~snip~
Flawless withdrawal processes are truly a gift to have when you join a gambling platform as a new member. Most of the casinos that are old wouldn't really make it a tiring process and even if there is a KYC requirement, it will be pretty smooth if you go through it with the guidance provided and give them what they asked you for without any hesitation.

But, when it comes to new casinos, it sometimes becomes a headache and you get tired of all the retries only to verify yourself if they ask for KYC before a withdrawal, you are probably in luck if their support team is friendly and quick to respond.

I think that's probably the hardest hurdle for a legit new casino. And also probably one of the tools new shady casinos use to keep your money in their platform.

If it's smooth, then people will keep coming back, even if it's new.

What I noticed in old casinos is that they are straight-forward, like you need KYC before withdrawing, and there is no false advertisement just to attract the attention of the gamblers, unlike in the new one where they say that there are no KYC, but the hidden fact is that there are no KYC when signing up, but when withdrawing funds there are. All of us really want smooth transactions like the same how smooth to deposit in their platform

For sure, one of the reasons for this is because of the inflation or recession in the world. Casinos are not exempt from this, but we really don't know the real reason behind it. But for sure, they just cut losses to give way to another event. or there is a decline in the profit at a specific casino, and if they do not cut the cost for sure, they go bankrupt.
1523  Economy / Economics / Re: Without government job we can survive on: April 24, 2023, 09:56:18 AM
The government is very important to everyone because it can provide jobs to every person under its jurisdiction. They also implement laws that will give importance to every worker. Without government the country will not have jobs and their development will be weakened without it.

This is absolutely true, no country can exist without a government. Many people always pretend that they can live without the government, which is foolish thinking when their own safety is being guaranteed by the government. They cannot do business and have a peaceful life without theft, murder, and robbery without government protection.
That's why, everything has no destiny as long as there is no government. You are right that when there is no government there will be more exploitative businessmen and criminals who will make the country more difficult.The government and the workers (jobs, businesses) are in a cycle because they both benefit from each other.


Just imagine if there are no government, who will fund and build roads? Who will support us when there are typoons or other catastrophic events and many more. Even though we are sometimes criticising our government they also big roles in our world or in our place but again nobody is perfect that is why we criticize them but for sure it is in our own good only if the decision was made from not corrupt people
1524  Economy / Economics / Re: How do feels losing money? on: April 24, 2023, 08:44:29 AM
I feel what happened to you, when I first got into cryptocurrencies I'm also a victim of ponzi schemes in many times. I was so quick to believe in the promise that can be obtained by investing in them. It's not a huge amount that was lost, but it's still the essence of my hard work, so I'm very sorry. Now before i go in investing, first study the company that i want to invest , see if they have a great reputation and if they have proven things. But we know that they are good at making people smell good to attract a bite in their trap.

The best thing to do now is to study different investments such as staking, mining and many more . Remember always be careful and think twice before investing.



Any company can disappear or go bankrupt-even one with a long-standing excellent reputation. Some companies purposely create a great ephemeral reputation in order to disappear after raising a huge amount of money. Losing money is part of life, and you shouldn't dwell on it too much. You should try to find a positive even in this extremely unpleasant event.

But it will be better and less mistakes in your planning to invest if this approach is taken. We know that most of the new budding companies are just making their names good for the audience to attract. Even so, if we lose the investment we entered, you are right to just be positive and look for other investments and any business to get back on our loss.

It is okay to feel your losses in a day or two, but we need to make sure to learn what was the mistake we made that caused us to lose that, like scrutinize it and learn from it, then move on and then proceed to another investment so that we can cope with the losses and try to evade those mistakes. Also, it is really useless if you just stuck on thinking about your losses and not planning to move forward to retake your losses, which is why you need to learn to accept those losses.
1525  Economy / Economics / Re: it's so risky! on: April 24, 2023, 06:43:09 AM
I don't invest money easily in any asset because of fear of losing that money. i think of investing 80% of total savings.
do taking risk is important or not?

please quote all question and answer it's very helpful for me and others.

as long as you can take it if that investment loses. We know it has risk, and we also know the profit on it, which means we are both aware that if we are able to endure the happiness of getting the profit we expected, we should also expect the losses that will happen to it. I know that you are still having doubts right now, but if you are not ready to invest, then don't. It is your own money, and you can do everything with it.
1526  Economy / Economics / Re: Living ones life on assumption and promises on: April 24, 2023, 05:03:26 AM

Similar stuff happened to me when I spend my finance school fee believing my salary will be paid in two days time but was shocked after the salary was prosponed due to some reasons. The school fee was needed urgently and this put me into serious issues but thanks to my friends who bailed me out. This same issue has happened to us once or twice in our journey of life.


