them to stop gambling... not to encourage them to gamble for fun. (fun gambling is a trigger for people who are addicted to gambling)  Tongue

OP doesn't sound serious to me, probably the post was just a reflection of his mood after busting his balance with some strategy... long losing streaks happen from time to time to all of us.

Those who really want to stop gambling will do so without much drama... it can be hard at first for some people, but as time goes by it will become easier. Only determination and real wish lead to change.
1523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does lottery rewards expire? on: July 03, 2023, 07:10:38 PM
...
Based on the Freebitco.in and I checked it now, it will never get expired.
You can ask this on the casino staff too.
Yes, I also think it depends on the terms of the casino itself. 

At Freebitcoin, like in some other online casinos, winnings get credited instantly. It's online...

But when it's come to offline lotteries and buying tickets it's different. Maybe a month or two ago I saw an article about some German lottery, after 3 years nobody collected the main prize and the money went back into the prize pool. Every big lottery has its own ToS, lottery tickets expire after some time, depending on the country it can be some short or long period of time...

Quick research:
Quote
Do lottery tickets expire UK?
We hope a lucky player comes forward in time but if a valid claim is not received within 180 days (around 6 months) of the draw date, the prize and any interest earned on it will go to benefit National Lottery Projects across the UK.

I just checked, and in my country, it's 60 days:

Quote
The "State Lottery of Serbia" points out that the lucky winner has 60 days to contact them, and if he doesn't, he will lose the "lotto" millions he won.
1524  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How big is your optimism for crypto investment? on: July 03, 2023, 05:39:23 PM
How optimistic are you about crypto investing? If asked so, I would answer very optimistically. I am optimistic about success in crypto. Although until now I have not received benefits that are beyond reason, but I am quite optimistic that someday I will get it.

I think that we have good reasons to be optimistic... just looking at the history of crypto we can see how big things have happened, and this is not the end! In many ways, crypto just started its own story and we will see a lot more. I guess we can say it goes both directions, many good and bad things happen all the time, but generally crypto is advancing and we see new records every once in a while.

So I believe that good days are waiting for crypto, at least some coins and tokens will have a bright future!

1525  Economy / Gambling / Re: Whats happening with Betnomi? on: July 03, 2023, 12:16:42 PM
It will be hard for me to understand that they have money problem. A casino sustaining that much long time has made a lot of money. My best guess is, there are some changes in the management, partners have different opinions in a subject, or they are completely in a transition period to a totally new management.

I feel like this "scheduled maintenance" going on too long... whatever problem they have they could have come out with some notice, keeping all the players in the dark like this is not nice at all, as I already said, especially for people with money there.

Well, I honestly expected them to be online yesterday, but now I'm wondering if we will see them online today or maybe tomorrow... or maybe the day after tomorrow...
1526  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia and others, move to use Yuan instead of dollar. on: July 02, 2023, 06:08:20 PM
I don't think using the yuan instead of the dollar will be as successful. Among other countries, China has temporarily influenced some countries in this regard. China is one of the most commercially successful countries in the world. China is trying to use the yuan to take over the economy. I have heard that some countries have started using the yuan commercially. However, not all countries seem to accept the use of the yuan. The use of the yuan is a political issue. If the political environment eases, the dollar will hold its own value again


In the end, Dollars, Rubles, Euros, Yuans, and all other fiat currencies are almost the same. Replace one shit with another... I don't think it will work fine, at least not for most of us ordinary people. I think we can do better...

The big picture is clear... fiat currencies are made by people who did some horrible things in the past, and they are still doing so many bad things around, why would we still trust them? The fortune of some big countries and players is made on blood. Simple as that...

It's why I like crypto, I think it's the chance that the world needs for a better future.
1527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How is your Gambling Pattern Like? on: July 02, 2023, 04:18:37 PM
"How is your gambling pattern like?"... interesting question, it got me thinking a bit. Smiley

Well, I gamble when I catch some free time... and that can be at any time of the day. Usually, I play slots or some in-house games, and if there are some football games I will probably place a bet or two. I am active in 2-3 casinos, and generally, my playing is pretty much mixed. I get hooked on some games, in the past weeks, I have been playing ELK provider a lot (at BC)... but after some time something else appears and I move to that. So I guess my pattern looks a bit chaotic, but for me, gambling is all about fun and entertainment...
1528  Economy / Gambling / Re: Whats happening with Betnomi? on: July 02, 2023, 02:34:29 PM
Thank you for being so transparent with us.

By the way, the site went under maintenance at 14:50 (GMT +2):


Hopefully, they will come back with a working sportsbook. But it's hard not to worry because there are so many red flags.


It's the same message for me as well now "Sorry we are down...", and this morning I played a few rounds of Farkle without any problems. I guess it's hard to be calm about this, especially if someone has some balance on the site, but I hope everything will be alright.

I don't think it's something serious, Betnomi is around for a long time, they probably have some problems and I guess we will see them online when they fix it.

1529  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Recommend me altcoin to DCA till halving on: July 02, 2023, 08:23:57 AM
I can't recommend you a coin under $100 for DCA. Because if doing DCA I better invest in top coins on coinmarketcap like BTC, BNB, ETH or Ripple. Because what you are doing is not betting or day trading for profit.
It's unfortunate if you DCA a new coin and then you lose a lot of your dollars just because you chose to avoid a $100 coin.

People can diversify their investments... 90% in top coins (coins) and 10% in some new projects. We all know how risky is to invest in new projects, meme coins, and all other coins and tokens around, but we also saw Doge reaching $0.73. So investing a few dollars in some very cheap coins/tokens from time to time can be profitable in years to come.
1530  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I a bad person if I manage to avoid taxes? (Hypothetical question) on: July 01, 2023, 06:54:25 PM
Tax evasion? It is undoubtedly considered illegal by the law, and from the government's perspective, it is a violation. However, we all realize that every government provides an unfair financial governance in certain aspects. That's why many people consider tax avoidance to be something reasonable.
...

I guess it's the bottom line. If we have criminalized government then avoiding taxes doesn't sound like a "big crime"! So in my country "tax evading and other embezzlement schemes are not punished with some big-time jail sentence. People who are caught mostly end up in house arrest and those ankle bracelets. Some of them get in jail when some really big amounts are in question, but after a year or two they are free with all the millions they stole. But it's a "Big League", I guess every country has it...

But when it comes to us "ordinary" people, I pay all my taxes, at least the ones I am aware of. Today it's hard to avoid it... and I can't afford to get into some big trouble with my wife and kids around.

I am not advocating for everyone to avoid taxes. However, I am also one of the individuals who feel somewhat disappointed with the tax system in my country.

I don't wish anyone to think that I am advocating for the same, but I am also disappointed in my country and how they "do it". It's not a lonely example, there are many countries with "fucked up" systems!

So I wouldn't say that OP is a bad person if he manages to avoid taxes... but from experience and all the "life stories" I heard about, not everyone gets away with it. Everyone should be aware of the possible consequences before they decide to go against "the rules".
1531  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 01, 2023, 05:07:09 PM
...
But on the other hand, if you had a 1000 dollars in your gaming account,  and blew it to zero..here anybody would feel they would have done better things with the money than gamble...but again like they say, only game with money you can afford to lose and you won't feel the remorse!!

I think that every gambler feels "I could do it better" after losing any amount. It's automatic, I think we can't stop thinking about the moves we made, we can't stop analyzing.