You cant really predict the outcome i mean this really happens to me everytime that you paid something and thinking that you'll get salary on that day but turns out not, so this assumption that you need to have like emergency funds , meaning if that day you will not get a salary you should have a money that can last you in a day or 2 just to be safe because if you dont have money on that day for sure you have nothing to eat.
1527  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: April 22, 2023, 04:29:12 PM
Have you heard of Superpicks on DSTV? where you can make predictions and win money without staking your money?

if you have not, check it out. Superpicks.com

My question is can it still be called gambling if it is not played with money?
If you get money it is gambling i think. Even if you don`t spend your money. But when you don`t risk your money, you feel other emotions. Without risk it is to easy to bet but the same time it is dull enough, when you lose nothing. I make sometimes such predictions for free - it really dull without risk and it doesn`t matter shall i get money for it or not.

When you get used to gambling everything is exciting when it involves to betting because you wont get challenged when there are no betting takes place. Even just watching a fight like boxing it is not that exciting like without you betting on the fighter. I think this is the reason why people got addicted to it meaning they wont enjoy a game without gambling
1528  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is Bitcoin always affected on: April 22, 2023, 03:33:14 PM
Bitcoin is an asset that is easily affected by various issues, for example if there is an issue where the company or bitcoin owner sells bitcoin it will make a big impact, namely the price will go down, or vice versa if there is a big purchase plan then the price will go up.

this only applies to the company that holding big Bitcoin like they can affect price but right now we call it whale on which  we always think that they control the price which the Truth is that they haven't. Mostly the reasons why Bitcoin was affected is that if there are economic crisis like inflation or banks going to bunckrupt it is because when there catastrophe like this people are also hard time in bitcoin
1529  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think China is playing a double game? on: April 22, 2023, 02:00:15 PM
China is definitely playing double game! Not just on crypto but on many other aspects as well. Allowing Hong Kong to host crypto related business is a part of their ambitious gameplan. They are cashing in while US is showing signs of strengthening it's grips over crypto market. It's clear as broad daylight.

But I really don't understand US. They are allowing crypto companies to operate and allowing listing on stock exchanges. At the same time, giving enforcement agencies a freehand to act against them.

I definitely don't believe crypto will explode in China. Take it from a Tronholder.

BTW. It could be really large even it's microscopic.

It is difficult to know what will happen in the future. China is notoriously greedy and unpredictable, so I wouldn't be surprised if they one day reverse the bitcoin ban to accept bitcoin and encourage people to invest in it. What they're doing is trying to be the number one economy in the world so they'll do whatever works for them.

That is also my thoughts because they are very unpredictable which when they opposed their first decision and then they will become successful. What i am worried about is that they will got affected imean if we wont follow what they want we will get affected. We know that china is the number one manufacturer in the world what will happen if they will opposed to everyone like in US what will happen. We know that they have plans on Taiwan
1530  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you want bitcoin to stay? on: April 22, 2023, 01:13:15 PM
Bitcoin has the potential to stay, because is a digital currency which many company and individual uses bitcoin as a means of payment, and is world best transaction so far and more secure in the ecosystem, Therefore Bitcoin has come to stay in financial system solution.

But there are still business that wont accept it and i think this is only relevant to the company or business that accept bitcoin as their payment method. For sure all of us are just into bitcoin because of profit and the financial freedom that we have. Even my self it supports me on my wants i can buy it because of bitcoin because my salary is for our daily needs but i do transact also on this by sending and receiving
1531  Economy / Economics / Re: SPENDING MORE THAN YOU EARN on: April 22, 2023, 06:05:29 AM
👉👉Learn to say “no”
Not all goods worth buying at the moment. Although ads may be tempting but one should learn to go off any unnecessary items.
That 2 letters I can't handle it until today. Yes, I don't know others, but for me, if I open an online shop application, I always put what I look in the shopping cart. This looks crazy, sometimes I bought something and I never open that box package until today. I've been scolded by my brother. and, when I'm not around, he uninstalls the online application shop on my phone to avoid me to buy unnecessary goods. so after he doing that, I had a big fight with him because in my phone have bitcoin wallet.

Now, I try to bold those 2 letters, in my phone wallpaper, maybe can remind me for not wasteful.
this 2 letters apply to everything not only to crypto or investments and money. saying no is a testament that you can decide for yourself. saying no isn't only for the sake of saying ni since you need enough courage to say that and apply that.

But saying no is difficult. If ever we can practice to say no like when we want to buy our wants we should always think twice if it is worth it if not then it is the best to say no. I do agree that this apply in almost everything when it comes to spending but the problem with this is that it is difficult to do which we should practice it in our daily life like in spending nonsense things
1532  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: April 22, 2023, 03:30:20 AM
In my opinion.

Everything you do, activity and other think on the casino are gambling. You're not gambling now, but there has some chance you are gonna to gambling soon in the future. The temptation are high, If you are stay on gambling sector.

So, I call it gambling. It's promotion, you get free money soon you're losing then are gonna triggered you to deposit.
For me, the only reason why you call it gambling is because you are gambling an amount that you may lose or win in the end. If there’s no money waiting as a reward, or any thing that has a value, I don’t think it can be considered gambling. Though we may say everything we do that is uncertain can be called gambling, but gambling in casinos is a different thing, it comes with rewards or losses in the end.
When money involved it turns to be real gambling. When we play without money, then it turns to be a game same as that we play on our smartphone. When we play with money we have different experience and when we play without money we have fun moment as our mind will be free to play as the outcome doesn't affect us in any means.