And do we feel regret after burning the bankroll to zero (hundreds or thousands of dollars) in a short period of time? I think the answer is definitely yes, some of us simply like to win, and after losing there's that little disappointment and remorse! But definitely, that remorse doesn't last long, nor it's a big mood-destroyer if we spent just what we can afford to lose.
1532  Economy / Gambling / Re: BC.Game-🔴🔴🔴BET RED IN CRASH!🔴🔴🔴 Find More Unique Games! on: July 01, 2023, 03:03:21 PM

I guess you are right but many people are still ignorant of simple or terms that they still fail and become victims of their own foolishness, I think I have seen a fair share of many users complain about different betting platform withholding their funds due to one or two reasons but at the end all they are seem to be the ones at fault by violating one or two simple terms put in place by these betting companies.

The problem mainly is that nobody really reads the terms & conditions; personally I just scroll through it very fast also. What I always like to do when I am in doubt (like the use of a VPN or another issue), I would go into livechat and ask about it; that way you are sure that you will not violate any terms.

I never read ToS. I am like BabyGun, I will always turn to live support for all the questions I have... One of the reasons why I don't read ToS is this forum, some members of this forum really have great knowledge and experience regarding gambling in general, and about crypto gambling especially. So, many important questions have already been asked in each ANN topic, and there are also answers from casino representatives.

But when it comes to promotions, giveaways, and similar stuff I always read the terms. Smiley
1533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: (Crypto Games) A revolution in the gaming industry or a passing trend? on: July 01, 2023, 07:26:26 AM
Today I would like to understand and find out your opinion about the real value and potential of crypto games. I am interested to know how much they can change the gaming industry, what challenges and problems are associated with them? Grin

Please be more specific. What do you mean by "crypto games"?

Of course that OP should be a little more specific. I don't think anyone understands what OP really wants to know... about crypto gambling games (he posted in the Gambling section), crypto games where people can earn crypto, or it's crypto games where people can gamble with crypto (there was a Dragon's Tale, who remembers). So people give random answers and it looks like a mess already.

If you are referring to games in a crypto casino, they are actually quite similar to the games offered in traditional fiat casinos. The main difference lies in the form of payment method. In fiat casinos, we use cash as the payment method, whereas in crypto casinos, cryptocurrency is used for transactions.

Yes, there are differences in payment methods, and I think we all know how much easier and simpler it's to gamble online with crypto and not fiat. But besides that, there is also "Provably fair" technology... The outcome of the game (dice, crash, limbo, and all other crypto gambling games) is provable, transparent, and verifiable.

I have a small amount of LTC... and after making a few bets:



I don't think I will last long with my amount... maybe with some big win I could do more, but that doesn't happen as often as I would like.

Rakeback looks cool... something is happening. When we can expect to see some new in-house games? Smiley
1535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Crypto coin Do You Gamble with the Most? on: June 30, 2023, 12:35:24 PM
Back when I was an active gambler I would choose the crypto with lowest fee that the site support or use.
I want to maximize the profit by paying with less fee when withdrawing or play more because of low fee transaction coins.

I still like coins with the lowest fees... Tron, Litecoin, BNB, and f I don't play with BTC then it's one of those 3. Some casinos have the swap option, which is pretty interesting for me, and I use it when I wish to move some money from one casino to another.

Now it's pretty easy to choose any coin for gambling, most casinos have options for different chains, so moving funds from one place to another is cheap and fast. The situation in the past years is much better compared with +5-6 years ago.
1536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ads for online gambling should be banned. on: June 30, 2023, 09:26:38 AM
I think gambling ads should be banned in many places... I think there's a time and place for everything! What's happening in my country now is out of control I think. Gambling ads are literally everywhere at any time.

And how far it goes shows my experience from recently. I was listening to the radio in the car and an advertisement for a big casino started. Music, the sound of coins, some big wins, mention of winnings, bonuses... and so it lasts for 20-30 seconds. After that comes the part "children and under 18 should ignore what they heard"!!! How could someone ignore all of that just like that!? And that's radio, those commercials run all day on many radio stations.

I am not sure if it's true or not, this is from the daily newspaper (tabloid)... but things are getting pretty wild, and that is not good:

Quote
There is a day hospital in Belgrade that is intended for people aged 12 to 18 who suffer from various addiction diseases. Unfortunately, we have a large number of children who are already heavily addicted to gambling, and the youngest patient is only seven years old!

1537  Economy / Gambling / Re: Freebitco.in - FUN Token Investment Experiment on: June 30, 2023, 07:50:17 AM
Before 6 month I invest 462500 satoshi in fun token and today worth 166500 satoshi , not bad investment  Cheesy , token are locked 2 more month. Till now it will probably worth 50 000 satoshi  Grin. Another word I lose all I invest.

Don't look it that way and what you can do is to add another 462500 satoshi if you have the possibility to do so because now that can buy you twice or more the amount that the first 462500 satoshi did.Do not despair as we are all waiting for the next bull run here which most likely if history repeat itself it will be in late 2025,most likely Q4 (we all hope to see it since 2024 it would not be that bad either) and so when that time comes and you have even locked the FUN you will get a bigger number of FUN which I predict it will be at least 100 satoshi each so you and most of us will profit in a real substantial way,so let's wait to see and we will all be happy then,so let's forget what happen with FUN until that time as the best thing to do.

Well, 100 sats would be a great price... and it's possible, but I guess we need to be very patient, this and maybe next year. That gives us a lot of time to add more if we believe in the future of FUN.

In the end, Swogerino is right, there's no need for despair... FUN is not the only token that lost a lot of value in the past months, things don't look good for sure, but it's the bearish period and it's the time for holding and accumulating if it's possible.
1538  Economy / Gambling / Re: Loophole in stopping Money Laundering through Wagering on: June 29, 2023, 05:59:27 PM
Money has been laundered through casinos since there have been casinos... probably not through every casino, there are always exceptions, but I think it's something that has been done for a long time. When I first heard about some major money laundering in EU casinos by Serbians who did illegal stuff there, it was about roulette, a couple of guys play roulette and mostly bet on red or black. If they lose some money, it's the commission, which is always paid, one way or another.

It's a loophole, but I will go with Yahoo on this... 1x is pretty easy to wager, and there are better ways to catch money launderers than this wagering requirements, it's more about casinos making people wagering.
1539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Experienced Winning Bets By Upsets on: June 29, 2023, 10:49:42 AM
Not a lot.

Those are like yolo bets with my last money on some unknown tennis game. I don't bet usually on tennis but it's like a random roulette on which sport I'll bet and I don't even know the player.

It's certainly a yolo bet. It's not also a big money but it was a good experience and that's really possible for someone but I just got lucky that the feeling of winning was felt.

It's the same with me, not a lot... I like your words "Those are like yolo bets with last money", I will try to remember this one. I do that with football, I put the last money on one game or more (depending on the offer at that moment), or I buy some bonus round on some slot with the buy bonus feature. And I had some good hits, I recovered what I lost with a little profit, but that happens maybe once in 10 times, more or less.
1540  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What tips you will give to a new investor to identify scam projects early ? on: June 29, 2023, 04:53:23 AM
You can go into the official website of the project then checked all of the member of the TEAM.
If they don't put the face of the member of TEAM i can guarantee it almost scam project.


It's even funnier when they put pictures of cartoon characters... it screams "scam" right from the start!

Some specific signs that newbies can spot in scam projects early are:

Unrealistic promises of high returns or guaranteed profits
Lack of transparency or verifiable information about the team, the technology, or the roadmap
Fake endorsements from celebrities, influencers, or reputable organizations
High pressure tactics to invest quickly or miss out on a limited opportunity
Poor grammar, spelling, or design on the website, whitepaper, or social media posts


Nice comment... if we notice anything from what you wrote it should trigger the alarm in our head. Most of the scams have unrealistic promises, we can never forget the old one "If it’s too good to be true it probably is”.

So the best tip for new investors is to check everything, literally everything... starting from grammar, website design, WP, roadmap, etc. And if anything raises any suspicion, just turn around and walk away.