It is like watching a sport like the NBA: if you just watch it for fun, then it is not that exciting, but if it involves gambling, like betting on the team, then every quarter you get excited, nervous, and mixed emotions. Also, it is not just money but also stuff like betting on your car or motorcycle. As long as there is something in exchange, that is gambling, but if there is no money or stuff involved, I think it is just a normal game, and just the words of both of you and your opponent are that reward.
1533  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is money ruling the world? on: April 22, 2023, 02:40:16 AM
Money is not ruling the world per day, power is what is ruling the world, though money is good, money is powerful, but the irony here is that, it takes some level of money to acquire or get power, but once power is earned, it rules over money.

Take the president of a country as an example, there are many people/citizens of the country that are way richer than the president go that country, but still, this rich men will have no other choice than to obey and do whatever the president says, This is power over money.


President has already got power when you get it, but there are, let's say, wealthy people that can dodge the enforcement because they pay them; people can't touch them because they are wealthy and have someone that can make you suffer; and lastly, they can do things that you can't. The power is not only about controlling things but also about having things; they have the power to easily buy that stuff, and you will take more time before you can buy it.
1534  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The fall of crypto influencers. on: April 22, 2023, 01:50:13 AM
Every time I see an influencer online who is not known in the crypto world, on their first sentence, I laugh at them because they are trying hard. For sure, they are just saying it because they are paid, and also, those comments on their videos were alarming because a lot of people would jump into it, but right now people are mostly aware and those influences are mostly getting bashed, and unlike before, when it was rampant in social media, right now it is only a few of them.
1535  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never Trade on Emotions on: April 22, 2023, 01:03:20 AM
Trading with emotions as a trader is wrong,  it won't yield to any result. Trading with emotions is just as a revenge to gain back money that was loss. Trading needs to be done with a clear mind that is positive,  trading with with emotions has exceed just trading.  At this point trading it is no longer called trading but gambling just  to  obtain profits at all cost.  If  people have the real understanding of trading I don't think they will choose or make decisions to trade in emotions.

It is impossible to trade without emotions, because a human being is not a robot. It is impossible to control all your actions all the time, otherwise you will get "emotional burnout" or overstrain, as a result of which you will make a mistake anyway. You yourself experience emotions while trading, don't you? Most likely, yes. If you want to trade without emotion, set up a trading bot.

You have a point but it doesn't mean that you will control it always , there are really times that you've got panic but what it meant is that dont get carried away of being panic like you well sell of as the price goes down. We are human we have emotions but it shouldn't affect our trading style and strategies as this could lead to losses. It is like in our daily job if we got angry if we dont control our emotions we could punch our boss right ?

1537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you want bitcoin to stay? on: April 21, 2023, 03:51:28 PM
I hope I am still alive in the next 100 years to see how the government reacts to bitcoin, but anyways, for sure people stayed because of profit, because now a days people use bitcoin as an advantage to gain profit, even though it is very volatile. There are only a few that use it for transactions as it is known for its high price, but if ever I do have a business, I will use it to transact and at the same time as an investment.
1538  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if BTC won't see ATH again? on: April 21, 2023, 01:19:33 PM
Then we have nothing to do with it because first Bitcoin was made just for us to send/recieve or transact with it , this was not made as an investment it was just the price goes up. That is why always invest what you can afford to lose but for now it is not that possible because first there will be halving next year and the mass adoption of bitcoin is increasing per year so the price is no where to go.

I dont play poker but ive been playing with chatGPT and what is the capabilities on this, the computation between what is the best play on the situation like what are my probability of winning and what are the possible cards of the opponent could be calculated easily. I don't really see as of the moment the use of chatGPT in gambling games only its prediction capabilities but not sure in the upcoming months as the OpenAI is putting some addons and now a lot of developers using its API but lets see
1540  Economy / Economics / Re: Lending money or damaging family bond ? on: April 21, 2023, 09:39:00 AM
Instead of hostility between families, it is better to avoid giving debt or loans to anyone in your family if they are not the ones who want to pay for it.
Another solution that can avoid this is by giving rewards to families in need by not expecting payment from them if you are a better person financially.
in this way, in my opinion, you will look like a person who contributes to your family. i think so

You are right, giving debt or loan within foamily if you can endure the lose which you gave them in loan of debt then you can otherwise if you can't endure then it is better not to keep money relation with family. Most of the time what happen in money relation with family like there in a joke ''give me a loan then leave me alone''  i always keep distance with such lazy people who ask money again again to fulfill their small needs instead of working.  

If you relatives is a true family if you decline on what they want they will understand. I do always lend my relatives if they need money but for those relatives that dont know how to pay it is i always decline and saying i dont have money. as long as you can explain to them your situation they will understand but again if you have a lot of extra money and they just need small one it is better to lend it to them but just expect that you just gave it to them
